-1 giant idiot

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

I know I plurked about it, so this might not be too surprising to anyone who saw that, but I think it's time for Cobra Commander to go back to the endless string of defeats that make up his everyday life back home.

I think all in all, he had a pretty good run here. I mean I can definitely say that way back when I originally applied here, I didn't see him making it a year, or two...or five. I definitely didn't see him actually moving up the ranks here and ended up at the top of the ladder. So like I said, I think that's a pretty good run for a character from a glorified toy commercial. And since the last thing he did (I think) was capture Jirachi, that's a pretty high note to end things on (or as high a note as Cobra's villain career here can actually end on given the whole...being Cobra thing).

Anyways, his Pokemon are here if anybody wants any of them. You guys can pretty much have your pick of them, except I'd prefer his Arbok to just sort of slither off into the wild. After all, it spent five years dealing with Cobra, it deserves a vacation.

And don't worry, I'm still going to be around with Gundam and here as a tech mod! Cobra might be going home after five years, but I definitely plan on sticking around for a long while!

It's been excellent getting to play with you for the years these idiots have been in the game together; he's definitely going to be missed, he had a huge presence around here.

You had an awesome run, Steve, and you did an excellent job with him - no regrets, go out on a high note, it's been great playing with him!

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

Thanks! I'm really glad everyone's had so much fun playing with him over the years!

Did you want anything of his for Kimblee or Tsukiyama's rosters?

[explosivecombat]

Tsukiyama's, perhaps, I'll see what you have; Kimblee...may end up being something of a moot point in July, haha...

But I'll see what's there and let you know!

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

They're all linked up there, but I'm just going to say that I think the shiny Seviper in this box would go well with his fashion taste.

[preybeforemeals]

...Oh my god, Alessia is going to think he's so hot, god bless you

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

You're welcome!

[sadisticwarfare]

Cobra has always been one of my favorite parts of this game. I'm definitely sad to see him go, but I understand burnout! After everything Cobra's done, he'll definitely be a presence that will be remembered! I'm so glad I got the chance to play with him for so long and watch him be... Cobra. He couldn't have gone out in a better way! Thanks so much for being such a great friend associate, Cobra!!!

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

No, thank you for having Archer put up with his stupidity for years!

[sadisticwarfare]

To be honest Archer never had a problem with Cobra. Even in the beginning he was okay putting up with Cobra AND NOW THEY'RE FRIENDS not that he'd ever admit it because Archer's dumb as hell.

ALSO I KIND OF WANT TO SNAG A COBRAMON FOR NAKI are there any of Cobra's Pokémon you'd like to keep around? I've got no real preferences, so if you've got any hilarious ones Naki can be stuck with them!

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

I'm just throwing this out there but...

Nobody's claimed the shiny Garbodor yet.

[sadisticwarfare]

OH MY GOD

LET HIM HAVE THE SHINY TRASH HE'LL BE SO MAD AND I WILL NEVER STOP LAUGHING

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

Consider it Naki's then!

[sadisticwarfare]

PERFECT THANK YOU SO MUCH

Omg I hate to see him go, but at least Lightning proved her point that she was more than capable of kicking his ass. Now she has one less person to defend her friends from. I loved playing with him, and you're awesome for having him around.

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

I'm glad you had fun having her kick the crap out of him! And it's kinda fitting that one of his older archenemies in the game did that too him on his way out, so I'm glad it worked out that way too!

[bylight]

Yes! This was great negative CR. :3 Also, if you want Cobra to spite her, he can send one of his Pokémon at her. how did Cobra manage to get a shiny Carvanha?

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

How about his Shuppet? It's a faceless floating mask, so it's almost like he never left

During the last shiny egg drop, I think. She can have that one too if you want!

[bylight]

Dude, a Shuppet would be rad. And that'd be cool, too. She'd raise them to not be like Cobra XD

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

Then she can have both!

[bylight]

Awesome! She's going to rename them :| She'll find their nicknames ridiculous.

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

I don't even remember if Carvanha has a nickname.

And it could've been worse. Wraith's not that bad compared to some of his other ghost Pokemon. Night Creeper, the Spiritomb for example.

[bylight]

XDDDD Welp, he will now have the name Gadot.

How did Cobra not have nightmares?

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

He kept the ghosts in a Pokeball inside the box unless he needed to use them, so there's no chance of this happening.

[bylight]

That is terrifying....

[diehardreaper]

He was one of Ron's favorite people, ngl. I had fun with Cobes so thanks for putting up with Ronald's constant trolling.

May the reaper have one of his Scizor maybe?

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

I had a lot of fun threading with him too!

And he can definitely have one of them! Or both, since Cobra trained them to work as a pair.

[ignisinfernale]

8D Awesomesauce. I appreciate it!

At least he attempted to have tea with the Commander before he disappeared

[ossifragant]

Man, five years is incredibly impressive. I'll miss seeing Cobra around, but that is a hell of a run.

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

Thanks!

[lieutenantantichrist]

I'm sorry to see him go. Cobra was an incredibly fun guy to have around villaining things up, and you rule for playing him. Is there any particular pain in the ass pokemon he'd like to leave to bite Blake?

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

How do you feel about exploding ice cream?

[lieutenantantichrist]

There's not a single part of that description I don't like!

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

Then how about the Vanilluxe in this box?

[lieutenantantichrist]

Perfect! That'll make the second ice cream he's gotten from somebody who pisses him off.

[fairy_tale_trainer]

Nooo! I've only had a bit of interaction with Cobra, but I very much enjoyed it!

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

I'm glad you had fun threading with him, and I'm sorry they didn't get the chance to interact more!

[fairy_tale_trainer]

Yeah, but good luck with everything! Maybe we'll run into each other again some day!

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

I've still got Gundam here so maybe I'll throw a moron of a slightly more incoherent variety her way!

[fairy_tale_trainer]

Feel free!

[tearsofademon]

Thanks for being so much fun to play with these past few years. Ryner will miss their banter, even if he probably won't admit it aloud.

...And idk what even to ask for, but if Cobra would want to dump something on the derpmage to be a pain, he'd take one in.

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

If you're interested, Cobra's Skarmory was pretty loyal to him, so it'd probably clash with Ryner's personality.

[tearsofademon]

Sounds good. (Plus Rose is weak to steel now~) In that case, Ryner will take good care of him!

Or at least, he'll try to. Loyal to Cobra can't be much worse than his homicidal starfish, so...

I had to I'm sorry.

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

Then enjoy your metal death bird Ryner! While you ssssstill can!

[paishodown]

Our interaction may have been limited, but I can't even say how much I loved seeing Cobra around, and the energy you put into him. I really am sad to see him go, but you had a fantastic run, and he was always a joy to read.

[walkersystem]

Coming in late to second what's already been said - you had an amazing run with this guy, and even though we didn't thread much, he was a joy to see around and you always played him so creatively! Definitely gonna miss seeing him in the game, but he definitely had a glorious run.
