Did I just miss it, or was there seriously no thread for Zubat up until now? D:

Anyway, I wasn't too surprised when he (or she?) caught himself.  After all, he's been stuck to Hillaree like glue all of this time xD  I'm also just realizing, we don't really know much about that Zubat.  It hasn't talked at all (has it?  I need to re-read the archive... >_>).  Why doesn't it talk?  Why does it like Hillaree's head so much?  

Is it a boy or a girl (yes, I'm very curious about this now)?

[Vye Brante]

Zubat is female, I have decided.  When she first appeared, I wasn't too sure myself what I wanted.  But after a while, I decided there needed to be more girls so Zubat's a girl.

And yup, Zubat hasn't said a single word so far.  Very curious!

[Tyto]

Hmmm....

So she's afraid of being alone, I guess that would explain the glued-to-Hillaree's-head thing.

That's sad, but it's also kinda cute and funny at the same time. xD

[Vye Brante]

Yeah, it kinda is.

[kirbyboy102]

Can I eat him?

[Vye Brante]

Well, seeing as how Zubat is a her, you must be talking about someone else.

So . . . maybe.

[kirbyboy102]

I meant her.

[Tyto]

Noooo!  Don't eat the adorable Zubat!  *snatches Zubat and runs away*

[Vye Brante]

Yes, run far away, Tyto!  Protect Zubat!

[Oranges_and_Pears]

Why Hillaree's head, though? Why not her shoulder?

It must be the shampoo she uses. ^^

[Vye Brante]

Ha ha, must be.

I thought the head would be a little easier to get to, and might be easier to lay on where Zubat doesn't have feet.

[kirbyboy102]

Aww, I wanted to eat 'im!

[Vye Brante]

Ha ha, I like you're avatar!  Cute.

Anyways, no eating for you.

[kirbyboy102]

*eats avater and then cat at a later date*

[Georgia]

You can't eat cats. That would be discrimination! Haha, just kidding. ^-^;

I personally love the little guy. (Or in this case, girl.) She's as cute as a button! <3

[Vye Brante]

Heh, glad you think so.  Zubat seems popular with the fans.  But so do all the Pokemon to some extent or another.

[patykida]

Really why is Zubat in her head?
And is she going to have a nickname?

[Vye Brante]

No nickname, as seen on her description for the character page.  Just Zubat.  Just like Ponyta is just Ponyta.

[kirbyboy102]

Daisy is my favorite, but she hasn't appeared lately... ;_;

[Vye Brante]

Heh, she'll get even less screen time in the next chapter.  Only Zubat and Spyro will be seen.  It's gotten to the point where there are so many characters, it's hard to get them all in.

For this, I apologize.  (I've been apologizing a lot lately, it feels like.)

Everyone will get a little more attention in Chapter 10, I hope.

[kirbyboy102]

maybe you should make some characters leave for a few chapters. (Robin? Hazel? The spinarak? The zubat? The mystery Man? who needs them to appear for a while?)

[Vye Brante]

Robin and Hazel will stick around until the end of the Viridian City Arc.  After that, they won't be seen for a while.  Not sure how long.

[kirbyboy102]

Then Daisy can take Their place?  And where did Ponyta go?  I thought she didn't have a pokeball!

[Vye Brante]

. . .

Wow, I've had to explain the Ponyta thing so many times.  I shoulda put it in the comic.

As mentioned on Page 147, Ponyta and Daisy were indeed captured.  We just didn't see it.  It happened after the end of Chapter 6 but before Chapter 7 started.

I'm not mad, just disappointed that I didn't make it clearer.

[The guy with no username]

What if the streaks on Hillaree's hair looked like a landing strip, and Zubat landed there because of that? That would be pretty funny. I'm not making fun of Hillaree's hair, I actually think it's very cool.

[Vye Brante]

Ha ha, landing strip.  Maybe!

[Tyto]

That would make a good gag strip. xD

[Vye Brante]

Heh, yeah, probably would.

[The guy with no username]

Hmm, now there's an idea... Since I can't draw, I'll hire someone to draw it for me....

[Vye Brante]

Sounds like a plan.

[kirbyboy102]

And I've hired myself. xD If ya'll don't mind.

[Vye Brante]

Ha ha, hope they don't mind if you do that.

[Tyto]

I don't mind x)  Kirbyboy does great gag strips.

(I still go into fits of giggles remembering the "Wonderful Wizard of Evur" one.)

[Vye Brante]

Yup, that was a good one.

[kirbyboy102]

I totally forgot to draw it for chapter 8! ;_; I'll draw it for chapter 9.

[Vye Brante]

Heh, that's okay.  Whenever is fine.

[kirbyboy102]

You see, if I don't say I'll do it, I'll forget about it! ^-^
