| Don't read this unless you want to hear me bitch. Otherwise, look below the spoiler. - Spoiler:
Seriously. Umbreon as the mascot? :/ REALLY?
1. How many other forums probably have Umbreon as their mascot? Hundreds? Probably. The forum should not be considered "One of those forums", but "That forum" instead.
2. Umbreon isn't even a ghost type, man. o.o Waaay unfitting for TW.
I personally think we should try some other mascot, not Umbreon. =/ Really, guys. I'm disappointed, I'm not gonna lie. It's just... no. Don't use one of the most overrated pokemon ever. That's retarded.
Maybe we could try something else, yet just as cool? Of course, Ghost pokemon would fit the name.
Maybe Drifblim...~? Or Dusknoir, maybe? Something that hasn't been done fifty billion times and isn't worshipped by about 40% of the fanbase?
Dear Lord.
In a nutshell, I'd like to change the mascot to something more fitting and original. Some other ghost type, something that hasn't been done that much so our forum can at least stand out a little bit. Does anyone agree? | |

| As much as I like Umbreon, I suppose you may be right. And if we decide to use a ghost type, I support Sableye for mascot. :D Or Absol as a dark type (in b4 "overrated")
Edit: Though you'd have to live with an Umbreon banner once Haruka finishes hers. | |

Then I can make a banner with that Pokemon more dominant. I don't really wanna finish this banner for nothing...|D; | |

| Sableye sounds nice. -nodnod-
Absol... eh. It's a lot better than Umbreon, don't get me wrong, but still not good.
And Haruka, just finish the banner~ I suppose keeping Umbreon would be tolerable for a month or two until we change the theme of the forum. | |

| Okay, then, this thread can now be used to discuss suggestions for mascot. Dark and Ghost types only, please, unless you can think of something else that fits. | |

No but um... Not sure..I do like the sound of Darkrai, but Darkrai's probably been used for over 9,000 other forums as well. Sableye would be interesting...um..x.x; | |

| Well, there are only 493 pokemon to choose from, and even less when you narrow it down to certain things. However, regarding mascots, I think Banette or Shedinja would be cool. | |

| Come to think of it, Lioe was talking to me about this and she has a point- A mascot restricts us. Especially when it comes to seasonal banners and such. Why don't we just theme our forum with ghost type pokemon in general instead of just one single pokemon? Kinda like psypokes.com. | |

| That sounds cool. Ghost/Dark theme for our site perhaps? That way people won't be arguing over a mascot. | |

| That sounds reasonable. Unless there are any objections, we'll drop our mascot and just have a Ghost/Dark theme. | |

| I agree with that~ ^^
That way we can have variety, y'know?
Froslass for Winter, maybe Shiftry for spring, and so on.
Assuming we're doing the seasonal banners, that is. If we're doing something else, then I'm 90% sure we'll be able to make it work. | |

| My internet died. ;w; But yes, I like this idea. A lot. I hate being restricted to one single pokemon, so this fits well o: | |

| I'm thinking that the contest participants could have the option of just making a banner that could fit with any season or making a specific seasonal banner, or we could just have contests every couple of months rather than once a season. | |

| I like the couple of months idea. That way, everyone can participate and make a banner, regardless of the season. | |
