I think you mean beret.Yeah, it's usually a metal clip that you put in your hair to keep it to the side. I thought it was spelled "berette" but when I looked it up... something very different came up. If it was a mega item, it would have the stone in the middle.
FUN FACT: First time I heard of a Choker was actually in the Pokemon anime when Zoey helped Dawn with her's in her first Pokemon Contest (it was also Zoey's debut episode). Which is now funny in hindsight because according to wikipedia during the depression era lesbians would wear black chokers or ribbons to signify so to other lesbians. Now what does Dawn's choker look like:Mega Choker. Number 1, it sounds funny. Number 2, it could resemble a cat collar where the Keystone dangles like a bell. Number 3, I'm the pg-16 type.
Or, steal N's Menger Sponge and cut the inner corners to house a keystone, so you get a Mega Menger Sponge.
I think you might have been two letters off, did you mean a barrette?Yeah, it's usually a metal clip that you put in your hair to keep it to the side. I thought it was spelled "berette" but when I looked it up... something very different came up. If it was a mega item, it would have the stone in the middle.
Berets? Maybe when they make a Pokemon region based on France... wait a minute...I think you mean beret.
Well if N can have a Merge Sponge I can't see why you can't have just a charm that's an Apollonian Gasket. Though with that said now I wondered if maybe Anthea and Concordia shouldn't have their own mathematical symbol. Like N has the Merger Sponge cube, Concordia could have a Apollonian Gasket sphere, and Anthea could have a Sierpinski Tetrahedron pyramid.Something with an Apollonian Gasket on it. I can like put more than one key stone in there or whatever and it would look really dope. Maybe like a cuff with a metal Apollonian gasket? idk
...The blazes do any of these mean?Well if N can have a Merge Sponge I can't see why you can't have just a charm that's an Apollonian Gasket.

Exactly! And now I have a new word for my usually good spelling list.HelenTheHero means a Mega Barrette. Like a large, flat, bejeweled hairclip.
If you can imagine Steven's Mega Stickpin holding your hair in place, that's more the route she was trying to take.
Gather around kiddies, time for math! *Everyone runs away screaming*... I'm going on explaining anyway:...The blazes do any of these mean?
Maybe it is my extreme frustration and mental exhaustion from work, but while I recognize the shapes, I can't make sense of the concept... I'll try again when I'm not so bloody pissed.Gather around kiddies, time for math! *Everyone runs away screaming*... I'm going on explaining anyway:
N has a cube hanging off his pants:
(I don't see the strings connecting the chain pieces, how is it not falling apart?)
As you can see the cube looks like a Rubik's Cube with the center piece missing. Now it's known N likes math (nerd) so the cube could be one of two things (or possibly even both being the nature of of the two things correlate): a Void Cube or a Level 1 Menger Sponge. A Void Cube is as I described it earlier, its a puzzle cube like the Rubik's Cube but it missing the center. A Merger Sponge is where you take a cube, divides all its surface into into 9 squares (like a Rubik's cube), remove the center cubes on each face and the core, and then you do the process all over again and again and so on. It represents the concept of infinite space and zero volume. Here's some images to help you out:
Void Cube:
Menger Sponge (Level 0, Level 1, Level 2):
Eitherway these shapes are examples of a fractal curve. A fractal is a repeating pattern that can be seen on every scale, a fractal curve being what the repeating pattern is called. While the Menger is the most well known fractal curve, there are others. Two of these are the Apollonian Gasket (a fractal curve with circles/spheres) and a Sierpinski Tetrahedron (a fractal curve done with triangles/pyramids):
Apollonian Gasket (flat circles, 3D spheres):
Sierpinski Tetrahedron (flat triangles, 3D pyramid)
I figured Anthea and Concordia could have these other two shapes. I don't now why, maybe as presents from N. He seems socially awkward enough to give odd presents like this.
N: Anthea, Concordia, I want to thank you for serving me so well.
Anthea: There is no need to thank us, King N.
Concordia: It's our responsibility and pleasure to help you the best we can.
N: Even so, as your king and brother I want to give you a gift, consider it birthday presents since no one knows when our birthdays are.
*N gives Anthea a Sierpinski Tetrahedron pyramid and Concordia a Apollonian Gasket sphere*
Anthea: Oh, um, thank you King N...
N: Is something wrong?
Concordia: Um, what are these?
N: *laughs* Why they're fractal curves, like my Menger Cube *lifts up his Menger Cube*. Anthea, you have a Sierpinski Tetrahedron since love is like a spike which can pierce one's heart, be it for good or bad. Concordia, you have an Apollonian Gasket since wisdom is like a neverending circle, always going and passing on.
Anthea: Oh, when you put it that way I guess it makes sense. Thank you, King N.
Concordia: Yes, thank you. We'll always cherish these.
N: Great! Now if you'll excuse me, I made thank you gifts for the Seven Sages as well *goes off carrying oddly shaped objects*
Anthea: *whispers to Concordia* What are we suppose to do with these?
Concordia *whispering back* I have no clue.
Actually to be truthful originally I gave Anthea the Sierpinski Tetrahedron and Concordia the Apollonian Gasket because Anthea with with an "A" (which is triangle shaped) and Concordia starts with a "C" (which is round). Yes, I know, simple thinking, but then I remembered they had different names in Japanese. Anthea is Verbana and Concordia is Helena. While my explanation for Anthea still works it no longer works for Concordia, so I did some research and coincidentally it still makes sense. Verbana grow in dense spike shapes while Helena refers to a species of olive, which are round! So my reasoning still works. Of course in-game that would be kind of a lame reason so I then related the shapes to what "goddesses" they were called as you read above.
So yeah, if they were to receive Key Stones then N would be in his Menger Cube, Anthea in her Sierpinski Tetrahedron, and Concordia in her Apollonian Gasket.
I'd prefer a Mega-Fold Up Chair! I've always wanted to hit someone with a Fold Up Chair! :D (To everyone reading this: Don't lie, I know you want to too.)Meanwhile, I found a new Mega item. Mega Hammer. For when slapping sense into people isn't enough.
Oh, sorry to hear that, hope you feel better.Maybe it is my extreme frustration and mental exhaustion from work, but while I recognize the shapes, I can't make sense of the concept... I'll try again when I'm not so bloody pissed.

Actually I more imagine the Mega Fold Up Chair being someone who sets it up during the battle to relax while their Pokemon is battling. Their opponent thinks they're being lazy, but then they reveal it has a Key Stone somewhere on it and the opponent realize they've been tricked but its too late. :PI'd prefer a Mega-Fold Up Chair!

And it ignores the fact that 1/2 + 1/4 +1/8 +1/16. . . equals 1.If I were to put it in an easy to understand example, I'd compare it to the "half way there" paradox. Basically you're driving from one state to another and come across a sign that says 8 miles (or kilometers if you prefer, it doesn't matter) away. You keep driving and eventually get to a sign that says you're 4 miles away, then you get to a sign that says you're 2 miles away, then one that says you're 1 mile away. Now let's assume that every time you get to the "halfway" point of the previous sign you'll read a sign that tells you you're new distance. So he next sign would be .5 miles, then .25 miles, then .125 miles, then 0.0625, then 0.03125, then 0.015625, then 0.0078125, etc., etc.. Pretty much you'll never reach your distance since you'll always be told you'll have half a distance to go. Now obviously this isn't true as it doesn't add in other factors like the speed you're going. The point is that, conceptually, you'll never reach your destination because you'll always be half way there.
The same idea can be applied here. The idea is that as long as the pattern can be the same at any scale you can keep going as long as you make the pattern smaller and smaller making it seem like there is infinite space to keep going. But like with the above paradox, it doesn't count in other factors, like eventually you're going to get down to the subatomic level and at that level there's nothing to continue the pattern on since you're at the point you're dealing with the smallest thing possible. Also at what point does the human eye stop seeing the pattern? Probably before the subatomic level.
Oh, sorry to hear that, hope you feel better.
As for the concepts, it is somewhat hard to figure out what they mean and I ain't making it any easier. I suggest going through Wikipedia's pages on them, that's where I got my info.

Technically it equals less than one by a very small margin, which is the point. Since you're always cutting the distance in half, you'll never reach the goal (you'll get EXTREMELY close so it, but you'll never get to it).And it ignores the fact that 1/2 + 1/4 +1/8 +1/16. . . equals 1.
Yeah, it's exactly like Zeno's Dichotomy paradox.Aaaaah, okay. Putting it in the context of Zeno's paradoxes makes sense. ...that's actually pretty nifty.
Here's another Mega Item in that same vein then. A Mega Golden Ratio. A necklace consisting of a Fibonacci Spiral with a Mega Stone set in the center.
For those who aren't sure, basically take Omanyte's shell. It's a Spiral
Um, where would the Key Stone go in a the tattoo/scar? Would you place it under your skin? That's a bit creepy...A mega tattoo on your arm would be awesome. Just imagine your dragon tattoo glowing as you mega evolve your Charizard. Scars could work in a similar vein maybe.
Maybe a mega gun too. You can pull out a gun and shoot the keystone at the Pokemon you want too mega evolve. May or may not be the most fitting thing for a kids game but who cares.
A mega guitar would be cool too. Having to play the right notes in order to mega evolve would be rather nifty. Also it would be extremely fitting for the guitarist trainer class that is kind of forgotten these days. Other instruments like a saxophone, flute or even a microphone or stereo would be cool too.
Also a mega sombrero to mega evolve Ludicolo, genius.
Actually, modern mathematics says the opposite.Technically it equals less than one by a very small margin, which is the point. Since you're always cutting the distance in half, you'll never reach the goal (you'll get EXTREMELY close so it, but you'll never get to it).
I can already imagine Sidney having one! Too bad he already has a Mega-thing hidden somewhere...Oh, sorry to hear that, hope you feel better.
