Actually there are choosen 176 Gligar (Germany) and just 60 Riolu (Argentina), nice rate :D
And I really wish that Germany wins the game, 'cause otherwise I will probably never get the Riolu for my Soecial Dex ^^'
Goodbye VA. Had a great time :)

That's a fun idea XD I'm watching the games but I'm not that much into soccer/football. So having something to lose/win will make it a lot more interesting! (I'm hoping for a penalty shootout at the end)

It's hard to decide ... I think germany is getting overhyped because of their last game ... but since I like gligar a lot more, I'm choosing germany anyway :)

It's so funny how everyone likes the Riolu Promo better, but choosing Germany because they guess they will win x'D (Or simply because it's their country). Honestly I don't care a bit for soccer and I just hope, that Germany will lose, because then the hype everywhere here will end and it's not annoying anymore ^^' (Couldn't sleep any time when Germany played, because of my *#%&?! neighbours -.-)
But now... I have to hope that they win, because I want both Promos too .3.

Tomoaki, lol. i know this problem... who not?!
the last game was realy great. one goal after another, i didn't noticed it that they shot the next one, because there was no break^^


everytime when people sayd germany will lose, they won... hm, what does they say atm?

and if many user use gligar because they are germans... i think VA should become a german side! :P (just a joke^^)

Vote for Germany. Argentina just play really bad this entire Word cup. Lucky Goal against Belgium. They got lucky Yesterday against the Netherlands. Last match was a deserved win because the match was in balance both teams played at there best. Despite that Holland was the only team that wanted to play. But too bad they lost.

I'm voting for Germany. Personally, I think their promo is cooler.

I won't cry for you, Argentina!
Wait, something ain't right here...

What's up with this soccer madness? When the ice hockey world championship was going on, no one gave a damn. :I (Though the final was a friggin' joke and the victory really went to the referees but whatever.)

I disapprove. The hockey nutty in me cannot accept this.

Picked Germany though if that matters.... :I

ChiipS wrote: Bem, espero que isto seja visto de uma maneira boa. Estou apenas fazendo isto como um desabafo, para que isto não fique preso em mim. No dia da derrota do Brasil para a Alemanha eu fiquei irritado, mas não pelo 7x1, mas sim pelas pessoas que realmente não tem esse patriotismo que foi demonstrado durante toda a Copa do Mundo, cantando "PÁTRIA AMADA BRASIL" nos estádios e em casa, e simplesmente pelo time perder começam a jogar toda essa demonstração fora. Ontem enquanto assistia o jornal local eu vi uma coisa que me deixou realmente triste, foi feita uma comparação da chegada da seleção a Granja Comary, e durante as vitórias o ônibus quase não conseguia passar de tantas pessoas aguardando a seleção, e então depois de tudo, no ultimo jogo, no máximo umas 10 pessoas estavam aguardando, e então somente porque a seleção não fez um bom jogo que de nada valeu todos o momentos de alegria que eles nos proporcionaram durante a Copa?

Não sei como isso foi repercutido pelo mundo, mas antes da Copa começar muitos protestos foram feitos para que a mesma fosse cancelada, e depois que tudo começou, pareceu que tudo fora feito muito bem. Não sei como será o país depois da Copa, mas espero que seja pelo menos o mínimo melhor do que era antes. E em meio a tantas reclamações que me pareciam inúteis, eu vi uma pessoa (não me lembro a nacionalidade dela) que estava comparando algumas coisas no Brasil com outro países, e então eu vi que o Brasil não é um lugar tão ruim, e depois disso eu parei para pensar e ainda vi que um lugar que nenhuma catástrofe natural aconteça (terremotos, tsunamis, furacões), e que tenha um clima agradável (nem sempre é muito frio ou muito calor), e com tantas riquezas, eu sei que o Brasil pode ser o melhor o país para se viver. (Mesmo tento alguns deslises com desvios de verbas, mal comando, mas isso eu ainda tenho esperanças de que pode ser mudado).

E ainda assim, depois de um 7x1, 8x1, 9x1, 5000x1, ainda tenho o orgulho de dizer: "EU SOU BRASILEIRO, COM MUITO ORGULHO, COM MUITO AMOR!!"



I apologize for writing in English, but that's my honest rant the Brazilian for the Brazilian people. And accept the warning That Can Be Given to me (since I have not respected the rule, I apologize for it again).

And I'm sad that Brazil does not have its promo. I had the desire for something bigger was made as a promo for each participating country, but it was not what happened, and yet still glad that the simpler it is the VA did some event on the World Cup in Brazil.

And sorry again for the rant, but it needed to be done so I could at least share my feeling for it does not become a bad thing in me.

ChiipS, I just translated your text with google and I think I got what you mean.
Like I said, I'm not really a soccer person, but I thought that it was pretty sad to see people leaving the stadium even before the game was actually over. I don't get how people can run around with painted faces and be totally obsessed with their team ... and as soon as they lose they're ashamed and angry. I mean ... either you like your team or you don't, but only liking it when it's winning is kind of stupid. If you REALLY are a person that loves your country you should do so especially when it's not on top.
So it's cool to see that you're still proud of Brazil :)

I'm not sure why you posted this on VA ... I don't know if it's the right place, since there aren't that much Brazilians here. But after reading your post I got the idea that it might be nice to have a special brazilian promo aswell. I mean ... if we already got world cup promos anyway, it would be cool having one for the country the whole thing is taking place in. :)
