This is where I take 2 or more Pokemon and I compare them to see which Pokemon is better. Be warned this is all opinion so if you disagree that's fine
Subject- Starter Pokemon
Venasaur vs Charizard vs Blastoise
POSITIVES
+ It's immune to Toxic Spikes and powder moves such as Spore
+ Chlorophyll doubles its Speed in harsh sunlight, Doesn't solely rely on its Mega
+ It's Mega gains Thick Fat makes Venusaur neutral against Fire- and Ice-type moves that it would otherwise have been weak to
+ Its defensive typing is perhaps its biggest asset, giving its resistances to Fighting-, Grass-, Water-, Electric-, and Fairy-type moves, and in tandem with its ability Thick Fat and impeccable bulk, it allows Mega Venusaur to check many common threats in OU, Mega Venusaur is also relatively versatile, capable of running an offensive set, more suited to switching into and checking foes with offensive force, or a defensive set that is used more for hard walling threats.
NEGATIVES
- Psychic-type Pokemon such as Alakazam destroy it
- Talonflame OHKOes it with Brave Bird. Priority moves such as Bullet Punch and Ice Shard hit it hard
- The nerf to Drought means that sweeping teams becomes a lot harder
- As a Pokemon with only Synthesis for reliable recovery, it is heavily hurt by sand and rain as well as entry hazards, thus making up a Pokemon very easily worn down.
POSITIVES
+ Charizard has two excellent Mega forms
+ Charizard's movepool is pretty diverse with many boosting, coverage, and support moves. This gives both of its Mega forms a good deal of versatility in the viable sets they can run
+ Base 100 Speed is a pretty good place to be at. It ensures that neither of Charizard's Mega forms will have to be slower for that initial turn like some other Mega Pokemon
+ Outclassed Ninetales as best Sun Summoner as of Gen 6
NEGATIVES
-A 4x Stealth Rock weakness is an obvious eyesore, the single greatest downside of Fire / Flying typing, making it harder to bring out one of it's 2 Megas safely
- Predictable, It has 2 Megas and sometimes you don't know which one will come out but you know it's gonna mega evolve
- Over reliant on it's Mega Evolutions and a normal Charizard is mediocre at best
- Charizard's bulk isn't all that great since it doesn't have the defense boosts of its Mega forms
POSITIVES
+ Blastoise sports great bulk backed by a good mono-Water typing, and it has great Special Attack after it Mega Evolves
+ It also gets great coverage in Aura Sphere, Dark Pulse, and Ice Beam alongside its Water STAB moves. Being able to hit Ghost-types that block its Rapid Spin with Dark Pulse is a huge advantage for a spinner
+ In a metagame focused on neutering physical attackers, a special attacking Mega Evolution with a great Special Attack stat and access to one of the most powerful and reliable spread attacks in Water Spout has a great deal of value
+ Excellent natural bulk is also a boon, allowing it to survive the majority of strong attacks
NEGATIVES
- Pokemon such as Chansey can easily tank multiple hits due to their massive special bulk and proceed to either status Blastoise or attack it with Seismic Toss. As Blastoise lacks reliable recovery, they can easily wear it down with repeated hits.
- Excadrill and Foretress does it's Rapid Spinning job better
- The likes of Rotom-W and Thundurus can easily come in and threaten Blastoise with an Electric STAB, though the latter does face the risk of getting hit by Ice Beam on the switch. Other Electric-types, such as Galvantula and Mega Manectric, can force Blastoise out and gain momentum with Volt Switch.
- Other Water-types, such as Manaphy, can easily set up on Blastoise as they resist its Water STAB. In Manaphy's case, it can also hit Blastoise with Energy Ball. Other Water-types, such as Keldeo, can also easily switch in and attack. Another example is Gyarados, as it can set up a couple of Dragon Dances and sweep.
Reason- Venasaur is a more competive and not easy to predict Pokemon. Charizard suffers from it's 4x Stealth Rock weakness and over dependency on it's Megas where Venasaur isn't. Yes Charizard having 2 Megas makes you guess whether or not it's a Mega Charizard X or Mega Charizard Y but you know it's gonna Mega Evolve and it's still gonna get hurt by rocks unless you send it out 1st. Blastoise like Venasaur can be Offensive or Defensive but the difference is that the 2 things Blastoise can do ( Rapid Spinning & Special Sweeper) other Pokemon do it's job better like Excadrill, Foretress, Alakazam and Gengar. Venasaur can't be poisoned or spored, can be a sun sweeper or wall, can heal with Synthesis, Giga Drain and Leech Seed making Venasaur the more balanced Starter in competitive play.

What's the Hell is with Penball?
I am a huge supporter of Gumball and Penny being a couple but have you ever notice when they finally became boyfriend and girlfriend a majority of there episodes are always negative
When Gumball misunderstands a message from Penny online, he thinks he is about to lose her as his girlfriend. In an attempt to prevent this, he sets up a treasure hunt for her. So Gumball puts Penny through a bunch of hell, granted it wasn't intentional and Penny does forgive him in the end but still.
Through what else a misunderstanding Gumball was late for a date with Penny he goes through a bunch of bull to get there and when he finally gets there what happen
The End of an Era
If you hadn't heard by now Regular Show, The Amazing World of Gumball and now Adventure Time (Proof for AT ending here http://www.avclub.com/article/adventure-time-will-end-after-its-ninth-season-243321) is coming to an end very soon. It's sad to see these show go but it's for the best to see them end before they'd become another Spongebob or Fairly Odd Parents.
When these go the remaining show we'll have left as of now are Steven Universe (Being rumored to end at Season 5 but we have no confirmation yet) We Bare Bears, Teen Titans Go!, The Powerpuff Girls 2016, Clarence, Uncle Grandpa (Ending soon as well) and Mighty Magiswords.
So the big
