[gingersnipe]

Meet my pokémon trainer Spradly (or Spradley but platinum only lets you use 7 characters so the ‘e’ had to go). i’ve had a nuzlocke comic starring him in the works for years now but i haven’t drawn much for it until today! hopefully i can post more about this soon i’m excited to finally be working on

#it’s the randomized platinum nuzlocke i mentioned earlier #spradly uses he/they btw #pokémon #nuzlocke #rent asunder #spradly #ginger art #my art

Here are some of my silly doodles from the TPP Lore Discord server! I didn’t want to delete them, since I really like them.

I came to the server to learn more about the lore, and I learned that the new host’s name was Yuu.

They described him as a pop-star who was very flashy and fashionable. He has a pretty face too, so it reminded me of Lil’ D, a fashionable host from the X run. I wondered what it would look like if they met, so I made this:

[Image Discription- A young man in a coat and turtleneck sweater, gestures to two outfits. He smirks with closed eyes, saying, “Behold! My amazing outfits…” The first outfit has a coat and pants. The bottom of the coat has two large buttons attached to it with a thunderbolt pattern underneath. On both shoulders, two black striped triangles poke upward. The sweater underneath the coat has two stripes on its neck. The shoes have cotton fluff on the top, with jewels in it. Two jewels sit on the shoe, with stripes leading down. The second outfit has three leaves as the vest’s collar. There is a furry collar behind that looks like flames. It comes with a necklace. The vest has a long tailcoat that looks like leaves. The bottom of the outfit’s pants are folded up to make way for the shoes. The young man on the lower right looks amazed. His fedora leaps out of his head in shock. Next to him is an exclamation point.]

First, we have Yuu showing Lil’ D his outfits. D seems very shocked, but impressed!

These outfit designs were created by “Tranzi72,” a creative artist in the TPP fanbase. Yuu’s first outfit in the upper right was inspired by the designs of Plusle and Ampharos. The second outfit across from it was inspired by the designs of Tropius and Typhlosion.

[Image Description: A young man with blond shoulder length hair, cries out of happiness. He is wearing a purple jacket. He hugs the green vest with the furry flame collar.]

Of course, I imagined that D would love the outfits. So much so, that he would hug one.

The topic of Pokémon inspired outfits came to mind, and I remembered that I tried to make a Mega Charizard X outfit once.

There were many designs, and I can’t believe that this was something I considered:

[Image Description: A grumpy blonde man is wearing a onesie that looks like a black dragon with blue wings, and a blue flame on its tail. He hunches forward with his arms on his hips. Two people laugh in the foreground. The one on the left is colored purple and is wiping a tear from their eye. The one on the right is colored pink and laughs openly.]

Grumpy D in a Charizard X pajama onesie. With guest stars Reese and Yuu, laughing their heads off at how ridiculous it looks…

Reese, from the Gauntlet Blaze Black 2 Run, and Yuu, from the current Grand Colosseum Run, are considered to be one of the more fashionable hosts.

But of course, one could never forget the man who started this whole fashion thing… Napoleon, from the Platinum run!

[Image Description: In the first panel, three people walk in the distance happily. One person is left behind, looking at them. The second panel shows the same person, with an exclamation mark next to him. He has a calm and stoic expression.]

If Yuu, D, and Reese manage to become fashion buddies, why not let Napoleon in the group? He’s as good as them (or maybe even better).

We joked around that he would host a fashion show just to bet on the winners. I think he would secretly bet the most on D, just because he’s family.

[Image Description: A man wearing a blue winter jacket, cravat, and red beret raises a gleaming coin to the sky. He is wearing a determined expression. The text next to him reads, “bets on D because he’s family.” Another man wearing a purple jacket smiles bashfully. The text next to him reads, “D, once he finds out.”]

D would be very grateful for his cousin betting on him (once he finds out, that is). Napoleon’s shy younger brother, Pepe, would be watching from afar, supporting D. He’s very proud.

[Image Description: A man with a shy and friendly expression holds a flag. It says, “Go D!” He wears a winter jacket and cravat.]

And plus, there hasn’t been much art of the family together, so I give you this:

[Image Description: Three men wearing smiles make a heart shape with their arms. The man on the left makes the left side of the heart. The man on the right makes the right side. The man in the middle makes the bottom of the heart. There is a tiny pink heart above them.]

Napoleon, Pepe, and D, all together! They all are very different, but they still are a loving family in the end!

Changeling izuku would normally transform with a puff of smoke but he was in a rush so he grab a random mask and suddenly did a magic girl transformation with the unicorn mask

Unicorn mask would absolutely transform in a burst of light and sparkles. Makes me think of a Pokémon game(I think it was Pokémon Platinum?) years ago that had certain seals on Pokeballs that had different special effects when you threw out your Pokémon. Like sparkes, flowers or confetti.

Maybe specific masks also has different effects? Like Jester would definitely have confetti. Dragon or phoenix(whenever I get around to drawing them...) would transform in a burst of flames.

It just seems really fun.

Hi, I hope you’re doing good in life!

So obviously pokemon legends arceus never got another update or dlc and it probably never will at this point, (which still makes me a little sad tbh) but in a world where it did get more updates what would you have liked to see? I person would’ve loved a dlc where we could go to Iron Island, Full Moon Island, and New Moon Island, and the area that became the battle resort in the post game of DPPT. Also I would’ve liked to see Darkrai and Cresselia’s lore and story fleshed out in this hypothetical DLC. It was cool that Darkrai was legitimately catchable in Arceus without being locked behind an event, but it also seemed rather random that he was in the Coronet Highlands, same with Cresselia. In platinum after you catch Darkrai there’s an unknown voice (Arceus’s voice perhaps?) That says Darkrai’s power is so strong that it purposely isolates itself on New Moon Island and that if anyone were to fall into it’s nightmare, Full Moon Island is close by. I could just imagine a quest in the game where the player goes to New Moon Island and they fall into a nightmare but don’t even realize it and you have to play through the characters really messed up dream until you finally encounter Darkrai and catch it. That would’ve been so cool. Also here’s a picture of a shiny Darkrai I caught in my Pokémon diamond recently that I caught through glitches and RNG manipulation.

Hello!! Thank you for the ask!!

I will avoid answering this question with the obvious submas fan answer cause I’ve said it before lol, but there were definitely other things I had wanted from another possible PLA DLC!!

The biggest thing I would have wanted was similar to yours; a new area to explore!! I loved PLA’s scenery, and would have loved another possible biome to find and see. Something I would have wanted with that was new Pokémon added to the dex for us to study. Like how SWSH’s DLCs added new pokemon to its dex. And maybe a couple new NPCs to meet and talk with too for a little self-contained DLC side story.

Another thing I would have loved would have been to see them add a quality of life update, where your pokemon could follow you around instead of just stay in one spot when you let them out of their pokeballs. Again, like SWSH’s isle of armor DLC.

And I often see DLC add new clothing options as well, so that would have been fun!!

And this one is the most vague of course, but man, more DLC would mean more possible story. More quests, more interacting with NPCs and more chances to see them and their personalities!! I will always want more of that from PLA :(

I really like your ideas too!! Would be really fun to get something like that, mirroring Platinum’s distortion world in a way. And WOW congrats on that shiny darkrai!! Love the shiny’s blue-tinted look.

Thanks for asking me this question and for sharing your own ideas OP, I love thinking about and hearing stuff like this!!

#wayward’s asks #RIP PLA I always wish you got more DLC

[alertarchitect]

I genuinely do not understand The Discourse around Palworld. Now, for full transparency, I don't really particularly care about the game, I've not played it, nor do I plan to. I'd rather stick with my FPS games and metroidvanias. I'm probably the closest to being a neutral party on the issue you can find in the gaming community. That being said...

Stop with all of the "[Megacompany X] needs to call their lawyers!!" nonsense. Yes, they have designs that look like Pokémon. Yes, they have designs that look like Monster Hunter monsters. However, I have one important question here...

Why the hell do you care?

First off, we're talking ripoff designs of IPs owned by companies that make profits in the billions. These companies, especially Nintendo, have - or at least have access to - very good lawyers. Do you really think Palworld - a game made by a company based in Japan, the SAME COUNTRY as the companies I see people saying are having their designs stolen, meaning this theoretical lawsuit would be 100% domestic instead of bringing the headaches associated with an international suit - would have made it to release if Nintendo, Capcom, or any other company had standing for a plagiarism lawsuit? Especially when Japan doesn't have fair use laws? That, to me, already tells me these designs are clearly in the "legally distinct ripoff" category, and that's okay. Obviously plagiarism isn't a good thing, but if this was close enough to be considered such under laws that don't include fair use provisions, it's FINE. Even if it's not the most ethical, ripoffs and bootlegs are gonna happen. This one is just has more publicity than most.

Second, these are - again - billion-dollar companies that make more money than most people can even truly comprehend. Why are you defending them so much? No matter how much I may like the older Pokémon games, such as Platinum, we are talking about one of, if not the single most profitable franchise on the fucking PLANET. Not only does it not need Random Schmuck #582183 to defend it online, the people behind it likely don't fucking CARE. The Pikémon Company is like 50% or more owned by Nintendo, which is a company that - as we've seen time and again with their takedowns of passionate fan projects with 0 profit incentive such as AM2R as well as their draconian YouTube content policies for creators - doesn't care about their fans at the best of times, and is actively hostile towards them more often than not. Why do so many people defend these large corporations like doing so is going to get you a "thank you" letter from Miyamoto? Why are you supporting massive billionaires like your life depends on it over some 3D models that, as previously established, are more in the "legally distinct ripoff" category than anything else? Are you so invested in their corporate wellbeing that you feel the need to try and do their PR & legal teams' jobs for them?

At the end of the day, Palworld is a game made by a team that seems genuinely passionate about their craft, that has been a fun experience for many people across the world. Let those people have their fun. And if the designs being ripoffs is such a problem for you, just don't buy the game. Simple as that. If you're that worried, let the notoriously litigious companies like Nintendo handle it. Don't try to be an ass to people just having fun in a video game. Hell, if you're so convinced this is a case of direct plagiarism, just stop supporting the people making stuff about it like we did with the people who played the Shitty Wizard Game. Obviously this issue is nowhere near as bad, as it's just a case of ripoff designs instead of people financially supporting an anti-semitic, racist TERF who sees financial support of her franchise as support for her ideals and uses the platform that gives to call for things like trans genocide, but the principle is the same in practice - just don't support it or anything to do with it, and chill the hell out.

[pyromaniac-cyndaquil]

people are saying that about volo huh? man he’s such an experience bc the fundamental rules of the game (or of singles i should say) are messed up there. there’s a lot that’s different in your favor and a lot that’s different in his. the turns system is unique with the strong and agile style thing making it possible to go multiple times in a row (and to get hit multiple times in a row.) the fact that there are no free switches in between your opponent’s pokémon so you can get punished for ohko’ing somebody by having him send out the perfect counter that immediately goes first. the fact that max revives are very easily attainable in this game. the fact that not only is giratina A Thing, but that when playing for the first time *you don’t know about that.* the only way to be truly prepared for giratina is to stall and take the time to heal your team toward the end of volo’s fight which feels kinda cheap. barring that you either have to be very overpowered or very lucky

i struggled when i first played even when using a ton of items and having brought four legendaries (probably bc i was a noob). but on my next replay when i had more experience and a real team i was still fighting for my life, even with items. but i did a no items volo challenge for my most recent run and it was a fresh nightmare that came down to very good luck on my part for the final shot. all three times i remained strictly on level and honestly isn’t the game way more fun that way? i’m also thinking i should go no items or at least limited items from here on out. and a strict level cap

It's mostly YouTube comment bragging I've seen people say that about volo in, but yeah, it's really silly. Couldn't have said it better myself! The way pla is balanced is honestly so cool, and the dread I felt so many times with battling him and he stacked up enough agile and priority moves to get like three turns in a row was painful 😭 not to mention the obscured status! Hoo boy, that REALLY made giratina a pain.

What I find really funny is I beat volo's regular team first try and even when I was liveblogging I mentioned that I was sad it wasn't harder, even if I only had a couple pokemon still standing.

... Then giratina happened 😂 I lost to his first phase sooooo many times on subsequent attempts after that, think I ended up having to swap out my hisuian lilligant for an alpha sylveon and trained that up from scratch just to have a reliable counter for spiritomb.

Anyway yeah, it's soooooo much more fun to stay on level! If I'd just ran in overlevelled there's no way it'd have stayed in my head for as long as it has, it's probably my favourite pokemon moment of all time as it stands. No items is definitely really fun in Pokémon in general, I love having to think hard about team order, items and status moves to give myself the best shot of staying alive 😭 tempted to also try a level cap when I play violet, bc shiny hunting and BBQ grinding made it way too easy to accidentally overlevel (accidentally got my hydrapple to level 100 half way through the epilogue, woops)

If you have access to emulation btw, I'd highly recommend luminescent platinum! Idk if you've heard of it or not but it's a really cool bdsp mod with a few cool story changes, properly scaled pokemon and a massive overhaul to every battle in the game (as well as expanding the dex by A Lot). All bosses have several rotating sets of teams they'll use at random that are fully competitive and there's an option in-game to set hard level caps that increase as the story goes along, and stop you levelling up at all once you reach them. It's really cool! Think I'm up to victory road in that game, should really get back to it haha

#goldensunset #wondermail #i hope this was compressible fsdgfhfjgjgjgj #i love the volo fight so much. and also just pla in general

"A trip down memory lane" or something

For me, there are some songs that I listen to that remind me of whatever part of my life I would often listen to that song during. This is the power of music; the same song brings different emotions and different memories to each person, and can give you the feeling of being brought back in time.

Video games can be described as an escape from reality for many. This makes the unique combination of being brought to a time where you are experiencing another world. It feels childish, but despite that, this is a big part of some people's childhood and lives. So let's go back in time real quick.

Disclaimer, I'm going to use some remixes/remasters for these songs that I think fit the song better. Also, they're almost all Pokémon ;)

Pokémon HeartGold/SoulSilver ~ New Bark Town

The peaceful, first town music of each Pokémon game is always a nostalgic one, as it is the sound of a new adventure. Still being a huge Pokémon fan at the age of 20, hearing the starting town music from a game I played when I was 7 years old is a feeling like no other. It makes me remember the days where I had fun even without having to try understanding everything. This is a great studying or waiting song for me.

Minecraft ~ Volume Alpha

Nowadays, it is pretty widely accepted that video games can get very addicting and consuming. My first time experiencing this was with Minecraft. A simple game with endless possibilities, where you build up your own world, at your own pace, however you want. The song might be even more nostalgic than New Bark Town's theme for me. Being one of the most popular games in the world to this day, this song probably brings nostalgic feelings for many. As it is a slow paced song like New Bark Town's theme, this could be good study music. However, I don't personally listen to this.

Pokémon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire ~ vs. Wally

Perhaps one of the most interesting things in video games is the concept of characters. While they bring lots to the table, there is one thing that isn't expressed much: the fact that you are always the main character. In Pokémon, this means all of those around you will be weaker than you in the end, because canonically, you win every battle.

In the original Pokémon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald games, Wally was a character with little impact or meaning to the games. He was just a boy who was overprotected by his uncle, and who you would help start up his adventure. In the remakes (Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire), he starts off similar, but grows into a different character in the end. He is no longer another random kid for the player to crush on their path to become champion. Now he has the resolve to win, and doesn't care for being protected by his uncle. He gives one of the best speeches in the series, then goes straight into the hardest guitar theme in the series to kick off the player's battle with him.

A discussion on GameFAQS goes over how he feels like a different character altogether. In the end he still loses of course, but his battle theme is honestly one of my favorite songs in general, and I would listen to it at any time. It would be a crime to describe it with any word other than awesome.

Pokémon Diamond/Pearl/Platinum ~ The piano before Cynthia

The piano that every Pokémon player fears. It would have been criminal of me to not include this song, so here it is.

For context, this is the song that plays right before the player's battle against the champion of Sinnoh (a region), Cynthia. The battle against the champion is (usually) the climax of a Pokémon game. Whoever defeats the reigning champion is granted the title of champion for themselves, and is the end goal for the protagonist.

As you make it to the final battle, the intense piano begins to play. And before you is Cynthia, the girl who goes around studying the history of Sinnoh; little did you know that the whole time, she was destined to be your final opponent.

Looking and acting badass isn't all there is to Cynthia, though. Remember when I said every Pokémon player fears this song? She is notorious for being the most difficult "boss" in the entire series.

Overall, an epic moment to be remembered. Just chills every listen.

Kirby's Dream Land ~ Green Greens

Ah yes, Kirby. The adorable little circle that goes around eating things. Green Greens truly captures the fun of these games and the world of Kirby. That is all this song means to me, but that is okay. It's still a banger and the energy it gives is refreshing.

These songs and many others from games give a kind of feeling that I can't find in any other kind of music. I could listen to most of them in any way, but studying, walking around, and driving would be the best 3 things overall.

Below are some other songs I really like and will include in this playlist, but won't go into depth about (If you're into this kind of music, I highly recommend giving "vs. Trainer Red" and "vs. Zinnia" a try):

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time ~ Lost Woods

Pokémon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire ~ Zinnia's Sorrow/vs. Zinnia

Pokémon Gold/Silver/Crystal ~ vs. Trainer Red

Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon ~ Partner's Theme

Hello random day thought here now I’m gonna list off some recommendations for fics but I swear to the all mighty if you don’t take take breaks I will track you down and tie you to your bed and force you to sleep but now back to our recommendations we have The hunger games (I have zero what you would write this is just my hyper-fixation coming through) Then we have How to train you dragon (If you haven’t seen this I would be a puddle of confusion but as you have probably guessed most of these are gonna be my hyper fixations because you write Beautifully and I want that but I will see it that you take breaks) Then we have Pokémon Then Dad/Uncle POV fic I think many people would like then A reaction fic of anything and if you don’t know what a reaction fix is then figure it out (Speaking of recommendation how about I speak to you about the lord and savior Spring time fanfic on Spacebattles a bellamy Self-Insert that reminds me of you)

I’ve got a solid half a plot for a Hunger Games fic I wanna write but if I get sidetracked from SSSBMTY I’ll be really sad. I do wanna write it eventually tho, I’m quite attached to the plot. I explained the whole thing to my friends the other day and they thought it was neato mosquito.

I’ve never considered writing for HTTYD (though the movies are absolutely wonderful) or Pokémon (I never got into it enough though I did crush Pokémon Platinum on my DSI during quarantine).

I WANNA WRITE THE PSEUDO DAD/UNCLE POV FIC REAL BAD BUT THERE WOULD BE SO MUCH SHIT IN THERE THAT WOULD SPOIL STUFF FOR THE MAIN FIC SO IF IT HAPPENS IT WON’T BE UNTIL SSSBMTY IS OVER.

I honestly don’t love reaction fics so I don’t see myself writing one soon or like ever.

Sorry, what’s the fics name and author? If it’s on AO3 I’ll give it a look.

[a-bit-too-much-of-a-pokemon-fan]

Ice-Cold Take: Cynthia is a Fantastic Champion

Yeah, I know that practically everyone already agrees with me. But I want to go on about her anyway. Let's talk about it.

The Background

Cynthia introduces herself to you as "A Pokémon trainer, just like you," and as being an amateur historian. So we already have a kinda interesting background. Then she appears a few times across your journey, even being a central character in the climax of Platinum. She jumped right into the Distortion World right alongside you. So we know she's brave and strong of heart.

It might not be total surprise to everyone on their first run that Cynthia is the champion. She is a recurring adult character who appears to be a strong trainer; Wallace and Lance have a similar setup. But even if you saw it coming from a mile away, who expected the piano?

Have another ice-cold take: her intro music is phenomenal. It also has separate effects depending on how you're playing the game. On your first run, you hear the music and know shit is about to go down. No one else in the game has had and introduction like this. But if this is a Nuzlocke, a battle you've prepared for, the last challenge of the run, the song is downright bone-chilling. In my first Nuzlocke, as I approached her with just a Porygon-Z, Electivire, and Hippowdon, my heart was pounding.

What I don't hear a lot of talk about is her actual battle theme. I'm going to dissect it in another post.

The Buildup

I've complained about the stupidly high level cap jump from Volkner to Cynthia in Nuzlockes: 17 levels in DP/BDSP and 12 in Platinum. It's an atrocious grind if you want to be at her level cap. But if you're playing vanilla, the jump is actually kind of genius. How much leveling can your team of favorites really do between Volkner and the Elite Four? Even Barry's ace at the Pokémon League is his Lv 55/51 starter.

Then you start the Elite Four challenge. Aaron leads with a Lv 53 Dustox/Lv 49 Yanmega, and the difficulty keeps ramping up and up. Last spring, I completed my first run of Platinum as an adult. My team seemed up to snuff at first. Take a look.

Alpha the Luxray, Lv 54

Shine the Gardevoir, Lv 52

T. C. the Empoleon, Lv 52

Rayda the Rapidash, Lv 50

Kongu the Staraptor, Lv 47

Montero the Giratina, Lv 49

I wasn't prepared for what came next.

The Battle

I knew when I saw Cynthia send out her Lv 58 Spiritomb that I was in for a rough battle. The difficulty of her battle doesn't just come from the leveling, though.

I don't believe for a second that Cynthia's lead is a Spiritomb just because it's a strong Pokémon. Its encounter requirement is so random and hard to fulfill that it's likely a first-time player will never have seen a Spiritomb before this battle. Its typing is phenomenal: it has no weaknesses (only one in BDSP), three immunities, and one resistance. It has powerful coverage moves too, making it hard to guess the typing. And that's just how she starts the battle.

There are great coverage moves across the board, too. Togekiss would eat shit to a Rock type that both resists its STAB moves and is super effective. So Cynthia gave it Aura Sphere. If you were going to use an Electric type to take Togekiss out, Garchomp's immunity and Earthquake will have something to say about it. Garchomp is quad-weak to Ice, so it has Flamethrower. Lucario is weak to Fire, so it has Stone Edge. Maybe you were planning on taking it out with a Ground type, but she has a Roserade and Milotic ready to counter it. Milotic has Ice Beam to deal with any Grass type challenger.

Let's also not forget that her ace is a Lv 66/62 cracked-out pseudo-legendary with only 2 (3 in BDSP) weaknesses--which are rare types anyway. I'm certainly not the first person to say that her Garchomp is a menace. I should know, it was 8 levels higher than my own Electric type ace. As a side note, it's neat that she gives you a Togepi egg early in the game and uses a Togekiss herself. Point is, you need non-STAB coverage moves or an otherwise well-composed team to take Cynthia on.

Between her story significance, musical accompaniment, and excellent team, Cynthia is a fantastic champion. A perfect conclusion to the flawed but wonderful experience that is... er, Platinum Version. I have certain feelings towards DP/BDSP. That's for another rant, though.

Napoleon looks disappointed, and there is a shadow highlighting his narrowed eyes and angry eyebrows. His hoodie is revealed to have the head of a winking Shinx on it. Above the Shinx is the word “mignon,” which is the word “cute” in French.

Next - Final dimentional duel I

Last - Final dimentional duel XI

Chapter 14 / Chapter 430

We're back to the boys! Pearl is already so done with the chairman and Mr. Footstep, I missed them so much. Regigigas in his emo era. Though the fact that Dia wants to understand what it's thinking at all costs is so cute.

Phone completely ignored. Though it's fair, I guess they didn't know about it until Manaphy gave it birth. Chairman is being very positive, by the way. I don't know how did he imagine to visit them all with just four people.

Oh my god I missed them so badly. If you're wondering: yes, this chapter will be long, no, it's not because I analyze anything, it's just me screaming my love for these characters.

I get that they didn't know it's ability, but why did Dia use a Normal type move when he literally just read Rotom's a Ghost type in the notes?

The most random finding ever. It was literally just there on the floor. I guess Rotom could have willingly dropped it there too because it wanted them to follow it.

Oh my god, I missed the double act so much. But question, doesn't this take place two/three weeks after DP? How did they do a whole new building just like that? Or is it another building separate from the one in DP? But I remember to have read in another translation that it was the same, I don't know.

Dia, I love you so much.

Okay but why didn't they read the notes before meeting Rotom? Babies I love you, but you need to learn something from Platinum too.

The greatest piece of art to ever exist.

Only Dia could befriend a Rotom, or any Pokémon at that, by having it offer you food and wash your clothes. I love him.

Another question: if she is on the route that brings to Shaymin, why is there the portal to the Distortion World? It shouldn't be even close.

This looks amazing. It gives a great idea of what a chaos this world is.

Uji and Paka! I missed you too! I spent this whole chapter almost on the verge of tears for all the comebacks I got while reading.

And there it is, the coolest panel I've ever seen. Giratina getting its revenge, destroying Dialga and Palkia's statue, recreating its own statue that once characterized the Celestica Temple in all its glory.

Oh my god, why is this volume over already?? Didn't I start it, like, a couple days ago?? And as you've seen, next chapter the final battle begins, which means THAT moment is coming. Start to prepare the tissues if you know what I'm talking about.

Ok, I’m gonna be real….

I miss playing Pokémon Nuzlockes!

I know I was waiting ‘til I get more followers on Twitch, but the more I think about it… most of the 10 followers I have there most likely have followed me because of my reactions to certain events. Such as when I was traumatized by that Gurdurr…

So… I wanna do something a little different…. I’m talking…

Randomizers!

So tell… If I do a Pokémon Randomizer Nuzlocke…

Here's a question. How much of pokemon have you played? (Mainline series, side series, etc) :3

Pokemon long rambling activated :3

Seriously long post

So before my mom banned pokemon from our house (probably when I was around 7?) we loved Pokémon. We never had a video game console but my cousins did. So technically pokemon stadium is my first pokemon game! Only ever the rentals haha. But we loved playing the mini games.

When my mom banned pokemon and sold all our plushies (rip butterfree plush, I'll get you back some day) it was a pokemon drought. Until my cousin went to college and gave me her pokemon card collection. (Supposedly the halo mew is worth $100?! But I treasure them) and the brainrot infected me once again.

I started learning everything I could about game mechanics. This was when Gen 5 came out in Japan so you didn't even have the English translations yet! I made lists of what my teams would be in each game, how to divy up the HMs, how to get certain egg moves. All without playing a single game lol.

And then I found playr.org. It had all the retro game boy games. Including Pokémon Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver, and Crystal. Unfortunately the saving system wasn't so great and got corrupted a few times (rip shiny ekans) but I did mostly play Silver or Crystal. (This is where the name Wren for my character was born!)

I craved more but I didn't know how to download emulators safely :( I watched playthroughs to get by. To this day let's plays are a comfort source for me <3

By the way I did all of this without my parents ever knowing. I was very good at hiding it from them XD

I think it was finally like freshman year of college when I figured out the pokemon fan games. I'm talking Uranium, Phoenix Rising demo, Ethereal Gates demo, Solar Light Lunar Dark, Sage, aka non emulator ones. Basically any I could get my hands on. I also started drawing fakemon in my sketchbook. I kind of want to revisit those some day. I still have the sketchbook somewhere.

Then I figured out emulators FINALLY. At least enough and got an emulator and mystery dungeon explorers of sky, MY BELOVED! I have played through the rom many times. I have a randomizer. Also a few years ago I found Sky Temple for editing the rom aka different starter pokemon. The discord server is always working on making new sprites so you can be any pokemon you want its very wonderful.

Junior year of college, I said I'd had enough. I spent an entire year hyping over Sun and Moon and my bestie/roomie convinced me to treat myself, something I literally never did. I bought a 3DS and Pokemon Sun and never looked back. I loved it. My first real pokemon game. (My parents were not happy when they found out lol). I spent so many hours. I got big into breeding perfect IV pokemon (idk why cause I never did online battles) or shiny breeding. I used to work til 11 pm some nights and before bed I'd just do some breeding. I would have the pokemon in the perfect ball and have all the egg moves and perfect IVs and nature and have the perfect nick name cause I was obsessive like that oof. I got ultra moon when it came out as well and loved it. I also bought pokemon X and Omega Ruby which I enjoyed. But Sun and Ultra Moon I played many times and bred so many perfect pokemon.

I did pick up roms around this time for Heart Gold, Soul Silver, Black and White and the sequels, and maybe Platinum? But they ran really slow on my computer so I never made it far. I preferred playing on my 3ds. But I still played quite a bit of Sky rom.

I was, less excited about Sword and Shield. I saved up a whole year to buy my switch and bought Lets go Eevee, Botw, and Sword when Gen 8 came out. I did inhale the entire game of Sword in one week, but I don't think I ever finished a second playthrough. The story was really disappointing and I did not like the gen 8 pokemon as much. It's hard when you're not a big fan of any of the starter evolutions, cause pressing B for every level up is tedious :(

I did enjoy Lets Go Eevee but after I loaned it to my bestie I had troubled getting back in. The ball throwing was a little off putting.

Oh I also bought Mystery dungeon Rescue Dx and I enjoyed that quite a bit!

Last summer I was struggling a lot with my emotions and frustration with my mom and as a form of therapy started spending money oof. I wanted a second DS so I could trade back and forth and make my life easier. It took a lot of bidding on Goodwill online but I snagged a second 2ds, legit copy of pmd sky! and pmd gates to infinity. And Pokemon Soul Silver! Also I bought the digital versions of gen 1 and 2 before the eshop closed.

I also bought Shining Pearl cause it went super on sale, but after I lent it to my bestie I haven't played since. I actually dont like too many gen 4 pokemon besides Glaceon, Leafeon, and Chatot.

Playing pokemon mystery dungeon on a 3ds instead of a computer keyboard was so much more satisfying. I played through Sky and loved it of course. Then I picked up Gates to Infinity which I never knew the story. I enjoyed it! I was and Oshawott with partner Snivy.

This brings me to last late summer, and the turtle brainrot set in and grew. Less pokemon, more turtles! I debated back and forth whether to get Scarlet or Violet up til the day it released. And then I just didn't. I watched playthroughs though. Seems pretty good and I like a lot of the pokemon, especially after gen 8 when I struggled to find enough to fill out a team of 6. I only like to use pokemon I like. I'm sure I'll get it someday but for now, turtles have my brain.

And that's my pokemon origin story! Still mad about my mom selling all our pokemon plushies. I do still have my cousins pokemon cards and I treasure them <3

I am very adamant about my pokemon having the perfect nick names.

Umbreon is my favorite pokemon <3

Not surprisingly this got very very long. If you made it this far, have a Leppa Berry <3
