While this side account is going to be a random assortment of whatever it's also gonna be me posting a lot about my Pokemon trainer OC so here's her deets!
💜 Aviva
💜 Ghost-type trainer
💜 Bookshop owner
💜 Shipped with Gordie (Godiva baybeee)
💜 Carrd:
I wish folks would realize that you can just... dislike a character. You don't need to formulate a reason using social justice terms and you don't need to make a whole ass thread trying to justify some imaginary moral high-ground. You can just, not like them and move on lmao
I need to clarify that I wasn’t trying to be edgy or anything like that! As a kid I was obsessed with animals so my grandpa always rented animal documentaries for me. He just so happened to rent one about hyenas that week and I had a new favorite fact. 😭😭😭
can't wait for the pokemon fandom to develop nostalgia goggles for swsh just so we can all agree that swordbert and shieldbert are objectively the funniest npcs
@MotostokeQueen
I DID I DID !!! It was filmed at the LA zoo and they had us paint animal faces on paper plates. He walked by and said "that's a very nice zebra!" and I felt like ✨ an accomplished artist ✨ because he recognized what I drew (even though like... it was painfully obvious LMAO)
really cannot overstate how badly we need to bring back the sentiment of "don't feed the trolls" because i'm tired of seeing the most abhorrent and purposefully vitriolic shit on my tl because someone decided to qrt it for le epic takedown
Gengar is only the face of Ghost Pokemon because of genwunners. The Chandelure line is superior in every way and should have be the one to receive a Gigantimax form.
"this pokemon discourse wouldn't be happening if the game based it's newest region off of [x] instead of spain"
the effects of colonization are so widespread and interwoven with the world that no place is without this bloody history. this is why education/discussion is key.
@avocatto13
NO 😭 I remember meeting Big Bird and Grover though! They split up us kids into smaller groups so I think they may have had them filming different segments with different characters? I remember being upset that I didn’t see Oscar LMAO
"Gen 9 is pushing away Gen 8!!"
we've been with galar for the past 3 years get over it + this is how numbers work + this is how pokemon gens work + L + ratio +pokemon go get some bitches
i know every pokemon is someone's favorite pokemon but it still makes me emotional seeing how excited people get whenever i make a pattern for a less popular pokemon 😭
"larry is so boring, i don't get the hype he's just Some Guy™️"
my brother in christ that is literally the appeal. he shows that in a world where gym leaders are fashion models, rock stars, and ceos that even an average schlub can attain that position and ngl that's really neat !
@stilbie
tbh it was more of a sound bite because they asked us all the same question: "what's your favorite animal and why?"
IIRC the final product was just a quick montage of the kids giving their answers along with a short clip of said animal. My answer never made it into the montage 😔
it's clear that gamefreak is afraid to use other parts of the world as new regions because this is a conversation they will have to navigate.
that said, i believe they have the ability to do it as they have done so in the past but whether they feel it's "worth it" is hard to say.
My only Pokemon hot take is that the legendaries for Galar should have been dragons. Like... I love the dogs but the UK literally has mythology about dragons at war shaping the region. IT’S NOT EVEN SUBTEXT IT’S JUST THE TEXT.
once i saw a dude wearing a shirt that said "my favorite disney villain is my wife" and i legit thought he meant that his wife was a sexy bad bitch
but then he started yelling at her bc she needed to use the restroom so that's what i get for giving them the benefit of the doubt
@FloatsHavenArt
YEAH LMAO
LIKE (lack of) character depth in Pokemon aside you can... dislike a character and not make a whole THING about it lmao DID THE DANGANRONPA POWERPOINTS TEACH US NOTHING???
every conversation about putting firearms in the hands of teachers ignores the fact that while you can teach people how to use a firearm, you can't teach them how to take a human life.
if you're sad this is a sign to draw your two biggest comfort characters as the steven meme. yeah my ocs my comfort character. yeah my ooak lagoonas my comfort character.
Aight I’m gonna go in for my surgery now so before the doctor starts rifling through my guts like kids with a piñata I just wanna say; Gordie Pokemonsword is best boy, Cats (2019) was good actually, and remember that I love you 💜 I hope I can see you all soon!
pokemon tcg really looked at me and said “oh we know you like broad shoulders, you filthy caucasian enjoyer” because nothing else will explain that gordie card i’m so angry i’m so upset the nerve the audacity i’m gonna buy 200 booster packs i’m gonna eat his card i’m so angry
anyway, twitter has so warped how we handle conversation that simple discussions are seen as angry contributions to discourse or some bizarre call to cancel the subject in question.
this isn’t a thing bad/thing good situation. it’s just part of a discussion that’s been ongoing.
anyway guillermo del toro’s pinocchio is a genuine work of art that really needs to be seen on the big screen to truly appreciate the sheer breadth of the creativity and talent on display and also it made me cry super hard okay thank you 💜
i feel like people who get so bothered when you give a canon trainer a pokemon (that's not in their established team) and disagree so angrily with your choice haven't considered the most important fact: i like that pokemon :)
Now that all OCxCanon zines have reached the contributors who have requested one I can finally post my entry! 💜💛 Thank you SO MUCH to everyone who submitted and supported this little community project. It was my absolute honor to help run it and I cannot thank you all enough!
