Have you ever gone to the Paldea region?

Nope, all I've ever known's Kanto an' Sinnoh...but Paldea sounds like a cool place, I'd love t' go there sometime...maybe on vacation or somethin'!

Hey Orange, Pika here, y'know, your creator? I'm here to show you some stuff I made! I don't know if this game series exists in your world, but in my world we have a video game series called Kingdom Hearts, which I'm a massive fan of. The weapons in the game are called Keyblades and the characters have what are called Stations of Awakening, which are basically stained glass platforms used to represent the characters' hearts. They're seen when characters do what's called a Dive to the Heart, and they're really interesting. So where am I going with this, you might ask...? Well, I designed you your own personal Keyblade and your own personal Station of Awakening! I hope you like them!

There's your Keyblade, it's called High-Voltage Bonds and it was created purely from the strength of your bonds with your friends, human and Pokémon alike, though your bond with Thunderheart influenced most of the design aspects of it.

And here's your Station of Awakening! Sorry I couldn't include Red or Lady on here, it only allows for four characters per Station, so I had to use process of elimination and I decided that these four were the ones who had the most impact on your life. For the locations, it's supposed to be Viridian Forest on the left and Mt Coronet on the right, to represent your true home and your current home. And I gotta say, you look really cool holding that Keyblade of yours, I should draw you wielding it more often!

Hope you like these! And if I ever do something like this for you again you can bet I'll share it with you!

Whooooaaaa...That's so cool!!! I dunno if that game exists here either, never heard of it...but ya got me int'rested so now I gotta look into it! I know that we got the same game consoles an' stuff here thatcha do there, but I dunno if we got the same games ya do...🤔

Aaaaanyway, I LOVE that design! What'd ya call it, a...Keyblade...? It looks awesome!!! Love those lightnin' bolts! That kinda stuff's def'nitely my vibe! I can tell that's Thunderheart's influence, an' I jus' LOVE the idea that this thing was formed from the bonds I share with ev'ryone, that's real sweet an' wholesome! Jus' by lookin' at it I can tell who each bolt's s'posed t' be, which is jus' PERFECT!!! ⚡

As for that Station thing...yeah, I'd say ya got it right. As much as I love Red nii-chan an' Lady, the others jus' impacted my life more as a whole. That ain't to say that Red nii-chan an' Lady DIDN'T impact me, 'cause they DEF'NITELY did, an' I treasure my bonds with 'em just as much! 'S jus' that...well, I knew Yellow nee-chan WAYYY b'fore I knew Red nii-chan, an' I knew Dia an' Pearl WAYYY b'fore I knew Lady...Thunderheart bein' there makes total sense since she's my best BEST buddy, an' she was my first friend too! Love the inclusion of my true home, Viridian, I still miss it everyday, but Sinnoh's def'nitely the next best thing, so Mt Coronet bein' there too makes perfect sense. I love both Viridian an' Sinnoh, havin' one without the other on the Station thing wouldn't make sense t' me.

Anyway, amazin' job on both the Keyblade an' the Station thing! Thanks for sharin' 'em with me, an' now I'm seriously thinkin' 'bout lookin' into seein' if we've got Kingdom Hearts here...I wanna play it if we do...I wanna play it so bad...😅

I heard it's someone's birthday today? 👀 Hope you're having a nice day/evening/night!! Got you some Pecha Berry pie, hope you like it!!

I'm definitely gonna try this right away, I'll share it with Thunderheart too! Thanks a bunch for the treat!!! An' it's "Absol-utely" (haha, get it?) been a great birthday today!!!

Hey Orange! What's your favorite food, if you don't mind me asking...? Personally I like juicy and sweet fruits... And popcorn. What about you and Thunderheart?

Oh, hey! It's been a while since I last got an ask, so this is a nice surprise! My favorite food is Pecha Berries! They're super sweet an' juicy! They're one of the only things I'll actually eat 😅. As for Thunderheart, she really likes Chesto Berries since she's got a Modest nature an' likes dry food...y'know how it is with Pokémon, their nature affects what flavors they like an' don't like. She really likes Pecha Berries for snack time though! She thinks they're perfect for snacks 'cause they're sweet! We snack on 'em together often, I got a picture of us snackin' on 'em right here!

(Yeah, I wrote "Pecha Berries" on it, I just LOVE these things, okay? XD)

Anyway, thanks for the ask! Like I said it's been a WHILE since I last got somethin' to answer...it's been kinda borin' without anythin' to answer, y'know?

Hi Orange, since you originated from Kanto, have you heard that most Pokémon that you're familiar with, found pacifically in the Alola, Galar and Paldea regions that look completely different from there original counterparts. These are called Regional Forms, also known as Regional Variants, meaning they had to adapt a new typing, in order to survive in it's new environment. For example, in Alola, Vulpix and Ninetales gains the Ice-typing to thrive in the snowy mountains of that region, in Galar, Meowth gains the Steel-typing and has an exclusive regional evolution called Perrserker (Galarian Persian doesn't exist for some reason). In Paldea, Tauros gains the Fighting-typing and has two exclusive fire and water type breed forms (Paldean Miltank also doesn't exist for some reason).

Regional forms is pretty much Divergent evolution in the Pokémon universe.

However in Paldea, there a few Pokémon that were once classified as a regional forms but later identified as an entirely different species all together. These are called Convergent Pokémon, also known as Convergent Forms or Regional Fakes by others. For example: Tentacool is a jellyfish while Toedscool (Ground/Fungus) is a fungus (pacifically the wood ear fungus) and Diglett is a mole while Wiglett (Water) is an eel (pacifically the garden eel).

Also noticed how both of mons have very similar names and completely different types compared to there species that they evolved from. You'll probably guess what there evolutions are called by naming convention wise!

In a nutshell, we have land Tentacool and water Diglett. How fascinating!

Hey, sorry it took me so long t'answer this. THAT'S SO COOL!!! I especially love Alolan Vulpix an' Ninetales, 'cuz I got a Vulpix o'my own! Her name's Tails an' she's a sweetie, doesn't like t'battle, but she's an amazin' cuddle buddy! Her warm fur's great when it gets cold here in Sinnoh...it's SO COLD here in winter! Oh...I'm gettin' off track, sorry. Ummm...what else t'say...OH YEAH! Thanks for tellin' me 'bout these cool Pokémon! I'll hafta ask for some books on Alolan, Galarian, an' Paldean Pokémon now...I wonder if Yellow Nee-chan an' Red nii-chan could send some t'me...I'll see if I can call 'em later an' tell 'em all about it! Till then I'll see if Lady's got some books on those Pokémon...she's got books on EVERYTHIN'! I really hope she'll lemme borrow some if she does...I GOTTA READ UP ON THIS!!!
