A Trainer was killed recently by a wild Hydreigon and just…for Arc’s sake, I wish people had more common sense. This was not a random or unprovoked attack. The area that the Hydreigon lived in is closed off to the public. There are signs posted up and a fence that blocks the trail leading to its territory, yet the Trainer still entered, most likely to try to catch a powerful Pokémon. What he didn’t know is that this was a female Hydreigon with a clutch of eggs. Naturally, she felt that her nest was being threatened and retaliated. Is the situation tragic? Absolutely. A young Trainer lost his life, his parents lost a son, the Sylveon he had with him was not only injured in the attack, but lost its Trainer and will possibly be rehomed, along with his other Pokémon. The Hydreigon is now considered a man killer and will be euthanized, despite the fact that she was only protecting her eggs. Then of course, you have the idiots on social media who don’t know the full story saying that all Hydreigon are dangerous and should be killed on sight. These are the same people who won’t say a word about the Dragonite who have done the exact same thing for the exact same reason. Dragon-types are territorial. They are dangerous, especially in the wild. Hydreigon are far from being the only Dragons that cause injuries or deaths. This wouldn’t happen at all if people would just stay out of their territory.

For some unknown reason, captive Caterpie almost never use their horn to create a stinky deterrent. Wild Caterpie seem to default to this smelly behavior whenever Pidgey are nearby.

In a study, eight out of ten captive Caterpie preferred to use String Shot over using their horn when presented with an image of a Pidgey. Some older individuals, which were nearing Evolution, even used Bug Bite on the pictures.

One group of researchers believe that the captive Caterpie are more reliant on stronger anti-predation behaviors due to a more predictable diet. Instead of scrounging for their preferred plants, captive individuals are provided with calorie-dense foods that allow more activity.

hey hey hey young trainer look at me. look at me. sometimes pokemon aren’t battling pokemon. it’s not because you’re a bad trainer it’s because some pokemon just aren’t fit for battling either because they don’t want to or other reasons. you don’t have to push your pokemon’s boundaries i promise you sometimes it’s neither of your faults. sometimes pokemon don’t or can’t battle. ok? ok.

pro tip for scizor owners: get building blocks, especially the ones that are hollow and have holes in them so the scizor can slider their claws in. They love that shit. They love just picking things up. I am giving my brother’s Scizor building blocks and he’s just stacking them.

Literally just give your scizor anything to pick up, so long as it’s not easy to break (older scizors will understand how to hold things gently but like…giving them something that could pierce or get everywhere still isn’t a risk you should take) they will be so entertained. Bonus points if there’s something inside like a treat they have to find a way to get the treat out.

Happy Saturday!

Our resident Noodle is always, ALWAYS looking for a snack, and sometimes he gets a little overzealous around feeding time. He was brought to us completely covered in stuck shed from improper husbandry and severely underweight, but look at how beautifully he shines now!

Noodle will be listed as “available for adoption” starting early next week. I can’t wait to find this goofy little guy the right home.

Over 6 months in the making (mostly bc procrastination) but I finally compiled my Kanto Gym Leader Magazine series. I love the idea of an in-universe style fashion publication where they all do interviews about their hobbies and stuff

Want something like this for your own OC? My commissions are open!!
