i looooove pokémon npcs whose team members subtly imply something about them that's never touched upon in the story or at least never outright said. i love villains having friendship evos. i love trainers who commit hard to one aesthetic or vibe with their team (beyond simply sharing a type) and i love it even better when there's one random exception especially if that's their ace. i love when later down the line someone boxes the cute fun soft baby pokémon they used to have in favor of a seemingly stronger or scarier one to show that they're getting serious. i love when they have a pokémon that's difficult to get and raises lots of questions about them. i love it when the lore behind a pokémon fits the character to a T and i love it even better when it appears to contradict them. give me the story-gameplay harmony but better yet give me what appears to be story-gameplay dissonance but might actually have implications if we're willing to dive deep into it
Some swsh drawings I did,,, I wanted to put a valentines special on a side blog for swsh but i'm pretty sure that blog is refusing to work since nothing I put there is workin
I feel like Gen 8 is going into the forgotten dust stream of Gen 6, and has no Legends game to save it. I know it was only last gen but this is a Galar appreciation post. Look at Wooloo (the baby.)
And I know people complained about Hop but we had friendly rivals since Gen 3. Also he has a Wooloo!
And the fucking idiot of a champion. He has to do these dumb poses in order to live.
