Paras trainers are always so funny to me, because they'll be like "Oh! Mushy Cupcake Cheeks is being extra sassy today!" And Mushy Cupcake Cheeks just looks like:

being aspec in the world of Pokémon would be so fucking rad. Like why the fuck would I need romance when I can just go on a journey with my team of six super powered best friends as we take on the world via the power of our bonds

you know how like, there are some animal species where homosexuality is more common and stuff? do you think that happens with pokemon? like some pokemon species just randomly have more lesbians or smth

Yeah I think so I don't think it'd make sense if every single pokemon was heterosexual cause our world don't really work like that either so that seems unrealistic to me (in a game where there are electric rodents I know)

I don't know what rock these people are living under but Pokémon spinoffs definitely haven't gone anywhere

This post is an appreciation post for all the good recent spinoff games that don't get attention <3

Hickory is my favorite Trolls character, not because of his canon (all he did was flirt with Poppy, have a scene with the Smooth Jazz troll, and then have a liar revealed moment. Every other second he was vibing) but because of the grip he has on fans. I think I've seen about a dozen characters shipped with him, and I can see every single one of them as being canon.

The official uniform of the Explorer's Guild as shown by one of the Explorer Guild's newer teams, Explorer Team Tails and Scales!

Issued by the Royal Valor Guild, Explorer's Teams are given three pieces that make up their uniform: Melody Scarves, an Explorer's Bag, and a Badge. All three are to be worn during official outings by Guild members as to mark them as part of the Guild.

Image Text + More Information on Melody Scarves Below

The text reads:

Valor Royal Guild Uniform Guide - Explorer's Guild Edition

All members are issued melody scarves which have a variety of different powers.

They come in a variety of different colors and can be worn however the wearer pleases.

Explorer Teams are also assigned adventure bags that have been enchanted by the Arcanist Guild

The enchantment makes the bag much bigger on the inside than it looks on the outside.

Teams are required to display their badges as the color indicates what rank they are.

Ranks are determined by completed missions and determine if you are eligible to do certain missions.

More on Melody Scarves

A shameless play on PSMD's Harmony Scarves. Melody Scarves are Enigmalia's versions of the stat-boosting items from other games.

They are made from a special and rare fabric that the Merchant Guild is responsible for procuring, and then sent to the Arcanist's Guild to be fitted into scarves.

They are capable of granting the wearer one big boost to one of their stats! The wearer can change which stat is boosted by earning a certain "scarf ticket" by completing missions.

It's said that in certain locations and/or under certain circumstances, the scarves will give the wearer an untold boost of power...

Note: This is not for a real group or RP (well. not yet anyways), this is all for my fake pokemon group i've always wanted to make but dont actually want to run lol

They added sliders for various body parts in Pokémon go!!!! I am genuinely so happy about this. Look how cute I am

[puppyeared]

i think the reason why im so drawn to spirit tracks and pkmn scarvi is that having the legendary/princess as a companion rather than a goal that marks the games completion makes me feel satisfied the way i would after helping a friend

my brother always teases me about how I still havent finished botw after almost 7 years bc "id rather be out picking flowers" which i wont say is untrue. and yes i know Zeldas been holding off ganon for 100 years, yes i can get some sort of idea what her relationship with link was like by recalling memories and going through her diary. ive always loved botw for its unique storytelling and setting which makes it stand out, because it lets you get to know who you're saving.

but because theyre memories, it only works if theres something for the player to investigate that already happened. its retroactive (but effective nonetheless)

on the other hand, spirit tracks does something similar but instead of having the player try to piece together memories and interpret them as a spectator, you actually have an opportunity to get to know zelda yourself by talking to her and working together. besides making it a gameplay mechanic, giving the player control over how they interact with zelda makes it so much more personable.

and I find that making the goal feel personal instead of an obligation gives me more of a reason to work towards it. I know what kind of person botw zelda was but as the player, shes still very much a stranger to me. but spirit tracks zelda? thats my friend!!!! she invited me to go to the beach after we get her body back!!! i dont want to whip her to make her move faster thats mean :(

you know how hostage negotiators are trained to introduce themselves and get to know the person theyre negotiating with because its harder to hurt someone when you know what their favorite food is? its kinda like that, because it feels like im helping a friend than being told or led to do smth

and although i havent played scarvi myself, i feel an attachment to koraidon and miraidon even just watching playthrough clips because its like!! thats my weird scaly dog!! it loves sandwiches and we're friends!!! you know!!!!!!

History Fact

In the 1700s, an anonymous writer traveled to Sinnoh, Alola, and Kanto to write fairy tales told throughout those regions. The books were known as, “Secret Blooming Land” about a Whimmsicott following a Shaymin into a secret fantasy land, “Mystic Song under the Moon” about a Primarina who finds a group of Clefairy and Umbreon and goes on a journey with them to give power to her songs, and “Shadows in Haunted Mansion” about a young boy who sneaks into a haunted house and gets tricked by a Gengar and other Ghost type Pokemon. The books became very popular and are still common fairy tales told by children to this day.

Can we just appreciate how this image of the Toyota Miraidon (from the Toyota X Pokémon Miraidon Project) is pretty much perfect for an Icon?

But also just the fact that they did both Low Power Mode & Drive Mode Miraidon as well as being game accurate as they could

Thankfully this Miraidon won't be consuming all your sandwiches...

Unpopular opinion: I wouldn't like if Sega decides to start making the Sonic ships canon, neither I like the coments saying "I wish this ship is canon/let's hope this ship is canon on the future" canon ships limites so much the character on Sonic universe (if you start to thinking about it, Vector and Amy are the only characters canonically in love whith someone... And the development was mostly for comedy.)

Sonic is a kids franchise whith a kids target and it woult depelop that on a cliche kids way, wake up. Make some fanart and cool comics about your fav ship instead, that's WAY better than canonicing ships

Flan knocks on Jokull's door and waits for him to open it up before putting on big teary eyes, "Hello Teacher Sir, would you like to buy some treats that my Mommy made. I'm so cold....we need the money so I can get a new LUCCI sweater to keep us warm at night. Please won't you spare a few hundred dollars..."

Its worth 10 US dollars
