Pretty Pretty Please I Don't Want to be a Magical Girl: Villains

Our original Jessie and Misty, Rachael Lillis, has sadly lost her battle to cancer and passed away Saturday. May she rest in peace. 😔

Edit, even the official English Twitter posted on her death:

I realized its the 20th anniversary of Cave Story (Doukutsu Monogatari) so 15 years after I made the illustration for the Wiiware release, I've decided to redraw it.

Could finally update some elements that didn't have a consistent design back then.

Introducing the adopted son of Jet the Hawk, Rocket the Rooster! 😁

Some info:

Was found as an orphan by Jet when he was very young. He was taken under Jet's wing after being caught trying to steal from the Babylon Rogues. Despite initially being seen as an apprenticeship of sorts, Jet and Rocket eventually grew to see each other as father and son.

He is rivals with Stellar the Hedgehog and is love rivals with Camellia the Cat. Stellar thinks he is super cool, and she has a crush on him. Camellia hates him with a fiery passion. 😂

When he came out, he chose the name "Rocket" to cement his place among the Babylon Rogues.

He was raised to view Sonic (and by extension, Stellar) as rivals/competition. Jet is very happy to get under Sonic's skin by having his son outdo (and potentially romance???) his daughter.

Flirts with Stellar when they compete to try and get the upper hand by distracting her. She is too gullible to recognize he is just doing it to win.

Affectionately called "Rocky" by friends and family.

Both Sonic and Shadow don't like him being around Stellar.

Less of a showboat than Jet, but still has an ego.

Doesn't actually catch feelings for Stellar until she realizes what a dick he is and wrecks his shit. It is the second she kicks him so hard he sees stars that he understands why she is named "Stellar". By that point, of course, Stellar has written him off (much to Camellia's delight).

Man, first James Carter Cathcart (James and Meowth), now Rachael Lillis, the original English VA for Misty and Jessie is fighting cancer too.

Here's the link to the GoFundMe her sister created to help deal with costs.

The scene where Drax pets Rocket in order to comfort him after losing Groot in the first Guardians movie hits so different now after watching Vol. 3. When Drax first puts his hand on Rocket’s head, you can see him tense up, probably because most of the physical contact he has had up until that point has been followed by the infliction of pain. It also broke my heart when I realised that this was also probably the first time that Rocket had ever been patted or stroked in an affectionate way by anyone in his life 🥹

I figured out that in this modern AU, Team Rocket runs a shady pet (pokemon) store chain that may or may not illegally supply pokemon for sale, alongside pet supplies of varying quality. Their ultimate goal is to own a monopoly in the business.

Trusted and capable grunts catch or steal the pokemon, while others like Jessie and James do the retailing and become forgotten by Giovanni.
