What I admit I do like about early Pokemon is how rarely they went for the easy ideas first. They had to create 150 monster designs in one game, and I’m sure it could’ve been so easy to phone it in with some generic RPG-ass monster designs, but it took six generations for them to make a Pokemon based on a tree, seven generations for them to make a wolf. The grass type representation in gen 1 is palms, rafflesia flowers, pitcher plants, and cordyceps fungus

The first games introduced the concept of reanimating fossils, and the first fossils you can resurrect are horseshoe crabs, ammonites, and one (1) pteranodon. It took four generations before you could reanimate a dinosaur, and it took two more generations before you could reanimate a Tyrannosaurus rex

Gen 1 did have some generic RPG-ass monster designs (slime, snake, bat, Big Guy Made Of Rocks) but a lot of it is weird biology, visual puns, and references to Japanese folklore and pop culture. It was so much more important to make a Pokemon referencing the phrase “a duck comes bearing green onions” than a wolf, and I think that’s a load bearing pillar to the series’ ethos towards monster design

I know this is an ice cold take but watching TOS was shocking because I thought Kirk was a womanizer before going in and no it turns out he just loves falling in love.

[trekkiesagainstchastity]

Yes, he's a slut, but he's an emotional slut and he deserves credit for that

If you haven’t read Kirk Drift, read Kirk Drift.

This. …And honestly: watch the episode “Metamorphosis”, and not only acting but plain old dialogue both make it clear that the man’s a near-unreconstructed romantic. The sheer yearning after True Love damn near cracks the fourth wall from side to side, like the mirror of idiom. 😄

That’s my James T. Kirk.

The poke yuri... I figured a reverse of these two would be if Jacinthe had to be punk instead of Lebanne having to be fancy- inspired by my friend's thoughts on the DLC and it's alt dimensions.

This alt universe... Jacinthe is in a bit of a whirlwind- she didn't expect the poison of Mega Dragalage to pack such a punch! Well! A promise is a promise! Hotel Richissme's 'fight club' is thriving just as it ever was anyhow!

[donniehaspronouns]

hey young queers. I need you to hear me when I say part of growing up is learning to not care. part of growing up as a queer person is learning to abandon online discourse in favor of a “who cares, welcome to the club” kind of attitude. I promise you, you will feel so much less stress when you stop the infighting over slur discourse and identities you think don’t make sense. adopt a “I may not understand but it has no impact on me” mentality I promise it will be so much better for your mental health.
