#20 (how did you meet your partner pokemon?)

Kris was a gift from a relative from Paldea! I'd always wanted a dreepy for soooooo long as a kid but they're suuuuuuper rare in unova, not the best idea for a literal child to go looking for one all by themself lmao

[dreepycrawly]

#10 (what's the first Pokemon you evolved yourself) and #15 (do you generally battle Pokemon, catch them, or leave them be)? - @wyrmwiind

10) My gengar Shade, from a gastly to haunter! got him later than Kris but they typically evolve way earlier than dreepy do

15) Depends, really! A lot of research's gotta be hands off to observe in a natural state, but if I come across something particular special i'll catch it, be it temporarily or to keep around long-term. I typically only battle wild Pokemon when it comes to it however, Kris is at a high enough level that most beasties won't even wanna fight em lmao

currently looking into the possibility of a ghost-type eevee evolution, whether it be an eventuality, or existed in the past but not well documented.

little Veevee here is extremely fond of ghost-types, so we're gonna see if she has any reaction to prolonged exposure to ghosts!

no luck yet, but it's the only good way left i can think of, as, well. you can see how the commonly theorized method would be a very very bad idea,

[eeveekeeping]

OH i actually have a really cool answer to this!

in the last couple of years, researchers have been finding records describing and depicting a supposedly extinct species of ghost type that we believe may be an eevee relative or evolution! the areas in which these pokemon were seemingly found unfortunately seemed to rely mostly on oral history, and with the sinnoh restoration era, a lot of information unfortunately got lost :[ BUT! they seemed to be found mainly in wetlands, and they carried mud balls with them— either of those might be the key to the evolution, but i can’t say whether it would affect a modern breed of eevee, since we don’t really know what caused this pokemon to disappear in the first place 💔

[dreepycrawly]

YOOOOO??? Can't believe I never heard of it!! I say it's worth a shot, I've never been to Sinnoh before so I'd love to do some studies over there 👀

[dreepycrawly]

and i return! aaaaaa, watching ghost types for too long can really suck the life out of you haha… hm

Alright!

So, as many of you are aware, there has been an ecological anomaly that has resulted in Pokemon forms native to the past starting to reemerge.

These Pokemon have been placed in strange, unknown environments, and as such, many of them are very aggressive, making them dangerous as a result.

My professors at RotoU (a completely online college which I am enrolled in) have gotten in contact with other universities and organizations to put together the Renewal Acclimation Department, which will accept volunteers from all across the globe in order to work towards assisting the returning species to an unfamiliar world, as well as keeping the population safe.

They are, in fact, aware that it spells "RAD" and, to be fair, it really is.

In addition for any universities that take part in the Renewal Project (the whole goal I mentioned above), they will be counting volunteering with RAD as an acceptable amount of credits for your current degree path.

There are going to be two main roles given to volunteers, chosen by the volunteer when they sign up.

The first is Preservation and Acclimation, which is going to work on the more ecological side of the project. This includes transporting Pokemon to their home environments if displaced, preventing disputes between past and present Pokemon communities, etc.

The second role is Protection and Defense. This role is aimed towards the safety of both the modern population and the returning Pokemon. There have been a few reports already of Alpha Pokemon attacks, not to mention damages caused by others. In addition, however, there have already been concerns about illegal poaching of these past Pokemon, as there is little way to track the populations at this point. Those in this role will assist in protecting others from rampaging Pokemon, alongside protecting the returning Pokemon from unnecessary harm.

Volunteers are allowed to select one or both roles, but will be assigned one job at a time. I myself will be volunteering for both roles. A Teleport relay has been coordinated between numerous regions, allowing volunteers to travel between regions at a moment's notice if needed. Emergency Assistance visas are automatically procured for volunteers.

We will be working closely with both local law enforcement and Rangers to ensure the safely and ethical treatment of both humans and Pokemon during our projects.

You can find more information about RAD and the Renewal Project here, including additional legal information.

In addition, as this is a very stressful time for us, our mental health should taken into account. If you believe you need therapy and/or counseling, please contact [email protected]. RAD will be employing licensed therapists and counselors for the general public to schedule sessions with. Sessions through RAD will be completely free, as their services are either volunteered or paid for by universities/educational or scientific institutions.

Thank you for your time!
