Double especially if those grass types are affectionate like the Lilligant.
well, what else am i gonna do, not hug them???? not hug my own darling victoria, even though she REEKS of SWAMP?
(biased voice) how could you say no to that widdle face?
I cant imagine how awful it is for people with hay fever and allergies to be around strong grass types.
this. this is how to survive my job.
and this.
What is your favorite pokemon?
feraligatr. this answer is not at all biased and is the objectively correct answer.
Who is your favorite pokemon to watch?
it depends on the day, honestly. the water-type enclosure is usually packed on very hot days, for instance, so there's usually excitement as we try to keep everyone cool (the fire-types are the least exciting place because they're either happily lazing or melting miserably). the greenhouse is a hot mess from february through may, as luvdisc day stuffs it full just in time for spring.
but if there are any pokemon staying with us that are smarter than a growlithe, they're always in the spotlight one way or another.
How are those Lilligant you had to shelter?
well, luvdisc day's gonna luvdisc day *darth vader respirator noises*. no more new liligant, thankfully.
we've managed to adopt or foster out some of the liligant since last year (thank you, erika, for your generous donation to our greenhouse supply fund, i'm sure the perfumes you're developing are lovely).
the rest are keeping on as well as they can, and as such have developed new games in the year they've been here. we have imperial kanto court drama, debutante ball, beauty contest, and competitive sunbathing (as you can see, they're rather sedentary flowers.) they are thankfully healthy enough to coat half the shelter and all of our clothes in pollen, even with contraceptive measures in place. all volunteers are now on vacuum duty until october.
(thank you also, erika, for adopting tsareena the rib-breaker and her brood, i've heard she's become a holy terror on the kanto gym circuit.)
Are there any Pokémon on the island that are naturally hazardous or require extra precautions when treating? Like Cursola or some poison types that might be dangerous to touch?
For any staff hired on the island, one thing I have to express as a clear note to this line of work, that you can get injured by any Pokemon, big, small, young, or old, they all have the potential to do critical damage while working with them. All staff are by law required to wear specific safety gear when handling certain Pokemon yes, anything with spores or gasses need masks, and often goggles, anything poisonous needs gloves, overcoats, even hazmat suits in some cases. It’s all species dependent, situational, and also very much down to regional law. The island falls between johto and hoenn in a sort of no-man’s-land area legally speaking, so when handling PPE we typically refer to the medical fields guid to care, rather than a regional law-set, as those vary from place to place.
I must admit, I have a mildly potent resistance to poisons, and am more than happy to wrangle aggressive or difficult pokemon, so when something truly dangerous to the staff comes in for a visit, I will not subject them to that kind of work unless they show an active want to learn how, and even then it’s a case by case basis, if I don’t think they’re ready, they won’t be put in that danger. They all know however that this job comes with risks, it’s part of the work.
As for species specifics, we tend to get a lot of trouble with beautifly, highly aggressive and underestimated species. Zubat can cause issues with blood born pathogens and biting, coupled with a cry that can confuse anyone who’s caught without ear protection. Anything with a fighting type nature can be uh…challenging, at times. Ghost Pokemon can be tricky to pin down for work, poisons have a knack for making staff sick if their gears not on right, electric types can be tricky, thankfully not the species we specialise in or get often. I think the one Pokemon we get a lot of that is regularly the reason we get the injury report forms out for is drowzee and hypno. You can put masks and gloves and even armoured gear on to spare yourself injury, but to treat a pokemon in many cases, you must be able to see the Pokemon, and if you can see that species, they can catch you in a hypnosis state and escape while youre just stood there in some fanciful daydream state. It’s quite irritating, thankfully I have Pokemon who stop it so I’m usually the one to handle that kind of patient, they’re often booked in for treatment on my days in office, but sometimes on my days off I still get messages that someone’s been caught by that little trick by walk-ins at the clinic.
We as a team are wary of psychic types, some have been known to cause lasting brain damage in cases all over the region, so I try to take those jobs and spare the staff the stress. Val keeps them out of my head, and they can be treated with care and respect, making the process as painless for both parties as possible. We try and lessen any anxieties for those who aren’t comfortable with the doctors, and hopefully in turn reduce the chances of injury to all involved moving forward.
Ghosts can also pose issues with their energy steals, but you can put cleanse tags in your pocket and they can’t touch you so easily, a simple fix for the majority of spooky Pokemon who come through the doors, save for the very powerful ones.
you know what time of year it is
i'm posting these up all around town today, and i'll put some around school tomorrow!
Why do some pokemon evolve via trading? Just asking as some one who loves the Timburr line
trade evolutions are fascinating. Only a few pokemon can retain the energy for evolution in such a way that it can be used upon a life path swap.
let me be clear, a trade evolution does NOT only encompass swapping a pokemon with another trainer, it has a lot more to it than that. Notably, another trainer doesnt need to be involved.
In a regular evolution, Pokemon get to a certain point and have enough energy compiled and stored, that the energy is put into an evolution, much like releasing a pressure valve. The longer you leave that energy to sit and accumulate unused, the more odd mutations start to happen in a pokemon, often however, it is unproblematic, and only results in unique growth habits. I have however seen Graveller with 20 arms, and Bulbasaur with bulbs so fat from holding energy that they need to be divided, all because the energy used for evolution has been either resisted by the individual (yep, a pokemon can choose not to evolve on its own terms, though it can be a battle of stamina to resist and some fail anyway), Or theyre helped by a trainer or some outside force to retain the energy and stay unevolved.
In the cases of trade evolution pokemon however, we see a unique trait that a lot of item evolution pokemon have, in that they dont have an upper floor for their stored energy. They can just keep stacking it away, and it tends not to be a problem for them at all, unless done far too quickly.
The thing that allows them to evolve in the end, is their own free will, and change. It is not the act of trading that is what causes these evolutions, it is the new path. The unknown as an individual steps into a whole new chapter of their life. Change comes, and they expend the stored energy to evolve into something that may aid them in their next big adventure. You could liken it to sending a child off to college, more often than not, theyre going to come back a new person in many ways.
It goes without saying, that you do NOT need another trainer to trigger a trade evolution, it simply is called that for ease. Trading one life for another is where the phenomenon happens the most, but in actuaity if you release a pokemon, and that pokemon also wants to go off and start its new journey, that too can spurr on their evolution. If they want to start a new life with a herd, or come live with you from the wilds, that is enough. It only needs to be a change so drastic and wanted, that required new adaptions.
Sometimes people trade pokemon and the evolution doesnt occur, which usually happens for one of a few reasons, the first being when there is no want from the pokemon to leave, if the trade or change is forced upon it, and it is not willing, then the pokemon will not evolve. The second big one is that they simply dont have enough energy stored away. Evolution still takes a lot from a pokemon, so very young, untrained, or inexperienced pokemon man also not evolve upon trading, and need to be helepd along the way a little. The evolution is often staggered in these cases, and will come later once work has been put in.
So were yall gonna tell me that people make coffee shop aus or was i supposed to find out by myself
did you like
not know that???
All my fanfiction knowledge comes from Futaba and Yukari. Futaba reads the most batshit insane things and Yukari likes found family shit.
Despite my appearance I do not actually frequent fanfic sites
at least batshit insane is better than zubatfam insane
My thing is. Cake knight use to be camp. I miss camp cake knight. If youre gonna do cakefam in a tonally lighter series can it at least be camp cake knight
But yeah Taba just. She just finds the weirdest shit?????? Like. Sometimes ill get texts from her that are like "hey ren i just found a Featherman AU where Feather Red is a worm. Do you want it?" Followed up with "Oh no wait its smut nevermind"
Which Pokemon is the most likely to sing you the song of their people at 4am?
Believe it or not, oddish. They are the ones who sing the moon to sleep before they bury themselvs for the day hours, and my god, maybe i'm bias, maybe its because theres just so many of them on the island, MAYBE I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A LIE IN ONE DAY.
But 100% those little fat onions love to tell you mornings inbound, so summertime 4am? Yeah. Oddish cries as far as the eyes...and ears, can perceive. I love them, but they test me.
Winter thought. Stantler, and boy are those some loud low calls, far easier to sleep through at least, more haunting and less jolly, but unmistakable.
oh yeah i'm 18! yay!
able to legally... uh... hang on do i get any legal privileges this year?
OH! credit card!!!
i can officially have my own credit card and my debit card limits go up too!!!
what should I get myself???
MY ROTOM IS IN MY LAPTOP HOW I DO I GET HIM OUT
insert flash drive

repeat when your rotom inevitably does it again because its opened Pandoras Laptop and learned about grand new frontiers like Video Games and MewTube
WHO THE FUCK WAS LISTENING TO THIS.
STOP MAKING FUN OF ME FOR LIKING AMERICAN EMO MUSIC WHEN ONEEEEEE OF YOU LISTENS TO THIS SHIT
wait what is this channel
these are not actually rips of video game audio.
this is...
gonna be listening to all of these now goodbye!
Um, happy new year!
So, uh. Dad got me a pokeball dex as a gift!
If you don't know what those are, then, um. Basically, it's like a pokedex, but made of paper, you fill it out yourself, and it's about making pokeballs instead of catching Pokemon.
My new year's resolution is to try to fill out the whole thing by next year.
So, uh. Wish me luck with that!
Pelipper Mail!
Enclosed is a bag of milk chocolate chips, originating from Johto. There is a Sanrio-styled picture of a Miltank on the package.
The note attached reads:
