please don't argue. feel free to express it if you have an opinion contrary to someone's confession but please do not argue!

note that the opinions expressed here do not necessarily represent my own!

To the person whose abuser is still roaming at large: You're not alone. Mine is also still around, and I also have no proof because the app I was emotionally manipulated and abused on no longer exists. Everytime I hear their name, everytime I see their Username-- it all comes back to me. And there's nothing I can do about it, because all the evidence vanished alongside the app.

So while I won't claim to understand your pain... you're not alone in this. I'm sorry you're going through this, Anon. Stay strong.

And to my abuser, the words I was too weak to say to you as a kid.

I hate you. I hope I'll never see you around again. And also, fuck you.

Sometimes I feel kinda outsided of Spe fandom because Kanto (specially this one), Jhoto and Hoenn characters are not my favs :( I am more into Sinnoh-onwards characters Dx

I love specialjewelshipping from the bottom on my heart and genuinely hate that it’s so overlooked because I find the other 2 popular Johto dexholder ships quite boring although I don’t hate on anyone who ships them.

[pokespe--confessions]

being a multishipper is so funny bc you'll see people fighting, saying "no, luckyshipping is better!" "no, originalshipping!" "no, specialshipping!"

meanwhile you feel like the Avatar, the bridge between worlds . like "why not all of the above"

Hugh is such a fun character in BW2, I wish he'd become a dexholder,,,,, i might even like him more than Lack and Whi?!??!!?

i really love reading pokespe but kusaka is so misogynistic sometimes? i dont see much othet people mention it but the difference in how he writes women & how he writes men is so… 😬 and also the female characters being consistently pushed aside in favor of the men drives me up a wall. love pokespe nonetheless

Sometime I see my abuser is still sometime active in the Spe fandom and I can't say anything because I don't have screenshots of what they done to me !

CW: Mentions of Abusive Relationships

People who claim that White is abusive in Agencyshipping are completely misreading her character. She knew that Black was a minor who didn't have the money to pay for the equipment, so she- as someone with more resources- decided to take over. Not to mention that, after the first shoot, she gave him a deep bow and asked if he could help her for just a few more shoots- way less than he would've needed to pay off the debt. Black sympathized with her dream; that's why he wanted to help her. It has nothing to do with her forcing him. Yes, she was pushy sometimes, but that's because- like Black- she needed to learn to be more aware of other ways of life and not be entirely self-focused. Not to mention that claiming there's a "power imbalance" between two fourteen year old kids is ridiculous; people are treating them like fully grown adults.

Ppl want more complex female characters and can't even handle White PokéSpe

I'm glazing Bill, but Gabby and Ty are actually my favorite non-dexholders :p (Bill is my favorite non-dexholder in FRLG though)

.

[pokespe--confessions]

Bill, followed by Mewtwo and Yellow are the best characters in FRLG.

Bill is so supportive and sees Red is going through a lot and actually tries to handle the teenager having a mental crisis well. He is so amazing in that arc.

Mewtwo gets listed just because I love how he only trusts Red and Yellow and he is just pretty chill and fun and cool.

Yellow, while my favorite character, doesn't do much but what she does do is badass. No other character can just raise their Pokemon's level like that. She was so badass in the first half of her screentime that she has to sleep for the second half.

.

[pokespe--confessions]

Bill should get a Pokedex.

He is more of a main character in FRLG than Yellow, and that is when she finally gets her own.

[pokespe--confessions]

Yes, Blake seems to have a lot of signs of sociopathy Antisocial Personality Disorder.

No, he does not deserve to be villainized or dehumanized for it.

i wish the first gen rocket admins' backstories were more explored in gsc or yellow, for example, one of them might be from a respectable family and had a lot of pressure on him etc. there's so much to think about and how they joined rocket

I only started reading the black and white manga because my favorite Pokemon characters make a cameo, it feels like a silly reason, but I’m still exited to have convinced myself to read something new

.

[stephanieyumyum]

yknow what. fuck it.

my theory for the winds and waves manga is that ms. wavychu is actually yellow's chuchu and this is how we get new yellow content.

[pokespe--confessions]

there's some really cool dynamics and some people aren't willing to acknowledge them because this fandom sucks at wanting to see past lot of character's first layer of characterization
