Pokédex Entry 0020- Raticate

[thatsnotfriendship]

yeah, I count the Last Roundup as an AppleDash episode because the subtext IS there.

"wydm Applejack's not coming back, she loves me Ponyville!"

OKAY IMMA CRY TOO - NOT AGAIN. I love the Apples sooo much. Best characters fr.

And while it's not out of her character to do so, she seems to take a LOT of the action (to getting AJ back) first. Like, 75% of it. Not to discredit everypony else, RD is just loud about it and action-driven.

Here's another thing: Rainbow Dash never stops trying to get back AJ. And when she does, it's during sleep and she's worried when she's not watching her.

She's the only skeptical one. Knows her gf best!

But also, people tend to act this way when they think something's too good to be true. RD knows something's up.

Again, never she stops trying.

BUT SHE WAS GONNA RUN OVER A BUNNY?!

"Rainbow! Go back!"

"No time!"

(Don't understand why they didn't go back after, probably for comedic effect lol).

The Element of LoyaltyTM, everypony. (Also, AJ did lie, saying she would come to breakfast and tell. She didn't, but she could've said "I didn't specify which breakfast,").

Twi's face going from :) in pic one to :0 in pic 2.

Got her. Rainbow looks so satisfied with herself.

ADHD, which Dash may have (see Testing, Testing 1 2 3 for e.g), is often shown through impulsivity and heightened anxiety. I wouldn't call it straight up anxiety when Rainbow's being all skeptical, but it's definitely something similar. She's worried. Not all that AppleDash-y, just a little thing I liked.

Unrelated note: Bon Bon/Sweetie Drops is at all the group scenes, like the party and train station twice. Everyone else is a Mane6 character or an Apple - so I do wonder about the Bon Bon lore🤔...

Bonus: And this is what happens when you abandon your destiny. Your CM really does disappear :(

(Alolan) 0020 - Alolan Raticate

The Mouse Pokemon

Dark - Normal

2' 4" - Around the size of a Two-Toed Sloth.

56.2 lbs - Around the weight of a Bag of Dog Food.

From the Alola region.

Equally male and female species.

Evolved from Alolan Rattata (0019), is the Alolan form of Raticate (0020)

Info:

Alolan Raticate forms groups of Alolan Rattata to lead, and there are many groups of Alolan Rattata following Alolan Raticate across Alola which often get into territory disputes.

Alolan Raticate is picky about its food and restaurants where this Pokemon live have good reputations for their food.

This Pokemon is extremely greedy and keeps its nest so well stocked that there's always much more food than it could ever possible eat.

Alolan Raticate eats the most nutritious and delicious food its underlings bring, leaving whatever it deems unworthy for the Alolan Rattata.

January 15 - Alligator Bites Never Heal - Doechii

Alligator Bites Never Heal by Doechii

Spotify / Youtube

Phone did that weird thing where I watched that one clip of Doechii live at Tinydesk, then spotify was like "oh... here's a recommendation for the thing you saw on an unrelated app. dw about it". Spooky.

I'm glad I'm listening to more hip-hop tho. And Doechii does it well. Really well, actually.

Pokemon: Shiny vs. Default, 0019-0020

Alright back at it again, slightly late, but it’s time to talk about that Rattata, and oh thank you Arceus, the Alola form is here to provide some manually-chosen shiny colours.

Also yeah, I’m going to be doing Alolan, Galarian, and Hisuian forms in the same update as their original forms. Which means Meowth is going to be almost as long an update as Charmander, but we’ll get there when we get there.

For now, Purple Rat time.

Default, default, default! God the shiny looks terrible, the most mucus-y of all the green shines thus far. I hate it.

Now for the other Rattata.

Honestly not sure why Rattata of all Pokemon got the Alolan form treatment, but then a lot of the Alolan forms were weird picks. Anyway, as much as I was hyping up the non-algorithm shinies earlier... yeah I still prefer the default. This is as much as I can make myself care about Alolan Rattata, so let’s move on.

Now for that Pokemon you totally murdered on the SS Anne. Yes, you.

Gonna give it to the shiny this time. I like the more reddish colour, and it’s a massive improvement over Slime Rat up there, so points for that too.

Lastly, that Pokemon the Hardcore Nuzlockers use to cheese Ultra Necrozma.

Unlike the Kantonian form, there’s no colour differences between the two stages, and thus the default’s going to win again. 

Oh thank fuck I’m almost done with the Kanto Earlygame Pokemon. Just one more update, and it’s the one that’s best for actually playing the game.

Default: 23

Shiny: 8

Draw: 1
