Weird headcanon (that turned into a whole au) but I like to think that Ash has a YouTube channel and he has this "my dad is the CEO of Roblox" type joke and it basically boils down to this (he jokes about Satoshi Tajiri being his dad)
I like to think he sees hacked Pokemon and goes "my dad is the CEO of game freak *holds tajiri satoshi pic* he can ban you"
I have a theory... one could say it's a game theory... hehehehehe...
by this logic Red's backpack is the cartridge slot/battery pack...
do what you want with that information
i do this with all the other red/ash counterparts too
like come on look at him
so apparently I have lore I never dropped but at one point in time I DID use gacha life and this was my main oc and kinda self insert named "Cherri" drawn by one of my peers @flowrelfolliclefallacy and shes so stinkin adorable I love her!!!!!!!!!!!
So I didn't really make much lore for her and i'm gonna kinda be reiterating certain points but there is not really much info on this OC and honestly it's kind of the point?? she was made back in my gacha life days and she was kind of my self-insert but also her own separate character??? (Which I kind of tried to make clear considering she has a slight cherry theme which is opposite of my favorite fruit strawberries and i kind of associated her with the color purple for some reason even though my favorite is pink?? and then I started kind of giving her a friend group that wasn't really based off of my real friends that I had or anything…?)
Even though her name is "Cherri" we don't even know if that's her real name or not and everything about her I just couldn't really decide so it ends up being one vague headcanon (btw do you guys just kind of headcanon your own characters like you want to play around with an idea but don't want to commit to it??)
All I know is that she's young (10-16) likes anime and Hello Kitty and supposedly all the stuff that I like and she's probably into fashion or something… i get the opinion that she's really cheerful and somehow makes everything about her current fixation (considering she's doing exactly that in a video I made like 3 years ago atp which is where the screen cap originates from)
You know what? I'm gonna pull a VOCALOID fandom move and give her the most META headcanon EVER by saying my girl has a Pinterest board called "new me" because she is constantly reinventing herself as a meta reference to the fact that I never truly planned anything for her 😭😭😭
To me she's one of those characters that I kind of just threw things onto until it stuck and nothing really did with minor exceptions, everything about her is so disposable and fluid like the concept of fictional characters as a whole, the only way I can describe this is with Vocaloid because they got this concept down to a T (pun intended) and the Teto song "Spoken For" PERFECTLY expresses this.... especially this part where it goes "i could be a friend or I could be a foe, you make the decision and it's all I know… I could be a canvas, i could be a doll… I don't think I'm even something real at all… I could be a woman, I could be a man, look into the mirror tell me what I am.. oh i could be a difference, I could be the same, try to give me meaning it's a losing game…" (the part mentioning gender is extra fitting considering I made a genderbend for her at one point that I never clarified the relationship between them so it's like a kagamine rin and len situation where they could be siblings, lovers, or the same person and we would never know)
whatever my yap is over please somebody tell me then I'm not the only one who makes ocs before realizing that you have no purpose for them 😭😭😭

i made this "get real" gif after spending like the whole day making this random ahh photoshop of tajiri satoshi (when he was a kid) wearing trainer red cosplay I don't know what this means help
its so sato over rn as I overthink my "tajiri satoshi is that you?!!!?!!?11111?!11!!? jokes"
on topic the thing these 2 got in common is that they both quiet like tajiri been gone since what like 2016 and is executive producer on like every game (which implies he's on that game dev grindset) and actively avoids the press like the plague and red literally runs to a mountain and hits the poke trainer grindset while avoiding human interaction like if this ain't convincing idk what is atp bro should just say "oh yeah he's me when I was a kid btw"
like bro tajiri had a bug fixation and red prob 100 has a pokemon fixation considering the copycat dialog
we cannot forget the rival character having shigeru as a default name like there's less parallels here but ig what him and miyamoto have in common is that they are always ahead and have good ideas or something grandson oak must be cooking if he's ahead of the player
like tajiri not beating the red allegations bro 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
reading the Satoshi tajiri manga and this got me
