20 (or for a sillier take on 19: whats your favorite salt? table salt? hawaiian pink salt? sea salt?)

19. Wild card: ask the mun any type of salty asks.
I don’t have a favorite tbh. If you’re asking in regards to taste, ngl of all the types of salts I had, all of them tasted the same to me. So, I really couldn’t tell you xD
20. If you’re feeling salty right now, this ask gives you a free reign to pour out your frustration.
Well…I think the whole National Dex situation with SWSH is dumb af, as I’ve said before. Here, I’m gonna go into more detail about how I feel & think regarding it all.
I don’t care if all of the pokemon are in the game, I don’t care if a lot of them don’t end up being in it. I’ve never cared so much about ANY pokemon, that I’d feel torn over whether I should get a game or not based SOLELY ON WHETHER I could acquire them in it.
But, it’s whatever if you do care. You do you.
My main issue with all of this, are the people that are attacking others who really don’t care about any of this fuckery. I’m in the group that are just looking forward to playing new pokemon games that SEEM LIKE they’ll be fun (and that’s the reason why I get any video game ever. Because I think I’ll enjoy playing it, nothing more and nothing less).
And what do I see? People saying things to my group, like “You sheep are a part of the problem, enabling Gamefreak” or “You’re spending $60 on this incomplete game? You’re an idiot”.
Like people really don’t know how to mind their own business, huh?
First and foremost, y'all are the fools here, thinking starting a boycott will do anything to impact SWSH’s sales & get Gamefreak / Pokemon Comp to notice your protest (and Masuda himself has btw, and he basically said “Yeah…I don’t care”). That’s wishful-thinking if I’ve ever seen it. You’d have to get hundreds of thousands, if not a million or so, of people to not buy SWSH ever to make a noticeable dent. And, we all know that’s never happening.
(Plus, I’m sure 80% of the people saying “I’m not buying the game” will end up buying it sometime in the future. Maybe not on release, but perhaps some months or a year later. So, their words obviously mean a lot PFFF)
Secondly, the game’s not incomplete to me. Like I said before, Idgaf about the pokemon. Not all of them being available doesn’t bother me at all. And, people like saying “They cut pokemon to make high definition animations, which they haven’t been doing!!!!”
I’m not gonna get into that debate, but…the game doesn’t look like dogshit to me. It looks great. And, that’s enough for me honestly. I’m not picky. Of course Gamefreak could and should be doing more, but I know they’ve been adding features then removing them + half-assing shit for years now. Them doing what they’ve been doing is not new to me at all. It’s just what they do.
So, yeah. This shit that’s been happening since E3 has gotten on my last nerve, and I can’t wait for SWSH to release so I can play Sword, and have a blast. And so the fandom can calm down.
......What if like, they only end up cutting like 100-400 pokemon (there’s at least 900 at this point, in case no one knew)? Folks out here acting like there’s only going to be 80 mons in the game, so if it turns out everyone blew things out of proportion? It’d be hilarious.
