Fox Obsessed Dork Ahead

About Me Name: Zyoko Hawkein Pronouns: they/them Location: Canada Birthday: July 9th Hobbies: Drawing, Playing D&D, Video Games Hey there and welcome to my random little corner of tumblr. I'm Zyo and I mostly post art here, or different little things that catch my interest. Especially fox images, I MIGHT have a bit of an obsession with foxes.

It took me a week, but I've now drawn all of the new Gen 10 starters a bunch! The three sets will be sticker sheets for upcoming events which I can't want to see printed.

As for the pokemon themselves, it made it all the harder to pick a fav. I'm definatly gonna need to wait until final evos and types are known before I can actually decide for sure. So far I'm shockingly leaning towards Gecqua ever so slightly. I don't know why, they were just very fun to draw.

As for my guesses on final types-

Browt - Grass/Steel (This is the one I'm most unsure of) Pombon - Fire/Fairy Gecqua - Water/Psychic

What are your theories for final typing? For myself I'll be cool with anything we haven't seen before with starters/not mono type.

Would you rather spend a day running errands in + or - 30°C?

30°C (86°F)

-30°C (-22°F)

I've never been anywhere colder than -3°C but I'll still choose freezing over sweating.

[filthburger]

over a quarter of those polled says they'd rather die horribly of hypothermia than get a little sweaty and i really really try not to go here but yeah i dont have trouble believing this is the celibacy website. extremities rotting and falling off like "yeah but i can always put another layer on"

[quasi-normalcy]

You know what, I've literally done both of these things many times and I promise you from the bottom of my heart that the heat is worse. Like, you don't fucking "die horribly of hypothermia" or lose extremities if you dress for the weather. Way more people die of heatstroke than hypothermia.

[andmaybegayer]

I think this one does also really depend on more than heat. Both options are awful in high humidity but +30 high humidity is potentially deadly while +30 dry is like, basically fine.

[the-grey-tribe]

There's got to be a "risk thermostat" joke in there.

[shabbytigers]

this is silly. i’m a heat hater, i would ~always rather be cold, but -30 is vastly colder than 30 is hot and i’d obviously rather deal with a horrible summer day than a moderate to severe frostbite risk??

look. last monday night was -10 C. it was fuckass cold. whoa cold. i was uncomfortable, but it was manageable in principle, like, one more layer and i can fuck with it. the thing is though that at that point there’s so little affordance left. what if there’s a strong wind? what if you get stuck outdoors a few extra minutes? any random trivial nuisance, bam, you’re in a worst-case scenario. at one point monday night i had to wait on a windy elevated s-bahn platform for six whole minutes and it was straight out of jack london. time slowed. my lungs hurt on the inhale. the air felt dangerous. six minutes was challenging. for fifteen and up i’d demand full ski gear (for 1980s vermont values of ski gear: balacavas, sock and glove liners, alla that crap)

… and you’re suggesting twenty whole extra-fat centigrade degrees lower than that?

before wind?

if the context is you’re offering me a free trip to antarctica and all the specialized gear for it, we can talk. short of that it’s a no from me, dawg

[the-grey-tribe]

I assume quasi normalcy is Canadian and accustomed to these temperatures.

But you are in Berlin, right? You're in a city that is famously bad at clearing slow and ice of roads. Also good luck waiting for an s-bahn in Berlin at -30°C. I'm pretty sure at that point these unmaintained yellow museum pieces just freeze to the rails.

I mean, would you rather run errands in Miami at -30°C or in Helsinki at +30°C?

[garmbreak1]

I know, personally, that I am utterly useless above 25C, but I have everything I need to do some running around in -30C, and I've gone to work in -40 before.

[zyoko]

I don't do well in heat what so ever. Anything above 20c makes me uncomfortable and at 30c I *HATE* going outside. But -30c? Meh. It's annoying sure but as long as you have the right gear you'll be fine. I've had to walk to work in -50c before after all. So yeah, I'd take the cold over the heat. As long as the sidewalks aren't a sheet of ice the whole way. If they are? Indoors no matter what for me. XD

*gathers all of the people in the world who write the number 7 with a little dash in the center of it so I can study them like little critters and find out what makes them do that*

[audpaints]

There’s actually a lot of history regarding the development writing systems and why there are different visual representations of numerals, but the short answer is: it’s regional, and you probably picked up how to make your numbers look based on your parents or your primary school teachers

[ruusverd]

I do it out of spite because in grade school a kids detective story identified the culprit by saying NO American wrote their sevens with a line and I thought that was super flimsy evidence and it made me so mad I started putting a line through my sevens so the fictional detective would be wrong and then kept doing it for several decades since.

[mikkeneko]

I do feel one can’t underestimate the “elementary school child taught themselves how to do this Out Of Spite” crowd

[galacticcrash]

Do you remember the first RANDOM* shiny Pokemon you've found?

Yes (tell me :V)

I think so? Maybe? (tell me anyway :V)

No :(

I've never found a random shiny

I don't play pokemon

Voting ended onNov 17, 2025

*by random i mean non-scripted, not hunting for it actively, you're just wandering around in any game and you just found it somewhere

(tell me the game too, not just the pokemon :V)

[zyoko]

Not just first random shiny, first shiny EVER! (besides scripted red gyarados)

Some random day I decided to reset my Pokemon Platinum game to just kill some time. I never planned on saving over my actual game, as it had well over 100 hours of playtime and I wasn't gonna lose out on the mons I loved. Then I find a shiny starly before the first gym! Yes, I was mad. No I didn't get to keep it.

Bonus story. Second shiny ever was a poochyena in Omega Ruby, before I got pokeballs.

I didn't get my first shiny to keep in a pokemon game until Moon. My luck is just that bad with shinies. XD;

Catober 2025 . Part 2 of 2

And here we have the second part of this collection of doodles! If you haven't seen the first, check it out here!

As I said, this was a really enjoyable collection to do as a whole. Some prompts were defiantly harder then others but deciding to jump back and forth to what ever prompt I had ideas for helped give me time to plan out the more difficult ones. The only one I knew for sure had to be the final was Halloween, just cause the idea of our kitties Earl and Latte trick or treating was adorable. And yes, they do have those costumes for real.

I think the most difficult prompt for me was Paperclip, but in the end the Clippy kicker worked perfectly so I'm glad I waited until the right idea hit me. The easiest was Ice Cream. Seriously I'm so damn happy with that one and I will for sure get that one digitized at some point!

Again thanks to isa.b.e.e on instagram for the prompt collection! And I hope everyone has a Happy Halloween!

You can find the original prompt post here.

Catober 2025 . Part 1 of 2

Part 2 of collection can be found here!

Sooo... my partner Karu showed me this cool drawing prompt list at the start of October and my brain latched onto it and didn't let go. Yep, 31 prompts, 18 days. Normally these big month long challenges I fail at for one reason or another, but being loose with the schedule and order helped a ton!

These were all drawn with just a highlighter, pen, and sometimes a sharpie. Which for me is becoming the best way to just sketch and keep everything loose. Some of these I do plan to redraw and complete digitally through the month but that I'll pace myself more with.

I just want to shoutout isa.b.e.e on instagram for creating the Catober prompts cause it really did bring me joy with just doodling a bunch of cute cats in different ways.

From the moment I first saw Sita's art, I was in love. The colors, designs, the COLORS! Seriously their art is just so beautiful. Chaka is such a fun looking character and she was a joy to draw. I may have gone overboard with the coloring on this attack, but I have ZERO REGRETS!
