I like it, the anime is pretty good, though sometimes the 3D animation makes the characters less expressive/exaggerated then the manga. It’s still very good, and surprisingly very dramatic, at times without feeling too much like a soap opera. Has some good funny moments too, and explores mystery, and how different animal people could relate.

Happy birthday to Bandit Heeler and his VA, the frontman of Custard, Dave McCormack!

If only Zaslav didn’t remove it from everywhere.

I was too young to play N64 games. I did however play Colosseum and XD as a kid. And yes I do love that 3d charm. Early 3d Pokemon games had that charm

There is something charming about the OG Pokemon Stadium games early 3D style, especially those low resolution graphics. I had the first one, having my Pokémon in 3D was pretty sweet back in the day.

I know this is a game, not the anime, but both Pokemon Stadium games are so comfy for me. Whether my illness is physical or mental, watching people play through Pokemon Stadium 1 or 2 always helps me get through things.

There are lots of playthroughs on YouTube, but my purrsonal favourite is Mah-Dry-Bread’s :3

knights of sidonia, jin-roh: wolf brigade, metal skin panic: MADOX-01, and psycho-pass, you’re welcome

I need to check tbis show out one day.

I like some of the character designs but I’ve never felt the franchise to be compelling enough to dedicate large stretches of time to.

Yet I often look back on my past and feel as though not playing the games more as a kid was some sort of mistake on my part. I’ve made attempts to “make up for” all that time I feel like I lost, but I never get very far because I’ve realized that I can experience the franchise vicariously through other means without doing a bunch of grinding.

I’ve noticed mostly apathy and disinterest towards anything prior to G4. G3 is often dismissed as excessively girly and vapid, though I’ve never seen anyone trying to mount a serious defense of it either.

Newborn Cuties was universally ridiculed (no one really talks about it anymore), but that was ultimately a very small part of G3 and I doubt anyone over the age of 5 could find it enjoyable except in a so-bad-it’s-good sort of way.

Surely I can’t be the only one who developed an appreciation for pre-G4 stuff because of G4?

I agree, the movie was decent. It didn’t ‘blow’ in terms of sucking, but it didn’t ‘blow’ my mind either.

Personally, I don’t find the premise that engaging or the characters all that likeable aside from a specific few.
I also greatly dislike the Filly Funtasia-esque 3D animation. So despite my apathy for Pony Life, I actually like the Pony Life-esque Tell Your Tale far better than the flagship show (Make Your Mark).

Prophetic.

Thew news is going around that even Hasbro considers Make Your Mark to be a disappointment (I’m not sure how the toy sales are doing though. But I occasionally find G4 merchandise at stores, so maybe not that well?)

Lugia x Ho oh for life.

@Elly Catfox
Aha thanks! I love so many Pokémon >^-^<

@StrangeKittenOfTheFabulousKilljoys
<3 <3 <3 omg that’s so cool! I like how your dream team has a fav normal from gen 1 but a fav grass is all the way from gen 9. :O

For Christmas of 1998, after having watched the show for a few months, I finally got Pokémon Blue. With help from a bootleg player’s guide, it became the first video game I ever beat! I have remained a fan and played every generation since. I was writing up a loooong post about all my favourite Pokémon, but I realized it would be easier on us all if I just used an image template and made an image. So, here it is:

I wonder what would Ashs Pikachu would have if he could talk.

You know what would be awesome? A Pokemon Mystery Dingeon anime in the style of a Don Bluth cartoon specifically Secret of Nimh.

@Cosmas-the-Explorer
Look lovely! I think I should also sketch a drawing

If you evolve from a Wartotle to a Blastoise I bet your life is decreased drastically.

My headcanon is also only a select few of Wartortles get to be the elite Blastoises and fewer still megas.

@MoonOtter
Cute!

I, for one, welcome our new Ogerpon waifus overlords!

I would love some rotesserie chatot.

Depends on my mood. I’ll consensually fuck any sapient being if I’m in the right mood and it’s not a jerk. @Anonymous #B9E0

I’m partial to Nidoqueen. They can be both cute or mature looking, and they got curves for days. Plus they’re traditionally “monstrous” looking while being humanoid.

Braixen and Mienshao are tied for a close second, though.

@Anonymous #B9E0
Without getting too mature…

I actually find Deoxys kind of sultry with that long slender body.

Tamarain has made Infernape look like true waifu material too.
