Semi-hot Take: I Think That A Lot Of People Who Thought Scarlet And Violet Were Boring Just. Didn’t

Sometimes I worry about a new Pokemon game coming out and having my interests shift away from Scarlet and Violet but then I remember I literally took up and finished a minor in English at my college because the storylines inspired me so much. (And also so I could write better fanfics, but that’s not the point)

An onion in these trying times

Honestly, I didn’t like Buddy Dawn too much before this past episode, but damn…

He replaced the Rat Grinder’s last cleric who died, only to suffer a similar fate at the hands of people he thought were his friends. He had such a heart of gold, even if somewhat misguided in his beliefs.

He reminds me of those types of spiritual people who honest-to-goodness don’t have a single mean bone in their bodies and radiate nothing but warmth and kindness, but are doomed by the people they are surrounded by that do nothing but take advantage of the naïveté.

I really do hope the bad kids get to revive him, along with Lucy Frostblade.

(Also I REALLY hope it gets explained what Oisin’s role in this is, because it’s not looking too good for him right now)

I have become extremely obsessed with the DLC, Maybe next time I can draw Kieran once I figure out HOW THE HELL HIS HAIR WORKS

Came out of my tumblr hibernation to draw this

Starting scarlet and violet over as the default player character because I’m at that level of brain rot where I feel like they’re their own person and I CANNOT mess that up for them. No customization for me

You ever have a really dry period where you’re not really into anything super hard but suddenly a character appears and now you’re just constantly rotating them around in your head like a washing machine

My favorite thing ever when writing Pokemon fics is taking common idioms/metaphors and replacing whatever animal in them with the closest approximate Pokemon.

Like “hold your Mudsdales” or “Not my circus, not my Mankey.”

For some reason otherwise it makes me think of the character saying the normal one and going “wait what the fuck is a horse?”

I felt so hesitant putting my fhsona up on artfight because for some reason I thought that it was gonna be too niche. I’ve now had two separate people include them in multi-character attacks and I feel like I could cry of happiness

GUYS LOOK WHAT FUCKING ARRIVED TODAY IM GONNA EXPLODE
