Dex Completion, Shiny Hunting, and Anything In-Between: 4.0 🍊

[young nova]

I saw :(

I'm sorry about that

I hate genned pokemon with a burning passion

[lime nacelle]

it sucks but ill just go back to my og starter that i named after my cat xD

[young nova]

XD

[lime nacelle]

just realised it not as bad as i thought, ill just swap ogrepon to fire type and use my sprigattito

Just have to become champion then ill have access to the crater

[young nova]

You got this!

La Primera isn't that hard imo
It was Poppy and Hassel that I struggled with the first playthrough lol

(I mostly use dragon, ghost, and dark types but Poppy's pokemon were so annoying to deal with)

[pine jackal]

What I’d say is, I don’t personally view them as anything overly bad, just as long as they’re kept offline and relatively quiet (I don’t wanna be to clear just in case, I’m hoping you know what I’m referring to tho )

I think they’re fine for goofing around with, but preferably nothing more than that

Why does Geeta remind me of Gru

[young nova]

Oh also! [Spoiled just in case] ||If you want another Koraidon/Miraidon (which ever game ur playing) after you beat the main story and get a master ball afterwards, if you go back to the zero lab and go to the side (I think it's the side) there should be another of the Box Legendary there you can catch!||

[pine jackal]

I got a crit catch on that 2nd Koraidon

[young nova]

My spare Miraidon just wiped most of the BB elite four and Kieran

[young nova]

Luckyy
I was trying to catch it without the MB but I got too frustrated and just used it cuz it wouldn't stay in the ball

[pine jackal]

I did that final Kieran battle with my Politoed on the field, fun times

Actually used a Master Ball for the first time in like 13 years fairly recently, on my shiny Cobalion

[young nova]

I'm glad I have it though cuz if my team is ever in trouble in a trainer battle I just whip out Miraidon and watch it go to town on my opponent lmao

Electro drift is broken

[young nova]

Oo

[pine jackal]

Meanwhile Koraidon

Crashes into u

[lime nacelle]

i used one on a shiny gmax charizard back in sword xD

[young nova]

I used my second MB on Fezandipiti cuz I can't be patient when it comes to adding that zesty bird on my team

[young nova]

Bonk

[pine jackal]

Mine was just a mix of panic and lack of healing items crossed with surprise at getting it so quickly

[young nova]

I don't think I've actually seen Koraidons special move

[pine jackal]

Collision Course, although not boosted by the ability I don’t think like Miraidon

[lean wigeon]

She doesn't have the big nose though

[pine jackal]

Gru chic vibes with the build

[young nova]

Oh man I tried to catch Virizion a bit ago and I had Chi-yu lower it's HP with ruination and it was on a sliver and wouldn't go down
Ended up accidentally killing it and I haven't gone back for a rematch yet lol

[young nova]

Don't let Koraidon drive ig /j

[pine jackal]

I think I’m gonna try and get a second Cobalion on my Shield replay because it does kinda bother me, even though I’m happy I didn’t lose it out of stubbornness and have the shiny

Swords Dance gets nasty though

[young nova]

Virizion would not stop spamming Swords Dance

It's funny though cuz only so far only the legendary birbs have let me be their bud

[pine jackal]

Weirdly, that one was kind to me and caught in 3 when it finally shined

Good for the anxiety then

[young nova]

WHAT

[pine jackal]

I suppose it was balanced, Virizion took 1568 encounters and 3 balls, Cobalion only 45 encounters yet idk how many balls before I broke and threw the Master

[young nova]

Oof I don't have the patience to shiny hunt them
Honestly I'm just happy if I get them

[pine jackal]

Terrakion next when I get back to Shield

[lime nacelle]

Verizion looks AWESOME shiny

[pine jackal]

My face turned the same colour fr when I found it

I laughed actually, because my mom was in on it too and saw it

[pine jackal]

Think imma be hanging in here tonight, might see if I can get back into playing because I’m all done with most of what I needed to do today

[lime nacelle]

Niice! Hopefully i can be on too

wouldnt mind doing some bbq farms if thats what you were gonna do xD

[pine jackal]

I’ll see how I’m feeling after dinner and my shower, I really do gotta get done with SV shiny hunts so gotta find the motivation/enjoyment in playing again

[lime nacelle]

i feel that, ive been doing a couple gyms/bosses then getting off for a bit till i feel motivated again xD

[pine jackal]

Yeah, I find it comes back quite quickly tho, just gotta spend some time with it again. When I move onto Legends again, I’ll likely be nonstop

[lime nacelle]

Now that i think about it i could go back and get stuff ready for when i buy the sword dlc...by completing the dex😅

[pine jackal]

If so, I can try to help with Shield stuff if needed. I’ve found I’ve definitely gone with the less popular choice so I had no trouble getting help

Sad Zamazenta noises

[lime nacelle]

That would be fantactic!

i did get REALLY lucky and i got a galarian ponyta from a surprise trade

[young nova]

Teacher said he understood my situation with the concert so he said it's alright if I'm a bit late 💪

[lime nacelle]

Concert?

[young nova]

Yeah I have my final orchestra concert tonight

[lime nacelle]

aah i miss my time in concert band back in hs lol

[young nova]

Old /j

[lime nacelle]

WhO pUt ThAt ThErE!? lol

[young nova]

I dunno it could've been anyone

[lime nacelle]

i only graduated 5...years....ago

damn im old

[pine jackal]

I’m 23

[lime nacelle]

22 here

will be 23 at the end of this month

[pine jackal]

Although is baby 23, only in March

[young nova]

Oh when's your birthday?

[lime nacelle]

Nice! happy belated bday!

28th of may

[young nova]

Mines the 17th

I'll be 17 on the 17th
The only time when my age is the same as my bday

Hopefully this year won't be as bad as last year 😭

[lime nacelle]

yeah i still got a couple years for that

ever heard of your golden bday?

[young nova]

What's that?

[livid rover]

Younglings, in 3 months Im 35...

[young nova]

FOSSIL 🫵/j

[livid rover]

Living fossil

[lime nacelle]

its your situation this time around! when you turn the age your bday day is

[young nova]

I didn't know that's what it's called! :0

The more you know

[lime nacelle]

Its what ive heard it called at least

[young nova]

If it's my golden bday I'm expecting cold hard gold /j

[lime nacelle]

LOL

[young nova]

Tbh tho I'll be happy just getting another Mimikyu plush for my bday
Love that little guy

[lime nacelle]

Now that i think about it did you get any destiny marked pokemon on your bday?

[young nova]

My Mimikyu collection is
-a little Lego Mimikyu from several years ago I made as a kid
-Mimikyu Paldean Fates card box (Mimikyu card as well)
-Mimikyu plushie that my friend crocheted for me
-Mimikyu plushie I bought at the mall a few years ago

Can never have too many of the lil goober

[lime nacelle]

Mimikyu is soo cute

[young nova]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-mimikyu-sleep-sleeping-sleepy-gif-3249691405662651578

[pine jackal]

Now I think, I can’t actually remember if I hunted or not that day

[lime nacelle]

its cute in a creepy kinda way LOL

[young nova]

I don't find it creepy at all but a little sad that it has to resort to hiding it's true self from others so it doesn't hurt or scare them away 😭

[lime nacelle]

me

wait what xDD

[young nova]

But I think we all saw what happens when you see it's actual self in the SM anime :(

Worth the risk

[lime nacelle]

yeah poor meowth didnt deserve that xD

[young nova]

If anyone finds Mimikyu creepy or scary, show them it's actual eyes (worked for my mom now she finds it very cute)

[livid rover]

Mimikyu is one of my fav pokemons cause of its story

[young nova]

Fr

But I mean I've seen what it actually looks like

It's not scary

If anything it's even cuter

[lime nacelle]

now thats cute

[young nova]

It's literally just a blob 😭😭

Lil guy

Wonder if I should do a run of Violet with only a Mimikyu team

That would make the Ghost gym so much harder tho

[lime nacelle]

Nuzlock or no lol thats the big question

[young nova]

I can't bring myself to do a nuzlock

I love my pokemon too much

Even the ones I don't use

Immortal Mimikyu army

Shoot I may also have to watch out when fighting Poppy since Mimikyu is Ghost Fairy..

[lime nacelle]

Nah you got this

[gaunt wharf]

I need help getting pokemon no 323 327 275 and 258 i go to school in 15 min

[young nova]

What are their names

[gaunt wharf]

i don't know

[young nova]

Alright lemme look them up

[gaunt wharf]

look at your pokedex

[young nova]

Bro I can't I'm at school

[gaunt wharf]

oh

and 81

[young nova]

323 is palossand I think you can get it's pre Evo on the beach near Levincia

Evolve sandyghast to get it

I think several people have already told you how to find Bounsweet already

Look in trees and stuff

[gaunt wharf]

ok

[young nova]

As well as shellos

If you look up on Google where the pokemon are located you should be able to get them in no time

[jovial cloud]

I’m missing 2 out of the blueberry dex does anyone have the past paradox forms of entei and raikou

[pine jackal]

Larrysigh is so real 😭

[young nova]

That's all I can do I can't yell at them cuz that's not sportsman like

[lime nacelle]

He has asked SO many times

[pine jackal]

Glad they don’t know how to ping

Secret knowledge shhhh

[young nova]

With the stress of all the asking I'm gonna look LIKE Larry in a week /j

[lime nacelle]

You and princeling would have been getting so many dings if they did

[young nova]

(already have the eye bags but that's unrelated I just don't get enough sleep during the school week)

I don't want that happening to Bee or Leaf

[pine jackal]

In that case, what’s a ping? Never heard of that in my whole life

It’s impossible

[young nova]

I only know ping as in ping pong

🏓

[pine jackal]

I know Ping from/as Mulan

[young nova]

Which one is that

I haven't watched Mulan in years 😭

[pine jackal]

That’s just the name she picks on the spot to disguise herself as a guy

[young nova]

Oh right lol

So real

[pine jackal]

Did not like that live action disaster tho, I’d rather it be left alone

[young nova]

I just stole my new name from a Deltarune OC lmao when I transitioned

[young nova]

The live action remakes are all bad

Did not need to happen

[pine jackal]

No Mushu was a travesty

https://tenor.com/view/mushu-mulan-dishonor-gif-5543056

[young nova]

I'm not even gonna ask about the live action Mulan

But judging by what you said I assume they botched mushu

[pine jackal]

They left him out entirely but put a witch in there for some reason

[young nova]

WHA

That's not fair

Mushu is an icon

[pine jackal]

Apparently it was to help it be more realistic

[lime nacelle]

So im a champion now....

i was worried for nothing xD

[pine jackal]

Idk why I’ve got the Paldea Dex open as a tab now 😭

[lime nacelle]

"its now your duty to set an example" hehehe

[pine jackal]

All kids can earn millions, train powerful and sometimes legendary creatures, and become national icons

[young nova]

Trespasses in the crater lol

||I laughed when I got yelled at by Rika for going into Area Zero in ID lolll||

[pine jackal]

I love Rika

[lime nacelle]

Still no shinys caught by me though.. might do that before the crater

[young nova]

Rika is awesome

[pine jackal]

Although probably Hassel for my favourite E4 member, his emotions are fantastic

[lime nacelle]

Also i just want to say that i bonked geeta's last pokemon with ogrepon

absolute cinema

[young nova]

Ik Rika is stated to be female in the game but her whole vibe is giving trans energy

[pine jackal]

Ah yes, Glimmora

[young nova]

Glimmora isn't hard lol

[lime nacelle]

i know but i got a good laugh out of it xD

[young nova]

XD

[pine jackal]

Gogoat tho, nightmares about that beast /j

[lime nacelle]

Hit it with one flamethrower and it dropped like a sack of potatos

[pine jackal]

Man, I love Gogoat. Deserves something special in Z-A. Mega

Then, I’ll be fully onboard

[young nova]

Goht

Oh wait that actually sounds cursed

[pine jackal]

Zelda boss iirc

I should know that 100% off the top of my head

[young nova]

I was thinking of Goh the pokemon trainer 😭

His head on a goat body is so cursed

[pine jackal]

Goht is indeed the boss I thought it was

It’s a… goat

[young nova]

What does it look like

[pine jackal]

“The Masked Mechanical Monster”

[young nova]

OH

[pine jackal]

That mask is cursed, fitting really from that game

[young nova]

That

I haven't finished mm cuz I wasted the first day confused walking around and my dad put the N64 away afterwards

[pine jackal]

I really would love to play it actually, almost got the 3D version years ago but decided to go for something else at the time

It’s on NSO Expansion but idk if I can justify it for really only 1-2 games of interest

[young nova]

I'm not paying more money to play it 😭

I have the game cards and N64 from my dad I just haven't found time to boot it up again

[lime nacelle]

Just bonked nemonas last pokemon too xDD

[pine jackal]

Yeah I think what I’ll do is try to find a good copy from a preowned place and play it that way, so I’ll have the N64 era pair on my 3DS

[lime nacelle]

the duck stood no chance against the bonk

[young nova]

First time leaving school early on my own without being signed up I'm a little nervous

[pine jackal]

Today I actually found the largely empty A3 size sketchbook we had to buy for an art project at school. One almost done drawing of an autumn leaf that I totally forgot about (that I should perhaps finish) and that’s really it of note

I’ll just make use of the quality paper that’s in there

[gaunt wharf]

i need help getting no 81 147 258 175 and 323

all in pokedex

[pine jackal]

https://tenor.com/view/bruh-abbott-elementary-gregory-greg-abbott-gif-11973503723217435922

[lime nacelle]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-tired-larry-gif-75470984332054241

[gaunt wharf]

what

all i want is help getting no 81 147 258 175 and 323
all in pokedex

[pine jackal]

Bounsweet can be found high up in trees in a few locations, I prefer just outside of Los Platos on the way up to the Academy. They can be seen hanging from the branches and can be knocked down with your ride Pokémon by dashing into the tree.

The same goes for Pineco in places like Tagtree Thicket, but I hear it can be a little harder to find than Bounsweet. Nothing terrible so it shouldn’t take too long. Alternatively, Tsareena and Forretress can also be bred in a pinch

[lime nacelle]

Leaf you have a LOT more patience than i do

[pine jackal]

147 is Florges, which can be evolved by using a Shiny Stone (I think?) on Floette, which are fairly common and can be found in various locations with flowers

175, Croagunk, relatively easy to find in the boggy area not far from
Grasswither Shrine, also in places like Casseroya I think

[gaunt wharf]

275

[pine jackal]

323, yeah, Palossand, easy to evolve from Sandygast

275 is Volcarona, takes a bit but eventually evolves from Larvesta, which can be found in Asado Desert

[lean wigeon]

Little note: it evolves at a very high level @gaunt wharf

[pine jackal]

https://tenor.com/view/bored-kristen-wiig-saturday-night-live-sigh-drinking-gif-19742642

[young nova]

https://tenor.com/view/kieran-pokemon-i-lobe-him-sm-omfg-gif-6659803371736792502

Just look it up oml

I'm getting so annoyed with this "asking"

[lime nacelle]

i wrote a whole ass paragraph but my good side got the better of me

[pine jackal]

https://tenor.com/view/tentofate-elmo-elmo-staring-gif-11901234066681497328

[young nova]

Real

[young nova]

I felt this

[lime nacelle]

i can just hear doom music in that gif

[pine jackal]

Whew… I’m proud

[young nova]

~~I feel like at some point I will snap and write a whole paragraph- ~~

[pine jackal]

I hope that those elusive Mons can be found somehow

Ngl, plz show yourselves

[lime nacelle]

im waay past that stage

[young nova]

I'm holding on to what little sanity I have left

[pine jackal]

I’m hoping that a solution is found overnight

Said slightly tensely

[gaunt wharf]

i can't find no 81 in pokedex

[young nova]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-kieran-ground-punch-hit-gif-18331070610583703639

[pine jackal]

I really can’t recommend the area just before the Academy enough, maybe a Grass Encounter will help a bit. Failing that, Tsareena can also be bred if it’s really elusive

[young nova]

There's a Tera Wild Tsareena in the area where Ting-Lu is found

[pine jackal]

Just 81 is a strange one missing, or is it me…

[young nova]

Idk

[pine jackal]

Eh, maybe me, I like trying to get base forms and evolving up for the Dex

[young nova]

I may have one if I do I'll have to check where I got it when I get home

[pine jackal]

I know it’s available in Tagtree too, but I stay away if I can

Honestly, that spot near Los Platos is what I remember most because of the hunt I did for it

[young nova]

Oh yeah

I think I found one there

[pine jackal]

Learning Pokémon by numbers, let’s gooooo

[lime nacelle]

i know names and faces, thats the best i can do

[young nova]

This

[pine jackal]

I don’t know many cries anymore because I often play on low or no sound

[young nova]

I can probably pinpoint most cries in Violet

[pine jackal]

Like I’m still surprised by most new ones to this day

Think imma get a glass of water and curl up and hide get to bed anyhow

God natt, 잘자요, and good night all, and good luck

Hopefully when I wake up, this is all done

[lime nacelle]

Good night!!

[young nova]

Night Leaf! Sleep well!

[young nova]

Bro I almost got into a dumb argument about the stupid loss meme

The person was completely misreading what I was saying

[lime nacelle]

Im finally done with the base game

now i can get to doing the rest of indy discus xD

[pine jackal]

Took me a whole month or so to actually beat Scarlet, although I spent so much time just exploring everything and picking up every item I found

[young nova]

Bro why won't discord just let me close and delete my post in UC I'm not taking anymore requests cuz no body follows through when I get their pokemon 😭

[young nova]

Indigo DVD

[lean wigeon]

It just puts it to the bottom for some reason. Locking it works

[pine jackal]

Noodles inbound let’s gooo

This week has been a total write off cuz of the fatigue, so may as well bring in some small wins

[young nova]

How do you lock it?

[pine jackal]

I did that to one of my threads once by accident

[lean wigeon]

Should just press and hold then lock is the option below close

[young nova]

I don't see a lock option (I'm on mobile)

[lean wigeon]

Follow your post then it should be there

I think that's how it works (also mobile)

[pine jackal]

Reminds me, some channels I need to delete from my list in this server

[young nova]

Don't see a lock
Seems to have stayed closed now so hopefully it isn't seen again

[pine jackal]

Hopefully it doesn’t get a bump if all else fails yeah

[young nova]

Anyhoo

Did you get good sleep last night Leaf?

[pine jackal]

I did ty, although this fatigue is being super stubborn this time round. It should ease soon with the new pack of medication started now though

I see it was actually miraculously quiet in here last night

[young nova]

I passed out after my concert when I got home

[pine jackal]

Ooo-

[lime nacelle]

NIIICE!!

[celest moss]

BBQs V

rt50rn

[young nova]

I totally didn't just rag on SWSH on Tumblr just now

[pine jackal]

https://tenor.com/view/angry-mob-mad-angry-get-hi-him-gif-15559264817013259719

I really like this image hehe

Honestly tho, that’s sorta the reason I’ve had a channel cleanup today. Some ppl you just cannot have a good discussion with and be remotely critical of any Pokémon game, even if it’s fair and minimal critique

[lime nacelle]

From someone that has only completed Sword and Scarlet i can say there are some drawbacks to both and QOL changes to both aswell

but i still like both of them

[pine jackal]

Honestly, I don’t think there are any that I have anything bad to say about now I think of it

[lean wigeon]

Guess what I just got 10 mins ago

[pine jackal]

Most of my main criticism is around the upcoming release, which is uh… another story

Nothing on the level of “if you like SwSh or SV, a meteor will come to your house” kinda criticism tho

[lime nacelle]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-annoyed-stare-side-eye-gif-16732086699915766519

[young nova]

Real

[young nova]

If someone says that to me after I say I like Violet alot then I welcome the meteor
I get a backyard meteor and they don't have so /j

[pine jackal]

A smol pebble one would be awesome

No shiny Tapu Fini on the second attempt, couldn’t catch this one either but no biggie. Maybe try again tomorrow

[celest moss]

Can anyone help me with dex completion please just need alolan vulpix and a touch trade for raging bolt and gouging fire! TY

[pine jackal]

I wouldn’t like to be able to say for certain and end up not coming online, but I might be able to help with the Vulpix later

[celest moss]

TY

[digital sluice]

_djbeast has given 1 Gen Rep to aleaf_inthewind

[pine jackal]

Late dinner tonight. Supper really

[pine jackal]

Time got away from me tonight

[wet goblet]

Anyone got the legendary paradox’s from scarlet? Cuz I need to complete the blueberry dex

[lime nacelle]

Just phased on a shiny touros while going for a braviary....fml

[pine jackal]

There’s such a greedy ahole on Go in my local area who makes a 1AM circuit of all 4 Gyms, hogging them with Blissey’s and Wobuffets. I put my mom’s Pokémon in there last night and he barely gave her 3 hours, so I’ve gotten rid of him from this one right away and pray others do the same today so he only gets 50 coins for 4 Gyms of weird effort

[pine jackal]

Behehehe, that’s 2/4 Gyms, nice

[gentle mango]

Someone still out there to help my evolution?

[young nova]

Time to take the SAT again 🫠

[pine jackal]

Ooh, good luck!

I’m not far from starting on the N5 (bottom) rung of Japanese over here in terms of study-related stuff. Oddly strenuous hobby for sure

[lime nacelle]

Ik im a bit late but good luck!

[young nova]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-tired-larry-gif-75470984332054241

Idk how I did :(

Hope I did well

[finite fable]

I'm sure you did good

[pine jackal]

Yeah, absolutely. Most important thing now is to take some rest now that it’s all done

[lean wigeon]

You did your best

[pine jackal]

Made it to a Mega Kanga Raid here and bopped ‘em on the head, no shiny though. That’s my first Mega Raid tho

[young nova]

Turning off my brain the rest of the weekend now

[pine jackal]

100%, I’d take some time to replace that stuff with more fun and enjoyable things

[lean wigeon]

Hope you get a shiny. I got jack

[pine jackal]

I only got chance to do 1 Raid before it ended here, but it was still fun. I’m gonna probably prioritise Altaria at the end of the month more because I’m trying to raise a Swablu, so all the bonuses will help there

[neon mirage]

Any group open? I would love to evolve my dolphin

[hushed crescent]

i am open kind sire

[pine jackal]

Took me a while to actually get around to finishing this research, but I did so tonight after I bought some more bag space so I could hold the rewards and have room left. How adorable is this background + also had a cute cutscene where it waddled up the path towards me

[rose thistle]

Ooo is this in go?

[pine jackal]

Yeah, it’s not the shiny research unfortunately but it’s nice to have access to Shaymin either way, it’s adorable. I have another to get in Legends eventually too

[rose thistle]

I haven’t played go in forever- but since I’ve fallen back into the pokemon grind- I need to redownload it. I didn’t get far in arceus and didn’t love it my first time playing but now that I’ve done so much in scarlet I think I’m going to enjoy it a lot more

[languid light]

Could someone help me evolve finizen?

[turbid sun]

Do any of you guys have a shiny litten or grookey

[pine jackal]

[toxic prism]

mornin

[pine jackal]

More Katakana today

I’m also gonna try and play some form of Pokémon tonight, I’ve been largely focused on Go tbh lately. I might hop over to Legends early, screw it

[lime nacelle]

Halloo

[lean wigeon]

Hey

[pine jackal]

Huh, strange quality. Hollup

https://tenor.com/view/iu-cute-pretty-hae-soo-moon-lovers-gif-22973215

That one is cuter and gentler on the eyes

[lime nacelle]

im so confused at whats going on rn xD

[young nova]

Hi

[lean wigeon]

👋

[pine jackal]

I posted a lurk gif but I feel like the original was a little aggressive with a slight flash, so I changed it just in case XD

[lime nacelle]

oooh ok lmao

[pine jackal]

I might play some Legends tonight, regardless of the missing SV shinies. Gotta find a way back into mainline somehow

[lime nacelle]

so im doing some surprise trades bc why not and just traded out a genned bayleaf for a genned chikorita from the same url

[pine jackal]

I had a Harry Potter reference in mind for that but it’s kinda obscure XD

[lime nacelle]

what was it? im kind of a potter fan

[pine jackal]

For some reason, it reminded of Half Blood Prince, where Snape says, “you dare use my own spells against me, Potter?”

I have too many references XD

[lime nacelle]

[pine jackal]

Now, time for me to take a walk with my dog and Swablu, then I’ll sit and watch the rest of a tennis game. It’s a weird occasion where I actually want the British player to win and beat a Norwegian in the process. Feels weird

[lime nacelle]

i was soo confused by the start of that message xD

[pine jackal]

Swablu is my Go Buddy, I’m trying to raise enough candy to evolve it eventually

[lime nacelle]

I figured that was the case

[pine jackal]

303/400 Candies, I’ll keep going for a little while past 400 too tbh because I like to have some left. Swablu is spawning now, which helps too, plus Mega Altaria Raids towards the end of the month which I’ll hopefully make bank on too

Spent a good chunk of that XP talking about sports, languages, and daily dramas

[young nova]

[pine jackal]

Currently watching these super serene videos of walks in Seoul in the winter while I draw, it’s stunning and honestly I’m staring more at that than my work

[eager vault]

Is anyone available at around 10 pm EST for a union circle? I would like to catch the scarlet exclusives (yeah I'm that kind of person) and if you need you can also get violet exclusives from me. Also, I'm unfortunately not able to use my phone at the time so we cannot communicate well (I say well cuz it would be funny to communicate by nicknaming pokemon).

[young nova]

Whew boy I do not feel well..

[pine jackal]

Sorry to hear that!

The best thing you can do is to just take it as easy as possible and break out any special self-care you like. Hope you start to feel better soon

[rose thistle]

I can help- message me and I’ll give you my friend code for the switch!

[stiff tangle]

Hello fellow shiny leafeon lover

Just found a random shiny trapinch lol

[jovial cloud]

Is anyone available that has scarlet dex completed all I’m missing is Cramorant, and the past paradox forms of Entei and Raikou

[pine jackal]

I should probably get back into helping more now that I’m not necessarily using the server for much else anymore. Starting with those last few shinies I need in Scarlet, I’ll try to be more active this week and help out if needed between hunting

[rose thistle]

I can help

[open bay]

Can anyone help me evolve finizen rq

[pine jackal]

[outer crater]

Anyone uppppp

[lean wigeon]

What do you need?

[outer crater]

@lean wigeon need to evolve finizen and looking for some scarlet exclusives to trade

[lean wigeon]

Ok I can't help you there as I mainly play violet. Try #1112832566261731328 for those trades as it's quiet here rn

[pine jackal]

I might be up for helping tonight

Metagross tera raids this weekend anyone going for shinies?

[lean wigeon]

Nah I'm busy

[toxic prism]

regardless, I believe the Mighty Mark 7 star raids are all shinylocked so I don't think any of us are gonna be going for such a thing

[lime nacelle]

Im big sad now

[toxic prism]

unless you mean to use it as a breeding parent for the IVs then no to that either

you can pass down the IVs to the children who can be shiny but without the mark

[lime nacelle]

i barely know anything about this game so im still learning whats shiny locked and whats not

i just did my first ever 5* raid lol

[toxic prism]

regular, non event raids can have shiny bosses but they are rare

[vast kiln]

Anyone want to do bbq farming I want to evo mon jhsyhq

[pine jackal]

Personally, I always swerve these Raids

I like to play a game, how disappointing is the newest compared to the last. Kinda like Pokémon games themselves 😭 /j

Hi, can someone help me with last pokemon in my SV dlc dex?

[rose thistle]

I was looking for love balls but I’ll take it

[lean wigeon]

Some good luck

[pine jackal]

Can’t believe I’ve only ever used a Master Ball once in the last 13 or so years

Would 100% use on something hilarious tho, that’s my humour

[proven linden]

I used it on a Lapras out of spite

[lime nacelle]

Im not even half-way to completing the base pokedex

[pine jackal]

Just thought I’d give a quick heads up in case I make a decision soon, but I’m not 100% sure how much longer I plan to stick around the server for the moment.

Tbh, I’m not totally comfortable or happy as a result of a couple things, which has kinda soured my experience, and that’s something additional that I could kinda do without rn.

Don’t wanna seem dramatic or anything lol but I just thought I’d put some thoughts out there so it doesn’t look too surprising if I do time out at some point

[young nova]

It's okay Leaf! (I'm having a similar experience in another server)

[pine jackal]

Ty for understanding, I hope it improves for you soon. I might just stick to less active areas like I am doing for now and see how it plays out

[lean wigeon]

Honestly same. I wish the game cycle would finish so I can leave this all behind me as a phase in my life

[pine jackal]

I would honestly go for whatever makes you the most comfortable and happy. I find it a shame as I love it in concept and most people are awesome, but some things I just can’t really abide by anymore

[rose thistle]

I get it leaf- hope you do well in whatever you decide

[young nova]

In the other server unrelated to pokemon that I'm in, I'm trying to turn things around but ever since it went public it's been going down hill and the mod team never listens to me whenever I bring up a problem, and the creator of the server doesn't do anything now unless I vent my frustration to my friends
I'm starting to feel like even as a mod I can't really do anything to help it so I'm planning on leaving that server after my bday

If you do decide to leave this server I wish all the luck and happiness to you Leaf

[toxic prism]

🫵
🫂

[young nova]

What did you upgrade it to? I want to get some more master balls but idk what lvl the item generator has to be

[lean wigeon]

Printer only prints them at max level

[pine jackal]

It will all work out in the end, they’ll be losing a great staff member in the process so the loss is absolutely more on them. I wouldn’t feel too harshly towards yourself about it if you do decide to leave, as it’s 100% about prioritising yourself and taking care

[young nova]

Gotcha

[young nova]

Yeah I don't plan on staying for much longer
Just until I can add my friends from that server onto a GC server I made

[pine jackal]

I think what I’ll do is just keep using this little spot I made here, just as intended as a chill spot to hang out and play. The more mainstream channels of the server can wait for now, and I can take time to make a decision while still enjoying the place as I have for so long

[pine jackal]

I hope you guys can put that other server into the mud

[lime nacelle]

If i join a violet hosted union circle could i catch the exclusives?

[proven smelt]

Should be able to catch them even if a Scarlet player hosts. Just need a Violet player to spawn them.

[lean wigeon]

Yes you'd be able to

[lime nacelle]

ooh ok im still looking for an iron valiant xD

[lean wigeon]

I'm sure @eager vault could help you

[lime nacelle]

oh true

Yeah just gotta make sure you’re close by each other in-game. A0 has also always been funky in Unions, works but… not well XD

[crisp lion]

Any scarlet players I can join to catch exclusives?

[pine jackal]

[pine jackal]

Me: sure would be nice if Duolingo gave some love to their existing courses

[young nova]

I feel anxious or something for some reason

Whatever random butterflies in your stomach means

[toxic prism]

uh, are you experiencing love anxiety or something else? because the "butterflies in your stomach" thing usually is used for infatuation anxiety

[pine jackal]

My anxiety gives me spells of uneasy feelings quite often, like sometimes I can’t identify what the cause is but I just get so on edge and jittery, prone to freak out any moment

I can always recommend calming white noise and ambience if possible for anxiety at any time though, it was an absolute game-changer for me

[young nova]

What's love anxiety

[toxic prism]

when you feel nervous because you are developing feelings for someone

[young nova]

Oh

No I don't have a crush on anyone

Hmm

[pine jackal]

I don’t blame you for that /j

I wonder if it’s maybe related to the SAT from the other day, that could still be weighing heavy

[young nova]

Maybe 🤔

My body does this sometimes and I never know the reason when it does

[pine jackal]

Yeah, no matter the cause or form, anxiety really is a bitch and can absolutely cause more problems than people sometimes think

We’re all different in how we handle it, but I’ll always do my best to help others going through it how I can. I really like doing things like reading about some interests, listening to white noise, and just taking it easy and riding it out until it eventually calms

[violet hornet]

hello!! im playing scarlet atm and i just need a few more base game mons to complete the dex, any violet players that can help, whether that be trading, or playing together, idm!

Sweet lil’ bonus while waiting for a Raid this morning

That colour is so pretty

[young nova]

I passed my history eoc

[lean wigeon]

Nice job

[young nova]

Tyy

[pine jackal]

Great to hear

[young nova]

They gave us 3 whole hours but at most it took my 45 min

There was only 53 questions I think?

[pine jackal]

Whereas me, an intellectual, did not complete her math final because she ran out of time

I hated it so much fr tho

[young nova]

Oh no :(

If it makes you feel any better I failed my math final last year lol

Math isn't my strongest suit

[pine jackal]

Yeah, I always struggled with it. Loved stuff like History, Spanish, Art and English, but math and physics and stuff like that, not so good. I did pass somehow tho, I’m convinced they felt bad for me

Also, hmm, been checking out some of the other servers I joined for the emotes, the one I’m checking out for shiny hunters is kinda strict for subjects compared to this one, noted, noted

[young nova]

I think for me, Math, Spanish, and History are my weakest subjects, but that partially due to me not having great teachers for those subjects, save for the few teachers that helped me and we're passionate about their job which made learning easier

God damn that's a lot of commas

[lean wigeon]

My weak point is English
What do you mean write about how this character portrays this stereotype

[toxic prism]

my weakest point was english and accounting
I can do math but don't tell me to do depreciation or log books and shit

English as in like writing and such, I can't do Fiction writing
Non-fiction on the other hand, I feel like I'm pretty decent in

[pine jackal]

Weirdly, I actually hated Spanish so much until I got embarrassed by being called on in class after not paying attention. From then, I decided to look into it and see how tricky it was, and found it wasn’t so bad and ended up being one of the 9 students in my class to keep studying it. Would have preferred German ofc but Spanish was a fun smol class

[toxic prism]

I mean you had fun, feels like a win

[pine jackal]

Is why I still study em to this day, that one “oh crap” moment where I answered “Monday” to a question about daily habits

[toxic prism]

[lean wigeon]

Yall had to do accounting?

[toxic prism]

In all honesty I'm fine with english as a language(the only language I'm truly proficient at, no shit) but if I had the opportunity to learn other languages I'll take it in a heartbeat
Which is why I'm consistently learning Korean

[toxic prism]

uhh I followed the British Syllabus, so I had to pick whether I would do the Science subjects or the Business subjects, and naturally I chose business because it's easier

Cambridge's syllabus

[pine jackal]

English is pretty much hammered into us here, other options also vary from school to school. Mine was just like the “big European 3”

[lean wigeon]

This is secondary school
And English syllabus for GCSEs has you pick, well for me, it was between a language or a humanity

[toxic prism]

I for some reason can have a really sporadic social battery, some of you's probably have this too
I just joined a vc with some friends that I haven't talked to with my voice in like a month and 2 minutes in, i left the call and went "Alright, that's enough of that for like a week or so"

[pine jackal]

German I’ve wanted to do since the age of like 13, so I’m working on that now. I’m very interested in Japanese as another too, so I scratch the dabbling itch for now by learning Hiragana and now Katakana

[toxic prism]

Any reason why you started learning japanese or was it like on a whim

[pine jackal]

That’s so real too, I’m recharging a little now tbf

[toxic prism]

I kinda feel like I'm letting that group down tho, because I would sit in vc with them for hours back then, now idk how to like be able to do such a thing for even 10 minutes

[pine jackal]

I think I just prefer it over say like Mandarin or Korean because it’s fairly relevant to a lot of things I love, so I can integrate learning into those things when I start to properly study it. Although all 3 are very beautiful in their own regards, I love Korean script and lots of things about Korea too

[toxic prism]

that's nice

[pine jackal]

I used to feel that way about being here tbh, like I was letting people down if I couldn’t help much for any time

[toxic prism]

I'm already like kinda proficient of mandarin, it was my mother tongue so I kinda had to be at least decent at mandarin

But I've tried learning japanese, couldn't do it
So i went to learn korean because I had an interest in the country and such, plus my adoration of Kpop

Now I've been able to hold small conversations with people, but I'm still trying to get the reading thing down

One way I might make myself learn the reading part properly is I might just make my Ipad into the Korean letters so that I'm forced to read and understand korean

[pine jackal]

I can read Hangul if I have a proper look at something written in Korean, it was the vowels that I struggled with a ton for some reason but I got there eventually. With Japanese, I got Hiragana down and am working on Katakana, but that’s where it stops being kind I think

I really like flaschards for learning them tbh

There’s someone nearby who consistently plops a Mon into the Gym right after me each time I take it over. I don’t have a problem with it ofc since we’re the same team, but, yk, it can’t hurt to maybe, idk, take over yourself once in a while? Not that hard mostly

Today, it’s especially annoying because I was ready to have my mom knock me out for my 50 and so she could have a turn as usual, and they gone done and plonked a Machop in there at the worst possible time

[young nova]

The prompts in English exams:

I'm in AICE English this year and I was really hoping for ONE fun prompt to write about
Just one
Did not get any exciting or good prompts 😭

[toxic prism]

I've always hated fiction writing, which is ironic because I think of myself as a whimsical person

I used to like writing stories back when I read books
Now I just do comics and stuff lol

mornin

[wanton flint]

good evening all can someone help with the BBQs?

[pine jackal]

Someone knocked my mom outta the Gym this morning after she only amassed 4 coins, so I booted them right back out after 2 minutes and put her back in. Play fair around me and don’t mess

Guess who? Valor. I feel no shame in ever knocking them out early

[lean wigeon]

Not at this time, sorry

[young nova]

I was at a church for an orchestra thing
I was at war with one other person who kept knocking out my pokemon 😭😭

[toxic prism]

Okay were you in the orchestra? Because I'm picturing how funny it is for you to be like part of the choir and looking down while fighting in the gym

[pine jackal]

Honestly, I’m the most chill player ever, as long as we all get our coins. It’s more for my mom that it annoys me when it happens tbh, so they aren’t messing with her

She left her phone at home while helping my dad with something at his work, so I’m on guard for her

But like, yeah, I’m the sort that lets everyone get their 8h 20m, and only knock them out early if they don’t show the same courtesy. 40 minutes is taking the biscuit, so I’ve been watching while making notes from a Japanese textbook

[young nova]

Nah I was watching an orchestra lol

I was in the audience fighting that one person who kept knocking me out

[pine jackal]

Last week, someone tried knocking me out before my coin limit time had been reached. I didn’t know before this that if you were in the game and a Gym battle was going on, you could see like, cartoon fight effects coming out, like clouds and lightning bolts. Everytime the person got my Mon’s health down, I just Golden Razzed each time because I have a huge stash. They gave up for like an hour, then tried again, and I was of course there. They underestimated my stubbornness and patience massively

I live here, I can do this all day

[lean wigeon]

Signature look of superiority

[pine jackal]

Eat an Ice Beam from Kyurem, mofo

[young nova]

LMAOO

[pine jackal]

My fellow Mystic players are following suit and not taking Valor’s early takeover crap, someone put a massive 3000+ CP Rhyperior in the local park Gym too, I love to see it ruining them and that guy who takes over them all at 2AM, only 50 coins for that

Funnily enough, if I had made my account more recently, I’d have very likely chosen to be on Valor since red is the colour of my favourite sports team

[lime nacelle]

the url's are out to play today lmao just got 3 genned pokemon btb

Anyone available to help me evolve a Palafin? JDQ6TG

[pine jackal]

I’ve been taking lil’ notes all day from the main Japanese textbook used worldwide for learning/teaching it. Been so much fun and i feel like I’ve learned a lot from only covering the hiragana section

[young nova]

I screwed up the painting I was doing 😭

Probably not my best painting of 2025
Hoping my artistic skills are at their peak this summer again like last year

[pine jackal]

Aww, it’s pretty rough when that happens to something you’ve been working on, I feel that

I’m sure you’ll come up with some more great stuff this year though, the beauty of art is that you’re always improving

I’m personally super slow with my drawings and also struggle to focus on just one, so i end up with tons of unfinished stuff

To quote Toy Story 2 tho, “you can’t rush art”

https://tenor.com/view/toy-story2-cleaner-you-cant-rush-art-rush-art-impatient-client-gif-20473209

[young nova]

I painted a beach scene with a palm tree and stuff in an art class my fam wanted to take me to

Tbh tho I'll probably just recreate the painting with pokemon

So like Lapras in the sea, Wingull in the sky, and Krabby on the sand

[pine jackal]

Sounds great! There are so many really beautiful pieces I’ve seen online involving Pokémon, especially card repaints. My favourite was Alolapix in a snowy forest

I remember I actually repainted a matching Pikachu and Buneary pair of cards where they were on a beach, I’ll have to find those photos again

[pine jackal]

Me just indulging in a rare instance of reading Pokémon fans argue in comments sections, fascinating

Much like this server at times

[hollow shard]

does anybody want to help me shiny hunt

[pine jackal]

I’m not sure about today, but I should be generally free in the week for hunting

[sleek tusk]

Hellooo

I need help with blueberry Dex

[toxic prism]

are you looking for specific mons or the dex in general?

[pine jackal]

Aye, I knew this would happen on a Comms Day where I already had multiple of this shiny on my Switch

Still a cute lil’ jelly baby

Also, Valor have retaken all 4 local Gyms, so I’ve half beaten to death some Liverpool supporter’s Alolan Muk so it’s easier to take it for myself later after his 8 hours. I’m gonna keep doing that regardless of healing because it’s fun and will hopefully annoy them

[toxic prism]

yay pink baby

[lean wigeon]

I got 5 today

[pine jackal]

So, uh, I just plonked my Mon into the Gym, notably, my Leafeon, and a guy who kinda hurt me a while back is now in there too, on my team

Fuk u tho, I’m 10 levels higher and my baby Leafy will protect the Gym better

[pine jackal]

Tho it is a Flareon, all rules go out the window (I do love Flareon too )

I had a mini panic attack when I saw the name tho ngl

[toxic prism]

but we must have bias towards leafeon

I should draw a leafeon

[pine jackal]

Had to be my Leafeon because he knows full well it’s my favourite and the best

Wait, I should too actually. Needs the right reference for me tho, there’s a full-art Leafy card I really love so maybe I can try drawing that sometime

[toxic prism]

My references are usually the cards

ok the one thing i hated when i drew leafeon the last time were the ears, they were abysmmal for me to draw

[pine jackal]

I’d think some slight variances from the references would give it more character

Can’t really think of any parts that annoyed me to draw tbh, I did an Eevee and Flareon sketch and enjoyed both tbh. I’ll have to redo them and finish the rest of the Eeveelutions

[toxic prism]

my favorite to draw are eevee and espeon, because they're easy as hell

[pine jackal]

I’m getting a very neat idea for all of ‘em actually, sorta from my current Demon Slayer project

Umbreon, surrounded by moon phases, Vaporeon with bubbles/whirlpools, etc

[toxic prism]

Eeveelutions but with the breathing styles

[pine jackal]

Demon Slayer characters with Eeveelutions and breathing style motif surrounds

[lime nacelle]

100% would watch an eevee adaptation of DS

[gleaming phoenix]

Hey guys, looking for abt 15 violet exclusives on the Kitakami pokdex to finish my dex, if anyone can help give us a DM, cheers

I’ve always been Nintendo for so long, but I’m definitely looking at branching out in the future

[lime nacelle]

xbox for me, but i did play on the nes and snes when i was a kid

[young nova]

I mainly played Earthbound on my dad's snes

Oh btw my twitch user is the same as my discord user

I barely use it other than to watch stuff lol

I'm in 😎

I remember I watched Twitch once to follow a YouTuber stream years ago, but that was it

For now, though, it’s bedtime for me, no doubt I’ll have dreams about the Japanese and Korean textbooks I’ve been skimming over all weekend, which makes me sound really boring

Also, I’m a smidge annoyed that someone broke the Eeveelution pattern in the Gym with a frickin Bonsly. My Best Buddy Leafy (Makar) has done a good job defending it with my rather unfortunate teammate, if you saw the earlier message

Hello

[young nova]

https://tenor.com/view/pat-garrys-mod-garrys-mod-physics-fast-intense-gif-26322619

[sleek tusk]

Anyone have the 9 pokemon I need?

Alolan golem, overquill, galarian slobro, galarian sloking, shieldon, bastiodon,alolan sandshrew, alolan sandslash and alolan ninetales

[pine jackal]

Let’s all choose Tepig in ZA and name it Carpet

[pine jackal]

Shieldon, Alolashrew, and Alolapix are version exclusives, the first two are from Violet and the snow fox is from Scarlet. I can help with whichever are the opposite to your version a bit later on if you like

[toxic prism]

I'll choose tepiug in a second save file but definitely will name it carpet

[pine jackal]

Also, I just helped my mom clear out the Gym so she can have her turn, and I told her who one of the players was. She got behind me beating him up in the game, even though it scared me for some reason

Think imma choose Chiko but I’ll wait and see ofc

[toxic prism]

My first playthrough will absolutely with chika

[sleek tusk]

Ok I have scarlet but don't have an ice stone to evolve ninetales some are trade evos some are version exclusive and overquill I'm lazy

[lean wigeon]

You can grab an ice stone from one of the shops. I don't remember which one it is though

For galarian slowbro and Slowking. Go to the terrarium and the coastal biome. North of the plaza is someone who can create the evolution items. The galarica twigs spawn in the same area the npc is

[young nova]

I usually choose grass starters so I'm probably gonna do Chikorita

Wish Snivy was the grass starter instead of Chikorita tho 😔

[pine jackal]

It’s def my choice for now, but I think I’ll keep it open and see if they make any changes to like forms and stuff. I do genuinely love all 3 tho

Not sure about a preorder or day 1 buy though

[sleek tusk]

Thx

I just can’t, makes me wanna scream: “brush ya teeth”

I think it’s more common than we realise tho, I’ve had so many people tell me to ignore it or get over it but… how

Also…

Never thought I’d be so hyped to see a regular male Litleo

[young nova]

It's hard to ignore when it's so obnoxious tho 😭

[pine jackal]

Definitely, they have no idea the distress it causes. I often end up either putting earphones in, turning up the TV, eating in a separate room, or just straight up getting up to do something else while they eat

For the life of me, I can’t shake the idea that this hand that I’ve drawn doesn’t look correct, even though it is pretty much as the reference looks. Maybe it’ll look different in colour or inked over

[pine jackal]

Might start checking out the Go chat again a bit more tbh, since that’s pretty much the only game I’m playing atm on account of being busy with art and studying

Plenty of Gym dramas and my rough outline of a plan to join Valor as a result. I know, I think I might actually be best suited to their meme aggressive approach despite clowning on them

How exactly does the destiny knot work, because I can't pass down 5ivs exactly, it's always less

(Imma be honest I don't really know anything about IVs and EVs I just want to spend time with my lil guys)

[pine jackal]

Shiny hunting is already tough so that just adds more nightmares on top imo, but I have big respect to people that do hunt them

Same tbh, I just use what I like and only build stuff for raids following plainish guides

[young nova]

I just use buffs on my favorite pokemon lolll

Like Mimikyu, Miraidon, Chi-yu etc

[pine jackal]

My Leafeon (Korok, the one in my pfp) is fairly busted with the best suited EV spread, got nature minted, etc, I made sure it was badass

That guy looks like one of those people who find out they’ve got a small amount of Scandinavian heritage, and then goes out of their way to exaggerate it by claiming they’re a Viking or smth. Making actual Scandinavian people cringe a bit

#oddlyspecific

Also, if we talking shiny Magikarp/Gyarados, I found mine just splashing around in a smol pool around 3 days after the game came out

You should hunt that Level 100 one in Kitakami, the stuff of legends

[young nova]

I actually found it from a YT video about Modern Vikings lmao

He does think he's a viking

[pine jackal]

Meanwhile me, in present-day Norway:

https://tenor.com/view/snow-shiba-floki-inu-snowing-gif-23869883

I fell asleep on the couch after pizza, now I have to finish my German learning for the day

[young nova]

Awww

[pine jackal]

Somehow found myself using the word “hors d’oeuvre” in my German notes and everything about that word feels wrong, I’m glad I’m not inclined to learn French

[young nova]

Ordurves

It should be spelled that way

Not how it's actually spelled

I barely remember how to spell hors d'oeuvres half the time

[pine jackal]

“Die Vorspeise” or “Vorspeisen” was definitely easier for me to spell out than those ones in the notes

I kinda chose an easier path with German here though, Japanese will eventually kick my butt when I study that properly

[young nova]

How does one pronounce that??

Dee vorpee?

Vorpehs?

[pine jackal]

The one I heard on Memrise was like “Foor-speesen”, but it’s quite likely to have been the most generic recording there is being on a learning platform

My language, the word for starter dish just sounds like “Furret” but with an O

[pine jackal]

Maybe if I repeat myself, I’ll get what I want

[toxic prism]

...actually that's kinda mean I shouldn't

[pine jackal]

I mean, it wasn’t wrong, nicer than me

[toxic prism]

yeah but I did do it more mockingly so I should've not done that

[pine jackal]

Shiny Hunters is full of that and it flies

[toxic prism]

true but most of the time it's much more tame that what I just did
Like they usually don't type out full monologues(if you can even count what i wrote one)

[toxic prism]

most of the time this is the extent of the mocking lmao

[pine jackal]

True, they can be just really condescending imo, not even from my own experience, just what I’ve seen

[toxic prism]

true

[pine jackal]

I couldn’t do it tho so I get where it came from, although it can really test patience

Be like rude I mean

Maybe PanFro or someone like that has a good video guide for Klawf, I use them

[toxic prism]

i feel like the rudeness and the condescending stuff just comes from like the over abundance of people back then just asking for people in the chat to help them shiny hunt, so they just started bullying the people that kept asking even after being told no

which i understand, such repetition of saying no and not being understood can really get under someone's nerves

Like i had someone that kept asking me to help them hunt for goomy(I'm not even a full fledged shiny hunter lmfao)

[pine jackal]

Yeah, plus when you try to point them towards helpful resources and that gets overlooked too, which is fair

[toxic prism]

exactly

and then after that ordeal they try to get friendly with me like no bro, I already do not like you, I know that this can be for you to ask it again when we become "friends" but my answer will always be no

Like i have no problem making friends with people but when i know their motive is to just get something out of me that takes my own efforts and time without them doing anything I'm out the door right away

[pine jackal]

I’m happy to help provided I have time, I can be as patient as required but if I come across someone that gives me a wrong/off vibe, I refuse it right away. I’ve done it here several times due to lack of politeness or consideration for my time

One time, we had a guy who wanted Roaring Moon and spam pinged Scarlet players to the point we lied about our versions 😭

[toxic prism]

exactly, purely out of annoyance I have maybe lashed out at like 2 people because they couldn't take no as an answer

[pine jackal]

When someone got it, all they got as thanks was a “you can leave now” 😭

I’m watching an ASMR history channel on YT right now while I take notes, and he’s glossing some clear runestones with a brush. All I can look at is that one long ass right thumbnail compared to the rest and it’s bugging me, the videos are great tho

[pine jackal]

People keep adding really strong Mons to the Gym tonight and feeding my Absol too, I just wanna get knocked out later on but that might be tricky now

There’s me and Absol, a big ass Stonjourner, and now an f-off shiny Electivire. Any more, please no 😭

[lean wigeon]

What I don't get is that the high cp mons will get into the red after like 3 hours
But have a 10cp mon in there and its a week before it's gotten halfway

Surely it should be the other way around

[pine jackal]

I noticed that, there was a 56CP Piplup near me, never given any treats and it outlasted a Chansey and Scizor

I just like using stuff I find cool, and I’m quite proactive giving berries to my Pokémon until I’ve had my 8h 20. Weekends a bit moreso since it’s harder to keep this one

[young nova]

Oh nonono! I never said you did haha

I was saying that about me

Sorry if that confused ya leaf 😭

[gaunt wharf]

can anyone help me shiny hunt klawf

[hushed owl]

Can someone help me catch version exclusive pokemon? I have Violet

[pine jackal]

Ppl do be mean about him tho, mainly his “wheels” and I’m like, “if only you’d spent time with Koraidon”

He tries his best and has fun

[young nova]

Koraidon running is cool
I like my motorcycle dino but I do wish I could see Miraidon use its limbs to move instead of it's wheels sometimes

[pine jackal]

Maybe it’s just me, but I find Koraidon faster too, could maybe be just an illusion from the movement style though. When I compare them both after hours of using each, there definitely feels like a difference

Although your player occasionally looks like they could get whiplash if you move too fast because they get thrown around in the seat a lot

[young nova]

Lol

[pine jackal]

Damn the auditory torture is continuing tonight, my dad literally cannot eat chips like most people and likes to shovel them in with huge handfuls, making that noise even worse. The massive amount per mouthful makes the tooth picking after worse too. Just man, man, man

[young nova]

Then he takes like 2 bags at once too
