    tfw a graduate scheme employer, who tells u 2 days ago to apply by 20th sept, is like "what are ur [career] goals?" in their form

    and u stare blankly because ur tired and want to play pokemon and these were meant to be ur days off after months of dissertation and career prep

    Hello I just want to say that u are all creative beans and that if I had the time and energy I would comment on everyone's run in the forums 💜💜 also I'm sorry for the past month where I didn't comment that much where I usually would, bad personal circumstances are legit the worst

    you ever recall an angsty song that talks about being paralysed by doubt and failing moral compasses etc, and instead of being like "yes this is perfect for my edgy story plans" you are like "yes this is perfect for the hidden Angst in my dissertation"

    ...okay that may be just me ;skgfhdfkjg i'm not actually edgy i promise rip

    I know you're not edgy but this post ain't doing you any favors in that department.

    me thinking of story ideas: "okay so sinnoh shall now be this massive tower with its own economic system and weird dimensional stuff, hmm am i missing anything"
    the actual pokemon who fight in pokemon battles instead of going on about economics all day because it wouldn't be a nuzlocke otherwise: "yeah excuse me what about us"

    At least they aren't the final boss of a certain fangame I've played; that has 5000 hp, is immune to all status moves and effects oh btw just for good measure has 3 times the Special attack of Mega Mewtwo Y. :)

    Oh btw, when a youtuber who made a Let's Play of the game complained "This is way too hard" some modders for the game said "Get good" (I know this because I watched the video where that happened)

    The worst of all, that boss isn't even the hardest thing in the game.

    god life really does decide to pull the rug under me whenever i feel happy and smiley and when there's been a positive development

    then suddenly it's "hey this thing was going well? lol you thought" and it feels like i'm hurting, and here like i may've been messed around

    aaaaaaa u ever just be flustered and so happ and listen to love songs and everything is cute and aaaaaaaaaaa

    dfkvhdfkjh i may sound drunk but i'm honestly not, i'm sober

    god of all the times to draw this edgy profile pic for myself and then i'm posting vague stuff about being so blushy and happy like. this is not me being quite as angsty as i thought i'd be 😂 😊

    me: *is trying to be epic and productive and work hard at my dissertation and my coding*

    me: *says i am not babey because of this new profile pic i drew*
    my sister, seeing the profile pic i drew and messaging me: "i see u are bby trying to be emo 😂😊"

    that moment when u realise u have to cut barry entirely from sinnoh storylocke shenanigans as he'd serve no real purpose in the plans and he's too similar to other characters, but he's a smol bean and u care he D:

    @Thirteenth i've literally just beaten fantina xD without any casualties which. is good because i had a really weird strategy to beat her and to my shock it actually worked

    but yeah the pokemon that i was having trouble with was aaron - drayano puts him in before hearthome with level 31 hellmons and i lost my rotom-heat to a crit

    OH YES I REMEMBER HIM....................... I'm so sorry ;;; the only reason I got through that hack relatively unscathed was cause I did nothing without looking at the documentation lmao he would've killed me if I'd gone in blind... also helped that I was playing with friends who picked up on things that I missed

    Most fangames/ROM hacks like to just Sucker Punch the player with "Gotcha!" battles it seems. I wonder why is that ? :psyduck:

    It's incredibly cathartic to annoy the Johto Elite 4 with an Umbreon

    Specifically a Taunt/Flash/Confuse Ray Umbreon with a Brightpowder >;)

    also finally none of my team died to the League in a nuzlocke yeeeeeeeet
    sky_
    Welp, just lost my starter and my badass Camerupt to crits. They got saved by the BS Clause only to die like 10 minutes after haha

    Honestly, this pokemon rejuvenation fangame isn't worth blind nuzlocking anymore. The story and characters aren't great, the gameplay can be awful (the Yveltal's only 1 example) and without my starter, Crest, it just won't feel the same...

    The Empoleon-specific item DOUBLES all stat changes when it's held by an Empoleon. So for example, Swords Dance becomes a +4 attack boost rather than a +2 boost.

    It also doubles all reductions as well. BTW it's a reward for reaching a currently end-of-story area.
