How did Elesa get a Blitzle as a starter if she's from Sinnoh? (hang on this is ironic she could've learned about warden ingo in school back there)

Blitzle Elesa backstory under cut!

Blitzle was gifted to Elesa so she has an “easier time” integrating into Nimbasa by her well meaning dad. This is not the greatest move, since the two feel they are more obligated to stick together then, you know, actually choose each other. Blitzle’s meant to be a utility mon— he helps charge elesa’s hearing aid batteries and basically serves as an emotional support when things get rough. He’s… not the biggest fan. (I like to imagine Blitzle was originally part of a battle track, but his IVs aren’t the greatest so they shuffled him out. He’s a bit bitter about that.)

Inciting incident where they actually start taking the proper steps to becoming partners is when Elesa takes a tumble down a hill and Blitzle twists his foreleg going after her. (Local child eats shit! More at 11.)

They’re just kids, and they’re still learning.

(When Elesa decides to challenge the gyms, Blitzle’s so excited he accidentally trips their house’s circuits.)

((As for Elesa hearing about Warden Ingo, well… that’ll be a future issue.))

To counter what they view as a rising tide of prejudice, the HAF and other Hindu American groups have turned to American Jewish organizations, which they have long seen as “the gold standard in terms of political activism,” as Maryland State Delegate Kumar Barve said in 2003. Since the early 2000s, Indian Americans have modeled their congressional activism on that of the American Jewish Committee (AJC) and AIPAC; Indian lobbyists have partnered with these groups to achieve shared defense goals, including arms deals between India and Israel and a landmark nuclear agreement between India and the US. Along the way, these Jewish groups have trained a generation of Hindu lobbyists and advocates, offering strategies at joint summits and providing a steady stream of informal advice. “We shared with them the Jewish approach to political activism,” Ann Schaffer, an AJC leader, told the Forward in 2002. “We want to give them the tools to further their political agenda.” Shukla told Jewish Currents that the HAF continues to work closely with the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) and the AJC, whether by “being co-amici curiae on briefs to the US Supreme Court,” or by “lending our support to one another’s letters to Congress.”

[...] Faced with rising scrutiny over India’s worsening human rights record, Hindu groups have used “the same playbook and even sometimes the same terms” as Israel-advocacy groups, “copy-pasted from the Zionist context,” said Nikhil Mandalaparthy of the anti-Hindutva group Hindus for Human Rights (HfHR). Hindu groups have especially taken note of their Jewish counterparts’ recent efforts to codify a definition of antisemitism��the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) working definition—that places much criticism of Israel out-of-bounds, asserting that claims like “the existence of a State of Israel is a racist endeavor” constitute examples of anti-Jewish bigotry.

[...] In 2003, Gary Ackerman—a Jewish former congressman who was awarded India’s third-highest civilian honor for helping to found the Congressional Caucus on India—told a gathering of AJC and AIPAC representatives and their Indian counterparts that “Israel [is] surrounded by 120 million Muslims,” while “India has 120 million [within].” Tom Lantos, another Jewish member of the caucus, likewise enjoined the two communities to collaborate: “We are drawn together by mindless, vicious, fanatic, Islamic terrorism.”

Driven by that sense of shared purpose, the AJC and AIPAC helped train new Indian American political groups—such as the Indian American Political Action Committee and the United States India Political Action Committee—to achieve their aims in Washington. The AJC hosted seminars on political activism in DC and New York; it also brought several delegations of Indian Americans to Israel to meet with members of the Israeli government and military. “We’re fighting the same extremist enemy,” the AJC’s capital region director Charles Brooks told the Forward in 2002.

Unfortunately, the PokeAni zine I was a part of (Type Wild!) got cancelled recently so here are 2/3 pieces I completed for it! (more infos under cut)

First the print: the BW female rivals (featuring Trip) just chilling at a café. (Trip is paying) (he doesn't know that) (Burgundy's whole reaction is just "cry harder rich boy" tbh)

Second: A cute Sycamore found fam sticker! I make these four lil guys rotate in my brain like rotisserie chicken. They're important to me <3 I wanted to add a quote to it from the French lyrics of the XY game credits but decided against it last minute. The ones I thought about were: "Laissons donc s'épanouir les fleurs de la bonté." The whole song fits perfectly but I think this particular line is simple, short and fit the vibe I wanted.

The whole team was absolutely lovely and I keep staring at the art/writing created by the talented creators composing said team and like... I don't know man, I just love everything we created. Really sad that we had to cancel but that's just how the cookie crumbles sometimes.

I finished 2 different pieces out of 3 for Type Wild!. Those 2 were meant to be merch (a print & a sticker). The last piece was a page artwork which I shall complete in my own time and post whenever it's done (pss pss it's XYZ related)

Thanks again to Mimo and Null for inviting me onto this project. It was really fun and I loved being able to see so many talented people's creative process. You guys all rock <3

I was sorting through my old photos and found this Reshiram plush I made in 2016! I didn't take the photo until 2017, and when I did it was because the gray fabric was starting to shed a bit and I wanted to photograph it still intact for my records, but I still think its super cute!!

I just can't like BW Ash :( , it feels like they made him too mopey and dumb so Iris and Cilan and even other characters can roll their eyes or be the straight man and stuff like him losing to a guy who forgot to bring a sixth mon is downright mean spirited

pojsadoias I'm sorry but I actually find his loss in BW hilarious :v

I think after DP the writers should've just commited to the idea that Ash HAS to lose and made him lose in stupidier and stupidier ways every season asodjsioadjs I mean cmon, at that point we all were expecting him to lose so they should've just taken advantage of that. Ash getting sweeped by a eternal flower floette would've been the funniest thing ever and i would love to see it XD

But like, I think that's intentional in a way. Specially as a segueway to Kalos. Ash needed to lose in a embarassing way. He needed to have reality hit him straight on the face for him to change his mentality.

"Why was he so different from sinnoh thought?" you might ask. And while I admit this is all headcanons, you can't argue that the DP loss affected plenty of people and it's not farfetch'd to imagine that he acts like that in Unova because of that loss, the lack of a familiar face to care for him that Brock had been for so long.

Maybe he thought he was unbeatable after Tobias? Maybe after Paul he just found himself not that stressed so he did things without much care?

Of course the main reason is the anime trying to target new viewers with a "blank slate" but still, I personally like seeing those changes as something bigger. I understand not everyone does, but it just makes pokeani much more enjoyable to me when everything does connect.
