Saint just could’ve stopped napoleon (with virtue)
But thermidorians, aka future members of the directory, stopped Saint just (with thermidor)
But napoleon, he got rid of the directory (with a coup)
I propose we change the name of rock, paper, scissors to: Saint Just, Directory, Napoleon. I will not take any questions.

My personal favorite social media moment has to be when some random accounts were mocking the Habsburg heir, who’s a Hungarian ambassador to the Vatican, about Napoleon defeating his ancestors, and he replied something along the lines of “that low-born Corsican artillery officer died alone on an island while my family ruled” like what century is this 😭😭😭

Ok fuck it. Fuck it I need to rant. I'm disappointed to the high heavens. This just looks like X and Y again. It just looks like they finally bothered to get off their asses and make Pokémon Z like everyone begged for 10+ years ago and they're trying to relabel it as a Legends game. You know what the word "legend" means? It means OLD!!! It's a fantastical tale of days long past! PAST! NOT FUTURE! Why are we in the future!!! There are no legends about the damn future, only the past!!!
How cool would it have been if we were in the Pokémon equivalent of Napoleonic France? If the protagonist was from a lower-middle-class family (maybe even lower, a genuinely struggling protagonist would be interesting, especially within this time period), who set out with their Pokémon to earn money to help out, only to end up caught in the middle of a nationwide shitstorm? What if you ventured throughout the region, through the beaches and mountains and beautiful French/Kalosian countryside, all the way to Paris/Lumiose, where the societal rot is at its most obvious and damning? What if the "evil team" wasn't evil at first, just a band of revolutionaries with their hearts in the right place, seeking change and justice for the broke and starving public against the laziness and corruption of the self-absorbed elite? What if the villain was the king at first, because he and the other royals really are as awful as they're stated to be? What if there were (optional, because not everyone was against the French monarchy) side quests to help spread revolutionary propaganda or help the rebels earn money, gather resources, toughen up their Pokémon in preparation for future battles against the royals? Hell, what if there was a rival group of royalists who acted as the rebels' foil, whom you can also help and hinder as much or as little as you liked?
What if there was an honest-to-God violent coup where people and Pokémon stormed the royal palace and destroy everything in sight (and you could be there, battling guards or something)? What if the king was challenged to a battle and lost miserably, proving once and for all how weak and pathetic he is, and thus overthrown and exiled (can't execute him, this franchise is too cowardly to evolve past being milquetoast kiddie shit)? What if the rebel leader, with his dear Empoleon beside him, took his place and crowned himself emperor right then and there, to the overwhelming joy of his followers and sympathizers, dismay of his opponents, and whatever it is the player chooses to feel, because there should be a genuine undercurrent of historical, political and philosophical discussion about all of this throughout the story that encourages us to form our own thoughts and opinions about the situation?
Only for the rebel leader, the Napoleon figure, to turn out worse than the king ever was, and his close subordinates immediately going mad with their newfound power and practically destroying the country. Then they really ARE the evil team for real this time, because they became the tyrants they sought to destroy, and depending on the player's past actions, it might partially be their fault that they succeeded. Imagine the Pokémon equivalent of the fucking Reign of Terror. People and Pokémon being attacked, imprisoned, exiled (again, they're too chickenshit to kill people. Tens of thousands died during the REAL Reign of Terror). Imagine your new mission going from trying to flee Lumiose and go home (only to fail, because they won't let anyone leave outside of being formally exiled out of fear/paranoia about uncontrolled dissidents) to taking an active role against the new regime, battling police to bust innocents out of jail, reuniting families and friends torn apart by fear and force? Imagine a heated battle against the stand-in for Maximilien Robespierre to help put an end to the madness!!! What if you went to libraries and picked up newspapers and listened to the telegraph and discovered everything has been censored in some way? What if you went into houses and found depressed wives and mothers and sisters and daughters, and opened letters from the men in their families (and their Pokémon, too) who were conscripted into the Kalosian army because the Emperor is trying to wage wars against neighboring regions to fulfill territorial ambitions (which actually did happen, Napoleon's France was constantly at war, which majorly tanked the economy because all the men were sent off to die or be horrifically injured. Remember when they tried to invade Russia? Over half a million troops went, barely 1/6 of them came back)? The climax of the story + defeat of the Emperor in battle can be a nod to the Battle of Waterloo!!! The post-game can have the player looking for runaway rebels like how you hunted for the Sages in post-game Black and White! What if there was a limited time mystery gift event where you could win a ferry ticket to the island the former Emperor is imprisoned on, JUST LIKE THE ACTUAL NAPOLEON, and there was a final cutscene between you and him where you discuss everything that happened and he asserts that he did what he had to and he still believes that he was acting in Kalos's best interest!!! Because many of the revolutionaries really did think that way, they believed they were doing right by France!!! Even when they jailed and murdered thousands of innocent people!!!
But no, we don't get cool shit like that, we get AZ running a fucking inn for whatever reason and an "urban redevelopment plan" that's literally just "let the Pokémon trash half the city with zero repercussions or any consideration for the homes and businesses in the areas they overrun". What the fuck man
#I'm aware that Napoleon's rule and that time period of France is far more complicated than I posit here#I'm majorly watering history down for the sake of adhering to a plotline that would better fit the Pokémon universe#it's why I say that I want actual questions to be posed in the narrative#yes the monarchy was horrible. the government needed reform. but was this the right way to go? what could have been done different?#how correct is the rebels' philosophy? or the royalists'? should the rebels have been stopped before anything happened?#was the rebels' only mistake not going far enough?#history is full of “what ifs” and it would be interesting to entertain a few through such a fantastical lens imo#also HOW. IS. PIPLUP. NOT. ONE OF THE STARTERS!#EMPOLEON! THE EMPEROR PENGUIN! EMPEROR! FRANCE! DUDE!!!!!#hell I read someone else's post mentioning Snivy and Torchic. Fleur de lis motif + rooster aka FRENCH NATIONAL ANIMAL#how do you fail the assignment this badly#also just Lumiose? we only get to explore Lumiose? why not actually expand on the Kalos region properly?#Kalos is beautiful! FRANCE is beautiful! it's not just Paris/Lumiose! that's so fucking boring holy shit#I have more I can rant about but whatever. I just feel so let down#i wanted Revolutionary Kalos so fucking bad dude#Kalosian Revolution man. late 1700s to early 1800s France#you could've even snuck Les Miserables refs in there! that story didn't take place during the French Revolution but even so!#fuck me man give me the damn game so I can write it my damn self#pokemon#pokemon legends za

(biggest aai (investigations 2) spoilers possible DON'T read unless you have finished the second game)
god damn it, if paul halique wasn't such a greedy asshole and needed to make a gazillion dollars selling the stupid ultimate cookbook, then he never would've entered the baking contest and tried to rig it, and if he never tried to rig it then he wouldn't have told his son bronco to put simeon saint in that car, and if he hadn't done that then simeon would've been there to help his dad with the taste testing, and if he'd done that then his dad gusto would've felt more confident that he could win and he wouldn't have had to go take pictures of that cookbook, and if he hadn't done that then he never would've killed paul halique, and if paul halique hadn't been killed then the is-7 trial wouldn't have happened, and if the is-7 trial never happened then samson tangaroa never would've been falsely accused and he could've stayed with his daughter judy forever and ever, and ALSO if the is-7 trials never happened, then gregory probably wouldn't have been in court on that day and he wouldn't have taken the elevator and gotten shot and dl-6 never would've happened, and miles would get to grow up with a father and phoenix would never have become a lawyer and if phoenix never became a lawyer, then the whole damn series could've been the adventures of kristoph gavin and apollo justice at gavin law offices and there would be no reason for drew misham or zak gramarye to be killed or for vera misham to ever be poisoned and it would've been GREAT.
so basically, FUCK PAUL HALIQUE WORST SCULPTOR OF ALL TIME

WIP Game(s)
I was tagged by @justabigoldnerd @yallwildinrn @cha-melodius @nicijones and @pippinoftheshire to do WIP Wednesday and Seven Sentence Sunday, but I hadn't been writing much of anything LOL. I did manage to get something down so here's a snippet! (obviously it's neither Wednesday nor Sunday, I figured that would be the fairest solution loooooool)
In the beginning, after he discovered his predicament, he was relieved. He thought that maybe it was a gift, that maybe he’d better start sending a few prayers up there, because surely someone is looking out for him and trying to make sure that he doesn’t die at the beck and call of the CIA—months later, when he found himself bound and helpless, just a sack of meat to cut through looking for information, he realized that there are fates much worse than death. (He got out with little more than scratches, yet for weeks his nights were plagued by hands holding him down, knives slicing through him, echoes of the human experimentation conducted during the war. The nightmares dissipated in time, but they never disappeared completely.)
It's new fic for the Immortal Napoleon series, it got a little dark and it's still a very first draft, but it's SOMETHING
Tagging anyone who wants to share a snippet, I am so late that I don't know if there's anyone left that wants to looool

Napoleon collecting dudes named Jean like they're pokemon
Tumblr media
551 guys named Jean, 319 guys named Louis, 163 Charleses, 291 Josephs, 152 Jacqueses & 256 Pierres
Jean, Louis, Charles, Joseph, Jacques, Pierre. Long ago the 6 nations lived in harmony. Then, everything changed when the Jean nation attacked. Only Napoleon Bonaparte, master of all six elements, could stop them, but when the world needed him most, he was exiled
