Hey!!! It's the Catch of the Day!!!

I caught a beautiful little blue doggy Electrike! LOOK AT ITTTTT!!!

And look at the IVs on this Panpour! I'll definitely be evolving it!

And to finish up, I have a third shiny Bidoof!

I swear, some days I catch zero shinies, and other days I get three! Heheh!

Current daily shiny streak: 8

Tune in tomorrow to see what I catch next!

I’ve been working on this one for awhile it was originally just growlithe and his beta puppy version puddi. But I got more ideas for it and it kept expanding until I had this Pokemon dog park.

Here you have your weekly dose of art dump!

Some meme redraws with Akari. Ngl I prob should have rendered the Spiderverse ones but didn’t feel like putting that much effort for a meme.

They probably just found Volo.

It just thundered in my mind. Emmet back when he met Akari, but he introduces himself in a full blown Maui style FKKFKFKFKF

And this has been their dynamic ever since..

The one time Emmet met Volo during a Ginkgo gathering

I don't ask for much in life (shiny manectric named sprite)

Preamble for those of you without a grasp on the probability of shiny Pokémon, it is 1/8192 from Gen 2 to Gen 5 and 1/4096 from Gen 6 onwards. This story is about Gen 3, so that first stat.

Given the number of wild encounters in a playthrough, this is a probability so low that some people could go multiple games' playthroughs without ever seeing one.

So, when I was a kid, playing through Pokémon Sapphire 20 years ago, I ran into a shiny Electrike on Route 118.

The problem was, I was too young and didn't know what it was. It sparkled, it was an alt color. I was scared it would wipe my team.

So I ran.

Obviously, I found out later what a shiny is, and the dread of having ran from my first one has plagued me for my entire Pokémon-playing life.

Now. Recently I have been playing through Emerald Legacy, a Romhack that stays true to the original experience, but with some balance tweaks and the ability to solo complete the National Dex.

I am at 80 hours logged so far, because I've been training every catchable Pokémon up as I go, to complete the Dex along the way. A fun challenge, but it also means I've encountered a lot of wild Pokémon so far.

I reached route 118. I've been training there before heading north because of its proximity to the Berry Master's gardens.

And he showed up. The shiny Electrike from all those years ago. He waited adamantly for me. and I finally added him to my team. "FromTheBlu" and I have been reunited after two decades apart and it straight up made me cry tears of joy.

My shame undone, a decades-old story updated. Shiny Electrike/Manectric is now forever marked as a favorite Pokémon in my heart.

For those unfamiliar with the phrase "bolt from the blue", it means an unexpected event (i.e. lightning on a sunny day). Considering shinies are a rare, unexpected event, and shiny Electrike is a blue electric Pokémon, it felt very fitting.

I got mad brain fog from a migraine today but I just had a thought and scribbled, okay hear me out-

What if the sides of Electrikes head are just, pinned back ears, and thats just how they sit naturally and its not just its hair/fur?

Can they move? Can they flop?

Manectrics got earholes so theorectically the ears are just stuck up against the mohawk too but their also separated in the linework so they have to have independent movement? Maybe????

I dunno this is too much thinking during a post migraine spell, but I had to get the thought out XD

Look. Im not gonna say shit. But y’all who know me know what im thinking.
