i knew people found nemona uncomfortable but like. holy shit. she is Uncomfortable
she comes on ridiculously strong, given she’s a Champion. She’s, what, trying to turn you into being her ideal rival right after you meet her? After you JUST started as a trainer? That wouldn’t even be so bad if it wasn’t the way she talks to you besides this, with her... bashful, romantically(?) coded body language? Her consistent use of the word “ripening” to refer to your development, god. I’m just. I don’t like this at all.
“Oh, I sweeeear I didn’t follow you here!”
“Why are you battling THEM when you have ME?”
i just. god. this is taking “friendly rival” several steps too far. i want blue back
#ac plays scarvio#arven is fine. i like him quite a bit. still no energy for starfall street#but man i am unenthusiastic about the gym challenge and a chunk of that is my dread at running into her

whats a cartoon you have really enjoyed watching?
whats a video game you have really enjoyed playing?
oooh lots of good ones for sure! i know this may sound tired since it's currently the darling child of... cartoon fandom tumblr? is that a thing? but The Owl House is genuinely i think one of the biggest contenders in its niche for its world building and characters. it's soo good, let's just pretend it didn't get its wings prematurely clipped by disney :')
speaking of disney shows tho my gf and i have started the DuckTales reboot and it's actually so much better than i think either of us expected!! it's gotten some genuine laughs out of me >w< also i mean this with 100% sincerity, i think you could write a legitimate thesis about how every single main cast member is autistic-coded in their own unique way. i mean that. it's 1000% more delightful to watch with that mindset imo x3c
uhhhhhhh oh boy not to run out of steam talking about video games but i honest to god think i'm a little burnt out in that department LMFAO 💀 i've started renegade platinum and it was pretty fun until the difficulty caught up to me... i still open ScarVio every two weeks for the raid events but i'm honestly a little sick of those ueeeeeh,,, and at the start of the year i was so motivated to play through the entire Ace Attorney library but???? now i can barely think about touching it?????? AKDJSJDJSKDK aw jeez sorry to sound like such a downer towards the end here i swear it's probably just work and other life stuff eating up more of my time lately :P to put a positive spin on all this i'm hoping to save up to buy Hi-Fi Rush eventually! if any game can reignite the game flame for me it's gotta be that one 👀
#vi answers#soupmode0#''not to run out of steam'' *proceeds to write an entire fucking paragraph* SKAJDJAJDAJDJSJSISISIAJSJAJSIAAKSK IM SORRYYYYYYY#I JUST LOVE TALKING TO PPL WHO ARE WILLING TO LISTEN 🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈

(BIG ass scarvio spoilers, probably ignore this ask if you're planning on playing the game) I mean yeah there's time travel that humans can't participate in for reasons that are iirc unspecified but may boil down to "we can only drag it back here if it's in a pokeball" but there's also a shrouded swath of dangerous, difficult to observe wilderness hosting a mysterious power that Changes Things, into which numerous expeditions disappeared after being sent in to search for something, and it's currently scattered with abandoned equipment and outposts from an ongoing research project that apparently used to be better equipped but is now directed largely by the obsession of one person who can't escape it, and it's also full of Animals You Know But Wrong, which are contained by the same barrier that keeps people out of the area but which are starting to leak out into a world whose ecosystem they would, depending on who you ask, either transform or destroy.
Also it turns out the most plot-important researcher is actually a doppelganger created using the Mysterious Power who contains the exact memories and experiences of their source material but is a more different person than they were ever intended to be, degree of inaccuracy ambiguous. (:
and i thought the ultra beasts were Weirdly almost SR-like, lmfao oh my god why. that part about the research project now directed by the obsession of one person, gjklf
(we've been watching speedruns so it's not like i'm concerned about spoilers lol, though we only get a very quick, vague understanding of what the plot actually is (and an understanding that Area Zero has cool-ass music). i've been in this weird place of, like, wanting to want to play? but i just see the performance issues and go, welp. :') )
- ace

For the Pokemon meme- 1, 11 and 22! And also passing along the be sure to stay hydrated train :)
Eeee thanks for the ask!! I haven't done tumblr asks in a while
1) Who was your first starter?
Turtwig!! I was pretty late to the game for Pokemon, but I adore him!! Sadly, I really don't use the line very much bc they're weak/allergic to everything
11) List your top 6 favorite Pokemon
1. Espeon!! I had one in my og Diamond file that just blasted through everything and that's what put it on my radar. I also love its simple and elegant design and I'd love to have one follow me around. I also really like the emphasis on bond and trust in all its dex entries
2. Raichu - it's just so big and looks so nice and soft and pudgy to hold and hug. And also absolutely strong enough to decimate my enemies. It also seems like the least loved member of the Pika-line, (most of its anime appearances are basically Raichu slander lol) but Alolan Raichu is nothing but soft pancake-loving perfection
3. Lucario - bit of a basic choice but i will always love this reliable ace. It was also one of my friend's favorite pokemon who helped get me into Pokemon, so there's the nostalgia points there. And no one can deny that Lucario's movie was, and still is, an absolute banger
4. Ponyta - again with the nostalgia play, but Ponyta was the first pokemon i learned. (I guess separate fun fact is that my first pokemon I learned wasn't Pikachu). I also grew up riding horses and still do, and the little childhood desire of being able to ride and own a literal fire horse has not subsided. It's also got a real cute face
5. Hisuian Arcanine - Kantoian Arcanine has always hovered near the top of my favorites list, but when the Hisuian form came out? Instant top. I love it's design and also it's callback to historic asian guard dogs. Also who could resist a giant fluffy dog to help hunt down your enemies and then lower your heating bill in the winter?
6. Meowscarada - after a lot of internal debate, I've gotta give the last spot to my Scarlet ace. Initially, I actually hated how the final form of our grass cat looked, but it's definitely grown on me (though the puffy sleeves and weird hand-paws are still problem but we're fixing that in fanart wut). And working to develop my ScarVio muse’s Meowscarada’s personality and arc for my slew of fics that hopefully will make it out of google docs one day lol has also endeared it to me. Also Scarvio has been the first mainline Pokemon game to really grab me since XY, so Meowscarada gets points for that too
Honorable mentions (bc that last choice was hard) - Eevee, Buizel, Absol, Torterra and Latios
22) - If you were a gym leader, what would your typing/theme be?
I love that this question says theme, because I've always wondered how Gym Leaders and E4 end up specializing in types. Besides for Misty, I don't remember anyone in canon who wasn't already a gym leader deciding to specialize in only one type (yeah I know Misty becomes a gym leader, but when she battled Ash in like. ep maybe 7, she barely was). Because they must've had mixed teams when they were up and coming trainers, winning leagues and challenging Champions and such. I much prefer some of the mixed teams of the ScarVio teachers in the Academy Ace tournament and then Battle Frontier brains in the anime that have a unifying theme instead. Like an international gym with all final forms of starters would be cool
As for me, it's so basic, but I'd love an Eeveelution gym with Eevee as the ace, maybe with Gmax, even though I haven't finished Shield yet. But if I had to pick a type, I think I'd go Fire-type with Hisuian Arcanine as my ace, along with Ponyta/Rapidash, Hisuian Typhlosian, Delphox, Houndoom, and maybe Salazzle
And yes!! Hydrating is good!! Hydrate or die-drate. Currently doing with tea

Playing Pokemon Scarlet
I have been playing the recent Pokemon release; Pokemon Scarlet, blind. As in, I did no research and I haven't watched any letsplayers or poketubers to understand any of the difficulty curves and new mon introduced with ScarVio. What I came to realise is that due to it's open world nature, ScarVio has an incredibly steep difficulty curve if you don't know where your going or what regions (and the nearest Titan pokemon, Team Star Base and Gym Battle is) you end up in wild encounters, trainer battles or at gyms that a radically overlevelled in comparison to you.
I had just assumed Gamefreak had heard people bemoaning the lapse in difficulty with recent additions and racheted that shit up hardcore. Leaving the player to fight Gym leaders who had aces several levels higher than the max training cap you have. Turns out I had just goosestepped into the harder gym battles; but because of open world planning, I can't tell where the next gym close to my level is. I literally have to adventure and hope I havent stumbled into an area 10-20 levels higher than my best mon.
It certainly turned my blind Nuzlocke attempt into a normal run because I had ended up wiping out twice before even getting within spitting distance of the academy. Once was due to Nemona showing off the central power gimmick and cleaning out my team the next time was a courier with mon 4 levels higher than all of my team on the route to the gym.
They still use the full-party exp. share that they've been doing since Sun and Moon; but unlike Sun and Moon you can't turn it off anymore. so if you want to level up a specific mon, you need to remove all other pokemon from your party to do so. making levelling up and maintaining team balance and not going over the training level cap very frustrating and very grindy.
I think if I ever wanna replay the game and do a proper Nuzlocke run; I will wait several months and once all the info/data has been mined from the game, do research so I'm not blind-sided by an OP trainer and lose the run before finishing the tutorial cutscene segments.

A coworker kindly lent me his copy of Pokemon Scarlet, and two days in I have some thoughts -
There are aspects of this game I really like, and others that I really don’t. Standout is that I’m quite enjoying Arven’s route, the wide variety of Pokemon available to you right from the get-go, and Koraidon is a very special boy, yes he is.
Arven’s character immediately stands out to me; he’s kind of an arrogant dick, but he’s got his sweet moments and is interesting enough beneath all that. I’m curious to see if he’s a stealth villain feigning incompetence or pathetic loser with a tragic backstory. I think I’d be fine with either. I don’t mind raid battles in this game; I’m looking forward to them getting harder.
Nemona, on the other hand... not only is SHE an incredibly off-putting character (I get the yandere jokes now; she’s not even a likeable one), I’m not impressed with the revamp the gym challenge has received. Trading out a puzzle and a stream of trainers before the gym leader for an insultingly easy minigame (I just cleared the grass gym) before heading straight for the boss is... I feel condescended to. Tbh.
Haven’t properly started the Cassiopeia, who is probably Penny, route yet. I’m... not sure I’m feeling the concept very much? “Clive” is funny, but I’m already pretty iffy about the school theme, let alone another team of delinquents. I’ll probably enjoy playing it, but we’ll see how the story goes.
You can REALLY feel that 30FPS. I’ve had to reset the game a few times because the lag started to get very noticeable; I’m getting the framerate I would expect if I tried to play it on my computer, not on the Switch. Further, I honestly think it plays a LOT worse than Legends Arceus on a mechanical level - that game was unfinished, but it was nowhere near as janky as this one.
Despite the open world, I don’t really feel like I’m “exploring” anything in this region. Taxi service, signposts every 10 feet... I know this is a “treasure hunt!” type deal and it’s more like being a boy scout than a real adventurer, but it’s not really the vibe I’ve come to expect from Pokemon and I feel a little off-kilter. I enjoyed Legends Arceus’ vibe, so this feels quite uhhh... toned down, by comparison. I find playing the new 3D mainline Pokemon games, I just get nostalgic for the old ones...
koraidon. i wuv him. baby boy
Mixed feelings overall! I’m enjoying myself, with a lot of caveats. And dear god does this game need a patch.

arven and penny definitely spring on you pretty quickly too; penny at least saw you trash team star and that’s... something, and it’s beyond me why arven clings to you when by all accounts he really shouldn’t care for you at all because your first meeting was an antagonistic one with no real resolution but like... at least he’s desperate for the help (unlocked his sick dog backstory)
man, nemona... i dunno. i think if she wasn’t the champion this wouldn’t bother me as much (i still wouldn’t be receptive, but that type of writing has never appealed to me anyway and the weird experience-gap would be absent), but i’ve got a bad taste in my mouth.
this definitely isn’t the first time the champion has taken note of you, but... yeah, definitely not to this extent.
i knew people found nemona uncomfortable but like. holy shit. she is Uncomfortable
she comes on ridiculously strong, given she’s a Champion. She’s, what, trying to turn you into being her ideal rival right after you meet her? After you JUST started as a trainer? That wouldn’t even be so bad if it wasn’t the way she talks to you besides this, with her… bashful, romantically(?) coded body language? Her consistent use of the word “ripening” to refer to your development, god. I’m just. I don’t like this at all.
“Oh, I sweeeear I didn’t follow you here!”
“Why are you battling THEM when you have ME?”
i just. god. this is taking “friendly rival” several steps too far. i want blue back
