Review shiny eevee and evolutions?
For sake of ease, we're going to group these by how good their shinies are, starting with:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The "I don't think you tried at all" shame corner (Glaceon, Leafeon, and Flareon): Doing all of these at once because I have the same issue with all of them: they are WAY too similar to the original colors, leading to incredibly boring and underwhelming shinies.
Tumblr media
Glaceon: Just ever-so-slightly lighter than the original; the sprites had a tiny bit more contrast but not much. I would recommend making the whole thing white, which is a nice snowy color; sure, it does kind of share shiny Eevee's palette then but Jolteon and Espeon are both green so it probably doesn't matter.
Tumblr media
Leafeon: The body is a tad darker, but good luck noticing. You could make the body a light green for something monotone, you could make the leaves brown or red, something autumn-y; literally just anything else would be better.
Tumblr media
Flareon: Flareon the least bad of this group and mostly suffers from 3D conversion (its old sprites were more red while the old shiny sprites were more of a brownish gold). Easiest fix would just be to make the shiny a purer yellow like the above edit, or you could swing the opposite and do a deep red instead.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The "fine, but why?" corner (Jolteon and Espeon): Both of these ones are nice and high-contrast, and are very easy to spot compared to the non-shiny versions. The only issue with them is that the greens here feel very... random? They're not bad, but they don't feel natural.
Tumblr media
Espeon: I like that it looks a bit like a space alien, but that really has nothing to do with the actual 'mon itself. For a Pokemon associated with the sun, you'd think they'd go for a yellow with a blue gem or something like the above (would tie it into Umbreon's shiny). At the very least, the green they chose feels way too dark for Espeon; a nice light, minty shade would've helped a lot, especially with a yellow gem or something. Also, I dislike that it has three different accent colors (red, purple, and blue).
Tumblr media
Jolteon: The shade of green here works a lot better than the one used for Espeon, but it's an odd choice for an electric-type; once again, not bad, just odd. I would've just gone with a cyan-ish blue, which is still high-contrast but much more on theme.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The "actually good shinies" corner (Vaporeon, Eevee, Umbreon, and Sylveon): These ones are all bangers; lots of contrast and with color choices that feel natural for each.
Vaporeon: While this one borders on not having much to do with the theme, purple is at least close to blue hue-wise, so while it's not necessarily very water-y it doesn't feel like it's completely coming out of the left field either.
Eevee: Eevee's whole thing is that it's supposed to be plain and normal, so neutral colors are a must. The very light cream they used here stands out compared to the darker brown originally used but still works with the concept. Using a cream instead of pure white also allows it to keep a tiny bit of color. (I'm not posting an image of the g-max here, but I think it uses the same cream so no issues there.)
Sylveon: Sylveon doesn't actually change its hues; instead, it opts to swap its secondary and tertiary colors. This can be a risky gamble, but it works here because there was so much more pink in the original design compared to blue, so the change still really stands out. Because it uses the original palette in different proportions, it also doesn't run the risk of the colors feeling too random. Also it's trans, so that's a bonus.
Umbreon: Umbreon's shiny is a banger and you don't need me to tell you that. Swapping accent colors can be risky because it's not always that noticeable (see that Lunatone review I did a few days ago), but the yellow was such a prominent and bold part of the design that the blue swap stands out, helped by the fact that it pops really nicely against the black body is a nice "nighttime" color. Swapping the eyes to yellow further helps differentiate it, and it keeps the kind of "eerie" look that the original's red eyes invoked.
Overall: Vaporeon, Eevee, Sylveon, and Umbreon have great shinies. Espeon and Jolteon have okay shinies that are high-contrast but don't feel very natural. Glaceon, Leafeon, and Flareon barely change and are just plain boring.

DxP REWRITE - Review
Doesn’t matter how cold it is - if there is a beach, Ansy will head straight to the water, take off her shoes, & go for a stroll. Rain (her Vaporeon) would often walk alongside her &/or go for a swim. This is before or after that walk, as Ansy takes a moment to reread Mizumi’s letter.
PS: how to spot a time traveler: since before the 1940’s Japanese was written vertically, while in modern times, it’s horizontal. Poke-Japanese (Hisuian / Sinnohese / Kantonian / etc.) seems to work the same way. Mizumi likely adjusted for the time period she now lives in, but since she’s writing to her great-great-granddaughter, no need for that.

honestly the leaks are a very bad thing. nintendo is infamous for its strict copyright so people are definitely getting sued or fired. And this might affect the way the next games due might develop, worst case scenario they're scrapped entirely or changed beyond recognition by gamefreak desperate to keep things new and subvert expectations. we got some cool beta content sure, but it's done more harm than good overall.
And as a Gen 2 lover who picked Cyndaquil as my starter in my first ever Pokemon game, I'm not looking forward to having to deal with endless memes and comments of "haha Typhlosion is a pedo" for the next few years to come.
As unpopular an opinion as it seems to be, I actually agree with you fully. I know most people are celebrating the leaks, but I think they have the very real potential to cause a lot of damage to the fandom, and possibly even the franchise as a whole. We can’t really know what Nintendo/Gamefreak will plan to do moving forward, but I agree, it’s potentially not good. It seems very likely that there will be pretty serious legal actions taken against whoever they decide to go after, and yeah, it’s also very possible this may affect game development plans, or future projects pretty drastically
The worst part of these leaks for me is definitely the massive amounts of misinformation they’re bound to spread. These leaks are entirely lacking in any context, further complicated (In the non Japanese fandom) by cultural differences and language barriers leading to major misunderstandings and flawed interpretations, many of which are being spread as “canon” information by large portions of the fandom. People are wrongly coming to conclusions that aren’t canon, from sources that were never intended to be seen in the first place, the content of which they have no way of correctly interpreting. It’s a shit show, honestly.
I also just feel weird looking at it. I briefly saw some unreleased concept art for PLA today, and while you’d think I’d be delighted, I just felt sick. I can’t really explain why I have had such a negative physical and emotional response to seeing (or even thinking about) any more PLA leaks coming to light, but I do. I’m terrified about a leak (regardless of whether or not it’s canon) absolutely destroying the game, or its characters for me. I literally don’t know what I’d do with myself. As sad as it is, that game is everything to me. It’s very literally 90% of what I think about and create. I want it to stay perfect forever, and I’m scared a leak could potentially take that from me
And I fully understand your frustration. I am a huge fan of both Mr Mime and Vaporeon, so I know what’s it’s like to have one of your favourites picked as the punchline of an unfortunate fandom joke, and then to have that joke subsequently ran into the ground. I love the cyndaquil line too, and had just chosen one as my starter in my latest PLA play through, just before the leaks dropped. It’s gonna be rough out there for a while I’m afraid, but hopefully it’ll blow over eventually. At least for the most part
After seeing the PLA stuff tonight I made up my mind. I blocked the leak tags and I’ve decided to completely avoid any leak content moving forward. If it’s bothering you too, maybe you should consider doing the same? At least until the fandom settles down a bit?

I despise it when people stereotype pokemon solely by the dex entries
(or some stupid fandom joke)
No, really. I can give countless examples. I don't understand how people know a pokemon is an entire species, but still act like they're all the same based on the dex entries or even how they're portrayed in the anime, like jigglypuff and ditto.
For example, it's become a gag in both official Pokémon and the community that ditto mimics everything perfectly except the face. It's kinda funny, yeah, but not all ditto are like that.
Another example is vaporeon... dear god, shut the fuck up. It's not funny, it's been going on for way, WAY longer than necessary and it's even gotten to the point where you can't even say "I like vaporeon :D" without either getting hit with the copypasta or being called a degenerate. It was never funny
Now, who I really made this post for are hypno and typhlosion. Typhlosion is kinda off the hook by now, but still
Hypno is pretty notorious, I don't think I have to explain. What I will say is - have you morons (not everyone of course, I mean the people who think Hypno are pedophiles lol) ever considered that Hypno steal dreams to survive? How I've always thought of it is that Hypno steal people, temporarily or not, and keep them in their caves as food source. The reason why they primarily go for children is because their dreams are more vivid and imaginative, hence making the dreams more fulfilling. It's like a boogeyman. A BOOGEYMAN. Have you guys never even once considered that??
As for typhlosion, I don't have much to say here. The joke isn't funny + the story was badly mis-translated by an AI. From that I've heard the typhlosion actually took the girl to his home to protect her from a bad storm. That's it.
Not all pokenon of one species are the same, obviously. It's up to you to think up how different pokemon act! So go develop some braincells and do that!!

The Chains Pokémon partner parings explained.
Hi this is that post where I try to explain my reasoning for pairing each Link with their Pokémon partner + a little fun fact about each Pokémon.
Sky with Dragonite
Sky and Dragonite have quite a few things in common. Their both big, loveable, caring beings who are always ready and willing to help those in need, their both also A LOT stronger than they initially seem. Sky being a literal demon god slayer, and Dragonite being a Pseudo Legendary Pokémon that can control the weather at will.
I imagine that Sky met his Dragonite before his adventure when it was still a little Dratini, they love to take naps together, and go on long flights around Skyloft.
Fun Fact: Pseudo Legendary Pokémon get their title from the fact they have a base stat total of 600, which is the same as most Legendary Pokémon, and are extremely difficult to evolve, Dratini taking 55 levels, or 207,968 experience points earned to evolve into its final form, Dragonite.
Four and his Eeveelutions
To be honest there really wasn’t any other Pokémon besides the Eevee line that had enough evolutions or unique forms/variants to give Four. But even then it’s still a good pick, Eevee can evolve into one of 8 different Pokémon. Jolteon, Vaporeon, Flareon, and Espeon being the most obvious picks for Four/The Colours, Jolteon being the next best thing for Green since there’s no Flying type Eeveelution, and Espeon for Vio due to his book smarts and relation to Shadow, with Vaporeon and Flareon being perfectly fitting for Blue and Red respectively.
I picture Four meeting his Pokémon between his adventures in Minish Cap and Four Swords Adventures, as Eevee, and then taking them with him through the latter adventure. And while Green, Blue, and Red found the evolution stones to evolve their Eevee at some point or another throughout the adventure, Vio and Shadow’s Eevee evolved during their time together when Vio was pretending to be a traitor (Eevee evolves into Espeon and Umbreon through high Friendship during the Day and Night respectively). And that while the Colours were struggling to work together during FSA, their Pokémon were working with each other just fine. After Shadow sacrificed himself, Four cared for his Umbreon.
Fun Fact: Shadow’s Umbreon likely knows Shadow isn’t really gone, but has no solid way of communicating this to Four.
Time with Celebi
Pretty simple really. Time is a time travelling fairy boy from the forest who’s possessed by a deity, Celebi is a time travelling forest guardian fairy who IS a deity.
I believe that Time would meet his Celebi some time after Majora’s Mask, but before the War of Ages.
Fun Fact: Time’s Celebi is nicknamed Navi.
Double Fun Fact: Time’s Celebi Navi may or may not actually be several different Celebi (Cuz there’s actually like a bajilion of these lil onions babies all zipping throughout time and space) and Time has yet to figure this out.
Note: Still a’nt actually settled on whether Navi IS multiple different Celebi or just one single Celebi. Tell me which one you guys think it is in the comments. I genuinely love to hear your thoughts and feedback.
Or I might make a poll or something.
Legend and Lopunny
With the fact that Lopunny is a rabbit Pokémon with a pink shiny, the connection seems pretty surface level, and that I paired the two just cuz I genuinely like Lopunny (Which I admittedly do) but when you look a little deeper into Lopunny’s character, they actually do have more in common with Legend other then aesthetics.
For one, Lopunny evolves via Friendship (Like Espeon and Umbreon) HOWEVER Buneary, Lopunny’s pre evolution, is actually hard to befriend at first, as Wild Buneary always start out with a friendship level of 0, (something usually reserved for Legendary Pokémon) Legend too is a bit rough around the edges and a little hard to get to open up at first, but a loyal companion and friend once he lets people in. As well Lopunny, while not one to go out of it’s way to pick fights, IS a strong and capable fighter, who could hold its own alongside Legend in combat, and much like how Legend has a wide variety of tools in his arsenal, Lopunny is able to learn a wide variety of Moves. Plus both Legend and Lopunny could totally put on one heck of a show if they wanted to.
I would think Legend meets his Lopunny as a Buneary after all his adventures where set and done (But before LU of course) and while they didn’t get along all too well at first, they actually warmed up to each other rather quickly and have become the best of pals since.
Fun Fact: Due to how Pokémon breeding and Egg Groups work, Legend’s Lopunny is able to be siblings with Fable’s partner Pokémon, a Delcatty.
Twilight with Herdier
I wanted to pare Twilight with a Pokémon that would not only work well with his profession as a Rancher, but also not overshadow or replace Epona’s relationship with Twilight, nor the Chains relationship with Wolfie. So I went with Herdier, A loyal and sturdy hard working dog Pokémon that just like real dogs has been working with humans both on and off the farm since ancient times.
Just like Legend and his Pokémon, Twilight meet his Herdier back when it was still just a little Lillipup some time after Twilight Princess, and they do everything together! Work, play, fight, and just overall in joying the simple things in life, Herdier loves to play with the village children, and is happy with its life with Twilight overall.
Fun Fact: Twilight’s Herdier is actually already passed the level when it should have evolved, but hasn’t due to it holding an Everstone, a item that, when held, prevents a Pokémon from evolving even when the conditions for evolution have been met. Herdier has the Everstone because it’s happy as a it is right now, and is in no real rush to evolve, and Twilight respects his Pokémon’s wishes to say a Herdier.
Wind and Clauncher
Again a pretty simple reasoning behind this pairing. Wind loves the Great Sea, the colour blue, and lobsters. Clauncher is a Water type Pokémon that lives in the sea, that is blue, and is a lobster.
Again just like Legend and Twilight, Wind meets his Clauncher after his adventures in Phantom Hourglass, but before LU. Wind loves his Clauncher, and Clauncher does love Wind back, tho that doesn’t mean they don’t get in fights, as Wind and his Clauncher are both hotheads. (Wind taking weeks to get Clauncher to stop attacking Arill’s Wingull, or any Wingull in general for that matter, and being VARY upset with Clauncher during that time. And Clauncher being upset when Wind thinks that he isn’t good enough as a hero or a big brother, despite it being completely untrue, casting Clauncher to become moody with Wind) But they can still both be sincere when it really counts. And will comfort the other when the other is feeling down.
Fun Fact: Wind’s actually had his Clauncher for the same amount of time that Legend and Twilight have had their Pokémon for, but Clauncher has yet to evolve due to Wind lacking the Time to properly train it.
Hyrule with Ribombee
I paired Hyrule with Ribombee due to their similarities. Hyrule is half Fairy, and Ribombee is a duel Fairy type Pokémon. Hyrule is a capable Magic user, and Ribombee is a strong Special Attacker. Hyrule has the ability heal his allies, as so too does Ribombee. Not to mention their both small and cute.
I imagine that Hyrule actually meet his Ribombee as a Cutiefly during his first adventure in Zelda 1, and that while Hyrule was apprehensive about bringing a tiny little Bug Pokémon like Cutiefly on a dangerous quest, Cutiefly did a surprisingly good job holding it’s own against the monsters in the dungeons. And after that, the two have been best buddies ever since.
Fun Fact: Hyrule’s Ribombee has the Ability Honey Gather. Meaning after a battle, Ribombee has a chance of just finding some random honey. Ribombee happily shares this questionable sourced with Hyrule afterwards.
Warriors and Aegislash
Picking out a Pokémon partner for Warriors was the trickiest, I initially thought about giving him a Kingambit, but felt that it didn’t really suit him, as while Warriors does lead an army and is a tactician, I felt that Kingambit’s style of fighting didn’t really suit Warriors. Aegislash however are known to work with people and leaders such as kings, and are known to be good judges of character, which I feel was more fitting. Also I thought it’d be cool to have Warriors use his Aegislash like a sword. (The Pokédex says you shouldn’t do this, but it’s been established that the Pokédex is being written by edgy 12 year olds, and a character did it in one of the mangas, so it should be fine)
Warriors met his Aegislash during the War of Eras, not sure if was already an Aegislash or not tho. Despite the communication barrier between them, the two often do battle planning together, and fight really well together. Aegislash and Warriors a’nt afraid to tell the other off if they were bing stupid, or pushing themselves too far, but also are happy to compliment each other if the other for doing well.
Fun Fact: Warriors Aegislash has a Sassy Nature, meaning it loves bitter foods and hates sweets. Don’t ask me how a sentient ghost sword can eat, it just does.
Wild and his Hisuian Zoroark
And finally we come to Wild and his Zoroark. When I was looking through the Pokédex to see what Mons would fit well with Wild and saw Zoroark, I knew that it would make the perfect partner Pokémon for Wild. A loyal, wild fox Pokémon and master of trickery that will protect its pack no matter what.
Much like the others in the Chain, Wild did not meet his partner as a fully evolved Pokémon, but as a Zorua. But he didn’t meet it as a Hisuian Zorua. They meet each other when they were kids, before Wild had the weight of the world on his shoulders, and back when Zoroark was still a regular Zorua, they became close friends, and where together through thick and thin. Zorua was there when Wild became a knight, Zorua was there Wild when he became Flora’s appointed knight, Zorua was there during the memories, Zorua stood by Wild’s side when Calamity Ganon attacked, Zorua died by Wild’s side during the Battle of Fort Hateno.
And while Link was placed into the Shrine of Resurrection so that he may revive and defeat the Calamity 100 years later, Zorua was not. But Zorua did not need the Shrine of Resurrection. Through the power of they’re hatred for Calamity Ganon, and they’re love for their trainer Wild, Zorua rose from the dead, reborn into the world anew in the form of a Hisuian Zorua. They wanted on the Great Plateau for over a hundred years for Wild to revive, likely evolving during that time. And when Wild finally awoke, it was the happiest day of they’re life. But it was also they’re life, as Wild remembered nothing of his life before the calamity. But even then Zoroark stuck by Wild’s side throughout his adventures in BotW, through thick and thin, and they defeated Calamity Ganon together, along with the Champions, and Zelda. And while the spirits of the Champions and the King passed on afterwards, Zoroark did not, as always Zoroark continued to stand by Wild’s side, through TotK, and Beyond.
The Fun Fact about Wild’s Hisuian Zoroark, is that it uses its power of illusions to help Wild recall his lost memories.
OK! This was a long post but I did it, I hope you all find my progress interesting, and that I did a good enough job of explaining it. If you want to look into this sorta stuff yourself go for it. Sorry for the Wild bias, I hope you have a lovely day/night and goodbye.

On the whole "Shinies are picked manually from gen 6 onwards, early shinies were auto-generated" - its... Debatable. It definitely seems like a lot were - which is why a lot of blue Pokemon become pink, such as Vaporeon and Kingra, while it would make sense for Pokemon like Gengar and Dragonite to get such horrendous shinies.
But there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it. The same colours get swapped differently on different Pokemon, and no one person has figured out the formula for how shinies are determined. Then there's the "gen 6 onwards are manually coloured" theory - and that is all it is, a theory. It does seem to be the case, as some shinies are phenomenal and would definitely not get randomly swapped like that (Pallosand is one of the big arguments for that) but then there are others that are... Just not very good shinies, like Talonflame.
There's absolutely zero confirmation from Game Freak as to how shinies are decided, and there definitely a TREND that we can see involving it, but they're all just theories.
Lockstin & Gnoggin has a video called "Is This How Shiny Pokemon Were Made" which covers a LOT of information on shinies and the speculation behind how shinies are made.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
i am seeing a LOT of mixed opinions on what is actually the truth here. compelling evidence from both sides, it seems? though two mentions of lockstin & gnoggin by now (though with seemingly two differing opinions about the fate of shinies pre-gen-6?) so i'm going to make a solid bet that we're all just grasping at straws and patterns for how we Think shinies are determined. is that fair enough to say? i always thought they were all deliberate and the ugly ones were just a matter of taste, with the ones that barely change being a matter of someone being lazy or something. but also i guess the "ugly" ones can be a matter of taste even in recent gens—i don't think indeedee's is that bad, and tandemaus… well, they could've done to change the actual body instead of the li'l pants they're wearing. togedemaru is definitely underwhelming. it would make sense that there's some sort of algorithmic approach to choosing shinies, especially considering how we have seen some shinies change in color over the years (see: the shiny ralts line, for example, in which they appeared purple back in the 3d gen 3 spinoffs, pokémon colosseum and gale of darkness), but then doesn't entirely track once we get to pokémon like sneasel, whose original appearance was completely different, but even after its body colors were changed in pokémon crystal and onward, it still retained the same shiny. and yet sylveon is still the only good shiny out of all the eeveelutions (sorry bleep blorp espeon and pink vaporeon), which was the eeveelution released in gen 6 (umbreon is still good, i guess, but doesn't change a ton), where we're all supposing they started "manually picking." i think all this was sparked from an ask about helioptile's shiny, which seemed to be a reference to something—i'm sure there's plenty of other shinies that fit that bill, but with over a thousand pokémon out there to come up with shinies for, are we ever gonna be able to prove that it's not just a coincidence? like i thought the nacli line was a very obvious minecraft reference but i don't think anyone agrees with me on that one. then again, they did go out of their way to name a pokémon fucking "lechonk" which i'm still not over being one of the most annoying names they've ever created. so sorry lechonk fans but i swear toby fox had a hand in naming that one

Champion Frolic Funfacts/Lore Master Post
Tumblr media
Here's a Master Post on Funfact/Lore about my very first experience in Sword And Shield!
Tumblr media
1. I named the player character Frolic because of Hop's name. I just thought it would be adorable if the rivals had somewhat matching names.
2. I stared Shield as a Nuzlocke, but quickly got bored of playing the game when I finally got to the first gym, so I set the game down for a few years.
3. Once I returned to the game and remembered I was Nuzlocking it, I lost my dearest Yamper in the Water gym and decided to cancel the Nuzlocke and play normally. I didn't want to lose my sweet puppers </3
4. After removing the Nuzlocke conditions, I found myself enjoying the game far more, and quickly fell in love with the story and characters.
5. I ship Gloria/Victor with Hop, Postwick Shipping is beautiful.
6. I do not really ship Leon and Sonia, I'm a soft-core shipper of them. I can appreciate artwork/fanfics of them, but I don't think I'll create much shipping content of them. I'm more of a Leon X Raihan shipper, and will def make shipping content of them. However, I also have my own ship with Leon. I ship him with my first ever Pokemon Oc, Oleander. I will post lore/backstory on Oleander in another post after I finish their design!
7. Scorbunny was my starter of choice, and their name is Scorch and they have an amazing nature that ups their physical attack power, which in turn makes their Pyro Ball attack a deadly force to be reckoned with. It says in their summary that Scorch loves to battle, and honestly, rock on lil Bunny Man!
Tumblr media
8. I one-shotted almost all of Leon's Pokémon, save for his Dragapult, I sent out Frostine, my Frosmoth, to ice-beam it. I didn't realize it had flamethrower. I one-shotted his Charizard with my Vaporeon named Mistral.
9. I completed the post-game in like 3 days.
10. I actually love the fact that Leon, for the most part, keeps the player and Hop out of the big and dangerous stuff. How he goes out of his way to handle things, like FINALLY! Adults doing their jobs! I honestly didn't mind the fact that the player wasn't going around beating down some evil team or something. Because I was honestly getting bored of that rinse and repeat plot. I actually enjoyed the fact that the player and Hop were just allowed to be kids and enjoy their journey, and the only reason they get involved is because they choose to do so.
In most games, the protagonist is kind of just pulled into the conflict just because they exist. But here, it's because the player and Hop want to help Galar and Leon. I know a lot of people really disliked how disconnected the story was, what with how the game didn't show you a lot of the stuff happening behind the scenes, but I didn't mind it, personally.
I was just happy running about doing trainer things and beating gyms, and connecting with my Pokémon through camping and eating curry. I've never felt more connected to my Pokémon in any other game than I do with my Pokémon in Sword and Shield.
11. I have many questions about how Leon survived getting blasted by Eternatus's power after it broke out of the Pokeball. Like how the fuck is he not dead? I even have a Youtube video I made discussing my confusion-
youtube
SERIOUSLY HOW IS HE NOT DEAD?! I LOVE HIM, BUT WHAT?! POKEMON, EXLAIN.
Tumblr media
12. It took me so many hours to finally get the berry sweet to evolve my Milcery into Alcremie. I kept getting rare candies, and the same sweets over and over, I think it took like three to five days in total to evolve them into the Alcremie with the blue berries in their swirls. Whose bright idea was it to LOCK all of the evolutions for Alcremie behind such a WHACK system anyways? Like if they're gonna do that, then at least make it so you can battle the cafe twice a day, and one victory gives you a guaranteed sweets prize!
13. The Water-bike kind of sucks, like even with the upgrades you're still kind of slow in the water, I hate when I'm riding the bike and accidentally hit the water and all the momentum just... stops. It's a buzzkill, like let me go FAST!
Tumblr media
14. I feel as though I understand Leon, I easily get lost in the game, and forget where shit is. Honestly, I don't blame him for getting lost. Without being able to fly from place to place, I think it would take me hours to figure out how to get back to where I wanna go.
15. Leon is the first ever character to make me read character x reader fics. I am not ashamed of that.
Tumblr media
16. I noticed while playing that Leon and Hop have such an interesting dynamic with one another and their family members, and I wish it had been explored more. Like, their mother and grandmother seem to really only talk about Leon, and there's no pictures of Hop to be seen, and well it just seems Hop is put on the backburner, while Leon is at the forefront of the family. I really do wish that this Leon and Hop and their family aspect was explored more, because it's obvious Hop really feels pressured to be just as great as Lee, and to not drag his name through the mud. In the game it's really obvious that Hop has some complicated emotions when it comes to Leon. He loves and adores his brother so much, but he also feels lesser than him, feels like he'll give him a bad name if he doesn't become just as great as him.
Tumblr media
17. Hop made me feel for him in the game, never before have I ever felt so conflicted in defeating a rival and crushing their hopes and dreams right in front of them - Wally is a close second-. Like, fuck me, this poor boy cannot catch a break. To be honest, him wanting to become a Pokémon professor didn't hit right with me. I feel like he would be more suited to a Pokémon Ranger type, it just seems more his style. Going out and saving People and Pokémon, still battling, capturing Pokémon, and filling up his Dex. Being a Pokémon Ranger would allow Hop to go out and journey far and wide, and help People and Pokémon in a more Hop like style. I feel like him being a Ranger would have been a much better choice for his character. Pokémon Ranger Hop was a missed opportunity.
Well, that's it for now! I'll add more funfacts/lore/feelings about my first Pokemon Journey through Shield later. It's almost 2 am and I'm eepy. Goodnight!

HEY! It’s me, Lumpku!
Thought I’d make one of these pined post things to introduce myself.
My name is Solanum, but you can call me Sol or Lump (or Sol Badthey if you’re epic)
I’m a 23 year old ginger, use they/it/she/anything non-male, demiromantic, exist in an asexual quantum superposition, and am bi/pan. Most importantly, I am also a fish
I have a degree in Physics with plans to go into a PhD program for research Astronomy. My area of focus is galaxy structure, formation, and evolution. I’m currently working on my first research papers, adapting my undergraduate thesis work into proper astronomy journal form. I love doing physics and take requests for calculations, stupid or serious (check “#lump’s calculations” for those I’ve done so far, these are my best posts by far).
I try to keep fully nsfw stuff off this blog, but mild nsfw is to be expected, so minors beware
Outside of research, work, and classes I can usually be found gaming, playing MTG, or putting way too much effort into my shitposts while watching something on my second monitor.
I can be found on a few other sites under the same username but am only active here, and if any mutuals want to connect on discord or steam dm me
If you take one thing away from reading this it’s GO PLAY OUTER WILDS RIGHT NOW. Do not look up anything about it, just play the game and then get your friends to play it. Then we can all talk about it. Please, I need to talk about this masterpiece with more people.
Now that you’ve learned about me I have gained access to your walls. Don’t worry, all I do is nibble a bit of drywall from time to time.
Too many fun facts below
My personal motto is: “The universe is scary and so much bigger than any of us can comprehend, so it’s our duty to fag it up as much as possible”

I love nature, and evergreen forests in particular. I enjoy hiking and mushroom and berry picking.
My most proud find is this massive cluster of morels I came across a couple years back.

My Vaporeon keeps drinking dr pepper. I'm not giving it dr pepper, I just buy a few liter bottles for me for the week and no matter how I store it, well, life finds a way. The upside to this is that it's bubble beam attack seems to do insane amounts of damage due to the carbonation, the downside is, everyone thinks I don't give my Vaporeon regular baths because it looks extra muddy from the dr pepper coloring.
Is soda gonna mess my Vaporeon up? I don't like looking like an irresponsible Pokémon owner, which I'll admit I probably am, but I'll kick the habit and keep it out of the house if it's hurting them. But at the same time, it's bubble beam is fucking lethal now, but I'm not sure dr pepper Vaporeon is League legal...
WHAT is with you people and your vaporeons
Listen. I don't know what the long-term health effects of letting a pokemon that's 99% water drink soda all the time are, but I can say with some certainty that if it's drinking enough soda to change its color that it's going to have issues related to super-high sugar intake. Take that thing to a vet, or a veterinary dentist, or something. Ask the people at your local pokemon center.
Or I guess you could switch to lacroix and lord over everyone with your poison/water vaporeon ig

https://at.tumblr.com/sylvaur/fusion-commissions-i-did-over-the-last-month-some/xpavefljfy3i
https://at.tumblr.com/sylvaur/legendary-fusions/ytuo60c5tt3h
oh! thank you for answering my ask, these were the two posts that got be thinking about it, i was referring to how the soft shading around some of the areas around the characters have a soft glow to them or a warmth that makes it look rendered
I'll use my Vaporeon/Ninetales fusion as an example to demonstrate how I do my glow effects, cause there's SO much going on in the legendary fusion files that it'd be completely incomprehensible to anyone but me probably :'D
Tumblr media
This post turned out LONG so I'm putting it under the cut, but TL;DR - I like to layer a bunch of different glow effect layer on top of each other, incl. behind the subject of the drawing as well as on top of it
So this is my starting point, i. e. the plain drawing of the fusion on a plain dark background. I say 'plain' and not 'uniform' or 'solid' or whatever lmao cause you can see that it already has a faint blue glow in the center that fades into the black edges
Tumblr media
2. I added a stronger color 'haze' in the background in neutral blues and pinks that match the colors of the fusion, and I (mostly) placed it around the focal points of the design, like the head and the ends of the tails. Looking back on it now, I realize I should've probably been a little more conservative with the distribution of this really intense airbrushing cause that would've given me a way more interesting kind of visual depth lol
Tumblr media
3. At this point I add a whole bunch of filters on top of the whole thing, mostly to up the contrast and saturation, adjust the color palette and to add the fun scales/frills textures
Tumblr media
^ you can see the three glow layers i've hidden here so we can look at them more closely now
4.1. If the character features a prominent pale color (which they almost always do), I like to make a layer where I softly airbrush that same pale color on top of where you can see it, so in this case the tails, the ends of the tails, the head, etc. I'll always set this layer on the Lighter Color mode and I'll call it 'color haze' or 'white haze' or 'white glow' or something to that effect
Tumblr media Tumblr media
additional example from my Groudon/Kyogre fusion -
Tumblr media
4.2. I'll also add a 'Color glow' layer for whatever the character's colorful glowy features are, and for that I'll use a layer mode that creates a lot of vibrant saturation like Hard Light or Linear Dodge, whatever works
Tumblr media Tumblr media
4.3. And for this fusion in particular I wanted to emphasize the ends of its tails even further by creating a rainbowy glare to correlate to its aquatic theme
Tumblr media Tumblr media
5. And that's about it! Here's all the glow effects stacked together
Tumblr media
Hope this was helpful!✌️

Can I convince you to play Octopath Traveler 2?
Hello my lovely followers! I have recently run into a problem where I have fallen in love with another video game and do not have enough people to talk about it with. I have therefore decided I’m going to do what I do best and talk WAY too much about the subject for an unreasonable amount of time. 
So! Why should you, dear followers of mine, play this hip new rpg called Octopath Traveler 2?
Well, to put it simply, this game was the most genuine fun I’ve had playing a video game in a very long time!
What is Octopath Traveler 2?
Octopath Traveler 2 is a new turn based action rpg by Square Enix, combining the charm of old school pixel art with modern graphical capabilities to create one of the most beautiful-looking 2D games out there. Like. It’s so pretty! Look at this shit!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It’s so good! Look at that presentation! Great graphics, full voice acting, orchestrated music, just. The presentation, guys!
The Gameplay
Now. Here’s the deal. I am not the most crazy about turn-based rpgs. I like them fine, but they can get very repetitive! Pokemon is a prime example. Rival sends out a Charizard? Well, better go get my Vaporeon and wreck his shit! And yes, I know there’s more strategy behind it, but like. I have never once bothered. At a certain point, the game is just “water beats fire, grind levels until you win” and that’s kind of as much as you need to bother with.
BUT
BUT BUT BUT
Here’s the deal. Octopath (both 1 and 2) is SO much fun. It is the greatest turn based rpg I have ever played. Because it’s no longer about elemental damage and sending out the right Pokemon that a lot of other turn based games use.
In each fight, the enemy has an unknown list of weaknesses, which you can discover as you fight. Each successful attack chips away at their “shield points,” until you can knock the enemy out for one round, weakening their defenses and stopping them from mercilessly beating your ass. (At least until they wake up in the next round and get to attack first.)
There are also boost points which build up each turn, just as long as you don’t use them up. Those either boost the damage on your single attack OR, and here’s the kicker, allows you do use a regular melee attack up to four times.
These two things in tandem open up a HUGE amount of strategizing! Suddenly, it’s not “will my Vaporeon be able to use hydro pump before Charizard uses fly,” it’s “do I use my turn to heal, or do I boost my attacks so I can knock this boss out before he kills me? Do I knock him out now, or do I save my boost points to do one massive attack once he’s weaker? Do I knock all of the enemies out at the same time, or should I stagger it so they don’t all Kick My Teeth In next round?”
It’s about timing! It’s about strategy! It’s like one huge puzzle combined with all of the terror of a normal action rpg! And it’s!!! So fucking fun!!!!
Just. I know most of the people following me are following me for my love of murder mystery visual novels like Ace Attorney, so this may be a bit of a harder sell than if I was trying to convince you all to play Murder By Numbers or Return of the Obra Dinn, but still! It’s not too terribly difficult to get into the game, and hey, it’s turn based! Reaction speed not required.
(Important note: Octopath Traveler OG is also just as fun to play. They added some cool mechanics in 2, and tweaked certain characters’ movesets, but overall, both are just as much fun. Try 8path 1 too! I highly recommend it.)
The Music
I have a running list of games with the greatest soundtracks of all time. We got Zelda of course, we got Kingdom Hearts, Ace Attorney, but Octopath is quickly clobbering its way into my favorites. Every single track in both games slaps so hard. Boss fights? Town music? CHARACTER MUSIC? I mean. Come on.
youtube
Come on.
Every song is gorgeous. Fully orchestrated, incredibly well done. I don't know shit about music theory, but 8-Bit Music Theory did a cool video on game one that I think holds up pretty well.
AND, because this game added a Day/Night cycle, most of the songs have multiple arrangements. Even the character themes have multiple arrangements. And I won’t spoil any of them here, but I swear, when Agnea’s final battle track started playing, I had the biggest, goofiest grin on my face. It’s just. It’s so good you guys.
The Story and Characters
Okay. Alright. Here’s where Octopath Traveler 2 goes from good to great. And here’s also where Octopath 2 edges out the first Octopath game. Now, this is not a dig at the original game. Play the original game! I love it so much! The characters are so much fun! The story is wonderful! But Octopath Traveler 2 does everything I wanted the original Octopath to do and more! More character interactions! More story! An endgame that isn’t deeply anticlimactic and actually involves the characters I care about! It’s so good.
Octopath Traveler 2, of course, stars 8 wildly different characters, each with completely different motivations and completely different skillsets, both in and out of battles. Different weapons, different spells, and different ways to interact with the NPCs around you.
And man, I love every single one of these characters so much. I feel like there’s a character for everybody, I’ve seen so much art of basically all of the main cast because every one of them is so different and interesting.
There's a favorite for everyone! We’ve got the dark, broody character, the pure-of-heart character, the character struggling with a dark curse. We’ve got revenge, chosen ones, amnesia, cowboys, one asshole detective who I am a little bit in love with. (Murder mysteries, guys! Come on! That’s my jam!) Often times, there’s usually one character that falls a little flat to me, but I just find all of them so much fun, even the ones with less going on in their backstories. They're fun! They're charming! I love it!
None of these stories are particularly complicated, of course. It’s no Tales game, where the stories twist and turn and build on each other constantly. In fact, by the very nature of this conceit, where no player character is the true main character, they can’t really build the sort of story other RPGs would usually have. Each character’s story is simple, even if they branch into different routes and do slowly start to tie into each other in subtle ways. Sure, there were surprises (and like holy shit to a few of these surprises) but overall, the stories are simple and straightforward.
And yet, even with 8 relatively simple stories, the characters absolutely shine. Sure, I took one look at the character who secretly did that murder in chapter one and went, “Ah. It was absolutely you.” And sure, we had an evil king who was so cartoonishly evil to the point of becoming farcical. But still, these stories didn’t have to be these huge, sprawling, mindblowing paths. They’re about the leads growing and meeting new people and bettering themselves. Each route has its own eclectic bunch of NPCs that bring so much life and color to the world, from the put-upon knight being dragged around by the world’s shittiest cleric to the happy-go-lucky scrivener looking for her big scoop to whatever the FUCK is happening with the Blacksnakes holy shit jesus christ what the actual fu
These stories made me laugh. They’ve made me cheer. They made me sob like a baby. They made me rage so fucking hard that I had to put down the computer for several hours and lay on the ground, which to be fair was absolutely the intended effect but I’m also still so fucking mad about it I swear to god.
PLUS
PLUS PLUS PLUS
Okay, I always say a jrpg with a huge cast rides or dies on their character interaction. Love is found in the found family y’all. And, again, it’s certainly no Tales game, in part because the game isn’t quite as scripted, but there’s still so much. Each chapter has a set number of side conversations between whoever is in your party (which if you miss them you can go back to that chapter in your menu and watch them anyway thank god). Several pairs of characters get to go on fun little side quests together throughout the story. Characters talk to each other during battles, which doesn’t feel like a ton but it really does add so much charm. They feel like friends, and even if they don’t tend to interact during story cutscenes, it feels like their relationships grow and develop over the course of oh holy shit I played 90 hours? Oops. Well. Whatever. That’s fine.
Anyway. That’s my pitch. Play this game. Join me in hell. Come on. You know you want to.

[request]
Thankfully I’m no longer in pain and the symptoms have passed but could I request some Adaman, Ingo & Emmet, and possibly Leon comforting reader when they’re experiencing lactose intolerance symptoms? The worst of it honestly is the intense cramping and bloating because it makes it a lot harder to reach the bathroom 😰
(As someone who experiences intense period pain I was really caught off guard by the intensity of the cramping and bloating because I’ve built up a really high pain tolerance level)
-Pierced Anon (experiencing 3am zoomies finally symptomless)
I hope it’s okay I do this headcanon style ^^;
Cw : it’s not detailed but vague speaks of vomiting.
-
-
Emmet
- I hope you are ready to get carried and or dragged to the bathroom, cause this man is a ride or die and he will be helping you one way or the other. Ain’t nothing stopping him from getting you there.
- If the cramping is so bad, he will need to be stopped from buying the entire shelf at the store, cause he’s buying anything and everything that says it’ll help.
- Does not know what he’s doing, but he’s doing what you tell him and whatever the search engine says.
- He really is trying his best, safety first! And he’s doing whatever he can!
- He’s got heating pads, meds, blankets, anything! Just tell him what you need and he will go get it, and make sure you have all you need. Emmet will make sure you’re taken care of no matter what.
- Drops everything the second you text if your stomach is acting up.
-
-
Ingo
- Perfect care taker, perhaps a little too perfect, maybe even to a fault. He’s a worrying mother hen, carrying around any lactaid pills, pain relief, anything and everything he has in his many pockets.
- Always checking in on you while he’s at work, even if he knows he doesn’t have to, he will just to make sure if he needs to stop anywhere, or send a same day deliver.
- Every part of your shared home has a trash can, one of those small ones that is perfect to put a grocery bag in, just in case you can’t make it to the bathroom, or are in too much pain to move and need to up chuck.
- Ingo will sit with you, rub your back, and shush you as you’re in pain.
- He goes to great lengths to make sure there is no lactose ANYTHING in any of your foods or drinks, just to avoid you accidentally ingesting anything you aren’t suppose to.
- He knows you can do it yourself, but it never hurts to have help!
-
-
Adaman
- I hope you like teas, herbal medicines, and being surrounded by his Leafeon, Umbreon, and Vaporeon for comfort. Cause it’s all you’re going to get.
- Adaman tries to be there for you, but he’s often very busy, but he makes sure his pokemon and that Calaba is made aware of your situation, just so you have the best care if something happens. And she’s close by, so it’s less stress on him when he’s at a meeting.
- He keeps a more private space for you, in case you eat something wrong, and don’t need to feel embarrassed about anything your body does.
- If you’re in too much pain, he can and will carry you to where you need and want.
- He’s always there to comfort you, holding you close and trying to keep your mind off the pain as much as he can. Adaman will hold your hair back, and pat your back.

Hmmm thinking about my oc au versions having otherkin connections to their canon selves(or maybe vice versa even)
Like going back to my post abt uhhh how I see my otherkin experience w/ the universes and shit, it would be technically the same with my ocs?
So human riptide actually being vaporeon otherkin(same, man) bc he feels the same connection to his canon self, the same way I do with night furies I described in that post?!! It's honestly a really good simplified way of saying how I think of this concept, but idk if it makes sense to anyone but me

It's Johto Duo Eeveelution time!
Espeon is a male and Umbreon is a female, both of them are supposed to be twins cause they both hatch inside of a one same Eevee egg, but they evolve in a different way, and since the Kanto Trio Eeveelution are the oldest, they're the second oldest sibling of the Eeveelutions.
Espeon is a gentle and respectful one, has the same reason as River(Vaporeon) but he sometimes doesn't need to protect them since he knows his siblings can handle themselves, except for the younger ones(Aaron and Star), he keeps them safe from any danger near them since you know, they're the youngest, if Aaron or Star got hurt then might as well get lectured(in a "not mad, just disappointed" way, even though he doesn't know you) or get completely mad at you.
Umbreon is calm and collected, she likes to go to some quiet and peaceful place since she doesn't like loud noises especially if she's busy or training hard, cause she might get distracted by it from focusing rather than the important things she's doing, she isn't interested in "childish"(she calls it that) acts such as jokes(funny or not), but that doesn't mean she isn't nice, she is, just don't want to let her guard down, who knows if there's a danger going to happen nearby.
Names and Personalities:
Day, the Espeon: Gentle and Respectful
Night, the Umbreon: Calm and Collected
They're the second oldest cause of the second Pokémon(Gold, Silver and Crystal) games, Gold and Silver was both released at 1999 while Crystal was released in 2000, since Gold, Silver and Crystal was taken place in the same region(Johto), Espeon and Umbreon are both first introduce in the these games, also the reason that they're twins is because of the two remakes of the game(HeartGold and SoulSilver, not Crystal since it didn't get a remake)
Ask from: "Pika" the Pikachu(Itzcrystal1006)
Honestly, that seems fitting for the Espeon that got paired with Sky.
For Umbreon to be with Twilight though- is also quite fitting. But Twilight gets teased for it.
For her to be so serious while Espeon is just chilling is such a testament to their characters as a whole.
"Hey- Twilight, she's just like you! Can't let anyone have any fun!" One of them jokes and laughs.
Neither party is amused, further proving their point, lol.

Can i request glitchy having a s/o that is also a pokemon trainer? Maybe her ace is a eevee?
okay !! :D this entire post is just Glitchy getting really attached to your pet; the post
glitchy w/ an s/o who's ace is an eevee!
_________
for context, i'd like to think that any pokemon in-universe imagines with glitchy would be ones where somehow his game and the pokemon games exist within the universe ( like game retellings of great trainers journeys among other things, and as ways for people who can't be trainers to experience a digital simulation of it ), and then everything else is just the same as the 'pasta.
either that or he's an alt-timeline version of original red who somehow has a fateful encounter with a missingno during his original journey that eventually corrupts him and his entire world, and he just becomes jaded due to it and grows up not even fully completing his journey bc he no longer can, n' probably finds ways to travel dimensions and universes to get out of his corrupted world. oh also someone would be able to control and puppeteer him like idk fucking arceus or missingno or something to keep that element of the og pokepasta, but that part needs to be workshopped.
i go with the first one though cuz its easier to write suhbnajnscd but the second ideas interesting too
_________
♡ glitchy himself well, he personally preferred pikachu for obvious reasons. it's sort of a trait hard-coded into him, whether he'd want to like pikachu or not he just kinda... does. although, eevee is cute too. even if he'll mumble about it being overrated or whatever, despite not really meaning it.
♡ whenever you aren't looking, he'll give your cute little ace lots of love and affection, scritching it under the chin, feeding it pokepuffs, the whole ordeal. his expression doesn't change much, but he does sometimes smile ever-so-faintly while your eevee purrs against his hand.
♡ ... due to this, your eevee practically follows him wherever he goes after a while, much to his mock annoyance. you find it cute, though, and are glad your eevee likes him since he's going to be around a lot.
♡ of course, if you ever want to evolve your eevee, the only eeveelutions he suggests are the 3 originals. flareon, jolteon, vaporeon, that whole thing. however, if you don't want to evolve your eevee or want to evolve it into something else he'll be... confused, but supportive.
♡ if you show him any of the "new" eeveelutions he's going to be very. like. "huh." but internally his mind is exploding a little. this happens literally like every time he sees a new pokemon. although, he does sort of like the freshness of it... despite being used to gen ones pokemon, the change is refreshing and much-needed as a lot of the gen 1 pokemon are sort of tainted for him. still, it's a gamechanger that takes time to adjust to. a lot of it takes time to adjust to, living in a reality where he isn't being controlled or in a game. yk how it is
♡ he has no personal eeveelution preferences. he's seen and played with basically every combination of Pokemon his players could think of. including... ones that shouldn't even exist.
♡ he does secretly have a soft spot for your little eevee even though glitchy constantly acts as if he's indifferent towards real pokemon due to being so jaded by his game, he does actually like them a lot. it's just a little hard to get over the memories of them being lifeless puppets and tools like how they were in his game. it's... bittersweet.
♡ although your eevee is like, exposure therapy to that. he eventually will get mostly over his past experiences. after that happens, he's much more openly affectionate with all of your pokemon, even though part of his brain worries about them being too real and too good to be true.
♡ one time you'll walk in on him sleeping in your bed and your eevee curled up directly on his chest while glitchy makes stuttery snores, and your eevee purrs in time to his somewhat odd heartbeat - or whatever resembled a heartbeat in him.
♡ eevee will also sometimes try to wedge inbetween the two of you cuddling together for attention from both of you.
♡ although, at least it doesn't get jealous or upset when glitchy shows you affection of any kind - it's still an attention hog, though.
♡ glitchy takes care of all of your pokemon as if they were his own. which, he doesn't have any and he doesn't know if he'd want any from his universe considering they'd likely be similarly corrupted and extremely fake and lifeless.
♡ he especially likes any pokemon of yours that resemble cats or small animals. yes, he gets a little embarrassed if you point out his love of small, cuter pokemon.
♡ yk how pikachu sometimes has event ''forms'' where its wearing a trainers hat? and like. how lets go pikachu/eevee can wear clothes? yea your eevee sometimes wears glitchys hat. just takes it off the nightstand or whatever when he takes it off for bed and runs with it.
♡ it gets to a point where it doesn't even want to let it go, so he huffs and goes to use his glitchy nature to clone it just to make it another hat. eevee sometimes even sleeps in it.
♡ he, uh, also might've made your eevee a cute little mock-trainer outfit. he took up making his own clothes, sewing, all of that stuff... he gets into a lot of small hobbies like that, and is a sort of jack of all trades. he likes to dress your eevee in all kinds of little costumes and outfits, homemade or otherwise.
♡ even more similarly to the lets go games, your eevee is sometimes hitching a ride on his hat or on his shoulder. he seems proud to carry them. he'd probably buy a baby carrier to put your eevee in as a joke. i mean he does call your eevee his kid sometimes in a lighthearted way.
♡ he sometimes bikes around with your eevee in the front ( or back ) basket. this is probably unsafe but your eevee seems fine with it, and glitchy likes the exercise... he always liked how freeing it felt to ride on a bike, and just sort of see where the wind takes him. your eevee seems to agree. he'll always allow you to ride with him if you want, of course.
♡ his whole relationship to your precious partner pokemon has just made him much more fond of the world and of pokemon in general... he seems much happier, too. he wants to catch his own pokemon again, but is just worried about things going wrong. although when he does he will get a pikachu as his ace to pair with your ace, eevee.
♡ overall. this man is extremely attached to your eevee and also you. amen
