So, uh... Was looking something up, and kinda started wondering...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Why? Why are Mime Infestations a thing??
So, technically I did find my answer, which is that "infestation" is not actually a direct translation of the Japanese name for the move,
Tumblr media
But that just feels like it shifts things into a different sort of weird...
I get how a mime following you around at like an event space or a big intersection as a street performer kind of humorously mirrors not being able to get away from like, a wasp hounding after your ice cream on a hot summer day. But then the mimes are still the ONLY thing in this list that feels out of place.
Everything else is either a bug, a ghost, or some kind of thing that does kind of infamously swarm or congregate like frogs or tumbleweeds or mold or whatever. So it still makes this synonymous with like... a Plague of Mimes, which is still very funny

My Pokémon Challenges - PT. 2
Tumblr media
Game: Pokémon X
Challenge: Nuzlocke
Final team:
Tumblr media
Duration: 03/25/2023 - 04/01/2023
[This is one of the easiest and quickest lockes I've ever made. I've always wanted to try the 6th gen for myself, see how it really is. I gotta say, appart from the difficulty level, it was very enjoyable. The esthetic of the region, the music, the customization of the character, the new pokemons... totally underrated]
Nickname explanation:
-> Kurama: I was surprised when I realized my Fennekin was male (stop right there you femenists and furries) and I didn't really know what to name him. Seeing I was a huge fan of Naruto, I named him after the Kyubi because it was the only male fox name I could come up with.
-> Asunción: I know, I know. 'Asunción' (Assumpta in English, I believe) is a female name and my Gogoat is male. But this song had been stuck in my head for so long for random reasons and I was just dying to name one of my pokes like that.
-> Paloma: I think the reason for this one is pretty obvious. 'Paloma' literally means pidgeon and is a very popular name. Not my most original moment right there.
-> Escuero: same with this one. The meme speaks for itself.
-> Goku: yeah, I think we can all agree I got too lazy with naming my pokemons in this run.
-> Happy: no reason at all. I just thought of the kinder snack and the MCU's character and Peter Parker's friend. Ironically this poke always reminds me of when I caught a female one through an ultra wormhole thinking it was shiny. Pls tell me you can relate to that, it was such a bittersweet moment.
[What is a nuzlocke? You can only catch the first pokemon of each route and you gotta give them a nickname so you get attached to them (and receive emotional damage when they die) If they faint, you can never use them again]

So far, my journey through Kalos has already had plenty of ups and downs. I already lost two pokemon, and they were the first pokemon I owned in this region.
I managed to defeat Viola, but not very easily. From here on out, I care for Pierce and Miku as all our lives depend on it.
...It doesn't lessen the sting, but I also caught a Skitty on my way out. Her name is Fancy Feast.
Pokemon Caught/Received:
Fennekin (Blaise), Bunnelby (Carrot), Kakuna (Pierce), Farfetch'd (Miku), Skitty (Fancy Feast)
Pokemon Evolved:
Kakuna -> Beedrill
Pokemon Lost:
Fennekin, Bunnelby

Pokeddexy Day 24: Single Stage
My most vivid thoughts about Furfrou are about the couple on Kalos Route 6 who double battle you with Furfrou. "How cute!" No. For me, that is my Whitney Miltank. They've been the tragic end for more than one of my Nuzlockes for some inexplicable reason.

hiya! I'm Blake, a college student from Blueberry Academy, but right now I'm in the Reborn region helping my sister w/ something. you probably recognize me as the kid that was champion of Galar a few years back, or the one that saved Kalos. or the one that saved Unova. yeah uh I've been around to say the least!
here's my current team right now
-Ruben (M Combusken)
-Viper (M Arbok)
-Raiju (F Manetric)
-Kelpie (M Goldeen, shiny)
a few other 'mons not on my main team

all of the other 'mons you probably remember me having are back home either at the academy or w/ my boyfriend. er... except my Inteleon Kappa, we got separated during the train crash at Grandview Station. one of the reasons I'm staying in Reborn for now is to look for him. if anyone's in Reborn who's seen him please contact me

(( OOC under cut ))
OOC: this is an AU blog for @pinkhairandpokemon where Blake is the protagonist of the fan game Pokémon Reborn! basically, this a fresh timeline split right after the Frozen Over arc (which I know still hasn’t concluded yet, I’m sorry I’m working on it 😭) where Blake travels with their sister to the Reborn region in order to help her with a ranger mission. I’m not sure yet if she’s gonna do an arc on her blog, but you can follow her at @pkmnrangerkaita. they’re also taking on the league as a sort of side thing. basically we wanted to do nuzlocke with Blake n Kaita, so I opted to just make a separate blog for it lol
everything from the normal Blake blog up to this point is still canon! they have the same pokemon, they’re still dating N, etc. also, some warnings and heads up: slight edit, we dropped the nuzlocke thing because we thought "oh okay this game seems kinda challenging to nuzlocke for two folks who aren't used to nuzlocke-ing" but apparently this game has dark themes! I'm going in blind so I don't know what they are but just be aware
there will also potentially be time fuckery? at some point Blake’s gonna realize the timeline split, so… it won’t be a big plot point, will mostly just be used as a funny gag for when they run into their “canon timeline” self on here. but like, just so you’re aware, this blog follows the same “oh yeah the multiverse and alternate timelines are a thing” rule as that one
Magic Anons: Off
Pelipper Mail: On

I should probably finish Pokemon Shield first since I was almost at the end anyway and I've been putting that off for a year, but I want to do another pokemon challenge. The gimmicky Sapphire and Alolan forms only Ultra Moon runs were fun, but the fairy types only in Kalos was too easy, though I probably should've guessed as much since fairy types have been op since their introduction and Kalos is notorious for babying the player. Oh well.
It's often hard to gauge how hard the challenges will actually be before I do them because even if I know the game really well there's always unexpected twists and turns, and the line between a difficult but rewarding challenge and straight up torturing yourself can be incredibly fine. So I've decided to just really toe the line towards what I think will be difficult but still manageable and at least generally enjoyable. I have some ideas, but I'm not interested in nuzlockes or solo pokemon runs, sooo,
*The Universal Randomizer lets you mod pokemon roms so that you get random pokemon instead of the usual handful that are scripted to show up in certain areas. Basically I'd turn that on, get to pick between the three starters it spits out since those can also be randomized, and catch the first five unique species I come across. Then that's it, I'm locked in, no other new pokemon except for HMs. If I managed to get legendaries or really strong multi-stage final evolution pokemon, I would ignore those and move on to whatever comes up next.

gym 2 team. Really it's only the first three because rekindled and statistical improbability and soar high are benched due to being weak and weak and four times weak to rock types so everyone say good luck to my beaver and my duck and my rose bush

Speaking of OCs, I've actually got one from my Nuzlock runs that's similar to Generic in terms of journeys in Kalos and Hoenn: Reine Sagorsky, Sky Trainer. She moved to Kalos from Hoenn and eventually becomes Yeltal's Scion/ Hero. Just from that lens, it'd be interesting to see them interact in that sense.
Tumblr media
(originally sent in April 30, 2023,,, good lort,,, 😳😨)
hang on I have to go look something up
[one search of the Mórrigan later where I realize I know very little about Celtic mythology] oh!!! I really like that, having Yveltal as the main legendary works exceptionally well in a Nuzlocke, where battles are literally life or death. also calling them Boss is very funny, like it's accurate and very cavalier fsdlfsdfdskfskdhfs
Tumblr media
no no, don't worry, they don't have to have title names!! reine already has a full name so she's all set with her character tag!
anyone can be any legendary's hero (like red being mew's/mewtwo's hero, but still having his own name, and the same thing with white/reshiram and ruby/latios!) the whole "protagonist" thing mainly applies to like... characters who were just spontaneously generated to protect their world lol (for example, kyogre and KK, or the Unown and Cream "WIP protagonist")

hi eric its me ian
do you like pokémon because i’ve heard you like pokémon and i. i really. really like it too. please. i’ve been a fan since i was little and have played at least one game out of each generation please can we talk. i. ough. i need to know your faves regions pokémon characters the like
@eggo-tistical HELLO HELLO HELLO IM SOSOSOSOSOSO SORRY ITS TAKEN ME S O LONG TO ANSWER THIS IVE BEEN BISY ALL DAY BUT I AM CURRENTLY RUNNING AROUND IN CIRCLES VIBRATING OVER THIS ASK OH MY G O D POKÉMON IS MY SPECIAL INTEREST I LOVE IT SM (I’ll keep all of this under the cut just so I don’t clog up peoples dashboards BDBSBSBSBSH)
OKOKOKOKOK so first things first the region/generation IIIIIIIII was introduced into was Gen 6 aka Kalos (yes I am young HAHSWBWHEH) and oh my G O D I have. SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH NOSTALGIA FOR THAT GEN. I replay X&Y AAAAALLL THE TIME just cuz I love those games S O DAMN MUCH?????? Like the design of the region is so pretty and the Pokémon designed are so unique and the music is so,,,,,, mwuah perfect. Nuzlocke comics also got really big around that time so that’s how I was introduced into Nuzlocking and HOOOOOOOOOO BOYO BOY
I AM A M A S S I V E NUZLOCKER. I LOVE NUZLOCKES SM. THEYRE MY FAVOURITE THINGS EVER if I’m not writing an essay over Luis you can GUARENTEE I’ll be doing a Nuzlocke. I got into them cuz I ADORED the storytelling aspect and all the creative comics but I’ve stuck around cuz I just LOVE the problem solving/mathematics part of them?????? I love all the insane strategies and statistics runners come up with and I can easily just watch multi-hour Nuzlocke runs for days on end
But going back on track kinda but also on the subject of Nuzlockes my absolute FAAAAAAVORITE region/generation is EASILY Gen 4 and Platinum. In 2020 I started my first ever Nuzlocke of Platinum and tk say that singular playthrough impacted my life in a way I can’t even describe would be a MASSIVE understatement. I played it through some REEEEEEEALLY TOUGH TIMES and it was such a consistent constant for me I still go back to that save file and just. Walk around with my Pokémon. And reminisce. It was also just my first ever Pokémon game EVER (if you don’t count Pokémon GO BDBSBSHSH) so I hold it very near and dear to my heart <<<33
My starter was Turtwig and I called him Boba Fett and now Boba Fett the Torterra has stuck with me through every single game I’ve played- I’ve transferred him all the way up to Scarlet & Violet and I love him SO much he unironically means the world to me. Torterras my favourite Pokémon ever I have SO many plushies of it n stuff <<<<<333 if I can find a photo of Boba Fett the Torterra I’ll post it
I also R E A L L Y love gen 5. Like all the designs of the Pokémon are SO COOL and Unova is such a fun region to go through and the STORY?? THE S T O R Y ???????????? I really love how they were kinda aiming for an,,,, older audience with it????? Unova just goes so hard
But I think if I had to nail down my number one favourite Pokémon game EVER right alongside Platinum it would be Legends Arceus. LIKE?????? THE STORY???????????? THE ENVIORMENT????????????? THE MECHANICS??? THE ART STYLE??????? ALL THE LITTLE BACKGROUND NOISES????????? OFS SUCH A GOOD GAME I think right alongside like. Resident evil 4 it’s probably my favourite game of all time it’s so stunning I replay it ALL THE TIME
I’m also semi into shiny hunting!!!!!! I’ve only ever really done it on scarlet and Violet but my favourite shiny hunt I’ve ever done was for shiny Mabostiff aka my other favourite Pokémon alongside Torterra <33 ut was right after my dog had passed away and he looked EXACTLY like Mabostiff except he was golden so I went out of my way to shiny hunt one in his memory <<<<<<33
I also really love competitive Pokémon!!!!!!!!!!! Have I ever actually PLAYED competitively??? No but I can tell you everything there is to know about it!!!!!!!
Uhhhhhhhhhhh what else uhhh,,,,,,, Torterra and Mabostiff are obviously my favourite Pokémon but I have plenty of other faves too. Like Flabebe, Sylveon, Hisuian Decidueye cuz it looks like my irl pet chickens, Meganium, Wingull, Jirachi, Delphox uhhhhhhhhh there’s probably more but my brain is soupy soup BXBSBBSBSJS
But uhhhhhhhh I think that’s it!!!!!!!! Someday I would LOVE to make a long-running Nuzlocke comic based off of my first ever Nuzlocke with Boba Fett the Torterra, and as long as the 3ds doesn’t completely shut down next year I’m planning on doing a Nuzlocke of the OG Red & Blue Games And HOOOOOOOPEFULLY Making lil mini Comics to go along with it if all goes to plan!!!!!!!!!! :DDD

All this Pokemon Z-A and Kalos on the brain got me.to pick up X for the first time in ages, and I figured a nuzlocke, because why not? But I forgot how odd this game was. Full 3d and no sprite for the first time. The big group of friends. The store sells pokeballs before you even get to the tutorial. The weird viridian forest clone. The new exp for catching. The weird little micro routes. Hell, the jump to 3d models... It all seems so quaint to think this all was a step up but it's neat and cozy to be back in it again, even if it wasn't my favorite gen.
In any case say hello to the team thus far:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Erie the Fennekin; he is Rash and Hates to lose. I was kind of banking on getting a girl so I could name her after Dorothy Dietrich, but I settled for naming my little guy after Dietrich's hometown of Erie, Pennsylvania. Dorothy Dietrich was a famous stage magician, magic historian, and hoax debunker known for helping to pave the way for female magicians at a time when the business was still fiercely sexist.
Dayton the Pidgey; he's Gentle and Capable of taking hits. Named after the hometown of the Wright brothers in Ohio. I was sorta feeling the precedent I'd set with Erie and I've always liked naming pokemon after towns or other types of geographic locations, I feel like it fits that good space in-between being a "people" name and a pet name.
Saturna the Kakuna; she's Calm yet Quick to flee. My naming schema starts falling apart here already... I could not think of any historical figures strongly associated with bees. I considered the village Sherlock Holmes retires to in His Last Bow, but it turns out that was never really named. So instead I tried naming it after the village/island in the infamous 2006 remake of Wickerman(the one with the bees), but that was also never named. So I had to settle for Saturna Island, the location parts of the film was shot in, in British Columbia, Canada.
Van Nuys the Fletching; he is also Rash, and Somewhat of a clown. This one was a stretch, but I went with naming him after Van Nuys, California, where the Van Nuys Assembly Plant was in operation from 1947-1992. Among other things they produced the second generation Pontiac Firebird. My father's first car was a 1971 Firebird Trans Am, and I've always kind of wanted to have one, but I've never felt confident in the commitment it would take to keep it running even if I could afford one in working order.
and Okuno the Azurill; they are Brave and Take plenty of siestas. Named after Okunoshima, the island in Japan that went viral years back as the "rabbit island". I had trouble thinking of anything with both "rabbit" and "water" associations... I considered Arnhem, after the Battle Arnhem that Richard Adams based large portions of Watership Down on, but that was... Uh... Kind of a not great battle in WWII so it felt a little heavy for a dumb little pokemon reference...
All this and I haven't even challenged the first gym yet...
