Going wild with Monster Hunter!

Featuring @imsamyed.bsky.social's pokesona as well :>

One of my favourite weapon is the Insect Glaive! It comes with a friendly bug called a "kinsect", so in this case, I replaced the kinsect with a Ninjask as it looked quite similar to a kinsect.

Going wilds with Samyed! This is ImSamyed's flareon pokemon sona. One of his favourite weapons is the hammer from Monster Hunter!

Nincada line appreciation post

btw you guys ever think about Shedinja? i didn't know this before i raised one but Shedinja is created (separated??) from Nincada/Ninjask with the same moveset, same personality... i took it to have its friendship evaluated and the woman in Verdanturf confirmed: my Shedinja knows me. it loves me. though seemingly just created, it has memories of me, and maybe even memories of being a Nincada.

and yet, Nincada's evolved form is standing right there next to Shedinja. Ninjask is the completed form, the imago, with that exact same love, those exact same memories. until that moment of evolution, the two were one Pokémon.

i can't stop wondering. what must that be like? what must it feel like, being the ghost of a living being? finding yourself empty, outside your biological body, but your body is still there and the one inhabiting it is still you? and what does Ninjask feel, seeing eyes peering out from the shell of its old form, and then finding that those eyes are its own?

I blame @ BillSpooks (link to their Twitter) for making me think of pokehuman bug girls more than what should be considered healthy. Ninjask and Shedinja girls! ft. Nincada (They are totally normal girls and are not affiliated with any ninja clan of any sort haha)

I was putting these guys off bc I love them so much and wanted to do something fancy, but I’ve decided simply to just slap something out.

hi Charlie! i come seeking your knowledge on the Nincada line :D

if someone has a Nincada that evolves into Ninjask, and subsequently getting a Shedinja as a result… what would happen if they couldn’t take care of the Shedinja? (where they live only allows one pokemon, they’re not qualified to take care of ghost types, etc.) would it be safe to separate the two and give it to a relative or surrender it to a shelter? or is the Shedinja still “connected with” the Ninjask, in a way? and on top of that - how high-maintenance (or low-maintenance) are they to take care of?

this is all hypothetical, of course - i’ve never had a Nincada before, so i just got curious haha

you would be fine to separate them. my sibling's shedinja has been separated from its ninjask since the day it evolved.

shedinja are low maintenance aside from keeping them safe from damage. they don't eat or breathe, and their behaviors are really just leftover automatic functions from being a nincada. they aren't really "alive" or conscious in the way we think of a normal pokemon (even including other ghost types). they do react to some stimuli, but it's on an extremely basic level.

ninjask, on the other hand, are not an easy pokemon to raise. i would not recommend one for home life. they're extremely fast and need a lot of open space to fly in, as well as regular access to trees to feed on. they're loud, too, and the sound they make can cause headaches because of the frequencies they hit. on top of all this, they are notoriously difficult to train and should only be handled by an experienced bug type trainer. i've only ever seen captive ninjask on battling teams or in places like zoos, and i think that's for the best!
