#to flesh it out into a two-episode concept you’d probably want to have some kinda like; cyberscouts

[seveneyesoup]

new who has emphasized the cybermen as a loss of personhood but they really really have not leaned into the horror of it like they could. there have even been stories of maintaining ones personhood through the conversion but what about the opposite? what about a generation of cybermen that do not hide what they used to be, whose faces are still visible, reflecting an individuality they no longer possess, but that is meaningful to the people they used to belong to? the “ghosts” of doomsday were imagined to be dead loved ones, but what if you saw their face? what if your grandfather was looking you in the face but did not recognize you. what if he offered a way to take away the pain of loss. what if the ordeal was over and the danger was done and the thing piloting his body survived it intact. what if he was right there but you could never, ever have him back. what then

Whump Fanfic Ideas: Quantum Leap

I have an absolute warehouse of fanfic I’ve started but never progressed to the point of actually creating a story.  This one was started in 2014 and, while I think the concept is solid, it suffers from being a “bottle episode” in that Sam is stuck in the same room for the entirety of the fic.  I lost steam after about a page as I realized it would be repetitive and boring.  However, this little bit survives and feels quite nice on its own.

__________________________________________________________

Through all my years of leaping, one thing has remained a constant.  The unpredictability of what I'll face with every new life I leap into.  I've found myself everywhere from the hood of a speeding car to hanging from a high wire.  And while not every leap involved the risk of life and limb, I'd let my pessimism take over my expectations... and come to expect the worst. There were times I hated being right.

There was no time to react.  Waning energy had left him numb – a familiar side effect of leaping.  But it also left him vulnerable and in the seconds between trading his life with another, Sam had no chance to defend himself.

The blow struck him just as the last bit of soft glow faded from his skin, knocking him to the floor with no way to brace his fall.  His shoulder struck first and while he considered it lucky his head was spared a second impact from the concrete, he didn't feel the full measure of that luck when he heard a snap and felt a rush of hot pain flare through his collar bone. Gasping around the sudden agony, he blinked to get his eyes in focus – still struggling to figure out what the hell was going on.

Concrete floor.  Check.  Unknown assailant.  Check.  Al...  Where was Al?  Hands moved into his line of sight and Sam immediately lurched back – scooting away from whatever being they were attached to.

“Not so fast, boy!”

Sweeping his legs towards the form bearing down on him, he managed to knock the man off his feet and scramble to his own, giving the room a quick scan in search of anything resembling an exit.  There! A door on the opposite end!  A stumbling run, shoulder burning beneath his hand, he grabbed the knob and twisted.  Dammit, locked!  

“Where you think you're goin'?”  

Sam started to turn towards the voice when his body was slammed against the door, forcing out a pained groan from the impact.  The hands grabbed him seconds later and once more his body was sent towards the floor as he was hurled away from his only chance at escape.  Curling as he landed he managed to avoid another broken bone, but it did nothing to aid the single injury he'd already sustained – throbbing ache shooting into agony when he struck the concrete a second time.  Vision skated sickeningly while he tried to get his body to react.  To get away.  As if there were anywhere to go.

Lurch was already stomping his way again and Sam could only tense himself as the grip of fingers wrapped around his bicep.

“Now you gonna play nice?  Or do we need to... chat some more?”

Finally a good look at his assailant did nothing for adrenaline cooked nerves.  Holy cow, the guy was a monster!  Easily six foot ten, and packing more meat than a healthy steer – the WWF wouldn't hesitate to snap the guy up in a heartbeat.  Unfortunately for Sam, he suspected only one kind of snapping was going to take place in the near future.

“P-play nice?”

The grin filled with stained teeth wasn't as benign as he could have hoped for but at least Tall and Broad hadn't tried to throw him across the room again.

“I was hoping you'd see things my way.  Now, you gonna sit still this time?”

Sit still for what?  Nothing about that question sounded like it would end pleasantly.  Particularly not when the huge man pulled a switch blade from his back pocket.

Sam immediately pressed as far into the wall as he was able as the blade lifted towards his face.

“Uhhh...”

“What do you think we should send first, huh?  An ear?  Nose?  Or... you know... I've always been kinda partial to the tongue.”  Emphasizing the thought, the man waggled his own through a wide smile.

Sam gulped.  “H-how about j-just a phone call, huh?”  He tried smiling back but the blade moving to settle against his cheek seemed to cut the muscles controlling his lips.

“How about I take one of those pretty eyes instead?  You only need one after all.”  The sharp tip moved upward to press just beneath his lower lid and Sam's breath froze in his chest – the closeness snapping his eyes shut in a tight squeeze.  He could feel his hands trembling against the floor and was about to let panic get away with him when it was put on hold with the sound of the imaging chamber door sliding open.

“Sam, don't move!”  Al's warning the moment he was out, while providing some relief that his friend was nearby, made him want to roll his eyes at the same time.  A bad idea considering where that blade was resting.

“Now come on; just open up those beautiful brown eyes so I can decide between them.  Your poppa is gonna want to have proof of life before he'll take me seriously.”

“How... how is mutilating me going to p-prove to him I'm still a-alive?”  Refusing the order, Sam kept his eyes tightly shut and listened to the sound of Al nearby – the squealing handlink and the pounding of a fist against the stubborn device as well as the fast breaths that indicated his friend was just as anxious as he was.

“Hold tight, kid, Ziggy's still trying to work out what's going on!  We uh, we know your name is Danny Phillips, you're eighteen years old and you're from Westmont, California.  It's January fifth, nineteen ninety.  You went missing two nights ago when you failed to return home after a game at your high school.”

“Guess I'll just have to pick one then.”  Overlapping Al's hurried update, the large man began to press the blade down.

“NO!”  Sam jerked backward at the sting of cut flesh and Al's yell, trying to twist away before the act could be completed.  The movement earned him a shallow slice across the apple of his cheek but for some reason his captor allowed him to escape without a far worse... far more permanent injury.

“So it's back to... chatting... That's too bad.”

Holding his bleeding face while Al stood beside him, beating furiously at the handlink, Sam staring as the other man got to his feet and dropped the knife back into his pocket.  

“Why do I get a bad feeling about this?”  As he spoke, Al automatically moved to stand in front of his friend – insubstantial and unseen by the assailant looming over them both.  “Don't you touch him you piece of filth!”  He hissed.

Sam scooted along the wall, creating a bit more distance – though it was soon lost as the man followed along.  

“Look, we can talk this out...” Probably the wrong suggestion given how the man tended to converse.

“Gooshie, I need to know who the hell this guy is right now!”  More slaps, more squeals, more cursing, and Sam desperately wanted to curse as well – ask Gooshie – hell, scream at the sour breathed assistant for answers.  But there was no time for anything beyond the thought as his attacker suddenly charged forward.

“Sam, look out!”

No time for anything but a shout of pain as a foot lashed out and impacted his gut.  Curling around the injury, Sam barely heard the shouts of his friend over the pounding in his ears.  

“Leave him alone!”

The hands were back, digging into his arms and Sam couldn't stop himself from crying out as his broken collarbone was wrenched with the motion.  Once more the sensation of weightlessness before his body slammed into the opposite wall.  His head smacked hard and he grayed out for a second after sliding back to the floor.  Footsteps followed after him and another slam to his gut reminded him that the conversation was far from over.

“STOP IT!”

But the man wasn't listening to Al.  He was bent over his captive and yanking him up by his hair.  Sam hissed as he struggled to his knees under the less than gentle urging.

“You ain't looking so good, boy.  You sure you wanna keep talking?  I promise I can make it quick.  You'll barely even feel it.”

Sam spat blood and shivered, one arm wrapped around his middle while the other hung at his side. “S-somehow I doubt... doubt that...”

Hello I am back again, mostly because I'm curious and you seem to have more infomation about the newer series of transformers while I am in the dark ages. By dark ages, I mean I got through Gen 1 and beast wars and then never finished. What are recommendations about the newer Transformer series, as a place to start?

Hello again :3 Now I haven’t seen every modern TF cartoon but i’ve seen a handful, and I’m definitely not biased in recommending Transformers Animated to start xD The characters are cute and charming and all get some awesome development through the show, the style might take some getting used to for some but you grow to love it, the writing is amazing, the world building is absolutely nuts and so in-depth and all its stories are really interesting and entertaining. it spins a lot of TF concepts on their heads (prime is a rookie rather than some well-known leader, cybertron’s fine and under autobot control rather than Dead Completely, the war is long over but threatening to start up again…) It’s also got LOADS of characters (so you’ll probably have at least one favorite, or end up like me wiTH SEVERAL–) and throwbacks to earlier series that don’t feel forced or out of place. The only problems I have with the series is the fact that it got cancelled (not its fault) so when you finish it you’re left with a whole lotta salt at hasbro and cartoon network, and the human villains are kinda annoying but IMO they’re not the worst thing ever xD They don’t even appear that often. It can be really lighthearted and silly but it has its darker moments and episodes, and it gets more serious in season three. It’s got lots of what i think is called “fridge horror” too so that’s fun. It’s also neat because of how it doesn’t just blatantly paint the bots as Good Guys and the cons as Bad Guys, I mean the cons are definitely still horrible but they’re not just Evil For The Hell Of It, and the autobots do a lot of… really questionable things. Things are more gray than usual. If you watch and like it pls go email hasbro asking for season four lsjkdfjkldf

Then there’s Transformers Prime, which came after Animated - It was made for older audiences (teens iirc) and def gets pretty… dark. But the animation is really nice and the characters are too, especially the decepticons. Actually, the cons are more entertaining than the autobots half the time xD the human characters start out annoying (… okay, mainly Miko) but get some nice development over the course of the show (ironically again Miko gets the most development, she’s awesome by the end). Its my second favorite series I’ve seen and it does have a few boring episodes (there are literally… TWO recap episodes in the second season. because i guess the budget was dead or they were just too lazy to put effort into writing to progress the plot idfk, worst part is you can’t even skip them (unless you’d rather go read what happens Up To You) because the 5% that isn’t recap is necessary plot progression aaAAA) and the characters aren’t as fleshed out as they are in animated but it’s still absolutely worth a watch.

there’s a few more cartoons that have come out that i haven’t seen fully or at all. rescue bots lost me cuz its aimed at toddlers, i don’t like the direction they took with prime’s continuation Robots In Disguise but I wont tell you not to watch it just because i personally dont like it, research it on your own if you like Prime and maybe watch some episodes, come to your own conclusion, aaand i’ve seen the first ten episodes or so of Cyberverse which is the newest one? It’s not bad, but the voice acting is my biggest problem which is mediocre at best (not the voice talents, the voices are good for the most part!! but the way everyone delivers their lines just sounds,,, so bad. most of the time. its like it was fan-made, folks are trying their best but still not quite hitting the mark. and that’s fine if it WERE fan-made, but it’s… official… .. i heard it got better but i haven’t picked it back up yet to find out) and since the episodes are only 11 minutes long each it’s a good show to watch idly when you feel like it. it’s also,,, really silly. like almost G1 levels of silly at some points. and the character designs are nice, not my faves but they’re solid. IMO Bee is the best thing in the whole series, he’s just… such a good bean. If silly, simple, and a little throwback-y with a side of kinda-crap voicework that you can overlook is your thing I’d check it out, like I said for me it’s a good idle watch - something you can just, checkout whenever you have the time.

I also forgot to mention there’s the Unicron trilogy from the early to mid 2000s, I didn’t see the first two shows (Armada and Energon) but I did see Cybertron as a kid. It’s okay from what I remember¯\_(ツ)_/¯Been meaning to rewatch it and see if it’s still any good. From what I hear the first two are Trash and Cybertron is the only good show among them, and I remember enjoying Cybertron, so do with that info what you will.

This got reeeeally long and I’m not the best at reviewing shows so TLDR, in order of “PLEASE WATCH” to “meh”:

Animated is Cute and Very Well-Written, a Must Watch

Prime is Dark but More Or Less Solid, good for if you want a more serious tone for your giant robots. Highly Recommended.

Cyberverse is fun but the voiceacting is kinda weird, but still can be fun to watch every now and then if you can ignore it. I say watch a few episodes and see how you feel after that.

RiD2015 I didn’t care for but you should research it on your own and see if it’s up your alley.

[larksinging]

oh and also one i keep meaning to send out! do you remember like... the moments when you decided you wanted to rp the characters on your roster? or the moments where they really started to interest you? what was it about them that influenced that decision?

oh wow this is a good one

winter... i think he was the first wof character i’d heard about, since i saw an amv or map about him around when winter turning came out? i was intrigued. and then when i was thinking of joining denny i needed a character, and i was reading through wof, and just. i wish i could remember what scene it was, but it was some part of his introspection in winter turning i was just like “there he is. my boy” and there we go. plus he had castmates, and you and fate responded well to the idea, so. i could tell he’d be a good rp character

maria came before maive, right? right. i think youd said something once about how someone should rp her, and that got me thinking. im pretty sure its on film during the memestream where i went “....i could rp maria” and it kind of dawned on me. it was a nice way to explore her character more and just do silent hill stuff! 

maive then, i knew i wanted to app an oc and probably a sparklewolf but i wasn’t sure who or when. but maive had some art, due to a couple previous incarnations, and she was a character i had remade many times for many different aus but never really settled on a final version.... so i took the best bits of her arc, went with a younger version. i think i made an offhand joke about her and someone seemed interested so i decided to give it a shot. honestly i don’t remember a lot of like,my decision to yolo maive or anything. or did i wait to try her until i apped her? i did that a lot early on

who was next, um, mothwhisper? yeah. the clans were starting to get going a bit more and i knew i wanted at least one clan cat. i hadn’t decided on a canon so i wanted to try an oc. originally i was gonna do hawkclaw, but... people mentioned some medicine cats, and i realized that might be fun. so i took mothpaw, who was only a vague concept in hawkclaw’s story, fleshed her out a bit, and apped her real quick! 

now back to canons. ivypool.... i went back to re-read OOTS for some reason, or maybe read it the first time, and i just really fell in love with ivypool. even early on -- im a sucker for characters who are self-conscious and insecure and have sibling issues. then she becomes really cool and by the end is helping lead the battle really... i think someone else briefly apped ivypool, and thats kind of when i knew i wanted to rp her. it wasnt until later when whoever that was kinda vanished that i did

nyssa i first saw in your wanted list for arrowverse and was immediately intruiged, i think because you sold her as “a tragic lesbian love story with a shitty family” and hey, im here for that. actually she might’ve been why i watched arrow at all? and by s2 i was really hooked and her episode came on and i was like “yeah”. it was just inevitable. also i remember distinctly like, at that time i felt my roster was a bit too similar in age and tropes, with a lot of young damaged characters... so nyssa, who was older and very composed was a very nice contrast to that. 

laurel, on the other hand. i knew vaguely of her existence for a while and i was a bit curious, because i did like laurel a lot, but i was like “i wont like her as much as nyssa”. and then she showed up. i think? i must have watched her arrow appearance first, but i don’t remember.... anyway just the like, dramatic asshole villain tinged with some underlying tragedy just got me hook line and sinker. what can i say, i love characters with identity issues and doppelgangers. 

margot i was curious about because, well, i heard about the ship, and you’d mentioned her in characters i might like, but i didn’t want to get TOO ahead of myself. and then she showed up and immediately something about that really barely restrained anger and resignation won me over. i told myself to reserve judgement until id watched more but really, in my heart, i knew i was gonna try her out from that first episode. and then i yolo’d her on an impulse with you and tony and she really came easily to me and you two seemed to like her, so... she managed to finally quiet down my laurel muse, which was starting to burn out at both ends, so that was nice

and ill include violetpaw even though shes not claimed yet. i picked up AVOS for needletail, actually, thinking that id like her from what i heard. but i liked violetpaw instead? so much of her arc is about feeling left out an abandoned and then getting caught up in all these horrible machinations of darktail. one thing that always really got me was like, how DARKTAIL feels a kinship with violetpaw because he sees them both as abandoned and unwanted by their blood kin. anyway i think i fell in love with her in this one scene, where violetpaw and twigpaw run into each other and twigpaw...i dont remember the full context enough to explain but twigpaw talks about something and violetpaw doesn’t really react and twigpaw goes “oh violetpaw, when did you stop expecting to be loved?”. idk that just really hit me. anyway i was catching up with the last book in AVOS and remembered how much i loved violetshine’s earlier stuff and the thought just struck me that she’d be a cat who might not join a clan? and that’d be fun and different to rp? so yes

[endgameexecutor]

bAE. IN CELEBRATION OF VALENTINE'S DAY, I'M REQUESTING THAT YOU DO THE THING THAT BROUGHT US CLOSER TOGETHER. DO ALL THE ASKS IN THE POKEMON ASK MEME. O3O

favorite type: Normal type no fucking doubt.

least favorite type: Ghost types seem to appeal to me the least.

favorite dual type: You pair anything up with Normal and you’ve got a winner in my books, though I’ll give this one to Normal/Dragon just because it goes from a mundane typing to god-dammed Dragon.

least favorite dual type: Fairy/Psychic but only because the two values of pink just sorta blur together and it doesn’t look all to appealing to me (I still love Mr Mime though).

favorite trainer: Like favorite trainer class? I will admit I have a small crush on the redheaded Furisode Girl because her appearance reminds me of @crazygingerlady​

least favorite trainer: Imma take this spot to ask why Game Freak didn’t have female Triathletes in ORAS. Seriously, their design was fine and lovely and you screwed it up.

favorite gym leader: Lenora is a Normal-type gym leader I can proud of.

least favorite gym leader: It feels like more effort went into Olympia’s gym than her personality.

favorite elite four member: Aaron because I like Bug-types

least favorite elite four member: Malva

favorite trial (sun & moon): Is it bad I want to say I enjoyed Mina’s lack of a trial just because of how jarring it was?

least favorite trial (sun & moon): I feel like Sophocles’s original trial was just sort of average and I’m glad they changed it up for USUM.

favorite antagonist team: Team Plasma from the original Black and White. I haven’t played B2W2 yet so I don’t know how they hold up there.

least favorite antagonist team: I feel like had they fleshed out the “classist Nazi” aspect more, Team Flare would’ve been a truly horrifying successor to Ghetsis. 

favorite shiny pokemon: 

(Her name is Princess and I love her.)

Okay this is gonna definitely get super long so I’m just gonna put one of these down…

16. least favorite shiny pokemon

(For me Garchomp is the pinnacle in lazy shiny designs.)

17. 3 favorite pokemon

I can’t fully explain why, but I just love Dunsparce’s design so god-damned much. He is a perfect boy. 

Shuckle is one of the earliest instances of a lethal joke character in Pokemon, only beating out Wobbuffet on this list because I just love his strange design so much.

This sunny lizard basically replaced my starter in Gen 6 and I have no regrets.

18. 3 least favorite pokemon

I’m putting coffin boy here because he’s Ghost type, but also one I dread facing. Who though giving a mummy box a cursed ability was a good idea?

Fighting types are one of my top three but sadly Crabominable’s design just turns me me away. It’s not even “ugly-cute” like Snubull. It really is a shame because it’s a cool type combination.

Pachirisu is an unfortunate victim of Game Freak’s attempts to make lightning strike twice with the marketability of Pikachu. I really do love their design but they won’t get any cool evolution because they wouldn’t be cool and marketable forever. I’m sorry Pachirisu, you deserve better.

19. favorite pokemon game: Emerald fills me to the brim with so much nostalgia and I wouldn’t trade it for the world.

 20. least favorite pokemon game: No Pokemon game has been terrible to me, but Diamond and Pearl’s pokemon are sorta just “Eh” to me while X and Y’s story invokes the same emotion.

21. favorite legendary/mythical pokemon

A music-based normal type? Sign me the fuck up.

22. least favorite legendary/mythical pokemon

It’s unfortunate but he came in around a time when it felt like less effort was being put into Mythical Pokemons’ events. Sure he gets a whole movie but he’s just handed to us in the game.

23. favorite music track from a pokemon game

The Ultra Recon Squad is some of the best shit I’ve heard.

24. your favorite team of pokemon you’ve ever had 

I can’t really remember my older teams all to well so I’ll have to give it to my latest squad.

25. favorite design of a pokemon: I feel like this goes back around to questions 17 and 18

26. least favorite design of a pokemon: See question 25

27. overall favorite generation of pokemon: Just from Pokemon alone, Gen 5 hands down.

28. overall least favorite generation of pokemon: By the same criteria, gen 4 gets a shrug from me.

29. favorite normal type: 

Golly I wonder who it could be.

30. least favorite normal type:

Fuck you they’re all great.

31.favorite fire type: The Turtonator featured in question 24!

32. least favorite fire type: 

Oddly enough, Ninetails never struck me as something I’d be inclined to raise.

33. favorite fighting type:

I couldn’t pick between the Hitmons so I chose the baby they come from instead.

34. least favorite fighting type: Still Crabominable.

35. favorite water type: 

Do I need to explain why Qwilfish is so cool? The answer is no, he just radiates awesome. And also poison if his quills are leaking. Deadly, deadly poison.

36. least favorite water type:

I mean I understand why you aren’t, but I still wish you were Luvdisc’s evolution.

37. favorite flying type: 

HE IS DOING HIS BEST AND I LOVE HIM.

38. least favorite flying type:

Santabird sits here as a victim of wasted potential. He has access to a lot of moves through breeding and tutoring and honestly that would be a cool concept for a Pokemon. The problem is that he dosen’t have the stats to make use of them. Poor Santabird.

39. favorite grass type:

You are forever one of my favorite starters, even if the physical/special split screwed you over.

40. least favorite grass type

You kinda bore me, though.

41. favorite poison type:

Who’s a colorful, gooey girl? You are! Who eats trash with their rock teef? You do! Who’s the bane of my wife’s fairy/psychic types? You are!!!

42. least favorite poison type

You have really cool sprites but no reason to be poison type.

43. favorite electric type: Yup, still Helioisk.

44. least favorite electric type: Pachirisu for the tragic reasons mentioned above.

45. favorite ground type:

His stats are perfect compromise between Politoed and Poliwrath, he has some of my favorite moves, and an awesome design to boot. I love you wart-man.

46. least favorite ground type:

Flygon is cooler.

47. favorite rock type:

I MEAN JUST LOOK AT HIM

48. least favorite rock type:

Your stall tactics have given me so mush hell I think I deserve to be petty.

49. favorite ice type:

This boy was a Beauty Contest champion and I’m just proud of him. He did so amazing… Excuse me I need a moment.

50. least favorite ice type

I’ll be honest, I don’t have much reason to put you here other than your crap shiny. Also you should evolve with the new Ice Stone.

51. favorite bug type:

Remember when you could catch him down in ruins? That was really cool, especially since this guy has become a part of my Black and White team without me even noticing. It was a really cool even and Game Freak should do more.

52. least favorite bug type:

All bug types are perfect. Fuck you this space is staying blank.

53. favorite dragon type:

54. least favorite dragon type

Still the Garchomp line sadly. This isn’t even over the shiny now, they’re just one of the last dragon types I’d consider raising.

55. favorite ghost type

Okay Shedinja has Wonder Guard and we all know what that entails. So instead Imma blab about it’s other aspects. First and foremost, Shedinja is re-animated remains of Nincada’s old shell, technically making him the first zombie Pokemon. On top of that he has a cool design that combines cicada shell and guardian angel, which happens to be emphasized in Wonder Guard’s Japanese name: Mysterious Protection. And to top it all off, he’s the evolved form of a Pokemon that can evolve into two Pokemon at once! That’s fucking cool.

56. least favorite ghost type:

GET THE FUCK OUT OF THAT TOWER YOU ETHEREAL BASTARD.

57. favorite dark type

BOOF

58. least favorite dark type

HE’S STILL NOT OUT OF THE GOD DAMNED TOWER

59. favorite psychic:

I brought that baby Wynaut all the way to the ORAS Pokeleague and I’m so proud of him. My punching bag has punched back! ;3;

60. least favorite psychic type:

I’m sorry Oranguru, as a Normal type you’re beautiful. But as a Psychic type, well your design just doesn’t appeal to me. Please forgive me…

61. favorite steel type:

love the cronch

62. least favorite steel type

It’s a bit controversial, but I feel kinda apathetic about Lucario. There’s just something about it’s design and the way it’s marketed that makes me feel like it’s design was focus-tested to be the most marketable “cool” Pokemon in Gen 4. I mean hot-damn he’s great in battles, but I get the sense that originality might have been quashed in favor of sales.

63. favorite fairy type:

This tiny motherfucker is one of the deadliest dust-mites I’ve ever had the pleasure of raising. Under that adorable exterior lies a deadly secret; that they are a fucking Bug/Fairy sweeper, type you would’ve thought you’d see in Gen 6 comes wreak havoc on those who who dare oppose him. 

FEAR THE POLLEN BEE

64. least favorite fairy type

You’re only here because the cross of plague-doctor and flamenco dancer is just something that doesn’t appeal to me. Which is my only major nag because as we’ve gathered from the other entries, I’m quite vain. You do have a great shiny and an excellent supportive moveset, though.

65. favorite pokemon movie:

I had the Pokemon 2000 movie on VHS when I was a kid. I had no idea what was going on when I watched it though. Probably didn’t help that I only knew Gen 1 back then.

66. least favorite pokemon movie

I can’t say there’s any Pokemon movie I outright hate. Though I’ve watched like the older ones so maybe there’s something bad later down the line. I dunno.

67. favorite animated adaptation

Honestly I enjoy watching the Sun and Moon episodes with @crazygingerlady. This series actually sparked my interest in the anime again. (Give us more focus on Team Rocket though, thank you.)

68. least favorite animated adaptation

As a kid I watched a lot of the Hoenn stuff and I think I complained a lot. Thinking I could do both Ash’s and Team Rocket’s job way better. When I think back on it I realized two things: One. I was being really silly. Two. The Hoenn stuff kinda bores me.

69. favorite pokemon card

Yes.

70. least favorite pokemon card

DON’T MAKE CHOSE BETWEEN MY BABIES. ;M;

71. favorite pokemon tumblr blog(s): Look I just follow anyone with “Dunsparce” in the name.

72. favorite pokemon plushie

These precious babies I got from @crazygingerlady

73. favorite pokemon merchandise: The games. o3o

74. favorite alolan version of a first gen pokemon

The bearded cannon.

75. a pokemon that you feel is overrated:

It’s the same sad deal I was talking about earlier. I’m sorry Lucario, you’re a great fighter but I won’t go out of my way to raise you.

76. a pokemon that you feel is underrated

You know, I don’t see much love given to my walkin, talkin boombox.

77. favorite eeveelution

sploosh

78. least favorite eeveelution

The only reason Umbreon is here is because they’re the only one Syncronoise is useless on. That’s it. All the Eeveelutions are pretty great and it was hard to pick between them.

BONUS QUESTIONS (that Jayde and I came up with):

79. Favorite Pokestar opponent?

I’m not sure why I chose this question seeing as I haven’t played B2W2, but this dude is creepy as hell.

80. Favorite Mega Evolution?

I am so glad Beedrill got a Mega evolution, I ran with vanilla Beedrill all the way through Pokemon X and now my boy has a upgrade! I am so proud of him and his new badass form.

Now all we need is a Mega Butterfree!
