FAQ:
Q: I want to [activity with Pokemon I am unsure about] / [Pokemon] is making advances I am unsure about
A: Just talk to them already
Disclaimer: There are straight and gay pokephilia threads. Direct your porn dumps there, not here.
Question of the day: WWYD if this guy stole your girl?
--- 55767057
>>55766811
(thx for thread)
Well, you do have Pokemon attacks too. I guess just the fact that you started as a human throws me off, but then, well, if anyone doesn't have room to talk there, it's me I suppose.
Stinking Bishop? Sounds, uh, like it would fit right in here perfectly. The question is, can I get it in Celadon. This city is great for things like mustard seed and horseradish, and okay for the tuna, but I don't get a cheese vibe from the city. Though perhaps a specialty shop here might have it... I'll make a few calls around. Or tell Oceana to research it for me, I know she wants more stuff to do.
Sourdough like last time? Got it.
Cooking is fun. If magic is like cooking, I think I'd have fun with magic, were it not for the "might kill me" part. Star says she thinks that what I'm making for you might count as magic if it's the lethality that makes the difference. I'm, uh, glad I don't have her nose.
>>55766820
Hmm. I wonder if perhaps one could hire a Pokemon for it? But it's hard to recommend that until it's more sure that it'd be worth it in the first place...
Huh. I could send some of the ingredients for the sandwiches I'm making for Beryl. That'll clear out every Pokemon in a 10 mile radius. I'm only partly exaggerating.
>>55766842
(lol)
>>55766860 (OP)
>WWYD if this guy stole your girl?
I'd be very sad. But don't think I have to worry about, St
IF I had a wife or something, she'd be with me in the fist place because she loved me, so I don't think I'd have to worry about that.
--- 55767136
>>55767057
Exactly. You filthy hypocrite. Speaking of filthy, here's a short documentary on how they make this filthy cheese: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3zoqblIoJCE [Embed]
I like cheesemaking. It's relaxing for some reason.
Always sourdough. Dunno why they call it that. It's not exactly sour.
I would roughly agree with her on that. The art of trial and error, and seeing how crazy things can get before they turn deadly, is quite fun!
I must go now, but I leave you with this

>>55767057
It'll probably clear me out too lol

--- 55767284

I mean
Uh
A breeder probably
I'm sure breeders have all sorts of breeds that just, y'know, exist for this purpose. Like a Purugly. Or a Liepard.
Yeah, but it'll tear apart the mice too
Now I go
>>55767247

>>55767136
Sorry for the delay on this reply, you are probably long gone now, I was watching the video you linked.
I think we actually have managed to find a mutual interest. Now to actually figure out how to get my hands on it without going to Galar. Also now that I know the most intense part of the flavor is in the rinds, I need to incorporate that some somehow.
Well, thankfully the sandwich isn't going to explode. Probably.
Not expanding that thumbnail.
>>55767181
Well, yeah, most of the time. But not always. Like, there are things that don't smell much but to taste strong, or the other way around, or things that smell differently than they taste...
Also, why do you say that? I thought I answered it pretty well, I mean, as well as anyone can answer a question like that.
>>55767237
Uh, well, I can't say that isn't the case. Also, the smell might linger, inside. It's the, uh, the type of thing you might do it you get desperate.
>>55767331
Oh wow, I never expect to see you. You still at the castle, or, did you go out to explore another region? I didn't see you the entire time I was there...
--- 55767472
>>55767284
aren't breed pokemon expensive? I don't got the money for that lol
seeya ghostie
>>55767400
Well I'm pretty desperate lol
--- 55767563
>>55767194
Oh, right.
You could’ve just made a cake for yourself. Actually, I don’t feel like the birthday person is supposed to be the one making their cake. I feel that should be someone else’s job.
>>55767201
Right. Yes.
You do that.
Goodnight, Beryl.
>>55767400
Thank you for the elaboration.
You really enjoy typing, I must say.
You just, answered by not playing. It’s a joke scenario that you gave a serious answer to. It looks really weird.
--- 55767948
Here's a Gourgeist eating an Eevee
--- 55768220
Goodnight.
>>55767472
Well, ask Beryl to visit you next time I give him one of those things I'm making that are structured like a sandwich, and that should do it. You may, uh, want to get some scented candles or something, for after the fact.
>>55767563
I do! I wish I wasn't so slow at it.
Oh. I'm not sure what my joke answer to it is? What's your joke answer to it?
>>55767948
Bad.
Also, fake. Ghosts can't eat normal types. They can only eat other ghosts. So the intent of that thing was probably just to scare the Eevee a lot. Still pretty mean. And still a pretty bad picture to take. But not as bad as you want people to think. Why the heck would you post something like this in the first place?
...Probably just to get a reaction from people like me. Well, there you go, that's all your getting, and I'm going to have Star go through when I wake up tomorrow and block things as needed so I don't feel inclined to respond to any response to this, because that seems counterproductive to what I want, which is seeing less of this.

Good morning everyone.
I don't know if it's because there was a lot to filter or if it's just a slow day, but it seems pretty slow...
As for me, I'm probably going to be taking on the gym tomorrow, so today we are mostly resting up. Oh, and, finding the ingredients for Beryl's sandwich.
>>55769385
>>55773487
Thanks for the bumps!
>>55773999
Can nobody be the new bully topic?
>>55776516
This... huh. Well, I suppose, my opinions on this could be pretty easily guessed. Though it is pretty clearly a parody, so its not, like, bad or anything, the animation is very good, but it's just not my sort of humor.

Good morning.
I lost interest in replying overnight. The conversation thread begins anew.

--- 55781003
>>55780307
Buzz buzz good morning! Though actually maybe I should say buzzzzzzzkt good morning?
Sounds good to me! Do you want to fight the gym with me tomorrow?
(Also, how do you want to do that RP wise? Battle rules? Just a scene? Saying it happened and keeping it in the background, maybe with one or two rolls to determine how things went generally?)
>>55780464
... What? I'm missing context.
--- 55781021

hiya phoxi, whatcha thinking about?
--- 55782096
>>55781003
Hm? Why would you say that?
Sure.
(uh)
(I could be okay with playing it out, but it would be a little finicky attempting to be involved when the rest of the events/participants are managed by you)
(If you think Taner would lead with Dart then that can keep things kind of simple)
(You just have to manage the opponents)
>>55781287
Good morning. Almost 1/4th of the way there.
--- 55782631
>>55782031
Thinking about past stuff, nothing really important for you.
--- 55782774
>>55782096
It's gonna happen, just you wait !
(sinnoh trip?)
>>55782631
I do that sometimes too, usually about all the places I been to. Oh I know, out of all the places you been which one was your favorite? I think I like Azalea town the most
--- 55782995
>>55782774
I sure will. I realize that I morally cannot complain about anything you make me do after this, considering the torturous process I am putting you through.
(right uh)
(wanna wake up?)
--- 55783198

It's not that bad, all I gotta do is type a number when I say good morning

Snowbelle still is the prettiest place. Nothing will equal seeing it in the sunset covered in snow in the winter.

I have this really intense desire to plow my Pokemon. And if you take a look at her I think you'll understand why. However I have two concerns
1: As she is a Ghost, is this necrophilia?
2: Is Pokephilia illegal in Kanto?
Here is my pic related Pokemon. Yes, this is entirely consensual. Yes, she's super-sized. No, you cannot have her.
--- 55784481
>>55784423
You should die
That's the answer
--- 55784507
>>55784481
I don't need responses from prudes who think it's morally wrong for a Human and a Pokemon to have a relationship, thanks
--- 55784593
>>55784507
No I'm saying you should die and be a Ghost
Can't be illegal if you're both Ghosts
--- 55784632
>>55784423
check your local laws and uh, spare the details if it is less than legal

Congratulations?
>>55781287
Puff puff good morning to you!
>>55781652
Hmmm?
>>55782096
Because that's more what it sounded like in the clip!
Okay, I'll wait at the Pokemon Center!
(It's a grass type gym, so he could very well lead with Dart, if Dart agrees to that strategy)
>>55782774
Azalea town! That's not too far from where we met the first time! I really liked the place too.
>>55783259
I've seen pictures, and can say you are right. It reminds me of the region I lived in for a long time, the snow can be so pretty. Does Snowbelle ever get ice fog? Adding a little ice fog to the mix makes things even prettier!
>Taner sees Reina posting
Hello!
>>55784423
Hi!
1.I don't think so, ghosts are dead, but, not, like, really actually dead? I wouldn't call it that, anyway.
2. I don't want to say too much as I'm not a lawyer, but I've never once heard of someone going to jail for just that-- other stuff plus that, yeah, don't record it or take pictures, but just that? I'm pretty sure you're fine. Though it still has a, uh, stigma, so you probably don't want to advertise that you are doing it far and wide or anything.

(hi)

Yeah you need a little thingy, but again, I'm sure you can get it without the league's approval or whatever.
Yeah sure, let's go with that.
I guess it might be easier to visualize for Pokemon, since some of us change entirely with each evolution. But so long as we keep our memories intact, we're still the same as before, person-wise. If Theseus still feels that his ship is still his ship even after all, then it's the ship of Theseus, simple as that.
Both? Like, just have the digital yous alongside the cybernetic yous? At the same time? Sounds like a recipe for an identity crisis.
That's interesting, though how affordable that'll be for the average person remains to be seen. Most likely, it'll only really benefit old decrepid billionaires who want to buy their way into immortality.
Don't worry Taner, it'll be tasteful, I promise.
Yeah, no kidding. I kinda noticed.

How's it going? Still enjoying Sinnoh?
Say, you have a nose, right? Do you ever get allergies?
--- 55787913
>>55786029
Probably you can, but I'm pretty sure you aren't supposed to. I think that's the type of thing that might get one arrested. But I'm not a lawyer.
That's true. And certainly, I don't think my body is what makes me, me. But, even still, if I were to evolve and my body change, it would have a very different impact if I looked behind me and saw my old body, still moving, look back at me before disintegrating. If the teleporters delete the original, that's happening, I just don't, like, see it. And Star says it doesn't matter anyway, if the copy is the same, she agrees with you entirely. And I think I do mostly? Like, I wouldn't consider the new me to be any LESS me than the other me...
But I think you are thinking closer to me than Star on the other thing, like, two me's at once... they'd be different, after not too long. But Star says that would still be more "Star" in the world than was before, and it's a net positive for any "Star" to have more "Star" in the world, even with some mild value divergence, and it makes it less likely that there will be a world with zero "Stars" or "Taners" in it...
Now that right there about the billionaires, I think that's a really good point. Star thinks it'll change things so much that, it'll trickle down in some ways-- much like how for a while only the rich had cars but now most people can get a car, even if not a new one... She also thinks that the world is going to change pretty significantly in our lifetimes. I'm just, uh, sitting along for the ride, rather than making any predictions myself, but it's fun to hear hers. Though she's become a bit more pessimistic recently, I think because one of the people she looked up to has.
Okay. Still don't know where I'd hang it or anything, though, I'm in a tent most of the time.
Yeah. It makes for fun conversations at least half of the time though, right?
(And a very good something to you!)

There's a Z form? Is that like a Z-move? Well if it makes them go crazy I can see why they would opt against doing it.
Oh what are you cooking for Beryl? Fish?
It's delicious I'm sure! I can't wait to try it! Normally I just eat berries and twigs so it'd be nice to have something more filling.
Well I hope nothing happens to delay your Journey, good luck out there!

I just call it the Z form because it's a Porygon Z, it doesn't have anything to do with Z moves and stuff.
I'm cooking a very special sandwich with black seed very strong mustard with some custom stuff mixed in, fresh horseradish, sourdough bread with chives, aged ortiz tuna and now some Stinking Bishop cheese with some extra spices to make it taste even stronger. It, uh. I'm not sure a regular person would call it food, by the time I'm done with it, but Beryl needs something very strong tasting, and typically I just go as spicy as possible but I wanted to do something different for this.
Now, the grilled stuff, with the right seasoning, that really hits the spot. What do you think, burgers or hot dogs? I'll do the corn as well, with the bacon wrapped and everything, and perhaps silver cream cheese filled mushrooms.
So far, so good, though I know I'm going to have to be delayed at some point, probably fairly soon.
>>55788642
Ah, I was just speaking of you. Do you want the sandwich tonight? Normally when I make food for you I can do it in advance, but uh, this thing, it needs to be taken by you the very moment I'm done with it.
Also, that's not a word.
>>55788725

Ah, that's good. This is the time of year for them, and you are at regions you aren't normally, but I guess perhaps Pokemon simply doing get allergies as often!
>>55789124
Well, Beryl is a boy, but the first one turned out well, and this one is going to have even more strong of a taste so, at the very least, that part of it should be enjoyable for him.
It sounds like a lot, but one burger, one corn cob, and then like three cream cheese mushrooms for everyone isn't that much in the end. And, well, if you have leftovers, all the better, then you can just keep them and eat more later!
Well, it's going to be somewhat dangerous probably, but I'll be glad once it's done. Sadly, it's another one of those things I can't speak of online as much.

Of course. Well, a lot of places look very nice in the winter-- eventually I'll be at Snowbelle again, when I go through Kalos on my trainer journey! Maybe there will even be ice fog. I wonder what keeps the place so cold so often?

Well, that works out! Hopefully it was a little more eventful than that. If they've never seen you before, though, they might not know you are looking at them weird, now they might just think that's the type of face a Tinkerton makes normally!

That's good to hear. Yes, lots of Pokemon coming out of hiding. The change of seasons is always an interesting time. Just the other day I took this one of a Surskit on the water.
>>55788939
You guessed correctly. My Lunatone and Solrock aren't as outwardly expressive as other Pokemon, but they're great partners to have, especially as a photographer. They float around, don't make any noise when I'm taking photos and they only feed off sunlight and moonlight. Low maintenance.
Not to say I don't take good care of them of course, I've known them both since I was a kid and they do enjoy attention. One being more active during the day and the other at night is a bit inconvenient at times I'll admit...

Order is an important part of food. Which is why I'd never be able to use that cooler again. This sandwich is being made with the idea that the taste needs to be as strong as possible, and that means it has a smell to match. If I put it in a cooler, that odor would permeate anything else I put in there, perhaps for days.
On the other hand, I think making it is good for my sinuses.
Also, it's going to be done in, like, 60 seconds, if you want to pick it up. I found the cheese. The cheese actually doesn't have as much of a smell as one would expect, but I did take a bite and it... is very strong.
A bite of the cheese, mind you. Not the sandwich. If I took a bite of that, I might be dead.
>>55790046
That's a really good one! It doesn't look like it noticed you, too. Kanto is a great place for taking pictures in the spring, and so is-- that looks like Hoenn?

"U-Turn sounds good to me, basically we'd go in, you'd take down as many as you could at the start, and then U-Turn into Inferno? You'll probably be faster than anything they throw at us, especially once you get going. Uh, guessing you won't really want me calling out move names or anything? That won't be suspicious, I don't do it for the others most of the time, too, though I may, like, yell out when I figure out something, feel free to ignore me, if you want. Also, uh. Probably, should be carrying your ball somewhere, for when U-Turn has you return to it? How does U-Turn work without it?"

That sounds neat. Did you enjoy it?
How are you doing?
>>55790134
Well, I'm kinda making it separate from any of my other food-making stuff, and outdoors. If I were to make this indoors, I'd be chased out of wherever I was making it. And, rightly so.
Yeah, but I can always just make more, I'd rather you keep the leftovers, knowing you'll be enjoying it is part of the fun of cooking it!
Same!
(Goodnight, I hope you wake up migraine free)
>>55790273
Wahhahahaha!
I wasn't exactly thinking of a drink, but actually, that might be able to make the taste stronger. The goal is to get Beryl to be able to taste some more flavors that aren't just "super hot spicy!" And garlic can have a pretty strong taste when prepared right.
Though I wonder if I could make something sweet taste strongly sweet enough that Beryl would be able to taste it? I'd need to know if he enjoys that first, though. Some sort of fudge, probably...
>>55790335
I, uh, was that kid you are talking about for a while. It actually took someone on here to point out that not all the birds I was looking at were Pokemon. Trainer school didn't cover animals at all! Lots of really good battle information, great survival classes, I'm glad I went and I understand they couldn't cover everything, but... I learned a lot in my first few months of being a trainer, that's for sure.
>>55790456
(lol)
>>55790524
Yes, hence why I know this thing that has been created should taste very, very strongly. Though I wonder if because you don't taste as much, you'll actually be able to taste all the stuff, or if the strongest thing here is just going to be overwhelming the rest of it.
The rinds have a strong taste, as mentioned in that video, so they are included. I didn't taste that part. The cheese itself was strong, but I could see myself eating it with ritz or something else to go with it, not on it's own though.
>>55790582

There's just something about a good cheese I just love. The dedication that goes into making it is like an artform really
UNFORTUNATELY I'm lactose intolerant as a ghost because I loved cheese so much when I was alive. The end result is horrible, horrible agony

To be fair a lot of "normal animals" have been out competed in their niches by pokemon. It's sort of hard to fight something that can melt you.

Or break 90% of your bones before you know what's happened.

Hmm. I dunno.
Well look, I'll give you the fact that, there's an argument for streaming consciousness not being carried over when you make a clone, that's true. But I think that's different.
Like, say about your sleeping example from earlier. What if, every night, we were killed off and replaced with a new clone upon waking up, with their memories taken exactly the moment we fell asleep. How could we tell?
Ahh, so Star's saying the more Star's, the better. So she wants to spread herself like a virus, interesting.
But seriously, I don't think Star would be happy to find herself in a crowd of Star's, all proclaiming to be the real Star, especially if there was only -one- Taner for them all.
Yeah, maybe. But then, that brings other problems, like overpopulation and so on.
Has what Taner? HAS WHAT
Hmmm, yeah that might be a problem. Maybe you could just keep it next to you, like a bedside book or something.
I guess. My head hurts now though.

I agree! I mean, I think that's the case with a lot of food. But I do love cheese.
Oh yeah, Star said something about you mentioning you were lactose intolerant when I was getting the cheese, but I was figuring that was a joke or something... but it really is the case. Um, well, if I had known... Well, aside from skipping the cheese, there isn't much I could have done anyway, I guess, and I don't think you'd have wanted me to skip the cheese on this. Though I don't want to think about...
Uh, maybe go to somewhere unpopulated, for, um...
Anyway, it's ready! There's some extra rinds on the side... Next time I'll make something that won't, uh, cause you pain.
Do you think you'd enjoy something really strongly sweet?
>>55790713
Well, I'm glad you are doing well.
Yeah, I wasn't going to mention the, uh, circumstances...
Why would you be dead?
True. Though even as fast as Pokemon breed, don't animals breed even faster? I though so, anyway. Still, maybe that's not enough. Now that I know what to look out for, I do feel like I see some from time to time.
Yeah, I have 4 badges now, and I'm planning to fight the grass gym tomorrow, I had a run of bad luck but everyone has rested and I think I'm good to go. At least the gym leader isn't going to be using a team of Wobbuffet.

Now admittedly, there are some creatures I can understand, like Octopus and Dolphins and stuff, but in general I think it's fairly obvious. Pokemon just... look different.

We need to ask Daniel next time he's here, maybe!
Well, we couldn't tell. And that's why Star used that example. You are both are right, I'm not sure why I have so much trouble, feeling that. Maybe it's the combo, of the mind being changed over AND the body being changed over at the same time. Like, if every time I slept, there was a moment where my old body and mind were destroyed for the new one, that might not be any different from them just transitioning over to the new ones in the end results, but it feels different, if that makes any sense?
Well, she says she wouldn't use the word "virus" but it did make her laugh. She points out that it's actually exactly what evolution has optimized for, no better way to spread your genes than replicating yourself... I don't know how I feel about that one. I almost want to let her take the keyboard, but for now I'll just keep relaying her messages: she says that if there were more than one Star, then unless they've been given time to value drift significant they wouldn't argue over who was the "real" Star because they would all be a "real Star." She adds that she wouldn't want more Stars than Taners, but if that happened, they'd battle and agree to let the strongest/smartest Star get the Taner because she'd be able to protect him best. I, uh. This is getting strange. I don't think this will happen.
Overpopulation isn't going to be a problem as quickly as people think. Star wants me to link to https://www.cato.org/policy-report/november/december-2022/valuable-people-debunking-myth-overpopulation#
It's short.
Oh. Apparently someone she looked up to has become very pessimistic about the alignment problem of AI, someone who she considered very smart and who worked in that field for most of his life. It's been kinda a downer for her.
That might work.

Sure, go nuts.
I guess, maybe. Moved over is different than copied over, so...
I wonder how Star would feel if she somehow lost to another Star. Would she begin to doubt her own identity? Could only the original Star win the Star battle? Or would a new, stronger Star, who is aware she isn't the original, shun the older and weaker Star, claiming superiority through cybernetic enhancements. What would a Taner-less Star do in this world? So many questions.
Yeah well, that's only one theory. There can be more ideas all you want, but if there's still only a few at the top, and an increasing population of floaters who are happy just gossiping and sharing cat videos instead of actually being productive, that won't really fix the problem.
Yeah? Well, people suck sometimes, it happens. Tell her to find someone new to look up to, that shouldn't be too hard.
Sold.
It's fine Taner. You just talk a lot and it's contagious. I can't just say "yeah" to everything you're saying otherwise I'll come across as a dick giving you the cold shoulder is all.
It's just, I'm not the best person to ask about like, AI and stuff. I only know what I know because of Zapman. And I don't even talk that much about it with him.

That's interesting! Not often you meet a Yanmega that can type. I once got a photo of a Yanmega mid-hunt. Do you still hunt?
>>55790202
Some who believe they both came from meteorites. I can believe they're from space, their ability to float freely and subsist purely off forms of light would make it plausible.
That said, they're oddly common in caves for a species that prefer sun and moonlight so it's hard to say.

Well a favor from a Yanmega could be used for a lot of things! I hope you use that power wisely

Moved over, copied... the I guess the part of it is, if for a moment there are two me, and then one me gets deleted, it feels like a loss, rather than if there was always only one me, but that me just transitions to be slightly different than before.
Star says that they'd likely all want to discuss among themselves how one could be more powerful/smart than the other if they were all the same. But if one has a major cybernetic, then it'd be obvious, and Star wouldn't be unhappy about it, as that cybernetic Star IS her. She also wouldn't shun the weaker Star, as that wouldn't accomplish anything when that is also her. She says that they others
Oh.
She says she thinks the others, if they don't find something productive to do, would go into the Box until they had Taners or to act as an extra Star if something happens to her. She also says that if they did that, the original would be the only one who couldn't be doing anything dangerous, ever, because her death would be worse than the others, not because she's more or less Star than them, but because
reasons.
Okay this is just getting silly, or rather, it's been silly for a while now and it's only getting more. If there was a way to make more Stars, then there would be a way for me too. If there was a way to make more Kaukets, would you do it?
True, but that isn't the only factor. The population might actually increase at a much slower rate if everyone didn't have a deadline on life. And even if not, there are a lot more resources to go around than people seem to think. That would be a, like, 500 or so year away problem. Unless there was a big population boom!
She says she's doing that, but the problem is that she doesn't think the person sucks. She's scared he might be right.
It'll probably be fudge, one can pack a lot of taste into fudge..
I don't know half of what Star's talking about, but thankfully it doesn't give me a headache. Anyway, feel free to just say "yeah" to things, I promise I don't mind!

I'd guess that is one of the most useful skills for a photographer! I know a few things, like staying downwind, but not much aside from the basics. Do you have a special pair of shoes or something that make less noise?
Yeah, I don't know what it is about it, but it does have a look to it. Unova has that too. Actually, all the regions kinda do, to a point, but in Hoenn it seems to have it's own, like, the landscape has a thing to it. I can't put words to it, clearly.
Aw, thank you! Yeah, I guess I'm kinda on "easy mode" with that, and the fact that Star is especially photogenic, and that she'll even pose and smile for pictures. It'd be a lot harder if I was trying to sneak up on her or something, that's for sure

I do hope it is something you can enjoy.
Okay, noted. I might try making that for Kauket anyway, so you could have a taste if you want.

>>55791926
Yeah.
Tell Star that while this all sounds neat and well thought out, I highly doubt she would be happy with that. Being either left in a box, or being forced to retire and never do anything dangerous ever again. No adventuring, no battles, no nothing. She'd be miserable, I think.
Not necessarily. What if that technology only worked on Pokemon for whatever reason?
Absolutely not. The only thing that makes me me is that I'm the only one who can be me. This might not mean much to you, but when you're born amongst hundreds of identical Mimikyu, being irreplaceable is kind of a big deal. Star was pretty unique at birth already, but me, I had to work for it. I had to forcibly pull myself from the lot, and that's not something I'm going to give up on anytime soon.
Well, sure, people could stop making babies, but then everyone would be old-but-not.
Then again, we could finally eat at restaurants in peace.
Tell her being pessimistic about the future won't change the outcome, and besides, we've been through cataclysmic events before and have managed to pull through, so...
You like to pack fudge, Taner? You're a fudge packer?
I'm not gonna do that. But I AM gonna ask you to talk to me about something else.

The thing about Ditto is they normally transform for defense and not deception so they fail at actually acting like the original. In the end it's still a Ditto and they don't know the intricacies of other Pokemon behavior, let alone a human's.
All that is to say, if the beady eyes or whatever other details they get wrong don't give them away, the fact that they're still acting like a Ditto should be enough.
>>55791987
Of course! And yes, quieter shoes can work but I'd also recommend a hat and gloves since that's convenient and usually works unless the Pokemon is particularly skittish. As for me I often use camouflage to blend into the environment, but ultimately it's down to knowing how Pokemon will react to you, not matter how much you try to hide there's always a chance you'll be seen and you'll need to be ready to act fast, either to get away to safety or get more shots.
Agreed! I've gotten pretty good at discerning regions just from backgrounds in photos. When it comes to Hoenn it's probably the water. Surface level I know but it's true, there's a lot of water in Hoenn.
Easy mode is great when you're starting out! Of course your own Pokemon aren't going to act like a wild pokemon so that'll only get you so far. I learned that and found the best way to learn about Pokemon behavior in person safely was safari zones. I'd pay the entry fee, pocket the safari balls and just take photos instead until my time was up.

Star thinks that it wouldn't be so bad if she's in stasis in the Box and can later find a way to transfer memories from the other hers to her "central self." Then it'd be just like she experienced them herself. Between the stuff Steele is working on and ghost abilities, she doesn't find that too far fetched.
Ah. I mean, that makes sense! I do now wonder: if someone found an option to make you alive again, but it required changing bodies like, a lot, would you do it?
That sounds strange. But Star thinks the future always seems strange from the perspective of those in the past, our current reality would have seemed very strange to people 50 years ago, and she thinks that's only going to accelerate, not slow down. I guess we'll see.
I'll tell her! Well, I don't really need to tell her, she's reading over my shoulder.
Should I... Know what that means?
Okay, something else it is! Uhhh. Well, thanks again for the book, me and Star have been reading it together. What's the favorite sweet flavor you've tried? How are you doing, in general?
(Thank you, a very late goodnight to you as well)

Hello! First question is: are you still awake?
Next would be, what do you do on a typical day at the lab?
--- 55804266
>>55803800
I wonder if there are some Ditto who are masters of deception out there... How would we know?
I get the gloves, a lot of trainers wear gloves for a lot of good reasons, not just that one but they also help with throwing and stuff sometimes. But I'm guessing the hat is to just keep the sun out of your eyes? I need to get a few hats, eventually. Though I guess a camouflage hat could help in stealth...
Most trainerless Pokemon react to me by running away, ignoring me, or just attacking for no discernable reason whatsoever. That last one happens a lot more often than one would expect...
I mean, it makes sense! And there is something about it, I won't say the water is more, uh, colorful there, or anything, maybe it's something about the way the sunlight hits it, but it does just seem... More vivid somehow.
That's true! I don't think I'll go beyond that. I mean, I could ask them to pose for a shot that makes it look like they are acting like trainerless Pokemon, but that seems like it would be pretty obvious to anyone who really knew what to look for. As for the Safari zone thing, that sounds like a good idea, and it seems like it worked for you pretty well! I do enjoy taking pictures, and that does sound kinda fun, but for the reasons I've spoken of before, it's probably best that I don't do that, just in case.

“Yes. To the gym.”

>>55804237
Got some sleep in between then and now, but yes.
If I’m not out on projects, my morning is usually spent sifting through the mail. Project updates, trainers with (usually) asinine requests for lab resources, the big man’s correspondence with other major labs and schedule. If I have time I’ll start note-taking on whatever’s supposed to be measured on the reservation. Break for lunch. Group phone call about project updates for everyone abroad that can make it. Finish up reservation Poke notes. Spend next couple of hours fiddling with pet projects.
--- 55805139
>>55804266
We can only hope they're using their powers for good.
Partially. The reason is to cover up as much of your skin as possible, helps make you less noticable and easier to overlook. Obviously not quite on the level as proper camoflauge or a hide, but it's good for more casual outings.
Though yes the hat does help with the sun, which is nice.
Vivid is just a good way to describe Hoenn in general honestly.
Much easier in video, but it's possible to tell from photos as well. I don't approve of it but some safari zones do allow you to use bait or even throw rocks or mud to assist in catching Pokemon, I'm sure there are plenty of safari-goers who are like you and intervened on some prey Pokemon's behalf.
>>55804281
I was about 20 meters or so from a group of Wooper on a riverbank, camera focused on them when I heard the loud buzzing of Yanmega wings. I kept completely still, though in hindsight that probably didn't matter considering Yanmega eyesight.
Anyway, I saw its shadow on the water and realized it must be going for the Wooper and trained my camera on them. Sure enough, as soon as I saw a flash of green I took some photos in burst mode and next thing I knew, one of the Woopers was gone. I only got a good look at the moment it happened later looking over my camera roll.
If there'd been a Quagsire there it might've been more gruesome. Wooper are small enough for Yanmega to just carry off without bothering with the whole decapitation thing I suppose.

Sounds pretty tedious without a project to work on.

"Hmm. Giving up the guaranteed hit for a chance at flinch, and the idea that perhaps Bug Buzz might lower its special defense... Which would mean we'd probably start with Bug Buzz and just keep at it until and unless we luck into that lowered special defense. I guess it depends if we want to rely on luck more, for a possible greater return, or be more reliable. Honestly, I'd probably keep things the way they are, if Bug Buzz lowers their special defense, we can just, keep using it. It's not as 'interesting' but, this is a battle, not a contest."
>And so, they go to the gym
>Star actually gets in Taner's backpack after he takes a bike out of it, and starts biking to the gym... The city is pretty large, but perhaps in surprisingly, it isn't very far away from the Pokémon Center

"I actually challenged the gym trainers before making an appointment yesterday, so we can go right up to the gym leader."
>>55804410
Well that's good to hear, about the sleep, and thanks for the reply! Hmm. That's, surprisingly close to what I imagined in my head. Is it fun? Anything really interesting that you are researching/researched that you are allowed to talk about? I guess that also brings up, how much of what you do is top secret?
--- 55808134
>>55805139
Indeed! Though I think someone like you would be able to spot something off like that a little quicker than most, right?
Oh. That makes sense. And it also means I'm probably not at all sneaky. Because a T-shirt save shorts doesn't sound like the gear you'd recommend. I'll keep that in mind if I ever need to be stealthy for some reason though!
Yeah! It's odd, but the sun really does seem to almost, like, shine different, in parts of the world. Like, a tropical sunset is different than an attic one, and stuff like that. For Hoenn, it just seems very colorful, the grass too.
I... Don't like the idea of throwing a rock or mud at a Pokemon. That just seems exceptionally rude. But, in cases were for some reason s Pokeball isn't an option... Hmm. I wonder if Pokemon in the Safari Zone act slightly differently than they would in the wild, knowing where they are?
Speaking of how Pokemon act in the wild, maybe I shouldn't be asking this or reading your conversation with Dart, but, I'm very curious... What did the Woopers, um, do, after that? I mean, long term. You may not know, but, if it sounds like you might... Assuming they are smarter than Rattatas, if I was in that group and one of my group just got snatched like that, aside from being absolutely miserable about it happening, I'd also be thinking alone the lines of "this place isn't safe, we need to move and not be seen until we get somewhere safer, maybe split up but at least hide." Do they... Do that? Go to different environments, change their lifestyle based on, stuff like that? If not, why, do you think?
--- 55809080
>>55808047
>Dart shall make Star translate more
“That’s fine. I don’t think any of those small advantages or disadvantages are going to matter much, because the effects of type matchups will end up outweighing everything. There aren’t many Pokémon weak to both Flying and Bug. Grass is, but a majority of those Pokémon possess a secondary typing that nullifies at least one of my own advantages. In each given case, chances are that we’ll merely resort to using whichever move is least resisted.”

>>55808134
If they're truly a master of deception then the only way to tell would be to catch them in a pokeball or trick them into responding to something a Pokemon says to prove they're actually a Ditto.
Don't worry, trainers in general aren't usually sneaky at all. If they figured it out trainers might catch rarer Pokemon before I can photograph them so I'm fine with that not happening.
Every region has their own unique characteristics, makes each one worth visiting.
Except Galar.
Neither do I. Well you could just throw the Safariball directly, just less likely to work or so I've heard. Pokemon in Safari Zones definitely act differently, rather than get attacked by trainer pokemon they're instead chased by trainers themselves. Means most of them try to avoid humans and run away when they get a chance. Still, they're usually tame enough not to attack humans, that would be pretty bad for business I imagine.
I figure everyone will read anything posted on a site like this so don't worry. The Woopers looked around in alarm before quickly diving into the water. They didn't show up the next day so I moved on and looked for other sources of water. Like you guessed, they'd regrouped much further away and wouldn't let me get as close as I was able to before, they were definitely more cautious and alert after that incident.
It depends on not just the Pokemon but the environment as well. Sometimes there's nothing certain Pokemon can do even if they're at risk of attacks from predator Pokemon. For example, predator Pokemon typically wait around where prey Pokemon scavenge for food and strike when they show up. It's not like they can just not eat. But that's life, the prey Pokemon have to take risks to survive and predator Pokemon have to eat to live themselves.
>>55809080

I guess. Personally I'd rather have only my memories and no one else's. It's already bad enough that I don't even remember what kind of life I've had.
Probably not. I've had this body for years, and it suits me just fine. Besides, I can already change my body a lot at will, so I don't feel like I'm missing much.
As for feeling alive, well, at the risk of sounding corny: That's why I have Sam.
I suppose that's true. We'll just have to see.
Alright. Hello Star.
Don't worry about it Taner.
Yeah, no problem. Hard to say, I like cotton candy but I also like caramel. But not both at the same time.

>There is applause, which brings attention to the fact that there is actually a not insignificant amount of people watching this right now. The place isn't packed full or anything, but it's certainly more than just a few

>So Taner whispers to Dart before he leaves

--- 55811245
>>55809300
I guess so! I heard there was a ditto employed by someone in Ryme City as a bodyguard that was able to disguise themselves well enough to not be spotted. But it makes me think that they'd probably want jobs where they don't need to talk much. Though that brings up why they'd even do it, in the first place.
Sneaky is not my specialty, that's for sure. But then, I don't really catch Pokemon in the way a lot of trainers do, too-- I'm not aiming to "catch 'em all" or anything. Though, I do think Pokemon tend to do better after being caught than before...
Everyone hates Galar! For some reason.
Yeah, I think Safariballs are weaker than Pokeballs. I wonder if they are there voluntarily? I'd guess that some humans also feed them and stuff, instead of throwing mud at them.
Okay. Still feel a bit bad for butting in. Specifically when, these type of things, I feel split in half between wanting to know more and, uh, wanting to know less than I do. Though I guess I'm going to see the worst of it anyway, when you reply to Tempest...
That makes sense. I'd guess for Pokemon who have a chance of fighting back, they might stick around, but in cases like that, I'd think that Pokemon would just, get out of there. With them traveling in groups, I wonder if they, like, decided who would go out to gather the food on a given day while the rest hide, or if there's a reason they wouldn't do that. I'd guess it's probably better to not be in a group, otherwise groups would form more often... But then, I've heard from more than one Pokemon at this point that they basically run life kinda on "automatic" without much deeper thoughts until something, uh, triggers a switch in the brain to that. Does that seem to match what you've seen? Sorry for all these, uh, strange questions. But I figure if anyone would know, it'd be someone like you...
--- 55811277
>>55810366
Hello.
(Hello)
Yeah I figured I'd get asked this at some point. Well it depends how you define brutal. I know plenty of trainers would consider any Pokemon dying as brutal, but most of the time that's just nature.
Anyway my answer would be one time I saw a pack of Pyroar hunting down prey. Normally they use fire attacks to burn them to death and bring back the catch to feed their pack. Smells horrible but the flames are so hot that I doubt they live very long.
But once I saw a Pyroar use hyper beam instead. Now that was a shocker, instead of basically flash frying the Tauros in an instant, they blasted a huge chunk off their body. I nearly fell over from the noise, hyper beam is like an earthquake if you're close enough. Anyway it worked because that Tauros went down almost instantly and the rest of the pack starting tearing chunks off of it then and there.
Never saw that happen again. I'm guessing the pack decided fire attacks were better in the end.
"Okay... yeah of course they can't."
>He sounds more like he's trying to convince himself than anything.
>His eyes meet hers, uncertainty in them as he tries to decide what to do.
>The tongue pressed against his cheek draws a shaky breath from the Zorua.
>He doesn't understand his feelings right now.
>There was no denying the fear and apprehension he felt at the prospect, but at the same time it seemed kind of... exhilarating?
>Was it because it was Tempest?
>Doro snapped out of it, locking eyes with the Misdreavus once again.
>He slowly nodded.
"...Okay. I'll do it."

Hello Phoxy! Or Phox? In any case... how are you?

Star thinks that it wouldn't be like having someone else's memories, because they'd be her memories. Just, more than one her. Hmm. I think I see what she's getting at. She's never watched Naurto, and probably you haven't yourself, but I'm thinking of something like, the shadow clones...
I wonder if there is a way we could find and restore your old memories?
Ah, yeah. To me, that doesn't sound corny at all! Though, now I'm wondering something... I'll have to ask, next time I see, uh, the one's who'd know.
That's about the sum of it!
She says hello back, of course.
Hmm... Do you think you'd like me to do like Beryl, and make something so sweet that a human couldn't eat it? It sounds like your sense of taste is still, uh, there, so probably just something that taste good normally is fine. Now I'm wondering about caramel flavored cotton candy.
I'm doing okay! The gym is scheduled for today, so there's that, unless something else happens! One say I will say about my life... it's never been boring.
>>55811277
>I know plenty of trainers would consider any Pokemon dying as brutal
You know, this is kinda nice for me to hear. Sometimes, on this website, it feels like that, uh, isn't the case as much as it should be, it's nice to have it confirmed that, um. I'm not the only one.
>but most of the time that's just nature.
Yeah...
In cases where there is no way anyone could have helped anyway, I do think it is good there are people getting pictures of nature as it actually is. I mean, I'm glad for the fun pictures of pretty parts of it, but, it's also good to have ones that show people how much of a lie that calm, prettiness is. Though knowing how much of a facade that is, does make it a little harder to enjoy the fun pictures of Pokemon, like, playing and smiling in nature sometimes, knowing that at any moment, that can... turn.
No need to reply to any of this, it just, sometimes helps to, type.

Maybe a Ditto that smart would want to live as a human?
Oh? That's good to hear, that "catch 'em all" attitude is part of why I decided against being a trainer myself. Not much interest in trying to catch Pokemon when I'd much rather leave them be.
If you ever visit you'll find out why. Hard to believe it's a real place sometimes.
If Safariballs were as effective as normal pokeballs I think Safari Zones would be empty before long from all the trainers catching the rare Pokemon that live there. Maybe not quite voluntary like Friendballs but they're definitely easier to break out of than standard Pokeballs.
I know what I see is tough for a lot of trainers, honestly I'd be more concerned about any trainers desensitized enough to not be bothered even a little bit by it, I'd be worried how exactly that happened. Ah, morbid curiosity.
Depends on their intelligence. Not all Pokemon travel in groups and those that do work in different ways. Groups are almost always better than being alone, but some Pokemon are either not smart enough or too territorial or aggressive to consider it.
Automatic huh? Well that's an interesting way to put it, but I have seen that on occasion. Plenty of Pokemon do seem to just follow the same routines day after day. I think it's less about the wild and more being alone. What reason would they have to learn to communicate or think beyond their regular routine if there's no one to interact with besides potential mates?
They might be strange but it's not often I get to talk about my work to trainers. They're usually more interested in stuff that'll help them win battles.
>>55811571
>Sometimes, on this website, it feels like that, uh, isn't the case as much as it should be

>>55811807
I suppose so. There are a lot of advantages to that. I guess getting an ID would be the hardest step, after that it'd be pretty smooth sailing, and a lot more freedom than being a trainer Pokemon, or in a lab or something.
I don't see the "catch 'em all" thing as much any more, I think it was something the League did in the early days when they wanted to study as much as they could. I'd also rather leave a Pokemon be if they don't have any interest in being a part of my team, and not just because I already have a lot and don't use the Box system, ha. It just feels to me like it makes everything a lot easier when the Pokemon on one's team are there because they want to be there.
I'm back and forth on if I ever want to go to Galar or want to avoid it for my entire trainer journey. I, uh. I wanted to explore most places in the world... But Galar makes me nervous. And the one day I spent there so far didn't, uh, make me feel any better about it.
That makes sense. I wonder if, like, that's a setting on the ball itself, or if the "how hard to get out" thing decides what type of ball it is? If that were the case, though, I'd have thought Friendballs to be cheaper than the regular ones.
Well, as mentioned, I'm glad to hear that. It somehow makes me feel, I don't know, more hopeful? Less strange? A combination of all that, to know that most trainers aren't, um, heartless to that stuff just because it's how nature set things up...
So, the Pokemon in groups tend to be less often predators-- that makes sense to me. And it sounds like they are less on "automatic" which would indicate you are right about being alone being biggest factor in that... Though I'm surprised they don't, like, socialize more. I mean, just like humans, a lot of Pokemon are social creatures... But perhaps not as much by default?
Now that doesn't surprise me as much, though it is sad. A lot of trainers seem to have a rather one track mind, especially ones that are just starting out.

Ah, hunters. Don't see them that often. I've heard hunting was more popular before the League was formed but that was definitely before my time.
One Pyroar is already pretty strong, let alone an entire pride. It's pretty safe to say they're indeed king of the jungle. Well, savanna actually, but you get the idea.
>He nods, too distracted to speak.
>The kiss gets a small smile out of him. Then she smirks and leans down.

>His heart beats faster as she leans even lower.
>The spectral blue tunnel seemed endless.
>She was going to swallow him down that maw of hers, all the way down...

--- 55812914
>>55812457
Yeah now that you mention it has fallen out of style. Yep, all the best trainers say something similar. Makes it all the more baffling when new trainers decide to ignore that and stuff their boxes full.
It's a learning experience. Being able to say you survived Galar has gotta mean something.
If there was something like that in pokeballs I think someone would've figured out how to turn every ball into a Masterball by now.
It's just a harsh reality most don't realize exists. And why would they? Their goal is to catch strong Pokemon and beat the league, not closely observe Pokemon as they live their lives.
Hmm, heartless. I suppose if they really don't feel bad at all. I definitely still do feel bad for Pokemon that get hunted, but I'm also impressed by the predator Pokemon, glad they get to live another day, feed themselves and possibly their pack or offspring. You gotta think about what happens after too, it's not like the prey dies for nothing.
Less, but not never. Pyroar for example live in prides. Predators in groups are almost always at the top of whatever food chain they're in.
Some are social, others not so much.
I'm sure they'll learn once they grow up enough to realize it. I'm still shocked the League lets trainers start so young.

Only each other if they decide to head off and form their own prides.
Ghosts? Well I've mentioned the shiny Chandelure that Sickle, my Lunatone, fended off so I could get away.
Other than that? Here or there. Ghosts are unusual, they can basically exists anywhere so they're hard to track. When I do find them it's hard to hide from them and it's always tough to guess whether they'll try to prank me, completely ignore me or attack.
"O-Oh-"

"Oh... oh gosh~"
>And then her lips close around his haunches, he can feel his legs pressed against her throat. It's overwhelming, it's frightening... but in a good way.
>As if that weren't enough, Tempest's lips close over his cock, now waist-deep in the voracious ghost's maw.

Did Gold do the whole "catch 'em all" thing himself? I feel like that idea fell out of favor pretty quickly. And, really, all the better that it did.
>>55812914
Is that picture of a special Solrock, or one in the middle of using some attack?
Yeah... I don't get why trainers would do that. It doesn't even, like, have any advantage to do, it doesn't help the Pokemon, and at this point, I don't think the League even gives out any sort of rewards for it.
Honestly, Galar is scary, with the way people talk about it, but it feels to me like Paldea is the scarier of the two regions. But I guess there is something about Galar...
True, it seems like it gets harder/more expensive to make the ball. I wouldn't be surprised if Safariballs are as cheap as can be, though, considering they give them out.
I suppose so. I wonder how much I'd know, if I didn't post here so often? Probably not nearly as much about that, I haven't really seen it much at all-- and if I had, I would have thought it was an exception to the norm, not the general rule with the peace I see being the exception.
The way you see it is right. It's just, for some reason, harder for me to think about the winner than the loser, when there was so much to lose... I don't think that's a good thing about me, at all. But it's one thing to say "I shouldn't think like this" and another to actually be able to just, change the way I feel. I just wish there were more animal prey, and that berries were even more sustaining and... just, that it -was- the exception, rather than the rule. Like how the League edutainment made it look... Or that Pokemon could have the advantages we did, without having to become a trainer Pokemon...
Again, you have a better way of looking at it than me. Maybe I'll get there, one day.
Hmm. That makes sense, there's few groups and almost no single Pokemon that could face a pack like that.
--- 55814044
>>55813265
A small part 2, because I type too much and don’t want to delete stuff.
I guess it makes sense that a lot of the ones I know are social, that's part of why I know them.
I’m also shocked about that. It, uh. It really isn’t safe. If I was a parent, I would never want to send my child out into the wilds at 10, or even 15 really. I don’t blame my parents for making me take the extra years of school before allowing me to go.
>>55813265
A TV show. I... have no idea if you'd enjoy it or not. But anyway, he makes shadow clones, and when one is destroyed, he gets the memories that clone had, and new clones he makes after that also have those, which means his memories, while not perfectly in sync, are never so far out that one of the clones becomes... not him?
Oh. Well, maybe, Beryl seems to think that bad people become ghosts more than good ones, but, I don't really know about that... Anyway, I hate to say this, but I'm pretty sure that I won't die of natural causes, myself. I don't, uh. I wonder how many trainers DO die of natural causes...
Yeah!
>Next time Taner sees the Moonlight Dew's, he's going to tell them that he doesn't plan to do it, but does wonder what would happen if a ghost were to use the amulet. Would it turn them into an alive Eevee? Would they no longer be a ghost at that point?
>Actually thinking about it, he may not ask that, if he decides it might be a bit insensitive by the time we get to that point
Caramel ice cream cake... yeah! That could be good. I'm pretty sure they do make those.
Oh, no, that wasn't the last gym, that would have been less embarrassing. That was just another trainer. One with a team of six Wobbuffet. It was bad. And then I lost to the trainer after that. It wasn't a great day.
Ah... yeah. Well, I'm guessing that's one of the nice things about being with Zapman, life probably never gets boring!

Oh yeah? Surprised you didn't try to catch it since it's shiny and all.
Yeah ghosts are naturally sneaky and tricky, if you manage to sneak up on one it probably let you do it on purpose just to scare you or worse when you get closer heh.
So those pokemon you got, do they ever shed pebbles or something rocky? Just wondering.

I know most trainers in my shoes probably would've tried. But that's not my MO, even if I do like shiny Pokemon quite a bit.
Yes, they're unpredictable. But that doesn't stop researchers from trying to figure whatever they can about them, so they send me to observe their behavior and take photos of unusual specimens.
Actually yes, when Ignis is drawing in sunlight, tiny bits of rock will flake off. Same goes for Sickle in the moonlight, though in their case it's more like a fine powder than flakes of rock.

(Also whoops, in such a rush to post I missed the reply, the part 2 was meant for >>55812914)
Well, in the show, it seems pretty useful! It sounds to me that was something like what Star was aiming for, even if she doesn't know that show herself... She says she can't confirm that without knowing what I'm talking about.
Well, I'm hoping that's not the case, but, yeah. The point being, dying of natural causes doesn't make one good any more than dying of not natural causes makes one evil. What even qualifies as a natural cause or not?
>Wait back up there a moment, it doesn't work on Cball then?
>The whole reason Taner/Star wanted them to take any extra time making it work on anyone else was for Freedom/Cball and Gnaw/Dream to have the option, were they unable to add that? I think they said they did, I'll go find it later, but we can change that if you like
>Though then I also need to retcon a scene where Taner told Cball and Freedom it'd work for them
Okay, no, wait, cookie dough ice cream cake now sounds like the best option for sure.
Yeah. They all had a very specific set of attacks that allowed them to counter anything, and were very durable, and then used Destiny Bond when about to go down. It sucked. I hope to never see that trainer again, no next time please.
Well, I'd guess. But the projects he's working on have to be pretty interesting, right? You know a lot more about them than I do!

Hello.
>>55813982
Oh, okay, cool I guess.
>>55814044
My thoughts? Sort of boring, kinda pretty, just okay, that's what Icirrus feels like to me. We got "Ice cream" though.
--- 55825567
>>55814020
That's about what Solrock looks like when they use flare blitz. They can also make themselves incredibly bright while they spin, which is a good defense mechanism.
Paldea does have some vicious Pokemon, or so I've heard. But then you'd be surprised how many Pokemon can be vicious if given the chance. Paradox Pokemon though... still not entirely sure what's up with them.
I think that League edutainment shaped a lot of trainer's perceptions of how Pokemon supposedly behave. It would be nice if there was no death and we could all live in harmony, but the world would have to be very different from how it is now. A lot of predator Pokemon would basically have to be extinct in the wild if you wanted to avoid any deaths, but at that point that defeats the purpose, doesn't it?
>>55815539
I think so. I don't even know the name of the trainer who stopped Flare, you'd think they'd be more of a household name considering Flare's whole "fire an ancient superweapon and kill everyone except for us" thing.

>>55818587
>>55823122
Thanks for the bumps!
>>55824776
Well, that's better than the last one then! And hey, ice cream makes any place better. What type did you get?
I don't ever hear anyone talking about Icirrus, good or bad, so that matches that it's probably a rather boring place, but then, some people would rather live in a place like that. I hear even though it's a city, it feels more like a town in some ways.
>>55825567
Rest of the reply next, but on the whole Flare thing... I wonder if that trainer saw what happened with Red and Gold and decided they didn't want that level of attention?
--- 55827147
>>55826798
Just a little, but I guess you're right that maybe I should expect it. No language barrier here after all!
>>55826929
That could be part of it. Though I don't think Red went out of his way to get attention, there was probably some League influence there. Heck, maybe that's what drove him to vanish to wherever he's at right now in the first place.
--- 55827217
>>55825567
Does it require a special type of camera or lens to capture that? I get the feeling from the picture that it's so bright it would be hard to capture with normal hardware.
It does seem like every region has it's fair share. And yeah, I've seen a lot of Pokemon get rather vicious in battle, but that's not exactly the same... Like, what do you call it when a Hatterene beats someone up out of nowhere? Or, like, the thing Malamar supposedly does? Vicious, yes, but more than that...
I think it did. It certainly did mine, and it isn't like school went out of its way to negate that perception, though I suppose I wouldn't notice as much, because it was all academic for me at that point, I didn't realize how smart the average Pokemon was.
No death is unreasonable-- at least, for the near future. A lot less would be nice, though. It isn't like I would get rid of all predator Pokemon, but... well, actually, if I had a magic wand that would just turn them all into Pokemon who don't need to eat others, without harming them, I'd probably do that. Is that bad? But if I had a wand like that, I'd much rather make it so, like, there are berries that provide everything that meat would normally, in abundance, or just a whole lot more animals, because while it is sad when an animal dies to a predator, it isn't... the same, as when a Pokemon does. If they were all shaped like humans as well as being as smart, I think more people would be trying to accomplish something, the meat berry plant could probably be accomplished with Bioengineering or something...
The saddest part is, humans are predators too, technically, but we no longer are forced to do all that, to kill like that. People might call the way we live less "natural" but, there's a lot more harmony with other life... I wish we could get that for Pokemon too, without forcing them to live in cities or as trainer Pokemon... It might make for less "epic" pictures, but might make for more pictures like this one...

Yup, that's what I said to Zapman. Maybe after that, the Leauge decided that it would be better to give trainers who accomplish things like that a choice of, like, how much publicity they get, and they more often choose to have less than more. Everyone says they want to be the next Red, but having that much attention... I think the people smart enough to get to that point probably realize that it isn't really good thing.

Yeah at that light level your typical camera isn't gonna cut it. The spinning is a lot more bright than than flare blitz so there's that too. Imagine what it's like for a Pokemon that lives in a cave trying to mess with one only to get flashbanged.
Malamar usually just use hypnosis to catch prey to eat, but a few bad people in history had a Malamar so they have a pretty bad reputation. It's like how Hypno are known as child kidnappers because of one incident when it's actually fairly unusual for one to do more than put you to sleep and feast on your dreams before leaving.
Hatterene though... Galar, man. Galar.
It's well meaning, I'm really not sure how a wish like that would play out though. Maybe everything would be better, maybe the prey Pokemon would go through a population boom to the point where even the extra resources are overwhelmed, I wouldn't know, I just take pictures.
>If they were all shaped like humans as well as being as smart, I think more people would be trying to accomplish something
Sounds like something N's followers would say. Not saying it's necessarily wrong, I thought N had some interesting points once he left Plasma.
We aren't forced to, but some still do. Hunting has definitely fallen out of fashion though, especially hunting Pokemon.
If Pokemon decide they want to live that way, I think they could band together and do it. I wonder what a society formed by Pokemon would be like, or why they never do it.

>Indeed, from what he saw of the city, Kanto and Johto seem to be very similar in a lot of ways
>Though most of the crowd is dressed normally
>Perhaps having Sweet Scent used on him before is also helping Dart resist, while it is different from Celly's, it's the same type of thing going on
>It's hard to tell if a Victreebel is frustrated, but from that gargling sound that gets louder after the next Areal Ace hits, it seems very plausible that this Victreebel is, in fact, very unhappy right now
>Perhaps it typically does better than this, or perhaps it's just salty that Dart managed to avoid everything so far
>In any case, it doesn't even wait for an order, spinning around in one very quick motion to face Dart and then throwing out one of it's vines in another Poison Jab

>>55828588
What type of gear does it take, to get a shot of something like that? Something pretty expensive, I'm guessing? Oh man... For a Pokemon so used to the dark, that type of attack has to be debilitating.
With Malamar, I'm more of talking about what happens after that... That's what I mean about Paldea. Dying to a Pokemon in Paldea seems, on average, far worse than dying to a Pokemon in Kanto or Johto. With exceptions, like the whole Victreebel line. I do feel sorry for Pokemon like Hypno. I also do know someone with a Malamar. That person seems... uh, very strange, but probably not evil. At least, not when they aren't being hypnotized by something. Ironically not Malamar.
I take it you don't have many photos from Galar? Or are you speaking from experience?
The thing, though, is that Pokemon don't all eat the same thing. Some eat rocks. Some eat pollution/trash. Some eat, like, sunlight. And many can still eat meat, if they absolutely have to... So even after a population boom, the resources needed would be spread around? Still, I'd prefer just adding extra resources that work instead of meat for predator Pokemon. And I think that's something that could realistically be done without a magic wand... Though there are plenty of metaphorical magic wands in the world, just not many people get access to them...
Team Plasma was awful, but the reason they gained so much popularity was because they stole some of their message from N and those parts resonated with people. Would have, with me, I'm glad I was in school during that time. And as for now... I think N and I would probably agree on, like, most things, and many of his current followers have done a lot of good.
Humans who hunt Pokemon... I feel like they'd hunt humans too, if it were legal, and that it shouldn't be allowed, Pokemon have enough to worry about without that being added too... But then, most of them are labeled poachers now, so we seem to be getting there...
--- 55829230
>>55828588
A very small part 2!
I think, the fact that humans don't have to deal with the whole predator/prey thing anymore is a very large part of the reason why we can join together and live in more harmony than Pokemon have been able to thus far. And the reason we've gotten things like cities and hospitals and science and Pokemon Centers and stuff, where Pokemon never made it that far. We managed to "break out" of the system. And the reason for that, probably, is Pokeballs.

Well no, I know that. What I mean is... I doubt I died surrounded by loved ones, or if anyone even came to my funeral, you know?

Damn, that sucks. Next time as in the next trainer you fight.

Well, you can speculate that... but we don't know. Perhaps part of
Anyway, there's no point in speculating. All I can say is, this time around, you DO have friends and loved ones.
>Ah, okay
>I don't think they took it back, I think it just made it so it took longer
>But okay, it works on Gnaw, Cottonball, and Daniel, of course, because he's human
Cotton candy ice cream cake sounds good, but honestly, I think cookie dough beats it.
I have a feeling I might see him at the Indigo League, he had four badges like me... Four Kanto badges anyway, I think he had the full set from Hoenn. But after that, things seem to have went well! I mean, losses and wins in the normal amount.
>Can't comment on the gym yet, though I'm pretty sure at this point there's no way Taner could have lost it lol
All the best ideas for what we have now started out as theoretical!
Uh, Star is smiling in a way that, uh, yeah, okay. Anyway.
I might be gone for a bit soon.

Well for that level of brightness you'd want a solar filter, preferably a white light one since Solrock's brightness can be compared to the sun at its absolute brightest. Would probably run around the same price as those vitamins they sell for Pokemon growth.
Oh, well Malamar definitely isn't the only Pokemon that digests prey alive. Palossand, Swalot, Whiscash... but yes, it's a pretty bad way to go.
Psychic trainers are odd. Nowhere near as odd as Fairy trainers though.
Not too many. I was there briefly around the time they joined the League. Didn't stay long, really don't feel like going back.
Maybe. I think you've put more thought into it than I have. Just, from what I've seen, it would be pretty hard for a lot of Pokemon to change their ways if things were suddenly changed with your magic wand solution.
They were, probably the most dangerous team because they had a message that seemed reasonable to the average person. I still wonder to this day how teams like Aqua, Magma and Flare managed to recruit so many members with such insane goals.
Well there are a lot of restrictions on it, hence most of them being seen as poachers. I don't get why they'd do it either. Guns aren't always effective against Pokemon, there's still news every now and then about hunters that get killed by the Pokemon they were hunting.
>>55829230

(I can explain that, you see, Taner is leaning over hence why he is so near the ground and in that odd pose, and the picture is taken in such a way as to make Star really close to the camera compared to Taner, and there we go, it makes sense I swear)
It doesn't matter now, that's the important point. What does matter? Which ice cream cake is best. Though, at this point, I personally think we are going down instead of up. I'd say, in order of what's currently been suggested, it'd go
1. Cookie Dough
2. Cotton Candy
3. Caramel
4. Bubblegum
Would you order that differently?
Yeah. But, I think I at lest have a better tactic if I do see him again. Also, I'll be watching the matches he's had with others, if I find out he's in the Indigo League this year.
Actually, much of what we have now started out fictional, like, in sci-fi stuff!
Uh
>>55832654
When he becomes Glaceon?
(Good Glaceon pic, saved)
--- 55833276
>>55830732
Oh. Well, that's pretty pricey, but not, like, entirely unreasonable levels of pricey. At least, not for that. The vitamins are pretty unreasonable. Anyone who knows enough can get those into a Pokemon's meals without having to buy them, though, they are just a, uh, shortcut, I guess.
Yeah, that stuff... Star thinks that things are already changing in the direction I want, just really slowly, and that's probably going to cause a lot less disruption than a quick change. If it were just death, I'd probably hesitate to make any drastic changes, but with things like that stuff... I'd be more encouraged to "wave" whatever magic wand I got my hands on instead of waiting for things to change slowly.
I don't think I qualify as either of those, though I do train both those types of Pokemon! I've only met one really serious psychic Pokemon trainer and she was... Scary. Are Fairy trainers scary?
Magma's message was the best of those other ones, their whole thing was that as population expands in the future, more resources will be needed, and to get those resources and support that future population, more land would be needed. So they decided instead of waiting for the problem that's probably still thousands of years off if not more to actually start happening, they'd just summon a super powerful Pokemon to take care of it by adding more land. Still stupid. But better than Aqua or Flare, both of which were just insane and I'm not sure how they got recruits. But yeah... I don't think Plasma would have pulled me in, but I'm glad I was in school at the time.
I'm not usually one for restrictions on things, but in this case, I hope it gets restricted to the point where it stops happening entirely. I have no idea why one would take pleasure in ending an innocent life, but there always seems to be more people like that… It’s awful. Even if they are doing it for the challenge, or the risk, there's plenty of other ways to get that without taking lives.

I guess it doesn't. I'd probably move cotton candy all the way down and move the rest up, because now that I think about it, moisture instantly ruins cotton candy, so I don't really see that working out.
You know, I just realized, why can't gym leaders participate in the league? Like, going around collecting badges. Is it because they've already done it and only previous champions can become gym leaders?

...what's under the disguise? Sorry, I have to ask.
>>55832654
Wait Taner's a Glaceon?
>>55833276
Taner are you a Glaceon?
Anyways, yeah I always had the feeling those were overpriced even if I never got into that sort of thing. Just another perk of only having Pokemon that live off sun and moonlight.
You can understand your Eevee? Well, she's right that things are changing all the time, I guess we'll see if it's in the way she expects. Just be careful, I feel like any wish you make could get misinterpreted somehow so you'd want to clarify as much as possible and think about all the things that'd happen once it's granted, assuming you ever do manage it.
Whenever I'm around psychic trainers I feel like they're reading my mind. I know that sounds funny when both my Pokemon are psychic types, but I'm definitely no psychic expert.
As for fairy trainers... they can be scary. Fairies are about as unpredictable as ghosts sometimes and the same goes for their trainers. It's also probably because you don't see very many of them, it's not the typical trainer's choice for typing to specialize in.
Oh was that it? Sounds about as dumb as that guy in Galar... Rose, right? Rushing to solve a problem in the most dramatic and destructive way possible even though said problem won't need fixing for centuries.
There's also the part where every Flare member had to pay 5 million just to join. I mean, I know the stereotype about Kalos but even then that's no small amount of money for the average Kalosian.
There's also the black market side of it. Team Rocket did it once when they cut off Slowpoke tails for profit, things like that.
>>55835217
Smart plan honestly.
>>55835280
Yes, lucky me! It's very interesting to be able to speak to so many Pokemon so easily.
So, you and your Falinks are travelling, right? See anything interesting in your travels so far?
--- 55837209
>>55836275
Perhaps, tasted good.
>>55836522
Travelling, yes. Spent most of my life in Snowbelle, and now, I'm exploring around, seen stuff, weird humans with weird eevee fetishes, annoying pokemon, almost died and had people enter my brain, that sort of stuff, the usual. Oh and a lot of fights.

(It's the best excuse I've got until they can take pictures from the mindscape)
(Which Star will indeed be abusing for that type of thing as soon as she can, but not just size-- could she turn into a Jolteon in her mindscape? Flareon? And change Taner around too? She has a room for all the fun)
Hmm. I guess I can agree with that. Moisture doesn't ruin the flavor, though, does it? So it'd probably still work if it was just flavored that way?
I actually think that might be the case. Though I know a lot of gym leaders are also type specialists, which makes me wonder if they weren't aiming to become a gym leader in the first place. Also, sometimes it seems like it's inherited?
Yeah, video calls-- that can be from the other side of the world! Tablet computers-- small enough to put in our pocket but with access to a vast database of knowledge! Wrist-watches that can make phone calls-- that was one of the most silly sci-fi things, but we have it!
Uh.
yes
--- 55837674
>>55836522
I'm not a Glaceon. I'm a human. I've posted pictures of myself!
Yeah, they are way overpriced. If you know what berries provide what vitamins, that's all one needs.
Wow, that is a big advantage. So you don't have to pay for food at all? That is, uh, one of the main places the money I earn goes to.
I always forget who I've told what. But yeah, I can understand her-- she can read and write, so there's that, but we also have a, uh, connection. Even though she can't evolve, she did get, like, one physic attack and some ability, which we could use to talk after a few months of trying really hard for that. She's really smart and I'm very lucky to have her! Actually, speaking of pictures, it was this picture here that led me to picking up her Pokeball in the first place... If I ever find whoever took it, I'd like to thank them, I feel like it really captures her.
Things are changing all the time. Star things that being born at any point in the past would generally mean worse quality of life than being born now, and that will keep up... I think, well, that all depends on us not destroying the world first.
Well, any wish that makes it so there are less unanswered cries for help is one that I wouldn't regret. But, if we were ever to find something that granted wishes-- well, there are a group of Pokemon who'd be after me if that happened, but, uh, anyway-- Star has it so our first wish would be "I wish for every wish I make to be granted in the way that most reflects my intentions while causing the least amount of consequences which I would consider to be negative, including this one." I think that's pretty good!
I felt like that with Sabrina, but I haven't been around others long enough for that to happen, I think I've battled a dozen others? And those were just quick fights. Though the one's in Sabrina's gym were a little scary.
I've heard that fairy-type trainers have strange eyes? Is that true?
Also, a part 2 coming up because of course. I’m sorry.
--- 55837696
>>55836522
Yeah, Rose-- looking it up, it does seem very similar actually, almost exactly the same mindset behind it. Trying to solve a problem he wouldn't even be around for. This seems even worse though, because who knows how much better ways we might have of energy production in the future!
Flare was just evil, from what I understand? They wanted to destroy the entire world and restart with a small selection of very rich people? They suck.
Perhaps most hunters are poachers, and not insane/evil people like Floch. He's someone you never met, I wish the same was true for me.

What do you take pictures of?

(Fair enough)
(With a bit of practice, sure)
I guess we could try.
Makes sense.
Inherited? Like, gym leadership being passed down from generation to generation?
Now all we need are food synthesizers that can just make food appear like a 3D printer.
Good.

"Oh. Right. Um, well, I'm heading to the Center now!"
>>55837872
And that's a concern for you, considering how much heroic stuff you do and what you may end up inventing in the future! What's you plan to keep a low profile?
>>55837907
(I figure, with the "hole" that was punched into their psychic connection, it might be a little easier for Star to bring Taner into her mindscape eventually)
Hmm. I wonder what I can get that's cotton candy flavored that I could use, that isn't cotton candy itself...
Yeah, it seems like some gyms are, um, family run, almost? Maybe that's more of a Kanto thing, it didn't seem that way so much in Johto.

Spent most of today milling around the mall.
Alola is weird, its like being back in the 90s. Malls, things to actually do, people aren't outwardly miserable or depressed. Nothing like Unova.

Snowbelle's a nice place. Pretty cold though, how was that as a fire-type?
Eevee fetishes? People entered your brain...? I don't know if I should even ask.
Like fighting off trainers that try to catch you or challenging them to make money? Both maybe?
>>55837674
Haha just messing with you.
None except my own. I do have one of those reptile UVB lamps for when cloudy weather doesn't clear up for a few days, works well enough for Ignis but Sickle is pretty particular about the moonlight, not sure if there's a way to synthesize that just yet but Lunatone seem to be able to go a little longer without moonlight compared to Solrock and sunlight.
That's pretty impressive. I know Ignis and Sickle can understand me, Solrock can read emotions as well so that helps.
They've never sent me words telepathically but it's not something I think much, we just sort of get each other without words if that makes sense.
That's a very nice picture and story to go with it, goes to show how important visuals can be at times!
I couldn't say. I'm not too big on history honestly.
Hah, that might work if you get more than one wish, but what if you only get one?
Well you'd be more likely to be able to tell me. I'm no trainer so I don't have a reason to seek out fairy-type trainers to battle. Still, the few I've met might've had odd eyes? It's hard to say because just about everything about them is odd, not just the eyes.
>>55837696
Floch? Haven't heard of him. He was a poacher then?

Hello there.
Well that's a mysterious answer, makes me even more curious.
>>55837907
I might believe that, I mean there's all those incidents where people who see what's underneath die in mysterious circumstances.
I take pictures of wild Pokemon mostly, I do work for researchers by going out in the wild to get pictures of whatever's piqued their interest in the moment.

but actually whats under the disguise? i have not seen myself
--- 55839865
>>55838867
There is cotton candy flavored ice cream. Seems like that'd work pretty perfectly.
That is a very hard question! Fire, ice, grass, psychic... I can say it'd be fire or ice, but choosing between those two is really hard. I like fire... aesthetically? It's pretty. And fire Pokemon are cool. But, I don't like hot places. So, probably ice.
But it was cooked with LASERS!
You... counted? 23 couldn't have been used for much, anyway...
>>55838904
That's one way to do it! You'll have a lot of help, anyway!
>>55838910
Hello again.
Huh, maybe I should visit a mall when I go to Alola?
Well, I recently got my fifth gym badge. And before that I had a very un-fun time losing to a trainer who just used Wobbuffet. Aside from that, I'm enjoying the sites in Kanto. Oh, and I made a ghost a sandwich that could destroy a regular human's taste buds.
>>55839435
>Ah okay then
>Sounds like a dance
>This grass type gym didn't have a chance, though the Pokemon here clearly weren't weak
>Dart gets some cheers himself when he comes back out of the ball
>And some people in the crowd asking "how'd he do that?"
>Friendballs don't seem to be that well known for some reason
>So that means Dart would accompany Taner out of the gym, as well
>It's a pretty fun walk, after a win like that
>Taner doesn't need to talk to the Friendball now, that's retconed
>Instead, he just nods
"Right!"
>And speeds away on his bike, hoping Star will tell him if Dart starts to lag behind or something
>And before long they are at the Pokemon Center
>Taner gives them Inferno's ball, Dream's ball, and...
>Does Dart go in the ball to be healed?
>If so, insert Pokemon Center healing chime here
>It really is pretty amazing, all the wounds stitch up, no bruises or any indications that Dart was in a battle are left, not even a scratch
>But his energy is also restored, it feels almost as if he wasn't in a battle at all today
--- 55839925
>>55838954
Ah, okay! I do have a Glaceon on my team. She dances!
One would think the same light would work for moonlight, just dimmer, or reflected off a mirror or something. But I guess there must be something special about it. Some Pokemon moves work like that too. Like Moonlight.
I was very surprised when she asked to learn how to read, back then it was really hard for us to talk and at first I thought I misunderstood. But she had already surprised me with how smart she was before that, so I was willing to take a chance... and I'm so glad I did.
I wonder if your companions could learn that, or would want to? But then, no limbs... can they levitate stuff, though? Though it sounds like you are able to communicate easily enough already! I do understand the "getting each other without words" thing. That's how Star and I were sometimes. Though I could often tell she wanted to "say" more on things.
Yeah... I'm very glad they put pictures next to the Pokeballs. It's strange how something so simple can change one's life.
I'm not really myself. Star has a really good memory and when she learned to read, she spent weeks on my Pokegear. So I generally trust her on such things.
Well, we'd just have to condense it, perhaps preface with the whole "I want the following wish to be granted in a way that best reflects my intentions and causes the least amount of negative consequences:" thing, and then saying what I wish for. That should still only count as one. Now, if there is a word limit on the wish, then it gets tricky! But Star's pretty smart, I'm sure we could figure it out working together.
As for Fairy type trainers, I've fought... maybe one? They aren't abundant in Kanto and Johto. That guy seemed no more strange than any other trainer. But we exchanged a grand total of three sentences.
Well, he might be, but no, he was hunting because he found it "fun." He laughed when a Pokemon was dying. That's the image in my head when I imagine Pokemon hunters...

sounds delightful
today, I hacked away at pokeball things once again
not much to report
also if i disappear ask Kauket why
(because I might drop off to bed soon lol)
--- 55840368
>>55839987
Yeah! ...Actually if anything, there are too many cotton candy ice creams to pick from. Apparently this is a more popular thing than I realized.
Grass is nice, and the grass gym smells good, but it isn't like I sleep on the grass. Even when I sleep outside, I have a sleeping bag.
Hmm. Keep talking about it like that and Zapman might try to make it himself! Anyway, it's just a proof of concept at this point, but what's a proof of concept now might become a lot more in a few years.
Eh?
EH?
What do you mean, dropping by?
(Thank you)
(Novel rarely gets Pixel art good on the first try but I've been having fun with it lol)
(It can also do styles, the last was genesis, this is GBA)
>>55840195
Well, that sounds fun! I recall whenever my parents would go to a mall when I was a kid, I'd look for the nearest game demo station, which was a thing back then-- just a place where one could play demos of the newest games, typically outside a game store.
Well, it was fresh, spicy horseradish mayo, Creole mustard, sourdough bread with chives, aged ortiz tun and some Stinking Bishop cheese with extra spices to make it taste even stronger. It wasn't food for humans. It smelled so strongly that my Pokemon companions went into their balls. But ghosts can't taste well, or at least, some ghosts, so it needed to be as strong as possible. I took that as a challenge.
(Thanks lol)
>>55840220
Cooked with LASERS! And assembled with them too! A completely laser-made food!
--- 55840436

>>55840436
Don't ask me why Zapman disappeared.
--- 55840690
>>55840436
Well I'd hope so. I'm only 19, but I still recall them. Actually, I wonder if they are still doing that now? I haven't been to a mall in a long time. I recall one time I found one that was overheating and the game that it was playing, an old N64 one, was glitching because of it. Or maybe that was a dream.
It was, but I think I managed it! I don't know. I wouldn't take a bite of it myself. I'd never be able to taste anything again.
(Goodnight!)
>>55840514
>(But can it do Atari 2600?)
(Hmm.)
Well, look up "cotton candy ice cream" and then you'll know a lot! Too much, in fact.
I, uh, don't do that. I sleep in a tent, most of the time. I do sit down in the grass sometimes, or lay down, but I don't typically fall asleep like that.
Maybe he'll be the one that makes it!
Wait, are you in two places at once right now?
