I heavily agree with everything in this post and couldn't have said it better myself (I've been thinking about that last point as well with tera being the common denominator among every single quickban, suspect, and radar pokemon since the third wave of bans), except for the notion that tera...

While you can sometimes guess what the opponent is running, the fact that this one guess can be swing an outcome so heavily is extremely frustrating and curbs both the impact of sound teambuilding and solid long-term planning within a game. I think that this issue, while present in many...

I honestly couldn't have summed up my own feelings better. While yeah conflating tera with rng can be problematic, it does add so many variables, all of which a game's outcome can potentially hinge on, that it makes long-term planning really difficult and has a nasty tendency to distill a game...

The issue is that the game isn't really about 50/50 situations, and never has been, even since Gen 1. Pokemon at high levels is about creating a gameplan, finding your win condition, and working towards it, making relatively informed choices in order to position yourself in a place where you can...

My first thoughts on this metagame are that Terastilization is a pretty big problem that pushes a lot of things over the edge and introduces some really obnoxious guessing games around what checks a Pokemon, but I understand why the tiering leaders are choosing to pursue Pokemon before the...

You know what? I'm gonna vent a bit about one of my personal favorites. Why is Surskit a 1% encounter in RS/ORAS? It's Surskit. The little guy isn't gonna break the game open or anything, what with Masquerain's downright embarrassing statline that features a cool base 80 special attack as its...

Don't forget the Gen 4 Eeeveelutions in BW2. They're both locked to postgame iirc. It's really uncool. Icy Rock is almost always lategame, and Mossy Rock is also extremely late in XY. Glad that they switched those two to stone evos.

The combination of the image and "Primal Vibes" is hilarious to me, this card really is just a vibe check.

look stay tuned, tomorrow i will concoct some fan art proving that it gives great hugs

what do you have against cradily? the pokemon is literally designed to give you hugs.

Thanks for the C&C, you're doing a valuable service here.

That should be fixed by now.

Joke's on you, the lack of conjunctions in the second paragraph is a deliberate stylistic choice; I'm employing asyndeton to create a passage that reads faster and seems more exciting. I'll take the rest to heart though, thanks. Edit: I fixed everything I thought was worth fixing. Are you sure...

Garlic bread is a little bit overrated. Sure it's fine and all, but you feel awful after more than one slice, it messes you up real bad if you get heartburn easily, and it doesn't have the utility of non-garlic bread in making sandwiches or even just putting a topping like jam or butter on.
