Considering Scar/Vio haven't gotten any interesting Raids for awhile now that aren't reruns or holiday stuff... I'm not expecting a whole lot IRT Scar/Vio on Pokemon day. Not like there'd be much to begin with since the dlc for it is over.

That cameo with Wile E. Coyote in "Night Court" is the closest we'll ever get to "Coyote v. Acme".

5 out of 6 of my Silver Team is now at level 60. But I still have more than 10 levels to boost up Houndoom.

If I ever play the remakes, I for SURE want to go with a very similar team since I'm curious how much more well rounded they'd be. Granted, I'm double dipping with Fire, but hey, it's my favorite type and I rarely do that.

My next plan is to play Pokémon and see how much of the dex I can finish without doing any trading or breeding whatsoever.

I've been kicking around another Zeti OC idea for a while. I haven't had him for as long as Zachariah, but he is someone I've kept in my mind for quite a bit.
EVIL Zeti OC.png

Y'know how Cream once called Zazz a 'jerk'? If she came across this other Gemstonian (though unrelated to Zazz), she'd melt like the Wicked Witch. This guy is a MEANIE.

Most of the Zeti OCs I've experimented with tend to be nice, so I decided to make an outright nasty one, one that makes even Zazz seem downright cuddly in comparison. I'm hoping to write some stories about the Deadly Six in the future and explore Zeena's backstory, so that'll be a chance to really explore this guy's cruelty.

I actually had one brainstormed, but I can't draw...all I can say is that he becomes the "good guy" after being mistreated by the other Zeti and ends up joining Sonic and his friends.

All Zeti OCs are valid! The idea of a Zeti joining the main Sonic crew is a really fun one.

Honestly for what little fan content they have, the Deadly Six fan content that's out there is some of the coolest in the Sonic fandom...y'know, when they're not trying to turn Zeena into the Sonic equivalent of Lopunny and Gardevoir.

I've been on the Sonic subreddit recently (first mistake I made), and ever since the Crossworlds trailer the amount of "why does Sega keep bringing back the Deadly Six?" or "am I the only one sick of the Deadly Six being used?" posts is like this

It almost makes me want to like them out of spite, cause as understandable as that position is my god are Sonic fans annoying about them (and damn near everything else). I forgot how much I hate this fanbase

I've been to that sub myself LONG before Crossworlds was announced, and had a very similar experience. You'd think Zavok killed their grandma with how much the subreddit just fully despises the Six.

If anything the widespread hatred of the Six has made me grow MORE attached. I root for the underdog a lot so seeing these six silly freaks be reviled so intensely when I see such potential in them is only gonna breed a stronger love for them. ESPECIALLY since Zeena is my favorite character of all time and all.

This is heavier than what I usually post but I've been struggling a lot mentally and a massive part of that is because I'm finally going through grieving counselling, but I get so depressed that I can't even move. The reason I bring this up is because thursday has a pretty heavy assignment I need to do for it after the presents and I am in dire need of something therapeutic and am unable to think of anything I could do to calm myself after that, does anyone here have any suggestions on this? All I ask is nothing about the joys and importance of being with family

How about replaying an old comfort game? Something you know puts you in a positive headspace and makes you feel cozy. I can see how that might not be what you're going for if it's something you associate with your late loved ones, but if not it is worth giving it a try. Maybe you could spend some time with your partners or friends?

I can't imagine this being an easy thing to go through. I've never dealt with anything like this myself and am fairly busy nowadays so I don't know how much I can help, but I can try giving as much support as possible if needed. You know where you can find me.

Sometimes I write down my thoughts or type them even if I don't save them just to get some of that feeling out. Or I draw something to give myself a task to complete. I also tend to walk back and forth a lot when I'm deep in thought about a particular topic, whether it's positive or negative. If you want to cheer up a bit, I usually listen to music that'll get me in a more upbeat or hype mood, so that I get some of that energy out of me. Basically, do something to let out your current feelings, then pivot to something to lift you up a bit.

But I'm no professional therapist. So I won't act as if my way of doing things will automatically work for you, I'm at least gonna bring up suggestions, and hope they'll help, if even just a little.

I beat Red. Pretty fun boss at the end of the game. Though he only took down one of my guys with Poliwrath since I couldn't switch outta Fire Spin. He still left his Charizard with a dot of health. Heracross got a critical hit on Snorlax and OHKO that dude. And everyone else got hit with strong enough type counters that made him not too bad.

Eventually, I'll have to go do the remake version of the fight.

Aw I missed having Genwunner, took me back to the good old days of Generation 5.

I guess I'll have to fill that role now. Garbodor bad

I asked for you to give examples of evolutions you thought looked like Megas.

Mega Pokemon are very, 'extra' as one way to put it, like Mega Mawile getting a 2nd mouth horn, Aerodactyl getting its spikes, etc.


Poliwrath and Pawmot don't really do that, at all.
Ok. I think I thought you meant “Megas are just the original pokemon but more and normal evolutions turn it into something completely different.” So that’s fair. Sorry.

If you enjoy the outdoors, try taking a walk and taking the sights around you in. That could be pretty therapeutic if you enjoy it. Maybe try a new hobby like yoga or other exercises and put in some music. Getting lost in the moment and putting yourself more at ease.

Deadly Six discussion. Koopalings discussion. It’s like two sides of the same coin.

Although at least Sega didn’t include all six members in crosswords like how Nintendo put all seven koopalings in 8.

Idk. They have a modern model for him thanks to forces, they could have at least done Chaos-0 instead of Zazz.

Finding new hobbies could help. Things that get you outside and meeting new people could give your mind new things to focus on.

Or...maybe the developers just forgot.
I don’t think they wanted him or his family in to begin with. I don’t remember any other Koopas being in the game.

I think at that time they were more focused on him being in the 2D games before Bowsers Fury.

Actually there were Koopas, but they were for the races and/or trace-walking, the latter of which I absolutely despised.

Wait, are Hammer and Fire Bros Koopas too? They're turtles, right?

Yeah you’re right, I remember hating that minigame. Still, no other of Bowser’s kids. Maybe Bowser Jr didn’t want to get involved with anything matrimony-related after Sunshine.

Little homie just wants to play his game

I noticed that too. Hope he's doing alright. We folks may disagree with him on Pokemon, but dude's a good fellow from my perspective..

You and I are just doomed to disagree huh
I don't mind though, different opinions make the Lost World go round.

I think he had a couple other moments when he thought the social thread was supposed to be the Topics Samus PFP Guy Approves Of Thread.

Like I'm completely burned out on MCU post-Endgame but I'm not going to consider posts about it spam

I haven't noticed every instance of that since I was online pretty sporadically for a time.

Sleep issues + anxiety = Pink Yoshi misses a lot of stuff.

Though I don't like talking about users behind their back anywho. And I like everyone here, really.

Still would be nice to be able to race as Chaos.

Also sage doesn't look right white and blue. Red and Black match her dad's colors better.
