I've decided to start my streaming hiatus early because I need some time to work on my mental health. I expect to start streaming again in late April! Until then, I'll still be somewhat active online, so you'll see me around ❤️
His name is Jared, and he's 19
my apologies for not locking the fuck in hold on
My sleep schedule is so cooked
I made it to Lavender Town with my shiny Venusaur, and I really wanted to give him a nickname. I landed on Junichi because Junichi Masuda had such a big role in the making of these Pokemon games. So for the 30th anniversary of the series, it only felt right to honor him this way ❤️
Pokopia has taken over my life
So, if you're reading this and want to hire a thumbnail designer who actually cares about your project, who will craft an image by hand to highlight it... please consider me.
I could really use basking in someone's genuine passion for the YouTube video they're making - it's been so long.
Thanks.
my bad 😂
After my atrocious luck resetting for a shiny Mudkip last month, FireRed took pity on me and gave me a shiny Bulbasaur after only 447 encounters!
Thank you for the tip! I would not have known lol
Can I get a shiny starter from Professor Oak today? www.twitch.tv/synthwaker
Tl;dr I'm moving at the end of the month, streams will be on pause for at least a couple weeks starting on the 23rd
Now that I've had a little time to relax, I've been watching other people's reactions to the Pokemon Presents on Friday, and man it's so fun seeing everyone so excited! I just love Pokemon and the community around it
I had such a blast at Seattle Regionals! I'll have to tell y'all more about it the next time I stream, but my takeaway is that if you have the opportunity to go to a Pokemon regional tournament near you, take it!

Clearly I'm feeling the fatigue too
Shinx and Alolan Raichu were start to feel the fatigue after a packed weekend, so we opted to watch the VGC finals at Seattle Regionals from home

Shinx is admiring the view of Mt. Rainier while waiting for the train to go to the final day of Seattle Regionals. It reminds him of Mt. Coronet back in Sinnoh

A post on discord from sharlit. It reads "@everyone I’ve been trying to write this for the past few hours now, but it's been very, very difficult. It really feels like my life is falling apart right now. My roommate is breaking our lease and moving out, leaving my partner and I to scramble to find new housing on our own. Our timeline is very short, and I’m going to have to dedicate basically all of my time outside of work trying to find a new place to live. Of course, this means that streams are going to be very few and far between basically until our move is complete. To be honest, I may just have to go on a total hiatus for a while. And I just feel so devastated. I had so much that I was looking forward to in March that I just can’t do now. I am going to miss streaming and shiny hunting and seeing you all so much. I really hope that my partner and I will come out on the other side of this stronger and more secure, but to be honest, I’m feeling really scared right now. There are not a ton of places in our city that are affordable to 2 part-time retail workers, especially given the fact that we are both immigrants to Canada and do not have any family nearby. And i really really hate to do this part, but between the cost of moving itself, security deposits, first+last months rent, all of the new furniture we will need, plus the loss of work for both my partner and I when we already get so few hours at our jobs, we are going to be blowing through all of our savings, and most likely going in to some amount of debt. If you are able, and want to help my partner and I with our moving costs, I would be insanely appreciative of anything y'all can give through Ko-Fi. I’ll try to keep you all updated as much as I can through the process. I love you all so much, and I can’t wait until things have finally settled down and I can come back to doing the thing I love most."
tl;dr im being forced to move when i am not at all prepared. not gonna be able to stream for a while. any help could be lifesaving.
i hate everything about this 💔
A modified summary screen for Charmander that says "ASS nature. Met in PALLET TOWN at Lv 5."
A modified summary screen for Charmander that says "OLD nature. Met in PALLET TOWN at Lv 5."
A modified summary screen for Charmander that says "NASTY nature. Met in PALLET TOWN at Lv 5."
I've been resetting for shiny Charmander, and I've been getting some weird natures...
Yeah! I’m glad you liked them!
Thank you!
I was bored and decided to try my hand at turning some of these 30th anniversary logos shiny! A couple of these were also inspired by @partyarlie.com’s current shiny hunts
