I love to see you so passionate about a modern Pokemon game, it’s been a long time coming! They finally delivered on the premise of living with Pokemon in such a fresh and wonderful way
New mission unlocked, I now know my target
This is the way, I think approaching it at your own pace is integral to the experience, so much so that the game reminds you to do just that near the start. I’ve been enjoying improving the lives of my poke friends and restoring the first area and I’m still having a blast
I think it makes Pokémon’s message of environmentalism hit harder when you see the aftermath of it more keenly, and working to return Pokemon to the world is so satisfying. Plus it’s fun to explore at your leisure and Pokemon have real impactful out of combat abilities that affect the world.
Honestly this game oozes with polish in a way I wish the main series did more. Let Pokemon play and interact with the world! This game scratches that itch
I love how intuitive it is with the habitats, what you learn with holding one form of habitat can apply to others if you give it a bit of thought, that that feels so rewarding. Like you are incentivized to experiment and try new orientations of natural and constructed resources. I love it so much
I'm afraid I must resign from my content creation and day jobs. My sole purpose in life is to restore the habitats of Pokemon in Pokopia.

This is genuinely such an insane flex of craft skill, you did FANTASTIC here!!

Yessss same! I also enjoyed collecting the music CDs and stickers that would drop, but it was never quite the same as collecting trophies, something about that lil gacha machine, it made collecting coins mean something.
You did a fantastic job on it! I really miss the trophies in Smash, even though I understand that with the ballooning number of fighters and other IPs being represented, they kinda had to switch out of it, I still pine for the days of yore.
[fan art] With the 30th anniversary of Pokémon coming soon, I've been thinking about this old sculpture of Pikachu I made using Blender. ⚡
I just really like learning new things
Tama, wearing a Team Rocket Uniform and holding a rose, squats under an umbrella with a Pikachu pattern on it. Next to her is a 3D model of Meowth looking happy. In the bottom right corner is the Pokemon 30 logo with the text “WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE?” over it. In the bottom left corner is a name card with the text “Tama Hero” and “Meowth” on it.
Meowth & Team Rocket are the pinnacle of resilience and persevering through adversity. Even though they never achieve their goals and always go blasting off, they never give up. That’s why Meowth is my favorite Pokemon!
Use the new feature in Pokémon GO to tell me - What's your favorite? #Pokemon30
Helping others,
Making people laugh,
Using my voice to sing or act,
That feeling when you discover something new to obsess over that perfects suits your taste.
Those are some of the things that make me feel alive.
Hardly spoke to folks around him, didn’t have to much to say
When you are in such a headspace that you spend 30 minutes carefully blowdrying your hair only to realize as you try to brush it that you completely forgot to use hair conditioner & have to choose between A) Redo it with conditioner this time or B) deal with hair tangles for the foreseeable future.
I think this day I was reading Bofuri or “I Don't Want to Get Hurt, so I'll Max Out My Defense”
Though I’ve been mostly reserving it for reading on downtime at work since I can’t use devices there. I read the translated webnovel back in the day before we got the Light Novels, happy to read it again!
Just be kind to yourself and remember that there is also a silent majority of folks that don’t interact that you may have touched along the way. This has been your Artist Service Announcement. Thank you for reading.
And if at the end of the day it still worries you, It is very likely that somewhere someone out there truly appreciates what you’ve made, human brains just tend to focus on the moments of negativity more than the many more moments where what you’ve created has left the world a better or kinder place
A reminder to anyone that may unintentionally tie self esteem with how their creativity is received, that you are more than the things you make. It can be hard to swallow if folks decide to go a different direction or if your stuff goes unnoticed, but your impact on this world is still important.
I just rolled a Natural 20 for a total of 40 on my Herbalism Nature check to find a specific plant in this area, and then on the d100 to see if it was actually in the area I ROLLED A 1, OUT. OFF. ONE. HUNDRED. D&D in a nutshell y’all.
You don’t feel like you are on the same level as them when you can literally pluck their houses and move them at the whims of your bells. There was already a somewhat escalation in responsibility when you were mayor in New Leaf but now you basically control everything.
Rather than living in a town full of people you want to learn more about and get along with as a fellow villager, it feels more like you are playing god in a sandbox and the villagers are little dolls you get to play with and put in nice houses in a pretty decorated town to your liking.

Today has been a good day, I got a nice new hair cut, got to get some delicious Tonkotsu Ramen, got to help out a friend and I have a good book to look forward to reading. It’s the simple things sometimes, you know?
We played a decent amount of Violet together for raids and for exploring early on, it makes sense in that regard. Legends ZA doesn’t have as much to do as a group beyond doing battles or trading.
This is an entire mood
