the Hearth @Felthry@awoo.space

I really appreciate the callback to Slateport that you can hear in Motostoke's music

infineon is a major manufacturer of semiconductor devices, and all the eevee evolutions have names that end in -eon

if you give eevee a silicon stone, it evolves to infineon

sometimes i feel like we're the only ones who actually like how it gets dark earlier in the winter

my yamper evolved and the name Loaf no longer fits them at all

Either net

Here's a question for the fediverse: What is your favorite glitch in a video game?

wow, galarian lineoon is a wolverine

You ever just accidentally put garlic powder in your applesauce instead of cinnamon

also yamper

galarian zigzagoon, while i'm not a huge fan of its rock-star aesthetic, is also super cute with its tongue hanging out and sleepy-looking eyes

wooloo is *too cute*.

My nickname scheme for this game seems to be "uncommon names, leaning towards pretentious-sounding"

my team is currently an electrike named Anaximander, a wooloo named Anatoly, an eevee named Evander, a zigzagoon named Lane, a raboot named Cedric, and a yamper named Loaf (look i had to make an exception for this one)

in the box I also have a rookadee named Fahrenheit, a bunnelby named Gottfried, a pidove named Francine, a stufful named Yolanda, a chewtle named Lawrence, a nickit named Zerda, and a rolycoly named Tracy, in addition to the obligatory pair of vulpix + growlithe both named Rosemary (we do this for every pokemon game we play these days. also a quilava named felthry (it's me!) if we can get one)

This trade request has been filled, thank you <3

Could someone who has Sword trade me a vulpix? We would like to have a vulpix, either gender, named Rosemary for reasons that are probably obvious to anyone who knows us. Willing to trade a growlithe for it, or any other early-game pokemon (not sure what's version-exclusive other than growlithe/vulpix but we have shield)

hey @monorail, you're doing pokemon swoosh too, care to add each other on switch?

So apparently (at least one of) the enemy team(s) of this game is the rabid fanbase of one of your rivals

certainly a change of pace

oh neat, they brought back single-use TMs, but as a separate item from the multi-use ones (a character even calls them "old-school" and "vintage")

how exactly does the screenwrap glitch in legend of zelda work anyway

if we ever actually get around to doing any sort of conlang, it's either going to have no grammatical gender, or it's going to have the PIE two-gender system with the two genders being animate and inanimate

this is a collection built up over probably a decade+ so i guess it makes sense that it'd be big
