That story mode was unhinged difficult. Don't think I got much further than that.

It was such a cool level. I remember that was the only story level I beat in first couple tries~

I looked it up when I saw it, it seems like it comes from a fable with a similar moral to "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie"

A camel sticks his nose under the edge of a tent for warmth, it's owner (or a stranger w/e) allows it to out of kindness. Then the camel slowly worms it's entire body in the tent and refuses to budge.

It's a slippery slope parable.

In a sane society Trump should be in prison.

I've never heard that phrase before that's an excellent phrase.

Hey OP, it's me, Wetstew. You doing alright?

It's so satisfying when you get good at knocking out other racers. I remember as a teenager I would set my top speed to high and whittle down half of the other racers on my way to the front of the pack.

It's easy to get in the top ten when you drop the racers count down fifteen places.

God City Trial was so much fun. Kinda wish Smash kept that mode that Smash DS had that was very similar to City Trial.

The top down racing mini-game was also slept on.

Super is so good. The sound design makes everything gel together into a smooth slurry.

But, like good.

Metroid Prime is a masterpiece. The artifact hunt is a bit padding-y, but you'll be backtracking to get the power-ups anyway.

The idea of state cryptids rule. I love that.

Folklore is such a deeply ingrained part of a location; and it's cool to recognize it. It even reflects and ~potentially~ honors the past of previous Native Legends.

It's a shame that if it ever catches on nation wide it's going to be nothing but Bigfoot and Loch Ness analogs, like six states have the mocking bird as their state bird.

My favorite is (IIRC) Charlotte on the phone with Jonathan, she offhandidly tells Angelica "I love you." and you hear Jonathan say "What?!" on the other line.

"Oh Jonathan, I was talking to Angelica, I don't tell my employees I love them (walking out of scene) ~atleast~ ~not~ ~after~ ~Anita~ ~Hill~~...~"

I don't 100% remember if it was Anita Hill, but she namedroped a sexual harassment case. On Rugrats.

(What happened to Hill wasn't funny, but the set-up and shock of the joke was well done)

It's a shame, seems like it would have been super easy to handwave, but they never do.

Voldemore's soul was uniquely shattered and was apparently freshly injured to make another horcrux after murdering Harry's family, the cruelty he showed in giving her multiple outs to abandon her son, most likely to kill her anyway.

Holy/white magic is such a cool element in a magic system, especially with how undercooked HP's is. "This wizard was particularly fucked and unknowingly was the perfect catalyst for white magic to spontaneously manifest to correct"

Like, there was food on the table, and she has wizards shitting themselves despite the castle having bathrooms.

I haven't said it today, so: fuck JKR for being a transphobic asshole.

I'm a monster, and I'm using a grasshole team.

Lead with Grotile, it's frail and hits hard with grass and flying attacks.

Tropius x4 resists grass and ground, ground's more common to check the part steels that plague this format.

Mawile counters Ferrothorn with Fire Fang, and I forgoed the Power-Up-Punch set for Iron Head and Play Rough. People tend to eat the first charge attack from Mawile since PUP seems to be the most common.

The only mon I struggle with is Tentacruel and G-Weezing. Mawile resists poison, but it's so frail and Tentacruel resists everything it has. Weezing has a fast fairy attack so a healthy Mawile can beat it with shields, but Overheat and Sludge Bomb gibs my entire team.

If it's a bad opening match up I sacrifice Grotile to safely let in Mawile to either finish off the open or lock in a bad match up for Tropius to farm energy.

 

Butterfinger BBs always reminds me of my mother.

She was a single mother; so on her days off she would pick me up from my grandmother's and we would go to a convenience store and get snacks and sodas. (and for some reason she would get a pack of swishers, no ideas why she would want snacks with a cigarillo, especially since she would slice them open)

We'd go back to my uncle's house she was renting a room from, hang out in her bedroom and watch The Simpsons, eat butterfingers, and play Mario World.

 

You activated my trap card! You fool!

 

I'm slowly building up the XL Candy for a shiny 96% Lucario to get my fighting DPS up.

I also got a 98% Palkia Origin that I want to get up as high as I can, but that's going to require a ton of XL Rare Candy.
