Ice Cream Sand Witch

It's amazing how there are customized responses in different areas . o . Definitely trying it out, it adds to the experience/atmosphere of the game.

It was revealed during V6 beta by testers that we'd be facing Amber. Although most people assumed we would be anyway, so that wasn't much of a spoiler. Right now though when 7/9 of the remaining leaders are unknown and the 2 that are known are implied to be high up in rank (meaning, most likely not next), I think it would be a huge spoiler and may lessen the challenge if we know in advance. My gym thoughts are: V8's will be Ground, and the gym after will be Grass. (it was mentioned there were flower fields right before GDC, and I think Aelita said that's where the Grass leader is?) GDC, which might be right after that, will probably have the Psychic leader given what we know about it. I also think we'll battle both Kreiss and Volta at some point, for friendly battles since we have their badges already.

He did. I thought Swablu was available since V6, though.

Happy birthday! Here's an ice cream sandwich

For the Pokemon already revealed, you can look at the Fold's List of Announced Things thread. But for evolutions, they want players to find out for themselves who evolves into what and how.

So this moreso deals with whenever we go to Agate City than it does E16, but I JUST REALIZED SOMETHING and not sure where else to post. Sleeping spell. Some people have suggested spores. Breloom can learn Spore. WHAT IF THE PULSE IN AGATE IS CLARICE/BRELOOMBOT?

I guess I really can't tell the difference between them. This isn't the first time I thought a spider was a crab or vice versa.

Everyone is calling it a spider. Am I the only one who thought it looked like a crab?

There's something I'm very curious about relating to Tristan and the Ayrith League.

There's four. Madelis, Geara, Neved, and Nastasia. I think it'd probably be one of the last two, if a Xen executive is involved. Madelis said she needed a vacation and we fought Geara not long ago. Neved hasn't been seen since Blacksteeple and Nastasia hasn't been seen since they left the old shadow factory. Both of those also attacked the ship.

Team Xen. It would be interesting if there was an agent onboard like with the ship, except we caught them in time this time.

I saw a Deerling (brown) + Audino mix.

Just interact with them. It sounds like a bug.

Center NE SW SE NW NE SW SE NW Center in that order.

I've never tried coffee, but I want to.

...oops, I forgot. Still doesn't spit flaming hairballs, though.

Spine x Pineapple Spineapple.

Hidden. Open door would be very easy for other nations to take advantage of.

I was picturing when it's known there's a kid, the doctor gives the tests. Basically it's paperwork, where they're given questions with check boxes and they fill in the one that matches them for each question. No one would be forced to abort whether they pass or fail. Also, if someone seeks help with addiction, that would make them one step closer to being eligible to be a parent. But if their addiction is to the point where it would get in the way of being a parent and they'd spend more time drinking (just an example, people can be addicted to literally anything) than with their kids, that's not a good environment. I don't think it would be "just as bad". It's true that it would be taking away rights from them, just like they don't believe same-sex couples should be allowed to marry. But the difference is that same-sex couples marrying harms no one, while homophobic people having kids harms those kids if they happen to be LGBT+. Again, I'm not talking about people who would still love them even if they disapprove of homosexuality. I'm talking about ones who would beat their kids, throw them out, or make them go through some kind of "conversion" ritual. Oh, speaking of conversion, I also just remembered about anti-vaxxers and their bleach enemas. They shouldn't be able to have kids either. Both of the above examples with addiction and homophobia fall under what you said about it being dangerous for kids to not get the love and attention they deserve. Parents with addiction wouldn't give them attention. Homophobic/transphobic parents wouldn't give them love if they didn't happen to turn out how they wanted. Anti-vaxxers would give them and possibly others preventable diseases. I'm not sure where you live or what parenting laws are like there, but here there are situations in which parents can be considered legally unfit to parent and have their children taken away from them. In what I'm describing, it's the same except it happens before the kid is born, not after the kid has been neglected or mistreated for years. There are problems with this that I didn't consider when I made that post, though. For the test I imagined, I'm sure some people who the tests would consider unfit would just lie about their answers, and no one would know until something bad ends up happening. From what I've heard, a lot of alcoholics think they don't have an addiction and that they can just quit any time, so as far as they're concerned they're telling the truth. And many homophobes would just think "No son/daughter of MINE is going to be gay" because they think it's a choice that they can prevent with religious parenting, so they'd lie and say yes to become a parent because they don't consider it as a possibility.
