Ice Cream Sand Witch

Soul Keta was hard on my old file, but easier on my current. Living Keta, though, has always felt like trying to destroy a tree by biting it. (which still isn't as bad a time as I had against Marianette) It's almost always the second gym leader that gives me trouble. Misty, Brawly, Gardenia, Lenora, Florinia, and Keta.

The Oshawott following you around is a reference to the Cain/Oshawott scene in Reborn. It's just for that one time in the starter collection room that it does that.

Since I started living in the haunted house, the ghost has lost weight. I've been exercising it.

I'm probably in the minority of people who'd prefer Z to a B2W2-esque sequel, and that's kind of why. XY felt sort of empty for me. So did RS and DP, and Emerald and Platinum fixed that a lot. BW, unlike most regions, didn't really feel like there was something missing in terms of story/legendary lore/postgame, at least not to me. For XY, there are a few areas never visited, like the other power plant rooms and Couriway's train. It felt like they just stuffed Team Flare in towards the end, instead of spreading out the encounters. There were a few early, but after the 6th gym it felt bloated with how many boss battles there were in that one section of the game. It had the same "rough draft" feel as RS and DP.

Hi, welcome to Reborn. A wild ice cream sandwich appears!

Wispy Path has a place called Wispy Ruins, and in Wispy Ruins is a Ladder. You'll need Rock Climb and Surf to navigate Wispy Ruins, which you won't get until later (Surf after gym battle 5, Rock Climb after gym battle 7). In Amethyst Cave, there are rooms with gemstones (I think you'll need Surf for these too) and a room where a Team Xen grunt is looking for them. When you get the gemstones, a path opens up, there's a scene in the next room, then there's a graveyard. One of the tombstones, I believe the top left, leads to a passage down. You need the Ladder and a Pokemon that knows Dig to get down, and then you get the TM for Shadow Ball underneath the tombstone.

I don't remember a voice like that at Terra's world. Just after leaving the place with the fancy name. Meloetta is a cool idea, though.

Ice cream sandwiches.

Doesn't Noel have Asperger's according to Sigmund's records?

The most recent egg thief calls you a lady if you play as female. Apparently this accidentally happens with all genders, but Ame said he's only supposed to flirt with females. Also if you play as non-binary, it changes some of Cain's dialogue when Adrienn explains pronouns.

idk if it's final, but in the alpha that was shown a few weeks ago, you could choose any Gen 1-5 starter by interacting with its final evolution.

@gangs: I didn't join the gang until the game required it, and GG just didn't mention gangs at all. Also this is widely known, but winning or losing to Solaris at Pyrous Mountain changes some dialogue for an E15 scene.

Wow, I didn't even know the game could read what kind of tactics you used in a battle outside of the battle itself o . o

What do octopuses say as a greeting? "What's kraken?"

Are you from Tennessee? Because you're the only 10 I see.

What do pigs use to heal cuts? Oinkment!

TIL what a benefactor is (my new rep ranking, and didn't recognize the word so I looked it up).

Garlic mashed potatoes.

Are you sure you put the right time on the invite this time, TRHS? I don't see anyone here.

Granted, but you get a bunch of warnings afterwards and lose ace status. I wish I was an Oscar Mayer wiener.

Oscar Mayer.

Ditto doesn't get paid for what it does. Dusknoir named Cheeseburger.

I usually just go with it. If I don't feel like doing something, I don't feel like doing it. If it gets really bad, I ask myself "How will I ever get to enjoy the destination if I don't even prepare for the journey?" Granted I don't have actual responsibilities, so I'm probably not the best person to take advice from on this.

It taught me the names of a lot of different kinds of crystals, since all the areas are named after them. I learned I've been pronouncing amethyst wrong. I always thought it was "a-my-thist". I learned that Giga Drain isn't a TM anymore. Also, I learned that Quash is a TM. I learned than an epic raid doesn't necessarily have to conclude with a boss battle against the person in charge (I thought during the orphanage scene I'd have to battle Sigmund when I got to his office, but what actually happened was even better). I learned to take yes/no choices seriously, and not assume it's a rhetorical question that'll loop until I tell the game what it wants to hear. I should probably just assume that everything that happens later will be a result of something I did or didn't do earlier on. I learned that fangames can have ideas just as creative as the official games. The field effects are so detailed, and I've never seen any idea close to it. I learned that even the grunts, who don't even have names in the official games, can have a story to tell about who they are and why they do what they do. I learned about xe/xyr/xem pronouns. I knew about people that didn't identify as male and female, but most of the ones I know use "they", so I hadn't heard of these before.

Sombrero that tastes like nachos.
