If you've developed an interest in collecting ribbons before Bank shuts down, you're not alone: and this week in honour of our close friend from the Pokemon ribbon community, I'll be helping out with Rising Star Week, where we will be collecting ribbons and raising money for charity in his memory.

I've seen a lot of people that assume the protagonist of PLA is meant to be Dawn/Lucas from DPPt/BDSP and who vehemently disagree with the following theory because they think its too depressing but i'm ready to die on this hill: your character never made it home. They are Lucas/Dawn's ancestor.

"Hmm, Cyllene kinda looks like Cyrus, I guess she might be his great grandma" "Kamado's a dead ringer for Rowan, he's definitely his ancestor" "Arezu reminds me of Mars, they gotta be related too" "Our player character who looks like Dawn? Yeah, obviously that's gotta be Dawn dude" Like come on.

I also like the implication that Arceus was doing some real efficient 4D problem solving by sending back a single person to not only fix the Volo problem, but also set up the circumstances for the birth of someone who would take care of Team Galactic in the present day, too.

I'm not bothered by the fact I could have made more money if I sold them today, it's moreso that I wish I still had the cards and re-buying them isn't worth it at the current price. Honestly I have no idea what I was thinking or why I even sold them, it's not like they were taking up space.

Got bored and started wondering what other abilities could have the "boosts encounter rate of [x] types" effect. Not sure how I feel about Normalize since only one line has it, but Earth Eater feels fitting even if only Orthworm can use it right now.

I can't think of a good Dragon one either that isn't just Regidrago/Dragon Energy, and Dragonize is a mega only so that wouldn't work either (so is Aerilate right now which is why I also put Gale Wings), but that also kind of fits with Dragon types being typically rare or difficult to encounter

>at casual pkmn night at local card store >they have rivals battle decks in stock so me and another guy are getting some >another guy walks up >"Yo they have Pokemon in stock?" >yeah, it's just battle decks tho >"Do they have any packs in them? Anything worthwhile?"

I chatted with them a bit more cause staff had to go check in the back for a Steven deck and it seems like he was a regular collector who just doesn't play the tcg but it sucks that the hobby is in such a place that my first thought was "Is this guy just looking for something to flip on fb market"

Apparently this is also my 100th video (I think it also counts shorts though), and for this one i'm gonna be invoking the rarely used "might post about things other than Pokemon" clause in my channel description.

Screw it, I put my usual 3am productive energy to good use and learned how to set up an automated gmail filter that will scan any incoming email for the phrase AI/Artificial Intelligence, and then send a pre-written automated response telling them i'm not interested in their slop.

I've been playing Pokopia on and off since launch, and both times I hit a big progress milestone (rolling credits/finishing the dex) I thought i'd finally put the game down, but instead it just made me super motivated to keep playing and work on some big projects. Anyway, here's Rocky Ridges so far:

When I unlocked Magnemite + the ability to replace blocks easily, I had the idea to carve out some of the ash using Rollout and then pave over it with grass to create natural-looking terrain, and that then became the base for making a little town

Also I didn't demolish the museum, I made an entirely new copy of it: the original is still down there directly beneath it (just slightly worse for wear). There's also an elevator shaft connecting them inside the building, which is sort of inspired by something from the third Professor Layton game.

This booster box was so bad I actually feel like I got scammed. I don't just mean I had bad pull luck, the amount of duplicate packs (not just individual cards, whole PACKS) I opened and the individual card quality is genuinely unacceptable for the pricetag of a modern collectible tcg

Also learned from another player that the obscure dr who tcg I collected as a kid in ~2008 suddenly has a new expansion so I guess I'm just spending all my money on cardboard this month

Will this response be read or internalised by any of these mass AI mailers? Probably not, but it was fun to set up and it will give me a sense of satisfaction knowing I have a little virtual robot of my own that can let AI companies know on no uncertain terms that I'm not interested.

I even put a "no AI" clause on my description earlier this month cause I was getting sick of it but I don't think it makes a difference. A bot is still gonna scrape it just so a company with a name like Swongl.AI can beg me to make a dedicated video promoting their "AI-powered" scam app slop

When I first got to play the Pokopia demo at EUIC I spent like 70% of my session time just spinning in circles because the first time I did it I got the random Spinda face easter egg and I couldn't figure out why it happened the first time and then never showed up again

I've had a few people ask for the logos I used in one of these questions so here they are:

If any of you answered that survey I put out a few months ago and were wondering what it was for, well here's the answer! (And a huge thank you to @chazingdra.bsky.social @sirtoastytoes.bsky.social and @themissl.bsky.social for joining me for this!) www.youtube.com/watch?v=SR25...

And the last one I had to custom-make an english representation of because the original one was only ever released in Japan, but i wanted to keep the same shape/design in case anyone happened to know the game and recognise it from those elements.

Currently about to miss my self-appointed bedtime in Sleep because if I stay up longer I can get a few more berries and hit Master 20 in Expert Mode for the first time, and i'm starting to question if maybe i've lost sight of this game's true purpose.

Kinda don't want to spoil it for the inevitable video it'll be part of but today while starting EV training for another shiny I caught today, I hit a new personal record for shortest 8192 shiny encounter (which is crazy because my last one was 24)

I drew this jokingly last week after seeing the episode synopsis was "Navi & Ogerpon" - Kieran hasn't been formally introduced in Horizons yet aside from a cameo in the BB Academy but I just saw the Next Time preview and there's a Hydrapple in it, so this might genuinely be the episode's plot

Ok turns out this new Dr Who set has 2 uber-rare chase cards in it and this is what they're currently selling for. As cool as it is to see a new expansion for the 2006 tcg I loved as a kid, it mega sucks that I can't say I have a complete set anymore.
