Pokepinion-tober: 6

Let's fuck shit up.

So far: Dragalge, Skuntank, Cramorant, Lechonk, and Delibird

6 Elgyem

Look at the little baby! It's so cute!

Honestly this is the essential alien Pokémon, no question. It keeps the simple classic green alien look to it but is still unique with the blinky light hands and head symbol.

I love the name too. Elgyem is a pun/word funsie on little green man.

L.G.M-El.GY.Em.

Cute while not feeling too punny and still original.

I also love the glowing green eyes. They're so BIG and INNOCENT and he looks like he wants to give you a hug but it's an alien.

7/10. My silly alien baby will always be precious.

Pokepinion-tober: 16-21

I'm back from the dead

So far we've done: Dragalge, Skuntank, Cramorant, Lechonk, Delibird, Eglyem, Dusclops, Axew, Bulbasaur, Raticate, and Hattrem, Dratini, Pincurchin, Clefairy, and Tympole

16 Crabrawler

Huh

I mean I think a punching crab is hilarious but I never think about Crabrawler that much. The colours are pretty nice I guess because blue and purple go together really nicely.

But the half closed eye and pompadour looking thing is weirding me out a little.

6/10. Odd, but kinda cute I guess

17 Whismur

I love.

Like the round pink body is so stupidly cute! And the floopy ears and nervous little mouth. The eyes!.

This is one of my favourite lines from Hoenn in general and whismur is just such a cute little baby!

8/10. My child

18 Grimer

Eh.

I like Grimer slightly more than Muk because it's a little bit cuter but it has literally nothing else going for it.

4/10. Ew

19 Sawsbuck

Sure, it's a pretty basic deer, but the seasonal horns are pretty neat. This is my go-to grass type in Unova, besides Snivy of course. My favourite of the forms is the winter one. but the spring one is also nice with the flowers.

It looks very majestic. King of the forest type vibe.

7/10. Very cool.

20 Meowstic

Honestly, it's kinda cute. I like the colouring of it and the blue they chose is very regal. I like the male a little more because of the blue being more prominent.

I also like the flopped over ears on this guy.

7/10. Psycat

21 Overqwil

I feels odd.

Like I agree that Qwilfish needed an evolution as much as the next guy, but I don't like Overqwil

The huge puffy lips really don't look nice to me. The colours are nice, but that's really the only nice thing I can say about it.

5/10. Eh

Pokepinion-tober: 1, 2, and 3

Yes I know that it's the third. shush.

Every day of this month I'm gonna randomly generate a Pokémon and give some thoughts on it.

1: Dragalge

I like it enough. The whole idea of a literal sea dragon is pretty neat, same as Kingdra. I like that despite it being aquatic it's not a water type. Also a not overly draconic dragon is good, unlike many I prefer the less draconic dragon types y'know? They feel more creative.

Colours are nice. The shiny is really cool too because it ads a splash of green to it which makes it pop quite a bit. Strong without being too overpowered.

And this funky little dude photosynthesizes. Read this dex entry from Shield.

Dragalge generates dragon energy by sticking the plume on its head out above the ocean’s surface and bathing it in sunlight.

How could it get any cooler?

7/10. Not my favourite dragon type or poison type, but a very solid design that makes me happy.

2: Skuntank

Be honest, when was the last time any of y'all thought about Skuntank?

I mean, it's a skunk. There isn't that much I can honestly say about it. It deviates enough from an average skunk to still be interesting but it's still just a skunk

A skunk that can make flamethrowers. I get that Pokémon is a fantasy game but, like, why? I know that you can light your farts on fire but why can skunk do that?

Why can it also learn explosion? Can farts explode?

*quick google search later*

Ok so apparently you can, but it's not easy.

5/10. It's just kind of a skunk.

3: Cramorant

Just look at this idiot and say that you hate him. I dare you. You can't.

Like sure it's really average design and stat wise, but it's so goofy. Loom at the wide eyed stare, the stupid wing position, how close the feet are.

Also the shiny form literally references a real story of a pigeon that got covered in curry. That's so silly.

And it's ability! Like sure the Arrokuda reference is fine and funny and all,

BUT

When he gets to low HP, this dumbass starts choking on a Pikachu

9/10. SO SILLY. I can't hate it. Every time I see a Cramorant I want to smile because the little lad it so funny to me

#1 spotify song is so boring what’s ur #100

LOOK AT IT

I love it so much.

I will never under why people insist the Paldean gym leaders need their other jobs “because the league doesn’t pay enough”. Maybe I’m misreading something, but so many gym leaders imply or outright say that the gym position came later than their other job and clearly don’t prioritize the gym itself. If anything, I would wager being a gym leader is the side hustle or a PR thing and not the other way around. Also if I were chasing the bag I prolly would not be doing abstract sculpting
