Headcanon time.

This time on DC Comics.

The reason for many of Batman's Rogue Gallery is due to the fact a degree of Lazarus Pits has leaked into Gotham's water system also explaining why it's such a dangerous city, also applying to my headcanon that Joker has secret access to it explaining his insanity.

Also, the "Insanity plea" for villains like Joker and Zsasz and always sending them back to Arkham is a cover-up by governments and the justice system who is aware of Hell existing and fears if they executed them they could potentially come back as something worst like Emperor Joker.

Not sure if I like this headcanon, since it kinda undermine alot of what make Batman Rogue Gallery interesting, which is lots of them either suffering from mental or physical problems or just really ****ty life that they were unable to control or live with and thus becoming vilains was either the only option they had, or that they let their flaws & fear take their better judgement and embrace their worst quality by choice.

Wht i'm saying is, it's more interesting than them being vilain only because of the Lazarus Pits or whatever.

Also, think Emperor Joker was caused by basically a god accidentaly giving his power to Joker one day, so not sure at how Hell as to do with it.

I'm imagining a heaven timeline where in the next nintendo direct, or really at any time, they announce that Persona 3 (whichever version is the most complete and lets me play as a girl), Persona 4 Golden, Persona 5 Royal, the dancing spinoffs, and Persona 4 Arena Ultimax with all of the DLC (which includes the original P4A's story mode, fun fact) get ported to the switch. Man I want that so bad! Release the Persona Switch Floodgates!

Been seeing this idea thrown around a bit, but what if instead of vanilla Typhlosion, Decidueye, and Samurott in Legends Arceus, we get Sinnohan forms?

Its doubtful but it could have some potential.

Considering they literally smuggled the starters for another region, it would go against established lore if they didn’t evolve into something else. Plus we have solid evidence of regionals being in this already, so I would not be surprised if they did.

Did several more retries on the boss. I got the furthest I've gotten, and I've discovered I had a Max Revive in my bag, giving me two tries in one reset. However, RNG hates me, and decided that whenever Scaleon comes out, Shulong will spam Dragon Pulse and Tidal Dragoon, but when Sharpedo and Electaburst come out as death fodder, he'll spam Aqua Ring and get paralyzed six turns in a row while I land every single Fire Blast from Electaburst.

Your on the fourth gym?

No I'm on the part on Mt. Starburst where I'm fighting Shulong still.

Knowing Hell in DC though, it's arguable it could Joker could come back as from there as such a similar powerful being.

I don't know alot about DC Hell but...

Does other pro DC Comic here know if it's true or not? 'cuz it seem just...weird.

Guys picture this.

Walt Disney directing a horror movie.

If the donkey transformation scene in Pinocchio is anything to go by. I can only imagine how terrifying a horror movie directed by him would be...I tremble to even think about it...

I'm utterly more surprised that scene never scared me as a kid looking back at it now. Hands down my favorite Disney film, I really gotta get around to getting it on disc and giving it a re-watch for nostalgia sake.

Oh, no fairy type? What’s your team currently?

technically the name is Konoe...but it's still Japanese Iron Man

and Ichinose better end up being the villain

No fairy type, but RNG finally lined up and Scaleon defeated him. That took forever.

Current team, Galvantula is only there because I forgot to switch him out, but he pulled through and took out Shulong. Might keep him now.

Well, looks like Epic Games owns Fall Guys now.

They bought out the creators.

Also it be a wasted opportunity not to get new starter forms like this:

I know Typhlosion sticks out from the other two but I don't think the solution is to turn it into someone's Pokesona.

Typolsion's japanese name is literally a reference to shoguns, the masters of samurais. That's not a pokesona, that's literally what its inspiration was.

Actually it's based on a Japanese badger, which are shapeshifters known as mujina in Japanese folklore, it fits the Japanese aesthetic but it's Japanese name is Bakuphoon, as in Bakuhatsu, explosion, and typhoon

just reached the final boss

I’m all for doing reboots of these characters to allow new people to get in on “day 1” of a story and everything. But... man, you can tell DC is floundering right now.

I would suggest keeping one ice type on your team. rather than both. This is definitely a game you need a lot of coverage in, so I'd say see what upcoming pokemon you like and balance your team out around that. Sharpedo is also pretty cool, but I dropped it from my team because it just falls flat stat wise the farther in you get. Since you have a water starter I would maybe replace that with something down the line.

From what I read earlier its name had origins to shogun in another languages. Regardless, the other two starters have ties to japanese history, I'd be very surprised if we didn't get a Typolsion form with ties to the world as it is in Legends.

The only exhibit for the museum in New Horizons I need to fill out is the art gallery. I must admit, I’m extremely proud of myself!

it'd be easier if they constantly did what Marvel would usually do and...simply relaunch issues to fit a new era of Marvel (Dark Age, Heroic Age, Shattered Heroes, All New All Different, Legacy, Fresh Start, so on so forth). DC flat out makes whole multiversal changes and new main universes to the point to where now Earth 1 isn't the main universe anymore

 

[Z25]

The victory road in this game is such a maze. I think I'm almost out of it though.

 

[Aetheri]

Let's not forget that Typhlosion is also the Volcano pokemon. Hokkaido (the region of Japan Sinnoh is based off of) has several volcanoes.

Yeah, I started to notice Sharpedo was suffering a decline. Fast and strong but frail ain't cutting it much by this point, but I'm keeping him on for now. I also was raising a Chigami until Galvantula got added, but I think if I had to keep one Ice Type, I'd keep Hamborger because she's bulkier.

I'm using Chigami's evolution. Its great a great type combo and ability, and a really strong movepool. You get it at level 37 when it learns paper cut.

IF you use the trade Chigami, it at least gets double exp. Also did you pick the lucky egg up? It's in the 4th gym city
