I want to live in the alternate timeline where :ultpokemontrainer: has Blastoise instead of :ultsquirtle: and Venusaur instead of:ultivysaur:.
I say this as someone who loves superheavies...

I think a character who can switch being a lightweight, midweight and heavyweight is much more interesting of a design then one who can switch between a heavy, a heavy and a heavy.

Fair point. But imo, from a design and power set perspective Blastoise and Venusaur are just more interesting.

In the end, Ivysaur was probably the best choice to make from that family due to Bulbasaur not being able to do leaf slashes and Venusaur...well, just look at it. Its design makes it so it could be nothing but slow combo food in Smash.

Given how long Gen IV remake rumours had been around, I wonder when the decision to have someone else make it was made.
I imagine either during and/or after the troubled production with SwSh.

And that's all I have to say on that matter, because people can get utterly livid when discussing SwSh. G'night!

Y’know, I have that exact same Mega Man you have. My big bro got it for me for my birthday last year.
I'd smile and make a satisfied fist too if a pair of jugs like that were right in front of me.
And Goku's just preparing to vaporize her. 😭😭😭

I thought that said "will be the first main-series Pokemon games developed by Game Freak since the franchise's inception 25 years ago?" and was so confused for a moment.

They realized the games got so downhill that if the DP remakes were bad like gen 8 people would actually jump ship.

I was thinking of giving Soul a watch this week but you know what gonna wait until I'm finished up with my Kaijuthon and ending with Godzilla vs. Kong. So I'll probably watch it in the first week of April.

It's always bugged me that Android 21 (good) and Android 21 (bad) were never made fully playable in the multiplayer for FighterZ.

Can I just say the animal crossing community is pretty chill. I was browsing the Reddit for villagers yesterday and someone was giving Stiches away for free. So I asked since he’s one of my favorites. And on top of letting me have stitches, their island was pretty neat to tour and then they even gave me the golden tools.

it was pretty fun.
