Red with Gmax Snorlax and Blue with Mega Aero are very interesting!

Ummmm…. uhhhhhh….. hmmm…. what should we talk about while waiting….. give your Smashboards/“The Heist” persona a pokémon evolution.
How about a Gigantamax form?


It's too easy when your heist persona is literally just a prexisting character.

There go more of my Gems. :ultpokemontrainer:

I remember calling Red and Snorlax months ago, but I am kind bummed he's a Support Unit. I really want to see them make a pure Normal striker just for fun. They'll probably save Pikachu for Master Unit classic Red or the Let's Go protagonists.

Classic Blue is a nice surprise, but doesn't seem as high priority. Would assume he'll be a Rock type, so I'm not sure what they'll do to differentiate him from Olivia. It's already a good bet that being a Mega Evolution unit their sync will be weaker. Being able to raise your team's crit opens up a lot of team building potential.

Also seems like 7* Units or some sort of new upgrade might be coming based on the new item that was teased. It could be how we obtain upgrade Giovanni to get Mega Mewtwo Y. We'll find out in the datamine most likely tonight.

Still wondering if they're going to address the elephant in the room with Leaf and Green. lol

I'm thinking that my penguin guy gets taller, and maybe could have some sort of steel modification to his wings like Empeleon. Now that I think about it, electric themed wings would be really cool visually and would play into the internet/online theme.

Aerodactyl surprised me at first, but looking through his history he's actually used it consistently since B2W2 and it's the only option in his roster that can Mega that hasn't been used yet, so it's a fitting option. Probably not going for him as I have Olivia and I prefer Archeops, so it's not a priority at all. Red and Snorlax I remember people thinking it'd be Pikachu, but I'm glad it's not as Snorlax is more interesting as an option. It being a support is also pretty unique as Fair Supports are few, so if nothing else it'll be unique.

Definitely really getting into that Clint Eastwood phase.

Gonna begin with watching Cry Macho this week and following that will be the Man With No Name Trilogy and The Mule.

Plenty of other films starring him I'll also have to check out from there on.

I'm surprised by no Leaf/Green. Maybe she could be a free unit like Bugsy and Scyther. I was thinking the new items will be used for the upgrades of units that had mega potential. As we have a few units now that could mega evolve but don't have the ability to right now. Either way, pretty good to see Blue and Red with some unique Pokemon.

opens twitter

sees people arguing against coeducation

closes twitter
No no, they have a point!

If we put boys in the same school as girls, the boys might get cooties! We can't be having any of that.

I miss when that was bullying (which is still wrong no matter how you swing it, light teasing is just nothing compared to literal death threats).
Oh, bullying has always been able to get worse then just teasing about cooties and casual sexism.

Can't deny that social media has been able to bring out some of the worst in people though.

Social media can be the worst but I think I still prefer it to the bullying I got in school.

At least I can just block/ignore people online, it's not like sharing a physical space with them.
