Ive seen many people, that say "transitioning will help how you feel" when that issue cant alone be solved by that all the time

 

[Aurane]

I grew up on the philosophy that if you dont like me, that's probably the best for the both of us.

Did I miss anything?



It actually IS insensitive. You're conflating your own thoughts on gender with gender identity. Transgendered people don't identify just because they feel like it. It's about who they are at their core. Don't conflate 'identifying' with core identity. Someone simply crossdressing could identify with the opposite gender while they're doing so, but it's not their core identity. There's nothing wrong with any of it but it's still pretty key to understand the difference, moving forward.
There are odd cases, like gender-fluidity, but that's its own complex subject in transgenderism.

It's normal for people to project from their own experience and knowledge. Just maybe be aware that you're doing it, and know that it goes way further and deeper than what you've been talking about. It can be very unpleasant for someone transgendered to talk with someone who thinks likey ou've brought up. Being sensitive means understanding them deeper is part of it, as well as making an effort to respect who they are beyond the surface, in addition to what they think and feel.

Your body is your body. Who you are is who you are. It's psychological, and some might say beyond that as well.

Who are at the core? So how they feel? Same difference, it's just semantics. Unless you mean to the core to the point where we could objectively analyze. In that case, yes, Shish and I very much have the same aesthetic we want to achieve. That's one of the things we built our friendship on. The reason why I go by he and she goes by she boils down to how we feel. I know how deep it goes, it goes beyond what you're saying because people literally do make up genders for themselves. There's no official list of genders, it's pretty subjective and honestly it wouldn't be much of a thing if Tumblr culture didn't come along recently.


So it is much like otherkin? Sure sounds like it, as that is considered psychological and even spiritual. It's based upon how they feel about their identity. I know the word feel probably has you tripped up because so many people think that feelings are irrelevant. But no, they dictate a lot of who you are, they aren't trivial.

You know what needs a spiritual sequel, Poker Night at the Inventory. I want to play poker with more weird characters from all over multi-media. Imagine playing poker against Dante from Devil May Cry.

There are too many, so I probably have some ties that will not show here. I excluded mythical and legendary Pokémon to be fair.

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachme...64708113/1574b05866f55b80b76f70ebbc14594f.jpg

Blaziken, Blastoise, Krookodile, Incineroar, Infernape, Scoliopede, Ampharaos, Stoutland, Greninja, Crobat, Houndoom, Metagross, Dragonite, Charizard, Sceptile, Elektross, Staraptor.

I'm sure I'm missing a few that I really like, but those are some of my favorites, not to mention probably misspelling quite a few too.

 

[KMDP]

Honestly, I don't really think Qwilfish needs an evolution. It's already pretty potent in combat, and with its current kit, Eviolite Qwilfish might even be too good, what with its already solid defense, resistance to Water and Fairy, access to Intimidate, Thunder Wave, Spikes, Toxic Spikes, and whatnot.

Eh, maybe. It'd have insane physical bulk, but 55 special defense times 2 is only 110. That's really good, yeah, but Toxapex would still be kinda better in most ways.

I dunno, Qwilfish' Defense is 85, which when doubled becomes 190.

Considering there are Pokémon out there with well over 200 Defense (Regirock, Steelix, Aggron, Shuckle and Mega Aggron), that's really good but not exactly Game Breaking.

Especially since, as Brelooming Disaster said. it's Special Defense would only be Base 110, Special Attacks of the Electric, Psychic and Ground types would still damage Qwilfish pretty badly.

Not to mention that Eviolite Chansey gets Base 210 Special Defence (though it's Physical Defense still leaves a lot to be desired).

 

[Mythra]

This good.

The tutorials of this based mother****er helped me a lot, amazing artist.

 

[Pakky]

Snorlax get no play in anything? Why?

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Aww Yes!

But who would be in it?

If I just had to pick 4, this time I'd go with Dante (Devil May Cry), Doc Brown (Back to the Future), Bruce Wayne (DC Comics), and.... you know what, bring back Ash Williams! But honestly, I'd love it if there was a rotating cast of a bunch of different characters. Spice up each individual play through. Imagine Bruce Wayne and Tony Stark playing poker. Bugs Bunny, Doctor Who, MatPat, Bonnie from FNAF (Wink if you get the reference).

Fixed that one.

Serperior is also a top pick for me

Why do I like this pic in particular so much?

 

[Wademan94]

Here's the only one that matters.

Hot take, Lucario being the gen 4 mascot and Smash character was a wasted opportunity and Garchomp should've been the Smash character.
#facts

Another reason why I’m pushing Cynthia quite a lot...

 

[Knight Dude]

Also, TOP 15 characters? I had trouble coming up for 10 before the game launched. You'd have to give me a minute to think it out.

You're right honestly.

On a more serious note, it's probably this.

Lots of Gen 1 and 4.

Oooh a favorite pokemon of each type chart meme thing? i remember filling one out before USUM came out.. course that was per generation too. Anyone care to put a link?

Not to mention that Eviolite Chansey gets Base 210 Special Defence (though it's Physical Defense still leaves a lot to be desired).

To be fair, those physically defensive Pokemon you listed have underwhelming types and/or HP stats, and Intimidate makes it's defense effectively to even higher against most Pokemon. But still, I think Toxapex would still be a bit better in the long run. Recover for reliable recovery, access to Regenerator for even more longevity, and Haze to prevent it from being set-up bait. These are things that Qwilfish doesn't really have, and the entry hazards niche that Qwilfish has is shared with Toxapex.

But don't get me wrong! Evolite Qwilfish would be amazing! I just think saying it would be too good would be a little bit of a stretch. That's just my opinion, though!

 

[Deleted member]

It's mostly a love it or hate it sort of thing. It did some things really well. It did others really poorly. It mainly depends on what you as a consumer are looking for.

That and people in general are more vocal about what they dislike over what they like. Generally it's easier to pinpoint things you dislike.

See, how I see it with RPGs mostly is with a pseudo-5 star rating, but these are what I look for: Music, Characters, Gameplay, Writing and Landscape/Ethos. From what I've always heard, some parts of the gameplay, for sure some things in the character department and definitely writing, where all the main glaring stuff lies on whenever I saw talks of the games.

And if I'm gonna pull in over 30 hours at least in an RPG, all those things are kinda amplified a bit more, lol. I just thought from what I've heard out of those five things for Fates that it was pretty lacking. That, and I guess the staggered release of multiple versions, which had always been weird to me.

I purposely excluded all Legendary/Mythical Pokemon & Ultra Beasts, since if I didn't, almost all of the types would be filled by them:

Honorable mentions to Charizard, Tyranitar, Aggron, Metagross, Flygon, Serperior, Maractus, Zoroark, Hydreigon, and Minior.

I know the word feel probably has you tripped up because so many people think that feelings are irrelevant. But no, they dictate a lot of who you are, they aren't trivial.

I don't disagree with you on a more advanced level, but differences exist and they're important at this stage for progress in culture. Transgenderism is key because people naturally identify with gender, some of it is nature, and the rest is culture. Identities like otherkin are not human, so it is not in our nature or culture, Psychology can explain it in other ways, and it's a subject that's worth exploring once we've established a more stable basis first.

It's important not to lump in everyone together. And also to respect the different gender identities first, because it's crucial to moving on forward. There have been too much suffering including suicides. Those who suffer from it need more care. Though everyone deserves respect, aiming for harmony.

2. Geno/Banjo interchangeably
3. Isaac for his fans?
After that there's a bunch of characters I think would be cool, but I'm not really super passionate about any character tbh.

 

[Deleted member]

TBH I don't even know how I would pick 15 characters

Uh just get like, every Zelda character in there k thanks
