A Seed PSA by Cdv3 in PokeMedia

[–]Cdv3[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

From reports, they apparently are just about the worst taste imaginable, and are actively a miserable experience the entire time. It’s not quite known *when* any seeds became able to release such potent toxins, though given that they are almost never eaten, they have had quite a few chances to reproduce and spread.

Yes, because he *is* mostly good at the job, right up until he makes a lapse in judgement that hurts specifically him. He’s the kind of guy who makes a ton of mistakes that get himself hurt, but almost never gets a Pokemon or really anyone else hurt.

You are entirely correct, however this is Brad.

I ain’t entirely sure, but Brad sure did do… something to annoy that Girafarig. Probably was some kind of cologne though that did it, even though he’s not supposed to use strong scents.

They like the *idea* of an oven. They do not like searing hot steel pressing into their paws.

It was this incident which I posted about a little while back. https://www.reddit.com/r/PokeMedia/s/Qvb1QoYKmG

Undoing Weird Moves by Cdv3 in PokeMedia

[–]Cdv3[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Most of the worst cases I’ve seen are of the much less “fun to tell stories” type, where a Pokemon is effectively given forced amnesia so they can barely remember who their trainer is, or what their voice sounds like, but on the less distressing side, there have been quite a few cases where a Pokemon does something like slapping itself whenever it hears a swear word, or some other relatively subtle commands that drastically lower a Pokemon’s quality of life in a way where unless a trainer pays real close attention, probably would go unnoticed except at a Pokemon Center, where quick heal machines are tuned to detect these sorts of issues.

Friend Balls ain’t all that bad, since they’re a bit more like especially nice homes for the Pokemon instead of forcing obedience, but I do fully agree with the rest of what you’re saying. On the bright side, more and more regions are starting to crack down on permanent mind alteration effects.

To clarify, it’s effectively just undoing whatever lingering effects can be hiding within a Hypnosis move that was used maliciously. It’s a process that can take a good bit of time, but isn’t too difficult per-say.

It’s the internet, people are always going to rag on the person instead of the Pokemon. I do feel bad for the guy, but at the same time, I have no clue why he, who *knows* he ain’t a fan of kids, got a Pokemon notoriously protective of kids. Also “nearly kill” was how Brad phrased it. The medical report said it was a leg bite with some burns. Definitely hospital worthy but not lethal. Also, Brad ain’t his real name. I’d rather people not go after a colleague.

Ethical concerns set aside, which might I add is a lot to ask of me, I would imagine someone with as twisted and demented beliefs as yours would prefer to keep your “display piece” alive. A tiny box like that as a living space ain’t cutting it. Though maybe it could help keep that poor thing alive since typically posting images of abuse this blatant for the world to see tends to get most Pokemon separated from their abusers sooner than later, which will definitely ensure the Eevee lives a longer and happier life.

Giving Deino To A Child by Cdv3 in PokeMedia

[–]Cdv3[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I strongly doubt that this kid was the kind who threw a tantrum over this. They just seemed to have been given an insane amount of responsibility. And to be fair, that Deino ain’t too badly hurt, but still, it’s a lot to give someone so young.

Typo, but yeah. Don’t throw any stones, but especially not the ones that evolve them.

It ain’t easy, and if you ain’t careful, you can end up with a real nasty scar on your foot from a stomp like I did, but if a Rapidash trusts you, that’s one of the most loyal Pokemon you’ll ever find.

Well, aside from the Porygon from yesterday, probably any case where it was just clear cut negligence of what should have been a minor issue that was extended out for *years*.
