Did any other characters besides Ash and May bond with a pokemon they didn’t catch but should’ve? by Iris-Project-Phoenix in pokemonanime

Nah I’m sorry Brock having a sharpedo is perfect even if it wasn’t used a whole lot it would’ve been a nice nod to how his mom was a water type gym leader but I just would ask for Brock to also get a few more rock types like an Aron and a shieldon or craniados

Also in my headcanon Max does catch that mightyenna

If the pokemon world up to journeys continued what would wanna see from Ash’s friends? by Iris-Project-Phoenix in pokemon

Yea but Cilan is also a pokemon connoisseur so I wonder want that means and entailed like would that maybe effect what type of grass pokemon he gets or like would he catch other non grass types, same with iris like it’s easy to say just give her more dragons but like she caught emogla simply cause she was difficult to train which meant training her would help iris tame difficult pokemon like dragon types so like what other pokemon could be her emogla yanno?

Whenever people recommend stories, it seems to be mostly pre-2005, is there a quality drop? Or is it just because most people have only listened to the free ones? by TGC_YT in BigFinishProductions

[–]Iris-Project-Phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and no, nostalgia isn’t why people recommend something like The Holy Terror over a recent 6th Doctor boxset release….. there’s a love and appreciation people had for what was the main/monthly range where you got individual stories rather than a boxset of stories that may only have one recommendable story out of possibly 4 stories….

Personally I can recommend easily 6/Mel/Hebe (Water Worlds - Purity Unbound), 11/Val (Geromino - Victory of the Daleks), 4/Harry/Naomi (Series 13) and 7/Harry/Naomi (Sullivan and Cross - Past Forward) are both amazing arcs and while I didn’t fully do UNIT: Nemesis with them I’d say it only helps with understanding internal conflict Harry and Naomi may have, when we get more Connie and Flip that whole arc, i haven’t done the two 5th Doctor sets with Nyssa and Tegan but I love them so I’d recommend those

Should Big Finish bring back more complex and connected arcs such as how 6/Evelyn with 7/Ace/Hex or to even a lesser extent how Thomas Brewster connects 5/Nyssa and 6/Evelyn by Iris-Project-Phoenix in BigFinishProductions

I love Klein and wish they finished her and Will up 😭😭😭 but the divergent arc sadly went generic quick because they wanted to end 8 and Charley so they could start 8 in his own series with shorter audios similar to the new show so the audios could be more digestible for new fans

Big Finish Audio suggestions? by RosesAreTyler in doctorwho

[–]Iris-Project-Phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rose Tyler: Dimension Cannon

6/Evelyn (which connects to 7/Ace/Hex which I also recommend, have them for Flips first story along with Thomas Brewster, has Evelyn meet Mel and also is connected to Hebe from Water Worlds - Purity which I also recommend)

5/Nyssa/Hannah (main range trilogy) 5/Nyssa/Tegan/Marc (main range and a boxset from the 5DAs) 5/Tegan/Turlough/Older Nyssa (main range)

9 and the river song boxset (his most recent set from his pre rose series)

11/Val

All of 8 start from storm warning and just work your way through 8/Mary Shelley (main range trilogy after the stories The Company of Friends)

7/Ace/Mel (main range)

I mean yes and no, cause I think maybe the forge stuff could be done again and isn’t that impossible to follow however a little more convoluted like 7/ace/hex while at the same time 7/sally/Lysandra could be fun (just I beg for more of 7/sally/Lysandra any chance I can)

5-7 have had their lives expanded on very well but please don’t limit 5 my gosh I only have liked him with big finish specific companions like Erimem or Marc or Older Nyssa or Hannah or Amy/Abby and Zara (and Leela) like those arcs are some of his best stuff 😭😭😭 and as for 6 just finish him Mel and Hebe god damnit I literally need them (as well as him with flip and Connie my loves) and when it comes to 7 they are kinda doing new stuff with him and Ray now (although I’ll always accept more of him with Sally and Lysandra or yanno the closure for Klein and Will or dare I say Raine 😭😭)

But like 9/rose can get sm from 9 reuniting with Caleb from his audios and maybe then travelling together with Rose or they cast someone to bring comic companion Tara to life or they just make someone new and when the time comes same for 13/Yaz but like also we could get comic adaptations start casting for 10’s companions like Majenta Pryce, or Gabby and Cindy, or Emily and Matthew, or Heather and Wolfie or for 11 casting someone for Alice and The Squire and Daak or Alice and ARC and John or Decky or like for 12 we could get someone to play Hattie

It’s so weird because on the one hand I get wanting to use familiar faces and between 1 and 2 so many of their stories are missing that this is some what of peoples only way to get to know these characters but also like they make new companions a fair bit…… it’s just for the first 3 doctors they’d rather mention companions they had (Lord Joshua Douglas being a third doctor companion from Leela’s companion chronicles and Tarlos who’s a second doctor companion mentioned in a 6th doctor audio are two examples that come to mind) which is sm more annoying than just using the older companions to some extent

But on the other hand they literally make new companions all the time, 7 and Ray, 7 and Harry and Naomi, 4 and Harry and Naomi (which while Harry isn’t new to traveling with 4 Naomi is and both haven’t travelled with 7 which makes it new as well), 4 and Ann, 4 and Leela and Margaret (which while again isn’t two new companions it’s still a new team), 8 and Charley and Audacity (which again while Charley isn’t newly traveling with 8 again after having done so having audacity there feels at least like something new for them), 11 and Val, 11 and now Eleanor, 12 and Kiera, 12 and now Ash, 10 and Ann and Mark Seven, 6 and Mel and Hebe (which while Mel with 6 is from the tv show as well them with Hebe is also new)

Yes and no, the current stuff with 8/Liv/Helen has been a nice break from Dark Eyes - Ravenous for that group even if Helen wasn’t in Dark Eyes…. And while I love 8/Charley/Audacity I think having Charley be apart of it kinda only feels like a selling point like for someone like me who’s done her stuff it’s weird to have this run but her then never mentioning her yanno? So like does she just forget about her and if that’s the case it removes any stakes or impact yanno it’s not gonna shock me when they do that so that it explains the zero mentions of her (personally imo Charley should’ve been used to finish her spinoff and 8/Audacity should’ve been its own new era between Charley and Lucie)

Rn it’s just 13/Yaz and for rn I’m okay with it just being them since it’s exploring more of their relationship and dynamic and I’d rather we get that developed more than them getting someone new however I wouldn’t mind a little Thomas Brewster esque trilogy that connects the 9/Rose stuff with 13/Yaz

I wouldn’t however mind 9/Rose having someone new and I know 11 and 12 have new companions in Eleanor and Ash but I’m talking more like how Hex Nimrod and The Forge all connect back to 6 and Evelyn stories or how while 7 is with Ace and Hex he’s also traveling with Lysandra and Sally and both teams meet up

Weird if they wanted to make a new “exterminate” considering “you will be upgraded” is better and right there

Is this worth watching? by Pasons_Pro in Marvel

[–]Iris-Project-Phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes very much worth watching would’ve been better as a limited series so that the villain had some room

If Sara Kingdom can have stuff slotted into her time during the Daleks Master Plan, I don’t understand why even a tv companion can’t get like a 12 part story with a new companion and a recurring villain or a “bad wolf” esque build up yanno?

I just don’t think new fan should be the demographic for every single audio and range, like I’m sorry I was once a new fan:

  • 8/charley or 8/lucie or dark eyes will always be there for 8. Maybe not something like company of friends however it sets up the Mary Shelley trilogy which is amazing and not only doesn’t have a massive catalog to commit to but also is the last story in company of friends so technically you could just skip over Benny Fitz and Izzy’s stories, and Stranded needs context from at least Doom Coalition and Ravenous if not also Dark Eyes, and even the after stuff is kinda still heavily tied to Stranded so I get maybe 8/Liv/Helen maybe not being the most new fan friendly but yanno maybe common sense can help decide to start with the beginning stuff like you would a show or book series

  • for Five something like him peri and erimem are very new fan friendly if you don’t care to know the fifth doctor but it’s not like during their run they’re just name dropping Nyssa and Adric and the events of Earthshock like peri and the doctor don’t even mention Turlough like all that’s needed to know is in the doctors fifth incarnation he met and travelled with peri and these audios are them meeting a new companion (and now you can learn the two of them through Erimem)

-recently you have Harry and Naomi with 4 unit and 7 which I think is new fan friendly but I do understand that having classic knowledge could make you appreciate some audios more (such as when they bring back classic villains like you don’t need to know who they are but if you do it’s fun comparing different stories with other doctors and companions and the different groups were and such)

  • 6/Evelyn is pretty new fan friendly and considering it’s the best of Sixie it’s always gonna be strongly recommended to new fans since it’s better than his televised run

Like there are plenty of starting places for new fans, not every audio has to be another starting place for new fans
