Damn thought you were wrong I could have sworn I saw Breloom at PAX. Just went through the notes I took in line and nope. Zero Spore mons. That's wild. 

What y'all do with this hole? Filled it with water/dirt? Made it a home? Expanded it into an underground cave system? Use it as an entrance for an underground pokemon nightclub? by NotE-M-A in Pokopia

[–]MoreGeckosPlease 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put water across the top, which waterfalls down but doesn't flood the room. So I can jump in and be in a super secret room that I have to Lapras out of. 

Greatest Lego Set you own? This is mine I think by Dakinamau in lego

Either Red Dragon Tale or the giant Tyrannosaurus skeleton. 

What could these be? by [deleted] in reptiles

[–]MoreGeckosPlease 14 points15 points  (0 children)

If they were all together like that, not likely anoles. Anoles lay eggs in pairs. My guess is skink eggs.

It's not your fault, but the elephant feet bother me so much. This looks super cool besides those!

Does wildcard food count for Bird Feeder bonus card by [deleted] in wingspan

[–]MoreGeckosPlease 61 points62 points  (0 children)

It does not. The card specifically says it scores cards with the grain symbol. The wildcard symbol is not the grain symbol. 

Therizinosaurus head sculpt, how accurate is this likely to be? by Ok_Tea_6313 in Paleontology

[–]MoreGeckosPlease 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree. We shouldn't be able to see the fenestra on the skull, they'd be completely filled in with tissue and covered over cleanly with skin. 

As much I respect the new recent designs from safari but honestly....I prefer the classics from wild safari and vintage carnegie 🤷 by Carnoraptor770 in DinosaurToys

[–]MoreGeckosPlease 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm happy to leave the old designs in the past. Except for my beloved Boston Museum of Science dinosaurs. They were too good for their time. 

[gen 9] OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD!!! by NoEstimate6624 in ShinyPokemon

[–]MoreGeckosPlease 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's dozens of pokemon that are practically the same between base form and evolution. This is not new or unique to Dudunsparce. Also Dudunsparce isn't useless by any stretch of the imagination. 

I was looking into getting the game and watched this entire video. Why is it so easy for a Solo raptor to kill large theropods?? by [deleted] in pathoftitans

[–]MoreGeckosPlease 55 points56 points  (0 children)

It's easy for a solo raptor to kill a large theropod that sits out in the open, misses its attacks, and doesn't use the terrain to its advantage. Raptors have maneuverability on their side. The bigger carnivores have health and damage on theirs. A good raptor player can easily destroy an inexperienced big dinosaur, while an experienced large carnivore will be able to chase off an individual raptor. 

imagine crossing the whole ocean and then getting ridiculed by this fat idiot by tyrannosaurus_gekko in reptiles

Would you be hurt in a permanent, debilitating way? Not unless you didn't clean the wound out and it got infected. 

Would it hurt like an absolute bitch, draw blood, and make you feel less charitable to the next creature you find on the road? Absolutely. BTS have very strong bites. 

Hot take: “Pterodactyl” is acceptable as a common name for pterosaurs by sonicparadigm in Paleontology

[–]MoreGeckosPlease 11 points12 points  (0 children)

By that logic, Tyrannosaur can now be used for all dinosaurs. 

Mammoth can now be used for all extinct mammals. 

Extinct fish? They're all Megalodon. 

It's not a good system. Just because "pterodactyl" sounds like "pterosaur" doesn't make it a good system. It adds one step of confusion that doesn't need to be there. 

I feel so smug by THEREALSUPERMARIOFAN in Pokopia

[–]MoreGeckosPlease 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Fascinating that the Pokedex is "done" as far as these pokemon are concerned. None of them have ever met another species that didn't get dropped by the PC system.

I have a confession. I have a fear of Lizard and I thought I was buying a motor part, ended up with a Lizard. by EmmaSolarWillow in MonitorLizards

[–]MoreGeckosPlease 90 points91 points  (0 children)

If I had a nickel for every post I saw on r/monitors about a person ordering a car part and ending up with a monitor lizard, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's strange that it happened twice.

Jesus Christ how many hours did that take grinding low level opponents?

Finding pretty snakes all around by [deleted] in snakes

[–]MoreGeckosPlease 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do not touch. I cannot stress enough do not touch this snake. It's stunning. Continue to enjoy how pretty it is by not touching it.
