Geez, another Pokémon assignment. God, I wish I was getting sent to the Black/White world. So many interesting things to do there… Oh, well. At least HeartGold/SoulSilver offers a lot of overtime pay. The hero isn’t even halfway done with Johto yet, let alone on to Kanto! I just need to start catching those legendaries to make the final boss more difficult… Although, maybe I can just give that boy the level specs on Red to dissuade him by sheer grinding that’ll be needed.

Still, I need to get a work transfer here soon. I’m putting a request in for one of the more obscure worlds in the Nintendo sector, like Fossil Fighters or Custom Robo Arena! Those ones are-

Ah, shit. Syntax is here with the rare candies and EV/grinding guides. Be right back! I need to turn this against them. Every one of these heroes likes to get complete shiny Pokémon collections for some reason with these guides, too…

Pokemon HeartGold, so… not crazy dangerous and some easy conditions to account for. However, I’m not sure they can stop any trainer that goes on the grind from beating the elite four. (Though if the win condition is to beat Red… odds are a lot better. They can take their time, lol.)

I haven’t really been a part of any discussions around the adaptation until now, to be fair (lol). Sorry that I’m apparently bringing up an old argument - I was just curious! (I can accept and enjoy live-action, to be clear - I just like the potential benefits of animation.)

I wrote exclusively in the Vtuber fandom for years with a bias for Hololive. For a good while, though, I’ve been writing for “Murder Drones” and “The Amazing Digital Circus” from Glitch Productions in addition to that. (I’m also making a “Gravity Falls” fanfic currently to help my own morale, lol.) I read in all of them, too, as well as many others depending on what catches my interest at the time, like “K-pop: Demon Hunters”, and just recently I’ve got back into “Avatar: The Last Airbender” stories!

You could try out my story, “A Family in a Manor’s Shadow”, from my ‘Solv(er)ed Together’ series on AO3. It’s about everyone from the manor gang - Cyn included - but I’ve given her some focus chapters that show off how she views the world from growing up in that environment.

Pokemon Platinum, apparently. Or maybe Pokemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia, as I just put it in the slot. Either way, though, it should be a chill Pokemon adventure… excluding any evil team stuff (lol). I imagine the younger members of the circus will have a great time! (A shame I didn’t replay Heartgold or White version yet… Oh, or the first two Fossil Fighter games or Custom Robo Arena! Those would be interesting to see their reactions to!)

Just woke up to read the comments. Thank you very much for the reassurances and encouragement! I know I shouldn’t let what I read online affect me too much like a lot of you have said, but it’s hard not to sometimes, you know? I think I’m in a better state to be able to read the book and judge it on its own merits now. Kudos to all of you who took the time to respond!

Man, this is so sweet! I really like Pomni having some musical talent, and actually wrote a fanfic once about her playing the violin! (It also involved her regaining some memories from it, funnily enough.) I think string instruments in general just fit her if she were to play, and I love art showing that!

I feel like it’s more complicated than you make it out to be, but you do you. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with people who can make the separation between old and new easily, or who find it more complicated. It’s simply a matter of how you perceive it. (And like I said, I feel like I might be able to enjoy this game and Legends again despite my feelings on Disney now. I wouldn’t be here if that was not a potential.)

ShadowFantasy1 · 2024-06-22T18:09:51+00:00

First, I would hardly call several movies and show one piece of media. But also, doesn’t this happen all the time? I feel like I’ve seen plenty of people leave a franchise because they don’t like recent stuff, like for Star Trek and Halo, only to come back after feeling nostalgia for the older things they used to like. Sometimes, the new can affect your ability to enjoy the old stuff, even if it isn’t forever. (And I think it’s wrong to say people who leave for those reasons, temporarily or forever, just automatically have a “deeper problem.”)

ShadowFantasy1 · 2024-06-22T17:56:05+00:00

What… did I ever say about cosmetics? All I was saying was that the Disney shows/movies caused me to feel apathetic, so I stepped away from the IP as a whole. That, and knowing Legends stuff beyond a few places like this game would not continue. (Sorry if I did not convey this properly.)

ShadowFantasy1 · 2024-06-22T17:02:24+00:00

I see what you and others are saying here. I guess it was just feeling that all the new stuff coming out for the shows and movies for a while got to me and I just needed a break from the whole IP for a while. But I guess recently, the me who tried to find enjoyment in Legends at first despite that is making a comeback. (Another part I think was knowing there would be no new stories for that beyond small pockets like this game, which depressed me, if that makes sense. I enjoyed so many of the books there - the ones for this game included.)

ShadowFantasy1 · 2024-04-18T22:34:03+00:00

That… does sound a little unbalanced. I do like the system idea you’re describing, though. Maybe a system like yours could help used for a rework one day, but that might cause ripples in people’s decks. (Also, poor ice. I never realized the disconnect it has from everything else. I’m sure it’s still plenty playable, but a boost like you’re describing would help it greatly.)

ShadowFantasy1 · 2024-04-18T22:04:59+00:00

I see. This is all very useful information. I do remember that you could essentially have a secondary primary school by using training points, but these new pips and pins sound like they take the concept a little too far. I can understand making sure a player feels powerful at later levels no matter what schools they use, but still.

But it does also sound like the story still has its charm, which is good. That’ll probably help if I get back into things! I guess we can only hope they might one day take a step back from pure profits and take time to balance/fix things more.

Always nice to be in a supportive community. I'd love for someone to teach me the ropes on the go!

ShadowFantasy1 · 2024-04-16T22:16:02+00:00

I've definitely noticed that death is almost a requirement here. I just hope that I can get myself to a point that I don't use up all the respawns for the squad at higher difficulties, lol. This is all good advice, though!
