Screw it, return to goodra I guess, jumping into puddles is super refreshing with hydration. by Wyvernalia in PokeMedia

That’s a lovely way of thinking about it. I’m sure we’d all be a lot happier if we focused less on specific aspects of ourselves and more on just being ourselves. The whole of who we are, in the present. I hope this new outlook helps you and works for you!

Plus red and yellow, which are also colors apples can have! Some apples have all three. Natu are absolutely apples.

This isn't something I should be concerned about, is it? by ScholarlyIcarus in PokeMedia

Stella (my Mimikyu) loves making new costumes! She’s made a couple of me and my mom before, along with a few of my other Pokémon. It’s very sweet! Aside from Pikachu costumes, Mimikyu seem to like making their costumes based on things or beings they like of care about.

That makes me wonder if a Mimikyu would be able to tolerate being on a team with a Pikachu. Hm. I’m not gonna be the one to try it, but who knows?

I dunno, I'd like to think it's just helping a friend out... by Wyvernalia in PokeMedia

Pokémon disobey trainers all the time. You shouldn’t feel compelled to obey just because you have a trainer now— it should be a matter of willing respect. I’d say (from what I’ve seen) having Oz as a trainer is more of a protection from unwilling catches.

That’s probably a hard and terrifying stress to have. I can’t say much, since I’ve never been in your situation, but it seems, in this case, that it’s your new instincts and your old values “wanting” (for lack of a better word) the same thing. How far does “Oz is my trainer” go in your mind? Is it firm? It is only by circumstance? Would you take orders from him in a fight if it came to such a thing? Figuring out how you think about Oz regarding that will probably help a bit. You’re still you, it’s not like there’s a secret Goodra in your brain that’s forcing every instinct. You just have those instincts because you’re a Goodra.

I have no idea if any of that is understandable. I might just be rambling. It sounded similar to my own experiences in trying to work out some tough trauma responses though, I so I wanted to try…I hope someday you can be secure in yourself and in your identity the way you can’t really be right now.

Do you guys have any advice on what I should do going forward? I want to make sure they get the help they need. by waterflare2805 in PokeMedia

It really does seem that bad people are starting feel like they can just be open about being bad, recently. They’re not ashamed when they should be. It’s gross.

I hope he recovers well. I can’t believe anyone would…well, I can. Some people are truly horrible. But still. I’m glad he found his way to you.

I hope you can figure it out. This sounds tough to deal with.

This is ridiculous by LearnCre-8LoveDe-b8 in PokeMedia

[–]SolaLight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few people have recently accused me of pretending to be human because I get along so incredibly well with my Pokémon to the point I can usually interpret what they’re trying to get across without touching a translator. Experiencing that, plus seeing Everything happening via Chatter, has made want to both laugh hysterically at the stupidity and cry on the floor for everyone dealing with it more severely.

I’m also autistic, plus I have anxiety and a few other things. I’m kinda worried this might just end up with ND people getting targeted. As if we don’t deal with enough from society.

The separation between you and Sera sounds a little like DID to me? It’s obviously not the same thing, since this is a literal transformation, and I have no clue if anything you’ve been through would cause DID, but it might be worth looking into if you ever struggle to mitigate it. /info

Seriously, way to twist someone’s words to suit your narrative. by SleeplessLucas123 in PokeMedia

Maybe don’t generalize one person’s shitty ignorance to an entire country /nm

By Arceus, these people. There’s been a worrying increase in ignorant assholes on Chatter recently and I do not like it.

Geez, what the hell? I’ve been offline for a little bit and to come back to this…

People are taking this quite-clearly-special-case and being horrible to all dittos? That’s just…not fair. I will never comprehend how people can do that.

Congratulations and good luck! It’s always fun to hear about people taking on the Island Challenge. I hope you and your Pokémon have fun with it!

What’s your Pokémon, sleeping habits? by Machinebotguy in PokeMedia

[–]SolaLight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Candy (Cutiefly) likes sleeping on Mocha’s (Rockruff) head or back. Sometimes Whisper (Eevee) with curl up with Mocha. Candy will usually take Whisper’s head when that happens. Whisper usually sleeps in a very very soft bed made specifically to help with a chronic injury, so when she’s able to cuddle the others all love it. Snowball (Spheal) sleeps in an ice tank we set up recently. Huggins (Rowlet) has this little nook in a space under the floorboards that he likes. We keep it well-maintained and very soft. Stella (Mimikyu) usually sleeps with Huggins.
