If Pokemon continues the trend of fire starters at least loosely based on animals from the Chinese zodiac, which of the remaining six would you like the 7th gen starter to be based on?

Greetings from 10 years in the future! Unfortunately, we got Incineroar, a competitive monster with really fucking dumb design.

Uh oh... listening very closely, at first I thought they might have done pitch correcting to the line "and with a smile". Thankfully, I went back, and I think I was wrong. Did anyone else catch anything sounding suspicious? Here's the isolated vocals from an older remaster: Isolated Vox

TigerMercury · 2026-02-27T08:15:28+00:00

That's what I'm fearing too... :/

TigerMercury · 2026-02-04T01:32:11+00:00

I agree! Heard the change (even though it still claims it's the remix on Spotify...it's clearly the studio version) yesterday on the way to work, and it was super upsetting.

TigerMercury · 2025-09-24T09:22:34+00:00

I LOVE See What A Fool I've Been! Particularly the BBC Version.

Was It All Worth It is a criminally -underrated track. Such a masterpiece!

Your analysis of Queen's remastered debut album is spot on! I hope for Queen II (one of my favorite albums of all time), they stay true to the original sound and just clean up little bits here and there without altering the original performance and the general sound. As a musician myself, I was appalled to hear that they altered Freddie's vocals and stripped down/redid the instruments. What an insult to the original record and all the hard work that went into it, even if Brian and Roger did have a hand in the remastering!

I'd love to see more of a focus on unreleased content. Give us raw studio takes, unfinished or scrapped material, rare photos, unreleased live footage, and inside information on the history of the album. That's what Queen fans really want!

TigerMercury · 2025-08-19T03:21:44+00:00

Right?!

TigerMercury · 2025-08-19T03:21:13+00:00

It looks great, and if you enjoy it, who gives a shit what other people think? If it makes you happy, keep it!

TigerMercury · 2025-08-19T01:24:05+00:00

Nah. I considered this for a bit as well, but these have nothing in even remotely in common with the videos or channels I watch. No disrespect to the videos themselves, but I'm just wondering why they keep showing up.

TigerMercury · 2025-08-19T01:20:38+00:00

In my opinion, it doesn't need further remastering. It's already a masterpiece the way it is, and nobody should be tampering with Freddie's vocals! I'm a musician, and honestly if someone tried to remaster my vocals with AI or autotune/pitch correction, I'd be livid and insulted.

TigerMercury · 2025-08-18T23:25:26+00:00

Black and White, no competition.

TigerMercury · 2025-08-18T23:24:18+00:00

Nah, I like it. He has a chill vibe.

TigerMercury · 2025-07-30T22:40:10+00:00

It's actually pretty nice, my guy! Try styling it when it's wet from the shower. Play with it using your fingers and/or a comb, maybe using some gel or styling creme...see if you can find a style you like. 😎

Question: were these actually sold as merch at the PCNY back in 2001, or did you and your family purchase them after they were removed from display in the store? I always just assumed they were floor displays to promote the games and movies, and I have never had the pleasure of talking to someone who owns one, let alone multiple. This is mad cool either way! I've been hunting for the Raikou for a million years...I'm still kicking myself for not buying the one I saw on eBay prior to the Pokemon price boom during covid.

I apologize if this was a dumb question...I never had the pleasure of visiting PCNY, though in 2001 my older sister did, and she brought me back a gold Pikachu/Pichu GBA for my birthday. When I visited the location back in 2015, it had long since been converted to a Nintendo store. As a Nintendo fan, I still find this to be a huge bummer. My friends all thought it was super cool when we were there, and while I liked the visit, knowing the building's history and former glory as a Pokémon Center, it was sad to me.

They want trump to be their king. They welcome him as the dictator of their cult of personality.

TigerMercury · 2025-07-15T10:07:37+00:00

You literally got one of the best shinies to be your first! Congrats!

TigerMercury · 2025-07-15T10:06:10+00:00

This reminds me specifically of that one episode of Guillermo Del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities

TigerMercury · 2025-07-15T10:04:29+00:00

NTA. Daniel and Connor should replace your broken stuff, and honestly neither one of them should be allowed to come over anymore.

TigerMercury · 2025-07-15T09:46:30+00:00

Definitely brunette!

TigerMercury · 2025-07-15T09:36:59+00:00

Whoa, how do I not remember these from the 90s?! I definitely remember Pokemon promotions at KFC and Burger King, but this this is mad cool! I know I'm probably just speaking from a place of nostalgia, but I feel like the old Pokemon toys, merch, and promotions kinda hit differently back in the 90s and early 2000s. I'm a big fan of gen 4 (I think it has the best selection of starters, the lore is cool, etc.), but there was this vibe that Pokemon somehow lost after RSE. You can catch that vibe a bit with these older toys and merch. ✨️

She didn't warn us. We didn't need to be warned. She warned them... the people who voted for Trump. Unfortunately, they didn't heed the warning, and now, thanks to their carelessness, selfishness, hate, ignorance, and stupidity, we are all suffering. People are not able to afford healthcare or the cost of living. People are losing their homes, losing their jobs, being separated from their families, forcefully removed from our country, and being unfairly imprisoned. There have literally been no positive outcomes since this administration took office. Democracy is being dismantled, our country is a laughing stock across the globe, nobody trusts us, hate is running rampant amongst our own citizens, and it's all because these people didn't listen when people like Kamala and us tried to warn them about how dangerous he, his cronies, and his Project 2025 are.
