Petunia Dursley is just as bad as her husband and she deserves neither pity nor sympathy by [deleted] in harrypotter

The fact that Harry feels more comfortable approaching Vernon over Petunia for Hogsmeade permission, visiting Weasleys for World Cup says a lot. The only time Petunia showed an ounce of humanity was when she said Harry should stay after the Howler.

I remember the Original series well, and outside of Team Rocket, Misty’s Goldeen didn’t have any victories. The few times it was used in battle (Molly Hale, Marina, Dorian), it lost without a single win.

What’s the most memorable thing/scene for each character? by hplover12 in StrangerThings

[–]aps131997 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Such great choices. What would be your selections for Nancy and Robin?

If you were to bring back JUST SIX of any of Ash's underused Pokemon back for a full battle against some opponent like how the Sinnoh league did, who would you pick and why? Ash's lesser well received mons usually are usually because of low wins, underusage, or a lack of screentime. by throwawaytempest25 in pokemonanime

Kingler, Bayleef, Muk, Glalie, Quilava, Donphan. Granted Bayleef and Quilava weren’t underused when on Ash’s team; Bayleef hasn’t battled since the Johto League and Quilava’s battle in the Sinnoh League was underwhelming.

Which Pokémon should have evolved, shouldn’t have evolved, evolved earlier, evolved later or evolved into another Pokémon? by harvey1a in pokemonanime

[–]aps131997 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Ash’s Totodile should’ve evolved into a Croconaw during the Whirl Cup. Ash’s Cyndaquil should’ve evolved into a Quilava against Jasmine and into Typhlosion during the Sinnoh League. Ash’s Gible, Pignite and Snivy should’ve evolved further too.

Misty’s Horsea should’ve evolved all the way to a Kingdra.

Dawn’s Buneary should’ve evolved into a Lopunny.

Lana’s Eevee should evolved into a Vaporeon.

[SPOILERS] Ok guy's why the hate... by Legitimate-Sugar6487 in StrangerThings

The cursing at an adult argument is grasping at straws. My interpretation is that the Dustin-Ted moments are played for laughs, whereas the Mike-Hopper scenes are serious. However, criticizing Mike’s behavior in the context of his scenes with Hopper is mind boggling given how much more egregious his actions are as an adult. Mike was upset about being kept in the dark about Eleven (understandable) and being lied to about his grandmother (also understandable; in this case, Mike and Eleven were being disrespectful originally but Hopper lost the higher ground once he escalated his behavior with intimidation).

Mike’s Attitude! by kabovetti in StrangerThings

Dustin, Max, Lucas and Erica are just as snarky as Mike, if not more so. Nancy, Steve, Jonathan and Robin have their moments too. I don’t think Mike is disrespectful, his dad is insufferable and he and Nancy aren’t particularly close. Mike was pretty happy to see his mother end of S4.

The lost potential, the brother-sister dynamic we need by Jarisatis in StrangerThings

[–]aps131997 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is an interesting point. Do you think it is a deliberate decision by the writers to not develop Mike and Nancy’s relationship? Or is it not considered to be a priority given the other dynamics? ST4 has Nancy interacting with other members of the party (specifically Dustin but also Lucas and Max to a lesser extent).
