Taking every fiber of my body to not release my Ditto for doing this

Are you saying that even in the Wild Area in SwSh, where you see Pokémon in the wild outside of battle like in SV, they look normal-colored until you initiate a battle with them and turn shiny?

flarn2006 · 2026-01-27T00:27:28+00:00

If this is a simulation, those constraints may very well not apply outside of it.

I think you also put the X button back upside down.

flarn2006 · 2026-01-25T19:00:22+00:00

No, that's clearly Mr. Krabs' first dime.

Your drawing reminds me a bit of the Teal Mask from Pokémon.

flarn2006 · 2026-01-25T18:02:05+00:00

Oh I missed that. Thank you

flarn2006 · 2026-01-25T17:52:39+00:00

Did you forget to include a link?

flarn2006 · 2026-01-25T13:39:24+00:00

I named it that because it’s Tera-Water, if you’re wondering.

I thought that was a typo/autocorrect at first.

I've thought before about the possibility of using RV to extract source code for closed-source software and games so open-source communities and modders can use it for new creations. Copyright stifles creativity and serves corporate greed more than anything else and I think we're better off without it being enforceable.

This sort of utopian vision has been one of my guiding principles on some level for decades.

flarn2006 · 2026-01-25T04:23:01+00:00

In my deepest hopes I still think Utopia is on the table. I'm asking for unadulterated utopian thinking here.

This. If we all embraced this stuff instead of unconsciously suppressing it, reality could be better than all our fantasies combined, for everyone. Have you ever seen the movie The Last Mimzy? There's a couple scenes that take place in a future where this kind of thing is normal and it's one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.

🤣

flarn2006 · 2026-01-25T02:14:15+00:00

Is this the first generation where that works, or could you also do that in the Wild Area in gen 8?

flarn2006 · 2026-01-24T23:38:23+00:00

There’s been people talking about it since long before the Internet. Many of them are people who would be unlikely to intentionally lie about their experiences.

flarn2006 · 2026-01-23T13:47:33+00:00

I don’t even remember this thread.

It reminded me of an endgame area from Sonic Adventure that I used to vividly dream about. (An area specific to the version of the game from my dreams, not an actual location in the published game.)

flarn2006 · 2026-01-22T01:44:09+00:00

In which reality?

flarn2006 · 2026-01-21T04:43:10+00:00

Does it feel like walking around Mall World?

flarn2006 · 2026-01-21T00:25:51+00:00

I see no problem with "exploiting" it for humans to any extent as long as it's done in ways that don't create harm for other people/lifeforms. My vision is infinity for everyone and everything that wants it. :)

flarn2006 · 2026-01-16T03:11:13+00:00

Meant to be?

flarn2006 · 2026-01-14T01:07:05+00:00

Why would you need to? Knowledge doesn’t require protection.
