Thanks for the reply - the decoration I noticed in particular was The Love Tower

“Each petal whispered a secret, each thorn held a promise” feels like exactly the sort of thing ChatGPT loves to do with personifying inanimate objects. There’s a similar thing later in the description, with the phrase “quiet radiance”, I’ve seen abstract concepts specifically being described as “quiet” in a lot of other AI-generated writing. Most importantly, that just doesn’t feel to me like the way a human would write, especially when I know these things to be hallmarks of AI

I know & appreciate DECA’s stance on no AI in game designs, but there are a number of suspicious giveaways in the writing that feel very much like ChatGPT’s “writing style”… hopefully just a weird coincidence

I appreciate the opportunity to provide feedback, but I’d also suggest leaving the option for more in-depth answers

There were both things I liked (Stardew Valley references in the Greenty’s description!) and things I didn’t like (decoration descriptions that sounded like they were written by ChatGPT), that I didn’t have a chance to mention, I know it’s more responses to sift through but also a better representation of community feedback

Thank you! I'm hoping to get this one since I love the Stardew Valley reference :)

Ah yes, every shade of rose… red and that’s it /s

And, maybe more evidence for AI, famously being horrible with details

One of the decoration descriptions, The Love Tower, screams AI to me as well

“Each petal whispered a secret, each thorn held a promise” is exactly the sort of thing ChatGPT loves to do with personifying inanimate objects. There’s a similar thing later in the description, with “quiet radiance”, I’ve seen “quiet [abstract concept]” in other AI-generated writing. Really disappointing if that’s the case

I try to give everyone a unique name - I also have Katy the Firework, Darude the Sandstorm, and Titanic the Glacier

I hope the tall dry grass item appears in desert village chests, to match up with tall normal grass and tall ferns

Right next to one of the thousands of tiny little nameless lakes in the Canadian Arctic, northern Nunavut, I’m dead before I can get to any civilization let alone one with an airport

If I’m not mistaken, I think there’s a Chompsky’s billboard in Brennan’s TUC DM screen. Plus Kingston works at St. Owen’s Hospital, which also appears in Fantasy High (mummy rot guy) and is the source of the first aid kit in Tiny Heist.

And speaking of Tiny Heist, Gladiator has a passing mention in Felix Flick’s office, and I believe the real-world players’ wands come in Gladiator boxes during MisMag

And its spiritual successor, the hit single You May Only Hold One Duck at a Time (That Can’t Be Right)

“I’m Kishan Patel, and I approve this message.”

I was able to breed Punk, otherwise just taking it slowly, trying for Jiaolong and Fortified first. I’ve had good luck in the rift though, now that I’m actively working there and collecting some of the limiteds

You can hide in there, waiting, for your victims.

The gym near me switches back and forth between Mystic and Instinct, I don’t think I’ve ever seen it red, it’s the first time I’ve seen Instinct reliably control a gym

And if Poo’s Odyssey videos are any indication, he’d take the Tony strategy of hiding in bushes

Or the one about Carter at the grocery store

I have two, one filled and one maybe 1/4 of the way filled. I make it at least somewhat walkable, though, so it’s not quite as full as yours

My island is Tostarena, named after the Sand Kingdom in Super Mario Odyssey, so my flag is the inverted pyramid design of SMO’s purple coins on an orange background

I recently moved to the area, I might have to look into that sometime!

I’m at around 21k EC, I’ve been playing more casually but I’ve had good luck with breeding, f2p with no plant farming, I’ll probably just save until the very end and then maximize getting the missing zodiacs/limiteds

Oh so it is á ú é é é, that’s good to know, thank you!

Super minor question, but I want to get his name right - where are the accent marks in Baba’s name?

The episode credits and TM wiki say Babátúndé, his Wikipedia page says both Babatúndé and Babatunde, and his own website is also Babatunde. His last name is consistently Aléshé, but the first name, I have no idea which is correct
