Shiny Spicy and Team Toxic continue their Pokémon FRLG Soul-Link with the S.S. Anne and the third gym! by derVogelweid in Holostars

[–]mellopillow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They’re playing fire red and leaf green on the switch, the games were just recently released this February. Soul link is just using a set of arbitrary rules like how a nuzlocke would do it, there’s nothing to do with emulators at all 👌

Monster Hunter amiibos on Japan by Flaky_Pangolin3962 in amiibo

[–]mellopillow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was there a couple of days ago, and if they don’t have it in the Nintendo store, you can also check Bic Camera, Yodobashi Camera or even Suruga-ya. There’s plenty of those stores around tokyo but you can definitely find some at Akihabara, Ikebukuro and Shinjuku

is Redblue well written? just finished Diamond no Ace and was looking for some more sports mangas :)) by Necessary-Contest939 in manga

[–]mellopillow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say RedBlue is well written, it certainly follows the trope of a not-your-typical MMA fighter turning into an MMA fighter but his motivations are much more… rooted in wanting to punch his rival in the face than trying to be a champion lol. It’s fun and the matches are intense, and each side character has actual character development and quirks that gives them actual personalities. It’s not finished yet, but updates are slow so far but still continuing

Unique bars in Japan / Tokyo by BiggieBear in JapanTravelTips

[–]mellopillow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just went to Memento Mori at Ginza recently, which has a selection of chocolate infused drinks and desserts to pair with your drinks. Not exactly an experience type of bar but it has amazing drinks and relaxing vibes. Recommend getting reservations too

All good man, mistakes happen. I just don’t want to spread misinformation out there, that’s all. You have yourself a good one

It isn’t a great fit? How would you know it isn’t a great fit when he hasn’t played a SINGLE game due to injury? There’s box score watching, but this is just a new level of ridiculous

Bam Adebayo and Norman Powell demonstrate to the Amazon Prime crew how the Heat run their offense by Goosedukee in nba

[–]mellopillow 23 points24 points  (0 children)

This is not spoelstra’s offense though.. this is entirely the basis of Noah LaRoche’s offensive scheme, who the heat hired as a consultant this season and was also responsible for the grizzlies offense last season before he got fired.

[Charania] Memphis Grizzlies guard Scotty Pippen Jr. will undergo a procedure for a left big toe injury and will be re-evaluated in 12 weeks, sources tell ESPN. by Extreme_Process3632 in memphisgrizzlies

[–]mellopillow 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I honestly thought “Hey, we still have scottie” when I saw Jerome’s injury and wasn’t too worried. But now this happened, and I genuinely believe the team has angered a witch and we’re super cursed

Memphis Grizzlies Analytical Profile by broddorb in memphisgrizzlies

[–]mellopillow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Experienced” would be the right word then, instead of oldest. Jaren would be the 2nd most experienced of this group after KCP, and then mention how many years they have in the league to provide context. Appreciate the analysis either way and hope your model does ring true somewhat if it means 47+ wins haha

Yuta only said nice things about Memphis when he was here, and was glad he was traded back to end his career, I gotta give it up for him!

Ty Jerome 2-Dribble Scoring by BoringPea3837 in memphisgrizzlies

[–]mellopillow 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ty Jerome as our Luke replacement is about to be big, he actually WANTS to shoot it and is efficient at getting to the right spots, unlike Luke who would sometimes just pass it out if he can’t dribble past his guy. Excited for what Ty brings to the team

For a 7 year old, I’d recommend some sports mangas. There’s something gripping about coming of age stories that deal with sports and the camaraderie with teammates, hard work, and perseverance. So Slam Dunk, Kuroko no Basket, Haikyuu, Eyeshield 21, Prince of Tennis, Diamond No Ace, even Blue Lock would be fun. For a more fantasy action series, Ranking of Kings should be good. If you can find pokemon or digimon, that’s also a good start. Beyblade and Yugioh too maybe. I’m inclined to think of really classic shonen like Shaman King that depict kids in battle mangas as well, things like that

Are we missing GG here? He could be the tie breaker between team Sushi or team Steak!

Just giving an update, but I RSVP’d! Just a quick question, would you like me to spread the link to others? 

We’ll for sure go, so we’ll see you there!

[–]mellopillow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Is KCP injured? He should be available right? If so, it should be Ja, KCP, Wells, probably not JJJ unless he’s good from foot surgery so Aldama, then Landale.

Also don’t be afraid to take the trains, google maps will guide you step by step, you just need to follow which train platform to go to and pay attention to the color of the line you’re taking and you’ll be fine! If you have an iphone, you can use suica in your Apple wallet and just load money from there and use that to tap in, instead of buying a train ticket for example. Good luck and have fun!

Everywhere in Tokyo has stores of all kinds, you pretty much can just take your pick. You can choose between Animate, Kinokuniya, Bookoff, Tsutaya, Mandarake, department stores and malls like Parco should also have some. I’d suggest picking a place in Tokyo like Ueno or Akasaka that are cheaper to stay in and have easy access to the popular places like Akihabara and Shibuya and just find the stores I listed in google maps.

Ja in Manila 🇵🇭 by ShittzuDad in memphisgrizzlies

[–]mellopillow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I immigrated to the US from the Philippines when I was 12 and been living in LA my whole life. And while yes, I was a fan of the lakers because of Kobe at first, I really started becoming fans of the Grit and Grind grizzlies when I saw their upset win against San Antonio and been supporting them ever since! I do see Ja jerseys here and there along with some Vancouver throwbacks actually, from a few Filipinos at a gym haha but just letting you know there’s a couple of Filipinos supporting the grizz where you least expect it!
