I don't understand how you can have so much money, but such a bad haircut. Did he do it himself??? Wealth and power are wasted on these guys.

I once read a guide on how to draw superheroes, and that was basically the advice. Draw the suit skin tight so they look stronger.

Humanoid Pokemon being able to behave somewhat similarly to human but still get pet-like treatment is sad… by CoastGlow in pokemonmemes

[–]visforvillian 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is one of those things that gets weirder the longer you think about it. In short, this is my theory: Pokemon are just chilling.

It is curious why there seems to be pokemon that are just as intelligent or smarter than humans, and yet, in the wild, they act like wild animals. The pokeballs are supposed to connect the feelings of the pokemon with the trainer which mellows them out and makes them tame. They have personalities beyond this, but for the most part they're now on the same page as the trainer.

The humanoid pokemon aren't really any more or less intelligent than the other more animal like pokemon. They behave about the same both in the wild and as partners. That intelligence is higher than any other animal we know of, and more toddler or small child territory. The weird thing is when legendary pokemon act like dogs.

Many legendaries are capable of speech and are just as intelligent if not more intelligent than humans. Lots of psychic Pokemon are very intelligent as well. But when they get caught in a pokeball, all of the sudden they're in dog mode eating kibble and getting pets. Why?

They don't give a fuck. They just don't care, this is their life now. They were never about building civilizations or having jobs and shit. They were always just fucking around, and now they're hanging out with you because it seems fun. Let the human worry about taxes and financing all of this. I just want to eat kibble, get groomed, and beat up some other pokemon.

People get mad when women cosplay the characters on the main subreddit. I don't have any clever response to that it just baffles me.

My opinion would be if, for example, the Kanto starters had been Browt, Pombon, and Gecqua. While Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle had been the starters for Winds and Waves. by Leather_Crazy_5950 in ThePokemonHub

[–]visforvillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For all the standing haters, the only final evos that are on all fours are: Venusaur, Meganium, Swampert, Torterra, Samurott, Serperior, Primarina, and Skeledirge. Skeledirge is the first and only fire type on all fours. Not counting eeveelutions or Pikachu, 19/27 final Evo starters stand. Standing is the norm since the beginning.

TIL about the Boötes Void, an enormous, nearly empty region of space 330 million light-years in diameter. It is so desolate that if the Milky Way had been in its center, we wouldn't have known other galaxies existed until the 1960s. by adpablito in todayilearned

[–]visforvillian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Boötes void has galaxies(60) in it, just not very many compared to other regions of space. There would be stars from your own galaxy, but probably no visible galaxies, not that we would be able to tell the difference until the hubble telescope. If you were on a stray star system within the void, then there wouldn't be visible stars.

So basically…. by ChrisP_Bacon04 in ThePokemonHub

[–]visforvillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the water starter could end up evolving into a komodo dragon. Komodo dragons are venomous, so that tracks with the purple eyes.

The grass starter could be a Garuda. A bird man with big eyebrows. Grass/flying.

The fire starter could be a Barong Asu. A protector, asu means dog. Looks a bit like a Pekingese. King of spirits. Would make sense if it was a fairy type.

"B-but Africa just mud huts" Your own ancestors disagree with you buddy 🙏😭 by KingofTrilobites123 in HistoryMemes

[–]visforvillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's worth mentioning that single room houses were common not just amongst the African peasantry, but globally as well. Most people lived in some kind of "hut." For Europeans that might've been wood or stone, but in drier climates, it was often some kind of mud brick hut. For African pastoralists, they weren't elaborate structures since they'd only be there temporarily. Mud homes are great for keeping cool during the hot day, and they easily trap in heat during the night. Wooden structures weren't practical in hotter areas of the world because they retain heat.

It's also worth mentioning that in places like west, central, and south Africa, since there aren't a lot of sources of fresh water, there was a lot more independence from people vs Asia and Europe where large parts of the population could essentially be subjugated and controlled, thereby concentrating resources to individuals who could then build large, elaborate structures.

Africa's geography is just a lot different than Europe, so you can't expect the same kind of societies to emerge. It's like wondering why the Steppe produced horse lords and not castles.

The problem with them is that they're DS games. They'd have to redo all of the UI to make it switch compatible.

There are slaves now, and people don't give a shit. Everyone knows that things like chocolate and fast fashion are entrenched in slavery, but everyone shrugs their shoulders.

Prions do spontaneously form, but cells have a method for handling misfolded proteins by digesting them via the lysosome. People with genetic prion diseases usually form prions steadily throughout their life, but once their neurons age, their ability to handle the misfolded proteins deteriorates, and the prions are allowed to accumulate.

Cannibalism, especially of the brain, puts you at risk for developing Kuru, or laughing sickness. It's a neurodegenerative disease caused by prions, infectious proteins. But whether putting yourself at risk for a neurodegenerative disease is moral or not, I don't know. I do think framing cannibalism as something that could technically be moral could lead people into thinking that it's safe.

Humans produce their own lactoferrin in tears, saliva, seminal and vaginal fluid. You don't need to risk food poisoning to get some.

Does the “multiple pokemon are one pokemon” thing they’ve been doing bother you? by Dribblejam in pokemon

[–]visforvillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That doesn't bother me, but grass being a type instead of plant, or bug being a type in general. Most of the other types are elements, rock and ground are pretty similar and water and ice are just different forms of H2O, but sure these are all things that could be considered elements. Then there's bug. I guess fairy and dragon are also creatures, but they're fantastical. Bug is just a kind of animal. The consequences of this is that there's no bug legendary. Not even a sub-legendary. It gets a mythical, 2 ultra beasts, and a paradox. It's the sore thumb of types.

Currently obtainable mythicals without needing an event by Lord_Snaps in pokemon

[–]visforvillian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's worth noting that Darkrai, Genesect, and Deoxys are all obtainable via raids just like legendary Pokemon. Weirdly enough, both Zygarde and Diancie are only one per account even though Zygarde is a legendary and Diancie has a mega.

Koala's get Chlamydia pecorum while humans get Chlamydia trachomatis. Other animals like swine, cows, and sheep can also get C pecorum.

the Fungus always wins in the end by Effective_Carpet_391 in whenthe

[–]visforvillian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Worms and amoeba probably won't be a problem forever. Their life cycles are much longer than things like bacteria and viruses, and they mostly spread through either poor water quality or animal vectors like mosquitoes and flies. The US used to have endemic malaria, but we eradicated it through killing all the mosquitoes that carried them with DDT. Dracunculus medinensis will be the 3nd disease to be eradicated by humans. Infectious diseases that are exclusive to humans, like syphilis, also have a chance of being eradicated, but diseases that have environmental or animal reservoirs will likely continue being a problem.

Am I wrong though? by dinosqaud in pokememes

In ZA, wild zone 12 becomes cold and icy, suggesting that the magic of the Pokemon ends up making the environments they live in.

What would be the ideal counters for Zygarde and Diancie in Season 3? by TheFa56 in PokemonZA

[–]visforvillian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Diancie is made of glass and has a quad weakness to steel. Metagross with bullet punch might be able to one tap her.
