I purchased a pre-owned Pokémon Y to replay on my 3DS, and it turned out that the previous owner hadn't deleted their save file. Thanks to said person for making me laugh with the hilarious nicknames they gave their Pokémon that I now feel compelled to preserve on the Home app. #Pokémon

I somehow have a better mobile phone data signal on the edge of the Stockholm Arcipelago at sea than I receive in most of the UK mainland.

Silly, round and/or cute/goofy #Pokémon designs are peak. I don't make the rules, but I do enforce them. Never, ever evolve a Spheal under any circumstances.

I often clown myself when playing Dead By Daylight, but I just pulled the most galaxy brain move in my 5k hours, narrowly escaping death in what may have been the most stressful match I've ever had as a Survivor. To say the stars aligned is an understatement. #DeadByDaylight

I'm somewhere from 1 - 3 on the intimidating scale, but between social anxiety and an autistic struggle with eye contact, there's the risk of a misunderstanding.
quote this with how intimidating YOU think you are on a scale of 1 - 10 and let other ppl reply to it with how intimidating THEY think you are >:)

Every now and then I'll face the most wholesome Killer in a Dead By Daylight match, and we'll end up roleplaying in the game. It's a breath of fresh air after a series of sweating tunnellers and campers.

It's so cool when the Pokémon TCG cards do stuff like this. Also, SPHEAL! @secludedsfx.bsky.social

When your partner goes directly from working from home to having the world's longest naps and he calls you the lazy one. 🤨

I'm forever an "object Pokémon" design defender, especially where Ghost-types are concerned. Let's not pretend Generation 1 didn't do it first, not that it was ever a bad thing. They're based on a type of yōkai from Japanese folklore, which is PERFECT for Ghost #Pokémon.

Being a pixel art enjoyer in a world dominated by photorealism isn't easy. The latter has its place (gritty survival horror games especially) but I'd love to see a mainline HD-2D #Pokémon game. There's something charming about modern takes on retro graphics and art styles.

The move over to Bluesky has been cathartic. Best decision I've ever made for a New Year's resolution.

My unwavering special interest since as early as i can recall might be evidence that Pokémon autism is a very real thing, and I wouldn't change it for the world. I love this franchise. #Pokémon #Autism #Nurodivergent
