The brain worm has set in and I’m now a Goodra. Uncoloured for now just because my colours aren’t set in stone yet but for the foreseeable future this is me
A pen lined traditional art piece showing an anthro Brionne standing underneath a dripping puddle of goo on the ceiling. She has her mouth open with her hands out as the goo drips on her arms, tail and on the floor The Brionne is now almost covered in the goo now with only part of her face, nose and tail showing. Her one visible eye is closed shut as she succumbs to the goo The Brionne is now a large anthro Goodra dazed and confused. Her eyes look like dizzy spirals as she flails around. One of her antennae even unwraps. There is most likely no way back and she’s now just a Goodra

Very simple. When posting an image if you click the +ALT button you can type in an alt text
An example screenshot to show how to add alt text. At the top of the image there’s a button that says +ALT that lets users add alt text

Shiny hunting is so fun. You can go from a 34050 encounter hunt to a 1/8192 shiny found after 519 encounters. Ivy knew we were deserving of an under odds shiny and this is *really* under odds
A photo of a light blue Nintendo DS Lite’s top screen playing Pokémon Soul Silver. The game is in a battle sequence in the Ilex Forest where I am facing a Zubat with my shiny Heracross named Honey as he was caught from head butt trees. Heracross is normally a blue stag beetle Pokémon but it’s shiny colouration turns him pink. Because he’s also a male Heracross he has a more sharp horn, had he been female he’d have a heart shaped horn tip

After 34050 encounters I finally got the damn Johto starter shiny. Little disappointed that it wasn’t Chikorita but I really like Cyndaquil so I am not complaining. Named him Eon because that’s how long it took to find him
A photo of a light blue Nintendo DS Lite’s top screen playing Pokémon Soul Silver. The game is at the end of a battle where you can see a shiny Cyndaquil who just levelled up to level 7. Cyndaquil is normally a blue shrew-like Pokémon with flames coming out its back but it’s shiny colouration turns it more of a coffee brown

Got my DS and Soul Silver (and HG too it just doesn’t seem to work). The DS runs fine but there’s a bunch of dead pixels so I have almost like a permanent fog in game. I ordered a second DS today before this arrived so hopefully I can put aside the issue for now and get it fixed later
A photo of a light blue Nintendo DS Lite playing Pokémon Soul Silver. It’s in the intro cutscene, this particular scene showing Ethan in Newbark Town. There is a white border around the scene that is not supposed to be there as these pixels have died Another photo from the game but this time in regular gameplay. Still in Newbark Town though. The focal point of this photo is an NPC that is in the white border. Some of their pixels are showing but it makes it look like they’re in fog. I was going to show this during a cutscene with Ethan and his Marill but I was too slow to take a photo then

I’ve been playing BDSP recently and got a shiny Wooper in the Great Marsh. That’s pretty cool in its own right but the strangest part was it had Mist listed twice. It was level 20 when I caught it
A photo of the summary screen when a Pokémon is trying to learn a new move in a Japanese file of Pokémon Brilliant Diamond. The moves from top down are; Mud Bomb (I think, the move animation looked like that) Mist Mist, again Slam And Aqua Tail

Over a month later and I can say welcome to the newest team member, Pony the shiny Venipede. Found after 161 encounters. Did a full 500 KOed brilliant method so about a 1/500 chance I believe. Now I got to get to Motostoke for a full odds gym hunt
A photo of a Nintendo Switch playing Pokémon Shield showing a shiny Vinnepede. It’s normally a red pill bug Pokémon, but it’s shiny form is a brown colour. Above is a black bar with its name “Pony” named because Scolipede, it’s final evolution, is often called a bug horse and this one is female A screenshot of a shiny hunting app. It shows the encounters taken to find my shiny Venipede. 161 encounters. An under-odds hunt as the odds are about 1/500

☁: Because Ivy's participating in Skunktember and most of the system is experimenting with new forms I've joined team Sneptember with a Chien Pao form and a must needed redesign. I do like my orange wool, but it didn't translate at all to this form
A bust of the legendary Pokemon Chien Pao, only pink instead of white with yellow glasses and pink runes. The tips of the sword are obscuring the bottom of the glasses Original sprite by @emmuffin.bsky.social Edit by us

Drew up a little skunk bust to celebrate #skunktember this year to pay tribute to my roots as a skunk. It’s one of the non-Pokémon forms I keep gravitating towards.

Also new art tag

A traditionally drawn bust of a green anthro skunk with a white snout, pink nose and ear skin (idk what it’s actually called, it’s the bit inside the ears), dark green hair tuft, and red glasses

Pokémon 4/16 finally caught. Hot Topic the Spritzee caught after only 181 encounters using the Brilliant Method. Next it’s battling Nessa to claim the 2nd badge and onto the Isle of Armour for the next Pokémon as I bought the DLC today funnily enough
A blurry photo of a Nintendo Switch playing Pokémon Shield with a shiny Spritzee on screen. Normally it’s a pink Pokémon but it’s colour is now a dark indigo, almost purple. The battle UI can be seen in the bottom right corner of the screen A screenshot from a shiny hunting app showing a shiny spritzee above a counter reading 2184, the amount of encounters it took to find it. The counter is black with white numbers and an ornate gold trim resembling the Scarlet and Violet books from Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. In the top left corner it reads; “Spritzee 8h, 36m, 53s 2s” The numbers followed by the letter means the total time was 8 hours, 36 minutes and 53 seconds, which is most likely untrue, and 2 seconds since the last encounter

Hunt 3/16 is done with a non-target. I was full odds hunting Budew as it’s a shaking grass encounter but found a shiny Bounsweet instead. Not complaining though, HRT is a great addition to the team! And I got lucky with an Adamant nature! And technically underodds too at 2184 at 1/4096 odds
A photo of Pokémon Shield gameplay on a TV showing a shiny Bounsweet, a small, pink fruit-like Pokémon who is spherical shaped with four purple leaves on top with a yellow underskirt-like design, on a dirt path with grass and rocks. The battle UI can be seen in the bottom right corner A screenshot from a shiny hunting app showing a shiny budew above a counter reading 2184, the amount of encounters it took to find Bounsweet. The counter is black with white numbers and an ornate gold trim resembling the Scarlet and Violet books from Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. In the top left corner it reads; “Budew 8h, 47m, 39s 0s” The numbers followed by the letter means the total time was 8 hours, 47 minutes and 39 seconds, which is most likely untrue, and 0 seconds since the last encounter A photo of Pokémon Shield gameplay showing the check UI for the shiny Bounsweet. In the top right corner it shows a Heal Ball symbol next to the Pokémon’s nickname “HRT” which is also next to the text “Lv. 14” saying it’s level is 14, and the female symbol in a red circle. Under this the shiny Bounsweet is shown. The left side of the screen has text talkings more about this Bounsweet, though the full text is cut off in the image. The full text reads; “This Pokémon is pretty Adamant in nature. We first met one another on 06/23/2025, and it was in the Dappled Grove! At the time, this Pokémon was Lv. 14. It has a sturdy body!”

Been having feelings of helplessness recently and the other day had thoughts of “What if I got isekaied?” Just me. My headmates staying here. It sparked a conversation with them ending with a fight with Cardamon and I. Her last words were in the screenshot
A discord screenshot from Cardamon. The text reads; “Fuck you Fuck you for being a selfish bitch I can hear that. “Oh, not in front of the child” I don’t fucking care You are being a fucking asshole, you know it. Do you really want my final words to you being this? I’m… I’m just gonna go let out some steam in the headspace. Don’t talk to me”

Hunt 2/16 is done! Squishmellow the Shiny Stufful caught in only 120 encounters with the Brilliant Method with 100 Stufful KOed, that’s a 1/1024 odds shiny!! Now I can beat Milo and start the two hunts before Nessa!!
A photo of a TV playing Pokémon Shield. A shiny Stufful is on the screen. It is a stuffed bear like Pokémon who is normally pink with brown legs and white accents on its face and ears but is yellow with brown legs and white accents on it’s face and ears A screenshot of a shiny hunting app showing the completed hunt of a shiny Stufful, a stuffed bear like Pokémon who is yellow with brown legs and white accents on its face and ears. It is on a black background with almost yellow lines resembling the leather of a binder A pop-up on the bottom of the screen says; “CONGRATULATIONS! Pokémon Stufful Encounters 120”

Choosing my starter now, going with Sobble A) because it’s my favourite, and B) in case I get the DLC I can get Popplio. Sad this one’s shiny locked though, but I could always breed a shiny
A photo of Pokémon Shield gameplay on a TV. A small blue lizard like Pokémon called Sobble is standing on a blue mat outside. A text box is on the bottom of the screen from the character Leon, who is off screen. It reads “That’s the Water-type Sobble. It adapts to anything, as surely as water flows”

Decided to replay Shield in the form of a badge quest hosted here on Bluesky. For each badge I’m gonna get 2 shiny Pokémon, maybe one marked. All I know is that for each shiny found I’m gonna keep everyone updated

Saw this interaction today on the topic of the influx of porn bots here. I’m sorry we talk politics here, the world is going to shit because of the right and we want to talk about it. We want to dog on Trump and not have Nazis attack us for it. I’m sorry your life can be apolitical, but not ours
A Bluesky interaction between two users who have been censored for privacy. The red user says “Hopefully funny people who don’t post politics” in reference to an above post asking what will come after the porn bots. The blue user says “I look forward to the day where I am not forced to talk politics on here because you are absolutely right. I won’t be blocking the funny”

Interaction between Akio and I last night
A Discord message log between a Zorua named Ivy, and a Vulpix named Akio. The message log goes as followed: Akio: “Ivy, get to sleep. I will try and get control just to get us to sleep” Ivy: “I know, I know, Sleep is important. Ivy: “We’re blinking a bit more rapidly, are you trying to take control?” Akio: “What did I say I’d do?” Ivy: “Okay, okay geez”
