Aha--no. Just in general. I've seen a lot of negativity--soooo much regarding the starters mostly. It's not surprising, but still quite sad.

YEAH I always tried SO hard not to look at fan art! They get me so excited. ; - ;

Ah! Of course. It's interesting to see people's tastes. Especially scrolling through tumblr lately--a lot of artists have so many different ways they perceive and convey a Pokemon. (Especially Alolan Persian. Help.)

EDIT: Can we talk about how catchy this song is? I love you, Pokemon. I love you.

LOL I have scrolled past it. I love it. Poor Alolan Persian. It needs to stop eating bees!

Though I do like how people talk about the way Alolan Persian is supposed to look "messed up" because real persians were bred like that. Doesn't make me want one on my team, of course... Alolan Meowth is just--too cool. But--Alolan Persian honestly--I can't wait to see the Pokedex for it.

Exactly! Instead of inflating its head.

I saw a interview with GF about how "ridiculous" a lot of Alolan Pokemon looked, and they mentioned that they felt like they should have a lot of fun with the designs for the 20th anniversary. I found that interesting.

Looks like all of the final evolutions have officially been revealed, haha. I am happy.

I really need to go preorder Moon now.

Aahhh, that most recent video got me so excited... I love the final typings of the starters, and I like the names they went with. I think my favourite is Popplio's final evolution since it just looks so graceful. Those Tapus(?) look really good too, and the ending of the video was a great last dose of nostalgia.

I really hope they'll continue teasing us more until release... One month left and I can't wait!

... And when Sun and Moon were announced, I didn't think I'd get them. Haaaa.

Decidueye's name always ends up making me bite my tongue somehow--
Though I'm torn between Rowlet and Litten. I am more likely to stick with Litten considering I wanted the cutie since the beginning, then just trying to breed a shiny Rowlet because the shinies are awesome--but we'll see. I can't wait for this game... I seriously can't wait. I have it completely paid for, too.

My kid sister and I are going to try to help each other complete the Pokedex since she's getting Sun..

ALSO older Red and Blue? They're like--20 now? I love it.

EDIT: The Japanese trailer shows a bit more of Cosmog--and can be seen here

My team will be a mess. I don't even want to think of how I'm going to form my team because it'll probably be completely different when I actually play the game. x: I'll get attached to Pokemon I never thought I'd like. SIIIGH.

Yup, I'm so excited too! The latest trailer is the one that persuaded me to pre-order a copy, haha. I'm so glad Litten's final evo turned out to not be fire/fighting.

And, as predicted, Inceneroar is a Heel Pokemon. So he IS a heel fighter! Good stuff. Good stuff.

That was meant to be the last reveal, right? I heard that somewhere but I might be wrong. I kind of hope it is--would be cool if they left everything else to be a surprise. BUT AGAIN, I have no idea where I saw it or if it was true.

REPLAYING some old games for fun. Pokemon White/Black are definitely my favorites of the entire series. The season changes are the coolest thing...

White/Black are my faaavorites. I recently beat Pokemon Red with no Pokemon above level 50... lol... Usually you only need 2-3 good Pokemon but I wanted an entire team. Caught Mewtwo and then worked on getting a Dragonite. Considering buying Yellow and playing that now, though.

Cause Decidueye is mah boyyyyy.
I didn't realize until a few days ago that Decidueye was Grass/Ghost. Ahhh, so excited. <3 I pre-ordered my copy of Moon yesterday.

I should be playing Yellow again on my 3DS- I never finished.
