I now we all clowned on games coming out before GTA 6, but now we live in a timeline where we're getting GTA 6 before a new Elder Scrolls game

Yeah, it is astonishing that you would use such garbage to make a low-effort slop game that nobody would want Truly astonishing indeed

See everyone clowns on it for being Mid, but considering it actually has good speed and real usage, feels more like an apology letter for the original Mega Wasn't really much use for that one, and now ever other person is using Chomp Z So yeah :v

Diana (or Dani) 🏳️‍⚧️ | Comms Open @dani-the-nerd.bsky.social · 6h

So weird how in Z-A, it's still preferred to run Chomp Z as mostly Physical In terms of Champions tho, probably one of the best users of Draco Meteor and surprising versatile in Special Attacks Being pure Dragon means it's no longer quad weak to Ice and really its weakest link is just Levitate

Took us many years to get that third game, but we got there, kinda That being said I chose the perfect time to replay this again literally today xD

I see a lot of people complaining about game key cards so let me tap the sign once more: they're used exclusively by third parties who would not be doing physical releases at all if GKCs didn't exist. it's not "GKC vs physical copy" it's "GKC vs digital only"

Also upset the plans w/Kale didn't pan out I blame the quad weakness he gets to Ice and just being frail >_>

Still love ya Raichu btw It just sucks Voltage does less damage to flyers and Mons with/Levitate unless Gravity is in effect :/

Anyway, here's the Team I put together Been wanting to make Dragon Cheer work for the longest time, and despite no guarantee for success, Chomp Z still hits hard Also switched out Raichu Megas, since as much as I loved using X for Electric Surge and Rising Voltage, it only got me so far

Diana (or Dani) 🏳️‍⚧️ | Comms Open @dani-the-nerd.bsky.social · 17h

I still maintain my hesitation and complaints with competitive Pokemon aside, cause there is still an aspect of luck and being paired with players as opposed to bots in the early Tiers Still wouldn't be upset if Wiwa just didn't have a competitive scene tho :/

Hey, so you know how I was venting before about how I'll do bad in Champions? Well another thing will happen when it feels like I'm ready to give up, I change my Team then I'm just on a winning streak again Granted I was Poke Ball Tier but whatever The love/hate relationship with this game I stg

Say what you will about Nintendo, but when it comes to physical media they care a lot more about Sony or Microsoft. Before anyone brings up GKC that many third parties are using or how Hyrule Warriors AOI/Pokepokia they are made by Koei Tecmo as developers.

Hell yeah Nintendo W But unfortunately there are still far too many people who think Nintendo themselves use key cards. They haven't used any yet (Pokopia, and Age of Calamity are Koei Tecmo)

Diana (or Dani) 🏳️‍⚧️ | Comms Open @dani-the-nerd.bsky.social · 22h

Yeah I honestly believe that's why the Wii U didn't sell well, the marketing was just bad and they REALLY did not know how to make them fly off the shelves Like it did have good games, but still wasn't enough to convince people to get a Wii U (even less so when half of them came to Switch)

Diana (or Dani) 🏳️‍⚧️ | Comms Open @dani-the-nerd.bsky.social · 22h

Can't say I disagree, never played WarioWare Gold myself, but I know people really liked it

Seeing a lot of people point out Game-Key Cards rn Here's the thing: That's only a small percentage of games on the Switch 2 rn and mostly ones that are developed by a Third Party (Pokopia and Age of Calamity included) Nintendo knows people want to actually own the games they play They're not Sony

Diana (or Dani) 🏳️‍⚧️ | Comms Open @dani-the-nerd.bsky.social · 11/10/2026

Never actually played or owned it so I can't say All I know is that you needed to scan an amiibo to play and there wasn't that many game modes

That's not to say the 3DS was a failure though, since the DS was really popular, but the 3DS only got so far considering one of the last games on there was a subpar remake of Bowser's Inside Story You know, a game you could easily play on your 3DS already because of backwards compatibility

And even though the former list had other hits like Captain Toad, Pikmin 3, and Luigi's Mansion 2, most of them were brought to the Switch cause they wanted these games to sell well on a console that people actually bought It was hard for them to sell us on the Wii U, and some never even got one

LRP: Rewatched Scott the Woz's Dark Age of Nintendo videos and he really hit the nail on the head how the 3DS/Wii U era was Nintendo at their worst Sure we got bangers like a new Smash Bros, Splatoon, 3D Land/World, Tropical Freeze, but we also got Sticker Star, Amiibo Festival, Zip-Lash, and well

Kinda crazy that people glaze Wii U era Nintendo nowadays because in hindsight its the most "we know better than you, our audience, what you actually want" and they didn't know better than the audience on what audience actually wanted.

When I came out as Trans 2 months ago, I was scared at first because of how I was unsure of my gender for the past few years since I was still figuring it out And even though I had the sleep paralysis, ironically the dream that followed made me surer than ever! Happy National Coming Out Day! :)

Experimental post: The Duality of Whacka In the Switch version of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Whacka can finally be fought, and has a suspiciously specific 108 HP. The game both offers a ridiculously simplistic explanation for this as well as a complex one steeped in Dharmic symbolism.

In Paper Mario, the original version of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, and Super Paper Mario, Whacka was just a harmless whack-a-mole creature that could be abused to get Whacka Bumps, extremely valuable healing items. After being hit enough times, the Whacka goes extinct, teaching the players the consequences of their actions. However, in the Switch version of Paper Mario: TTYD, he instead moves to the bottom of the Pit of 100 Trials and becomes an optional superboss with 108 HP.
He is fought at the bottom of the Pit of 100 Trials and has to be hit 8 times in order for the fight to activate.
but also
The number 108 is considered sacred by the Dharmic religions, such as Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism.
Whacka symbolizes karma for killing him in past games
ring the bell 108 times, per Japanese tradition? The ringing of the bell represents the 108 bonno-defilements of man..
Buddhism holds the view that there are precisely 108 temptations on the path to Nirvana.
Therefore, in order to reach Nirvana, every Buddhist must resist 108 earthly temptations.
With a combination of any of the elements of the above four factors, there are 108 ways with which the karmas can be attracted to the soul.
the earthly temptation to get those Whacka Bumps
There are 108 qualities of praiseworthy souls
Some people think that the human spirit travels through 108 stages, while others believe that enlightenment is attainable with just 108 breaths each day while in Intense meditation,
108 beads to awaken your inner light
Meditators count mantra repetitions with mala beads of 108, (100 counted for self, 8 for mistakes and for those who have not the opportunity to meditate in mantra)
108 breaths to return to your truth
108 mantras to dissolve ego into dever
108 steps from the self to the soul
The Sacred Meaning of 108 Temple Steps
the journey to Whacka is a journey of enlightenment

I remember SGB's rant about Chloe in Portal 2 how being "Perfect" isn't really a flaw And yeah, it's not Aside from my own feelings of her being unnecessary, I fail to see why she needs Fairy GodParents if she doesn't really have anything going for her other than being "Too perfect"

I think that's what I've been enjoying most about these replays, using Mons I've never used before and then doing better than I thought despite what people say about them Seriously, even Hypno when I revisited Leaf Green on the Switch was surprisingly strong

Golduck and Vileplume surprised me the most cause I see most people say they're kinda mid, but Golduck in White 2 (Current) and Vileplume in Let's Go really put in the work Yanmega was already good yet got me through some tough fights in SV's DLC Medicham in Shining Pearl (sue me) was pure Gas :0

So these past few months I've been going through a sort of mini-marathon of Pokemon (mostly to play as the Female Trainer since I'm Trans now and to get myself hyped for WiWa) and there's been some Mons I have used that I never really did before that surprised me for how well they held up

I will give that one CG show this, it at least looks competent because it doesn't focus on Timmy anymore and Fartman had no involvement You could tell the kind of "Writer" he was when he introduced Mpreg Cosmo or Ghost Tornadoes in Danny Phantom I swear, I wish I was making the former up :/
