Pre-Orders for PokeDogs: A Dog and Canine-Themed Pokemon Zine open TOMORROW! And what better way to celebrate than with a reveal of our paw-fect dog-filled cover by Peregyr!
every gym leader is like “I lost!?! UNBELIEVABLE!” buddy you live in a world where every ten year old child has always been offered a free fire breathing monster at least once and you brought nothing to this fight but anthropomorphic flowers
gym leaders’ whole job is to provide a specific challenge, a battle of a certain type and difficulty level. if you’ve brought the tools and skills to complete that challenge, you’re going to win by design. the pokémon in that battle are probably not actually the strongest pokemon they have.
when gym leaders go “argh, how could i lose??” they’re acting to give your victory legitimacy because you’re 10. they’re like a villain cosplayer letting a baby knock them over. they’re being nice!!
Riolu was the first pokemon classified as a “baby pokemon” that was introduced in the same generation as its evolved form. All the other baby pokemon introduced up to that point, such as Pichu and Munchlax, where pre-evolutions to existing pokemon.
