You!

Scrapping a drawing is the worst feeling ever uuugggghhhhhhhh

The fluffy doc! So pretty!

Then no, they don’t turn on each other ^w^

Is a brief argument about being baited count as turning on each other…?

Oh definitely, this time the douchebag baited the both of them XD

There’s a surprising lack of it, sadly unu

Mhm mhm! ^w^

Love it when that happens! :D

If I were to briefly describe my Heroes and Partners’ bonds with each other from each game…

RT: Ratchet and Clank, love to chill
Explorers: Literally raised a kid, hecka lesbians
Gates: Sam and Frodo, friendship so strong they’d die for each other
Super: Soulmates, power couple, playful banter

Happy Zeraora Day! Have some reposts of this guy I made!

I need to draw him more, got a story concept outlined, but no name to give, *sigh* ~w~

Amazingly friend shaped~! :D

Nooooooo ;~;

Grass snake!

Heck yeah! I read it for the first time a few weeks ago, and I’m quite excited to see more! ^w^

They can be grown and farmed, no reason why varieties can’t exist ^w^

Well they’re called LOOK-alike Items for a reason…

Besides, you can tell apart by touch for at least one of them, it’s like the difference between a Fuerte and a Hass!

Aww, Audino!

I think you did pretty cool with the Sheriff! Make me appreciate how sharp you make the fur ^w^

Gosh, really??? I’m so glad you thought it was! ^w^

Oh you’ll love passportout, it’s a game that’s just a drawing this

“Take heed, fellow Explorer! For the most common Lookalike Item is named the Oren Berry! These resemble the humble and reliable Oran Berry, but be wary! Should the berry have an unusually rough texture, a miscolored leftover stalk, or smaller dimples on this skin, you’re holding an item of such strange mimicry! Should you be desperate or distracted enough to have an eager bite into an Oren, your maw will be filled with the most painful assault of bitterness on your taste buds! The effects can last up to a few hours, which can be quite unfortunate if you happen to get hungry in the meantime! “Unless you want to prank your friends, it would be better for disposal or recycling!” — Empoleon’s Explorer Essentials to the Grass Continent

“To heck with throwing Oren Berries away! I’ll take them off your paws cause apparently none of you Explorers figured out you’re not supposed to eat them raw right off the ground! Only a proper chef like me can correctly use them! Mmm… just thinking about using them for preserves and desserts is making me drool… It’s been a while our last expedition to the Grass Continent…” — Swirlix of the Expedition Society

I might’ve referenced something irl for this! Do you know what it is?

A Pokemon Mystery Dungeon illustration of a guide distinguishing Oran Berries from its Lookalike Item, Oren Berries. The Footprint Runes say, “KNOW YOUR OREN BERRIES”

“Should you be desperate or distracted enough to have an eager bite into an Oren, your maw will be filled with the most painful assault of bitterness on your taste buds!”

It’s a shame Lookalike Items were only in Explorers, would’ve been a fun thing to deal with! Extra lore blurb in the thread!

Excited when you do! It’s more nice here!

Mail Tail sounds so cute!!!

I know, but it’s as pretty as ever and I still love it!

If you don’t play Gate again for some reason, I’d like to see you Hero and Partner talking to Ampharos on the big hill with the tree from Super, it’s another neat night scene! ^w^

Gates, either when Partner tries to wish Hero back in the Hill of Universal Order, or the times when various characters are on Post Town’s hill. I think you’d really make a pretty starry night!

Almost suggested Hero and Partner in the Forest of Shadows, but you already did that one ^^;

I drew a birb, became the most popular thing I ever made on tumblr, and I’m pretty sure I’ll never reach that a second time

Not gonna lie, The Final World does remind me of something…

Hydreigon from Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity saying, “When I realized that, I began to broadcast my plea into the dreams of humans…” #pmd #gatestoinfinity

Hydreigon saying, “… in an attempt to find our hope in the human world.”

Hero thinking, “(At night this scene still sometimes appears in my dreams.)”

Sandile saying, “Ah? So it wasn’t the big sleep or nothin’?” Why substitute dying for a term like that? Aside from keeping an E rating.

Gates thought! Gen 5 had a fixation on dreams (Dream World, Dream Radar, Pokepark 2), but I think PMD did something special with the idea.

First, humans are summoned through dreams, and that’s only said in Gates. Second, it ties dreaming… and death. Probably unintentional, but why did Sandile say…?
