Mainline Pokémon Games Based on How Buggy They Are: A Thread

Red, Blue, & Yellow

Pretty buggy. The Butterfree line set the stage for regional bugs and emotional trauma. Everybody loves Scyther. Inspired use of Cordyceps when designing the Parasect line. Kabuto and Kabutops should have been Bug to honor trilobites for founding Arthropoda. 8/10.

Gold, Silver, & Crystal

Yes, we had Scyther, but what about second Scyther? Scizor, Heracross, and Shuckle are legends. Game Freak decided to invite arachnids (Spinarak and Ariados) to the party, truly redefining what it means to be buggy. 9/10.

Ruby, Sapphire, & Emerald

This generation is loaded with bugs! Game Freak realized their mistake in not giving the Kabutops line Bug typing, making up for it with Anorith and Armaldo (who are based on Anomalocaris). They fumble the recovery, however, in not only depriving the Flygon line of Bug typing, but forever making them second fiddle to the Salamence line. The Beautifly, Dustox, and Ninjask lines introduce some interesting approaches to Bug-type evolution. Volbeat and Illumise are there. 7.8/10.

Diamond, Pearl, & Platinum

DELELELELELEWHOOOOOOP! A smaller collection of bugs this gen, but a well-rounded one. Vespiquen slays. Scorpions get some love via Skorupi, Drapion, and Gliscor. Writing this post is making me realize that slugs, snails, and nudibranchs like the Magcargo and Gastrodon lines aren’t bugs. We grew up thinking snails were bugs, right? Anyway, Yanmega rules. 8/10.

Black, White, Black 2, White 2

Game Freak’s magna opera. Truly the buggiest games there are. While you have to wait until Pinwheel Forest to encounter your first bugs, you’re rewarded upon arrival with Sewaddle and Venipede, the larvae of the Leavanny and Scolipede lines. From there, you encounter the Crustle, Galvantula, and Volcarona lines. Game Freak has some more fun with Bug evolutions, having Karrablast steal Shelmet’s armor as they evolve into Escavalier and Accelgor (inspired by the real-world interactions between the ground beetle family Carabidae and the gastropods they feed on). Durant is our first proper ant, and we get our first (and only . . . ) legendary / mythical Bug in Genesect. These games made Bug my favorite type. 10/10.

X & Y

A big step down from the previous generation. This game hardly has any bugs. Do you like butterflies? You get a butterfly. Vivillon is a lovely butterfly that comes in all sorts of colors, but SURELY there are more bugs than that in France. 6/10.

Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, Ultra Moon

Giant isopods! Diving bell spiders! Giraffe stag beetles! A true return to form. While the native bugs of Alola are great, we are also introduced to the ultra beasts, two of which (Buzzwole and Pheromosa) are really cool bugs. It seems they were going for wasps and bee flies when designing the Naganadel and Ribombee lines, but they don’t really work for me. Faint blemishes on an otherwise buggy generation. 8.5/10.

Sword & Shield

Centiskorch is the greatest Pokémon ever made. I have them tattooed on my arm. Blipbug is the worst Pokémon ever made. I see them in my nightmares. Interesting that they’re both Bug Pokémon, and that Game Freak really min-maxed with them. Fortunately, Blipbug evolves into Dottler and Orbeetle, who are great. Snom has a place in everyone’s heart, and Frosmoth is elegant as can be. 9.5/10.

Scarlet & Violet

I love Rellor and Rabsca! I . . . don’t really love the rest! Iron Moth and Slither Wing are great, but they’re nepo babies. Tarountula and Nymble are nice, but Spidops and Lokix leave something to be desired. Orthworm is a a big worm. At the end of the day, these games would be alright if they weren’t so wonkily coded and glitchy. Wish there was a better word for that. 7/10.

Lumity Fic Recommendations

I read a lot of lumity fics on AO3, and I was smart enough to actually start bookmarking them from the start of my time in this fandom, so! Here is a collection of just a few fics I adore.

out of the blue - by somewhereokay

This is more of Amity-centric fic, but there is an absolutely delightful and romantic chapter with Luz. It revolves around Amity recieving a call from Odalia for the first time in three years post-finale, and the emotional fallout of how Amity deals with that. I cannot recommend this fic enough. It is so well-written and has such a lovely conclusion.

She Wants Me (To Be Loved) - by Starry_Amaryllis

Hurt/comfort that concludes with fluff. Luz has a nightmare, and Amity is the softest girlfriend ever. If you also love nightmare fics and/or Luz struggling with her self-worth (that sounds mean but you know what I’m saying), then this is definitely a fic you should read.

there is a swelling storm (and I'm caught up in the middle of it all) - by gayestcatra

Set during the Thanks to Them timeskip. Amity watches a human realm thunderstorm with Luz, and she’s overwhelmed and transfixed by it all at once. The fic is a sweet conversation between them, but it’s fluff underlined with such a bittersweet edge, due to Luz’s mental health in S3 and her POV being heartbreaking to read. But, the good kind of heartbreaking.

Hush, my baby, do not cry - by jacepurr88

Luz sees Amity singing their baby a lullaby goodnight, and she’s very emotional about it. I don’t know what to say about this one, it’s just perfect, and probably the cutest domestic lumity fic you’ll find on the whole website.

Hello, My Old Heart - by moonlight_sapphic

If there was ever a fic to make you feel proud of Luz, it’s this one. It tackles her traumas and all the fallout from S3, but it also shows Luz taking steps to get better and confide in her loved ones, and I just!! I love it. The relationship between Luz and Amity is just a part of the fic, again - there’s soft moments here with Camila and Eda too.

Paper Stars - by lemonadeglaze (@fizzledlines)

I could go on and on about this fic but I’ll try to keep it brief. Set during the Thanks to Them timeskip, Luz can’t sleep and she certainly won’t ask for help. But Amity, Willow and Vee are going to be there for her no matter what. The lumity in this fic is adorable, but it’s also about the hexsquad girls all coming together to support Luz. And it’s a tough but very heartwarming journey over the course of the fic, and the ending makes me want to cry every time.

There they are - just six lumity fics that I think are all wonderful - I have many more I could recommend, but I’m keeping it brief for now. If you know any of the authors’ tumblr accounts please let me know so I can tag them!!

joseph joestar is so. he’s crashed four planes. became a real estate agent. he’s an objectively awful person. just a horrible, horrible man. got married at 18. cheated on his wife. faked senility when confronted with his bastard son and affair. loves his grandma. collects comic books. his first ever appearance is him beating up two cops. fought an immortal god inside an active volcano. he’s had to watch himself and his entire family before and after him lose their lives and childhoods to the joestar curse. likes weird al. he thought it would be funny to pretend be the man who had tormented his entire bloodline and killed any friend they’ve ever had. just as a little prank. tactical genius who can’t do simple math. died once but he was resurrected so it’s fine. his solution to killing a vampire was use tommy gun. and when that doesn’t work, use grenades

#not heritage post #mod talk #sorry guys. joseph on the mind tonight #does he need to be crushed in a hydraulic press. yes. does his role in jojo make me a little ill. also yes #part 2 #part 3 #part 4

So excited to start writing my post WAD Amity fic, because there’s just so much I could write?? Like as of the post-hoot it’s now confirmed that Alador and Odalia got divorced and the kids only see Odalia rarely. But how often IS rarely? Do they even want to see her or is it part of the divorce settlement? And what about all of Amity’s other relationships, not just her parents? What about that gigantic bear hug she gave Lilith in the timeskip - when the fuck did that happen? And how? What about the twins? And Willow? And Hunter? And Gus? And of course Luz? Amity has so many new people and rekindled relationships in her life now as of the finale, and I’m fucking itching to write about her navigating them all while she tries to find an identity for herself outside of being Odalia’s daughter.
