[front-facing-pokemon]

Yes, Honedge!

Something i'd like to point out about its face:

It doesn't have a goofy face, the holes in the scabbard just make it look that way. In reality, it just has a single eye.

With that in mind, could you please do a version without the scabbard?

iiii figured this was common knowledge enough to not warrant an additional form, but alright:

some of the guard disappeared but it's okay. i never even saw that part of the scabbard as a face—the blue eye is very obviously an eye. i don't know if anyone actually thought that was its face. however, i do find it interesting that even after removing the scabbard textures, it still has textures for that "face" remaining:

which implies it's a face more than anything i've seen of the matter before this point

anyway there's so many asks in the box right now so let's just go through all of them:

in order from oldest to newest, here we go:

this is true. most of the models are shiny, unless they have a "colladamax" variant

ahh it's fine. i considered it might have been a request but i also doubted it considering pangoro was literally next so i assumed you were just excited. me complaining about requests was unrelated—another ask i got around the same time

well then maybe it's not a bad thing. you certainly phrased it like one, it seems, but that might just be unfortunate connotations with the way you said it? glad we could clear up the confusion i guess

we do need more snakes, but i also like the bipedal pokémon, as a furry. back when everyone was begging sprigatito not to stand up, i saw through their thinly-veiled furry hate and was begging sprigatito to go against the grain and stand up anyway. and then they did and now meowscarada is one of my favorite pokémon. get fucked, normies (i am sorry for saying this)

↑ i didn't know this until i looked it up! this is interesting. stuff like the male version learning misty terrain but the female version learning more type coverage. this is very strange but i like it. only girls can use magical leaf and charge beam sorry boys

thank you! i can explain it. it is because pokémon are getting very close and staring at you as for the inspiration for this blog, it was mostly snivy. i remember one day thinking that snivy's big nose would make it look very silly from the front, and being like "damn. someone should compile a list of what every pokémon looks like from the front. damn. that would make a good tumblr blog bc some of those would be really funny. damn. i should do that" and then i did. but that was back in 2020—pretty soon after i ended up starting college which didn't allot me a lot of time for updating this blog, and although i kept swearing i'd go back, somewhat soon after that i went through a breakup and just wanted to take a while for myself. a bit after that, tumblr user sewatari reblogged one of the posts on this blog again (the weedle post, i believe?) and singlehandedly revived this blog by reminding me that they still cared about it. and that's fucking awesome?? tbh?? so thank them for this blog's continued existence. if you scroll waaaayyyy back far enough in the archive, you'll probably see that miniature saga. the images back from the first gen and onwards were a little bit icky as i got grips on how to actually go about this blog and manipulate the models in the right way to get them to work, which is why i can never really recommend folks scroll all the way back in the blog, but it's a look back into my own personal history, i suppose

apologies for breaking the magic, although i don't think anyone keeps up with the "i am a pokémon taking real live pictures of other pokémon with the camera right in their face" lore because no one pays attention to the backgrounds of the images (which used to change much more than they do now, but that's just because no one ever noticed or pointed them out. the background is not the focus of the image—it's the pokémon itself; thus, why look at the background? staging the pokémon in a setting used to be important to me, but now i don't worry about it and cycle between the same few backgrounds) or the asks, really. it's the commentary in the tags everyone comes here for, of course

she's a fully-grown woman with a house

then you'll love the top of this post

they probably wouldn't think it looks like anything because they aren't familiar with what honedge looks like so they would just picture nothing in their head. or they would just make up what they Think honedge might look like based on its name, or something, and then imagine that front-facing

i don't know which one of these is the real one. but we have some discrepancy here. also apparently this is a wider-spread belief than i thought

OKAY. i think that's all of them. if you read all the way here to the end, that's. powerful. for those of you who stuck around this long, i'm live right now with a test stream having some breakfast and playing pokémon. come join in, if you're bored this morning!

edit: it's over but i'll probably do it again some time, more likely at a more reasonable hour next time. considering the idea of doing a fully voiced pmd series—perhaps that'll be the next stream. or i'll leave another test one for it. who knows!

#not pkmn #nose ratings #extremely long post under the cut #i missed a few days of these so you're getting them ALL at once #the test stream probably won't be anything interesting btw. so you're not missing out if you don't show up #probably. who knows what i'll do. maybe i'll queue up the next set of pokémon live on camera. or maybe i'll fail at some tera raids #or maybe i'll find a random full-odds shiny in sv. or i'll go shiny hunting or something. y'never know!! #also fun fact apparently if you edit a tumblr post with a readmore‚ it moves the readmore down every time you edit it #why? no idea

pokemon scarlet and violet can be really niceys to me sometimes

#shadow talks #the bottom pair + stantler were completely random encounters i stumbled across while trying to get enough dex entries for the perrin quest #all found within the span of 2 hours. #while poliwhirl was the first and only other phase on my hunt for ducklett who shone up almost immediately after #all full odds<3 the next targets are timburr and maybe sewaddle #and then if i still have time before the second dlc ill go back to gen 5 to try for golett/golurk and blitzle/zebstrika.. #way lower odds though so i dont expect to actually accomplish this and will instead just use the regular forms in the dlc team #6th member/starter replacement is ogerpon btw love her #shiny pokemon #pokemon #OH and the duckletts name is moneta and stantlers is garland very important info

Reasons You May Have Missed a Shiny:

It ran off of a cliff before you could tell whether it was shiny

It spawned inside of a cliff

It spawned behind you while you were setting up a picnic

It despawned because you accidentally crossed the border of a city while trying to get close enough to tell if it was shiny

It despawned while you were fighting a Pokémon that just materialized in front of you without warning

It despawned while you were being swarmed by Tauros

You got warped away from it because you triggered a cutscene 50m away

The shiny form looks identical to the regular form because you are colorblind

The shiny form IS identical to the regular form except for 4 pixels that are a slightly different color

Arven

#pkmn #pokemon #pokemon scarlet and violet #shiny pokemon #shiny hunting #al rambles about pokemon #i guess the last one is the same as getting warped away? #i just thought it would be funnier that way #actually i don't remember what happened in that one #it didn't happen to me. i just saw a video of a guy about to catch a shiny and then they got a phone call from arven #it might have still been there after the call but the video ended right when the call started #i try not to think about this too much #only when i'm actively shiny hunting a specific mon #if i knew how many full odds shinies i accidentally missed i wouldn't be able to play the game #oh i forgot to hit post lol #my post

Shiny Trubbish found at 4871re! This was found after phase 3 and a nice total of only 7272re which is insane!!!! This hunt has been very kind to me!

Under the cut is more rambling and phases.

The previous phases of this hunt were Solosis and Minccino both under 2k each.

This hunt was also a part of my bingo! So I’m moving on to new targets!!

Summer has been so busy and I really want to make a recap post! So perhaps soon I will do that! Take care everyone and good luck with all your hunts ❤️❤️❤️

#This hunt has been an on and off one for like years #I just never hunted it #but now I have her! #shiny trubbish #trubbish #shiny hunting #shiny pokemon #full odds shiny #pokemon

phase 1 for swadloon! took roughly 3,000-4,000 encounters, i'm unsure how many exactly as the number on the back of the trainer card counts double battles as 1 encounter (and the games froze a couple of times in the middle of hunting....😓). still nice to have a short hunt after how bad my luck in these gens has been outside of safari week

#shiny pokemon #shadow talks #the swadloon (if i get it) will be going on my indigo disk team along with the timburr and ducklett i already caught + a future golurk #with the last members being hearthflame ogerpon and either kingambit or zebstrika. depends #it'll probably come down to how long it takes me to get swadloon and golurk. since hunting full odds in sv is really fast lol

SOULSILVER BADGE QUEST SHINY #8

I named him Morsel <3 Extremely relieved to find this shiny after 14 months of hunting. Mind you this wasn’t done religiously, as I’ve been quite busy with school, but it was a long time coming nonetheless!

I’ve always been pretty flexible with my approach to shiny hunting in BQs, and Tyrogue being my target for Claire despite having already beaten Claire over a year ago is a funny example of that! And since I don’t plan on doing the Kanto part of SS in the conventional BQ way (it has taken me THREE YEARS to get to this point and I need to be reasonable), this should be the final member of the SS BQ!

I might hunt a quick MM Magby before though to cover Kanto and because I really want a shiny Magmortar in 4th gen. Maybe.

#i wasn’t even hunting one… #i literally Don’t shiny hunt i just kinda wander around and if i get lucky then cool! but i’d never go out of my way #i did intentionally go check out this mass outbreak but not because i was hoping for a shiny #lol i just Wanted Some Turtwigs for research task purposes #peachy’s re:pla #full odds shiny let’s go!!!! #<- i love that ‘full odds shiny’ is a tag apparently lol. people are just really excited to flex #first time i played pla i found only one shiny and that was a haunter #wouldn’t have been able to tell if not for the sound and sparkles #i don’t even remember if i was able to catch it in the end but i know i tried #that was in postgame so. not quite full odds #but no shiny charm so
