@geckosquid, well, here's the spooky point.
Apparently the physical plane doesn't care what physics an object was born in, it simply needs the alchemical composition matrix to adopt a presence into this universe. Put in terms specific to the project, Pokemon created in a physics engine only need to pass through a specially allocated alchemical portal, then they're ready for import onto our world. Most of this is easy for any chaos elemental to arrange, effectively frame manipulation, and really is doable with finite spells, except now there's a very different evolution.
Me having all of this in my head pushes the envelope just slightly, to the point I can bridge evolutionary trajectories for any two kinds of universe. Me existing creates a service which is activated using a trivial (one word) spell, "potentiate." The conditions for activation include:
Find a creature in the wild realm
Produce the spell word
Conceptualize
The third step requires additional conditions I won't post this early in the project, for safety reasons.

For @geckosquid, @bergeronprocess, @boymagicalgirl, @neopolitansworld, and @amyfevernight
Dexter Thumbscrew
“Codename: Index”
Gender: Male
Affiliation: The Black Rose Mob
Signature Move: Time Attack
A flurry of blows whose peak in effectiveness changes from time to time.
Tom Thumbscrew
“The Smallest Thumb”
Gender: Male
Affiliation: The Black Rose Mob
Signature Move: The Thumbscrew Moblast
A black energy beam that personifies Tom’s willpower.
Mirai Thumbscrew
“AKA the Akiba Maid Warrior”
Gender: Female
Affiliation: The Black Rose Mob
Special Move: The Pure Maid’s Killer Kiss
Mirai always knew she was sweet. When she uses this move, she’ll try to give her opponent a kiss, and if she succeeds, she’ll stun her opponent and get a chance to pin them.
Stats:
Cunning: 8/10
Stamina: 7/10
Anime Song Knowledge: 9/10
Thorns: 9/10
Dexter, Tom, and Mirai are the 3 adopted children of the Thumbscrew lineage. Dexter’s the eldest at 17, Tom’s the middle child at 16, and Mirai’s the youngest at 15. They trained under the same mobsters that trained Mugsy when he was 8 and joined Yae’s Black Rose Mob when their training concluded. Dexter and Tom are the heirs apparent to Mugsy’s mob, but Mirai didn’t really care for gangster oriented things; she wanted to inherit Yae’s post in the Maid Cafe she worked at and, by extension, liked anime, granted that her liking of Akiba Maid War meant that her window of innocence is broken. Mirai’s general cuteness makes her the most popular of all of the Black Rose Mobsters.

My personal theory for why Arceus would send the DPPT protagonist in particular to the past was because they saw them deal with Dialga/Palkia/Giratina and just figured “Well you know how to deal with this, you can do it again.”

Three Houses/Hopes AU where Byleth still becomes the teacher of Shez’s class and just does not remember them.
Shez is going on about revenge and trying to fight Byleth and they’re just- “Great, your sword training should be enough for the class exam next week!”

My #1 post of 2022
I think the best way to look at Volo (and why I find him so funny) is that he's just some fucking dude.
He has no really defined backstory besides working retail and the implication he's seen some shit (which no shit he's in retail). He calls you his favorite customer when you can't even buy shit from him until the endgame. His main pokemon is an egg. There's a picture with him and said egg prominently displayed outside the photo studio.
He periodically shows up at random points just to remind you he exists. He finds you in exile and just happens to know the woman who can fix the situation. It is then that you are allowed to buy stuff from him. You're his favorite customer.
He tried to collect the type plates for Arceus knows how long and you just fall out of the sky and end up with 10 of them without even trying. You get the rest in probably less time than it took for him to research them. The exposition lady he just happens to know was using one of them as a cutting board. If I was in his situation I'd go insane too.
Once he's done trying to kill you he just leaves. He admits he got pokemon satan to isakai you and just goes. If he just chilled and didn't attempt to kill you he could've just given you the sidequest "Help Volo Meet God" and none of this would have needed to happen.
He has a themed toga under his clothes. I love this man.

Animal Crossing Fish - Explained #164
Brought to you by a marine biologist who is very tired...
CLICK HERE FOR THE AC FISH EXPLAINED MASTERPOST!
Work has just been kicking my ass. I could definitely do like a seal and just lay around until I’m hungry. Unfortunately for seals, they have to get into the ocean to find their food (I just have to walk to the fridge). Despite their large size and agility underwater, seals have to contend with the fact that they aren’t at the top of the food chain and need to be wary of bigger, scarier things (like killer whales and sharks). Now, you might be surprised to find out that not all seals are built the same way. Today I’m going to use Phineas as a great starting point to talk about pinnipeds - the seals, sea lions, and walrus.
Tumblr media
Phineas was an NPC in AC City Folk and New Leaf that gave the player things - either balloons or other cute toys or, in New Leaf, badges for completing some milestone. Unfortunately he doesn’t show up in ACNH, which is a shame, but understandable - Tom Nook now gives you all of your achievements and those toys are given out by Isabelle or some other seasonal NPC. 
Anyway, Phineas is definitely a sea lion, *not* a true seal, and I will explain. So, all of these sea-puppy animals are in the clade Pinnipedia, which means “fin foot”. Pinnipeds are closely related to mustelids - like the sea otter and river otters we have covered - and the two are closely related to bears. So, if you think seals are cute and cuddly, they are the first thing, but maybe not the second thing. They can be aggressive, large, and fast, despite how awkward they are on land, and they have very sharp teeth and claws on their flippers. Give them a wide berth if you see them at the beach. Pinnipeds can be split into two neat groups - eared seals and true seals (the walrus falls under the first category, but we will talk about them when we cover Wendell). As the names suggest, eared seals (family Otariidae, sea lions and fur seals) have ear flaps and true seals (family Phocidae) do not. 
There are also a great many differences between the groups, such as the way they swim and walk. True seals are much more adapted to the aquatic lifestyle than eared seals - their hind legs are held backwards and they cannot bring them under themselves to walk like other Carnivorans (the Order that includes lions, tigers, and bears, oh my!). So, to get around on land, they scooch about on their bellies. They are really great swimmers though and they collectively dive deeper than eared seals.

CLICK HERE FOR THE AC FISH EXPLAINED MASTERPOST!
I think this is finally where I’m going to throw up my hands and say right at the beginning that I don’t know what species these are. I would need a lot more information on these comb jellies than what the sprites give me, so we’ll have to make due with going through this group, as fascinating as it is, and learn what features they might have.

Animal Crossing Fish - Explained #170
Brought to you by a marine biologist and another we’ve done already...
CLICK HERE FOR THE AC FISH EXPLAINED MASTERPOST!
I’m totally fine doing fish we have kind of done already. I just hope none of ya are bored. Writing one of these only scratches the surface of information about that animal, and I try to pick a trait or behavior that I can expand on in general. Believe it or not, it’s only gotten *slightly* more difficult to find something to talk about in general...or maybe I just find every fish wonderful. Who knows...
Anyway, today I will cover two fish at a time because they are the same fish - the Red and the Black Wakin Goldfish!

Animal Crossing Fish - Explained #209
Brought to you by a marine biologist with different fish, same name...
CLICK HERE FOR THE AC FISH EXPLAINED MASTERPOST!
So, today we will cover the Silver Arowana, and I know what you’re thinking - gee, that sounds familiar. Didn’t we already cover the Arowana way back in like 2020 or whatever? And, yes, we did, but it was a different species, and I’m here to be wildly accurate and complete in my coverage of all the fish and aquatic friends in this franchise, so here we go!
Tumblr media
The Silver Arowana first appeared in AC Pocket Camp in June 2021 for Fishing Tourney 39 that featured fish named after precious stones or metals - so that tourney also included the Black Ruby Barb we covered just a few entries ago. The Silver Arowana is a mostly tropical species, native to South American rivers. So, it’s pretty cool ACPC released it in the summer. Makes sense.
Anyway, so we all know that there is a species of Arowana in AC New Horizons - I covered it already and found that one was the Super Red color morph of the Asian Arowana. Both the Asian and Silver Arowanas belong to the same Family of fish - the Osteoglossidae, or the bony tongues. The name is derived from a sharp, toothed bone at the bottom of the mouth that can grind against teeth at the roof of the mouth. The family is tiny, comprised of just the arowanas and arapaimas, for which there are only about 14 species. The arowanas are divided into two Genus - the Scleropages, which is where the Asian Arowana comes from, and Osteoglossum, which today’s Silver Arowana (Osteoglossum bicirrhosum) resides.

Animal Crossing Fish - Explained #155
Brought to you by a marine biologist and another fish tied to a legend...
CLICK HERE FOR THE AC FISH EXPLAINED MASTERPOST!
Figured I’d go with this “mythos” theme until I can’t anymore or I get bored. Whichever comes first, really. So, today I bring another Pocket Camp friend who’s gorgeous pattern may just be its undoing - the Achilles Surgeonfish.
Tumblr media
This is a summer time fish in Pocket Camp’s Saltwater Shores. It first appeared in July of 2018 and returned for the late summer to fall of 2019. Which makes sense. In real life, the Achilles Surgeonfish, or Achilles Tang (Acanthurus achilles) is a tropical reef fish, common around reefs throughout Oceania and across the Pacific Ocean to Hawaii. They are chiefly algae-eaters, grazing algae off of the coral reef, which benefits the corals immensely by preventing algae from smothering them. Just like it’s cousin the Regal Blue Tang we covered a long long time ago, the Achilles also has a sharp, scalpel-sharp spine by the base of its tail, helping to form the corner of the striking orange, tear-drop pattern.

Tagged by @shelbychild, who had me tagged in their post in 2019, even though I didn’t exist on tumblr until earlier this year, so I assume it’s another, nonetheless I accept your challenge

Last Thing I googled: pufferfish deflated, they look adorable
Favorite Musician: I don’t have a favorite I’m fine with listening to a variety of music
Song Stuck in my head: currently none though that might change
# of blogs Following: 19 blogs
Do I get asks: No
Amount of sleep: 10 but I usually get woken up by dogs for various reasons so the actual number is likely lower
Lucky Numbers: 3 because I’m a professional third wheel
Wearing: Panera Uniform, I’m writing this at work

Random Fact: The reason I call myself a professional third wheel is not only because I can’t find a date but even in my life I’m a background character, so I’m trying to roll with it and be more supportive to people.
Aesthetic: I’m a straight single white male in his early 20’s in search of love, purpose, a future and myself, all in a world where one wrong move can ruin your entire life. All while dealing with other things holding me back like my self confidence, procrastination and memories that make me cringe.

Would you do particle experiments in your bedroom if there was an affordable appliance which would let you do it?
Probably not. I’m a marine biologist, not a chemist or physicist. Too much math for me.
