Question for the whole cast what’s your zodiac and what did your latest horoscope predict?

Rune: Our what?

Dielle: Ooh, horoscopes! I got this handled. Let me just look at this list that suddenly manifested in front of me... And then the horoscopes for today...

So Rune, we'll do you first!

Rune: Wait, hold on, you know my birthday?!

Dielle: Oh, no, I think this is just the day you washed up on the beach...

Rune: Eh, good enough.

Dielle: Anyway, yours says,

"Delays in accomplishing certain goals could have you feeling down today. You could wonder if you did something wrong. Chances are you didn't. The delays probably stem from poor communication. Letters and other messages might not have been delivered in a timely manner. Hang in there and continue to believe in yourself."

Aw, that's really sweet!

Rune: And a little too on-the-nose...

Inigo: C'mon, everyone knows horoscopes are just really generic so they could apply to anything. Like, lemme just grab this.

"Today it looks like you might not be able to attend a group activity that you've been anticipating. Other pressing matters may demand your immediate attention. This could prove frustrating. However, if you work quickly and efficiently, you might be able to make it after all. Budget your time carefully and get to it!"

... That's just a coincidence.

Malachi: Ooh, me next! Let me see!

"Today you might feel a little out of sorts, perhaps because of overindulgence from last night. You might be tempted to stay home in spite of other commitments. This actually might be a wise course of action, though you may feel better by midafternoon. Spend the morning relaxing and taking care of yourself. See what the rest of the day brings."

It's a little uncanny! I mean, I agree that it's probably just a coincidence. Isn't taking a break always a good idea?

Dielle: And now mine!

"Something you may have been expecting to hear for a long time could still be delayed. There's no reason to get too frustrated, as the delays are beyond your control. The best course is to find something else to do and let whatever you're waiting for come when it will. It hasn't been lost - it will come!"

Rune: There ya go Inigo, that's a random one that doesn't really mean anything.

Inigo: ...

Dielle: ...

Rune: Why isn't anyone saying anything?

[transfemswagbracket]

are people really mad about team rocket winning because its "just going oh gender!" because that is not true. vivian is canon trans but meowth was for nearly a decade voiced by a trans woman (maddie blaustein) that credited the experience to part of why she was able to come out! a significant amount of the votes towards team rocket will be a result of this (and the common man in a dress jokes around james, something that while intended as just a repeated punchline is commonly reclaimed by trans fans.)

YEAH no absolutely, couldn't have said it better myself

#i think every single 'fanon' transfem on this bracket deserves their spot and most have significant transfem readings #my friend's whole essay about the transfem coding in tavroses story #anne's 'I think the reason I don't want a new look is because I'm finally happy with who I see in the mirror right now' #hunter's story about being controlled for so long and eventually being able to escape that and reclaim their own identity #marco being genuinely intended to be a trans girl before disney said no #june's complicated feelings about having to grow up into her father's ideal of a Man and hating it for reasons she doesn't understand #mob apparently really envying a canon female character and wanting to be like her (taken from my spreadsheet ive never seen mp100 LOL) #hornet being the only gendered vessel and being called 'the gendered child' #jenny picking her name and wanting to be seen as a girl and hating her body and her old name #miku's general existence as an icon for all trans people #team rocket's constant crossdressing and meowth's voice actor #even the sillier ones or the ones that i don't understand cuz i'm not familiar with the source are like... who cares! this is just for fun! #transfemswagbracket #qna

[adobe-outdesign]

Thoughts on meowth and it’s evos/forms? I liked Galarian meowth until I saw that it wasn’t round and floofy and instead had a weirdly flat…beard

Meowth's always had a pretty nice design. It's based off of the maneki-neko (beckoning cat), said to bring prosperity and good fortune, hence the coin (koban) on its forehead and the payday move. I'm a big fan of lucky cats in general, so I'm already biased here, but I also like the design. It's nice and simple, I love the stylization of the whiskers and the darker points on the feet and tail, and the face is great as well.

My only big thing with Meowth is that it's always depicted as standing in modern games due to the anime... but it was supposed to be quadrupedal and only stand up on its hand feet sometimes. First, the games and anime are two separate continuities, so no reason to change it just to match; and secondly, it was something that made Team Rocket's Meowth more unique. The entire point of him changing to impress a girl is kind of loss when all Meowth are now like this by default, you know?

Also, it's weird that the ears are black but everything else is brown. I would've just made the inside the cream and the outside the brown for consistency. Other than that, this cat is free to steal my wallet any time.

A lot of Meowth fans don't like Persian (terrible name, btw; not only is not a Persian cat but that's also like, an entire country), and... yeah, I kind of agree, though I don't hate it. I do like big cats, and it does do a good job of looking like a more powerful Meowth.

However, Persian's problem is that it drops the most interesting elements from Meowth's design. The face is now just a generic cat face, the koban has been replaced with a generic gem (which I kind of get--gems are worth more than coins--but so many Pokemon have forehead gems that its not a unique element, nor does it have the nice framing with the forehead whiskers like Meowth's coin has), and the brown points are gone. Which is particularly weird because the original sprite had them, and I have literally no idea why you'd drop them, especially because the otherwise caucasian-colored skin makes it look bald:

I think I would've either liked to see it based off of another yokai cat--the bakeneko, maybe--or lean more into the maneki-neko theme more. Imagine a Persian that has deep golden fur or at least golden points, with red accents and tons of jewels all over the "collar", making it look like an absolute portrait of wealth.

And I'm not saying Persian is inherently bad--the imposing nature may be more appealing to many people than Meowth's more cartoony look--just that it could've stood to be much less generic.

I'm not a huge fan of Alolan Meowth. This is entirely personal preference, but I just don't like regionals that are basically just recolors of the original that change maybe one or two other things (in this case, the whisker direction and the expression). Given that shinies already exist, it just feels inherently boring when so many regionals manage to add a completely new, refreshing twist on old classics, you know?

Now on the plus side: I do love the blue color, and because so little changes, I still like it in the sense that I like Meowth. I just feel like it could've been more interesting.

In general, I just feel like a British Shorthair isn't the best choice for a regional. Why not go with a long-furred breed, which would instantly give it something to set it apart from the original, like how A. Vulpix's fluffier tales help keep it from being a complete recolor? Hell, go with an actual Persian cat and have Persian's name finally feel warranted. Speaking of which...

what is this.

Okay, so the good news is that it's not a complete recolor this time, and the blue fur looks so, so much better than the skintone color of the original, so that's great.

However, the execution of this is very botched. Here's the thing: British Shorthairs have jowls, which go to the sides and under the head. Here's a good shot of what I'm talking about:

You can still see the regular cat head shape, with the fat going under the head like a double chin. By making the entire head perfectly circular with no indication of the muzzle like this, it makes the head look swollen, like it tried to eat a Beedrill, rather than simply round and fat.

The other problem is that the body is that of a cougar, while the British Shorthair has domestic cat anatomy, and is generally much stockier. You needed thicker, shorter limbs--almost like a tiger, if we're talking big cats--rather than Persian's regular anatomy. Combine that with the out of proportion head, and it looks ridiculous, and not in a good way. If the anatomy was better--either more realistic or way more cartoony--I might've really liked this, but the botched execution ruins it for me.

I have no idea why there are British Shorthairs in Hawaii instead of the England region.

With that aside, I do like G. Meowth quite a bit. First, the viking theme is fun and distinctive. The ears and points on the body finally match (yay), and the long Norweigan Forest cat-esq beard is good... in theory. However, Gamefreak's terrible texturing and modeling makes it look less like a furry beard and more like a lump of fat, which is just unpleasant.

Also, I feel like the entire body, once again, should have been long-furred. That's the only way the beard works the way it's supposed to. With that said, however, I still like this a lot (with one other caveat--see below).

Perrserker is also great, even more so than G. Meowth. The helmet and the horn ears look great (though I think the points on the helmet could've been removed and the horns moved up to make the ear thing clearer), the awful neck fat illusion is gone in place of a much clearer beard, the sword claws are a great touch, and the colors are great, especially with the pop of orange the eyes add.

However, here's my big problem with this line, which has nothing to do with the visuals or even the theme--it shouldn't have been connected to the Meowth line at all. There's no thematic connection here; the closest I can get is that Meowth hoards coins, and vikings plunder, so maybe that's what it was going for? But it's just too disconnected, and the extreme visual differences, combined with it evolving into Perrserker instead of a Persian regional, make it feel disconnected. As far as I'm concerned, G. Meowth could've been dropped entirely, and Perrserker could've been a fantastic non-evolving new Pokemon; just get rid of the koban coin and change the tail shape and you're good to go.

So on the plus side, it's a much more interesting Meowth regional than the Alolan version. But on the minus side, it's also too different, and feels like it's forcing a unique concept onto the Meowth line for little reason instead of embracing it as its own thing. Still, I'm glad it exists regardless.

What I'm not glad exists is G-max Meowth. For god's sakes, Meowth already had a regional, now you're giving it another regional and a g-max form in the same generation? This is getting to Charizard levels of ridiculous!

But with that aside, I also just... don't see the point of this one. It's a meme. There's no theme or deeper connection, it's just a nod to the longcat meme. The Bulbapedia trivia literally has several sentences to explain the other forms and OG Meowth, while all it says for g-max Meowth is that it's a meme.

I point this out because not only does it make this shallow, but why not give it to a different cat Pokemon? We have tons, and it works just as well for any of them; and like I said, Meowth definitely doesn't need anything else.

Now the good news is that I do like some of the visuals. The large glowing eyes look cool, I believe the koban has been increased in value on the head, which is neat, and the symbol on it is a nod to the writing on the coins carried by lucky cats. It's also hilarious, because the 'dex claims that "The pattern that has appeared on its giant coin is thought to be the key to unlocking the secrets of the Dynamax phenomenon"... but from what I understand, it just says "big". The secret to the Dynamax ability (shouldn't that be g-max? whatever) is Big. That is hysterical.

So basically, overall: Original Meowth has a good design and a nice theme, but Persian is a bit too bland for its own good. Alolan Meowth is also too bland for my tastes, while A. Persian is a hot mess due to the anatomy. G. Meowth is pretty decent but I hate the beard rendering, Perrserker is great but should've been its own Pokemon instead of a regional, and g-max Meowth Exists. That's a lot of Meowths, right there.

Wobbuffet and Meowth friendship headcanons:

In the beginning, Meowth really didn't like Wobbuffet.

He was LOUD and ANNOYING and he only talked one-liners so he probably also was STUPID

And well, Meowth usually doesn't get jealous over the other Team Rocket Pokémon (because they're only Jessie's and James' pets while Meowth is their friend, right?) but Wobbuffet ... he starts spending so much extra time with them. Which is slowly getting him extra attention and love from Jessie and James. Plus, then he KEEPS STEALING MEOWTH'S LINE IN THE MOTTO

So yeah. He's definetely very jealous of Wobbuffet at first. Scared he'll replace him.

Until he slowly starts to realize that ... Wobbuffet is being nice to him???

It's because of the motto that Meowth first notices. Because it's becoming more and more of a problem and then James suggests - why don't they both have their own line, seperately? And Wobbuffet immediately likes this suggestion and he asks Meowth please, please, can we do it like this? Asking him for his opinion. Respecting that it is his choice.

Meowth doesn't immediately give in, it takes a lot more begging from Wobb and James convincing him that it wouldn't take away but even add to his line. However, he does start to realize that Wobbuffet might actually ... respect him a little?

And Wobbuffet DOES! How couldn't he? This Meowth is spending so, so much time with his beloved trainer and they're all so good friends and they all understand each other so well and they're all so unique and Wobbuffet wants to be a part of that!

Also he really, really, really thinks that Meowth's ability to speak is amazing? Due to his curious and friendly nature he could never even consider thinking of Meowth as a freak. No, he is impressed and curious. But he's not the talk-active kind, so he doesn't ask more about Meowth, he just waits. Which he is, obviously, pretty good at.

So their relationship starts with Meowth suddenly starting to talk to Wobbuffet. First just things he is interested in. And he realizes: Wobbuffet listens. So next he starts speaking random thoughts. And Wobbuffet is still listening!

It takes quite a few weeks until Meowth trusts Wobbuffet enough to actually open up to him. He complains about his love life. Mentions certain fears of abandonment.

From the outside, he seems pretty calm and random when he does this. And he doesn't really tell Wobbuffet how much him listening means to him. But Wobbuffet sort of knows.

They generally don't really talk about their friendship but at some point they're absolute besties and Meowth knows he can tell Wobbuffet absolutely everything.

Jessie and James are super confused about this happening because they still remember them fighting all the time very well. They also have no idea how much they talk (or well, Meowth to Wobbuffet). But they'll realize eventually.

Wobbuffet also helps Meowth find his place in interaction with the other Team Rocket pokémon.

He got along quite badly with Arbok, Weezing, Victreebel and Lickitung. They didn't respect him - but that was largely due to fact that he just straight up was not nice to them, treated them as lesser

And he did that because of his stupid fear of not being liked

But Wobbuffet was like. Hey, Cacnea and Seviper and co. actually think you're pretty cool! Be friends with us all!

And it worked.

I realize that in other headcanon posts people also talk about what Wobbuffet gains from Team Rocket. That they make him happier, make him learn to speak his mind and be himself, let him feel fulfilled..

I could talk about that more but from my perspective, Meowth's and Wobbuffet's friendship is something that especially Meowth gains from. And is that so bad?

Oh but one thing that Wobbuffet definetely does gain is an over-protective friend. Call Wobbuffet stupid and Meowth will throw himself at your throat and scratch your eyes out

All the hype's died down but I do have two funny ideas as to the identity of the parent(s) for the main girl of the next Pokeani:

- She's not Ash's kid she's his half-sister and the reason Ash's dad is never home is because he has a second family in Paldea

- It's James and Jessie's kid which explains why she chose a cat Pokémon as her starter

#pokemon #pokeani #ash ketchum #ash's dad #team rocket #team rocket jessie #team rocket james #the first one was just a funny thought that will never happen #the second tho... #after carrying the anime on their backs for so long it's what they DESERVE #also real talk ash gifts their kid with the barette because he visits as uncle ash #pikachu and meowth relax on the porch whenever there's a visit

Im choosing to headcanon Ash as being at least 15 in Pokemon journeys no matter what they say. Every time he meets a character from an older season they mention how long its been and like yeah its Pokemon they arent thinking about it that deeply but Im choosing to do that because its fun and Ive grown attached. His characterization has changed a lot since the start of the original series in the 90s when everyone is kind of a jerk to each other because it was the 90s and Contrasted in Journeys he seems a lot more mature and learned and its cute to see him help his friend Goh out like hes this seasoned veteran (which he absolutely fucking is at this point as a child prodigy and CHAMPION of Alola, a fact hes too humble to talk about unless asked). Hes definetely not older than 16 but also this kid has travelled half the world and thats as far as you can push it assuming each new generation took anywhere from 6-8 months I think for his growth and dynamic with Pikachu to have developed like it did that has to be about right? As a consequence of the two of them being global icons for marketing they seem to not be able to do any wrong which is funny but I suppose it makes sense if youve travelled and met as many people as they have? Ash is functionally an adult at this point and knows more about not only Pokemon but other cultures than any given person in the room and it doesnt seem they try to hide that in Journeys because frankly it would be silly to do so at this point. They want to make callbacks to the original series then they have to acknowledge how much hes done throughout the anime and they kind of dont shy away from it which I think is cool?? Its rare but when it happens it feels super tongue in cheek Like just casually bringing up in conversation hes been face to face with several legendary Pokemon even studied professors have never even seen *proceeds to eat an entire dinner table because hes a shonen protagonist* I love ash. Hes such a good boy. I might just be biased because I genuinely adore the Pokemon anime for what it is but I think hes a very believably matured child/teen character ......so long as you dont take Nintendos word at face value. He is not 10 years old no matter how you look at it lol

#this of course would make jessie and james at least 30 which is. hrm.. not a terribly favorable thought but I can see it #then theres the whole can of worms of how aging works for pokemon. i like to think of ash as an adult being something like a maestro #or even showman personality/semi prodigy and pikachu would be long gone by then #meowth would be old as fuck and still alive though it feels right. he would outlive all the other pokemon except maybe wobbuffet #pokemon #pokemon journeys #thoughts #ash
