^^they/them idiot who is overly obsessed with a group of eight niche characters from 2004. 'main' blog (mostly just reblogs rn lmao) is www.tumblr.com/thesilvercondor-main
'shes so responsible and mature!!' yeah thats because brandon just got possessed by an eldritch horror, spenser probably IS an eldritch horror, and greta is trying to PUNCH an eldritch horror in the face.
the bar isn't just on the floor, its falling into a bottomless chasm.
best kind of character is normal looking guy who is actually insane about everything but it’s drowned out by how insane everyone else around him is
Got inspired by this list of puzzles, decided to make my own.
Theme for this one is 'Trainers in Pokemon Emerald'. :)
(how to play: there are four categories, with four names in each category. so you click four names that you think go together, hit submit, and if they're all in the same category it'll take them out of the grid and tell you the category name :))
i double-checked everything, but if y'all find an issue with it please let me know asdf-
i was doing a battle rally yesterday, and i accidentally made darach so powerful that he offed himself.
he got one (1) super-effective crit on an opponent, and then immediately lost OVER HALF HIS HEALTH to recoil (instead of the usual ~5%). so even with his own healing and a shop-bought gradual healing buff, there was no stopping his rapid exit from life itself.
still got through the rally ok, but CHRIST darach. you were doing so well until that point lmao. o7
-Anabel is an adult here, Tucker is just Really Freaking Tall (sometimes he will also wear platform boots, as if he wasn't already tall enough)
-Both Salamences are also adults! Tucker's Salamence (Summerson) is naturally pretty big, plus it was reared really well so its just. O.O
-Anabel's Salamence (Sally) was the runt of his litter. He was also forced to compete in an underground fighting ring for most of his life, until Anabel lead an interpol raid on that ring (i think i've stolen that headcanon from Vergolophus; go check them out!). He's barely over twice as big as he was when he hatched, simply because he never had any energy to spare for growth.
-Salamences tend to be the same colour as the sky above them; so Summerson is a really bright blue, while Sally was a murky blue-grey for most of his life due to never really being able to see the sky. Now Sally is slowly getting more blue with each molt.
-Tucker's wings are mechanical; Noland made them, and Tucker made some decorative covers that can be slipped onto the frame.
-The wings can move around; the white notches on Tucker's fingers are connected remotely, and the way he moves his hands determines how the wings move.
-The same white notches are on his Salamence's wings. Basically, the two sets of notches measure how big the distance is between Summerson and Tucker while they're flying around during a show; if the distance becomes bigger than expected, the ground crew is automatically notified to get Tucker out of the sky now.
-bonus fact: Tucker would consider what he's wearing to be a 'casual summer outfit'. because clearly a glittery leotard and giant golden wings are 'casual'.
One thing I love about the Ultimate Battle is its *location*. They could've made a 'challenge' area, with Battle Villa and Ultimate Battles as two subcategories... but instead they put it in the side area with Sync Pair Stories. An area which up until now has been purely used for socialisation.
Really feels like Anabel finally got some free time on Pasio, and was told 'hey, you should go make some friends so you can team up with other sync pairs! :D'... and she decided that the best way to make friends was to commit homicide on anyone who dared to approach her.
