Was it your first time fighting the guy?
denynamax: (uhh)

[personal profile] denynamax 2022-10-18 08:37 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. I'd seen his team before when they had their little bash in the diner, but I didn't know who he'd pick.

The fact he didn't send out Machamp pretty much means he was tryin' to be sporting and give me a fighting chance.
nailedthelook: (People love to talk about others.)

[personal profile] nailedthelook 2022-10-18 04:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Is that his best one or something?
denynamax: (' - ')

[personal profile] denynamax 2022-10-18 06:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I don't know that. Every Pokemon has its natural weaknesses and advantages. Obstagoon is Dark and Normal type, so he's doubly vulnerable to Fighting types. And Machamp is one hell of a Fighting type.
nailedthelook: (I make my own show.)

[personal profile] nailedthelook 2022-10-19 07:43 am (UTC)(link)
Oooh, got it.

So it's just built into them...

Wait why is normal a type?

[ Looks at Obstagoon, this is a normie?? ]
denynamax: (: l)

[personal profile] denynamax 2022-10-19 07:46 am (UTC)(link)
...Dunno, he looks normal to me.

[This is just a regular guy. A homie. #normcore.]
nailedthelook: (Everyone who provokes me.)

[personal profile] nailedthelook 2022-10-19 07:48 am (UTC)(link)
... Are you sure 'punk' or 'rock' or 'visual kei' isn't some kind of undiscovered type?
denynamax: (o_o)

[personal profile] denynamax 2022-10-19 07:50 am (UTC)(link)
.......I have a Toxtricity with the ability Punk Rock...
nailedthelook: (Ya'll can keep blah blah.)

[personal profile] nailedthelook 2022-10-19 07:57 am (UTC)(link)
That's probably close enough.

So how do you go about training him?
denynamax: (on my last nerve)

[personal profile] denynamax 2022-10-19 08:10 am (UTC)(link)
That one was one hell of an ankle-biter before he evolved... Like taking care of a baby, if newborns had poison sacs. Cried like hell if he wasn't being held all the time, so that was months carryin' him around everywhere... Always spat up his food and pulled my hair. Sometimes I'd fall asleep with'im on my chest and wake up with paralysis.

[EXTREME SINGLE MOTHER FLASHBACKS]
nailedthelook: (Nothing too special.)

[personal profile] nailedthelook 2022-10-19 08:25 am (UTC)(link)
... That does sound like a rowdy son...

[ This also feels like it explains? Something??? ]
denynamax: (sigh)

[personal profile] denynamax 2022-10-19 08:29 am (UTC)(link)
He calmed down once he got bigger... plays bass in my band now. I don't know if I could hatch another Toxel at my age, though......

[But said like, if there was in fact another egg that needed taking care of, he would roll his sleeves up and become a beleaguered Mom again]
nailedthelook: (I'm talking to myself.)

[personal profile] nailedthelook 2022-10-20 08:41 am (UTC)(link)
And how old are you?

[ How much energy do baby pokemon have?? ]
denynamax: (head scratch...)

[personal profile] denynamax 2022-10-20 08:54 am (UTC)(link)
....24.

[he looks, like, ten years older. exhaustion has truly aged him.]
nailedthelook: (Don't bring me down.)

[personal profile] nailedthelook 2022-10-20 09:02 am (UTC)(link)
... I guess age really is about how old you feel.

[ Pat pat the tired old mom man. ]
denynamax: (:'l)

[personal profile] denynamax 2022-10-20 09:06 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I was still taking care of my lil sis back then. And working at the Pokemon gym. It's hard jugglin' work and a baby.
nailedthelook: (Your look is so distinctive.)

[personal profile] nailedthelook 2022-10-20 04:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Wait like... a literal human baby? Aside from the pokemon one?
denynamax: (idle tug)

[personal profile] denynamax 2022-10-21 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
No, baby Pokemon are... well, some Pokemon are fully capable after hatching. But some species have a baby form that still need nurturing before they're able to battle or be independent - like human babies.
nailedthelook: (Everyone's busy looking for me.)

[personal profile] nailedthelook 2022-10-21 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
[ Pokemon are wild. ]

... Why are only some babies??
denynamax: (... cannot believe)

[personal profile] denynamax 2022-10-21 06:03 am (UTC)(link)



They're mysterious creatures, I guess.
nailedthelook: (Attention wherever you go.)

[personal profile] nailedthelook 2022-10-21 06:21 am (UTC)(link)
You don't know either, huh?
denynamax: (lift hair)

[personal profile] denynamax 2022-10-21 07:13 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think anyone out there knows everything. We're still discovering new phenomenon every year.
nailedthelook: (Loving what I see.)

[personal profile] nailedthelook 2022-10-21 07:21 am (UTC)(link)
Like new kinds of pokemon? Or like weird stuff happening to the ones you know about?
denynamax: (wait what)

[personal profile] denynamax 2022-10-21 07:29 am (UTC)(link)
Both.

[i don't know how to convey that suddenly fairies existed and have always existed but also new pokemon are discovered every year along with new battle gimmicks and--]

At some point it's impossible to keep up...
nailedthelook: (Your useless courtesy.)

[personal profile] nailedthelook 2022-10-21 07:42 am (UTC)(link)
That sounds so annoyingly tiresome.
