Ice Cream Sand Witch

If Gaia preferred Olivia to just let nature take care of the flowers, why didn't she mind a greenhouse or Nick making a temperature regulating machine? Aren't those also manmade? XD I look at the unrevealed leader silhouettes to try and guess their types, and I assumed this one was Psychic because of the hair (it kind of looked like the top right bit was floating or some kind of residual energy, but now I see that's part of the leader sprite to the right of her). So I was wrong for this one.

I've heard that eating food with a lot of potassium before bed like bananas or pizza can give you weird dreams.

Who's Miss Rainbow?

This is very helpful! I usually don't prepare my team until the leaders are announced in the room intro since I didn't want to prepare for someone specific when it turns out they're not there. Now I can prepare more in advance.

I thought the Black Foxes was going to be like an Aqua/Magma gang from Reborn type situation, but this is even way better!

I wonder if better AI means the leaders will switch Pokemon if they're at a disadvantage?

I think they meant the card key shard, which can be used in the current version to get shadow Beldum if you find them all.

Inverse puzzle sounds fun!

TFW you can't read your own handwriting.

About the story

This progress excites me. The Coral Ward one sounds like Shade is watching over a Happiny as its guardian angel. He looks ominous, but he really wants it to be safe and happy, and Happiny understands this.

I don't watch TV.

I haven't found one yet, so I'm happy to finally know what they look like It looks like a baby spider/ladybug hybrid.

In E15, there's actually an NPC in the Grand Hall that says she's been trying to contact a leader (Noel) for weeks but his caretaker isn't letting him battle.

Cold weather is easier to deal with. You can get less cold by using blankets or wearing a jacket or sweater. I don't know how you can get less hot. P.S. I almost accidentally typed "You can get less cold by eating blankets".

Sigmund was actually supposed to let them battle, but he didn't. Noel's gym arena was in the orphanage. If you talk to the machine outside it in E15, Ame says she didn't know Sigmund wasn't allowing battles.

My favorite scene in BW is when the gym leaders all show up and fight the sages. It was very disappointing to see the Gym Leaders go back to not do anything at all in XY after Gen 5 really excelled at giving them presence. Other than Korrina, I think the only Gym Leaders outside Gen 5 to actually do anything in the story were Giovanni, Jasmine, Clair, Norman, and Wallace (and Wattson if you include New Mauville). And Clair's role was to delay you getting a badge because she was too full of herself to admit she lost.

There was a while where I had some kind of "grudge" against Garchomp where I wouldn't use it just because it's Garchomp and no other reason. I'm not really sure what brought it on. Maybe a combination of difficulty against Cynthia's Garchomp + hearing about how godlike people online were saying it was in battle made me think I'd feel cheap for using it. I still haven't used it since Platinum's Battle Frontier but it's not because of that anymore, I just haven't felt compelled to use it.

Every kind except swiss (tastes like a person who's sweating profusely because they just finished exercising) and pepper jack (peppers). Cheese is almost as amazing as ice cream.

I was mentioned I really like Alicia's dress.

TIL the name of the move that changes the opponent's ability to the user's ability is Entrainment, not Entertainment.

TFW you change the names of the music you're using in Essentials and the game no longer plays music because the maps' selected music is still on the previous name of the songs so you have to go to each and every one of the maps and set the music again.

Johto, Hoenn, and Unova. Johto's atmosphere, Hoenn's environmental diversity, and Unova's bridges.

If this is related to what I think it is, I remember seeing that quiz on Youtube and the question about Shade's ipod made me lol.

Black Foxes is such a cool name.
