Heyyy happy birthday ECT
, i really really hope you'll have a wonderful day, you really deserve it

so... here's psobably a really stupid question. What happened to the Valentian Falchion after Gaiden/Echoes? Is it still there in the Awakening timeline? Does it have a new wielder? is Chrom's Falchion actually the Valentian one? Could Chrom's other child wield that Falchion? Could Chrom and Lucina dual Wield Falchions?

So here's a little rant that starts with a question~
Did the rivals in Pokémon become worse and worse per generation after gen 2? many people believe Silver and Blue to be the pinacle of what rivals should be. However, I disagree! From what I notice about those oppinions it's that those two are liked because their dicks to the player. However, That's literally all Blue has. Silver has a reason for it, but I wouldn't say it justifies it.
Ever since Gen 3 the rivals have had their own goals during their journey:
May/Brendan wants to have a fun adventure and help his/her dad with the Pokédex.
Barry wants to topple his father and proof that he can stand equal to him, but he's not to arogant to constantly be a dick to you. He will help you and ask you for help when needed.
Cheren and Bianca both have their own truths and ideals. Bianca wants to proof t both her father and herself that she can be a good Pokémon trainer while Cheren wants to become the strongest trainer of Unova and find out how that will help him.
Hugh wants revenge against Team Plasma and to reunite the Purloin that his late grandpa gave to his sister with his sister. Somehow he's seen as one of the worst because he "claims the story", yet you literally embark because he asked you to help him with this.
Selena/Calem is similar to Barry and May/Brendan, in that she/he wants to have an adventure with her friends and have a friendly competition.
Shauna, again, wants to have a fun adventure and make memories. Tierno wants to find Pokémon he can dance and have fun with.
Trevor wants to complete the Pokédex and potentially get over his shyness.
Hau wants to proof to himself, Hala and all of Mele Mele Island that he can be equal to and even better than Hala in a Pokémon battle.
Gladion wants to help Null see that not everyone in the world is as bad as Lusamin and protect his sister.
Now, compare those goals to Blue's:
Just pusing it in your face that he's better than you.
And then Silver, who hates weakness because he sees his father as a weakling and wants nothing to do with his father.
I won't say Silver is not a good rival here, but from what I notice people saying about the rivals in Pokémon, they always focus on "are they a dick to us? if not it's instantly worse that Blue and Silver." I've rarely seen or heard anyone talk about the goals the characters have, unless it's Silver and his father.
I would, personally, say that Blue is by far the worst rival. He's just a cocky show off that has about as much character development as Yugioh GX has characters that didn't have their development shoehorned in in season 4. He's just a cocky dick when you start and a cocky dick at the end. Literally no change. Silver at least learns the error in his ways, but Blue? he didn't learn a fucking thing.
Disclaimer: All the things I said about their goals is how I felt playing the games, I never looked any of it up.

I don't really think it needs to be a debate tbh. Blue was a jerk, but he may or may not have mellowed with age (we see a little of that in GSC, and again in SM (but maybe that's alternate dimension Blue...?))
The others barring Silver (but he had his own things going on, if Blue did it is not shown especially well in-game) were much nicer to the player, and that doesn't really affect their ability to be in a rivalry with you. It does mean that Blue becomes more memorable by virtue of acting differently though, but I won't say that makes him "better."
I think that's the main difference. Several of the rivals put together balanced teams, but some are limited by what's available in their respective games.

So... her's a funny thing... I had my whole team for Ultra Moon planned. BUT! then I remembered that one of the mons I had planned (Alolan Ninetales) is not available in Moon/Ultra Moon. The rest of the team planned is Primarina, Lycanroc (dusk), Vikavolt, Tsareena, and Bewear. So... anyone got a mon they could advise for that last spot?

So I've been thinking. Should I update the Bonnie Reborn playthrough once every week til the sprites are done? To which I'll be updating waaaaay more when I get them. Or should I just wait til their done? I wanna play through it so you all can read through it but it'd feel weird without having the Bonnie sprites. I'm fine with doing either. Just curious as to what you all would like to see.

Swift Swim Ludicolo with Life Orb is terrifying in a Drizzle team.

How much different is Fire Emblem Echos compared to Fates/Awakening? I'm considering keeping an eye on it, but I'd like it to be a tad bit different than Fates since i got kind of sick of Conquest (mainly because I had to grind on the EXP DLC) which is why I want to know if it feels "Fresh".
