So what is so taboo about the Embrace Pokemon?
About a week ago I made a discussion about "Would you drink a glass of water from a water Pokemon" due to working outside that day and the heat from the summer season barely went away and felt like it was still there.

I got a comment about someone asking if it the discussion safe to talk about said Pokemon but they deleted their comment so I didn't know who it was. But I did took a screenshot of it on my notifications due to wanting to make sure I was hallucinating due to working outside in the heat a lot and the effects started to take a hold of my mind.

...And due to upcoming possibly? disappointment game called Legends Z-A is coming out on the 16th of October for some reason costs like a regular $60 game on the switch one but still costs more on the switch 1.2.

So if you're like me and any other long time Pokemon fan you'd probably searched up your one your favorite Pokemon on the internet due to having access to it makes you look at all the wonders of technology has to offer.

...You know what happens nowadays if you or someone you know who is new to the internet try to search a favorite Pokemon without having a very strict search filter.

I wouldn't blame you for liking the popular green and white humanoid psychic then dual fairy type Pokemon as there are many various reasons on why people would like it. Unless your that one gooner that got into Pokemon because they looked at NSFW of it who shall not be named.

Cause up until Generation 3 there was very limited selections of Psychic type Pokemon to choose from as many of the best ones... are affected by many downsides like version exclusives, areas that you ignore due to having a set team in the late game, trading ingame, what kind of team you're going for.. and the satanic roadblock that is trade evolution cause **** you for playing alone you with no one to trade you dumb little sh*t.

Then when the mostly water region came out a lot of players finally get a Psychic type that doesn't require you to trade and can be obtained anywhere early during the beginning of the game.
...And when leveled up to at least 6 the green hair? with a red spike on it's forehead can do some pretty impressive damage when it starts using confusion and it is very helpful against Brawly if you ain't using the tiny brave? swallow or a seagull that jumpscared every kid that picked a tiny fire chicken with the super effective sound against them.

Blah Blah Blah I don't need to tell you how similar journey/playthroughs go... eventually the green with a red spike on it's forehead found the draft concept of a movie about a penguin that tap dances instead of singing... and got so happy it evolved into a happy dancer with psychic abilities that has a problem of fainting from being tackled hard.
Then eventually at level 30 it evolves into what is supposedly supposed to be a ballet dancer or a knight.

...You probably know what happened next when the rise of the internet.
Cause eventually someone thought it looked like a human female and said...
"What if we gave it human features?"

Blah Blah Blah... something about the rules of the internet... Here we are today reading about it and talking about it on platform on it's discussion forum similar or akin to 4chan except if it was run by people who are a bit more responsible...

Yet somehow makes some people afraid of talking about this said specific Pokemon when we had more Pokemon released in the future that may as well made more furries while also ruining a cool bipedal dog that shoots blue spheres like if it's a cool shonen anime about warriors fighting more and more deadlier threats.

So what do you think about the Embrace Pokemon?
Are you afraid to talk about it due to being heavily judged by others even though it's human nature at this point to judge others and whether or not you make a big problem out of it.
Or do you still like this Pokemon despite all the drama that it has caused people to stay silent about because of... well... the internet :depresso:.

...Or you can just say you really like this Pokemon a lot and you'd probably buy like about 1-6 $449.99 (including taxes) life sizes plushes of it to fill your degenerate fantasies cause the loneliness epidemic sucks.

Really like to know what you guys think about this Dual Psychic Fairy type Pokemon that can able to read people's emotions and can understand them as if it's like an actual human being... oh so that's why they call it a wai-.

I didn't even need to type it's name once throughout making this discussion and I bet you already know that I'm going to put onto my team cause it's popular for good reason... Along with picking the blue happy crocodile eventually becoming a badass crocodile as my G.O.A.T. in a place that is inspired by... French. :spycon:

some people would die if you tossed an open water bottle on top of their head. the propaganda used to hide this turned into anti-oral-sex propaganda, then the 'sex is the lowest common denominator and thus the origin of all emotive phenomena' theory became really popular with the same group of people who didn't experience these feelings.

somehow this made the question of motorboating a magikarp to give it "experience," say using some kind of vibrating wand that simulates fighting or w/e, a strongly forbidden topic.

as I recall the embrace controversy was due to an unconfirmed rumor that its hair looked sort of like a blue hedgehog circulated. after the hippo to crocodile thing this was considered potentially harmful to allow, so an attempt was made to can it based on an untrue rumor.

Clankers.

If you think this is long.
You'd probably never read a book with only words and no pictures that you can bare.

I wouldn't recommend reading Twlight though.
Cause dear lord I rather read The Great Gatsby than go through that mass of paper.

thats right. MAWILE, and mega mawile. the best pokemon!

that said even after reading this i have zero idea what the "embrace pokemon" movement is. i am guessing it is a retaliatory movement from the recent drama surrounding stolen art for pokemon TCG cards, and peoples wishing to remain loyal to the brand.

i do love pokemon, but gamefreak (and nintendos treatment of pokemon in general) is usually awful, and sometimes even predatory.

35 is the cutpoint for females. I mean for a man who wnat to make family.

Women are good all the age, just saying if is man seeking family to make, 35 is the cutpoint

If Pokemon are real, then I should think everyone would be consuming them accidentally/incidentally regularly without even knowing.

I assume you played Ruby and the remake Omega Ruby right?
Cause if I recall correctly Mawile is a Ruby version exclusive and Sableeye is a Saphire exclusive.

I didn't find a use for Mawile until it gained it's dual fairy typing.
...Cause why use Mawile when you can get a Metagross in the original GBA games.

Then when XY came out with fairy typing to balance the dragon types it changed a lot of things.
Meaning Mawile is the second Steel Fairy type. The first one is Klefki since... fairy didn't exist in gen 3 originally.

Omega Ruby was still awesome though despite no battle frontier.
...I grew up with Emerald. Then chose Omega Ruby as my remake choice.

Unfortunately my steel type of choice in generation 3 is an Aggron. Cause it looks cool.
...Despite it's many major weaknesses.

...It doesn't change the fact that it still sucks that they removed Mega's in Gen 8 and 9.
Though I will admit you liking a Pokemon based on a old at this point Japanese legend about a woman with two mouths.

Is pretty on brand and in character of you.

...That's a thing? I just typed to talk about why Pokedex No 282 is so controversial to speak about sometimes on the internet... when there's now literally a Pokemon that's just a flat out a flamingo.
It's like Seel being a Seal with a horn all over again.

...By the way Flamigo's are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ demonic and will chase you till the ends of the earth if they spot you or until you're far away from their aggro range.

Also i'm not starting a movement? or unknowingly became a part of already existing one? I just wanted to talk about it that's all.

...Yeah. That mostly the reason why Nintendo and Gamefreak is started to become hated due to them not wanting to actually innovate and work when they... basically dug their own grave.

Like seriously you're gonna tell me you went all out on marketing, world crafting, going beyond the limits of the games by showing an a long time anime on what battles are like without the limitations of game mechanics, many spin-offs that vary from creative and innovative (ironic) to not so great or very weird like Pokemon Channel for the Gamecube.

...And now you're doubling down and decide to get lazy after realizing why work hard when you can just rely on merchandising (like the $450 life sized plush I mentioned.) and gullible idiots to buy the more disappointing and lackluster games. (I didn't buy the gen 4 remakes on release cause... they suck and legends arceus was more fun despite having a terrible story that makes Sonic Adventure lines look like shakespeare.)

All we can do now is hope.. that they lose the patent lawsuits and receive harsh punishments and backlash to learn that you cannot just bully everyone into submission simply because they are making a better lemonade than you.

Cause if it did then Square Enix and Chunsoft called. They want their creature fighting rpg pioneering royalties back.

Anyway have a good day.

I think beyond "insert pokemon" is my starter i don't think you should go much further, since mostly there is not that much to it, it's a forever kids franchise.

Even the games with impossible puzzles, were a touch of bs just to have people purchase the magazines or whatever else. I could respect the games more if there were viable clues in game but at this point is mostly nostalgia talk. And please don't mention the IVs farming because that's part of why i consider the Pokemon community the nerds of today.
