Pokemon Winds and Pokemon Waves has been announced! As always, this means the new starter Pokemon have been revealed! The games won't be coming out for another year, so there's no point getting excited about them yet. Because of this, I'll be talking about the new starter Pokemon today. There are three starters, and they are the grass starter Browt, the fire starter Pombon, and the water starter Gecqua. Browt is a chick, Pombon is a puppy, and Gecqua is a gecko. They're pretty adorable, and I actually like all of the designs this time. Other fans are also excited to see them, and I can see why. My favorite this time is Pombon, but they're all very cute. I only hope their evolutions don't ruin them. As always, here's a picture of the three new starters. Enjoy!

Why do Pokemon fans want to see a new Eevee evolution? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! For a while, Eevee was getting new evolutions pretty often. But since then, we haven't gotten another one in a long time. Despite this, fans are still hoping it'll happen. This is because Eevee is the evolution Pokemon. It's supposed to be able to change based on its environment, which is why it's odd for it to only have a few evolutions. There's still a lot of types that are available for Eevee evolutions, too. For example, there isn't an Eevee evolution for one of my favorite types, the ghost type. There are so many things that could be done with this Pokemon that it feels like a waste to stop with only a handful of evolutions. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

Why are otaku characters usually unemployed in anime and manga? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! Within this media, it's common to see characters who like anime or videogames without jobs. This is because in Japan, people who like these things are usually seen as shut-ins or hermits. They're often shown to be living off of family or friends, and they usually don't do anything; including chores or outdoor activities. There are some otaku characters that do have jobs, but they usually don't. This is a stereotype that made it all the way to America, since real life otakus are often portrayed like this too. But if anime has gotten more popular, why is this still a stereotype? Well, many people who say they like anime, manga, or videogames are either casual fans, or only say they like them to look cool. They don't actually see themselves as a fan, so they don't care about the stereotype. Others who are real anime fans see this and say "I'm not like that, so I think it's funny". Because of this, even though there are a lot of anime fans who aren't like this, no one really cares enough to change this common character trope. The unemployed otaku has become such a common thing to see in Japanese media that no one cares about it anymore, and it isn't seen as hurtful or disrespectful like it originally was. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's time to post! This year will be Pokemon's 30th anniversary, which means the Pokemon Company is already getting ready to celebrate. There's been new merchandise made for it, and the celebration has been talked about ever since the year began. At the moment, it's unclear what all is being planned for this year's big celebration, but I'm sure it'll be something amazing. I think this would also be a good opportunity for the Pokemon Company to surprise the fans with a new Eevee evolution. Fans have been asking for a new Eevee evolution for a long time now, so this anniversary would be a good time to release one. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's time to post! Now that the Resort Hotel has been available for a while in Animal Crossing New Horizons, I'd like to talk about it. Firstly, I get a lot of repeat villagers. I see the same villagers often, which can get boring. It's also very easy to see how repetitive the dialogue can get in this game. All of the different villagers say the same exact things as the other villagers of their personality type. With the constantly changing villagers, it gets tedious, fast. The villagers also just don't remember you if you've met them outside of the Resort Hotel. For example, if you make a villager a house in Happy Home Paradise, they'll remember you the next time they see you even if they're visiting your campsite. But if a new villager visits your campsite, they'll act like they've never met you and reintroduce themselves when they stay at the hotel. It really breaks the immersion, and forces you to meet the same villager twice. Talking to hotel villagers also doesn't count towards Nook Miles or anything, even if you already know them. Hotel villagers don't learn your character's name, either. All in all, the hotel feels incomplete. It doesn't really have a purpose at all. The villagers don't know you, they only remember you if they visit the hotel more than once, they'll never learn your character's name, and they don't even count as villagers. I don't know why the hotel is even there. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

Are humanoid Pokemon too strange? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! Some Pokemon fans complain about humanoid Pokemon for being unnatural or weird. They also dislike when more animal-like Pokemon end up with a more human-like final evolution. However, I don't think there's anything wrong with these types of Pokemon. First of all, Pokemon aren't animals, so there's nothing really unnatural about them. I can also see why some Pokemon end up more human-like, and a lot of them end up having nice designs. I can understand why some fans don't like these Pokemon, but that's their opinion. There's nothing wrong with the majority of the humanoid Pokemon we have at the moment. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!
