nerds are like “ugh mr mime is so creepy in the detective pikachu trailer” like they expected a cute mr mime??? mr mime. mr mime???? live action mr mime being a terrifying imp is the most accurate pokemon in the trailer why are y’all shocked.
Mr. Mime, aka Ash Ketchup’s real father, is a horrible scourge upon this earth. He is dreadful and hideous and this is the first representation of him in his true form. Don’t look away from him you cowards this is only the beginning
me age 7: this pokemon is named cupcake becos its random and cute
me age 12: this pokemon is named
Petri, named after petrichor, the name for the scent of rain. a close second was Nimbus, named after nimbostratus clouds in which rain forms. i was very tempted to go with Proteus, a greek shapeshifter who ruled the sea, but i realized that would be more fitting for a pokemon with a stronger attack stat. i researched these names endlessly and they took 2 hours to come up with.
me age 15: this pokemon is named sleepy becos he looks sleepy
Me at 26: this Pokemon is named ‘oh shit! he’ so when they use an attack it says: “oh shit! He used double slap!”
i had a dream i went to nintendo and they revealed to me that all this time the real pokemon designer was this Russian guy named Vladimir Pokemondesigner and i asked him why he named jigglypuff that and he said “is puff. is jiggly. are you a jokester?” and crushed my head like an empty soda can
