My blog blackkatmagic is kaput and staff apparently have ceased to exist, so I’m starting over. Hi there! Blackkat from AO3, staking out another spot as the Titanic sinks. Let’s see how this goes.
one of my favorite things about the pokemon universe is how the humans are esp. the bad guys
like mob boss giovonni can pull out a glock and waste my 10 y/o ass but he doesn’t he just accepts that i knocked out his cat and hands me money
I have my own theory that humans in the Pokemon world don’t even have a concept of direct violence. They settle all disputes through Pokemon battles, but also a human without pokemon is entirely helpless. This might lend its self further to the notion that humans can’t venture outside of towns without bringing trained pokemon to protect them. Like, can Pokemon world humans even throw a punch? I think the notion of humans ever directly using violence against one another without pokemon involved is something they can’t even think of.
In one of the movies ash just straight up clocks lucario
ash is innovative in a world where humans can’t punch
*steeples fingers* okay so I know this is a humorous fun joke but like…
Let’s think about this for a moment.
Mob Boss Giovanni probably has a gun. Given the level of technological development in pokemon’s universe it’s very unlikely that nobody invented gunpowder or ever thought to put it together into a weapon, or that Giovanni would procure one.
Let’s also assume the average ten-year-old bright-eyed pokemon trainer is not wearing a bulletproof vest, or has particularly impressive gun dodging abilities.
Giovanni shoots child, Giovanni probably dies immediately.
… i had not considered the MAD implications of pokemon.
i mean, when you think about it, the only thing protecting that entire world from rampaging monsters is that the monsters really like to be friends with people.
The most absolutely loony toons part of this, except for all of it, is that there’s no way to tell which posts have been flagged except to go to your blog’s post page on the dashboard and just…. scroll forever.
Hey, Tumblr? I’ve been using your site for nearly a decade. I have over 57,000 posts. I can’t get through October before your site starts to freak out and lag from all the loaded posts. Just tell me what’s flagged.
