I just went through your entire tumblr! Good job! So much improvement! And such dedication! If you still take suggestions, how about Fluttershy playing a musical instrument?
A~nd, a lot of them are poorly done, or a waste at a cheap joke, or ruined by loud garbage that has never, not even in the height of youtube poops, ever been funny. The real draw to a channel like this is the raw quantity of videos. Good golly!
This one’s great too, if you stop it at the 2:35 mark before it does that loud, distorted crap.
2) Super! Can’t wait to try it myself! I’ll make a tumblr/Ponyville crew!
You know… when it goes on sale or something…
Hey Professors! So, I saw the ask about the move Toxic earlier, and I was wondering if you had any ideas on the move Protect? Almost every pokemon can use it, and I was going to say it could be a defensive stance that absorbs the blow in most cases, but it is always portrayed as some kind of blue wall. Would it be connected to Aura? What do yall think?
Both in the games and in the anime, Protect is depicted as glowing blue energy of some kind that keeps the pokémon safe. The protected pokémon does not feel damage, receive status effects, and so on from being hit. And it is presumably not just a solid wall, so this tells me that the protection, the blue glow, is exceptionally good at absorbing energy.
Capacitors, for example, absorb electric energy. Springs and sponges absorb kinetic (collision) energy, lessening the damage that way. Or perhaps Protect acts more like a Non-Newtonian Fluid (but more like a plasma), which becomes “solid” in the spot that they’re hit, when they’re hit.
So that’s what Protect is. It’s some sort of plasma, which is exceptionally good at absorbing all kinds of energy. The Aura energy, that you mentioned, is described in the pokemon world as “the essence of every living creature”. If Protect is connected to Aura, it would make sense why pokémon have so many diverse types and move. The very living essence of them is able to store all types of energy. It would also make sense why Protect loses its potency after consecutive uses. If the pokémon are using their own life energy to fuel their shield, it’s only natural they get tired.
Thanks!

This is super cool!
1) Wow! Thanks! Gosh it’s been a while since I’ve got a message like this. Sometimes I feel like nopony really cares anymore.
But yeah! Thanks!
2) Lyra: I can do a rear hoofstand for days, but I can’t do a fore-hoofstand.
Bon-Bon: I can! It’s easy! Tada!
Lyra: That’s great, earth pony.
Tootsie: I can do one too! TA-DA!
Lyra: What? But you’re a-
Bon-Bon: Ou! One-hooved!
Tootsie: Me- Woah. Me too!
Bon-Bon: Good job, Liza!
Lyra: I can see when I’m not needed.
Bon-Bon: One-hooved pushups! Liza do not try this. Tootsie: Okay! Bon-Bon: One! Two! Three! Fo-
1) [Sounds of Laughter]
Bon-Bon: Oh go dunk your head…
2) I’d heard the word before. Is it just sped up house/trance? That’s kinda weak.
3) Lyra: I do have a little kickstand up there with my horn, don’t I? By all accounts it should be easy, especially considering how big pony’s heads are. But no, I can’t.
Bon-Bon: I have in the past, and I’m sure I could now, but I’m not going to risk neck injury over it.
I made you and Bon-Bon in the XCOM 2 character pool.
In case you’re unaware, XCOM 2 has a new feature called the character pool, which lets you create characters in advance so that they can show up randomly throughout the campaign. Depending on how you set them to show up, they can be soldiers, scientists, engineers, and even “anti-VIPs” that you have to capture or assassinate in certain missions. It also lets you save characters you create in the main game so they can show up again in future playthroughs.
So far, you’ve appeared as one of my starting soldiers and became a sharpshooter. I admit I’ve done some savescumming to keep you alive. Bon-Bon has yet to to appear.
Lyra: Cool! I didn’t know you could do that! Can you, like, delete all the default stuff and replace them with all your own characters?
Bon-Bon: Aw, you even got my name. And I like that coat color!
Eyes and ears, scribes… You’ll have to excuse your minstrel. This evening the only music she hears from within are war drums.
I would pose a query. A minuscule survey, if you’ve a moment. Pray, tell me, who among us has an article on loan from the Library of Griffondria? Show of arms.
A book or scroll. Show of arms, scribes.
Really, scribes? Not a one of you? I’m disappointed scribes, but not surprised. After all, the Library of Griffondria was BURNED DOWN SIXTEEN HUNDRED YEARS AGO!
Hissssssssss!
Oh yes, scribes! Those self-indulgent gluttons have revealed to all the true colors of their flag! Perhaps some of the gardeners’ plants can grow back from the fires. But our supplies? Ash. ASH!
Hissssssssss!
And how… funny. How… fitting it is to compare this dark day to the darkest fires ever lit. Ignorant fools, short-sighted and desperate to achieve victory, incapable of comprehending the tragedy of their strokes. Would we, scribes, have burned their recipe books?
Neigh! Laced their sugars?! NEIGH!
If they were willing to destroy that which we hold dear, then we are well within our right to redact their supplies! I say we occupy the marketplace and leave the arsonists to chew on stale bread! Answer any fires of theirs with a chapter of cold steel all our own!
Oc-cu-py! Oc-cu-py!
And when this ridiculous conflict has been resolved and we have rightfully emerged victorious, then we will return to them, in mint condition, that which they cannot offer us.
Gather ‘round, scribes, as your minstrel takes center stage once more!
Tonight we go way back. Dark ages? Antiquity? How’s prehistory suit you? I’m talking history before history.
Our greatest of ancestors communed in pictures, not word. A bird! A bunny! A bond. Time passed; our messages grew more complex. Safety! Danger! Love.
Day came for a revolution in our evolution! Did it take the form of a cupcake? A sunflower? I say neigh! Sounds from symbols? Symbols form words? A inconceivable brilliance matched only by the light that guides our quills!
Speak her name! A name so magnificent as to match our greatest tool!
Speak her name! Bringer and ender of peace and war both!
Speak her name! Who brought history when there was naught?!
Our first! Our best! Speak her name!!
PEN! PEN! PEN!
We have a job to do, scribes! Without us there would be no Botony! No Gastronomy! Are we going to let a weed or a crock erase our history?!
NEIGH!
Language was our gift of love! We perfected it! And by our Pen we will guide the ignorant from the margin into our body!
you [redacted] up a perfectly good doge, that’s what you did. look at it. it’s got updog
Lyra: Bon-Bon, read this.
Bon-Bon: Alright… What’s updog? Lyra: [Gasp]! Bon-Bon: No! Lyra: Bon-Bon! Bon-Bon: NO! Lyra: Bon-BON! Bon-Bon: That didn’t happen! Lyra: I can’t believe it! Bon-Bon: Shut-up, Lyra! Lyra: You really wanna know?! Bon-Bon: SHUT-UP! Lyra: It’s like you’re beggin’ for it! Bon-Bon: I’m leaving! Lyra: AH-hahahahahaha~!
Spent about an hour looking for some answers regarding the 3DS versions of Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow before I did anything, so I figured I’d reveal what I found out.
Yes, you can do both the Missingno. and Mew glitches.
But, you cannot currently connect to PokeBank with R/B/Y. No one knows if you’ll be able to transfer anything generated by these glitches over.
You can still get a low level Mew to play around with in R/B/Y, but you might not be able to trade it into PokeBank/future generations.
1) Uh, no? Yeah no.
I mean I could maybe use some more exercise. But you can take your diet and drizzle some hot chocolate on it.
2) W-… Mount Olympus? Evidently I missed a conversation. I’ve never even heard of that.
I’m gonna say no, but I don’t really know. I don’t see Rainbow Dash everyday.
3) STOP IT! Okay, new club rule: From now on I am the only one who can say the word AGENDA. [DUN DUN DUUUUN]
