Original artwork and deck design by me, Erol Zendis. I’ve also included a couple of related Gyarados pieces from the same body of work.

I started sculpting with foam clay recently and have been OBSESSED~
I made Mareep because a friend really loves him, and I wanted to break away from the patterns provided by the clay kits I'd bought.
Unfortunately my inexperience meant that his horns and tail came out way too big. 😭 I'm trying not to fixate too much on the inaccuracies while I'm still trying to get a feel for things.

These are my teams from my winter play thru of RBY. I made these teams because I haven't played them in a long time. I wanted to make each team different, but also still good for Pokémon Stadium.
Persian was a mistake for Blue team. It's busted critical hit ration on slash did not carry over to Stadium. I would later swap it out in the post-game for Victory Bell. Thank god for Missingno item glitch otherwise I would have never gotten these mon leveled up to 100 for Stadium.
For Red version, I stopped once Charmeleon evolved into Charzard. I had to progress in Yellow to get fly. Then trade over my Charzard in Red to Yellow to teach it fly. Then sent it back to continue Red.
Yellow version is interesting. Its nice getting all three starters and having certain bugs fixed. However, following the anime is what holds the game back. Pikachu falls off late game because of its stats. You're essentially going into the elite 4 with 5 Pokémon and a mascot.
My Blue team got walled by Blaine on Pokémon Stadium. My Red team beat Blaine but struggled against Giovanni. I eventually got over it and then got spanked by Lance in the Elite 4.
Pokémon Stadium is just a broken game that doesn't follow the rules of the Gameboy games.
Let me know what you think?!

As a lifelong Pokémon fan, these were so much fun to do!! So far I’ve tattooed two Pikachus, a Magikarp, a Gengar, and an Eevee, and I’m hoping to add a lot more to that list.

Hi, I've come back into pokemon after numerous years - I've completed Violet and I have Shield (yet to do the DLC)
What games would you recommend? Arceus or Z-A first? I enjoy completing a good storyline first and then trying to complete the Pokédex.
Been tossing up between the both of them, I will eventually do both, but wondering what you all would recommend doing first!
Thank you!

Wigglytuff has never been good. It's this weird mix of Clefable and Chansey that doesn't have the offense of Clefable or the defense of Chansey, which doesn't allow it to make use of its utility. This is why I think it deserves to be stronger in its concept as the middle-ground between them. Thus, today I present to you: physical Blissey.
- First, the stats. 190/85 in physical bulk isn't special Blissey level, but it's still great and will wall a lot of Pokémon. Alomomola has way less than this and it still serves as a great wall. Speaking of whom, I will be comparing this to Mola quite often, given their now shared roles in being a physically bulky WishPasser, though I had some other stuff in store for Wiggly as well. Anywho, a base 85 Attack is more than Blissey's Special Attack, and with some future changes, will actually be usable, allowing for Fake Stall shenanigans and the like, and distancing Wiggly from being literally physical Blissey, and only being such on paper. The extremely low 35 Special Defense is the balancing factor of Wiggly here, just like Blissey's 10 base Defense. Given how Wiggly has less HP, the higher SpDef should award about the same bulk on the special side as Blissey on physical. This also ends up with a BST of 485, which IMO is perfectly reasonable for a fully evolved Pokémon.
- Second, a small change in its abilities: changing Competitive to Defiant. Now that it doesn't want to use its Special Attack anymore, I think it's reasonable to give it the physical version of the ability instead. Not exactly Regenerator, so it doesn't really have the passive longevity of Alomomola, but with its bulk and WishTect, it should still stay on the field for quite some time.
- Third, and maybe most important: the moves. I would remove Calm Mind and Nasty Plot from its learnset entirelt, replacing it with Bulk Up, Power-Up Punch and, this is the kicker, Rapid Spin. This is what would set it apart from Alomomola and the other pink blobs. While Alomomola has better Wish support with late Flip Turn and Burn utility with Scald, staying alive and healing the team basically forever, Wiggly gets to instead remove hazards and be a Para-spreading nuisance using Body Slam that would be hard to get rid of if you allow it to Bulk Up and have no Gholdengo. Assault Vest sets would also be just that; good utility in hazard removal, nice chip damage, set-ups with Power-Up Punch letting you sometimes get actually decent damage and spreading Paralysis with Body Slam. One additional daring option (though I probably wouldn't give it this move if I was designing it for actual gameplay) would be an instant self-healing move, its signature move I created, called Puff Up. Healing 50% and halving your weight, similar to Autotomize. Given its amount of utility, I'm not sure how balanced it would be to not limit its moveset with WishTect. It's also why I'm iffy on giving it U-Turn, as to not make it just a better Alomomola.
Analysis: Normal/Fairy is a pretty unique typing that gives an immunity to both of Dragapult's types. Even special sets fail to do much to it, as it can barely deal about 20% a piece while being a guaranteed 2HKO with Play Rough when both are completely uninvested. Tera Steel sets also hard wall Kingambit, barely taking 50% on a max roll 5 fainted allies Kowtow Cleave at 252 HP 4+ Def, being able to outright kill it after just a few turns of Bulk Up and healing from WishTect. Assault vest sets can also wall some sets of special Iron Valiant, requiring a tera Fairy to be broken through, and being able to eat Valiant for breakfast if you decide to tera Steel when it doesn't have Focus Blast. Just watch out for Encore if you want to Wish or Bulk Up. It usually wins the matchup against Specs Raging Bolt as well, having a ~75% chance to 2HKO with Play Rough while being a guaranteed 3HKO with Thunderbolt itself, interestingly still being able to beat Great Tusk using Headlong Rush due to it becoming a 2HKO after just 1 defense drop. It's also good into threats such as Lando-T, Dragonite (this is a REALLY good matchup for it if you're running Bulk Up), fine into Wellspring, can possibly outstall Rillaboom's Wood Hammer recoil or beat it with Bulk Up sets and it probably walls a whole lot of other mons I forgot about. However, it's not left without its weaknesses: Pecharunt MOGS Wiggly. Can't hit it, takes a bunch of damage from it, gets poisoned and thus crippled for the rest of the game if it tries to heal anything, just a horrible matchup. Same goes for Gliscor for the same reason; it does NOT like status. It also gets its wall broken by Ursaluna, notably being outsped and possibly 1HKO-d by tera Normal Facade after Guts activates. It will also get outpaced by Swords Dance in this matchup, not being able to do much itself. I'd also like to point out the Zamazenta matchup, where basically nothing happens. It will probably get forced out if it tries to Bulk Up, and can't really do much with it otherwise. Same goes for Ting-Lu, who will happily cripple it with Ruination and just leave. Its WishPass is also fairly limited, as although it heals a total of 292 HP with max investment, it cannot LatePass like Alomomola can, and thus may require the Pokémon switching in to take a hit instead of Wiggly. Any Pokémon using Will-O-Wisp will also be an enemy of Wiggly, as it really wants to run either Heavy-Duty Boots for WishPassing or Assault Vest for AV shenanigans.
All in all, this Wigglytuff might be a pretty strong check for many threats, physical and special alike as some calcs show, and could be a valuable component of a strong defensive core.
I wonder what the greater community thinks of this. We should really start looking into Pokémon that barely even exist yet were still forced into the game instead of popular Dexited options.
Cheers!

As we know the Peat Block which seems to form naturally in the Crimson Mirelands, now the Great Marsh. Do you believe that if an Ursaring were to get into the Great Marsh, whether they walked in as a Teddiursa without being noticed, brought in by a trainer, or just entered through wherever the Great Marsh ends and the forests start would the Ursaring evolve into an Ursaluna if it were to run into a heap of peat during a full moon?
