Oooo A Lot Of Interesting Stuff Here. So I Imagine Ethics Are Quite Different In Your Field? Privacy

I certainly appreciate that! I am a bit inspired for my own quieter and stigmatized side, though it’s a bit different ^^ As the saying goes, fear can rarely survive the light of knowledge! I hope you break down some barriers! 💪

Hehe I will report back if I end up doing so!

( @poketherapist-in-training )

Hi! You seem really cool- I’ve never heard of a weremon before! Outside of reading, that is. I loved the “stretched dewpider” tag on your post! Sillies. Hope we can be friends!

Hello !! Thank you !!!! :}

Yeah, most folk don't know it's not just mythos !! It's a fascinating condition for sure, and even moreso with weird forms like my own-- but I think it's neat and enjoy talking about it :}

It is funny but it's also kinda true-- normally I like to keep a human-like trunk instead of going 100% ... it looks very silly, but it means I keep my land-lungs (and arms, and size..), so it makes living on my own a lot easier XP

I'm always open to talking !! Always feel free to shoot asks or the like <3

terrifying godlike creature *nods*

Notes

Egg....

She sure does! And it’s mutual xD She’s been getting her lil hairs combed and even more little pins added into her hair. Little baby doll!

Me and Pippi are back on that grind!

Pippi accidentally kidnapped Pi… so we’re giving Pi a tour!

Erm… @newcomer-karp just in case you were wondering where she went!

Pippi basically said it’s just cold asf here and eggs gonna take longer.

She seems content just watering the two random egg plants??? I got ??

Y'know, I'm starting to be a little worried about the egg. Pippi and Chief are reassuring me that all is fine but it was supposed to hatch like... well, a while ago. Vital signs on the incubator panel are still normal, and I guess the chanseys would know best.

I've been carrying it with me constantly, and the incubator manages the temp, humidity, etc. so it should be fine, but idk.

Maybe the lil guy just doesn't wanna hatch yet.

appreciate your bat pokemon today and everyday.

You’d think, but he’ll even go work odd jobs in the community to fund his own stuff…

What usually gets him to stop is when Teenie the Oddish’s leaves start to wilt from heat. So there’s that at least…

Teenie gets him to sun bathe outside now and again, which is nice. It’s cute how close they are. :)

Hello. Official appointment request! ^^

Chief the Chansey, with his little Oddish passenger (they are inseparable… we’ve tried) are the clients!

Background: Chief was a medic in the pokewars of yore and belonged to my grandpa. He’s in my care now as my grandpa isn’t able to care for him. He’s not distrustful of humans really, more so he sees them all as in his care and can’t seem to submit himself to their care. He’s been pretty isolated and is mourning my grandmother and the loss of company of my grandpa/ loss of caretaking for him since he is in my families care now.

Hope that’s enough background! Any additional info and scheduling can be tagged:

[ THIS IS A CLOSED APPOINTMENT BETWEEN B AND THE USER. ]

Thank you for the starting information! That's very helpful! ^^

Breaking out of selfless habits in order to care for yourself or let others care for you can be tough, I've actually had that issue myself before when I get too into the zone. ^^"

Is there any specific habits that really stand out?

RETURN OF THE KING

Oh my god… they’re CUTE!

Big coral like creature … I wonder if they’d want to be friends………….

Pokerating Day 17, Stakatakakatatakatakatakakataka

Charm: Honestly, while being a cool looking mon (gonna refer to the ultra beasts as pokemon for simplicity), it's also strangely cute when you realize its like... 100+ organisms in a trenchcoat. Each "brick" of the stakataka, sometimes jokingly called "taka" as I will be referring to them, is it's own organism. It's kind of like a coral when you really think about it. 10/10

Care: So, this is one of the least understood ultra beasts. We do not have documentation of it's ultra-space dimension. Anything here will be speculative, so ignore this rating if you only want cold hard facts. Stakataka is most reminiscent of a coral, as it is a colony of individual stone-shelled creatures. We can assume that each taka (brick) has a separate internal biology, so it would have to eat separately. This usually lends best to filter-feeding, buuuut stakataka has no real prey that it COULD filterfeed that we know of. It is likely, at least partially, carnivorous, as most similar creatures are, and I would theorize that they hunt other rock-types via ambush. This is an incredibly slow organism so it is NOT an active hunter. I would guess that one or two taka take watch while the others pretend to be a brick wall, and then they send a signal to ambush when something gets close. Overall I have to do a ?/10 though, since this is all speculative. A stakataka is also FUCKING MASSIVE. You're gonna need like several acres of land for it and LOTS of prey.

Safety: One taka is probably harmless but a full stakataka? No. 0/10

Utility: Field move data on these pokemon are... limited, to say the least. Both due to their discovery in Alola, a region that doesn't use field moves, and due to being exceedingly rare, we have no confirmation on what "HM" moves they could use. I would *guess* that it could learn cut, rock smash, strength, and MAYBE rock climb. Despite that, this fella(s) is (are?) essentially a mobile brick wall. You could easily set up a tarp over one and be safe if it likes you. ?/10 though regardless sadly.

Battle Potential: Damned by its type. Just like the many rock/steel types before it. I already went over this type not to long ago, but to simplify, double weak to fighting and ground, two of the most common offensive types, is damning. It's still alright, and if it can get going, setting up an iron defense or something so it can bodypress harder or setting trickroom, it can certianly put in work, but when other more common mons exist it's hard to justify. 4/10, I think it could do better in the future if a move or ability that makes trick room better is found, but right now it's just impressively slow.

Final Ratings:

Charm: 10/10

Care: Data Insufficient

Safety: 0/10

Utility: Data Insufficient

Battle Potential: 4/10

Final Notes:

Those totally legally obtained documents I got access to helped on this one but even those can only do so much. I love calling the little bricks "taka", in fact, if we said taka for each taka in a stakataka it'd look like staka....

That almost looks like one with the T's I accidentally capitalized. Anyways its rumored to be roughly 150 takas per staka.

watching documentaries about golbat and it's so funny to me that they can drink too much blood to fly after. they straight up look like this
