Between church, school, & targeted advertising my inability to focus has probably helped me subvert more brain washing than I'll ever really know. Maybe it's not so maladaptive in this dystopia? (thelemmy.club)

    Its weird cuz evolution in Pokemon is more akin to metamorposes or even just basic puberty except theres sometimes 1 extra step XD

    How fun would it be to have an entirely breeding focused game of Pokemon that was about evolution, though? You want an ivysaur? Selectively breed these bulbasaurs that kind of look more like an ivysaur!

    The concept of "fun" has been trademarked by the Nintendo corporation. Your trial will being soon.
