    It’s all fun and games until someone throws a ball at you and enslaves you.

    Wrong pokemon probs. Would you want to be like-- a Nidorino or some shit, or would you want a bipedal frame? (granted, Gen 1 was kinda lacking in GOOD bipedal frames without becoming something people didn’t even believe existed; but I digress. Wouldn’t have minded being like. A Kadabra, or a Hitmonlee or smth.)

    As a kid i figured it was some horrible “The Fly” sort of thing, and his mutated boneless apendages wouldnt let him hit the any key.

      Unrelated, but I remember my primary school biology teacher using The Fly as an argument against teleportation. It only dawned on me years later that she was talking to a primary school kid about a Cronenbergian horror

    I don’t mean to kinkshame anyone but it’s all fun and games until someone captures you, shrinks you down and stores you in their balls.

    Strikes me that being a Pokemon in the Pokemon universe would be pretty horrifying, the potential to be caught and forced to fight for some snot-nosed 12 year old the rest of your life is too high.
