Pokemon: Storm

Sleep came easily to Indigo, especially after the emotional roller coaster that had been the day prior. He woke groggily to the bright, early morning sunlight pouring through his window.

"Kovi, shut the blinds," Indigo mumbled, not wanting to get up. He flopped his arm around lazily in an attempt to grab his pokedex and see what time it was. "9 AM? Get out, I've got at least an hour to sleep in... Wait, a notification?"

It was a pokemon center text, and it was alerting him that a package had arrived. He debated back and forth for a few moments before setting an alarm on his pokedex and going right back to bed.

An hour and a half later, a dressed and prepped Indigo headed towards the lobby, scanning the room for a moment before he realized it would probably be with the front desk associates. "Hey, uh, Indigo Rose. I've got my ID right here," he said as he fished his pokedex out of his pocket and held it up. "I heard there's a package for me?"

Indigo walked out of the contest hall in disbelief. At the end of the day, he had [i]won[/i.]

It felt surreal. Him? Winning? Anything? They had done it! He had actually managed to keep up with his stellar team and pull off a victory. And yet... He glanced around.

The sun was setting now, casting far-reaching gold rays that streaked across the late afternoon sky. Congratulations and prizes had been doled out, and the contest hall had all but quieted, a few stragglers lingering behind here and there. Most people had cleared out. He hadn't seen Margo, and it shouldn't have come as a surprise but it still very much was. He glanced at the message on his pokedex he had received shortly after his win.

Hey Indigo! I had to go. I can't really explain why, but I needed to go. I'm sorry, I know this is out of the blue but it's just out of my hands.

I saw you out during the appeals round. You pulled off pretty some pretty good moves! I was honestly kind of impressed, and I'm glad you've got your first win under your belt. Just so you know, you've still got a long ways to go before beating me and Crowne! But you're at least improving.

Well, I'll catch you later sometime!

Indigo shook his head, utterly confused and-- he couldn't help it-- hurt. Why did everyone keep ditching him on his journey? Was he that much of a drag to be around? What had he said or done to chase Margo and Dan away? He sighed, turning his pokedex off and glancing at his pokeballs. This was a bittersweet day for sure.

"Well, might as well get some rest." There wasn't much sense in traveling while the day was so late, especially with his pokemon having expended so much at the contest. They were all tired, as was he. "Let's go," Indigo sighed, and shuffled away to the pokemon center.

:D omg I was and still am so obsessed with fe3h. On my normal play through, I made everyone, quite literally nearly everyone a falcon knight or wyvern lord and it was incredibly fun.

BUT on my maddening playthrough I can't personally use as unconventional builds. War master caspar with killer+ knuckles has become an absolute staple for my maddening playthroughs though. Also felix as a bow knight is pretty awesome but felix just wrecks face regardless of what class he is

Yeah I wasn't thrilled about the dlc either. $30 is so expensive for just additional pokemon and two islands. Sword and Shield were not worth $60, and this dlc isn't worth $30 imo.

But I am super excited for mystery dungeon! However I don't think I'll purchase it unless I know I'm getting a lot of content. I dont just want it to be a remake of the game. For a switch game, I'd expect more. I am hoping though...

One game I'm really excited about is Genshin Impact. Some of you may have heard of it as the "breath of the wild clone". It is really REALLY similar to botw and that's been a very controversial point from what I have read but...

If I have to wait like 2+ years for botw2 then I need to get my fix. And Genshin Impact looks like it'd be a ton of fun, and can make the wait for botw2 much more bearable.

Or, it may turn out awful. I think the studio working on genshin impact has only done mobile games so... we'll see how it goes.

I borrowed Shield from a friend. It was a cute game! But I don't think it was worth $60, and I'm glad I didn't pay for it. it seemed kinda lacking for a switch game.

Online trading is the freaking worst though. It's so hard to trade with a friend directly. The game is still decent and feel good, but trading is one of the worst features and really takes away from the game's overall values. I want a galarian ponyta :/

I won't be continuing unfortunately, I've just got a lot going on. ( I think we can just say Indigo decided to go off on his own, and he'll just gracefully exit the story.) But that's okay! I'll see you around. :)

Pokemon: Storm

@TheForgottenArcwow, good to have you back!

Pokemon: Storm

Gonna post soon! I'm almost done tacking onto the battle post. Also have you seen the sword and shield leaks?!
