DxP REWRITE - Soft Words

Based on many real conversations 🩵 Also Gen 8 tent because that was the BEST, dammit. Makes me wanna sign in to Sword again just to camp out, play with my Pokémon & make curry. 🍛

Sasha (Glaceon) isn’t trained like Rain is to notice / respond to Ansy’s moments where she disassociates or gets lost in a memory or feeling, but he’s picked up on it over the few years Ansy & Ikrit’s been together. I’d imagine he can be sensitive to her feelings like his trainer, too. ❄️

Huehuehue, been a while since Ansy made her “kill ‘em with kindness” face 😇⛈️ Also, meet Cumulus ⚡️

I don’t understand how the Froslass was given to Ansy? The comic showed the pokemon delivered the letter but not joining her?

(I was saving this one to doodle a little something, but looks like I’m too busy 😅)

Yukina followed her down the mountain, & as they were sorting out their next steps, she handed Ansy her old Hisuian Poké Ball she kept in her kimono sleeve this whole time with the letter. 🌨️

DxP REWRITE - Dishonor Among Thieves

Back when I was figuring out the brothers’ early friendship with Ansy during her PKMN Black run, I had the thought that Rain (Eevee), a very rare, foreign Pokémon, would be a target for Team Plasma (until N tells them not to touch her again). From there, I figured a good first meeting was them teaching Team Plasma exactly what happens if they try to cause trouble in their subway.

There are a lot of people in our world who don’t see mental illness - or “mental injury” as I like to call (C-)PTSD - as a real health condition, let alone a disability. Some say ugly things to shame others they label as “entitled” or “weak”. Sometimes they’re raised that way, sometimes they’re confused or have some sort of inner resentment, or sometimes they’re just plain awful.

If you struggle with mental illness / injury, you’re not entitled or weak for needing extra help navigating life, whether it be a service animal, therapy, a trip to the hospital, or just a friend. It’s real, even if people around you can’t / won’t see it. 🩵

PS: my headcanon is that evil team Grunts have little themed codenames, too (knights for classic Team Plasma, maybe meteoroids / asteroids for Team Galactic, etc).

I’d also like to add with my “casual hobbyist” understanding of meteorology on why violent storms like hurricanes are notoriously difficult to forecast, because YES, conditions are in constant flux.

If there’s a vast nimbostratus promising to pour down rain all day, that’s pretty easy to forecast. You can even observe it from the ground - if the skies go gray with the sun half visible through the clouds (altocumulus), it’s likely going to rain soon.

Meanwhile, if it’s a more vertical cumulonimbus brought on by surface heat that rages for a few hours before being spent, that’s harder to track. Hurricanes may be big, but they’re constantly rotating with the heat, then slows / weakens when it makes landfall.

Here’s a video from MinuteEarth that goes into it a bit more:

The more you know, guys & yes, certain folks would like to privatize/dismantle NOAA, meaning natural disasters like hurricanes will be a lot harder for regular folk to prepare for, let alone follow. 🌧️

(PS: if you watch the video to the end & hear “AI” from their sponsor, this is the good kind that help us calculate things like weather forecasts more accurately, & not the bad kind that steals your data or your creative content 😅)

This is especially frustrating because the only reason we know the wind speed is because NOAA's Hurricane Hunters literally fly into the hurricane and collect vital data. They fly in and out of the storm over and over in 8 hour shifts.

This brave team flies two identical Lockheed P3s called Kermit and Miss Piggy.

You can see the dangling ornaments in the videos to determine which plane they are in.

And when I say they fly into the hurricane, I mean they fly *into* the hurricane.

Here they are in the eye of Milton.

And here they are in the eye of Irma.

As you may notice, this flight was in Kermit.

So the next time you see live data about a hurricane's wind speed and pressure, just remember how that was collected and don't be a giant turd about it.

And please vote because conservatives want to kill NOAA.

PKMN & a river park

“Hello Rain”

“Find something nice?”

—

I saw someone do this for their Flareon, so of course I HAD to make it for my Rain!! 878 🩵

This was at a riverside park in the springtime; there was a paved slope that lets you access the waterside, & a path along the river leading into a forest. Granted, it was a little overflowing due to the spring rains we got - I remember seeing a sitting spot just turn into an island as the water flooded the forest lol 🌳🌧️💧

I do like taking photos with my plushes, but I may make more of these in the future, too - it was fun ^_^

& WE’RE LIVE!! Professor Case & I will be waiting for you at our Kofi pages (here’s mine, & here’s Case’s).

In case the screenshot’s too blurry, leave a $5 donation on either of our Kofi’s with the Pokemon you’d like doodled as a “Hurricane Helper” (with a rain coat, umbrella, splashing in puddles, etc) in the comment.

If you feel more comfortable donating directly to Greater Good Charities, just screenshot a confirmation of your donation along with the Pokemon you want 🩵

PLEASE leave any questions in the comments so I can quickly get back to you! It’s currently 8PM for us, so if I or Case don’t get to your Hurricane Helper tonight, we will tomorrow. We’re gonna have this going for a week (so until next Wednesday).

LET’S DO THIS! ☔️

⭐️ PS: Please don’t forget what Pokemon you want doodled in the comment! XD

Hurricane Helpers Collaboration 🌧️

Ansy: I’m teaming up with my friend on IG, PKMN Professor Case, to raise funds for hurricane relief efforts in areas affected by recent storms.

Case: As Hurricane Milton approaches, we’re creating special thank-you art for anyone who contributes to our fundraiser to support those in need. Details coming soon—stay tuned for how you can help!

From both of us, thank you! & if you are/were in the path of either hurricane, stay safe. 🩵
