Yesterday the GRA made a tag in honor of Pokémon Day, but I wasn't online when it was posted so this is a wee bit late. Better late than never!

1.) If you could have a Pokémon in real life, which would it be and why?
I would want to have a cute fluffball, and when I think of adorable fluffballs, I think Eevee. As someone who loves both cats and dogs, Eevee is the perfect.

2.) Why is Pokémon special to you?
Pokémon is a franchise I've never abandoned because I lost interest in it. The games have offered me hundreds of hours of fun gameplay over the years, entertaining me to no end.

3.) What's your favorite Pokémon related memory?
When I was younger, I would fight with my sisters nonstop. My parents suggested that we play Pokémon games (Diamond and Platinum) together to bond, and it actually worked. This might be my favorite memory just because it's one of the first ones I think of when looking back.

4.) What Pokémon games have you played, do you have a favorite, and why?
I've played Colosseum, Diamond, Platinum, LeafGreen, Soul Silver, X, Alpha Sapphire, Rangers: Shadows of Almia, both PokéParks, Battle Revolution, Sun, Moon, Rumble, and Ultra Moon. I've played Magikarp Jump and Pokémon Go, too, if that counts ^^ My favorite would have to be X because the new graphics and introduction of Fairy-types were groundbreaking (to me at least lol).

5.) Do you watch the anime? If so, what's your favorite season?
I don't know the seasons' names, oops. I watched the original Kanto season, DPP, most of Johto and Orange Islands, and part of the Hoenn series. My favorite would be the original because it reminds me of when I first became interested in Pokémon where I'd watch the Kanto reruns on weekend mornings.

6.) Are you a shipper? If so, what's your OTP?
I've never been a big shipper for this fandom, but I do find a few couples cute. My OTP would go to ColosseumShipping aka Wes x Rui~

7.) Do you have a favorite Pokéfic?
Picking favorites is difficult, so I'll take the cheap way out and recommend a handful of fics lol.
Here are just a few:
- Getting Out of Fuchsia by d_s_t_e
- Heart of Steel by ImberLapis
- Zam the Hybrid by DI_Gremlin
If you want more, I have a Reading List called "Fic Rec" full of stories I've enjoyed.
