A Suguri Sweet Pokémon Blog (but sometimes not really!)

[Oga-ponn]

Hi there, and welcome to blog! You may call me Suguri. :3

I’ve been interested in hosting my own BulbaBlog for a while because I’ve got so many thoughts about Pokémon that I wouldn’t feel right spamming them in my profile. ^^; This place should hopefully keep the little rascals in my head organized and tidy, and who knows? I might get some people interested.

A lot of my posts are going to be random, but they’ll also involve me sharing my opinions on different aspects of the franchise. I ask that you keep an open mind when reading them, and know that I do not have the energy to argue with people whose opinions are different from mine. It’s just not worth it and it only leaves me feeling uncomfortable. Got it?

That’s all for my introduction, and my first post will be coming soon-ish. Stay tuned!

Eiscue is such a strange Pokémon to me.

Well, they are pretty cute! It's just their size that weirds me out; they measure at 4 feet and 7 inches (or 1.4 meters for metric users) and I always imagined them to be much smaller than that for some reason.

I don't know, honestly. Penguins themselves are pretty big fellas so I get where they're coming from. Maybe it has more to do with its ice face than anything else, because if a saw a person next to an Eiscue with a noice ("no-ice" or "noice," like the meme?) face, then I'd feel neutral about that.

There’s already a thread about what things you’re looking forward to for the 2/27 Pokémon Presents, but I feel more comfortable posting my thoughts in my blog so here’s where I’ll be talking about that.

Obviously I’d like a sneak peek of the new generation and more importantly its starters! I hope their designs are good (and cute ofc) because I’m pretty excited to draw them once the Big Reveal occurs. But I have every reason to believe that the new games will be a Switch 2 exclusive, and it's going to take a while before I can even get my hands on that console anyway. I don't like to stay behind on Pokémon, but if I'm right then I guess I don't have a choice. T^T

New spin-off games? Hmm, there’s a lot already but you can never have too many, amiright? There's a million possibilities for that, so I'll be open to whatever the devs come up with. That said, a new Pokémon Rumble game would be super cool even if it's unlikely. Sorry PMD fans but I doubt there's going to be a new entry for your series any time soon.

That's all for my predictions. I can't wait to see what this year's Presents has to offer, and I'm down for a surprise or two.

I have another random thought coming soon, but first I'll have to address my last post:

Unsurprisingly, I hit the mark. I did draw one of the starters (Browt) but not Pombon and Gecqua, mainly because of my soft spot for the grass starter.

There weren't any new spin-offs, but to be fair there's already one I really want to play and that is Pokémon Pokopia. Which basically means I was right that there would be no PMD entry, but wrong on the Pokémon Rumble part.

I think I'm starting to develop an interest in Pokémon plushies. With an Ogerpon Poké Doll coming my way soon, I've been thinking about what plush toys I should get next, so here's my wishlist as of now:

Spoiler: Large Ogerpon Plush

Can't really think of a good reason to get them besides that they would complete my collection of Ogerpon plushies. Yep, besides her Poké Doll, these are all the stuffed toys available for the Mask Pokémon.

Spoiler: Bellibolt Squishmallow

I'm not a fan of Certain Squishmallow Designs, but with some, like Bellibolt, they translate perfectly into the egg shape. Bellibolt is one of my favorite Paldean Pokémon and I have one in my Scarlet team, so it would be cool to also have him with me in the real world. <3 Plus I've seen some in Target before so it should hopefully be easy for me to find one...

Spoiler: Poké Dolls

Koraidon and Terapagos would look great alongside Ogerpon. But Poké Dolls are supa expensive in the second-hand market; I've seen Ogerpon and Koraidon ranging at around $60-100, and Terapagos is the priciest of the Paldea legendaries with prices ranging from $84 to $175. One day, very, very, soon...

Can't believe it's been over a month since I last posted here. Let's change that.

First off I want to ramble about Altaria, the Humming Pokémon.

To be honest, I prefer its Japanese name (Tyltalis) over its English name. I guess because it sounds more elegant to me. So from now on I'll call it just that, it's my blog so I'll do whatever I want.

Anyway, Tyltalis is among my favorite 3rd-gen Pokémon, and I'd love to have it on my team when I get around to playing either Emerald or OR/AS. It's not just that it's cute and graceful, it's also got an interesting typing, especially when you keep in mind that it doesn't even look like your typical dragon anyway. A unique species, I'm telling ya.

That's all for now, it's midnight for me and I gotta go to sleep. In my next post I'll talk about Pokémon plushies once again.
