    Hibiscus is ~13ish and trying desperately to be cool, so honestly taking pleasure in anything is a source of guilt. We are all sending thoughts and prayers to him that one day he might grow the fuck out of it. More specifically, he'd actually really rather be doing contests than island challenges or league battles, but this is something he's denying even to himself at present.

    As more or less his exact opposite, guilty pleasure is not a concept Aeron has ever given half a thought to; well, people have tried to introduce her to it, but it rolls off her without making it through her thick armour of not giving a shit. Aeron takes pleasure in whatever Aeron feels like taking pleasure in, and everyone else can go jam their heads up a pig.

    Mirkel's guilty pleasure is having money. He was born incredibly poor and very much aligns himself with the dregs of society, so he keeps getting pangs of guilt over the fact that his adventuring is now bringing in more money than he actually needs, and keeps nervously hoarding it and trying not to spend any of it lest he accidentally become nobility somehow. Oddly enough, this leads to him having more money, and thus the cycle continues. He's currently saving for a house, but can't think about it too hard or he starts to panic at the notion of actually owning property.

    Hibiscus gets tummy troubles if he eats anything too spicy. He does anyway, because of the aforementioned appearing cool thing. He's really hoping Hau has never noticed he disappears into the nearest loo after they share a spicy malasada. Hau has noticed.

    Vigdis Cadash can and will eat the spiciest things she can get her hands on despite growing up on fairly basic dwarf cuisine. She and Bull do spice-eating contests. On one memorable occasion, they both got horribly carried away and laid themselves up for several days; Vigdis is still kind of proud of that.

    Lifkana the khajiit is a curry hoover, but used to never eat it because he was living too high-class a lifestyle. Ironically. Now he's fallen on harder times, he is rediscovering his love of a good curry, and also rediscovering getting very upset when it makes his nose run.

    Rilli will drink weird drugged fermented meat drink till the cows come home but regards putting anything more than salt on her actual food with deep suspicion.

    Hibiscus had Old Gateau once when he was a little kid and it changed his life. Not that he admits that, naturally.

    Paddy has an apple fixation, so anything apple-flavoured just gets automatically purchased. He usually has something apple-y in his purse. For a doctor, he eats far too much candy; he's insistent that it's necessary to keep him sweet.

    Andy Lavellan doesn't actually like sweet things super duper much. Occasionally he gets anxiety over it in case people think he's strange. He does, however, enjoy liquorice. Salted liquorice.

    Merin will die, will die a horrible slow death, will more to the point maim people, before he admits that he really really enjoys butterscotch.

    Hibiscus: 'no'. It was his first word as a child and the trend has continued, though in recent years the word 'whatever' has rapidly approached breaking its lead.

    Kitty (my Pokemon Black pc) is something of a 'like'-er, but she hasn't noticed and if she did she would defend her right to, like, use 'like' as much as she, like, likes, to the death. Like.

    Mortuary the bot-disposal bot probably most overuses 'oh', which I suppose is less of a word and more of an interjection or something, but he sure does use it a lot.

    Kirvin Surana has an annoying tendency to dismiss anything he disapproves of as 'dull' or 'boring'. Being boring, to Kirvin, is the worst sin, because he can find something to be interested in in almost anything. So he doesn't perhaps overuse the word in the context of using it often, but he does overuse it in the context of describing things he doesn't like.

    superior societies are ones in which random girls will offer you resurrected fossil animals for free while you're just trying to shop at a shitty boat store

    putting this here before i go to bed and probably forget it:
    all gym leaders are required to be qualified battle referees before they can take up their posts

    from discord:

    how burgundy/cilan would work: in everyday life he teaches her about pokemon connoisseurship; in the bedroom she s t e p s on him

    how burgundy/georgia works: VICIOUS FIGHTS FOR WHO GETS TO TOP THIS TIME; the notion of nobody having to top is alien to them

    how burgundy/iris/georgia works: iris has them both on leashes
    they hate this and yet they bow to her anyway
    if anyone suggests they stop the relationship they get super offended

    other good pokemon anime ships:
    dawn/zoey
    brock/james
    ash/everyone who's ever called themself his rival
    may/drew
    may/harley

    i have to admit, the plotting in blackwhite is actually pretty excellent for this anime. and there's some genuinely clever villainy
    just, like
    couldn't you have done all this with team plasma instead of Suddenly Competent jessie, james and meowth
    there are three seasons of blackwhite and team plasma literally doesn't turn up till the third despite giovanni saying in the first episode that most of the reason he sent the rocket trio to unova was to flush team plasma out
    yet they are not flushed out until team rocket finishes being thwarted in its evil

    i'm mostly just sort of sad because i can't get the connection i used to get with the rocket trio. i had so much emotion about them i couldn't watch when they were given a chance to Be Good And Happy because i knew the status quo would take it away again. but now they're just... evil people carrying out their evil plans, all the personality is gone. it's great plotting, like i said, i just wish it was someone else who never had any personality to take away in the first place.

    more reason to write that fic i guess, but it's a slippery bastard and refuses to be pinned down in words

    me: the plotting is very good this series
    also me: BOO YOU'VE ALREADY USED THE WEATHER TRIO THIS SERIES DO SOMETHING ELSE

    at least they're using their other formes i guess

    it is my fondest, most deeply held and probably most likely to be canon headcanon that giovanni doesn't give a single, solitary fuck about pikachu and is in fact sick of the word and the species as a whole

    admittedly it's been a while since ash last crossdressed in the series but i feel like i remember him almost always being a redhead
    guess they really like to go for the redheads=fiery idea?

    anyway ash makes a precious girl and should do it more often

    cilan, i thought you were supposed to be a gym leader
    is the dress throwing you off
    i don't think that hairstyle really suits you, either

    soren... who has a braviary... and rocko... who has a drilbur
    glad to see the puns survive somewhere in blackwhite if they've been removed from the title cards for whatever reason

    also fun fact brock's german name is rocko
    i wonder if the german dub made a note of the coincidence or, since brock isn't in this series and adding lines is hard, just ignored it and pretended it wasn't a thing

    the older brother has one bang and the younger brother has two
    pokemon... really likes doing that sort of thing and i'll be honest i'm into it
