it's v possible they had that and then gamfreak went '=/ we want that as a game mechanic back off' or something
post: look at all these ways fantasy races could reproduce inorganically! me: haha those are amazing and creative also me: [shuffles them to the side never to be used because i enjoy sex and pregnancy too much as tropes]
me: i love platonic intimacy it's very important also me: i think they should probably also have sex though i'm like the opposite of someone who's sick and tired of seeing sex in everything. more sex in everything please
in other news i've been ralts hunting in Y for like a thousand years and not one of the bastards has shown up
Spoiler: >_> look. look. This just means you can have goblins who're like 'okay okay what if we turkey-stuff the soup up someone's belly for shits and giggles' and then there's a whole group of goblins just getting pregnant for fun, which is ideal bc that way people can reproduce BOTH WAYS and lbr just bc they don't need to fuck for reproduction doesn't mean they don't fuck ELUSIVE LITTLE GREEN TODDLERS ARE THE BANE OF MY EXISTENCE
you are a genius and i adore you I FINALLY SPRANG ONE AND I WAS LIKE 'I'LL JUST DAMAGE IT A LITTLE SO I DON'T WASTE POKEBALLS' AND WHAT FUCKING HAPPENED IT DIED i yelled so hard the cat jumped off the sofa arm next to me and ran away
<3 also alts are suhc little bastards, that's why I love them so. I also love abra. Abra is a fucking rat bastard child too
fuck abras tho i haven't managed to pop another ralts, but i did snag a white flabebe which technically (according to serebii.net) have a 1% appearance chance as opposed to ralts' 5% so that's something?
everyone else on route 4: what the fuck has that kid been doing walking in circles in the same flower patches for like four hours joke's on them though, they're standing in exactly the same place every hour of the day come rain or shine
i reckon it'd actually be pretty easy to convert pokemon sprites to cross stitch patterns since pixel art and cross stitch are... basically exactly the same thing in different mediums the trouble would be finding the right colours, which is where i fall down horribly. i'm so bad at colours. so bad.
the person who put the squares over them also did colour matching for threads in the case of unown, and also i'd probably be lazy and do minimal highlights and such i was talking if i wanted to chart a sprite that wasn't already charted
