The End of Pokémon Violet

I love the part where Turo travels to the future to get milk

My favorite detail about the fight at 2:10:54 is that if you read the glitching text, for a moment it says "AI Turo has no intention of fighting any more!"

Nemona, Alpha, and Penny: Happy that their problems were resolved and they made it through! Arven: Freaking dissociating in the background

Nemona's lack of emotional intelligence really shines when Arven is going through what is undoubtedly the single most stressful and depressing event in his life, god damn

Okay, but real talk: The professors in this game have to be some of the most callous villains Game Freak have ever put in Pokemon. The Paradise Protection Protocol was an extra failsafe they put in to terminate anyone trying to stop the Time Machine by locking their pokeballs and then siccing a murderous future pokemon on school kids

Gotta love how Arven’s whole world was shattered finding out his dad is dead and now the robot one goes out to get milk, and then Nemona kinda just goes “ok cool, what’s next?”

"I inherited all the thoughts and wishes of the professor" still leaves Arven

I like how someone gifts $5,000 to the gym leader but she only gives $4,320. She made money in that fight and she lost.

Nemona has 3 brain cells and 2 of them are eternally locked in a Pokemon battle, I love it

Man, as an adult playing this game and seeing Arven get told to like. Just Cheer Up after seeing the closest person to his parent he's seen in YEARS leave him AGAIN, and all the trauma that comes with the implications in the lab. I was. Just so sad. Like put me in the game, coach, I'll drive this poor guy to his therapy appointments myself.

Biggest shock of this game for me was the very heartwarming ending, followed by the credits with FUCKING ED SHEERAN’S CELESTIAL PLAYING

I love that all the phallic imagery in the game subconsciously caused Alpha to read Miraidon’s ability as Hardon Energy.

2:18:24 Love how Penny essentially tells Arven "skill issue + daddy issue" right after he learns his dad died and sees Dad 2 book it into the Metaverse

2:15:44 I love how immediately after he finishes talking about how Turo favors the PC over Arven, the next shot has Miraidon posed to perfectly block Arven out of the frame

Dude that split second when it said "AI Turo no longer wishes to fight" gave me fucking chills. The story in this game is just 👌

The real reason we need voice acting: So that Alpharad doesnt have to attempt to read dialogue, skip 90% of it, and then say that it doesnt make sense I saw a video where they said How much you like Starfall Street depends on how much you resonate with them but maybe it actually depends on how well you can read

Best part, Alpha never learned the Academy is a public school, with some students being well into their "creepy old man hanging around children" years.

My favorite part of the Director helping out with Iono's gym test is that in German, instead of Mr. Walksabout, she refers to him as Schlendermann

Honestly, I had just assumed Turo's head not moving was because the animation team was lazy, but the fact that it's relevant with him being a robot actually blows my mind. All the budget for this game went into story, I guess...

I have some major issues about your comments on team start... 1) they were ALL severely bullied so they formed star 2) only Ortega is rich, and actually DOESN'T take money from parents, making their own stuff and inventions through their own efforts 3) they broke school rules, didn't show up, and even went as far as to literally round up and attack the ones who bullied each of them for being different (weird). 4) this story and the fact the consequences didn't really happen is simple... here in the US we seemingly love to imprison troubled kids and adults after a single offense, and instead of helping them and re-educating them, we throw them under the rug and expect them to just change and get better. Hell lots of the crimes, especially on impoverished or lower class kids, get embelished by prosecutors all the time to increase the sentence, just to ensure a sentence passes. SO this story is more about how you can help troubled youth without just throwing them away and hoping for the best. Penny comitting a felony is serious sure, but giving her an outlet to use her talent for good is MUCH fucking better than arresting her. especially since no malice was present, and she did it to protect her friends and hurt no one what so ever by hacking in. I clearly saw you ignore the story, and then complain it was the "1%" getting away with shit, but that couldn't be further from what it was.
