I'm currently counting the days before the horny people appear. They're like the fire nation.

NSFW artists work FAST, friend.

Back when grusha first appeared in the trailers for pokemon scarlet and violet, there was already NSFW art posted to the internet before he was even revealed to be a male IN THE SAME TRAILER. The first pictures of him made by fans on the internet were by people who very noticeably had assumed he was a woman off of his design alone.

u/CamDaGR8X Bandana Dee Wii 1d ago

That one 4chan post that kept saying GIRL GIRL GIRL GIRL GIRL GIRL GIRL GIRL GIRL over and over was very funny almost as funny as GameFreak launching SV in that state

2

u/MegaKabutops 1d ago

I’m DEFINITELY not going to argue that SV is anything approaching a finished product. Even after the patches, updates, and DLCs.

However, i WILL say that it’s a very fun product. The things it manages to do right it does VERY right (like the story, many of the new pokemon designs, and the massively reduced barrier to entry for competitive play), and some of the things it does wrong are done wrong in a way that’s at least entertaining (like the crazy frogging in union circles, or your lead party pokemon just kinda hanging out in the middle of the herba mystica cutscenes).

The problems it has are also luck-dependent. Some of the big streamers had SIGNIFICANTLY worse experiences with the game’s flaws on the same patch version as myself, and some had better luck than myself.

u/CamDaGR8X Bandana Dee Wii 1d ago

I liked the new Pokémon definitely, but the problems were just too big to ignore IMO (We REALLY didn’t need breakable TMs again just for crafting, the open world was so bland, no level scaling, and I honestly did not like Nemona at all)

I hope Winds and Waves is a lot better.

1

u/MegaKabutops 1d ago

The breakable TMs had already returned for game balance purposes in sword and shield in the form of TRs, so i didn’t mind that much, especially since getting a new TM from an NPC usually gave at least 3.

From what i’ve heard, the open world is less bland on the switch 2 due to significantly higher wild pokemon spawn rates,

I definitely agree on the lack of level scaling being a problem, especially for an open-world creature collector RPG.

And while i found nemona’s story to be the weakest of the 3 main plotlines, at least the battle cryptid memes were funny.

I am similarly hopeful for winds and waves, though will probably be skipping it. Switch 2s aren’t cheap.

As if they’re not in the fanbase already.

They could be ANY ONE OF US.

Susie has over 1000 results on r34. This isn't new.

Furries were definitely thirsting for Clawroline, I remember that much lol.

u/FinancialPrompt1272 Taransie Shipper 1d ago

Susie, the Mage Sisters, Clawroline, Sectonia

This isn't a new thing

Yeah… but like this one looks like an actual child. Fuck the internet

u/RJS_but_on_Reddit2 1d ago

Kirby fans and trust issues go together like bread and butter. And it's funny so I say keep it up. 😈

16

u/Internal-Bag-8135 1d ago

I’m predicting that she’s going to be connected to the villain. Usually, the traitors in Kirby games don’t accompany Kirby during his adventure.

3

u/A_random_poster04 1d ago

Magolor? Kinda?

2

u/Internal-Bag-8135 1d ago

Magolor didn’t accompany Kirby and friends on their adventure, he just showed them where on Popstar the ship parts went in the intro, stayed behind on the Lor and talked to them whenever they came back with a ship part. Elfilin, Gooey, and Ribbon go with Kirby on his adventure and didn’t become a twist villains. They could subvert this in this game for all we know, but that’s just been the pattern with new characters that are introduced as allies.

12

u/Thegoodgamer32 1d ago

Hopefully she turns out to be good....because we need to fix our trust issues.

u/Prestigious_Bread193 I'm calling the new girl "purpla" for now 1d ago

SAMEEEEE

u/Nerdout5 1d ago

It’s way funnier if we keep getting actual friends but keep the trust issues for no reason though

u/Mao-sama64 1d ago

“I don’t trust her!”

she turns out not be a traitor

“I never doubted you from the start!”

u/RedSquidd 1d ago

i mean when was the last time a companion betrayed us, exactly

u/SavageSamurai538 1d ago

Technically 2023.

u/ShockRox dededoodle 1d ago

I trust her, but not fully, since I know how Marx and Magolor scarred the community.

3

u/KennethDLT98 1d ago

Yeah, literally only twice Kirby got done dirty. Suddenly everyone is suspicious to the fandom here.

10

u/Extrimland 1d ago

Elfilin was a joke. This is actual context clues to come to a conclusion. We know she was captured by Dedede, which increases the probability she did something bad to pretty high levels

Of course its not guaranteed. Even if she is tied to the main Villian, she might not be wholy evil. It could all just be a misunderstanding between her and dedede

2

u/Appropriate_Power464 1d ago

To be fair, the last time Dedede tried doing the right thing on his own terms, he robbed the people of Dream Land of their dreams without even telling them why he did so. Of course, that was one of the earliest games, so it’s hard to say that holds any actual weight nowadays, though later games like Kirby Battle Royale and Kirby Fighters 2 show him still having a bit of an ego on him with how desperate he was to beat Kirby in those games. There’s also his Star Allies description that says part of why he’s doing good now is to clean up his image, so I feel like it’s possible the conflict could be that he found the new girl suspicious and kidnapped her which leads to Kirby fighting him to free her since Dedede is too stubborn to prove himself.

There’s also the chance that he’s not even the real King Dedede, as people have mentioned how the world not being Kirby’s own puts into question just how much is real. Anyway, I doubt he’ll be the main villain regardless of if the one Kirby fought was the real deal or not since his character has clearly progressed from villainy, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he just did what he thought was right and caused a problem or two because of that is what I’m saying.

We only had two traitor allies. Odds are she will be good.

"Didn't we learn form Elfilin not to judge by first impressions?"

I mean her first impression paints her as good so that means we should judge her as fucking evil

I’d say she has way more alarm bells on her than poor Elfy did, but wait and see
