Tinkatink | Fairy/Steel Scarlet: It swings its handmade hammer around to protect itself, but the hammer is often stolen by Pokémon that eat metal. Violet: This Pokémon pounds iron scraps together to make a hammer. It will remake the hammer again and again until it's satisfied with the result.

Tinkatuff | Fairy/Steel Scarlet: This Pokémon will attack groups of Pawniard and Bisharp, gathering metal from them in order to create a large and sturdy hammer. Violet: These Pokémon make their homes in piles of scrap metal. They test the strength of each other's hammers by smashing them together.

Tinkaton | Fairy/Steel Scarlet: This intelligent Pokémon has a very daring disposition. It knocks rocks into the sky with its hammer, aiming for flying Corviknight. Violet: The hammer tops 220 pounds, yet it gets swung around easily by Tinkaton as it steals whatever it pleases and carries its plunder back home.

I often think about Bertholdt & Armin.

“You all are precious comrades to me. And I intend to kill you.”

Despite Bert blatantly stating his plan to kill Armin & all his former comrades, Armin still had enough empathy and objectivity to understand that, truly, neither of them really had a choice in the atrocities they had to commit.

“Are these the kind of things you saw, Bertholdt?”

Armin carries all of Bert’s memories. In a sense, Bert survives through Armin. Armin doesn’t condemn Bert for the choices he was forced to make, even though Bert’s choices caused direct harm onto Armin’s life, likely because nobody else truly understands Bert’s hopes, desires, dreams, and regrets more than Armin. Likewise, Armin understands that he and Bert are two sides of the same coin. Just as Bertolt destroyed Shiganshina to meet an objective, to protect what little family he had, Armin decimated Liberio for the same reasons.
