#needleposting

I just remembered I have free will and can post whatever I want … FINALIST GIJINKAS!!!

Book is in the works 👍 and I’m currently in the middle of making a MASSIVE document of every human design that could be made of object show characters I like so I can visualize these designs easier. Feel free to give me ideas, requests, or critiques!!

I’ll probably post the backlog of drawings I made for that daily donut ships challenge soon, but don’t expect to see it immediately(the queue feature is so nice).

Catch y’all later!!

something about needle i noticed while rewatching bfdia is that her people-pleasing has always been there. her arc from bfdia 16-18 just forced it into the spotlight. in bfdia 11 especially, i noticed how she seeks flower’s approval and tries to dissuade others from speaking their minds.

so, we know she’s naturally like this. perhaps she’s already realized that no one sees her for her, though they haven’t made it painfully obvious yet. she’s clever; she could figure it out. or she doesn’t have explanation, the words to say that, but recognizes that her most important trait is slapping people and saying “don’t call me needy.” either way, the others know the capabilities she possesses. 

they want to use her. they want to take that strength for themselves. and needle wants to please them, because what is she if not useful?

her selflessness, normally a positive trait, backfired. it harmed her. being fought over not as a person but as a useful asset taught her to not value herself, or subconsciously put that idea in her head, that people would only value her or love her if she was useful.

“In my professional competitive Pokemon opinion I feel like TB would have a good amount of steel types but compared to GB who’d be mono steel he would have a team member or two that steps out of that line. Needle is a fighting type trainer mega lucario is her ace. Idk if she’d use the normal one or the Z mega I feel like she’d use the normal one bc she’s needle she punches and kicks shit all the time, miss her with that stronger special attack stat! Book has a single morpeko.

Despite having the type disadvantage to both her competitors I BELIEVE IN HER!!! (Technically it’s only needle now but idc book is the favorite to win atm I’m pretty sure)

I have to think really hard abt tb’s ace because there’s a lot of good picks. In early gens he so would have ran self destruct/explosion electrode… I think his ace could be magnezone ? I can also see him and gb using paradox pokemon because they’re like that + tennis ball actually time travels so

(Insert RIBOMBEEEEEE clip)

book’s morpeko versus tennis ball’s swords dance boosted iron valiant sacred sword. Tennis ball would thrive in gen 3 singles ou and the thought makes me sick”

One of my friends then asked for Leafy’s team. I responded:

“Ok first off type null > Silvally easy. She would have a lot of pokemon that evolve from friendship and obviously grass types. Any member of the arboliva line probably. Anyway all of her pokemon have return and I imagine a hard counter to whatever one might use on complete accident.

Ngl firey leafy and teardrop automatically complete the fire grass water core that’s awesome, and if you compare them to red green and blue from the manga …… oh yeah it’s all coming together(green in some adaptions is insane and completely independent from society, like Leafy)

I’ll think of more later but Coiny and Pin are ABSOLUTELY disgusting and the only time they stop using matching pokemon is during the mecha pin arc. luvdisc, plusle and minun, volbeat and illumise, etc etc. Coiny for sure has a Meowth by him at all times but idk who pin would have solo…

I said later but some ideas just come to me . Snowball would help grassy raise his starter pokemon. Snowball himself would use a lot of ice and fighting types but specifically galarian darmanitan”

Needless(don’t call me Needy!) to say I had so much fun I NEEDED to cover a page in drawings. Don’t mind the ominous black blotches, that was spoiler censorship for my friends! Whole, uncensored page below:
