[The rule 63 has some, but not all of the stories done. I was going to release it today and do the other parts after, but it feels a little unfair. I wasn't happy with the quality of some parts.

I can't apologize enough for being so late with it. This will be many times larger than any other lewdbin though, so I hope that helps partially make up for it.]

You have a dream about a very familiar aura. Things become clearer. You can get a sense of what’s going on. The aura, one you think you’ve known all your life, is dancing. It’s trying to impress other auras. It’s tired, hot, but having fun. There's a constant thumping that makes it bounce. It's catchy.

It feels like you have a lot of roots in common with it. It’s an aura that you feel safe under. Protective, cool, always knowing what’s going on.

But not right now. It seems intimidated, worried. It’s in unfamiliar territory, surrounded by strangers. It doubts if it wants to stay here or just give up and go home.

You think you can help it. Or at least nudge it.

The aura is like a strange glass of coloured water. When you reach out and touch it, it’s like you dropped a different colour in. it swirls and mixes. That won’t last forever, since her strong yellow aura will continue to increase and overflow from her glass, but it’ll affect it for today.

The aura stops for a second. You can feel a familiar warmth, and a sudden memory. She’s looking down at this annoying brat. Well, she called it a brat, anyway. She’s jealous. It takes all her attention now, and he gets better grades, helps around the house like doing cooking, and just making you look bad in general.

So she decided to play a prank on it. She has it all planned out and ready to go. But as she’s getting it ready, she sees the brat coming at her with some pudding. She loves pudding. The brat knew. He made it just for her to say thanks for being the best sister ever.

He got upgraded to twerp, and the prank was cancelled.

The aura suddenly feels out of place where it is. She’s homesick. She decides to leave. As she exits the back door, she finds the alley surprisingly dark and isolated. She’s cold and a little scared. She feels ashamed of her fear

Fear is normal. It’s okay. It’s healthy, even. But you don’t want her to be scared. You give her your courage, and stay vigilant in looking out for her. It strains you to keep your sense alert and sharp. This whole exercise is strange and difficult.

She feels a renewed sense of courage. But it’s your courage. You feel a bit more worried for the time being. It’s going to be an uncomfortable, worrisome night. But feeling her march face-first into the blizzard of fear and having the courage to proceed anyway, touches your heart. You think she needed that.

She moves forward down the alley. As she does, you keep ahead, seeing what’s there. It’s a good thing too. You can feel a few that make you feel uncomfortable. The biggest one is standing around, looking for opportunities to get revenge on....anything. Society, maybe. It’s hard to tell. It’s directionless. But you definitely don’t like it.

She isn’t aware of it, though.

You try your best to channel as much empathy and love as you

“Hey! Mainlander” The voice yells out. “You lost?”

“Just leaving.” She pushes on, walking right by it.

She’s visibly uncomfortable. Usually that makes this aura angry or uncaring, but not so much this time. She didn’t do anything. She’s just some girl going about her night. Girls like her don’t leave clubs like this alone without friends or a date unless something bad happened. “Whatever. Let’s go hit up the casino.” It leaves with it’s friends.

The familial aura continues on. It’s got a renewed sense of courage, nostalgia, and just plain fresh air making it feel better already. Still, there’s a longing to belong somewhere here. You can sense it trying to decide between going straight home, finding comfort from someone friendly, or finding a place to rest.

But those thoughts aren’t really what’s showing in the aura. It’s showing more emotional things. A change in direction in general in life. It’s strange how these sorts happen at times like this. She doesn’t know where to go to figure herself out. She's at a

You reach out and touch her aura. You think about all the times your big sister helped you out. She’s always known what to do, how to handle things, and taught you so much. She’s probably the best big sister on the planet. And if you’re being honest, a big part of why you try to look out for your little brother so much is because you want to live up to her example. Minus the ‘twerp’ name calling and teasing, that is.

She feels a renewed sense of self confidence. Maybe she doesn’t always make the best choices, but she’s got her head on straight in general. She’ll figure herself and life out.
She also has a little urge to see what sort of pokemon are around home. The aura feels renewed, stronger, and on a new path.

You wake up. You have no idea how much time has passed, or if you were dreaming or something more or what.

“Morning!” Hana’s smiling face greets you. “Umm, I wasn’t watching you sleep or anything. I just happened to look at the same time you woke up.”

You didn’t think she was. At least, until now. “How’d you sleep?”

She plays with her hair while smirking. “Satisfied. But I could give you a ‘good morning’ if you want.”

“Like breakfast or something?”

“Well, breakfast for one of us...” She twirls her hair some more.

She must mean she’d make you a special breakfast and have none for herself. “Oh no. I’d hate it if everyone didn’t get their fill.”

Hana stumbles over her works for a bit at that comment. She seems to be in agreement about that, though. She moves to quickly wake up Laki for some reason. By the time she does though, you’re already up and working on breakfast for everyone.

Gobble comes to help. He’s eager to dive right in. He almost has too much enthusiasm. He’s grabbing different spices and handing the to you, and working on all the advanced stuff. However you set the tone here will affect how he approaches other things in the future.

We should make Gobble a cook book. A bunch of basic stuff done up in pictures he can follow with lots of blank pages for him or us to add to later.

“That’s great, Gobble.” You say, taking the spice he hands you. “Good idea. A dash...-no, small dash- of this is perfect.”

He frowns. He already added in much more than a dash.

“Don’t worry. There’s a secret. We can counteract that with a little sweetness or something acidic.”

He’s eager to fix the mistake and grabs a lemon.

“Perfect!” You pat him on the head. He beams. For a second you think he even glows, but that’s probably your imagination. You gather everyone up and serve breakfast.

“Yummy as always!” Keira says, scarfing it down. Gobble looks up at you excitedly at that comment, and you nod and give him another pat. He’s usually much more relaxed, but he’s full of energy with this.

Laki stretches and yawn. She’s not much of a morning person. “Ready to get those shards and recipes at the temple?”

“Yeah, let’s go!”

You and your group pack up and get going. Your habit of letting your pokemon walk outside of their balls seems to be rubbing off on the others, because you notice them doing the same a lot more lately. You’ve got a small army on the road.

Bella hops from shoulder to shoulder. From you to Laki to Hana, Keira, and finally settling on riding Tropius. It doesn’t seem to mind.

The walk seems pretty short. You’re halfway there before you realize it.

You think about the recent events. Your strange dream, Laki’s crying, Gobble’s teetering on the edge of a transformation, your new pokemon. There’s a lot going on right now. Now might be a good time to talk to someone

You give Vulpix the occasional comment and nod, trying to make sure she feels welcome. She seems to appreciate that. She’s still a little cautious. When Gobble approaches her to chat again, she looks and walks away from him, though.

He sighs dejectedly, but lets it go.

You want to comfort him, but you aren’t sure what to say at the moment. While you think of that, you turn your attention to Keira. She smiles back.

“Hey Keira, can I pick your brain?”

She holds her head defensively. “That’s a mainlander expression, right? Because that’s only for a very specific kind of body preparation for the great beyond and it wouldn’t be appropriate for you to perform it on me.”

You tell her all about your dream. As much as you can remember, anyway. She listens and nods the entire time, waiting until you’re entirely finished.

“So, what do you think? Is that sort of thing possible?”

“Is it possible to astral project? Yeah!” She nods enthusiastically. There’s a slight suspicion to her eyes though. They’re normally the size of dinner plates at everything, so it’s easy to spot. “But did you develop it just out of nowhere after already getting a healing ability? That’s not really likely. It was probably just a dream.”

“You think so?”

She shrugs. “Most aura masters need to exercise a lot of control. They do all sorts of things like special diets and celibate lifestyles. There are a lot of debates about what works best. I just don’t think it’s something you fall into by accident.”

Keira seems to have a strange tone now. You think back to how you found out she was a little jealous of your healing ability. You don’t think she’d let that get in the way of her honest thoughts, though.

You look back to Gobble. He looks back up to you.

“How are you doing, Sous-Chef Gobble?”

He instantly becomes full of energy. It’s almost at the level of Belladonna when she gets the right attention.

“You know I love you no matter what, right?”

Hana and Laki’s ears both perk at that, but they quickly turn their attention away on understanding who you’re talking to.

He nods, but he’s got a question on his face. What brought that on?

“Well, because. I just think that you should know.”

He continues to look up at you, but ultimately he concludes you’re just being great to him.

“Gobble, you’re not holding off on evolving, are you?”

He looks up again. He scratches his cheek. You’re not good at reading body language, but you know your own pokemon well enough to know that’s a tell. He’s keeping something from you. But the more you look at him, the more you think it’s something else.

“Wait. You’re trying to evolve, but you can’t quite do it?”

He gives you a look, asking you to keep it down. He twists his head to see if anybody heard that. Vulpix did, and she looks away defiantly again.

Gobble slumps. You put a hand on his shoulder. “Sorry, buddy. I didn’t know it was something you’re sensitive about. We’ll figure it out together, okay?”

He looks so embarrassed. You wish you had something else to offer. But he looks glad you’re being so nice about it. You give him another pat.

Before you know it, you’re at the temple, dressed in robes, and in a large room with a huge brass brazier. The Fire priest, Keira, and Laki are all there, along with some lower ranking acolytes.

“The ceremony is simple. Retrieve your shard from the fire, and when it cools enough, hold it and feel the heat into into your hands. Use this time to reflect on your passions. Some think about times they should have controlled their anger. Others wish they had summoned righteous anger to stand up for what they believe in. Others look for motivation or inspiration to finish or start something they only talk about. There’s no wrong answer, except for apathy. The hotter the shard is when you start, the more heat it gives your inner flame.”

Laki is taking this all very seriously. She nods and loses herself in deep reflection, getting ready to retrieve her shard with a pair of metal tongs.

You look at your shard in the fire.

>Wait, you have some questions (write-in)

You decide to do the same as Laki, and retrieve it with tongs. Once it’s had a short time to cool off, she grabs it, and so do you.

It hurts. It won’t leave a serious burn or anything, but boy does that smart.

“Feel the heat. The warmth. Fire is the energy of life. Fire is the fuel of passion, love, anger, motivation! It’s the warmth of a mother's hug and the burning hatred of a bitter rivalry. What you feel now is the intensity of whatever best reflects your inner flame. Is it an anger you wish to tame, or a kindling you wish to ignite?”

You consider what he says and ponder, what do you want to do with this heat?

Baka Herb is getting just a little old, let's at least recognize when Hana is offering a blowjob.

>>1695843

I dont recall Herb having any real bitterness towards Jane. If anything we've always tried to be kind to her despite her suspicions

But I like

All of these.
I don't think Herb is that bitter about anything, frustrated, maybe. And he's already doing better on assertiveness, let's not go overboard.

You reflect on where you need some passion the most. The truth is something that makes you a little uncomfortable. It’s in the bedroom. You have two girlfriends and you’ve never even had one before. And you’re really feeling under pressure, now that they’re getting more...comfortable with your body. The idea that you need to be some sort of sexual machine as a man is bad enough, but having to keep up with two girls like this? It’s intimidating. It’s scary. You’re in a weird place with confronting your sexual urges, fears, needs, and wants, and this situation is pecking away at that. You have a hard time with situations where you let people down. Combining that with a part of yourself you have those other discomforts with is a lot to handle.

And so you put all the passion you can into hyping your libedo up.

The ceremony ends, and you’re escorted back to a change room to put on your regular clothes. WHen you come out, Laki is waiting.

You grab Laki, pull her in by the small of her back, and give her a big, passionate kiss. She freezes in surprise, but quickly falls into it. She goes from passive surprise and a high-pitched, quiet whimper, to a more low, full bodied moan and dancing her tongue on yours. Oh wow!

“What brought that on?”

“I couldn’t resist.” You admit.

She blushes then punches you in the arm.“Psh. Come on.”

You smack her on the rear. You don’t think you’ll act like that often, but this one time felt appropriate. She laughs in surprise.

You meet up with the others, then go to the kitchens. You failed the test of spice, but they said they’d teach you other things.

A stressed girl a little older than you hurriedly works several dishes at once. She rushes over the kitchen, barely acknowledging your existence. You turn to Keira and she shrugs. The Fire Priest approaches from behind and whispers to you. You didn’t even know he was capable of whispering. “She’s got a bit of a temper. That’s why she joined in the first place. But she can cook a meal that’ll bring a lesser man to his knees.”

She finishes stirring a stirfry, and finally turns up to look at you and your friends.

“You Herb?” She almost spits out the toothpick in her mouth.

You nod.

“Whadya want to learn?”

You think. Bella’s new potiential makes her very sensitive to things she absorbs. A special meal for her might be a good idea. Something with a lot of fat might help Gobble. You also remember the Electric Temple telling you about Stelitsi, a dish brought in by invaders from a long time ago. They were driven off, but the meal stuck around. It’s good to give to pokemon as a held item. They nibble it down and regain health. They sell it on the islands, but it’s pricey. You might be able to make some money that way.

>Something good for plant pokemon
>Something with a lot of fat

Honestly the best choice right now, we've got Baco Bread for Gobble which I wouldn't mind asking if we can prepare more of it before we go.

>Something good for plant pokemon

Maybe this as well? I bet Bella wouldn't mind having her own special dish every now and again, but I kinda want to see what the Grass Temple would have for that.

>>1696018
>Something good for plant pokemon
Been awhile since we've dotted on Bella and she did a good job being in charge last time.

It’s difficult to come up with something. You want to learn everything they could possibly teach you. For now though, you’ll settle with something for Gobble.

“I’d like to learn something with a lot of fat in it.”

She chews the toothpick and looks at Gobble. “Makes sense.”

“And can Gobble watch and learn? He’s my little Sous Chef.”

She raises an eyebrow. “You’re teaching a Munchlax to cook.”

You nod your head. “Yeah! He’s really good at it.”

“I’ve personally seen a snorlax empty a dumpster into it’s mouth.”

“Well, Gobble likes to cook. He’s got a refined palate.”

She takes the toothpick out of her mouth, and looks like she’s going to launch into something. Before she can, a flame shoots up under one of her dishes. She starts cursing.

You pat Gobble on the head to reassure him. He got a little offended, but he seems better now.

She turns back after getting that under control. “Fine. I’ve got just the dish. Most of the time it’s requested by girls trying to get some real boobs.” She makes a subtle nod to Keira. Keira just smiles. “But it’s just fat. Nothing special. Gimme an hour and we can get started.”

“Can we use the other stove while we wait?”

“Huh? Sure. Just don’t get in my way.” She get back to work.

Huh. So you’ve got an hour to spend and access.

You flip up a spatula. After spending so much time cooking outdoors with fires and limited cookware, working in a kitchen feels like a dream. “Come on Gobble, let me explain how it all works.”

The chef looks back at you, but can’t spare too much attention.

You point out where everything is located, and give him an overview of why. There are a few things you comment on about what you’d prefer instead of the way they’ve arranged it, but other things are universal.

“Now, based on that, where do you think the colander would be?”

Gobble thinks for a moment, the points up.

“Very good, Gobble!”

“Hey. Pass that, will you?” The chef asks as she gets some boiling pasta off an element.

Hana is standing closest to it. She takes the colander down, visually confirms that the chef is looking at her, then tosses it over.

The chef catches it, but she scowls. “Get out.”

“What?”

“You never, ever throw things in the kitchen. I told you to pass it. Get out.”

“Sorry.” Hana says, moving towards the exit.

“Come on!” Laki protests. “She won’t do it again. Just calm down.”

“I’m calm” She rushes past Laki, clearly flustered as she tries to keep up with the many dishes on the go. “But I’m not changing my mind. My kitchen, my safety, my rules. I don’t bend on safety rules.”

“Are you going to let her kick Hana out?” Laki asks you.

“It’s okay.” Hana says from outside the doorway. “It was my fault.”

“Raise your voice like that again and I’m kicking you out too.” The chef says to Laki.

Laki opens her mouth. Something unpleasant is going to come out.

>Sorry, but the chef is right
>Take Laki aside. She’s going to get you all kicked out
>Make a distraction to try to diffuse the situation
>Lakis right. Hana won’t do it again. Ask the chef to reconsider.
>Something else

>>1696313
>>Take Laki aside. She’s going to get you all kicked out

>>1696313
>>Sorry, but the chef is right
rules of the kitchen are serious business.

to chefs at least

Ideally we would defend our girls in this case, but the chef is just too right for any defense to be possible.

>>1696332
This. Not our domain to make rules in. Either we all go or none of us do.

>>1696313
>Sorry, but the chef is right

>>1696313
>>Take Laki aside.
>Explain

How would she feel if someone threw weights or equipment? She's an athlete she should understand that.

>>1696313

Her kitchen, her rules. Reassure our girls with a smile and thumbs up (Sous-Chef mimics)

>>1696313

“She’s right.” You tell Laki taking her aside. “It isn’t personal. It’s the rules. How would you feel if someone threw weights in the gym?”

“I wouldn’t kick them out the first time!” She says.

“It’s really okay.” Hana motions from the doorway.

“It’s not personal.” You try to point out. “It’s just the rules. And safety is a huge issue in a kitchen.”

Laki really doesn’t like that, but she backs off. She gives you a look. Not hatred or anger, -although there’s definitely anger in it,- but what you think is respect. You know this isn’t the last you’ll hear about it, but you think that Laki understands, even if she’s upset. “Whatever. You’re making up for this later.”

You really hate ending a conversation like that, but you’re sure you can make it better later. And you know Laki. She has a temper, but she sometimes feels bad about letting it get the best of her. You don’t know if this is one of those times, but you don’t want to press her if she’s trying to end the conversation here.

“Ready?” The chef asks.

She teaches you the recipe. If you’re being honest, you probably didn’t need a tutor for this at all. A list of ingredients and a rough idea of the final product is all you’d need to put it together, and even then you probably wouldn’t need the entire list. It’s a nice beginner lesson for Gobble, though.

At least, that’s what you thought right up to the end. She shows you a last second twist that brings the whole thing all together.

“Oh! I see! That’s really clever.”

“Nah. You can do it without that. It’s just my personal touch.”

“Well, I think it’s brilliant.” You end up blurting out. “Where’d you come up with that?”

The two of you talk shop for a good long while. She ends up asking you a lot and you learn a few things yourself. Gobble watches you both, trying to keep up with the conversation. You’re not sure how much he absorbs.

She adjusts her hat. “So anyways, the real secret to getting those just right is-”

“Ahem.” Laki taps her foot.

“Just one more minute. I’ll prepare this for everyone tonight.” You both tell and plead with Laki before you turn back to the chef. “I have to get going, but can we exchange numbers?”

“Yeah.” She takes out her pokedex. “You know your stuff.”

“I appreciate that. And what you taught me.”

Laki coughs again, much louder this time.

You bow as you begin to excuse yourself “Thank you.”

“You too.” She bows back. She looks like she forgot about that. “Let me know how it turns out with the campfire.”

After you say your goodbyes in the fire temple, you and the girls had back down towards the beach. You check in with Hana and she again reassures you she understands about the kitchen. She’s embarrassed that it became such a big deal.

“Exchanging numbers?”

“She was teaching me a lot about cooking.”

“Uh huh.” Laki says. “I should teach her about getting her ass kicked.”

“Laki” Keira laughs. She was a firekeeper.”

Laki stumbles over her own reaction for a second. “Well, whatever.”

“What’s a firekeeper?” You whisper to Hana. She shrugs.

“You don’t know? They’re a sect of Fire temple clergy that pursue a passion singlemindedly. They swear off a lot of things that would distract them, including sex. She’s celibate.”

“How awful.” Hana whispers.

Keira pretends not to hear that.

Laki is just out of earshot. “Come on. Let’s go to the next island.”

You feel like maybe it’s time for another talk with Laki. Last time things got derailed before you could get to the heart of the issue.

[That's the last update for tonight.

I hate sounding like a broken record, but the rule63 bin is really on the way. It's a very long one.

I appreciate everyone's patience while I get used to my new hours. I've been meaning to run a lot more and keep running into new things or just plain being exhausted. It's settling, though. The nights I'm running always end up being nights I'm doing other things at the same time, so update speed gets slowed down too. Anyway, I want to cut back on this habit and devote more time to the quest. I think about it a lot at work now that I've had time to get used to it and find periods where I can let my mind wander.

I hope you have a great night.]

Hah, Fem Polu is great! That was my favorite R63 after Spice. Very cute stories, Gobble.

>>1699332
Alright, I'm home, time for a more in-depth feedback.

I really like how you've written these with their whole lives in mind, not just changing their bodies and sexualities. It leads to a whole lot of questions about how their lives went differently, and I'm likely to ask a fair amount about that. If you're planning on those things being the focus in future bins, don't worry about it.

The first thing I notice is Laki's winnings. Are these pokemon battle winnings or athletics winnings?

Line 27 lees>leans

What's Spice's birth name?

Line 73 you're>your

How come Spice is sensitive about her cooking ability? Or, rather, why isn't she confident?

Does Spice have the same team? Are their genders swapped too? What are their names if so?

Line 91 learn>lean

Line 114 this this > this thing.

Spice getting DP'd by her boyfriends she pinned when?

Line 244 t's>it's

I take it fem-Polu has been influenced in another direction by that movie? Kinda valley girl?

Line 317 ..> . or ...

Line 321 top> bottom

I'm used to people wearing a swimsuit under my wetsuit, so if that's not the case, there could probably be a line about going commando at the beginning of the les-bin to avoid confusion.

The wetsuit's mechanics don't quite line up with how I remember taking off wetsuits going, so it reads kind of confusingly. Not a hugely important part of the bin, but it's there.

I NEED MORE SELF-DISCOVERY AND BISEXUALS

Fem Gary is cute, that's some fine R63 right there.

Oh, and is it weird to anyone else that "Hanna" is used as a boy name? Or is that just Hana's bad luck carrying over?

So, if this is rule63 equivalent, does that mean polu is low key gay for herb?

>>1700436
It's only gay if they kiss. Everything else goes.

>>1700452
Kissing a guy isn't gay if they don't have facial hair and you close your eyes and you whisper "no homo" every time your lips part. Then it's just lips.

Remember: it's only definitely gay if the balls touch.

Something just occurred to me. Togetic and Roselia both evolve via Shiny Stone. What happens if we find one? If both Plant Daughter and (potential) Adopted Egg Daughter want it, what does daddy do?

>>1701148
Bella.

>>1701151
Not if she hasn't finished learning moves.

Speaking of which, is like Gobble to learn screech, stockpile, swallow, and snatch before we evolve him.

>>1701148
>>1701151
>>1701256
She is Herb's daughter

Has the cyborg's egg even interacted with him once?

>>1701304
Casualties of having so many characters.

>>1701304
I remember Togepi having issues listening to Hana, using moves before she was instructed to.

>>1701504
It just wasn't necessary at the moment, now that we're going to be spending more time with them I'm hoping to see some fun interactions with all our teams. Wonder what Wailord is like casually, most of what we've seen of the poor thing is when it's in pain or as just transport. Chatot and Meowth seemed like friendly pokemon and bergmite is an unknown at the moment.

Kiera's team hasn't gotten much time simply because she hasn't done much fighting, Cutiefly and Chatot conniving together to play pranks on the lowly ground bound pokemon would be fun.

Hana's Togepi seemed pretty hype about battling from what little I remember. Kinda sad Herb passed out during Laki and Hana's gym fight together. Seemed like they worked well together. I could see Tirtouga and Mace getting along, it'd be funny to see the sea turtle get called a youngster. Chinchou seemed pretty skittish, I sense that we haven't been shocked by the little cutie for the last time...
I kinda hope Glaceon isn't a princess like Sorbet(I know we haven't named her yet)

Still gonna root for Gobble and Sorbet pairing, not sure what the problem is really myself. Maybe she's insulted because he wanted her to get captured without a fight?

Kinda sad we never got to see much of Claire's team besides the Gardevoir in the first quest.

>>1701256
Moves don't work that way in Gobblequest. They can learn them at any time with training and effort. Were you here for the last one?

>>1703758
Claire's Alakazam was mentioned like twice, and they all made cameos to supercharge the mojo at the temple with Robin. That's all I can think of.

>>1703769
Since finding out about porygon, yes.

The thing is, we've always been able to teach our pokemon the moves on their move list. Powerful or high-level moves are more difficult to teach. TM moves even more so. And breeding moves even more so than that. I dont think we've ever tried teaching a move that only a previous evolution is supposed to be able to learn. I'd kind of like to get word-of-gobble on it.

>>1704012
We taught a cow to surf. I think we're good.

[Thanks. I'll work on correcting those issues in the bin. As for the wet suit, I looked up a bunch of wetsuit wearing surfers and others and a surprising amount of them go naked, or at least bral-ess.

>So, if this is rule63 equivalent, does that mean polu is low key gay for herb?
A little

>Oh, and is it weird to anyone else that "Hanna" is used as a boy name? Or is that just Hana's bad luck carrying over?
Being Hanna is suffering. The universe hates her
>Since finding out about porygon, yes.

>The thing is, we've always been able to teach our pokemon the moves on their move list. Powerful or high-level moves are more difficult to teach. TM moves even more so. And breeding moves even more so than that. I dont think we've ever tried teaching a move that only a previous evolution is supposed to be able to learn. I'd kind of like to get word-of-gobble on it.

Yeah, you can teach Gobble pre-evolution moves

>whats laki's fetishes
Power dynamics. She's going to default into riding/domming whoever she's with, or get soft-dommed by Herb and his handholding ways.

>Are snorlax anime big or game big? (Three person bed or two)
Depends on the specific Snorlax

>So is Jane a one pump chump like Johannes, or is Spice just that good?
Both]

Thanks for answering!

Being able to teach the by-previous-evolution moves freely is a relief. I think Gobble's gonna love Stockpile/Swallow.

Thread tonight?
