For preserving the least toxic and most culturally relevant Tumblr heritage posts.

Image descriptions and plain text captions of written content are expected of all screenshots. Here are some image text extractors (I looked these up quick and will gladly take FOSS recommendations):

-web

-iOS

-android

Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

I made the icon using multiple creative commons svg resources, the banner is this.

Snorlax randomly diverts traffic by napping in the worst place possible.

Fortunately people have alternatives to driving and walking, because predatory birds (and some insects) grow large enough to carry a human.

How big is Pidgey?

[–] WayTooDank@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Bulbapedia says 1', 4 pounds.

Still technically puntable but you're going to have a hell of a sore ankle afterward.

Pidgeotto is 3 feet tall and 66 pounds, it could steal your kids if it wanted to.

They're frequently used in protests!

Imagine somebody unleashing a flock of Wailords in a protest

[–] skulblaka@startrek.website 6 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Considering the relative size of a pokeball and a Wailord, a Wailord is a bomb. Just take your pokeball inside any building you don't want to exist anymore, and release the Wailord.

In lore pokemon can supposedly scale their size which is part of how the ball works (forcing them to miniaturize), but I don't recall any show ever showing unlimited resizing

Just play the poké flute to wake it up. ♫♫♫

[–] JoShmoe@ani.social 3 points 5 months ago

Sure, just wake it up. Its that easy.

Then you have to battle the cranky thing

I named my Snorlax, Israel.

"I'm just going to take a nap here"

"Israel, this is arguably the WORST place you could settle down, you're surrounded by danger!"
