Get Water Pulsed

I know I should be working on other things, but listen...

In the little amount of free time I give myself I've been playing a lot of Pokémon (©2025 Pokémon. ©1995 - 2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. TM, ®Nintendo) now that I got myself an anbernic RG34XX. Neat little device if you wanna play retro games on the go but you're old and senile like me and think that carrying around something that looks like a cutting board with a screen is ridiculous.

I only ever grew up with the Pokémon (©2025 Pokémon. ©1995 - 2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. TM, ®Nintendo) anime and toys, so I never really got into the games proper. I only played Emerald Version (©2025 Pokémon. ©1995 - 2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. TM, ®Nintendo) at school with a friend. So now that I'm a grown ass man I decided to go back to when games were good and play through the first couple of generations for the first time. And I've been having a lot of fun!

However, when fighting to get the Cascade Badge (©2025 Pokémon. ©1995 - 2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. TM, ®Nintendo) I found myself frustrated because I wanted to focus most whatever EXP (©2025 Pokémon. ©1995 - 2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. TM, ®Nintendo) I could get out of this gym on my Ivysaur (©2025 Pokémon. ©1995 - 2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. TM, ®Nintendo) and my Pikachu (©2025 Pokémon. ©1995 - 2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. TM, ®Nintendo), but for whatever reason Misty's (©2025 Pokémon. ©1995 - 2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. TM, ®Nintendo) AI decided it would be funny to specifically react to Pikachu (©2025 Pokémon. ©1995 - 2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. TM, ®Nintendo) in a way that wasn't present with any other Pokémon (©2025 Pokémon. ©1995 - 2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. TM, ®Nintendo) by slamming 2 consecutive Water Pulses (©2025 Pokémon. ©1995 - 2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. TM, ®Nintendo) followed by a Horn Attack (©2025 Pokémon. ©1995 - 2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. TM, ®Nintendo) and a Super Potion (©2025 Pokémon. ©1995 - 2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. TM, ®Nintendo). I at least wanted to get 2 Thundershocks (©2025 Pokémon. ©1995 - 2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. TM, ®Nintendo) in before switching out and have Magikarp (©2025 Pokémon. ©1995 - 2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. TM, ®Nintendo) tank a couple of hits. BUT NO! They just had to make it impossible.

Now, could I have gone for a more efficient strategy? Sure. I could technically just put out my lvl. 20 Ivysaur (©2025 Pokémon. ©1995 - 2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. TM, ®Nintendo) and de-atomize the entire gym. But where's the fun in that? I wanted to do it in this very autistic way for very autistic reasons. And you know what? I fuken did it. And what's more, I got so mad about this that I was compelled to take it all out on Misty (©2025 Pokémon. ©1995 - 2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. TM, ®Nintendo) by doing this.

So take that, you stupid wet sloot with your stupid misaligned hair thing and your stupid stars in your stupid pool inside of your stupid gym. Get Water Pulsed (©2025 Pokémon. ©1995 - 2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. TM, ®Nintendo) and rest in piss, Cerulean City Gym Leader Misty (©2025 Pokémon. ©1995 - 2025 Nintendo/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK inc. TM, ®Nintendo).

Ps. I should do this more. Aside from doing things in sketches with color instead of full paintings to get ideas out quicker, I should start using this as a threat: "If you don't stfu I'll draw you getting railed and pissed on. I can do this, you know. I have the power. Nobody can stop me."
