AWKWARD ZOMBIE

Good, I'm not the only one who noticed that.

If I don't want my ideas for edits to be taken first, I have to go beyond Entei and nowi.

Despite being the friend you spend the most time with, Shauna always came off as a complete waste of space.

Katie, are you saying you didn't order the puny NPCs to call you Excellency?
IT JUST FITS.

THEIR YELLOW HANDS ARE GETTIN' ALL OVER ME

The spam bots have gone as far as to spam in topics.

Really, just about all of your rivals seem to be... well, not rivals. >.> There are four of them, and you battle the Pokemon Professor as many times as you battle most of them. They all seem nice enough and everything, but not really rivals.

Although, it may be coming off from playing Black & White where you battled one, or more, of your rivals after each badge.

Now, I don't speak russian, but I think that SCP just said something about two of our members, I think... Nefarious Bear and OA? It's hard to tell.
Sir SCP, could you repeat that for us?

I have no idea what an onderwerp is, but it sounds adorable.

A SCP claiming to be from Australia, speaking Dutch and posting Russian links? I'm intrigued and annoyed. Mostly annoyed.


If you look it up, prepare to be underwhelmed.

I know what to call my next Swirlix.

Hey all, I'm not sure if this is the best place to do this but...?

I've been quietly following Katie's comics for a long time, and this one is adorable, of course, and made me giggle because I went through the same thing.

Butlike.

Shauna has brown skin. And I'm really not ok with the whitewashing in the comic. And I want to reach her about this? becauselike I'm sure she didn't intend harm, but for me as a Black person who has been playing pokemon games for a very long time, seeing the diversity in this game was a big deal to me... So this kind of hurts coming from an artist I've looked up to for so long. :[ I really want to see it fixed. I don't know if she'll ever read this though?

Also omg if you guys do edits like those every week I need to start regularing here. Hehe.

I guess stickying threads doesn't really prevent spambots from posting in them. Too bad.

Whitewashing is a strong term here. I needed to go back and look at character models of Shauna to see that she had a slightly darker skin tone than what Katie had drawn. What I've seen of artwork done of her is a good example of how we place ourselves into characters, especially those drawn simply for those reasons. Depending on who drew Shauna, she appears to float around from white to tan to black. The skin color difference of the three characters in this comic just aren't great enough to note in a piece where a big part of the joke is the character being drawn to look like a caricature.
