finally got some time to finish these guys up! which is sort of ironic considering I started these because I wanted to draw Malleus with a Dragapult, and then I just didn't for a million years!
Malleus has the aforementioned Dragapult, except it's a super special non-canon color Dragapult (like an anime-only form that you could get in-game exclusively through some limited-time event where you have to show up in-person at a specific location in Japan) (it has some wacky overpowered exclusive move/form and the OT is listed as Malleus) (so like that kind of ridiculous specialness) (Leona is extremely salty about this). also hoards and hoards of Dreepy. Dreepy LOVE Malleus. they take naps on his horns inbetween begging him to throw them across the island at mach speeds.
Lilia has a Drampa and a bunch of Woobat that he hasn't actually caught, they just follow him around in swarms because they sense a kinship with him. (also breaking my own rule again to say that he had a Mawile in the past, because...I just really wanted to give him a Mawile...)
Sebek has Sandile for obvious reasons, and also a Pikachu that bullies him relentlessly. :(
Silver has a shiny Corvisquire; I really went back-and-forth on also giving him an Aegislash, but...hm. those pokedex entries though. he can stick with just one for now.
(I hadn't planned on the shiny for him, but after I'd decided on the Corvisquire line and was looking it up for reference, I realized that shiny Rookidee is gold and then turns silver when it evolves and I lost my entire goddamn mind)

jews: hey so this word is so important that historically it was only ever said once a year on the holiest day of the year and only by one guy. this tradition stopped after the fall of the second temple and everybody has forgotten how to pronounce it, and it's been deemed unpronounceable. now, we use a word to replace it, but you're not allowed to say it outside of prayer or reading torah aloud. any printed material that has it written must be buried in a graveyard like a human, it can't simply be thrown out
christians: *treat the word like a fucking trivia question, have songs that just mispronounce say it on repeat for the entire chorus, make shitty ugly ass earrings with the word written on it, include the word in fun translation exercises like it's just like any other word*

this gotta be one of the most cultural tone-deaf things i’ve ever read - specially coming from a gringa who who has lived in brazil for a decade
first of, the “sending the kids home earlier” isn’t about the staff watching the matches, it’s about everyone. world cup culture in brazil is huge - yes, even after 2014. it’s about meeting your friends and family, going to bars, someone else’s house or any public space and watching the match together. it’s, as it’s in most latinoamerican countries, about the community. sending kids home to watch the game isn’t about the school staff taking half a day off, it’s about the staff being able to feel the football atmosphere at home, with their families. it’s about doing the same for kids - going home earlier so they can be with their siblings, parents and grandparents (most of who will else be home earlier) and enjoy the next 2 hours or so together. it’s about bonding and community and it’s quite depressing a journalist can’t see that.
second, this woman is british… anyone from a place that puts everything on hold for a fucking coffin should be forbidden to talk about other countries’ days off.
third: vai embora então 👩❤️💋👩
