First morning together~ Delia comes off as very put together and emotionally secure, but she too still has stuff to work on (namely her abandonment issues)
The “Mr Mime is Ash’s dad” theory mildly irks me NOT because I don’t like it or whatever but bc the canon reason Mimey is there is just SO MUCH FUNNER. For plot related reasons Ash dresses up as a Mr Mime in a circus just outside Pallet town but gets kidnapped by Team Rocket. Brock and Misty are like “oh they’ll let him go once they realise he’s not a Pokemon, we should tell Delia that he’s gonna show up at her house in a Mr Mime costume so she isn’t freaked out” but then an ACTUAL Mr Mime shows up at her house before he does and because Delia is as faceblind as her son she mistakes it for him. And this Mr Mime is like “oh I like it here” and starts helping out around the house doing chores in exchange for food. And then when Ash DOES get home he’s like “mom why is there a Mr Mime here” and she goes “oops! Well he helps more around the house than you so I’m keeping him” and does. Mimey is not Ash’s dad. Mimey is his step-brother and canonically the favourite child
Had to take a break to draw something cute and indulgent or else my brain would've popped. Inspired by @yamujiburo's adorable Delias and color art from the manga Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou.
I’ve played Pokémon go consistently since 2016 and it’s really funny how many real people in my community that I’ve met through the game that I otherwise would not have interacted with at all
For example I have a long-standing (and heated) rivalry with a random old man in my area over control of the gym in the park across the street. This guy is famous for his Blissey (annoying because they’re tanky as hell) and without fail if I get knocked out I know there’s a 99% chance his Blissey is going to be waiting for me. When I knock him out I replace it with my Mr. Mime, which I know for a fact is his least favourite Pokémon of all time because he finds them creepy as hell
It’s a friendly rivalry, but also I hate his guts
I pulled a few extra Blissey cards from the Pokémon go tcg set, and next event day I’m going to give him one as a gift. In a sleeve. With a Mr. Mime card hidden behind it :)
