I LOOVE Pok\u00e9mon. Its been an interest I\u2019ve had since i was 6 or 7, I remember&nbsp; when I first got this stack of the trading cards, and I fell in LOVE. This was right around 2017-2018 so the sun and moon games had recently come out along with the show for it, which coincidentally are now my favorite games and region now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Theres definitely better games with better graphics (but I really hope there\u2019s a sun and moon remaster at some point that wasn\u2019t as butt as brilliant diamond and shining pearl were I would buy a switch just for that) but there\u2019s just something SPECIAL about it to me. Probably just nostalgia. But I still stand by it being my favorite region. One of the best parts of Pok\u00e9mon to me at least is the world building and I really love how they use it with the Alola region<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Theres these things called regional variants, which its in the name its variants of&nbsp; Pok\u00e9mon based on region, and Alola specifically have SO many I love specifically. Marowack, Ninetails, and Sandslash are probably my favorite Alolan forms but they\u2019re all amazing (ignoring meowth and pursian).<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com\/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQOEiW6dEBHfTbRBUpbfASJbS1C59_lA_T6bwFNY1L3rw&amp;s=10\" alt=\"\" style=\"width:326px;height:auto\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">kantonian (standard) vulpix on the left and alolan vulpix on the right<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Not even just the forms my favorite Pok\u00e9mon are mainly gen 7. Rockruff, Lycanrock, Oricorio, Turinator, the entire litten line, xurkitree,  wishiwashi, THEY WERE COOKING HAPPINESS IN A KETTLE!!!! I cannot emphasize how much I love these. THE LEGENDARIES TOO !! AND MYTHICS!!! Solgaleo will always be my top 5 legendries and all the tapu Pok\u00e9mon. This will always be my idea of peak Pok\u00e9mon it does not get better than this oh my god, I cant get the idea through well enough just typing.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com\/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQ6MNa1Bqx92dYoQY1T89RmWXt8o2MtpmLa_XepBjVgAdZYILL6CuzxUJI&amp;s=10\" alt=\"\" style=\"width:381px;height:auto\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Solgaleo and Lunala, the box legendries for sun\/moon<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>This is a relatively short blog this week but I just really needed to write about pokemon and if I went into the depths of it this would be longer than my last blog.
