 =====Pokeymans=====
+It's a game about dogfighting if your dogs were sentient and wanted to fight.  I don't approve of dogfighting IRL btw, but I do approve of Valerie the Dachshund escaping capture for 600 days in the Australian bush.
 My favorite pokemon is Haunter, cuz it was the only ghost type, aside from baby Gastly, in Red/Blue/Yellow you could get if you were a friendless child with no link cable.  So I grew attached to its disembodied grabby hands and gumless teeth.
-I learned to draw as a kid by copying NOT TRACING the pokemon in my 151 handbook.  I drew a Flareon and some kid in my class accused me of tracing.  And from then on I vowed to prove them ALL wrong and never ever trace.

 [[https://pokemonshowdown.com|The best thing to play in high school typing class]] cuz it's a browser game that focuses on quick PvP battles. I always play the random singles of any generation, I love not having to make a team, and just relying on general moveset knowledge.
-At one point in school I played so much randoms that I ended up on top of the leaderboard, and had randos taunting me in my dms.  It wasn't necessarily by skill that I ended up highscoring.  More that I played a game inbetween typing one paragraph of homework LOL

 The main con is that almost everything about the game, including the game itself, is hosted on their 100k user Discord server.  A lot of Pokemon fan games are like this, I guess to avoid Nintendo litigation.
 ===PokeRogue===
-A browser game that is 99% battling and catching, with a 200 level story mode, a daily challenge, and infinite mode.  You can exchange points to unlock special moves and abilities for pokemon exclusive to this game.
+A browser game that is 99% battling and catching, with a 200 level story mode, a daily challenge, and infinite mode.  You can exchange points gained by playing each mode, to unlock special moves and abilities for Pokemon that don't usually have those in the official game.
 Some may think it's mind-numbing, but this is ADHD heaven for me.  I love rogue-like/lite games, I love slow progression, and I love customizing and min-maxing my team with silly gimmicks like "bugs only".
 The game IS very slow to load and run however on my potato PC and rural internet.  I believe there is an offline version that performs better because it does not need to save data to da cloud.  But the online version is cool cuz they have community events and lots of updates to implement new moves and events.
