ok so when i can I've been playing pokemon ultra moon which is the newest game. I've been trying really hard to avoid spoiling any of it for myself but because my hands are super fucked i decided because i can't keep playing much i will just spoil it for myself a bit. and I'm. soooo glad i did.
because mimikyu (who i had been raising on my team anyway) actually has it's own unique z move (basically a very powerful nuke move you can use one of per battle) and it's so fucking cute
it's super cute because mimikyu's whole thing is that it's a ghost who's jealous of pikachu and it dresses up like one and the whole z move is about how proud your trainer is of it!!
like watch:
none of the other z moves have interaction with your trainer, they are basically just a long animation of the pokemon using it, but in mimikyu's your trainer smiles and gives mimikyu a thumbs up!! and i guess parental pride is my achilles heel for some reason so it really just gets me
it's so cute that i cried a little bit using it the first time, straight up (ty hormones)
i just love cute pokemon so much (in fact i had a big issue where the cute inkay i had on my team evolved into the very uncute malamar and i was really conflicted about leaving it behind bc it was my second pokemon caught but i ended up replacing it with a cute one because that's the most important factor in playing pokemon)
