    When it comes to nicknames for my own Pokémon, then I just research possible names and references. Names are a notable field of interest of mine, foreign languages and cultures being two other fields of interest. If in doubt, I usually just ask people when I trade with them, but my general knowledge is usually good enough to the point where I recognize most of them.

    might just be a direct refererence to the Ballade: "der Erlkönig" from Johan Wolfgang von Ghoete.

    Yes, "Der Erlkönig" is a poem by Johan Wolfgang von Goethe and was turned into a musical piece by composer Franz Schubert.

    Glad to read. Yes, as a linguist I reserved the right to have some fun in my thread. I've toned the verbosity level down everywhere else though, hah.

    Pick the species of the Pokémon, set the Pokémon's level and set the given EVs to 0, fill in the IVs you know and then try adjusting the EVs until the stats in the calculator match the ones shown on your Pokémon's in-game summary screen.

    Hello, when you say you want to become a translator, would it be like "books/movies" translator, interpret or rather a laws translator or wathever else ? I ask because I have a lot of friends and family members who work in the translation and it's a subject that interest me as a whole.

    Thanks for the question. I would ideally want to start with books and documents. Interpreter is yet another league, since you're doing "live translations". I'm planning on starting with small steps and then maybe branch out further at some point? I hope that answers your question.

    Is that a self-portrait by the way.

    oh well I just read that you didn't draw it, so I guess is it a portrait at all

    It's not, no. It's a reference to a profile picture of Jordy Baan that I used for a while.

    i thought tsv is impossoble in gen 8? How'd you manage it

    Actually i think it's because the pokemon hatched shiny in that person's game, and they give you the egg?
    Max. Optimizer
    Max. Optimizer
    Correct, yes. TSV/ESV hatching doesn't exist anymore, but if an egg is shiny for the person that bred it, it'll stay shiny if that egg gets cloned and traded to another person's file and it'll receive the TSV of the file it hatches on. I just add that information for transparency reasons, it has no real purpose (anymore).

    And, yes, Attack on Titan is still my favorite show ever. Season 3 Part 2 earlier this year was mindblowing with the plot twists. I can't wait to see how Hajime Isayama will manage to find a worthy ending for his magnum opus!

    You're very welcome! And, yes, you're in for a treat. I'm looking forward to reading your thoughts and theories. You'll finally get some answers. :)

    I was so engrossed by the ubiquitous SwSh leaks, I completely forgot to congratulate you for becoming a mod. So proud of you! Also, that avatar rocks! Though I'd have expected Chandelure...

    No worries, you already did a while back. As for the avatar, it was drawn as a custom paid commission by fellow Wi-Fier Inkblot. I went with Litwick because Chandelure would've taken up too much space.
