My personal thought is that bigotry is actually born from people who are upset that others are being their own individuals and are not exactly like them, not from people actually being their own individuals. If everyone just accepted that no two people are alike, there wouldn't be bigotry. It exists because people think their own way is the only right way for everyone to be.
that's my thoughts.

And there are plenty of examples in ancient history of things like LGBTQ+ people, people who considered themselves born in the wrong body (back then there weren't "trans" only because those treatments didn't exist, but there WERE people who felt that way), and people who did not consider themselves male or female. It's been documented for a long time; I'm no expert, but I know that much. Consider the Native American "Two Spirit" people. It's just that in our culture there are too many people who want to wear blinders and pretend that history doesn't exist, because it doesn't fit their own ideals; it's not exactly like them, so they can't be right.

Bigotry.

	Indeed. They squeal about a woman who naturally has higher testosterone than most women participate in women's boxing and demand that she be removed, claim she is really a man in disguise, etc. and it's disgusting... But they don't make a peep when someone is tall in basketball? So some biological advantages are okay but not others? Bleagh. [Read more]

Ooh, I didn't know that A actually once stood for Ally. I've always thought that it just meant Ace. That's good information to know. I learned something today. :)

I wish everyone had that attitude, too. I'm very aware that I've had it very good compared to other people. Hopefully one day everyone will understand that love is always a good thing, no matter who it's between. And that it's also perfectly normal to not be interested in it, too. And that if they can't be supportive, then they can at least mind their own business with something that doesn't affect them.

I wish they taught sexual orientation and genders and such in school... it would be more useful than some of the things that do get taught. (Talking about back when I was in school, of course, it's been quite a while since, lol.)I didn't know about asexuality until I was 25, and because all my classmates as teens were always talking about boyfriend this, girlfriend that, who's dating who, and I had no interest in any of it at the time... eventually, I came to the conclusion that perhaps I was just broken somehow. Tried not to let it bother me. But when I finally came across the term (on Facebook, of all places!) and looked into it, I still felt better knowing that I was actually perfectly normal for an Ace. Brought it up with my mom later, and, well, I already mentioned the result. If only everyone could have it that easy... and preferably a lot earlier than me.

Actually, the A is for Asexual. However, allies are more than welcome here as well. :)

My parents don't really care what my orientation is. My mother said that the only people that my sexual orientation is any business of is myself and whatever partner I choose, if any, and that that stands for anyone and everyone. Straight? Your business. Gay? Your business. Bi? Your business. No one else needs to have anything to say about it, just you and your partner.

I don't understand why others get so upset about something that doesn't affect them in the least, but it's always good to know there is support for allowing people to just be the people they are.

	This would be useful. I don't set up a lot of trades, but being able to set up another right after I do would be very helpful and much less annoying than having to go back through the GTS again if I wanted to set up more than one. [Read more]

Huh, didn't know this was here... though I guess it's not so surprising.

Well, I'm Dragonstars, Dragon, Stars, or DS (I've gotten called them all) and my pronouns are she/her. I'm asexual, but I *think* I'm demiromantic. Not too sure though, I'm not super social and don't connect with a lot of people to find out for sure about the last part. I only think I am because two times a boy I was friends with for a long time I started to really like. Both of these were back in grade school, though, and I left that over a decade and a half ago... and given the age I was at, I really couldn't say if it was an actual crush or not. So that's just my best guess.

If you noted the "not super social" part, I'm trying to work on that; I've been trying to get myself to be at least a little bit more social. I'm not very good at it, hate small talk and things like that, but I'm trying, so I've been trying to check the forum a little more which is why I suddenly noticed this post and learned of this thread's existence but didn't know of it before. Figured it was a good place to at least say hi.

So... to catch up on the conversation, my favourite Pokemon is Latias with Silvally coming a very close second and Eevee not far behind, my favourite real animal is a bunny and if we can include the not- real ones, you can probably guess it but I like dragons. Pineapple on pizza is fine, but it's not my favourite; that would be a good, classic pepperoni and cheese.

I like to write and to knit; my knitting work has been, as of the last couple years, trying to create patterns for plushies of different Pokemon; I've got over 40 patterns worked out so far. My writing has also been a lot of Pokemon fanfiction, but I write about some other things, too. Pokemon is definitely the very top of my hobby list, though. Emerald was my first game and I was hooked from day one.

	There really should be a beach trade update, there are several Pokemon you can fish up with no trade option... some new things that you can get from trading would be exciting, too, but I would be happy with just having some of the existing items swapping the Pokemon they need around so that more of the Pokemon you fish up are useful...

No, there is not. You can check what Pokemon are available as megas by going to your Pokedex under the home tab and selecting the M & G option. Even if you do not have them, the Pokedex numbers will be listed (and will just have ??? next to them) and you can check what numbers correspond to what Pokemon in the national dex. The only part that may give confusion is regarding multiples of the same numbers; generally this is for other formes and event pokemon that are considered the "same" pokemon and they all have megas.

This is a picture using my own pokedex. You can see how the pokedex national numbers are there even when the pokemon aren't, and the screen I showed contains three versions of one mega. that's more or less how it works.

	Whoops, I made a report but didn't see this. Well, I'm also getting that issue. I'm hoping it will be resolved and won't interfere with the "all 24 doors open" thing for those who achieve it. [Read more]

Looks like a lot of people are commenting about this, but I've had a problem with the 5th door on the advent calendar. it told me the task was to get 10 lottery tickets, so I did just that, then went back to the advent. clicking on the 5th door, however, did nothing. No prize... no reaction.

Hoping this will get fixed soon and won't interfere with having all doors opened for those who manage it.

Wow, I'm surprised this resurfaced after 8 years... or, rephrase, I'm surprised it was ignored for 8 years. I highly support it; I did manage to eventually finish all of the rowan quests, but it was a huge pain, took several tries, and I had to resort to purchasing rare candies in the end, which was my last resort but I felt like I had no choice...

now that I've got all of them finished, I wouldn't mind helping other people manage it at all, and it would be a LOT easier if there was a clicklist for it.

A lot of those suggestions would be tricky, for all the reasons Finhawk pointed out, but one thing I do agree with would be Leah being able to trade for some. I think that in particular would be a great idea. If we incorporate her into events that are like this (Halloween sweets and Valentines Sweet Hearts both come to mind) then it would also potentially be a way to use some of those fish that never come up in Leah's trades, as well...

Having a few be able to be in the bar so that no click goes to waste is a good idea. I would still put a limit on it, to make sure it encourages people to claim them when they see them (and/or as soon as they can, if their party is already full), but being able to have a few would let people keep clicking and not be wasting their time or missing a chance if they don't know they've got it yet, or if they need to hatch some eggs or whatever to empty their party first.

	I'm surprised no one has suggested chocolate moomoo milk. XD joking aside, it would make sense for a shiny Miltank to give something special even if just on occasion, the same way a shiny Combee occasionally gives super honey. [Read more]

Took some searching to find a thread that had something like this suggested...

But I think that something needs to be done for the fish exchange at the beach. I don't fish nearly as much as I used to, but I still have a bunch of fish in my apparently bottomless fishbox that just sit there. Now, whether it's selling them to Leah, or if some new items for exchange are added that use them up, or even if existing items just get their requirements rotated so that one day, the item needs this and the next time the item comes up, it needs another Pokemon, if we could just implement something that would allow people to use the fish in their fishbox instead of having to just throw them out if they want to empty it, I think that would be better.

a couple suggestions might be:
tasty and delicious bait currently only take Magikarp and Gyarados... maybe they could rotate and the next day you use Tentacool and tentacruel.
For the shiny bait, which takes Squirtle, totodile, and mudkip, perhaps the starters could be rotated? but one day it could be squirtle, totodile, mudkip, then the next day you need Piplup, Oshawott, Froakie. it would use them up, and I'm sure other combinations to swap in for other items would work better.

that's for switching around combinations, that is. if new items are added, they could use Pokemon in the box that don't get used for anything else, and if the feature comes to just selling them to Leah, that's fine too. I just really don't like throwing them away just to get rid of them. seems wasteful.

Just to add my 2 cents to this old suggestion that looks like it was forgotten about.
