PokéBase - Pokémon Q&A

Wall for SiIver (page 1)

Nvm just because I said that two more of my decent answers got votes, because it’s a universal rule that something I say can’t be right for more than a day.

I find it kind of annoying that the three answers that I've written that have 2 votes are completely crappy and I didn't put any effort into:
https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/14166/which-is-better-stab-or-super-effective-not-4x
https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/432649/are-alpha-pokemon-shiny-locked-in-pokemon-legends-arceushttps://pokemondb.net/pokebase/431015/are-dittos-found-in-buried-relic-always-shiny

But the ones that I thought were pretty decent, have linked sources, and  I spent actual time on, have one or zero votes, and every time they're edited, they aren't even commented on and just fall back off the recent activity page:
https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/325372/has-there-ever-been-a-pokemon-game-with-dlcs
https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/432284/what-flying-types-platinum-aside-togetic-staraptor-drifblim
https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/413220/how-does-terastallizing-interact-with-type-changes
https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/418148/what-status-moves-dont-work-in-tera-raids

It makes me feel like I wasted my time and didn't help anybody, and all my answers should be targeted at eight year olds with ten second attention spans. You know what I mean?

If one of you mods ever becomes admin you need to change my official type to “fraug”.

It's just a rough guess

Thanks! I don't think I can test for every game atm, but I'll test it out for most of them.

New grav! I saw on discord and instantly went to the DB. I took me a second to find you on the users page because I didn't actually expect that you would do it on the here to.

I've always tried to post quality answers and I aim for the harder ones because they're more satisfying. I love Pokémon, I enjoy writing, and I enjoy helping people. So it's a very rewarding loop for me.

I could be wrong about this but I'm going to call out what I believe is the subtext of your question:
"You consistently come back to this site on a certain date, it's nice that you're contributing but it's a suspicious coincidence."

If you're suspicious of my activity over the last few years I can give you a timeline, as I've just looked and realized my activity on this site directly correlates to IRL events.

I stopped using the site regularly around 2017. Fell out of Pokémon for a couple years, became relatively inactive.

First, I came back June/July 2020 and remained active until May 2021. In May 2021, I got my first job. Yes, I came back primarily because I was writing the "psa" but I also was getting into Generation 8 competitive battles and I really liked talking to the new batch of users (SYL, Y, Glazio) who popped up so I stuck around.

I guess I didn't really come on much between 2022 and 2023. I definitely check in and see what's happening but I don't think I posted for two or three years.
Even though I played PLA and S/V, I had gotten into a romantic relationship, had a job, and was working on personal/artistic projects. This site wasn't exactly at the forefront of my mind, y'know?

Then in 2024 I lost my job and had to deal with a BS court case. That case ended in June! Then I had nothing to do so I came back here and answered a few questions. Actually, I have a year-old unfinished draft from a question I'm still trying to answer.
I put it on hold and stopped posting to focus on my game project. But my momentum waned when more of life's woes hit me and for the last eight months I have been painfully stuck.

Then they announced the Pokémon Presents a week or two ago and it reminded me that this site exists.

Yes I'm aware that I always come back around the anniversary of when I posted the "psa". I have an obsession with dates and rarely forget a birthday (look at my oldest wall posts). So naturally I remember this website when I see the calendar but this time it genuinely coincided with the Presents & Amethyst passing Mew. Pretty decent time to come back and answer a few questions.

Not sure how to respond to being called a bully :/
