>>38087338Pokemon. She's having her first legit Pokemon exposure right now with a Brilliant Diamond playthrough. She is hooked now.
- she'd never played the games before outside of a friend handing her a GBA game mid-game once
- she wasn't allowed to watch the show
- she thought Brock was the main character
- she thought her fainted Pokemon were dying when she saw her first evolution screen
- at the start she thought there were only three types because the NPC only gave the grass/water/fire example
- she barely knows any Pokemon before she actually meets them in the game, outside of Pikachu and Jigglypuff's name. She was constantly mixing up Jigglypuff and Clefairy until she caught a Cleffa of her own.
- still doesn't understand that Pokemon can only have a max of three stages
- slowing learning the type matchups but still making mistakes
- is only keeping cute Pokemon on her team. Still gets surprised when one of her baby Pokemon is terrible in battle.
- leveling up and getting money is activating her monkey brain reward centers like crazy
