*when there's 20 laps to go* takes a nap, thinking Whincup and Craig Lowndes has won the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000, tries to forget about the race

*wakes up an hour and a half later* Okay, let's see... *takes a look at the Shell V Power Racing Facebook Page* wait...WHAT!?
MAH BOI JUST WON THE SUPERCHEAP AUTO BATHURST 1000!?
wait...HOW!?
I WANNA KNOW WHAT HAPPENED!!!
Yeah, I had taken a nap 'cuz I thought it was game over for Shell-V-power racing and my eyes were blood-shot X_X (that's what happens when you dont get enough sleep)
Usually, when Whincup is in the lead, that's it. There's NO WAY you can beat him, that's GG. Thankfully, I've recorded the race. I'm gonna cycle through it to the point of where I went to bed and I'm gonna observe what the hell happened
I'm REALLY curious to see what the hell happened to Whincup / how mah boi won. Oh, this is gonna be fun to watch, knowing Scotty won the biggest race in Australian Motorsport 

-
Okay guys, I'll be watching the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000. ^^ I'll be cheering for mah bois.
I'll see you guys in a bit

-
Okay, the grid has been set for the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 ^^

WOW!!! O_O I just finished watching the top 10 shootout for the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 and 'Scotty' McLaughlin has just set THE fastest lap EVER at Mount Panorama.
Link: https://www.supercars.com/videos/championship/mclaughlins-stunning-bathurst-1000-pole-lap/
The Mustangs have completely locked out the front row of the grid and they STOPPED Red Bull from getting Pole Position. They were INCREDIBLY strong in this top 10 shootout.
I'm EXTREMELY happy about that!!!

Who has the cutest blush?

I just finished watching qualifying for the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 and 4 of the 6 Mustangs are in the top 10. So yeah, I'm really happy about that.
I am a little surprised the Bottle O car and the number 12 are not in the top 10.
I can't wait to see what happens in the top 10 shootout. I hope one of the Fords gets pole
I'm gonna be honest, I am a little disappointed BOTH red bull cars are in the top ten
For a while there, it looked as if 888 WASN'T gonna make it into the top ten. Hopefully, the Fords can stop them from getting pole position for the Great Race.
(...and yes, it DID rain at Mount Panorama. Well, to be fair, we had some rain here at around 11AM in the morning and Bathurst is about 3 hours away from where I live, so whatever happens here, the weather will come over there and the weather bureau says rain is coming. So it looks like we'll be in for some wet weather tomorrow)

@Blivy That's the one I'm going for!!!

Ohh man, I cant wait to watch the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 with my dad this weekend ^^
Scott McLaughin has just set a new lap record at Mount Panorama, setting a time of 2.03.7, 0.1 of a second faster than the old lap record that he set back in 2017. He currently leads the championship by 598 points over Shane Van Gisbergen.
Before:
After:
The Mustangs have been INCREDBILY strong in practice.
They filled the top 7 spots in the last practice session and it was a mustang 1 - 2 - 3 in the co-driver session.
The forecast doesnt look good.
There's a 90% chance of rain today and a 90% chance of rain at 4PM.
That's when they go for qualifying. That's gonna REALLY shake up the grid if it DOES rain.
Oh, and there's a 90% chance of rain on the Saturday. The last time we had a WET Top 10 Shootout was in 2015. Luckily, the forecast says it WON’T be raining on the Sunday. 
Here are some interesting facts about the Great Race:
- the last car to win the Bathurst 1000 from Pole position was in 2009.
- the last time Ford won at Mount Panorama was in 2014
- In the recent past, Jamie Whincup has had A LOT of bad luck at this place:
In 2013 - he tried to go around the outside of Frosty on the final lap (which was NEVER going to work) and made a fool of himself. If I was him, I'd either would've put him into the fence so my team-mate could win the race or try to overtake him at Forrest's Elbow / Conrod Straight
In 2014 - He ran out of fuel on the last lap. Completely dis-obeyed team orders to conserve
In 2015 - He passed the safety car. Got a drive-through penalty.
In 2016 - He caused a HUGE accident. He bumped Scott McLaughlin off the race-track, tried to re-dress, held up Tander and caused a MASSIVE accident. Got a 15-second penalty. Serves him right.
In 2017 - he had a mechanical problem. His car lost a cylinder and that put him out of contention
…and in 2018 - His co-driver lost a wheel when he was going up the main straight
...and DON'T expect him to win this year. Something's gonna happen to him and you know it.

@SolarFlare13 I feel like I was destined to be here on this exact moment!

My beautiful princess is truly magnificent!

Very adorable indeed!

@Splashee Against socks on ponies?
To be honest, I wasn't the biggest fan at first either... but Coco in socks pretty much converted me!

Wait...
Galarian Ponyta is a SHIELD EXCLUSIVE!?
HAHA!!!
YES!!!
I pre-ordered the RIGHT version!!!
^^ Oh, that thing is SO going on my team!!! 
So tell me, Pokemon fans: which version are YOU picking?

@Widdershins, @ShadOBabe, @Dynamo Pad, @DivineFear1000, @Odyssey, @Photon Jet and any-pony else who is a pokemon fan

As for me, I already pre-ordered MY copy of Pokemon Shield

@Cash In I've been looking at some cartoons from my childhood

@Tacodidra yeah, you're probably right

-

@Cash In Umm...just been watching the Pokemon anime from the 90's /early 2000's, some Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Powerpuff Girls, Transformers and some Yu-Gi-Oh from the 2000's.

-
Well, that didn’t take long XD The Brony community has already made fan art of Galarian Ponyta

@Widdershins, @Dynamo Pad, @ShadOBabe, @Photon Jet, @Odyssey, @DivineFear1000 and any-pony else who is a Pokemon fan, this one is for you

@DivineFear1000 Yes, she is

Well, it's time for me to go to sleep
^^ Goodnight every-pony

Well, that was an interesting live-stream.
^^ We got to see Ponyta's mane glow like the rainbow and we got to hear Rapidash's cry RIGHT at the end of the 24 hour live-stream. 
As a person who's into My Little Pony and Pokemon, I'm satisfied ^^
BEST. GALARIAN. FORM. EVER!!!!!! <3 I cant WAIT to put one on my team and call it Princess Celestia. 
What did you guys think of the 24 hour live-stream?

@Widdershins, @ShadOBabe, @Dynamo Pad, @Odyssey, @Cash In, @Photon Jet and any-pony else who is a Pokemon fan

Personally, I thought it was a bit of a snore-fest, but I stuck around and I watched the majority of it...and my patience was rewarded :3
It's pretty funny how I posted this video early in the 24 hour live-stream and we got a Pokemon that closely resembles something from My Little Pony XD

@SolarFlare13 It's a shame we didn't get anything from the starters, but it was cool seeing a new Galarian form. I hope we still get a lot more Galarian forms before the game is released.
-
Yeah, that was disappointing
...but I'm SO glad Ponyta got a galarian form.
This one's for the Bronies!!!
Hopefully, when they DO talk about the galarian forms of Ponyta and Rapidash, they also talk about the evolutions of the starters. We're VERY close to the games release and they still havent revealed the 2ND evolutions of the starters
My guess is we'll be getting some information about Pokemon Sword and Shield in the next couple of days... 
-
Sooo… twenty four hour "livestream"... goading your fans into watching hours at a time of empty nothingness all to only get one new bit of information released about one new species... while still denying the name of another new species that has already been willingly allowed to be played by players. Seems like a waste of time & energy.
I loved it!
Really wish we could have something like this for pretty much anywhere's else in the Pokémon world! (Preferably someplace icy, heh!) Nice, ambient music to meditate to and have cute pokemon wander in on rare occasion! It's like a pokemon fish tank! Loved it!
New Ponyta seems a bit oddly overdesigned to me... flashing colors, horn that doesn't seem to match the body, a bit too flashy... seems more like a Yugioh card monster than a pokemon to me. But all the same, I won't deny its cuteness! I'm totally banking on it being a Ghost type! Ghost Horse!!
-
Well, that's strange.
A shadow of a wolf appeared in the Pokemon Sword and Shield live-stream. Made a paticularily STRANGE sound / cry. One I've never heard of and it emitted light
could this be the evolution of Yamper!?
Or could this just be one of the legendary wolves? 

Hey @Widdershins, @ShadOBabe, @Cash In, @Dynamo Pad and any-pony else who is a Pokemon fan, ya might wanna take a look at this

-
I just saw a GALARIAN PONYTA in the Pokemon Sword and Shield live-stream!!!
O_O
(I heard it 'galloping' after Impidimp popped up on the screen)

@Widdershins, @Dynamo Pad, @ShadOBabe, @Photon Jet, @Odyssey, @Cash In and any-pony else who is a pokemon fan, you might wanna take a look at this

@Dynamo Pad and @ShadOBabe This was the leak I was talking about

-

@SolarFlare13 Okay now, uh...
1. I can see no logical reasoning that a bird would "evolve" to become a Ghost. Something more land-based by dint of being stealthy like Decidueye, I get but.... Chatot is all about making noise and being your typical parrot. There's not room there to further design it.
2. Luxray, while it does need an update, is all about X-ray vision... there's no other way to classify that as anything but Electric type. How would you make a quadruped lion as ground based? It just digs really good now? That makes for a pretty lame retyping...
3. Alicorn is a fabricated term that only means something in MLP. In fact, I do believe in greek mythology pegusai and pretty much every magical horse had both wings AND horn so it was more base description than anything. Using the word Alicorn strikes me as playing into expectations to get people to believe your fabrication.
4.... the...thing made from an entire body of blades... loses both Steel & Dark? It's dark because it likes stabbing everything it comes across! That typing is sheer nonsense! If you remove the blades from Bisharp, you remove the pokemon!!
5. Ugh. No. Giarafarig's typing is not only its genesis but pretty much the only thing holding it together. It's literally a living pun. It's everyday telekinetics. It has to stay normal because its psychic only by dint of its genetic makeup. Like a shaved cat.
You know, its entirely possible some might make a list of half already confirmed things... just to grab attention.

o3o Can I get some Maud emotes please?

-
Hey guys ^^ the Pokemon Sword and Shield live-stream will be starting in 30 minutes.

@Widdershins Yes, that was an Impidimpidimpidimp

People have been saying they've seen the fluffy white tail and top half of a colorless head that resembles a Galarian Ponyta. I dunno about this, but I have been saying that we need a Fairy unicorn since we DO now have the Fairy type and we're going back to a british region that was originally the start of where classic fairies come from.
But really, if you take the fire hair off of Ponyta, where does that leave you? The fire gland is kind of an integral part of its biology and taking that out is doing far more than just regional evolution.
Regional variants kind of bother me. Cus I feel like its basically saying the original design was worthless until they redid it to make it all new n' shiny to catch eyes for this current gen.

@SolarFlare13 Pika!
-
Nah, I always heard that it was based off the name. That "Pika" was both the name for the sound a mouse makes in Japan and the sound of electric sparking and "chu" the sound of a kiss or mouse squeak. That, like, it's an American sounding out of the Japanese name.
Think they say that on Bulbapedia?
-
-
-
Okay, so that's all done!!!
^^ 
- Bought a Nintendo Switch Lite: Check
- Bought a case that has elastic straps in it: Check
- Bought a tempered Glass Screen Protector (...and had it properly fitted): Check
- Pre-Ordered my copy of Pokemon Shield: Check



Now, I just gotta place my pre-order for my Sobble Plushie and I'm all set

@SolarFlare13 That would make sense for Banjo to be placed in 64, but Guess the creators of the game might not know how to use Kazooie alongside Banjo. Considering how they made Ice Climbers for Melee.
Also, I'm really hoping this isn't the final evolutions for the starters. I mean, Scorbunny's evolution looks okay. Grookey's and Sobbles evolutions? Uh...I might have to pass on that. I know that Grookey is meant to be a sort of drummer based on the stick it's carrying. I also know that Sobble is meant to be a sort of spy theme, but I don't know how the evolution in the picture represents a spy.
I just hope we get some evolutions for the starters that we can love and appreciate.
-
@Dynamo Pad I think it was partly because Banjo Kazooie wasn't AS popular as they were back at the time, so that's why they weren't in the game, which is a bit of shame

Scorbunny's evolution looks really good in that picture.
the other two...not so much 
Sobble's one is ok. A bit underwhelming if you ask me
Grookey's one...looks horrible. Personally, I want it to evolve into a green silver-back gorilla...or a green-baboon with HUGE canines
I just hope that image is fake and game-freak can give us a REAL surprise *fingers crossed*

-
Been meaning to say:
1. It doesn't haven't the "flare" accoutrements the final evolutions usually have. I point out Blaziken as compared to Torchic. I know Game Freak, and they refuse to do the predictable! That final lizard form is just so bland and says nothing of the theme of "really good at using water." The rabbit version is a lot more expected.
2. Such weird, unusable details though. Why does the rabbit have its own egg coloration/design? That ain't even a thing that happens in the game world! Why would there be a sketch of the ape with its hair down? That stick in its hair would be part of the model & unmoveable. So many details smack of just random, unrelated doodlings.
That lizard seriously just looks like a bigger, bluer Keckleon. The lizard nobody remembers! That's aint what they'd do! It wouldn't just be a "Bigger Monkey" it'd be "Big Monkey with chest designs like a football field and these huge, ornate gold letterings and..."
First n' foremost, its outlandish and fantastical. An ape that has bushes is tame by this franchise's design patterns, heh!
