    As an aside, are those the only pieces with that style? I mean, Red is self explanatory and Giovanni... but random ass Jasmine.

    Especially since she just has Steelix and... two others? Magnemites? I'm not entirely sure.

    Also, that awful feeling from the trainers in the picture when Mewtwo strikes them all from existence in 2 seconds.

    Fuckin Mewtwo.

    I feel like that Snorlax was ripped from something Junji Ito did, am I crazy?

    Seriously, I have no idea what Jasmine has besides that Steelix. In that picture universe she dies in 2 seconds.

    I mean, it's kind of lazy. Using this style, you could have a pants shittingly terrifying version of Skarmory, Aggron, Aegislash, etc.

    I'm pretty sure this image is older thaN Aegislash, but Skarmory and Aggron could have definite been in there. Maybe's it a throwback to Gen2, where Magnemite was reintroduced as being a Steel type, and she only had her Steelix.

    It's a throwback to teams from Gen I+remakes (Giovanni, adding in Mewtwo because Mewtwo), Gen II (Jasmine) and its remakes (Red). Jasmine seems random, though, considering you have Claire (Gyarados, Dragonair, Kingdra) or even Whitney.

    Uh, sorry? Seems like a subjective thing to me, but okay. Note that I also said "tint" to imply that it's not that eldritch . . .

    It's not really subjective at all. It's like saying Impression, soleil levant has a tint of cubism... I mean, obviously not on the same scale but the principal stands \o,o/

    eldritch:

    adjective
    1.
    eerie; weird; spooky.
    Expand
    Also, eldrich, elritch.
    Origin of eldritch
    1500-15101500-10; earlier elrich, equivalent to Old English el- foreign, strange, uncanny (see else ) + rīce kingdom (see rich ); hence “of a strange country, pertaining to the Otherworld”; compare Old English ellende in a foreign land, exiled (cognate with German Elend penury, distress), Runic Norse alja-marki r foreigner

    Is everyone seriously coming in here to shit on me for using a word that doesn't seem to be wrong here? I mean, what exactly is so wrong, then, with my use of the word?

    And how is "eerie; weird; spookie"-ness not a subjective matter?

    Edit: Is it because of the term "Eldritch Abomination?" Does that mean nobody can simply use the original adjective anymore?

    And one from back in 2010, when I worked closing shift at Borders and so had to keep myself occupied for hours at a time with nary another soul on the store floor.
