Is there any Sunkern & Sunflora lovers out there??
Yeah theyre both pretty cool. Then again I love all pokemon.
and the sleeve (that forced me to start to collect sleeves (there’s also a postcard) …i mean how could you not collect such awesome art) :
It’s not my favourite Pokémon of all time but I really like both of them. Gen 2 Pokémon are all pretty cool!
Yes! I think they are cute. My partner isn’t interested in Pokemon but she loves Sunflowers. So I bought her a Sunflora card and she keeps it in her phone case.
I will be honest. No.
I’m not a fan but these are cool
That’s why they call her Morii Magnum
She brings the heat
Yes I’m learning japanese, and Sunflora’s name in japanese is Kimawari (キマワリ) which is most likely a word play on Himawari (ひまわり) - sunflower. I have no idea if there is any deeper meaning behind it though
I know that ひ means sun, まわる is “to turn”, but I don’t know what is the キ supposed to mean.
Sunkern and I go way back!
I remember playing Pokemon Silver and was trying to catch a Sunkern in the national park. The bit where they host the bug catching contest. I must’ve been trying to find one for hours! Certainly long enough to embed this memory forever! I found out you could only find it at a certain time of day. Not morning and not at night but during the day cycle. Wild news. So I waited and went back and boom, there it was.
It’s peculiar, I always have fond memories of new Pokemon because I play the games. I genuinely believe it helps so much in building attachments to them. Even if I do just leave them in a box straight after catching them.
I don’t collect them, but I do love the design of these mon. I remember I loved their whimsy and theme when I first saw them in G/S!
