andrasteAs you are probably already aware if you care about video games and don't live in a cave on Mars, there is a new generation of Pokemon games coming out in October. As you are probably not aware unless you regularly hang out at my house, I keep an old tea tin full of spare change by my bed that I take to the bank every few months. On Friday, I was pleasantly startled to find that I had somehow accumulated $298. That's more than twice as much as usual.
The relationship between these two things is that the second has allowed me to buy a Nintendo 3DS XL so I can experience the first when it arrives! The battery on my DS Lite has been getting very unreliable lately, which isn't that surprising since I've had it since 2009 and have used it heavily. My new toy is blue. I was also able to buy Red Dwarf X on DVD, and I still have $20 left over that I think I'm going to spend on a Bilbo Baggins action figure.
I am ridiculously excited about Gen VI, even by my standards of getting ridiculously excited about Pokemon. I have already chosen Fennekin in my heart. (As as the rest of the internet, apparently. Less than twenty-four hours after the reveal, he had more than two hundred works on DeviantArt. Now it's almost three thousand.) I also really like Xerneas, so I guess I'm getting Pokemon X instead of Y.
This also means that I have two consoles that can take Gen V games, so I can transfer all of my Pokemon over to White 2 without botheringlokisrose.

Everyone loves Fennekin, I'm almost thinking about getting one of the other starters just to be a little different. ^^o
After picking Water twice and Fire twice, before the trailer I was thinking 'hey, guess I should go with Grass this time!' And then I saw Fennekin. (Not that Chespin isn't cute in its way.) Of course, we still don't know what any of them turn into. If Fennekin is another Fire/Fighting type starter, I think there may be rioting.

My default plan is 'vids and cake', as you know. I am also seven episodes away from the end of Tiger & Bunny and have SO MANY FEELINGS.
