how to know if tumblr has been eating your asks: send yourself anywhere between 5-10 asks, ( anon or not ) but have each ask be nothing but an order in which you sent them.
i.e: the first ask says ‘1′, the second says ‘2′, etc etc.
i sent myself ten of these, both on anon and not. This was all i received back:
Tumblr is now eating asks along with notifications. We must be more interactive than ever if we want keep this form of entertainment we call the rpc. Go ahead and warn your friends or test this for yourselves.. This post is reblogable.
I just sent myself five of these. none of them came through.
I just did this myself last night and out of the ten ask I sent myself only one came through.
Please know if I’m not responding to you, your ask, or your messages, I am notwillingly ignoring you. I am however doing my best to try and stay in contact with everyone.
sorry to everyone who tagged me or sent me an ask. If I didn’t react to it, tumblr didn’t show me.
Before everyone panics! Yes, Tumblr’s notification system barely functions, but the situation with asks isn’t as dire as it seems! There’s a flaw with the method the OP suggested to test your inbox: Tumblr filters out one-character asks. In other words, if you send yourself individual messages with only the numbers 1 through 10 in them, you’ll only receive the last message! I did this to myself to confirm, and lo and behold, only received number ten. But when I sent myself the first line of All-Star?
Everything is there!!!
So, the TLDR:If you want to test your inbox, send yourself an ask with at least two characters!

{As a PSA, the mun recently tried this and only got one back, and she’s known some people were having trouble getting their asks through. If you’re worried about whether or not we’ve received your ask, send a message with something like, “Hey, can you see if this got through: [your ask here],” and we’ll gladly check. 🙂 Those who wish to remain anonymous and those with no Tumblr accounts, apologies in advance if any of your asks went missing!}
I would say that Bill is being facetious here, but seeing as he’s raised every single eeveelution we know about at one point or another, I don’t think he is… —LH
This is actually more of a coincidence. After all, if it was an evolutionary trait that benefited mareanie, you’d see far more pink ones. You see, mareanie actually try to blend in with stones in the shallower depths of the ocean floor (or the surrounding water) more than corsola colonies, while corsola colonies are brightly colored, partly due to their diets and partly to make it easier to find one another. A blue corsola is difficult for other corsola to see, and a pink mareanie is easier for predators to spot (or they’re simply mistaken for corsola by other mareanie).
Of course, both colors have their advantages: blue corsola are more difficult for mareanie to see (because they blend in with the water and sand), while it’s true pink mareanie find it easier to sneak up on corsola. It’s just that the colors don’t really provide that much of an advantage for either species, and the reasoning behind those colors has more to do with pure accident than adaptation.
You haven’t really offended him. You see, rockruff, as are most dog-like pokémon, are extremely empathetic and loyal. So if you tell your rockruff he’s hurt you, even if he’s young and even if you said it nicely, he’ll immediately assume he did something terrible. In other words, he feels guilty, and he’s likely afraid of hurting you again.
Therefore, what you need to do is simple: teach him how to touch. As gently as you can, reach out for him when you see him and get him to come to you. Pet him gently, then teach him how to avoid rubbing his collar on you. For example, kneel down and have him come at you from the front, using your legs as leverage to reach your face. This may sound complicated, but it’s pretty easy to do if you employ a bit of positive reinforcement. That is, when he comes close and lets you pet him, give him a treat. When he reaches up and places his paws on you in a way you think is fine, give him another treat. Then herd him gently from there and give him treats whenever he successfully shows you affection in ways that don’t hurt you.
But above all else, be patient, as it might be a slow process to teach him. Having a first aid kit nearby may help too.
(No, really, where can I read about this? This sounds like distracting furry drama!)
{If this is an OOC question—and, eff, even if it wasn’t, because all of you need to be blessed with joy on this delightful evening—a friend of the mun’s has given her the context.
To put it in short, for the same reason Twineedle is a bug-type move, despite the fact that it’s just the act of stabbing something with a stinger: it’s not just about how basic a move is but also with which element is incorporated into its use. Bite may look like an ordinary bite, but it’s only truly the Bite technique if it also involves imbuing the user’s teeth with dark-type energy. Crunch is the same way but in larger, easier to see doses. (This, plus the fact that the dark type was discovered after Bite’s registration as an officially recognized technique, is why it was originally classified as a normal-type move, by the way.)
Choose to stay as one? Yes, absolutely. Some shapeshifters have preferred forms, and they’ll attempt to assume these forms whenever possible.
Get permanently stuck as one, however, is a different story, and the answer there is “no.” Such transformations are always conscious for the most part. There’s always something that will trigger a de-transformation, no matter how careful a ditto or zorua/zoroark is.
If you mean that the gardevoir and gallade have each taken a lucario each and if this ask is in response to my earlier one today, allow me to clarify.
By “risks,” I don’t mean that an egg will be produced. I actually mean “mating styles and mechanics between egg groups differs so drastically that not only is a fertilized egg out of such a union thoroughly impossible but also it’s likely that someone is going to get injured for even trying.”
Or to put it a little more colorfully, do you know of those stories of humans or pokémon dying because a human got a bit too close to their favorite team members? In certain circumstances, that will happen if incompatible pokémon attempt to mate. Because lucario, gardevoir, and gallade are roughly the same height and mass, you probably won’t have to worry, although lucario are supposedly … energetic when they mate. (So, well. You may need to worry about your gardevoir. Your gallade should be fine.)
If you mean that the twins are attempting to mate within twin pairings, in an incestuous relationship, then my advice would be to introduce more, unrelated pokémon to those pairs. Happy or not, that’s … about as much of a good thing as human twins pairing off.
