Just imagine naming a Pachikuru "Kurupachi", making it turn upside-down. Or a move that switches the two ends around, giving a second chance at a success using Wager.
2nd ability could be an altered Moody that either buffs or nerfs your stats equally. Example: 1st turn you get extra attack, 2nd turn you get extra sp.def, 3rd turn you get less speed. All the same amount, so you can't just stall to become an unstoppable force. . Also, imo, it's stats should have a lot of variety, to fit the theme of randomness. You could get one tanky speedy boy with not a lot of attack or a slow special sweeper.
Honestly, the entire Pachikuru portion, I was thinking about how casinos never have flat odds; there's a reason "the House always wins." Giving Pachikuru some kind of mechanic where if it harms itself using Wager, it guarantees a 'big payout' the next turn, a little like using Stone Edge and Stomping Tantrum on the same moveset. If you land Stone Edge, brilliant, you've dished out one of the best Rock moves in the game. If you missed, well... Stomping Tantrum's souped up now. House wins.
Perhaps Pachikuru could have another signature move called "Double Down" that only works after using Wager, undoing the previous move (Healing the affected Pokemon of status and health, as well as reverting previous stat changes) and using it again, but has a slightly higher chance to hit the opponent, all the while doubling damage done (after damage calculations from Randomize), doubling stat changes, and inflicting another Pokemon on the field with a status effect. Of course, it will only work if Pachikuru or the opponent it attacked still haven't been KO'd yet, as you can't use Double Down with your own Pachikuru if it faints, nor would you likely want to revive your opponent's Pokemon.
I noticed there was a common theme shared with some of the Lockemon in this video, which the theme is the 7 deadly sins. With Xxubis being Lust, Bombfullo being wrath, and Pachikuru being greed. Perhaps in a future video we will get more Lockemon with a connection to the 4 other sins.
This is promising! Giovanni with Zygarde? A Ground Legendary? Reminds me how in the anime he tamed Landorus in Best Wishes! And a bipedal psychic cat? Yeah, definitely a Mewtwo reference.
fun fact: the name Succubus means "the one who is below" and Incubus means "the one who is above" so they aren't just not different demons, they aren't even split by gender, just if they are a bottom or top. so i guess that would make Xxubis a switch
I like how some of the Fakemon tell a story with their reasons they were made and their evolutions, like Purreshiss being a Pokemon for the different Giovanni, and Calfoom’s split evolution into Bovoid being because of the story behind it
That's the thing that makes me love his fakemons, he always makes them with a ton of inspiration, there's literally none that's just an animal or something, or only referenciates one thing
Pike is a great name. It's a type of Polearm like Lance. Also, I immediately fell in love with Rubi. Great design that makes me think of both Arianna as well as Silver (my favorite rival). Also, adore the way she says Rubi Rocket.
I’m so invested in this story, I can’t wait till we see more of the characters in this new world, Giovanni and Silver are still around and working together no less, we see Rubi who’s their descendant and Pike who’s Lance’s descendant. I actually thought he was Lance when I 1st saw him, now an old drunkard due to failing to cause the cataclysm, but still, it makes you wonder if there’s any other characters who are still around in this era and what they’re up to. We also got our 1st look outside of Neo-Kanto City with the now dried-up Lake of Rage, maybe we’ll see other familiar locations now destroyed or abandoned.
I’d love to see a regional variant or evolution of Noctowl as like this crazy cyborg evil owl based on the amount of evil organizations, especially in the cyberpunk genre, that use an owl as their symbol, and also having a cyber bird is a huge staple in cyberpunk.
Imagine if it's head functioned as a camera or radar dish! Since there are owls which have heads that function similarly to those dishes to allow them to hear better.
You say cyborg owl and my brain immediately goes to Clockwork from the Sly Cooper series. Maybe have it be Flying/Dark with the Steelworker ability. Perhaps a signature move, Burglarize, which is a stronger version of Thief.
I can't help but wonder if Razpurt's type combination could possibly also be an allusion to asbestos. At one point it was widely used as a building material because it's highly resistant to fire, but the downside was that it caused a lot of health issues to those who were exposed to it due to the fact it's also a carcinogen. Also, another fitting design detail about Pachikuru that wasn't mentioned is that the decorative discs it carries around are not only just a reference to slot machines, but they also resemble a stack of poker chips.
7:49 as soon as I heard the falling from heigh sound effect, I assumed it was Razpurt coming back down-yet I instinctively yelled out “DISSSMAAAN!!!” I loved to see my comedic instinct was correct instead of my assumption. Love the ongoing Dismandurr joke.
i'd love it if there was an item like loaded dice that increases the chances of giveing the users bad status effects so you have to almost sneak it onto one to make it easier to fight.
Idea: this, but due to the nature of the item, trainers have a 33% chance to give no money when defeated(if they know to give double money when you have amulet coin/luck incense, they can know if you have loaded dice)
Those succubus designs are my favorite ones you've put out and not for horny reasons, but because they fit their theme perfectly and I love both versions of it. Great work man
I imagine the form xxubis takes is based on one of many factors. But if I had to guess... 1. The physical attack and physical defense being higher then the special attack and defense. 2. It's based on the gender of the first member of your party that isn't genderless, made to attract them (masculine for female, feminine for male). 3. Based on the gender of the player character, depending on if the story will allow that. 4. Based on the nature of the pokemon
Another thing I like about Xxubus and how it's technically classified as Genderless, X is sometimes used as the letter for third gender options, be it specifically Genderless or not!
This series being monthly pains me in the best way possible. On one hand it’s so high quality that it obviously takes time, but I also desperately want to see where the story goes. Take your time though, I can’t wait to see how this escalates.
After a while I realised that this mad motherfucker went with the more literal name origin of succubus and incubus: they were originally describing whether the demon was a top or bottom, rather than their sex. And I’m all here for it.
It has apparently been longer than I thought since I last actively watched Lockstin (my god this year has gone by fast). So coming into this series randomly, I can honestly say, I'd gladly catch both versions of Xxubis, and this series is very high quality.
The fact that lockstin has made geovonni regret something and is trying to fix the world as some odd atomemt for his sins is really interesting I wonder if this has to do with Team Flare or someone else.
I would ABSOLUTELY use the buff Xxubis on my team, I get it's supposed to be a sexual pokémon and I actually do appreciate the amount of thought put into it, because ngl incubi and succubi are very interesting to me from a mythos perspective, but also it's just a VERY cool design in terms of pokémon
At first I thought Xxubis would be my favorite coming out of this, but the creativity behind Pachikuru is just amazing! Def one of my top 10 fan Pokémon. Keep up the great work
First: THIS SERIES IS AWSOME, I LOVE IT!!!! Second: When I heard "Cells" I thought: What is this man going to do with Zygarde, the Legendary Pokémon that mantains the balance of Death and Life?
Purreshiss is really cool! I have had some thoughts of my own around a normal/psychic meow that line but it kinda went the casino route since the meow thing variant was tuxedo cat colored (and with the evolution being named purrdicsian dumb i know). But basing it off of actual mythology along with vibes is awesome! You never cease to impress
So, what would determine which form of Xxubis it is that a given Zzimp would evolve into? Is it stat based, like with Tyrouge? Is it completely random, like with Wurmple? Is it based on holding a certain item?
I think it could work in a quite unique way. Zzimp would evovle into a more feminine looking Xxubis if there are more Male Pokemon on the team, while it will try to evovle into the more masculine looking evo if there are more Female Pokemon. If there aren't any other pokémon or that the number of male and female pokemon on the party are the same, it will just not evolve. Also, I would like for them to be like Meowstic, in the way that they have the same stats, same Dex number but have unique Entry and share 2 Abillities but have a different hidden abillity
Pachikuru with loaded dice from scarlet and violet will be devastating! Maybe they can have some moves like double slap that are already luck based and are not affected by randomize. I also imagine them having super powerful moves like psychic and zen headbutt earlier since it will only be half effective half of the time.
This is really well done and interesting, can't wait to see what shall unfold, especially with Giovanni, he's always up to something, even if he's playing good guy now there must be some ulterior motive. Also jeez where did Lance go wrong, Pike looks like him, similar names, they must be related, but... I don't know, guessing being in a former champions shadow all his life did this? Poor guy. Also strange... is that not Giovanni? Why would Silver 1 be working for him, and 2 to call him boss, his father, not saying he'd call him father, but to address the one that abandoned him and he refused to be like, to just following him... what's up, something fishy is going on here.
@Surge Co. Channel I agree! It'd be fun, or at least interesting, to have or battle against a completely luck-based Pokemon team. Metronome is already one of my favorite moves due to its gimmick, so a single Pokemon or entire team based solely around luck and chance is intriguing.
I just love how completely unbalanced Pachikuru is! It's the kind of thing you would absolutely HATE using in a game, but praise for the sheer audacity of it being a thing.
That whole Xxubis section i was just like "please don't be gendered evolutions please don't be gendered evolutions" and let me tell you i was not disappointed
It felt very obvious that Silver was the grandfather of Rubi And I also think that Lance is the grandfather of Pike, or his greatgrandfather (I don't really remember how many years have passed) Just their names now that I think about it Lance Pike
It's supposed to be 100 years after Red & Blue, which raises the question of how Silver seems middle aged at best and without any cybernetic enhancements.
I love the Neon Genesis/Ghetsis storyline so far, because hot damn is it amazing! Also ngl when I saw thr Xxubus' in the thumbnail my brain went "caveman ooga booga" mode lol I also love the Bombfullo and Purreshiss evos as well!
Fun fact! Lockstin already covered the incubus/succubus being the same demon. But I recently saw a tumblr post saying that succubus & incubus come from the Latin words succubara (to lie under) & incubara (to lie on) so which one they are is dictated my their… *ahem* preferred position. A fun bonus fact: Another tumblr post from the first one suggests the inclusion of a “switch” based demon called concubus (to lie with/beside)
Here’s another neat thing about Xxubis’s name, whether intentional or not. In English, the letter X often is used as a placeholder for an unknown or arbitrary letter or word, particularly when there are multiple options that are interchangeable with each other. Often in reference to X being used for unknown numbers in math problems. This is also the case on occasion with non-English languages that have rigidly-defined gendered words. So, with Xxubis’s form being arbitrary, it can be either a succubus or an incubus; the prefix is unknown at first glance. So “Xxubis” serves as a middle ground, with the “x”s serving as a placeholder for both possibilities.
I like how this series is both narrative- like Toby's Pokemon Tempest but also goes deep into explaining the Pokemon. I never finished Tempest because I preferred learning about the deep lore in the Kaskade series. This is the best of both worlds. Also if Zzimp is genderless, what determines its evolution. I'm thinking of doing is based on natues and the...stereotypes that would lead one to associate each personality type with certain sexual preferences, based on how succubus means to lie under and incubus means to lie ontop
Very clever how you managed to put Pokemon inspired by ZZZ and XXX in the same evolution line. I never thought those two would ever correlate in any way, but I guess I was wrong.
Hold on... a Mafia Boss that actually wants to *fix* things? I mean, i guess it does makes sense for someone who has all the power they would ever want, and also wisened up a bit with their lifespan nearing it's end. This is so cool! All these animated story bits are so cool! I recall you planning on working on your own pokemon fangame - can somebody tell me if that's true? It would be awesome if you made one... except maybe rebrand everything to be legally distinct enough from pokemon so we don't have a repeat of Uranium.
Fun fact: Incubi & Succubi arguably aren't explicitly male or female, but tops & bottoms respectively. Incubus comes from the latin phrase "Incubare" meaning to lie on, while succubus comes from "succubare", meaning to lie under. So really, female incubuses are dominatrixes while male succubuses are femboys. And for those wondering, a switch would be a "concubus", coming from "concubare" meaning to lie beside.
I really love how much the Lockemon presentation style has grown and I inwardly chuckle when Dismander shows up. Keep up your amazing work at your own pace!
Kinda risky gamble, but it was worth, the succubus/incubus was really cool, and I believe that the pokemon company would make a succubus/incubus pokemon if it wasn't explicit, was a secondary inspiration
you know. the alternate timburr evo came off as super weird to me at first, but every time it shows up in response to someone askin a question, rhetorical or otherwise, i keeps gettin a chuckle outta me.
Given the etimology of the Cubi I like the read that gender( Sucubus vs Incubus) is not dictated by sex but rather by preference This would make switches Non Binary
First of all, I was not expecting to see Magnai in this video, but I'll not pass up a chance to enjoy yet another dig at the guy. I can still hear Sadu's reaction to the burn Y'shtola dropped on him! Also, it's rather apropos to see him in a video about the introduction of yet another waifu/husbando Pokemon to the world. Maybe someday he'll find his Nhaama...
The moment I heard Lockstin say the words "little sun" while editing, I just couldn't resist throwing in a reference to Magnai. Lol Y"shtola: "I am..... not interested little sun. Try again when you've become a man."
I can't tell you how much I love the running Dismandurr gag. Also, if the world to supposed to have been destroyed in some form or another, I'm surprised Zygarde didn't step in sooner, or I'm even sure Rayquaza would do something if it came down to it, that's kind of their jobs

2nd ability could be an altered Moody that either buffs or nerfs your stats equally.
Example: 1st turn you get extra attack, 2nd turn you get extra sp.def, 3rd turn you get less speed. All the same amount, so you can't just stall to become an unstoppable force.
.
Also, imo, it's stats should have a lot of variety, to fit the theme of randomness. You could get one tanky speedy boy with not a lot of attack or a slow special sweeper.
Honestly, the entire Pachikuru portion, I was thinking about how casinos never have flat odds; there's a reason "the House always wins."
Giving Pachikuru some kind of mechanic where if it harms itself using Wager, it guarantees a 'big payout' the next turn, a little like using Stone Edge and Stomping Tantrum on the same moveset. If you land Stone Edge, brilliant, you've dished out one of the best Rock moves in the game. If you missed, well... Stomping Tantrum's souped up now. House wins.
@@QuantumWaltz that would actually be kinda nice and balance out the randomness

I have had some thoughts of my own around a normal/psychic meow that line but it kinda went the casino route since the meow thing variant was tuxedo cat colored (and with the evolution being named purrdicsian dumb i know). But basing it off of actual mythology along with vibes is awesome! You never cease to impress
So, what would determine which form of Xxubis it is that a given Zzimp would evolve into? Is it stat based, like with Tyrouge? Is it completely random, like with Wurmple? Is it based on holding a certain item?
I think it could work in a quite unique way. Zzimp would evovle into a more feminine looking Xxubis if there are more Male Pokemon on the team, while it will try to evovle into the more masculine looking evo if there are more Female Pokemon. If there aren't any other pokémon or that the number of male and female pokemon on the party are the same, it will just not evolve.
Also, I would like for them to be like Meowstic, in the way that they have the same stats, same Dex number but have unique Entry and share 2 Abillities but have a different hidden abillity
Maybe its nature? We haven’t seen that one yet.
I like the idea of it evolving based on stats. That, or it can be based on some obscure id number like with wurmple and silcoon/cascoon
@@FishBola1991 doesn't Toxtricity evolve based on Nature?
@@dieghautdeforme5049 ooo I like that idea
Pachikuru with loaded dice from scarlet and violet will be devastating! Maybe they can have some moves like double slap that are already luck based and are not affected by randomize. I also imagine them having super powerful moves like psychic and zen headbutt earlier since it will only be half effective half of the time.
I'm really enjoying the more storytelling kind of introductions to these Lockemon. Keep up the good work!
This is really well done and interesting, can't wait to see what shall unfold, especially with Giovanni, he's always up to something, even if he's playing good guy now there must be some ulterior motive. Also jeez where did Lance go wrong, Pike looks like him, similar names, they must be related, but... I don't know, guessing being in a former champions shadow all his life did this? Poor guy. Also strange... is that not Giovanni? Why would Silver 1 be working for him, and 2 to call him boss, his father, not saying he'd call him father, but to address the one that abandoned him and he refused to be like, to just following him... what's up, something fishy is going on here.
Pachikuru sounds like it would be completely insufferable in battle. Perfect for my team!
Insufferable to which side? Who knows?
@@theknightwithabadpictotall7639YES.
@Surge Co. Channel I agree! It'd be fun, or at least interesting, to have or battle against a completely luck-based Pokemon team. Metronome is already one of my favorite moves due to its gimmick, so a single Pokemon or entire team based solely around luck and chance is intriguing.
I just love how completely unbalanced Pachikuru is! It's the kind of thing you would absolutely HATE using in a game, but praise for the sheer audacity of it being a thing.
I hope Razpurt gets an evolution! Even if it doesn't, I'd still use it on my team. I'd name it Razpberry X:)
Thats great to hear ^^ -the artist
I love that name and I'm gonna steal it
(edit) also yeah, this guy needs an evolution
If it came from charmander, then who knows, it t might become a big poisonous dragon like monster.
I’d name mine Razputin 😂
That whole Xxubis section i was just like "please don't be gendered evolutions please don't be gendered evolutions" and let me tell you i was not disappointed
It felt very obvious that Silver was the grandfather of Rubi
And I also think that Lance is the grandfather of Pike, or his greatgrandfather (I don't really remember how many years have passed)
Just their names now that I think about it
Lance
Pike
It's supposed to be 100 years after Red & Blue, which raises the question of how Silver seems middle aged at best and without any cybernetic enhancements.
@@DarthMolgy I was wondering that too
But maybe there is some infinity energy stuff that happened for him to age more slowly
It speaks to where pokemon is now that I looked at a whole Succubus Imp Pokemon and didn't even bat an eye
I love the Neon Genesis/Ghetsis storyline so far, because hot damn is it amazing! Also ngl when I saw thr Xxubus' in the thumbnail my brain went "caveman ooga booga" mode lol I also love the Bombfullo and Purreshiss evos as well!
3:21 alright internet, *time to do your thing again*
Lockstin goes on for like 4 minutes talking about waifubait and simps and then drops THIS ON US!! 8:46
OH MAMA!!
I know right?
Bombullo's packing that HEAT! Just look at those guns!
Fun fact!
Lockstin already covered the incubus/succubus being the same demon. But I recently saw a tumblr post saying that succubus & incubus come from the Latin words succubara (to lie under) & incubara (to lie on) so which one they are is dictated my their… *ahem* preferred position.
A fun bonus fact:
Another tumblr post from the first one suggests the inclusion of a “switch” based demon called concubus (to lie with/beside)
“This is a male by the way”
*that only makes it better*
Here’s another neat thing about Xxubis’s name, whether intentional or not. In English, the letter X often is used as a placeholder for an unknown or arbitrary letter or word, particularly when there are multiple options that are interchangeable with each other. Often in reference to X being used for unknown numbers in math problems. This is also the case on occasion with non-English languages that have rigidly-defined gendered words.
So, with Xxubis’s form being arbitrary, it can be either a succubus or an incubus; the prefix is unknown at first glance. So “Xxubis” serves as a middle ground, with the “x”s serving as a placeholder for both possibilities.
I like how this series is both narrative- like Toby's Pokemon Tempest but also goes deep into explaining the Pokemon. I never finished Tempest because I preferred learning about the deep lore in the Kaskade series. This is the best of both worlds.
Also if Zzimp is genderless, what determines its evolution. I'm thinking of doing is based on natues and the...stereotypes that would lead one to associate each personality type with certain sexual preferences, based on how succubus means to lie under and incubus means to lie ontop
Or it may just be random
Very clever how you managed to put Pokemon inspired by ZZZ and XXX in the same evolution line. I never thought those two would ever correlate in any way, but I guess I was wrong.
"this is a male btw"
The 200 R34 artists that already started drawing: "ABORT ABORT ABORT"
The other 5: *"CONTINUE CONTINUE CONTINUE"*
Hold on... a Mafia Boss that actually wants to *fix* things? I mean, i guess it does makes sense for someone who has all the power they would ever want, and also wisened up a bit with their lifespan nearing it's end. This is so cool! All these animated story bits are so cool!
I recall you planning on working on your own pokemon fangame - can somebody tell me if that's true? It would be awesome if you made one... except maybe rebrand everything to be legally distinct enough from pokemon so we don't have a repeat of Uranium.
Fun fact: Incubi & Succubi arguably aren't explicitly male or female, but tops & bottoms respectively. Incubus comes from the latin phrase "Incubare" meaning to lie on, while succubus comes from "succubare", meaning to lie under. So really, female incubuses are dominatrixes while male succubuses are femboys.
And for those wondering, a switch would be a "concubus", coming from "concubare" meaning to lie beside.
@Marav Reviews I think you missed the point of the Pokémon
I really love how much the Lockemon presentation style has grown and I inwardly chuckle when Dismander shows up. Keep up your amazing work at your own pace!
Kinda risky gamble, but it was worth, the succubus/incubus was really cool, and I believe that the pokemon company would make a succubus/incubus pokemon if it wasn't explicit, was a secondary inspiration
Are you a Pachikuru
@@captaindoesyoutube7925 no, why?
@@samm425 I was making a joke on the word gamble and Pachikuru’s theming
@@captaindoesyoutube7925 oh, I thought that could be that but since he made the gamble not me, I thought that wasn't that
you know. the alternate timburr evo came off as super weird to me at first, but every time it shows up in response to someone askin a question, rhetorical or otherwise, i keeps gettin a chuckle outta me.
Given the etimology of the Cubi
I like the read that gender( Sucubus vs Incubus) is not dictated by sex but rather by preference
This would make switches Non Binary
4:20 You juat gave thicc thighs to a shortstack pokemon 💀
It's Midna all over again.
6:34 when you first revealed zimp and machug, I thought they were in swirling seasons
3:08 anyone else react the same way to Xxubis launching Razpurt.
Also love the design of Bombfullo
7:43 Of course he HAD to put a Dismandurr cameo, didn't he?
Some amazing new designs for this episode! Always amazes me how many elements can come together into one creature - incredible entry into the series!
Also! Just got my Snugooi plush - it is so, so soft and good and well made. I love it!
3:15 “Razpurt is basting off agaaiiiiiiiiiiin!!!”
We've seen multiple characters now with rainbow-coloured rocks on them... something to do with mega evolution, perhaps?
That's a really neat take on a succubus/incubus Pokemon, being genderless but can take the form of whatever the target is infatuated by.
This is without a doubt the best series you have done. Dissmann is always predictable but hilarious.
Lockstin stepped up the maturity , a succubus Pokémon and drug references!? 🤯
Yes. POKEMON WILL NEVER DO THIS! I kinda wish they tried it tho.
The last video had drug refernces too.
@@NintendoSegaGuys Even the first video had drug references, with Neo Primeape
Wait I forgot which video Neo Primeape was in my bad
@@theknightwithabadpictotall7639 Thats what I meant.
Purreshiss pushing giovanni's wheelchair is too funny and it reminds me of that chocolate scene from spongebob 🤣
What if Pachikuru had a move where it has a 50/50 chance of either instantly killing the opponent or itself
Guillotine but it always works but also you don't get to choose who it works on
17:18 just how menacing pushing wheelchairs sounds is funny in and of itself XD
I always love these designs and ideas! I love seeing the design inspirations for all the fakemon!
I know thats a futeristic city kinda vibe but, HOLY HECK THATS A LOT OF POISON TYPES!!!
I mean, it’s a futuristic Kanye what do you expect
Rubi Rocket’s gonna get a whole lot of interesting fanart coming her way xD
I would love to see fanart of her.
@@mousealchemist i don't think you want a certain type of fanart...
has a r unown
14:52 looks like Lance (or his decendent) let himself go
Pachikuru is pure chaos. If this ever becomes a game and someone plays and beats the whole game with Pachikuru, that would be extremely impressive.
"Can I beat Pokémon Legends NEO: Ghetsis with only one Pachikuru?"
- Mah-Dry-Bread, probably
I love Xxcubis ... AND the remix of Zinnia's Bettle Theme in the background during their part ~
I want Pachikuru to be an actual Pokémon. An EXTREME luck based Pokémon sounds amazing and could make for some funny challenge runs.
I can already see the Mah-Dry-Bread video
Lockstin defining the “simp”is hilarious to me.
I like how you can clearly tell that bombfullo is drawn by someone else then xxubus or the others
First of all, I was not expecting to see Magnai in this video, but I'll not pass up a chance to enjoy yet another dig at the guy. I can still hear Sadu's reaction to the burn Y'shtola dropped on him!
Also, it's rather apropos to see him in a video about the introduction of yet another waifu/husbando Pokemon to the world. Maybe someday he'll find his Nhaama...
The moment I heard Lockstin say the words "little sun" while editing, I just couldn't resist throwing in a reference to Magnai. Lol
Y"shtola: "I am..... not interested little sun. Try again when you've become a man."
...do we know if they're gonna make a game based off of this??? I love this so much
I can't tell you how much I love the running Dismandurr gag. Also, if the world to supposed to have been destroyed in some form or another, I'm surprised Zygarde didn't step in sooner, or I'm even sure Rayquaza would do something if it came down to it, that's kind of their jobs
THIS SERIES IS SO AMAZING AND KEEPS ON BUILDING! I’M AT THE EDGE OF MY SEAT. THANKS FOR DOING SOMETHING WITH MY FAVORITE LEGENDARY!
I am ridiculously invested in this series.
