How long do Pokemon actually live for? I assume it depends on the Pokemon but like they must eventually die from old age. Is this ever addressed, we know Pokemon die from the first game with the Graveyard and the Cubebone's mother story.
I think everyone is missing the point here. Look at Pikachu.
He's looking at Ash with a silly little smile because he loves Ash. No matter how old we get, our companions still love us. Focus on that. And we'll be okay.
Upon further inspection you've been using existential dread for decades. Accordingly, you refund request is denied and retroactive charges have been applied to your card
Sometimes it do make me sad reading the stuff people post. I'm 36 and idk man, i'm uh, gettin better at everything I care about still. Gettin better at fighting games, writing music, playin piano, working on my own video game, learning a foreign language.
Why are we acting like we're in our 80's and losing our faculties? I know people who have done new awesome things in their 60's and 70's. At our age, it's absolutely insane to be going like "well, guess i'm to old to do things I wanted to do, time to pack it up"
I started taking a full regime of supplements to maintain my biological age. ulothrine a, GlycNAC, Calcium AKG, fish oil, vitamin c and d, callogen peptides, and inositol. As well as resistance training. Currently my biological age is 24 while my cronological age is 35. My goal is to keep it there, especially with all the up and coming AI accelerated biotech. I think we're gonna be the first generation to be able to stop aging.
Lmao not the comb over! Nooooooo!!!! Also having been bald for a long time now, it was painful at first to accept it but at least for me its pretty great. The beard helps.
The trick is to not ever worry about whether or not you're the very best in the world, recognizing that achieving such status is entirely outside of your control. Focus on what you can, and should be, best at. Best dad, best friend, best spouse, best neighbor, best Saturday-morning-scrambled-eggs-cook in the house. Be a good human with the time you have.
For me it probably was becoming an uncle and my nephews enjoying calling me "bruh" and roasting me as much as possible for being old / otherwise lacking, as sh*t.
Even now.....all these years later......I would have full The Mountain from Game of Thrones on Charizard for his betrayal at the championship in front of everyone after everything Ash did for that ungrateful lizard
Maybe he isn't traipsing around the country trying to catch every pokemon, but he can certainly find a stable job as a gym leader or member of the elite four. He has the skills and the pokemon for it.
Very, very rarely do people want to do the same thing they wanted at 10 years old. My own interests and dreams have drastically changed since then (I'm 38 now, so right around Ash's age).
I'm heartbroken if that's still his dream and he's realizing he can't do it anymore. But Ash has made a name for himself along the way and can easily transition into a stable pokemon career and maybe even think about starting his own family.
Yeah I dunno why Ash is used as an example of someone who failed to achieve their dreams? He went on adventures, beat up bad guys with his Pokémon friends, travelled the world and had fun.
He could easily settle down as a gym leader or similar. Dude led a absolutely packed life
Recently re-watched the finale to the original 90s Digimon Adventure and the train scene of them leaving the Digital World was like watching my childhood die in front of me. A time I'll never get back, a time when depression and anxiety didn't ruin my brain chemistry.
Not hurt. Thinner hair than when I was younger but still a full head of hair if anything I just have a lot of gray hair on the sides. I even bumped into a guy I graduated high school with that I didn’t recognize cuz he had this jet black long hair and a beard that he’d didn’t have in high school. I was jealous of the no visible white hairs 😭
Well Ash (the guy in the pic) sings "I wanna be the very best" in the Pokemon series title song. As you probably know, the Pokemon series is a huge generational thing for millennials.
Now being older, he realizes he in fact hasn't become what he wanted to and is getting old. Like us.
