Its a bit old now but there is a free pokemon fan game for PC called Pokemon Reborn that is basically the dark gritty Pokemon you want, like the game opens with you dodging a terrorist bombing on a train and it just goes with that tone from there https://www.rebornevo.com/pr/index.html/

2023-06-19 19:34:57 +0000 UTCas an Ohioan I have always believed Michigan sucks but the last few years of Ohio trying to strip my rights while Michigan is doing the opposite has shaken this belief

2023-06-19 03:09:16 +0000 UTCI also believe in greater Michigan. I'm a Minnesotan who doesn't recognize the sovereignty of wisconsin. It should be split between Michigan and Minnesota. Erasing the farce that is wisconsin state government.

2023-06-18 23:14:24 +0000 UTCSo one of my friends from Australia for some reason always wanted to go to Toledo just so he could say "Holy Toledo." For a work trip that went to Cleveland (or Columbus), he decided to make a side trip to Toledo. He regrets that decision to this day.

Controlled burns are pretty cool, reduces apocalyptic fires while allowing for increased forest diversity due to early successional growth. One of those indigenous practices modern ecologists and forestry professionals are copying
