No. 385: Jirachi

When you wish / upon a star...

Mew is cute and tiny, and is awesome. Celebi tried to be cute and tiny, and failed. Now it's Jirachi's turn. Does it succeed?

Well, it does have a striking design. Head shaped like a star, trailing bits, and 3 tags on its points. Reminds me of a Japanese shrine maiden, a little bit. The typing, Steel/Psychic, seems a little random, but I'm not complaining. Then there's the fact that it has a signature move called Doom Desire, which is more than a little threatening.

Maybe that's what Jirachi does, it lures you in, and then

OH GOD WHAT IS THAT

IT HAS AN EYE ON ITS CHEST HOLY SHIT WHO WOULD EVEN PUT THAT THERE

ONLY THE DEAD CAN KNOW PEACE FROM THIS EVIL


Overall: 7/10

  1. Despite most people not giving a damn bout Jap culture it's tag are based off a Japanese holiday called Tanabata where you stick tags on a tree and make a wish.

    Plus it looks like a star so bonus points for combining cultures.
