Ask the Mustachioed Machamp

I saw that a lot of others here have these Q&A threads, so I figured 'why not jump on that bandwagon?'. And so here we are. Feel free to ask me anything you want, but I do maintain the right not to answer anything to personal, or that I just just don't want to answer for some reason.

 

1. No, I do not currently own a car. Or a driver's license for that matter. I should probably get working on that.
2. I'd say the most underrated Pokémon would probably be Dunsparce. It doesn't really have anything going for it, has no evolutions/alternate forms/etc. and it gets little exposure or recognition (at least that I've noticed). Yet I just find something charming about the land snake Pokémon.
3. I've never really been into sports, and even less into college sports.

 

1. That's a tough one. I like pretty much everything I've tried except zucchini, seaweed and anything coffee flavored. If I had to pick a favorite food combination though, I'd probably say... pasta (any kind) with a side of salad.
2. I'm perfectly content with my natural brown hair, but if I had to choose any other color it would be black (if I'm sticking to 'natural' colors) or dark blue (if I'm not).

 

1. Not really. I'm more of a function over ascetics kind of guy.
2. I'm more likely to be early to an appointment because I often tend to overestimate how long it will take me to get somewhere and leave earlier than I need to.
3. I wouldn't say I have a favorite tree, per say, but I do prefer evergreens over leafy trees.

There's an interesting story behind that (or at least I think its interesting anyway). Back before Sun and Moon came out, my friend and I were coming up with ideas of possible Alolan forms for Pokémon that weren't confirmed to have them yet. One of the ideas I came up with was to have forms of Machamp and Alakazam that take on each other's attributes. Machamp would become Fighting/Psychic and gain Alazakam's mustache while losing two of its arms. Alakazam would become Psychic/Fighting and gain Machamp's four heavily muscled arms. After that I decided to edit the official artwork of Machamp into what I had in mind while I had some free time and thought it turned out well. When I signed up on here, I wasn't sure what to use as my profile image, so I went with that.
Here's my old profile picture for future reference.

Spoiler

 

1. I prefer day. At night its dark and cold outside and its not exactly safe to go outside. Day on the other hand is well lit and warm thinks to the sun. Admittedly I spend most of my time indoors, but I'm generally tired at night compared to during the day, so day still wins.
2. I can't say I'm particularly fond of either, but if I had to choose between the two I'd probably go with cold weather. In cold weather you can bundle up in warm clothes, blankets, etc. to warm up; while in hot weather once your in light clothing that's about all you can do and you're still stuck with the heat.

 

1. I am interested in eventually visiting the east coast, though I do not currently have any plans to go.
2. My favorite soda would be anything lemon/lime (Sprite, Seira Mist, etc.) I have no preference in terms of brand.

 

1. I'm not very fond of cats, but I can tolerate them. My relationship with dogs is much more complicated. Although I've always liked the idea of dogs and, for example, like a lot of canine Pokémon; I've been terrified of actual dogs ever since I was little. i attribute this to my grandfather's dog, Cody (named after the Kodiak Bear). In front of my grandfather, Cody would behave nice enough, but when my grandpa wasn't there, Cody was absolutely vicious. I still remember one night when he chased me around the parking-lot outside my grandpa's house/business and I learned a few years ago that one of my cousins still has scars from when he bit her as a child. I have gotten much better around dogs in resent years though and only have issues when they're acting hostile. If I had to get a cat or dog, I'd choose a dog. It could help me further get over my issues with them and serve as a guard dog.
2. There are a lot of cartoons I remember fondly from my childhood. If I had to choose a favorite, I'd have to say Loony Toons. Technically from before my time, but a watched a lot on tape and on Boomerang (a channel that focuses on older cartoons).
3. It would depend on how accurate it is. A lot of adaptations these days feel like they have almost nothing to do with the books (like the Percy Jackson series) in which cases I would rather read the book. If the movie actually did follow the book, then I'd rather watch the movie.
4. The only Pokémon Mystery Dungeon game I've played is Red Rescue Dungeon, so that one is my favorite by default. I enjoyed the characters and the story; and overall I enjoyed the game play, but had a few problems with it. I hate the hunger system, I don't like that you can't rename Pokémon after you've recruited them, the recruitment rates feel way too low for a lot of Pokémon and a little too high for some, and the post-game dungeons where you start at level 1 are nightmares. Other than those few problems, I really enjoyed the game, but just haven't been interested enough in the newer ones to try them.

 

1. I already answered that question.
2. I don't really listen to birds that ofter, but I do enjoy it every once in a while.
3. I used to be afraid of the dark when I was younger, but not so much anymore. I guess I still am somewhat, but not very much. Definitely not as bad a fear for me as spiders or heights.

1. I'm not sure there is any one thing you would need to see, but if I had to recomend just one thing it would either be Crater Lake or Mt. Hood.
2. I took a Karate lesson when I was younger. I got really sick the next day and never went back. Other than that, not really.

 

1. My favorite shiny Pokémon would be Charizard or Rayquaza. Taking the awesome dragon designs and giving them a black recolor just looks awesome. I've also become partial to Nidoking due it being my first non-event shiny (I got it while breeding Nidoran to trade away.
2. Wooper, hands down. Its axolotl design is much more interesting than Quagsire's design.
3. I don't have the patience for shiny hunting. As much as I'd like to have a large collection of shinies, jI'm trying to reach Living Pokédex status and that's a big enough challenge for me.
