Anything goes after Memorial Day

rynlingMy favorite generation of Pokémon games is Sword and Shield. Hands down. I didn't play those two games for as many hours as I played previous generations, but only because I am no longer an insane completionist.
After that, I really like Sun and Moon. This is probably because I was going back and forth to Hawai'i for work fairly often at around the time they came out, but it doesn't hurt that they're fun (and short!) games with an interesting set of themes and characters.
Sun and Moon are also the generation where you could start going wild with dressing up your character, and that is exactly what I did. At first, my character had a very "classic" and preppy look. Then one of the NPCs was like, "I'll give you a special item if you show me the most colorful outfit you have." Just for laughs, I put my trainer in the worst clothing I could find. The absolute worst. Everything was bold patterns in bright clashing colors. And you know what? It was amazing.
That was when I realized: I can dress like this in real life.
So every summer I make it my mission to be a walking OSHA-certified neon recycle bin. I usually go straight for flip-flops, but I have made a thrilling discovery.
