Pat T.

Debut: Mario Kart World
Attack: Quarter Pounder
Super Spike: Burger Bash
Type: Balanced
Speed: 4/10
Power: 5/10
Pass: 6/10
Spike: 6/10

Pat T. is the mascot of Yoshi's, and is one of A. Wristo Croix's business partners. His trademark burger hat has given him the nickname "Burger Bud." Pat T. was recently made aware of the unique and delicious food of the Feast Layer, and the Fractones there were more than happy to lend some of their meat for a new burger product! The meat is incredibly tough, but so juicy and savory when you can finally crack it open! The Quarter Pounder ability has Pat T. lay on the floor and spin around, striking enemies with his giant burger hat. It's got a TON of reach, but also leaves him a bit dizzy afterwards. Burger Bash lets him summon a gigantic burger, which towers as high as a building, before he topples it over the ball.

Swea T.

Debut: Mario Kart World
Attack: Brain Freeze
Super Spike: Soft-Served
Type: Technique
Speed: 7/10
Power: 2/10
Pass: 2/10
Spike: 9/10

Swea T. is Pat T.'s wife, and another employee of A. Wristo Croix. Not only does she run part of the Yoshi's food chain in the icy regions of the world, but she also owns Sky-High Sundae, a theme park/restaurant combo and a subsidiary of Yoshi's. Recently, she's taken a trip to the Freezer Layer to get new ingredients for her theme park's menu, with the number-one item being Banandium Cream Sundaes! When she uses Brain Freeze, she spins around to generate icy air from her ice cream hat, which freezes anyone nearby in place! For her Super Spike, she uses Soft-Served, where she takes a cone and piles scoops and scoops of ice cream. She'll swing it at the ball like a bat, sending it flying with furious, but flavorful speed.

someone got angry at Phil's comments about queer people saying "what's next, trans veggietales?" and he responded with "yes, bob and larry are trans"

how do you come back from that? you don't

Pokerninja2 @phdedede.bsky.social · 1d

nah because i'd deactivate if i got clapped back like this

Screencap of a thread from Twitter. The messages are as follows:

Keith Andrew: "Good God man, what kind of woke idiot have you devolved into. What's next? Trans Veggie tales where Veggies come out as fruit?"

Josh: "Please calm down"

Keith Andrew: "I'm very calm. Just disgusted."

Phil Vischer: "Botanically speaking, cucumbers and tomatoes are, in fact, fruit. Sorry about that."

I REALLY wish Dashie played the TTYD remake past the first part he did. He injects a lot of raunchy humor into whatever Mario games he's playing so it would have been super entertaining for him to play a game that's raunchy right back

Jizo

Debut: Super Mario Odyssey
Attack: Statue Stomp
Type: Technique
Speed: 1/10
Power: 6/10
Pass: 2/10
Spike: 9/10

If you're touring Bowser's Kingdom, why not take a stop at the souvenir shop? Not to buy souvenirs, but to admire the ancient statues around the shop's garden! It's clear that these Jizos have a mysterious history to them. Perhaps they were a symbol of the kingdom's people before Bowser's takeover? Bonneters are able to Capture them, which allows the Jizos to compete in the Spikers League! Their speed stat of 1 is probably closer to 0.5... they only move in hops! Really short hops, at that. Thankfully, that means they can jump really high for some impressive spikes. The Statue Stomp is also a powerful tool, leaping high in the sky before crashing down and creating a golden shockwave.

Introducing the second course of the Mystic Stone Cup, BrookeTech R&D! The motherboard roads lead drivers into giant supercomputers that can take them through multicolor virtual worlds. You're (usually) given two choices at each leg of this three-section race. The future is now!

A collage of pictures describing a track in Mario Kart World called BrookeTech R&D, a supercomputer research and development facility based on my Mario OC, Brooke. The course icon the entrance to the facility with a motherboard road leading to it, with other motherboard-like tower structures. In front of it is a computer with a BIOS screen reminiscent of Windows 98.

Course Description: "The second course of the Mystic Stone cup is Brooke's first foray into following her parents' footsteps in the tech industry. BrookeTech R&D offers supercomputers that act as portals to virtual worlds!"

Hazards:
Computers - "BrookeTech R&D's computers may look vintage, but driving through one will take drivers to a new, virtual reality!"

Split Paths - "This is a three-section course, and each section splits into two different computers. Players can pick whichever one they want they're all tested to be the same length. Sometimes, a computer may be closed for debugging, funneling all racers into the other. This never happens in Time Trials, though!"

Virtual Worlds - "Each computer is color-coded, which leads every racer to a different world, with their own layouts, obstacles, and shortcuts to learn! All six also have a different theme, such as old-school BIOS layouts, jagged and erratic screensavers, and runaway flowcharts!"

Mario Kart trick animations for Pearl! These were fun to do, maybe I can do these for my other characters
#Mario #SuperMario #MarioKart #MarioKartWorld #Art #Fanart #OC #MarioOC

Four drawings of my OC Pearl driving a kart, striking various poses like how characters in Mario Kart can stunt off ramps. From left to right: Pearl turning back and waving at the screen; Pearl standing on one foot with her arms spread and her leg raised; Pearl turning around and smiling as her crystal hair shimmers; and Pearl making a heart symbol with her hands, and a crystal heart resembling her crystal hair appearing within them.

A new one shot was made to commemorate the Galaxy Switch ports. Introducing Pearl's quiet but loving cousin Platinum! He gets to show Pearl the stars in the night sky, something he discovered during his own little adventure on the surface. This is my favorite one shot so far!

Cover art of Star Gazers, a one-shot starring my Mario OCs Pearl and Platinum. They are standing on a hill looking up at the stars in the night sky. It is drawn in a style similar to the Galaxy games' storybooks.

You probably don't think the mice or crows in Luigi's Mansion are as scary as the ghosts. Seeing a whole pack of them riding a runaway lawnmower, though? THAT might send some shivers down your spine!
#Mario #SuperMario #Art #Fanart #Luigi'sMansion #LuigisMansion

Pest Pack

Debut: Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon
Attack: Violent Vermin
Super Spike: Infestation
Type: Offensive
Speed: 5/10
Power: 6/10
Pass: 3/10
Spike: 7/10

Ghosts aren't the only things living in haunted mansions - lots of small animals have made their home in these abandoned abodes. A group of these critters seem to have hijacked a lawnmower from Haunted Towers, and are using it to exterminate the competition in the Spikers League. A vacuum isn't gonna save you from this pack of runaway animals! Violent Vermin will have one of the eight pests hop off and attack nearby foes. There's a rat, a beetle, a spider, a frog, a crow, a bat, a snake, and a... piranha? And all of them have their own unique way of harassing opponents. After awhile, they return to the lawnmower. Infestation has them summon entire swarms of pests to surround the ball and deliver a powerful combined spike.

These statues around Bowser's Kingdom are beautiful, but can they play volleyball? With the help of a Bonneter, of course they can! They can jump high for spikes and create shockwaves by landing. Don't expect them to win the 100m dash though...

gotta say, the new storybook makes the existing scenes with lubba hit WAY different. girl went from "funny side character" to "she wanted to end her life as a luma (become a star) just to escape from the overwhelming loneliness"

Chapter 3 is even better 👀

in the span of 24 hours Lubba went from "comedic side character" to "an example of how you can rise from a deep, painful, sorrow point in your life and come out happier and more passionate than ever. and she's also trans"

And here's Platinum, the new character introduced for this story!

Read it here: www.fanfiction.net/s/14512697/1...

Platinum
Age: 6
Race: Underworlder
Birthplace: The Underworld

Platinum is Pearl's quiet, easygoing cousin. He typically keeps to himself, but doesn't mind the occasional conversation. Before meeting her new friends, Platinum was the closest thing Pearl had to a best friend. He's a bit more ambivalent towards his duties as prince compared to Pearl. Instead, his heart is dedicated to the strange bright lights on the surface world's ceiling. He'd spend most of his free time trying to look at them through a bottomless pit from his telescope. It wasn't until Pearl brought him to the surface that he learned they were called stars.
