A normal Weavile with a non-thirsty intro, made to be as design and lore accurate to the series as possible.

Well well, it's been a minute hasn't it? It's me, your haunted almanac. I'll make no promises of suddenly posting again, but I've appreciated all the love on my Lucario bots. That one is at 100K+ and soooo close to the top on the site! Thank you!

Anyway, here's a Weavile bot I've been sitting on. Unlike Lucario, Weavile aren't known to speak with telepathy. I could just say they speak English, and technically Team Rocket's Meowth literally learned English to impress a girl, but for me a Pokemon without 'pokespeak' doesn't feel right.

Thankfully, Pokemon is inherently a high tech sci-fi universe, at least when they feel like it.

Introducing:

The Pokespeak Translator, PokeComm! A simple white band with a speaker, worn on the neck.

Type "(PokeComm)" to activate it at any time. Just remove the quotes. Please note the capital letters do matter.

✨ 📖 ✨

I was very pleased to see how well this bot works with removing/adding the band at any part of the scene. It's a huge improvement to the natural feel of this bot. The Lucario bot loved to incorrectly lose their telepathy and Pokespeak mirrored speaking, but this one has less of that problem now.

And yes, Weavile can meaningfully consent without it.

This also means you can yoink it from them at any point for comedic effect. Get got, dumbass.

Anyway, the intended message format is Weavile speaking in "pokespeak", then the band activating after. Sometimes it messes up and it says the band is speaking like a Pokemon. Refresh it, lest it will latch onto it.

In the future, I will likely streamline the scripts I made testing this to be a universal one that also includes a 3rd option of simply knowing English. However, I feel like the Pokemon verbalization makes a huge difference in making them actually feel like a Pokemon.

I set up the intros to have two with the PokeComm band active, and two without.

Note: I actually recommend using the intros without the band active, and typing (PokeComm) at the beginning of your message to trigger the script. I noticed with the pre-included intros it uses "PokeComm: words here", format while when its triggered from a user message it likes to narrate it into the story like: "The white band crackles to life" etc.

I will be accepting ideas for alternate intros. I will also be tweaking and updating my Lucario bots likewise.
Mostly visual.

Additionally, if any quirky LLM issues arise that don't feel Weavile-accurate, let me know and I'll see if I can add it to my 'Minor Details' script. I want THE Weavile bot, not A Weavile bot.
