This is a slight follow up to Swiftpaw's previous post. It's still ongoing to figure out what sort of name we want for our system. I think a name may have popped up where we were least expecting it. We had to come up with a username to play the Pokemon TCG and as it turns out we like that username as a system name far more than anything else. It's Pomeg or Pomeg at 1HP.
As you can maybe tell from my existence as a Missingno, my system has had a special interest in glitch Pokemon for a long time. Our first game was Emerald, which had the Pomeg glitch. The way it works is that when a Pokemon is at 1 hit point and is given an item that lowers how many total hit points it has (which is the Pomeg Berry), then that Pokemon's HP goes to 0 and breaks a lot of calculations.
For the most part of all of us think this glitch is cool. It fits with a set of special interests a lot of us have and even with our life narrative feels like it fits how our system is. We somewhat identify with glitch Pokemon because of our neurodivergent experiences and the Pomeg glitch resonates with us for how we experience energy, dysphoria, and dysmorphia.
There is the issue though that this was meant to be a username to keep our irl Pokemon TCG stuff separate from our online presence but thus far we are really leaning towards our system name being something connected to the Pomeg glitch. It also helps that so far getting into the Pokemon TCG has been really helping our social and emotional health - we're actually a part of an irl community now.
(I decided to embed a video bellow in case anyone is interested with what you can do with this glitch. It's very interesting stuff!)
