My friend, Sudowoodo.

Now look, I don’t know the minutiae of Pokémon. I know of it through osmosis, and got roped into playing Go earlier this year.

??????????

What do I know, though? Sudowoodo is my main man, you better believe. He’s a sentient anthropomorphic rock that pretends to be a tree as camouflage. Sure he’s afraid of rain, but he’s got an affable charm about him.

This goofy, lanky misfit is the Pokémon equivalent to Cosmo Kramer, or any of the Three Stooges. He’s happy-go-lucky, prone weird phobias, but can whoop yer ass if you exhaust his magnanimity. He’s the kind of guy you want to go galavanting around town with—hitting up donut shops, catching a Liam Neeson flick with, and feasting fiercely together at the nearest Applebee’s Neighborhood Bar & Grille.

I’ve slowly been trying to learn more?@affinitybyserif?on the iPad, and it’s a ton of fun—and thought I should pay homage to this magnificent Pokémon bastard.
