Online shopping is booming here, even more than before covid. Delivery services are having a hard time keeping up lol
I do prefer physical stores, but I think they'll have a hard time returning, since a lot of them seemed to already be losing the battle against online shopping =(

It makes me sad to be honest. Like we see how much the economy and society lack resilience :(

Even when it comes to normal shops, the battle is still going between small centre city shops and big shopping malls... and between different malls too :)

I do much prefer trying things on / looking at stuff in shops, rather than online, but online commerce has certainly been a good thing during the pandemic.

But...

I have met many, many, lovely people in shops, venues etc. that I have talked to for years. It's so sad to watch them all disappear one by one </3

I can definitely relate with trying things and visiting shops... and also, sending hugs for that, Ash <3

Well I guess since I live in a small town it's less noticeable, but most of the stores here were small local stores rather than national chains. Apart from the supermarkets that is.

I think magcargo has a really cool design being a lava slug.

I'm not sure why I picked vulpix, it's not my favorite fire type or anything. I think I was searching images and thought "oh this looks neat for an avatar".

Either way vulpix is still great, so is growlithe

oh yeah growlithe too, my bro had firered and i had leafgreen so we had to trade a vulpix and growlithe to each other. I love the anime art style it does make for great avatars 😀
i like magcargo since i caught one when i first played pokemon ruby and thought it looked cool. i had played pokemon gold before then but slugma is pretty rare to come by it's in like one location or there is a gift egg from a random npc which is easy to miss

thats cool you can always trade it up to the most recent games unllike gen 2 where itd be stuck forever (or 10 years when the batterys had it 😆)
first shiny i saw was a golbat on my pokemon diamond, i didnt even know they were a thing and its bright green so i was dead shocked and unfortunately i had no pokeballs! i kept the game on charge overnight still in battle so i could show my bro the next day but somehow it turned off and he never believed me until we found out about shinies later lol
