Around 5-10 per day so between 1825 and 3650 :)

Are you on PokéCommunity's Discord, and why/why not?
 
I'm not really on Discord that often, unless to speak to friends. I might use it more often though.

Who is your favorite superhero?
 
Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings
I don't watch movies that often, but watched this one a couple months back. It's from 2021 so I guess it counts =P

What's the longest you've ever grinded in any videogame for something? From a shiny in Pokemon to some rare weapon drop in any RPG, etc etc.
 
I have a shiny Reshiram that I got in Omega Ruby, which took me six months to obtain. The thing is, I have come across shiny Reshiram sooner than that, but because Nature Mints didn't exist then and hyper training wasn't a thing, I had to get a shiny with the right Nature and IV spreads. The entire process took six months. Normally, I don't really care too much for shiny Pokémon, but because Reshiram is my favorite legendary, it was definitely worth it.

How do you define success?
 
The sheer stupidity going on in modern U.S. politics.
After watching both sides of the major political factions beans it so hard over the last decade or so, I'm proud to say I don't support any political party! 👍

What's your favorite movie or game from your least favorite genre?

Spoiler:
 
DOOM as an FPS (even if, honestly, it's more like a beat-them-up with guns, rather than an FPS).
Or Dead Space as a horror game, I don't really like horror games, I'd rather play something not stressful ^^"

How is your sleep?
 
That's a long time ago. In fact it's been so long that I don't even remember when and which one.

I do remember going to a salt museum at some point. That was basically in a town where salt mining was a long lasting tradition so they opened one up at some point. I don't remember much about it, though. ^^"
There might have also been a chocolate museum at some point. But I don't remember anything...

Have you ever visited a mine?

I usually get roughly 6 hours a night, which is below the recommended 8, but I manage and it could be worse ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

To be fair: thise debate basically boils down to "you need as much sleep as you need".
 
Sadly no... But I'd like to!

What personal achievement are you most proud of?
 
I think my high school degree. I mean, I am almost there to get my degree in psychology, so I should say this, but high school was a very bad place under certain conditions. I was often undervalued and at the final exam, when some external teachers came I got higher scores, which kinda helped my self-esteem. I had enough of that place and I studied the bare minimum without caring too much, yet still having some good grades and I got a high score at my degree, so it kinda felt like I won the "high school game".

What's your fav anime?
 
Gintama even though it's been a while since I last watched it.
A bunch of the jokes went past me as they were referencing Anime I hadn't seen yet at the time, which for the sports anime references still holds true lol. I should probably re-watch it some time now that I've watched a lot more Anime.
JJBA is also great and I loved One Piece before it became so dang stretched out.

What's a country you'd like to go to sometime ?

Given how tired I feel in general I'm pretty sure I'm not getting enough =\
 
Some countries of Europe: Poland, Germany, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Iceland, Greece, Italy. Also maybe I should visit the country where I am now ^^"

Do you listen to the same music as when you were younger, or was there an evolutoin?
 
*looks for Italian wells to welcome Cooler the Slowpoke*

Not an evolution, but rather different eras. One constant is I have never been fond of Italian music.
I have always loved foreign music, obviously not understanding it but appreciating the musicality over the lyrics, which explains a lot of my music taste changes lol.

I remember listening to random English music as a child and I loved Mika. Then, during elementary school I kinda got into classical music already as I was about to enter a musical class. I still have a Bach cd that I used to listen to quite a lot. I wasn't super fond of it, but I definitely enjoyed it and loved to recognize how many instruments as I could. Then, around 14-15, I got into pop, when actually it still had some sort of dance vibe and actual dance music from th 80s/90s. I still listened to some classical.16-19 I kinda preferred electronic music, always without lyrics mainly. I was into EDM but not like super exaggerated stuff, but I listened to several remixes. I wasn't really satisfied with the genre because there was a lot music that I didn't really like. So, it was more like finding a good song and sticking to the fee good ones.
Then I got a bit into hip hop, which is a genre that I really didn't like at first. In general, I still am of the same idea, but it became much more popular and so it was easier for me to approach it. I liked few artists and mainly Playboi Carti, not for the lyrics but for the musicality. Surely it's something particular in hip hop imo. I haven't heard much of other artists because they all sounded the same or it was too rap kind of thing and I didn't like that.
From a year (or maybe a couple) I am back on classical music and there's a lot to listen and to explore. I sometimes go back to some songs of past eras, but 90% of the time it's classical music. I love other artists too like Ichiko Aoba and Wet leg. Genres that never truly attracted me are rock, metal and similar ones.

What headphones do you have?
 
I've gone through a little bit of a journey in recent times:
I tried out wireless earbuds that worked on my old devices but only had half the charge they promised (2.5 hours out of 4). I bought some new wireless earbuds (JBL) which have that problem that one of the two is a lot quiter than the other. At least until some random point at which they get as loud as the others. Haven't figured out why. They are also not compatible with older devices of mine which is a bummer.
In general so far I'm not a huge fan of wireless earbuds. :(

I have some wired earbuds (JBL too) that actually work pretty great. I use them when I'm home on my laptop which is too old for newer Bluetooth standard. The wire is also enforced so it doesn't tangle up.

Lastly there's a somewhat newer Sony wireless headphone (over ear) which seem to be pretty great. But they also only support the newer standard so I only use them with my Switch and my phone (at home).

All in all: 3 pairs I currently own. There may be some other ones I forgot because I never use them, though.

What was your dream job as a kid?

I mean, the video game music part is still true. I'm not listening to J-Pop anymore. But that's mostly because I don't really listen to music as much as I used to. I still turn on the radio and listen to whatever they are playing (it's the "culture" channel so a mix of classical, modern and older stuff).
 
When I was a kid, I always wanted to be famous, namely from acting and/or singing. I wouldn't have called it a dream job though because, as a kid, I never saw acting or singing as a "job," even though it pretty much is. I never had dreams of going to work in a kitchen chopping meats and vegetables everyday for chump change. I'm not really sure what my chances are of me acting and singing are nowadays though, but I still do enjoy singing as a hobby. Seeing plays on Broadway made me interested in acting and the most I've done was acted in plays in my school theatre classes.

Do you pay attention to the news?
 
Nope, not since I left my home country! I still hear about important things of course but I don't specifically look at things. Being in countries where I can't understand the language perfectly certainly helps with the blissful ignorance of all the ways leaders around the world like to make things difficult for us all :D

What was the last sport you participated in?

There's always still a chance! Plenty of incredible actors didn't get into it until their later years. There's some good websites online that you can find casting calls and just go and try them out! Go as an extra and see if you enjoy being around the sets at all. Or if you're looking at theatre stuff, try doing a backstage role for a night and see if you like what you see. Then just go to auditions, build up your portfolio and stick with it! Do you upload any songs or something? That could also be helpful for auditioning for more musical roles too :D
 
Uuuuuuuuuhhhhh............ I guess the last time I did a 'sport' would be the time my dad hit me in the face with a fastball while we were 'playing catch'.
I was like 13 or 14 at the time, I never really liked to play sports at all. (much to his disappointment lol) I also had really bad luck whenever I did do some kind
of activity, like the time I was accidentally body slammed by a dude twice my size back in my old Boy Scout days... Those were 'fun'.

I wholeheartedly second this! I'd love to hear you sing or watch you act a part in a play sometime! Hell, if you ever traveled near my city, I'd crawl out of my goblin cave and come to support your performance!
