North London is Red
Yes I'm going to be talking about football again, but in addition to me talking about the North London Derby I'll also be talking a bit about pokem on as well. But don't worry there's a nice present in the spoiler below for anyone who gets past the football and pokemon stuff.
First the football, as I've mentioned before I'm an Arsenal fan (well Arsenal and Lyon) and as I've also probably mentioned before I'm sick of the British media's bias towards Spurs who haven't fucking won anything in the last decade and the North London Derby occured for the first time this season on Sunday (we're getting 3 this time around) and of course Arsenal won it 4-2 (should have only been 4-1 due to Son cheating) but what makes this win all the sweeter is the fact that Sky asked Paul Merson (who isn't an Arsenal fan, despite what everyone else says or believes) and Tim Sherwood (who's a fucking mug) for their combined 11s. Now Merson at least put Auba and Ozil in his but Sherwood (who's a fucking mug) didn't even put any Arsenal players in his and both chose Eric Dier over Lucas Torreira, hell Sherwood's "combined" 11 wasn't even Spurs' best 11. But in general the Spurs fans have gotten insanely arrogant over the past few years, banging on about a power shift, but it took one of their players cheating for them to go into half time with any form of lead, not to mention Dier being a massive bellend for shushing the home fans (this NLD was at the Emirates) for an equalising goal, not a winning goal just a fucking equaliser so obviously some of the Arsenal players took exception to this (mainly Lichtsteiner) causing a massive brawl afterwards there's the aforementioned bit of cheating when Son dived to get a penalty and is a good argument for the EPL needing VAR. But after the break second half FC came out to play with goals from Auba (who opened up scoring in the first half after Vertonghen's hand ball in the box allowed him to score a penalty) Lacazette and Torreira, the last of which has only endeared the Uruguayan to the fans even more after his celebration (which he got booked for) he's turning into the signing of the season. This NLD showed the Arsenal can perform against the so called top 6 (although it's really a top 5, since Spurs don't deserve to be considered as part of the top 6 they've only really been successful in the last few years and haven't actually won anything of note) and gien that Manure have been dogshit awful this season they have a chance to make sure no one doubts them again.
Also if anyone else needs to be persuaded of how good Torreira is jsut look at this gif:

As for pokemon, I've been consiering what needs to be taken from the Let's GO games and added into the next mainline games:
To keep:
- Following pokemon
- no random encounters
- no HMs
- pre battle cutscenes for certain pokemon (legendaries and the like.)
- master and coach trainers, I thought this addition made the game even more enjoyable
- repeatable gym battles or their equivalents
To drop:
- the pokemon go catching mechanic
- the overly cutesy look (still not a fan of the artstyle)
- expressionless protagonists, we know Game Freak can do it on the NPCs so do it with the player character model.

I honestly think that this is the best image I've taken in FO4 to date.
