Pokémaniacal is the ongoing story of one lunatic's love-hate relationship with the Pokémon games and universe.  Using my eclectic knowledge of history, literature and science, I critique designs and plots, analyse characters, speculate about how unseen parts of the Pokémon world might work, discuss issues of game design and balance, answer my readers' burning questions, and - from time to time - just make stuff up.

My loyal minions can vote on blog business - mostly I anticipate this being "which Pokémon should I review next?" but I'll also consult you on anything else that comes up.  I will also follow a Twitter account of your choice (presumably yours, but maybe you don't have one, in which case frankly you have my respect) from @pokemaniacal.

Acolytes get higher billing on the acknowledgements page, and also receive access to "behind-the-scenes" "content" about my writing process, or assorted musings that don't make it to the actual blog.

Councillor
$12 or more per month ∙ 0 patrons

Members of the Dark Council each receive a unique title on the acknowledgements page (which I recommend you use in as many real-life situations as possible to assert your authority and status) and, once a month, can nominate and vote on a topic for me to investigate (Pokémon-related or otherwise) for a longer article.  Each of my Pokémon reviews or articles will end with a shout-out to a single, randomly selected Councillor.

Patreon will cover the cost of hosting my site on Wordpress!  I'm no longer actively losing money by doing this!  Praise be to the Patrons!
