The totems are unlimited use but you must replace the potion every time they are used up! You can download the pack here! | |
SUPER SKINS There were several amazing skin submissions this week, 3,846 to be exact! One of our favorites was autumnistic's skin, shooting stars, which is actually an entry or csea's 20 Sub Contest! We love the detail of the star and moon reflection in the space helmet, and the lofty space boots! We also enjoyed Incandescence's "today a karen road raged at me" skin, which features a summery skin with a sunflower on it's overalls. The submission also contains a story about a road rage incident, but we won't spoil it for you. Head on over and read it for yourself! Last but not lease, we really enjoyed Yeowun's skin. We're not only huge fans of the color palette, but also love the cute pokemon face it features on the hoddie. Such an adorable skin! | shooting stars today a karen road raged at me |
