I am seeing a lot of these “Top Contributor” and “Rising Fan” badges on Facebook. I say we bring back a few of the Pokémon themed badges in certain social media situations
Dynamo Badge: Awarded to the person who responds to and follows through on committing to a “can someone pick up/drop off at this time?” post
Earth Badge: Awarded to the person posting “If you need to reach me, do so on here, because my phone is currently 70% water”
Glacier Badge: Awarded to the person who either posts something unnecessarily lengthy or something where you click “See More” and just go “Yeah, no.” I just earned my hypocrite badge 😬😬😬
Storm Badge: Awarded to posts with the most typos. I mean, it’s social media not a Masters Thesis, but come on people. Was this post written on a roller coaster?
Volcano Badge: Awarded to the person who posted something in 2010, with a comment that became socially unacceptable in 2015, that got unearthed and got people outraged in 2020, because that is who that person is and who they always will be forever and ever. Amen
Marsh Badge: Awarded to both participants in those posts and comments that go something like “I think this” “Well, I think that.” “Ok, then post that on your page.” Because we can post our opinion, but we better not dare comment it.
Mineral Badge: Awarded to the “If you receive a friend request from me don’t accept it, because I got hacked. The individual who sent it is inorganic and not living” post
Plain Badge: Awarded to the person who “likes” their own posts
Boulder Badge: Awarded to the person who posts happy/motivational quotes that on our good/ok days are fine, but on your bad days harden heart like “Get out of here you ridiculous ray of sunshine.”
Cascade Badge: Awarded to the person who swears the most in their post. Cascade is a cleaning product, people who swear are said to have a “dirty” mouth, so yeah. I wanted to end on a real high note there. I know Pokémon ends with credits so here’s a list of Japanese celebrities:
Akira Kurosawa
Hayao Miyazaki
Ken Watanabe
