I just committed identity fraud! ...To myself!

Get this news I'm about to bring to yous: on Pixiv, my Ambipom monkeysona is SO alien and utterly different from
the normal race, a higher-staff member had tipped me in kind request by chatroom to CHANGE my pictures' tags due to "not being related to Pokemon".
I told him it IS a alternate world Ambipom and by default, in relation to the series. Then he suggesting me to tag by "oripoke".
Original Pokemon, in condensed meaning. In middle of this, he claimed to be a fellow fan and was only helping to keep confusion off searches.
Thus, we agreed... much to my displeasure of misunderstanding.
But, THAT wasn't kosher: how would one react if someone tells you your persona is fake? Living a LIE.
The passion you're been keeping affinity with for 10 years+? The bit of media that makes you a artist, pressing on?
Introspective ILLUSIONS~
SURE, originally I wasn't all tribal alien-ish and galactic, before.
Then I wanted to go for a much special sort of Pom. I even got one close guy jokingly tell me I'm no Ambipom like I got some facade.
Still, I felt offended to a degree, mon! Oh, that's just freakin' PRIME. :V

FA+

Well one can dream.
Also, how to pronounce "oripoke"? oripoKAY or just ori-poke? as in when you poke somebody lol
There's hardly any flavor catering to make them bite and it's a extremely alternated Ambipom, so it doesn't help matters.
For the tag name, it's pronounced ori-po-ke. Like Original Pocket Monster. I never thought what vision of artistic desires would be
completely UNAmbipom enough to make a person think it's on the lines of Fakemons and unofficial pokemon. :V
