I'm VERY new to pkgo trading, so I have no idea what the 'worths' of different pokemon are, but I'd love to see what potential I'd have for a Xurkitree! I just chose the first few pokemon of mine that came to mind to add. This post feels a little silly because the only shiny that I have is a houndoom and I don't really have much else; I have plenty of generic pokemon and lots of random ones scattered about. I'm just suck in the USA and this guy's my favorite pokemon LOL. If anyone has any tips and pointers for trading like this, too, feel free to let me know!!

I'm turning 20 in august and I've been picking at my skin since I was 9. Face acne, bacne, and my cuticles have all been scraped to hell and back (I had an issue with picking at my soles when I was ~14, too, but I haven't done that in a while). I've struggled with really crazy anxiety since I was young, and my picking tends to be worse during periods when I'm more nervous. I have my therapy appointment in the morning, and throughout the entire week I've been thinking about things that I can talk about, and I've been pretty tense because of it. This isn't the WORST of my picking--I'd actually say that this is more mild--but you can definitely see which fingers are my favorites, lol. It's just such a pain in the ass to try and execute basic tasks when it feels like your fingers are screaming at you. I have a super bad habit of picking deep. There've been so many times where I can't use my fingers for activities because they're so sore. I'm so scared about being in more professional settings because of this, too. I don't want to make a bad impression in an interview because of my fingers. Ugh!!!!!!!!! I wish it was easier to stop

Meet Toastie! I have a feeling he'll be shorthaired and/or it's too early to tell, but I thought I'd shoot my shot here. Toast is around 3-4 months old now and I don't know what his parents look like, so I don't know what his outcome might be. Longhair? Shorthair? Medium? He's super cute regardless, though!! Cutest little member of the family!

These are pictures taken right after brushing. I'm 19 and I try to take pretty average care of my teeth. I floss and brush properly at a minimum of once a day. I've had past dental work done--those weird white spots/bumps on my teeth are the result of past work when I was ~7 for a reason I can't remember anymore. I have also had fillings in my molars at around 2023 for cavities that I had since 2020 due to extreme depression. However, my teeth only felt /worse/ after the fillings, and from the grey undertones in some of my molars, I don't think the fillings did anything. But, I went to a dentist appointment a month ago, and after x-rays, they said I didn't have any cavities. This guy was accused of medical malpractice shortly after, though, so I don't know if I should still take his word for it, LOL. My teeth always ache, particularly in my molars. It's like a throbbing pain in my gums that range in intensity through the day. They're also incredibly sensitive to temperature, texture, and sweets, but it ranges in intensity day by day like the regular pain. My teeth throughout all my life have always been sensitive (mainly my front teeth), but it's been even worse. It's gotten so bad to the point where I've genuinely contemplated wiggling the problem molars out with pliers or something. Despite flossing as accurately as I can, some small parts of my gums are prone to bleeding with being flossed. It happened at the dentist appoint that had X-rays. I don't know what to do. If this isn't a case of cavities, I'm at a loss. Is there any advice I should take? Should I book another visit?
