Pie (Japanese: パイ) is a mod from the Bulbagarden forums who came here mostly to assist in stopping vandalism and other nuisances, and has since become a regular contributor. She has especially proved herself useful in doing things no one else wants to do and making articles pretty. She is notorious for babbling, enjoys speaking in third person, is an egomaniac and gets extremely bored from time to time. All of these traits are likely reflected in this user profile.
Pie has an unhealthy addiction to user tags.
Pie is a Style Editor and is currently the top Bulbapedia contributor, besides BulbaBot. It is her goal to trump Bulbabot, a difficult but theoretically possible goal.
In general
Offline
Pie's real name is Hilary (ヒラリ), and it is highly advised that you do not add an extra L to her name. She is a 18 year old Capricorn (♑) Earth Dragon (戊辰) from Rhode Island who is currently living in Boston. She is a quarter Italian, a quarter Russian, an eighth German, three sixteenths English, three sixteenths Irish, and possibly a negligible amount Native American. There is speculation that her great-grandmother was the infamous Grand Duchess Anastasia, since her home was none other than Yekaterinburg and she fled from it to China after the execution of the Romanov family during the Russian Revolution. However, despite this interesting connection to history, it is very likely that Pie has absolutely no blood connection to the Romanov family.
She is currently in her Freshman year at Simmons College. She is planning on double-majoring in Computer Science and Graphic Design. She fills most of her free time with video games, creative work on her computer and sleeping.
Personality
Pie alternates between being a self-worshipping egomaniac and a self-loathing emo kid. She spends most of her time as an egomaniac, however. She is an overly ambitious workaholic and often bites off way more than she can chew. At her best, she is respectful, understanding, creative, a jack-of-all-trades and a skilled leader and motivator. At her worst, she is stubborn, short-tempered, lazy, disorganized, arrogant and irrational. She has a notably masculine nature and has no problem with crossdressing, both of which have led some people to question her sexuality; however, Pie is much more interested in men than women, and is annoyed when others openly stereotype her in this manner.
Random trivia
- If Pie had been born a boy, her name would have been Larry.
- Her last name means Trojan. Go ahead and make fun of it - she does whenever she can.
- Her favorite color is forest green.
- Her lucky number is 21. She believes this is because 21 is the multiple of two traditionally lucky numbers, 3 and 7.
- She suffers from multiple stress-related problems, minor vision problems, weight problems, unpredictable paranoia and a small case of allergies.
- She is an Agnostic, believing that there could easily be or not be a God, and she's not about to make any assumptions on what the truth of the matter is. That's about as far as her religious view extends.
- Her political view is that she hates politics.
- When she was very young, Pie actually didn't like music at all unless it was something you could sing along to. However, hearing the song "Once in a Lifetime" by the Talking Heads completely changed that; soon, Pie grew to love a very large amount of music. A few of her favorite songs include "Ants Marching" by Dave Matthews Band, "Tonight, Tonight" by The Smashing Pumpkins, and "Amnesia" by Chumbawamba.
- For many years now, she has been composing music using the program Melody Assistant. She has nearly three hundred .mus files on her computer, the vast majority of which are her original work. However, only a very, very small fraction of these are complete songs worth listening to.
- Her favorite dish is fettuchini alfredo with chicken and broccoli. She's generally a very picky eater, having problems with seafood, onions, peppers, spinach by itself, raw tomatos, and many other things. She's trying to acquire new tastes, however, and expand her currently limited palette.
- She's not into sports very much, but she is definitely a Boston Red Sox fan. Go Sox!
Pokémon
History within the fandom
Pie's first encounter with Pokémon was way back in the beginning, when a friend of hers saw an episode of the anime and recommended it to her sister, who in turn recommended it to Pie. So, Pie began watching the anime and fell in love with it. She then begged her family for a copy of Pokémon Red, and, after months of suffering with merely watching her sister play Pokémon Blue, got her wish.
Pie first appeared in the online Pokémon fandom on a little fan fiction message board on AOL which few people know even existed. She wrote several bad fanfics that she usually doesn't talk about seriously, though she will occasionally joke about them, particularly one focused on Meowth with a bit of corny RocketShipping. Pie doesn't remember exactly when she left, although when she did the message board was active but scarcely saw any Pokémon fan fiction.
Besides this, Pie had no notable presence in the online Pokémon fandom until her arrival at Bulbagarden forums. She was referred there by Blackjack Gabbiani, and was only partially active for her first year there. She became drawn in again when an issue involving Ledian_X and LJ icons arose and she played a primary role in sorting it out. She was granted modship of the Multimedia forum for this.
Bulbacast
A notable highlight in Pie's modship at Bulbagarden forums has been her involvement in Bulbagarden's Pokémon podcast project, aptly named the Bulbacast. She is considered a regular member of the Bulbacast team, and is regarded by some to be the most popular. She has a fanboy following because of the Bulbacast, a few of which have proposed to her on the #pocketmonsters and #bulbagarden IRC Channels. However, she claims to not participate in the Bulbacast for the ego-padding but rather because she thinks it's a lot of fun.
She tried and failed to organize a Bulbacast Radio Drama, but hopes to try again with better results in the near future.
Website
Pie is the creator and co-manager of Pokémon Creations, a website focused on Pokémon fanwork. It was conceptualized in early December 2004, and made into a Deviant Art club in February 2005. However, this was highly unsuccessful and was abandoned in July 2005. Pie was too stubborn to give up on her idea completely, and thus, on January 23, 2006, Pokémon Creations was released.
Immediately following, Pie needed to make some changes to it but failed to find consistant time to do such, due to school, stress, and other fun things. For months, it was not mentioned or updated.
However, on July 6, 2006, she updated it again, with a promise that she'll be able to keep on top of it now.
SOVA
Pie has become an unofficial figurehead for the Save Our Voice Actors campaign after creating the SOVA Website. She insists on calling it Save Our Voice Actors since she does not like the acronym accompanied with its alternate name, Save The Dub. She avidly supports the original voice actors, particularly Eric Stuart, and she claims that she will not watch Season 9 of the Pokémon anime if Brock is voiced by anyone but Eric Stuart. To show her support for the original voice actors, she has folded 1000 cranes out of sticky notes for her wish that they remain the voice actors of the series.
Her heavy involvement in the controversy has caused her to both gain considerable popularity with some of her fellow fans and lose a comparable amount of popularity with others. On a personal level, it has made Pie consider becoming a voice actor herself.
Trivia
Bulbapedia
Favorite articles
Some articles which Pie contributed to and takes pride in include:
Pet peeves
- RTFM!
- If you're not sure, bring it up on the talk page.
- Not every list on the Bulbapedia needs to be a table.
- Not all information has to be in lists, tables, or charts.
- Keep your navigation templates small. We don't need a table of contents to the entire Bulbapedia at the bottom of every article.
- There's a reason we encourage use of pastels: Pastels don't make eyes bleed.
- The "Origin" and "Name origin" section of the species articles are highly developed and have more speculative BS than any other part of Bulbapedia. They are also the least useful. Please, if you want to help out, add something it really needs.
- Alt+0233. If you can't memorize that, that's what the character palette is for. You have no excuse.
Shipping
Pie accepts and may even support the following shippings:
Pie has problems with the following shippings:
ClothesStealingShipping
Pie is more obsessed with Brock than pretty much everyone. She is the official Brockoholic of Bulbagarden. Because of this, there are several people who think that there should be a ship betweeen the two. However, little do these people know that Pie x Brock already has a name, and it is ClothesStealingShipping.
The name, despite sounding dirty, originates from the fact that the event which ultimately led to her fan-worship of Brock was her unwittingly dressing in an outfit with a remarkable similarity to his. Since then, she has taken hundreds of screenshots of him, made fanart and fanfiction for him including a little with mature content, created an original character to ship him with, roleplayed him as a character, and even attempted to cosplay as him, failing only due to a lack of quality hairgel. She is also a fan of his voice actor, Eric Stuart, and owns two Eric Stuart Band CDs; however, she is not nearly as obsessive a fan of his work as she is of Brock.
It is currently under debate whether or not Pie's obsession is great enough that she should be seeking therapy.
Game statistics
These statistics mostly reflect the data from Pie's Generation III and Generation IV games, for Pie has had her data corrupted and lost for her Red cartridge, Yellow cartridge, and recently her Gold cartridge as well.
