Our first evolved Grace, and looks like my guess that the next tier would look more like young adult Grace seems accurate so far, though I'm curious what the first tier version would have looked like, considering the pokemon equivalent is a cocoon.

Ah, a simple featureless battle background. How nostalgic!

Frankly I think I like the battle background more than the starburst. However, I have a tradition to uphold! So, yay for starburst background in panel one!

Is BeeGrace a Worker or a Queen?

I have no idea, everyone just calls her Honey.

Ah, yes. The Graces are TOO kind. Or are just naïve.

Obviously, despite being named "Bee", it has normal pokemon sexuality instead of bee one.

I expect that next strip, they are going to fight and call it fun.

I kinda expect BeeGrace wouldn't "play" in the usually rough-housing way that Gracemander and Ratta-Grace did, just for the fact that BeeGrace is bigger than Gracemander.

Maybe they'll play "Go Fish" instead.

Yes and no. If that slapping was "tackle" or "stratch", BeeGrace would never learn it. We can expect "Poison Sting", "Twineedle" or possibly "Fury Attack". Gracemander meanwhile should use her fire breath ("ember") as it will be supereffective.

As I said on discord, actually fighting would be "meh" for me, I like the idea that Dan might be subverting the entire game, so where one would expect a fight, it'd be something else.

Basically, if the Graces are playing, then they'll play, I just think it'd be amusing if BeeGrace would want to play fairly in some way if there's a large perceived level difference.

And yeah bugs are weak to fire, but it could be a matter of Gracemander needing to use it more than once anyway and it might be possible for BeeGrace to still win if she lands a strong attack.

He wants to make fun of the game. I think it would be hard to avoid fighting. But I might be surprised ...

Of course - if BeeGrace is on bigger level, she can win despite the type disadvantage.
