[@demothiguillermo2059]

Rtgame is a girl confirmed

[@Aoenias]

Hearing people trying to pronounce Iono on the spot makes me realize that her name is "ion-O" and could probably be pronounced more like "iunno", as in "I dunno(don't know)", which is why her catch phrase is "Whosawhatsit, Iono!" like "Who is it? What is it? I don't know!" And then her electrical theming is because "ions" are atoms/molecules that have a non neutral electron charge and how Oxygen (O) ions are highly reactive and diffuse "positively", like a good streamer's positive attitude. Honestly one of the better performances by the naturalization and translation team.

[@ArcNine9Angel]

I appreciate that take on it! Nice to see positivity for once to balance out the negative.

[@IndustrialParrot2816]

Actually I think ions are something else but very close you might be thinking of rouge electrons

[@Aoenias]

​@@IndustrialParrot2816 An Oxygen Ion does have extra electrons (which makes it have a negative charge) but because of that they diffuse positively. It's also funny that just arbitrarily having more electrons makes you more negative, but attracts positivity. Having extra electrons could also kinda be the reasoning behind being an electric type.

[@shaneens1547]

@@ArcNine9Angel Haha funni molecule joke

[@Kozmic_CL]

I don't know about diffusion, but ions can be either positively or negatively charged, so I'd say the positive attitude part is a bit of a stretch. Everything else is spot on, though.
