Earl Grey-Sesame Duskull Tea-ramisu

I will be honest in that while I absolutely adore the Hoenn region, the Duskull line wasn’t something that I would say I particularly cared for. Of the various Ghost-types in Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire, I was more partial towards Sableye or Shedinja because of how unique each of them were. With Duskull, they are…

So instead, I opted for an entremet instead. The flavor combination of…
