OOC Post- Important Notice

//Hey everyone, I'm sure you've noticed my inactivity on here, and there is a reason for it.

//I've been avoiding this, and I really hate to say it but, I've lost inspo for my Pokemon irl/rp blogs. Yes, all of them.

//My interests and hyperfixation kinda snapped my neck towards another fandom, and I just haven't had inspiration or musings for RPing right now.

//So, that being said. I'm gonna place my blogs on hiatus. I won't delete them because, who knows, maybe they'll come back, but for now, I'm not having fun anymore keeping up with my muses. I want this to be fun, but I can't force myself to RP either.

//I still adore these characters, and I still love pokemon, but as of now, I'm focusing on other things.

//Another update to my life though: I'll be graduating from Pharm Tech school hopefully by the end of spring! So I'll have to pour my focus into that.

// Feel free to continue being friends with my muses, you don't have to pretend they're gone or act like they disappeared. If you're a mutual, and you wanna do anything with my muses on your blog, feel free to dm me and I can probably do a quick thing for you. Nothing extensive though, apologies.

//Thank you very much for understanding, and I'm sorry for any inconveniences. This community has been absolute delight, and I'll always remember how you welcomed me with open arms, even when it was just my OC Nox and none of these other guys.

//For now, take care of everyone. If you wanna follow me on my main or my art blog please do! @galactic-mermaid and @novastarrart (Fair warning, I have Garten of Banban brainrot, but you can block the tags of course) I will also be reblogging this to all my rp blogs so apologies if you follow multiple of them.

//Bye for now <3 Love ya /plat

What happened?

WHO DID YOU LOSE TO???

I’ve never lost so horribly in my entire battling career.

[ghostly-groundskeeper]

Someone just asked me why I was named after the region and I had to do a double take cuz- Unova.... Nova....

I may have made a mistake in naming myself /lh

number 40 for the ask game?

40. Are there any habits your oc has picked up from people around them? Do they know where they’re from? Does your oc try to stop themselves from doing it?

So uhhh being both autistic and having ADHD, I do this... A LOT. I tend to pick up on euphemisms from other people, like speech quirks and shit. I honestly don't remember where I've picked up every habit, but it's usually from people I'm closer with.

I don't even know I'm doing them half the time, so it's hard to stop.

[ghostly-groundskeeper]

How superstitious your oc? Do they end up following them ‘just in case’? Or are superstitions incredibly important to your oc? What are some that they believe? What about the ones they don’t?

I meeeean, I work at a graveyard and do tend to see ghosts from time-to-time (pokemon and human), but I don't think I'm THAT superstitious.

The other day you spilled salt in the break room, and threw some over your left shoulder RIGHT INTO MY EYES.

IT'S BAD LUCK OKAY? Also I said I was sorry...

40 OC Development Questions - Part 2

My previous 40 question ask game has been picking up notes again, and you know what? I love making up these questions so much that I made more. Because why not.

Have some uncommon questions to help with developing your original characters! Feel free to send in some asks with some numbers–pick an oc, or I’ll pick randomly~

How does your character sleep? Peacefully, fitfully? What position do they sleep in? What is their typical bedding like?

Does your oc have dreams or nightmares? What are they like? Is there a recurring one?

How easy to annoy is your oc? Do they have common pet-peeves or are they stoic in response to everything? What is their reaction if the source doesn’t stop?

How does your oc view housework? Do they absolutely hate it? Do they enjoy having their surroundings neat and tidy or do they not notice?

Your oc has to make something for an art exhibition. What would they make? How terrible is it? Would they enjoy making it?

What is your oc’s vocabulary like? Does it match the way they talk? How would you describe their speech?

How would you describe your oc’s voice? Do they have an accent? Do you have any voice claims for them?

Is your oc more likely to follow instructions exactly, throw them out and figure it out on their own, or make it all up? What are the results like?

Is your oc afraid of touch or do they actively seek it out? Is there a reason for this? What are the exceptions?

How is your oc about medical care? Do they avoid any form of healthcare that they can, do they seek it out over every little scrape? Do they treat their injuries/illness all by themselves?

How competitive is your oc? Is every little task something that they can win, or are they just in competitions for the fun of it? Is there anyone they’re most competitive with?

How skilled at lying is your oc? How frequently do they lie? For what reason? What situations would be the exception?

What is your oc’s immune system like? Are they invincible to illness, or are they compromised completely from the slightest of dirt?

Does your oc do anything “just for the aesthetic”? Or are they completely practical in everything?

If you had to choose a single object to act as a symbol for your oc, what would it be? Why?

If your oc could only eat one thing for the rest of their life (while miraculously not suffering from malnutrition), what would it be? Does this match their favourite food?

How prepared is your oc? Ready for the worst no matter what, or completely lost in every situation? Would they have a medkit when it was needed? Would they have an umbrella if it rains?

How charitable is your oc? Or are they more stingy with their resources and money?

If someone was describing your oc to someone who had never met them, what distinguishing features would they mention? How would one identify your oc in a crowd?

Does your oc have any pleasure that embarrasses them so they keep it secret? Or are they open about all the things they enjoy?

What is your oc’s stamina like? Would they be able to run a marathon, or not run at all? What about walking/another physical activity? How are they with exercise in general?

How long can your oc stay focused on one task before they get bored? Do they constantly have to switch things up or do they hyperfocus? What sort of things is it the opposite for?

What is the most annoying sound to your oc? What’s the most pleasant? Is there any reason?

What smells bring back specific memories to your oc? What are those memories like?

How jumpy or easily spooked is your oc? Do they have a fight or flight reflex to being startled, or are they never startled at all?

How polite is your oc? Do they do everything with the utmost courtesy, or do they completely refuse to say please and thank you?

How flexible is your oc? Can they touch their toes or do they have trouble just sitting down because of how stiff they are?

What is your oc’s typical walking like? Do they speed-walk everywhere, do they take quick short steps or long paces? On their tiptoe, the sides or heels of their feet? How loud are their footsteps?

If your oc was in a video game, what would their idle animation be? (When the player stays still for too long, the animation that plays.)

What topics does your oc know the most about? Are these obvious or would these be surprising to others?

What time of day is your oc most awake? What about most tired? Do they get up at the same time every morning without need of an alarm, or is their sleep schedule all over the place?

What five ingredients would you throw into a cauldron to make a potion based on your oc? How would you cook/mix them? What would the potion do?

Describe your oc’s favourite environment. Urban or rural? Wild or controlled? What’s the climate like?

What would someone blackmail your oc with? Would they be successful in getting what they wanted?

How easily does your oc get attached to things? Does everything have a sentimental value to them, or do they see nothing as more valuable than its practical use? What about with people/animals?

How stubborn is your oc? Are they easily convinced of the opposite opinion, do they not agree but let it happen anyways? Or do they cause conflicts with their inability to budge in their decisions?

How much has your oc traveled? Why is this? Would they like to travel more? Or are they perfectly fine with staying home?

What signs tell that your oc is nervous? Do they fidget, is it in their expression or the way they say things? Or are they very skilled at hiding it?

How superstitious your oc? Do they end up following them ‘just in case’? Or are superstitions incredibly important to your oc? What are some that they believe? What about the ones they don’t?

Are there any habits your oc has picked up from people around them? Do they know where they’re from? Does your oc try to stop themselves from doing it?

Well I'm not a scientist, but I think it has to do with the shape of our spinal columns and pelvic structure?

On the other hand, humans can't walk on all four limbs, because its bad for our backs, but we can crawl on our hands and knees though. -Although I guess, it's not the same...

I keep trying to stand on two legs like a human, but it's super hard to do it.

How do humans do it?

This is Tritonia the Shiny Dodrio. She loves screaming at people she loves, so if she screams at you, it just means that she loves you 💚

[ghostly-groundskeeper]

Sounds like something a rock-licker would say...

🎨 Tyrantrum

A lot of fossil Pokémon make me immediately think of how the Nacrene City Museum smells... Or really how any library or museum would smell. Like old books... And ✨Knowledge✨

I also kinda imagine how like... Licking a rock would taste. I know that's not very original because, duh, Rock type Pokémon. But I ALWAYS think about the gritty dirty rock flavor.

Not.

Not like I'm extremely familiar with rock taste-

[ghostly-groundskeeper]

You lickin' rocks, Robbie? 🤨🤨🤨
