Trying out a new style and playing around with color line art with this one.

So, I’m kind of expanding my modern day Caligari AU and one detail of this alternate universe is that Cesare is awake and conscious, but does sleepwalk whenever he does fall asleep. His guardians are Caligari (obviously) and Mathias (the young doctor in the film that helps Francis uncover Caligari’s nefarious plans, and I gave him that name bc why not).

Rather than stuff Cesare in a box, Caligari instead brings him to seasonal conventions (in person) to showcase his “psychic abilities” and how Cesare is living proof of mankind’s capabilities of expanding their mental fortitude and some other bullshit.

Caligari forces Cesare to dress more formally for these events and Cesare absolutely hates it. He has no say in the matter, unfortunately. These events lasts the entire day, seven days a week from 9 am to as late as 10. Does Cesare get a moment’s peace? No. Except whenever Caligari has to go somewhere where Cesare can’t follow. Usually he hangs back by their designated booth and lingers. He doesn’t venture out nor mingles with anyone. That is until a certain curious someone stumbles upon their booth…

Played around with the Lorelei and Will theory for this one, so here's my take on the theory. Considering this as both day five and six for this inktober piece.

General Pokémon Villain HC’s PT. 2

((Part 2 of the Pokémon villain headcanon saga. Characters are in no particular order. Also, content warning for a few entries. Also, forgive me for some spelling and grammatical errors.))

Lusamine🪼

Although her actions are abusive and controlling, it all stems from grief. Of course, it’s not an excuse for how Lusamine treated her children. Lillie and Gladion haven’t done anything to deserve this kind of treatment. As deplorable as her actions are, Lusamine convinced herself that she’s trying to do the right thing in order to bring her husband back. However, it became twisted and vile, morphing into obsession rather than a valiant effort. Lusamine has no idea of what she’s doing as her desperation and obsessive behavior cloud her good character. Whatever respectability she has accrued over the years goes out the window as she tries (and fails) to succeed in her personal mission.

Truthfully, Lusamine resents Ultra Beasts (UB for short). They took her husband away and are the sole reason why her obsession took root. Her children ran away because of UB’s and she got possessed by Nihilego, the toxins of which are still somewhat present in her system that couln’t be removed.

Speaking of Nihilego’s toxins, the doctors in Kanto (and some from Alola) were able to remove most of the poison from Lusamine’s body. However, a few areas have latched onto her system strongly, making removal impossible and could cause complications. Such areas include her head and arms, inhibiting mobility and memory. There are moments where the poison does affect her vision, so Lusamine cannot see quite as well whenever it occurs. Fainting spells happen often that doctors recommended Lusamine to be confined in a wheelchair for a few months until they can figure out how to completely remove the poison entirely.

Currently attending therapy. Aside from the possession she endured by the hand of Nihilego, Lusamine attends therapy to work out her own mental and emotional health. Going to therapy was actually Lillie’s suggestion.

Deep down, like really deep down, Lusamine loves her children. She does. However, trying to rebuild that love and connection that she destroyed by her own hand will take a long time. While Lillie is open to the possibility of reconciliation, Gladion is more hesitant.

Doesn’t really operate too much at the Aether Foundation. Most of the responsibility has fallen onto Wicke and Lusamine sort of just shadows here and there. She’s embarrassed about showing herself to her peers and usually does foundation work online inside her home. Her work gets looked after by Wicke, as an added precaution.

Whenever Lillie comes home from Kanto, she tries to spend time with Lusamine. While Lillie is open to having a relationship with her mother once again, it’s difficult as bad memories come flooding back. However, Lusamine encourages Lillie to talk about it and allows her to air out the painful feelings that were brought about during that time. Lusamine doesn’t say a word and just lets her daughter vent, because to her, she needs to be reminded of what she has done. When Lillie finishes, Lusamine reminds Lillie that she has every right to be angry and every right to not forgive her. Lusamine wants to be a good mother to her kids, but understands that it may not be possible given what she has done. All she can do is listen and validate their feelings and promise to be better.

Ghetsis👑

An unstable individual without a doubt. Can barely distinguish reality from his own warped twisted view.

Everyone’s just a pawn to him and it doesn’t matter who. The Seven Sages, his useless Grunts, and, of course, N are all parts in his little toolbox. He could easily convince others to do something or, God forbid, trust his word with a simple heart to heart. He’s a master at words and knows what strings to pluck.

Such a drama queen, emphasis on drama. Ghetsis literally cannot stand being criticized nor ignored. He surrounds himself with yes men, ie. The Seven Sages, and their unwavering approval towards him gives him the push to keep doing what he’s doing. Just like how a cult leader operates.

Ghetsis doesn’t get Pokémon. He understands they are fantastical beings, but he never understood them with a humane approach. He acquired his team from the Seven Sages, each one gifting Ghetsis their partner Pokémon to dedicate their loyalty to him. These Pokémon had no idea of the world of hurt and mistreatment that Ghetsis would soon bestow upon them. Ghetsis’ “training” wasn’t anything like Pokémon battling or sparing. He would force his team to undergo harsh experiments to push beyond their limitations to the point of life threatening. Hydreigon got the worst of it and actually retaliated against Ghetsis by viciously attacking him, causing near fatal injuries.

I want to theorize that Ghetsis’ lineage, the Harmonia name, may be linked to the Abyssal Ruins somehow. It’s a long stretch, but for some reason, I see Ghetsis having some strange connection to the sunken temple with its abundance of wealth and knowledge. The ruins might have been a palace or something akin to the Library of Alexandria, where Unovian rulers amassed a swath of power and influence and knowledge over the region. I feel like Ghetsis’ family tree may have something to do with it considering how the site seems to be full of unsolved mystery. And knowing how other NPCs talk about it and the items that the player can find, it just feels like something that can be traced back to Ghetsis as he’s someone who believes has a divine right.

Ghetsis feels phantom pain on his right eye all the time. It got taken out by Hydreigon and he can’t see quite as well. However, he’ll feel a throbbing sensation. However, he doesn’t feel any pain or discomfort on his right side at all. It’s just his right eye.

Has a dark sense of humor. A morbid sense of humor.

If there’s ANY sense of normalcy with this man, he’s an avid reader. He likes to engage with mythology and science, primarily related to technology and energy, as well as history books about Unova’s past. Anytime where he’s not plotting world domination, he’s got his nose in a book.

Despite being an adoptive father, Ghetsis has never formed a genuine connection with his children. Concordia and Anthea barely spent time with him, but whenever he would, he’d be soft and gentle. Of course, it didn’t stop him from brainwashing them into his cult and putting the responsibility of N’s well-being over their own, especially at a young age. He would always emphasize N’s importance as crucial and simultaneously make the girls believe that their existence is to serve N. As for N himself, well, we all know the story by now.

Lysandre🔥

Gonna be real honest here: this dude gave me a lot to think about, headcanon wise. It’s not so much the fact that he’s kind of intimidating to write about, but more on the fact that he’s kind of mid whenever the topic lands on him specifically. Lysandre happens to be both complicated yet interesting, so it gave me something to munch on.

Lysandre oozes with confidence. He takes pride in his work and public image. He can handle stress pretty well and knows exactly how to deal with issues that crop up in his daily life, which I can only hope to aspire to be one day.

His relationship with Sycamore is near and dear to him. Lysandre shares mutual respect with Sycamore and keeps in touch to get any recent news or highlights on the professor’s research. These two go way back and their interactions are pleasant and low key. However, as they gotten busier, their meet-ups dwindled. Still, Sycamore remains as Lysandre’s closest friend and someone whom Lysandre can turn towards whenever he’s upset about something.

Connecting with the prior point, knowing Lysandre’s villainous goals and the overall destructive effect it would entail, he decided on a selective few who he wanted to spare. Sycamore happened to be person number one.

People perceive Lysandre differently and it all depends on who you talk to. Some say that he’s quite generous as a philanthropist while others say he’s elusive and hard to read. Others make assumptions based on superficial observations such as his wealth and popularity. Honestly, it’s never consistent.

Despite what others think, Lysandre falls into the introvert category. He doesn’t like to be in public for long periods of time, but bears through it because of his job.

Coffee lover. I mean, he has his own café so it’s pretty much canon?

I’ll just say it here: Malva is a simp for this man. She has special connections with Lysandre and as a result she’s able to get the full scoop on his secretive activity behind the public’s eye. Lysandre absolutely knows that Malva’s got a thing for him (I mean, she’s got good taste) and he definitely does use that to his advantage. He can convince her to manipulate the media, as well as divert any attention away from him while he conducts his Team Flare work. Malva doesn’t question his authority and she’s pretty much a ride or die. Nobody expected Kalos’s top reporter to be part of this nefarious group, which I suppose could be Lysandre’s doing as a way of showing thanks by protecting her reputation.

Him wanting to wipe the world clean from all of its impurities brewed inside of him for a long time. Initially, he really wanted to make people’s lives better with his humanitarian efforts but became tired and frustrated each time people complained that he wasn’t doing enough. Like, this man tried endlessly to provide a solution. The results continued to yield nothing and it sprouted the seeds of resentment and hate within Lysandre to pursue the nuclear option. To an extent, I see where Lysandre comes from. It sucks when people keeps pressuring you to do more, to give more of yourself to people, yet get little in return. However, it doesn’t negate the fact that Lysandre was willing to commit mass murder on people because they kept bitching at him for minor reasons. You can’t fault the man for being pissed, but still: Genocide ain’t it.

General N Headcanons

By my estimate, I think that N would probably be in his early 20’s. Not quite young (well, still young) but not old. He gets mistaken for a teenager, which happens quite often.

Being adopted and raised by Ghetsis has been a nightmare to say the least. N’s not going to pretend that growing up with this man, whom influenced and shaped his world’s perspective, has been all sunshine and rainbows. Being exposed to Pokémon who have been mistreated has traumatized N, and whatever “kindness” that Ghetsis has expressed usually consisted of empty praises and promises that were always one-sided and manipulative.

Continuing with N and Ghetsis’s relationship, these two were nearly inseparable. Ghetsis had to have N close by so as to not let others get close to him. Creepy as that sounds, Ghetsis didn’t want anyone else influencing N, nor insert their own philosophy onto him. Giving him ideas. Opinions that would shake his worldview. N, at the time, didn’t seem to mind. After all, N had no reason to question Ghetsis, he had no inclination that this man would backstab him one day. N, as a child, viewed these moments with Ghetsis as father-son time. Ghetsis couldn’t care less about the boy; N happened to be another cog, an important cog, in Ghetsis’s master plans.

Aside from Ghetsis “educating” N, the other Seven Sages stepped in as N’s teachers. They were his tutors and taught him math, science, history and the like.

Concordia and Anthea have always been truly kind and supportive of N. Both girls are not blood related but are orphans who were adopted by Ghetsis. Both were found in the forests of Unova: Concordia in Pinwheel and Anthea in Lostlorn. They don’t possess the kind of ability that N has, but their nurturing nature has been a source of positivity and comfort for N while growing up isolated from the world.

When N got older and set out on his journey, he didn’t expect the massive culture shock of being out in the real world to be so overwhelming. Like, initially, he wanted to turn back. However, despite being out of place, N pressed on and hoped that wherever he went, this journey will be worth it in the end.

N’s an avid reader and has absorbed information about Unova from books and other materials that contained information about the various cities, their foundation, and other factoids. While he has never ventured out of the castle to explore such places, N has got a pretty good idea on what each city looks like.

He has a fascination with mythology and likes to adventure in old ruins that are in Unova. Occasionally spends more time in the Relic Castle or at Dragonspiral Tower to uncover more secrets. Would like to visit other regions someday to see their ancient sites.

After Team Plasma disbanded, N kind of wandered. He didn’t have anywhere to go and N didn’t mind. He liked traveling and being able to meet other Pokémon along the way. Still, he might occasionally pay Alder a visit.

N talking fast has people speculating, but really, it’s all natural. Honestly, N doesn’t like to talk for long periods of time and tries to keep conversations short. Oftentimes, he speaks fast due to him wanting to get to the point quickly. However, he’ll stumble over his words or may get incoherent whenever he speaks too quickly. This doesn’t come from anxiety or some speech disorder.

Despite being good at technology, N cannot figure out social media for the life of him.

Whenever N isn’t wearing his hat, he gets mistaken for a girl. He doesn’t mind though. His hair has grown quite long and he’ll put it up in a ponytail if gets hot or wet, or in a braid for fun.

Keeps in touch with Hilda and Hilbert sometimes. They don’t often see each other, but X-Transciever calls are commonplace for these three to talk and catch up. In person, it’s usually in Nimbasa.

This might be odd, but I’ve always imagined N being really into cottage core. I mean, if he wanted to, he could set up a cute little cottage in the woods and tend to the wild Pokémon, just being a humble, cozy fellow straight out of a Disney movie. He has the vibe and I can see N singing with a Pidove perched on his finger like he’s Snow White.

N doesn’t know who his birth parents are or where he came from initially. He just knows that he spent a majority of his young childhood in the company of Pokémon.

N doesn’t like to be hugged by people (Pokémon only). He’ll give a handshake or a high-five, but hugs are a bit much. He never received a hug from another human being and physical contact makes N a little uneasy.

N wishes that he could go back in time and prevent his past self from encountering Ghetsis. It’s a sad thought that plagues his mind with hypothetical scenarios playing out. What would’ve changed? Would Ghetsis have found someone else to use? How would he have functioned living with other people? How would his truths and ideals be challenged? These questions keep N up at night.

Reshiram/Zekrom care a great deal about N. They act like a surrogate parent for him and are protective of his well-being.

For something more light-hearted, N likes to do arts-n-crafts and other activities that involve fiddling with objects. Making bracelets with string, beads, and other accessories are his favorite, but he likes to do origami and other paper crafts. It’s extremely relaxing for him.
