I bet there's Pokemon therapists. Probably either a psychic type Pokemon or a trainer with psychic types to aid in communication. I bet they'd be very concerned to tell Ingo that his Elektross was "mourning his humanity"

Me in the corner nerfing the fuck out of psychic types

The way I usually like writing pokemon is by putting a whole lot more animal into them. I don't like writing pokemon that are basically on the same intellect level as people because then it just gets... Weird. This is especially true for psychic and ghost types. So when I write those typings they are SEVERELY nerfed.

Sure as shit none of them know the human language to communicate telepathically. They can become in tune with a person's feelings pretty closely but nothing close to mind reading.

And forgive me for nerfing human psychics because it just trivializes the story in my opinion. Basically I write human psychics with the same telepathy barriers. They can't just outright read minds. They can have clairvoyance, empathic abilities, etc but mind reading and telepathy are straight out. I don't like having psychics be the answer to every hard emotional problem.

i feel as if im going mad so im going to just put this out here. real quick. movieunleashers starters ramble.

i cant stop thinking about how mudkip broke down in that one scene in "Typomaniac," when Chespin called him mean. for a second he lets his mask slip a little bit and to me he just... acts his age. he starts crying and calls chespin mean back. maybe im just hyperfocusing on this one detail but mudkip is about 12 years old.

and that just makes me wonder what happened in this guys life that brought him to where he is now. and it makes it all the more tragic how his whole world revolves around chespin, but he is the one bringing him the most pain. and how young he was when he died.

there is a large theme of growing up in "Rare Candy." the characters ages are emphasized in that particular episode, and one of the main conflicts is fennekin wanting to evolve faster.

the thing about characters in these stories is that they're not allowed to just be kids, to have a childhood. so many bad things happen to them. like. mudkips whole, Everything. fennekin when she was famous in typomaniac, or dealing with her own insecurities/pressure from society about her relationship w chespin. and chespin always having to shoulder his friends problems & always somehow managing to stay positive despite everything.

why cant they just. play video games. eat ice cream or something. go to the movies

at the end of the day, i think both mudkip and fennekin are characters who grew up too fast. by distancing himself from them, chespin refused to follow in their footsteps and just wanted to stay a kid.

good for him.

something i really need to get off my chest even if i just post this privately is That i really dislike ‘caretakers’ in whump writing. or ‘whumper’ i feel like it makes a character (even if they’re just a hypothetical one) feel very 1 dimensional and it makes me so OKAY JUST HEAR ME OUT!!! whumpee i don’t mind much, it makes the prompt or what your talking about a little clearer. But it feels like it’s putting it into a box and making sort of roles which makes it feel less like a prompt and more like we’re in an omega verse fandom and i mean this really lovingly and affectionately and no hate to any of yall. I have a vast amount of characters and i write stories and books and I can say with out a shadow of a doubt, not ONE of them fall under ‘whumper’ or ‘caretaker’ because i develop them as their own individual character. Not even my antagonist are ‘whumpers’

So one of my main antagonists literally burns cigarettes on the MC and abuses the MC. Tries to kill her on her 18th birthday. Shes her mom, and the main character PHYSICALLY cannot leave that situation with out getting the authorities involved until she turns 18. Mom sounds like an ass, she beats ‘whumpee’ up! why would i NEVER call her a whumper? because she’s a whumpee by that logic. Her mom was extremely emotionally abusive, and half the time not fully there. Her shitty ass dad got murdered in front of her when she was just a kid. but Her mom isn’t a whumper either, because she too would be considered a whumpee. She was a world renowned flapper girl, everyone loved her. she LIVED for the fame and her face in newspapers. But behind the scenes she was actively ignoring her distant parents as they continued to try and marry her off. She was then forced into the marriage when she got pregnant with the guy (much so against her will which is why she killed him.) and ever since she’s been delusional and not fully there. It’s generational abuse.

more ramble under the cut + extra clarification on what I’m trying to say

okay but that’s just generational abuse right? There are other whumpers in the real world! Yeah i guess there’s sadists and serial killers, but like, there’s SOOOO much more guys.

I have a mini antagonist, he’s in highschool and he’s meant to be the toxic narcissistic ex of one of my characters. But he’s falling apart trying to get attention, he’s not fully aware of the damage he IS doing. Ass he may be but again behind the scenes he’s constantly fighting with his dad who refuses to do anything around the house and who is also transphobic (she’s bigender but i’ve been using he to make it less confusing right now) and now she has to take care of her little sister and act like a whole ass mom. As a sophomore. In high school. Not only that but her mom died, so she has to struggle with that. She’s just an annoying ass teenager, she doesn’t understand how to treat people or how she’s supposed to be handling what she’s dealing with. But getting attention and being liked at school? now that’s the shit. That’s like drugs for her. But to what lengths does she go to get that extra validation? He uses his boyfriend almost like an accessory. He’s not considerate of his feelings, and most likely doesn’t understand what a relationship is SUPPOSED to be.

Unless you’re making a sociopath character, which i LOVE a good sociopath character, you have to treat them like they also have humanity. Most of the time villains don’t just. Do shit to do it, they have some sort of background that lead up to this!!! And also even then with sociopaths they’re their own individual characters separate from the people they hurt!!! and also NONE of these are end all be alls and all characters must be developed this way!!!!

just my advice and stuff <3 i love all of you out there and i can understand why using certain roles and terms are the go to, and i’m not stopping you!!! i just really wanted to give my two cents so i can possibly help other writers!!!

All those small moments Tobi came up with like

I totally wondered myself when in concert what he did when he ran off the stage every time and look, it's all part of the movie! He planned it all along

He even makes fun of all the costume changes

Like when he's confused about the sudden Year Zero outfit and makes Eww when he sees he holds the cross UP lol

The way his parents seem to scare him about death only to scare us

How you barely notice all the times he throws the mic from one hand to another by the way the movie is edited UNLESS you give that special attention and see how it's suddenly in the other hand (I watched it twice okay)

That time when he's on the drum pedestal and we see him from the back as he looks over his shoulder to us

"When I first came here to be an entertainer ... well, that wasn't ME, but you know what I mean ..." Might be me but I love how he lets his own self shine throw the personas sometimes. He's so touching and caring beneath all that

Tress Biyan for fuck's sake

My utter confusion about the red demon windows during Square Hammer, what does that mean?? They were monochrome white the other events -

Remembering the striding away after the finale was the sexy teaser when the movie webpage was first announced only to learn he falls on his face next thing (his self irony is so charming)

i Need to take up embroidery now rIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@honorhearted liked for an Eloise's starter

"Of course women are not suited for leadership, men make sure that they can't learn anything of importance, disapprove of anything that may allow them to show some original ideas, fearing women's intellect, and then they dare accuse us of being too emotional!" Eloise had moved two steps higher to tower over the angry men, ignoring Benjamin's attempts to stop her, and the women around the men had gotten angrier and louder, but not enough so that her voice couldn't be heard: "After they spend their entire lives making sure this society is meant for men and men only, proving that they are the over-emotional cowards who would rather get rid of any competition before there can be one!" "What'd you just call us?" "Cowards! What are you going to do now, strike me and prove me right?" she challenged him angrily when he tried to come closer, "Go ahead, hit men and prove just how emotional and not suited for leadership you are! You certainly can't possibly use your words when you already know you are in the wrong!"

That did the trick of stopping him from hitting her - which was best for him, truly, she was poisoned enough by those men's interference that if he laid a finger on her he'd go home without a hair on his head. The women shrieked louder, starting to demand they'd go home and leave them be, supported by the men who had chosen to come to the rally to fight for women's right to have a voice. It was a great day.

formal apology post for disappearing & lurking most of the time as for the last weeks — life has gotten chaotic and unforgiving at times, so i'm trying my best to perservere and use my energy only for things that make me feel content to be alive. i am focusing on my uni work and life obligations at the moment, but i'm still around to write and will possibly pick up activity in a few weeks, when my exams are done. ♥

i appreciate the patience with me and i'm wishing everyone a good february!

hi, i just found this blog and was reading back on your current submas au. you say you dont like others giving ideas for the au, but unless i missed a post you didnt seem to make it clear any point before getting upset that you didnt like those types of messages or that you already had the story planned out. maybe you should make a post about this being an already written story your releasing bits at a time and not a wip au?

As I see it, that post is a version of that post that you mention. It wasn't an immediate issue, only cumulative because (at current and at time of that ask being sent) there was a larger volume of those kind of asks than there normally are when I start sharing an au that operates the way I'm operating this one: letting people ask questions about things that they are interested in learning about in the au rather than trying to tell a linear story.

So. As it stands, that answer stands as that post. I love questions about my aus. I just ask a bit of consideration on whether or not your ask comes off as simply throwing what-if scenarios at me without considering what I am at all doing with the au. It doesn't feel great.

I guess this post stands as a declaration of what Brothers' Starter is.

i really hope the next pokemas update adds some more paldea characters, we've barely got any in the game rn... i'd especially love to see the protags & arven.

I love playing Pokémon in a way that would absolutely kill anyone who knows a thing about the game. No I don’t know most weaknesses and strengths of typings or what I should be using. No I’m not building a well rounded team. No I don’t remember battle to battle what moves are effective against what Pokémon’s even if I just fought them and lord knows I don’t really understand their power or literally any stat my mons have. I am heavily brute forcing my way through this game with my team full of Sunflora fusions because this is Infinite Fusions and I can do that. Yes having everyone a grass type presents problems. No I don’t care! I will beef them up enough they can tank hits until I can destroy whoever I’m fighting and if all else fails I have potions and revives and everything I need on stock to keep going. I do not know what I’m doing but I’m having fucking fun with it!!!!
