#I miss the mega evolutions

[snailfen]

ik im a big johto/unova lover (THAT goes without saying) and feel more nostalgia for unova rather than kalos (i grew up on the B&W anime before ever getting pokemon x) but im actually really glad theyre making legends z-a rather than a johto/unova remake or legends title.

legends z-a is coming out on its own, unlike legends arceus, which means gamefreak can put most of their focus on that

they arent trying to release it within a year. i hope they keep this up, because if we ever DO get those aforementioned titles i NEED them to be good. i NEED them to stay in the oven a lot longer

[stunfiskz]

i forgot just how cunty shiny mega gardevoir is

[thisgirliscatastrophic]

I think Blackwargreymon should've become Taichi's second partner

[ghost-biird]

Love pokemon so much, sure wish it was good

[fluff-e-boy]

yeahhhhhh the gummy

[steampoweredace]

Pokémon Z????

Emmet with a Mega Chandelure?

It’s been a LOOONG time since I did a fan made mega evolution! (I think the last one I did was a Ho-Oh when I was 10) So here’s my vision of Chandelure’s Mega Evolution (though I’m not sure if Chandelure’ll get a mega, and if so, I definitely think I missed the mark on this one lmao)

Anyways! Now thinking about it, I think Emmet could be in Legends Z-A for two other reasons now (please don’t get your hopes up too much tho!)

1- Trains appear to be a somewhat a major part of the storyline in Legends Z-A, why else would the Pokémon company post this image in their storyline slides otherwise? (Pretty sure someone mentioned this before already)

I think this is a slightly different station than the Lumiose Subway station, but seems to be a major start to the story…

2- I wouldn’t necessarily count this as a major reference, but I kinda thought the rivals looked pretty close to twins (even though seems more apparent they’re counterparts of the character). But odd enough, their official 2D art relationship seems oddly familiar…

Both even have a right-handed vs left-handed similar character! (Even though seems no matter what your rival will be right-handed through gameplay). I could be delving too deep in this last one, but just something I noticed 😅

So if Emmet is in the game, I really hope we can get a special pissed-off line from him if we decide to use a chandelure! XD

[sincerely-sofie]

See any of your favorite fairies in this crowd?

I tried to draw as many fairy-type pokemon as fast as possible on a single page! I forgot Granbull and some Mega Evolutions in my list of missed pokemon, but drawing 54 out of 69 in about an hour with nothing but a pen and a prayer is something I'm pretty proud of. That's a solid C+ in my book!

Thoughts on wurmple??

Might as well answer this while also doing the TCG ranking for the Wurmple family because I've had four seperate requests for them (and only one of them was anon, so it's not like it was even one guy spamming anon)

Anyway Wurmple is a really cute design and I honestly think it's my favourite of any of the early route bugs. Also one of the first shinies I ever caught! Managed to hold on to Purmple the Wurmple all the way from my old Emerald version, I still have it.

Not as big a fan of its evolutions, I feel like they missed the mark hard on the coccoon forms, some of the most underdesigned mons they ever made. I like Beautifly and especially Dustox, but I've never used either in a playthrough, since RSE give you so many good options off the bat and they're kinda. Incredibly weak.

Not expecting megas or anything but I hope GameFreak some extra love at some point.

Anyway cards! I'm gonna do 15 since I'm covering 5 entire Pokemon here.

Maxie Infodump #1 - Little known character details from official media

I promised to post some of my maxie infodumps and headcannons, and I think I'll start it off with something simple. His official character bio that was hosted originally on the first release of ORAS (this will be ORAS Maxie focused)

here is a transcript for easy reading: "Maxie is the leader of Team Magma, the team seeking a world ideal for humanity. He pays attention to even the smallest of details, and is quite sensitive in some regards. He has a habit of describing situations in numerical terms. He possesses a cool-headed outlook, thinking that some sacrifices cannot be avoided if he is to achieve his goals." Okay, so first, after looking at the original japanese version of this page,

小さいことまで細かく気にする、神経質なところがあり、さまざまなことを数字を交えてあらわすのが口癖。 目的を果たすためなら、犠牲が出ても仕方ないと考える冷徹な思想の持ち主でもある。 The one word in here I wanted to be sure of was 'sensitive' since it can have many meanings, and the original japanese gives us some possibilities with:

Personally I think (being) highly strung is the most likely option here, but either way its an interesting character trait. And we all know he certainly builds up frustration and tension and explodes a bit like a volcano. Even if he does manage to correct himself afterwards.

~ ANYWAYS ~

Now that we have the bio, let's break it down a little and look at some fun examples of it in action! Maxie has a habit of describing situations in numerical terms. This typically comes out more when he is nervous or stressed. Here are some examples: Ill just take ORAS as an example here since this is already getting pretty long... In ORAS after fighting him at mt chimney, he lets you know in a specific numerical way, how much he fell behind:

And then again, when you battle with him and lose in the Battle Resort where he just has to let you know the situation in numerical terms by giving you the exact lose chance according to his own calculations of course:

"So the great Maxie has fallen, even when battling alongside your team... I shall commit this curious phenomenon to memory. It had less than a 1 percent probability of occurring, you know."

this culminates in a really interesting interaction between him and courtney after the delta episode. While It's pretty clear that Maxie cares for his team and especially his admins, he definitely struggles when faced with his crying admin, and being unsure of what to say, he settles with a numerical quantifier again.

He assesses the situation, and decides to comment on how MUCH courtney is crying. His "paying attention to even the smallest details" trait also ties into this habit of his, and is probably why he jumps to conclusions a little too early because of small things he's noticed. Accusing Tabitha of wanting his spot as leader, just because he disagreed with him is one of those situations.

Pokemon Masters EX has a lot of new scenes with Maxie, and I would love to talk all day about them, but I'll just pick out one here, and that's from the "A pasio Spectacle" event. In this event, Maxie overhears team break members simply say the word 'glasses' and instantly jumps to the conclusion that not only did they want to talk to him, but that they noticed his "magnificent mega glasses" and would like to hear a lecture on how they were scientifically made.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZmmaf9bhD8&t=144s here's a link to watch it, its worth it :D He certainly picks up on small details, but tends to miss the bigger picture sometimes, which is fun because I believe archie tends to do the opposite. Perhaps his mega glasses are actually designed to reflect this, because they work like horse blinders, and keep maxie looking straight ahead (trust me, I've made a pair of these, and you cannot see someone standing to your immediate side). Looking straight ahead is also relevant to his life goal, of ensuring the bright future of humanity, and as he says: "propel humanity to greater heights of progress and evolution." And that concludes my infodump regarding this one little bio that is no longer available without the wayback machine, and I just wanted to share it with any other Maxie fans out there :D Next I think I might tackle the bigger topic of how Archie and Maxie have so many fun contrasts in personality and more. and then maaayyybe I'll feel comfortable enough sharing my headcannons and theories. But only if people want more lol, I am not good at writing big posts :>

StS x Pokemon AU brainstorming stuff

Now I'll have to publicly share some flow of thoughts rambles, I've been accumulating for an year now.

Bless @ectogusher for listening to my rambles, and @doodlingwren for busting my door open to finally share what I got.

Excuse me as I talk in my notes as if these things were like a guide/romhack shit

All under read more bc it gets long c:

Here's the main skeleton of this whole deal-

Sanctuary = Its own region. No new fakemons, but it's a sizeable piece of land that has gathered up a wide variety of various species found across the globe. This worldwide thing also influences the type of trainers and people from all over the world going there. If we were to touch on the subject of game mechanics: There would be most of them (Mega evolutions, terastalise, Dynamax even Paradox pokemon forms) further showing how mysterious and mythical this region is.

PC - Seiya / Shoko Rivals - Seiya -> The other bronze boys / Shoko ->The other saintias

With Ikki being the Silver-esque type of rival, meanwhile Shiryu/Hyoga/Shun all follow the same line of friendly rival archetype. I still haven't thought that far on the Shoko route.

Other prominent NPCs:

Professor Shion: Former gym leader, he was once offered the champion title but refused it. Claiming that his passion was in research and studies, rather than the battlefield. Due to stepping down from battles, his friendship/relationship with Dohko has strained over time. Shion is the one who brought Mu to Sanctuary down the line.

Schoolkid Kiki: Catching Tutorial NPC. He can be usually found at the Pokemon School in Mu's city. He will inherit Mu's mantle down the line. The pokemon he uses in the tutorial is a Noibat;

League Chairwoman Saori Kido - With Julien Solo and Hades coming in as other seemingly "investors" on the project

Gym leaders: Most of these guys' aces aren't fully evolved, bc they chose to keep them like that. Yadda yadda friendship boosting their favorites.

Mu: Sinnoh - Dragon - Dragonair

Aldebaran: Hoenn - Ground - Rhydon

Saga/Kanon: Alola - Water - Gyarados (Saga)/Kingdra (Kanon)

Deathmask: Kalos - Dark - Murkrow

Aiolia: Sanctuary (native) - Electric - Electabuzz

Shaka: Kanto - Psychic - Alakazam

Dohko: Johto - Fighting - Mienshao

Milo: Unova - Bug - Volcarona

Elite fours:

Aiolos: Sanctuary - Fire - Charizard

Shura: Galar - Steel - Metagross

Camus: Sinnoh - Ice - ? (Either Froslass or Glaceon)

Aphrodite: Paldea - Poison - Roserade

Champion - ??? (the plot twist is that: the PC wouldn't fight the 3rd gym leader, bc Saga was pretending to be the champion. When he really wasn't chosen or appointed to that position)

Evil organisations: They definetely do exist, and they are obviously tied to the aforementioned Julien and Hades figures. But I still haven't thought that far.

Worldbuilding notes:

Muvians are similar to draconids (introduced in ORAS), a small tribe that originates from Sinnoh and has some deep connections and bonds to dragon types. Which means, any muvian = dragon type specialist or in the very least owns one. Muvians are also meant to have a foot in aura sensitivity (see characters like Lucario, Riley, etc.);

Sanctuary's League has a rampant corruption problem, as seen by what I mentioned about Saga. The two evil organisations are basically being pitched against one another, as smokescreen for the real problem. Their current champ is this sort of "elusive" figure. There hasn't been a proper champion in a long time. And yet, according to paperwork and the system, it states that the role is currently filled by someone. Anyone that isn't tied to Saga's schemes is left in the shadows, even those that allegedly should be the closest to him (Aiolos for SURE has no clue of what's going on. He's probably hiding or declared missing in action during the events, and only shows up when the time comes to challenge the E4).

There's a small timeline:

ND folks (a good few years into the past) -> Classic folks -> Omega folks (+20 years into the future)

In ND's setting we see how odd and hapharzadly the League was instated in the region. Which sets up the perfect grounds for Saga to exploit down the line;

Shion and Dohko are recently turned gym leader here. Mu comes onto the picture a good few years after ND's events; In a way, since Tenma would be the PC here and Alone his rival. It could be the Red vs Blue type of ordeal.

In Omega we'd see how the League is trying to remedy its reputation & amend for Saga's schemes, with an entirely new set of gym leaders and League members. + Former league members can still be found and fought in the post game, Silver/Gold style.

Individual notes:

Mu - Obligatory pokemon Aldemu food

Mu used to own a Gible and Alde once owned a Trapinch, at some point they traded pokemon. So now, Alde has a Garchomp in his personal team and Mu has a Flygon;

Mu's battle team against young trainers has a Swablu, which is used as a messenger to carry mail exchanges between him and Alde;

Mu LOVES pokemon dolls and has a huge collection of it. In the post-game: PC can find Mu and Alde on a date at the region's big mall, with them looking at a shop's display window. Mu gets mad at PC for ruining his date, but would give out his pokegear number;

Aldebaran -

Aldebaran gym's city is also where the pokemon day-care can be found. He may not run it, but he often helps out the elderly couple currently in charge of it;

In the post-game: After adding Mu's re-match call number. Alde can ba found on the route between his and Mu's towns, he was on his way to take a meal for him, and he also shares with PC that they bought the doll in the end

Saga/Kanon -

PC doesn't really get to fight for the 3rd gym badge. Rather, it's simply handed out by Kanon, who approaches them to talk about how the leader hasn't been seen in so long;

Saga's "fall from grace" comes from a humiliating match against Aiolos, originally fighting for the E4 member promotion which he lost. Despite the clear type advantage;

It's left implied that these two were meant to be gym leaders, the matches would have been double battles.

Deathmask -

DM gym's city houses a Game corner (Casino) and a contest hall. First sighting of an E4 member is Aphrodite, who introduces PC to them;

DM is a sore loser AND has no qualms with cheating against his challengers, if it means he gets to maintain his "streak". In the battle against PC he would use an overleveled Crawdaunt;

In the post-game: PC will get a hint from Shaka's radio talkshow mentioning DM's whereabouts, in the city's underground game corner;

DM's strength is everything philosophy = DM's entire personal team consists of very strong dark types with some form of 4x weakness;

DM is well in kahoots with Saga's schemes;

Aiolia - TBA I haven't thought anything for him c':

Shaka -

Shaka gym's city is meant to be the largest and the most advanced one (Saffron and Goldenrod cities style), it has the region's largest shop for expensive and important items. It also has a radio tower, which broadcasts various programs (professor talk, loterry ticket, poke flute, etc), Shaka hosts a talk show where he commentates on PC's progress, all while actively putting down/poking fun at his defeated colleagues. Under specific time slots, he will have a guest join him, which will be an exchange between the various league's members. But the most important one is where he will be joined by the region's "champion";

Shaka is a fan-favorite across several trainers in the region, with many NPCs commentating how much they love tuning in to hear him talk & so on;

Shaka is also well known for his psychci prowess (Sabrina style);

Shaka is also deeply involved in Saga's schemes;

Dohko -

Dohko gym's city also houses the pokéathlon. With Dohko going undefeated in all the challenges, until PC comes along;

Post-game: to get Dohko's number for rematches. PC has to visit Shion after obtaining a certain number of species then, take a mail key item to Dohko. And THEN they get Dohko's number. it's a love letter, an invitation for some tea at noon

Milo - TBA I haven't thought anything for him c':

And "unfortunately", that's all I got x)

I suppose this is a lot better than trying to find all my notes scattered around all over the place. Hope it makes sense or that in the very least, it's fun to read through.

RN I focused on the classic folks bc it's the one I've been working and thinking of for the longest time.

[burningcheese-merchant]

screw the setting, legends ZA could be set entirely in a white padded cell in an asylum for all I care, but holy fucking shit. those battles. look. NAUSEATING. gamefreak, buddy, can we try not to re-invent the fucking wheel every few years or so? you have been shoving new cheap battle mechanics down our throats every new generation, and now I gotta jog circles around my rival's tepig so I can make sure my totodile doesn't miss his water gun? WHAT!?!? 😨

I was interested for 5 seconds and then reality clocked me in the nose and landed me in the ER lol. You're right, the battles look irritating as fuck. I gotta run all around the damn place for my pokémon to dodge? Why can't they just keep the old dodge mechanic where they'll do it on their own, but randomly and not often? What was wrong with that? And what was that about different moves having different ranges??? So I have to take THAT shit into account, too? So much extra hassle for no reason. "Hurr durr it's like the anime now" fuck that I don't give a fuck about the anime. I never did. The games are not the fucking anime. This shit is fucking annoying as fuck

Also, am I the only one who's not happy that they seem to be doing away with turn-based battles? That is literally the foundation of a Pokémon battle. I understand wanting to do something new, this franchise NEEDS to do that shit's gotten stale, but not like this. Change too much and you'll lose your identity. What else will they take away? Completing a Pokédex? Oh God if they don't have a National Dex in this game I swear...

The only mechanic I'm happy to see is Mega Evolution. That's still the coolest gimmick so far, outside of regional variants (I also like Z-moves and Terrastalizing is an interesting concept. I don't care about Dynamaxing, you literally just make Pokémon extra large). But the trailer made it look like it'll be on a short timer instead of lasting the whole battle like in XY, so I guess they're gonna ruin that, too

✨Here comes the Administrator and Miss Pauling - Pokemon [Mystery Dungeon] Edition✨

[A sort of continuation of my TF2 x PMD drawing]

Gonna go over what pokemon I had in mind for these two, and why I ended up choosing Galarian Articuno for the Administrator, and Mawile for Miss Pauling :]

For the Administrator, I first made a list of pokemon that could be a nice choice for her (mostly, it was snake pokemon like Arbok, Seviper, and Serperior), but then my thoughts went to legendaries. Before I thought about G. Articuno, I was going to draw her as a Walking Wake (Suicune from the past). And then I saw G. Articuno, and I went for that one 'cause of 1. Their moveset fit her more, and 2. G. Articuno's overall appearance just screams the Administrator to me. Btw, if you're wondering how tf she gets the vest on, G. Articuno has such strong psychic power that it can fly without using it's wings. She would have no problem putting on a piece of fabric with just her psychic powers :'>

For Miss Pauling, it was a tough choice between three options I had dwindled down to: Liepard, [shiny] Alolan Ninetales, and Mawile. I was going to draw her as an A. Ninetales for a while, but after looking through all three of these pokemon's movesets, abilities, pokedex entries, and their classification, I ended up choosing Mawile instead. Why? They're the deceiver pokemon :) Also, I just love giving pokemon (that has a mega-evolution) a mega-stone as part of their accessories <3

[inprogresspokemon]

What do you think of the upcoming pokemon game(Pokemon Legends Z)?

I'm excited for it! The trailer makes me think this game is leaning more to the future and/or more recent past, so it'll be interesting to see how new Pokemon evolutions and forms are handled.

I thought Legends: Arceus was a really cool and innovative take on a classic Pokemon game, and I hope Legends: Z-A follows suit and continues to improve things. It's been revealed via Nintendo's twitter account that the game will take place entirely in Lumiose City, so I'm hoping that the city is well-fleshed out and expanded in the new game. I also wonder how catching Pokemon will work in a game entirely set in a city, so I'm expecting big parks, pockets of nature, or maybe some Pokemon running wild in the streets.

I'm also really excited for Mega Evolutions to come back and the expectation for some new Megas! They were my favorite Generational gimmick and it's exciting to see them again.

The trailer didn't show much, but what do you guys think?

(For those who missed the on today's Pokemon Presents, you can see the Pokemon Legends: Z-A announcement trailer on the Pokemon website, here.)

[mlarayoukai]

I missed mega evolution sooo more

[cari-ad]

I've already faced conflict due to my beliefs regarding pokémon training, so allow me to explain myself in this post.

Pokémon training is immoral.

Strengthening pokémon is a terrible idea that needs to be stopped immediately.

Pokémon are strong enough as is. They do not need to get stronger.

Gym leaders, professors, trainers, champions, etc. will do most anything to discover the power of pokémon.

Examples are Professor Sycamore and his discoveries of mega evolution (which is immoral to use in of itself) and Professor Kukui's research on Z crystals.

Pokémon do not need accelerants to become stronger. They are far too strong and need to be stopped before they decide to overthrow humans.

---

There are already so many examples of humans losing their lives and being the victims of violence from pokémon. Some pokémon I'd like to prioritise the annihilation or captivation of are those I deem most dangerous to humans (especially children).

I'll list my examples (of which there are many).

Non-Legendary Examples.

Banette was previously a child's toy that was abandoned. It haunts dark alleyways, actively seeking the child who disowned it to enact revenge. It “generates energy for laying strong curses by sticking pins into its own body.” Its mouth is zipped up to keep all that cursed energy from escaping. That pokémon actively targets children to hurt them.

Another pokémon who actively targets children - Driftloon. Drifloon’s body is stuffed with the souls of the humans and Pokémon it is taking to the afterlife, even earning it the nickname “Signpost for Wandering Souls.” It usually targets children, tugging at their hands to try to drag them to the afterlife. Children who mistake this Pokémon for a balloon and hold its hand have been known to go missing and never be seen again.

When Froslass finds humans or Pokémon it likes, it freezes them and takes them to its den, where they become decorations. These things actually target humans.

Gengar poses as your shadow, then curses you and murders you. “Should you feel yourself attacked by a sudden chill, it is evidence of an approaching Gengar. There is no escaping it. Give up.” Delightful.

Or what about Gourgeist?? it chokes its prey while singing because it’s so overjoyed with the suffering inflicted on its victims.

Mimikyu. For one, no one knows what it looks like - its true form is so terrifying that anyone unfortunate enough to even catch a glimpse has met a swift death.

I think I've proven my point enough, but here's a list of pokémon who are also very dangerous that I can think of as I write this (though there are definitely more.)

Scyther.

Drowzee/Hypno.

Houndoom.

Tyranitar.

Kangaskhan.

Legendary Examples.

Mewtwo. Mewtwo holds the most hatred in its heart. It started a literal war. What's terrifying is that Mewtwo is still out there. Mewtwo has tried to kill humans previously, and is very capable of doing it.

Groudon/Kyogre. Both of them can cause cataclysmic chaos to the world (as we've seen). Devastating floods as well as drought could lead to the pain and suffering of humans and other pokémon. And as we've seen in the past, when and if humans acquire the red/blue orbs, their power is easily manipulated and can cause the end of humanity.

Giratina. “It was banished for its violence. It silently gazed upon the old world from the Distortion World.” Banished for violence is already terrifying enough. But if Giratina wanted to, it has the power to cause immense destruction.

Yveltal. When this legendary Pokémon’s wings and tail feathers spread wide and red, it absorbs the life force of living creatures surrounding it. And when its life comes to an end, it absorbs the life energy of every living thing and turns into a cocoon, resurrecting itself to eventually end all life again.

Darkrai. If you come into contact with this pokémon, you'll be met with unending nightmares that only stop with interference from Cresselia (which is incredibly difficult and rare to have happen).

Ultra Beasts.

Nihilego is the best example I can think of. Nihilego's most distinctive feature is its parasitic capability. When Nihilego latches on to a host's head, it awakens the host's own capabilities and boosts them to an extreme extent in order to protect itself.

It injects the host with a neurotoxin, this neurotoxin of Nihilego's is incredibly stimulating and inspires feelings of extreme excitement and a lack of inhibition in its host. Anything or anyone that Nihilego latches on to will have its skills forcibly activated to their fullest extent and will then act as it “naturally desires” to. Its venom turns their negative emotions into happiness and pleasure. It's also said that Nihilego mostly feed on those who feel intense worry or anxiety.

It sounds somewhat good initially, but it's not safe or good whatsoever. It makes the host act against their own will and lose control, it is also incredibly traumatising to the victim, who is often already insanely stressed and traumatised. The toxins also remain within the victim's body long after Nihilego leaves, leaving them sick for an unspecified amount of time (President Lusamine’s experience is incredibly interesting, I recommend looking into it).

Guzzlord is essentially a black hole. It'll eat and eat without stopping, never feeling fulfilled. These monsters can eat entire mountains, castles, skyscrapers, etc.

Buzzwole. The extent of its strength is unknown. Its entire body is covered with bulging muscles filled with red liquid that is said to be the blood it has drained from its victims. The full force of a punch powered by its muscles is able to pulverize a truck with a single punch. Its proboscis is said to be harder than diamonds, which it uses to violently and furiously stab and eliminate its victims.

Kartana. It was observed furiously cutting down a gigantic steel tower with one stroke of its blade, without any reason or provocation. Every edge of its body is fatally sharp, making it able to cut almost everything to shreds. An attack from this UB would result in being cut fatally.

Celesteela's most distinctive feature is its gas it stores within its arms. It acts destructive, burning down a forest by expelling its highly flammable gas from its two arms, for unknown reasons, without any provocation. It is stated that this fatally dangerous flammable gas could burn and melt anything.

Conclusion?

Pokémon are unsafe.

Maybe not all of them, but it's not worth the risk.

I am not an evil or sadistic person by any means. I'm not like any evil team leader, nor do I align with them whatsoever.

I believe this for the victims, for the parents who have lost their children to these dangerous beasts.

I cannot believe that people keep and strengthen pokémon for leagues and such for entertainment and fun, is it really worth the lives ruined?

I beg the people who read this to at least think about it.

The existence of evil teams should be evidence enough that pokémon training is inherently evil and is doing bad for the world.

Thank you so much for reading, I hope you have a wonderful day. Stay safe.
