How I would rewrite Pokemon Journeys//Improve on it as well.
SO YEAH!!! I’m posting this cause I Love the Pokemon anime and I think Journeys could have done a bit better with its Storylines and stuff like that.
So for this post I’m gonna try to rewrite the Pokemon Journeys Anime. (But I need to explain a few rules first…)
1 - The Series will be like Journeys with a few differences.
It’s still a World traveling Series with Different Pokemon Regions and stuff like that, But for the first season alone. It will be centered around Galar for the Darkest day ARC (Which will set up the events in the future and stuff like that.)
Also! Project mew will be intertwined into the Bigger plot of this series and the characters who are in Project mew will get Backstory and more character moments so they are not left in the dust.
2 - Movie exclusive characters and Characters of the day from Before and during Journeys will appear in the Rewrite.
Like for example…
Doyle from that one BW episode! For the rewrite I could see him working with Looker and Emma as they investigate into the mysterious things going on at the Chairman Rose corporation in Galar.
Or Regina! She can be a semi-Temporary Traveling companion for Ash, Goh, Chloe and Gloria as they travel to the Isle of Armor for a Story Arc of some kind then she returns for the Galar League against Leon! (Quick note: The Masters 8 Tournament will still happen, it’s still being set up by Leon when he becomes the chairman of the League so I could see it happening around Gen 10 or 11.)
Also yes! There will be 4 Main characters like in the XYZ Anime with Serena, Bonnie and Clemont and Ash.
The Journeys Gang will be…
1 - Ash Ketchum: The Protagonist.
2 - Goh: Ash’s newest friend and wants to catch Mew themselves! (He will be part of the Project mew storyline.)
3 - Chloe: She is Gohs Childhood friend and is still figuring out what she wants to do with her life. (She will still have Eevee.)
4 - Gloria!: She is Hops Childhood friend and is still new to her Pokemon Journey so far!
3 - Also! The Rivals! Who are the Rivals of this rewrite?!
1 - Rinto: He is a Male Pokemon Trainer from Sinnoh but also has connections to Paldea.
2 - Bede: He is the Student/Apprentice of Chairman rose and is like His game counterpart and stuff like that.
3 - Marnie: She is Peirs younger sister and she wants to win the league so she can give her hometown the attention it deserves due to hard times and stuff like that.
4 - The other Coronation series Trainers that Ash has met (I don’t really care who I pick for the rewrite I just want to give them backstory or something.)
5 - Hop: He is basically his game counterpart and his game story will be explained in the rewrite. His Goal is to get out of his Brothers shadow and become the strongest trainer in the world!!!
6 - Victor: He is Gloria’s Older Brother and is currently on a Journey on his own. He will be one of the Coranation series participants that Ash fights.
—————————————————-
4 - The Episode structure.
There will be different kinds of episodes for the rewrite, Though these different kinds of episodes could mix with each other due to how they are written.
Type #1 - Region focused Episode: A Past character or Game character could appear or Ash could battle a Gym leader.
Type #2 - Coronation series Battle: Ash basically Battles someone like a Random trainer/Gym leader/Elite 4 member or Champion/Game character for the entire episode.
Type #3 - Filler episode: This Episode is usually an improved version of a Filler episode from Journeys…
Example: The 80th Episode of Journeys has The character Nito; He is a Pokemon Hunter and he gets arrested and stuff like that. But what if it turns out that he was hired by Chairman Rose?! Hm? He was hired so he could catch more pokemon for Chairman roses Experiments on Pokemon! SHOCKING RIGHT?! SO INTERESTING!!!
and when I mean “Experiments” I’m referring to the Dynamaxing experiments for the Darkest Day storyline so when we get to the Pokemon League storyline near the end of The Rewrite, He will release the Pokemon Eternatus and cause Chaos!
Though I do admit that I didn’t write any of this yet, So I’m still figuring out if I should use a different name for the 1st Arc instead of calling it “The Darkest day.” (It gets confusing.)
My Replacement idea is that when Chairman rose is testing one of his Pokemon experiments, It causes the Energy points around Galar to act up and stuff like that. (I got this one idea from Loumiose Trainer Zac’s Sword and shield rewrite on YouTube. CHECK IT OUT ITS PRETTY GOOD PLEASE!!!)
and that’s what I got so far for my rewrite.
The rewrite would basically be a mix of World hopping and the main story being centered around Galar.
Oh! I forgot to mention the Hisui and Gen 4 remakes!!!
For the Gen 4 remake episodes with Dawn; I would keep them but change the one where they go to an alternate universe with AU Ash and AU Dawn.
I would change that episode to where The Journeys Gang meets the characters from the AU Ash Movies (Movies 20/21 and 23? I forgot when movie 23 came out so I don’t know if it would fit or not.)
I would like to see Canon Ash meet Cross and Sorrel and Dawn meeting Verity from Movie 20.
Sorrel could also meet the XYZ characters and have a Angst filled moment with Clemont about his Dead Luxray or something like that.
and the Hisui special could be swapped with a mini Arc or just keep the specials in the style of a Netflix movie.
So yeah…These were my Journeys rewrite thoughts, You can Comment your thoughts or just like it or something idk.
Also have a great day and Keep being creative! And being yourself!
Nevermind just another quick note about Project mew!
Project mews Creator aka Professor Amarath would be hired by Chairman Rose so that He can do more research on Pokemon while outside of his Office space.
Chairman rose Wants to make Prof Amarath think that he is doing good with his Project when he really ain’t and is being Tricked!!!
Anyways I’m done and have a great day and keeping being creative and stuff like that.

#celebi#i debated about whether to make this one shiny or not. but i didn't. for the integrity of the blog#which means i can't talk about pmd here and instead i have to talk more about pokémon 4ever. although i feel i've said all there is to say#about that movie. which is just that i have basically the whole thing memorized and i watched it a lot as a kid. i dunno celebi fucking dies#uh spoiler alert for that like 20 year old movie but if you're on this blog i'm sure you've already seen it. and if you haven't then you#probably weren't going to see it anytime soon. so. here's celebi um#shoutouts to the time guy. that's. the end of the sentence Well i guess i could talk about psmd bc green celebi is in that#ugh. psmd will always be my favorite pmd game even though pmd sky is kinda objectively the best game ever created#the partner character just. aghargrargaraghrahgrghragh#okay i'm not gonna talk about this right now. take celebi

With the release of the Pokémon Home update, the first thing I did was
Traded a Scream Tail for an Iron Bundle because I wanted my own Robot Murder Penguin™
And freed Kiara from her Pokémon Home limbo, unable to return to Alola or pass on to the Switch ever since I transferred her from Bank to Home in 2020/21 during the mass exodus because of my 3DS being on life support.
Poor thing hasn't seen the sun since Ultra Moon.
Caught her by accident while running through Poni Plains on the way to the Battle Tree. Naturally I immediately texted my (at the time) best friend when it happened and had to explain what Shiny Pokémon are because she didn't know much about Pokémon in general.
#Pokémon#pokémon home#pokémon scarlet#iron bundle#pyroar#Of course she's named after Kiara from The Lion King 2 because I watched that movie 20 million times when I was 8#Actually I drew Lion King 2 fan art and fanfic comics in my fluffy pink diary at age 8#The second I saw Litleo in the pre release trailers I was like AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA#Welcome to Paldea

Just saw the one about Jessie having a mom in Team Rocket... how old is that organization?? Was there a big cheese before Giovanni??
(no idea if there is a canon answer, but do you have thoughts on this)
Yep! His mother Madame Boss (pictured on the right). She is the presumed founder of Team Rocket
Miyamoto is Jessie's mother (pictured on the left). She was Madame Boss's number one operative. They're both from The Birth of Mewtwo, a radio drama that was released with the first Pokémon movie and takes place 20 years prior to the events in the anime. Very much worth a listen~

It's been said pretty much for years now that they planned a series for Netflix, and the leaks confirmed it. Eight episodes were planned for a release this year. It's live-action. This isn't Concierge.
Misc. HZ leaks. (Info potentially subject to change)
Liko and Roy are 13 and 12 respectively. Still canon to me.
Dot initially wasn't planned. Quaxly would have gone to Liko or Roy.
Friede is 20s-ish while Orla is 18. (Finalized versions seem to be older, just given the previous flashback in Ep18 has a 4-6yr old Liko, and Orla already appeared to be an adult there)
Friede betrays the RVT and joins the Explorers, something about a missing brother? (Which has never been alluded to, so doubt.)
Original six Heroes were supposed to be Blastoise, Pachirisu, Rayquaza, Entei, Moltres, and Zeraora.
2yr timeskip after acquiring all 6 Heroes
Two Terapagos, the one from Laqua and the Area Zero one (The latter is deceased.)
Three year storyline intended, so perhaps ending in 2025? That said, Terastal Training arc wasn't originally intended so might go on for longer. According to the leaks, ZA was intended for this year, so they might have pushed back the anime a bit too.
Was originally intended to be a movie, with Ash returning for an SV series (with recurring characters like Leon and Goh), but that was scrapped and HZ became the full series instead.
Ash was intended to have a Capsakid, Klawf, and Fuecoco.
Still set in Ashime verse.
A new movie was planned too. Codename Bauer. Was set to be released in 2023, but might either be in development hell or be cancelled. New Pokemon named Aperon, with the main protagonist being a new character named Akari. It's set in modern-day Kanto and the featured Mythical Pokémon of the plot is Mew. The idea was that the film will touch modern society problems, like cyber bullying.
There was also sequel to Detective Pikachu called "The Great Detective Pikachu" set to be released this year. We don't know if the project is still ongoing or cancelled. I also don't know if this is like a proper image leak, or just something a fan threw together in response to the new information.
Another new anime, code name RELOAD.
This is an all-ages anime series co-produced with Twin Engine (TE), a planning and production company affiliated with Studio Colorido.
12 episodes over the course of a year, 21min each.
The 12 episodes will be split into 4 groups of 3 episodes each, with event screenings in Japanese theaters, and have a wide distribution across online streaming platforms.
Originally planned for release in 2023, current status unknown.

What was wrong with JN30?
I wasn’t really involved in the fandom back when the episode was released, so I’m not sure how everyone here reacted back then. But I often see people saying that it’s a terrible episode, and it makes me wonder just what was so bad about it.
There was lead up to the episode
The conflict didn’t just come out of nowhere, there was foreshadowing. Riolu called to Ash as an egg, and there are even some hints it might be the Lucario from movie 7 reincarnated. So, Ash has a very strong connection to Riolu, they both have a passion for battle and are eager to get stronger, and Riolu is still a baby and has a lot to learn. Put that together, and Ash is hyperfocused on Riolu.
The episode was also part of a theme the writers were exploring. The Pidove episode taught Chloe about jealousy and how to handle it when it comes up. But it was also there to introduce us to the concept before we watched Ash and Pikachu go through something similar. I think maybe some people are annoyed that Chloe is the one who figured out what was going on, but it makes sense it was her. In the Journeys trio, Ash instinctively understands Pokemon but misses stuff because he’s unobservant, Goh is observant but has to learn how to deduce what Pokémon are feeling, and Chloe is a mix of them. She is observant like Goh and has an instinctive understanding like Ash.
Ash and Pikachu’s bond
The episode was meant to explore what happens when Ash and Pikachu’s bad traits clash. Ash can forget to slow down and consider others feelings, and Pikachu can be stubborn and mischievous. They are extremely close, but isn’t it the people you’re closest with that you have the worst disagreements with? Pikachu is used to being Ash’s favorite, so of course it got upset when Riolu was getting special attention.
In the end, the episode strengthens their bond and they understand each other even better. One of the things Journeys explores in Ash’s character arc is him learning to slow down so he doesn’t overlook how people or Pokemon are feeling. I would have to do a rewatch to be sure, but I think this episode is a turning point for that part of his development.
The real problem
The real issue is that, in some fans eyes, Ash and Pikachu aren’t allowed to make mistakes anymore. They have so much history, have won so many battles, and been through so much together. Now, this far along in their journey, they have to be perfect. Ash can’t lose battles anymore, and off days can’t exist for him. Pikachu has to be the perfect big brother figure to all of Ash’s other Pokemon. Ash and Pikachu can’t have a fight, because it’ll ruin 20+ years of their history together.
Looking back, I think the reaction to this episode is one of the things that showed that Ash’s time was coming to an end. If fans get angry when there’s a character conflict, that doesn’t leave much room for the character to do anything.

Kaiju Week in Review (January 14-20, 2024)
Ultraman Blazar's finale aired on Friday. It was a solid capper to what's easily the best entry in the Ultra Series since I was an undergrad, full of heart and pyrotechnics. There were a few major loose ends—Captain Gento is better at keeping secrets than most hosts—which I'm hoping the movie, due in late February, will address. If you're looking for a place to start with the long-running franchise, it would be one of my first recommendations. Great effects, great cast, tons of new kaiju, and a blend of novelty (lots of focus on the tensions between the defense team and the larger monster-fighting organization; a host who's in charge of said defense team) and returning to form (Blazar yowls plenty but is an Ultra of few words; the power-ups and goofy weapons are kept to a minimum). And even if you don't want to commit to a whole show, episode 22, focusing on a hapless salesman of kaiju insurance, is a must-see for any fan of the genre. There seem to be no worlds left to conquer at Tsuburaya for lead director Kiyotaka Taguchi, so as I've been saying since around 2015: Toho, are you paying attention?
Godzilla Minus One/Minus Color, the regraded black and white version of Godzilla Minus One, is coming to North American theaters for one week starting January 26. Toho's yanking both versions from theaters after February 1—puzzling considering that the film is likely going to be nominated for the Best Visual Effects Oscar tomorrow. Takashi Yamazaki led a Godzilla delegation to the Academy's visual effects "bakeoff", in which voters watch highlights from the ten shortlisted films and their VFX teams explain their work. IndieWire reports that Yamazaki's presentation drew the most applause, describing Minus One as the "potential frontrunner." The Hollywood Reporter likes its chances too. Nominations will be announced starting at 8:30 AM EST. The Creator seems to be its biggest competition.
Godzilla Minus One also recently cleared $50 million at the U.S. box office, in the process passing the first Demon Slayer as the highest-grossing Japanese-language film ever released in the U.S. Some outlets are reporting that it's the highest-grossing Japanese film ever released here, which isn't accurate; the English-dubbed Pokémon: The First Movie made almost $86 million back in 1999. (And I think it's plausible that something like Rodan or Godzilla vs. Megalon would be the champ if you figured out how much they grossed and adjusted for inflation.)
Justice League vs. Godzilla vs. Kong #4 brought Godzilla and Tiamat to Atlantis, forcing Aquaman to release the Kraken to defend his city. Incredibly, this is the third Kraken associated with the Monsterverse, after Na Kika (called Kraken when it was introduced in the King of the Monsters novelization) and the main antagonist of the Skull Island cartoon. I'm guessing it's going to have a shorter lifespan than either of them though.
In other Godzilla comic news, IDW will be putting out another intriguing one-shot in May, titled Godzilla: Mechagodzilla 50th Anniversary. Past comics from the publisher have included multiple Mechagodzilla models, but this one seems to be going above and beyond. Rich Douek is writing; Andrew Lee Griffith is illustrating. The logline:
For 50 years, the King of the Monsters, Godzilla, has gone toe to toe with its robotic doppelgänger, Mechagodzilla! As an intrepid reporter profiles the history of Mechagodzilla and its creator before the launch of the newest model, he finds himself entangled in a much deeper conspiracy. A decades-spanning adventure celebrating the mechanical monster's milestone!
One of master kaiju illustrator Shinji Nishikawa's books will receive an English translation courtesy of Titan Books. Awkwardly titled Godzilla: The Encyclopedia of Godzilla, the Japanese edition included over 100 full-bodied illustrations of various Godzilla series kaiju and analyses of their designs (alongside plenty of Nishikawa's trademark chibis). I'm sold, suffice to say.
youtube
Ryo Momota, director of the short tokusatsu film Revive! Smile Rock Giant God, has put the whole thing on YouTube with English subtitles for your amusement. It posits that a real rock formation outside of Tamano City will come to life to help its citizens in their hour of need. Very low-budget.
Kaiju Brooklyn is a one-day con that began filling a longtime void for East Coast kaiju fans last year. Here's the first major piece of news about their June 1 event: they'll be screening The Return of Godzilla outdoors at day's end. Consider me highly tempted.
Kaiju United has a new, wide-ranging interview with Barry Goldberg, webmaster of the legendary Barry's Temple of Godzilla. That fan site was my first window into the wider world of Godzilla in the early 2000s, and it's only been updated a few times since, so I was pretty interested to read how its creator was doing. Don't get your hopes up for a revival: he's still a Godzilla fan (loved Minus One, Shin not so much), but has moved on to other things. Great insights from a Big Name Fan who stayed humble.

10.) Tag someone for no reason! Give them a scare!
11.) Tag someone you think is scary! Let them prove you wrong! Or, alternatively, prove you right…
12.) Tag someone you’d take with you to a deserted island if you were going to be abandoned and could only take one person! Why would you do that to them! Are you being mean?

Remember to send an ask to the person you reblog this from! Keep it going! :-]
//OOC: Not all of these are positive. Keep that in mind before reblogging!
//Do not send ooc anon hate. All of the “hater” questions are because this is an in-character ask meme from Harte and he’s a hater. Sometimes it’s fun to get petty with other people as long as it’s IN-CHARACTER. If you don’t want people sending you hater numbers then just ask them not to in the tags. I personally have not experienced ooc anon hate but apparently people have and I’d like that to Not Happen. Please. Be nice ooc. Be civil ooc. 👍 Thank you.

My Hero Academia is Officially Ending and I'm Fucking Coping 😭
So, it was officially announced early today, June 24th, 2024, by Shueshia and mangaka, Kohei Horikoshi, that My Hero Academia/Boku no Hero Academia will officially end in 5 chapters on Chapter 430. The last chapter will be released at the beginning of August after 10 years of publication in Weekly Shonen Jump magazine if all goes well.
I woke up to this news. I'm sitting here on my laptop typing this as a way of coping tbh. On the outside, I'm numb and stunned. On the inside, I'M SCREAMING, CRYING, THROWING UP, MOURNING LIKE I LOST A LOVED ONE WTF 😭
*sigh* But, this was going to happen eventually. It was only a matter of when. When Horikoshi said that we would have more epilogue to cover, I thought "Maybe he'll give us 10 more chapters!" Turns out it is 6-7 chapters instead... In Horikoshi's defense, 6-7 chapters are much longer than what most mangaka have given us for epilogues to their stories. I'd rather have him give us 5 more chapters of an epilogue than rush it in 1-2. Plus, if possible, we could potentially get 19-20 pages per chapter which might be just enough to wrap everything up. And since final chapters of manga tend to be longer than usual, we could get extra pages in the last chapter to finish everyone's arcs and the story properly.
Still, it's so wild to see a series I have loved for years and have such a strong attachment to end as I am following it. I have been a part of many fandoms before and have stuck around them for years (Pokémon, Supernatural, Doctor Who, Breaking Bad, and many more), but it's not often that I've been there there to see a series come to it's conclusion. Sometimes that can turn out well (Breaking Bad) and other times I've seen it end badly (Supernatural; only read about it and it was not great. I bounced after season 13? and I am so sorry to the fandom). My Hero Academia is one of the very few series I will see through to the end.
I'm really coping here, honestly. I've been a fan of My Hero Academia since 2018. I first heard about the series randomly through the internet, but I didn't fully introduce myself to it until I listened to a cover of The Day on YouTube (I forget the artist, I'm so sorry). I thought the song was so cool and that led to me listening to more covers of MHA OPs (Peace Sign is still GOATed btw). This eventually led me to the manga and the anime where I became truly immersed in the series. I started reading the manga around the Joint Training Arc (I think) which was definitely an interesting time to read the manga because the chapters where so short due to Horikoshi dealing with health and I think moving conflicts at the time. It was still an enjoyable arc and enough to keep me interested in reading from the beginning. I want to say I started the anime around season 3?, but I started at the beginning and worked my way up from there. "Shoto Todoroki: Origin" was the episode that finally solidified my love for the series and is still my favorite episode of the series.
To say that MHA has an important place in my heart is an understatement. (⚠️Warning: very quick mention of suicide) I was very sad and depressed in the latter half of 2018. My life didn't feel like it was going anywhere and I was close to giving up entirely. (⚠️ ). Finding and loving MHA during that time honestly might have saved my life. As strange as it sounds, it was one of the few things that brought me genuine happiness at the time. I had something to look forward to every week and it was thrilling. I still remember debating whether Deku or Shoto was my favorite character. Shoto took the top spot in my heart, but Deku is a very close second 🩵💚.
Seeing MHA end is heartbreaking, honestly. I'm watching something I truly love come to an end. We'll still have the anime, movies, and spin-off series to keep us busy for the next few years, but the manga that started it all is coming to a close. It feels so, so surreal. God, is this how the Haikyuu fandom felt when it’s manga ended? My hope is that this fandom can be kept alive long after the series is over. The MHA fandom DEFINITELY has it's flaws, but it also has a lot of good in it too. I have seen incredible art and fanfics come from this fandom. I have laughed and hyped up some of the best moments of MHA with people who love it too. I know that the fandom is collectively mourning its end and I know we'll all cry bittersweet tears when it ends. If anything, I am glad to see Kohei Horikoshi end his momentous story on his own terms. I hope it ends up being one of the best manga endings in recent Shonen Jump like how Haikyuu's was. I think Horikoshi can do it. Regardless of how it ends, My Hero Academia will be one of my favorite pieces of fiction. I am really glad to be here to celebrate it.

About the AU
The Imaginary Friends AU is a relatively simple “what if” scenario: what if Kieran had met Pecharunt when he was much younger, and the two became close friends?
Kieran met Pecharunt when he was around 6 or 7, when the Pokémon followed him home from Peachy’s after Kieran had tried to convince the shop owner and Carmine to let him buy the plush (that was actually a Pokémon).
The two became friends very quickly, however, Pecha was still wary of being too open about its existence, out of fear that Ogerpon would find them and finish the job she started so long ago. So, whenever Kieran tried to introduce Pecha to his family, the Pokémon hid in their shell and pretended to be a plushie once again.
This continues over the years, with the people around Kieran believing that Pecharunt is just an imaginary friend/plushie, and Kieran eventually giving in to the fact that they won’t believe him, and that Pecha is too shy to show themself to anyone else.
It’s a generally lighthearted AU with no real set story; just fun shenanigans with a young Kieran and his peach friend. ^^
Of course there’s a bit of angst; it’s me after all lol! Kieran feels like nobody takes him seriously because of him being a kid; it’s something he’s pretty insecure about.
Extra Info!
Pecharunt’s shell is fuzzy like an actual peach, and somewhat squishy! Hugging them feels like hugging a more firm plushie!
Most of the art and stuff I make for this AU is when Kieran is around 12
There’s an alt version of this AU a friend and I have made that’s a LOT more angsty and involves one of his characters meeting IM!Kieran; not sure if we’ll ever bring it to Tumblr though
