Shelly x male Team Magma s/o

You may be wondering how two members of opposing teams that absolutely despise one another fell in love.

Well, it’s a long story.

Team Aqua, who are dedicated to their leader’s goal of expanding the sea.

Team Magma, whose ambition is to expand the land mass.

Due to contrasting goals, these teams are bitter enemies with one another, leading to many conflicts between the two.

Shelly and s/o first met during one of these many confrontations between their two teams and engaged battle with each other.

Despite being an Admin while s/o is a mere grunt, Shelly was easily defeated by him, leaving her both flabbergasted and a little impressed, not that she would ever admit it.

“H-how is this possible?! I shouldn’t have lost to a lowly Magma grunt like you!”

“I told you not to underestimate me Aqua Admin. Let your defeat show you that Team Magma is strongest.”

S/o smirks victoriously, making Shelly in leer at him in anger before Team Aqua begrudgingly retreats.

Impressed by his victory over the Aqua Admin, Team Magma’s leader Maxie promotes s/o to Admin.

Since that day, Shelly and s/o formed a rivalry with each other, with Shelly swearing that she’ll crush him in battle the next time they meet.

Unfortunately for her, s/o goes undefeated.

After losing to her enemy for what seems like the millionth time, Shelly falls to her knees and punches the ground in frustration.

“Why?! Why can’t I defeat you?! I don’t deserve to be a part of Team Aqua if I can’t even defeat a Magma lowlife like you!”

Watching her break down, s/o can’t help but feel bad.

“Hey. If it means anything, you are a pretty good trainer, and it’s because of you that I train my pokémon so hard. I always look forward to our battles…Shelly.”

Greatly surprised by his words, Shelly gets up and offers s/o a small smile before turning away with a huff.

“This does not make us friends…but thank you for saying that, I…appreciate it.”

At that moment, the two enemies would begin growing closer, even if they didn’t realize it.

Now whenever their teams would enter another skirmish, s/o and Shelly would of course battle, but not necessarily as enemies.

As time passed, s/o and Shelly grew even fonder of one another, leading to a spark of romantic attraction beginning to emerge, which they both quickly notice.

“No. I can’t be falling in love with her. She’s the enemy! What would Maxie say if he found out I’m getting feelings for a Team Aqua member?!”

“What is wrong with me?! There’s no way that I’m attracted to s/o! He’s from Team Magma! Our enemy! Archie’s enemy! My…enemy.”

Try as they might to fend off their feelings, love is quite persistent.

When next they meet, the awkward tension between them is quite noticeable.

Shelly and s/o are both unfocused and make several mistakes during their battle, somehow resulting in the former’s victory.

“I….I won? I won! After so many defeats I finally managed to beat you s/o!”

Despite losing the battle, s/o feels happy for Shelly.

“Congratulations Shelly, you deserve the win.”

Overwhelmed with happiness, Shelly absentmindedly pulls s/o into a kiss, which he can’t help but sink into.

The reality of what she just did sets in as Shelly quickly pushes s/o away with a reddened face.

“S-sorry! I didn’t mean to do that! I-”

Her embarrassed rambling is silenced by s/o kissing her again, catching her off guard.

“W-what was that for?”

“You kissed me first. Consider us even now.”

“Even?! Oh no, don’t think I’m letting you get away with that! Come here!”

She pulls him into another kiss, this one causing their feelings for one another to finally let loose.

After pulling away, Shelly and s/o stare into each other’s eyes before fully confessing their feelings.

Luckily for the two, none of their teammates were nearby to hear or see what’s been going on.

“What do we do now Shelly? I love you, and you love me, but we both know our Teams won’t approve of us being together.”

“Then we’ll keep it a secret. Our relationship is our business. Maxie and Archie don’t need to know.”

“Can we really make this work? I mean, I know I love you, but I don’t want either of us to get into trouble.”

“Don’t worry s/o, we’ll take things slow and play it by year. If our team finds out about us, we’ll cross that bridge when we get to it. I love you s/o, and I can’t fight what my heart wants any longer.”

“Alright then. I love you too Shelly.”

The two embrace and officially begin their secret relationship.

As a couple, s/o and Shelly can’t do a lot of things normal couples do for obvious reasons, but that doesn’t stop them from trying.

Cutesy texts, small gifts, love notes, and fun selfies are constantly being exchanged between the two.

Time together is extremely rare, but when they do manage to get away from their teams, cuddles and kisses are mandatory.

S/o and Shelly put up a facade that they absolutely hate each other when around their teammates as to not raise suspicion.

Luckily for them, it seems to be working.

Their respective leaders do often wonder who it is that their admin is dating, but respect them enough as to not pry into their personal lives.

When Groudon and Kyogre are awakened, s/o and Shelly accidentally kiss in front of their leaders after being relieved that the other is safe, thus letting their secret out.

After explaining everything to Maxie and Archie, the two wait for the incoming scolding.

“Shelly, while I don’t approve of you dating this Magma land lover and hiding it from me, I suppose if you’re happy, I just have to get used to it.”

“I’m quite surprised at you s/o. I never would have expected you to be in a relationship with one of our enemies. However, you are an adult that is aware of his own decisions. Besides, at the moment there are more important matters at hand.”

Once the legendary pokémon are dealt with, both teams realize the error of their ways and vow to work together to make up for their misdeeds, thus giving s/o and Shelly more time to be together.

“I’m happy everything worked out for the better. I love you so much Shelly.”

“I love you too s/o, and whatever our future holds, I know I want you by my side.”

The two share a loving kiss, both happy that their relationship doesn’t have to be hidden from their teams any longer.

The official Pokemon UK Twitter posted this art for Team Magma and Aqua for the 10yr anniversary of the games releasing in Europe (the unrelenting march of time is a scary thing 😅), and I love the contrast with how uniform Magma is, every grunt is in their team's pose vs. every Team Aqua being in a different pose, including this poor grunt that fell over:

Sync suits for Tabitha and Shelly! (Shelly and Huntail, Tabitha and Elgyem)

Alt version and some headcanon stuff under the cut

Initially I created these designs with the intention of them being fanmade sync pairs for Pokemon masters ex (Shelly and Huntail, Tabitha and Eglyem), with the premise that the two dress up as Pokemon professors to steal data but end up constantly running into each other and foiling each others plans, however they’re also intended to be hypothetical designs for what Tabitha and Shelly would’ve looked like before joining Team magma/Team aqua based on some personal headcanons and what we know of their backstories in game.

The reason Tabitha is based on deoxys is because I like to think he once saw it and became obsessed with extraterrestrial life before he became more mature and focused. Because of his love of space, his team was once made up of Pokemon like elgyem and magnezone, hence the sync pair pairing (and also because they gave deoxys to Steven already) which he eventually switched out once he became an admin.

The Magma suit and Aqua suits used in the delta episode were made through the collective work of their respective teams, but I like to think it was something he and Shelly were working on together with the hope that they could potentially find Jirachi and deoxys again before they left Devon corp to work as admins, taking their own copies of the initial blueprints with them. Despite their rivalry, I think they’d sometimes compromise to share stories with one another about their encounters with strange Pokemon like Jirachi, and when working together they’d produce great results.

The reason Shelly has a Huntail is because she enjoys diving and perhaps picked up a clampearl or two when she was younger which eventually evolved. Underneath her trousers and lab coat she’s wearing a diving suit, and after work she’d go for a swim with her huntail to let off steam. Another reason why I gave her huntail as a partner is because I think it’s a missed opportunity to not have the admins use more varied Pokemon to set them apart from regular grunts. Huntail fits Shelly perfectly, showing off her more brutal side, but also plays more into her intelligence by having her vary up her team to throw the player off guard.
