:{ A Video file is embedded. Valencia Island, Orange Archipelago. 10/24/24 8:40 pm. }:

The first thing you can make out is the sound of shaky breathing and the rustling of leaves, the shaky vision of the camera and the darkness of the surroundings make it hard to really make out much else. There’s a rushed, hurried feeling to it, and more than once the camera or what one can assume to be one of the subjects of the video runs into an unexpected branch and there's a moment of hushed laughter before moving on. 

Much of the video goes on like this, a few minutes of this stumbling journey before finally they slow, heavy breaths in the new quiet- well as quiet as the deep forest can truly be- overtaking the small… trail? There's a flash that blinds the camera for a moment (and the cry of a much perturbed Porygon inside of it) and a quiet Kantonian command before the gentle glow of a Mareep’s star-shaped tail dimly lights up the scene, letting us see it sort-of clearly for the first time. 

To call this a trail is generous at best, overgrown and forgotten over the years, but it seems to be of little consequence to our subjects, aside from the stray leaf or stick in their hair. At the head of our ‘adventuring party’ is Bellamy, obviously the most affected by the ordeal, leaning on their cane, laughing softly at Casimir who is, well, absolutely not all that affected. Casi twirls in place, a manic sort of energy and excitement radiating through him that even the Gardevoir and Meowscarada trailing behind them seem to have trouble not finding a little humor in. Her Weavile seems to be much more preoccupied with the forest around them, alert and casting glances in every direction. 

“That was perfect we should do that again we should do that a hundred times actually I think Ai—”

“Don’t get ahead of yourself Tenshi, there's still a ways to go from here.” There's an affection behind the words, despite the warning. “We have to go, there’s n—”

Amy’s words are cut short by Casi grabbing them by the shirt collar and pulling them down into an excited, almost desperate kiss that seems to take the wind and any real fight out of the taller woman(?), melting a little bit into the touch. When Casi finally lets her go, there's a redness creeping across their cheeks that is just possible to catch.

“I uh- right. We um. We need to go.” 

“Sure thing, Kemansou~”

Casimir prances ahead down the trail before Amy can quite react. After a shake of the head they curse under their breath and with a laugh they, and the rest of the group, turn to follow her into the dark.

:{ A Video file is embedded. Airship Station, Valencia Island, Orange Archipelago. 10/24/24 9:57 pm. }:

It's quiet here, and dark as the video starts. Crowded forest has been replaced by clear skies, a just-waning moon shining down from the starry sky. As the camera looks around it begins to become clearer where we find ourselves- the blinking lights and quiet movement of airship docks below, slower now in the darkness but not dead, the dark shape of one or two ships or blimps docked below and the bustle of passengers or cargo being loaded and unloaded.

The camera turns completely around, showing us more of the platform we find ourselves on, dark aside from the caution lights at the edges- both to stop a collision and to warn of the dangers of falling. It seems to be the highest of the docks, free from any prying eyes above and disused so late at night, abandoned if not for the odd group standing here in the mareep-light.

There’s a nervous sort of energy in the group, whatever euphoria that had run through them seemingly sapped by the trek down the mountain. Amy counts on their free hand, doing some kind of mental math while muttering under their breath to their ‘mareep’ who follows them as they pace, limping and leaning heavily on their cane. Casi checks in with the other pokemon, talking in hushed tones to the Meowscarada and Gardevoir- a half conversation we can only hear a few words of, as telepathy can’t be recorded. Her weavile prowls at the outskirts of the gathering, his feathers raised and wary. 

After a moment Amy nods and returns to the others, a look between the two trainers and a nod signifying an agreement on… something?

Everything happens almost at once.

With a hand signal from Amy, their ‘mareep’’s tail begins to brighten, the light slowly flashing and humming at a brightness that even in video is hard to look directly at. Casi returns the Meowscarada and calls her weavile back to her, gathering him in her arms. 

A loud, deafening noise grows around them as the air shifts, whipping hair and fabric about in a frenzy. The ‘mareep’ is recalled, for one drawn out moment leaving everything in darkness…

The noise grows and grows until it feels like it can't possibly get any louder, the camera practically shaking from it and then- with a burst of blinding light- a spotlight shines down on the party, silhouetting them against the source of the sound.

:{ What the fuck is that??!! ‘:3 }:

The helicopter hovers a few dozen feet above them, pattered after a Yanmega but what catches the eye is the bright, loud, undeniable logo. Team phobia.

As the door slides open Corky leans out over the open air, a smug looking grin as she shouts what must be some snarky quip- that's entirely drowned out by the sound of the blades. Behind her a concerned looking Armarouge reaches out a hand to make sure she doesn't topple directly out. Amy seems to shout something in return, whatever it is has the pair step back from the door and-

With a flash the small group is teleported from the ground and into the space where Corky just stood, up in the… up there… and we are still watching… from down here….

:{ WHAT??!! DON’T LEAVE ME DOWN HERE!! 3:’ }:

The camera jerks and shakes, becoming unstable as it jolts ahead. The feed cuts to black.

Look who finally hatched! (Ooc// ignore the official art beside him lol)

What should he be named?

[fortuneravine]

just now realizing how many pokemon ive named after herbs. chive. basil. parsley. mint. oregano. ive got a whole garden

[haveyouusedthispokemon]

my first sprigatito was named Ralsei, as I was doing a Deltarune/Undertale name theme for my Violet team, my Azumarill was named Kris and my Flamigo was named Susie.

my second one, in my Scarlet playthrough (yes i used it again) had a plant name. It might’ve been Basil, but I’ve done multiple plant/spice/flower name themes across different generations so the names get a bit muddled, bc I distinctly remember using that name for a Stoutland in gen 5. I do remember that my Scarlet-playthrough Lucario was named Larkspur, and my Garchomp was Wisteria.

It sounds like Ralsei was definitely a good choice since Meowscarada also has a Magician-y vibe! (albeit, more performer than Ralsei's fantasy) I can also see how Azumarill and Flamigo would match Kris and Suise ^^

Flower themed names are also a lot of fun! There's a lot of possibilities to choose from: based on appearance, meaning in flower language, general vibe, similarity in names, etc. Both Basils, Larkspur and Wisteria seem well named to me :D

* by kinnie I mean synpath but people keep telling me both definitions are wrong so😭 ps I'm also a furry and a therian?!?! I'd say shocking but it's not really

(this will be updated randomly)

[monterraverde]

basil :   does your muse have a love - hate relationship with anyone or anything ?

//Meowscaradas mainly. She appreciates them so much as an aesthetic and as a pokemon, but Meowscarada is usually the one sweeping her entire team in league battles, and those sting more then a normal loss. With Quaquavel Bappy at least has water absorb but whats she supposed to do against a Guaranteed critical hit??

So yeah- Magician cats lol

[sneasedtomeetyou]

sneased to meet you!✩

Name’s Casimir, but everyone calls me Casi or Mx. Sneasedtomeetyou. My current work is focused on slowly reintroducing Hisuian Sneasels and Sneasler to their natural habitat through a variety of methods! There isn’t a true purpose to me blogging here but I’m happy to share facts about my work and the Pokémon I love so much. 

Originally from Sinnoh, went to school and started my career in Paldea. After over a decade I have recently moved to Unova for a new start! I study various myths, legends, and conspiracy theories in my free-time. Sometimes I collect replica Pokéballs. Not the best with technology admittedly.

I'm polyamorous and have several partners, including my wonderful husband of 11 years! I talk about them and to them a lot. My husband does not have his own public blog and just signs off with his name. No you aren't allowed to have his actual blog, he doesn't want anyone to bother him. He's always been more of the lurking type I suppose.

Some of my Pokémon, in order of when I obtained them my team is:

Sneaks, Weavile, Male, Brave, Highly persistent

Basil, Meowscarada, Male, Calm, Is often lost in thought

Hotdog, Dachsbun, Female, Jolly, Loves to eat

Hemlock, Sneasler, Male, Hardy, Is somewhat stubborn

Bell, Shuppet, Female, Hasty, Somewhat of a clown

Indigo, Charmander, Male, Naughty, Likes to bite

Arlene, Meowth-Alolan, Female, Naughty, Mischievous

Blog Rules | Casi Art Credit | Team Art Credit

No pelipper mail/pelipper malice, musharna/darkrai mail(?), magic anons, eebydeeby blogs, crossover blogs, self-insert blogs, or crack rp without discussing it with me ooc first

Below the read more is some art of Casi's Pokemon, once the set is more complete these will be resized and moved to the full post above.

how i name the other half of my Pokémon: noises (example: Springle and poingus, a mamoswine and quagsire respectively)

[snowbreon]

For me, what qualifies as “having used” a pokemon varies somewhat, but my main qualification, as someone who tries to complete the regional dex in pretty much every (modern, I’m not dealing with honey tree bs) pokemon game, is that I used them for more than just filling a spot in the dex, and became at least a little bit attached. this includes mainline titles, fangames, spinoffs, all of them (except Smogon- I’ve built a lot of teams there but I never use them lol). Nicknames are a good sign of this, as I don’t typically name mons that are just for the dex, but ones that I’m catching for my team get names, but this is not always the case as even if I use them I don’t typically name legendaries/mythicals, like the Koraidon and Walking Wake I used in the DLC and competitively.

ramblings and some of my teams I would count as having used with their name themes below the cut!

if I remember correctly, this was Inclement Emerald? don’t mind the nicknames, I like picking a theme, and for this one it was Egyptian deities, but I also have some mons that I always name the same thing due to nostalgia, mainly Cyndaquil (and by extension its evolutions), who is always Ember after my first starter and mystery dungeon teammate

if I’m remembering correctly I went for a Greco-Roman mythology theme with my names for my PLA team: Bellona (H. Decidueye), Nemesis (Luxray), Pluto (Alpha Crobat), Helen (Gardevoir), and Neptune (Alpha Gastrodon)

Haven’t got any screenshots on hand for them, but I had a plant (mostly flowers) name theme for my Scarlet playthrough, I distinctly remember Larkspur the Lucario and Wisteria the Garchomp (after the one I used in pokemon prism many years ago), and also plants (but mostly herbs) for Black, of which I recall my Snivy being named Sage and my Lillipup being named Basil.

My Violet playthrough main story team had an Undertale/Deltarune name theme: Ralsei (Meowscarada), Kris (Azumarill), Susie (Flamigo), Maddie (Talonflame it’s short for mad dummy because I was running out of braincells), Berdly (Kilowattrel), So Sorry (Grafaiai) who got swapped out for a Clodsire whose name I can’t remember rn.

My Shield team, which was where I started doing themed nicknames, all were named after Kingdom Hearts characters bc that was my most recent hyperfix at the time. This included, with this list being a mix of my story, postgame, and competitive teams: Demyx (Inteleon), Marluxia (G. Rapidash), Riku (Shiny Umbreon), Elrena (Bolthund), Larxene (Salazzle), Luxu (Shiny Decidueye), Axel (Gmax Charizard), Strelitzia (shiny Milotic), and more that I can’t remember off the top of my head, it’s been a while.

bonus random screenies from my switch and a fun fact: did you know that pokemon you take a picture with in Hisui have a special ribbon when transferred to SV? it gives them the title “<name> of the Distant Past”

do you think you would be able to run a poll of what people consider to be "using a pokemon on their team."? im always a bit confused when i see post-game only pokemon getting more than 0 votes

the options could be something like "i consider a pokemon one that ive used if:"

i used it in the main story

i used it in the main story AND/OR post game

i used it in a competitive team

i used it in a fangame or mod (randomizer etc.)

nuance

you can add any options you feel like, id just love to see something like this. Thanks!!

[A package arrives!! Inside is a winter coat, hand dyed and embroidered to look like Basil, your Meowscarada! Included is a short note.]

Tenshi my darling, I know that I'm a bit late for the solstice, admittedly I had planned on giving this to you at the start of the trip but in my haste forgot to pack it and had to wait for it to arrive. I started this project a little while back, and I hope you like it- I took a bit of a guess at the style but it was hard to forget how lovely you looked in green... Yours always- Bellamy

💕 Need all of you to appreciate the hard work my babygirl put into this coat right this instant actually. Now that I'm coherent enough to be posting again I realized you guys never got to see everything
