#bonus zorua

[theanoninyourinbox]

Great! Can I please get art that's a fusion of Hisuian Zoroark from Pokemon Legends Arceus and Chien Pao from Pokemon Scarlet and Violet? They both look very cool and I will like to see your take on them!

-rubs hands together- Ohoho I was really excited about this one! It was difficult - I wasn’t too sure how to combine the wildly different body shapes without looking like a sports mascot or a very complicated fursuit - but I’m happy with what I came up with.

This Pokémon would be the remnant of an older species that was hunted to extinction - a normal type with incredible soft fur and little self preservation. Its ghost rose under the northern lights, still all soft fur, but now a vicious hunter, toying with its prey under the shimmering curtains of the Borealis. The last thing a poacher will see is a pair of old skinning daggers descending in a flurry of snow…

It would definitely be a pseudo legendary, and would live in the high mountains, haunting the cabins where its previous forms were turned into fur coats and hats. Would require VERY high friendship, if not max, to evolve from Sad Catfox into Death From Above Leopard. I hope you enjoy Glitter!

Got two creatures today

I just realized Zorua kind of looks like 2000's Warrior Cats Scourge

He's on his way to murder someone in an AMV

[pigeon-wizard]

what if there was a pokemon trainer that named all their pokemon ‘what’ ‘who’ ‘and’ etc. so every battle just becomes abbott and costello’s who’s on first

OL2 and Pokemon!!! Background is from the game :D

No motion blur:

and a simple bg <3 oh my son he is so darling...

anyway I'm going to talk about all my thoughts on what pokemon the characters would have so it might get wordy:

FIRST UP QIU LIN!!! I gave him a fletchling cuz they're one of the speedier birds and I feel like it just fits him yanno? And mimikyu also suits his personality I think, I can totally see him being super kind and befriending it and UGH. My heart.

I limited myself to two pokemon for this piece but I was also considering KIRLIA!! (because ballet, I'll probably draw this one at some point), deerling (coz autumn lol), pumpkaboo, ninjask, duskull (coz of his halloween costume), and just for vibes: riolu, charmeleon, jolteon, pikachu.

OKAY TAMARACK TIME!!! My first pick is teddiursa, I think, purely for the cuteness factor, plus they stand similar, it's sooo cute. Next kricketot (because cello), seedot, polteageist, politoed and for some more vibe ones: phantump, leafeon, togepi!! (oh my it fits her so well), joltik, comfey, bulbasaur, cleffa.

now for nobody's favourite, mr baxter alexander ward. So my first thought was gardevoir, specifically mega gardevoir because it looks like a ballroom dancer (plus the shiny has a black dress), but yeah he would definitely have a galarian zigzagoon as a teen (coz he listens to heavy metal i think?), aaand otherwise i had, zebstriker, gothitelle, mightyena, wooloo, and shiny roserade (coz it's fancy)

And lastly Ren! I'll be transparent- I do not know a lot about her,,, yeag my bad, so I just have all the fox pokemon put down for her, vulpix, nickit, fennekin, zorua- but also Volcarona I think would fit her vibes.

I lied that wasn't the last one a little bonus for my own mc, Rena, she would have a Vikavolt, Porygon, Staraptor, Espeon, Minccino, and Garchomp - and she's very afraid of ghost types

i love pokemon so much please tell me what pkemon your mcs would have pleaase please please

[spookypokepuffs]

[sincerely-sofie]

Hi, I was the anon who had the idea of Skunktank running into Merit and Constance and idk if my ask made it through. I hope it didn’t, because I was not finished typing lmao-

But I imagine Skunktank doesn’t know much about Ruby’s past. She doesn’t want to talk about it. He does remember there was a period of time where Opal looked devastated, and that she wouldn’t explain what happened. Ruby showed up in Twig’s and Ark’s care not too long after. It’s only a little later he just happens to catch Ruby’s illusion waver a little, and he sees these . . . Scars. Scars that shouldn’t ever be on a child. He thinks that maybe, just maybe, that he saw it wrong, but he gnaws at the back of his head until he pulls Twig aside and tells her that maybe Ruby should be taken to the doctor, because he thinks he saw some scarring. Twig takes a deep inhale, pausing to find the words, and the longer she takes, the more dread Skunktank feels.

Eventually Twig tells him that they know about the scars, and that Ruby is recovering. She’s safe, so it’s best not to ask either of the girls about it. When Skunktank presses — out of concern, a rare sight from him — Twig tells him it’s not her story to tell. After another brief pause, she continues and says that she would appreciate it if he kept an eye out for two Hisuian Zoroarks — one normal, one shiny — always together with matching burn scars. She doesn’t want Skunktank to do anything other than tell her and Ark where they are and if they’re coming anywhere close to the village. That’s it. Do NOT do anything else. If he won’t listen for Twig, listen for Ruby and Opal.

Skunktank can’t get anymore information, so he lets it go for now. Ruby is safe and healthy, so that’s all that matters. If anyone can keep her safe, it’s legendary battler Twig and nightmare bringer Ark. It’s put in the back of his mind. Some time later, when he’s away from the village, he bumps into two Pokémon with burn scars all over their hands. When they fall, their illusions drop and reveal two Hisuian Zoroarks, their burn scars still remaining. Skunktank sees their claws, and his mind flashes back to the shape of Ruby’s scars and Twig’s warning. He knows who they are now. He looks at them, and he can’t help but feel sick. He’s nauseated. He wonders if he’s staring at another imagine of himself — a version that went too far. A version that would have just shrugged their shoulders at the thought of those little Azurill and Marill kids going into the Amp Plains to get their treasure back, uncaring if they got hurt. A version of themselves that got two kids in the form of a Mudkip and Charmander hurt.

These two are attempted murderers, free to go due to lack of evidence, leaving their baby sister with scars from a wound that it was a miracle that she survived from.

It’s no wonder Twig hates him. He’s looking into some distorted mirror — one that’s not entirely accurate, but still displays a general image — and he hates what he’s looking at too.

ANON I’M LOSING MY MIND

I did get the ask, actually! I’ve just been slowing down answering asks in general because I’m (yet again) sick as a dog, and I wanted to give that ask a more extensive, drawn response!

Here’s an incomplete teaser where Twig and Ark ask Skuntank to take Ruby out on a walk for her physical therapy while they’re stuck dealing with legal stuff. They encounter Merit and Constance while out and about.

For some bonus context, despite Ruby’s strong preference to hide her bandages (and later her scars) using illusions, she’s been instructed to avoid using illusions whatsoever. However, she’s still keeping her form of a unovan zorua secret, so she’s still using that illusion:

Used official Café Remix art of Hisuian Zorua as a base to make this, yahoo. Café Kero...

Bonus flat version because it's fascinating to me. Can you guess how long i spent shading this. can you guess

First | Previous | Next

Aoko’s team in my au!! I think she would have a team full of very cute but also VERY strong Pokémon…bonus points bc they are all Fairy types who are super effective against Dark-type Zorua Kaito

Case closed count: MK episode 17 :)

[efverse]

also a little bonus zorua thing.

[quitealotofsodapop]

I mean, Macaque sees the reference. The only thing is, Wukong didn't call the Zorua 'Macaque'. He called him Moon.

Prev.

Wukong calling the Unovan Zorua "Moon" and every pet name under the sky, about 40% convinced it's just Macaque pulling a long con, and hoping it "bresks character" soon.

Macaque I feel came across his little shapeshifters while travelling, saw that the Unovan Zorua had his colors and thought "Imma pull the best prank ever" >:3

Bonus; fox pokemon just sorta hang around Jiuweihuli/Nine Tailed Vixen, so she's got plenty to lend! Jin and Yin both have Vulpix's
