Happy pride month. Have some kinda blog spoilers as a treat.

Clarent: So yes, I do miss it. I miss the ones I knew before, not the loneliness between them. Because despite everything that's happened, I've loved every Bisharp I've had the luck of knowing.

Sakura Jade’s ref was kinda ugly so I redrew it and gave him a slight redesign to make him look more cohesive and like his mom. Might’ve cornered myself into making a ton of new refs this year oops

Any favorite blogs ?

(Too many to fully list lol! Here’s a few but I genuinely think there’s so many amazing blogs out there that I can’t pick one favourite.

Here’s some that I can think of from the top of my head:

@asksavel @askvekpa @askdeoxys @breed-station @symphonies-of-silver @askthetraveller @pkmn-monochrome @asklostlornlite @bugsofpetalroot @asktheweirdpichu @ask-meowscarada @askleaderscrest @ask-north @askchimeknight @asksolgaleo @askpharos @askcapital @ask-diane

Again, I’m sure there are more ask blogs that I’ve forgotten but I genuinely think that every blog has something amazing going for it! I just wish I had more confidence to approach some of these blogs because I’ve been a fan of a few of these way before I decided to create an ask blog so my brain is still like,”I don’t think I could ever get to that level.”

I know, that’s stupid to think. Thanks for the question!)

@/luckylooplet has me thinking about guildmaster noe rn and i think i wanna scrap the ribombee second-in-command character. it doesnt matter too much bc i only ever posted him like. once. several years ago. (its probably news that he uses he/him now lmao) but basically he's kind of a product of my high school self and my taste in characters has definitely changed overtime so that he doesn't fit it anymore. basically he was supposed to be like.... awww he looks sweet, but uh oh, he's actually kind of a jerk!! and no one likes him actually!! but then i had zero ideas for him and he had like. no chemistry with noe because she's also got a sarcastic/mean streak. so the guild just felt unnecessarily mean and i don't want that vibe.

so i thiiiink the new second-in-command is gonna be more of a genuine sweetheart who's highly concerned about his apprentices and their progress, he hovers over shona and spectra in particular since they struggle a lot, and while he's sweet, he's very much experienced and tries to steer the two away from their polarizing views and naivety. he probably REALLY wants to help them just capture atlas already because he can see it's really stressing them out, but noe convinces him to leave it and let them figure it out. noe is the "throw them in the deep end" type while this new character is sort of a helicopter parent and they kinda balance one another out that way.

also i don't want another bug in a major role, i wanna put a ribombee character in a nicer role on bugsofpetalroot.

soooo i'm looking at gen 8/9 pokemon who could be the new character... i thought alcremie for a split second but actually i'll make them the chef since i still need a chef character. i need to fill out the persian guild more than just "i think there's also a raboot in there somewhere" sdlkflsdf

Do you have any pmd ocs?

*grabs my toyhouse* do you know what you've just done

I'VE GOT TOO MANY!!!

Jokes aside, my biggest hyperfixation is my own PMDverse lmaoooo. It involves both my interpretations of canon characters and plotlines (which take a backseat admittedly but theyre fun to ruminate on while i replay the games) and my own PMD plotline! It's called Starfall and it features these three dweebs called Team Starlight as they're all trapped in Ultra Space and have to make their way back home, as well as find the other Pokemon who have been lost to Ultra Space (like Asha's family, the Rescue Team Silverwind)

There isn't really a Hero/Partner dynamic with any of these, though the closest would probably be Skylar/Asha.

Valerie is a Popplio with aura deficiency from being kept in her egg for too long, so she's had a very sheltered upbringing due to her overprotective brother. She's in the most dangerous position and she's the newest victim to Ultra Space, so Skylar and Asha have taken her under their wing to protect her. She's a very kindhearted and loving Pokemon, who tries to see the best in others, but she's also rather ignorant. She also harbors deep insecurity though because of her condition. She has always wanted to be an explorer, but never believed she could be one. While she's frightened, a part of her is also a little excited at the opportunities being in Ultra Space will give her. Though she doesn't know what sort of plot she's been thrown into...

Skylar is the "Hero", a human who was turned into a Pokemon with no memories of their human life. They're the de facto leader of the group and are actually very excited to be in Ultra Space: they're fascinated by how the Ultra Beasts live and they welcome the adventure they've been thrown into. They can be very rash and run into situations- they get a little too comfortable too quickly, which can annoy the Ultra Beasts. They don't really even mind being an Espurr- Aside from the headaches, it feels better than their human body... at least for now. But their amnesia terrifies them- whenever they're asked about their human past, they can't say anything- they just feel anxiety.

Asha is a Gligar that's very cautious and reserved, and wants as little nonsense and distraction as possible at achieving their goal of finding their family and home. Which is hard when you're a dimension traveler with two very curious companions. She's the one keeping everyone on track... with varying success. But her biggest issue is that she's actually a "glitch". She's the child of two Pokemon from different timelines that were never supposed to meet. So her aura is very unstable and can cause distortions. She believes that strong emotions make it worse, so they try to keep their emotions under wraps- which is difficult since they have a short fuse. She's deeply ashamed of this and is very resentful of her condition, and even wonders if she's more of a liability than an asset. Though they want to find their family again... they wonder if it'd be safer to stay out of their lives.

Can't get into all of it without spoilers but yeah I'm kinda obsessed with them. Those are the main three but I have several ocs that I sorta hyperfixate on one at a time- current one is Team Silverwind actually but I haven't properly updated their bios LOL. Please ask me about them though I love them sooooo much

(I also have a PMD OC askblog called @bugsofpetalroot which I haven't updated in a hot minute because I got too anxious, which I've been trying to work on, but I'll get back to it a in a bit I swear. It's about autistic bugs trying to find community in a world that feels like it's out to get them. Also I primarily post about these guys on my main @perenlop and art blog @asterbats. I actually just posted some stuff of my new PSMD team last night hee hee :3)

"You're right. I'm angry. I'm a million different things towards Dravol. She hurt everyone, including my child. But I have a plan to see through with her. One I think I need Gladius's help for."

"It depends on whether I can trust him or not. So far... it's looking like I can. What do you all think?"

@bugsofpetalroot

Comment / Ask prompt - Do you think Lucky can trust Gladius?

And just like that guys it’s finally done @bugsofpetalroot sorry this took a while but I hope you like it

“Plus Petalroot has a lot of bug and grass types... not that it stops anyone else from living here! That’s only because the environment feels good to us!

Petalroot is actually kinda cool because it’s within a forest, so it kinda feels like you’re still wild! Some Pokemon even prefer to hunt and gather for food, but some of us prefer the ones that Gin grows himself, so I usually buy his stuff!”

“But to answer your question! No I haven’t, actually! I’ve only lived here for a few years!”

“It was SO fun living like that!! I’ve made friends all over the world because of it!! So I’ve lived in trees, in towns, in cities, on rafts, all kinds of places!”

“We actually stopped at Petalroot once- It was just supposed to be a pit stop, but I remembered it so well because I evolved for the first time here! That was a REALLY crazy experience, and also kinda scary because I almost got eaten, but that’s not really important! I was okay in the end because of the Pokemon living here, and how they stuck together as a community really stuck with me! So once my dad let me fly on my own, I moved here permanently!”

“And Petalroot’s been a little more... lively, ever since!”
