A little break from requests—my mutual @vinnystaysawake is REALLY stoked about the recent Pokémon leaks and it got us talking about his and his friends’ Pokémon ship. I promptly turned into a Wings of Fire AU. He insisted that I post it. I’m not set on Kynthos as Cynthia’s name, so if anyone has any suggestions, throw em in the comments!
Characters: Cirrus (Cyrus, IceWing), Kynthos (Cynthia, NightWing), Sting (Sidney, SandWing)

Hey guys, I was thinking here and gosh, the Pokémon Anime really looked at some strong Pokémon and said "have this poorly build moveset" didn't it?
I mean, we all know they can be pretty sloppy with the moves' effects and what Pokémon should be capable to learn them and such... But then sometimes they would be careful to select the moveset of an important Pokémon just so they could deliberately give a really bad moveset to them AKKAKAKKAKAK
Doubts? Come with me and remember five strong Pokémon with really bad movesets listed in the rant below:
5. Ash's Charizard's Unova Return moveset
Tumblr media
Flamethrower, Slash, Wing Attack & Dragon Tail.
Starting with one that was for a long time the strongest Pokémon ever owned by our favorite 10 years old kid, Charizard. Who didn't get hyped when heard he was returning to the anime in Unova? Who didn't jump on their chairs watching his battle against Iris' Dragonite? I know, me too...
In fact that's not really a bad moveset at all, Flamethrower is the most iconic Fire-Type move for a reason and has always been one move Ash's Charizard always kept, Wing Attack brings a STAB to his second type, what is always welcome, Slash has a high critical-ratio and Dragon Tail brings a good response to the, by the time sovereign, Dragon-Type
But then... C'mon it's Gen V!! Wing Attack is an early route bird move, why is it here when he could have Air Slash? Why not give him Shadow Claw, bringing the same effect of Slash but with Ghost-Type, bringing two advantages to the fire lizard's set? Slash was not super effect against any type after all. Why not give either Dragon Pulse or Dragon Claw, that were stronger Dragon Tail and had no secondary effect to the anime ignore?
And that's just basing on this moveset, but our Charizard have already counted with more powerful moves even before go to train in the Charicific Valley, like Submission, that would deal well with the Rock-Types, and after training with the Charizards from the Charicific Valley he always came back with stronger moves, like Steel Wing, other that was a perfect counter to his main weakness: the Rock-Type, or even the Overheat, one of the strongest Fire-Type moves he can learn and that he used against an all mighty Articuno. I would even say Dragon Breath was a good call to keep, same base power as Dragon Tail but with a side effect not always ignored by the anime... Why not bring any of these moves back or bring some of the strongest like Solar Beam and Iron Tail? It because I don't want start a rant about why he deserved Blast Burn as a treat since Pignite got Fire Pledge.
Anyways, Ash's Charizard surely deserved a better moveset to his return in Unova.
4. Ash's Greninja's final moveset
Tumblr media
Water Shuriken, Double Team, Aerial Ace & Cut
I podered a lot about who between Greninja and Charizard got the worst moveset, but I think now is clear that Greninja got the worst between these two.
Double Team is an OK move, in the games it can become really dangerous if the opponent manage to successfully use it more than twice and the anime does extract its nature well and Aerial Ace is undoubtedly the best choice of this set: it hits super effective in Grass-, Fighting- and Bug- Types, three weaknesses covered by a single move (Learn, Charizard😤).
But then... Water Shuriken have as advantage the fact it is a multi-strike move and as disadvantage the fact it is a multi-strike move 🙃 generally are 2 to 3 weak hits that barely deals some decent damage, but with some luck you can get up to 5 hits, what makes a considerable damage plus, each one have its own chance to be a critical hit, one more advantage is the priority of the move (although in the anime it is fairly ignored '3') and one advantage very specific to Ash's Greninja is that this move specifically receives a singular boost from the Ash-Greninja transformation... All of this to say: not that good, but since it's Ash's Greninja and the AniPoke's case, good in this specific case...
And then comes Cut... Cut... CUT!!! The weak HM move, the main reason why we dedicate a separated Pokémon to learn the HM moves because of how much weak this move is, such a bad move that when they distributed Ash's Greninja to the games they made the on point choice to switch for Night Slash: far more powerful AND a STAB, what makes me wonder why didn't they ever made him learn in the anime.
The worst part of this moveset is that it's kept ever since Greninja evolves and is never changed, not even when some episodes were perfect to this, such like the episode pre-rematch vs Wufric, the exchange of Cut by Night Slash would be just a perfect match to Ash and Greninja mastering the Ash-Greninja form... WE WERE ROBBED!!! THERE'S NO REASON TO NOT GIVE HIM A BETTER MOVE!!!
Want Greninja's moves to resemble ninja weapons? Make the Night Slash a katana! Wants him to continue to make a kunai because it's ninjier? Make it be a purplish~blackish kunai! Easy like that! Night Slash would be the perfect evolution to Cut AND the Anime never limited itself to the 'HM moves can't be forgotten' rule before, and surely didn't stop it there 😤
Sorry Greninja, but Cut I can't forgive...
3. Sawyer's Sceptile's final moveset
Tumblr media
Frenzy Plant, Leaf Storm, Leaf Blade & Dragon Claw
Well, the worst part is that each of these moves are great individually, but the fact this moveset combos Leaf Storm, move that will lower the Special Attack Stat after every use, thus weakening itself, and Frenzy Plant, move categorized as Special Attack that makes the Pokémon vunerable after its usage, makes it fall really down. GOSH, Sawyer was hyped as an observer and great strategist, WHAT HECK WAS HE THINKING WHEN PUT THESE TWO MOVES TOGETHER???!!!
Why did he think it was a good idea to put both moves together??? If it wasn't the anime, after a time the Frenzy Plant would be dealing damage of a Leafage but still forcing a recharge turn *facepalms*
Leaf Blade and Dragon Claw being together are the best choice however as they are two strong STABs + they're physical, what means repeated usage of Leaf Storm is not weakening them. But still, three STABs of the same type and one of the secondary (as Mega Evolution only) is not that genius thing you'd expect of somebody who successfully used a Slaking in the league.
Really, a Thunder Punch to deal with the Flying-Types or Brick Break or Focus Blast to deal with the Ice-Types or even Iron Tail to deal with Ice- and Fairy-Types would be far a wiser choice (Also Mega Sceptile's quirk of launching its tail would bring a really interesting way to use this last suggested move btw)... Take your bronze medal Sceptile.
2. Cynthia's Garchomp's Masters Tournament moveset
Tumblr media
Draco Meteor, Scale Shot, Dragon Claw & Stealth Rock
Then you look to the other Pokémon Cynthia brought to the Masters Tournament and realize they all got better movesets 👁️👄👁️
There's no way this choice was not thinking in nerf Garchomp because GOSH, three STABs of one single out of the TWO Types this pokémon have + Stealth Fucking Rock of all moves... WHY?!?! DIDN'T THEY THINK WE TRUSTED ASH'S SKILLS ENOUGH?!?! (maybe y'all didn't, but that's not excuse!! THEY WERE GOING TO PROVE YOU WRONG ANYWAY!!!)
The only well thought on this is that Draco Meteor, move that reduces Special Attack, was along just physical moves... But then all Dragon-Type moves, Cynthia's lucky Ash didn't bring Mr. Mime to this tournament... But she's Cynthia, she SHOULDN'T have to count on luck, SHE NEVER NEEDED THAT BEFORE!! SHE ALWAYS HAD MOVES TO COVER!!
Her Garchomp's very first moveset was already far more covered than that with Dig, Dragon Rush, Giga Impact and Brick Break, one of Games' Cynthia's Garchomp moveset is basically the same but with Earthquake... Why not bring these moves??! Why wasn't the Sinnoh Champion's Ace ever allowed to have any Ground-Type STAB afterwards?? Why wasn't one of the most OP Pokémon known by the Pokémon Fans allowed to be OP?? Where are the cover moves?
The worst is that the last move in this set is Stealth Rock... WHO THE HECK USES GARCHOMP AS A HAZARD SETTER???
Garchomp is an offensive Pokémon, an attacker, the right way to use one is teach them the four moves that are the best STABs and covers in your vision and press A to obliterate your enemies! That's what I do, that's what many players do, that's what Games' Cynthia does, THAT'S EVEN WHAT DEBUT CYNTHIA DID 😤😤😤 GARCHOMP'S NOT A HAZARD SETTER. THEY DON'T MATCH IN ANY ANGLE WITH STEALTH FUCKING ROCK!!
If you want any status move, you add a Sandstorm or a Swords Dance, they will match a LOT more with your Garchomp, not kidding, Stealth Rock was used in the worst way AND time possibly.
Funnily enough the choice to teach Scale Shot was probably a way of the anime to portray Cynthia as updated and aware towards the new moves BUT THEY COULD'VE BROUGHT STOMPING TANTRUM OR SCORCHING SAND THAT WOULD BE MORE CONVINCING AS IT RECEIVES STAB FROM GARCHOMP'S SECONDARY TYPE!! 😤😤
So sad considering how diversified are the moves Garchomp can learn... This moveset deserved gold medal in being the worst... But unfortunately they made one worse 🫥
1. Stephan's Zebstrika's Unova League moveset
Tumblr media
Double Edge, Stomp, Facade & Giga Impact
There's no words to define how shitty this moveset is, if Sawyer's Sceptile and Cynthia's Garchomp at least rely on STABs, Stephan's Zebstrika DOESN'T EVEN COUNT ON IT!!!
Individually they are all good moves: Stomp is fairly strong and can cause the opponent to flinch, Facade is also fairly strong and causes massive damage under negative status, and Double Edge & Giga Impact both cause massive damage anyway despite their respective backlashes.
All Normal-Type moves though, so he doesn't receive STAB in any of these, he also doesn't have the Scrappy ability to be able to stand against Ghost-Types, so a single Litwick could obliterate him, he can't land super effective hits, don't count on it, he can't cause any status, he can't recover health, he can't raise his speed since he forgot Flame Charge, this moveset is so genius that a Litwick would have no problem sweeping the floor with this poor zebra, someone save this pokémon 😤
Moral of the story: Just find a Grass-Type if you need to deal with your rival's Water/Ground-Type, the way you'll nerf your Electric-Type is shameful. Who's gonna give his plastic gold medal?

I’m on my period, so the sexual feelings that I hate so much are heightened. I keep wanting a triangle bill cipher body pillow or a Cynthia from pokemon body pillow. Or a vibrator… But I’m disgusted…

Everytime I export any PAA the colors change so much… On the 2DS the colors are so muted that when I export it she looks straight orange🥹

Does Emmet have Ingo's journal?
Yes, indeed! He received it from Ansy back in the prologue shortly after Ingo disappeared.
Tumblr media
Since then, he reads from it at least once a day, & always keeps it in his coat’s inner pocket during the day, next to his bedside at night. It was well-cared for, but whenever there was any wear / tear, he would meticulously repair it as he filled in his various notes (mostly translations from old Sinnohese to modern Galarian). 📖

i looooove pokémon npcs whose team members subtly imply something about them that's never touched upon in the story or at least never outright said. i love villains having friendship evos. i love trainers who commit hard to one aesthetic or vibe with their team (beyond simply sharing a type) and i love it even better when there's one random exception especially if that's their ace. i love when later down the line someone boxes the cute fun soft baby pokémon they used to have in favor of a seemingly stronger or scarier one to show that they're getting serious. i love when they have a pokémon that's difficult to get and raises lots of questions about them. i love it when the lore behind a pokémon fits the character to a T and i love it even better when it appears to contradict them. give me the story-gameplay harmony but better yet give me what appears to be story-gameplay dissonance but might actually have implications if we're willing to dive deep into it

Adding from this post, I made more sinnoh babies! Arceus is nothing but legs like a deer/horse/llama baby should be, and the others are pudgy fat baby creechurs. Please hold them all gently like fresh loaves of bread~
Also had the idea to doodle lil Giratina as soon as he hatched from his egg in the HGSS Arceus event. Ethan congratulations your a dad to a god now, Cynthia is there too and flabbergasted at how liddol a god is XD

Pokémon Timeskip Series: Champion Dawn 🌸❄️
Known as Sinnoh’s Ice Queen, Dawn is best known for her intimidating yet caring nature. She’s fierce and calculating, never leaving any room for error especially when it comes to battling. On her off days you can find her in the contest hall, a hobby she picked up from her mother, or in the Battle Frontier/Pokémon Lab to catch up with her best friends. It is said she was recently engaged to a certain johto boy (Ethan. It’s Ethan.) however they will not publicly revealed their plans for the wedding as of yet
Made a timeskip adult champion Dawn design a while back! It’s still my favorite of my timeskip series hehehe I hope you enjoy!
