Muvian rambles, brought u by @doodlingwren 's questions:

Lil Dratini! By the way, why Mu’s team (or in general for the Muvians) is made of Dragon Pokémon? Beside the fact that it is connected by their culture in this AU, what made you choose them instead of, I don’t know, Psychic or Fairy Type? I need the LORE!!! 🤯😳

Pulls the nerd emoji akSUALLY

Really good question!!

In the games Dragon types are often described as mystical like creatures (it's not a coincidence that until the introduction of Fairy types, the dragon type was heavily attached to Legendary pokemon). They are wielded only by highly skilled trainers (E4 member Drake/Drasna, Champion Cynthia), or by characters that have some cultural/historical/long running connection to Dragon types (See Lance and Clair coming from the same clan seen in Blackthorn city, the Draconids tribe with its connection to Rayquaza in Hoenn, Drayden and Iris being the ones well in the know about the Legend surrounding Reshiram and Zekrom, amongst many others).

With that in mind, I felt like it was the most suitable type for muvians. You're correct in Fairy types also being a possibility. But, the Dragon type has a different kind of worldbuilding that I felt like, fit them better. I never considered Psychic types for them, because of the overlap with Shaka.

The tribe's location is also VERY important and relevant. Muvians originate from Sinnoh, and region that carries a heavy theme of history, and ancient times for the pokemon world. Even though, there only being only one native, dragon type species in the Garchomp line (which makes sense, because it's the coldest region we have seen thus far). The tribe is also located somewhere within Mt. Coronet which would also ensure that, not everyone is even aware of their existence.

Now, here's another sacrifice from Sts lore I have to make. Because, outside of Az, who is like that due to the effects of the weird weapon he used in a war that's explained in the XY games, we don't really have any immortal beings. So that means, Alde and Mu can grow old & happily together and I wont be sobbing over it Muvians in this AU are mostly common humans.

Mostly, because I also mentioned they also should have a foot in Aura reading and use. A concept that was introduced in Sinnoh, by the likes of Riley and the Lucario line (it really wasn't expanded on the games, but the anime and manga had a field trip with it). So, through that, Mu retains a form of telekinesis and telepathy. It's this ability that ensures muvians close connection, to dragon types.

Taking mental notes to draw Shion soothing down a Kommo-o/Mu soothing down a Roaring Moon/Kiki soothing down a Draconzolt.

Gold Amazon - Genderbend AU Brainstorming

See I have other AUs guys

Posting here some of the rambles I've done with @ectogusher / @doodlingwren and @awesomesauce2929 !

On this post, I'll be mainly focused on the gold saints -> Amazons.

ND Amazons -

I've only really got to think of Genderbend for only a handful of golds. And one of the main reasons to it is bc, I like to think that the 18th century is the first time Amazons make it to the highest ranking in Athena's army. Which translates into not all golds have been genderbent as a result;

The golds I have genderbent:

Shion;

Dohko;

Kaiser;

Deathtoll wouldn't be genderbent per se, it just means they would present themselves a lot more feminine leaning. They are still NB in essence, it's just the way they prefer to refer to themselves changes ever so slightly. DT also wouldn't be referring to themselves as an Amazon;

Historically speaking, Athena's army has always been really harsh on women, there's a very apparent bias to saints & male warriors (which becomes all the more apparent their trainings, with Amazons' feeling quite lackluster compared to their male counterparts.). So, the odds have almost always been stacked up against them.

Despite all the odds, for the very first time in the 18th century, at least 3 Amazons filled the shoes of the Army's elite. It was a huge leap and progress, but it still didn't bring in any immediate changes to the army's structure.

And even when Sanctuary had a woman as its Pope, something entirely new, in Shion. It also didn't mean she brought any significant changes, to the way Amazons/women were treated, even less tried to do anything about their trainings.

Suikyo would also have been genderbent into an Amazon, I'm just not touching on her here bc the focus rn is on Golds.

Classic

The 20th Century is the very first line up to be entirely filled out, by Amazons. Something that never happened before. Especially considering that, some of the girls were originally going to be drafted to the Saintia roles. BUT seeing there wouldn't be any men, to take on the role of saints. All the 20th century's appendixes were put into the role of Amazons.

Ironically, the first one that would bring any real changes would be none other than Saga, while she was disguised as the Pope. Utilizing her newfound position and power, she sought out to create a field that mainly benefitted herself above all else. But, it also ended up benefiting the other Gold Amazons.

Some changes included giving the girls ampler access to knowledge (letting them reach the same level as their counterparts), continue their trainings, give them more freedom/lee-way for themselves. Saga, whether she saw it coming or not, was crucial to elevate the amazons importance even though her motivations were selfish ones.

The Mask rule is still as crucial as ever for them. Going as far as for them having to cover their faces with anything, when they aren't wearing their cloths.

Some opt to wear headscarfs, whereas others tend to get creative with it (e.g.:Aldebaran keeps her motorcyclist helmet on almost at all times).

Omega

The 21st century saw the return of a handful saints amongst the high ranks, BUT considering how a good chunk of it were brought on board during Mars' reign. Former Mars followers find themselves in a grey area (but not for long, given that most of them were killed in the confrontation against Kouga and his friends).

Pope Harbinger in a way, follows Saga's steps to bring even bigger changes towards the amazons. Basically, expanding even more on what Saga may have started.

The Mask rule is still prevalent, especially for ceremonies and special dates, BUT it's no longer being as enforced as it once used to be.

ND events brainstorming

Obligatory @doodlingwren

Unlike the Classic's events, I didn't get to think a whole lot about ND as I'm writing this. So far, I only have a very rough idea of what it should be, and how it contributes to reaching where we are in the Classic's setting.

Aesthetic/Sprite-wise. I'd be following G/R/B/Y's look and rudimentary af sprites for ND. This is mostly a mental note for me, when I get around to working on them.

ND should take place at least 30-50 years before, the Classic's setting. There's a HUGE window of time between the settings which most certainly could explain:

People seemingly forgetting about Hades squad's antics in ND. Only older people genuinely seem to have a vivid memory of what happened, and the sense of "they must have been disbanded a long time ago, right?". This also means that Hades is indeed VERY old, but somehow maintains a mostly youthful look (dhermatologists hate this guy);

This also explains why in the classic's setting there is barely any acknowledgement to the previous GLs and E4 members, or even why PC never runs into them (they have either retired/moved out of Sanctuary);

The underground tunnels aren't that big, and they still retain its natural formations. They may connect a city to another dungeon/route but, nowhere NEAR the level that we observe in Classic's setting. It sure explains why it took Hades THIS long to conclude the tunnels and properly execute his plan;

It would also explain why the likes of Dohko could have obtained, seemingly ancient time's species (they used to be a lot more common way back then).

ND's setting is all about the introduction of the Pokemon League in Sanctuary's grounds. PC will be seeing how there's a lot of work that has yet to be done (some GLs have recently been assigned to their positions), and how it is still in its infancy. As well as how it became, the perfect breeding ground for the antics of an organisation like Hades'.

For Worldbuilding flavor, this also implies that a good chunk of cities we see in Classic either don't exist in ND. OR they are MUCH smaller and barren in comparison.

PC talk & notable NPCs

While in Classic's setting we had PC with a bunch of R2F characters (as well as its Shoko's route alternative). In ND, it's a lot more straightforward. With the only PC being Tenma, and his only friend rival that turns antagonistic in Alone. Tenma's story is there to illustrate how in a way, he became the poster boy to promote and boost the League's image to the public (in order to help it establish itself in Sanctuary).

I have talked in another post- and I'm bringing it here. Meanwhile, Alone's entire character is corrupted by taking on Hades' sponsorship deal. Thus, becoming another pawn in Hades' schemes;

Sasha wouldn't be a playable character. She is meant to be the Chairwoman, in charge of organising and running the League. But PC and her would often run into one another, throughout the journey.

Talking about Suikyo, he is still kinda of an enigma to me. I still haven't come up with something for him but, he could be a notable character from Hades' squad. He'd still have his connections to Shion and Dohko so, his role could be to further illustrate Hades' coersion abilities, and how trainers would willingly join his organisation.

Odysseus takes on many roles at the same time, given the early stages the League finds itself. He isn't a professor per se, BUT PC would for sure get their starter pokemon from him. Odysseus also fills the role of a placeholder champion, until he is officially beaten by Alone, crowning him as the champion (that will be shortly after be defeated by PC). Odysseus is also the NPC that will take PC to be registered on the Hall of Fame.

Now the fun stuff in League members talk

The order wouldn't be the same one, we see in Classic's setting. I'm sacrificing the zodiacal order, if it means we get to highlight the most notable ND golds <3.

Gym leaders:

Gestalt: Galar - Flying - Skarmory

Cardinale: Kalos - Grass - Tsareena

Ox: Kanto - Normal - Taurus

Shion: Sinnoh - Dragon - Salamence

Mystoria: Hoenn - Water - Walrein

Dohko: Johto - Fighting - Mienshao

Izo: Sinnoh - Rock - Kleavor

Abel & Kain: Unova - Psychic - Gothitelle / Espathra

E4 members:

Écarlate: Paldea - Poison - Sneasler

Kaiser: Kanto - Fire - Pyroar

Deathtoll: Alola - Ghost - Cofagrigus

Shijima: Johto - Fairy - Flutter Mane

PC wouldn't really get to fight Odysseus so, his ace pokemon is kinda of up in the air to what it would be. I also feel like that he wouldn't have a type specialty. BUT it would probably either be Hisuian Braviary, OR Ursaluna.

And that's what I got so far!
