#i do also want you to imagine him treating his own pokemon more and more as he internally accepts he’s cares them

[thehappiestgolucky]

ooc: A moth in hisui is really funny, but what if dadkoth found an injured mon? Would he help it or would he just hand it to Professor Laventon to care for?

I’d say initially, he’d more likely simply give a simple brace to a pokemons injury and give it to Laventon to further inspect. Markoth is a cautionary, reclusive character, he’s just getting used to this new world and entirely new creatures.

Though I think further along he’ll more and more start treating the pokemon himself, since he has medical knowledge from being a warrior (obviously to treat his own wounds) - but if the injury is very bad or is a sickness he’d still give it to Laventon because he’s much more familiar with pokemon biology.

[shima-draws]

Okay so a few things about the ending to the DLC. Spoilers below obviously

-Really REALLY disappointed they didn’t go with the whole toxic possession arc thing with Kieran and the new mythical (Pecharunt?) TO BE FAIR that was more of a fan theory than anything but it was one that made a lot of sense and had a lot of evidence to back it up. I guess I got too attached to the idea and was inevitably let down when the game didn’t go in that direction. Still it would have made more sense to give that extra edge as to why Kieran’s treating everyone so awfully,, and having him finally break free of that control during the final fight VS Terapagos would have been SO sick. Either that or before we even get to Terapagos Carmine calls Kieran out and that’s when he finally fucking explodes and rages and vents about his inferiority complex—and THAT is what summons Pecharunt, those negative feelings that it probably feeds off of or smth idk. Then we’d get a split second of Kieran finally being back in control and begging for help. And then Carmine realizing her brother has been under the influence of this Pokemon the entire time and. Okay I’m getting off track into AU territory now lmao sorry moving on

-Switching back to the Terapagos fight, I really enjoyed it! It wasn’t too long of a fight to be drawn out, but it was just long enough that it didn’t feel anticlimactic (also the MUSIC? STELLAR. Pun intended). ALSO ARGHFHH the five stages of grief Kieran goes through in that fight to finally accepting that he’s been going about this the wrong way and has been an awful friend and the way the LIGHT COMES BACK INTO HIS EYES I ALMOST CRIED. This is 10000x more emotional and powerful if you choose to bring Ogerpon with you and fight with her bc that really just. Hammers in the fact that despite all the bad blood and bitterness, Kieran still chooses to fight alongside you and the Pokemon he coveted so much…AND he even processes things enough to fully let go of all his hatred and anger and allows you to catch Terapagos because he KNOWS you’ll take good care of it and after all this time he still trusts you even though he’d probably hate to admit it. #GOOD WRITING

-Something really scary I realized. Kieran brought a Master Ball with him to catch Terapagos. 1. Where did homie even get that. 2. The fact that he was READY and didn’t even give Terapagos a chance to react, that he was essentially catching it against its will (which probably led to its power going out of control), that he was enforcing his own twisted desires and beliefs onto it and not considering its feelings (sound familiar? Looks at Ogerpon). BOY. 3. We’ve only ever seen ONE other person use Master Balls in SV. The AI Professor. I don’t know if this is significant in any way but if the Pecharunt theory WAS true that would make them so so similar and that’s eerie to me. Two characters controlled by something greater than them that they can’t fight…can you imagine how INSANE the dynamics would be listen to me

-Another thing I was kinda disappointed about was Briar? I guess I was just picking up on the vibes that she was actually a villain and would try to steal Terapagos from the player, but I probably gave Nintendo too much credit on that one lol. I do like that she’s not inherently evil, she’s just too absorbed and obsessed with her research to really pay attention to what’s going on around her. BUT. They should have pushed that WAY further. Either commit and do the full villain arc where she snatches Terapagos from Kieran right after he catches it to use it for her own purposes, or pressure him into Terastallizing it so much that it makes him uncomfortable. I want to see Lusamine levels of unhinged obsession. What she had was just a little bit too excited about Area Zero, not a full blown unhealthy and dangerous thing that puts everyone around her in danger.

-Following up on that. Drayton. I kept expecting him to also go villain arc IDK LOL I guess I want everyone to be gay do crime in this DLC 😂 But I seriously kept thinking he was just using the player to knock Kieran off his throne so he could take it right back from us. But no he actually genuinely cared about Kieran and kept pressuring us to beat the Elite Four so WE could knock some sense into him since Drayton wasn’t strong enough to do it himself. Which is a very sweet sentiment, I think :’) But am I the only one who was like bro calm down right after the fight where he was getting up in Kieran’s face and calling him ex-champion…..either he’s way too honest and doesn’t realize he was being cruel OR he was doing it on purpose to be a silly goober (but everyone else was like DUDE. LOW blow.)

-I still have questions. HELLO. HELLO. The notes in Area Zero mentioned the professor meeting a child with a white(?) book? Is that the Scarlet/Violet book? We still don’t know how the whole time travel paradox happened and why Heath talked about meeting Paradox Pokemon DECADES before the professor even brought them to Area Zero through the time machine? What is with the weird ass crystal tree sitting in the middle of a lake in the depths? Is there any significance to the Crystal Pool in Kitakami being connected to terastallizing and Area Zero? I’M JUST. AGHHH. I’m fairly certain we’re getting more content, maybe an epilogue to the DLCs but I’m going CRAZY I NEED TO KNOW NOWWW

-Also isn’t Area Zero like. Top secret hush hush. Why did Geeta let Briar publish a whole ass book about the HIDDEN SECRET of Area Zero that was miles under a closed off SECRET lab. I thought they were denying Briar access to Area Zero for YEARS, probably because they didn’t want her blabbing to the public. Idk. Maybe my memory is fuzzy on that one. Just feels very contradictory fhhdd

-The small little subtleties of Kieran regaining his regular personality as we went down….I ADORED that. His little smiles and him unable to contain his childish excitement and Carmine smiling at him with a knowing look bc after all this time her brother is FINALLY acting more like himself. And Kieran trying to brush it off like “wh-whatever” like he’s some sort of edgy teenager pretending he doesn’t care. GAHHHH it was so cute I wanted to cry 😭

ALL IN ALL it didn’t QUITE meet my expectations but it was still really good, especially considering this was all DLC content. Nothing will ever EVER top the main story of SV but the entirety of TTM and TID came pretty darn close. Kieran my sweet baby boy my blorbo I’m so glad you got your redemption arc and that you finally came to terms with your perception of strength and how it affects others. Baller DLC Nintendo do it again 👏

[monkiesimp]

Anything hmm... how about this? Headcanons about Wukong and Macaque with a fem!S/O that got isekai'd from the Pokémon world! How would they react to a regular human mortal commanding powerful beasts who treats them like they were her family.

As for what Pokémon she has, I'll leave that up to you. Whatever sparks your imagination!

Bonus points if she acts like a mother-figure to MK while also making him picnic lunches for when he goes training.

Hope this will be fun for you to write! Thank you! 😊

Yup. This one's long so bear with me lol. I hope I did it right like you wanted

Wukong;

- Where. Were. You?

- All you remember was falling asleep with your Eevee next to you and then you're... Here?

- Luckily, your Eevee was still with you so you were not all that lonely.

- You wandered around this strange mountain, trying to figure out where you are and why your arms looked like a block and why THERE WERE NO WILD POKEMONS???

- And you ended up panicking when you realized you were trapped. How great.

- Luckily, you end up being found by Wukong who just happened to run into you

- He immediately got on defense mode because why would there be a stranger in his mountain unless they were looking for a fight?

- It did take a bit but he realized that you weren't a threat

- You explained your situation to him and the Monkey King listened closely, despite the far fetched story he seemed to believe your words.

- After the explanation he agreed to help you out and try to find your way back home

- He was honestly completely clueless as to what to do, so he just brought you somewhere else to chill and talk while you two think of a plan.

- When he first met you, he just wanted you off his mountain. But when talking with you and learning more about your world and you, he seemed to take a great appeal on you.

- Especially when you'd crack a joke, it made him laugh so hard

- You were also fascinated by how this world worked and that there are no Pokemons but instead demons.

- Talking with you never made Wukong this happy and it never made him laugh so hard, last time he laughed this good was when he was friends with Macaque and well... That was a long time ago.

- Before you knew it, it was already late and you two just wasted your time talking instead of figuring out a plan.

- Your Eevee was already asleep beside Wukong on his cloud and snuggled close to him, Wukong didn't seem to mind at all.

- Well, since you had nowhere to go now Wukong allowed you to stay at his place until you figured something out.

- Days and days passed, tho you enjoyed Wukong's company you eventually got bored sitting around and doing nothing, Wukong could tell by the way you seemed less and less cheerful each day

- You two still haven't figured out anything, because you didn't know how you got here in the first place. The best you could hope for was to go to sleep and wake up back in your realm.

- Wukong was a bit saddened that you were still worried about going home, he thought you liked it here and maybe would even consider staying with him ... But he should've guessed you probably have your own family and friends back home, you don't need him...

- To make it up to you, Wukong took you away to show you some places he knew of, he'd show you the Megapolis city too but you two never really went there because someone could recognize Wukong.

- Where you did stop though, was at a beautiful forest full of sunflowers.

- Seeing you so amazed by everything made Wukong happy, you looked so excited he couldn't help but be amused and tease you about it.

- Then, you don't know what happened, but as you two were talking you accidentally tripped and Wukong caught you

- Instead of letting you go and back away, he kept you in his arms

- The next thing you know, you two were reaching closer and closer to each other's face, looking at each other's eyes, then lips and eyes again...

- Just inches away from kissing, something made a crashing sound causing you two to get startled and snap out of the situation you were in

- You realized your Eevee was caught up in vines, and stuck, so you went to help him immediately, but also you were completely red by the whole situation.

- Wukong was red as well, he can't believe what he almost did. He just met you a few days ago, for god's sake!

- But his tail wagged happily when he looked back at that moment you two had just a second ago.

- Well, after that, as usual you hang out quite often.

- Wukong always cuddled you whenever he could, even if you met a few days ago he was quick to get affectionate with you and you didn't mind.

- But your Eevee was a bit jealous when Wukong wanted to cuddle with you instead of him.

- Your Eevee LOVED and adored Wukong, it's almost like Eevee loved him more than you 😭

- Then you met Mk.

- You two immediately bonded very well and Mk invited you to visit Megapolis with him so you don't get lost.

- Wukong allowed you to go but you could see he was a bit sad by it, so to make him feel better you kissed him on the cheek which did in fact, make him instantly happy, his tail wagging rapidly with a huge grin on his face.

- Going to the city with Mk was pretty nice, and you were very grateful for him for showing you around, you also met his friends! They're very nice and kind as well.

- Whenever Mk visited Flower Fruit Mountain, you'd always bake a peach cake or peach something (cause there were only peaches in this mountain) for both Wukong and Mk to feast on when they finished training.

- Wukong would eat way too much of those, he loved your cooking- especially if it included peaches in it

- When Wukong left you all alone on the Flower Fruit Mountain, he said he'd by away for a few days- and more importantly, away from Mk too, you weren't happy but respected his choice but didn't argue.

- After you found out about everything and where Wukong really was? Oh, boy, you were FURIOUS that he left Mk like that with such a stupid reason and you two had a serious talk.

- At least everything was alright after that.

- Then finally, after about two months figured out a way to go back to your home!

- Wukong was happy for you but he also felt deep loneliness and hurt in his heart, he didn't want you to leave.

- After thinking you left, he just went back to the Flower Fruit Mountain. The monkeys around noticed the sudden change in their King's mood and knew what happened.

- Wukong just sat on the tree in silence, he felt his heart empty as it usually was before he met you. He knew it would hurt yet he opened himself to you.

- After a few minutes, Wukong was surprised to hear you calling out his name and he immediately jumped down from the tree.

- "What happened? Did something go wrong?" Wukong was immediately confused and concerned as to why you were still here, Eevee was on your shoulder too.

- After you explained to him you wanted to stay with him, he was SO FREAKING HAPPY

- He hugged you so tightly and spun you around, which caused you to let out a laugh, you weren't expecting that

- And what you weren't expecting more was for Wukong to kiss you on your lips once he put you down on your feet, he still held you close to him.

- That night was beautiful and probably a moment that will forever stay in your memory and make you smile when you look back at it.

Macaque;

- Umbreon? I know, I'm very uncreative.

- When you found yourself in a different world, you immediately began to explore with your Umbreon close by you.

- You could only guess you somehow ended up in a different realm, but you weren't sure exactly how that happened.

- A lot of people around looked at you and your pokemon weirdly as you passed. You ignored their looks of course.

- Honestly you'd probably be wandering around for a few days until you met Macaque.

- It was by accident, you accidentally bumped into him once and when he saw you again a few days later, he did get a bit curious.

- Especially that weird looking creature with you, he could probably take it away from you and figure out how that thing works.

- So, first thing he did was meet you.

- You didn't trust him at first but after a few hours you explained that you weren't from this world.

- Macaque thought you were joking but when you explained everything to him he was a bit shocked and silent.

- He agreed to let you stay with him since he saw you had nowhere to go.

- Mostly he wasn't at the dojo, he'd be somewhere wandering around and hiding in the shadows.

- You didn't mind, you and Umbreon were still trying to figure out a plan of how to return home.

- When Macaque one night arrived injured, you were completely shocked and slightly concerned.

- Macaque thought you'd be sleeping right now so that's why he returned at night, but unfortunately he was wrong.

- He tried to tell he was okay and refused to let you bandage him up, but you weren't letting the topic go so he snapped at you.

- What he wasn't expecting was for you to snap back at him and pull him to the bathroom by his scarf.

- He couldn't do anything but let you bandage him up, he wasn't expecting for you to shout back at him and honestly he was a little impressed.

- But what he didn't understand more is why you were helping him with his injuries.

- When he asked you why, you replied "You let me stay here, and I want to return the favor. Even if it's something small like helping you with your injuries I'll do it. Plus, you shouldn't leave yourself to bleed like that, if you need me to help I will."

- And oh, god, the soft look you gave him caused him to have butterflies in his stomach and his mouth immediately closed before he could respond, his cheeks warm.

- That was the night he caught feelings for you, only he didn't realize it yet.

- Honestly, he was planning to bandage himself without you knowing or looking, but after that incident, every time he got in a fight and was injured he would let you bandage him.

- Of course, he knew how to treat his own wounds, that was just a excuse so he could be closer to you.

- And you definitely knew it but kept quiet about it.

- Macaque was originally going to steal your pet away from you but after spending some time with you and the way you'd do small gestures, whenever that be placing your hand on his shoulder he couldn't bring himself to do it.

- Your pet was weak anyway to be honest, and useless to him.

- So yes, he actually decided to help you and he'd stay with you up at night to figure out a plan with you.

- But due to that, he wasn't sleeping and you noticed by the way he seemed more sluggish than usual when you weren't looking and by the dark circles under his eyes.

- You'd usher him to bed despite his protests, and watch over him until he fell asleep.

- When he fell asleep, you started to read a book with Umbreon on your lap who was also taking a nap, but then you heard a whine.

- You looked down, it wasn't Umbreon, he was snoring quietly.

- But when you looked at Macaque, you realized his body was tense and his eyebrows were furrowed as he grunted, you could tell he was having a nightmare.

- You put Umbreon away and let him sleep on the chair while you hesitantly walked over to Macaque, you didn't want to wake him up since he just fell asleep after 30 minutes or so.

- Instead, you placed your hand on top of his in hopes it would soothe him.

- What you weren't expecting was for Macaque to grab your wrist and pull you harshy towards him until you were laying on top of him while he was hugging you.

- You were completely stunned, but he seemed to finally have calmed down and had a much more relaxing look on his face so it was worth it.

- After a few unsuccessful attempts of trying to escape his grip, you gave up and eventually fell asleep too.

- Oh boy, when macaque woke up he was blushing like crazy when he saw that he was holding you in his arms

- After that none of you address what happened and pretend like you never cuddled in the first place.

- You two spend a lot of nights together, Macaque would be close by your side and rest his head on your shoulder while you two looked through books to find something useful.

- Simple acts like that would end up being much more as days come and go, he'd be very hesitant but he'd wrap his tail around you too, and you'd rest your head on top of his. He did fall asleep like that once.

- He was so desperately touch starved but also didn't want to make the first move to hug you so you'd do it for him.

- After about a few months, you end up finding a way home and Macaque is really happy for you! Or so you thought, he's a good actor and he only pretended to be happy for your sake.

- You couldn't help but feel sad though, right as you were about to leave you hesitated and realized you wanted to stay here.

- Umbreon agreed to be with you too, he was taking a liking in Macaque as well.

- When you arrived back at the dojo, you immediately hugged Macaque leaving him stunned.

- You explained the situation and that you wanted to stay with him.

- Macaque was happy by it, though a sly grin was on his face, he truly was happy on the inside.

- What you weren't expecting was for Macaque to kiss you.

- You kissed him back of course, but the kiss grew heated and the next thing you know your back is pressed against the wall with your hands and legs wrapped around him while you two make out.

- Needless to say, you had a pretty... Memorable night you'd never forget.

S o b

I don't think I'm doing this right, it's like I'm writing a scenario, not a headcanon 😭

It's 2.4k words long 💀

[coldslaws]

Wish I could send videos in asks but unfortunately ✨I can't✨ so just look up "N Harmonia" in the search engine and look at recent, it should be there

As an apology, take a look at this beta post of Ghetsis, interesting ain't it?

-💌

I THINK I FOUND IT. OUHHH THE EYES FRAMW </3 im exploding i need to draw more bn so bad. my fucked up sad little guy. he needs a kiss. it was certainly An Experience to search "n pokemon" and go by most recent and see mostly my own content. i have a problem

also what the fuck. that's crazy. idk how i feel about sincere ghetsis he sounds almost a little more unhinged . do you think something happened to him.. is he still an abusive pos towards n or was there a point in development where his manipulation was less carrot-and-stick emphasis on stick and more carrot-and-stick emphasis on carrot. or all carrot. enticing n through promises of a better world and "kind" treatment. i guess we never truly see (unless im wrong) how ghetsis actually raised n (except like a couple snapshots in the anime, where n actively looks uncomfortable or scared around him as a child, and a few panels in pokespe, where hes passively observing n at a cold distance), we mostly see how he treats n once n fails and stops being useful to him... hmm. granted, i have a really hard time imagining that ghetsis goes from treating n decently to calling her names and, in the case of pokespe and some of the anime iirc, getting physically violent if not outright trying to kill her the MOMENT she fucks up in his eyes. like surely there was some mistreatment before this point, aside from just n's room situation. so basically what im getting at is, is this build's ghetsis better to n? or is he just so delusional he's calling someone he actively abused for years an evildoer? i guess it's actually not all that uncommon for abusers to call their victims the evil or unhinged ones

side note relating back to the beta intro: i REALLY wanna know what they had in mind when originally designing n and they gave him all those scars, because it looks like at that point in the world building process, ghetsis didn't have his messed up arm or ambiguously hidden eye yet. like they took the injury off n and handed it to ghetsis. why. in my beta au, ghetsis still has his injuries, and he was so spiteful of n denying him that he saw fit to recreate what happened to him on n's body. but clearly that doesn't apply to the actual beta builds in which ghetsis is unscarred.... so i wonder what they planned to have happened to n. reshiram/zekrom/wild pkm? still ghetsis somehow? another shitty human? unrelated? no plan, they just wanted to make n look more intimidating with the scarring? idk! AND I WANT TO

anyways that's this morning's mad ramblings

Related to your DBZ/Pokémon series, what Pokémon would Chichi, Bulma and the others have?

Ooh oh, ok, so I already have pokemons picked for Bulma! :D She has a Slowking, Snubbull, and Margnezone! Slowking is known to be as smart as some world-famous scientists, and Bulma really is smart when she works on a project. Magnezone I picked it because it looked very mechanical, I liked the idea of it matching her tinkering side, and I imagined that she would try to mod it. It's also used as a generator in case of a power outage. Snubbull is a pokemon who barks a lot but is really kind of cowardly, but it also loves its trainer very much, and I thought this matched parts of her personality! We've often seen Bulma being all bark but then hiding behind the Z fighters, and I believe she genuinely cares about everyone.

Capsule Corps also owns the market on pokeballs. The technology is similar to capsules, so they invented them too. Bulma's working on a prototype for a master ball. Her dad has a collection of ancient pokemons roaming the interior gardens instead of dinosaurs. I haven't seriously thought about anything for Chichi yet, but she would most likely have pokemons who help her around her daily life. She would definitely have one or more milktanks. Raditz has a Heracross because of the whole thing with him playing with beetles as a kid in the manga. She's very shy and has a messed up wing, so she's can't fly. He has a Jolteon because, of course, it's spiky, but it also goes well with his electric personality, although that's more of a HC with him since we don't get to see Raditz a lot in the anime. He's also got a Sandslash because I thought it visually fit him.

Gohan is 100% a pokemon professor! If I had to pick a pokemon for him, it would be Infernape who has the potential to enter a rage-like state and tremendously increase its power. (it did in the anime and I really liked that) Everyone's favourite green dad, Piccolo, owns and works at the pokemon daycare centre. Frieza seeks powerful pokemons to add to his forces. He owns a mew, mewtwo, mewtwo X, mewtwo Y and a shiny mewtwo who's actually a ditto. And yes, together they do the Ginyu pose. Vegeta's pokemon represent parts of who he is. His Primeape is his rage and fury. Mega Lucario is his Pride. Luxray is his asshole side, for lack of a better word. Also, it has the same colour scheme and hair as Vegeta in his Saiyan attire, and shiny Luxray is golden like a Super Saiyan, so it just felt right. Goku's pokemons are meant to be more related to him. His Arcanine is his strongest pokemon, and in the early pokedex entries, it was treated as a Legendary creature. As a Growlithe, she wanted to grow and become stronger because of her drive to fight strong opponents. His Aipom is for his silly side (also, I wanted him to have a monkey), and it has attacks that a younger Goku would have used like tickle and sand-attack. And his Bidoof, let's be real, Goku is a himbo; there's no question about that. Goku's Bidoof comes from Piccolo's daycare centre. It was born there and abandoned by its previous trainer. Goku wouldn't like a weak pokemon but he saw in this little bidoof a drive to fight, and he took a liking to him! Along the way, Goku lost his pokeball, so it lives forever by his side like Ash's Pikachu. Goku has no idea that, through breeding, Bidoof actually knows some killer moves like double-edge and skull bash, so he keeps on using tackle instead.

I included everything I've ever drawn for this AU!! It's been dormant for years, but it still means so much to me, so THANK YOU FOR ASKING! <3 <3 <3

Aim to be a Pokemon Master! Episode 4: Bearing Down Easy!

Okay so I’m gonna say right away that this is my favorite miniseries episode ever and it’s entirely for biased reasons LMAO

I mean, the actual plot is great too, that’s also why it’s high up. Like I said before, I’m a sucker for large creatures that can’t control their strength that just wanna make friends. It always gets to me. The Beartic in this episode is sweet and I really felt for it here, especially when the forest Pokemon rejected it. I always figured it was a recently evolved Cubchoo that didn’t know why it was suddenly so strong or why it’s friends were scared of it :(

But then we get into the real reason I adore this episode: it is a big fat groveling apology to Ash’s Oshawott for the mean-spirited way he got treated in Best Wishes.

Before this rewatch, I was kinda doubting myself on Oshawott’s initial treatment by the writing team because I was a sensitive kid who got upset at tv kinda easily. Like if a character was made fun of, I would turn off the tv. So I was wondering if I exaggerated just how poorly Oshawott got treated…. and then I got to BW and they called Oshawott a useless throwaway in the Unova League climax so yeah I got my answer. If they didn’t hate the little baby otter, they at least had a lot of disdain for the little baby otter. After the halfway mark, they stopped giving Oshawott even a little bit of credit and just treated him like a punching bag to be grimaced at or mocked. Most of the time he’s onscreen, he’s being cringed at or bullied or brutally defeated or mocked. And yeah, he was full of himself and snobby, but the punishment always felt overly disproportionate to me. It kinda spilled over to public opinion too. Like I’d have people telling me as a kid that I was stupid for liking Oshawott because “it’s stupid in the anime”. It was kiiiinda like the Popplio hate train people rode when gen 7 was being rolled out, except official media was also encouraging it. Cool.

So as you can imagine, it was cathartic for me to watch an episode where Ash’s Oshawott is present for the whole thing and everyone basically gushes over how cute and cool he is, to the point that he basically resolves the whole plot by telling Beartic to model itself after him by making its own scalchop, and then everyone is like “Omg!! Beartic is so cool, we want a scalchop too!!!”

Like…. it’s simple, but it felt pretty damn great when this episode aired. It’s like a part of my inner child is healing. Getting to see them speak the truth: Oshawott is fucking awesome and we should all be more like him.

And they also do this without losing Oshawott’s original personality too!! Well, it is kinda toned down, but Oshawott is still proud, yet a goober. He still loses his scalchop and he still gets caught up in the slapstick, and he still thinks he’s the coolest guy in the room despite it all. But rather than making him into cringe comedy, they lean into it and just let him be a part of the episode without shitting on him every five seconds. Like fuck yeah Oshawott IS cool!!!!!!!!!! I love you Oshawott I love you so much I’m so happy that you got an episode that finally realized how awesome you are.

A+ episode and it’s going straight to the top for ME!!!!!

[charcadett]

Hi it’s the Splatoon crossover anon! Honestly when I saw that ur requests were closed I was 100% willing to wait until they were opened back up again lol

Anyways, I mostly wanna see Kofu, Ryme, Grusha, and Jacq in these headcanons but if you think any other characters would have interesting interactions feel free to add them!

Sooo for the request, how about these characters meeting a small fry/lil’ buddy! It doesn’t have to be new Agent 3’s little small fry, you can do an entirely diff one if you want them to keep them hehe. Salmonids are sentient and have a whole culture and make their own music so don’t treat them as a pet :0 Also this small fry would pretty much be separated from their tribe so they’d probably follow the mentioned characters around since they’d be the closest thing to family

I can imagine all the silly little stuff that can happen!! Like small fry sitting in Kofu’s apron pockets or in Grusha’s scarf and singing along with Ryme!! And accidentally falling off a ledge lol. Salmonids were on the team chaos side sooo.. would love to see a lil chaos hehe

Okay I am going off of incredibly bare minimum knowledge here so Splatoon fans please forgive anything wrong lore wise. All I know is damn those squids can sing. Really hope you enjoy this anon! Crossover fans stick together :D

Splatoon & Pokemon SV Crossover: Jacq, Ryme, Kofu, and Grusha befriend a Smallfry Salmonid!

- At first, all four of them mistake the lost Smallfry for a new Pokemon. They look like one, and their little gurgles can easily be mistaken for a cry if one isn't familiar with the Inkling language. Jacq is the first of the four to realize that what he has following him around like a lost Fidough is not a Pokemon but an entirely new being all together. It’s unsurprising, considering his scientific background. His first concern is communication. Neither party seems to understand the other well, though there are some words he recognizes mixed in with Smallfry’s gibberish. During his classes, they float around him, happily mimicking his tone with their bubbling vocalizations. If you’re a student in Jacq’s class, you quickly have to become accustomed to your supplies going missing. The little Smallfry has a hidden collection going on.

- Ryme is the second fastest to discover this. She rescued the shivering Smallfry from a snow drift a week ago, and they’ve been following her around ever since. When she tried to use a Pokeball on them, it clattered to the ground, completely useless. Both she and the Smallfry stared at the object in confusion. Inevitably, she accepts this as is with little question. She particularly loves when they rap along with her, but when they sing songs from Salmonid bands, she’s fascinated. Ryme can’t help but take inspiration for her own music, the Smallfry on stage settled on her shoulder, singing along with her.

- Kofu has experience with Water-types, and Smallfry is like no Water-type he has ever seen. He’s also never seen any Pokemon wield a spoon like it’s a blunt-force weapon before either. He takes Smallfry's existence in stride and with no questions. Guess he has a weird li’l fish kid to take care of now, not that he minds. Settled in the pocket of Kofu’s apron, the Smallfry watches him fry up food for his restaurant patrons with rapt attention. Because of being separated from their school, the Smallfry has an appetite of a full-grown man. Kofu is up to the challenge, always coming up with some delicious meal for his favorite little guy.

- It takes Grusha a bonk on the head to pick up on it. He can be a bit thick. The Smallfry still takes to him all the same once they get a little bit more respect, and if there’s one thing Grusha can empathize with, it’s feeling lonely. He knows that expression all too well, no matter what face it’s on. Yeah, he has friends, but it gets lonely at the top of a mountain. He learns how to communicate decently with the Smallfry, paying close attention to their expressions and body language. Though, it’s still a bit harder than he’s used to. Maybe if he was a Water-type specialist and worked with more fish-shaped Pokemon, he’d have a better hang of it. For now, he’s going off of a mix of humans and what he’s seen from his Cetoddle to decipher what the Smallfry is trying to say. Whenever he goes out, he’s sure to bundle them up as much as possible. They practically look like a little ball of fabric more than a Salmonid.

Also YESSSS our manifestations pulling through again!! I’m lowk so shocked they’re on the cover I would’ve expected Shidou and Aiku or something but I’m CERTAINLY not complaining….we’re basically guaranteed tabieita crumbs then everyone cheer I can’t wait to get my hands on it

But to reference your replies to Jeirin I saw in passing SHSJSH no YOURE the goat!!! But fear not I will be translating the minute I get my hands on it I’m actually so excited to read it!!!!! I’m still never getting over all the typos I left in the light novels like idk how you got through that I barely understood what I said myself LMAOOO safe to say I WILL be proofreading before sending it in this time

Also if you’re seeing this too Jeirin you’re too sweet AHJJSK ok but fr don’t be shy if either of you ever want something translated just holler I usually end up seeing your posts either in my feed while scrolling or while digging for my own asks LMAOO

Ok but back to our main quest convo

LMAOO Karasu having his team z moment when they were betrayed by kuon except it’s reader /j

SHSHSHS looking forward to the next flashback reunion my eyes definitely aren’t sweating

HAHAHA REAL it’s a core part of who he is wait im laughing zantetsu having his keystone in his glasses but inside of practically like Maxie’s is on the side imagine he chooses a dumbass move and puts it on the nose bridge so he can strike a cool pose pushing his glasses up while he activates the mega evolution process LMAOOOOOOO WAIT otoya zantetsu interaction did happen in epinagi!!!! When karasus team provokes the team saying their faces look weak (i think it might’ve been himizu but Karasu says they might cry first” zantetsu can only think of saying “you wanna square up bro??” As a come back and gets all up in otoyas face (do you remember that one panel where otoyas leaning backwards while zantetsu screams at him because it’s that one LOL) the idiot x idiot chemical reaction always hits too hard Reo and Karasu having to save their asses so real

Imagine Tullia and Karasu treating reader and otoya like noobs LMAOAO I love the idea of reader and otoya progressing together though it’s also funny to think about otoya tweaking over reader getting his dream team in terms of cool vibes

THE BAROUKIN TAG HAS ME GONE NOOOO DONT PULL A BAROU ON US ok anyways this is fr too funny I can’t wait for this arc

I was gonna say I kinda prefer having more megas LMAO just forgot if they ever stayed a canon reason for that restriction but the mega gyarados adds another layer to the ‘scary to everyone else but a puppy dog to reader trope’ and I love it!! Certainly doesn’t need the power buff but the extra aura enhancement would be funny LOL Maybe the keystone thing is like it has to activate/sync with the Pokémon’s specific stone so it can’t do two at once or something? Kinda like it’s still “running/on” while the active pokemon is in mega form maybe but yeah I’m sure you’ll figure something out LMAO

SHSHSH FR like I won’t bash anyone who enjoys it but ME PERSONALLY?? Nuh uh I’ll pass thank you…(also yeah me neither I always get jumpscared by it in the tags HAHA there’s lowk so many floating around though)

LAZYTOWN MENTION SHDBSJDJS WAIT WHY ARE YOU COOKING AGAIN??? This is too funny ego as Robbie rotten too HAHAHA imagine Rin as stingy and is chigiri automatically Stephanie because of the hair LMAOO

Wait also my memory’s blanking again if I don’t have any other ask in your box replying to our other convo lmk I hope that’s not the case because I deleted what I wrote already er

- Karasu anon

BRO i am so glad it wasn’t any of the other more popular characters SKDJFHS tabieita fr cancelling out the itoshis we love that for them my goats fr

AHAH my translation goat i will be relying on you like always!! and trust your translations are better than the ones i see on tik tok so it’s all good

WAIT YEAH i forgot about that KSLJDHF so basically otoya x zantetsu crossover is already established okay that’s perfect LMAOAO PLEASEEE he would have the mega stone right on the bridge of his glasses and reo makes sm fun of it and he’s just like “nah you don’t understand the vision” meanwhile nagi’s like “yukimiya moment??” nobody understands the meme (including himself tbh) he’s just breaking the fourth wall a bit…okay wait but imagine a double battle and it’s reo and karasu vs otoya and zantetsu ykw the insane thing is like otoya and zantetsu might manage to pull it off KSJHSD like if he throws out abomasnow, otoya picks ninetales, karasu uses garchomp, and reo uses maile…ninetales can take care of mawile easily and it has flash fire like houndour/houndoom so it can tank garchomp’s fire attacks while abomasnow uses blizzard or smth since garchomp is 4x weak to ice HAHAHA wait that’s actually lowkey insane i bet karasu and reo go crying to reader/nagi and they have to whip out gyarados and arcanine to deal with things

otoya and reader are so problematic cousins coded HAHA like in a sense tullia and karasu are kind of like the wise older siblings because they’re a lot more experienced whereas otoya and reader are just up to nonsense CONSISTENTLY also wait that’s so true i always think it’s funny how nagi and reader have opposite-vibe teams but at least arcanine and reuniclus are kinda intimidating/goodra is a pseudo legendary so he’s on the same level in that sense meanwhile otoya truly has NOTHING like my man is seething every time she makes a catch

yeahhh i’m sure i’ll be able to figure smth out!! i’m also lowkey considering whether i want other people to be able to mega evolve their pokémon or not becuase reo has gallade and mawile plus karasu has garchomp and pidgeot and otoya has ampharos and i’m sure there’s more characters so i’ll def have to think if i want it to be smth super rare and exclusive to reader and houndoom or not

LAZYTOWN IS SO PERFECT IT JUST CAME TO ME IN A VISION???? ego gives robbie rotten lowkey HEAVY and kunigami is so sportacus it’s insane…help chigiri as stephanie has me crying though LSDKFJH you’re lowkey right though 😭

yes you did send smth dw i think i answered it already!!

If it comes to Maximilian in my Elite Trainer AU.

He's the only one in the Pokemon au that is sorted into a dorm yet...

He's looked down upon by the fae students and I'm guessing that a majority of Diasomnia students are fae apart from Silver who is an exception.

Maximilian is a good strategist and has had his fair encounter with unpleasant people but being in a different world where everything is unfamiliar he's bound to break at some point.

If Soni ever met him she'd probably tell Sebek off just because he's magicless yet gets to be in Diasomnia be uase of his Pokemon. Crowley doesn't get seismic tossed in this au. The only time he was safe.

Also him being a successor for Agatha of the Elite 4, she'd want to test his might. He specializes in Normal types which is a type that not many would pick since some think that they aren't that strong.

Crowley narrowly escaped being thrown into outer space- narrowly.

Seeing Maximillian being unhappy in his dorm makes Soni think it was a good thing that she wasn't sorted into any dorm. Granted, that led to Crowley pushing shit onto her as a way to avoid dealing with it himself, but that's beside the point.

For that reason, Soni would try to make Ramshackle more inhabitable for the sake of giving Maximillian his own space away from Diasomnia. She would clean up probably the living area (for the Pokemon to chill in) and an extra room for herself to stay in for the duration of her stay.

Sure, it might be seen as excessive, but the way that the Diasomnia students react toward Max, that only reminds her of how the public (nobles, Diantha's fans, etc.) reacted to Soni when she took the Championship title.

Sebek in this universe is going to be yelled at extensively by Soni, chewing him out for those very reasons.

"Why is it that you pursue that line of thinking that being Magicless means you're ultimately useless in everything? That's the peak of arrogance if I've ever seen it. If creatures like these Pokemon can do your jobs while being much more pleasant, then I don't know why there aren't any more people choosing Pokemon over magic." Soni sighs, turning to the other Pokemon Trainer and ignoring the sputtering green-haired first year. "I swear this world is backwards, right Max?"

Part of me thinks that Sebek wants to challenge her to a fight and does that for the duration of her time there. Soni doesn't mind because her universe's Sebek often fought with a Swanna. Soni unknowingly calling herself Swanna's replacement in this universe lol

I'm not entirely sure how Maximillian would react to that knowledge when Soni tells him that 😅 Probably anime sweatdrop?

Oooh, Soni challenging Max to a Pokemon Battle 👀

Normal types have no advantage against other types but have one weakness: Fighting. Not to mention their versatility in Move Pools and how they can fit certain roles, Soni would be impressed by that line of thinking and wishes him good luck.

It's an intense battle for sure, but Soni's not a Champion for nothing.

I'd like to imagine that they have battles to figure out combinations, consequently scaring the crap out of everyone else in the area lol

Soni would treat him to Pokemon World-based cuisines to help with his homesickness. He might not show it, but it does get lonely in Twisted Wonderland.

Max's Porygon2 would be thrilled with the food, I'm sure of it 😂

[bluemoondust]

The only fandom I am familiar here is Pokémon.

The ones that I can handle pretty well:

Professor Sycamore

Professor Elm

N Harmonia

I imagine them to be really soft and would be distressed, if their darling was upset for whatever cause. Owing to that reason, they can be easily manipulated.

These ones are the ones I am personally and reasonably terrified of:

Ghetsis (Needs no introduction.)

Colress (To be more specific, the pokemon adventures iteration of him. Considering he was willing to go as far as freezing cities, murder children, and experiment on animals for the selfish sake of his own scientific curiosity. His game counterpart is saint compared to him. Now imagine that version as a yandere, that's a yikes from me.)

Lusamine (Sun/moon version, to be more specific.)

Assuming their darling can escape them in the first place, they will never be the same person that they used to be prior from their kidnapping. That's equally terrifying as it is horrible considering their identity as a person is beyond gone and replaced with yanderes ideal one.

And for them to heal would take years and with extensive support, before they show any signs of progress. Due to the brainwashing and conditions those horrible people have subjected their darling to. Sorry peeps. But, I'd rather keep my personal agency, autonomy, and my self of identity intact.

On another note, I just want to thank you personally. Your blog inspired me to create my own, so do not let the haters get to you. Also, I am the elusive robot anon.

Toodles, have a good day.😊

Oh!!!! :0 Hello there robot anon! I hope you're doing well and I feel honored that I inspired you to create your blog!

I surprisingly haven't gotten any hate on here (I don't post on the main tags of the fandoms I write for so maybe that's why), but I know it'll eventually come, oof—

OH GOODNESS POKESPE COLRESS

There are other manga characters that come to mind who are worse than their game counterparts when it comes to being a yandere (looking straight at Lance) and Colress' manga counterpart is just the worst for the very reasons you stated. At least his game counterpart is considerate of his darling.

Also, I completely agree with Elm, N, and Sycamore being the type of yandere to be easily manipulated. Elm has this riddling guilt to him and feels like he owes his darling. You could simply guilt trip him into doing things for you. Sycamore is just... Lovesick. A hopeless romantic, you could say. He wants you to be happy at all times and just hates seeing you upset. Then there's N. He's touch starved and is willing to do anything for a chance to be close to his darling. Plus, he's also delusional. I will say though... He's a big improvement from Ghetsis despite being semi raised by him.

If I were to make a tier list for who'd be the worst yanderes to deal with out of the pokevillains, Ghetsis and Lusamine would be at the top. As you mentioned, they are the type of yanderes who, if you refuse to meet their standards, they'll make you by any means. They treat their darling more like a possession than anything.

[thrndlngs]

hey rose! (can i call you that?? sorry if that's not your preference) i may or may not have caught a case of crazy phat mad feelings for a boy and i was wondering if you had any cute headcanons about some of the MHA boys pining for a pretty fem reader?? i can't imagine this guy liking me back but i figure hey, if nobody got me ik pretty superhero boys got me AMEN lmbo no pressure on this request. hope you're doing well and things are okay in your world!! thanks love you!! first anon OUT 😌✌️✨💖

omg ya that’s totally cool!! i actually like that!!!! but omg, pls! i’m sure it’ll work out if not... hopefully these headcanons will help u out!!! LOVE U FIRST ANON!!!!!!!!

IZUKU MIDORIYA, 

will definitely stare at the back of your head during class and imagine 700 different scenarios that could ‘possibly’ happen if the two of you ever have a conversation that doesn’t involve school.

keeps note of your quirks and tries to give you pointers on how to use ur quirk via crumpled paper airplanes in the courtyard or slipped into ur locker.

will always, always, always keep an eye out for you to make sure you’re okay - if he sees you crying he’s gonna embarrass himself and be like, “you think that’s bad? kachan almost blew me to bits.” and now the both of you are crying.

daydreams about u.

whenever the class is training at the USJ or anywhere really, he’s bouncing. like. literally bouncing on his heels in case something goes wrong, he wants to be able to intervene. not because he thinks you’re not capable of fending for urself but it’s because he literally can not bare the thought of u getting hurt.

he definitely draws ur names with a heart and arrow through it!!!!!!!

really admires u and tries to be really nonchalant about how fond he’s become of u so when the two of you do have a conversation it’s just like... gibberish. you know when he goes on those little rants and the words cloud around him and everyone is like??? midoriya wtf. yeah like that.

BAKUGOU KATSUKI,

explosive boy definitely doesn’t know he likes you until he goes to recovery girl and recovery girl has to explain him the ‘weird’ feeling in his stomach, the rise of temperature in his face and the quickening of his pulse is literally because he has a crush. on you.

and boy does this raging blonde flip his shit. him?? have a crush??? when he’s trying to be number one hero??? a distraction??? not in this lobby.

easier said than done.

tries to avoid you at all costs. like even moves his seat permanently so he doesn’t have to breathe the same air as you.

no because during a training the two of you are teamed up and this man literally holds his breath like he’s five because he doesn’t want to inhale your ‘germs’. but he grows up a bit and realizes that you’re actually pretty strong and can handle your own. heavy emphasis on the pretty. 

so not only is he pinning for you but now he sees you as competition. so the initial plan to avoid you goes out of the window because he wants to one up you.

bakugou’s face is tomato red everytime the two of you spar and you think it’s because he’s mad but jokes on u.

takes a HOT minute but he’ll suffer in silence and just y’know open the door and wait five minutes for you to walk through it and then complain after. 

sees you in the hallway and flicks you in the forehead and reminds you that he’s going to be number one. but later beats himself up because wtf? why didn’t he say something else.

will go out of his way to fix your fighting stances and then have a coughing fit. so he’s going to push through his feelings but it’s really obvious to everyone else that he isn’t being lowkey, yknow?

IIDA TENYA,

my favorite class rep. he’s going to be so obvious about it. like. he’s an open book.

will offer to help you study. makes sure your chair is pulled out every morning so you don’t have to do it.

will also let you board the bus first.

will also tense up whenever you look at him. holds an emergency class meeting (excluding you) to figure out how to handle this ‘situation’ and everyone is like... dude

he takes kirishima’s ‘show her you’re a manly man’ to serious and tries to show off. with his grades, quirk and his class rep status which you know isn’t working so he’s back to square one. 

as bad as it sounds he makes a copy of all of his notes and color codes them based off of his you know ‘coding’ system and has it handy in case you don’t come to class one day or fall behind.

everyone knows but you. everyone also thinks that you would’ve found out by now since iida holds you on your own pedestal but! LOLKDSAJ

DENKI KAMINARI,

okay so.... this man... is so drama. he’s a clutz and obvious but he isn’t going to be direct. whether it’s because he’s scared of being rejected or because he’s not confident enough like bakugou and todoroki is unknown but anywayz

leans on the locker and tries to woo you with some words and falls. literally falls over. it’s okay though (in his eyes) because you immediately get eye level with him and try to check on him. it’s a win in his eyes.

is totally okay with the nickname ‘calamari’ but only likes it when you call him that. he tries to tell everyone that it’s a ‘you and him’ thing and gets teased abt it.

tries to include you in every conversation possible. he wants you to feel included in everything.

thinks ur like a walking goddess and that u should be treated as such.

he gets a little to excited around you so whenever the two of you touch he gives off some electricity and immediately goes on a thirty minute rant on how sorry he is.

makes you... a fucking... mixtape... with scribbled out hearts on the cover.

also... sends you songs to listen to but it’ll be like some random edm song and ur like”oh wow... love that...” and he’s like “ok cross that out she doesn’t like EDM.” and is DETERMINED to find out your favorite genre so the two of you have something to bond over.

changes your ringtone on his phone to the pokemon theme song because and i quote, “she’s the ash to my pikachu.”

isn’t so lowkey about his crush but??? everyone thinks he’s like?? just being himself?? so??? 

EIJIRO KIRISHIMA,

 bro. this man... THIS LOVELY SHARK BOY. 

is literally textbook definition of GENTLEMAN.

will not act on his feelings until YOU act on them because he’s scared he’ll overstep so he’s going to be like..... suffering in silence. but he doesn’t mind!!!!!!

holds the door 4 u. :)

checks on u 24/7.

stares at you in class and drools. 

walks with you like everywhere. literally. like to class, to the dorms, back to ur parents, to the mall. everywhere.

this is totally a best friend to lovers trope.

whenever he’s got doubt he will turn to u immediately because he trusts u and ur guidance. 

will even ask if u could spar with him (so you can a, spend time with him but b, because he wants u to be able to be the best version of urself u can be). 

whenever something goes south he will put his hand out in front of u. always. and you’ll wrap your fingers around his bicep and he will melt.

i think he knows he’s like... fucked because you explain to him that although his ‘hardening’ quirk makes his skin... rough, he’s still pretty soft. and smells nice.

man... that gets him THROUGH THE DAYS.

TODOROKI SHOTO,

another clueless boy. 

is very confused at first but after some hours of research he’s like oh. 

and then shit hits the fan.

like kirishima, really values your input and actually goes to you for advice for two reasons: one because you’re sensible and honest but it’s more for the simple reason that he’s trying to see what you like and don’t like.

you start to notice some changes in his behavior. not drastic ones but enough to raise an eyebrow.

is more vocal in his conversations with you.

tries his best to improve his body language (ie: will face you with undivided attention and arms unfolded to look more receptive) 

just stares at you in general to see what your reactions to things are.

like, in the hallway when ur talking to mina and the lowerclassmen says something stupid and the two of you scowl? well, guess what? now he doesn’t like that guy either and will give him a piece of his mind.

has your coffee order memorized so when ur staying up all night studying u have the energy to do so.

will sneak a protein bar and a water bottle in ur locker the day after those binge studying sessions to ensure that you’re you know okay.

[ultraericthered]

PREFACE: I am a Volo fan too and also believe he has more nuance to his character than some fans might be willing to see in him. That said, I don't do any blorbofication or babygirling of the character, as that tilts things too far in the other direction from seeing only the evil in him. Volo exists in a moral space that for many is hard to "get."

One thing that I think makes people less sympathetic to Volo than you seem to be is that "his past trauma" is never detailed in-game. Moreover, whatever it was is treated as being of little significance in comparison to what it fostered within Volo, which is his insatiable curiosity and hunger for answers and further knowledge of the world, of the meaning of life itself and the secrets of creation. Volo never wanted to feel too badly about the painful hardships of life, so his coping mechanism was thinking rather than feeling, and that deep thinking is what stoked his passion for research and discovery, which came so naturally to Volo and is what he directed his energy into.

"You see, ever since I was young, whenever I met with something painful or heartbreaking... I couldn't help but wonder why life was so unfair. Why I was cursed to live through such things. Of course, I imagine we all go through something like that. Eventually, I chose to direct all my energy into my own natural curiosity and ambition. And what tickled my curiosity more strongly than anything were the mysteries to be found in legends, in history, in ruins... You see, I fancied that by unraveling these mysteries, I could find out how the world itself came to be–and with that knowledge, maybe even forge a new, better world!"

I've not yet encountered any fans who "treat him like the second coming of Ghetsis", but I can only assume any inclination to do so is because as of now, Volo is on TV Tropes' Complete Monster trope whereas the gameverse version of Ghetsis, for whatever reasons many of us fans will never understand, is not. The writing for the game is such that the redeemable qualities that some players might see in Volo will not be very strong or apparent to other players, and when looking at his actions, not only does he bring world-threatening instability into his time period, have Pokemon driven into dangerous frenzies, and wants to attempt universal omnicide, but he's one of the rare few villains where when he attempts to kill the Player Character, there is an actually convincing threat of he/she almost dying from it since this game doesn't do the "you just white out and end up back at the Pokemon Center" thing and in its place has you needing to be rescued from certain death by the Galaxy Team Survey Corps.

And as for his Pokemon, this has to be the single most hazy area of whether or not Volo has a redeeming trait since on one hand, there is no ambiguity that he is kind to his Pokemon and has formed very strong friendships with at least half of his team. He likes Pokemon enough to treat them nicely and Pokemon like him in return. What is ambiguous is whether or not he intended for his Pokemon friends to survive what he planned on doing to the universe with Arceus' power. Because these are his exact words before you have to battle him:

"Of course, if I create a brand-new world, then the Hisui region that we currently exist in will be undone and returned to nothing. You, everyone you know, and all the Pokémon living here will vanish in an instant, as if you'd never been."

If his Pokemon would be at his waist in Poke' Balls, they'd be safe. But if not, if the process for purging and remaking reality required only Volo and Arceus to be playing God, then Volo would have to sacrifice his Pokemon and have them erased as though they'd never existed to start with. And given Volo's character as established, how the desire to know all of life's secrets and use that knowledge to attempt a do-over of life itself matters more to him than all else, this prospect would not deter him. Sadden him, yes. But not deter him.

Unless an appearance in PokeMas debunks any of this, I'd honestly prefer it be left this way, with the full scope of Volo's character being entirely up to your own interpretation rather than spoonfed to you. And personally, I'd think he was a fascinating character and an excellent antagonist whether he be "irredeemably evil" or not.

Me: So anyways, I really think that Volo’s character and motivations are viewed unfairly by the fanbase.

Yes, he’s the antagonist, and YES, he went about the worst possible approach to dealing with his past trauma, but he’s really not this human manifestation of all evil that exists in the Pokemon world like some people are making him out to be.

For example, half of his team is composed of Pokemon that can only evolve through friendship-

Some People: Girl, just admit you think he’s hot and sit down.

Me:

The fact that this is always their retort on Volo character analyses that don’t treat him like the second coming of Ghetsis…

So, what exactly happened to bring this post to your dash on this lovely morning, most of you are probably NOT wondering (but I’m going to tell you anyway):

Somebody tried to argue that half of Volo’s team being composed of “friendship evolutions” (yes, they said friendship evolutions with air quotes) doesn’t indicate anything about Volo’s character, and I-

Ok. OK. So I suppose the above ALSO applies to Silver’s Crobat, then! As well as Cyrus’ own Crobat! Oh, and Ghetsis’ Hydreigon being underleveled and knowing Frustration at maximum power, don’t be ridiculous, that has absolutely no meaning at all, Frustration was just chosen at random from Hydreigon’s movepool!!

This is “the door is blue” debate, but Pokemon edition.

[sningo-prompts]

kinda curious about everyones (elesa and emmet especially!) reactions to just how Sneaslers look once the dust settles and emotions have been dealt with

Ok im gonna make him noble sneaseler. Just like he evolved for a noble reason didnt he. Doing what he thought was giving up his human life to save his brother. Pretty noble. Plus tall UwU. I want him to go from 3’ to like almost 7’ i want him to be taler than Emmet. Idk if lady sneaseler was taller than Ingo because i haven’t touched PLA in ages. Anyway on to the question.

Emmey cant look at Ingo and not feel guilty. Everytime he sees his brothers evolved form he is reminded of what Ingo gave up for it and why. It takes a lot for Emmet to move past this. Once he does though. I think Emmet is kinda glad about it. Like Ingo is tall enough to do so much more than before. He can get into bed on his own. He can open the subway doors, though thats only cause they slide the apartment door is still lost to him. I think Emmet likes being able to be face to face with Ingo again. Even if Emmet is looking up a little now. Ingo can wear his old clothing though they come a little short in him. Emmet is glad that theres so much more Ingo can do than before.

Elesa now she adores his evolution. After the shock wears off off. Sneaslers are born models ok. She also is happy to finally w real hug from Ingo. She missed those. She has to put in a lot of work to get Ingo and Emmet to see the bright side of things. After they move on past the grief of Ingo never returning human and finally accept things she 100% begs Ingo to let her help him get better fitting clothing. Shame he has to go through this again.

Now Ingo hates seeing his new body. It reminds him of his Lady. It reminds him of everything he lost when he left Hisui. Hes never gonna see her again and now every time he looks in the mirror hes reminded of that. Sure after while he accepts the fact hes never going to be human but at least now he isnt going to die before Emmet by like 40 years. Sometimes he walks past a mirror and thinks his Lady is there with him only to turn around and see it was his own reflection. I think though after a while he realises hes a Noble and it makes him happy to carry on her legacy. He feels honoured by it eventually.

The subway staff find it easier to accept Ingos new form as him. Like before imagine if you boss became an adorable cat. Its hard to treat him as normal. Now they can treat him like before without so much effort. Though i think Ingo is much closer with his staff than before. So they are more relaxed around him. Its more like a family than ever.

Everyone else is kinda frightened by him a little maybe? Like those long claws are spooky though idk this is the pokemon world so they probably arent. Honestly now that im thinking about it people probably dont even bat an eye at him.

Scientists and poachers are gonna have a much harder time getting him. They probably see those claws and dont bother. Like some probably still wanna try for the rare pokemon but not more are discouraged.

Sorry this took so long and turned out so bad. Im so tired.

[thecarnivorousmuffinmeta]

I feel bad sending this because it's such a broad question, but it's also a little bit your fault because you wrote "Wearing the Faces of Men" and now I'm reading it (love it, but stop making me feel Emotions about Caterpie): Twilight and Pokemon -- how would you go about blending them? I know Harry Potter magic and Meyer vampires don't mesh so well, but maybe pokemon and vampires could coexist. Or would that depend on whether the average pokemon poses any kind of physical threat to a vampire? I'm going to keep thinking about this, but very curious to know your thoughts, even if that thought is, "Don't."

OP is referring to Wearing the Faces of Men, one of those fics that was clearly written by me. All you need to know is there's Pokémon involved. It's a thing.

Anyway, onto your question.

Well, for one, we're in that world where if there were Pokémon in the Twilight world (or vampires in the Pokémon world) then this would always be the case, both worlds would be very different than what they are in canon. However, unlike Harry Potter, this isn't a shot in the head.

This is because Pokémon don't have a secret, superior, society that would have been demolished by vampires (or else wizards would be the vanguard against vampires). Pokémon are simply Pokémon, they exist in the world and have varying relations with human society that are both good and not so good.

Now, would human Pokémon trainers become a thing in this world? Would the obsession with Pokémon make society turn the way it does in the Pokémon world? Would the Volturi even exist? Hard to say.

Off the top of my head...

I imagine most Pokémon are not threats to vampires. Powerful Pokémon are very rare, generally Pokémon trained by humans will be more powerful than your standard wild Pokémon. Your average Pikachu is not going to have any effect on a vampire.

You would need an absurdly powerful Pokémon to pack enough firepower to make it through vampire skin. And even then vampires regenerate very quickly. Though I imagine powerful Psychic, Ghost, Fairy, etc. type Pokémon could do significant damage. Then there are the Pokémon that are pretty much gods, who can turn back time, create false realities, etc.

However, I'm going to go on the assumption that a) Pokémon cannot become "vampires" b) Pokémon are not a natural source of food for vampires (still human blood or bust).

What I'm getting at here is that I don't think Pokémon and vampires come into conflict. I imagine what we get is a hybrid world that is mostly Pokémon like but has the Volturi.

Oh, the Pokémon are well aware that vampires exist and they prey on humans, but humans don't listen to them and for the most part it doesn't concern them (unless they become very attached to their trainer/owner in which case they will defend their human to the death).

I imagine the Volturi live in the Pokémon world's answer to Italy (in an as of yet unreleased game, no doubt), and pose as a kind of Elite 3, where they have their own absurdly powerful Pokémon recruited in part to do battle against the Pokémon of the Romanians/Egyptians/Newborn Armies/etc. who are treated as equal members of the Volturi. (Aro likely has a habit of collecting not only gifted, psychic, humans to turn into vampires but also very powerful Pokémon, he too, has his eye on Pikachu just like Team Rocket).

Plucky humans come by every once in a while after collecting all the Italian badges to do battle with them. Aro thinks it's great.

Bella starts her Pokémon journey when she's nine because Renee wants her out of the house in the tiny, barely on the map, town of Forks. Her starter Pokémon which adores her is likely deathly afraid of Edward when they inevitably run into him. Edward probably eats it behind her back, which devastates Bella and makes her even more emotionally dependent on him. This somehow leads to either Bella dying or becoming a vampire.

Carlisle is an avid supporter of Pokémon rights and petitions to eliminate Pokémon battling: no one listens to him and no one cares. He has mixed feelings when he hears about N, a continent over, who had the right idea but also had to go and mix it with domestic terrorism. Now people take Carlisle even less seriously than before.

Esme is now a Chansey that Carlisle picked up in a hospital after she suffered the devastating loss of her egg. It dotingly goes to work with him and cleans the house. Chansey Esme is living her best life, Edward thinks Chansey Esme and Carlisle are married, Carlisle can't dispute it because it's not... wrong...

Steven Stone NSFW Alphabet

There is a criminal lack of Steven Stone NSFW content on this site, so to celebrate Pokemon Day, I’m gonna remedy this tragedy.

Also thanks to @champion-prism for convincing me to do this. Their Pokemon sword and shield stuff is phenomenal! You should totally check them out! 

 NSFW under the cut

A = Aftercare (what are they like after sex?) 

Steven is just very considerate after sex, cleans up, gets you some snacks and water, showers/bathes with you. Loves to cuddle afterwards and have light conversations with you.

B = Body part (what is their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner?) 

He likes his hands. They’re so skilled and careful, and honestly, very pretty. They’re very good at making you come undone, so he’s also proud of them.

On you? Well, Steven is an intellectual gentleman, so he is definitely a thigh guy. Thighs of all kind in fact. Dainty, slender thighs, strong, muscular thighs, plush, thick thighs with little dimples of cellulite? All of them! Likes having them warm his cheeks when he’s going down on you.

C = Cum (anything to do with cum) 

I don’t think he likes mess that much, so I feel like he probably uses condoms to keep things more manageable if yall aren’t trying for kids, or having you swallow after giving him a blowie if you’re ok with that.

That being said, I think there’s a part of him that would really like to give you a facial. It’s such a dirty idea to him.

D = Dirty Secret (a dirty secret of theirs)   

Would like to be fingered, maybe even pegged, but he’s too embarrassed to bring it up.

E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?) 

He has experience, but not with many people. He’s been in two or three serious relationships before you, so he has a pretty good grasp on what he likes, and how to do what you like. Good communicator too.

F = Favourite Position

A tossup between missionary and cowgirl. He likes the classic intimacy of the latter, but there’s something about you bouncing up and down on him, your body on full display, that just does it for him.

G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment or humorous?)    

Not really goofy at all, but not necessarily serious either, unless he’s feeling super sincere and loving that day.

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes?) 

He definitely has hair down there, but it’s well-groomed of course.

They don’t call him the silver-haired dreamboat for nothing ;)

I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? are they romantic?)  

So romantic. Loves intertwining his fingers with yours as he glides into you. He tells you how beautiful you are and how much he loves you, and how good you feel.

J = Jack Off (masturbation headcanon.) 

Doesn’t masturbate that often, it’s definitely more of a thing he does when he’s away from you for a long period of time. Thinks of you when he does it, likes to imagine it’s some part of you wrapped around his dick and not his hand.

K = Kink (one or more of their kinks.) 

Likes light bondage, whether it’s you or him being tied up, big fan of how aesthetically pleasing shibari is. Also likes blindfolds and waxplay.

He’s a switch, but that being said, he’s very softcore when it comes to it. Very gentle dom, very soft sub.

L = Location (where are their favourite places to do the do?) 

Anywhere at home, though he thinks the bed is the most intimate. He loves doing it outside, provided you two are alone and unlikely to be seen or disturbed.

One of his favourite memories is when he made love to you on a secluded beach in Alola, while the sun was setting and bathing you in gold.

M = Motivation (what turns them on and gets them going?) 

Sometimes he just looks at you and you just smile at him, and he is so in love that he has to show you exactly how he feels. With his penis, naturally.

Other things that get him going, include lingerie, likes how delicate and pretty it is on your skin, when you put on lipbalm/lipgloss/lipstick, reminds him of what that mouth can do ;), and when you’re all dressed up to go out to a fancy dinner/party with him, you just looked so gorgeous and expensive decked out in your beautiful outfit and decorated in all those jewels he found for you.

N = NO (is there something they wouldn’t do? what are their turn-offs?) 

He can’t bring himself to hurt you or degrade you. He just can’t, even if you’re into it. Not only does it hurt him to see you in pain, it makes him feel like a bad person too.

O = Oral (do they prefer giving or receiving? how skilled are they?) 

This man could live between your legs if he could. He’s so thorough and passionate about it, loves the way you moan.

He feels awkward, unworthy when you offer to go down on him. That being said, he loves it when you do. The image of your lips wrapped around him is one of his all-time favourites.

P = Pace (are they fast and rough or slow and sensual?) 

Slow and sensual, all the way baby! Very thorough with each thrust. He can be fast, but not too much of a fan of being rough.

Q = Quickie (what is their opinion on quickies over proper sex? how often do they have quickies?) 

Definitely way more of a meticulous, taking-his-time kind of guy, though he won’t turn down the odd quickie now and then. Those tend to happen when you two are getting ready to go out and you just look so good that he has to have you, but he also still wants to be on time for your dinner reservation or Devon gala.

R = Risk (are they willing to experiment? do they take risks?) 

Not super experimental but will humour you if it’s a relatively safe endeavour.

Due to his celebrity and corporate-heir status, he’s not one for anything public, so don’t even ask. When you guys get home though, go all out.

S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)

He managed three rounds once, but it’s usually one or two. He likes spending time on foreplay and non-intercourse sexual touch so the rounds can be pretty long.

T = Toy (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?) 

The only ones that he owns are for you. He enjoys using them on you, treats them like an extension of himself and his skills rather than just a tool or a low effort way to make you orgasm.

Ironically, despite being a rock nerd, he doesn’t own any rock or gem toys.

U = Unfair (how much do they like to tease?) 

Not really, might tease you for how wet you’ve gotten so soon, but other than that he is a very nice, polite guy.

V = Volume (how loud are they? what sounds do they make?) 

Not super loud, but definitely a moaner and mewler over a groaner and a grunter. Loves talking during it too, whether it’s romantic notions or dirtier things.

W = Wild Card (a random nsfw headcanon.)

Likes doing a sugar-daddy/sugar-baby roleplay with you. He would never be in that kind of relationship in real life, but he thinks it’s fun to pretend once in a while and spoil you. He also loves it when you try use your body to get something out of him during these roleplays, makes him feel powerful.

X = X-Ray (what’s going on in those pants?) 

He’s longer than the average, but he’s as thick. He’s circumcised

Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?) 

Honestly, it depends. If he’s not out on a trip, it’s kind of in the middle, 2-3 times a week, maybe a fourth time if he’s feeling really frisky. However, if he’s been gone for a while, then clear out your schedule baby, you’ll be boning every day for the next week.

Z = ZZZ (how quickly do they fall asleep afterward?)

Not too quickly, though it does make him very relaxed and calm. If it’s before bed he’ll usually drift off in about half an hour, but if it’s the middle of the day, he can go about his business just fine, just maybe a little dazed and languid.

[petitelepus]

Hello! I saw matchups are open... could I get a yandere and a regular mtmte matchup? (Just yandere is fine if you can't do both).

I am a very anxious introvert (20/she-her/INFP) and find myself worrying about everything. I am a bisexual and I would describe my style as 'soft goth'. I love video games and movies and tend to love/fixate more on the villains in both (I also aspire to be a film maker one day or at least work in the industry as an editor). I also love cryptids, especially the wendigo. I find myself collecting plushies, particularly of the pokemon variety, though I wouldn't pass up any cryptid plushies either! I can talk about things I love for hours so long as the other person is showing interest (i.e. I don't want to feel like i'm boring them). I think I am a mediator at heart as I hate conflict and will practically bend over backwards to avoid it. Most social situations drain me of energy, so I need some time to myself to just listen to music or do something I enjoy in order to gain my energy back.

I match you with Nautica!

This curious and happy femme was immediately drawn to you by your 'soft goth' style. It was a whole new thing for her so she was excited to learn more about that and if all humans dressed like you.

She might have startled you at first with her enthusiasm, causing you to retreat to your habsuite, but she will come to apologize to you for her pushiness and asks if she could make it up for you.

Mediators are people who are quiet and keep to themselves but they try to see goodness in everyone and you can no doubt tell that Nautica only means good, so you let her into your social circle.

You never regretted that decision.

While Nautica might be a little more outgoing than you are, she also enjoys the privacy of your habsuite where the two of you can cuddle and watch movies.

She loves your comments about movies and their villains and their possibly sad or tragic backstories that would make their villainous ways acceptable.

"What's a Wendigo?" She asked you once and you stared at her in shock before going on full ramble mode. Once you're done explaining and making her watch the gameplay of "Until Dawn" she is in awe and smiles, "Oh, like a Sparkeater, but for humans!"

"That's..." You blink, "Pretty accurate."

Nautica adores Pokémon! She is a little sad when she learns Pokémon aren't real. They are such cute little creatures and she once again admires humans' abilities to create such things. You guys have a huge imagination.

You worry because you care and she understands and cherishes you for it. When you need your own time, she gives it to you.

Nautica might be a little more outgoing than you, so you both have agreed that she can go and have fun at the bar's music night while you stay in your habsuite and recharge.

When your anniversary comes around, she goes past her abilities and gets you two of your own Nintendo consoles and games so the two of you can be Pokémon Trainers and rivals together. May the best Trainer win!

Rung is Yandere for you!

You're kind, just like Rung is so you both get along well. You're such a sweet little creature. Shy, yes, but Rung understands the feelings behind your shyness.

You're delicate and fragile, just like fine glass and that's how he intends to treat you as. Rung is patient, letting you come to him because he is the Lost Light's only psychiatrist and so far he knows what's best for you. In the end, everyone ends up in Rung's patient's seat.

While you talk about your interests, he makes sure to take notes so he can use them to win you over. He might get his hands on each and every copy of "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" and while he isn't fond of them, he is willing to watch them for you.

He understands that you need your own time, but that doesn't mean he stops from manipulating you to seek his help and no one else’s.

You're feeling lonely? Talk to Rung. You're feeling overwhelmed? Rung is there for you. Feeling sad? Rung is all ears for no one else will listen and care like he does.

He will get you everything you need while pressuring how others won't pay you the attention you need and deserve. He is there for you and while he should help you to function without him, he isn't ready to let you go.
