          “I want to know more about the world he comes from... and how it differs to this one. I wonder why it is that he seems to sing to Xerneas, and why they can seemingly understand it. I don’t know what it is he wants, but... strangely, I don’t feel as though I should be overly concerned.”

@idanikou​ [Appeal]

      “Well done. Beyond well done. You’ve given a performance that only His Majesty the King of Unova can give,” Wallace says. “I wish, I wish, I wish I could give you a 10 out of 10 on aesthetic! However, you’ve still earned a very respectable 9/10 from me--namely because I felt that at times, the visuals were too strong for the gentleness of the music. And oh, how I wish I could give you a 10/10 on Technical Mastery, but alas, you have a 7/10--mainly due to my safety concerns at several points throughout your Appeal.” He’s still smarting over Ghetsis’ admonishments about safety at the last Wallace Cup. “The way you represented your region, however, is an undisputed 10/10. You took us so beautifully and lovingly through Unova’s thousands-of-years-long history that it moved me almost to tears. This brings your total from me to 26 points!”

      “Well, you’ve got a 10/10 on the Technical Mastery from me,” River says. “I for one believed that in the end, things would be all right. For the Aesthetic Mastery, I’d like to give you another 9/10. You blew us all away--and yes, I’m sure even Weiss was impressed--with the depth and the complexity of your visuals, how you synthesized the multiple elements that your Pokémon used in their moves, the thought you put into your symbolism and the detail on each of the castles you built…I just wish sometimes there was more of a synthesis of how your Pokémon acted onstage, more coordination of how all six of them could have shared the spotlight. And for Thematic Mastery, another undisputed 10/10. This brings your total from me to 29 points!”

      “You have another near-perfect from me as well!” Feiyun trills happily. “Everything about your Appeal was just--gorgeously laid out and--oh gosh, it reminds me of Tobias when he performs! I can’t even begin to express how amazing it was to see all of that. To see your Pokémon literally playing the music that they were performing to. I felt like the divine just reached out for my hand and offered me to take it. My only deduction is honestly two points from Thematic Mastery. I loved the message you had to send a lot, but sometimes it felt really--overwhelming. I would have wished for something a little…softer. A little--easier to take in. This brings your total from me to 28 points!”

      “I can’t say you did a bad job,” says Weiss. “I can appreciate the fact that you did candidly discuss what happened with Touko and Rosa, otherwise I’d be scoring you a lot lower. I guess maybe you didn’t come here to just pretend to the world like nothing bad ever happened, although I still have my doubts.” She crosses her arms. “Anyway, for Aesthetic Mastery, you’ve actually got a 5/10 from me. It was indeed nice to look at, which is why I haven’t scored you lower, but it felt a lot like you were just going ‘look at me, I’m a god and so are my Pokémon, give me an insta-win,’ and I refuse to be that easily impressed. Your technical mastery I can’t deny also receives a 10/10. As for your Thematic Mastery…” She thinks for a little. “Okay. I’ll be nice. I’ll give you an 8/10 and also ten points back for your Pavilion score, because you’ve sort of convinced me that you might be sincere. This brings your total from me to 23 points.”

      “Thank you, Weiss. And if you want to give the other ten points back, you’re free to do so at any time. Now, onto bonuses. You get +15 for using six moves for all Pokémon on the field, and another +15 for three of the Unovan Pokémon that you used to max out your bonuses. This brings your total to…”

TOTAL: 136 POINTS

GRAND TOTAL: 330 POINTS

[wallace-cup]

      “It’s come to our attention that we’ve missed a bonus for His Majesty Ghetsis Harmonia. You will receive an additional +15 for including facts that tie in with the architecture of the pavilion, bringing your total to 184 points!”

hi hello i think you are superb! and while we haven't interacted ( yet, this should change ), i think your passion for gio is incredible! you put so much thought and effort into his characterization and that's like . . . the top tier good food!!!! be it interactions or simply reading posts on the dash, it becomes infinitely more engaging when a character becomes fleshed out beyond whatever scraps we get in canon, and you've done fantastically at this ok! you're golden!

psa! this blog is highly selective and private. headcanon based and canon divergent lmao. formerly idanikou.

with heavy influence from the works of j.r.r tolkien, suzume (2022), mythic archives of dantalian, various mythologies and whatever else i have compiled (a lot)

a study and criticism of religion, perceived truth and unrealistic ideals, loneliness, the horror and beauty of the divine, the inherent evil behind all things good,

blogroll: @titanchaser ╱ @godstrain ╱ @sonnevater ╱ @astralend ╱ @areadbheir

𝐨𝐧𝐞. #KINGSTHUNDER is an independent, private, highly selective and mutuals exclusive writing blog for ghetsis harmonia of the pokemon franchise. except the vibe of this blog is just ... not pokémon just a lot of other things.

due to the fact that i am OLD, this blog is 18+. please do not follow me if you are under 18!

on this note, this blog will feature dark and triggering themes. i will make sure to tag these things with the format of #trigger so that they can be filtered out! please tag #trypophobia for me!

𝐭𝐰𝐨. this blog will not be open for shipping. i have a long standing worldbuilding where ghetsis is in fact married and he hasn't bonded with anyone else in that way ever since so uhhh.

i am very open to other sorts of bonds, though!

i should also note that i will accept mains and exclusives!

𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐞. i am known for writing metas across the blogs i have. in the wise words of a friend:

with this in mind, the metas i write are portrayal specific to this blog, so please give them a read! i know i can be rather wordy- anyone who has followed me elsewhere may know this, but for my first time followers, worldbuilding is one of my favorite things to do. i am particularly fond of analysis of character psychology.

𝐟𝐢𝐯𝐞. to the point above, i do have other blogs! i am in and out of other fandoms, but i am trying to focus on a smaller group of things for my own sanity.

and by this, i mean i work 32-40 hours as a registered nurse in an inpatient psychiatric unit. i am busy, i am tired, and i can't keep letting my focus go all over the place. inevitably, it still may do that because i have a tendency to be scattered, so if i don't get to something immediately, it isn't you, it's me!

also related to that, i do love communication! i struggle with reading the room (it's the Autism tm) and so if something's up or if you're bothered, please be direct with me! i will not take offense, i quite appreciate feedback so that i can be better as a person! in return, i will communicate back! i am learning to curate my space (after 10+ years of being on tumblr).

𝐬𝐢𝐱. there are people i won't interact with due to various reasons- my dni list is on the carrd of my other blogs. i won't interact with genderbent versions of characters, people who are Real Life Individuals (not counting fictional depictions like in the typemoon franchise or whatnot because those really have nothing to do with the actual individual they're supposedly based on?).

please stay far away from me if you fall under the following categories (i'm censoring things because god knows tumblr just picks shit up idk): proshipping, writing inc*st, p*dophilia, r*pe/n*ncon, are transphobic/homophobic- the usual gross behavior! use your moral compass!

on top of that, i am a firm believer that we learn from the media around us. full censorship is just as dangerous as the aforementioned things- the world isn't all sunshine and rainbows! please refer to this post which essentially summarizes the gist of what i'm trying to explain.

𝐬𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧. anyway, hello, i'm percival / percy, i am 30+ and use he/him pronouns exclusively! i am a hobby artist (it's my side-gig from nursing) and sometimes i post my art, tagged #whats my art tag considering i constantly forget my art tag if it's fancy. please do not repost my art without my permission.

mutuals, feel free to ask me for my discord, since i am much easier to reach there!

i look forward to writing with you!

@idanikou​ and @infernalpursuit​ asked: thyméo / wikstrom. this was answered specifically in reference to @chevalear​ ‘s portrayal  /  meme.

Thyméo would definitely be in the top three most difficult Elite battles, possibly even the hardest depending on how the battle itself played out. While Leon would have the type advantage with Charizard, he doesn’t really want to frame his whole battle around a single pokeon’s advantage, especially when he already assumes Thyméo would have put in place counter measures for such a predictable move. There’d be a lot of preparation, team shuffling, and move predictions made before the battle.

Despite his passionate opposition to both Diantha and Malva, Leon doesn’t take any such issue with the other Elites, and he actually holds a great amount of respect for Thyméo in particular. This is one of the few battles where he’d be almost happy to lose, simply because it’d give him a chance to re-train and prove that he and his team can come back stronger than ever to really earn their victory.

Tobias Mendelssohn and the Never-Ending Revolution

Arceus is a plague. Much like a disease, we’re engaged in a constant struggle against him, and yet he’s constantly inventing new ways in which to trouble us. This is the nature of the evils of the world--always mutating according to the temper of the times; when one problem is solved, two more spring from the very solution itself. These struggles against Arceus will culminate in a final battle that I’ve been plotting for a while now, although certain other things (such as Renate’s resignation) will have to happen first. But even after the battle is won, the fight will still continue.

Because Arceus isn’t just a dangerous being. He also represents dangerous ideas. And thus, like all tyrants, his ways will still pollute the Earth long after he’s gone; in fact, for some of his followers, his death has only convinced them that he is a martyr. Though he won’t be around to fight on his own side any longer, which will certainly make it easier for humanity to progress, he has more than enough people to carry on the fight for him. There will be those who refuse to give up their terrible Arceus-inspired ways. There will be devoted cultists and their leaders clamoring for his return. There will be evil Teams striving to revive him. All in all, even though our heroes will have their day, they’re still going to have to spend the rest of their lives picking up the pieces. Thus, the Never-Ending Revolution will continue, long after most of my muses are dead and gone. Perhaps their great-grandchildren will truly live in a world without him, as will my muses with extremely long lifespans. But most of my characters will not.

We need look no further than our own world for proof that this is how things are going to be. People have fought against racism and other forms of bigotry for hundreds of years, we’re still dealing with the problem today, and our grandchildren will probably still be dealing with it in one form or another. And though blatant racism still exists like it did in the past, racism has also mutated to be more subtle, more underground, more unconscious. It manifests in things as innocent (yet annoying) as “I’m not a racist but,” to revealing accidents such as writing a “white savior” narrative while not knowing what that is, to things as horrible as alt-right dogwhistles. Support for Arceus and his ideology will likewise mutate, changing to try and make itself more politically correct, attempting to re-mold itself in the language of the times (or, like racism, trying to convince the next generation that the past was better). The revolution that overthrew Arceus was just the beginning. The real revolution will be fought on the battlefields of the mind.

What is Tobias’ role in all this? Well. He certainly didn’t start this fight--that honor goes to Friedrike Skyherald. But as the man who finally exposed Arceus’ curse on Unima to the world, he sees it as his duty to end it. After the six years it takes to complete his Ph.D. on the Protagonist Phenomenon and its influence on regional politics, and after the final battle against Arceus, he sets out into the world to do more “field research.” This is his way of describing that he personally throws himself into as many of the major protagonist-vs-evil-team conflicts as possible--usually as a guide/mentor, but sometimes, if the protagonist is too young or too mentally unfit for their job, he steps in and does their journey for them. And after Arceus is defeated? Most of his time is spent cleaning up after Arceus’ mess. Going after the evil teams that formed around Arceitic ideologies. Or politicians trying to drag their countries back into the dead god’s grasp. The fight is a part of him now. And there’s no going back.

Though Tobias has lost the trust of @idanikou​‘s Ghetsis due to his actions after the Sweet Love Soiree, he manages to earn his found family uncle’s trust back through many years of his journey toward being a better person. As he goes on these journeys with his adoptive brother @qntmthry​ / Colress and his childhood best friend also named Tobias / @drkvoids​, he actually becomes a part of Ghetsis’ court as an ambassador who goes to regions who have been destabilized by evil Teams and corrupt politicians--particularly those who still serve Arceus. I imagine he was chosen because people would see him as a symbol of hope, and see his story as a microcosm of the ultimate struggle between humanity and its tyrannical cosmic oppressor: a stormy and treacherous path beset with setbacks, but one that ultimately leads to resolution and peace.

Tobias retires from his overseas adventures at the age of 45. He becomes more settled in Ghetsis’ court as court composer--finally fulfilling his Mozart-like potential --though he still acts as an ambassador due to what he means to the world. Throughout his life, though, starting from the publication of his Ph.D. all the way to his death, he will still produce a huge and extremely influential body of work based on his travels recording everything he’s learned about evil Teams and why Heroes (protags) are so effective in dealing with them. It’s really the sort of thing he wants to dedicate his life toward, and these are the sort of works that can forever change scholarship and the way people look at the world. And of course, running through all these books is a very anti-Arceus thread: the final word in the fight against the demiurge, even long after he’s retired from revolutionary warfare.

[wallace-cup]

@idanikou​ 

      “I have to say, Your Majesty, you’ve outdone yourself again,” Wallace says. “I took notes, but I hardly needed them--your pavilion definitely stood out quite starkly in my memory. The architecture, the singing, the joy I felt in the dance, all of it stands as a penultimate testament to a beautiful nation and a beautiful way of life. Only--my Milotic partner, Mistique, did say her first cup of tea was rather too warm, and the second cup had too little honey. And as a final second note, the murals--while beautiful and perfectly understandable to yours truly--might be a little hard to follow for some of its, ah…less intelligent viewers. Some people might not understand what you’re aiming to say, so perhaps a few placards explaining the pictures would have helped? Moreover, I perhaps would have liked different styles of Unovan music to dance to in the activities. On the whole, though, an absolutely splendid job, and a perfect show that your nation is well on its way to recovery. I would like to give you 10/10 for architecture, 7/10 for food, 6/10 for the activities--I would really have liked to see a broader range there--and 8/10 for the facts. This brings your total from me to 31 points. Now, onto River’s commentary!”

      “I would like to echo my colleague Wallace’s comments that your eye for design is absolutely impeccable. The way you utilized the light, the acoustics, the atmosphere…Everything harmonized, like the music, in perfect balance. Perhaps there could have been rather more color on the outside of the pavilion to balance all of the white, but on the whole, your pavilion is a masterwork of incorporating its multifarious elements as elegantly as possible. My Pokémon here--” he gestures to the blue Water-type Typhlosion variant, with the iridescent waves pouring out of its back where fire would have been--“also very much enjoyed the food you had to offer. So that means your score from me is a 7/10 on the architecture, a 9/10 on the food, a 7/10 on the activities, and a 10/10 on the absolutely marvelous facts that you’ve provided. This brings your total from me to a 33. Feiyun?”

      “Coming right up!” She claps her hands together. “I absolutely love the complexity of the architecture. You put so much detail into your Pavilion, it’s like you personally built every inch of it! And seeing you sing there with the choir is a wonderful addition too. It shows that you’re willing to be among your own people and to lift their voices with your own. The murals were an excellent facts option, I think, for people who don’t necessarily speak the same language--like me! And the food?” She’s thinking of the word impeccable, but it doesn’t come immediately to mind--“Remarkable! And my little Xiaoyang was delighted!” She scritches the little Heliolisk under his frills.

Great, though, she sounds like Mister Sukizo.

      “The only thing I’d change is…I wish you’d brought something a bit more hands-on with your activities, to go with the dancing. Like an arts and crafts section, I think? Yes, I think that’s what they are called. So your score from me is going to be a 10/10 on the architecture, a 10/10 on the facts, a 10/10 on the food, and a 6/10 on the activities. This brings your score from me to 36 points!”

      “Well, it was very pretty to look at, and the singing was top-notch, which I could always appreciate as a singer myself. What’s more, I found nothing to complain about with the food, so everything about the pavilion was great…

      “Except for the fact that this was all very plainly an ask for redemption after the Plasmatic disaster that most recently struck your nation. You know, I was against you coming to this Contest at all, and I’m against you being here now. You really think you can come up here with that big flashy mural, and those pretty voices by pretty people, and the food you didn’t even help make, to make everybody forget about the fact your Team basically almost trashed the nation? I swear to the gods, Nadia Khorasani is the only sane person in all of Plasma--”

She huffs.

      “Anyway. While I can’t deny the technical flawlessness of everything you’ve presented here today, you need to keep in mind that an artist’s motives--the sort of heart they put into their art--can color the whole canvas of their work. So whereas your technicality will net you a perfect score, I refuse to reward your attempt to come here to this Contest in complete bad faith--and thus I’ll be deducting half the points from your final. There are ways to pull off a public redemption, and ways you could have convinced me you were sincere, but this sure as hell isn’t one of them. This means your total from me is 20 points.”

       “……well, all right, Miss Schnee,” River says, a little shaken by her words. “Anyway, onto the audience score, which is the average of all the scores that our audience members have submitted to us electronically. Let’s put it on the screen, along with a random selection of the comments, please…”

I’ve never seen anything so gorgeous in my life. I’m moving to Unova immediately. 40/40

I’m doing my architecture class report on this one for sure. 40/40

It’s pretty but I’m like scared of it. It’s like I just wandered into a building of the Fae. 20/40

Cool region. Still has Plasma. 0/10

      “Now it’s time for the bonuses,” Wallace says. “You receive +15 for your activity that humans and Pokémon can do together. Which brings your total to…”

TOTAL: 169 POINTS 184 POINTS (updated here)
