Pokémon that Clone High characters would have

Abe: Plusle, Ampharos (he learned his lighthouse impression from it), Magikarp (shiny; he always encourages it to evolve but he never realizes it's holding an Everstone), Absol (it always tries to warn him when something is about to go wrong but he never listens), Dracovish (it's a hot mess just like him), Chatot (it repeats all the embarrassing things he says)

Gandhi: Plusle (he and Abe agreed to get matching Pokémon but he doesn't know what a Minun is), Ninjask, Electrode, Jolteon, Galarian Zapdos (he claims he just found it), Eiscue

Joan: Murkrow (she rescued it; it can't fly), 5 Unown that spell "F#CK U"

JFK: Cherubi, Honedge, Wiglett, Cradily, Cloyster, Trubbish (the first 5 remind him of certain body parts ["Er uh, I bet Honedge is super effective in Cloyster!"]; Trubbish was Ponce's favorite)

Cleopatra: Milotic, Cofagrigus, Furfrou (Pharaoh Trim), Persian, Alolan Persian, Vivillon (Sandstorm Pattern)

Frida: Feebas, Sigilyph, Mimikyu, Grafaiai, Slakoth, Zorua

Harriet: Maushold, Togetic, Pikachu (Cosplay/Pop Star), Phione, Skitty, Munchlax

Confucius: Rotom, Slowking, Abra (it sometimes teleports him to dangerous places; he swears it's trying to kill him but nobody believes him), Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle (all 6 are shiny)

Topher: Gimmighoul (he's not allowed to have Pokémon but he keeps this one in secret)

Scudworth: Cutiefly (Butlertron gave it to him for his birthday), Ditto (he thinks it's a Mew that got smooshed), Zangoose, Seviper (he doesn't know Zangoose and Seviper are enemies), Type: Null, "Abominateon" (I made that last one up; he tried to use all the evolution stones on an Eevee at the same time and the Eevee turned into a hideous amalgamation of all the evolved forms)

Candide: Mewtwo, Salazzle, Pheromosa, Iron Thorns, Flutter Mane, Silvally

April 1st. a day for fools.

This is a large post that is mainly a text wall, but however shows more lore and backstory to Elliot. Content warnings for cemeteries, medication, mentions of abuse, mentions of homophobia and transphobia, dissociation and dead family. Stay safe when reading.

The sharp squeak of the water pipes closing from turning the shower waters off breaks him out of his trance. How long was he even in the shower for?  That. That doesn’t matter. 

The Pikachu dries himself off with a towel before wandering back to his room, pulling open his drawers to find clothes to wear.

He simply decides on what seems to be a very old pair of sports shorts, and a black hoodie. No shirt.

He goes to his bed where he kneels down on the floor and gets a box out from underneath it. It’s gained a lot of dust that he simply wipes off with his hand, before realising that the dust is indeed going to stick to his hand, he then just rubs his hand on the carpet to get it off.

Opening the box reveals a large yellow cardigan with a copper-like ring in the centre. He puts on the ring and the cardigan. It smells a bit odd but hey. That’s what you get for refusing to wash it. (He notes the slight scent of sandalwood still lingering on it and smiles.)

He grabs his wallet, house keys and a notebook that he kept underneath his pillow. He puts all of the things into the large kangaroo pocket his black hoodie provides before he exists his room and goes downstairs.

He doesn’t spend long in the kitchen, simply eating a slice of bread and drinking a bit of water. He looks around to check if any other inhabitants of the house are nearby before opening a cupboard high above the sink and taking a pill container out. Opening the ‘Thursday’ segment and pouring half the pills out onto his hand, quickly shoving them into his mouth as he puts the container away and takes another sop of water to wash the bitter taste down.

He walks out to the loungeroom where Ardel can be seen browsing websites on a crappy laptop, said laptop looks like someone has tried to paint a design on the exterior and with the cheery colours used, it was probably Luke or Mausa.

The electric rodent starts the conversation with his usual happy tone, despite being awfully forced for this day.

“Hey.”

“Sup.” The dark canine responds.

“I’m not going to be available today. At all. Have to do something important and I won’t be home. Just so you know.”

“Aight. What’s so important that it’s got you dressed up like a hobo lookin’ for more drugs than a pharmacy?”

Elliot looks Ardel in the eyes and drops his happy voice act. Instead replying in a deadpan monotone.

“It’s. That day. I’m spending the day with her for her birthday.”

“Her? O-OH. Oh yeah. Okay yeah I. I get it man. I’ll tell the others to not message you or anythin’ I got it covered. Bro code.”

Elliot’s face relaxes as he lets out a long sigh that he didn’t even know he was holding in.

“Thank you. I’ll be off now.”

He exits the lounge heading right to the front door, pulling a pair of black shoes off the shoe rack. He didn’t wanna step in glass or anything.

Now, the location he needed to head to was a good while away. Rustburo Cemetery. But hey at least on the way there he can pick up some flowers!

He gets a bundle of Yellow Carnations.

And before he knows it, he’s at the Cemetery. Walking in there with a default route he’s followed many times before. He could feel the cold air nipping at his legs. But he ignores it, choosing to instead zone out again until he finds a certain grave stone.

When found, he simply sits down in front of it. Cross legged.

He places the carnations in front of him and puts his hands together, fingers wrapped tightly between each other. And he sits in silence.

He didn’t know what to say yet. So he sat there thinking.

He thought for at least an hour before pulling the notebook out from his pockets.

“Okāsan. It’s me again. Um. Sorry I was a bit late today I uh. I don’t have an excuse. I just spent way too long in the shower. But can you blame me? Heh heh. Ahh that laugh was so fake. Sorry.

A lot has changed since I last came here to talk with you. I’m no longer paired up with that Lorien-san for the contest co-op program. The guy wasn’t even helping and just wanted to take my money. He also treated my friend Ardel-san and Luke-san like crap. So we managed to get away and I used up some of that spare fund you left me to spruce up this house that wasn’t used anymore so it’s now really good and we live there!

I met some of Ardel-san and Luke-san’s friends from before I even knew him too. They’re really nice and stuff so it’s fine. Uh. Oh yeah one of them, Intel-san, helped find some more Pokémon that Lorien-san were abusing. HE left them in poke-balls and hadn’t let them come out for years. Two of them ended up staying with us as they latched onto Intel-san emotionally. But they’re nice. They’re Burst-san and Edna-san. They act like big sisters to Intel-san and the others and it’s nice. Edna-san seems really mature while Burst-san is more open to be childish like Ardel-san is. It’s nice though having new friends and company.

Oh. And my friend Isa-chan? Her Okāsan kicked her out of the house. She didn’t like the fact that he daughter likes women apparently. Which is bullshit. Love who you love. But her Otōsan has her back and has been helping her. I sometimes give her money to try and stay sane. Cause she can’t really stay in the group house we have because of her sensory issues. Too many people around her constantly would stress her out. So she’s currently happy just sleeping in her Otōsan’s car or random motels they find. I really respect her Otōsan for the fortitude he’s kept up. He even managed to take me and Isa-chan to a waterpark for fuck sake.

OH! Yeah and Okāsan, Okāsan, Okāsan! You know that really nice girl who kept showing up to my shows and performances ever since the start? She was at the water park and I got to spend time with her and we’re even dating now! She’s so nice and lovely and honestly I don’t deserve her she’s just so good. Aaaah. I wish you could meet her. She’s gonna meet Obāchan and Ojīchan soon because. Hah I. Accidentally scheduled one of her stay overs on a Saturday and you know I where I have to go on Saturday. I know that Obāchan is gonna love her. Since she’s always been there for me. But. I’m scared what Ojīchan will say or do. Cause you know how he is. Fuckin... Bitch... I know he must have been nice to you since you were his daughter and I’m. Well. The leftover waste but hey. Maybe he’ll go back to being nice one day. Maybe when I’m gone or whatever. Do Liepards have a longer life expectancies than Pikachu? I’ll have to check that out...

But yeah. I brought you some Carnations. They’re yellow like us... And uh... I’m sorry for being such a horrible son. He’ll I don’t even know if you’d accept me as a son even if you were alive. To you I could just be an attention seeking mistake of a daughter... So. Yeah. I’ll stay with you though. It’s your birthday. I gotta.”

So he sat in silence. For hours. No matter if it was too cold. Or if it looked like it was going to rain. He sat there. In silence. Until the sun started to go away.

“Ah. I have to go Okāsan. It’s getting late and I don’t want to upset the spirits resting. So. Um...”

“Happy Birthday Mama. I’ll be back next year.”
