#johto quartet

[snailfen]

theres something really special to me abt the johto quartet but i dont really know how to put it into words so heres this quick doodle i whipped up

like, i just think this is neat!

theyve all got that special angled, spiky part of their hairstyle first of all, second of all red is a major part of their designs.

its really interesting to me because, (at least off of the top of my head) i cant think of any other protag+rival group with this kind of design consistency, except maybe the sinnoh trio and their scarves? ESPECIALLY across generations!

in conclusion: do not separate them

I forgot that I haven't shared this before here: some of my pokemon fanmerch orders had arrived earlier this month, and I've been having the time of my life bringing them everywhere with me 🥺

the highly specific version of kogamoshipping that lives in my head where it's the alola era and kris is the leader of johto's battle tower (because this is me we're talking about. get sinnoh's stupid battle frontier out of johto and give us back the original battle tower etc etc) and leaf is currently just chilling & being a wandering trainer who mainly spends her time getting up to random bullshit. i like to think she was going nuts with dynamaxing in galar or something before meandering back to kanto. anyway she's like "hm i'm gonna go visit red and blue soon so maybe i'll practice for their new battle tree by finally getting around to challenging that battle tower in johto." so she shows up and makes it all the way up to kris and kris promptly kicks her ass because unfortunately it's the fate of the kanto trio to constantly lose to the johto quartet and that night leaf is just furiously texting red and blue like "do you guys know anything about the leader of the battle tower please please please please" and blue's like "kris? yeah she's one of the ones who won the championship after us back when we were kids before she gave up the title. the one after gold but before lyra. oh, did you want her number for battling or something?"

and needless to say the next day kris is getting a very enthusiastic introductory text and a request for battling outside of the battle tower. she stares at it like "???" for a second before opening the johto group chat and going "Alright which one of you is giving out my number to weirdos" and eventually lyra manages to pry the events of the previous day out of her and tells kris who she is. and of course kris' brain jumps straight to battling like blue's did (pokémon crystal-exclusive goldenrod city mall roof flavor text i love you) so she agrees to meet up with leaf outside of the battle tower sometimes and it just devolves into looney tunes-level of leaf desperately trying to flirt in her own way and kris being insanely oblivious. eventually lyra figures out what's going on and strong-arms gold and silver into helping to properly set them up (it's not helping) and she's texting red & blue about it too (which is also not helping) and no reminders about her champion duties are stopping her from getting involved in this situation. leaf would desperately love for her to not get involved in this situation. lyra is Getting Involved in this situation. kris is not aware there's a situation at all but she's definitely having more fun than she thought battling leaf. so at least SHE'S having a good time

i need to work on the multiple aus in one bigger picture thing again

[a-tale-of-legends]

I like to think that Red and Kenji have this dynamic of Kenji needing to bite something, so Red just lets him bite his arm. I don't know if that makes any sense but. Yeah.

tell me abt ur wips...if u wanna...

Basically all the fanfictions in the pinned poll (which I'm keeping up so I feel guilty about not doing it while I'm reposting beetle photos/videos out of hopes that I will eventually do it despite having no motivation)

Plus a bunch more fanfic ideas I keep in my notes app (mostly being rocket executive/johto quartet content with a side of N x proton (aka NeverHappeningShipping) and maybe reguri fanfic ideas (the same "Red and Green mountain angst stuff™" everybody makes but still makes me cry) . I hardly even scraped the surface but I need to finish the four from the poll first. Currently the one I got the farthest with was the proton and N fistfight at a Denny's parking lot thing. No spoilers though. It's a surprise 👻👻👻 (jk I'm giving spoilers. The one spoiler is that petrel emerges from the Denny's to see proton doing that family guy death pose (n already left long since then)(also petrel is incredibly slow with his orders))

Dreamers of Myths and Legends Facts and Trivia

Here are some Facts and Trivia for my WTDW Pokémon AU! NOTE! Some contain SPOILERS!!!

The Dream Quartet live in different regions: Wiatt, Eric and Carly are from Kanto, Oliver is from Johto, Sara is from Kalos, and Lewis is from Galar.

Originally Eric's Aipom wasn't going to be named Ridley and Sara's Skiddo was going to be named Millie. I ended up switching it so now Eric's Aipom is named Ridley and Sara's Skiddo doesn't have a nickname.

Speaking of Nicknames only 3 of the WTDW characters Pokémon are nicknamed after their animatronic counterparts. Those being: Eric, Andrew and Alyssa.

Mike was originally going to have a Charmander named Rex, but since Episode 4 of Season 2 his team has changed. Mike has a team of doggo Pokémon, but who knows Rex the Charmander may make a comeback.

Since the Founder Trio gets a Starter Pokémon (Lewis; Sprigatito, Sara; Piplup, and Oliver; Scorbunny) what about Wiatt?? Sure, Oddity the Eevee counts, but as for the Grass, Fire, Water Starter he does get one. Minor spoilers: The Pokémon once belonged to Wiatt's father, Owen and it's currently in it's middle evolution.

At Lewis's home, he has a Lilipup and a Yamper owned by his mom.

Oliver's siblings are at a Pokémon Boarding School in Johto. They'll appear soon!

The Minimum Wage Trio (got from @saltyr3mix from one of her fanfics) will appear and they have the Legends: Arceus Starters. Pen has Cyndaquil, Audrey has Rowlet, and Hayden has Oshawott. I plan on introducing these three soon! Their starters are going to be fun to write!

Speaking of Starters: Norman has an Hissuian Zorua and Andrew has a Noibat named Morris/Mo.

Damien WILL appear and most of his team was thought of by @wolfusmoonstudio. He only has one Pokémon thought of by me.

One of the character's has a shocking family discovery and...only a few people (my friends) know about it.

NON CANON: I do have a document for this AU where the group has Fakemon from my favorite creators. I'll share it one day, but it's made for fun only.

I'll share more of these fun facts and trivia for my other AU's in the near future!! Just wanted to share the important stuff!!

[snailfen]

wanted to try my hand at one of those "pkmn trainers with traits of pkmn" aus. i also wanted to test my gouache brush and i loved using it!

i used the legendary beasts shiny palettes because i wanted to, i think they turned out pretty good. some of them (COUGH ethan and lyra) were tricky to figure out design-wise but i got em to work.

[reblogs appreciated !]

You are so, very loved @ Silver! 🥺🫶

[kagooleo]

I adore your Kris and Silver time skip designs, they’re amazing. I also love how Silver has a Dratini (I’m a Lance adopts Silver supporter)

oh ty, I’m glad you like them! Dad!Lance is so good from works I’ve seen of them, I support it a lot in my interpretation of Silver becoming a dragon tamer! It’s a really fun dynamic to explore in writing + art, so I definitely want to contribute more to it when time permits it :D

i have so many little doodles of pokemon trainers theyre sooo silly 2 me. anyways ermm, heres a few!. i have favourites…

lots of these r just random unfiltered autism doodles tbh

BTW ALSO ERM, hc stuff for my vers of these sillies,,,

Kris is a transfem enby who uses they/them pronouns with gender neutral or fem titles

Lyra is pansexual and a she/her demigirl

Silver is transmasc and his gender is all over the place tbh, silly guy, a boything

Ethan is bisexual and probably amab he/him but also i feel like he wouldnt really care if u used fem pronouns and stuff for him, idk

and all 4 of them are in a polycue!

Lyra has ADHD, Ethan, Silver and Kris all have autism all 3 of the protags have things that theyve only done, so like, Ethan battled Red on mt silver, Lyra did the time travel stuff with celebi, Kris did all the stuff in the ruins of Alph and all the stuff with the legendary dogs. also u might notice that in the lil drawing i did of them when theyre like, adventure age and stuff- Kris dosnt have one of the johto starters— thats cus like, in my ver at least- okay so like, Kris and Ethan where childhood besties, but like, Kris’ parents r team rocket scientists n kris moved away from new bark when team rocket disbanded n stuff, and their parents moved to hoenn, so kris’s starter is from the hoenn region. anyways they moved back to johto bc their parents heard abt the whole thing with team rocket trying to reform so, yeah- oh yeah and while kris was gone, lyra moved in, and when kris moved back they felt like ethan replaced them so they where more off on their ownish and stuff, but thoughtout their adventures kris warmed up to lyra and reconnected with ethan :D

i have so many more thoughts jeijedijdhhsifmtyyahbrkoaosm but yeah! thats it for now :3 erm,, if u read this maybe lmk in tags or comments or whatever, um, comments and people actually saying stuff really helps and is like my main source of motivation to post art- i really wanna get more into the tumblr community around the sillay trainers but idk how to talk 2 people so like,, yeah if any1 wants to talk or chat or whatever just say :D! but also u dont need 2 , yeah, um, yea >w<

May I request your Dad Lance thoughts for the Johtet 👀 (recently came across the phrase as Johto + Quartet. I think it goes better than Joh4 bc I don't like numbers haha) and would you mind if I incorporated them (or your other thoughts) into my fanfic visions?

well you see my thing is i tend to view lance as more of a crazy uncle sort of figure towards them instead of any sort of that because i have done my absolute best to block the mangling of his character in hgss out of my mind (because i think hgss tried to make him more. uh. heroic-sounding??? champion-like???? and it resulted in lance becoming the blandest dude known to pokémonkind) and instead focus on his original gsc character. who. yknow. was sassy as all hell and loved tearing team rocket to shreds. so instead of being some ultra responsible coddling dad-type figure i think he would just be like WHO WANTS TO GO SET A TEAM ROCKET BASE ON FIRE!!!!!!!!!!! and the johto quartet would just all start cheering like maniacs. do you guys remember in gsc when he sent his dragonite to physically attack ariana to get her away from the protagonist (like earlier in the game when he had his dragonite use hyper beam against a grunt) and then strutted up all nonchalantly and went "Hey! Don't be so selfish. Spread the fun around." who is doing it like this man i love him
