The Gang

[A photo, taken around sunset in Tix garden, while the light is still good. It shows all of Tix' and Olivias Pokémon, as well as their trainers posing for the photo.

They are:

Tix, a slender, ca. 6'3" tall, androgynous person with two-coloured hair, black curls in the front, and white waves in the back. They are wearing a lot of facial piercings and their eyes have two different colours, the left is purple, the right is an icy blue. They make a peace-sign with their hand and hold a black egg with red markings in the other arm.

Olivia, a similarly androgynous person, a lot shorter. They are around 5'2" tall and have a blonde, short and simple hairstyle. They wear neither piercings nor earrings, but have glasses with a round black frame sitting on their nose.

Both trainers wear a light purple apron with a picture of a Koffing with a Moustache and the words "Koffing-Time" on it.

Tix Pokémon:

Coffee the Koffing (m) is floating right next to Tix head. He has a fabulously large moustache and is grinning widely. Around him are no traces of smoke or gas whatsoever.

Bienenstich the Scolipede (f), a very large Pokémon, around 11ft tall and filling the background almost entirely. She wears her signature green apron with a flower design.

Basil the Toxtricity (f). A low-key form who has no particularly distinct visual features. She is making a devils horns sign with her hand.

Poppy the Toxicroak (m). He is standing next to Basil, holding her in his arm. He has 2 metal rings pierced through his horn.

Cream the Haunter (f). The ghost type is floating right above Tix head, showing just how tiny she is. She is giving Tix bunny ears.

Muffin the Roselia (m). He has an average height for a Roselia, but is still small compared to most other pokémon in the picture. His left rose is very small, barely more than a flower bud and has a dark black colour. His right rose is a bright yellow. He also has a faint yellow-ish scar below his left eye.

Cheese the Crobat (f) is a pink shiny variant, flying next to Bienenstichs head, making her wings a pink/greenish mess.

Cracke the Murkrow (f) is sitting on top of Bienenstichs head. She is relatively small for a murkrow but otherwise not special.

Rhubarb the Ekans (m) has straightened himself completely to look like a stick. He is leaning on Tix' leg. His colour is slightly more pink than a typical Ekans (similar to rhubarb)

Chocco the Salandit (m) is sitting right next to Muffin. They do not seem nervous at all, though Chocco puffs is little chest to appear a little bit bigger than he actually is.

Pumpkin the Bellsprout (f) is standing right next to Rhubarb and is holding on to him. She seems a little bit nervous. Her head appears a little bit too big for her slim stem.

Carrot Cake the Clodsire (m) is laying on the ground and seems to be asleep. He is as average as it gets for this kind of pokémon.

Loaf the Trubbish (m) is also quite average, though his trash bag is black instead of the typical green. He is smiling and waving at the camera.

Bun the ultra-domesticated Trubbish (f) is right next to Loaf and has a neutral facial expression. She doesn't have a regular trash bag but a paper bag instead. The visible part of her body looks more like compost than actual waste.

Roll the ultra-domesticated Trubbish (m) is on the other side of Loaf, with a similar body to Bun. He is smaller than her though and is looking a little bid sad.

Appleslice the ultra-domesticated Mareanie (f) is sitting on top of Carrot Cake who seems to be ignoring this. She has no visible spikes, her tentacles are completely smooth.

Caramel the Beedrill (m) is flying next to Coffee. His right drill is chipped at the front.

Tofu the Kalosian Sliggoo (m) is next to Carrot Cake. He is slightly larger than the average Sliggoo and the lump on his back is a little bit deformed. He is also waving at the camera.

Olivias Pokémon:

Marbles the Alolan Exeggutor (m) is standing behind Bienenstich and bending his neck so his head is in frame, even though its upside down. He doesn't have any different distinguishing features.

Hans the Lotad (m) is just next to Tofu and getting pet by him. He has a tiny little flower bud on his back.

Grill the Unovan Darmanitan (m) is grinning widely like it is typcal for his species. He is standing at Olivias feet and gives a thumbs up towards the camera.

The Kalosian the Escavalier (f) is very large and floating behind Olivia. Her armor has a slightly blue tint and her right lance is twisted like a drill.

Beach Ball the Gible (m) is standing next to Marbles in the Background, towering over his trainer. He is enormous and nearly 7 feet tall.]

[macabrecabra]

Now can't have the Silph Bros having a gang without the prominent members of it! Introducing the Nightshade Mafia members under the direct command of Ghast, formerly Hauts' underlings.

Exception is Hund. Hund is only ever with Gen 100% because he's the 100% competent good boy.

Read more for more info and some design notes on each!

Hund VonDoom (Hounddoom)

The ever loyal butler, bodyguard, and all around the one person Gen tells everything to, Hund is often regarded as a member of the family for how he is always with Gen. He is a silent sort, never speaks unless spoken to and follows orders faithfully without question. Probably the only person Gen trusts without a second thought.

The question most have is if Gen and Hund are actually a couple or not which is hard to say as Gen says nothing about it and Hund is a quiet judgmental look to all. However, it can't be understated that no one probably knows Gen best than Hund.

Design Notes: I just imagined this bodyguard of Gen who hides the lower half of their face in their collar, giving them a kind of stern and mysterious look as a minion. Hounddoom because they are good boys and Hund would def have that guard dog vibe!

Kofco & Whezle Smogbur (Wheezing)

With the strange evolution of pokemon without humans about, the Wheezing evolution has taken a turn! Usually the two parts of Wheezing are surgically removed, leaving the two as close brothers. Such an ascension is seen highly in the Koffing community, thus Kofco and Whezle command some level of respect among their fellows.

The two have a rough and tough street-wise attitude and like to think they are the big pokemon on the block, more than willing to get into a scrap and show people who get in the way of the mafia who's boss.... until things get sticky, then they are both looking for the door in a blast of gas attack.

Design Notes: When I started to design their outfits, I kept thinking of Jasper and Horace from 101 Dalmations and the style of clothing they wore and it just really stuck in my head! The tiny hats on their heads was just the icing on the cake <3

Arbel Jessic (Arbok)

Arbel is a classy snake who is in the criminal business to satisfy her lavish spending habits and get access to all the best fashion at a discount. She is not above getting her hands dirty or taking charge of her dumb co-workers is need be. Can be the voice of reason at times in the group, tampering down the chaotic leanings that can happen. She is looking for love and loves to date in her free time, looking for the one.

She can be a bit vain though and when someone makes a comment about her looks she doesn't like, she will be quick to anger and to lash out. She gets along best with Victor in the group, mostly because Victor doesn't know what she is saying half the time... Design Notes: I was channeling Jessie from Team Rocket when making Arbel, just wanting a strong lady in the gang and just really brought the design together in the end <3 the patterns she has is different than official Arbok art as I feel each Arbok has its own special markings!

Victor Belkavitch (Victreebel)

An immigrant from another region, Victor came to Kanto for a new start in life and to take care of his very large extended family of cousins, nephews, grandparents, aunts, and uncles that followed after him. He fell in with the Nightshade Mafia for his impressive work in a bar shootout and has been with them ever since as the pay is good and he does not have to talk much. He is still learning the local language of Kanto and struggles at times with things.

He is the largest one in the gang and can brute strength a lot of things. Loyal to his co-workers whom he treats as family, he is a dependable sort and not above sticking a fight out to keep others safe. Also he is of a pokemon kind that is not above swallowing things whole, including other pokemon when ordered.

Design Notes: As soon as he was named Victor, his design of leather jacket and dark jeans was set in stone as a nod to the dress of gangs/mafias that are found in Eastern Europe. A hat didn't really fit as he had that leaf to be his hat. I just like Victreebels....

Wolbert Buffet (Wobbuffet)

They have been the mafia since it was form as a best friend of Hauts. They actually have the other half of Hauts' hat so between them is the whole hat which means a lot to both of them. Wolbert can come across as rather energetic and a bit absentminded about things, more emotional than most, but more than willing to take the brunt of an attack without hesitation. They took news of Hauts' death hard but remained in the gang to keep an eye on Ghast and make sure he doesn't get into trouble.

They really want to help Ghast in leading the mafia, but they themselves aren't really good at leadership things as motivating people is hard. They just yell loudly and act like they have an idea of what they are doing most of the time. They really shine when it comes to being in a fight or having to get through doors with their sticky fingers.

Design Notes: Wolbert was, by far, the hardest one to design of the gang. Wobbuffet has a simple design that I had to translate into a more anthropomorphic style. Also it felt better with their body type that they probably favor dresses or skirts, so they got a blend of a suit and skirt! Also no shoes, but nice socks!

Gilliad Gligland (Gligar)

Gilliad is the new face on the block and the only one of the mafia who never knew Hauts. Ghast has adopted them as their best friend as a result, teaching them how to be a real ganster! Gilliad is a tad gullible as a result, believing everything they are told. still green about the gills, they get really scared by being in situations and stumble a lot. He's still learning!

Design Note: Given that Gligar has the webbing for gliding, it felt important that their outfit gave them access to their ability naturally and that clothing was designed around them. It is something I'm keeping in mind with designs to take in the pokemon's anatomy when humanizing them! Also having a goofy friend for Ghast was key, so they share similar fashion and being goofy little boys!

Woe fankids be upon ye

Doing a little series where I took some ship requests on my instagram to make them fankids, this one is for me tho (jeanlisa to kick it off whoo 🙌🏻) The lineup so far is Cytham, Kavetham, Lionfish (aka Freminet x Gaming aged up probably idk how old they are canonically), Cynonari, Jealuc, and Beiguang, and feel free to send me some other pairings you wanna see (as long as they are legal pls otherwise I will ignore it 👎)

I'm gonna ramble about some headcanons and lore for them under the cut, continue with caution bc I'm insane

These two are my brainrot rn, don't even joke lad. And I wanna tell yall their name meanings too bc I like them a lot 🥹 Zephra's means "west wind" derived from Greek, and it's the feminine version of Zephyr. Tyrian was a type of purple dye used by the Ancient Phoenicians, huge huge HUGE thanks to my pookie bear @miothefish for helping me out with his name!!! Also he has Lisa's butterfly earring and you can't see bc of the angle but Zephra has the rose that went in her hair holding her ponytail <3

I'm also making a massive family tree for the characters as a go along, and just the jeanlisa tree is taking up half of the canvas bc of the KoF and Sumeru characters since Cyno is their uncle and the rest of the gang are their honorary uncles 😭 I'll be posting that once the series is done/all the requests are finished/I run out of ships and otps I enjoy

Here's an alternative version with some more info on most of the characters I wanted to briefly mention in their relation to them; Tyrian likes calling Eula his aunt too even though she was never really considered one for them so it's kind of like her unofficial title she pretends to dislike but she loves it and dotes on Tyrian 🤭 She and Diluc also helped train Zephra with a claymore and Diluc kind of became a parental figure to her in her teen years after Lisa's passing 🥺 She also feels like she's outshined by Jean and that she's not smart or powerful enough to follow in Lisa's footsteps (something that Lisa wouldn't want anyways bc it led her to her death 😔) rip zephra she's just like me fr

And yeah some Kaeya angst bc he's still going thru it I fear, and Jean is single mombossing but she's worried for zephra which me too dawg, im afraid to say she might be cooked 😦 Zephra is also kind of like a weird mix of Lisa when she was her age and Jean, where overall she's well-mannered and kind but she can be competitive and feel the need to push herself too much and pull a few strings to get what she wants from time to time. Tyrian is a ray of sunshine tho, he has not yet witnessed the horrors 💔 I do think that Jean is also a lot easier on him than her mom was with her so that also helps. He's very shy tho and wants to stick with Zephra or Razor most of the time, and they both have some nasty tan lines from going out with Razor and Klee and Fischl a lot 😔 Cyno also freaking loves them and dotes on them and Tyrian is getting a TCG addiction because of it smh, Cyno is also one of Zephra's favorite people and when she's in Sumeru she stays with him and Alhaitham (bc in my universe they are married ough I love cytham)

And (I think?) Klee physically and mentally ages slower than humans so I think she'd be technically 9 or 10, and Zephra is left with babysitting duty most of the time if she's home on break or smth 😭 Klee really looks up to her tho

Also, I wrote Tyrian's last bullet point like he was super young when Lisa died, but I think he was around 7 so he actually remembers Lisa better than I intended it to sound, he was just younger than Zephra (who was 11 at the time) and just didn't have as much time with her as Zeph did, but his most fond memory of Lisa was reading with her and she probably taught them some potion-making skills too.

I think there will be some abyss angst in here too at some point, since I hc Lisa to be probably an Abyss Lector/Harold (I forget which is which) um so thinking that Zeph and Tyrian experiencing some not normal things happening and Jean doesn't know what to do since Lisa also didn't really know what that dog in her was until it was too late 😔 That's what Kaeya's for tho since he's like the heir of the abyss???? Go off king. Also some touchy ragbros angst bc Kaeya is scared for Zeph knowing how close she is with Luc and he doesn't want him to push her away because of her being from the abyss or smth (they mostly made up but it's still a fear in Kaeya's mind both for him and Jean's kids)

I think that's all I wanted to touch on for now?? Mainly just thinking about domestic fluff and angst all the time now 🥺 Zeph not being able to be open with Jean bc she feels like a disappointment but Jean would literally actually die for her and shes proud of her no matter what ough im going to lose my freak dawg guess who my favorite fankid is it's super hard ik

Send me asks or dms or whatever for more ship requests!!! I'm having so much fun with this dawg 🫶🏻

Cordie boss fights if he was in a romhack, part 1

(but it's his team magma era so he just goes by roy)

Team Magma debuts really late in Emerald but thankfully Cordie's job designation as a scout means that he can show up way ahead of everyone else so his first boss fight would be in Route 112 where he's blocking the entrance to the Fiery Path and keeping an eye on May to let the rest of the team know she's on her way

After he loses he flies away on his Skarmory's back both as foreshadowing that he's totally gonna use a Skarmory in a later fight and to show that THIS ISN'T EVEN HIS FINAL FORM

(The Koffing's borrowed)

His "second" boss fight (but really it's more of a boss fight 1.5) happens in Fallarbor Town with him impersonating Professor Cozmo in order to trick people into thinking he's fine when he's already been kidnapped by Team Magma

There would be a dramatic scene with May and company finding Professor Cozmo and initially it looks like they got ahead of Team Magma and everything turned out fine but then he suddenly attacks

As you can tell by the moveset it's a troll fight that will most likely end in 3 turns which is why it doesn't seriously count but of course with that finished Cordie escapes again with his Skarmory

His real second boss fight happens at Meteor Falls when The Gang arrives to rescue Professor Cozmo, he fights May right before she gets to Tabitha and this time around the gloves are off and he's ready to kick her ass

(Which of course won't happen but he tries his best and that's what matters)

At this point his Vibrava still plays out like a normal Vibrava so despite being very underleveled (Trapinch evolves at lv35) it's not actually that strong because Vibrava's mid as fuck but it is a Dragon-type really early on so there's that surprise

There's a strategy going on with pivoting moves and switching because Skarmory's only 2 weaknesses are types that Houndour and Vibrava are immune to and Voltorb can bring any of them in if its trash coverage doesn't get the job done, he's cooking a little bit there's a concept going on

[cashewally-sarcastic]

okay so you know the ley line stuff with Ruu? I think it would be funny if there was a ley line disorder on stormterror's lair and the mondstadt gang had to watch a time loop of a person that looks and sounds like Venti constantly dying. Venti isn't saying anything cause he's more focused on making sure none of the leyline juice gets into the remains of Decarabian (It hurts seeing his old friends but its been so long that he's made peace with it. Like how an eraser damages the paper's surface).

Traveler is like: Oh i've seen this before. Let's rule of four this!!!

The KoF going into the ley line past ^^^

“Wow wouldn’t it be funny if [says one of the most gut-wrenching things you’ve ever heard]” -steel

Idk man because if it’s NB who’s the center of the leyline issue then like…he’d see Traveler (and the people around so KoF and Venti) and that would probably cause so many emotions/questions on his end. Why does someone look like him? Is that Gunnhildr? Who is the blonde person? Did Decarabian die?

But also if there’s no center of the leyline and it’s just “oops leyline fucked up lmao” (like the hidden strife event) then some historians would have a field day recording all that stuff

[lorekeeper-backset]

New Year, New Me, Same old OCs. Here's a list of my protag OCs/Canon Protags with Headcanon Personalities. Not including Kanto and Johto because I still haven't played those games and my perception of Red is pretty solidly colored by @heavenlysphere's portrayal of him (sorry for tagging you, Maverick) and Alola because I kind of... forgot to make one. I'm also including Protags who serve as rivals if you don't pick them.

Marie "Mare" Lillian Birch: My first ever and longest running Protag OC, she's the protagonist of ORAS and also my fanfic An Account of Rayquaza's Chosen. Short and mad about it she has Aura Powers, allowing her to understand Pokemon, and is the Chosen of Rayquaza meaning Rayquaza likes her a lot and lets her use its power sometimes. Despite being somewhat overpowered, she's limited by her strict moral code and deep well of trauma. Her last name is Birch even though she's the protagonist because Norman is her step-father and her mom is Professor Birch's Sister.

Brendan Birch: A real brat of a boy and Mare's cousin, Brendan is desperate to prove he's better than her at literally anything, something he consistently tries and fails at because, despite claiming to be the best battler in his school, he's really bad at battling. Eventually, he finds enjoyment in something he is good at and actually enjoys and becomes a star Coordinator with the help of Lisia.

Detective Annabelle "Ann" "Dawnbreaker" "Dawn" Berlitz: Sole heir to the Berlitz family fortune and protagonist of Platinum, Ann has an obsession with classic noir style detective stories to the point where her goal in life is to become a Private Detective, much to her parents' chagrin, to the point that she wears a trenchcoat and fedora at all times and has a habit of diving into detective monologues. She goes by the codename Dawnbreaker, shortened to Dawn, because she met Looker and thought the idea of having a codename was really cool and all detectives should have codenames. She is the Chosen of Dialga and uses her powers over time in conjunction with her her partner, Lucas', power over space to solve crimes nobody else can as the Time-Space Detective Agency. It's kinda like Ghost Trick except they can only reverse a death under very specific circumstances.

Detective Lucas "Luca" "Lux" Diamant: An incredibly bright boy from Sandgem town, Lucas shares Ann's interest in Detective stories, gaining a reputation around town as a sort of Encyclopedia Brown-type detective, solving small cases like missing shoes or some kid's con scheme. His intelligence got him tapped by Professor Rowan to be his research assistant, a job he quite enjoys. He goes by the codename Lux for the same reason Ann goes by Dawn. He is the Chosen of Palkia an uses his power over space in conjunction with Ann's power over time to solve cases no one else can. He is also descended from Adaman and consequently is cousins with Calem and Perrin.

Hilda Kyoko: A rough and tumble girl from the streets of Castelia City, Hilda keeps the streets of Castelia safe from unwanted troublemakers (gangs, mafia, Team Plasma, etc) as part of the Castelia City Girls, a band led by Roxie (the band would later move to Virbank City and change its name to Koffing and the Toxics following Hilda's departure and Roxie becoming a Gym Leader, leaving Castelia's protection in the hands of a successor band that took up the band's old name). She is the Hero of Truth and Chosen of Reshiram, revealing the truth about Ghetsis to the world. Her connection to N isn't as strong in this universe since Mare serves as his foil instead so the reason she leaves is to track down an escaped Ghetsis, who she believes to have fled the region. She's also friends with Victini who will occasionally lend her its power when it feels like it.

Hilbert Ashton: An ordinary teenager from Nuvema Town, Hilbert dreams of becoming the very best, like no one ever was. A veritable Pokemon Master, one could say. And the first step on that journey is to become Champion of the Unova Region.

Rosa Florence Annie Bridgewood aka Stella Black aka The Riolu/Lucario Girl: A bubbly, happy-go-lucky teen actress whose breakout role as The RIolu Girl aka Stella Black in the first Brycen-Man film has shot her into the spotlight. She convinces her agent to let her go on a Journey with her friend and rival Hugh as a publicity stunt to promote the upcoming movie "Brycen-Man Strikes Back." As part of the stunt all League battles have to be taken on in-costume and in-character as The Riolu Girl (and later the Lucario Girl when her Lucario evolves), with the Gym Leaders being hyped up as sensational villains (some of them, like Elesa, get super into the role while others, like Cheren, put no effort into trying to sell it at all). Most of her battles against Neo Plasma are also taken on in-costume. She is not a Chosen but is best friends with most Legenaries, gaining the favor of both the Legendary Birds an Legendary Beasts as well Victini, Meloetta, Reshiram, and Zekrom. Even Kyurem likes her and Kyurem doesn't like anyone.

Nathan "Nate" Lumiere: An aspiring Cinematographer, Nate is an intern at Pokestar Studios. He finally gets a chance at making his dream a reality when Rosa asks for him specifically to film her battles against the Gym Leaders.

Calem "Cal" Xavier and Serena "Rena" Yvonne: They are a pair, do not separate. Despite not being related, Calem and Serena refer to eachother as Brother and Sister and share a deep bond, essentially being raised together. Calem is the calm and rational one while Serena is the Chaos Gremlin of the two, leading to much siblingly bickering and teasing. Excelling at Multi-Battles, each sibling can practically read the mind of the other making them a terrifying combination in battle but also meaning any matches they have with eachother always end in a draw. Two of the few Protags to actually become Champion and keep the role, they're referred to as the Twin Champions despite Serena being a year older than Calem. Calem is descended from Adaman, making him cousins with Perrin and Lucas, and Serena is descended from Irida.

Kai Riposte: A fencing prodigy and the protagonist of SwSh, Kai prefers fencing to Pokemon battles, going on a Journey to make sure her friend Hop doesn't get into too much trouble. Originally from Spikemuth, a fact her mom insists they keep secret so the neighbors won't judge, much to her annoyance, she doesn't get the big deal about Dynamaxing and almost never uses her Dynamax band.

Juliana Violeta: A quiet girl who is incapable of using first person pronouns (that's not a metaphor she literally cannot use I, Me, etc), she prefers to simply not speak at all, and when she does speak she keeps it short and concise. Despite all appearances, she's actually very friendly and open to making new friends. Nemona, who does enough talking for the both of them, appoints her as Vice President of the Student Council with Penny as the Treasurer (cause she's good with numbers and the position supplies her with certain privileges the can exploit for the purpose of Operation Starfall) and Arven as the Secretary (because they needed a Secretary and it allowed him and Juliana more time to speak). She bonds with Miraidon.

Florian Escarleta: A boy who is even quieter than Juliana. Unlike her, he prefers to keep to himself, being extremely shy and having difficulty interacting with other people. He is very creative and enjoys telling stories but is too nervous to show them to anyone. He eventually becomes Student Council Stenographer, keeping record of everything that happens in the Student Council Room as well as transcribing Student Council Meetings, revealing a surprising amount of wit on his part that he'd never display verbally. He bonds with Koraidon, an impressive feat since it hates everything.

[big-chungus-the-gyarados]

Which of your Pokemon….

👽 has the weirdest origin story?

@koffing-time

We're all weird down here but if I was to pick the strangest beast of my gang,

Jellie I found while on a beach visiting friends, he was actually known as a nuisance around there, picking on other pokemon and stealing food from the wild bird mon, but it was noted that he'd only pick on pokemon that were with their trainers, as if he was jealous or something, he just hates birds aside from that, and I left my other mon with my aunt while I was away so I happened to not have a mon he could be jealous of, so long story short we bonded in a way akin to someone petting a wild skitty only for it to never leave your side when you walk away, and he's been one of my most affectionate mon ever since, lil dude just wanted a friend

Yes I have other pokemon and while yes he's adjusted to them he's still the clingiest, can't go anywhere without this goober

🤙

[professorcocoa]

🧼: do they like to be clean

🧦: do they like to be dirty

aaaaaall the krabbies!!! (and Salsa if you want)

@koffing-time

Team Menace are pretty self-sufficient in most cases, so they take baths by themselves, but I did in fact notice some interesting things about each one of them

Salsa doesn't like taking baths that much, he just dips in the water when he gets too dirty, but the team doesn't approve that, so they usually gang up on him to clean their boss. He hates that, but he also likes to see the team working together like that.

Romana and Marinara take turns cleaning each other. Rome scrubs her sister slowly and gently and Mari does it fast and rough. I used to consider that kinda weird since they seem to love each other so much, but Mari isn't trying to hurt her sister, Rome just likes to be cleaned like that for some reason.

Marguerita is the main one when it comes to cleaning herself and the team. She checks on everyone to see if they are dirty and forces them into the water if they are. She will refuse to bathe until the rest of the team comes out squeaky clean.

Carbonara also hates taking baths, but being as weak as she is, Marge always cleans her herself. Carb hates that, but she there's nothing she can do about it.

Pizza and Pasta are like Rome and Mari, but reversed. They throw mud and dirt at eah other for fun and when it's time to take a bath, instead of helping each other, they simply keep trying to get each other dirty again. It's quite intersting to see how competitive they can get with this.

[koffing-time]

Poke Ball - If you have pokémon what kind of poke balls are they kept in?

also how dare you not share Loaf more /hj

>@ferrunough

Before i answer the actual question, a quick clarification: because my new home (the café, i live upstairs) is not as big as I'd like, I don't have all my Pokémon living with me. And because of that, I didn't introduce them yet, which is also true for Loaf. That's also the reason for the construction so I'll have enough space for everyone to live here. (It's gotten pretty cramped, actually, originally i only wanted to bring 4 Pokémon here before i got more space, now it's 8 of them...)

But now to the question:

//quick ooc: i think it makes sense that people can just, rehome a Pokémon from one pokeball to another.

Coffee (the Koffin): he lives in a basic pokeball. I was thinking about getting him a new one, but he never really cared for it, so i didn't.

Muffin: also a basic one. I, uh, didn't get to go shopping with him yet. He probably would want a different one.

Cream: she lives in a repeat ball. I don't quite remember how that came to be, actually, but it's the one i caught her with.

Basil: quick ball

Poppy: also a quick ball. Both were originally caught in great balls, but for some reason Basil really didn't like it, and Poppy just went along with it.

Bienenstich: a Luxury Ball. It was a gift from dad. At the time, i could never have afforded one.

Cheese (the new Crobat): a basic pokeball. It's what i had around, but I'll definitely go shopping with her soon, so she can decide if she wants a different one. And take Muffin, of course.

Cracker (the new Murkrow): also a basic pokeball, same thing as with Cheese.

And since you asked, I'll share the Pokémon who don't live with me as well:

Loaf (my Trubbish): a heal ball

Carrot Cake (my Clodsire): a primier ball.

Pumpkin (my Bellsprout): a park ball. I bought that ball from a quite shady guy some time back. I don't think they're for sale regularly, but Pumpkin loves it.

Chocco (my salandit): a dusk ball. He's an edgy boy.

Mini Fanfic #1090: Video Calling Mom (King of Fighters)

12:54 p.m. at Borgard's Residence's Living Room.......

The words "Incoming Call" appears on a blue laptop's screen. As a hand reach and press down the mouse pad to answer the call, a small square begins to pop up of a woman in long, brown hair waving 'hello' with a bright smile on her face.

????: Hiiiii honey!~

Shingo: (Happily Waves Back at the Woman on Screen) Hi mom!~ it's been so long since I've seen you. How have you been?

Ms. Yabuki: I've been doing well so far. Relaxing, getting out the house to shop and see friends, missing my three, darling angels to pieces almost everyday, rinse and repeat. Ooh! (Ducks Down to Get Something From the Left Side of the Foot of a Chair She's Sitting on) Speaking of shopping, I was at the mall yesterday and stumbling upon this cute thing~ (Shows Shingo a Plushie of Himself Wearing his Old School Uniform)

Shingo: ('Gasps') No way! I have plushies of myself selling around your area!?

Ms. Yabuki: (Happily Nodded) Yep-Yep!~ I got from Build-A-Fighter Workshop. They sell all the well known fighters from that KOF tournament you'd always go to. In fact, words has it that you just so happens to become a fan favorite. Even more so than Shizuka and Saisyuu-San's boy~

Shingo: (Almost at a Loss For Words) ................I never thought I will ever happy to have my own marketable plushies up until now.

Kula: (Walks into the Room) Hey, Shingo, whatcha doin-(Gasps Loudly at the Sight of althea Shingo Plushie on his Laptop Screen) Oh my goooosh!~ (Quickly Makes her Way to the Sofa and Sits Next to Shingo) Is that a mini plushie of you!?~

Rock: (Walks into the Room Along with K Behind Him to Take a Look at the Plushie on Screen) It looks cute.

K': (Gives Shingo a Bit of a Teasing Smirk) And less obnoxious than the original.

Shingo: (Gives K' a Deadpinned Look on his Face) Gee, thanks, K'.

Mary: (Walks in the Room and Smacks K' Upside the Back of his Head) Quit being rude. (Gives Shingo a Reassuring Smile) Ignore him, kiddo, you're a sweetheart to be around.

Shingo: (Smiles Brightly) Thanks, Ms.Mary!

Kula: Yeah, Shingo, you're way more sweet and fun than Mr. Lazybone behind you!

K': Better being lazy than being a energetic brat like you.

Kula: blows a Raspberry at K' while white haired boy points two middle fingers at her up and down.

Rock: ('Sigh') Knock it off already, two......

Mary: Seriously........

Ms. Yabuki: (Giggles Softly) Oho my!~ Are these are the lovely friends you told so much about, Shingo honey?

Shingo: (Smiles Sheepishly) More or less, yeah.....(Turns to the Gang Besides and Behind Him) Hey, guys!

Everyone stops bantering to one another as they give Shingo his attention.

Shingo: (Presenting Everyone to his Mother) I'd like to finally introduce you to the beautiful saint of a woman who gave me and my sister life, my mom!

Ms. Yabuki: (Giggles Softly While Blushing and Playfully Waving Off) Oh dear~

Shingo: And mom, allow me to introduce you to my lovely friends! Kula Diamond.

Kula: [Happily Waves at Mrs. Yabuki on Screen) Hiiiii!~

Shingo: Rock Howard Bogard.

Rock: (Smiles Softly at the Screen) Pleased to meet you.

Shingo: K' Dash.

K': 'Sup.

Shingo: And another beautiful saint who's willing to put up with our shenanigans for longest time now: Blue Mary!

Mary: (Starts Blushing a Bit While Smiling a Little and Moving the Front of her Hair Back) Honestly, Shingo, I'm not THAT much of a saint.....Still, it's nice to finally meet you, Mrs. Yabuki. (Happily Bows to Shingo's Mother)

Ms. Yabuki: (Smiles Brightly) Likewise!~ (Clasps her Hands Together) I cannot thank you all enough for looking after my precious, baby boy in Southtown.

Shingo: (Starts Blushing in Embarrassment) Mooooom.....We talked about this. I'm not a little kid anymore......

Ms. Yabuki: I know we did, sweetie. (Uses the Edge of her Knuckles to Wipe a Few Tears Away From her Eyes) But it's so hard for mothers, such as myself, to accept that fact completely.

Mary: (Let's Out an Exhausted Sigh) Girl, I know the feeling! (Walks Over to Rock and Hugs Him) Our babies are growing up too fast....

Rock:: (Puts on a Deadpinned Look on his Face Before Sighing Again) You too, Mary?

Mary: (Pouts at her Rocky) Yes, me too! I helped your dad raised you since you were a little tyke and now here you are getting older as the years goes by and it's too freaking fast! I hate it!

Rock: Well, that's how life and reality works! Neither of us can change how fast time flies no how much either of us want to. (Smiles Softly) But even that won't change the fact that you're one of the most important people in my life.

Mary: (Heart Begins to Melt in Pure Happiness) Rocky......You're important to me too~ Always~ (Gives Rock a Kiss on the Cheek)

Shingo/Kula: AWWWWWW~

Ms. Yabuki: So precious~

K: Too cutesy for my liking.

Mary: Awww K'~ Are you feeling left out in the Hugfest already?~

K': (Scoffs While Crossing his Arms) Yeah, like I'd ever wanted to be involved in some hug-!? (Immediately Gets Pulled into Mary and Rock's Hug Before Sighing) fest.

Rock: (Smirks Playfully) Admit it. You're loving this right now.

K': (Rolls his Eyes) Well, it's not inherently the worse thing in the world-

Kula: GROUP HUGS!~ (Happily Joins in on the Hugfest Along with Shingo)

K': .......But you people are pushing it.

Kula: Oh don't be such a sour puss. Group Hugs are the best.

K': Yeah, for losers maybe.

Shingo: (Smirks Teasingly) Well, I don't see you trying to break free~

Kula: (Starts Giggling Softly) Which makes you a loser too!~

K': ('Tch') Please. I'm way more cooler than all of you in this room combined.

Rock: Even Terry?

K': ESPECIALLY Terry.

Mary: Yeah, right!

Kula: Get real!

Shingo: He's the Legendary Wolf for a reason, you know!?

Mrs. Yabuki giggles softly at the group's back and forth banter until a doorbell is heard in the house.

Mary: Huh. Looks like we got company.

K': Someone get the door.

Everyone: Not it!

K': (Puts on a Sly Smirk) Not it.

Rock: You did that on purpose, didn't you?

K': Yep. Now, get off, losers.

Everyone else groans and reluctantly breaks up the group hug as K' makes his way to the door.

K': (Opens the Door) Welcome to the Losers residence, with the expectation of yours truly.

Rock: (From the Room) Delusion will get you nowhere!

Leona: (Standing in Front of the Doorway as She Casually Crosses her Arms) K' Dash. Good to see you're still as blunt as always.

K': (Shrugs) Yeah, well, being around these dorks almost everyday will do that to ya. What brings you here?

Leona: I was given a free time to myself from the colonel, for the rest of the day and decided to spend the rest of it with you guys, if you're not too busy that is.

K': Nah. (Points at the Room Behind Him) We're not doing much either, except meeting Shingo's mom for the first time.

Leona: Wait......(Lowers Her Arms as Her Eyes Slowly Begins to Widened in Fear at the Realization) Shingo-Kun's mother is here!?

K': (Rubbing the Back of his Head Back and Forth) I mean, I wouldn't say she's here's physically if that's what you're worried about. We're only talking to her on video chat. (Turns Back to Leona as He Raises an Eyebrow) What are you doing?

Leona: (Straightens Up her Hair and Tidying the Clothes She's Wearing in a Bit of a Panicked State) H-How do I look? Decent? Above average? (Turbs Back to K') Remotely presentable!?

K': Relax, Heidern Jr., you look fine enough as it is.

Leona: Are you sure? I-I can run back and change of-

K': ('Sigh') Would you quit your worrying already? Of course, I'm sure. Have I ever been dishonest to you? On second thought, don't answer that.

Shingo: (Makes his Way to the Doorway) Hey, K', mom's about to tell us a story about- (Gasps Before Smiling at a Familiar Face in Front of Him) Leona-san!~

Leona: (Shyly Waves Hello to her Boyfriend With a Small Smile) H-Hi darling. I hope you've been doing well.

Shingo: (Smiles Brightly) I'm doing great today. What about you?

Leona: I-

K': Your homegirl here is getting cold feet over meeting your mom.

Leona: (Glares at Comrade) K'!

K': Hey, don't try and hide it now. It's way too obvious to ignore.

Leona: Well, y-yeah! But- (Catches K' Raising an Eyebrow at Her Again and Shingo's Now Worried Look on hie Face Before Sighing in Defeat) Nevermind. You speak the truth....

K': ('Hmph') Damn right I do. I'm the only non loser here after all.

Shingo: (Gives K' a Deadpinned Look on his Face) You're still going on about that?

K': (Starts Walking Back to the Room) Yeeeuuuup. And I ain't gonna stop either.

Shingo: Of course you won't. (Turns Bacl to his Girlfriend) Are you okay?

Leona: (Nodded To Shingo) I am. It's....just my nerves getting the better of me is all.

Shingo: Hey, trust me, I get it. I'm still nervous just thinking about meeting your dad one of these days in the future.

Leona: (Gives her Boyfriend the Cutest Pout Imaginable) Shingooooo!

Shingo: (Quickly Smiles Sheepishly) Sorry, sorry! I know you already told over and over again to not worry, but it's kinda hard not to when you got reminded to meet him in a month or two.

Leona: ('Sigh') I, again, apologize for that. (Scowls at the Thought of What Happened That Evening) It seems one of my superiors doesn't know the concept of keeping it to himself.....

Shingo: (Chuckles Lightly) Yeah, but it was bound to happen sooner or later, so it's no harm done. mostly. (Gently Grab Hold of Leona's Hands) Hey there's no need to worry. My mom is one of the most sweetest person in the wholewide world, there's no way she would think badly of you.

Leona: Even if my confidence will begin to crack?

Shingo: ESPECIALLY when your confidence starts cracking. You are dating her nervous wreck of a son after all~ (Playfully Winks at Leona)

Leona: (Giggles Softly) I am~ And I love him very much.

Shingo: I love you too~ (Gives Leona a Kiss on the Forehead)

?????: Shingo honey?

The couple turns around to see the gang coming towards the doorway, with Kula holding Shingo's laptop, having it and Mrs. Yabuki face towards her own son.

Ms. Yabuki: Is everything alright over her- (Suddenly Notices a Blue Haired Girl Standing Next to Shingo) Oh. Hello, dear. Who might you be?

Shingo: Mom, I'd like to introduce you to Leona Heidern, my girlfriend.

Leona: (Properly Bows to Shingo's Mother) Pleased to meet you, ma'am.

Ms. Yabuki: (Eyes Begins to Widened in Genuine Surprise as She Coves her Mouth) You are his girlfriend? (Eyes Begins to Tear Up) My baby boi?

Shingo: (Eyes Widened in Fear) Oh no.

Leona: Y-Yes. We've been together for quite a while now.

Kula: (Smiles Brightly) Four months to be exact!~

Mrs. Yabuki: Four months!? You moved here, made new friends, and got yourself a job at a coffee shop, and NOW here you are getting yourself a girlfriend for FOUR MONTHS!? Why are you growing up so fahahaahaaaaast!~ (Burst Out Crying)

Shingo: ('Sigh') And there it is......My mom, ladies and gentlemen.

Leona: (Giggles Softly) She seems to love her baby boi very much~

Shingo: (Rolls his Eyes) That she does. To an overbearing sense.....

Rock: (Starts Nodding to Shingo) I feel your pain, brother.

Mary: (Pouts at Rock Beside Him) Oh come on. I'm not THAT overbearing-

Rock: I learned how to rode a motorcycle for the first time with Terry teaching me yesterday.

Mary: (Slowly Turns to Rock With a Surprised Look on her Face as Her Eyes Begins to Tear Up as Well) R-Really?

Rock: Yep. Even got my license and everything. (Shows Mary his Official Motorcycle License)

Mary: MY BABY BOYYYYY!~ (Immediately Pulls Rock Into Another Hug as She Bursts Out Crying)

Rock: See? Same pain.

K': (Smirking the Whole Time) Admit it. You two love being Mommas' Boys.

Rock/Shingo: Shut up.

Ms. Yabuki: Leona, dear?

Leona: Yes, ma'am?

Ms. Yabuki: ('Sniff') I know this is too much to ask, but.....('Sniff') Would you mind hugging my only son for me please? ('Sniff') The very thought of him being far away from me aches my heart ever so~

Shingo: ('Sigh') Mom, it's not that big of a deal. We'll see each other again. Eventually...... And hopefully.

Ms. Yabuki: (Eyes Starts Watering Up Again) I hope so......

Leona: (Giggles Once More) I got you covered, Mrs. Yabuki. (Gives Shingo a Loving Hug) I've been wanting to hug him all day today, in fact~

Kula: (Givesthe Laptop to K' Before Joining in on the Shingo Hugfest) Me too!~ We love you, Shingo~

Shingo: (Let's Out Another Sigh Before Smiling Again) Love you guys too.

Misty's Starmie actually got regenerated when sprayed with water in a later episode (Bye Bye Butterfree if I recall correctly), and that's not even counting what happened with Staryu when it got hit with Stun Spore. There's very little indication Ash was going to win for sure. It was a stalemate at best (especially if Misty decided to order Starmie to jump into the pool). The only thing I can even slightly agree with you about was Pikachu, and even there, I've seen Pikachu lose against Pokemon he most certainly WAS capable of handling.

Besides, need I remind you of what happened back in Episode 3 regarding Ash and Team Rocket? Ash sent out his Caterpie, which was explicitly weak enough to be captured without a fight, near dead from a prior encounter with Pidgeotto, and was at a type disadvantage on top of ALL of that regarding Ekans and Koffing (and that's of course not even getting into the vast difference regarding experience between them, being at least a year apart from it). Even legitimately, he would have been a goner under most circumstances (and in that case, it was a blatant case of cheating on Team Rocket's part due to ganging up on Ash). What Misty's sisters said there would have very easily applied to Caterpie in that event. Yet guess what, Caterpie ended up handing them their butts, EFFORTLESSLY, DESPITE being near dead, a feat that even impressed Misty at the time I should add. If Ash was able to pull that off, I wouldn't even be surprised if Misty pulled off something similar in that Gym Battle. What happened in Episode 3 is actually one of the biggest reasons I'm not so sure Ash would have actually been given a guaranteed win regarding Misty (Brock, yes, that one DEFINITELY had Ash all but winning, but Misty was way too ambiguous). Under that logic, we might as well say Team Rocket won against Ash back then, and we all know how THAT turned out. Would have said this even if I hated her as much as you do.

Random Genshin Headcanon time:

There are three siblings in total of the Ryugazaki household: Asami, Kaede, and Haruto.

Their father is an active staff member of the Shuumatsuban under the Yashiro Commission. Just like Ogawa, he delivers orders and receives reports for ambush missions. Their mother, however, works alongside Aratani as an event manager for the Yae Publishing House.

None of the siblings have the same visions. Asami is an dendro catalyst, Kaede is an electro sword, and Haru is a hydro claymore.

Asami more than likely left Inazuma at 16/17 to study at the Akademiya in Sumeru. She always wanted a career in medicine, but she wouldn’t have achieved her goals if she stayed home. As of right now, her and her ex-husband own a small clinic in Mondstat. They take care of everyone, but most of their patients have been member of the KOF and sometimes Bennett.

Prior to the vision hunt decree, Kaede wanted to be a renowned violinist and travel all over Teyvat. Haru didn’t know what he wanted to do, but he was a member of the Arataki gang.

While both Kaede and Haru managed to flee Inazuma during the vision hunt decree, they also ended up getting separated in the process. Kaede ended up in Mondstat- but Haru somehow ended up in Fontaine.

Currently Haru is working as a Magician’s assistant, while Kaede is working under Lisa as her library assistant until she saves up enough mora to head off to Fontaine.

[seginbeats]

Various Headcanons Pt. 1

(In no particular order of importance)

Asking him how he wound up in this situation never leads to a solid answer; Giacomo has the tendency to give a different story to different people-- partially because he is jarred to be a part of the organization in the first place. Over time, Giacomo's answer winds up becoming: I needed to feel useful. His relationship with his friends in Team Star are strained at this point, but they still have some communication.

The boy got hazed like CRAZY his first month or so in Rocket. Older grunts took advantage of his naive attitude and used it to their advantage. The most memorable hazing incident involved him getting stuck in the warp pad room for an hour; shout out to the stray Koffing-- he was able to latch on and float off of the ground to safety.

He gets walked all over by the same older grunts, throwing their menial work onto him, until he eventually stands up for himself and pummels a few of them with Kingambit. (Not just the Pokemon, the grunts themselves). Giacomo winds up having the "quiet kid in the back of the class" vibe, and people learn to not mess with him too hard.

Over time, he graduates from typical theft and smuggling assignments (Sableye pulls heavy work in that department). Giacomo has the chance to show his computer skills off to a higher ranked officer, explains that he assisted in hacking the LP system in Paldea, and starts taking on cyber criminal work, not TOO different from what he did with Segin Squad. His point of focus is to try and crack into the system that tracks trainer IDs on Poke Balls; many regional governments are aware of the increase in Pokemon theft and trafficking, and keep a registry of IDs that are scanned when a Poke Ball is checked in at a Pokemon Center (comparable to how cars are registered to owners). Pokemon that do not match the trainer's ID are flagged-- and if they do not have data connected to the Pokemon being gifted, or traded, they are flagged as stolen, and authorities are made aware of it. Giacomo is assigned to a team to help bypass the system, and remove the flags from stolen Pokemon moved by Rocket.

He does eventually make a few friends in the organization, but keeps to himself for the most part. Working on his music is still his main point of motivation-- and the money he makes with Rocket is more than enough for him to be able to spend a lot of his free time on his passion. It's the main thing that helps him cope with the things he sees, hears and experiences with the gang; Giacomo's music definitely takes on a heavier energy at times in order to vent.

He's got a small apartment in Goldenrod. Bare essentials, he doesn't need much, but it sure as hell beats being homeless in Paldea. There's a few venues he DJs at, but, he keeps his face covered with different DJ masks and helmets, and always has his neck covered.
