#maria's pokemon

[duckapus]

Papa Meowth: Other than Squirtle, does Maria catch any other Pokémon that Ash catches in canon? If you don't want to go through the whole series at once (completely understandable) then just Kanto will do.

Yeah there's a few of Ash's canon Pokemon that Maria gets instead of him.

Maria gets: Squirtle Half the Tauros herd (this also frees them up to each get two other Pokemon in the Safari Zone since they actually have spare 'Balls) Lapras Cyndaquil Phanpy Snivy Sewaddle Roggenrola (the reason I'm giving her so many of Ash's Unova Team is that after the Absolute Mess that is Sinnoh the two of them decided to switch who does the gym challenge and who tags along and provides snarky commentary for the next region. Also just because he gets a lot of Pokemon in Unova) Then Ash gets his full teams in Kalos and Alola (since those teams were so small to begin with) and I haven't figured out anything for Journeys)

Technically she also gets a Pidove, but it's a different Pidove from Ash's and he still gets his Pidove. Her's is male, so they'll at least be visually distinct when they're fully evolved even if Ash and Maria revel a bit in the confusion that comes from both of them having the same Pokemon and refusing to use nicknames.

Also, Primeape ends up with Team Rocket because Maria got a Clefairy that loves martial arts as her first catch who handed Primeape his recently-nonexistent tail and he basically forced "The Angry Red Human" to catch him since he immediately clocked that Team Rocket does basically nothing but follow the main group around and were therefore his best shot at a rematch.

(might post a mostly full list of at least everyone's Kanto catches at some point. Seriously I've got teams fully planned out through Unova and partially-but-subject-to-change for Kalos and Alola (though for Movie Reasons Johto is when certain catches start being major spoilers. assuming I decide to start caring about spoilers))

Last night's sketches! Thank you to @son1c, @chaogongoozles, @hamofjustice, and @fiiresiidefrfr for the requests!

If I had a nickel for every time a massive Japanese media franchise had a highly marketable fan favorite character's origin story involve a sick dying girl's science dad making them, an all powerful lifeform, in some vague plan to try and cure her, and they become friends, but she dies, and the grief drives the character to villainy, and then has some sort of clone angst with one of the heroes... I'd have at least two nickles

There is no way that I'm the only one who sees this comparison, right? A brooding genetically-engineered character, created to be some superior form of life, who was made in secret and who was deeply affected by the loss of a young girl they were best friends with who was related to their creator. Now, I'm not saying Nintendo or Sega copied one another's homework, but I kinda can't avoid seeing it now ^^;

How many times have we done this, Interceptor? You betrayed me at one point.

Some of my favorite manga/anime characters growing up that I blame for giving me queer thoughts. Didn't realize how much media with crossdressing I consumed until I started making this post lol. And, while a lot of the actual LGBT issues were played for laughs in these series, they were all very important to me.

Also I still hold out hope that Hana-Kimi will ever get an anime or that Maria Holic will get a book accurate reboot 🫡

Bring Tessa Elliot back as a (Worker/Murder) Drone

Bring Ambertwo back as a Mewtwo

Bring Maria Robotnik back as a Hedgehog

Do not question how the last one works.

Do not question how any of them work.
