Medea Played Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, The DLC's (Part I)

Previously on Shit-post Theater

This. That. Also This. That too.

Yeah, it's been a minute. I've been holding off on doing one of these since the first DLC that dropped back in December really didn't wow me as much as I thought it would. So I waited until the second one dropped. Only to learn that an epilogue was coming soon thereafter. That was awfully kind of them. Okay, sit back.

Maybe throw away that sandwich you've been holding onto since November of 2022.

At the start, Jacq-strap tells you about an opportunity to go on a school trip to Kitakami. A region that was just pulled out of thin air...

And here we are!

You're in Kitakami with three randos from the academy, being chaperoned by Ms. Briar, who is an instructor at Blueberry Academy in Unova. And if that doesn't sound familiar to you, it will soon enough.

Soon after, you are accosted and insulted by one of Blueberry Academy's finest asses, Carmine.

The little one behind Carmine is her little brother Kieran. Now that I finished that interruption. I gotta do something really important.

There we go. I am complete. I can finally get a Clefable in these games.

A girl and her Clefable. Is there anything more perfect in this world?

I suppose I should look around this small region.

There's only one Pokemon Center. And it's an outdoor facility just like Paldea.

Gender neutral bathrooms along with boy/girl ones? Uh-oh, don't tell the right-wing weirdos on X.

More pokemon to catch as well. Even Jacq-strap gives you a special egg. I hope it's something...

Sigh. Gible, use Draco Meteor.

And then we meet these two oddballs. O'Nare and...the other one. I don't remember the other one. Biff or Billy or Monty Q Moneybags. Shit, I don't care. They're part of the Pokemon version of the Illuminati. And you'll find them in weird places throughout Kitakami and Paldea. Even on the jagged tippy-tops of the Great Crater. Follow them enough times and O'Nare will battle you a couple of times and you can get a few goodies like nuggets, big nuggets, and a phone case.

There's also a rumor that these two are really Nemona's parents. There's no proof of that and as of this date of posting, we don't know Nemona's parents. I have theories that she's the product of Goku and one of the compulsive gamblers on Kakegurui.

The point of this school trip is to go all over Kitakami and take selfies in front of certain landmarks. Each place tells you parts of a story involving a man, an ogre pokemon, and three "savior" pokemon. Through it all, you're with Kieran. That shy little cinnamon roll.

And then it's time for this mask festival. And you meet Kieran's grandpar...

Huh.

I could be wrong, but did Jessie and James wear disguises like this long ago? Nope? Sorry, my imagination! Okay, moving on.

At this festival, you can play this Ogre-busting game where you have to place mochis up before certain hungry pokemon eat em' up.

You can keep playing this game for a chance at winning a shiny Munchlax.

During the festival, you and Carmine come across that ogre pokemon mentioned prior and a teal mask. Hence, the name of the first DLC.

From this point on, you're going to learn more about Ogerpon. How he's not a bad pokemon and that the tale is fabricated.

And all of this is destroying the cinnamon roll. Kieran always loved the ogre from the stories and feels a little betrayed when you and Carmine hide the new revelations from him.

He is now a stale cinnamon roll.

It's not long before the three "savior" pokemon from the story crash the DLC and run amok all over Kitakami. Eating everything, stealing Ogerpon's precious masks, and turning into titan-sized pokemon.

So, let's get all of these masks back for Ogerpon and defeat those giant, toxic nightmares.

Ogerpon gets a happy ending where the villagers apologize for how it was treated by their ancestors.

Kieran will fight you again for Ogerpon, which ends something like this.

Oh, get up off the floor you drama queen. Shinji Ikari has more dignity than you right now.

And then you fight Ogerpon in a battle.

It's going to be tough since it has four masks, he's tera during the whole battle, and each mask changes his second type. But once defeated, you can catch it with 100% rate.

That's actually it. I was surprised when I finished it so fast. I was worried about taking too long playing it because I had a birthday trip around the same time of release. Speaking of...

I still find this cute.

After the Teal Mask main story, there were a few things we could do.

Like donating your hard-earned moolah to the caretaker in Kitakami. I know he ain't worth it like Honey in Sword/Shield, but...

Nah, I've got nothing.

You can finish off your Kitakami pokedex. There should be 200 entries. And if you fill 150 entries, you can help Perrin.

First of all, we were all wrong about who Adaman was ancestor to. I still want to believe that Adaman is somehow connected to Mikey from Tokyo Revengers. It's not possible, but I'd like to. Good on the creators for giving us Perrin in this game.

The game takes a small turn into Pokemon Snap! territory for a second as you have to take snapshots of pokemon in the wild.

And then you battle the special Hisuian pokemon.

This little fella is different from Legends Arceus. This is known as the Bloodmoon Ursaluna. And no, you can't evolve your Ursarring in this game. After you finish this mini game, Perrin will reward you with Hisuian Growlithe.

Fast forward three months later when you get that call from Clavell and has an old friend of his who wants to meet you.

Let's checkmark another gay couple to the Scarlet/Violet game I approve of.

Cyrano here is the director of Blueberry Academy and wants you to be an exchange student. Remember, this is the school that Kieran and Carmine go to and that Briar teaches at.

And that's it from me. Okay, go on and get out of here. Feed your Koraidon a sandwich.

To be continued.

Are you prepared for the Biology finals with Mr. Jacq??

[fanbles]

Here's a preview of my headcanon designs of the lab trio when Arven was first born.

Clavell isn't fully grey yet, but the grey streaks are still noticeable. He's the strictest of the three about PPE; he wears protective gloves and everything. Clavell used to ignore Jacq's antics, but loosens up a little after Arven is born.

Sada hasn't fully embraced her prehistoric side because she still valued functionality over aesthetic. She still has touches of it in her design; she's not as anal about safety as Clavell. Sada used to be more prone to joining Jacq's antics, but she becomes more serious when she's fully consumed by her research.

Jacq drives Clavell bonkers with how casual he is about PPE. Clavell keeps buying Jacq hairclips to keep his bangs out of his hair and Jacq keeps losing them. He's also the most likely to sing along to the radio or start an impromptu dance session.

Director Cyrano continues to surprise!

But it’s complicated. Note Volo’s reaction to the words “Volo’s love for her.” To me it suggests that Volo himself never saw what he feels for Togepi as “love” and that he’s told himself that how well he takes care of the Pokémon he wields is a pragmatic means to an end rather than from a place of truly caring deeply for them. This aligns with how “love for Pokémon” is not a topic that scores high with him at the Lodge and his whole “working alongside Pokémon is not the same as wielding them!” stance. So hearing N confirm that Togepi loves him and regards his affectionate treatment and caretaking as love for her that makes her happy shakes Volo a good bit, as he’s unprepared to deal with the implications of this and that maybe he should pursue a more equal bond of partnership with his Pokémon companions like most other trainers on this island have.

"VoLo DoEsN't CaRe AbOuT hIs PoKeMoN" Yup! Clearly he doesn't! 😂

Jacq: How many kids do you have?

Sorry folks, I'm caught up with so many things to do regarding documentation and stuff, I'm actually having a hard time to draw for now. But I'll try to answer everyone's ask as soon as I can, really! Don't give up on me 😩

Ms. Dendra's Medicham is the mother of the Tulip's bodyguards.

Dendra specifically bred them so they'd be especially tough and resilient, but also so they would have the discipline to be able to go with Tulip wherever she went.

They unfortunately tend to forget their strength however, so they're not used in Gym Battles.

I like head cannons about the teachers in Paldea but please give me your head cannons about them being teachers. Educators. They're all pretty spoiler-free, so I feel confident posting some of mine:

- Mr. Jacq can be fooled into thinking he didn't assign homework.

- If you tell Mr. Salvatore you have a crush on someone in your class, he will move your seats closer together and basically be the best wingman a teacher can be.

- Mr. Hassel would never scorn the anime art style.

- Ms. Raifort is prone to going on tangents.

- Ms. Dendra will approach students who are being too noisy and make them exercise with her

Hello its the n*edle anon again-

Idea that Arven struggles to take care of his hair, so he has Clavell brush it for him. He's like 16 just handing Clavell a hairbrush like: "Dad..."

Clavell became unexpectedly good at styling hair. Braids, ponytails or just combing them.

After the first couple of times Arven (like, 10ish) asked him for help, he called one of Arven’s classmate mother and desperately asked her to teach him how to do it

Now he’s a master.

If you see Arven with a little braid, of which perhaps he didn’t even notice, you know who did it

-

Nemona sometimes asks for help as well, Jacq and Tyme too.

At the academy Saguaro and Clavell are the designated hairstylists
