Sword playthrough 1, a normal playthrough: normal protagonist, sad to leave a teammate behind when they’ve been around for so long but did a couple of times anyway

Sword playthrough 2, a grass first-form run: more eccentric, got a few gifts from friends of rarer grass-types she likes, also shuffled her team around some to accommodate gifts, hesitant to dynamax, aside from the Kabu battle when her team agreed because that was the only way to win (might have dynamaxed against Leon? I don’t remember though oops)

Sword playthrough 3 (in progress), a first-form dragon pseudo run (literally fighting Kabu as I write this so may or may not dynamax against Opal because fuck): really stubborn, probably will have obedience issues eventually (canonically because dragons are hard to train, in-game...I was dumb so I had to hatch all the eggs on the file that bred them instead of on the actual play file. Hasn’t come back to bite me yet, knock on wood, but I am very sure that I will inevitably run into obedience issues), they will not take anyone’s shit and are kind of a dick but they’re still pretty cool

Also my Max Raid escapades are not canon, I dynamax all the time in those and I really just do those because I like them and they get me candy so I don’t have to grind against wild Pokemon

Unwritten fanfic trainer 1: Close to whatever the canon age for SWSH trainers is, really really enthusiastic about battling and getting along with her Pokemon, probably Dynamaxes at the same time as her opponent, just really excited to be here and wants to win because battling is fun, tries to win battles with energy and force

Unwritten fanfic trainer 2: Probably around Nessa’s age, maybe a little older, very serious and strategic, battling because clearly it’s what is being done and it’s an interesting pursuit, tries to win battles with pre-planned strategies, Dynamaxes accordingly (sometimes goes early if that would set things up well for the rest of the battle, otherwise she Dynamaxes at the same time as the opponent to hold her own)

Unwritten fanfic trainer 3: Age in between the two other girls, kind of tired and going along with battling (she does still try though) because it’s what everyone expects them to want to be doing, battles more for the sake of their Pokemon and thus kind of strategizes her training by how the Pokemon wants to battle (hence getting their female Kirlia who is very sad she can’t be a Gallade an Everstone and training them to fight more like Gallade than Gardevoir), like the other two doesn’t have official nicknames on record but does have unofficial ones she calls them (Blipbug eventually Orbeetle is ‘Nerd’, Rookidee eventually Corviknight is ‘Brat’, Ralts quickly Kirlia is ‘Kid’, Mimikyu is ‘Buddy’), honestly the viewpoint of the latter three because they’re more of a mood and also I just really like how I want her to interact with Bede and Hop, also never Dynamaxes because she doesn’t feel great about it and their Pokemon don’t really have a desire to (And like they really hate Bede’s guts because he’s a dick and deck him when he gives Hop his BSOD and go to help Hop, she isn’t great at it but it helps a lot; also after Bede gets his challenger status stripped, he’s really fucking upset and he gets his dynamax band taken and she’s just like...you know what fuck it and challenges him to a battle and says whoever wins decides who gets to keep her dynamax band, the other girls are shocked but she tells them to shut up, Bede agrees and borrows her band for the battle; they win anyway and tell him to keep it because they said the winner decided what happened, not that the winner kept it; they eventually win the challenger’s cup and Bede gives them their Dynamax band back right before his intrusion challenge (Opal gave him one of his own) and tells them that they better Dynamax so he can beat them and prove he’s better and she does it with Orbeetle and he Gigantamaxes and it’s really cool and Bede finally admits shit and it’s just great I don’t know how to write Dynamax and also just...don’t want to develop characters n shit but damn I have good moments for them she’s the main character in the unwritten fic for a reason I guess) (Also Nerd is her starter, they woke up late and didn’t get one of the three starters, they went out to Route 1 and sat there and she saw a Blipbug getting attacked by a Rookidee, the others caught up and, after 1 misses two throws entirely, pick up the balls and catch the two herself. Something like that it still involves her seeing a Rookidee bullying a Blipbug on Route 1, followed by them catching both. Also that’s why Rookidee is Brat because when she first saw him, he was being a brat. I need two more team members for them, the other two have no team aside from 1 getting Grookey and 2 getting Sobble because final form vibes match really well like...energetic loud with the most energetic, strategic and cool for the sternest, and Hop gets to have a fire starter like his big bro!)

random thoughts on my pokemon magical girl/boy au:

the protags/rivals fuse with their pokemon to become heroes. it’s not rly like ash-greninja or mother beast though. maybe a bit more like su fusion?

their powers come from the legendary pokemon of the region in question, via these things called “hearts”, which are weird artefacts found at the sites where leagues are built. the champions (+ kukui and burnet) look after these and watch over the heroes. the powers are specifically handed out by talking electric rodents (plus a mimikyu that got hired bc togedemaru wasn’t around and silvally couldn’t hand the power to gladion itself).

geez this got long let’s put it under a cut

red = charizard, blue = blastoise, leaf = venusaur.

red signs his dramatic speeches. leaf and blue thought initially maybe he could try speaking with his charizard’s help, but he still can’t speak any human languages. fortunately he’s still able to trash-talk giovanni, who learnt sign language because you never know who you’ll be dealing with in his line of business.

also red accidentally caught the pikachu that was trying to give him superpowers bc he was like “wow a pikachu!! they’re rare!! let’s catch it!!” pikachu has never let him live this down.

ethan = typhlosion, silver = feraligatr, kris = meganium, lyra = azumarill.

silver got picked up by the spiky-eared and pikachu-coloured pichu bros first. they regret this decision right up until goldenrod when the character development starts kicking in.

lance: “why this kid though?” pichu bros: “well... he has a good heart deep down!! we just didn’t realise how deep down it was.” lance, getting out his #1 dad mug and a barbeque: “guess i’m going to have to handle this one myself.”

kris actually gets her powers last, they meet her in ilex forest with her bayleef.

may = blaziken, brendan = swampert, wally = gallade.

SORRY SCEPTILE. i love you but... can’t have two greens...

may loves this job way too much. wally is so determined to do this right. brendan... is just getting dragged along for the ride.

wally’s costume has a face mask designed to help his breathing as part of it, so he can stay active for longer than he normally could. it actually really helps his health.

archie and maxie are also getting way too into this. archie is enjoying being the big bombastic magical girl villain, and while maxie won’t admit it, he’s going very shiny-glasses-and-tch on the gang.

dawn = torterra, lucas = empoleon, barry = infernape.

barry has fire powers, arceus help us all. wait, this is partially arceus’s fault. fuck.

cyrus is your standard super fucked up why is he in this genre at all villain.

looker figures out who the trio are basically immediately, but promises to keep their secret so long as they work with him against the team galactic. they agree because looker’s awesome and fuck cyrus.

dawn very much enjoys using the move wood hammer.

hilbert = samurott, bianca = emboar, cheren = serperior, n = zoroark.

the nacrene museum affair is a complete disaster for n, who realises at the last second that the skull isn’t what they want, and then has to go magical boy mode with hilbert to get it back, which confuses the HELL out of the plasma grunts.

please imagine bianca punching ghetsis through a wall. it is a great image.

cheren thinks this is stupid but he LOVES his costume.

rosa = lucario, hugh = unfezant.

the first one is based on the pokestar studios first movie. rosa stars in a film about herself, playing herself, and almost no one knows. hugh and bianca die of laughter when they see it.

the second one... firstly he gets a pidove fast, secondly, that MASK. imagine it.

my apologies to hilda and nate. you guys are cool but i couldn’t fit extra protags in on this one.

serena = delphox, calem = greninja, shauna = chesnaught, tierno = clawitzer, trevor = florges.

they love this. they love this so much. it is the best thing that has ever happened to these kids. especially tierno. he quickly becomes known as the most graceful of kalos’s legendary heroes and he loves it.

trevor is in kind of an odd situation - everyone else has gender match-ups on their pokemon but he can’t. so technically “florges hero” is non-binary. it’s an interesting opportunity for self-exploration if nothing else.

serena would probably end up very usagi-like just for the joke in the names. meanwhile calem is a fucking ninja and he loves it.

shauna in a suit of armour. it’s so stupid. i love it.

moon = incineroar, sun = primarina, hau = decidueye, lillie = lunala, gladion = silvally.

LILLIE PLZ. GLADION PLZ. that’s just excessive??

sun and moon are twins. scary twins. meanwhile hau is robin hood. he just wanted a type advantage over his grandpa.

the plot would be some convoluted mix of sm and usum with necrozma and mother beast and all of that thrown in. 

episode rr is the movie where they get all of the teams together. giovanni is like “???” when he sees silver. archie and maxie end up working together because if they don’t then this tiny blaziken girl will destroy them both. cyrus has now seen it all. ghetsis laughs at n being there until he can’t fucking find anyone because of all the illusions, also it’s not funny to harass someone who is beyond the point of caring about it. lysandre cannot believe this is happening. faba runs screaming the moment the big fight starts.

fwiw: lance = dragonite (he adopts like seven unruly kids in this mess), steven = metagross (probably shiny for the aesthetic), wallace = milotic (most fabulous magical mentor ever), cynthia = garchomp (if you actually make her transform you’re screwed), alder = whatever his partner was in the past (you never see him change form), iris = haxorus (tiny princess girl with an axe), diantha = gardevoir (bow down to the queen or get moonblasted), kukui = lycanroc & burnet = musharna (they found the heart so they have to deal with it).

the villains also generally manage to imitate these powers with varying levels of success. giovanni manages it but doesn’t enjoy it. archie and maxie do fairly well because their pokemon like them. cyrus thinks it’s a weird but useful tool. ghetsis... max frustration hydreigon... it’s not pretty. n obviously nails it. colress never personally tries but it’s an interesting phenomenon all the same. lysandre also does well because his gyarados actually does seem to like him a lot. lusamine should not have tried this with an ultra beast. guzma goes all street samurai with his golisopod and it’s AMAZING.
