Heavy Thing Goes In...

“Hoopa has a good idea!” Hoopa said. “Ashkan, Hoopa will bring some friends to help us out!”

“Friends would be great,” Ash replied, glancing back at the absolute havoc that was happening as Hoopa’s dark side – or Unbound self – or whatever you wanted to call it, brought in more and more Legendary Pokémon.

“Good!” Hoopa declared, twirling rings on their fingers. “Allez – Hooparing!”

Three golden rings went spinning out in front of them, and the big one activated first. A black-scaled, shiny Rayquaza came through, coiling in mid-air, and frowned at Ash.

“Hi!” Ash called. “I haven’t met you before but I met another Rayquaza – do you know him? We didn’t talk much, though.”

Shiny Rayquaza looked baffled for a moment, then shrugged.

“Pika-kachuu! Pikapi kachu pii!” Pikachu volunteered.

Then the two smaller rings triggered, and a Latias and Latios came zipping through.

Latias immediately did a double-take and zipped closer to Ash, head tilting, then cleared her throat.

“Ash?” she asked, voice squeaky but understandable. “I – know that’s a silly question but I did see someone who looked exactly like you once and that was embarrassing-”

“Oh, that was probably Ritchie,” Ash said. “Or it could have been someone else. But yeah, I’m Ash Ketchum!”

“Tii-os?” the Latios asked, pointing at Pikachu. “La-tios?”

“Chuu!” Pikachu nodded, cheeks sparking. “Pikachu pika, pi?”

“Wow!” Hoopa said. “Hoopa only asked for Pokémon that would be willing to help Ashkan and Pikakan! Hoopa is surprised that you both know Ashkan and Pikakan!”

“Both?” Ash asked, frowning for a second as he looked over at Latios, then brightened. “Oh, you must be Tobias’s, right?”

“Os-ti!” Latios confirmed, nodding more confidently now. “Ti-laaa-tios?”

“Well, I had something I wanted to say to Ash before and never got the chance because I couldn’t say it properly-” Latias tried, then there was a sound like tearing cloth as a Roar of Time went overhead.

“Uh oh!” Ash said. “We need to get out of here-”

Pikachu sprang up onto Latios’s back, cheeks sparking, and Latias swept Ash up onto her own back. Ash grabbed Hoopa, as well, then all three Dragon-types zipped away just ahead of Palkia arriving and slamming a Spatial Rend into the ground.

“We need to do something to slow them down!” Ash said, looking around. “Rayquaza, can you help?”

Rayquaza’s scales began to shine, then there was a burst of light as the Sky High Pokémon Mega-Evolved – without any Mega Stone involved.

Latias and Latios Mega-Evolved as well, then all of Unbound Hoopa’s Pokémon launched attacks at them at once, and Mega Latias, Mega Latios, Pikachu and Rayquaza shot back their strongest attacks to match them.

There was an enormous explosion that lit up the whole central bay of Dahara City, illuminating it like it was daytime and making some of the street lamps momentarily switch off, and Ash pointed behind a building.

“Over there!” he said, and both Eon Pokémon shot over behind the building.

“Hoopa!” he added. “Can you help?”

“Hoopa has already summoned three Pokémon, Ashkan!” Hoopa protested. “Four if you count Lugia which Unbound Hoopa sent home! Hoopa does not have unlimited rings!”

“Right,” Ash said, reaching for a Pokéball on his belt, then shook his head. “...but what about… Hoopa, do your rings work better if you’re only going a short distance?”

“Hoopa can do that, but Hoopa cannot pass through them,” Hoopa replied. “And Hoopa’s rings must start near Hoopa! Hoopa cannot send them far away.”

“Ash, you’re… thinking of something, right?” Mega Latias asked, then glanced at Mega Latios – and Mega Rayquaza, who had also squeezed behind the building and was taking up most of the space behind it. “I remember you were good at that, but you battled him once, right, Latios?”

“Tii-os, lati-oss,” Mega Latios said.

“Chuu!” Pikachu declared, pointing at his chest. “Pika pika-chuu, pikapi chu!”

“Ti-lati-os,” Mega Latios frowned, apparently not quite sure of how Pikachu had put it.

Mega Latias giggled.

“Sounds like it,” she said. “And I know Ash keeps helping out Legendary Pokémon!”

Ash frowned, then snapped his fingers.

“Got it!” he said. “Hoopa – what about if you brought one of the other Legendaries through a ring and immediately sent them through a second ring?”

Hoopa frowned, then brightened.

“That would work, Ashkan!” they said. “What are you thinking of?”

“Well… Unbound Hoopa has summoned some really big Pokémon,” Ash replied. “We’re going to need to knock some of them out to solve this… Latias, can you get us somewhere Hoopa can see to aim?”

Twenty crowded seconds later, Mega Latias was in the middle of doing a snap-roll away from a Roar of Time when Hoopa made a gesture.

“Allez – Hoopa Rings!” they said, and Ash saw a blur of gold beside them. For a moment, something huge and pealescent thundered through the narrow gap between the two rings, then the Roar of Time cut off very abruptly with an almighty thump that echoed through the city.

As Palkia landed at very high speed on top of Dialga.

Even the shadow Unbound Hoopa seemed to be taken aback, and Mega Latias skidded to a halt in mid-air so they could get a better look at Hoopa’s ringwork.

“How did you get this idea, anyway?” Mega Latias asked. “I never would have thought of that.”

“I was thinking about how it is that I keep meeting Legendary Pokémon, and how Dialga and Palkia and Groudon and Kyogre were in the middle of a fight where I had to get help to stop it!” Ash replied. “You know. Time is a flat circle!”

“Yeah, it looks like he is,” Mega Latias winced, as Palkia stepped off her counterpart and gave the impression of looking surprisingly sheepish for a possessed Legendary Pokémon. “Ouch...”

thank you so much for kind words you’re both angels

[zombiesama]

In your Nanbaka Pokemon sprite edit, the 4 boys have 4 Pokemon- so I'm curious, what Poke did they each bring? I mean I see the caption says Nico has an Oddish but I'm curious abt the other dudes

Nanbaka’s author, Shou Futamata (@ArukaRider on twitter) did a series of art with some of the nnbk characters with some pokemon!

Nico has an Oddish, Rock has a Gengar, Uno has a Corsola, and Jyugo has both a Swadloon and a Litten! Since there’s only 4 pokes in that art, Jyugo brought his Litten, since Nico already has grass type covered.

Honestly, I wouldn’t have thought to pair Rock with Gengar but they are perfect for eachother <3

[senritsu]

In regards to ur question abt kpika using an inflatable dolphin to properly conjure their dolphin pal- no ❤. That's embarrassing. Clearly they looked at dolphin pics on google images, then made a lil paper maché dolphin w a cool visor and needle gun things on its fins

that’s why izunavi is on the boat. keep your friends close and people who are aware of your secret paper mache escapades closer

THANKS, my inner child-with-a-coloring-book self is shrieking in joy with this

Would You Still

“Ash?” Latias asked.

Ash paused, halfway through rubbing the damp cloth down her side to get off some of the scorch marks.

“What is it?” he asked.

“You… do still like me, right?” she said, sounding worried.

Ash blinked a couple of times.

“Why wouldn’t I like you?” he asked.

“Because-” Latias began, then winced. “Because… that was such an important battle for you, and… it didn’t work out?”

Ash exchanged a glance with Pikachu.

“Ka-chuu, pika-ikachu,” Pikachu opined. “Chu, Pikapi pika chuu!”

“Latias… I guess-” Ash began, then stopped and sighed.

“I’m going to put this in a really bad way,” he groaned. “But… uh… so, first, yeah, losing a battle sucks, and losing at the Pokémon League really sucks. Because so many people are looking at us.”

Latias looked crestfallen, and Ash dipped the cloth in water before getting to work again.

“But that happens,” he said. “I know it sucks, but I also know – it happens. Harrison and his team pulled out all those surprises, to try and stop us, right?”

“Chuu,” Pikachu muttered, rubbing his side.

“Yeah,” Ash agreed. “Some Pokémon I’ve never even seen before – some really cool Pokémon, at that! And – yeah, he stopped us, but he had to do all of that, right? And then that Jon guy who’s been doing so well is up against him next, and… oh, right, you might not have noticed?”

“Noticed what?” Latias asked.

Pikachu giggled.

“Yeah, I keep forgetting you’re not experienced,” Ash said. “It’s just one of those things that… makes sense, to me, and to Brock and Misty too… Jon is going to be ready for all those tricks that Harrison has, because Harrison had to use them all on us to stop us.”

Latias frowned, then made a thoughtful noise.

“Right!” Ash said, nodding, as he finished up with her right flank and moved on to her wing. “So – I don’t know if Harrison’s got other tricks left, but he brought back some Pokémon from Hoenn with really neat abilities that were a huge surprise! I don’t know if that Jon guy is going to win or lose, but… he’s going to have it easier, and Harrison is going to have it harder, because Harrison decided he needed to use all those tricks against us. Right?”

“I… think so?” Latias frowned.

“It means that – no, there’s nothing to be ashamed of!” Ash explained. “And I guess… maybe that’s easier for me to explain to someone else than to remember myself, hehe… but, don’t worry, Latias. You did really well. You’re new to battling, and I’m glad you chose to come along with me as my Pokémon, and… you’re brave.”

Latias tilted her head, shifting her weight a little as she lay on the floor, and Ash nodded.

“You are,” he said. “Because… like I say, you’re new to battling, and you didn’t have much training, or much experience, and you went for it anyway, and you kept fighting for so long to try and pull it out for me. And… I guess… getting better at battling, getting stronger, getting more experience, learning more moves… all of those are things we can work on. And you’re already brave, which is… great, it really is.”

He washed the cloth again, then looked at the water. “Uh. In fact, you’ve got so many scorch marks from Blaziken’s Blaze Kicks that I guess I need more water, this one’s turned black…”

Latias giggled, and Ash grinned.

“So – don’t worry, Latias!” he reassured her, getting up. “Because… yeah. We lost. And now I’m going to get better at being a Pokémon trainer, so we’ll all be ready next time and we’ll do even better!”

“Ka-pikapi, kachu!” Pikachu pointed out, holding up both paws and showing a total of four fingers, folding them in, then another four.

“...oh, yeah, and I guess that’s easy to forget, too,” Ash admitted. “Which is that – yeah, not many people make it to the quarter finals. Not many people even make it to the Pokémon League. And we were battling in the quarter finals, and – you fit right in, Latias. You should be proud of that.”

Pikachu nodded. “Chuu!”

Ash was about to go and get some more water, but Latias picked herself up off the floor and gave him a spontaneous hug.

“Thank you, Ash,” she said. “I… I feel a lot better now.”

“Heheh, I’m glad to help!” Ash replied, grinning. “Though I really do need to go and get some more water to finish cleaning off those scorch marks…”

“Chuu, ka-chu?” Pikachu asked.

“...actually, why aren’t we just going to a Pokémon Centre?” Latias asked.

Ash shrugged. “I guess… I wanted to make sure you didn’t feel uncomfortable?” he said. “I know it’s the first time you’ve been knocked out, and normally for my Pokémon that happens where Brock or Tracey can take care of them, not at a Pokémon Centre…”

Where do each of your names come from?

:3 So!! Aloe is shortened + modified from Aloysius, The Name I chose for myself when I first discovered I was trans like eight years ago (people shortened it to Alo, and I loved that it reminded me of the plant, so sometimes I add an E [hence my art signature being ALO(E)]). This is what I consider my Real Name, if I have to pick one

Aither is my very favorite character from my favorite shitty anime gacha game. He's the one in my profile pic rn!! I just admire how enthusiastic and positive he is, and I love his transmasc swag (he originally was designed to be a girl, but the devs changed his gender shortly before launch)

Red is my favorite character from Four Swords Adventures, a silly Legend of Zelda manga about a hero being split into four different people. They each go by color names, and Red is really sweet

Ra is one of my favorite bands, and I loved the name. I'm genderfluid, and this is the name I most associate with being a man :D

Oracle is the name I usually use for in video games, inspired by oracle decks (similar to tarot cards!). It always throws people off, and they go 'wait why is your character an oracle'. This is also my most feminine name!

Kafei is a character I love from Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask (a game I ADORE). I just think he's neat!

and Arc is just short for Arcadian-Vampire. I used to go by Pika when my url was Pikapi-Chu, so it seemed fitting (this is why my personal post tag is pikaposts!)

Thank you for asking!!

[hey-color-palettes]

Could you do a pallete for the name Aloysius? Pretty please ♥
