‘the children yearn for the mines’ is a little too real to me bc when i was a kid and my older siblings were trying to get me into pokémon i really never cared to try playing. BUT. i was obsessed with the underground mining minigame in dppt. i used to beg my sister to let me take a turn playing and set it up for me bc i didn’t know how to so i could go mine for gems nonstop until i cleared that entire cave section of glittering wall spots which always made me so sad bc i was having such a great time. i didn’t even understand the significance of what i was doing but 7 year old me was high off of it

I love the Sun and Moon games with all my heart, all the characters and Pokémon and locations are so lovely I absolutely adore all of them!

JuliMona fans GET UP!!!!!!

Literally, we can't let the closest to canon couple lose to an entirely fan crafted thing!!! I dont hate the other ship, but the two have literally never even interacted in the series. Compared to JuliMona who have the game, the music video and other stuff! COME ON SHEEPLE!

My Pokémon ZA prediction (no leaks no spoilers just headcanon) is that the protags are/are ancestors of Sina and Dexio

By far the most shafted of the recurring cast-(superhero outfits out of nowhere after the climax? Only going to Alola to justify why Zygarde cells are there)

AND YET

There was a Pokemas event featuring them recently. Why would TPC be giving a spotlight to such obscure characters? Maybe I’m reading too much into it, but maybeeee

While I'm still riding the Xenoblade X hyperfixation, let me just use it to talk gender identity some more.

Between deciding on my current Cross design back during last December and where I am now (i.e. feeling that I'm probably a Woman But A Bit To The Side), I initially did have the plan of just switch between the male design and the female one. But even though I kept those two looking as close to each other as possible, there was always something that I didn't quite like about the male one on a very basic level, and something that I just couldn't put my finger on, let alone fix. Somewhere down the line, I decided to also make myself smaller builds for both, as an alternative to switch to. So, "Young Boy" instead of "Boy", and "Girl" instead of "Woman". For the female Cross, that worked out well enough, and I still have the design I came up with for that saved in-game, even if I have taken no screenshots. But with the male Cross? For the life of me, I could not put together a design that I even remotely liked. Absolutely nothing felt right, even though on principle, I guess I preferred the younger looking face over my actual "main" male Cross (which even then, I almost never used). In the end, I just gave up that whole design process entirely. I guess that only really serves to show that I'm really not off in my current self-perception. . .

Some days I wish more people actually played Pokemon for the plot so there's incentive to improve on the plot's weak points

The Player characters, redesigned

The girl is Lily, the boy is Colm and the third option is Alex who is nonbinary.

They will be 11 years old at the start of the game and 12-13 by the end

If you choose Lily, Colm will be your older brother by two years (3rd-4th Year) and Alex your younger sibling.

If you choose Colm, Lily will be your older sister (3rd-4th Year) by two years and Alex your younger sibling.

If you choose Alex, both Colm and Lily will be your older siblings (3rd-4th Years).

Each will have a plethora of dialogue options that would change depending on previous choices.

To really change things from the typical Pokemon gameplay formula, I imagine there to be nine different personality types the character can choose from, all based on the Alignments from Dungeons and Dragons.

The ending would change a bit depending on your options.

Pokémon Headcanon Thread #2

(thread one) (twitter)

[spoondoodles]

So I recently got a hold of a copy of Pokemon Legends Arceus AND been playing the ttg Pokemon Legends of Sinnoh on Tabletop Simulator and needless to say I have some outfit design thoughts about the two games...

I'm just saying if Arceus speaks like some kind of fake Old English their 'chosen one' might as well look the part. Although I do like the diamond clan's little hoodies.

(first outfit inspired by the Diamond Clan of Legends Arceus but with Dialga colours, second outfit was me looking at Volo's handmade Arceus outfit and saying "I could do better".)

i made this post before but what’s up with paldeans and destroying the environment. the player character hops on a plane to travel between spain japan and new york whenever they feel like it to run minor errands. the area zero team went into an ancient crater and found this otherworldly paradise and started building a bunch of giant research stations. the professors thought it would be cool to use a huge machine to either bring the dinosaurs back or summon a bunch of murderous robots and let them loose upon the world. the league is using cryptocurrency. geeta please something has to be done

Eureka: noun; used to express triumph

My ORAS champion character!

[tigertaurus22]

In my hypothetical Pokémon game, Pokemon Charm and Curse, these two are the default appearances of the Player characters.

I named them after a set of twins from By the Grace of the Gods.

There’s supposed to be a non-binary third option called Chris too, I just haven’t gotten around to drawing them yet.

Their robes are grey because they haven’t been Sorted yet.

I think they’d be the first official redhead Players of the series, but you’d be able to change that if you wanted to of course.

Like in most Pokemon games, you’d start out as an eleven-year-old child, but the game(s) is supposed to take you through all seven years at New Hogwarts so unlike in most Pokemon games, you’ll be able to watch your character grow up.

My hot take is that Poppy being in the elite four doesn’t mean anything in particular. We’ve had young gym leaders before I think she’s just really good at battles.
