#pokemon aim to be a master

[scraftyisthebest]

As one story ends, another begins, yet the unique essence of a Pokemon protagonist lives on, even from old to new.

Through Liko, the essence of Ash's journey and character live on, as Liko too aims to be one who understands, befriends, and connects with Pokemon around the world, even if the path she takes to get there may differ, the aim is the same: to know the world, to connect with Pokemon, seeing them as friends and partners.

The essence of a Pokemon protagonist, the essence of a Pokemon Master. A Trainer who aims to understand Pokemon, and strives for connection. Ash is one who trained to understand Pokemon, which proved to be his greatest strength, and Liko too is on her way to becoming the kind of Trainer who can connect with the Pokemon she meets.

For me, it's hard to decide between BW and JN. BW was frustrating since the Zekrom tease went nowhere, Ash was reset in a weird way, and the most interesting elements (ie: Plasma) were left till post-League, and by the time we got them, were pretty bland compared to their game portrayals. I didn't really care for the Episode N climax, or how Ghetsis was handled.

JN was kinda boring except for us getting returning characters, and I felt the M8 was too predictable, Chloe's arc ended on a fizzle, and the Project Mew finale had pretty bad animation, plus MPM was very underwhelming as our goodbye to Ash, a character pretty much every Pokemon fan grew up with. (Granted, I get why they left some things hanging in case they ever decided to bring him back.)

I have overloaded my brain (11 epsiodes and 109 manga chapters). Anyways while I wait for more Kaiju No. 8 content to drop, time for another ✨submas AU✨

I currently only have Emmet designed but essentially the idea is that following the big fight with no. 9, the JAKDF manages to get in connection with the US to get some assistance with rebuilding and supporting their forces as everything get repaired. This is based off this panel from the manga:

Essentially a couple of soldiers and a lot of materials are sent to Japan to help get everything settled. Among the people sent over are the twins, along with their weapons. Until the next Kaiju comes in (and they're cleared to join in the battle), they're mostly getting to know the other captains and having fun talking about the tactic differences between the Defense Forces.

Here's some bonus doodles and Emmet's drill.

The auger is meant to be put into the spine or skull of the Kaiju. The pins stab into the body to keep it in place (Emmet usually also helps hold it down), at which point the auger starts drilling into the muscle and bone. This will not kill it, but it will distract/impair it enough for the rest of his team to take it down. Cores are usually too deep for him to use it for a killing blow, but in instances where the core is exposed long enough for him to set the drill in place, it will tear through and bring the Kaiju down.

Hope you guys enjoy the concept, let me know if you guys want to see more/see specific interactions. See ya!

I still don’t understand people’s obsession over Ash losing to Misty for clauncher. I don’t have a problem with the “Ash should’ve won and then given it to Misty” mindset but to be so insanely pressed and straight up hateful is just weird. Let Misty get her win, it’s literally not that far fetched that one of Ash’s FIRST mentors beat him, a gym leader at that.

I can’t believe that it’s been a year since Ash Ketchum/Satoshi and his longtime partner Pokemon Pikachu made their last appearance in the TV series.

Anyway, credit goes to @outouni for doing this commission of Kirlia dressed as the Lass holding a Pikachu plushie from the first season opening theme of Aim to Be a Pokémon Master on early March of last year.

Today marks a year since The Rainbow and the Pokemon Master aired in Japan, the last episode of Ash's series.

Honestly, tho I grew up with Ash and have a lot of nostalgia towards him (this ain't coming from a place of dislike or nothing), I am happy they finally retired him and went an entirely new direction with Horizons.

(More because it's doing its own unique storyline, you don't really know where the plot's gonna go. It makes watching it more interesting imo. I also really love the Explorers as a villain team and how cool Friede is )

I HAVE TUMBLRE. I am a part of the30% boom . anyways how are you

Currently in agony right now because for some dumb reason, the English dub for aim to be a Pokemon master decided to change the music to some generic ass one instead of search for the girl at the end of that Latias and Latios episode..

other than that garbage I'm doing ok thanks.

More context

The final mini-series starring Satoshi (Ash) had a lot of sweet scenes where Satoshi handled things better than he did during his first journey, to show his growth and also, to show it wasn't that these Pokemon were acting unreasonably (weeeell, based on their instincts), they were just protecting their young.

He saved a Kakuna he accidentally knocked down here and it evolved in his arms. He tended to an injured Onisuzume (Spearow) that was hit instead of leaving it injured and upset (which would understandably make its flock angry aggressive towards those who wronged their young.) Takeshi (Brock), with his training as a Pokemon Doctor, treated it medically. ^^

Satoshi also fed a hungry Koratta (Rattata) that tried to steal from his backpack. ^^

Watched the new Pokemon episode, and realtalk Ash holding Beedrill like a baby is exactly how I would treat bug Pokemon half the time. (Context is Ash caught a Kakuna from falling, and it evolved while he was holding it. He was understandably Alarmed, but it's cool, nobody got stung.)
