Do you have any particular headcanons about the Ultra Beasts?
Technically every Ultra Beast is an entire species, but I’m going to refer to specific members of each species who have fallen through Ultra Wormholes at one point or another and formed a found family of sorts together.
Novelette the Nihilego
A mad scientist type of individual. Knowledge-hungry and a bit callous in the questions she may ask, but is ultimately kind. She just doesn’t understand many social customs from her home world, let alone the new one she finds herself in.
Physically weak. Prone to hiding behind others when startled— uses people as living shields.
She is OBSESSED with mystery dungeons. Those don’t exist back home, and she’s desperate to figure out how they work.
Glows slightly in the dark. Glows brighter when she blushes.
Basil the Buzzwole
This man is a brick wall of muscle and friendship.
He and Novelette (whom he calls Novi) are very close. He doesn’t understand many of her discoveries or the research that leads to them, but he does his best to be supportive and help her with any experiments. Chemical reactions are a favorite topic of study for them.
Extremely emotive in his body language. He has a hard time reading people who aren’t very expressive physically. Doesn’t matter how much emotion is in your voice— of you’re not striking a pose alongside what you said, he’s gonna struggle to know whether you’re being sarcastic or not.
He makes the best fruit salads. No one knows how. You can follow the same process as he does when making a fruit salad and it won’t taste half as good as one he prepared.
Alabaster the Pheromosa
Despite her cool, unaffected demeanor, she’s extremely caring and a bit of a worry wart.
Where she’s from, pheromosas are the only form of intelligent life because they were the only sentient species that was capable of surviving in the aftermath of a massive explosion of unknown origins which turned the entire landscape into a massive desert filled with a strange energy.
She HATES feeling dirty / seeing dirty objects. Keeping yourself, your belongings, and your loved ones clean was a big deal for survival in her world, and while she understands that it’s not as critical in this new world, she still shows her concern for others by cleaning their things for them and nagging them to wash up before meals.
She frequently confuses pokemon of similar body types for each other.
She can instantly reach 120 miles per hour / 200 kilometers per hour from a dead stop. This results in her practically teleporting up to people at times and scaring the life out of them. She’s constantly reminding herself to walk very slowly and match others’ strides.
Watcher the Xurkitree
Spends a lot of time rooted into the ground for days on end, completely unresponsive. Whenever a storm rolls into the area, she rushes over to gather energy from any subsequent lightning strikes.
Quiet and stoic. Rarely talks about herself or her thoughts and opinions. Spends most of her time silently observing the people around her.
She’s pretty zany once she opens up to others. Make no mistake, she’s still stoic as ever, but she’ll say the most out-there things with deadpan delivery.
Can’t eat food and is confused by how people get energy from unmoving solids. Has a lot of opinions on the ways different types of electricity feel to absorb.
Enjoys swimming and being submerged in water.
Etta the Celesteela
Unlike the other Ultra Beasts, she has no mixed feelings about the thought of returning to her world. She’s getting back there ASAP, and she’s never looking back.
Communicates psychically with others. She was confused when people asked her how far she could communicate with people from. There’s no known limit to this ability.
She also has a lot of similarities with grass-types, getting energy over the course of centuries while buried in soil. She doesn’t spend much time in dirt in this new world, however, because she’s found that sitting in large bodies of water helps her gather energy much more efficiently. She might be able to return home even without an Ultra Wormhole if she spends the next decade in water.
She enjoys Watcher’s company whenever she visits Etta’s lake.
Coda the Kartana
A noble warrior-type who believes strongly in chivalry and intense moral codes.
Boasts about his strength and skill in battle, but is a bit of a coward who refuses to fight without another person on his side and will flee the second he catches a glimpse of fire or moisture.
At one point, Bud folds a piece of paper into a shape vaguely resembling him, and he became her self-assigned sworn protector.
Is affected by Alabaster’s pheromones more than any other ultra beast or pokemon. Thankfully, they’re not too much of a problem unless she’s very angry, which isn’t a common occurrence— but if she’s in an argument with someone and he’s remotely in the same area, he’s going to end up barely conscious and very emotional.
King the Guzzlord
Prickly and irritable, though he’s not intentionally cruel.
Constantly starving. It’s a miserable thing, and causes him a lot of pain. He tries to focus on various intellectual endeavors instead of how hungry he is.
If a field of study exists, he’s researched everything about it that he physically could.
Etta is almost constantly chatting with him telepathically. He really appreciates her company.
Pipo the Poipole
She’d get along great with Celebi if they ever met.
Strongly admires Deoxys.
Is technically capable of evolving, and has been for a very long time, but prefers being a poipole much more to the thought of becoming a naganadel.
Despite how different they are, King is her best friend, and she’s always secretly pestering Novelette and Basil about finding some way to make people feel full so that she can help ease her friend’s misery.
Chorus the Stakataka
Each brick is technically its own being— but they all form a single, unified consciousness that calls himself Chorus.
Absolutely loves music, which apparently doesn’t exist in his world, which is largely silent. He identifies strongly with songs being made up of multiple measures, melodies, and instruments— hence the name he chose for himself after entering this world.
He’s capable of removing individual bricks from his structure and placing them in different locations to observe the area. He’s not capable of remotely accessing the senses of any removed bricks, but gains the memories collected by the bricks when they’re reincorporated into his structure.
Ferryman the Blacephalon
A gadfly-type character who is always prodding people for reactions. Is constantly looking to make Watcher’s stoic demeanor falter.
He has a rather cruel sense of humor, and no topic of joke is off the table for him. Bud dislikes him greatly for this reason.
Gets his energy by feeding off of others’ emotions. The stronger the emotion, the better the fuel, so he likes to scare the life out of people by sneaking up behind them and making his head explode.
Has hidden depths that he refuses to acknowledge due to something unpleasant about his past.
Haven the Deoxys
Though he’s not your typical ultra beast, he has enough similarities with them to be considered an ultra beast native to this world.
An amnesiac who recalls very little from before he crash-landed on earth in a meteorite. He’s fascinated by the world around him— especially auroras, which he claims make noises like someone speaking nonsensical sentences.
Very fond of Bud. Despite his unfamiliarity with the concept of bonds developed past the depth of simple acquaintances, he considers her family. He’d give anything to make her smile.
Enjoys writing. He’s not very good at it (according to him) but he likes creating short story collections especially.
Necrozma the Necrozma
The best grandpa in the world.
Bud the Human
While she’s not an ultra beast, she’s been absorbed into their found family after Deoxys encountered her while she was lost and concluded that, as a creature that isn’t a Pokémon, she obviously must be an ultra beast.
As much as she loves her family in the main TPiaG cast, she finds it very freeing to be in a new group outside of them. Even after returning to live amongst humans in the Future, she makes sure to visit the long-lived ultra beasts she befriended in the Present.
She gets a lot of individual nicknames from the ultra beasts— pretty much every one of them has a unique way to address her.
This girl is collecting adopted parents like they’re trading cards. Someone stop her. She’s too powerful.

Ooh what about...Teacher au, actor au, and pokémon au. Ships open to whatever but jason in them preferred 👀
For the AU ask game!
THESE ARE ALL SO GOOD, YOU ARE CRACKING ME OPEN LIKE AN EGG (like with a previous ask i might answer one and then maybe circle back with a reblog or smth to answer the others fjdlsaja WE'LL SEE IF I HAVE TIME TODAY) and I'm jaytim til i die so that's what i'll be speculating on for the most part lmao
Teacher au... oh the hot gossip that would fly in that staff lounge...
Five fun facts about a teacher au I'd write:
Jason teaches either english or drama. Or maybe he would teach drama IF admin hadn't fucking cut the drama program last year and left them to organize a club instead. "there's no funding" they say, and yet the basketball team is getting all new equipment, all new buses (not even district-assigned! their OWN BUS), a whole new fucking facility--
Tim is the basketball coach. (He teaches math/comp sci/engineering). Drama ensues.
(The basketball team went to state last year Mr. Todd, sorry if success means getting more interest and therefore funding from the community, but maybe there's a lesson to be learned here) (>:0 he did NOT)
Principal Wayne doesn't play favorites (except he totally does, Principal Grayson at their sister school in Blüdhaven applied for that job specifically to get away from the bullshit. He wishes he could have sniped Babs as his office manager, but she's too entrenched. RIP) but Tim is obviously Bruce's newest, shiniest hire and after Jason came back from medical leave (motorcycle accidents suuuuuuck) he's extremely miffed to see what's been changed in his absence
Real conflict would take place when one of Tim's star players tries out for the school play and gets the lead role because Jason can see that this kid has talent AND THEY NEED THAT. (Drake is, unfortunately, correct; if they can take their production of Chicago to the National Drama Festival, then maybe they'll get the support they need to reinstate the drama program. Or whatever. UGH) Tim is pissed because this kid has a shot at playing professionally and this could fuck his chances if he's not giving his A-game during championships this year. Cue no longer passive but rather outright aggressive arguments between Mr. Todd and Mr. Drake BOILING with sexual tension while, idk who, Jon Kent probably Does His Best to be a teenager lmao
(BONUS FUN FACT: they 100% fuck in their hotel at Dramafest, because of course the drama club made it, and of course Mr. Drake came along. To support his student, obviously. And not at all because Tim saw the play that winter to support Jon and saw how good he was and Jason got in his face about it after the show and all the tension from the whole semester boiled over and they made out backstage like they were teens themselves again. Not at all. That would be unprofessional and irresponsible.)
#do not make out on school grounds it is a bad idea lmao but we live in fanfiction land wheeeeeee#trust me i WILL be getting to that pokemon au it activates all of my symptoms at once just thinking about it#jaytim#not fic#my writing#azol-otl#asked and answered#ask game#is this just jaytim high school musical but they're the teachers? yes. youre welcome lmao#please feel free to imagine any superboy jon kent ship of choice playing the role of gabrielle

for real WHERE does the idea that [utdr humans] are nongendered so that "you can project on them" come from. their literal character arcs are about NOT being a blank slate to be filled in by the audience
i think i understand the assumption on some level for undertale, because there is a very intentional effort to make you identify with the "player character" in order to make your choices feel like your own (the beating heart of undertale's metanarrative lies in giving you an alternative path to violence against its enemies after all, and whether you're still willing to persue it for your own selfish reasons. YOUR agency is crucial).
of course, the cardinal plot twist of the main ending sweeps the rug from under your feet on that in every way, and frisk's individuality becomes, in turn, a tool to further UT's OTHER main theme: completionism as a form of diegetic violence within the story. replaying the game would steal frisk's life and happy ending from them for our own perverse sentimentality, emotionally forcing our hand away from the reset button.
i think their neutrality absolutely aids in that immersion. but also, there's this weird attitude by (mostly) cis fans where it being functional within the story makes it... somehow "editable" and "up to the player" as well? which is gross and shows their ass on how they approach gender neutrality in general lol.
but also like. there's plenty of neutral, non PCharacters in undertale and deltarune. even when undertale was just an earthbound fangame and the player immersion metanarrative was completely absent, toby still described frisk as a "young, androgynous person". sometimes characters are just neutral by design. it's not that hard to understand lol.
anyone who makes this argument for kris deltarune is braindead. nothing else to say about it.
#this is a very difficult topic to discuss imo because on Some level I don't completely disagree with people who make that argument for chara#in SPIRIT. if not in action. like my point still stands characters can just Be neutral. and if that level of customization had been intended#well Pokemon's been doing the ''are you a boy or a girl'' shtick for ages. no reason why that couldn't have been included as well#but i do feel that we're supposed to identify with chara within the story. not as in chara is us but as in we are chara#and i think someone playing the game without outside interferences and (wrongly) coming to the conclusion that chara IS literally#themselves in the story. and thus call them by their own name (the one they likely inputted at the start) and pronouns#will be someone who grasped undertale's metanarrative more than someone who went in already spoiled on the NM route who thinks of chara#(and on some level frisk as well) as completely separate from us with independent wills and personhoods at any time#who treats them as nonbinary. even if their approach is more ''appropriate'' to a gender neutral person#systematic error vs manually changing every measure to fit what you already think is going to be the correct result. ykwim?#of course this opens a whole new parentheses while discussing the game outside of your personal experience#because even if you DO see chara as a self insert then they are a self insert for EVERYONE. women men genderqueer people#i don't call chara ''biscia'' even though that's what i named the fallen human in my playthrough. neither do i use they because i also do#if you're describing the character/story objectively in how they are executed then you're going to talk about them neutrally#because you ain't the only sunovabitch who played the darn game sonny#so like. either way you turn it. even in the most self insert reading you'd STILL logically use they/them so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ git gud#answered asks

8, 15, and 18 from the PMD Questionair c:
8. Do you add recruited PKMN to your team?
Does this mean actually using the recruits? like exploring with them, and raising their levels in dungeons and giving them good TMs, like I do w/ me Partner?
if so. nope :'D
idk every PMD game it's just been Hero and Partner for me. in the games that have recruitment - and where you can nickname them - I just let anyone that asks join the team, and i give them silly names, and they kinda just stay on standby. forever
I like that in Rescue team I can visit them and talk to 'em, and in Gates where you can more or less do the same. Explorers is a little sad bc they're like. just a list??? unless I invoke them??? :') Super feels similar.
the tl;dr is the recruited PKMN are more like buddies to me, as opposed to real recruits that I have to train to get stronger and help in the jobs. maybe they'd get annoyed about that.... ;u; or maybe not.... good story prompt either way.
15. Favorite PMD character overall?
Hydreigon.
There is no competition :D
I don't think any other PMD game has a character so lovable, so honorable, so silly, so fierce and so tender as Hydreigon. he's just out of this world.
Gates does a real good job at making you get attached to him, because that scene with Kyurem was the most brutal and cruel thing ever done in any pmd game. //////it also made me hate Kyurem's guts. I am still bitter about Kyurem to this day.
anyway Hydreigon is the MVP, no other PMD character compares
18. Best moment in any of the titles?
This is a really difficult question bc i can't pick!!!!!
I am going to randomly choose that moment in PSMD where the Tree of Life is pulled into the sky and there's dirt and big stones falling, and Partner tries to reach it by jumping on each falling stone, but they can't reach it, so everyone gives them a boost in the air. and when it's Hero's turn, it's a really cute moment that shows how much their bond has grown.
picking this one not because it's The Objective best moment in any of the titles - i myself don't really believe it is. IDK which one would be. I've also seen this scene been called corny before. - but rather, it's the moment most ingrained into my memory from any of the titles, because it feels taken straight out of an anime adaptation of PMD, and I very much dig anime-like things.
#pmd#pokemon mystery dungeon#ask game#not art#im srry i think some of these answers might not be very satisfying pmd-wise#the last one maybe#bc i be a little weirdo.

So another interesting thought would the Mega Stones and Z-Crystals react wierdly towards the Choas Emeralds and The Master Emerald?
The Emeralds tend to inquisitively 'poke' at the Mega Stones and Z-Crystals. Chaos is an unpredictable power with a very unique sentience to it. Both respective stones probably feel like a long lost 'chill' cousin to the Emeralds.
Thankfully any interaction between the two doesn't lead to a chaotic event. Although Sonic is curious if the Mega Stones or Z-Crystals could affect him similarly. It's not everyday that emeralds act 'buddy-buddy' to other magical crystals from a different world.

Thoughts about pokemon? I like ghost types :]
I love pokemon.
One of the first fandoms I was ever in. I've played some of the games (gen 4, 6, 7, 8) and I've watched some of the anime (it's huge alright, I ain't watching all of it). Also I collect cards (I don't know how to play the game tho).
My favorite types have to be dragon, fairy, psychic, fire and electric (I'm indecisive like that)
#my favorite pokemon is lucario and my favorite starter is Charizard because I'm basic#I always get so sadwhen I make pokemon teams for my favorite characters and I can't fit in lucario because it doesn't suit them 🥲#my favorite is gen 4 due to nostalgia but gen 6 is just as good. gen 7 is pretty bad and while gen 8 is a step up from 7 it's not amazing#also I'm not paying nintendo to get internet acces subscription so I haven't experienced the game properly anyway#gen 5 was fine byt I haven't played the game. not really. I got it used s and there was a save file already in so I just went to battle#I don't love the direction the pokemon art is going. these very lanky designs really bother me. also after mega evolution it went downhill#but I love pokemon#I still enjoy the franchise#ask#answered#not anon#pokemon#lucario#art#fanart#traditional art

For the little gymleader ask game
I think ghost type with a alolan marowak would be verry fitting
Nightlight the dusknoir is a bit of a nervous wreck, but she hits like a truck when she’s up for a fight! Thankfully, Dickens the marowak is willing to take any battles she’s not in the mood for.
#forgot to edit my outfit to match the typing of the gym… dang.#admittedly you can’t really see any of it past Dickens so I guess it’s okay? oh well.#brb--- gotta charge up my tablet for a while before I get to the rest of these along with my Junebug post!#Pokémon#pokemon#pokémon art#pokémon fanart#pokemon art#pokemon fanart#alolan marowak#dusknoir#ask games#stuff by sofie#sofie answers asks

For the au ask game!
OKAY I wanted specifically to get to the pokemon au from the ask you sent, it's been cooking a bit so it's time to see what comes out of the oven, so... @azol-otl ty for the ask!
Crossover au's are all about the fused worldbuilding for me and speculating on how characters from universe A would fit into universe B heehee hoohoo - and for Batfam especially it's fun to think about the equivalent of their roles as vigilantes! What kind of people have the same level of celebrity, the same sideways seeking of justice?
Naturally this leads you to the gym leaders because a) it's the most fun and b) they are like. Quasi-law enforcement/educators/professional athletes depending on how you try to translate the innate child's perspective on the pokemon universe into something that makes sense as an adult lol ilu pokemon. [insert 'compels me though' gif here]
SO with this in mind, here's 5 fun facts (that are mostly backstory lmao) from a jaytim pokemon au I would write
I'm deeply ill about pokemon so this one goes under the cut lol:
Jason Todd used to be the Champion. He won the role after Dick Grayson quit a year or two before (Dick had been getting older and chafing under the League rules - meaning he'd been chafing under how Bruce ran the League) and was a fierce competitor who didn't believe in going easy on anyone. His Houndoom was a force to be reckoned with, and despite running a mostly Dark-type team, his Honchkrow cleaned up anyone thinking their Fighting-types could sweep. He looked after the League and Gotham with a cocky, self-assured attitude and the win record to back it up. .
Jason disappeared suddenly at the age of 15. Many assumed him dead, after a Rocket (Or whatever Gotham themed gang name we want to go with lol could be Team Joker) bombing in the area he'd last been seen, but he's officially declared missing. Bruce Wayne took back the duties of interim Champion as he once did for Dick Grayson, but he's not quite the mentor he once was. It's obvious he's grieving, and that he doesn't want to mentor any more twelve year olds. Dick signed up to be a Gym Leader shortly after this, returning from his trip about a year early to help out in the chaos following Jason's disappearance. .
Enter Tim Drake. Tim's gym challenge wasn't all that interesting in the circuit at first; he had a rocky start and had to retake a few gym challenges. He wasn't exactly sweeping on his first try every time like Jason had done. He didn't have the meteoric rise that caught the Champion's attention early, didn't get one-on-one mentorship or face-to-face meetings, cautionary advice and congratulations all rolled into one from Bruce Wayne himself - but Tim had patience and grit, and he paid attention. He was gunning for the Championship, and it wasn't just so he could prove himself. Team Rocket/Joker was still out there, and Bruce needed all the help he could get. He was always better for Gotham when he had a Robin. .
Dick had been nicknamed Robin for his all-Flying-type team and especially his Natu-then-Xatu; Jason followed up with his Murkrow-then-Honchkrow; Tim's Rookidee was one among many (Robin-esque pokemon were popularized by Dick and the trend remains through Tim's day) so he wasn't considered a possible Robin successor until it was a Corvisquire and he was about to face Dick Grayson himself, a badge away from Victory Road. By then, Tim and his team were a well-oiled machine (he runs mostly Steel-types lol but also Normal-types for the unexpected adaptability and the 'underestimate my rattata i dare you it's in the top peRCENTAGE--' of it all. FEAR.), and his loss-record had all but frozen while his win-record ticked higher and higher. .
Shit finally goes down about three years after Tim has become Champion and all but bullied Bruce into mentoring him (he basically said 'if you don't watch me, i'll go find Team Rocket/Joker on my own' and triggers all of Bruce's child endangerment traumas simultaneously) and the mysterious Rocket/Joker leader Red Hood shows up, bringing the gang out of the shadows in pursuit of a hidden agenda. Identity shenanigans and "wait is that a Houndoom? But he's only been using Ghost-types, it CAN'T be..." and heel-face turns abound. .
(BONUS FACT: Something something, Jason went into deep cover with Looker or whoever he is, that Interpol guy from X & Y (WAIT. LOOKER MIGHT ACTUALLY BE TALIA AL GHUL IN THIS AU HOHOHO), infiltrating the Rocket/Joker gang and going public as Red Hood is the first step in the last phase of the sting. Cue a million tense Jaytim interactions in which Tim is legitimately trying to take Red Hood down and Jason desperately tries to shake him so that he doesn't do anything that forces Jason to blow his cover. There is at least one 'tugged into a tight space to hide them both from the actual bad guys, "wait, did you just HELP me...?" "Think whatever you want, babybird"' interaction because I am a slut for the first sprinkles of a redemption arc that is rife with UST fufufu)
#did i make this pokemon au actually an undercover spy action movie? yes. yes i did#also their full team comp i will leave to the imagination haha#everyone has their preferences for what's appropriate so i'll name a general typing preference and leave it there mostly#but I will defend Dick 'the Flying' Grayson(s) forever. all flying types for him change my mind#I like the idea of city-boy through and through street kid Jason having a stereotypical inner city team at first#but his team changes and expands as his pokemon journey really kicks off#i always think of that one short from the start of Pokemon 2000 with the inner city tire castle that pikachu finds#and the houndour that FUCKS IT UP LOL#so to me houndour is like. okay it's one of my favorite pokemon (COULD YOU TELL *glances at my banner) but it's a def an urban pokemon to m#so i like the idea of scrappy street kid Jason finding a houndour 🥺 and that was his first pokemon 🥺#so he kinda falls into dark-types in part because of the stigma around them being difficult to raise and him calling BS#and then of course he switches to ghost-types after he 'dies' in part to separate his identity as Red Hood from Jason Todd#but also for the joke of it all lmao look the dead boy uses ghost pokemon. who also have a stigma for being creepy/unlovable. i cry forever#Tim's team i am the most *shrug* about but i do think he has either a competitive team or a meme team lol#but for him i do like the aesthetics of steel- electric- normal- because Tim is the robin with secretly unhinged normal boy swag#he's out here doing the math and making you underestimate him look at his big tanky aggron lol so slow and then BAM#pikachu with light orb and x6 agility x6 double team u can't touch that rat electro ball to the face#Does his wigglytuff know thunderpunch? ice punch? fire punch? good luck guessing he switches its move set after every battle mfer#OKAY ANYWAY#ty azol for the ask!! i love pokemon i have many brainworms owo#edit: had to fix the formatting a bit to make this READABLE. God help me if it sucks to look at RIP#jaytim#not fic#my writing#ask game#asked and answered#pokemon#dc

erm are you like... doing anything for the holidays???
Yeah, just kinda taking it easy for a bit. Gifts for the boys, gifts for the friends and the paramours, and then holing up in the warm apartment in my PJs because it's too damn cold outside.
It's nice to do something low key every now and then, and see your friends make headlines.
