The year is 2050, and Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, now known as WOKEmon LIBERAL COMMUNE is being remade. It has remakes of all four games, Rescue Team is now **Rescue Theys**. Your partner will always be non binary and there are 63 gender options for your hero, though hero and partner are stigmatized terms, so now we have the social activist and the anti-racisim pal. Team Meanies is now Team LGBTQ Rights. Gengar is Gengay, Medicham is now Ru Paul, and Ekans is now Yranibnon. The meteor in the end of the game has been replaced with the capitalist party. **Explorers of Sky** is now Explorers of Activisim. The Guild is now the Liberal Party. Wigglytuff and Chatot are now a proud lesbian couple with Wigglytuff being a trans woman and Chatot being non-binary as it's too misogynistic to have only men in power. Wigglytuff is no longer the guild master but the Prime Minister of the Activists. Team Skull has been rebranded to Team Cis and represent the capitalist party. Skuntank is now Trump, Zubat is now Cishet, and Koffing is now White American. The other major change is to the future trio, Grovyle is now Wokevyle, Dusknoir is now Duskhernoir, and Celebi is now Celebisexual. **Gates to Infinity** also faces lots of changes, Paradise is now Pride 2050. Emolga is now Gayolga, Dunsparce is now Dunsparce, Virizion is Dykeion, Espeon is TWeon and Umbreon is CWeon. The Bittercold has been replaced with the Florida Governor. Dunsparce and Gayolga are a proud gay t4t couple. Dykeion and Keldeo- I mean Kelthey, stopped being friends after Kelthey triggered Dykeion by mentioning Harry Potter. Oh! I forgot to mention, but the fighting mechanics have now been replaced with debating mechanics, in which you debate the other Pokemon on the best way to stop climate change. Anyways, finally we have **Super Mystery Dungeon** called what else, but Super Woke Local Commune. Nuzleaf is now Nuzshe, and gives single mothers representation. The Expedition Society is now the Red Society (communisim) and the scariest part? This game doesn't come out in 2050. It's being written RIGHT NOW.

some more richard thoughts...
dani fell out of love w richard and left him to become a trainer about a year ago. shes actually really good at it and shes been making a name for herself! ...he wants to be happy for her but....it kind of hurts feeling like he was just holding her back....
rich didnt have any pokemon of his own.
hes from unova. he grew up in castelia
he was an office worker there. he hated it.
his age is kind of a cyrus situation where everyone assumes hes like 40 when hes not even 30 yet(29)
i think that when everything is said and done and the pokemon world is saved that...he chooses to go back to the human world. not bc he doesnt care for the paradise and the pokemon in it or anything but....
his journey to stop the bittercold inspired him. he realized that he didnt want to just... give up on his life as a human like he had been willing to...

I just found this blog so I'm jumping aboard the plushie bandwagon.
First we got Absol. (i feel like maybe i should've taken a closer-up picture but it's the face sooo)
Then a Wooloo
And, saving best for last, this Leafeon plush I own... of which I swear on my life is official merch.
I also have some more eeveelutions (plus an eevee and a few more) but: 1. I didn't want to send too many. 2. Eeveelutions are more popular so I wanted to give some other people the chance to submit their own. 3. I don't know where my Pikachu and Snivy plushies are cuz I own too many stuffed animals.
Only reason I submitted Leafeon was so I could show off this ~masterpiece~ of a plushie I own. And it's face isn't the only thing wrong with it too lol. Also I just noticed I accidentally had one of the ears hanging back but I'm too lazy to go take another photo but i hope this amuses you nonetheless.
ALRIGHT THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF YOU AS I'VE BEEN OUT WITH MY FAMILY FOR CHRISTMAS HUH
let's start with these guys. beautiful. wonderful. i do not believe that that leafeon is official merch. this statement is baffling to me. welcome to the front-facing pokémon family. i love the eyes on that absol and wooloo is one of my faves. i was rather obsessed with it when it first came out and have a whole wooloo tag on my main blog because of it. though i guess i cleared that whole thing out recently so i don't anymore
let's get the nose ratings out of the way:
↑ this is a lie. 10/10 chespin
it's very wide and also 10/10 you're being too harsh. merry day to you too
circular face indeed. did i already post this one? if i did you can have it again
clodsire be upon ye. clodsire fans this is your treat until gen 9
this is a trend now. i think tumblr just crunched this image to hell for some reason so here's what the text says:
"Felt like joining the others for front facing pokeplushies [images] I have more pokemon but its early morning and these are the plushies that are easy to access"
i have not but i imagine "a moment" has long passed by now. my apologies but apparently today was an important day or something? idk
YEAH it's super unbelievably fucked up. i think i kinda remember the circumstance being a bit dire so everyone else was more worried about either 1. protagonist getting stomped on brutally or 2. saving the world from kyurem / the bittercold. i was totally under the impression that he was dead in that moment but i guess the characters may have known that he would just come back? i seem to vaguely remember partner being surprised that he came back and being like "but we watched you die :OOO" but maybe i'm misremembering that. i do create a lot of pmd lore on my own time so i have a hard time telling the difference between canon and fanon sometimes
two a day makes the world go round! this blog started when i started college, paused for 80% of my college career and now has started back up and i just graduated college a week ago. i would say "how time flies" but it has been a very, very long year
i've said it before and i'll say it again: gen 6 is my favorite gen, so you'll be seeing lots of favor for this gen from me in the tags i'm sure. maybe gen 6 is my excuse to start doing other things here. like that stream i keep talking about
if they put meloetta as a little obscure puzzle thang in sv, i'm sure they'll do something for genesect. i hope. at least for keldeo probably. genesect i'm not sure is very popular, unfortunately, outside of the tumblr crowd. if the general public's opinion on genesect is favorable, then maybe
okay and then i tried to scroll down further in my screenshots for more asks and saw the wobbly will smith in a hospital bed Gimme a Hug, Man that i copied from the "i get a little bit genghis kanghis" post so that's it. to everyone who christmases: merry it. it is today. although it's basically over by now so! merry boxing day for tomorrow if i don't say anything tomorrow. but i probably will. now i'm gonna go queue up today's 'mons because i haven't done it yet today. see you all in a few weeks when those post
#gti spoilers#under the cut. don't look if you haven't played it it's an amazing game#not pkmn#nose ratings#about to queue up gogoat and pancham so be ready for those in a while

Hi! This is actually my first time doing an ask like this, but I just have to cuz sweet and sour dipplins is just so good!
I know I'm like way late to this, but I read chapters 20 and 21 together. By the end of it I couldn't help but think about the connections between the reveals there and some of the other pokemon lore that might be attached. All of the stuff happening almost made me forget about the applins, but once I started thinking about it I remembered a theory I saw someone else had (I forget who 😖) that thought maybe the applins were reshirsm and zekrom. Which considering every thing we've been seeing is dealing in 3s, made me think of kyurem. That led me to think of other things kyurem is related to, namely pokemon mystery dungeon gates to infinity, where kyurem is originally the antagonist until you discover it's actually the Bittercold. Which then got me thinking about super mystery dungeon and dark matter. Now I could be completely overlooking something that's literally in the main game, but dark matters appearance sounds an awful lot like that carved symbol in briars lab, rings and spike. All of this to say, I had this feeling like everything pecharunt has been doing feels like an awful lot of conviction for a singular pokemon, there has to be something driving this right?
Anyways my question is are you a fan of the mystery dungeon games?
(Context: ask references this theory)
xDDD The @kekstala effect. Oh my god the way I would love to just sit down with everyone who theorizes to just listen quietly like a fly on the wall. Thank you for sharing all this! I'm verrrryyy selective about how I respond to theories 'cause it may give away some of where the plot is going, so I don't have too much to say directly. I can see what you're trying to do by asking me about the mystery dungeon games. xD
All I have to say is that I'm not going to be writing in a way where something random seems shoehorned in by the end of the story; I aim for storytelling to be gradual and linear (and I will especially work things around to do this with unplanned things). So whatever happens hopefully happens as seamlessly as possible in terms of cohesion. :)

Im having…emotions about the beauty of pokemon mystery dungeon gates to infinity again…
Everyone remembers Virizion’s quote but a big part of the game is contesting it and proving that there is something that can be believed in, and that’s what you and your Partner create. In this world full of liars and cheats, you and your partner create a little part of the world where hope can flourish.
A small, tiny, cosmically insignificant part of the world where hope lives, and when the time for The Bittercold comes around, that small, tiny, cosmically insignificant part of that world is why it gets to continue licing. God I’m still not over it.

eve mentioned on his own liveblog of gates that there are less pokemon that spawn in great spire because most pokemon cant handle being so close to the bittercold and that being fantastic gameplay/story integration, and i just want to add on that a lot of the pokemon you DO find in great spire are asleep and you cant wake them up by walking by them. you have to attack them to wake them up
#theyre not just stronger foes that are kept asleep for an optional challenge like in earlier dungeons either#they’re regular dungeon mons that are basically suffocating in there. jesus christ#echoed voice#pmd posting

Marcus: Hello? Is this thing on?
Solace: Can you...hear us?
Céline: Hey, I see something! I think we've connected!
Aster: And it only took us fifteen hours!
Marcus: ...I can't tell if that's sarcasm or genuine happiness.
Aster: Both!
Solace: ...
Céline: Guys! We can't get distracted again. Everyone can see us!
Marcus: Right. Sorry. Um, greetings, humans of this world! I am Marcus, and I —
Aster: C'mon, you don't need to be so formal! Humans of this weird world with no Pokemon, hiya! I'm Aster, the Fraxure who looks like he could kill you but is actually a cinnamon roll is Marcus, the Typhlosion who looks like she could kill you and actually could kill you is Solace, the Chikorita who looks like a cinnamon roll but could actually kill you is Céline, and the Delcatty who looks like a cinnamon roll and actually is a cinnamon roll is me, Aster!
Solace: I wouldn't call you a cinnamon roll by any means, Aster.
Céline: And I wouldn't say you look like one, either.
Aster: I'm just trying to lighten the mood a bit!
Marcus: Well, now that the mood is lightened, I'll describe what we're doing here. You see, Umbreon, Espeon, and Keldeo were fiddling around with some Magnagate stuff with the help of Hoopa, and by combining Entercards with a hoop portal, they were able to peek at a world without Pokemon. That's still the strangest thing to me. Even in the so-called human world, we still had Pokemon; they just weren't dominant like they are here.
Solace: The researchers...decided to establish communication with this...weird world, and since all four of us were once humans, we were volunteered to be the ones to communicate. I don't completely understand...this "tumblr" thing, but I think there's a way for you to ask us questions, and so we'll do our best to reply...and tell you about our world.
Céline: You can ask our friends questions too, if you want, but they probably won't be as active here as we are.
Aster: Now, I suppose we should introduce ourselves! The four of us are known to the Pokemon world as the Four Human Heroes, because we were all humans that were turned into Pokemon, and we all saved the world. I'm Aster, and I'm originally from the human world, specifically the Hoenn region, which is the best one. I'm also dead! Well, I died as a human, that is. Then my spirit became a Skitty, I met my partner, Charizard — well, he was Charmander then — and we got Rayquaza to blow up an incoming meteor that was causing all sorts of natural disasters. Not sure how a meteor can cause forest fires, but whatever.
Solace: I...am Solace, hailing from a future that didn't come. After an...accident — actually an attack — while crossing time, I was turned into a Cyndaquil. I joined Treecko, who's now called Sceptile, to form an exploration team, and together, we put the Time Gears into Temporal Tower...and stopped the planet's paralysis before it could begin.
Marcus: I'm Marcus! Unlike the other two, I can visit the human world whenever I want, and I can remember my past with perfect clarity. I'm from Unova, and I was selected by the Voice of Life to become an Axew, destroy the Bittercold, and save the Pokemon world. I couldn't have gotten this far without my partner, Dewott, and all my teammates back in Pokemon Paradise.
Céline: I'm Céline, and I lived in Kalos a long, long time ago. I was summoned to the Pokemon world to fight Dark Matter, but while Mew and I managed to destroy its physical form, we knew it would come back one day. In the present day, I came back as a young Chikorita, and Mew was reincarnated as my best friend Fennekin! This time, we managed to defeat Dark Matter for good — not by destroying it, but by accepting it. As of now, Fennekin and I are still working hard in the Expedition Society — much better than having to go to school!
Gengar: Kekeke! I'm here too!
Aster: Nobody invited you, Gengar.
Gengar: Send me lots of asks!
Solace: ...Get out.
(OOC: Hello! Welcome to my new askblog! While this does take place in the same 'verse as my fic, Tenacity, which means that Aster is the same Aster that Zinnia mentions in ORAS, I'm not really trying to get readers. I just want to have fun with my interpretations of the main characters from the four PMD games that are out globally. I do have some rules, however:
No NSFW asks. Anything inappropriate will be ignored.
Please don't spam. Spammed asks will be ignored.
Nothing bigoted.
No political questions. That'll just incite a flame war.
I reserve the right to answer/not answer any ask.
No Magical Anon asks, please.
I'll make more rules if I need to.
Update 1, 7/1/2023: RP asks/in-character asks from other askblogs are totally fine. Just wanted to clarify that.
The pictures I use are portraits from the PMD Sprite Repository. Special credit to Opalite, mucrush, and baronessfaron for what I used in this post.
I look forward to your asks!)

Ok so Bittercold and Dark Matter. I am not over this.
(This became a sort of analysis of GTI's themes too LMAO)
My issue with Dark Matter is that there was little build up to it. I'm not talking about it's actual presence, but rather what it represents. "The negative feelings of all pokemon" then where was this negativity in the story?
I understand that the main theme of Super was connections and all. The protag duo helping and being helped by different pokemon are a consistent Thing in the plot. The climactic fight with Dark Matter involves pokemon coming together to stop its ascent.
But I ask again, where was the negativity that Dark Matter was apparently born from within the story? Krookodile?? The Partner having self-doubt?? Pancham and Shelmet being mean?? Nuzleaf and co??? These are all less "incidents of negativity the Dark Matter was born from" and more "general plot events/stuff the villains do".
So it feels like the concept of the Dark Matter feels like it came out of nowhere.
Compare it to how GTI handles the Bittercold. It's the manifestation of all pokemon's collective desire for the end of everything. The loss of hope for better circumstances. And is there narrative build up to this? As a matter of fact, yes!
From the beginning, it's established that the pokemon world in GTI is becoming more and more selfish/dangerous/distrustful etc etc. Gurdurr's and Verizion's arcs connect to this, with both of them choosing to close themselves off from the world. Dunsparce's arc too, to a lesser extent. His first few attempts to get "stronger" end in trouble, almost as if being discourages from having hope to achieving his dream. It isn't until they meet the Protag duo that they have their Character Development™
It all connects to the overall theme of "Believing in other people" and having hope in the face of uncertain circumstances and pessimistic fatalism--which is the opposite "side" in the story, represented by the Bittercold itself, as well as Kyurem and Munna's gang.
We get to see the effects/source of the Bittercold ourselves because we got dialogue like this:
(screenshot courtesy of @rutabga)
AND because characters losing hope/being unwilling to trust others happens several times in the story. Even during the climax.
In other words, the feelings that makes up that the Bittercold is composed of is present throughout the story. So when the Bittercold itself was actually introduced, it made sense for when it was explained what it truly was.
THIS is the build up I was looking for with Dark Matter.
The final stretch of the Player being supported by the voices of the Partner and other pokemon in Paradise/Post Town hits SO much harder compared to Super because of this, despite having less people.
And you know what else? The Bittercold itself could be considered a narrative foil to the Partner. Partner's goal is to make a pokemon Paradise and help others--the ideological opposite of the Bittercold (or rather, what it represents). AND IT'S GOOD!! it gives the Partner so much more Narrative Depth and I love it.
Even the concept of it specifically being ice and found within a glacier dome is sorta neat? A "cold" person is someone who remains closed off from others. It's literally ice. It's found in the heart of a glacier that's isolated from the rest of the world by 1.) A castle (and Kyurem) 2.) A HUGE DOME 3.) "uncrossable" crevasses--once again tying into the idea of staying isolated from the rest of the world.
In conclusion: Dark Matter/the stuff it represents doesn't have much of a presence in the narrative and thus makes Super's narrative as a whole weaker. Meanwhile, I hate the Bittercold as a boss fight but goddamn is it great as a symbolic entity and ties together the themes of the game.
#rey rambles#pmd gti#this is mostly me going on a stream-of-consciousness rant but akjsdjkasd#Bittercold my dearly detested#I could make another post about how Protag not being 'special' also enhances the narrative but eh#I can talk so much about GTI's story man.#I wish the gameplay was better because I feel like the story could be just as good or even surpass EoS

Where am I?
Is this a dream?
Someone is calling to me...
Welcome to Paradise!
(Spoilers for Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, Gates to Infinity! Duh!)
This blog will be following the adventures of Axel the Axew and friends as they fight hard to defeat the Bittercold!
It will take the form of a Pokemon IRL/Rotomblr blog, so most posts about the games events will be in character from the protagonist Axel.
Basically just a fun little excuse for me to play through Gates to Infinity again while sharing the experience with all of you :)
I'll do my best to keep up with things!
Current story position: Post Pawniard fight!
More information under the cut!
In character posts will be tagged #Axel Speaks, ooc posts will be marked #ooc. Other notable characters will talk in different coloured text.
Asks and questions are heavily encouraged, but I would appreciate if you refrained from sending Axel spoilers in character. Any such asks will be deleted, along with the usual DNI of NSFW stuff. (Pelipper mail and Magic anons are also off for now so as not to disrupt canon).
This blog is run by @nbtelethia! Follows and likes will come from there. I also run other pokemon irl blogs, such as @justalileepguy. Check them out if you feel like it :)
Uhhh Anything else I can think of will be added here later. If I make a mistake let me know! I make those sometimes!

PMD Hero and Partner Week Day 3: Villains
Day 3 of Hero and Partner Week and the choices were friends, villains, and promise and I actually chose villains. Now I decided to use this day for the villains who were also victims of the circumstances that led them to become what they were from Gengar who felt jealousy and spite due to the curse he later broke to even Nuzleaf and the Beheeyem who didn't want to go to the Voidlands. So for this I chose Munna from Gates to the Infinity with my team Infinity team, Team Hope with Hero Sharpleaf the Snivy and partner Pikachu Mirai but for this it'll actually be focused on Munna and Mirai.
“Here’s your juice dear.”
“Thank you Kangaskhan.” Munna nodded her thanks to the owner who smiled and walked off. Munna used Psychic to lift her cup sipping the juice while looking at the return letter from Gigalith glad to know he was doing well. It had been a difficult choice in separating the group but they all agreed they needed to make up for the crimes they committed alongside Kyurem. Hence why they all agree to go their separate ways to spread help to other pokemon in their own way. She had come to Noe Town by chance after helping some traveling pokemon that wanted to reach it and decided to stay a while for rest.
“No way! Is that you Munna?!” The Dream Eater pokemon jumped by a sudden shout looking to see a female Raichu looking at her surprised much to her confusion.
“I'm sorry, do I know you?” She asked. The Raichu looked surprised before then having a sudden realization and smiled sheepishly.
“Ah right you wouldn't recognize me like this.” She admitted before smiling “It's me Mirai from Team Hope.”
Munna had to do a double take at this. Was this really the same too honest for her own good pipsqueak Pikachu? Evolution truly changed her but in a good way even Munna had to admit. Mirai looked more mature and stronger but she could still see that child-like cheerfulness that just radiates from her.
“Wow, it's been a while.” Munna replied.
“Yeah since the battle against the Bittercold.” Mirai agreed, taking a seat. “Everyone in Post Town and Paradise haven't seen you and your friends since.”
“We agreed about spreading out help to other pokemon who need it.” Munna stated. “It's the least we could do after what we’ve done.”
“That's great to hear you're moving forward with the hope you were able to find that day.” Mirai smiled.
“I suppose we are.” Munna shrugged. “I guess congratulations are in order for your Evolution.”
“Oh thanks!” Mirai smiled cheerfully. “We had gotten a Thunder Stone as a reward for a mission and the team talked me into using it. Best decision ever. I feel like I can do better for my team and for Paradise!”
“Speaking of, why are you here? This seems a bit far from Paradise.” Munna remarked.
“Oh! Well actually there was this mission that required a strong electric type and our team was recommended.” Mirai explained proudly. “Naturally we accepted and here we are!”
Munna truly admired Mirai, through all the hardships, she could still smile and enjoy helping other pokemon in need no matter what. The world needed more pokemon like her; this was something Munna understood. All the more reason…
“I'm sorry.” Munna spoke, surprising Mirai.
“Sorry? What for?” Mirai blinked surprised.
“For all the stuff me and my friends did to you guys, especially for kidnapping you.” Munna explained. “I never got the chance to say it so I wanted to do it now.”
Mirai looked surprised but then smiled. “Water under the bridge Munna. You guys had your reasons and though you made bad choices, you're making up for them now and that's what matters.” She smiled.
“.... You know you are way too honest for your own good.” Munna deadpanned.
“Heh yeah I get that a lot.” Mirai admitted sheepishly.
“Hey Mirai.” They both looked up seeing a Servine looking around. “It's time to get going.”
“Ah coming Sharpleaf!” Mirai called, before turning to Munna. “Mission time see you later Munna and swing by to Paradise!”
With that Munna watched Mirai quickly meet with Sharpleaf watching the partners talk before leaving the establishment and she couldn't help but give an amused smile and sipped her juice. Some things never change.

thought about this idea again...
just...something about the bittercold originally being more or less a non sentient object created by the negativity of pokemon that...didnt have a will of its own getting "reborn" as a pokemon...
still clinging onto the negativity and bitterness that originally created them for sure but also just.... getting to live its own life...
