#pokemon fanfic idea

[yellow-anonymous]

Ok so I've got this Pokémon fanfic idea that's been consuming my brain thoughts for the past hour or so and I want to get it out there so it doesn't just drift off into the void

Basic Plot Blurb: Main Character travels through the Orre Region, currently going through a tumultuous period of change on an ecological and social scale, and deals with their three Rivals along the way.

Why Orre? Well if I recall correctly, Orre is essentially Pseudo-Lawless Pokémon Australia, and therefore I can use the whole pseudolawless bit to justify Orre having a wide Pokémon variety and differences in locals with the same plot point: uncontrolled Pokémon emigration. This directly leads to the nearest Pokémon league stepping in to lay down some law and order.

I guess the theme for this whole story would be "dealing with change"? Or maybe rather "how people deal with change". There's no evil team (or at least, no focus on an evil team), no real focus on the Pokémon League because they're still getting set up in Orre, this is primarily character drama between the Main Character and their three rivals. It's also dealing with content that's a bit darker/more heavy than what Pokémon usual fare is. Not full on creepypasta or edgy dark fic fare, but something heavier than "Football Hooligans Applaud for Marnie Too Hard and Are Annoying" and yet more grounded than "Hey, Let's Release the Embodiment of Anti-Matter So I can Rewrite Reality" or "What if I glassed my entire country except for the people who join my fire themed rich person playhouse"

Who're the three rivals? Well, we've got:

Tyson Michaels, a macho, energetic young man who focuses on the Fighting Type. He fulfills the "Friendly Rival" archetype, challenging the Main Character to test how dedicated you are to strengthening your team and yourself.

John/Jane Doe (if this were a fan game/actual Pokémon game their gender would change to be the opposite of the player's), someone with a rather smug attitude and immense skill at Pokémon battling and training. They have a large roster of Pokémon. (Again, if this were a fan game, J-D's Pokémon would usually be of a higher level than expected for this point in the game, and also their roster would depend on what Pokémon are in the area preceding their fight and what you've used against them beforehand, representing them "predicting" you.) They represent the "Mean Rival" archetype.

And finally, Ashley Salems, a morose young woman who seems... out of sorts, or on a different wavelength. She's out of tune with the social norms of the Pokémon world. She focuses on the Ghost and Dark types (they're seemingly drawn to her; by "end game" her roster would be a pretty even split of Ghost and Dark, with whatever other types the Pokémon would happen to have), and represents a sort of in-between between the "Friendly" and "Mean" rival archetypes. She's not snobbish or haughty, nor is she relentlessly cheery; occasionally she'll have bouts of snapping or lashing out if she loses her cool, but otherwise she's friendly if rather asocial.

So the deeper(ish) aspects to this little group of four are kinda spoilery (can an idea that hasn't even been written down yet have spoilers? I dunno), so I'm gonna put them under a "read more".

Okay, so. Two out of four of this cast of three plus the MC are actually reincarnated from the human world. It's like a weird Isekai scenario where the Main Character is a born-and-raised resident of the world and some of the major characters are newcomers. This is meant to tie into the whole "How people deal with change" thing.

Ashley Salems and John/Jane Doe are the reincarnates.

J-D is meant to be a take on the "Pokémon power fantasy fic", where the self-insert/OC-MC is cool and an awesome trainer and they've got it all figured out the instant they start training their first Pokémon. And yeah, J-D's got all of that... but J-D, unlike some of the power fantasy MCs they're pastiche-ing, has trouble seeing the people around them as... actual people. They're not an emotionless monster unable to connect with their fellow man and Pokémon, but they've got this aura of condescension underneath their confidence, like they believe, subconsciously or otherwise, that they're the only one who's actions really matter or that they know what to do and everybody just needs to get behind them and it'll all work out. They look like they've got it all, but the one thing they've got trouble getting is social connections and anchors, something that starts to really stress them out as the story goes on.

Ashley, meanwhile, is struggling to adjust. Even after growing up to teenager-dom, she still struggles to adapt to the Pokémon world's social mores and hidden rules (and eventually she just sort of... stopped trying to adapt), and she's become something of an outsider because of that. (Some jackass being a snobbish dick? Just punch him in the face! Why are you all looking at me like that, he deserved it! No, I will not engage in a Pokémon battle with you, get over yourself!) On a deeper level, she's also kind of upset (and dealing with some self-loathing) because... where is her family? Why was she the only one to get isekaied into the comparative paradise that is the Pokémon world? What the actual f***, Arceus?? She starts out already something of a mess and she only gets worse over time until it all finally boils over near the end.

In regards to how they tie into the central "theme" of the idea, J-D is meant to represent someone who takes "going with the flow" to something of an unhealthy degree. They adapted to their change in circumstance, certainly, but can it really be said they did so successfully, or in a healthy way?

Ashley, on the other hand, represents somebody who can't/couldn't/wouldn't adjust. Not necessarily from lack of trying, but at some point, Ashley threw up her hands and said "f*** it, I can't deal with this anymore" and tried to retreat as far back into her comfort zone as she possibly could, content to keep to her own little bubble even as she slips more and more without anchors to grab onto.

Honestly I'm also considering having Tyson also be a reincarnate, but contrasting J-D and Ashley by someone who successfully "went native". Like, you would not be able to tell this gym bro living his best life was originally a slightly-tubby nobody from a throughly middle-class American family unless he told you. If he could do it, surely the others could as well?

What do you guys think? Sometimes I worry whenever I think of darker-than-Game-Canon Pokémon ideas because I feel like people are going to take one look at a major character being sad or mopey and then writing the whole thing off as being edgy cringe, but hopefully this whole thing doesn't come across as being too pointy-pokey-stabby if you catch my drift.

New chapter of my pokey mans fic is up. It features the phrase 'shit-teenth of Fucktember'.

[sannencarts]

Working on some art to go with the upcoming chapter of TtH. Consider this a sneak peek.

[justaz]

gwen and merlin have the same taste in men (merlin jokes about their abysmal taste and gwen shoots back that she used to have a crush on him and he’s just like “yeah. exactly. horrible taste”). they both liked lancelot but merlin got him first (they definitely slept together. at least once. tell me i’m wrong.) and gwen was happy for them but she also liked him but was mainly happy. then they broke it off and lancelot left and gwen was like “damn, i’m sorry…anyways how was he in bed?” and merlin goes from :( to >:) and tells her everything.

they both like arthur but arthur courts gwen first. merlin is happy for them but he also loves liked him but he’s mainly happy. then they don’t work out and merlin is APPALLED. gwen is just like “i really love lancelot and arthur really loves you so this works out” and then goes and makes out with lancelot. merlin doesn’t even get the chance to ask how arthur is in bed :( but then arthur comes to him and confesses and merlin is able to know first hand what he’s like in the sack sooo a win is a win

[lucky-clover-gazette]

the relationship between volo and (adult) player character in a "volo wins and brings the player with him" au would actually be insane. levels of toxicity unfathomable to anyone outside of that fucked-up dynamic. the degree of obsession he would have with earning the respect of the single sentient being in the world with actual free will... the way she could use that obsession against him... messy messy messy, should have just stayed in hisui

[doodlejoltik]

they acknowledged it directly!!!! going INSANE over this line

Arceus choosing to speak to the whole stadium when he only ever talked to Rei before. Volo and Rei being on an equal playing field now... Rei unable to form a comeback, because it's true

it seems to me that Arceus originally tried, and failed to reach Rei... but why?

also adding in this screenshot from his sync pair story. just Because

Fanfic ideas swim in my head like carp in a koi pond; aesthetically pleasing, but expiring when removed from their native habitat.

[mysticlanternlight]

Wanted to experiment with a watercolor brush. Took some screenshots of Steven Universe’s Sworn to the Sword and recreated them with Dawn and Cyllene, I think it fits them pretty damn well. Bonus Dawn with Ingo doing fighting poses.

CATER DIAMOND'S POKEMON TEAM

Navigation: Ace | Deuce | Trey | Cater | Riddle | Leona | Ruggie | Jack | Azul | Jade | Floyd | Kalim | Jamil | Vil | Rook | Epel | Idia | Ortho | Malleus | Lilia | Sebek | Silver | Chenya |

Starter Pokemon:

Pikachu (Electric) to Raichu(Electric)

I think the two Pokemon Yellow starters would be best for Cater.  They're both cute until full evolution. 

I chose Pikachu for Cater because it’s electric and perfect for social media posts. He can dress up the pikachu while being great in gym battles too.

2. Rotom (Ghost, Electric)

Cater is an easygoing fun person and I can imagine Rotom saw him as interesting and fun to be with enough to follow him around.

3. Floatzel (Water)

I just think Floatzel is a cool pokemon for Cater to have. It can be any cool looking pokemon in general.

4. Rockruff into Lycanroc (Midday Form) 

A rockruff or any cute small dog pokemon is Cater’s childhood pokemon growing up. He needs that emotional support of a pet dog.

A Lycanroc is a cool dog pokemon and fits Cater’s style in my opinion. I chose the Midday Form because compared to the other forms, this type of Lycanroc can be both playful, cool and serious at certain times. The other forms might be too serious for his style.

5. Chewtle to Drednaw (Water, Ground)

Chewtle is goofy looking but cute and Cater has it because he finds Chewtle chewing a lot adorable.  Just like Lycanroc, Dednaw will be one of his intimidating pokemons in gym battles. 

Cater will snuggle Drednaw and still find him cute as a chewtle even though he's not anymore.

Oddish(Grass, Poison) to Bellossom (Grass)

Cater’s Bellossom is the dancing type pokemon and he will record every dance moves and show it in the internet.

Conclusion:

Cater’s pokemons should mostly be cute for magicam purposes but he would be the type to have cute pre-evolution pokemons like Chewtle and Rockruff.

Cater's Pokemons if he was the trick king:

Cater's pokemons is pretty much the same as the first one but Lyncaroc and Oddish will have a different way of evolution. Cater will have Lyncaroc's Midnight form and a Vileplume.

Vileplume (Grass,Poison)

I just think Vileplume being a poison type adds to Trick King Cater's style. Vileplume is still cute regardless.

Yamask (Ghost)

According to the pokedex, Yamask holds a mask to remember its old face and I believed that Cater wears a mask to conceal his true feelings. They might have different reasons of holding a mask but it's about identity and having a mask in general is what bonded them.

Also, because Cater having a Yamask boost the possible of being edgy/j

Funny things in Baby Steps, my unfinished Pokevillain fanfic

Alright, after spending too long in a severe depression hole and also spending like way too much time at work, here I am again!

This is gonna be my first update on the Pokevillain fanfiction that my last post was about. What I’m doing is reading through those 43 pages and just get a base understanding of what the fuck I was even doing.

To have all of you be part of this, you’ll get my live thoughts about it! So be ready for some shitposting and a few sneak peeks at the story haha

Cyrus insisting on just being called ‘Cyrus’ because ‘Mr. Akagi’ reminds him of his father is such a mood. Also, yeah, I use their japanese names as their last names, except Guzma, because Guzmas japanese name is Guzma lol So for him I just used his german name ‘Bromley’. Such an ass name

Having stayed in a hospital for the first time not too long ago, 2020 me was surprisingly accurate when it came to hospital food

“What do you think? Aren’t you supposed to be incredibly smart?” She kept smiling, but Cyrus knew it was fake. It had been ever since she entered. It was the same smile his mother always had when talking to guests or clients. God I hate Cyrus nurse, I made her such a bitch lmao

Forgot I made Cyrus lactose intolerant lol

That smile made Cyrus want to go back into the distortion world No comment needed

‘New Guy’ seemed like a major downgrade from ‘God of a new dimension’ but for now, having terribly failed the latter one, the first one was acceptable. 2020 me had banger humor

Guzma looking at Cyrus and just going “You’re my friend now” is how I make all of my friends

Ah yeah, Giovanni is there because of another failed attempt, except for Guzma the rest is there because of court mandation and Guzma is there because Nanu got him a spot.

almost like touching a Rotom that couldn’t quite control its energy. Foreshadowing? Maybe

Guzma immediately having Cyrus back even when Cyrus is clearly in the wrong is so funny to me

Aaaaaaaah gays bonding over piano music

Ah yes, Maxie and Archie are divorced husbands. Yes, they still love each other, yes, Maxie still actively wears his wedding ring while Archie always has it on him somehow

“Hey fuckers, time for lunch!” Mood Guz

Lysandre desperately trying to socialise with his roommate only to routinely be fucked over by his own shitty mental health and eating disorder is too real man

Dr. Roberts is such a kind soul, he’s the therapist OC I created specifically for this story and he’s just a sweetie who’s fantastic at his job and also, obviously, gay and married with a couple kids.

Cyrus went to college (duh) and majored in: Electrical Engineering, Economics, Computer Engineering, Political Science and Computer Science. And finished all his majors in 4 years. Yikes dude, my boy just wanted to study the stars but he was denied by his bullshit parents

Ah yes, Cyrus sister. Buckle in people, time for a bit of lore:

So we all remember the Old Chateau in Eterna Forrest back in gen 4, right? Right. For a long time there was a theory that perhaps Cyrus grew up in that house. How did we come to that conclusion? Basically, Cyrus in Platinum (and the USUM Rainbow Rocket episode) has a severe obsession with the Pokemon Rotom, supplying Charon with detailed notes and diaries all about it and in the Rainbow Rocket episode, he nearly has a breakdown upon seeing the Rotom dex. Now where do you find Rotom in Gen 4? Hiding in a TV in the Old Chateau. So, we theorized that Cyrus grew up there. What else do we find in the Old Chateau? The spirits of a butler and a small girl. So, the theory goes that Cyrus used to have a little sister, but she and a butler of the family were killed in an accident, probably involving the Rotom Cyrus kept, most likely hidden from his parents. Afterwards, his family moved to Sunyshore, leaving the Chateau, where Rotom was still hiding, possibly having come back in search of it’s friend (Cyrus) and then hiding in the TV because it was scared as it was alone, Cyrus nowhere to be found, and sought comfort in the electrical appliance. That’s how the theory goes. This theory is true in my story.

Maxie and Archie being extremely angry bordering on violent with each other makes me sad. And I wrote this shit!

The fact that Cyrus, on his first day there, immediately has a panic attack in the evening is relatable.

Also, Giovanni helps him through it and they start bonding and being cute hehe

For every scene involving stargazing, be aware that I have zero idea about stars. I grew up in the middle of fuck nowhere, so I can see them very clearly each night, but I still have little to no idea about how to read stars lol

Lysandre has anorexia and Cyrus is way too oblivious to understand that it’s ana so he’s just constantly like “wow youre thin” until it clicks lmao

Saturn, Jupiter, Mars and Charon are just codenames and Cyrus never bothered to learn their actual names. Is this also foreshadowing? Maybe hehe

YES CYRUS STAND YOUR GROUND TO THAT PISS POOR EXCUSE OF A NURSE i hate her so much man

Cyrus is a deeply kind person. I will not elaborate yet

Yes, Maxie and Archie get over their shit and back together

Yes, it spirals Giovanni into another suicide attempt

No, I shall not elaborate how one leads to the other

But yeah, there’s a pretty intense part of this that deals with Giovannis shitty mental state and his active suicide attempt (that only barely failed) and Cyrus ends up having a severe breakdown because of it. Like I said in my last post, this story deals with some heavy topics.

Guz and Ly really take on the roles of dads to Cyrus, to help him be more open in his expression and just be who he is and I think that’s beautiful

His breath was caught in his throat, his chest and stomach spreading a comfortable warmth through his body.

What was this? A heart attack? 

No, those felt different. There was no stabbing pain. I love writing Cyrus

THERAPY POKEMON EVERYONE yes the leaders are getting therapy Pokemon

Here’s a list of who they get:

Giovanni: His Persian

Maxie: Toxel

Archie: Hypno

Cyrus: His Rotom

Ghetsis: Castform

Lysandre: Levanny

Guzma: His Golisopod

I’d love for yall to theorize on why each leader gets their respective Pokemon! I actually put some thought in all of them haha

Cyrus grandfather has a big role in Cyrus’ recovery, and it starts with a simple visit that is still one of my favorite parts of this story so far

Cyrus grandfather (Paul Akagi) is the polar opposite to his parents, Paul is kind, loving, supportive and really just wants Cyrus to be happy and their relationship???? it warms my heart

A big part of connection for all of the leaders, specifically everyone else and Ghetsis, is a broken piano in the common room that they all work together to fix and that piano really is a symbol for Cyrus’ recovery and especially his willingness to get better.

GUZMA IS TRANS and this is a fact because I am trans and I said so. Also Ghetsis is a bigot. End of sentence lol

Ghetsis saying some transphobic shit and Guzma then going to PULL HIS NON PARALYZED ARM OUT OF ITS SOCKET is such a girly pop move

Also yes everything I’ve written so far ends on Maxie and Archie remarrying and Dr. Roberts allowing everyone to drink alcohol in celebration and yes of course it escalates lol

Alright everyone, that’s it for now, I’m all caught up, hopefully I’ll get some time to actually write a bit more the next few days. 

As always, please please please interact with this, tell me your thoughts so far, ask questions, I NEED IT okay cool thank you.

I have work tomorrow so I shall go and kill myself lol

Have a great whenever you are! Stay hydrated

Love all of you.

Crossover: Danny Phantom & Pokémon

Fanfic idea

Danny become a ghost type Pokémon because of the portal his parents made (but still can change to a human, because he’s still halfa)

But Vlad is simply a human with ghosts type powers/attacks who can change into a human ghost, not a Pokémon ghost. (So there would be 2 different kind of halfas)

Obviously it’s Danny Phantom world with pokémons in it, there’s still humans ghosts. I guess they might have ghost type attacks tho…
