hey. hey. pokemon oc haver

or just oc haver. I have a prompt for you. imagine your oc in pokemon masters >:3

If your OC was in Pokemon Masters, tell me:

who their pokemon partner would be

what role they would be (strike/support/tech/field/sprint)

what tags they would have (ill grab the list in a sec - normally 1 for region or town they're from, 1 for type specialty, 2-3 for characteristics/character traits)

what could their trainer lodge partner be (aka, second partner pokemon)

what would their summer outfit, halloween outfit, new years, valentines, or other event outfit be like? :)

are there any trainers they have special voice lines with when they are added to a team/win a battle when theyre on a team with a specific trainer?

Explanation of roles: (copy pasted from bulbapedia)

Strike sync pairs, which are focused on attacking. Support sync pairs, which are focused on defending, healing HP, and increasing stats of the whole team. Tech sync pairs, which are focused on disrupting the opponents, such as lowering their stats and inflicting status conditions. Sprint sync pairs, which are focused on attacking fast and reducing the sync move countdown. Field sync pairs, which are focused on setting up field effects.

tags (real term was themed skills whoops): https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Theme_skill

IE here's it filled out for Aste!

-Main: H. Typhlosion (tech, burn & flinch causer) Sinnoh, Ghost tech, Masked, Researcher -Lodge: Trubbish/Garbodor (evolvable, shiny) (tech, poison & flinch causer) Unova, Poison tech, Masked, Researcher --Summer: Jangmo-o/Kommo-o (evolvable) (support, stat raiser) -- tbh i have some ideas brewing for their summer outfit but i'll say this: their mask is replaced with a snorkel. ... oh i have to think up a fun replacement for their cane omg (im going to draw this later) Unova, Dragon support, Nature Lover --Halloween: Porygon Z (sprint, trick room?) -- ball jointed doll esque frankenstein. Cane is decorated either like a giant bolt or maybe a lantern holder? Unova, Normal sprint, Supernatural Would have voicelines with: Ingo, Emmet, Irida, Allister, Akari & Rei, [lots of friends' ocs] (I have some of the voice lines figured out but anxious to share them bc. anxious about sharing Aste in general)

Emrys' Band of Misfits

Finally, after what feels like MONTHS; Emrys' chaos crew is finally finalized!

This is Emrys' main group of Pokémon he swaps in and out of his 6 mon team!

Cello is Emrys' first "catch"; she was a gift from Razia as an egg; and she was raised to be Emrys' service Pokémon for PTSD, depression, episodes and anger-management.

Dies Irae is Cello's himbo of a husband. He was Emrys' second catch, and was saved from a poacher trap [just a Pokémon version of a bear-trap]. His back right let had to be amputated, but he still has fantastic mobility!

Melody was Emrys' third catch on his way out of Hoenn, and Melody was evolve via traditional evolution methods for Milotic; by raising her beauty stat. She was benched after she received those gnarly scars across her scales for about 2 years; but Emrys recently pulled her from the Pasture to reconnect with her again.

Tango is Emrys' stupid little baby bitch. They are a total thief and was saved by Emrys with the aid of a Pink Carbink Tango had befriended as a Sableye pup by his own tribe of Sableye when they discovered Tango's "traitorous" ways.

Jazz and Sonata were caught without minutes of one another. Sonata was a gift from a stranger who didn't want Sonata due to Sonata not wanting to be a battling Pokémon. Emrys doesn't like battling, and typically is a contest-goer; so he happily took Sonata in.

Jazz was found soon after Sonata was added to the team. During a thunderstorm, Emrys found Jazz tucked deep inside a crack in a cave wall. Jazz electrocuted Emrys when he attempted to pull her free from the hole; frightened by his stature. It took some convincing, and promise of lots of yummy food, before Jazz agreed to come out of the hole and later joined Emrys' team.

Technologic, or Techno, was found buried in a landslide in Kalos with her father, a very large Noivern, and a much smaller Noibat. All were injured when Emrys arrived, and in great distress. Emrys rushed all of them to a Pokémon Center where it was revealed that the dad Noivern was playing with the pups when he'd hit an unstable rock within the caves they called home, causing the rockslide that trapped his pups and family in the cave. The Noibat caught under, soon named Techno, joined Emrys on his journey around the world upon the request of the father Noivern, stricken with grief at his loss. Techno was permanently blinded by her injuries, but her hearing and compassion has never wained. She evolved extremely prematurely in Alola due to mental stress and training. Emrys still isn't entirely sure why, but she's oddly proportioned because of her evolution happening far sooner than her body was ready for.

And finally, Arpeggio and Odette.

Odette was stolen from Team Verdant, one of 2 "evil" teams on Sutama. Emrys was a member for a significant time, but fled after stealing Odette after seeing the use and abuse of Shadow Pokémon being used by the team. Odette is fresh to the team, l about 2 and a half months recent; and she has a serious attitude problem.

But she's not as recent to the team as Arpeggio. Arpeggio was caught in present time, 3 weeks ago, for Emrys. Arpeggio was found losing circulation to his back legs behind a dumpster in a Sutama city alley. After rushed to a center, and getting into contact with the trainer who tossed Arpeggio, Emrys paid in full for the surgery that amputated Arpeggio's back legs and "caught" Arpeggio. They have yet to bond or get to know each other due to the recent circumstances.

And those are the cliff-notes for Emrys' Band of Misfits! I hope you enjoyed, I'd love to share more about them in the future!

Maisie finally has a Reference Sheet!!

Ahhh!!!! I finished this on the 27th, but I wanted to wait a couple of days to post this just so I’m not blowing up anyone’s timelines.

So! This is Maisie! She’s a Pokemon Trainer OC from Sinnoh and her Pokemon Team is based on my playthrough of Pokemon Platinum. I already really liked her old design but thought that she looked too close to Dawn’s Platinum outfit.

She’s an absolute sweetheart and I think she’s one of my first OC’s that I have (that I still have lol). She and my other Pokemon OC Delaney are best friends, so keep an eye out for Delaney's ref sheet too! I'm looking for poses for her right now.

Anyways, I hope you like her, and if you’d like to read more, feel free to check out her Toyhou.se Page. She also has an ArtFight Page if you’d like to draw her during the fight!

Thought it was worth it to give them a proper ref to finalize their designs... Behold! The twin conductors of Galarian Railways!

(Otherwise known as Ingo and Emmet's great great grandma and great great aunt respectively.)

Pokémon OCs Mass Post {ZIPLOCKE}

Surprise, I'm not finished!

Because I threw Emrys out into the ether of Tumblr, I feel like it's only fair to share the original, the OG, my first official Pokémon trainer OC; Ziplocke.

{Hans is here too I guess}

Ziplocke doesn't have a renewed full body reference page; but they have some new art and a new story I think is worthy of being shared at some point! For now, I just am going to share the old art/old designs and have a laugh!

Boy this is old. From 2018? I think? WOOF. Ziplocke was originally the male player character for my original Fakemon region; which I am still working on behind the scenes! After that he was used for an oooolllddd roleplay with folks I don't have communications with anymore because toxic. But Zip stayed like this for a pretty long time.

At some point I shifted Ziplocke's colour palette to be more pastel green, and ended up loving it a lot more than the former hot pink leaning colour palette. This is Zip's old team! The Bayleef is Bean, the Meowstic is Jeannie/currently Jeanette, the Floette is Aqua, the Lopunny is Jam/Jamison, and the Mew was Suki. The only 2 that have crossed over into Zip's new story are Jeanette and Aqua; as I couldn't see reason for the others working out.

This is Ziplocke's eventual new team!

Hans is Ziplocke's "rival" from Galar. They end up dating much later, and Hans is a character I actually made removed from Pokémon. He was inspired by a weird Tik Tok art challenge I did a few years ago that got upgraded because Zip needed a new love interest!

This is Hans' old design!

And finally; a connection between Emrys and Ziplocke! They are half brothers; whom never meet until well after Emrys' main storyline within the campaign I'm in. Emrys eventually ends up escorting Ziplocke and Hans through the League Challenge in Kalos; as he's an experienced traveler!

Emrys and Ziplocke catch Jeanette and Vickie at the same time, due to some dangerous circumstances. Jeanette is registered under Ziplocke and ends up being his ace Pokémon later, and Vickie is registered to Emrys.

Anywaaayysss~ That's it, that's all!

Thanks for listening, Tumblr.
