(shaymincafe) Hana smiles softly at Poni and Shinji as she watches the two interact. "Sorry to interject," she says, "I couldn't help but notice that the two of you also appear to be visiting from afar. Do they also have Mask Festivals like this where you are from? How would you say they compare to this one so far?"

@shaymincafe

Pon: Hiya!

Shin: They do have a mask festival where we live, it's pretty similar honestly.

Pon: The only thing is this time we have to wear these disguises.

Shin: What about you? Is there a mask festival or anything of that nature?

[sometimes-team-possibility]

ogre-n-partner Poni @ Yusuke: Hiya! Is this your first time at a Mask Festival? I'm used to em but I understand not everyone has been to one. Got any plans while you're here?

Yusuke: "My main plan is to be a nuisance, much like I am every day."

A professional nuisance but not professionally trained.

[rescuerivy]

@ogre-n-partner The ogerpon quickly runs up to the pair, her eyes on Ivy.

Ivy! When did you get here!? I didn't know you were coming too! Did ya get a chance to do anything yet? Wanna do something together?!

"Oh, hi Poni! We haven't done anything yet." Ivy said. She gently scratches her chin. "Typhoon and I are still thinking."

"Before you popped up, I was thinking of either searching for seashells, or playing volleyball." Typhoon suggested. "The ladder needing one more mon."

@ogre-n-partner

Looks large but not quite in charge yet... Poni stated looking up at the large mon in front of her Hey! Got a name!? What are you doing here!?

[ @ogre-n-partner ]

Pikavee: "P-Pikavee. Um, where are you all coming from...? I didn't disturb anyone, did I?"

She soon realized how pointless this was to ask, given her previous encounters already.

[ ID: A grayscale bust drawing of Pikavee slightly angled away from the viewer towards the left. She appears embarrassed, maybe confused, and her eyes are downcast. She’s blushing heavily, with the blush shown in color. Her ears are upright. Pikavee's appearance is as described here. End ID ]

Pikavee: "N-never mind. But I really don't know... h-honest. I mean, um... why I'm here."

She made a light grimace; it still hurt all over.

Pikavee: "My head is spinning... this never happened with those gems before."

[ogre-n-partner]

I'LL SHOW YOU WHO GOD IS MOTHER FU-

Off in the distance behind the Pokemon...music? It could be heard rapidly, getting louder and closer. Eventually a menacing presence could be felt

Did you pray today...?

RAT?

"Is. Is that boss music?"

"oH FU-"

[masked-vee]

ogre-n-partner Poni (gijinka) saunters over to the trio, directing her attention to Mouse.

You remind me of that eevee I saw before! I see you've brought a friend, got any plans for the festival? Now that I think about it is it your first time too?

Mouse ducks shily behind Cereza. "Princess Cereza," The Zorua bowed politely. "and this is my friend Mouse, and their faithful hilt companion, Elizabeth."

"Pleasure to met you." Elizabeth said.

[beelzilla]

PonyTown has been taking up ALL My attention when I should really be focusing on other things SO I figured I'd post my horses and then maybe I'll be released from their clutches :)

Starting with my Pokemon ones

Gremlin Heist

So here we have three little Gremlins Oger's who were feeling hungry for something sweet and came up with a foolish smart plan. A plan that might not have worked out as well as they thought.

Featuring:

Aya from @asktheoger (Stick in hand, ready for the honey to drop)

Mimipon from @ask-mimipon (On lookout, spotting trouble)

Poini from @ogre-n-partner (Climbing the tree, to get the liquid gold)

This is a piece I have been working on for a while and one of those things where I have tried to do something I don't normally. In this case, have a lot of characters on a page, more dynamic poses and building the environment for them to be in. And damn, you folk who do stuff like this all the time? You're even more amazing then I thought 'cos it is hard. Getting the scale right, making folk look natural. Even just making trees and bushes look good.

I'll be honest too. It took so long because I kept doubting things and changing stuff. You can kind make out a lot of pencil rubbing out. The trials of working with paper show and it makes me a touch jealous of the 'layer' system digital art has.

But I do love the finished piece, even with a few mistakes in it. It is a cute scene and all three characters are just the most adorable to draw.

[ogre-n-partner]

Poni frowns, looking at Sundew. She knew her pain all too well, unfortunately for her she didn't get help like she did.

Guess me and you share the same problem...though it doesn't seem like you were able to get help like I did... Poni contemplated what to say next but couldn't find the words.

@ogre-n-partner Poni looks at the fellow ogerpon up and down squinting a bit before stating...

If I didn't know any better I'd assume you have a pest problem too...how bad is it...?

“I gave them everything they wanted and what do I get?! I get knife to the back! They took everything from me! My home! My family! My masks! Because apparently I’m the monster?!” Sundew ends her rant panting. She take a moment to take a more stable breath, smoothing down her hair.

“I suppose you could say I have a pest problem at home,” she sneered, reaching down to pick up the tossed mask.

"Just me and my lil sis!" Feat Aya from @asktheoger, by @tacosoupp!

[ask-the-shiny-pokemons]

@ogre-n-partner Poni runs up to Rimi in her gijinka form.

Hiya! Didn't think I'd see you here! I don't think I got your name before, I'm Poni! How's the festival been treating you?

Oh, hey hey! Yea, we barely had time for this... I'm Rimi! It's nice to meetcha, Poni!

Rimi looks at Poni's mask with a surprised look.

[ Continuing from this ]

To be honest, the Teal Mask...isn't teal anymore. I read in a "History of Kitakami" that the Teal Mask was, in fact, indeed teal, until the original Ogerpon passed away and it was given by one of her children. For unknown reasons, the mask changed completely. Here, take a look.

This is the only known photo in the net alone. I believe there's more from the human, who visited Kitakami long time ago and met the certain Ogerpon. Sadly, nothing known about it, because the photos are believed to be in the Paldea archive, which is very classified. However, the rumors can be found in a website called: "Have you seen Hasumi?" It's probably a nickname of her when she was befriended by a human.

To add more, here are my two initial designs for the spring and autumn kiddos in our little take on the game. I plan to tackle at least one winter, and maybe a few more designs to further flesh out our concept! Poni was the first. She's based on how I initially imagined my own Ogerpon to look, and she ended up retooled into the sidekick for one half of our Julianna, Alanna. Pomm is a special lil kiddo who helps Arven collect ingredients for recipes, and loves sitting in Arven's lap! Pomm will ride on Mabostiff's neck and snuggle into the thick fur.

Initially, I figured a lot of these critters craft their wood masks after hisuian growlithes to make themselves more menacing. The older/more skilled they are, the more grand their mask. Poni and Pomm have even nicer masks after meeting Alanna and Arven.

Let's talk about Ogerpon!

I have several headcanon ideas for this little creature and you all get to suffer with me. Pure speculation and noncanon ideas follow. Most of these were developed with the considerable help of @the-starkindler!

adorable face, 10/10 no notes (drawing by @funakounasoul, thank you love!)

Let's start with a big one: The Ogerpon living on Oni Mountain is not the only member of her species. She is a member of a rare, Hoenn-based species. In the wild, they use tree bark to protect their faces, and -- being Grass-type Pokemon -- they can manipulate said bark into a useful shape. Imagine like, the Koroks from Breath of the Wild, only instead of leaves they use tree bark! This is also why the Ogerpon of Oni Mountain can carry her Teal Mask (and others) around -- she makes it smaller to carry under her cloak.

What if Ogerpons were like Deerlings and had different seasonal appearances? The Ogerpon of Oni Mountain would almost certainly be a summer variant.

Does this mean the Ogerpon of Oni Mountain is special? Sure it does. The masks made for her with shards of Tera crystals are wooden, allowing her to manipulate them just like her wild counterparts would their bark masks, but we already know that Tera crystals have some wild effects on just about anything they come into contact with. So, in theory the Ogerpon of the Teal Mask/Indigo Disk is the strongest of her kind, based entirely on her extra weapons in the form of the special masks.

Ivy Cudgel, though, is a move they all share. Don't go cutting any trees in their home forest down or you'll get to see the power of their Big Bonkin' Sticks firsthand.

Their home forest is probably limited to a small, difficult to access part of Hoenn, likely in the neighborhood of Ever Grande. Basically the Poke-equivalent of Okinawa.

One could probably make more masks like the four Oggy has and give Ogerpons even MORE type options. I would bet the craftsmanship of the masks has to be absolutely stellar though, and of course getting Tera crystals to work with might be tricky for the average person.

LOOK HOW CUTE SHE IS. L O O K

Hey listen I'm loving the comic so far, but since Terapagos canonically is male what made you turn him female?

I designed most of my DLC-related characters back in August, before either dlc came out. I got lucky with my Ogerpon character being female, but my Terapagos just happens to be off the mark a little XD

I guess the real question then would be “why didn’t you switch the gender?” And the answer for that would be I love her high pony-tail too much 🥺

[applesjuice]

I know I just posted a chapter yesterday but I'm kind of excited for next week's nonsense. Here's a little sneak peak for WIP Wednesday:

“You got guts showing up here,” Carmine marveled, an edge wielding itself within her voice that she couldn’t entirely contain.

“Carmine…” Juliana wore hurt in a dangerous way. It softened Carmine’s bristles, filed them down to be smooth, more palatable. She couldn’t allow that today of all days.

“Took you a while. Kind of slow for you, isn’t it?” Carmine didn’t know what her deal was. She didn’t blame Juliana, couldn’t fault her for all of efforts back in Area Zero. But she was there and now she was here when nobody else was; in a way Juliana became the manifestation of her torment, standing for everything Carmine was not when she needed to be more. A chill trailed down her back. She wanted the girl to hurt as much as she did, to take all of her pain the same way she always took responsibility. If one could arm themself with a mere sentence, Carmine’s stock would always be dipped in poison. “And you’ve got some nerve… Bringing the ogre here of all places?”

All of the color fled Juliana’s face and Carmine thought good when she ducked her head.

“Poni?” Ogerpon asked. The stars in her eyes glistened through the smoke from the incense. The leaves on her head curled away from it. She gave a soft “Ponio,” and let go of Juliana’s hand to walk through it and give Carmine her flower. It was with a shy flutter of lashes. Carmine smelled the autumn of the mask that she carried and quietly thanked her, not looking away from Juliana as they stared at one another in tense reserve. The line outside, or at least whoever was left in it poked their heads into the foyer with interest. 

She ignored them and eyed the way Ogerpon anxiously shifted. It was a task to contain her whimsy, to tamper down her excitement when she wanted to play. Not that Ogerpon was naive; she could read a room quite well, but she had a particular urgency to keep others happy. Usually she was utterly endearing. Tonight, however, a course of resentment had slowly been picking Carmine apart until she was only the amalgamation of her most callow traits; a collection of bitter, repelling spite. Whatever about her that was good had been stolen away along with the vigil she’d never be able abide by. She was a bare crematorium, a bone picking ceremony that could never exist. All of the kindness within her was that; empty, just like the urn that should hold her brother’s ashes. 

Her family had nothing left of him. Carmine had no remaining softness.

[asktheoger]

Walt approaches Kenji with a really excited but a bit nervous face.

"Wow, I've n-never saw a P-Pokémon like you. I've overheard y-you did pull the tree WITH YOUR BARE HANDS??? Oh, s-sorry, I've just s-surprised about it. Did you actually pull it?"

"I'm pretty strong- but there are a few things that are even difficult for me to lift-I usually don't pull them out unless I need to."

"C'mon, Papa!" Aya begged. "Can't you please show them??? PLEEEAAASEEEE???"

Kenji chuckled. "Alright, alright, sure! Why not!"

The Okidogi made his way over to one of the trees in the area and dug his hands into the bark.

Tomo glanced at the Ogerpon, then at everyone else in the area. He made sure to distance himself from Aya and beckoned Poni to follow.

Tomo said in a low whisper. "All you need to know is that most people who live here wouldn't think twice about killing my daughter. I'm sure you can put the rest of the puzzle pieces together yourself."

Miu snapped his fan shut with a sigh. "Honestly, it might be preferred if you stay, rather than leave- but I suppose you can go, as long as you don't tell anyone about us, especially any of the residents on the island."
