#ring the bronzong

[vbholidayfestival]

Earlier this year he destroyed this machine; of course Red needs to go for it, this season.

Wow. It'd be embarrassing if he messed this up.

Red rolls his shoulders, stealing the comically large hammer into his hands.

🔨!

"Hey there! I guess you're more than ready to test your strength." Trip steps back. "Let her rip!"

The puck goes up, just past the halfway point before crashing down. "Doesn't look like you made it. Maybe next time you can show us your strength."

Scratching his head, Red is seemingly at a loss for words. He didn't make it, not this time. Admittedly, he was at least slightly disappointed, but the champion knows that isn't some macho man, even with all strength and muscle considered.

With a shrug, Red sighs, handing off the hammer to the next person in line.

He'll be back, tomorrow.

Gay bastards

Let's name their ship SteelRingShipping

The ring is not a circle, but a ringing sound

Cuz Colress using steel type pokemon and Saturn has bronzong

Bronzong is a bell and they ring and steel things ring, in general, you understand the logic, I hope

[socks-wizard-money-gang]

I love knowing almost nothing about what's happening currently because every time I see "bells tolling" I'm in my corner immediately thinking of a Bronzong named HELL BELL

OH WAIT THAT NAME RINGS A BELL (pun intended)

[diamond-vic]

Rascalf- the calf Pokémon - Dark type

It adores attention and uses the bell on its neck to draw people towards it. It will feign helplessness to be pampered and protected. It is usually rather bratty and will refuse to do anything it is told that could get it even remotely dirty. Despite this, it likes playing pranks on those around it.

Bovidol - the false idol Pokémon - Dark/Steel type

In the past, when people spread rumors by word of mouth, legends of a deity bell Pokémon that could bring rains and harvests were common. This Pokémon evolved to look enough like the stories people heard that those who had not seen it themselves were fooled into worshipping it, hoping it would bring rain. It revels in attention and praise and will swing its head around pompously to send its bell ringing loudly. It uses deceit to get what it wants without remorse.

———————

Very happy with these!! They’re based vaguely on the story of the golden calf, and follow the convergent evolution mechanic introduced in Scarlet and Violet. This means Rascalf is meant to vaguely resemble Bronzor with the orb-like horns, and Bovidol is meant to resemble Bronzong in overall patterns and (of course) mini bell. Honestly things worked out very well half by accident

I super recommend every artist to try doing fakemon.. they’re so much fun and trying to nail the sugimori style is a good challenge !!

The weather shifts around the palace when Bronzong rings the royal bells. They get along with the other staff members despite having little emotions.

Let's bring Holiday Cheer to Pokemon Unite!

So, I didn't realize that Christmas was literally right around the corner (Am writing this on Christmas Eve of all days) and I realized I've yet to make a poll about it and Pokemon Unite. Kind of fitting that I published Weavile for Pokemon Unite today as well.

So, let's celebrate the holidays by voting on which Festive Friend should join Pokemon Unite!

The poll is Christmas themed, if that isn't obvious enough, but some choices are not as clear as others. While Delibird, Abomasnow, and Wyrdeer are obvious choices for a holiday themed team, I feel like I need to explain the other options on the poll first before the post ends.

Bronzong represents the bell and the ringing in of the New Year, as you hear these sounds all the time in Christmas songs. Speaking of which, Altaria is on the poll as a singer for Christmas carols. I know there are other singer pokemon more popular that I could've put on the poll, but Altaria is also well dressed for the weather and resembles a snow cloud.

Arboliva represents the Christmas wreath and Ampharos represents the Christmas lights in the sky and the wires we decorate our houses with. It's also a sheep which means warm woolly clothes for all. Coalossal is supposed to be the burning hearth in the home (and NOT a big fat lump of coal in your stocking if you've been Naughty this year) whereas Grimmsnarl is supposed to be a sinister spirit like Krampus, or an elf, or even Mr. Scrooge if that's your fancy. Hum-bug!

And lastly, Jirachi represents the final piece of decor for a Christmas Tree. Normally it's either a star or an angel, but Jirachi is technically both if you think about it.

That's gonna be it from me for the rest of the year. If you voted for Delibird, Jynx, or Bronzong, I've made posts about them joining Pokemon Unite, so give those a read when you've got time.

Happy Holidays!

My new favorite psyche-type, brongzong was used in ancient pokemon rituals, you ring of it's bell would summon rain causing it to be worshiped as a deity of rain, bronzore, a mirror has dulled with age, with it's mirror side depicting a plant harkening to that, even in legends Arceus they are described to have been used by ancient people, makeing them unbelievably ancient, one of the dex entries describes a archeological spectacular that happened with the discovery of a bronzong that had been sleeping buried in the ground for 2000 years. Bronzore and bronzong are based off of a Japanese folk-lore, about priests who's temple didn't have a bell, so they melted down bronze mirrors to make one, but one of the mirrors was cursed and couldn't melt be melted, which is why they can have the ability heat proof.

I wish they got more love, they have really interesting lore and are pretty unique

[reealdifferent]

“— that’s a fine bronzong, pal! Looks to be — quite a mature one, too! Well polished, probably has a nice ring to him too, huh!”

now pokemon, they know. They might not know much else right now, but —

“You mind telling me more about this guy right here?”

@analuein liked for a starter!

🔨 Oi..she would have preferred to use this mallet on a certain idiot but alas she had a game to try to win

Trip was getting some really, really creepy vibes. Even his beloved conkeldurr was stepping back, leaving the man to be the one to present the mallet to the hex maniac. "Hey, welcome to the booth. Let's see you give her a swing." He muttered something about 'please avoid my foot'.

Luckily, Trip's foot was well out of the way of Izzy's swing, putting all of her force into sending the puck up. It slowed down just below the prize zone, dropping back down.

"Um. Sorry? Let-me-get-that-mallet-back-thanks!"

Almost there.

Nix grasps the piece of pale tile in their left hand and grips the compound nippers in their right with just enough pressure. A cracking sound and a small square falls, muffled, onto a folded towel.

They roll the piece in the towel, wiping off any excess debris before picking it up to look for hidden chips or cracks. Finding none, they turn and push it firmly into the adhesive.

Finished.

Nix leans back on their heels, dusting their hands on their heavy canvas apron. Flower, their Espurr, chirps and does a little spin before wiggling a nearby bowl of extra tiles. The way they click together feels celebratory. Ever the serious one, Bronzong gives a low ring of approval before returning to their pokeball. Nix smiles.

The mosaic is a near-exact replica of one that Cale and Nix had seen on their trip together in Galar. There were a great number of ruins to visit in the country; a favorite being a series portraying dog Pokemon.

They were always set in the entryways of homes and buildings. Guards, protectors. Cale had waxed poetic about the historical significance and mythic connections between dog type Pokémon for the better part of a day.

At the time they'd joked about having a matching mosaic of their own. In the years since, the topic had come up in passing several times. Unbeknownst to Cale, Nix was of a mind to make it reality. Not just reality, but a surprise.

This meant assembling the piece over the course of a single day when Cale was away on business. The scope of the project, both size and time frame, meant installing the majority of the piece telekinetically — with the assistance of Bronzong, Solrock, Lunatone and even Flower.

Nix prepared the pattern, the tools and materials weeks in advance. Still, it was a full day of work marking it out, cutting thousands of tiles and placing them piece-by-piece from the center to the border.

Project finished, Solrock spins triumphantly, flooding their mutual link with pride. Lunatone sings jovially as well.

A shaft of light peeks through the blinds, highlighting their hard work. He'll be home with Marinell soon, Nix can't wait for him to see it.

Happy New Year, Cale

Steel type?

Mawile: Love the big chompy head. And Mega Mawile has TWO of them! and purple pants Klefki: She's just a lil ring of keys! Baby! Zacian: Big buppy with a sword. Enough said Lucario: Another big buppy Bronzong: I had one on my SwSh team for a while and I really liked them Alolan Sandshrew: Just look at it.

(Really showing my ass here on what my favorite type is, lol)

[banezarian]

I love the idea of Tinkaton having a blacksmithing shop that specializes in custom pokemon weapons/armor forging/repairs. Just, imagining a Pawniard that's all bent outta shape walking in with some Poké coins to get its plate armor readjusted. Or if a Bronzong wasn't ringing correctly it'd help smooth out its battle-worn bell.

[Video ID: The Pit Crew walking through Mossui Town. Several afflicted villagers shamble around in the background.

"Ugh...Man, can whatever's causing this just show itself already?! I wanna beat the crap out of you and be done with this!" Teko growls from behind the camera.

Suddenly, a noise reminiscent of a young child's laughter can be heard echoing from somewhere.

"...That ain't good." Florian mutters.

"...Kekekeke...Chahahahaah! Oh, ain't 'dis a peach! I've been stuck in 'dis form for a long time now, see. Now that I'm all better...thanks for comin' to 'da one spot where I can conveniently destroy all of youse, nice and easy-like!" a voice says telepathically. Somehow, despite it speaking directly into everyone's brains, it has a thick and distinct Castelian accent, almost like something out of an old mobster movie: simultaneously, it sounds like a young boy, almost as if it's imitating said movies.

"...who said that?" Nemona says, looking around in confusion.

The Never-Rotting Peach on Peachy's stall convulses violently, before opening its shell as it floats up, revealing it, in a big display of cursed energy and purple smoke, to be none other than Pecharunt.

"Surprise! It's me! I'm sure YOU remember me, you obnoxious piece 'a work." the mysterious Pokemon says telepathically, pointing at Florian with its chains. "Koffing-K - TS!UNDERSWAP" can be heard playing from Teko's Rotom Phone.

"...do I...know you?" Florian says, confused, cocking his head to the side.

"W-wha...You know! I set up 'dat little scam with 'da Pecha Berry! My boys tricked you an' 'dat STUPID OGRE into powerin' me up, see?!" it continues.

"...Well, I guess that explains the whole Luigi's Mansion sweepstakes thing." Florian muses. "...But sorry, man, this ain't ringing any Bronzong up there." he says, shrugging.

"I...I tried to get my boys to steal ya stuff! With 'dat scrawny one! A-and 'da rest of youse!" Pecharunt says, flustered.

"Nah, dude, that was Okidogi. You're weird and this conversation is weird. I'm outta here." Florian says, turning to leave.

"Wha...You schmucks don't remember me at ALL?! I...Rrrgh...Well, HERE's somethin' to jog ya MEMORY, see!!" Pecharunt says indignantly.

Pecharunt opens its shell, summoning a bunch of dripping purple mochi, and telekinetically flings them into Cera and Nemona's mouths.

"Urgh...What IS this?! ...Actually, it's kinda good." Cera says through a full mouth.

"It kind of tastes like...U-URK! N-not...feeling so good..." Nemona groans.

Both of them double over and start clutching their heads in pain while being cloaked by cursed energy. Everyone except Cauler, Juliana and Florian start running around, panicking.

"Wh...What did you do to my friends, you freak?!" Florian yells, getting ready to fight.

"Eh? Oh, I ain't do nuthin to 'em. I just made 'em MY friends! ...Look! Here 'dey are now, see! Pechahaha...But I'm just warnin' youse...'dey might be a little DIFFERENT 'den what you schmucks are used to!!" Pecharunt cackles cruelly.

"M…mo...MOCHI?! MOCHI MOCHI MATCHII!!!!" Nemona roars, performing a strange dance.

"MOCHOHOHOHO!!" Cera laughs with her, also doing the dance. Both of their eyes are glowing purple, and they're continuously spewing a purple froth from their mouths as if they've gone rabid. Pecharunt hides behind them, using their bodies as shields.

"...Hold on, I got this!" Cauler says after some thought.

She dashes forwards, swiftly lifts Nemona up by the front of her shirt and punches her in the stomach, then does the same to Cera as well, even though she tries to shamble away. Both of them fall to their knees upon being dropped and vomit up a disproportionately large amount of purple ooze as their eyes go back to normal.

"Uuuuurgh...My gut feels like it got run over by a steamroller...What HAPPENED??" Cera groans as she comes to, wiping off her mouth.

"I punched you! In the STOMACH!!" Cauler says.

"Wha...Eh, well, it ain't 'da first time 'dis thing's been...imperfect." Pecharunt concedes, moving its chains in a shrugging motion. "But YOU...You's gonna be a BIG help in takin' down 'DIS overblown meanie, beefcake!" it says telepathically, pointing at Florian.

"...wait, is this whole thing just some kinda revenge scheme...?" Teko says, confused.

"C'mere, you!!" Pecharunt latches onto Cauler's head like a Facehugger, causing her to thrash around wildly trying to get it off.

"...Hey, you didn't look like either of those two did...Wait, so you WEREN'T possessed?!" Arven asks Kieran.

"Wh...People really thought I was possessed when I made a bunch of questionable life choices?" Kieran says, incredulous.

"Bruh, on top of being purple like this...thing, your hair looked like a bloody onion. Forget the complete 180 in personality, nobody sane would wear ANY hair style like that." Penny says.

"...Dude, he's right here." Florian says, exasperated.

"What? It DOES look like an onion, doesn't it??" Teko says defensively.

Eventually, Pecharunt manages to fling a piece of binding mochi down Cauler's throat, causing her to double over after choking on it, trying to spit it out.

"M...mo...chi..." Cauler mutters.

"NOOO!!" Cera yells from behind the camera.

"Chahaha...What'cha gonna do NOW without Beefcakes here protectin' ya, see?" Pecharunt giggles.

"Mo...chi...mo...chaw? N-no...mo....chAWW HAW HAW HAWW!!" Cauler cackles.

"...Huh? Wait, what 'da-" Pecharunt says.

"Gaw...chi...Heh...heh...You really...think that...THIS...is enough to stop me...?" Cauler says slowly, staggering around while dribbling the same purple foam from her mouth.

"Wha...She's IMMUNE to it? How?!" Teko says from behind the camera.

"Maybe she's just overriding IT with her own will!" Arven says.

"I dunno, but you better KEEP being immune to it, or we're all DEAD!" Cera yells.

Cauler, her hands shaking, then repeatedly punches herself in the stomach, overpowering Pecharunt and puking up the binding mochi like the other two.

"...Then...you're gonna...have to try...a little harder than that." she pants, standing up triumphantly. Her face is marked purple from where Pecharunt's shell touched it.

Everyone stands in awed silence for a brief moment.

"...Hey, you got a little something on your fa-" Arven whispers.

"...Oh, COME ON!! NO! NO NO NO!! 'Dis ain't how it's supposed to work at ALL!! You...You're CHEATIN', see?!" Pecharunt whines telepathically, flailing its chains around like a petulant child. "'Dat ain't supposed to happen!"

"Ha! Ahaha! Gaw haw haw haw!! You can't do anything with ME around, punk! Did you really think your stupid little mind control would be able to dim the light of JUSTICE?! Get outta here and leave these people alone!" Cauler laughs heartily.

"Well, obviously, I just need to up 'da DOSAGE!" Pecharunt yells telepathically, firing a massive amount of mochi into Cauler's mouth. She intentionally spits them back out onto Pecharunt's face in an act of defiance.

"How many times do I have to SAY IT?! YOU! CAN'T! BEAT! ME!! I've had ENOUGH of you messing with my friends, you BULLY!! Time for you to face JUSTICE!! GuuurrrrRRAAAAGH!!" Cauler roars. She charges at Pecharunt, but phases through it and falls flat on her face.

"RRRGH...Boo! Boo, I say! 'Dis is NOT 'da end, see? I WILL rip 'dat pasty interloper into shreds for Mama...one way or another!" Pecharunt growls. It sticks its chain in its mouth, making an eerie whistling noise, and Fezandipiti swoops out of nowhere and hoists it off.

Everyone pauses to process what just happened. Florian looks at his hands.

"...I'm not really THAT pasty, am I?" he says quietly.

"That was...weird. So that's the "curse" you were talking about?" Teko asks Kieran from behind the camera..

"Yeah, but...I think it's gone now? All's well that ends well, I guess?" Kieran says, unsure.

"Man, I can't believe that thing has beef with me...So if the Lousy Three ARE its flunkies, I guess THAT explains why we got robbed by them!" Florian says to Cera as the video cuts out.]

Highest Base Stat: Defense Special Defense:86

Lowest Base Stat: Speed:23

It appears in ancient ruins. The pattern on its body doesn't come from any culture in the Galar region, so it remains shrouded in mystery. Polishing Bronzor to a shine makes its surface reflect the truth, according to common lore. Be that as it may, Bronzor hates being polished.

At level 33 it evolves into Bronzong the Bronze Bell pokemon a steel and psychic type

412.3lbs

Ability: Levitate or Heatproof Hidden Ability: Heavy Metal

Some believe it to be a deity that summons rain clouds. When angered, it lets out a warning cry that rings out like the tolling of a bell. Many scientists suspect that this pokemon originated outside the Galar region, based on the patterns on its body.

[ferrunough]

passed by a former client who gave me permission to talk about their sessions from the get-go. i completely forgot they existed until now so while i still remember

pokémon was a bronzong called Brong. super bubbly thing, loved the rain. ‘d go zoom around in it when it could ‘n’ play with other pokémon if they let it get close. i didn’t have the studio then (even ‘f i did it wouldn’t’ve been viable for the huge bell) so we worked in a public park area an’ i have to keep an eye on the weather to keep i’s focus

base technique idea comes pretty quick, “Bell Tolls” as the person called it: Brong slams on top of the opponent, begins spinning, rises, eventually stops spinning really fast, opponent falls back into arena from a height. spinning creates a centrifuge kinda thing so opponent stays inside and usually causes Brong to ring. real satisfying to see it consistently work with a dummy. i thought i was welling up for a second. maybe with pride or glee my job was starting ’a work ou— never mind, just rain

…

soo the first time we tried it with an actual pokémon inside was with a poor fennekin who didn’t run from Brong because that would’ve meant goin’ into th rain. I know well they survived, dun’ worry, i had ta pay for medical bills

Brong seems to be doing good on street battles at least. ‘s definitely killed someone though
