#roark pokemon

[terracotta7]

Remembering how hard I laughed at Brilliant Diamond when I had to go get Roark out of the mine and he just fucking nyoomed out of there.

In DPPt, he just kinda walked out like "lol ok"

In BDSP he fucking books it

And here's the gif version

WHY ARE YOU RUNNING?

[dreamingpichu]

I would like to present to everyone...

The Clayspiracy.

Aka the biggest family tree conspiracy theory in the Pokémon fandom, all curated by moi.

The centerpiece of this theory is of course as the name implies gym leader Clay of the Unova region.

The goal? To decipher the family tree and further beyond.

As we know this begins with Lian, a warden of the Pearl Clan in Hisui and obvious ancestor to Clay.

However... Have we ever considered that maybe Lian has another descendant? My proposal, is Gym Leader Byron of the Sinnoh region.

Of course then if Byron is related to Clay (which I'd say they're brothers) then that would mean his son Roark is also part of this family tree.

With Roark canonically being Byron's son, then that would mean that if Byron is in fact Clay's brother, then Roark would have a cousin. That being Clay's canonical daughter, Lacey.

Now this has been under contention for a while...who is Lacey's mother? If you've been on my blog for a while you might be familiar with who I think it is. I believe that Lacey's mother is Gym Leader Tulip of the Paldea region.

Now of course, what would Tulip be doing all the way in the Paldea region away from her family? What if...there was another child? What if she and Clay were divorced? Divorce is a common reason for children to be bullied in school...

We know Ortega has an unnamed mother, and that his family owns an apparel company. Tulip is a model, and seems rather busy, like she's making a lot of money...

Now by now I'm sure that you're assuming I'm finished. However there's one last piece in this puzzle. One more character...a character with an unnamed father, mother, sister, and brother...

Yancy/Nancy!

So now, let's go over everything in a more fanfic-y description. Clay is the descendant of Lian, and is the brother of Byron, and uncle to Roark. At one point he moved away from Sinnoh to Unova, where he married Tulip and had three kids, Yancy, Ortega, and Lacey. Yancy would become the TV personality Nancy. Eventually, Clay and Tulip got a divorce, and Tulip left for Paldea taking Ortega with her, where he would be bullied for having divorced parents and thus join Team Star. Meanwhile, Lacey would start attending Blueberry Academy.

And that's finally the end of it. Dropping the MatPat act, honestly do I really believe this? I mean, I don't think it's canon, but it's a cute headcanon. And obviously there's some small details that while not disproving anything do make things muddy. Like, Yancy's brother is said to own a Leavanny, and when she's on her show as Nancy, her interview with Clay doesn't read like someone talking with their father (though that could also just be viewed as just being professional for the sake of television).

Overall, don't take my words as gospel, and just have fun.

Hi! Can you do a Fluff Story with my Oc, Zoe? Im thinking of one where Zoe and Roark were in the Underground (They’re having one of those Underground Exploring Dates-), When Zoe ends up finding a Skull fossil And restores it, adding it to her team?

(Also her team is Mostly her Luxray, Nyx, Her Aggron, Polaris, Her Flygon, Quicksand and Her Bastiodon, Don-)

OFC I CAN!! Your OC's team sounds so cool!

BTW I didn't know if Roark of your OC Zoe or together, so I'm just putting best friend/ love of his/her life just in case!! (But I'm assuming their together because you out the word date)

Writing below!!

-------------------

Zoe and Roark had been together for a while, and in that while, Zoe had taken notice to her best friends/boyfriends, Roarks, love for rocks, fossils, or anything related to the underground It wasn't hard to miss that Roark was a fan of anything related to rocks. So, Zoe had thought about what she could do with this information and eventually decided to ask Roark to take her to the oreburgh mines, to have something similar to a date. Roark agreed, of course. How could he not? Going on a date in the mines where he works with his best friend/love of his life? It's almost impossible for him to say no.

Currently, Zoe and Roark are in the mines together, with their helmets on and the light of the helmet shining down upon the dusty stones and their pickaxes in hand, crashing the sharp metal of it against the rock, making clanking sounds that echo throughout what seems never ending tunnels. But Zoe didn't need to worry about getting lost because Roark knew his around these tunnels.

Roark had already finished mining, so he had told Zoe that he was going to mine in a different section, not to far away from where Zoe was mining, in the hopes of finding fossils or stones. Either way, he'll be happy. Zoe agreed, before she continued mining.

"I can't lie. This is hard work. Makes me wonder how Roark does it all."

Zoe thinks to herself as she continues to mine before letting out a tired breath and leaning back against the dusty wall of the tunnel behind her, her hand on her forehead. She had closed her eyes for a few seconds, trying to relax before she got back to mining away. But before she could close her eyes completely, something had a sparkle underneath the light of her helmet that had caught her attention. She glanced over at where that light was shining and saw something underneath the dirt that she was just mining at. She slowly lifted herself from off the wall and stood in front of it, her pickaxe in hand before hitting at it, the sounds of metal hitting something stone like, trying to recover whatever was beneath the dust.

After minutes of attacking the stone like thing, enough of the dirt had come off to recover it and pull whatever was in there and out. She reached her gloved hand out and tugged at stone, pulling it out of the well dug hole she made. She examined it, turning it left in and right, up and done, before a certain part of it had caught her attention. This wasn't a stone. This was fossil!

"No way! My first skull fossil!"

Zoe cheered as she quickly sat up, carefully holding the fossil in her hand, slightly worried about dropping it before looking around in the hopes of finding Roark. She rested her pickaxe on the ground before speed walking down the tunnel, eventually seeing the light of Roarks helmet illuminate the area it was hovering over.

"Roark! Roark!"

Zoe calls out to him, catching his attention as he pauses what he had been doing before turning to face her, one of his eyebrows arched in curiosity.

"What's wrong?"

He asks, tilting his head to the side subtly as Zoe holds out the skull fossil to him, catching him by surprise before he smiles.

"You got yourself a skull fossil, huh? Good find!"

He tells her as she nods before smiling widely

"This means I can restore it and get a cranidos of my own!"

Zoe says as she looks down at the skull fossil in her hands, admiring its dusty and fragile features before Roark replies.

"Good idea. After we get out of here, I can take you over to the lab to get it restored, yeah?"

He asks as Zoe nods before he goes back to mining as Zoe watches, counting down the seconds of how much longer she has rill she can get a Cranidos of her own. Eventually, time passes by, and Roark finishes up, and so does Zoe. They pick up their equipment and dust themselves off lightly before heading out of the dimly lit tunnels and make their way to the science lab bear by to get Zoe's find restored.

After a few minutes of walking beside each other and talking about the skull fossil and it's history, they arrive at the lab before stepping in. After talking with a scientist(s) about Zoe's find, they agreed to restore it and make it come back to life and its original state, a Cranidos.

After what feels like hours, which probably was hours passed by of waiting and talking, making the restoration of Zoe's soon to be Cranidos finished. The scientists that were in charge of the restoration had taken Cranidos out caught it in a pokéball, just in case it what try and cause harm in a way or another before making their way to Zoe and hanging her the pokéball containing the restored fossil.

Zoe looked down at the pokéball, excited about the Ceanidos she now has before she looks at the scientists.

"Thanks again for your help!"

She thanks before turning and facing Roark, with the pokéball in hand with a big smile on her face.

"I can't believe it! I now have a Cranidos of my own!"

She tells him, barely able to keep still where she's standing as Roark stands there and chuckles lightly, glsd that his best friend/lover his proud of what they had found.

-------------------

IM SOSO SORRY IF THIS DOESNT MATCH YOUR OC!! 😭 And sorry if it isn't the best, I haven't written in a while. So, there are more than likely spelling mistakes or errors. Other than that, I enjoyed this!

Roark hc... He lost his leg as a child so he uses an above the knee prosthetic

[terracotta7]

I saw a Bugsy yippee the other day and you know good and damn well I had to make one of Roark lmao

Yippieeeeeeee

[destinywillowleaf]

so i had Some Thoughts like... a month or go at this point, i think, it's just taken time to work on Other Things and also sit down to do this

but i think it'd be fun if there was like. a pirate special costume event. specifically with day one characters that haven't gotten any additional sync partners yet because they deserve it.

obviously roark was going to be here because i am Predictable, so... pirate roark and his partner archeops! everyone thinks he's partnered with chatot since that's the perfect companion for a pirate, but Tot is more of a pet than a battle buddy (i can and will elaborate if asked). Puppy on the other hand is very much a dino who likes to battle when given the chance.

i have no idea what his EX colors would be considering he's already running with a shiny and chatot's colors also really aren't all that different. maybe moving closer to the actual shiny coloration??? i just didn't want them to blend together too much in the dino hug :/
