So I know that 99.9/100 Pokemon being used in competitive tournaments were bred specifically for competition, but what do these breeders/breeding facilities do with the Pokemon they breed that don't make the cut?

it really depends. some of these pokemon can be adopted out as pets or may succeed in another job, such as contests or practical work. good breeders will always make sure they can home all of a clutch, even if that means taking the pokemon in themself.

unfortunately, though, less reputable facilities or backyard breeders exist (you would not believe how many people think their pet pokemon totally has competitive potential and will throw champion babies). these pokemon often get abandoned, released, or dropped at shelters. they can be really hard to home. many of these pokemon have been bred for reactivity in the hopes that it'll make them good battling candidates, but in reality it just makes them extremely hard to handle. we try to give these pokemon to fosters who were previously battling trainers to see if they can work some training magic, but the sad truth is we do sometimes have to euthanize them. it's just not safe to adopt out something like a reactive skarmory.

IMPORTANT!  I seem to have an issue with messages and replies at the moment.  I can’t receive or send instant messages, and I can’t reply, but I can talk to you privately through Asks (though it seems not ALL asks are coming through), but I just made a side blog here just to get past the issue, lol.  Try sending a message here www.tumblr.com/absolutedreamsideblog  and if you see a message from this blog, it IS me. XD

I noticed a few people may have been interested in getting some of these guys as adoptables, so I decided to put them up for adoption if anyone is interested. ^^ All of them are $20 CAD EACH This is first come, first serve. --------------- RULES -  You may choose their gender, add accessories, or redesign them to your liking. -  Once you've paid for your character, I will send you a larger, unshaded version of the drawing. -  If you no longer wish to keep the character, you may sell them to someone who will use them for the same price here, unless you include character art on top of it. -  Credit would be appreciated for the first time you draw them, but it's not necessary afterwards. ^^ -  After I confirm that you own the adoptable, I will ask you to send me a note with your PayPal email, and I will send you an invoice. -  Please take care of them! :D ---------------- 1 - Mewtwo X Cubone - TAKEN by Tazerpones 2 - Mewtwo X Sentret - TAKEN by Mintbubbie on Deviantart 3 - Mewtwo X Kangaskhan - TAKEN by Manaketesilver 4 - Mewtwo X Ninetails - TAKEN by Nocturn02 on DeviantArt 5 - Mewtwo X Girafarig - TAKEN by Buggobop on DeviantArt 6 - Mewtwo X Cloyster - TAKEN by Anngalaxies on DeviantArt 7 - Mewtwo X Mega Aerodactyl - TAKEN by Paulrulz on DeviantArt 8 - Mewtwo X Dusknoir - TAKEN by Achillesmonocrome 9 - Mewtwo X Pupitar - TAKEN by Rixxthelarvitar on FA 10 - Mewtwo X Rowlet - TAKEN by Nocturn02 on DeviantArt 11 - Mewtwo X Shedinja - TAKEN by Demonichunny 12 - Mewtwo X Celebi - TAKEN by xhunterbeatsx 13 - Mewtwo X Mega Blaziken - TAKEN by Driftfall on Deviantart 14 - Mewtwo X Meganium - TAKEN by Dezzykitsune on FA 15 - Mewtwo X Treecko - TAKEN by Buggobop on DeviantArt 16 - Mewtwo X Zubat - TAKEN by Tazerpones 17 - Mewtwo X Noivern - TAKEN by Darkestphoenix 18 - Mewtwo X Skeledirge - TAKEN by Paulrulz on DeviantArt 19 - Mewtwo X Breloom - TAKEN by KxSombraxL on DeviantArt 20 - Mewtwo X Golett - TAKEN by Ghosttown1195 21 - Mewtwo X Skarmory - TAKEN by Paulrulz on DeviantArt 22 - Mewtwo X Rapidash - TAKEN by Ferngirl on DeviantArt 23 - Mewtwo X Dragalge - TAKEN by Displacedentities 24 - Mewtwo X Swoobat - TAKEN by Nocturn02 on DeviantArt

[wildmon-rehabilitation]

I've noticed recently that quite a few people are looking to adopt the zubats mentioned a while ago, so I figured I'd put together a little list of the zubats still available for adoption!

All of these zubats are still available and ready to be adopted at the time of this post.

Millie is two months old, her birthday is January 27th. Her temperament is naive and her ability is Inner Focus

Caspian is a month and a half old, his birthday is February 10th. His temperament is relaxed and his ability is Infiltrator.

Amory is two months old, his birthday is January 17th. He’s a zubat/skarmory hybrid. His temperament is brave and his ability is Sturdy.

Juniper is two months old, her birthday is January 12th. The temperament for her is modest and her ability is Inner Focus.

[would-this-pokemon-be-a-friend]

Looking at several previous one, I can already imagine that this one is not going to turn out well, but since it is my favorite I'm going to ask anyway.

How about Skarmory?

Skarmories are fascinating pokémon, but they might not make the greatest house pet unless you are an expert in the species. As I’m sure you understand, this makes it pretty difficult for me to give them a blanket endorsement, hence the C ranking. It’s a complicated one, so let’s get right into it.

For one thing, skarmories are pretty large. At over five feet tall, their space needs are gonna be higher than a lot of owners can handle. This is doubly true considering their aerial lifestyle: skarmories are skilled flyers and would likely become restless if prevented from flying freely. I’d go out on a limb and guess that very, very view readers of this blog have access to an enclosed space large enough to suit a skarmory’s need to take to the air. These pokémon can fly at dumbfounding speeds, topping off somewhere around 190 miles per hour (Ruby). Nothing short of a sports stadium, if that, would suffice. Of course, a trained skarmory could be allowed to explore freely and return home on command, but that would require a level of training that’s gonna really decrease their ease of care. You would also need to keep in mind that flying freely outdoors may present a risk to your skarmory or wild pokémon, depending on where you live. In the Galar Region, for example, skarmories are known to “fight viciously over territory” with corviknights (Sword). On a brighter note, these pokémon aren’t too heavy considering their size thanks to their light, hollow bones, a necessity to their flying capabilities (Gold).

Now, for the friendliness factor: there’s decent indication that skarmories may get along well with humans. Both in the past and today, humans use shed skarmory feathers as blades due to their natural strength and exceptional sharpness (Crystal, Emerald, Sun, Ultra Sun). Around the world, this pokémon is a popular heraldic symbol due to their role as a passive source for human weapons (Shield). While the pokédex makes no note of skarmories offering their feathers willingly to humans at any point, it also doesn’t indicate that collecting these feathers is particularly dangerous for humans, indicating to me at the very least a passive, nonviolent relationship between the species. As an added benefit, if you own a skarmory, you’ll have access to valuable blades year-round, which could be sold to support yourself and your pet.

Skarmories, unfortunately, have additionally habitat needs that increase the difficulty of their care. Wild skarmories, like most bird-like pokémon, make their homes in nests. Skarmory nests are built using bramble bushes, whose sharp thorns help skarmory chicks develop their defensive armor (Silver). Such a nest would be difficult to upkeep, to say the least. Not only would you need to provide your skarmory with sufficiently prickly branches to satisfy their nesting needs, you would need to make sure they have a perfectly dry place to build it (i.e. not anywhere where they may get rained on), since their metal feathers are known to rust very easily (Moon). All this to say: a standard pet bed would not cut it for a skarmory. If you’re planning on adopting one, you’d better look into some good bramble bushes.

I’m sure anyone who reads this could see it a mile away but my goodness are skarmories dangerous! Their razor-sharp feathers are sharper than most artificial blades (Sword), and they make skilled use of them in combat. Moves like Steel Wing, Slash, and even Wing Attack and Fury Attack could easily prove lethal to a human. Considering their speed and agility, a skarmory attack is not something you want to risk. Now, the pokédex doesn’t make any mention of the species being particularly aggressive, but we must always recognize that the risk of an accident are always present. A skarmory is essentially a giant bird of prey made of knives. Like, c’mon.

Unfortunately, this pokémon is not one I can comfortably recommend as a house pet. Skilled flying-type keepers may be able to care for them, but the average pet owner would simply be putting themselves and other people and pokémon in their neighborhood at risk by adopting one.

[gymleadergarnet]

My Introduction Post!!!

Hello, everyone! I'm Garnet Skyesor, 21 years old, and my dream is to become a Gym Leader in my home region of Hoenn! I'm . . . not entirely sure how to GET there yet, but I'm doing my best to figure it out!

Back when I was 13, I did the Gym Challenge here in Hoenn, and actually got all the badges! I never ended up going to the league, though . . . it just didn't work out. But I made a lot of friends along the way, who've stayed with me all these years!

My squad is:

Skipper the Swampert, my awesome starter. He's a pretty calm guy, but helped carry me hard.

Endeavor the Gardevoir, the absolute QUEEN. She will not hesitate to mess you up if you mess with my guys.

Linear the Linoone, I originally named him Ziz but then realized "wait that's kinda stupid" and he agreed so we changed it. He's pretty good at helping me navigate out in the wild!

Quartz the Sableye, she's a bit odd but pretty fun. I didn't use her much during the Gym Challenge, but she was still pretty helpful!

Tory the Torkoal and Elec the Manectric--these two are actually parents to the wonderful Tory Jr, also a Torkoal! Tory is a fairly calm and wise mother, while Elec is a fun-loving energetic father. Tory Jr is fairly stubborn but sweet, and likes to follow me around.

Grassel the Wynaut, named after my old Math Teacher. He (my teacher) really liked making puns, so I named this silly little lad in his honor.

Amy the Skarmory, my super-fast flyer and a pretty dependable messenger! She's pretty sharp, like her feathers, but also really silly.

Minos the (SHINY!) Tauros, who I found on a short trip to Kanto about a year after my gym run. He's surprisingly silly for a Tauros, but we all enjoy his company, and he likes to help give me rides when I need it.

Matcha the Sinistcha, a newcomer to the team who I adopted from @ghost-pokemon-appreciator. She's a lot of fun so far, and she sounds pretty interested in joining my Gym Team! I'm still getting to know her, though.

Neutron the Mimikyu, a little guy received from mystery gift via @ask-games-galore! He is adorable and I love him and he's dressed as a Plusle/Minun and he's so CUTE AAAAAAA!!!

Elise the Froslass, a very fine lady adopted from @the-daycare-pokecenter! She's very charming, and seems very excited to battle on my team.

Lola the Luvdisc, hatched from an egg from @pokenursery! She's a very happy little fish and deserves just as much love as her heart-shaped body conveys.

They're all silly guys, but I love them, and they all seem willing to help me figure out how to reach this dream of mine!

Out of Character:

Hello, everyone! Welcome to "Lily's friend Finn discovered and decided to join rotomblr so she followed suit", as well as "Lily decides to actually use her first playthrough of emerald for something".

My main is @boom-fanfic-a-latta, follows and likes will be from there.

(This is now my second time going down a tumblr roleplay rabbit hole, let's see if I end up accidentally creating a discord community out of it this time as well . . . update, I have at the very least created a circle of friends on discord via rotomblr, I'm pretty sure that counts!)

Please keep things SFW--while I'm not a minor, I'm still very averse to anything NSFW, and there ARE minor who interact with this blog.

Pelipper Mail and Mystery Gifts are ON!

Cody 'Night Angel' Walsh and his pokemon team - coming soon to a mall near you.

Corviknight - A dark knight pokemon for a dark pokemon. SOO goth it's crazy. Plus it's a really violent and territorial pokemon which tracks for Cody.

Doublade - I don't even have to say this. A pokemon that is not just one sword but two swords? This is just... obvious.

Dusknoir - A pokemon that steals souls feels right for the guy who sold his soul. Plus, it's possible that it's 'antenna' receives instructions from the spirit world which is a lot like Bazathrax, being a lackey and not the real deal.

Gogoat - So, this might be a stretch, but hear me out. Cody's familiar is a moped, and to ME motorcycle is to moped as Cyclizar is to Gogoat. The Gogoat line is the only other pokemon known as the mount pokemon. Plus the stubbornness of goats. Plus a hardheaded pokemon for a hardheaded goth.

Skarmory - It's feathers are often used as blades so this goes well with the sword guy vibes Cody has. PLUS Corviknight and Skarmory are always getting into fights in the wild. Cody WOULD have pokemon that hate each other. He should not have adopted both of them.

Zweilous - This pokemon literally works at hot topic as a manager too lol. Plus the heads are always fighting and that just strikes me as reminiscent of his whole quadruple blade diaster.

[nyarlathotep-thecrawlingchaos]

I want your thoughts on OP blorbos X Pokemon. What team? Would they vibe with a certain type? Which starter? (Can be normal starter or any Pokémon). Do they spoil their babies? How'd they meet?

Sidenote, would they like the Pokémon games??

No not my earliest ever hyperfixation no no no you musn't--

AAAAGH I CANNOT

I'M

I have O P I N I O N S

Sanji's getting a water type. I associate him with water, do not ask why, I just do. I'm leaning heavily toward Marill. Chunky lil guy that would be perfectly happy hanging out in the kitchen, can even assist with the dreaded task of dishwashing, they are perfect together.

Zoro gets a Snorlax. I don't think I need to elaborate, but I'll offer two words: sleepy powerhouses.

Shanks has a Growlithe. He identifies heavily with his flamey lil puppy and it is his absolute best friend in the entire world. The ship is in imminent danger of catching fire.

Benn Beckman has a Poliwrath. It both helps assist in keeping his dippy captain in line, as well as putting out all the fires that him and Growlithe keep "accidentally" setting.

Mihawk is getting a Skarmory. A mfing bird made of swords? How could he not??

Sir Crocodile gets Meowth. Not a Meowth, but the Meowth. Team Rocket's Meowth. Because he reminds me of Giovani and I will not be accepting critique on this opinion. That's his shrewd lil business partner guy and he is spoiled rotten and never ever taken for granted again.

Buggy why is that Mr. Mime following you around and immitating you this is getting a little disturbing--

Bogard has a Houndour that he's trained to attack Garp's ankles whenever he's being too...you know. Too Garpy.

Cora-san has been adopted by a nurse-assistant Chansey previously employed at a PokeCenter, who was particularly concerned about his clumsiness and potential for constantly injuring himself.

Doflamingo gets a fckin Lvl 1 Magicarp. I'm still mad at him about Cora. Like maybe by the time it's a Gyarados I'll be over it, but it's going to take a LONG TIME.

I'm short circuiting on who would like the Pokemon games because I cannot understand people who do not like the Pokemon games, that was half my entire childhood. I may need to come back to the rest of this at a later date.

*rubs hands* time to drop some random world building lore!

The reason why the Gingko Guild has a branch in Hoenn is because Ginter and Occo used to be quite close friends back when they were young adults (they are still in good terms). Back when Ginter was a lone traveler and ended up in Hoenn a young Occo, soon to be leader of the Hoenn aviator corps, would immediately approach him, so they became friends (after initially teasing the hell out of each other).

Occo always had a love for bird Pokémon, but he was also very reckless, and one day he foolishly got too close to a storm of wild Skarmorys, that immediately attacked him. Ginter comes to the rescue and saves Occo, that since then he feels like he owes him a favor, thus offered to help with Ginter’s business and founded the Ginkgo Hoenn branches, that also integrated Occo’s original profession of the aviator.

The now old men discussing about their shady adoptive sons.. :’)

Occo: SWABLU SWEETHEART, NOOOO!!

Ginter: Oh, shit.. :|

Occo: Oh.. You saved me.. I owe you my life!

Ginter: Yea, you shut the fuck up now.

Getting their design down (first row is their aviator attire, the second one their Ginkgo outfits) The Hoenn merchants actually keep some elements from the aviator profession in their looks, so you can tell them apart from an Hisuian merchant.

Occo: I’ve been through quite some troubles to get this. It’s a one time cuss pass, use it wisely.

Emmet: Oh, I absolutely will! Thank you! :’>)

Swablu’s dex entry says it likes to land on people’s heads and act like a hat, so I like to think that’s how Occo first met his Swablu.. :’)

[pokemonshelterstories]

Hello! I'm looking into adopting a Wattrel soon - I've lived in Levincia for a few years now and have always loved seeing them waddle around the beach, and now I'm finally ready to get one of my own! The one thing I was worried about was how well they get along with other bird Pokemon - I live with my dad, and he owns an elderly, very cantankerous Swellow who hates everyone who isn't my dad, my uncles, and my grandma. I know Kilowattrel can be territorial, but I don't know how much that extends to Wattrel, so I'm worried about my future little guy accidentally doing something to set off Boeing (that's my dad's Swellow's nickname) and getting beaked as a result. How likely is this to be the case, and do you have any tips to make adjustment easier for both my future Wattrel and for Boeing?

unfortunately, i can't really recommend keeping a wattrel and a swellow in the same household, especially when the swellow is already not very personable.

swellow are bold, territorial pokemon that will take on pokemon much larger than them- much less a tiny wattrel. even taillow are known to try to fight off skarmory! add in that wattrel are electric type (automatically making them trigger a threat response) and also small birds, which swellow sometimes prey upon. all around this is asking for a stressed swellow and a potentially injured wattrel. outside of a well-managed battle team, i wouldn't raise these pokemon together. it'd be better to let the old swellow live out his years before taking in your wattrel.

[melonthesprigatito]

Had a fever dream last night that I thought was wildly entertaining. I can not for the life of me explain why I was so invested in it, but it was one of those dreams that I remember a lot of details of because it happened right before I woke up in the morning.

So, in the dream, it starts on a beach, yeah? Some big ass Pokéball has fallen from the sky. And I do mean BIGASS. You know that Basketball 2 Tumblr post?

It was like that but a bit bigger. So the military shows up with a few tanks and a bulldozer because this big thing fell from the sky onto a beach so OBVIOUSLY it must be a space craft or something and it needs to be moved. For tourism reasons.

Somebody objects to this because what if moving the big round space thing does something dangerous? And the general just laughs at him and the soldiers all point and laugh like they're characters in a freaking preschoolers show.

The general says, and I quote "What, it's not like it's going to unleash some giant terrifying monster!"

The bulldozer rolls the Pokéball over onto it's button and unleashes some giant terrifying monster.

It's a Flareon. A 60 foot tall Kaiju Flareon because it came out of a huge Pokéball. I believe my brain picked Flareon because I found my Comfy Friends plushie to hug yesterday because I'm currently going through a double whammy of a migraine and a cold.

Apparently nobody in this world knows what a Pokémon is so the army screams like little girls and opens fire. The Flareon gets really sad and scared because miscellaneous missiles and stuff being hurled at you hurts a lot so it runs off into the city and the army's like FUCK FUCK FUCK

Cue your average Kaiju movie scene, people running and screaming etc etc etc. Except Kaiju Flareon isn't malicious, it's just looking around at everything like :OOOO and :3. A dog starts barking at it and the Flareon mistakes this for play time and starts wagging it's tail and going "Arf arf arf :3" too, which scares the dog off and makes Flareon sad again.

Now there's a crowd of people standing around because the giant monster just exhibited suspiciously dog like behaviour and so far hasn't tried to hurt or eat anyone???? The only real damage so far is a couple of cars because it used them as chew toys and spat them out because they got oil in its mouth.

Flareon notices this crowd of people and is very excited because it reeeeeeally wants belly rubs. So it rolls onto it's back with it's legs dangling in the air, expecting belly rubs.

Nobody wants to go anywhere near it and Flareon gets ABSOLUTELY HEARTBROKEN, like, it specifically asked for belly rubs, why are none of these tiny Trainers giving it belly rubs??? 🥺 Did it do something bad????? 🥺🥺 Is she a bad Pokémon?????? 🥺🥺🥺🥺

I drew a diagram of this part because I just need to convey how absolutely sad this Flareon looked.

So one Brave or Stupid™ guy breaks out of the crowd like "I want to pet the giant monster" and people start trying to hold him back like NO DON'T PET THE GIANT MONSTER and the guy's like

So he stacks a bunch of random objects to make a staircase ala Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom to get up onto the Flareon and gives her the belly rubs. Flareon flips over onto her belly and accidentally squishes the dude but he is miraculously unharmed, and the entire crowd is like "Hey, this monster is basically a giant puppy!" and gives Flareon LOTS of head pats and now everybody is best friends. The military shows up again and people start yelling at them and calling them assholes for trying to hurt the big Flareon and so the military just... Goes home I guess???

So basically the whole Kaiju situation is resolved because the Public™ went "Big doggy :)" and basically adopted the Flareon as a city mascot and named it Big Floof. There's basically a montage of antics like Big Floof chasing a giant beach ball around at the seaside, getting escorted places by fire trucks, getting a huge dog bowl custom made for it etc etc etc

Then a fucking KAIJU SKARMORY maybe four times the Kaiju Flareon's size shows up out of the blue, and I anticipated a big battle because clearly Flareon has a type advantage and would want to defend its new home but my brain went "Nah".

What happened was that the military showed up again and the general yelled at the Kaiju Skarmory on a megaphone like "I'M CALLING YOUR MOTHER!" and unfortunately that's when I woke up and I was annoyed at that because I really want to find out how that would have went.

Who is this Skarmory's mother? Why would that threat work on a rampaging Kaiju? Would an even bigger Kaiju Skarmory have shown up like, idk, Cloverfield? I have so many questions.

Anyway I would have wanted to give the big fluffy doggy head pats as well
