Emmet you sweet summer child, you are the only reason I was smiling.

& some inspiring words from Ingo - we’ll be okay if we stick together & keep going.

Am I the only one who doesn't associate Zekrom with Ingo and Reshiram with Emmet but do it the other way around? Well, perhaps this will become an unpopular opinion, but, if you stop to think about it there are quite a few points that can support this theory. Let's check them out! To begin with, it's the legendary dragon Zekrom the one who appears on the cover of the White version of the game, while Reshiram does the same on the Black version, which would indicate that they actually represent their opposite color. Such small detail is already important in itself, not just the basic color of the dragons per se. Also we all know that Zekrom's associated element is the electric type, like Emmet's Eeleektros, while Reshiram's is the fire type, like Ingo's Chandelure, both being the most representative pokemons of the Subway Bosses.

Although the issue of ideologies of each dragon is used to link them with each brother among the fandom, "ideals" being the one typically attributed to Ingo for his passionate way of encouraging trainers, while for Emmet it is the "truth" for his direct way of communicating, this could work much better the other way around. If we have learned anything from Ingo on Pokemon Legends Arceus, it is that this man is full of existential doubts that lead him to want to get closer to the player in order to know more about himself. That's it, the truth about his origins. But he already had some tendency to this type of behavior long before, as it was evident in the first Black & White games.

"Where is my destination? I've kept thinking, and I've learned one thing. That is, you cannot know what happens after winning without winning." Through such questions, Ingo seeks to reach a real conclusion, his own truths. And perhaps in our idealized image of him we forget that he can also be frank and direct, without the need to embellish words with lies.

"However, it is difficult to win unless you and your partner are in total sync." On the other hand, and as we have said before, the frankness with which Emmet expresses his opinions makes him look like an open-minded character, sincere, making this seem (for many people) to be his only notable characteristic, despite the fact that it's kinda obvious the way in which he greatly idealizes Pokémon battles.

"This time, I am really serious. Really serious. Because if a battle is not serious, it is not fun." He firmly believes that there is a way to go about Pokémon battles, and that way is by giving it your all in them, and in an ideal world, everyone would have fun battling just as he does, but this is not always the case. Emmet clearly expresses how he believes things should be, and he's also aware that his own victory may not only be due to his skill but also to circumstantial elements or, put another way, luck. So he also idealizes the player's own defeat when it occurs, having enough consideration to make it seem like something unfourtunate. Further proof that the fandom has been associating the wrong dragon with the wrong twin can be found in the legend of the twin heroes, where it was the oldest who pursued the truth, while the youngest pursued the concept of ideals.

This birth order also corresponds to Ingo and Emmet, Ingo being the eldest of the both and Emmet the youngest.

That's why despite being white, I think Reshiram suits to Ingo much better and the same for Emmet regarding the black dragon Zekrom. All of these points put together carry much more sense than simply thinking that each dragon's ideologies relates to a brother just by the main color of his outfit. Although this, in the end, does not have much relevance either, since canonically there is no relationship between these legendary Pokémon and the Subway bosses, other than the simple fact of playing with mere chromatic issues. Still, it's always fun to speculate, right?

A WONDERFUL commission I got a bit ago by @pigdemonart of the twins from Always By Your Side gaming! I think Elesa is currently beating both of them, to tell you the truth XD

Thank you SO MUCH Piggu, I love this commission so much!

[kirin-shinra]

Subway bosses in their natural habitat

Finally the world is healing. Everything is back to normal 😭🙏

Am so proud with finding and winning this bag prize. I shall keep them in here. FOREVER HAHAHAHAHA (tho since this bag is a lil smaller its hard to use. Not much space left compared to my claw machine bag. And since the insides are deep, i have to put something under the plushies so their face fits into the window)

[mousetrappart]

Same hat? No. Same face!

Month of Emmet Day 5: FOREST🌳 (ITS SO COZY AND WARM IM GONNA CRY)

[subwaychuckle]

"All aboard!!"

I am not settled on how to draw their faces yet but I did want to finally post, so I drew them as something that I do know how to draw: mice. Those are little doodles, you can see them as halloween transformation (pun not intended..)

First time posting art here as stated above, so please be easy on me!!

Has anyone ever thought of the possibility of people in hisui getting a magazine from AFTER ingo and akari go home with either or both of them on it. Like they've already left and lo and behold in the tail end of the entire mess a magazine appears with one of them on the cover looking fresh stunning and most importantly happy. If it were Ingo i feel like he'd be all dressed up goth on the cover of like Vogue or something lmao (i don't think he wouldn't get famous if he wasn't already after coming home. Theyd want the publicity+cool extint Pokémon on the cover). If it were akari shed probably be like posing all badass like the badass teenager she is, scars in full view (she's a survivor!!!!!!). Inside is a little tidibit of their life after coming home. It would be both funny as hell to see them react to how they are in their element and like connect the dots for their strange behaviors AND bring closure to the people they left in hisui. They may never know this but the people in the past do

If anyone uses this idea tag me i may or may not read it but i want to know if you liked it enough to do something with it. I'll probably just keep daydreaming to myself about it lol

Edit: btw there's a whole section talking about everyone's battle prowess and the battle subway for the funnies. Just so you know

Today I have been visiting a ghost subway station museum in Madrid. Among other things, the guide explained to us the importance of the role which a "jefe de estación" or "jefe de metro" (aka subway boss) played. They were not only in charge of the control and operation of all the elements of the station but also represented an authority and trust figure in front of the passengers, also someone to turn to in any mishap (kinda like the captain of a ship).

Immediately I thought of Ingo and Emmet and everything that their profession entails, covering several fronts most of their time. Apart from facing Pokémon battles, their mere presence are essential for the proper functioning of a subway station.

Very proud of my very professional and capable boys! <3
