The Roaring Trainers PC Design + Rambles about them because I can

C1

So it’s all 1920s fashion for the setting obviously, Atticus had to be full farmer boy vibes obviously and his hair needed to be messy and unkept with an overall red ish color scheme. Eyes are friendly and a warm brown. Hairy. Sen is forever baby face in my mind even though he’s like 18 I think, big pokemon protag energy. Also newspaper boy and canon curly hair, but I wanted him to be a little tan with freckles, big blue eyes, and overall blue color palette. Watery puppy dog eyes vibes. Wesley my beloved. He’s my favorite to draw, fancy rich vibe clothes. And purple color palette all the way, he has such ghost type energy he needs to be purple and none of these pcs have canon design but he is a black man in my mind and I have always drawn him as such. He might have glasses in canon but I don’t remember, I do remember him needing to have tired phd student vibes.

C2

The 1920s fashion continue. Stella reminds me so much of Lilly from Sun and Moon if she was goth and I wanted to lean into that. Big modesty dress, hat, long hair, twin braids lots of purple. Livinia the diva needed to be in a flapper dress, there was no other choice. Dark reds were required to, just full on very elegant and sleek and in the fashion of the time. Mynt is the most off of the fashion, not by much but I thought it fit. Long hair, taller and chill.

C3

This was both the hardest and the easiest one to do because they had canon designs but I also haven’t listened to this season. Debbie I knew was a roller derby girl but still seemed more on the modest side so I wanted pinks greens and also inspired by @lunarspaceartist cause I loved her design of Debbie. Chickenbone I just gave more metal 80s accessories for fun. His tattoo was a nightmare lmao. Mikhal was fun cause he reminded me of actual casual punk people I know irl, also pink mullet pink mullet pink mullet

Anyway thanks for coming to my ted talk

Considerably less cohesive than the first but still cool

[lunarspaceartist]

Hi here’s more art from Arc 4 of The Roaring Trainers (including a little treat of Irene and Vexa going on that aquarium date). I really hope y’all enjoyed my time on the show as a guest!! It meant the world to me to bring my chaos gremlin to this podcast and that so many of you loved her. Until next time! (And hey maybe if you keep asking them, they might let me be a guest on the show again LMAO)

𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮 | 𝑷𝒂𝒓𝒕 𝑶𝒏𝒆.

⤷ gender neutral, Valyrian blood (dragon rider), and any size reader. Requests are open, thank you for reading!

a/n: I was inspired by @reiignonme, and I just HAD to do this. I'm so excited to write it. Also, I do know that dragons are aggressive creatures, but to their bonded rider, they're different.

ᴹᵃˢᵗᵉʳˡᶤˢᵗ | ᴹᵃˢᵗᵉʳˡᶤˢᵗ ᴵᴵ

𝐁𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐎𝐍:

・The God of Dragons, is what his title should have been

・But to you, he wasn't the intimidating beast that everyone saw him as.

・To you he was a work of art, a creation so wonderous that your breath hitched whenever you saw him.

・You show your love to him by laying beside him, treating him with respect and dignity.

・You hate leaving him on his own, but you allow him his independence.

・Never in a million years would you put him in the Dragonpit, chained and waiting for you.

・And in turn, he shows you his love by fiercely protecting you. He will fly you anywhere, and calls whenever he's beckoned.

・Only obedient to you, he doesn't listen to anyone else but you. However, it's almost as if he's level-headed and can be reasoned with.

・The other dragons fall in line and let him lead - which means you're the leader as well.

・His roar is earth-shakingly loud. And it can be heard from miles away.

・All of your subjects bow to you, knowing your power.

・Because we know, that a dragonrider has the same traits as their dragon.

𝐌𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐗𝐄𝐒:

・Is quite the adventurous dragon; she isn't one to be paraded around like Silverwing or Dreamfyre. She rather dislikes large crowds, preferring mountainsides and flying over oceans. She doesn't like small spaces either.

・Bonding with Meraxes was like bonding with a Border Collie - always has energy and curiosity

・But unlike Quicksilver, Meraxes is less energetic in a comic sense. She's more mature; more battle-worn.

・Will protect you unrelentingly.

・Hates sudden loud noises

・But loves hearing how much you love her and how much of a good job she's done

・Her teeth are smaller than the other dragons, but more pointed/sharp and there's more of them

・Her roar is also more high pitch and of a scream

・Meraxes' scales are pearlescent and seem to move in the sunlight

・Not many people know that, because she doesn't like being approached by others.

・That's why she isn't kept in the dragonpit.

・But she isn't as aggressive as Vermithor or the Cannibal

・You can tell that she wants a mate though, and often tries to woo Balerion - but he wants none of it.

𝐕𝐇𝐀𝐆𝐀𝐑:

・She shows her love by waiting for you to sit on her saddle before taking off.

・You have to shout out the command to fly and then, she takes off.

・You have a very special bond with Vhagar, which clicked into place because you would spend more time looking after her than making her fly.

・For example, talking to her, brushing/washing her, stroking her face.

・For those who don't think dragons understand - you're wrong because they really do. That's why some riders have a bigger bond than others.

・Some just see their dragon as an animal, as a beast. But those that see them as apart of them, that's when the true bond clicks into place.

・And you knew that being pampered is everyone's dream - or just being doted upon. So, because you put in the hours for her, she does the same for you.

・She obeys your commands without question, because she trusts you.

・But she doesn't like anyone else touching her, in fact there's a few trainers with burnt hands because of Vhagar.

・She loves laying in the sun, and will fly you to a beach to lay in the sand. Often you're chastised by your family for bringing sand into the castle.

𝐐𝐔𝐈𝐂𝐊𝐒𝐈𝐋𝐕𝐄𝐑:

・LOVES TO FLY

・She's the type of dragon to be like, "let's go faster! let's go faaaaasteeeer!"

・Isn't as aggressive as others, but would rather be away from people if able.

・Hates being paraded around

・But will do it if persuaded with food and belly rubs (although most dragons don't like to expose their stomachs as it is one of their most vulnerable body parts)

・When you introduce her to a friend or acquaintance, she does a big roar and then huffs a laugh at the person's scared response

・One of the more docile dragons like Silverwing

・Has similar colouring to Meraxes, but unlike her, Quicksilver is smaller but nimbler.

・One of the fastest

・Can beat anyone in a race

・And she LOVES to race

・Has to be ridden everyday otherwise she goes hyperactive and will lash out at the trainers

・Once when you were bedridden for a week, she flicked a whole group of trainers with her tail and then let out the biggest flame she had ever expelled.

・Tail flick = I'm irritated, Roar = I'm hungry or is trying to scare someone for a laugh, Fire = she is actually angry, Baring her teeth = scared

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐍𝐈𝐁𝐀𝐋:

・No one is allowed to approach him, hell no one is allowed to look at him.

・He's an incredibly aggressive and temperamental dragon. One that hates everyone but you.

・Completely black, he's known for eating other dragons - which makes him an outsider. No dragon, no matter how mighty, doesn't feel safe around him

・Even Balerion keeps his distance

・You weren't sure whether to keep his name or not, since you did have an emotional connection with him.

・But you guessed that he like being intimidating

・You have to feed him yourself or he will go hunting for dragons or sheep. Hasn't actually eaten a person, but has killed many.

・As he's your bonded dragon, people are a lot more intimidated by you. Since dragons and riders have somewhat similar traits.

・Although he does like showing you his den. He looks at you like, 'it's nice, isn't it. Did you see the bones I placed at the front? Yeah...it's to scare people off...'

・You see him differently than others see him. You aren't afraid of him. It's how you were able to bond with him in the first place.

・There was something in his eye that you thought was vulnerability, rather than hostility.

𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐌𝐈𝐓𝐇𝐎𝐑:

・His favourite form of physical touch is being scratched, like, really really scratched.

・Vermithor's back leg will wobble in absolute delight

・Especially when you get to those places where he cannot reach himself

・Doesn't like anyone but you doing it (or anyone but you being in the room when you do it)

・He's a very private & grumpy boi. Doesn't like being woken too early either. And likes to have an afternoon nap.

・And an angry/aggressive one too. He doesn't like being woken up early, and once you had to dodge out of his firing line. When he realised it was you, he made a really long upset face (that only you and his only other rider, Jaehaerys has seen)

・But he's incredibly loyal, and would die for you.

・What's important to you, is important to him (unless it's before 8am)

・Can sense when you're overwhelmed and will let out a huge roar so no one comes near

・Likes when you fall asleep with him. He may like his solitude, but he doesn't mind company (it depends on the company)

・Actually likes doing royal processions because he gets to show off how big and scary he is. He knows it's too remind the people of whose in charge.

𝐒𝐈𝐋𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐖𝐈𝐍𝐆:

・The least aggressive out of all the dragons (but that doesn't make her a formidable foe.)

・It's almost as if Silverwing understands that dragons keep people in line, but an approachable dragon keeps the respect and admiration of the people

・If she's patient and sociable with others, then you know damn well she has all the love, patience and affection for you.

・She shows her affection by nuzzling into your open palm, her eyes closed and you swear her lips are in the shape of a smile

・Wherever you are - standing alone, or in a crowd etc., she has her body wrapped around you; shielding you.

・And when you're alone together, she'll lay down and let you rest with her, and/or on her. Then, she'll fully wrap around you to help you warm up.

・She absolutely loves spending time with you. Funnily enough, she's a very outgoing dragon.

・She won't let you come into any harm though. Either because she herself has placated the people who could hurt you (the common people) by interacting with them calmly and gently.

・And if anyone tries to hurt you, she's the first to react. Although her temperament seems calm, she is highly protective of you and will burn someone to ash if they try to hurt you.

・When you're in King's Landing and the King demands that Silverwing be put in the Dragonpits, you sneak down to sleep with her. You have a very tight bond.

・Otherwise, she takes you somewhere else to sleep; amongst the grass, so you can fall asleep underneath the stars.

Saturn is the strict teacher of life, handing out lessons in discipline, responsibility, and growth. Are you paying attention, or are you too busy daydreaming about that escape plan?This can help navigating the challenges associated with Saturn in their signs while enhancing their strengths

჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻჻

Restorative & Refreshment through 12 signs :

Saturn in Aries - impulsive decisions Don't try to sprint a marathon, train. Great ideas but patience is always the key. Think before you leap, or you might just leap right into a pile of regret

Saturn in Taurus

"When Saturn is in Taurus, it’s like your financial advisor suddenly becomes your strict gym coach. No more late-night infomercial temptations for get-rich-quick schemes! Instead, it’s all about the slow and steady grind—because who knew that building wealth was more about sweat than shortcuts?"

Saturn in Gemini - communication or misunderstanding Especially if you don’t want your friends thinking you’re planning a surprise party when you’re really just trying to order pizza. Mastering the art of clear expression is essential, or you might end up with anchovies when you really wanted extra cheese

Saturn in Cancer - emotional maturity 'How to Not Cry at Work' - Learning to manage your feelings is crucial, especially when your boss asks for that report you forgot about—again

Saturn in Leo - earning respect Don't demand it like a toddler, no more flashy displays of confidence - roll up your sleeves and show what you’re made of. Authenticity is the name of the game, because no one respects a lion that roars but never hunts.

Saturn in Virgo - every detail matters perfectionism is your middle name being the editor of your own life’s novel, but even the best writers have to hit delete sometimes, be precise but be decisive

Saturn in Libra - finesse and balance your relationship remember the game of Jenga? one wrong move and everything could come crashing down. Don’t be the one who pulls the wrong block and ends up with a dramatic scene.

Saturn in Scorpio - inner strength and resilience hire a personal trainer for your fears, time to confront those insecurities You’ve got to face the villain within before you can wear that cape of empowerment

Saturn in Sagittarius - discipline it’s great to dream big, but don’t forget to pack a lunch for the trip! while philosophical pursuits are fun, discipline is the real MVP! balance your lofty ideals with some good practicality

Saturn in Capricorn - ultimate workaholic’s dream work hard, then work even harder No complaining. It’s all about that no-nonsense attitude. Just remember, even the most dedicated goats need a break, don’t forget to schedule some ‘me time’ between those ambitious goals

Saturn in Aquarius - thinking ahead think like having a blueprint on your hand - This placement encourages you to build for the future, not just chase after shiny, immediate gains. So, put on those innovative thinking caps and start planning for a sustainable tomorrow—because the future won’t build itself!"

Saturn in Pisces - spiritual discipline time to confront reality instead of escaping into daydreams -this warns against the allure of escapism, urging you to develop a strong spiritual foundation. Grab your inner compass and navigate those life challenges - because daydreaming won’t pay the bills. (now Saturn transits to Pisces! Hold on tight everyone!)

Torterra Facts

(Art by kouseki on Danbooru)

-The scientific name for Torterra is "Terrada Firma" which roughly translates to "Steadfast Land"

-Torterra are Testudines with their closest relatives being Blaistoise. They are both descendants of Caracosta

-Torterra are pokemon where both parents stay to raise their young. They often lay 5-10 Turtwig eggs at a time. Once hatched, they'll carry the young Turtwig around on their shells

-While most people are familiar with the standard/starter breed, which only has 1 tree, there are actually many different breeds of Torterra which can have different plants. My favorite breeds are the ones the resemble gardens

-A group of Torterra can be called either a forest or a garden

-They do very well with kids due to their patience, protective nature, and ability to empathize with others

-Torterra are very protective pokemon and have been known to adopt other pokemon, even if they're not the same species! They're also known to let other smaller pokemon live on their backs, and they go out of their way to defend defenseless pokemon. Because of their gentle, protective, and caring nature, many people use them as a way to help younger kids get used to larger and more scarier looking pokemon

-For centuries, Torterra's shell has inspired a lot of armor in Sinnoh

-Torterra are the only starter pokemon that are expected to live 100+ years, with some Torterra living up to 250 years! It's important for trainers to have a plan for their Torterra when they die

-Like Aggron, Torterra are known for purposely planting and gardening. Researchers aren't sure why, as they don't need to food. It could be that they are planting for other pokemon or that they just find the flowers pretty

-While Turtwig can swim, Grotle and Torterra cannot. Torterra can still hold their breath for a long time, and will sit at the bottom of small ponds to nap once in a while

-As Torterra age, their trees will fall, and their leaves will turn brown. By the time they fully die, their leaves are the color of autumn leaves

-Younger Torterra have more vibrant green colors

-There is a very old Sinnoh Legend that the world we live on is on the back of a sleeping Torterra

-When threatening another pokemon, Torterra will stomp, roar, and stand on their hind legs. While wild Torterra don't usually threaten humans (they'll either leave you alone, come up to check you out, or even act alp friendly to you), just walk away because they won't attack you if you get out of their way

[antihibikase2]

“Ready?”

From across the field, Slater holds a Pokeball close to his chest. Steadying his cold breaths, he flashes a nervous smile to his partner- who now serves as his opponent, his teacher in the art of battle.

“Please be nice.”

“Don’t worry,”

His glasses shone under the summer sun, a hint of mischief in his tone. 

He knew Slater would get upset if he held back- and Slater, as much of a liar as he was, would poorly hide how a loss affected him, with flushed cheeks and a thinly-veiled lie.

Regardless of how this battle would end, Descante would get what he wanted- but, realistically, he felt that the battle would go in his favor.

“I’m very nice.”

“Scary.”

[ Battle! Vs. Slater ]

They sent out a pair of mirror images- Descante’s Tornadus against Slater’s own.

Through the mighty roars of the beasts and the howling beasts, it’s unknown to any spectator whose voice resounds.

“Knock off!”

“U-Turn!”

The same two commands are repeated twice for each trainer; and as soon as they appear, the soon they pivot out of the field.

Taking his Tornadus’ place, Slater’s Rotom whirls out of its Pokeball and into the battle, leaving a trail of static and droplets of water. 

“Washy! Hydro Pump!”

A swirl of sand forms around Descante as he calls out his next Pokemon. 

“Hippowdon! Stealth Rock!”

After one Hydro Pump follows another in quick succession- and Descante’s Hippowdon is out of commission.

He flicks his glasses, adjusting them to his face. “Wait- how do I,” He holds onto his headphones, still clinging on the side of his head. “How do I deal with Rotom-?”

“I don’t know!” Slater cries in a panic, holding his cardigan around himself in the midst of a sandstorm. “You picked this team for me!”

“Oh, I did,”

He grabs onto the next Pokeball in his belt, sending out his Stoutland, undeterred by the weather conditions.

“Washy, come back!”

“Stoutland, Return!”

“Bunny, go-!”

She doesn’t get a chance to Mega Evolve, either. Mimicking her trainer’s panic, Bunny is caught off guard as Stoutland rams into her, sending her flying and crashing against the walls.

Stoutland shakes its head from the impact, a silly little smile plastered on his face as the other Pokemon is recalled.

Descante is barely able to hold back an amused smirk. It was adorable to see both Slater and his Lopunny flustered. “Well, Doggy fell in love it seems. I would have too.”

“That’s not funny!” Slater squeaked out, cheeks flushed red as he sent Tornadus to the field. “I panicked!”

“You did. And it seems you’re still quite nervous,” 

Stoutland shakes off whatever lingering thoughts it had about Slater’s Lopunny, ramming into the legendary without much of an effort. Amusingly, it’s blown into the spot just next to where Bunny left a dent- this time leaving a hole.

“Lesson number one, angel- always keep your cool.”

Holding the side of his face with one hand and a Pokeball in the other, Slater murmured. “Easy for you to say. All this, and you still have time to be cool- mentally and physically."

“You flatter me.”

In his flustered state, he sends out a Pokemon befitting the situation. 

Magearna twirls into the field as the sandstorm subsides, its rabbit-like ears clicking like the antennae of a bug-Pokemon. Perhaps it was trying to calm its trainer.

“Stoutland, go.”

“Let’s, um,” Slater pats his own face, trying to steady himself. “Okay, let’s see where my luck takes me now. Um, Focus Blast-!”

It withstands the attack, pointed feed skidding through the soil and leaving a trail on the grass. 

Before Stoutland can retreat to its position, the cannon in front of its face fully charges- and Stoutland is blown away, just as it had with Slater’s other two Pokemon.

This does little to deter Descante- his angel, thankfully, was lucky. The last thing he wanted was a one-sided beatdown.

“Good, good,” He takes another Pokeball. “I suppose you can make up for inexperience with faith.”

“It’s all I have, you know.”

Tornadus is once again sent out on the field.

“Heat Wave!”

In a show of irony, Descante’s attack misses.

In the split second he was utterly dumbfounded by the comedic timing of it all, Slater pointed his finger at the Tornadus. “Dolly, Ice Beam!”

A thin laser of ice blows through the field, striking the heart of Tornadus.

He sees Slater smiling a little behind his sleeve-clad hand.

“..faith, huh?”

“That-” He adjusts his glasses again, trying to hide his own embarrassed expression with his hair. “That was a cruel joke.”

“Now that’s funny.”

A Beast Ball is sent out next- he had gotten Slater “acquainted” with the Ultra Beasts much earlier on, so as to not completely overwhelm him with their presence in their battle.

But perhaps, that was a mistake on Descante's part as well.

“Earthquake!”

He had expected the piercing rocks to instantly one-shot the automaton- but, holding onto a single glimmer of hope, Magearna persisted, its cannon ready once more.

“Volt Switch!”

With that, Slater takes down three of Descante’s Pokemon in a row- at the cost of Soul-Heart being reset.

Slater’s own Hippowdon emerges, setting up the Sandstorm once more.

“Remain focused,”

Was it to himself, or to Slater? It didn’t matter.

“I can still win.”

Toxapex takes the stage, a little creature many in Descante’s college were fond of, despite its cruelty to Corsola. 

“Stealth Rock!”

Predictable!

“Toxic! Then Scald!”

Toxapex hurls a purple pile of sludge at Hippowdon, immediately followed by a burst of boiling water. 

“Whirlwind!”

Finally, Descante’s last Pokemon was forcefully sent to the field. 

Another angel just like the one standing across the field, Nihilego.

Descante raises an eyebrow. 

“Sludge Wave.”

Resisted, as expected. But with the buildup of Toxic, and another Sludge Wave, Hippowdon would be no more- and both Nihilego and Toxapex could make do with the rest of Slater’s party.

That was the plan.

Until-

“Earthquake!”

Wait!

And unlike Slater’s Magearna, Nihilego faints in an instance, its body nearly shattering into a thousand pieces of glass.

Droplets of venom splatter on the field, nearly brushing against Descante’s cheek.

Wide-eyed and mouth agape, Descante could not help but raise his voice in wonder at the sight of Slater, who seemed to have realized something.

Victory was in his grasp.

“Your Hippowdon-” He sputters. “It runs Earthquake?”

“Um, yes-”

“Why?!”

“It-” Slater waves his hands around. “Um, I had a battle before, it was against a Clefable- long story short, she didn’t have any attacking moves and all Clefable did was stall, so-”

In the midst of his amazement, Toxapex returns to the field, his last Pokemon standing.

“Baneful Bunker.”

The next Earthquake that Slater hastily commands doesn’t hit.

He knew he was going to repeat that action- and by that next turn, Hippowdon would succumb to the effects of Toxic.

Still, he had three remaining, one of which was-

“Earthquake, your last one!"

“Recover!”

Hippowdon’s last hurrah barely left an impact. His Rotom once again appears, but just as Descante plans his next move-

“Volt Switch!”

“Toxic!”

“Dolly!”

Steel was immune to Toxic- but Magearna faints upon arrival, courtesy of the rocks Descante had set up earlier. Toxapex’s attack fails, and it whines over the feeling of leftover static dancing around its body.

Rotom appears once more, and after two turns of Baneful Bunker, another Volt Switch lands, to be followed by a Recover.

When Slater sends his last Pokemon, Descante couldn’t help but stare.

Big eyed and sweet like a tart apple, with two small wings fluttering on its back- Victini looked just like Slater as much as Lopunny and Magearna had; but Descante supposed that should have been obvious, given that he had themed Slater’s current party over Pokemon he would love.

And Pokemon that resembled him, but neither Slater nor NEO PRO needed to know that.

“Baneful Bun-”

The shimmering crystal in Victini’s hands glows, floating out of its hand and shining a heavenly light down upon it and its trainer.

The Z-Ring Slater had borrowed started to glow in tandem with the crystal, and, with a flustered expression, he strikes a pose.

“Z-Celebrate!”

Oh no.

The wrath of two angels descends upon him and his Toxapex as Slater’s finger, directed at the both of them, points downwards.

“Stored Power!”

…

Laying on the grass, covered in a mix of poison and sand, Slater fusses over Descante with an apologetic expression.

“I, ah-”

“You didn’t tell me.”

“I’m sorry, I had Hippowdon’s moveset changed a while back, please don’t be mad-”

“Angel, you didn’t tell me how much you improved!”

He’s caught off guard when Descante suddenly stands up, lifting him off the grass and twirling him around in an uncharacteristic public display of affection.

“Oof, Descante-”

“You were training so hard all this time-” 

Admittedly, he would have thrown the match if he was overwhelming Slater, but-

“-and it really paid off. I’m so proud of you.”

The other’s eyes lit up. “..you are?”

“Absolutely. I- you’re really good, you should train with me, and-”

He was cut off by the beeping of Slater’s Xtransceiver- a notification to remind him to prepare dinner.

“..let’s do that tomorrow,” Descante cuts himself off with a smile, rare and fond; something he reserved only for Slater. “How about we go out for dinner tonight? As a treat for you.”

Slater’s ears perked up at the sound of a reward.

“We can, ah,”

Slater immediately thinks of his options, barely able to conceal his excitement.

“Take the subway to Black City. A little further down there, we can eat at that seafood place in Undella I keep telling you about, if it’s okay?”

From behind him, the only Pokemon that wasn’t a rental, Bunny, chirps in agreement. Her fur slightly tousled, body still vibrating with the adrenaline from earlier-  she was exactly like Slater in every way.

Though Slater was the one getting rewarded, Descante found a prize of his own in that pleasant smile.

Anything for his angel- as long as he was happy, Descante was happy too, whether he won or loss didn't matter.

“Sounds good.”

To Another Abyss - Chapter 28: It's a long way to the promised land

(Chapters -which are usually between 500-1000 words- will be posted daily here first on Tumblr, and will later be posted in 7-8 chapter batches on AO3.)

-

Kanto has changed a lot in the past ten years. The League is no more, and trainers are now only tools for the rich and powerful, either mercenaries or dogs of the government.

Sabrina is the latter. She is to play the role of Gym leader in a sick, twisted mockery of the art she once admired, bearing the name of her childhood idol, a woman who is now wanted across the region. All for the entertainment of Kanto’s shadowy new rulers.

It’s a role she doesn’t mind playing. At least until an unusual challenger comes into her Gym, into the life she’s worked so hard to build, and begins to unravel it all.

Chapter 28 - It's a long way to the promised land:

Black eyes set alight with fury, the man with the cross screamed at the top of his lungs as he threw the man holding him from behind over his shoulders, instantly producing a knife from his sleeve and stabbing it into his liver the second as he slammed to the ground. Two others reached to grab him, Pokeballs in hand, but he dove forward and vaulted over the one he’d just stabbed, putting distance between them.

“Agh, they… they have my Pokeballs!” he roared as he stumbled back toward Sabrina’s side, eyes moving back and forth dizzyingly. Yet when he glanced over his shoulder, he noticed the girl had her eyes closed tight, as though concentrating on something. 

What followed was an eerily familiar chill, air thinning, compacting around them.

Come on… Just a little more…

To the man’s great surprise, a faint blue light surrounded their bodies, blurring them, making them fizzle in and out like a broken T.V. image. They were almost gone-

“Swift!”

A wave of golden energy stars slammed against the back of both trainers, pushing them violently against the nearest pillar and almost throwing Sabrina to the ground.

“Shit! I can’t… I can’t do it yet!” She cursed her weakness as she wiped the blood off her cheek, vision swimming, head pounding.

A familiar, chillingly cruel laugh echoed from behind them, almost too far back to hear properly.

“It’s already too late!” Azure bellowed, sounding positively ecstatic, like a child about to open a birthday present. “Do you see now, Sabrina? At the most critical moment, when it truly mattered, you doubted him! You chose to believe me! And now it’s too late, no matter what you do!”

“SHUT U-!!”

A massive figure slammed against the wall behind them, shattering it with ease and forming a huge hole beneath the body of the Pokemon that had been tossed. The man’s Arbok lay unconscious over a pile of rubble. And on the opposite side, Azure’s Nidoqueen cracked her knuckles, eyes fixed on the wounded Scyther before her.

Bursting with panic and adrenaline, Sabrina’s eyes went to the hole in the wall. It led to the Gym arena, and thus, the exit.

“Now!” she screamed, grabbing the man by the arm. “Let’s go!”

“Wait-no! Clay!”

Struggling against Sabrina’s pull, the man looked horrified over his shoulder at the Scyther who could barely dodge the barrage of fire from the Houndour as well as Nidoqueen’s punches. He was fast, faster than the eye could follow, but against so many of them…

“Shit!”

In their distraction, a pair of buzzing Beedril appeared in between them and the exit. Sabrina froze in place. She still had another Pokemon, but-

He didn’t think about it for a moment. In an inhuman burst of speed fueled by fear and loyalty alike, the Scyther cut a zig-zagging green path around his opponents and threw himself at the two Beedril, blocking their stingers with each of his scythes. His two new opponents threw themselves at him alongside the four behind, and yet somehow, miraculously, Clay managed to hold them off for a few moments, dancing between their attacks like smoke through one’s fingers.

“Let’s go!” Sabrina repeated, desperately dragging the man toward the exit. “Please!”

Tears forming in his eyes, the man with the cross finally stopped resisting. They took the first step over the rubble.

“Clay… CLAY! Please… Don’t die, partner!”

He took one last, painful look back; he would never see his Pokemon again.

And they started to run.

Binghamton Black Bears x Pokémon Special Hockey Jersey: A Legendary Collision of Ice and Imagination

In a world where sports apparel often plays it safe, the Binghamton Black Bears x Pokémon Special Hockey Jersey dares to do something truly spectacular—it merges two fan-fueled universes into one unforgettable, show-stopping design. This is not just a hockey jersey. This is a collector's item, a nostalgia trip, and a cultural power play all stitched into one. It’s where the raw energy of the rink meets the colorful charisma of Kanto, Johto, and beyond.

A Jersey That Tells a Story

From the first glance, this jersey doesn't whisper—it shouts personality. The upper half features a rich, emerald green, a tone that perfectly evokes both the icy determination of the Black Bears and the vibrant life of the Pokémon world. Right in the center of the chest: the team’s name, “Binghamton Black Bears”, printed in sharp black text that stands bold and unyielding.

But below that is where the story truly unfolds—Pikachu leads the charge, flanked by a team of determined Pokémon heroes—Squirtle, Bulbasaur, Charmander, and more—each sporting hockey gear and Black Bears pride. These aren’t static mascots—they’re in action, skating into battle with energy and teamwork, like a line change mid-rush.

Turn to the back and the narrative continues, with Charizard and Lucario powering through, symbolizing strength, flame, and focus. Centered proudly is the Black Bears “B” logo, stylized and blown up to dominate the composition—a letter, a symbol, and a roaring force of identity.

Visual Design: A Dynamic Balancing Act

The genius of this jersey lies in its balance of chaos and control. The energetic lower half is a black-and-white manga-style collage of classic Pokémon panels. This touch adds dimension, paying tribute to the origins of Pokémon in Japanese storytelling, while allowing the fully-colored characters above to leap off the fabric like they're breaking the fourth wall. It’s motion, history, and artistry, all in one seamless transition from comic to canvas.

The jagged black mountain motif acts as a natural divider across the midsection, adding a sharp, energetic contrast—representing the clash of nature and ice, fantasy and grit. It’s a visual metaphor for everything this collaboration stands for: duality, unity, and evolution.

Comfort and Craftsmanship: Made for the Ice, Built for the Streets

This isn’t just a jersey to admire on a hanger—it’s built to perform. The material is lightweight but tough, breathable for the rink but cozy enough for everyday wear. The crewneck cut gives it a retro hockey vibe, while the long sleeves and elastic cuffs ensure comfort and security whether you're cheering from the stands, gaming on the couch, or skating into overtime.

The fit is unisex, inclusive, and athletic, meaning this jersey adapts to every fan—young or old, player or collector, Pokémon trainer or Black Bears diehard. It’s meant to be lived in, worn out, and passed down like a treasured trading card.

Crossover Magic: More Than Just Merch

What makes this jersey truly special is what it represents. This isn’t just a Pokémon shirt with a hockey logo or a Black Bears jersey with cartoon flair—this is a carefully considered fusion, grounded in shared values between two powerhouse communities.

Team spirit meets trainer pride.

On-ice grit merges with in-game evolution.

Local identity bonds with global nostalgia.

In short, it’s a love letter to fandom itself, to the inner child and the lifelong fan. Pokémon fans will recognize the bold characters and classic art references. Hockey fans will feel the swagger and spirit of a team that knows how to fight hard. And everyone in between will feel one thing above all: joy.

For Binghamton, For the Fans, For the Fun

For the city of Binghamton, this jersey is more than a marketing move—it’s a moment. A chance for the Black Bears to stand on the national stage with a design so inventive, so joy-filled, it transcends league or level. It celebrates minor league hockey with major league ambition. It says, “We see you, we love you, and we know what gets your heart racing.”

Whether worn by fans in the stands at Visions Veterans Memorial Arena or shared on social media by collectors around the world, this jersey is already an instant classic, a shining example of what happens when local teams think globally—and design boldly.

Conclusion: The Ultimate Evolution in Fan Apparel

The Binghamton Black Bears x Pokémon Special Hockey Jersey is a triumph of creativity, passion, and playfulness. It’s not just a fusion—it’s an evolution. It reminds us why we fell in love with Pokémon in the first place and why we stand, scream, and cheer for our teams. It captures that childhood magic and adult pride and binds them together in one glorious, green-and-white celebration of fandom.

In a world of mass-produced sportswear, this jersey is a rare shiny—beautiful, collectible, and truly unforgettable.

SEATTLE THUNDERBIRDS x POKÉMON SPECIAL HOODIE: AN EVOLUTIONARY BLEND OF CULTURE, SPORT & NOSTALGIA

SOARING THROUGH REGIONS: WHEN ICE MEETS INDIGO PLATEAU

The Seattle Thunderbirds x Pokémon Special Hoodie is not just a garment — it’s a journey through time, teams, and treasured memories. This extraordinary collaboration effortlessly binds the tradition of Pacific Northwest hockey with the magical allure of Pokémon, creating a hoodie that speaks to fans from both icy arenas and pixelated paths.

Whether you’re chasing the puck or catching ‘em all, this piece promises to keep your spirit high and your fandom visible.

DESIGN THAT SPEAKS LOUDER THAN A ROAR OF THE CROWD

Visually commanding, the hoodie’s dominant navy blue upper half mirrors the Thunderbirds’ proud home colors, creating a powerful backdrop for the team's bold totem-style logo — a symbol of heritage and unity. The green jagged transition line evokes the wild terrain of the Pacific Northwest, while also serving as a striking border between the bold top and the comic-book style lower half. Below, an energetic row of Pokémon characters burst to life in vivid, colorful detail. The grayscale manga art beneath adds depth and dynamism, turning the hoodie into a wearable storyboard. Every panel tells a tale of adventure, resilience, and strategy — the very qualities shared by great athletes and Pokémon trainers alike.

A RARE DROP WITH UNMATCHED CULTURAL POWER

This limited edition hoodie isn't just fashion — it's fusion at its finest. The collaboration between the Seattle Thunderbirds and Pokémon reflects a rising wave of crossover culture, where sports fans and pop culture lovers unite over a shared love for iconic storytelling and bold identity. The presence of official Nike branding ensures authenticity, while exclusive Pokémon patches make it a collector’s prize. More than anything, this hoodie becomes a flag for the multiverse of modern fandom. It’s cozy. It’s loud. It’s proud. And it’s here to remind us that in every battle — on the ice or in a Pokémon gym — style and spirit matter just as much as skill.

Godzilla Lennium 1999 Edition Chapter 23

Two days had passed since the construction on Victory Field had concluded, and it was now the moment for Jake and Godzilla to confront Kaylin and her monstrous creature named Smog Kaiju. The much-anticipated battle was about to take place on the well-prepared battleground that was Victory Field.

As the day arrived, Jake and Godzilla made their way to the center of the field, ready to face their rivals. There, they encountered Kaylin, who playfully greeted Jake with a smile, saying, "Well, well, if it isn't the hero we've all been waiting for. Remember, I might be the 3rd cutest in the superior five, right after Joanne and Lilly, but don't let that fool you." Her statement was a gentle reminder of their friendly rivalry, as they had known each other for quite some time.

Jake couldn't help but let out a sigh in response to her playful banter. He gently said, "Thanks for the compliment, but my heart is with Carla. After all, we have a history together, growing up side by side in our small hometown and sharing many memories throughout our school days." His words reflected his affection for Carla, who was clearly important to him.

Before the battle could begin, a man approached them with a coin, asking Jake if he would like to call heads or tails. After a brief pause, Jake made his decision, "I'll go with heads, please." The man tossed the coin into the air, and as it spun and glinted in the sunlight, it landed on the ground with a clink. It was heads, giving Jake a small edge in the upcoming fight.

With the coin toss completed, both Jake and Kaylin proceeded to their respective vehicles. These vehicles were specially designed to serve as command centers, allowing them to communicate with and direct their monsters effectively during the battle. The tension in the air grew thicker as they climbed inside, ready to engage in the epic showdown that awaited them. The group watched in the hotel with anticipation, eager to see how the competition would unfold between these two skilled trainers and their powerful creatures.

Once inside the bunkers, Jake and Kaylin took their positions, their hearts racing with excitement and nerves. They knew that the outcome of this battle would not only determine their standing in the tournament but also have a significant impact on their friendship. The countdown began, and as the final seconds ticked away, they each focused intently on their monitors, preparing to issue the commands that would shape the course of the fight.

The monsters roared to life as the bunkers opened, revealing Jake's Godzilla and Kaylin's Smog Kaiju. The ground trembled beneath their massive feet as they stepped out into the open, ready to do battle. The air was electric with anticipation as the two creatures locked eyes, knowing that only one would emerge victorious from the intense struggle that was about to unfold.

The battle was about to commence, and with every heartbeat, the helicopters above ensured a safe distance to not get caught in the middle of the battle. Jake and Kaylin, were eventually ready.

"Here you can see challenger Jake is battling Kaylin to gain victory number 4" stated a man recording from above Victory Field. The tank lifted its turret away from the area known as victory Field and then released a powerful shot into the sky. This was the signal that Jake had been waiting for in his bunker. He communicated with Godzilla using his mind, saying, "Godzilla, perform a power chop now." Godzilla observed the Smog Kaiju as it attempted to protect itself, but the creature was unprepared for the martial arts move that came next. The Smog Kaiju was hit with incredible force, knocking it down onto the ground.

Kaylin, who was also watching from her protective shelter, called out, "What a sneaky move!" She was not happy with what she saw. The Smog Kaiju managed to stand up again, and thick, eerie smoke started coming out of its mouth. It looked like the Smog Kaiju was getting ready to do something nasty.

"Smog Kaiju," said Kaylin, "Use your cursed cloud attack on Godzilla!" The Smog Kaiju obeyed her order, and a strange, ghostly cloud of smoke formed around Godzilla. The powerful creature let out a scream and tried to escape from the smoke. However, Godzilla was strong and soon the cloud disappeared.

Jake was not going to let this continue. He thought to Godzilla, "Now, use your radioactive beam!" A brilliant blue light shot out of Godzilla's mouth, aiming straight at the Smog Kaiju. The beam was so intense that it pushed the Smog Kaiju into the water nearby. But the Smog Kaiju was not giving up. It climbed out of the water, letting out a terrifying roar that echoed through the air. It sounded like a mix of a monster's growl and a chilling wind.

"Smog Kaiju, I urge you to deploy a specter punch and try to topple Godzilla with it," instructed Kaylin, a lady who had just turned twenty-six and was also the fourth participant in the group known as the Superior Five. Smog Kaiju, a creature with a mysterious and somewhat eerie dark glow about it, threw a punch that was almost like a ghostly apparition. This peculiar punch hit Godzilla and successfully made him fall to the ground, but only for a brief moment. Godzilla, feeling quite upset, began to rise again, showing his determination to continue the fight.

The confrontation between the two colossal beings went on and on, with each collision being more intense than the last. Godzilla retaliated with a powerful radioactive blast, but Smog Kaiju, known for its shadowy and phantom-like abilities, remained standing firmly. The battle was still ongoing, and it did not appear to be reaching a conclusion anytime soon.

As the humans in the helicopter hovered above, capturing the spectacle with their cameras, they couldn't help but express their amazement at the sheer might and power displayed by the monsters. They were recording these moments to share with their friends and colleagues, namely Carla, Ryan, Kate, Hiroshi, Mickey, Joanne, Brunswick, and Lilly, who were the only ones among them truly appreciating the battle.

Kaylin, reflecting on the situation, thought back to her life in Ghost Village. Her mother and father used to tell her tales of a man who had once attempted to cause destruction and claim the entire world for his own greedy purposes. In contrast to that, Jake, the strategist behind Godzilla's moves, seemed to have a different goal in mind. He was training Godzilla to serve as a protector of the Earth, which she found to be a truly commendable and brave endeavor.

The battle raged on, and as the two titans clashed once more, Kaylin couldn't help but feel a sense of awe and respect for Jake's tactics. Despite the odds, he had managed to harness Godzilla's power and channel it into something that could potentially safeguard their planet.

The battle raged on at Victory field, where the mighty Godzilla faced off against the nefarious Smog Kaiju. "Godzilla, use your hex claw!" Jake communicated telepathically, giving the creature a strategic order. In response, Godzilla placed his arms in a crossed position, with his claws pointing towards the smog-like being. He then ripped through the air, releasing a powerful energy wave that slammed into Smog Kaiju. Despite the impact, the creature managed to rise again, leaving Kaylin astonished. She had not anticipated such a fierce countermove.

Jake and Kaylin both issued commands to their respective monsters as the fight went on, neither side showing signs of defeat. The battle was intense and seemed to have no end in sight. "I knew from what Brunswick told me that Jake and his Godzilla were formidable opponents," thought Kaylin, "but this is truly unexpected." For a brief instant, she took a deep breath, contemplating the unforeseen turn of events. Then, with renewed determination, she instructed Smog Kaiju to execute another attack.

As the dust settled from their previous clash, Godzilla and Smog Kaiju stood before each other, each appearing to be drained of energy. Their surroundings were silent except for the sound of their heavy breaths, creating an eerie atmosphere. Despite their weariness, the monsters remained steadfast, ready to continue the battle. The spectators watched anxiously, knowing that the outcome was still uncertain.

Finally, as the silence was broken by the sound of a gust of wind, Kaylin made her decision. She whispered an attack command into her device, sending it directly to the mind of Smog Kaiju. The creature responded, mustering its remaining energy to fight on. The battle at Victory field was far from concluded, and the spectators held their breath, eager to see what would happen next.

Jake watches as Godzilla seemed slightly drained of energy, "Godzilla don't lose now, we can do this. Try your atomic sparkler" he told Godzilla telepathically. Godzilla launched a radioactive bolt of lightning at the Smog Monster which seemed to have quite enough energy to cause it to tire out. Godzilla and the Smog monster were given a healing item to restore their energy both monsters watch the two humans on the field who were driven from the distant bunkers.

"It seems you won against me, Lilly is just as powerful so if you can win against her in the monster battle championships you will get a surprise" said Kaylin. Jake smiled, "It was nice to meet you and the others in that village, I never thought that was where the superior five were hiding. You Mickey, Brunswick, Joanne were all great and I liked seeing what kind of creatures Godzilla would be facing" he stated.

Jake and Kaylin were positioned at the very center of Victory Field as the helicopter disappeared into the distance, heading back to its nearby station for the night. The battle against Godzilla and the Smog Kaiju had come to an end. Looking at Jake, Kaylin spoke with a gentle smile, "You know, the Ghost Village was the place where I grew up. As a child, I encountered many strange and unusual things that most people would consider paranormal. But instead of feeling scared, these experiences filled me with wonder and made me aware that there is more to the world than what we can see."

Jake smiled back at her, his expression warm and friendly, "I truly hope that the next time we meet, it will be under better circumstances, as friends rather than adversaries." He stated. Kaylin nodded in agreement before turning her attention to the Smog Kaiju. It gently picked her up with one of its massive hands. She wrapped her arms around its thumb and spoke with excitement, "Take me to the mountains, please. I'm eager to see the breathtaking scenery that Mickey described to me."

With a slow and steady gait, the Smog Kaiju began to move towards the hillside. As they started their journey, Jake gazed upwards at the towering figure of Godzilla. The creature was standing still, seemingly contemplating the events that had just transpired. The air was filled with a sense of peace and relief now that the conflict had concluded.

Jake returns to the cozy little hotel to find his friends eagerly waiting for him. They were quite relieved to see him, as they had been concerned about his encounter with the fearsome duo of Kaylin and Smog Kaiju. "Oh, Jake, we were so worried that you and Godzilla might not come out on top in that battle," exclaimed Brunswick, his mouth full of food, which made him snicker a bit. Joanne couldn't help but express her annoyance, "Could you possibly chew before you speak?" she grumbled at him. Meanwhile, Mickey and Lilly joined in the playful banter, teasing Brunswick together.

Jake looked around and grinned, his eyes lighting up with happiness to see all his friends gathered. Carla inquired, "What's making you so cheerful?" Jake chuckled and responded, "What's not to be happy about? I'm just thrilled to be back with all of you guys." Carla returned his smile and took hold of his hand, saying warmly, "I'm so glad to hear that. And by the way, you've only got one more person to beat before you're the winner."

As the group chatted and laughed, Hiroshi excitedly approached Jake with some travel information, "I've already figured out all the amazing places we need to visit in the west. It's going to be such an incredible adventure together!" His enthusiasm was contagious, and everyone's spirits grew higher.

Suddenly, from the floor above, the sound of a heated argument reached their ears. It was Ryan and Kate, and their raised voices grew louder. "You like that Shirley from Mystic Wanderer more than me?" shouted Kate. "Well, I gave up being a cowgirl a long time ago when my dad allowed his barn to fall apart only to have it dragged to the beach," she added with a hint of sadness. "Forget about it, Ryan, we're done. I'm leaving," she declared firmly.

With that, Kate came down the stairs, her arms filled with her belongings. She announced to the group, "It seems like it just wasn't meant to be for us. But don't worry, there are plenty of other fish in the sea. So, Jake and Carla, I wish you both the best of luck." With a heavy heart, she exited the hotel.

Ryan quickly gathered his things and followed her down the stairs, looking utterly distressed. "Kate, Kate, please don't go," he begged, his voice filled with pain. However, she had already made up her mind. As she walked out the door, it swung back and smacked into him, adding to his misery. He laid there on the floor, looking up at her retreating figure, and whispered, "How could you do this to me?"

Hiroshi sighed, feeling sad. "Godzilla will be sad too," he said. They had lost two good people. Then, Ryan decided to go outside. They were in a building and he opened the door. They saw a long, dirty road ahead of them.

Mickey suggested they help find Jake's missing friends, Ryan and Kate. Many people in the group agreed. They started looking together in the big, wild place with lots of trees, water, and rocks. But they couldn't see the two friends anywhere. It was like they had disappeared.

They split into smaller groups to look faster. Carla called for Ryan near a bush with pretty orange flowers. Joanne called for Kate by some big rocks that made a wall with a steep drop on the other side. But they didn't hear anything back. Jake and mickey looked down a paved road that had a broken down car but Ryan and Kate didn't come back, Jake knew it was time to say goodbye to them for good.
