#this is emrys and edris I think

Ocs and what fandoms/communities I think they would be in if they were real:

Edris: Sonic the Hedgehog and Minecraft speedrunning.

Emrys: Furbies. She would probably get into customization too.

Khloe: D&D. I also get FNAF vibes and I'm not sure why.

Ferno: He would be really into cars, but that's already something that exists for him, he's just too preoccupied.

Reiser: I think he would have a lot of furry friends and end up interacting with the community a lot just because of that. Also because he's an artist.

Ian: Superhero comics.

Jax: Sherlock Holmes and perhaps the mystery genre in general.

Noah: This man would use Reddit, I am certain. As for fandoms.... this was the hardest one to figure out, but he would probably like Hazbin Hotel and a Hat in Time.

I was thinking about what Emrys' and Edris' final teams would be and I was struggling to choose whether Em would have a tentacruel or a toxapex. Then I realized the better question is how exactly she would even get either of those. Because both her and Ed are terrified of the ocean.

I've been trying to do research into trains since making Em and Ed and I think I've been doing an alright job, though it is a little challenging when there isn't one convenient place to find info on trains and it can be hard to figure out what to search on google.

If you have any cool facts on trains or know where to find cool facts on trains, let me know.

That being said, I'm going to explain the naming process I went through. Most of what I learned so far was from trying to come up with names for Em and Ed. I started by looking at different types of trains and quickly decided on looking into maglev (magnetic levitation) trains because that seems like the type of train Em would upgrade the old broken down one they found into (which may not make a whole lot of sense realistically, but it's not supposed to, they're goofy goobers). There were two terms I found that have to do with maglev trains, 'EMS' which stands for electromagnetic suspension and 'EDS' which stands for electrodynamic suspension. I decided that these abbreviations would be the basis for their names, so began searching for a pair of similar names which started with e, ended in s, and had either m or d in the middle.

It was quite hard to find some to meet these specific requirements. But I did it and got Emrys and Edris.

Also, if you recognize these names, you might notice that I gave the name 'Emrys' to the girl and 'Edris' to the boy when it should be switched. At some point while creating them, I mixed up the two names, and I noticed this later on, but I had already been calling them that so I said "screw it" and decided not to fix it.

So what about their pokémon? These are pokémon ocs. Well Em has a toxel - specifically a low-key toxel - and Ed has a Murkrow. I thought these fit well with toxtricity's neon colors and electric typing to power things or charge their battery (M&M have a battery that they use as their electricity source) and murkrow's interest in collecting shiny objects, which matches with Ed collecting thrown out objects, as well as it giving presents to those it's close to. As for their names, I decided they should also be taken from EMS and EDS. Magnus is the toxel and comes from "magnetic" and Dyna is the murkrow, being taken from "dynamic."
