Hey, for that spec anatomy post you made back in March, what's the purpose of Enoch havin two stomachs?

Yoww

Short answer: I just think it's cool🤌

Longer answer: The first stomach is used as a pouch when the second one is full and digesting. Enoch is a huge being who uses a lot of energy in order to move and live. Keeping nutrients closely will allow him to 'fast' for long periods of time unlike Elsen (for example) who's need 3 meals per days.

Like this, he can focus on his work without worrying of being hungry.

It's my random headcanon on how his body works~

[teshadraws]

Nia references Trubbish and Garboder in one of the earlier chapters when counterin Tobias' argument about the oddities of the human world…

How could such a species even exist if humans never naturally came to be in this Pokemon world of Seekers?

One of Trubbish' Pokedex entries says, "... was created when garbage and industrial waste mixed, causing a reaction that generated Trubbish."

Unless you may have an entirely different origin in mind for them, lmao.

Same goes for both forms of Muk and Grimer.

… Do Kantonian Voltorb and Electrode exist in Seekers? I can't remember if either have ever appeared...

And I guess the regional forms directly affected by humankind's actions (i.e. Alolan Ratata and Raticate, Alolan Meowth and Persian, Galarian Weezing, Galarian Meowth and Perrserker, Hisuian Zorua and Zoroark) could technically have unique ways of comin to existence due to certain historical or cultural events in the past.

Apparently the Vanillish and Klink lines came first and are what inspired the creation of ice cream and gears…

What about Golett and Golurk and Baltoy and Claydoll? Both lines were created by ancient civilizations… Same POSSIBLY goes for Bronzong and Bronzor.

And I can see Rotom existin... they jus can't inhabit appliances because those jus don't exist in Seekers' pokeworld.

And what of the Magnemite line? Castform? Castform was shockinly actually artificially created in Hoenn to help predict weather! I could see them existin somehow through natural means (clouds that became sentient through mystical means).

What about Deoxys? Deoxys simply came from space when its virus inside a meteorite mutates in the planet's atmosphere… Not from any manmade means.

Does Spiritomb exist and would it be comprised of 108 Pokemon spirits?

The ones I can def rule out from previous asks and convos are Mewtwo, Porygon line, Genesect, Megearna, Type: Null/Silvally, the Galarian fossilmon, Future Paradox Pokemon… And that would also go for Past Parodox Pokemon as well.

I'm also guessin that rules out Meltan and Melmetal as well (can't remember if you mentioned that).

And ya said Ultrabeasts don't exist purely because of no Ultra Wormholes, so no Lunala, Necrozma, Solgaleo, Cosmog, nor Cosmeon. (Though someone made a point in the server about that tombstone possibly havin a depiction of Lunala on it…) I do like the idea that Lunala and Solgaleo have existed once in this world, but someday jus... vanished.

Eternatus is said to be from another world as well… I'm guessin it doesn't exist, or maybe it does to some compacity? Do Zacian and Zamazenta exist in some shape or form?

And since gimmicks like Z-Moves, Dynamax, Gigantamax, and Mega Evolution also don't exist, it'd only make sense the Terrastalization phenomenon also doesn't exist, so no Teragapos either… (Maybe they did at one time but have all vanished or gone extinct).

Could the Treasures of Ruin (Chien-Pao, Wo-Chien, Chi-Yu, and Ting-Lu) also exist in some capacity? It could've been some long forgotten or scarcely known Legendary crafted the items they possess and planted them as precious artifacts across rhe world that intrepid explorers or passersby found and the resultin avarice of whomever owned the treasures caused their curses to bring them to life and take on their corporeal forms as a form of punishment or some sick pleasure from that Legendary? I dunno, I jus really love this quartet! They're so fascinatin and I myself have actually found a way to incorporate them into my PMD EOS AU lore!!

I know this is an enormously long ask, but thanks tons if ya take the time to comb through this and offer some answers! I know a lot of this is reachin and not really pertinant to Seekers' main plot, but it'd be really cool supplementary material! Sorta like what ya guessed for Zekrom and Reshiram.

Oh dang, this is a beefy ask, haha! Here we go.

The Pokemon in Seekers still create waste, even if most of it isn't nearly as manufactured and toxic as the human world's! Plus, the runoff from natural poison types like the gulpin and clodsire lines contributes to the natural poison waste in the environment. I will say that poison types like trubbish and grimer are much less common in Seekers than in the mainline Pokemon worlds, though!

Kantonian voltorb and electrode exist as a natural steel-type offshoot of the Hisuian variant! They just happen to look a lot like the pokeballs of other Pokemon worlds. :]

Hm...I'm going to say the golett/baltoy/bronzor lines just came from ancient Pokemon civilizations' artifacts, rather than human ones!

Magnemite aren't artificially created, so they're present in the Seekers world! I agree that castform could exist through different means, but it's likely a rare occurrence since they would have to come together through a sort of "freak accident" of weather phenomena.

Deoxys isn't currently present in Seekers, but they would have the potential to show up at some point if the space virus made its way to the planet!

Spiritomb does exist, but it's Pokemon spirits instead of human ones as is usually implied in Pokemon's canon.

The meltan/melmetal line exists, though they're rare! They're not manmade and are born from natural steel components.

Whoops. Forgot that I mentioned Lunala on the crobat's tombstone, haha!!! 😅 Let's say that Lunala and Solgaleo are largely considered legends, then, even more so than other Legendary Pokemon. They were thought to exist once, but have long since returned to their own dimensions and are no longer present in the Seekers canon.

Similar to Deoxys, Eternatus isn't currently present in the Seekers world, but could potentially show up if the meteorite it was born from in canon showed up in the world!

Zacian and Zamazenta exist, just without the same lore from Sword and Shield (so no Darkest Day). Instead, they simply guard their territory from threats. I don't think they'll be considered Legendary in Seekers, though. They feel more like regular (albeit powerful) Pokemon to me. I don't have an area in mind for where they dwell, though! 

Terapagos probably exists, but its ambient power isn't enough to cause terrastalization in other Pokemon. No game gimmicks here.

The Treasures of Ruin might exist, but that's another quartet that I wouldn't really consider "Legendaries" in Seekers canon! I'd say they're lying dormant in their shrines throughout the Seekers world, but I don't have any lore currently on who sealed them away. They were sealed away due to being dangerous, though, since they were created from negative emotions! Not that that nixes the possibility for redemption down the line. 👀

Hope that satisfies some of your curiosity!

Heya! I adore your works so much, especially flesh and bone and Written in the Stars. I do have a question though: Have you cancelled Written in the Stars or is it on hiatus?

uhh somewhere in between. I don't want to delete it yet because randomly the desire to update it punches me in the gut, but every single chapter would need reworking, my plotline would need to be updated, etc. Basically it needs a lot of work and I would rather put my effort into other fics.

but again, never say never!

[the-spirit-of-adventure]

Heya, I absolutely positutely adore your art and ideas! I miss TMMAOF so much, and you breathed that little bit I lost back when I first discovered your comics. Also, would... would ya... like to hear about my sona/oc who's backstory was inspired by a song?

Hey, I’m really glad to hear that!!

And yes, of course I would! I love hearing about other peoples OCs, so go ham :D

[chaifootsteps]

What the actual fuck has Tara Strong been spewin and supportin and why haven't I noticed this until now!?

Last I checked, she liked NFTs and didn't like vaccines. Did she do something else?

[fujii-draws]

@trookay TALK ABT UR DADNOIR AU AT SOME POINT AND MY LIFE IS YOURS

Thinking abt a certain dusknoir-species HC where their stomachs aren’t just used to carry or yoink souls to the afterlife— but also placing their duskullings/kids inside their bellies for protection/comfort. (Kinda similar to how alligators put their kids in their maw/kangaroos put joey’s in their pouches.)

(And how hilarious it would be for The Dusknoir to deal with said paternal instincts and trying to silence them to no avail)

[windowhateswildworks]

All my progress, avatars… gone. I was going to redownload it, but didn't, and now..

Fuck.

dont worry! it seems like they didn't open the server today. i think they must be going for the 30 days route now. youll have a chance later next month to grab anything youd like!

Ivypool, Russetfur, Twigbranch, and Icecloud?

OOH many good ones!!!! <33 Sexuality Headcanon: ivypool: bisexual, but prefers someone more feminine than her russetfur: lesbian twigbranch: demi-pansexual icecloud: lesbian

Gender Headcanon: ivypool: transfem russetfur: cis she-cat twigbranch: demigirl icecloud: genderfae A ship I have with said character: ivypool: ivy/fern and ivy/furze !! russetfur: SASHA/RUSSET !! twigbranch: idk what ships there are for her... 🤔  icecloud: icecloud/hollyleaf and icecloud/hazeltail!! maybe even icecloud/dawnpelt........ 👀 A BROTP I have with said character: ivypool: her and blossomfall  russetfur: her and blackstar twigbranch: her and alderheart!! theyre super sweet!! icecloud: i like to think her and her foxleap are close as siblings!!  A NOTP I have with said character: ivypool: none besides the obviously bad ones!  russetfur: black/russet, idk cant picture them together romantically twigbranch: finleap and her... i kinda wished they stayed just friends after AVOS  icecloud: not sure what ships there are for her! A random headcanon: ivypool: shes generally sleek and shortfurred, so it doesnt show on her, but shes SUPER BUFF. she has alot of just pure strength that sometimes surprises her opponents!  russetfur: she recognised Hawk(frost) and Moth(wing) in Riverclan on gatherings, and was hoping sasha had joined there as well. she was disappointed to learn she hadnt :( she also secretly wished the kits were given to shadowclan instead, but she also understood why sasha hadnt twigbranch: she loves hawkwing, but doesn’t feel a proper father-daughter relation to him the same way violetshine does. twigbranch feels more of a family bond with lilyheart and alderheart (she does feel the closest bond of all to violetshine however) icecloud: she would have made a really great deputy/leader, and was told by her friends all the time, but she never even thought about it herself! General Opinion over said character: ivypool: LOVE HER... a really interesting and relatable character, i feel like she gets a bit too much hate sometimes :-o russetfur: i loved her friendship to sasha in sashas manga, but shes otherwise kinda mean... i do enjoy that alot as a character though, i wish she was made leader! if she had time to shine, i think some really great character-development or just characterisation couldve been made!! twigbranch: BABY GIRL i love her alot... one of the characters i relate the most to tbh!!! i wish she wasn’t made to be just some random BG character in the newest arc though :((  icecloud: baby... i had to google her to remember who she was to be fair, but now that i read about her on the wikia, i feel like she deserves more love!! shes fun!!!

Speaking of Shizuka referring to her friends and those she respects with the honorific"-san", I always wondered why Doraemon refers to Nobita and Sewashi with the "-kun" honorific. Is it because he's a caretaker, and thus they sorta defer to him? Or is it out of endearment to those he's close to? I've seen him also refer to Suneo with the -kun honorific before in that one episode where Suneo manages to hypnotize Doraemon into being his best friend with that heart button and remote control button. Though, I think he also refers to some other characters as -kun like the usual companions to Nobita in the movies or even that one-off character Tame.

Yeahhh. That's a darn good point.

But honestly, I legitimately don't even have an answer for that aside from something I already told over here.

[teshadraws]

Do move tutors exist in Seekers? As in, mons learnin moves from other mons not normally learned?

Also, any lore on Zygarde? And Zekrom, Reshiram, and Reshiram?

Yup!!! Most Pokemon just learn TM moves from relatives and friends, but there are professional move tutors out there who teach TMs and move tutor-specific techniques as a career! They’re more common in larger cities like Ghatha.

As for Zygarde, I’d say they’re unfortunately dormant at the moment. While their role is to guard the ecosystem and help balance Xerneas and Yveltal, they don’t fall into a sleep cycle like that duo does. So they were forced into dormancy with the other legendaries!

As for the Zekrom/Reshiram/Kyurem trio, I don’t have any lore in mind for them since they aren’t relevant to the main story of Seekers. The trio might still be fused together as the original dragon since the plotline from Black and White never happened in the Seekers world. Or maybe they were separated by two other warring factions. Who knows! Whatever and wherever they are at the moment, they’re asleep.

Happy early birfday Thank you!

Oh! Maybe Latenivenatrix and Stenonychosaurus? I adore troodontids.

You got it! Both have been added to the queue.

You aren't very fond of Spinel, huh? I've been meaning to ask. I would love to see your insight on her character and how you see her compared to a majority of the fandom does, haha.

Actually- I love find Spinel a very interesting character and what drew me into drawing for the fandom more recently was actually her character and the development behind her! 

I did an analysis of her a few weeks back, let me dig that up for you:

If you want an understanding of Spinel from my POV that’s it. 

 I adore flawed characters, I adore characters that make mistakes. As such, Spinel is fascinating to me and I am curious how she’ll be handled in the SU Future

Do you still have a link to that post of the old list of subspecies that provides pictures?

Mmhm. It's a smidgen outdated, but you can find it HERE!
