FOXES POKÉMON AU!!!!!

Everyone loves Pokemon, so I thought why not? At the moment, this’ll just be one Pokemon and how they met. So feel free to add more or give some suggestions! This is a loooooooooooooooong hc so be prepared.

Okay so, Neil 

Neil gets his parter on the run with his mother

 Probably long before she dies

She doesn’t like the idea of having a Pokemon partner, it’ll be too easy to track

Until she sees the Pokemon that Neil brings home one day

It’s a Zorua

The illusion Pokemon joins Neil and Mary by helping them with disguises

somehow

 When Mary dies by Nathan and his partner, Bisharp, Neil and Zorua make their way to Millport

They spend their year there playing Exy and bonding

They don’t usually get into Pokémon battles but they enjoy their time together

Until Neil comes face to face with

Coach David Wymack of the Palmetto Foxes

Along with his partner Rufflet!

Their story is very simple

David found rufflet outside the court one day finding rufflet being attached by another bird Pokémon

Probably Spearow or something

Anyway...

Wymack jumps in to save Rufflet and nurses it back to health

He sets it free but it keeps coming back

 like god dammit he’s trying to do something good just leave

and Wymack gets a little annoyed but also kinda touched?

so he keeps Rufflet to peak players who aren’t focusing in the gym

When Neil runs he gets a feeling of sudden fear and he can’t seem to shake it

but he keeps running

running into Andrew and his partner

Gastly

Andrew met gastly when he ran away from a foster home and managed to make it to the city

he ducked inside an alley and found a floating ball of gas by a few bins

now gastly wasn’t used to people being near his area so he tries to attack Andrew

but Andrew just takes the attack he has nothing to lose

Gastly is confused cause normally people who are attacked by him run away in fear

so Gastly floats on over to Andrew and they have a little stare down and they come to a mutual understanding

they’re both alone so they should be alone together

When Kevin walks in Neil is terrified, he knows about Kevin and his Pokémon he’s seen the photos

so when Kevin walks in he has on his arm

Archen

because of Kevin’s fascination with history he was super interested in the prehistoric Pokémon

as a present before his mother died she brought him a pokeball

Kevin felt such genuine happiness at owning a Pokémon like Archen

he was also able to get away with owning Archen with the Ravens even though they all had a murkrow

Archen also helped Kevin escape the nest so he’s very attached to him

anyway so when Neil finally gets to South Carolina he meets the rest of the monsters

Aaron has Beldum as his partner

Nicky has Snorunt as his partner

Aaron met Beldum shortly after meeting Andrew for the first time

Aaron was still having a hard time at home and he also decided to run away or to “get some air” as he put it

He managed to find Beldum in a small cluster of other steel type Pokemon at an old factory

He stayed for a while and helped them out with food and other things which really appealed to the Beldum 

So when Aaron had to leave the Beldum had to go with him and refused to have him out of sight

much like Wymack he was also annoyed and Beldum following him, but he did feel bad for it since it was all alone

don’t tell anyone Aaron showed empathy

Nicky!!!!

Nicky met Snorunt while he was in Germany with Erik

I wanna say it was when he first left and so Nicky was still in despair and pretty depressed with what happened with his parents

So Erik decided to try and cheer him up with a trip to explore nature!

somewhere out in the snow was where they found two snorunts huddled together

Erik immediately started being nice with them

y’know feeding them berries and stuff like that

so when they walked on the two snorunts decided to join then for the day

When it came to leaving one of the Snorunts was ready to leave but the other one had seen the sadness still in Nicky

and jumped into his arms giving him a big icy hug

and it was one of the first of many times Erik saw Nicky smile

So naturally the other Snorunt paired with Erik and so it was really painful for both Nicky/Erik and Snorunt to be separated 

but they’re making it work!!! as they always do!

anyway

Neil meets the rest of the team starting with Matt

Matt with his cute little partner Pokemon Scraggy

Matt and Scraggy first met when Matt was first trying to get clean

it was when he was watching his mother fight in a boxing match Matt decided to get some air 

and when he stepped outside he saw a Scraggy headbutting a bin nearby

Matt being Matt decided to join in with Scraggy

he started play punching and play fighting with the Scraggy

so when he decided to go back inside be brought the Scraggy with him

Matt really liked Scraggy cause it kept him grounded when he had his off days of recovery

so in a way Scraggy helped Matt to keep fighting

Dan my darling child

A good old Eevee

When Dan first started at the strip club she noticed a few things really quickly

like how most of the workers had their own Eeveelution and managed to colour co-ordinate

it was pretty damn cool in her eyes

so naturally she went and got her own Eevee

when she first started performing and bonding she wanted to keep Eevee as an Eevee because no one else had and she wanted to stand out

and now here they are

Renee

A Ralts

she met Ralts before she joined the gang 

and when she did she had to hide the fact she had a ralts because she knew what they would do

anyway so Renee was walking in a park probably by herself when she saw something in a tree

when she went to investigate she saw a tiny Ralts cowering in the tree

and at that time it broke Renee’s heart so naturally she helped it down and sang to it to make it calm and the rest is history

I just really like the idea Renee would sing little nursery rhymes to her Pokemon

Allison

Allison had a lot of expectations growing up and was expected to own a very pricey kind of Pokemon

so when Allison was parading around her garden she met a little Budew bathing in the sunlight and being sang to by other Pokemon in the garden

Allison was intrigued and sat by the Budew and just listened

She felt very comfortable so she just started talking

about how much she hates her family life and the expectations put upon her

Budew felt very empathetic for Allison and snuggled into her

Allison brought Budew home so she could finally have a friend she liked

needless to say her parents did not approve

but she didn’t care she loved Budew with all her heart and made sure it had all the sunlight it wanted

Seth

honestly I couldn’t think of one for him it was hard enough for all the other foxes and Seth does die anyway so I didn’t really know how to approach this

I like the idea of Seth having a Pokemon but I would have no idea what it would do when he dies

and I can also see the hc of Seth hating Pokemon but I guess it’s still up in the air there

Maybe a ghost or dark type like Phantump or maybe like a Seedot

Bonus!! No backstory but we can’t leave out Betsy and Abby!

Abby like most practicing nurses should have an Audino or Chansey right?

Well Abby decided to not go down that road and has a little Deerling

Meanwhile Betsy would probably have a psychic type 

So I think she’d have an Espurr as her partner as I think Meowstic is pretty cool

Or a combee for the pun

Hope y’all enjoyed and feel free to tell me your ideas and opinions about this! First headcanon yo
