MIGRATING ALL OF MY PROTAG BLOGS TO @HER0TALES. CONSIDER THIS AN ARCHIVE.

Hey. What do yall use for your thread trackers.

Preserving this for posterity

"Her. My bad," he corrects, and motions for Absol to let her go so she can return to her trainer. (And he's fairly sure that's not true, considering he'd been a good distance away from the little thing when she decided to bite him. But he's not gonna argue on that point.) "I'm not sure. Might have gotten too close without realizing it, I guess? Or maybe Absol just spooked her. Wouldn't be the first time."

"Hey. Is this your eevee?" After scrambling around for a while, Yuki's Absol managed to catch AC Fryer by the scruff. "He bit me. Twice."

“She, actually.”

Ree watches casually as AC Fryer wiggles around, trying to get the edge over this Absol and flip the tables. The little champion sighs and whistles, sharp and short, getting the eevee’s attention.

“Anyway, she only bites when she feels cornered.” Not quite. “What’d you do to make her bite you?”

yuki's contest team consists of obstagoon, umbreon, luxray, noivern, lycanroc, & ceruledge.

[emeraldpride]

Yuki definitely has a dedicated secondary team for contests (which I will add in the near future). Anyway I think his contest persona's FC has to be this motherfucker.

[emeraldpride]

which unpopular archetype are you?

THE KILLER

you got fucked up something awful. sorry. i dont know why or when it got so bad for you, but now that heat feels so true to you that it’s hard to imagine a you without it. there’s nothing grand about the damage you do. it isn’t the kind that people write stories about. for this reason, it’ll be a while before anyone stops you, if they ever come around to it. it’s all the more likely that you’ll have to dig your own way out of this pit. one day you won’t even remember how blood tasted. the rage won’t keep you warm forever, killer! / / personality: intense, introspective, edgy / / counterpart: the dark horse

plotting call for my boy and reminder for future me to make an interest checker

so anyway the island trials are definitely an excuse and yuki just can't stand the idea of being in alola. too much island hopping. all the sea travel would kill him fr.

public vs. private info

to be updated as the blog progresses & I decide on more information about him

PUBLIC INFO (anyone could reasonably know this)

Yuki is the only child of Hoenn's 4th Gym Leader, Honda Norman Senri

Yuki is the "hero" who summoned Rayquaza and put an end to Groudon & Kyogre's rampage

Yuki has been traveling for the last decade-and-then-some odd years and battling various Leagues across the world

Yuki trains a new team for every league he challenges for the first time; he does not keep the majority of the pokémon he has trained

Uehara Ryunosuke is mildly famous in the contest circuit; he is also a budding actor

SEMI-PUBLIC INFO (anyone could know this with a bit of research)

Yuki competes in Contests under the stage name Uehara Ryunosuke.

Yuki donates the majority of his trained pokémon to conservation groups, as service pokémon, or as emergency response pokémon.

PRIVATE INFO (only people extremely close to yuki know this)

Yuki has been struggling with burnout & PTSD since his journey.

His Absol is a registered service pokémon for the previously aforementioned PTSD

Yuki has severe thalassaophobia and cannot be on open water in any form without experiencing a panic attack.

gonna write a headcanon abt his contest persona when I get home tonight

[emeraldpride]

the patron saint of bones

patron saint of frameworks. of structures. of solidity. patron saint of things that break. patron saint of things that are left behind. the bones survive long after the body, the building: what is there left for them, when the rest has gone? what do bones do, with nothing to hold around them? who holds the bones?

[emeraldpride]

big fan of characters with abandonment + attachment issues so profound that they leave claw marks in everything they touch but would sooner gnaw off their own leg than admit they just want someone to stay for once. in a totally normal well adjusted and not at all projecting way of course.

[emeraldpride]

the greats of Yuki's generation are Red, of course, the Sinnoh Protag, Hilda (yes this is the same canon as that blog what of it), and the XY Protag.

in competitive battling circles, there are 5 champions who are considered "all time greats" of their generation: Lance, Steven, Cynthia, Diantha, and Leon.
