(Uhhh. Whoops. Made another blog. This time it is still Poke'themed!)

[Start.]

[A child seems to be sitting in her room, watching a muted TV... All around her are toys, pages, and other soft, silent toys.]

[Do you Approach?]

[saguaropokevariants]

Hey ya'll.

I really, truly apologize for my absolute zero activity. I've been really sick as of late, and have been dealing with a lot of irl stuff as well. I promise I haven't forgotten about this blog.

I hope sooner or later, I'll be able to hop back in and continue working on this wonderful story. I'm very thankful for all of you who have stuck it out with me. I truly appreciate it.

[saguaropokevariants]

(@saguaropokevariants) Arawn carefully approaches, Saguaro practically pushing him from behind. "Ah... E-excuse me... If I may ask... what is the day-to-day life for you all like? I've been very curious what Legendary Pokémon do..."

I hope this awnsers your query and maybe even assist at your research 🌸🌷🌸

(Also sorry this took so long)

[saguaropokevariants]

Quick notice: The April Fools Event will end on the Seventh! If you have any questions for these three funky humans, or you want to ask some questions to me, the mun, about the lore and history of this species-swap world. :3 I'm also working on the regular story questions on the side.

[saguaropokevariants]

Storm kneels down carefully, keeping a distance so that Matcha could feel comfortable with him being there. "Don't worry. I have no intention to catch a Pokémon if they do not wish to be caught."

He sets down his Pawmi, looking to it before looking to the Tandemaus hybrid. "Ah... A Hybrid... That explains a lot, actually. I knew somewhat of Hybrids, thanks to Arawn here-my Pawmi. He's half Sneasel. If it weren't for how the dex categorized him, I would've thought he was a Sneasel that was part Pawmi..."

The Pawmi, Arawn, puffs out his chest in a show of pride. "{I was told I was a very special case!}" He felt very happy to be 'special', apparently...

"So the little one is a Mew...? I've... only heard tale of them... That is quite the special little kiddo, then." He glanced up to Inaris, chuckling somewhat, "And quite the copy-Delcatty they are, too."

[For April Fools events!] The human Storm approaches cautiously, holding his Pawmi. "If it's not too insensitive... I've never seen a Pokemon like you or your little one there before. I've seen Tandemaus before, but... You two are so different."

Matcha seemed nervous at the sudden appearance of a human.

“They won’t catch you,” Mochi said, as though sensing the hybrid’s distress. “I’ll make sure.”

Matcha nodded after a moment, and stood up straighter.

“We’re a hybrid. Eevee and Tandemaus,” they explained. “Hybrids aren’t really… common. Inaris is a Mew. Mochi said they’re shiny.”

“A hooman,” Inaris said very seriously.

[saguaropokevariants]

Mochi: Aww, what a cute Cyndaquil! Never seen one so red. He must eat a lot of iron.

Tanga: Lil' kibby and beeg kibby!! Durin: Tanga-... -sigh- I do apologize for her... She is very easily distracted... Storm: At least she's making friends... That little floating Pokémon seems to like her company. Durin: What is it, anyway...? I've never seen it before... Storm: Me neither...

-Saguaro approacches while Tanga is distracted.-

Saguaro: Cynda cyn-quil cyndaquil, quil quil cyndaquil. Cynda-cyn quil, cynda quil.[My mother's a pure Typhlosion, but my father was partially a Zangoose. That's why I'm so intensely red, I still gained the coloration of my father.]

(Translation: Oh, heyo! Is the weather nice today? I'm sure is, haha. *ahem*, so humans, huh? I barely have knowledge about them... enough ramblin', can ya tell about yourself?")

Tanga: BUPPY!!! Saguaro: Cynda! {Slow down!} Storm: Tanga... Our 'buppy' friend asked a question, y'know. Tanga: Oh yea!! I'm Tanga! I wanna be a Pokemon master, jus' like Chu! Durin: I am Durin... I wish to explore the world... Learn more. Tanga: You're more like Umber!! Durin: I suppose so... Storm: I'm Storm. Usually I'm at home with Arawn here, but I take care of Tanga for her dad. It's her first time adventuring out.

((MOD NOTE: I'm only doing sketches mainly for my own sanity... And only one, two per ask ^^;))

[saguaropokevariants]

EVENT: APRIL FIRST!

Tanga: Isn't he the CUTEST??? I'm so happy to have my first Pokémon ever! Now we can journey together, Durin! Durin: Yes... We can, ah... travel together. He is very sweet... ???: Tanga, don't frighten your new friend too much, alright? That Cyndaquil is a bit easily spooked. Tanga: I think he likes me, so don' worry, Storm!! Storm: That's true, he seems fond of you.

[Three Pokémon Trainers are talking about their Pokémon Partners... Will you approach?]

((Here is my April Fools Event! I took some time to design their outfits and hairstyle to match. I didn't do Enigma and Occa, as I uhh. did not want to draw that many humans.))

[saguaropokevariants]

Okay its VERY clear you guys want Species Swap XD I'll draw up the post soon~

So I am still VERY slowly working on questions, but for tomorrow, I have some ideas! Here's some you guys can vote on:

[saguaropokevariants]

I'm seeing reminders go out so I'm putting my own here, but there will be NO screamers/jumpscares or other triggering material posted on this blog or any of my others tomorrow for April Fool's (or EVER, really).

Please be assured that my blogs are SAFE for April 1st.

If you're still taking crackship requests, how about my lady Ripple and Smith? :)

Finally done with crackships... Here's four babies, one shiny, one half-shiny!

Candycrisp [Far left] is a pretty good combo between Applin, Ralts, and Grimer! Her half-split blends in the middle of her apple, creating this interesting effect between green, yellow, orange, and red! She's a cheerful lil critter, loving to roll around in her apple and sticking her head out. Due to her Grimer genes, she can fit into any size apple she wants! She might get some very interesting designs if/when she evolves.

Mutsu [Top middle] leans more Ralts! His apple is always a little... rotten and squishy. His goop mixes with the apple's, creating a 'tail' of sorts. He has struggles transferring to new apples, and prefers his old ones until they're actively falling apart on him. He's very nervous, due to his Applin and Ralts genetics-and tends to hide away in his goopy apple if he's frightened. Not many Pokémon will... WILLINGLY approach a rotting apple, due to the stench, and his natural Grimer stench simply adds to that.

Snow [Bottom middle] leans more Applin. She's a fancy lady, preferring the nicest looking apples-unlike her brother. Her apples always have odd, sharp spikes on the sides, which she uses for defensive purposes. She's a bit more aggressive when protecting herself, rolling surprisingly quickly towards her foes before coming to a stop and letting herself slide and drift so her apple's sharp spikes stab into the foe. She'll be a great Battle Pokémon!

Hawkeye [Far right] leans more Grimer! He's an odd lil guy, gooping out the top and dripping down his chosen apples. He likes long, stout ones, which makes it difficult to roll like normal Applins do. He instead hops, or falls to one side to roll around. Though if he rolls on the side of the apple, he ends up going in circles unless he readjusts using his tail... He's very silly and playful, though! Despite leaning far more into Grimer genetics, he doesn't smell terribly bad-more like an apple cider.

You're free to take these four lil cuties if you so wish!

[saguaropokevariants]

I absolutely loved the little Vulpix/Zigzagoon babies! I'll definitely be keeping them ^^

If I may ask for another one, how about Cerulean and Ty? I'm also pretty curious to know how Ty would react to having children, lol.

These four were so fun to design tbh... Also, if Ty does ever have kids, he'd be very kind and patient, but try to train them to be powerful battlers like he was before retirement and relaxing at Saguaro's place. He enjoys seeing Pokémon battling and watches whenever Saguaro's study Pokémon fight and train with one another. Though if he was surprised by some sudden babies he might be... VERY anxious.

Now onto the babies!

Teal [Far right] has a similar genetic mutation to Cerulean, missing his right arm to just be a nub. Otherwise, he's pretty lucky. He doesn't have a second neck tube, but otherwise he's a pretty good mix between Mewtwo and Cyndaquil. He's curious and wants to inspect things, but he's incredibly easy to frighten so he tends to stay in one location.

Ink [Top middle] is a little more Mewtwo than Teal, but still a good half-half. He does have Piebald shiny speckles, so he has spots of non-shiny marking his body. Plus an adorable heart marking on his chest! Unfortunately, the genetics messed with both his arms, giving him two nubs-AND fully blindness. Poor guy got a real short end of the stick here. Due to his blindness, he is a lot more cautious, sniffing to 'see' where things are, and using his hooves to touch further to attempt to understand his world. He still bumps into things a lot, but it doesn't seem to deter him any. He really tries his best, wanting to be just like Ty and be a high-ranking battle Pokémon!

Moon [Bottom middle] is far more Cyndaquil than Mewtwo! Though she struggles a lot since the genetics caused her to have a nub leg. Outside of that, she's pretty similar to most Cyndaquil at a young age, easily spooked and frightened but gets very friendly and cuddly with the right person. She doesn't really want to battle, but she is interested in travelling! She could easily become a Service 'Mon for someone, if they can look past the nub leg.

Helix [Far right] is far more Mewtwo than Cyndaquil! He has a weirdly long, thin left arm nub, along with his secondary neck tube not being fully connected. Though he got a lucky break, having his tail split into two! His half-shiny made him have a sort of 'tuxedo' marking! It looks pretty cute on him. When he's nervous, he twists them together almost painfully. He gets nervous a lot, too. He wants to have a human buddy, but he gets extremely anxious, worried they would dislike how he looks. Poor lil baby just wants a best bud...

You can have these four lil cuties if you so wish!

[saguaropokevariants]

Hey so you're doing crackships for valentinesday right? So could you maybe do Ty and Lantern (ref in pinned post)?

Have a nice valentinesday or just normal day idk.^^

Here are your four babies! All of them turned out Shiny, excluding one that became half-shiny! I had to basically come up with how Lantern looks as a shiny lmao, I just kinda inverted it and used the blue colors for the shiny because it looked nice. I also included what their fire would look like so that you can both see the back spots, and the fire color.

Shimmer [Far left] is a pretty perfect middle-ground between Mewtwo and Cyndaquil! He's a pretty quiet 'Quil, and due to his Mewtwo Genes, he tends to hide away from others as he doesn't really know if Trainers would be welcoming to a partial Mewtwo as a potential partner... Though he would really love to be someone's first Partner.

Plo [Middle top] leans more into Cyndaquil! He's much more energetic and curious, inspecting everything he can to sniff out and spot. His eyes are open wide unlike most Cyndaquil, and this allows him to see much farther! He uses this to his advantage, exploring far and wide. He doesn't want to be a first Partner, but he would love to chill out with a human, and maybe just be a couch potato Pokémon.

Plume [Middle bottom] is like Plo, leaning more into Cyndaquil. She's only half-shiny, her split lengthwise down her body, and makes a good lil zigzag design on her body! When she evolves and her eyes open, the shiny side will have the beautiful blue eyes, while the non-shiny will have Lantern's red eyes. She's also a rarity, being not only a half-shiny, but a female Starter Pokémon! She would prefer to try and learn how to be more Mewtwo-like, be her own Pokémon and travel the world.

Quill [Far right] leans more into Mewtwo! But, personality wise, he's far more like how Ty was as a Cyndaquil-eager, curious, and a bit easily spooked. He curls up and starts up his fire a lot whenever something spooks him! He's a sweetheart, though, and really likes to snuggle up with either his siblings, or any friends he makes.

All four of these cute babies are all yours to have if you so wish!

[saguaropokevariants]

For the crackship meme, how about my darling Dragon Alolan Ninetales Sophia here with Occa? I always adore your designs :D

Here's four lil babies for making you wait for so long for them hahah. One shiny, two half-shinies, and a non-shiny!

Dandy [Far right] is a funky lil drago, closest to Sophia in his genes. He sports a singular icicle gemstone, but he does have six tails like most Vulpix. He's a bit silly and goofy, a very playful little guy that enjoys looking at his split between Shiny and non-Shiny. His split is a flower petal split, similar to female Eevee tail tips.

Lilac [Middle top] is far more Orinatan Mareep, sporting a single tail that curls in on itself and hides her icicle gemstone. Her face markings mimic the fangs of Sophia! She's much more silent, but does enjoy snuggling with her siblings-and anyone else that allows her to get close enough. She's a sweetheart that wants to love everyone!

Violet [Middle bottom] is the only fully non-shiny, and the most unusual. Her two antennae from her draconic blood naturally stay in a swirl shape, no matter how much she moves them. She's extremely and instinctively protective, acting as the leader of her siblings and protecting them. Her tails can split apart and are much thinner than they appear, covered in a thick, lush fur similar to Minccino's.

Sym [Far left] is a nearly perfect blend of both parents. He acts as a guard shepherd-dog for his siblings, herding them as Violet leads the pack. He will happily bite down at anybody who gets too close to his family, not holding back his bite strength. His shiny split gave him Siamese-like markings that are Shiny.

You're free to take these four babies if you so please! If you plan on evolving any of them, please message me for the evolutions of Orinatan Mareep!

[saguaropokevariants]

(Crackshipping Ask - Khione/Rarity might be a fun mix :3 )

Tadah, three babies! One shiny, and one half-shiny! Honestly, Galarian Ponyta and Amaura work REALLY well together! I also rolled a chance for each of them being a Taur, but only one became a Taur... x'3

Quartz is the only non-shiny, but she doesn't mind! She's pretty chill, playing with her siblings. She uses her Galarian Ponyta powers to allow her to 'hold' things despite not having hands. She sometimes gets herself into trouble because of it...

Supernova is the only Taur! Due to her genes, she can easily carry either of her siblings in her arms using a mix of her own strength and her Galarian Ponyta powers-and she LOVES to do this. She'll pick up Quartz whenever she gets into trouble and simply... carry her away!

Junebug, being half-shiny, gets sick pretty often unfortunately. He eats a lot of Pecha, Oran, and Sitrus Berries to help him feel better. He quarantines himself when he's feeling ill, not wanting to spread his sickness to his sisters. Of course, this doesn't stop them from doing what they can to help him, but he still does his best to prevent others from catching what he has. His shiny-split is flower-patterned [like a girl Eevee's tail tip].

You're free to take these three if you so wish!

[saguaropokevariants]

Hey everyone, I wanted to quickly apologize for lagging out on all the Valentines day stuff. I have no real excuse, I just haven't been able to focus on it! I won't take anymore but I'll give everyone four babies to make up for it with an increased odds of shiny, along with the potential of partial Shinies like Calico the Mew is. How they're partial shiny will be randomized as well, so it could be Piebald like Calico, or it could be something entirely different.

The one I'm working on right now I've already gotten the outlines for and only generated three, so I do apologize to them in particular!

I also saw the results of the poll, and both Saguaro/Arawn and Lunar/Solar won! I figured as much, you guys seem to love these gay boys. I'll draw up both after all the crackship babies are done, and as a bonus, I'll doodle them with a baby of their own [whether or not they actually can/do have babies LOL]!
