Character Ask Topic List

Now that all the current characters of the cast are posted and ready for any potential interactions, I felt that it might help those looking for asks to offer some of my characters. Each character has their own particular topics they focus on based on their personality, but can branch out if something about the character stands out to them. Whether or not there is interest I may still send asks on my own ( Once Tumblr may be kind and let me embed text with links ).

All I could really ask in return is to keep comments about “Where are their clothes” to a minimum. All characters were designed as adoptables when they were purchased so giving them clothing is out of my hands except in writing or extra art. Alternatives such as making them feral, giving them random clothes, etc. also work. In any case, I hope the questions I may send are helpful if this catches on. To help those at least a little curious in this, here are all the current character topics.

Sword Cast

Charles ( Grookey ):

Ask Topic: General - Asks will generally be light-hearted as Charles talks to the character in question and gives a question of his own.

Vanissa ( Scorbunny ):

Ask Topic: Battles - Asks will be focused on pokemon battles and whether or not the character is interested in them

Henry ( Sobble ):

Ask Topic: Personal - Asks will be focused on questions regarding friends or family in an attempt to try and talk due to his shy nature.

Serena ( Wooloo ):

Ask Topic: Friendly - Asks will be light-hearted talk as Serena gleefully introduces herself or shows interest in the character in question.

Valerie ( Galarian Farfetch’d ):

Ask Topic: Battles ( Moves & Abilities ) - Asks will be focused on the strategies a character uses in pokemon battles, such as pokemon moves or abilities.

Louisa ( Sirfetch’d ):

Ask Topic: Battles ( Experience ) - Asks will be focused on the character’s experience with pokemon battles, such as what they’ve learned through the years..

Amity ( Greedent ):

Ask Topic: Food ( Cooking ) - Asks will be focused around food, particularly cooking and what the character in question enjoys.

Vida ( Dracozolt )

Ask Topic: Interaction - Asks will...well they can only be interaction based. Vida can’t exactly speak, so if you just want to be comforted by a weird fossil pokemon she’s there.

Meredith ( Zacian ):

Ask Topic: Questions - Asks will be centered around the nuances of the world having been asleep for thousands of years, missing out on what exactly is new in the world.

Kritanta ( Eternatus ):

Ask Topic: Interaction - Being a legendary that has barely interacted with others through the years, they’re the friendly sort who can’t exactly speak. If you wish for a 13-14 foot tall skeletal dragon pokemon who might cause a character to Dynamax / Gigantamax they’re open.

Shield Cast

Josephine ( Inteleon )

Ask Topic: Pokemon Abilities- Josephine always worries herself about wanting to become stronger, which usually leads to her asking how other pokemon learn and practice their abilities.

Gabriella ( Cinderace )

Ask Topic: Hobbies / Sports - Asks will be focused on a character’s hobbies and interests, usually sitting around sports-based topics.

Vittoria ( Thievul )

Ask Topic: Fashion / Valuables - As Vittoria enjoys looking her best, she may draw attention to items of some value or even fashion

Dara ( Grapploct )

Ask Topic: Battles ( Training ) - Something Dara is always curious about are the ways other pokemon train towards battling, especially depending on their strength.

Anya ( Toxtricity )

Ask Topic: Music - Characters who have some attraction to music can often catch Anya’s interest, pushing her to know if she could rock out with a character like them or know what they do for a living.

Maria ( Indeedee )

Ask Topic: Friendly - Being such a friendly pokemon, Maria will introduce herself for more friendly conversations and saying hello to the character.

Portia ( Cramorant )

Ask Topic: Food / Dumb - While Portia may not be the sharpest tool in the shed, she may have some questions that are something to think on even if they may be dumb at times.

Dominique ( Obstagoon )

Ask Topic: Provocation - With Dominique always enjoying the chance to mess with other pokemon through teasing and provoking them, she will sometimes make comments that will usually get a reaction from the character

Hazel ( Morpeko )

Ask Topic: Food ( General ) - Hazel’s split personality that fluctuates based on hunger makes her interactions often about whether or not she’s hungry. She can be pretty friendly and ask simple questions, but if food is nowhere to be found she might ger aggressive about it.

Emeline & Archer ( Dragapult & Dreepy )

Ask Topic: Child Care - For characters who have of their own, Emeline may be curious to know what sort of parent tips she should know about raising a kid.

Valencia ( Duraludon )

Ask Topic: Motivations- Valencia is often curious to know what the motivation a character may have towards their goals or interests. There is usually something that further pushes someone towards their goals.

Amity@Nick: It's almost impossible to see the Shiny Celebi behind the floating pile of various barriers, but her face is soon revealed once she drops the pile at Nick's feet. She dusts off her hands and nods proudly "There ya go! Greedents like berries, yeah? Maybe ya just need a bit of a snack ta get yourself back in tip top shape?"

“I suppose I’ve been a little peckish since I’ve not been able to leave the tent. Th-- *coughs into tissue*--thank you Celebi.

Nick stuffed a couple Oran berries in his mouth. He swallowed one, but an inconveniently timed sneeze caused him to use Spit Up. Realizing this was happening though, Nick had quickly faced away from Celebi to save face, and as a result, there was now a blue Oran splatter on his yellow tent wall.

“Ugh, sorry. I do that when I sneeze. *sniffle* It fails most of the time because i need something stockpiled to shoot, so it’s only really a problem while I’m eating.”

Nick blows his nose into the tissue that he had been holding, then disposed of the tissue on the tent floor and plucked a new one from the box beside him.

M!A: Recovering

Things To Do in Preuzien That Don’t Involve Killing People

because i needed to make this list eventually. with this post i hope to answer two of the questions that have been hanging over the region: what the heck manages to keep all these prussians from revolting? and in lotor’s preuzien, what the heck besides the potential glory of beating the hardest league in the world can draw someone to the region and keep them there? well, my friends, i now have a potential answer. here we go!

take a walk in the tiergarten. in the dark days of wilhelmine, berlin’s tiergarten was one of preuzien’s few safe zones, a place in which no killing of human or human-owned pokémon was allowed. today the park is much beloved as a place to run, bike, hang out with friends, catch wild pokémon not found anywhere else in the german regions and bond with your team amity square-style--except there’s no restriction saying only cute pokémon can participate! 

bask in the aura of legendaries at sanssouci and the house of immanuel kant. whether you go to potsdam or königsberg, if there’s a place in your heart for the power of legend, there’s something for you. 

sanssouci was the home of preuzien’s legendary queen friedrike the great, the one who merged with zygarde to create the legendary aquilaeon--and her former palace is still one of the places in the world where zygarde cells are the most populous. the great serpent loved their host very much, and so wanted to stay in a place where her presence could still be felt; after getting rescued from wilhelmine by lotor, the blue Z2 core that first allied with friedrike now chooses sanssouci as its home. visitors to sanssouci go there to feel a calming connection not only to their beloved queen, but also to the surrounding world--and those visiting in a post-wilhelmine prussia might even get a rare glimpse of friedrike’s trusted partner. those hoping to catch a legendary for their own will be disappointed, however: attempting a capture of Z2 or removing any zygarde cells from the grounds comes along with some heavy penalties.

immanuel kant’s home in königsberg, meanwhile, has the aura of uxie in abundance, as kant was a vessel of uxie. here you don’t connect to nature, but to the deep knowledge of the universe. it’s a great place to do your homework or clear your writers’ block, as the depth of the philosopher’s divine intellect makes you think more clearly and more quickly--you and your pokémon will see solutions to problems that you never thought of before, and gain a new understanding of things that have always bothered you but couldn’t put your finger on why.

adopt a prussian variant dragon. the junker class of preuzien made exactly one (1) positive contribution to the world, and it was in the creation of prussian-specific dragon breeds. in preuzien, thanks to the influence of aquilaeon’s aura, so many things have become dragons when originally they weren’t--and the dragons made and bred by prussia’s ruling class are second to none. not only are they INCREDIBLY COOL-LOOKING and great for battle, with abilities and moves that their regular counterparts could only ever dream of having, they’re also known for their unflinchingly loyal temperaments.

adopt species that were thought to be unviable, and learn hundreds of years-old secrets to unleashing their strength. there was a program in preuzien that stretches all the way back to the days of queen friedrike in the 1700s, geared specifically toward making re-viable a series of species that had been falling into disuse by militaries the world round. now, in the 21st century, the fruits of their ingenuity have certainly paid off. take a trip back in time with the last captive descendants of rare european pokémon, and make these living relics your very own! the program is a testament to the fact that with enough time and enough thought, any pokémon can be a champion.

unlock your pokémons’ true potential with armor. kalos is known for mega evolution, alola for its z-moves, galar for its dynamaxing, and preuzien for its armor. what does it do exactly? not only does it make you look like the battle-hardened warrior you are, it draws on your pokémons’ inner strength to give them more than one ability. whereas in most other parts of the world, armor is so expensive that only the military can afford it, armor is readily available to civilians in preuzien. get a suit and go ham!

meet some old gods up close. prussia didn’t get its name out of nowhere--it took on the name from the old baltic prussians that it conquered. for hundreds of years, the legendaries of those people were chained up and dragged out to be beaten by german prussians who wanted to test their strength, but now that lotor is in charge, a new age is dawning for them. now no longer prisoners, the legendaries worshiped by the old prussians have become ambassadors to the broader pokémon community, telling the story of the old prussian people and their culture so that their struggles, their triumphs, and their culture will always be remembered. plus, meeting them is a great chance to ask the things you’ve always wanted to ask the gods. 

visit the vibrant draconid community. preuzien features the largest draconid community outside hoenn, with thousands living in now-bustling neighborhoods and hundreds more traveling the region eager to share their culture. 

prussia, along with kalos, hoenn and alola, is now one of the possible host nations of the annual draconidfest, a festival featuring dancing, archery, dragonback riding shows, draconid arts and crafts, and lots and lots of delicious traditional food. though the festival was never previously held in preuzien due to safety concerns, 2020′s draconidfest is the first one held there--with lotor, a proud draconid, hosting it--and it will be the first of many to come. 

dragonback riding shows and draconid arts and crafts are also available in the region year-round. draconid merchants sell jewelry, hand-carved statues and elaborate tapestries in bazaars similar to those found in east asia. dragonback riding performances range from street shows to full-on pokémon contest-esque affairs held in stadiums, with each move either masterfully improvised or meticulously rehearsed. dragon riding to draconids is what horse riding is to mongolians, so their talent and their dedication is sure to amaze!

also, did i forget to mention the food? shed dragon skin soup and crackers, greedent meat so fat and succulent that the oil drips down your chin, grapploct tentacles done ceviche-style with a touch of east asian spice, and steelix shell rock candy all await the adventurous. draconids, like the chinese, take pride in their culinary masterpieces. even a casual stall out on the street is capable of crafting a copperajah-class or charizard-class concoction, no problem.

Pokemon of Galar Cast now viewable on blog page.

After weeks of struggling to work with Tumblr’s blog customization features to allow link embedding ( You have to use Ctrl + K as the prompt doesn’t work ), I have now created a page on the blog with all the characters proudly listed. For those wanting to view what characters are available for asks and the like, I hope this may help. I recommend checking these every once in a while if any more reference images may pop up.

[battlers-of-galar]

Amity is a pokemon who has long since loved all kinds of food, not really being picky with her choices. Her favorites often include Berries of various types, as well as Desserts and Sweets such as cake or cookies. She often stores berries in her tail for later use in order to indulge in them while on the go or share with her Morpeko friend. She preferred enjoying her meals while out and about rather than being cooped inside her house which sometimes leads to BBQ nights and other occasions where she cooked for others. Her interest in cooking took off the most when she learned of the many prizes in store for those who completed the Curry Dex, a challenge in Galar where pokemon fill a book with pictures of curry dishes. Grand prize winners who complete all 151 types of curry would get golden utensils which Amity would love to use and cook with curry. Ever since then she looks to make curry on most occasions due to being quite popular in Galar. Her biggest problem is making curry that both look good for the camera and tastes good as well, especially as she wants to eat most of it afterward. Though it is easy for Amity to lose track of her cooking and usually burn it without some help to keep her focused. Hopefully, she can find some helpful pokemon willing to push her to keep focused.

Character Artwork done by: @nataliesartprofile { Character belongs to ZiggyZackaryZigzagoon / battlers-of-galar }

Name: Amity Age: 30 Gender: Female Species: Greedent Type: Normal Pokemon Abilities: Cheek Pouch ( Restores HP as well when the Pokémon eats a Berry. ) Pokemon Moves: Body Slam | Counter | Covet | Stuff Cheeks Pokemon Level: 37 Likes: Cooking, Berries, Sweets ( Amity often enjoys cooking in her spare time, trying to complete her own little Curry Dex and earn the lustrous golden silverware. Aside from storing berries in her tail, Amity can easily store lots of berries in her cheeks for later eating as her teeth can handle the shells of many berries. Since most sweets Amity buys don’t have to be cooked by her, she easily treats them as a snack to eat when she doesn’t feel like cooking. ) Dislikes: Losing Berries, Pokemon Battles, Ruined Food ( Amity sometimes has problems keeping berries close by in her tail, not realizing they’re falling out until someone points them out. Amity hasn’t really gotten a great grasp on how to battle, especially with her speed not really being. One of the problems Amity often worries about is when food is ruined, whether it’s her cooking or someone else’s food she’s about to eat. )

Family: ( Mother ), ( Brother ) Occupation ( Job ): Cook Relationships: Serena ( Friendly Neighbor ), Hazel ( Cooking Buddy ), Portia ( Hungry Friend ) Personality: Cheerful, Slow-witted, Compulsive ( Amity is a very cheerful and friendly pokemon, often enjoying the chance to meet new pokemon and cook for others. One of Amity’s minor problems is usually being slow-witted, not really noticing the things around her until someone points it out or she is focused on it. Sometimes Amity can’t help herself when it comes to some foods, often being a bit Compulsive in her eating when possible. )

Design Facts of Characters

As all the characters on here were designed originally to be sold, I felt it might be a bit fun to mention some of the design decisions that came when purchasing them. Some have a bit more to them than just being designed around the pokemon’s conception, with others like Valerie having the weirdest of beginnings. If you’d like to learn a bit more about the character’s designs from a commission standpoint this is the best way to do so...or asking me directly too.

Sword Cast

Charles ( Grookey )

Was designed 4 months after Grookey’s announcement ( 6/11 ).

Was the artist’s second attempt at Grookey.

Was originally female, but the artist redesigned them to be male on my request.

Was designed the first-day Scorbunny was announced ( 2/27 ).

Due to when they were made, they’re the artist’s first attempt at Scorbunny.

Henry ( Sobble )

Was designed 4 months after Sobble’s announcement ( 6/11 ).

Due to when they were made, they’re the artist’s first attempt at Wooloo.

The one pokemon I struggled to resist getting, but temptations won out in the end.

Valerie ( Galarian Farfetch’d )

Was originally designed as a Kantonian Farfetch’d as far back as December 2018, but was converted into a Galarian due to the theme of an oversized leek and strong frame.

The Leek’s bulky style gives it an axe like look to it, especially with the “bladed” top to it.

Happens to be the artist’s 3rd attempt at Farfetch’d.

Louisa ( Sirfetch’d )

Was designed the first-day Sirfetch’d was officially announced ( 9/18 ).

The excitement of the announcement led the artist to make 4 Sirfettch’d back to back.

The order of weapons each Sirfetch’d in the batch had been Sword & Shield ( Louisa ), Axe & Buckler, Dual Blades, and Lance & Shield.

Due to when they were made, they’re the artist’s first attempt at Sirfetch’d.

Amity ( Greedent )

Was designed a few days after Sword and Shield were released. ( 11/18 ).

Due to when they were made, they’re the artist’s first attempt at Greedent.

Minor edits were made to fix the eyes.

Vida ( Dracozolt )

Kritanta ( Eternatus )

Was originally designed to be kept and used by the artist, but another Eternatus later and they offered the first one as an auction.

With the auctions Starting Bid of $65, the design was later posted with a flat sale of $70 ( $65 for Patrons ) and was later purchased by me.

The project file shows signs of giving them a proper name and a cloth covering, but was given to the newer Eternatus the artist owned.

The artist refused to do an Eternamax form, but loved the idea of having it be a 3 headed serpent with 2 arms.

Shield Cast

Josephine ( Inteleon )

Dara ( Grapploct )

Character Patch Notes ( 4 / 1 )

For the past few weeks, a large majority of characters have been getting revamps and new stories to go with their exclusion in the upcoming story. As a result, I decided to compile most of the surface level changes for those that wish to see just what has changed for the characters. Don’t worry, I did my best to make it as compact as possible.

Charles ( Grookey )

I took the liberty of rewriting Charles’s backstory to open him up as a Grookey who, under the passion of his father and brother, is a Grookey aspiring to partake in the gym challenge and practice his drumming skills. As well as being the one to often help cheer others up during a tough situation.

Pokemon Level:

19 ---> 20

Pokemon Moves:

Taunt ---> Knock Off

Likes:

Tree Swinging ---> Helping Others

Berries ---> Battle Planning

Dislikes:

Negative Pokemon ---> Tense Moments

Occupation ( Job ):

Pokemon Trainer ---> Gym Challenger

Personality:

Laid Back ---> Passionate

Vanissa ( Scorbunny )

I decided to focus on revamping a number of characters with Vanissa being one of the bigger ones due to the lacking feeling in her character. I decided on having her and Gabriella, her Cinderace Sister, have difficult terms together which could lead to story and interaction between the two. I also wish to avoid all of Vanissa’s character being the hot-headed one of the group.  

Pokemon Level:

19 ---> 22

Pokemon Moves:

Tackle ---> Agility

Likes:

Battle Planning ---> Showing her strength

Dislikes:

Judgemental Pokemon ---> Judgy Pokemon

Occupation ( Job ):

Pokemon Trainer ---> Gym Challenger

Personality:

Tomboyish ---> Stubborn

Henry ( Sobble )

Not much was needed to be changed for Henry seeing as how his character is the sort I would imagine, but I did revamp his bio to help shape as to why he’s still nervous at such an old age. I did feel him showing signs of wanting to change, yet being held back by fears that still haven’t left him, could make for a nice character that could have some interaction and such involving him.

Serena ( Wooloo )

Serena’s bio was pretty old, mainly being made when Wooloo was first introduced and had little to no changes outside of including the name of her younger brother. With that said, her backstory was changed to allow for how she met her current friends and the intrigue she has on wanting to see more of the region.

Likes:

Sweets ---> Sweets / Desserts

Rolling About ---> Exploring

Dislikes:

Sheared Wool → Aggressive Petting

Personality:

Gentle ---> Considerate

Valerie ( Galarian Farfetch’d )

I wanted to tone back on the idea that Valerie grew up in a strict household as the idea was hard for me to accept with Arthur getting more character. I decided instead to change it so that rather than her father’s actions being the thing she dislikes, it’s the fame her father has that bothers her. It’s not like she hates this fame, but the fact her training is being seen under Arthur annoys her.

Age:

19 ---> 22

Likes:

Leek Practice ---> Teaching Others

Dislikes:

Item Management ---> Unnecessary Attention

Occupation ( Job ):

Pokemon Trainer ---> Gym Challenger

Personality:

Tough ---> Honest

Hardworking ---> Venturesome

Rowdy ---> Reserved

Louisa ( Sirfetch’d )

I took the liberty of rewriting parts of Louisa to allow her to tie well into her daughter Valerie. The idea is that Louisa is quite invested in battling, but worries that she can’t enjoy battling forever once her leek withers. This has led to her taking the opportunity to try and teach others some of the proper ways of battling.

Age:

38 ---> 42

Likes:

Tough Opponents ---> Teaching Others

Dislikes:

Leek Tampering ---> Leek Trouble

Occupation ( Job ):

Gym Challenger

Volunteer ---> Poke Job Volunteer

Amity ( Greedent )

With Amity being one of the characters who doesn’t require too much depth her stuff pretty much stays the same outside of a few things. Otherwise, she’s the same Greedent you love.

Likes:

Sweets ---> Desserts / Sweets

Vida ( Dracozolt )

Not much was changed aside from giving Vida a bit of a relationship with Louisa, allowing Vida to become more prominent for the sword side of things.

Josephine ( Inteleon )

Lately, I found a lot of people really wanted to interact with Josephine in many unique ways. However, due to the overwhelming amount of interest, I realized Josephine might not be the easiest to present for interactions given how she is. As such, Josephine’s backstory and aspects have been rewritten to make her an Inteleon struggling to understand more about what she can do. As well as wanting to show she doesn’t have to be a strong pokemon to be a leader all the time. This backstory ties into one of the major criticisms I received where she had mostly water type moves while lacking important ones such as U-Turn or Acrobatics. I took this criticism as a new way to present Josephine since she might look and act cool, but deep down she’s not really the best. She can only really use Snipe Shot and has trouble with other moves.

Age:

28 - 27

Dislikes:

Cheating Opponents ---> Inteleon Problems

Camping ---> Feeling Incompetent

Occupation ( Job ):

Pokemon Trainer ---> Gym Challenger

Relationships:

Portia ( Hungry Bird ) ---> Dara ( Group Cook )

Personality:

Adaptable ---> Calm

Cooperative ---> Clear Headed

Gabriella ( Cinderace )

I decided with Gabriella to have her story focus on competition in Cinderace fashion, but have this also tie into her relationship with her own sister. The two of them often being at odds with each other is a great way for Vanissa to push wanting to show she can be more without evolving.

Age:

26 ---> 25

Likes:

Soccer ---> Sports

Spicy Curry ---> Competition

Dislikes:

Dynamax ---> Getting Blindsided

Occupation ( Job ):

Pokemon Trainer ---> Gym Challenger

Relationships:

Anya ( Rocking Friend ) ---> Dara ( Favorite Cook )

Personality:

Daring ---> Competitive

Vittoria ( Thievul )

I wanted to give a much better take on the young thief idea with a bit more story to her. As well as presenting the idea for why she steals more during a battle because of being impatient.

Age:

27 ---> 25

Likes:

Stealing Practice ---> Thieving Practice

Occupation ( Job ):

Pokemon Trainer ---> Gym Challenger

Relationships:

Amity ( Neighbor ) ---> Amity ( Slow-witted Neighbor )

Dara ( Grapploct )

Did a bit more work to present her as this odd team member who has trouble holding back, but is pretty cool to interact with when you aren’t being squeezed by her.

Age:

27 ---> 25

Dislikes:

Her Training Method ---> Holding Back

Occupation ( Job ):

Pokemon Trainer ---> Gym Challenger

Poke Job Volunteer

Relationships:

Louisa ( Decent Battler ) ---> Maria ( Volunteer Buddy )

Anya ( Toxtricity )

I wanted to try a better take at a character who is developed to be a loudmouth and give her a bit more depth. Now she is loudmouth that loves music and wants to battle to show it off.

Age:

27 ---> 25

Dislikes:

Music Haters → Being Silenced

Classic Music ---> Slow Music

Occupation ( Job ):

Pokemon Trainer ---> Gym Challenger

Dominique ( Obstagoon )

Dominique now has a bit more importance towards the overall story coming up and may or may not be related to a certain Zigzagoon. Though it is strange to see where her daughter went.

Pokemon Abilities:

Defiant ( When its stats are lowered its Attack increases. ) --->  Guts ( Boosts Attack if there is a status problem. )

Family:

( Brother ) --->  Maverick ( Brother )

Relationships:

Charles ( Piper’s friend ) ---> Portia ( Gullible Bird ),

Anya ( Music Partner ) ---> Anya ( Neighbor's Daughter )

Gabriella ( Neighbor ) ---> Amity ( Piper’s Cook )

Personality:

Tomboyish ---> Freewheeling

Hazel ( Morpeko )

As Hazel’s bio is already perfect as is, not much was needed to be done about making sure she was presented as a Morpeko struggling with her hunger.

Relationships:

Portia ( Hunger Management ) ---> Amity ( Hunger Management )

Vida ( Fossil Friend ) ---> Portia ( Cramorant Friend )

Emeline & Archer ( Dreepy & Dragapult )

I realized the mother and son dynamic that these two had makes it a little tricky for Emeline to interact with others on her own. However, someone gave me an idea that I felt was really useful to consider. What if instead of Archer being Emeline’s son, he was instead Emeline’s adopted son. This would give Emeline the dynamic of not really being a mother, but still trying to act like she is one. As a result, I rewrote Emeline from the ground up to include this idea. Also now she likes plushies

Likes:

Meat Foods ---> Plushies

Dislikes:

Destructive Pokemon ---> Feeling Alone

Family:

Archer ( Son ) ---> Archer ( Adopted Son )

Occupation ( Job ):

Pokemon Trainer ---> Gym Challenger
