#a bit farfetch'd

[kazumahashimoto]

zack IS so garchomp he is also very lucario. to me

[eezforme]

More ability forms! I love punk Pokemon!

Scrafty was my main lil guy in black/white.

Intimidate got a 'spiked' partial hood up and carries a club stolen from a cubone but probs could also have a farfetch'd's leek or tinkaton's hammer. Like the idea of et also acquiring cool lil punk cuffs. The blue was inspired by leopard geckos cuz them lil guys are cool af

Shed skin for a softer more chillaxed vibe bout em. Turned the hood into more of a loose cowl that jus dangles over ets body like loose skin. Won't even try to remove it's shedding skin until absolutely necessary

And moxie. Beat the heck up scarred and bruised but jus getting more confident with every win. Tried to get a bit of a 50s boxer feel with this one.. red glove hand patterns and patch shapes on ets legs. So fun

I thought intimidate would be my fav but in the end I favored moxie. The render for et jus came out so well. These are too dahm fun. Deciding between Shiftry or Galvantula next.

Thank you @n0rtist for this wonderful lil trend

do you know anything about the farfetch'd conservation efforts? can we say that farfetch'd are officially not endangered anymore?

i've read a little bit about them. i believe they were declared threatened back in 1999, though their numbers have been pretty inconsistent since then and there's talk of moving them back onto the endangered list.

their largest population is in johto, where laws forbidding the hunting of farfetch'd have helped mitigate their population decline, as has their introduction to the protected lands of the safari zone. unfortunately they're still pretty rare in kanto, and while it's technically illegal to hunt them (as well as nickit) in galar, there are plenty of reports of farfetch'd hunts every year.

your best shot at seeing a wild farfetch'd is actually in either sinnoh or unova, funnily enough. their migration routes take them across both regions, and occasionally an entire flock of them will pass through at once.

Hey dogman, idk if you answered this

Who, out of both DSAF and Dialtown, was your favourite to write and/or create?

It's very hard for me to pick favourites with my characters because I don't tend to give characters a lot of screen-time unless I find a character interesting or fun to write. You've caught me in a talkative mood, so warning, there's an onslaught of text coming!

DSaF: Dave was the most fun to write for, as I remember it. I mean, the guy is the walking personification of chaos and even when he's being constructive (eg, rigging robots to do insane stuff), it's usually in a destructive capacity. Dave will do LITERALLY ANYTHING but contribute to society in meaningful/valuable ways.

In terms of what character-writing I was most 'proud' of, I was also pretty happy with Dr Henry Miller, as a villain. Namely the research he embarked on, described in his logs in DSaF 3 (which the fandom evidently agreed with, as I got really strong feedback on those logs.)

One issue a lot of people (including myself) have with canon William Afton is that he's this kind of mad scientist character but his research doesn't really seem to be... idk, going anywhere? Other than using remnant (soul nectar?) to make kids possess robots, it's kind of a mystery how he got to this point he did from running a bad fast food restaurant. William gets fleshed out motivations in TSE and even then, it mainly revolves around his relationship with Henry Emily, iirc. It's actually pretty accurate to how real serial killers think, imo, but there's a pretty wide berth between this kind of serial killer and becoming a sci-fi fast-food mad scientist... So, I decided to try to bridge that gap.

DSaF Henry's logs actually mention where the idea for his research came from, namely the fact that he existed in a world with normal scientific rules just like ours and seemingly discovered something supernatural, and he approaches it like an amoral scientist would - trying to figure out how to figure out more about the fabric of reality using the newly discovered phenomenon of possession. The 'joy of creation' phrase people pulled from Golden Freddy's phone call in FNaF 1 is given context - Henry is trying to find out what's on the other side (and eventually, how existence itself formed.)

There's other aspects to his character that make him more interesting too, like the implication that his research is partially an excuse for him to act on an underlying sadism (with scenes implying that he inflicts damage on others than can't be justified as assisting with his research.) His background as a dissident/quack laughing-stock scientist (thanks to pushing his soul theory in a best-selling book, which is considered pseudoscience) BEFORE he embarked on his journey to become a fast food tycoon also makes it less farfetch'd that he'd be capable of y'know, harvesting human souls intentionally to continue his research?

I had more for the character on paper that people haven't seen but some of it wasn't revealed due to it feeling a bit too disturbing to publish. None of the contents would've been all that controversial, more just too tonally disturbing when written about in detail (like a omitted part from his backstory/lore post where he managed to pick up a hazy audio of his wife + son's crying from the radio of the car his wife/son drowned in and reacted with genuine elation upon realizing he'd discovered a new scientific phenomenon (as this was the first time Henry witnessed soul-possession.)) Yeah.

I don't feel much of a need to revisit Henry as a character because as a series villain, he was pretty thoroughly-written and he did his job effectively... And his fate was well earned! (He even got an epilogue short-story a few years back, further cementing his fate!)

Dialtown: From the characters/writing that the fandom has seen? Tough to say. I genuinely really like every DT character. Gingi and Mayor Mingus are two of my favourite characters to write for because they're both really insistent and react to adversity in a really comically indignant way. Mingus is more like Gingi than she cares to admit in very specific ways, which is the core hypocrisy of her character - she's one of the most abnormal things IN Dialtown, and spends the game on a quest opposing abnormality that she, herself, can't stand.

Many absolute rulers have debilitating physical and/or mental cruxes and despite that, usually have the final say on what is/isn't okay, often guided by arbitrary preferences. It's funny to remember all of the ancient kings and emperors who dictated how others should act, talk and even think, when very many of them themselves were anything except a good reflection of their own subjects! It's an irony I quite enjoy and leads to a fun character to write for!

My favourite DT writing is probably some of my Callum Crown speech drafts. I have a definite bias here since Crown's character is based on many figures I've encountered in my own reading (and his story relates to topics I enjoy reading about.) A lot of that is real nerd shit that wouldn't be interesting to 99.9% of DT fans (like a long conversation where Crown + Milt discuss a campaign speech Milt wrote for Crown and they bicker about if the wording/arguments used are truly honest.) Again, not super relevant to Dialtown-proper, but it explains a lot about why the world of DT ended up the way it did.

Realistically, the story of Dialtown itself is basically a weird little epilogue to a story that ended decades upon decades ago, centered around a bunch of small-town nobodies circling around the carcass of the last surviving main character of the old story.

I'm also very happy with Gingi's character partially because I know more about Gingi's past/future than you guys do. Gingi has such rotten memory that Gingi's backstory before DT's story begins is basically a complete mystery. Thanks to Gingi never getting close enough to any humans before laying its eggs, there's nobody in Gingi's life that can fill in the gaps. Companionship means so much to Gingi because prior to meeting The Gang, Gingi is aware of a massive and unknown block of time that's a complete mystery precisely because Gingi had nobody in its life. To Gingi, this time was basically akin to being non-sentient or dead, and Gingi would never go back.

While I was making DSaF, I drafted a ton of other stories on paper. I considered making most of them, but decided not to for various reasons, despite getting some solid feedback from collaborators. Bits of almost all of those project ideas made it into DT, with Gingi having traits from several other main characters I prototyped years and years ago. This includes where Gingi came from and what exactly Gingi is. I don't want to mislead people into thinking Gingi is more important than it is, like Gingi is the key to unlocking DT lore (I promise there's a LOT of aimless scuttling/devouring in Gingi's past and relatively little else!) BUT: Of everything from those old scrapped projects, Gingi is what I decided deserved to survive the most. And that has to count for something.

One day I'd love to make sequels to DT and perhaps explore some of the stuff I've described above, like why the hell the world of DT is the way it is or maybe where the hell Gingi spawned from. Thanks

Have you reviewed the Farfetch'd line?

Back in the early days of Pokemon, it was more common to see Pokemon based on specific Japanese references that English audiences wouldn't necessarily understand (not that this doesn't still happen, but they seem to acknowledge they're an international brand more these days).

In Farfetch'd's (that name looks so wrong as a possessive) case, it's based on the Japanese proverb "a duck comes bearing spring onions". Ducks are often cooked with onions, so the saying is referring to something that's an unlikely opportunity (the closest English version would probably be a "sitting duck").

The concept is fun, but being a Gen 1 design, it's also maybe a bit too straightforward—it's a duck with a leek, nothing less and nothing more. I do like the expression with those big ol' brows, and it's perfectly fine-looking, but it feels like it could've been pushed more. (I'm kind of surprised it didn't have leek elements built into it and be part grass-type, given that it already has the leak shape built into its head feathers.) It always seemed like the perfect kind of Pokemon to evolve, and apparently GameFreak agreed... kind of.

My major beef with Galarian Farfetch'd is that it exists in the first place. That sounds harsh, but what I mean is that regional-only evolutions are fine when they only make sense coming off a regional with a different concept. For example, Cursola wouldn't make sense when evolving from regular Corsola because the bleached coral theme would come out of nowhere; Obstagoon wouldn't make sense evolving from regular Linoone because it has no reason to turn into Gene Simmons out of nowhere, etc etc.

But with G. Farfetch'd? It's not really all that different from regular Farfetch'd at all, and I definitely don't think Sirfetch'd needed to evolve from a regional; it would've made just as much sense evolving from Kantonian Farfetch'd. So all G. Farfetch'd does is make regular Farfetch'd feel even more obsolete than it already did.

Now, I will say that visually, I do prefer G. Farfetch'd's design. The stupidly huge leek is super fun and brings a lot more to the table conceptually when combined with its extra serious expression and increased strength (especially because it's apparently based on how leeks are bigger in England than Japan). The darker colors are also nice, and it's a nice little touch that the head feathers switch orientation. It's a good improvement over the original, just once again frustrating from a practicality standpoint.

I should also mention really quick that originally, Farfetch'd had this scrapped evo called Madame. I'm... not a big fan, to be honest. I don't know if it's meant to have an SM thing going on with it or if it's just meant to be masquerade-themed, but either way that element comes out of nowhere and the main focus of Farfetch'd, the leek, is too de-emphasized. The feather detailing also feels like too much.

Pre-evo beefs aside, I do really like Sirfetch'd as a design. The concept of just taking the leek and making it into a sword and shield is extremely fun and straightforward, and I like the little details like the sheer length of the sword, the handle being the unpeeled base, and the leaves being the shield. The white body works well with the white parts of the plant and gives it a "white knight" kind of vibe, which is really emphasized by its super stocky body. Conceptually it makes logical sense as an evo; visually, it's fun and easy to understand. No complaints here.

As a whole: Farfetch'd is fine but feels like it could've been pushed more conceptually. G. Farfetch'd has an improved concept and design, but also didn't really need to exist and robs original Farfetch'd of an evo. Regardless, the evo itself is a great design with a solid concept.

FIXING SHADOWLANDS: WHAT IF DENATHRIUS WAS THE ACTUAL BBEG OF THE EXPANSION INSTEAD OF ZOVAAL

Everyone already knows that Shadowlands sucks ass. And I say this as a certified Shadowlands enjoyer. I am one of the few people that i've ever seen publicaly state that they legitimately loved playing through the expansion. Everyone also knows that The Jailer = trash. Zovaal is a uncharismatic, tasteless, tactless aberration spawned from the creative minds of an overinspired team of writers that frequently bit waaaaay too much more that they could chew, adding more crazy shit into a lore that was fresh from BFA, which was crazy and questionable by itself. Everyone also agrees that Denathrius is a much better character, and is remembered as one of the few good things in that expansion's story.

Therefore, i come to thee with my ideas of how the expansion should have been, and how the story and the progression of the content would make more sense to me. I am not gonna go too deep into how these changes would affect the mechanical side of the game (gameplay systems, in game activities etc.) because I am not a game designer. Just focusing on lore here.

Well, just to get it out of the way. I would not TOUCH. OLD. LORE. I don't know what the fuck they were thinking when they decided to retcon the fuck out of ARTHAS AND WARCRAFT 3 to make the Jailer as the mastermind behind it all. Like, that's just insane. Arthas one and only appearance in this expansion should've been that cinematic with Uther and Devos and that's it.

Anyways, in this version Sylvanas would still have abandoned the Horde, killed Saurfang, broken the Helm of Domination, and everything that took place in the cinematics with Devos and Uther throwing Arthas in the Maw of the story everything up until BFA would remain unchanged. Part of this exercise is focusing only on Shadowlands, and while BFA's story and that whole N'Zoth stuff was... certainly a choice, it honestly wasn't THAT bad, and ppl wouldn't bat an eye if Shadowlands payed off and delivered all that BFA promised.

I also wouldn't change the inactive arbiter plot and the anima drought. The leveling campaign and 9.0 would suffer some major alterations.

To me, one of the main problems with the expansion is Denathrius being dealt with way too soon. So I suggest pivoting to another crisis happening in the Shadowlands:

The Drusts in Ardenweald.

We focus on the invasion of the Drusts in Ardenweald, where our 9.0 raid would be located. The leveling quests would be altered, in fact, we could put the plot points fo the Night Fae covenant campaign, such as the fall of Ara'lon, to the leveling campaign, have it switch places with Revendreth or something.

However doing so bring us to the first road block:

Without Nathria and Denatrhius as the 9.0 main antagonists, how do we resolve the drought and all the anima being sent to the Maw? We need to justify putting

I have an answer:

THROS, THE BLIGHTED LANDS! What if Gorak Tul and Gorak Zhar were working with the Jailer? What if part of all that anima the corrupt Venthyr were funneling to the Maw was going to the Drusts?

"But wait, isn't Thros a place in Azeroth? How can it be in the Maw?" Well, Thros is a foreign dimension, and if they were able to invade Ardenweald, it wouldn't be farfetch'd if they were being helped by someone as powerful as The Jailer to be able to walk around the Maw and the realm of death easily. I mean, I think at this point in the story we have encountered monsters of the Maw roaming about in Shadowlands, or at least some derivative of them.

Denathrius would still be built up as an antagonist in the leveling campaign, but instead of him being the one causing the drought he would be neutral, and Renathal would sic the player onto him just because, well, he doesn't like the guy. Denathrius would just be locked in his castle, being indifferent to the chaos happening, which would justify the rebelions against him. The changes would be appearing in the Covenant campaigns, and the story as a whole: The 9.0 covenant campaign for the Venthyr would have the player and the convenant collecting intel for the cause, uncovering the corruption happening with the vampires and stuff, and we wouldn't be going into the castle yet.

The raid would have 10 bosses, and half of them would be in Ardenweald, like, the zone, and the rest would be in Thros itself. In the Ardenweald half we would face corrupted members of the Night Hunt, one of those tall lanky dudes, a Drust general, and the fifth boss, the one before going into Thros, would be Ara'lon himself and his fight would involve the seeds, like the ones from his cinematic. As soon as we enter Thros we'd face Gorak Zhar and the final boss we would get aid from the Winter Queen against be Gorak Tul, the big boy himself.

The raid would justify the sheer ease Sylvanas had to snatch the Winter Queen's emblem and all that stuff with Tyrande and Elune, provided we justify it. How, that's for the team of writers to figure out.

9.1 - LET'S GO TO KORTHIA.

This is where this starts to get juicy. We save the Primus, we learn about the existance of Dreadlords here, everything with Korthia remains unchanged (reminder that i'm only talking about story here), and then, finally, we go to the Sepulcher of Domination, which also remains mostly unchanged. We wouldn't see Ner'zhul nor Kel'thuzad, and Kaelthas would be down here with Garrosh. Anyway, we go and beat the shit out of Sylvanas but she is NOT the final boss of this raid, she is the penultimate because the final boss of Sanctum would be:

The Jailer himself. Yes, we would be facing the supposed BBEG right now in 9.1. We defeat him before he can claim the Arbiter's sigil and then we would have a little surprise:

The cutscene that plays when we defeat him in Normal and Heroic would be the same as the canon one we have, where he would turn into a robot and wither away. However, that ending would not be canon. The canon ending comes in the Mythic difficulty, where in the mythic only phase we learn that what we thought to be the the Jailer is none other than:

MAL'GANIS BABYYYYYYY! As it turns out, the person we thought to be the Jailer and who we defeated after sooooooooo many wipes is Mal'Ganis!

To be fair, it can be any dreadlord, but I'd throw Mal'ganis here because 1) we need a big name so the twist can land and be super impactful and 2) Mal'ganis appears in the campaigns and is a raid boss on sepulcher anyway. What matters is, as I said, he Zovaal has been a dreadlord all this fucking time. And what are the dreadlords? They are called NATHREZIM! And who do the Nathrezim serve if not the master of Castle Nathria, the one and only: SIRE DENATHRIUS, who shows up, reveals himself, puts Sylvanas in a coma, takes the fifth sigil himself and bamfs away with Anduin, but not before killing Mal'Ganis for good this time.

9.2: Danny boy is crazy.

He goes to Castle Nathria and ravages the place around it and do just like Garrosh did to this panda zone, and we could have a maw-scarred Revendreth or something, maybe that light attacking Sinfall interferes. The bulk of the 9.2 story would focus again in covenant specific campaigns:

Kyrians have to deal with the Mawsworn and Uther, pushing Devos away (Yes, Devos. I fucking hated how she had all that build up throwing Arthas in the Maw and stuff just to be thrown as a meager dungeon boss and die uncerimoniously while for some goddamn reason her pupil, some random bitch without a drop of charisma, becomes the Kyrian's main antagonist. I think her name is Lysonia or something, yeah she should've been the Dungeon boss).

The Necrolords restitute the Primus and his power and Vashj, Emeni, Braka, and someone from the house of Plagues are promoted as Margraves. Marileth maybe cut for the job? I don't know. What I know is, it's bullshit to me that the House of Constructs wasn't a Dungeon. It should've been one with Gharmal as the final boss, but alas.

The Night Fae deals with all that Tyrande stuff and the Venthyr's campaign would revolve entirely around breaking into the castle. These campaigns could interface with each other so all the players could experience the lore.

Now, before we go further, I feel like I should explain Denathrius plan and everything:

When the four leaders had Zovaal arrested, it was because he really was a corrupted arbiter and he really wanted to fuck shit up and remake the cycle of life and death. And you guys probably remember Denathrius attitude was like "Dude! You gots to let me know!" So yeah, Zovaal was thrown into the Maw.

Denathrius then went down to the Maw to talk to Zovaal, but when he got there he was shocked with the raw power and potential from that cursed place. Instead of negotiating with Zovaal, he engages in a conflict and kills him, and takes the Maw's power for himself.

He then starts the manipulation and to execute his plan all the way back in Legion. Of course he wouldn't be the mastermind of everything ever like they did in the canon with the Jailer, (again, I wouldn't touch anything before Legion with a ten foot pole). His plan starts while we are leaving WoD and going to Legion:

He was the one who knocked out the arbiter with Argus, he was the one who made a deal with Muezahla to put Sylvanas as the Horde's Warchief. All of this is happening because he is pulling the strings while Mal'ganis, his servant, is posing as the Jailer. Does that mean everytime a dreadlord ever appeared in the Lore it was Denathrius? Yeah, but like, it's probably easy to figure out reasons why the Dreadlords are working with the Legion. I mean, Revendreth is the place where all the anima is harvested, the more people die the more anima.

The Arbiter being disabled while he is in control of the maw would also justify Revendreth still having power and all that anima. They could be harvesting the souls like Soulrender was doing to Garrosh. He kidnaps the Primus, orchestrates the downfall of the Maldraxxus houses and the conflict between them and Bastion, etc.

"But why did he do all that? What's his motivation?" It's quite simple actually, Denathrius is a very simple villain. He doesn't want to RESET THE UNIVERSE BECAUSE THE CYCLE IS FLAWED AND THERE IS A BIGGER THREAT COMING BECAUSE HE IS ACTUALLY A MISUNDERSTOOD GUY DOING BAD THINGS FOR THE GREATER GOOD, SUPPOSEDLY"

He wants the power. That's it. Denathrius is a stereotypical narcissistic vampire chud who only cares about himself and sees the rest of the world as nothing more than maggots whose only purpose in life is to kiss his feet. He doesn't need any motivation other than the desire of seeing the entire Shadowlands, nay, the entire cosmos bending the knees to his greatness. Clean, cut, concise.

And finally, for 9.2, we'd be raiding Castle Nathria. The raid would play out the same way except for the fight against the Hungering Destroyer because it's too late into the expansion for Destroyers to be relevant as raid bosses in my opinion. We would kill Devos, Vyraz and the last boss would be The Boy King, Anduin Wrynn, weilding Remornia instead of Frostmourne. In this raid, the Primus would try to face Denny solo, and so he would be the second to last boss before Anduin.

At the end of the Raid, Denathrius would be able to flee to Zereth Mortis and the 9.3 patch would go smoothly with Zereth Mortis as the zone and the campaign would remain the same. Except maybe for Pelagos as the new arbiter cause wtf was that, and the Helm of Domination is restored to what it was before, because a Lich King is still needed in Azeroth to contain the Scourge. We kick Denathrius's ass in Sepulcher and we stick him into the sword, or idk he just dies. Also, one thing I dislike is Pelagos stating that he wont send anyone to the maw ever as arbiter, which like ????????????? Sir, that's your job? Instead of putting a Kyrian, the most biased bitches in this realm, as the Arbiter, we could just revive the one we have already and bring stuff back to how it was.

And then, Shadowlands cements itself as a pretty fine transitional expansion that brings Sylvanas closure and sets Anduin up for his role in the future.

10 years later, we have the events of Dragonflight and then TWW.

Where do farfetch’d get their leek stalk? Is it a special leek that never wilts, or do they have to find a new one every few days? And why a leek?

@ladyzee-oddityhunter

I'm glad you asked! Farfetch'd are actually one of the pokemon I specialize in. I'll try to simplify this all down into just a single relatively short post, but I'll link my papers and studies at the end if anyone's interested in those.

Farfetch'd are extremely adept foragers, and have been known to use a variety of both wild and cultivated leeks. These can either be found in the wild or taken from a store, but chances are they'll spend hours picking out the 'right' one either way. This used to actually be a bit of an issue for farmers who grew leeks, since farfetch'd would dig up their fields trying to find what they consider to be the best of the bunch. This heavily contributed to the near extinction of farfetch'd in Japan, since they could easily be branded a pest, and were so plentiful that no hunting regulations prevented people from shooting them. However, farfetch'd have also been known to display agricultural knowledge themselves, and have been documented as caring for wild leeks. They're hard pokemon to monitor in the wild, so not a lot of research has been done into this.

Farfetch'd use root vegetables instead of a regular wooden stick or more traditional club because the leek serves several functions aside from just being a weapon; it's also used as nesting material, emergency food, and a way to impress mates, both for males and females.

The leek a farfetch'd claims will not rot unless it's abandoned, lost, etc. It's also much tougher than it would be otherwise, allowing for farfetch'd to use its signature attack style. While we don't have solid proof as to why this happens, the current leading theory is that, in layman's terms, the same energy you'll see a pokemon expelling during battle is constantly being siphoned into farfetch'd's tool of choice, which essentially keeps it alive as if it were still in the ground. The leek, for that moment, becomes an extension of the farfetch'd, not just a tool. This is best exemplified with Galarian farfetch'd; they can't evolve without a leek in their possession, and when they do evolve, the leek changes alongside them.

This is one of the many reasons why I think Kantonian farfetch'd should be reclassified as a grass/flying type, and part of why I believe they have a secondary evolution that we just aren't aware of.

That said, a farfetch'd's leek can still break or be separated from them, and they will have to replace it in that case. This is natural, and will likely happen 2-3 times a year, more if a farfetch'd battles extremely frequently. If you have one, remember that being without a leek does make them feel vulnerable, and will cause massive stress; get them a replacement asap, and let them pick it out if possible. Do not send an unarmed farfetch'd into battle if you can help it; they'll perform poorly and mostly be focused on trying to get away.

Here's a list of my papers on farfetch'd, if anyone would like to read through them. They're all written originally in Japanese, but the first 3 have English translations. I'm still working on translating the others. You can try auto translate on those ones if you'd like. I'm sort of doxxing my last name by putting these out there, but whatever.

POKEMON AU because I can and spent a lot of time on it

Tyler: Taylor nicknamed all his pokemon because he didn't want too Machop -> Machamp: Rex Shellder -> Cloyster: Pearl Onix: Titan Misdreavus -> Mismagius: Spooky Gligar: Aero Slugma -> Marcargo: Cinder

Ashlyn leaned back against the seat of the train. Her Azumarill, Blueberry, was nuzzled comfortably on her lap, lulled to sleep by the rhythmic chugging of the train over the tracks. She looked out at the passing scenery – verdant fields and wild Pokémon frolicking freely- it was a peaceful scene that was suddenly ruined. “Oh my god! Ponyta and Rapidash!” Taylor pressed her face up against the glass.

Her eyes were wide with excitement as she pointed at the fiery Pokémon galloping majestically across the open landscape. "Such power, such grace!" she exclaimed, her voice filled with genuine admiration.

“Shut up Taylor,” Her twin brother, Tyler grumbled from beside her.

Taylor responded by sticking her tongue out at him, "Oh come on, Ty! Lighten up a bit. We're on an adventure!" Her words were punctuated with a wild gesture referring to the world outside their window.

Tyler merely rolled his eyes and returned to his nap. Aiden got into Ashlyn’s face. “Are you excited to see the big city?” “Get out of my face,” She shoved her hand in his face and pushed him away from her.

Aiden stumbled back, a grin still lingering on his lips despite Ashlyn's rebuff. He adjusted his glasses and laughed, "Alright, alright, I get it! Personal space, I respect that." He then moved over to join Taylor by the window, equally captivated by the sight of the fiery Pokémon racing alongside their train. Logan looked up at his book, “What gym is in Savannah?” He asked more so Tyler. The ladder looked up before drifting back off to sleep, not answering Logan’s question.

Logan frowned slightly at Tyler's lack of response but shrugged and returned to his book. “It’s the Electric Type gym,” Ashlyn answered, glancing over at Logan. “Ben are you gonna battle the gym leader this time?” Taylor looked over with a grin. The mute boy looked up at her and shook his head. Taylor’s grin didn't falter. "Well, your loss, Ben! Savannah's gym leader is supposed to be one of the toughest around.” Ashlyn nodded in agreement, her thoughts drifting to the upcoming challenge. Blueberry stirred on her lap, opening one eye lazily. “Ashlyn, the conductor is coming by, put the pokemon away,” Taylor hissed quietly.

Ashlyn gently nudged Blueberry, whispering for her to return to her Poké Ball. With a soft glow, the Azumarill disappeared, and Ashlyn clipped the ball back onto her belt. As the conductor approached, checking tickets and ensuring everything was in order, the friends settled down, their excitement momentarily subdued by the adult walking past. “Hey! Blonde kid, sit down,” She told Aiden.

Aiden, who had been bouncing slightly on the balls of his feet, gave the conductor a sheepish smile and quickly sat down next to Ashlyn. The conductor nodded sternly before moving on, her eyes scanning the rest of the passengers with practiced ease.

Once she was out of earshot, Aiden leaned in towards Ashlyn, his voice dropping to a conspiratorial whisper. "So, what's the plan when we get there? Straight to the gym or do we explore the city first?"

Ashlyn pondered for a moment, her fingers tapping rhythmically against her thigh. "I think it'd be smart to scout out the gym first, get an idea of the level of the trainers and the gym leader’s level and pokemon,” she mused, her eyes lighting up with the thrill of strategy. "But, exploring Savannah wouldn’t hurt either; it could be a good way to unwind before the battle."

Aiden nodded in agreement, his grin widening. "Sounds like a perfect plan! Plus, I heard there's a market where local trainers trade rare battle items!” “Okay calm down, it’s not that exciting,” Tyler opened his eyes with a glare at Aiden.

Ben, still silent, gave a small nod, his own excitement about the city's offerings visible only to those who knew him well. His dark eyes flickered with interest at the mention of the market, perhaps considering it a good place to gather resources that could be valuable in upcoming battles.

"Actually, it might be good for our pokemon to get some battle items to make them stronger!” Taylor wrapped her arm around her brother’s shoulders. Logan looked up from his book, “Plus in the tall grass outside the city, there’s shellos, we both need that for our pokedexs,” Logan told Taylor.

Taylor's face lit up at the suggestion, her adventurous spirit clearly piqued by the possibility of catching a new Pokémon. "That settles it then! First, we explore the city and hit the market, and then we head out to catch some Shellos," she declared enthusiastically.

Ashlyn shook her head, appreciating Taylor's infectious energy.

it took a whopping 14704 encounters but mobile the shiny magnemite finally decided to stop being shy and graced me with their presence!!! (i honestly have no idea why i named them mobile. it just Fit, somehow.)

GAHHH this shiny hunt took such a long time!!! single system shiny hunts are no joke, especially in the 1/8192 games. but!!! the next member of my silver team quest is HERE and i am overjoyed. this little one was totally worth it! silver evolves his magnemite one (1) time, so mobile is going to be a magneton in the very near future :)

i did random encounters for this hunt, and it had a fun lil set-up process - which i will chat about under this cut!

OK SO. since i was doing random encounters on this route, i had the potential to phase on a shiny rattata, raticate, farfetch'd, miltank, tauros, or snubbull. to mitigate this a lil bit, i decided to catch a mareep (which i evolved into a flaaffy) with the static ability. with sparkles the flaaffy leading my party, static boosted my encounter rate for electric type pokemon! this made magnemite more likely to appear vs everyone else.

in addition to using static, i also did the repel trick. by keeping sparkles in the first slot of my team and at level 15, whenever i popped a repel, pokemon under level 15 would stay away from me - namely, miltank, tauros, and snubbull. since magnemites, rattatas, raticates and farfetch'ds are all level 16 here, i could still phase on four other pokemon, though. (and, as you may know, i totally did. thank god it only happened once HAHA.)

FINALLY, i ALSO gave sparkles a smoke ball (which i traded over from my copy of soulsilver) so that he could run away from battles without needing to worry about outspeeding the wild pokemon - especially since he was stuck at level 15 in order for the repel trick to work. this sped up the encounter process by... A LOT!!!

here's sparkles in all his shiny hunting glory:

big shoutout to him for bringing mobile home... it's always really fun to tailor the shiny hunting process like this, as nerve-wracking as random encounter hunts can be!

next up is PROBABLY going to be a full odds egg hunt for none other than a shiny sneasel! i'm really looking forward to that one, too! :D

Day 5: Rememberance/Favorite Supporting Digi

Pixiemon and his 'boot camp'.

This was a hard one for me to choose. Growing up, I probably would have said Whamon or Leomon. I could've even said the warm caretaker, Elecmon, of Primary Village/the Village of Beginnings. Upon reflection, I feel like Pixiemon deserves it the most.

Pixiemon/Piccolomon put the kids through a Karate-Kid style training and forced Tai to realize how much of an fool he was. He was the mentor that Gennai wasn't. While Gennai sent the Chosen on quests, Pixiemon is the one that forced them to reflect and think.

This is a bit of a gag fanart, but honestly, I don't think it's too farfetch'd if Pixiemon smacked Tai a few times to get his lesson through to him.

[bonnieisaway]

hi guys i have autism and i decided i need to make pokemon teams for s7 characters. my credentials: ive been playing pokemon since i was 7. long ish post ahead

this is Seven's team. they're mostly normal types because he just kind of has normal type aura, and mostly unevolved because most of the team comes from his days on chicken island. a lot of pokemon with fluffy/poofy fur that he likes to take care of. the farfetch'd is just cause it has a funny sword. the gallade is from before he ever came to chicken island. it's been with him since before he could remember.

(i think the eevee holds an everstone but the team maker wouldnt let me put one on it. i think the rest of them could evolve though. maybe eevee can gigantamax? it's really fitting i think)

this is Thirteen's team. the Altaria specifically is supposed to be the equivalent of the pet bird from the show. psychic types make the most sense to me because they feel like the closest thing to qi. a lot of these are "feminine" pokemon because femininity is a big part of thirteen's story. it's part of what drives her to become stronger and i think she'd have a lot of feminine/woman looking pokemon that are strong not because or despite the fact that theyre a woman, just because they are.

Eleven's team. I guess it's a bit blatant to put a bunch of poison/dark types on a "villain"'s team? but they feel very fitting of her. Salandits can only evolve into Salazzle when they're female, Zoroarks have their shapeshifting ability, Absols can sense incoming danger ... and Malamar just feels very her. I think she affords herself still one 'cutesy' pokemon that's still her. The girl she wanted to be. That's why Leafeon is there.

Manjusaka .. I'm affording everyone still actively in the Shadow Killers atleast one legendary/mythical/ultra beast solely because I could not make Manjusaka a team and not put Nihilego on it. A lot of 'feminine' pokemon again, and a lot more grass than poison types than I wanted .. but I still think it's fitting. Femininity to Manjusaka is more like a mask or a tool she uses. Eleven uses her femininity to lure you in, and then she is stronger "despite" it. Manjusaka uses it to keep you there, and slowly whittles you away when you don't realize it. She is much stronger than she lets on, because that's not the outward appearance she wants to give.

and then Redtooth .. Redtooth's is less about type and more about just like.. primal beasts like he is. Crobat is his bestest friend ever because Crobats are also blood suckers! ("Crobat flies swiftly toward its prey and sinks its fangs into the nape of its target’s neck." - Sword pokedex)

last one (for now) is Blackbird... omg who's surprised it's all flying types. I really wanted to break my rule on legendaries for this one because WOW there are alot of dark themed flying legendaries!!! the galarian bird trio and yvetal and giritina are still crying out my name as i write this. darkrai feels the most fitting though. i didn't want to choose yveltal or giritina because they're more "desutrction" pokemon and Blackbird sees himself as a hero. I think he got most of his pokemon during his time with the flying bird sect.

ok thats all for now. ask me for more if u want. i still havent seen s5 tho

This is my Miku pokemon trainer tier list

For this tier list its both my favorites and what i consider a very good miku design

Of course all of them are good miku designs but some shine above the rest

S tier- my absolute favorites Bug miku is so classy, so well thought out, and i think the brown looks amazing with her teal. Shes everything A close tie with bug miku is Ice miku her hair is everything to me im in complete love with this sharp miku. Water Miku is basic but that's all she needs in lovely simplicity, truly feeling like Miku in this world as a water trainer especially with her tan lines from her original outfit it feels like this is her off time from being an idol! Steel Miku had my heart as soon as I saw her with Jirachi. Which was my favorite pokemon when I was a child [it was prior before i even had any pokemon games of my own and only watched the movies] The colors, the motif of star, the hat and the hair its all wonderful to me!

A tier- Amazingly done concepts and totally miku! Rock Miku's dress and veil is lovely, i love they incorporated the veil as mock pigtails. If this was the verison of her without the dress then she would have been in S tier. I love the jester look but thats my own personal preference. She also reminds me of diance with the dress.

Flying Miku is gorgeous, the wispy hair, the translucent areas to mimic clouds and mist. It's an amazing concept and wonderfully executed design! Fairy miku i know is everyones favorite and it's obvious to see why, shes adorable and cute and I too would love to draw her. She has that appeal to her down to a T. Fighting Miku is something i've been waiting for this whole time. Of course no way they could do a pokemon collab with miku and not include farfetch'd! It's a sleek and simple design that takes traits of the original miku's outfit and tweaks them. Though she does kind of remind me of maka from soul eater just a small bit.

B tier- Great concepts! Electric Miku's lightening pigtails are so cute she looks like a little adventure/farmer of currents. She stands on her own as a design and as a tie to miku. Poison type Miku i would have done the same doing mucky/slime twintails though i probably wouldn't have thought to use the new alolan muk which is a very good look and helps add in the colors. It's a great design and while i wouldve put her in A tier some of her design elements hold me off. This is a top tier character design though trust me Dark Miku, i love she came with obstagoon. Though at first i couldnt even tell if miku had pigtails in the artwork. This reminds me just of a nice miku for a cover of an existing song which is not bad it's just how it feels. Normal type miku has good colors, shes paired with an active singing pokemon and while it's simple I think it conveys miku well enough. Though she keeps reminding me of the oversaturated stereotype of early 90s fashion. now on Ghost miku, shes higher than i'd actually put her but for her concept and simplicity of staying to miku but as a glitched out ghost version of her i do have to give props to that even if i find it more on the plain side. I think they succeeded in what was necessary even though this portrays miku AS the ghost instead of just a ghost trainer. ....honestly now that i type my words i feel like i was right and shouldve stuck with her in C tier.

C tier- too basic for my tastes yet still well done Grass miku is cute and all but if you told me she was unrelated to miku, i could believe you. Just that it'd be a fandom joke to call her 'green miku'

Fire miku, reminds me all too much of the anniversary miku song and im sure thats where they got part of the insipration from it but it doesnt really do much for me combined with the fire aspect and how her hair is shaped. I know its to mimic the pokemon shes with its just personal taste on that one. The silhoutte is good.

Ground type miku i had to keep looking up because i forget what shes supposed to be numerous times. Same case with grass miku, i could see someone telling me shes from x thing and unrelated to miku. I'm just not a fan of the design and colors but it's well done. I know when something is just my subjective taste rather than poorly done.

Dragon miku while i'm not the biggest fan of all the cowlicks going down the twintails i know it's purpose is there to mimic the spiked tail of a traditional dragon and i wouldn't want them removed. I think i especially just don't like the tacked on half shawl cape it feels disjointed. Yet i find its a nice concept they did both an almost knight look for her as dragon as always with the concept of knights and dragons battling. Now the knight trainer is battling with the dragon as comrades.

Psychic type miku- i think they started with the least interesting and noteworthy one honestly. It just looks, kind of uninspired but thats rude to say. I know shes here to fufill the concept of miku as a trainer in pokemon and well it just looks like she's her own trainer class that'd have multiple running around looking the same instead of a stand out like a rival or a gym leader in game.

[discorainycomputer]

I was bored at uni one day so decided to make hypothetical pokemon teams for the Touden party. Some are based on vibes, some are references to the characters themselves. Explanations below, at some places I go into spoiler territory so read at your own risk. I dont know how to spoilertag so im just gonna paste a lot of "/" so people have to click read more.

Laios: In general a very monster focused team. Initially i considered filling his entire team with dragons, but found that idea pretty boring. Hydreigon is a perfect fit for Laios. It fits both his love of dragons, multiheaded monsters, and it fits one of his titles at the end of the story: Laios of the Three heads. Escavalier is a reference to the living armor, which i think is the coolest monster in the entire series. Thats not enough to have it as a team member though, so the real reason i placed it on Laios' theme is that its Kensuke. Pyroar is The Winged Lion, as Laios is the only person in the story who truly understands it. Nidoking is a monster, but it also has king in its name. Lycanrock (day) is a reference to his childhood dogs. Finally Lickylicky references his endless apetite. I chose Lickylicky over snorlax, because Lickylicky is more niche in its appeal, and Laios is the type of person who likes things other would say "Thats stupid" to.

Marcille: I struggled a bit with this team, but in general i wanted to focus on her Elf identity, which mean some more feminine pokemon. However i also wanted to focus on her ancient magic and magical capabilities. I think Gardevoir is a perfect fit for her. Its a very caring pokemon, and its a very powerful psychic type. I added Cradily because i felt it fit her a lot. Its an ancient pokemon, and its a plant. You could see this as fitting with her staff and such, but all in all i just thought it really fit Marcille a lot. Next is Trevenant, which is a reference to her staff, Ambrosia. Its also a ghost type pokemon and has a darker design than just a tree, so i felt it was a nice tie in to her having darker/ancient magic than she lets on at first. Meowstic is a pokemon i put in simply for the vibes, I feel it fits her a lot. No other reason really. Gothitelle is here to reference her Dungeon Lord outfit, but i also think its a pokemon she would like. At last Spiritomb. This is a reference to her ancient magic, and i feel no other pokemon could represent an old unknown horror quite as well as Spiritomb.

Senshi: I wanted to really include Senshis key characteristics here, but really ended up with a lot of food pokemon. Mudsbray is a reference to Anne, both the horse and the Kelpie. Torterra is a pokemon i think senshi would like. I initially wanted to use Golem or another rock type to reference his farm golems, but i think Torterra just does the idea much better seeing as its basically an ecosystem in itself. Kangaskhan is a reference to his parental role in the party, but also his need to take care of the younger generation. Perrserker is a reference to his dwarf identity, i just think its neat. Appletun is an apple pie, and Farfetch'd seems like a nice pokemon to help you make food.

Chilchuck: With Chilchuck i wanted to both think of his status as the party rogue/trap disarmer and his position as a family man at heart. I wanted to reference his politics, but found it hard to represent with pokemon. First up we have Thievul, which is just a great fit for him. Its a thief fox that steps around silently, i think he would really like this thing. Klefki is his disarming tools. Maushold is him and his family. I think Pyukumuku is actually the best representation of him. Its small, and mostly utility focused, which is really his place in the party. However its also really cool so theres that, i guess. Lastly Galarian Stunfisk represents traps, and Gimmieghoul is his (least) favourite monster The Mimic.

Izutsumi: I wanted to emphazise that shes both a cat and a angsty teenager, but ended up with a very edgy team. I suppose it fits her though. Liepard is a scheming cat pokemon. It also fits because it has a rivalry with Thievul, which is in Chilchucks team. I think it was a nice fit as they basically have a grumpy dad/teenage daughter relationship at times. Sneasel is a mischievous little guy, which is basically a description of Izutsumi. Greninja is a ninja, and Luxio kinda looks like Izutsumi. Zoroark and Umbreon are both pretty edgy pokemon which i loved as a teenager, but i do think they fit her design. This is probably the weakest team on this list, but I still feel it fits her a lot.

Falin: I wanted to represent Falins place in the story, aswell as some of her likes. Dracozolt is a direct reference to her status as a hybrid bird/dragon/human monster. Its a perfect fit really. Hatterene represents her status as a "damsel in distress" that the party need to save. Although i think shes more than that, I felt it fit as Hatterene also has powerful magic. Oranguru i thought was a funny pick, i think it fits her healing mage aesthetic, and they basically have the same design really. Scolipede is a reference to her love of bugs and Reuniclus is both a psychic type and a body. I think it was a nice fit for her. Lastly we have Alolan Marowak, who in design is an exorcist, which is a nice little nod to her and Laios' conversation when they were children. Her potentially becoming a wandering exorcist.

And thats that. I made this just for fun so there are probably better choices for some of the characters. thanks.

0083/0865 Farfetch'd and Sirfetch'd

Kantonia Fafetch'd don't evolve...curious. Is the type of leek it has access to really that important? Maybe I need to talk to an evolution expert at some point. It's not important for my studies, but I'm a busy Combee and I'll find time~

Farfetch'd are, for whatever reason, slightly more common in Johto than they are Kanto despite 'first being discovered there' (though debates on what counts as 'discovering a Pokemon species' that lives in multiple reasons is extensive and ongoing amongst scientists you do NOT want to get in the middle of one of these arguments trust me).

You can find a lot more of them in farms across Kanto and Johto than in the wild, because their meat is very nutritious so I had to go far out to find them with truly wild behaviour. We also eat Farfetch'd in Galar, but they're harder to farm raise because of their fighting temperaments and are just captured wild.

I know this feels like a strange thing to mention, but the hunting by people and Pokemon alike is one of the deciding factors on where and when a Farfetch'd will decide to sleep.

Farfetch'd prefer temperature grasslands where reedy plants grow, especially of course, leeks. They are capable of unihemispheric sleep, which means they can rest half their brains whilst the other half of active, a trait they share with a few other Pokemon I'll be talking about later. Curiously, even though Psyduck are categorised in the same 'duck Pokemon' label, they don't seem capable of unihemispheric sleep. My theory is that the psychic powers that lay dormant act as great warning systems to disturbance so they don't need to.

It's not uncommon to see any kind of Farfetch'd standing up, or even standing on one leg to sleep! However, they sometimes do build nests when their territory is secure and will sleep with both feet tucked under them in this case. They're not very communal and will have huge territory fights over the best leeks and best nesting area near those leeks.

This fighting is twice as common for Sirfetch'd, which will have long duels until both are exhausted and only share territory with mates. Sirefetch'd actually sleep a bit longer comparatively, sometimes laying fully down on their shields as if they were nests. At all times though both Farfetch'd and Sirfetch'd do not let go of their leeks. They will sleep on top of them if need be, but always touching the body.

[the-duchess-of-postwick]

//ooc: Edited with some basic things for interaction at the bottom. 🩵//

Hi all, my name is Kloe du Postwick!

That's just a super fancy, old fashioned way of saying "Kloe from Postwick", though. Back when Galar was still ruled by a monarchy and had an established peerage, Postwick was the smallest duchy in the kingdom. Today, the nobility is all but dissolved, except in a few limited cases still acknowledged by the government. The duchy of Postwick is one such rare case, but it really doesn't mean anything anymore to be the duke or duchess of Postwick. I mean...sort of. It's largely ceremonial.

When my father passed away, I inherited the title from him... In my closet is his regalia - the last few things I got from his passing. He was away from home often, training Farfetch'd and Sirfetch'd for the government's security operations, which is a carryover from the days when they were trained to go into battle with soldiers and cavaliers, but when he was home we always made the best memories. Perhaps I'll talk more about it sometime.

Our region's current champion, who also happens to be my best friend's oldest brother, Leon, encouraged me to start this blog. I'm a bit into my journey, but I've been getting more and more fans, so he thought having a blog where I could have a platform for people to interact with would be a good idea. I've been keeping a journal on my progress and the kinds of shenanigans me and the team have all been up to, so I'll work on transcribing it here. Don't worry, I'll be sure to date everything!

A couple quick things about me: one, I have a mixed education from both Galar and Alola, so I don't "sound" Galarian, per se. Because Hop's family are Alolan and I basically grew up with them, I had schooling in both Alola and Galar. Some of my terminology is mixed...as is my accent, heh. Two, I'm deafblind! :D ...and otherwise disabled, but I'll just focus on the deafblindness for now. I wasn't born this way. I got quite ill when I was 13, and the infection I was fighting didn't want to go away. It was one of those things where I *finally* got better but the damage had been done. Most people forget I'm deafblind because of the nature of my vision loss and the fact that I have cochlear implants...for better or worse.

Alright, that's all for now. Thanks for sticking with me! Much love and be safe out there! 🩵

//ooc: hello :3 this is a semi-self-insert OC trainer. Kloe is an adult, as am I, although she is a young adult and I just turned 30. I missed several generations of pokemon due to my deafblindness and Sw&Sh was the first generation I was able to play again in...uhhhhh, a *long* time. 😅

If you have ooc questions for me, please specify that, but please please don't be offended if I don't answer them! 🥺 There's certain stuff I wanna keep private. Some questions that are meant to be ooc I might choose to answer ic instead because it would apply to Kloe's character and the answers wouldn't be all that different. Examples I can readily think of would be questions about deafblindness or other disabilities I gave her in common with me. Anyway, that's *actually* all for now. Much love! 🩵

Edit: I lied! Hahaha!! 😈 Okay, honestly, because I'm new (as of writing this, April 7th) I didn't know most of these things existed and that I needed to put them in my intro for interactions.

Things like magic anons and Pelipper mail/malice and Musharna mail/malice and...uh, what are the others...drama, high stakes, etc.?

Basically, since I'm so new, I don't know what I want yet. As of right now, all interactions are at my discretion.

That being said, again, please don't be offended if I don't respond to something! 🥺 I hate letting people go ignored, I fully understand how heartbreaking it can feel, especially if you don't know why! If you're ever worried or curious, please please send me a DM and I would be more than happy to talk with you about it! 🩵

I will update this whenever I feel it's necessary. For the meantime, send me whatever, but please keep it PG-13. 🩵 Okay, that's all. Much love! 🩵

[diamondwerewolf]

What Pokemon do you think Brassius would be? Smeargle is kind of obvious but maybe something that presents more like goth/edgy, to fit how he looks. A funny brambleghast maybe.. but that might be hard to incorporate into an anthro design. (Not asking you to draw this btw I just need ideas LOL)

I've actually been thinking about him quite a bit. I'd probably make him a chivalrous gardener, like a farfetch'd. I think Brassius has some traditional, or valiant tendencies. If he didn't have a heavy wire on his hip, I think he'd have a fencing sword instead. Farfetch'd are known to be elusive gardeners, too. I also feel like this pokemon has the right kinda dramatic for brassius :]]

He's a rough idea, sorta subject to change. Another idea is the leak acting as an unusual paint brush.
