Volotober Day 9: Prayer

“...Giratina?”

(i choose to believe that somewhere out there, it’s still october 9, so therefore, i am not late)

I’m pretty sure no one thought I was actually gonna make this prompt happy lol.

Just when Volo thinks he’s hit rock bottom, the ground caves in. Thus begins his villain arc (feat. Giratina) 🤧 After all, if God won’t answer, then the Devil comes calling.

Well, I really enjoyed making all these fake anime screenshots and I hope you guys did too. See you all next weekend! ✨🌸

Hot take: Kamado gets treated by the fandom the way Volo should’ve, and Volo gets treated waaaay too kindly than he ever deserves.

There’s evidence that shows Kamado was a genuinely good guy who made one misguided mistake and then tries anything to make up for it, and there’s evidence that Volo’s is a predatory psychopath without any evidence suggesting otherwise.

Sure Volo’s hotter, but pokemon fans genuinely need to stop acting like Kamado kills babies in his spare time and Volo was being quirky and “just having a silly moment lol”.

Kamado had a wife. It’s implied she died due to Pokemon. He lost his entire hometown due to Pokemon. Then when he tries to keep his new town (family) safe from creatures that ruined his life, some kid comes along and acts like his trauma isn’t valid or reasonable. But when he realizes that exiling that child was a bad thing to do, he apologizes, regrets his actions, and tries to do anything to make up for it (and even gives them a plate which is partially a key to going back home).

Volo is, from what we know, a guy with a god complex who had stated he would kill a child for a chance to meet god, let alone attempt to kill it. Not to mention the fact that, if he existed in the modern day, a LOT of his behavior would be seen as predatory since he’s acting this way towards a character who is confirmed to be underage.

So sure, you can hate Kamado and think Volo’s hot, but Kamado is definitely the better person of the two, and I’m tired of people saying how horrible he is when he’s an extremely justified man.

Everyone always draws Volo kinda buff/athletic but I prefer the official art where's he's the most longboi skinnyteen you've ever seen in your life. Absolute noodle. I'm telling Cogita on you and she's gonna ground you young man. I would shove him in a locker if I saw him at highschool.

Give it up for the Twin Champions of Sinnoh!

The Hisui Trio in my AU!! :D

(they dont know how to dress up 😔)

I wanted to make reference sheets for the three, even though i took a ton of inspo from many things but its for investment i promise i promise

Those three are friends in this AU, they are all in the present world and they are like a family to each other tbh, they might get into a few arguments but they talk it out later on.

To be fair i think those three would give each other kisses, not in a romantic way though, its just more of a platonic thing i guess??

The three of them own dragon type pokemon, from gen 4, 6 and 8 (me like even numbers dont mind me), i kinda felt like these pokemon fit them best by personality (im not exactly sure for 100%)

Dropping the lore here :

The only way Adaman and Irida could go back and out of Hisui was by Volo taking them with him by going through portals with Giratina, of course the two of them got frightened at the sight of Giratina showing up right in front of their eyes for the first time but they got used to it later on.

As a gift of gratitude from Volo for still being accepted by Adaman and Irida even after everything he's done in the past, he made and gave a clone of Origin Dialga and Origin Palkia to them so that they could also travel through the portals or around the world without his help (he's getting tired from babysitting them pls let him live).

Adaman and Irida just live with Lucas, Dawn and Barry in Twinleaf Town, sometimes Volo comes by to visit them and hang out with them. Lucas and Dawn dont have memories of Rei and Akari, so they have no idea of what Volo used to be back then, if they would then oh boy they would try to kill him.

{With Dialga} Adaman possesses Steel type powers (or Metal Bending as they say), he uses it a lot for combat but also for reaching high places if he cant go up there or reach it by climbing, he bends the metal into a form of a long rope in order to get up there.

{With Palkia} Irida has Water type powers (or Water Bending), she is not really the type of a person to fight but she rather heals others, it also works on pokemon too, though sometimes she can kick ass once in a while if anyone drives her mad.

{With Giratina and Arceus} Volo has all the elements, including Dark type powers but he never uses those as he only sees the bad in them and never wishes to use them, reminding him a lot of Cyrus {bro hates him more than anything}, with Volo being an Archon, he can summon pretty much every pokemon, including the legendaries and mythical ones, and the ultra beasts, even though the legendaries are gods too and are feared by many, Volo however just sees them as misunderstood creatures/beings, as he has a better bond with them than with his own people.

Volo despises humans, he only sees the bad in them as he has only seen the bad things that humans did, and with Volo being isolated in Arceus's realm and being there for about 280 years (met Arceus at 20), he cant really change his opinion about it, even if he has friends that are different than the rest of the humans, Volo still has doubts that humans are good, unless proven to him. Sure, Volo is the archon and savior of this world and he is trying his best to make the world a better with no wars or catastrophies, he hates humans, but he just wants peace, but he is aware that even if this happens one day then the peace wont last forever, the world cant remain peaceful for eternity, theres always going to be something happening all the time and he will have to deal with it on his own.

This would be Volo and his Dragapult (canon)

Imagine praying to god, and this is who you're praying to

Art block you say? *Throws my Tav at you but in a polite way*

Her name is Valentine and she's a cleric of Selune Shart romancer :3

Shoutout to selfships who don’t fit the more common labels of romantic, platonic, and familial!!

Queerplatonic partners, teachers and mentors, rivals, roommates, coworkers, pets and companions, and more!!

Your relationship is different depending on the s/i you use? That’s so cool! It's fun to explore all the different possibilities!

Your relationship is complex, and simply can’t be summed up with one word? There’s more than one way to like a character, and not everything needs to fit neatly in a box!

At the end of the day, all that matters is that you’re happy and safe and comfortable. And no matter your relationship with your f/o, they love and appreciate you so so much :D

Based after the events of Dialga and Palkia being captured at Temple of Sinnoh, Gold is thankful to Volo for all his help after being banished but making a discovery she may regret.

Volotober Days 17-19! Aka the extremely self-indulgent Bonus Slot ˗ˋˏ ♡ ˎˊ˗ Ya'll have no idea how excited I was to do a Sailor Moon one dkfjsd hell yeah Volotober just for me

Is Volo similar to Tuxedo Mask? Not even a little bit, but like many 90s babys Tuxedo Mask was my first love. Riko is more likely to beat his ass than hold him delicately in her lap but who cares about that not me

Volotober Day 8: Home

“That place is not my home.”

Little backstory for why Rei’s there: While I was drawing for day 8 and 9, I realized it would fit another AU I had brewing. I just call it the Sinnoh Clan AU, since the premise is to have everyone (barring Jubilife Village) assimilate into one giant clan that worships Arceus, Palkia, and Dialga. Volo, Rei, Irida, Adaman, and the others all grow up together in the Sinnoh clan.

Special children are chosen to undergo training as a ‘champion’ to serve one of the deities, and both Volo and Rei were part of the group chosen to serve Arceus. However, at the tail end of the final competition, Arceus makes a ‘public’ show of choosing Rei as his champion over Volo even though he won fair and square. There are already rumors that Volo was seen consorting with the exiled god, Giratina, so the rest of the clan members take it as a sign that Arceus doesn’t want him to remain in the clan.

Unfortunately for Volo, the strange lightning that affects the Nobles happens right after, which doesn’t help his case one bit. He’s chased out of the clan after one of the Nobles attacks them, narrowly escaping death when he’s taken in by an older couple from a nearby village.

Rei, who now holds the highest power in the clan as Arceus’ champion, secretly looks for him to apologize and bring him back (since he doesn’t believe that he’s cursed). But Volo is obviously resentful of his former friend, and refuses to go back under his ‘pity’.

Tomorrow’s prompt is ‘Prayer’! Do you think it’ll be a happy set this time? :)

[aerticent]

the genuine pain Evangeline feels over standing complicit in her Father’s death destroys me. This man who has done nothing but strip her of her freedom and force her into (abusive) engagements and undermine her value within the Rift and she’s still haunted by his death. She realized early on that the Cygnets want him as well for Maven and chooses to stay silent and when that passes and she’s given a second chance to say stop his death she stands and simply watches it happen. She outright tells Cal she hopes Iris’s gods aren’t real because she doesn’t want to know what they have in store for her. She thinks that the act of her keeping this information from Volo is proof to everyone that she’s a terrible person GOD

[pokemonruby]

the fact that kieran and volo are constantly compared to each other is exceptionally funny to me since one of them is just a 12-year-old with anxiety and the other is a grown man who used his catholic guilt as a justification to destroy the universe

[ethanharmonia]

Heard that volo is coming to masters ex so. Wanted to draw this mf with his cyber bullies from my PLA team (except arceus) 🥰🥰🥰

KINDA disappointed that they didnt give him Arceus or Giratina, he deserves them

Important

Na cuz how did he casually just come back as a merchant, also did his togekiss unevolve or smth cuz i remember that thing being an atomic bomb in PLA. Bro had done something behind the scenes i can sense that from miles away

(i was laughing so hard)
