#i know little to nothing about pokemon i just recently started playing legends arceus

A little story for yall. Ingo and Emmet stuff at the end.

I'm going to confess here. I had a twitter account before I had a tumblr account. And though I just coincidentally decided to make an account during the time a bunch of people were migrating from twitter, I would say I'm not a twitter migrant. I would more say this situation is more akin to being switched at birth and now I just recently found my real family after being in a bad place by mistake.

Let me explain. I've been aware that tumblr exists through my life, just- never made an account for some reason. I always felt like I matched the vibe of this place regardless. I do not know why I didn't think to make an account here before. Maybe because I mostly don't care much for a lot of social media. I use Discord a lot considering it's my primary source of talking to people with how far away from people I live and people are scary offline. Aside from that, I go on youtube some and most of what I put on twitter nowadays is videos from my switch.

I feel safe here. Like I'm at home here. I can post things here and feel good about posting stuff.

Twitter on the other hand, I had only made a twitter account because of a game I played as a kid (cough cough Hungry Shark Evolution cough cough) where I could get free stuff or could keep my game progress or something like that if I connected to a twitter account. But eventually when I decided to actually make tweets on there, I felt like an outcast and nothing I ever tweeted felt "twittery" and more like very undercooked tumblr posts.

I had a reddit account for a little while years ago too but I never felt safe there. Dunno why I had even made the account. One day I posted a meme to a pokemon reddit. The meme had Ingo and Emmet on it and people kept asking what it had to do with pokemon. This was WAYYY before legends arceus back when Ingo and Emmet were.... obscure for some reason?? I really like both of them and I always have and I was aware they had obscurity I just didn't know they were obscure enough for an entire reddit page(?) to come after me for putting a meme "that had nothing to do with pokemon" on there. I'm very glad legends arceus brought more people to the submas fandom. I also made a little reddit page(?) thingy because I thought at the time that's just what you do on reddit and then forgot it existed for weeks until I went back to discover people were putting digimon porn all over it and I panic-deleted my reddit account. That was the end of that problem. Don't get me wrong, I love digimon, maybe even more than I love pokemon but there's this one meme I've seen going around tumblr. What was it? Something like the gnome saw a ding-dong and started to cry(?) I don't remember the exact wording but that was the emotion there.

I want to make friends with some people in the submas fandom on here. My favorite pokemon games may be sword and shield, but that doesn't mean I neglect other generations. I know I talk about Ryuki from sun and moon a lot on here and have mentioned Ingo and Emmet in posts before and the submas posts might have the most notes of anything I have posted.

I'm not tagging this post with them though because this post isn't entirely about them, though I am about to talk about them a lot in this post. I just feel like it wouldn't be morally ok to tag submas and all that when there's all this other stuff. Or my morals are being way too sensitive but idk

So anyhoo...

I keep wanting to reveal some au versions of Ingo and Emmet to tumblr but haven't gotten around to it among other things. Specifically from an au I have that I call the beast au. A lot of what I have is edits of official art of characters because I'm not comfortable enough with my art level just yet. I've been drawing my whole life, except I've always just tried to mimic the artstyle of whatever I was hyperfixated on and I don't actually have an artstyle of my own. I of course, still draw pics of the aus sometimes just that I like to have my art references in the official style.

Something about the beast au is that like all my aus, nobody uses the bathroom and children are had in alternative ways so they don't have all those things I don't like. Folks could go out naked if they absolutely wanted to because there's nothing to hide. In the beast au, some beasts look more beastly than others or even wear less or no clothes. They have fur though. The ones with more fur tend to be less likely to wear clothing. The beast au is not specific to Ingo and Emmet by the way. I have Grusha from scarlet and violet. I feel confident in my art skills when I look at it. This au, like many other aus of mine is very complex and even has some non pokemon characters in it. I have beast au versions of three characters from Megaman Battle Network.

I just can't show the beast au Ingo or Emmet because- their beast au versions have been in heavy need of a redesign for a long time. Also I kind of want there to be drawings of them rather than showing edited official art to tumblr. For anyone curious, they look like this right now but whenever I look at that edit, I always think something like "I can do better. I can do way better." If you saw checked out the embedded like when I mentioned the beast au Grusha, anyone could tell I can indeed do better. I intend to have drawings of them before I show improved versions to tumblr though.

The problem is that I need to wait until I have a specific kind of drawing motivation and I'm still waiting for that motivation to appear to get better images of my beast au versions of Hop and Leon. The Leon is... acceptable. And an edit of an anime screenshot. But if you couldn't tell why I embedded a link to that and not the Hop, it's because the Hop is completely unacceptable. I just have to wait for the right kind of drawing motivation.

(Some people who follow me may remember another au Hop I have shown off a lot. He isn't from the beast au, though he visits the beast world a lot because he's a universe traveler in a complex system of universes. Some universes he goes to significantly more often than others. He's friends with several beasts including beast Hop so yeah he'd go there a lot. I have an entire alternate multiverse basically. The beast world is just one of many. Would that be called "am" instead of "au"? The au he's from takes an entire google doc to explain. If you read it, feel free to scroll down past the blank pages heheh)

Though fret not, my friends. I have a drawing of normal Emmet. Putting it under a keep reading because I'm sky about showing drawings just there and I don't want to just embed the link to it in the post like the other things. I don't know why "Image Options" has been inaccessible for months when I used to be able to cover things in a sensitive content warning (I'm sensitive to showing stuff so I did that a lot)

It's kind of a rushed thing I did years ago about a dream where Emmet won a horse race and was flocked to by many women. I vividly remember this scene and Emmet saying this in the dream. It was rushed because I worried I would forget but I never forgot

The World-Building behind the Pokeyman Sun/Moon/Violence comic 4th-ing with Poni Island Everything is for fun and took a lot of thought and work from this Ty so pls Don’t steal, copy, claim as your own etc… Super rude. Its more creative if you make up your own stuff too ya know

Poni Island, the island where legends await Current Kahuna: Hapu Palakiko Former Kahuna: Niihau Palakiko Guardian Deity: Tapu Fini Capital: Seafolk Port Main Export: Miltank, Growlithe, Grains, Vegetables Main Import: Fruit, Ranch produce, Fish -Poni Island is hard and rugged so nothing can really grow here except the sturdiest of grains and vegetables. These things can't grow on any of the other islands and Hapu takes a great sense of pride in that. She is in all definitions of the word keeping her island alive with produce and trade -Seafolk Port's only constant residents are the restaurant and Mina's parents' home. It looks kind of eerie when no one else is there... Not to mention the Dhelmise that wander the area -Tapu Fini though not as sadistic as Tapu Lele does enjoy screwing with lives. For no reason other than her own amusement, she saved Baloo and Timaeus's lives and made her a trial captain. But any other time she's off doing Arceus knows what. -But Tapu Fini is the worse aggressor against Ultra Beasts and has been since they first made the terrible choice to emerge from Ultra Space. When a rogue Kartana killed Niihau, Tapu Fini was livid and took her sweet time giving it the sweet release of death -Upon arrival a trial goer is directed by Hapu to the Poni Canyon where they find Baloo who sets them on the first trial and afterwards tells them to find Mina. No one ever knows where she is but her trial is near Poni Gauntlet ------------------------- Poni Island breeds the best Miltank, Tauros and Growlithe Miltank variants include: standard, show and competition --Standard Miltank are the kind that are just wandering in herds. They are people friendly enough that they gift one of their calves to an aspiring child without worry. --Show Miltank are fluffy and even more docile then their standard counterparts. Some are even tiny! They aren't good for work, battle or milking but are nice to keep around as they bond quickly with their trainers --Competition Miltank are rare and there's one in each herd typically extremely protective of their fellow Miltanks. If captured they are very difficult to tame as you have essentially left their family in peril and they know this. Its best to leave them be Tauros variants include: standard and competition --Standard Alolan Tauros are a lot more docile then their Kanto counterparts. They can be trusted around small children and some actually enjoy a little cuddle every now and then. Should you make a Taros your best friend it will protect you like one of it's own. --Competition Tauros are sturdy and powerful usually enlisted as Ride Pokemon. The ones who aren't are trained for battles or guarding fields where calves and crops are. Growlithe variants include: standard, toy, show, competition and stunted --Standard Growlithe are bred here simply because the environment is right to insure they're healthy but few stay on Poni long. Like the Lillipup line they're meant for light herding and guard jobs but they have smaller strides and stamina by comparison. They're best for keeping your Torchic in line at most. --Toy Growlithe were a request from other islands after a few failed attempts at breeding on Melemele. These Growlithes often have a Fairy parent giving them small delicate legs and poofy coats resulting in the pom Growlithe. Like most toy breeds, pom Growlithes are illegal to battle. They can die very easily during battle. --Show Growlithe are meant for the equivalent of dog shows and herding not so much contests. Like Houndour, Lillipup, Electrike and the other dog mons, these Growlithes will be bred with a long slightly feathered tail or even no tail at all. Their chest fur is also thicker to protect them from being kicked --Competition Growlithe are bred for heavy guarding. Ones typically know Close Combat or Double Kick at birth. They're quite docile as well usually trained to take down an intruder and hold them until the authorities are called. Some are even used as Ride Pokemon because of how strong and agile they are. --Stunted Growlithes are rare but more common on other islands. They're the lovable mutts often with a crooked ear, a snaggle-tooth or a patch on the eye. They are one of few stunted Pokemon that don't normally have respiratory or social problems. ------------------------------ Seafolk Port -Where all the travelers come to rest and refuel in Alola. Its a trading hot-spot and the market always has something from other regions for sale. Hapu, Mina and Baloo tend to wait out for boats coming and going just because they have no impulse control around each other -Mina's parents live here as well and they kind of let on they're worried about Mina. She rarely visits and when she does its very short lived as they ask her if she's met anyone or what her plans for settling down are. -Hapu keeps a stand here selling her produce too. Since the only person who doesn't live here is Mina there's never a need for delivering anything Exeggutor Island -Very... Very dangerous... The Exeggutor are really territorial and a bit protective of what's there. Hapu won't disclose what's there to keep thieves away but it is frequently Mina and/or Baloo's job to patrol the entirety of that island to make sure no one is there. -Niihau granted the then 11 year old Milo permission to capture a Pokemon from the island but didn't expect him to capture the Serperior there. He was grateful though since they are territorial and even making it hard for him to visit -Because of the Exeggutor, Serperior and Goodra living there, no people can live there at all Ancient Poni Path -Hapu lives here and most of it is farmland and grazing grounds. So often one will find Hapu, Mina and Baloo in the fields usually two out of three doing something they aren't supposed to -Farther down the path is the tree where you battle Hapu. Sometimes she's just there. Not doing anything but thinking or reminiscing. If you watch too long she'll notice you eventually and apologize for not saying anything sooner Vast Poni Canyon -Baloo's trial is here just past Hapu's tree where Totem Kommo'o typically is. Its one of few trials including Plumeria's and Mina's where the Totem Pokemon is visible from the beginning. If you get too close to Kommo'o before finishing up the trial to battle, he will growl and Baloo will say something to the effect of "I wouldn't" or "don't tick him off or he'll make the battle way more difficult then need be" -The Jangmo'o sanctuary is here as well and it is Baloo's struggle to keep it safe. There are no less then 40 Jangmo'o there and she refuses to operate under any other conditions. Sort of deceptive too since being in the canyon but not the sanctuary, you can still hear them peeping and running around. -Dangerously close to the sanctuary and literally all of Poni Island's problem is a pack of Lucarios. Though recently their alpha was captured after he made the poor decision to attack the sanctuary and Mina's house. They are still a prominent threat and Hapu will insist no one disturb them or get too close. Can't arrest a Lucario for murder after all. Poni Coast -Mina lives here... Somewhere. She had to move out after all the questions about settling down got to be too much. Her house is a pretty big tree house overlooking the ocean, coast and gauntlet. If she's not at the port, Hapu's house, the sanctuary or her trial ground, she's here. Poni Gauntlet -Mina's trial is here and sometimes you gotta wait for her to show up too. She'll kind of lazily go over the rules and ask you try to get through it in one shot. Probably because if you mess up you get attacked by Beedrill and she doesn't want to take you to the hospital. Battle Tree -A new structure type place. It has housing for everyone who battles here and the only requirement for coming here is that you complete all the trials. The catalog for partners is extremely long with the only exception being no kahunas. ------------------------ Mudsdale Festival -A festival Hapu thought of after watching her two children trial captains push each other down in the mud and Mudsdale decided to come over nudge them around getting them even more dirty. Just a fun filled day with Mudsdale themed things to buy and getting to play tug of war with Mudbray (for the chitterins) or Mudsdale Battle Tree Tourney -When its Alola's turn to host the Champion Summit, the Battle Tree tourney starts to pass the week until the Summit is over. It generates a ton of revenue and publicity even attracting the greatest trainers in the world. This type of thing usually can't happen in the other regions since trial captains can't leave without special permission. Not say an attempt was never made of course
