[pokeprofshowdown]

Welcome to the first (Unofficial) Pokemon Professor Showdown!!

The ending of SV's main storyline: An epic showdown down against the AI professors to stop the paradox pokemon from breaching Area Zero and destroying the entire region

The ending of SV's DLC storyline:

((I understand that if Gamefreak did anything more interesting with Pecharunt's brainwashing than "It makes you do funny dances!", it probably would have also been more terrifying and less 'kid-friendly,' but this ending felt kinda lame to me.))

I guess they wanted to end off on something more lighthearted due to it being the last part of the story. It's not bad, but I do wish it had a bit more gravitas or at least connected with the Area Zero stuff more.

I plan on drawing more of my favourite villains at some point.

[cyborb]

there have been some asks sitting unanswered in my inbox for an embarrassingly long time so I'm just going to go through and answer a bunch of them at once haha.

Sada and Turo / Paldea

now that the dlc is out I can play around with my own version of paldea's story and the professors (that I may or may not actually talk about), but they won't be in the rainbow rocket stuff with supersymmetry. "officially" at least. maybe I'll draw something for fun, but I don't intend them to actually be in rr like the rest. they're more interesting to me within the story of paldea, especially with the ai aspects and ... other things going on there.

but to the anons who sent me these: those ideas are cool and honestly you should pursue them yourself!

Lusamine

absolutely yes. in the base universe, her "unification" with nihilego kills her pretty quickly. iota lusamine is luckier since her nihilego seems to prefer keeping her around for longer. slow-acting vs fast-acting poisons, I suppose. by the time lusamine is picked up by rr, it's been about 6 months since she became jellyfish. who knows how much time she has left but her mental (and physical) state will continue to deteriorate along the way. an unsurprising consequence of willingly jumping into the mouth of a parasite

possibly? I haven't given that much thought tbh. considering lillie and guzma's proximity to lusamine when she goes motherbeast, they'd both be lucky to make it out alive hahaha. but I could see all three of them trying to help people and pokemon in the UB-overrun world too

honestly, no clue. I don't even think she knows, and she definitely doesn't care. who needs regular pokemon when she's got ultra beasts now! if lillie is still around she might have taken in a few of them herself though.

Other AU stuff

I've actually made a post about team galactic here!

one fun fact about each of them:

maria/mars is giovanni and ariana's first child, and she ran from her home in kanto when she was 16 to become a pokemon trainer and get away from her parents. sorry silver (she hasn't contacted him in a while).

juno/jupiter makes traditional (hisuian) style pokeballs as a hobby despite the fact that they absolutely are not practical to actually use anymore. but they look nice

sterling/saturn helps run the in-universe equivalent of pokemon showdown because he's a nerd. he enjoys simulated battles more than the real thing most of the time

great news: the rainbow rocket invasion all his fault!

by that I mean the choice of the base universe for invasion wasn't entirely arbitrary; rainbow rocket didn't just Show Up and hope this universe had what they wanted. beforehand, someone from rainbow rocket (either giovanni or archer, maybe even colress) scouted things out, and approached faba for information about the general state of the world and necrozma in particular. faba essentially sells out the universe (and aether's work with necrozma) in exchange for the promise of power and whatever tantalizing rewards the rr emissary offers haha. it's possible some of this involves planting a device to let rr come back to the right universe when ready too. what faba is up to when everything is going down in rr is not something that I've thought about, but he definitely gets found out for his actions leading up to it. oops!

unfortunately probably not. the rr stuff is happening on the other side of the planet and I can't think of a situation which might result in them getting to meet up. I'm not enough of an expert on the two of them to say how such a meeting would play out either, but it would definitely be... interesting considering their own universe's version of the other person has been dead for several years.

rose would probably be the least upset about it but cyrus wins the award for most upset (he has control issues). lysandre absolutely would have the most violent response to it though

Compliments

while I'm not going to share the collection of complimentary messages I've gotten over time, I want everyone to know that I really appreciate hearing that you enjoy my ideas and art! it's encouraging and I'm glad people like my pokemon playground hahaha. and that applies to tags too! it's always great to see... I don't always get around to actually answering the stuff in my inbox (whether it's actual questions or otherwise) but rest assured I do see it!

[pokeprofshowdown]

In the interest of having enough contestants that we won't have to cut anyone that actually counts or do too many 3v3 polls, we've come down to a handful of characters who either sort-of-maybe count and/or are Professors but are pretty obscure and barely have any character art to go off of, so I once again have decided to let the people choose! The poll will last for one day, and the top four will go on to the actual competition, while the rest shall be given a consolation hug and front-row tickets to the main event! Good luck, and see y'all tomorrow!

[pooepw]

this is why i do not trust smogonites

they got starter pokemon that look like this

then the game has transphobic stuff like literally using the attack helicopter meme and tr*p as one of the pokemon (updated in 2022 still using those "edgy" memes).

then the hornymon sprites look professionally done like this (yes this is a real pokemon in their game)

i only noticed this because i was trying to make a sand team and when i looked up sand stream in the showdown teambuilder, i got a pokemon called snaelstrom and was greeted by this game when looking up that fakemon

edit: blue is a nazi. just straight up. he said my character had jewish tricks

and then in the next line called me and professor oak an "oven dodger"

wtf

tempted to do a full tumblr sexyman poll style showdown with all the pokemon professors from every single piece of pokemon media out there
