Which starter Pokémon is your muse picking from the five generations of the Pokémon games? You can only pick 1 per gen!
Tumblr media
I have 8 muses so I think I will answer for all 8. And I'll assume you meant the first five generations but i'm a weak individual so i will be doing all nine
Mikah: Spiritgatito 'cause cat. and Meowscarda was made for Mikah specifically. They would pick this all on their own and would not look back. Scorbunny was a close second, though!
Penny: Torchic 'cause that little chicken nugget is my absolute favorite and I really like the idea of Penny just holding one in her lap. or it burping flames at Mikah and Evan when they annoy her. Cyndaquil was a close second for her.
Wynn: Turtwig!!! I really meant it when I was like "Man loves his plants" and i had a difficult time choosing between the grass starters for him. Ultimately, though, i went with this little guy for him despite the fact that he would realistically have all of them. Or at least know people that have the ones he can't.
Evan: Totodile 'cause Evan is a goblin and so is Totodile. I also think that having one would really suit him at all stages of its evolution and like… bro, it's a crocodile. Evan's in love already. The other ones he was eyeing was Litten aaaand Skeledirge.
Dakota: Fennekin and no one can tell me any different. You cannot tell me that the Fennekin-Braixen-Delphox line is not specifically Dakota-coded. It is so cute and Koko would be on that little guy in a heartbeat. Also, it has a type advantage over Mikah's pick at least in the Grass-Fire aspect so. If she didn't go with Fennekin, she'd scoop Chimchar or Tepig in a heartbeat.
Joseph: I had to change Joey's because initially, he would pick Froakie explicitly because of Greninja if he's thinking outside the realm of fucking people over 'cause honestly, their temperaments would mesh so well. I then remembered that Generation I exists and realized Joseph would be that one bastard with a Charizard so he can have a double type advantage over Mikah's pick. 4x damage baybee.
Roderick: Grookey! I had chosen Chimchar initally for him but, given that another already has a starter from the Sinnoh region, I had to change Roderick's pick. I was already contemplating whether or not he would have Chimchar or Grookey anyway, though, so it worked out. I feel like he'd love both of them equally.
Andris: Rowlet because Andris thinks owls are cute. That's the entire reason. He loves Rowlet, Dartix, and Decidueye a lot. The fact that Decidueye is a Grass-Ghost type is conincidental because not only does Andris think it's adorable, you will never see it coming, just like Andris' many red flags! And that's a fact. Andy... also didn't really have a second choice. it was always Rowlet.

Hiya my friend, hope you're well :] 💛🫂 I have a random question just for fun!
What is your favorite pokemon? 👀 (You can also say multiple if you like!)
Sorry I've been sleeping on this ask for a long time bit, I've been trying to think about my absolute favorite Pokémon but I have so many that I love! It's so hard to choose or to even make a short list shrdsghss 😅
Buuuut I guess if I had to say, I like dog/wolf-like Pokémon a lot!! Also dragons, and unicorns, and practically all Dark/Fairy types!! Oh, and Eevee as well as all of its evolutions!!
Here are a few random examples after browsing the gifs page:
Tumblr media
Mightyena
Tough, dark and intimidating, plus I just love its design!! It was the closest Pokémon design to an actual wolf for ages until Lycanroc came out! I still love it just as much though 💖 You do not wanna get bitten by one either! Its jaws are real powerful and not to be trifled with!
Tumblr media
Absol/Mega Absol
I like Absol for similar reasons, although the fact that it often gets hated for 'bringing disasters' is probably what really got me. It was only trying to warn folks of the impending danger, but since those disasters often happened after Absol appeared, it became known as the Disaster Pokémon instead... but I still love it at least 😢
Then they came up with this badass Mega Evolution design...!!! I mean... wings!!?? And foot floofs!!?? Brooooo 🥰
Tumblr media
Goodra & Dedenne
This one's a two-parter because it just so happens that I love both of these guys hehe!! Goodra was loved the moment I first set eyes on it. It's so friendly and cheerful, and it loves to give its trainer hugs (even if they end up getting slimed lol). Literally one of the sweetest dragon Pokémon ever 💖
And Dedenne is adorable!! It's hard not to love a tiny electric mouse (see all the many Pikachu fans out there) and the Pokémon games have worked hard to make cute little guys like that for each gen after the world fell in love with Pikachu! I don't know if they were all quite as successful, but I mean... they sure won me over 🥰
Tumblr media
Dragonair
I think this was the very first dragon Pokémon I ever liked, actually! Dragonair is from gen 1 and it's the form that Dratini evolves into! I've always loved its long body and mysterious glowing tail orbs! Apparently they use their orbs/horn to change the weather too!! There's just something so mystical about it, so magical! I even taught myself how to draw it from memory as a kid ☺
Tumblr media
Typhlosion & Seviper
Another two-parter!! I used to really struggle between picking Chikorita and Cyndaquil in Silver version all the time, and this is why! Typhlosion is one of my favorite starter Pokémon, even to this day! I love its fiery powers - I mean, how cool would it be to rub your fur together and just cause explosions!? Plus its cry sounds so raw, so tough... so cool 😎
Seviper is awesome too, purely because of its design imo. I'm not usually big on snake Pokémon, but I actually raised a Seviper in my old Alpha Sapphire game, and it was both awesome and reliable! You could say it kinda grew on me I guess 😉
Tumblr media
Delphox
It's literally my favorite starter from Kalos because it starts off as a little Fennekin, and then gradually evolves into this tall fox witch that has psychic powers of prophecy and uses an actual branch wand to attack!! SO COOL. I love foxes just as much as I do wolves, so it's no surprise that I instantly took to Delphox 🥰
Tumblr media
Zoroark
Another fox Pokémon that I adore, Zoroark has a special illusion ability that lets it disguise itself as other Pokémon or even people! It has a reputation for being tricky, plus it's a cool Dark type!! It's also got a lot of speed and, again, its design is just so awesome! I wasn't joking about loving wolves/foxes/coyotes etc. Almost all of my biggest faves are those types 😄
Tumblr media
Dusk Lycanroc
I was SO HAPPY when Lycanroc came out, it's a cool wolf with a mane made of rock!! Finally a true wolf Pokémon, I just love it to pieces!! I absolutely had to catch two Rockruffs so I could evolve them into its Midday and Midnight forms! Then they came out with Dusk Lycanroc, and my life was never the same again!! I love the other two forms so much, but Dusk is like... my absolute favorite!! It's basically the best of both worlds, a rare combination of Midday and Midnight that you can only get through certain means!! It's so pretty and cute and lovely and - 🥰💗💖❤💖💗💓💓💖💖❤
Tumblr media
Galarian Rapidash
And this basically shows my love of unicorns for all to see hehe. I've always loved Rapidash - it's like a cool flame unicorn (BADASS) and one of the fastest Pokémon in existence (ALSO BADASS) - but then Galarian Rapidash won me over even more!! It's magical appearance and new Fairy/Psychic type is so cool!! I love how pretty it is too, like... how its mane glows when it uses its moves, and how regal it is standing in the shadows of Glimwood Tangle... Big fave for sure 🥰
Tumblr media
Alolan Ninetales
Yet another fox and a Fairy/Ice type that I love!! The original Ninetales was a Fire type too, just like Rapidash!! I love regional variants sooooo much 🥰 Anyway, aside from being incredibly pretty, Alolan Ninetales is known to lead people down from its snowy mountain if they get lost up there - though it won't forgive anyone who hurts nature! Plus it can make beautiful auroras... such a pretty ability to have 💖
I could definitely list more Pokémon, but mobile Tumblr's photo count won't be able to support that many gifs or photos! This ask is lagging already just from these gifs alone lol x3

Tbh I hate to say it but you’re right about fennekin. It’s probably my favorite starter ever but I think they could’ve done much more with the final evolution (including both design and color scheme) and I really wish braixen’s design wasn’t the ultimate Pokémon furry bait (I really, really hope it gets a regional form evolution line that’s quadrupedal in the future)
i feel like im okay with fennekin standing up, and the witch theming is interesting, i just never ended up falling in love with it. i think xy was one of the harder gens for me to choose a starter that i liked, and fennekin always ended up the last choice. braixen is a really cool pokemon esp for a middle stage, but delphox just doesnt do anything for me and it feels like it couldve been better.
i think they should have maybe leaned into like full on wizard and gave it a beard or something, something that ties into the ears since thats such an important part of the designs. the dull red also throws me off, idk something about delphox colors and silhouette really turns me off on it. less that neutral opinion about it :(

(@shiniesroverrated) greetings! ive always wondered about showcases, since theyre a kalos thing you dont see much news of them elsewhere, but what's the actual experience like? are there a lot of different pokemon there or is there, like, a specific niche that most trainers fill?
Hi c: There are a lot of different pokemon but in the master class showcases they tend to be ones that are generally considered cute or pretty, you'll see a lot more variety in the rookie class which is part of why I like it better (I don't aim to be Kalos Queen, I do showcases for fun)
Something that often happens is that people will choose specific pokemon because previous Kalos Queens had one, not a huge fan of that trend but I can't criticize it without being a hypocrite... I did beg my parents for a fennekin because of a performer I was a fan of at the time ^^; (I was 12 don't judge me)

top 5 starter pokemon from any game?
hi anon thanks so much for sending an ask!!! i love you <3<3<3<3<3
anyway im just gonna go ham with this list
cyndaquil — heartgold is my favorite gen, and the second game i ever played after platinum! i fell in love with cyndaquil at first sight (and quilava is my favorite second-stage starter too) so he holds a special place in my heart for being my first favorite starter <3
litten — he’s a FIRE CAT do i need to say more. when i found out they were making the fire starter a cat mon i went feral. fire is often my default starter type so i was really happy when sun & moon came out, especially bc litten and torracat are so cute 🥺🥺🥺 incineroar took me a while longer to get used to but he grew on me LOL
mudkip — i really love the mudkip line, mudkip and marshtomp are so cute and their water/ground typing makes them really strong <3 i’ve only played the hoenn remakes so far but i hope to one day give mudkip the journey it deserves in a ruby playthrough!
oshawott — my first water starter 🥹💧 like i said above, i normally choose fire types by default but oshawott was so cute i couldn’t refuse! i really love oshawott a ton, and dewott is my favorite of the second-stage starters after quilava as well <3 i also think the oshawott line has a great moveset and overall they just have good designs!
fennekin — i’ve heard a lot of talk that people don’t like the fennekin line, but i really love their designs, and the psychic dual typing was a pleasant surprise! delphox has really good moves too, so i always enjoy picking her over chespin or froakie in x and y <3
honorable mentions:
scorbunny — oughgogghhgohug,,, ok i’ll be honest i really didn’t care about scorbunny until i watched pokemon journeys and now i would legit kill myself for him he’s so FUCKING cute 🥺🥺🥺 i also really love the scorbunny and cinderace designs tbh, raboot not so much but it’s ok because i’ll still love him even if he’s emo. cinderace is also way op honestly, i love pyro kick’s animation, it’s really smooth! and libero is such a broken ability too i want a libero scorbunny 😭
sprigatito — the littlest pet shop -> puss in boots -> furry clown pipeline is absolutely hilarious, i hated meowscarada at first but unironically love him now, his design is kinda trash but he’s my trash <3
thanks for sending this in anon! here, have a scorbunny <3

today i learned that i hate the fact that every pseudo-legendary pokemon is found like super late into the game.
like,,, i don’t even know where you find dratini in original red and blue (in the let’s go games you can find it by surfing on the route above cerulean city), in gold, silver and crystal larvitar’s post-game, i don’t know where you get bagon or beldum in the hoenn games, nor do i know where you get gible in the sinnoh games, or deino in the unova games, in x and y goomy’s on the route leading to the town with the sixth gym, in the alola games jangmoo-o’s found during the final trial, so the very end of the game, and idk where you get,,, whatever the first stage of dragapult is in sword and shield.
I JUST WANNA USE GOOMY-

Smile - Leonardo Imagine
Request: hi! can i request a angst/fluff leo imagine where the reader rarely smile nor laugh bcs she's insecure with it so leo tries to make her come out of her shell by telling a lot of jokes and she ended up laughing so hard and leo was awestruck and accidentally said smth like ",,,you look so beautiful when you smile" then confess his feelings to her? sorry if it's too much and thank you!💘💞
Pairing: Leonardo 
Content Warnings: Self-deprecating thoughts, Reader is a pokemon nerd, horrible puns from Leo, and a happy ending! 
Word Count: 1213 Words! 
Y. A. Down, right, A. Repeat. You sigh quietly as you lean forward to scratch another blue tally onto your scrap paper. You twiddle the neon blue gel pen between your fingers before setting it back down on your lap. Ah, yes. The rewarding, if not a tad tedious, adventure of chain fishing. You had promised yourself that you’d wait until you got the shiny charm, but who can ignore the allure of a shiny Dratini? Not you. 
You feel a dip in the couch, and you tentatively spare a glance to your right. Leo! You reflexively bite back a smile as you nod your head at him. He shoots you his award-winning and you feel your breath catch in your throat: how can he be so perfect? Your eyes flicker around his face, desperately trying to will away the rapid beating of your heart. Seemingly unaware of your reaction, he leans over to you and slings his arm around your shoulders. He peers over at your 3DS before speaking. 
“Heyyy, (Y/N). Whatcha doin’?” He drawls. 
You curse at him internally, gathering your thoughts as quickly as possible: “Shiny hunting,” you mutter, “I haven’t gotten the charm yet, but I feel like if I don’t get a shiny ASAP I’m just gonna give in and soft reset until I get that shiny Fennekin, you know? So...yeah. Chain-fishing time.” That was probably too much information, you think, but you need to will down your flusterment somehow. But then he leans in closer, and you feel the heat rise to your face once more. 
“Meh, Froakie’s better.”
“It’s shiny form is so boring though.” 
“Yeah,” he hums, “fair enough. Shiny Greninja is dope though. If you ever get one, you’re legally obligated to name it after me. Whatcha lookin for?” He grabs the blue pen from off your lap, but he doesn’t remove his arm’s place from your shoulders. You choose not to comment on it, fearful that he might retract the contact. 
“Dratini, but I’d settle for Poliwhirl.” 
“Dude, imagine if you chained like, 500 times, and then got a fucking Magikarp,” he leans forward to smile at you, and you’re forced to bite back a smile of your own. It’s so reflexive, that you don’t even recognize it anymore. You’ve never liked your smile, or your laugh. But in the moment, you don’t think about that: It simply is what it is. But then you see Leo bite the inside of his cheek. It’s a small, but noticeable action that leaves you wondering: What is he planning? 
“Thank fucking god there’s no Magikarp in this pond, then.” 
“Aww,” he coos, “Don’t play...Koi... with me now, (Y/N). A shiny’s a shiny!” 
Did he…? You roll your eyes, but move your hand up to your face nonetheless. Don’t smile, and if you do, don’t show it. You repeat these words in your head like a mantra without even realizing it. “Oh my god, Leo.” 
“What?” He grins. 
You shoot him a look as you bite the inside of your palm. Okay, that one caught you off-guard, but he doesn’t need to know that. 
“Okay, okay,” he chuckles, “I guess you could say that one was…” 
“Don’t.” 
“Low Quality Bait?” 
“I’m gonna attack you like a feral dog,” you huff quietly, masking your amusement. A pseudo-laugh, if you will. 
“But honestly, you love my lines! I mean, I’m hilarious. How could you not be reeled in by them? You can’t tell me that I don’t have you hooked on ‘em, (Y/N)!” 
You chuckle quietly into your hand. So quietly, in fact, that you’re not even sure he heard it. And honestly, that’s probably for the better. A ghost of a smile graces your features as you pull your hand down from your face to lightly elbow him in the plastron. “Nice try, Leo.” You lean against him a little more as you tug the pen out of his hands to mark another tally on your paper. He clicks his tongue as you return the pen to him. 
“I’ll get you to laugh one day, I swear it on Jupiter Jim.” 
“It’ll be a cold day in Hell, then.” You settle into a comfortable silence as you return to the repetitive task. Despite his failure, he doesn’t seem too disappointed. You lean a little more against his plastron, enjoying the comforting moment. You’re not ready to smile or laugh in front of people yet, and that’s okay. You know you have issues with self-confidence, and that’s okay! You’ll get through it someday. You peer up at him through your eyelashes, and for a fleeting moment, you wish you had the confidence to be free enough to share that with him. You return your gaze to the miniature console. He chuckles, plastron shaking ever so slightly. You keep your gaze locked on the console, refusing to jeopardize your composure. He speaks quietly: “Imagine just. Not fucking evolving legs. Go Grandpa Go!” 
A laugh tears its way out of your throat unexpectedly and you double forward. Your hand reflexively darts up to your face to cover your mouth, but to no avail. His hands wrap loosely around your wrists to hold them back, presumably so that you don’t cover your face again, and you glance at him as you giggle. He leans ever so slightly into your field of view, and his eyes shine with an unidentifiable emotion. You try and stop your giggles, but they just won’t stop coming! You lean your body into your hands, and subsequently, him. But instead he pulls his hands away from your wrists, albeit reluctantly. He cups your face with shaky hands, and now it’s your turn to loosely cradle his wrists. Your giggles die down slowly as you meet his shining and smiling gaze. No judgement. No scorn. 
You defy that anxious voice in the forefront of your mind to shoot him a grin back. And you hold your breath, waiting to hear what he’ll say to you. Your grin wavers as that anxious voice rips and tears at your thoughts, begging you to hide, to run away, to panic, to do anything else but what you’re doing now. 
He tilts his head gently, and his smile grows ever so slightly. Surprisingly, he’s the first to break the gaze as he dips his head down momentarily. For a brief moment, you wonder when you got so close together. But that thought quickly becomes the least of your worries as he looks up and begins to speak. “You are... so beautiful when you smile,” he whispers. 
You feel like you’re on fire, and suddenly you can hear your heart pounding in your ears, in your chest, in your stomach...He doesn’t know what he does to you, does he?
As though suddenly realizing what he said he straightens his posture, going completely rigid under your hands. He swallows slowly as his eyes roam your face, searching for a reaction. You take a deep breath, and shoot him another smile.  He takes a shaky breath of his own, and you swear you can feel his pulse quicken beneath his wrists. He shoots you his own smile, perfect as always.  “(Y/N),” he starts, “I really, really like you.”

Just thought it would be interesting to think about what pokemon starters the Ikemen vampire characters might pick! And maybe what kind of trainers they would be...well of course once Mc explained what a pokemon is...I hope this isn't boring
So here's the headcanon :
(These are just my opinions! Feel free to tell me what you think! There isn't like a wrong or right answer)
Arthur :
• Arthur finds all the starters of each generation interesting
• would probably pick a pokemon with an outgoing personality something like maybe Oshawott, Charmander, or Popplio
• Remembering when Arthur told us about when he was getting Vic...who's to say he won't make that same cute mistake twice (even with his godly observation skills, he's still capable of mistakes sometimes, rarely, besides it's cute) With a pokemon this time
• So Arthur chooses Popplio
• "don't you look like a fine gent, let's get along nicely"
• Eventually Popplio evolves into Brionne and then Primarina then he realizes his Primarina is a girl
• still sticks to his guns like he does with Vic
• He loves how pretty and majestic Primarina looks, and plenty of "Skirts" in town like his pretty Primarina too
• He would probably be decent at batting but with a beauty like Primarina maybe he would try Contests or Musicals instead, also lots of contest or musical trainers are women ;)
• Imagine Arthur dressing up Primarina as a detective!
• He would probably also be the kind of trainer to always stock up on full restores, revives, and full heals.
• He might be a pokemon breeder on the side it kinda suits him sort of, maybe eventually dabble a bit in pokemon doctoring
• He might meet Brock from the first season of Pokemon and become good friends
• Would probably be smart with like battle items too like X Attacks and X defenses and such
• perfect strategist and would set up terrains and use smart moves, would also have perfect offence and defense
• He and Primarina would probably be a delight to have a journey with
...
Theo :
• Would immediately look for a strong and or tough looking one
• No dog starter, that's too bad
• Stays the hell away from Litten
• Can sense great things from Charmander
• trains very hard everyday
• Charmander evolves into Charmeleon then Charizard and does not disappoint
• No one would want to mess with Theo and Charizard
• Focuses more on attack
• probably has like a potion somewhere right? Kinda forgets about that
• I can see him having a few similar personality traits from Paul from the pokemon diamond and pearl anime
• Once he becomes pokemon champion of the region he's in, he'd probably spend loads of time at the art galleries in different regions, it would be a whole new world for him
• Charizard would have a sweet tooth like Theo (They need some cute underneath that tough exterior)
• Charizard gets along well with Vincent's pokemon
• Would be a great Ally to have if your traveling and prone to regional evil team encounters
...
Vincent :
• Is a great friend to the shy pokemon of the bunch
• All the pokemon are at least a little drawn to his kind and caring nature, he's the snow white of the mansion residents
• I can see him eventually deciding on Chikorita
• He would probably paint pictures of it and have them put in pokemon art galleries, like the big one in Lumios city in the Kalos region
• It will look even prettier as it evolves
• C'mon Vincent and Meganium was meant to be
• He would probably be more into Contests but make no mistake, he will mop the floor with your pokemon if you dare battle him
• Would probably be great at defense and takes out pokemon in 1 hit
• He would probably immediately be good at making pokemon food, he doesn't want them to starve afterall
• His pokemon are close with Theo's pokemon
• He would probably be good about always having supplies on hand for pokemon
• Meganium would probably always have the same expressions as Vincent most of the time! Adorable!
• He Would be a delight to travel with
...
Will :
• Which one looks mischievous enough to keep up with him?
• Chimchar looks promising, great energy, and fire typing looks fun, what was fire symbolic of?
Well lots of things... but in this instance Hell.
• might even join an evil team just to write incredible plays for pokemon musicals, in secret of course, then possibly be a double agent for the good guys, really it depends on his mood.
• did I mention he adores pokemon musicals? New passion right here
• Although would probably beat the league to earn that respect, with you guessed it, un-evolved Chimchar like a madlad
• Chimchar would evolve into Monferno then Infernape later and be like a copy of Will
• He would probably lean more towards special attack and special defense
• Would probably at some point come across Jessie and James...just found his first play victims >:)
• Would be very entertaining to travel with, but he might dissapear if he find a scheme to cook up
...
Comte :
• Enjoys the beauty of all of them
• Has a hard time deciding on a typing
• Eventually he gets a sort of connection with Fennekin
• Both the beauty of the starter and his own handsomeness would complement eachother nicely
• He would probably get an Elite four position like very easily
• battling would totally be his thing, although his pokemon don't get dirty during battles
• focuses on speed
• is a very prepared trainer with items
• probably gets a big fanbase as large or larger than Raihan of the galar gyms
• He would have a very refined Braixen then Delphox
• Kalos is like home to this man, it is the france of the pokemon world afterall
• Might join a contest if the mood ever strikes him
• He and his team are the definition of elegance
• Would be incredible to travel with, although expect him to be swamped by fans everywhere
...
Leonardo :
• Litten reminds him of Lumiere
• Litten likes naps
• Leo just found a pokemon partner in a couple seconds
• Leo would probably be on a pokemon journey practically forever just living his life and just going with the flow
• He would EVENTUALLY get champion status...EVENTUALLY
• Would probably be a pokemon culinary genius (c'mon it's mostly berries anyways, and this man is talent galore)
• Litten would be the cat version of Leonardo
• It will eventually evolve...with time...EVENTUALLY...to Torracat then Incineraor
• Even as Incineroar it's like looking at Cat Leonardo
• His Incineroar would probably be the strongest Incineroar of all time and not give a damn about it
• His pokemon are very peaceful
• Leonardo might paint something for a pokemon gallery if Theo bugs him enough
• After having his Champion status he'll probably just move on to the next region
• a delight to travel with if you don't mind waking him up from naps occasionally
...
Isaac :
• So much to discover
• Where to Start? Probably with a starter pokemon
• He has a hard time opening up to a connection, but Cyndaquil reminds him of his own pet at home, and it's quiet enough to focus on research
• Eventually he picks Cyndaquil
• Isaac has started on the road to being a pokemon professor
• He is an impeccable assistant
• Will probably be most interested in ultra space and ultra beasts
• Hell yes he's going into space, it's for science
• Cyndaquil will probably be a cute assistant to Isaac, making sure he isn't cold when he falls asleep at his desk, giving cuddles when needed, and being a sweetheart
• This type of assistance warms Isaac's heart, Cyndaquil was the right decision
• Isaac isn't the best at batting, it's stressful and he's all over the place, why would he willingly put his little Cyndaquil in danger?
• But when he does he's quite defensive and uses items a lot
• Cyndaquil would probably learn to be great at finding space samples Issac might want
• Cyndaquil probably would have a hard time getting necessary experience to evolve, but in time he would probably evolve battling against ultra beasts and saving Isaac from them
• Isaac would be very nice to travel with but be warned he is training to be a professor, so expect him to stop at labs.
...
Dazai :
• There are bird Pokemon that remind him of Bunta but he wants something different this time
• Foakie, it seems good at stealth, which means it'll be incredible at climbing through windows
• Dazai and Froakie immediately get along, even though Froakie isn't as much into pranks, jokes, or teasing like Dazai is with the mansion residents
• They are both kinda relaxed
• Froakie is fond of the slight chaos energy Dazai seems to emit sometimes, it's fun chaos not evil chaos :)
• Dazai appreciates the more slightly down to earth nature of Froakie
• Dazai having a water type now would probably try Mantine surfing and probably make friends with Grimsley due to similar clothing styles and having water type pokemon
• Dazai would probably have the most unexpected pokemon journey out of the residents
• He would probably get to becoming a pro Mantine surfer.
• Froakie would follow that path too
• Froakie would eventually evolve into Frogadier and then Greninja due to battles with Grimsley
• He would be fun to hang around
...
Sebastian :
• Would probably go with Squirtle due to familiarity and nostalgia (he is from your time and Squirtle is quite popular, lots of people have a soft spot for gen one)
• He won't waste a second and get battling to make it evolve
• Now imagine this guy having a Blastoise to wash laundry.
He'll never spend too much time washing again.
• even though Blastoise is bulky Sebastian will happily train it to be a good butler like he is
• Sebastian will probably go on a pokemon journey that leads him to the Unova striaton city gym.
• Why? It's like a gym made for butlers! Did you see the uniforms?
• he'll probably still keep tabs on what the residents are doing too somehow
• He'll probably have fun learning the history of this place although re-learning history even if it is a new one might be a slap in the face
• He could probably have Blastoise do small bursts of water or a gentle bubble beam to clean hard surfaces and windows too
• He would possibly make friends with Az from Kaloa and Hapu from Alola while learning fun history facts
• traveling with him would be pleasant
....
Napoleon :
• He would pick Piplup
• Was there even competition? Ok maybe Charizard was an attractive offer but Piplup becomes an Emperor it's practically screaming his name.
• He would waste no time meticulously and throughly training it and his team
• He will have an Empoleon in no time
• He will probably be on par with all the strongest trainers
• Will probably become a pokemon master easily and will have beaten the league in every region
• probably feels good to pokemon battle, it's refreshing and fun, will probably battle Jean from time to time.
• hard to describe what he focuses on most, but probably special attack
• It would act just like Napoleon
• Napoleon probably likes the idea of battles with no death
• Napoleon will see Empoleon as a close partner and friend
• He probably has a bunch of Pp up's and Hp up's in his bag, not many restores or potions, c'mon this guy doesn't lose he doesn't need them
• He would probably be thrilling to travel with, like having your own 3d action novel play out before your eyes
...
Jean :
• holy boi is lost here, they're all kind of strange but eventually he gives in and picks one.
• Sinvy
• it's calm and honestly a bit mysterious
• He would train his Snivy well, it would be just as strong as him
• it wouldn't take long to evolve
• he'll probably become good friends with it, tell it all about where he comes from
• Jean would probably be the most homesick :(
• He would probably pick a job like looking after legendary pokemon shrines and temples
• He'll probably run into the other residents a lot
• I feel like for him to like it here something big should happen, like meeting Arceus and having a battle
• Then he and his now Serperior would probably bond over that moment
• after that he would probably come to love pokemon
...
Mozart :
• He was partial to Popplio Primarina but Arthur already claimed it
• Well all of them are cute and kind of interesting, and he's not against teaching it music
• Torchic it is since it's a bird and birds sing well
• Now Mozart's Torchic is quite musically gifted so they actually get along quite well, it can also dance nicely.
• He eventually evolved it into it's final evolution Blaziken with the help of Jean and Napoleon
• Mozart will probably write music for pokemon musicals and contests
• Probably during a heated session of music writing, he and Blaziken will get so in sync that he discovers that mega evolution is a thing that exists
• He will probably make writing music popular in this universe
• He might also be quite homesick
• But he does enjoy Blaziken's company
• He isn't too big on batting without the help of Jean and Napoleon but he's probably offensive rather than defensive
• He is pretty a good trainer and carries all the pokemon essentials
• It would probably be sweet and bit exhausting traveling with him, he'll get loads of music ideas
.....
(I'll also include the unholy trio, Vlad, Faust, and Charles because why not)
...
Vlad :
• Would pick Bulbasaur
• Venusaur is a huge flower monster c'mon, a deadly flower has Vlad written all over it
• He would probably be excellent at training it so evolution would be easy
• He would probably be an elite four
• He probably focuses more on attack during battles
• He may or may not be on a quest to catch a legendary or all of them
• He might create a new evil team...maybe
• He really does look like a good evil team boss, and Venusaur can look threatening if raised to be threatening
• Venusaur would adore Vlad, almost worship him
• Vlad will make it the prettiest flower and care for Venusaur well
• Mega evolution would be unlocked for him
• He would probably be an interesting fellow to travel with
• would probably like pokemon
• Ultra space travel would probably be a thing for him once he and Venusaur get ahold of Lunala or Solagelo
...
Charles :
• Needs something as clingy and energetic as he is
• Scorbunny it is
• They would probably feel a magical connection instantly
• He would train very hard with it although battling might be difficult because he gets worried when pokemon faint
• He is probably a big fan of Gigantamax and Dynamax
• loves the loud Stadium music in Galar
• He would probably want to be a gym trainer and take over the galar fire gym once Kabu retires
• He has mastered attack and defense
• Charles would probably cuddle Scorbunny a lot
• He would still cuddle Cinderace once it's all evolved
• He would probably also be good at cooking
• He probably has a lot of potions a stuff too just incase
• He probably likes watching how cute Cinderace is when it's eating berries
• He probably loves Cinderace's fluffy ears
• He really likes how fun pokemon are
• He is probably really pumped and fun to travel with, some aspects of his personality might be slightly Ash ketchum-ish
...
Faust :
• Rowlet's final evolution is a ghost type you say?
• He'll take it
• He would probably also be a pokemon professor, but not quite like in a professor Oak kind of way, he also wouldn't be much like Isaac either, He'll probably resemble evil team scientists bit he'll have a heart like Colress from Unova
• He'll probably be interested in studying Giratina or Yveltal for starters
• He probably wouldn't get along with Rowlet off the bat because it's scared that it might be dissected
• But Rowlett will see his sweet side and they will eventually be inseparable friends
• Faust will love the ability spirit shackle that the final evolution of Rowlett, Decidueye possesses
• Evolving it wouldn't be a pokemon for Faust
• He has a whole vast world to research now, he's probably on cloud nine
• He's probably excellent at batting even if he doesn't do it that much
• He might join an evil team if they fall in line with his plans
• Traveling with him wouldn't be boring that's for sure

1-5 for the pokemon asks!
Ooh, thanks Shun!!
1. Who was your first starter Pokémon?
Charmander! At first, I thought I chose Squirtle because in almost every game I’ve played, I choose the water starter. But in FireRed (my first Pokémon game!) I distinctly remember seeing Suicune as my Roaming Legendary and apparently that would only be possible if I picked Charmander (since people who chose Squirtle would’ve had Raikou as their Roaming Legendary).
2. What was your first region?
Kanto!
3. Favourite starter?
Oooh, this one is tough!! I almost always pick water types, but my absolute favourite is a tie between Fennekin and Popplio.
So many people hate on Popplio but I love it. It’s just a funky little guy and I love Primarina’s design too. Popplio and Fennekin are two of the only starters where I actually like the final evolution (Looking at you Tepig, Grookey, and Litten).
4. Least favourite starter?
Tepig. I really don’t like Emboar. And that hurts my soul, bc I think Tepig is just super cute!!!
The only reason this isn’t a tie between Tepig and Grookey is because G-max Rillaboom kinda slaps. But I also really don’t like Rillaboom’s design either.
5. Favourite region?
Another toughie, but I think I’ll go with Kalos. A big part of my reasoning being the music for the different towns. Specifically the theme for Anistar city is sooo good! I also love the layout for Lumiose city and that’s also where the Hex Maniac Easter egg happened and I shit my pants.
Though, I do wish they had Pokéstar Studios like they did in Unova, because the movie star content was my favourite part of Pokémon Black 2.
Thanks for asking!! I love gushing about Pokémon! 💙

A pretty short read based on one of the prompts by @writing-ideas-inc
It’s a little rushed but should be understandable
I hope you like it!
(Warning: Horace has passed in the story, I didn’t want to have to put that in but the prompt has that so...)
Soulmates. That was something always in the back of Ash Ketchum’s head. He had a fennekin tattooed on his wrist, Serena had a pikachu. That meant they were soulmates right?
They were, until Serena kissed him in the airport. When that happened, it felt entirely wrong to Ash.
When Serena arrived at Alola and confessed her feelings, he told her he didn’t feel the same. She was a little distraught, but they agreed to part as friends. The thing that surprised Ash was that the fennekin on his wrist never changed.
When Ash met Goh, it was love at first sight… until he saw that Goh had a chikorita on the inside of his wrist. Goh already had a soulmate.
Ash just pushed his feelings away and went on adventures and explored with the other boy, until one day almost 2 years after meeting Goh, Ash couldn’t take it anymore.
The boys were sitting together in the field of flowers they met in.
“Goh, there’s something I have to tell you.” He blushed a little and continued.
“I like you, in a more than just friends way. I know this makes it awkward because I have a soulmate and you have a soulmate-”
“Wait,” Goh cut him off. “My soulmate, his name was Horace. He adventured around the world and got injured and passed from his injury.” Goh looked at Ash with a sad expression. “I guess I don’t have a soulmate?”
This uplifted Ash at the same time as feeling bad for his crush.
Goh didn’t stop talking though. “But, you have a soulmate. You should be doing things with him or her and not me.” Goh turned away while Ash put his hand on Goh’s to reassure him.
“Goh. She may be my soulmate, but we’re just friends. I don’t love her. I love you.” Both Goh and Ash were impossibly red now, but Ash continued.
“I choose you. Isn’t that the truest form of love? To choose someone over and over again even if everything’s not perfect? I don’t care about my soulmate or destiny or any of that. I care about you. That’s it.”
Goh was surprised and asked, “Don’t you want your soulmate to be happy?”
“She is happy.” Ash pulled out his phone and scrolled to a recent post on Pokégram. “Look, here she is with her new girlfriend.”
Then, Goh kissed him. Ash was shocked, but that didn’t stop him from kissing Goh back.
Then, when nobody was looking, the tattoos changed. Goh had a pikachu, Ash a scorbunny. Soulmates can change.

Silvally, grookey, Pikachu, latios, musharna, farfetch'd, dunsparce yamper, vivillion, minior 1/6
Silvally: favorite and least favorite pokemon types?
My favorite is a toss up of normal types and water types and my least favorite i think is bug types 🤷‍♂️
Grookey: which is the best and worst starter trio?
Best trio: chikorita, tododile and cyndaquil
Worst: chespin, fennekin, and froakie im sorry but these guys are the least memorable to me I had to look up who all was on this starter team
Pikachu: if I could have any pokemon irl which would it be and why?
Ok so id love to have a furret but they are just big ferret cats but I'd have to choose Latias. I LOVED the pokemon movie with Latias and Latios. I really want a pokemon who can take me flying. Whilst also being invisible. Invisibility is key for keeping a magical beast to yourself.
Latios: which pokemon region would you want to live in?
I have no idea?? I dont have enough knowledge about everywhere. Just put me somewhere warm by the sea thank you.
Musharna: dream pokemon game?
All I want is for the pokemon company to make games again where you can complete the whole pokedex by yourself without having to have an internet hookup to trade or exclusive events where you can only get certain pokemon. I just want to collect them all. Just let me.
Farfetched: whats something you wish they would base a pokemon off of?
God is there anything left??? All I can really think of is a moose? Maybe...one of those little tomato pin cushions could be cute as a ghost type?
Dunsparce: which pokemon do you think deserves an evolution?
Ditto. Make him gloopier. And eevee deserves an evolution where its just normal type again. Just slightly bigger and fluffier but the same basically.
Yamper: how do you decide on your pokemon team? Do you choose nicknames?
Usually the cutest ones as I come across them and I just train them up. Always good nicknames.
Vivillion: show my face! Hmmmmm
Nooooooo~ 🎶
Minior: whats a weird physical feature that you have that you kind of like having?
Big freckles under my eyes that look like decals.....or clown makeup.....

★·.·´¯`·.·★ @sereina ★·.·´¯`·.·★ 
The card was left in the lab, the name of the intended recipient neatly etched onto the front. It was a common Kalosian design, featuring a Fennekin all dressed up in a Santa outfit, but it felt like a good choice given her choice in starter. 
                              Dear Miss Serena,
                              I do hope you receive this in time for the holidays. 
                              I’m not sure if we’ve met, so allow me to introduce myself. I’m Leon - you might have heard about my marriage to Dani and subsequent move to Kalos at the start of this year. We might have attended some of the same meetings during your time as Champion, but I must confess my memory fails me here. I’m sure you can understand, as with how many people were present at any one time it was near impossible to single out a specific face from the crowd, and I have no doubt your Champion schedule was just as busy as mine.
                              But I’m not writing this to talk about the past. Rather, I chose to use this festive season as a bridge to offer my assistance to those who might want it. As I’m sure you already know, having a reliable support network is invaluable, and even if you choose not take my help it might be a comfort just to know that the offer always stands. I know that that knowledge has certainly helped me before.
                              So, should you ever need or want anything, you are more than welcome to reach out to my team and I. We will help you as best we can.
                                                                                                      - Leon  👑

You know i’ve been back on my pokemon obsession and the more I think about it. .  . i think i have a higher preference for the grass starters than I do the fire starters and i usually default to fire types . . . Like I love fire types they’re my fav typing after dragon, but i get more excited over more of the grass types than i do the fire starters if not the same and they’re at war.

Dear Game Freak,
I am not an avid Pokemon fan.
I have not finished the main quest of a Pokemon game thus far.
I do not own every game.
HOWEVER
I have nearly completed the pokedex in both of the two games I own. I played all the way through Gale of Darkness on the GameCube and grew up playing Pokemon Snap. I may not be a hardcore battle-hungry player, but some of my fondest memories are of playing Emerald in the back of my family's car on the way to my grandparents' house for Thanksgiving. I watch the anime frequently. I would love nothing more than to leap into the world of Pokemon in a real-time fight against my rival. I've always wanted an open world to explore, to have misadventures like Ash and his friends as we spot a Mankey in the distance.
You gave me that with Sword and Shield.
You've promised a massive open area where Pokemon abound and spotting one isn't restricted to an encounter in the grass. I have never been more excited to join your world of wonder, combat, and camaraderie. At long last, we can step into the game in a natural visual splendor that hasn't been seen since Snap.
But you also took something away.
You took away my best friend.
You took away Torch.
Your Dex was leaked. And among the names on the list, Torchic, Combusken, and Blaziken did not appear. You may see this as an insignificant issue that most fans will get over eventually. That might be true. But let me tell you a story.
When I was small, my parents took me to a Best Buy. We had just gotten GameBoy Advances for Christmas - the clamshell SPs that fit nicely in your pocket. Mine was blue. I still have it. My parents decided I and my sister could each choose a game for our new consoles. I could barely read at the time, being so young, but near the checkout on a rack, at just about eye level, Pokemon Emerald caught my attention. My sister decided to get Sapphire, and our excitement as we rode home was electric.
Beginning that game was magical. I'd never played a real Pokemon game before, but I knew I loved Ash and his friends, and I'd played through Snap dozens of times. Finally, I was really a Pokemon trainer! When told to save the professor from a wild Zigzagoon, I had no knowledge of what the starters were or what they looked like, but I knew I liked fire. With a single press of a button, my future was decided. Out popped a Torchic, orange and fierce despite its size. Torch. My first Pokemon.
I know it may be strange to grow such a strong emotional bond with some strings of programming in a tiny plastic cartridge, but Torch and I were as thick as thieves. We explored and learned and grew together. My Torchic evolved into Combusken at the same time I graduated kindergarten. Combusken became Blaziken as I learned to play the piano. When kids at school made fun of me, Torch was there. Torch was strong. Torch was fierce. Torch didn't let his defeats define him, and together we could get through anything. Though I never finished the story, Torch and I dominated Hoenn and reigned supreme in the tournaments with my cousins. We adventured together for years. We were partners.
Or should I say, we are partners.
I didn't get another Pokemon game until late junior high, when I got a 3DS with the release of Ocarina of Time 3D. As always, I was a tad late to the party, so it wasn't until a few months after it came out that I was gifted with Pokemon Y. I missed the Torchic event, and though I was disappointed, Fennekin was just as lovable. I played it for a year or so, still jumping back to Emerald now and then to pick at the story.
When I got to high school, though, I met a hardcore fan. He had every game. Every game. A complete chain of games. From Emerald all the way up to Y. A complete trading path.
My friend dug out all of his games and spent an hour or two trading Torch up through the generations for me. The Blaziken I have in Y, the most recent Pokemon I own, is the same Blaziken I've had since the beginning. My companion since kindergarten. My partner. My friend.
But I guess he doesn't get to come with me any further now, huh?
So that's that. I've cancelled my preorder. I know you still won't regret the exclusion of a national dex. I know this won't do anything to change it. But I hope you know just how you've betrayed me. I hope you can see just how much you've hurt your fans - I know I'm not the only person with a story like this. Perhaps a loss of a single preorder doesn't mean much to you, but understand that you've made a grave mistake. Whether your sales are affected or not, we won't forget what you've done to our friends. Even if you bring them back later, know this:
I know what you did, and I will never forgive you.

dfkjlahdkjfhadskjflhk Mystery Dungeon hype!!!!!
I hope they keep the quiz, but have it like they did in Super Mystery Dungeon where they showed you what you got and you could choose your Pokemon from there.
They gotta keep at least SOME of the same questions from the original, I mean hands coming out of a toilet, aliens invading and breaking rotten eggs in your room..... things that happen in your normal everyday life right?????
I liked that the results were actual natures from the main series, I hope that’s still a thing!
We don’t need some Pokemon being limited to one gender anymore, it’s 2020. Some girls like Psyduck.
I hope they didn’t bastardize the portraits too much! I didn’t like the ones in Gates to Infinity, they were too flat graphically and emotionally :U
oh man I can’t decide if I want the starters to be the original ones again or all of the starters from every generation since then... on one hand, Eevee and Meowth, on the other hand, Popplio and Fennekin!
If there are non-starter Pokemon as starters like the original, I hope that all of them can be the partner as well! It always seemed kinda arbitrary which ones could be which, at least they fixed it in Time/Darkness. (Then unfixed it in Sky, with Meowth and Munchlax.)
I’ve seen Lucario in preview images, hopefully that means that they’ve put in Pokemon from after gen 3 and not just Lucario! Did they learn their lesson from FRLG?
Are they gonna be postgame? Maybe that’s a good compromise?
AT LEAST add in new moves and abilities, come on
I am KIND OF OKAY if they keep HMs in this game, even if they’ve been removed in the main games - as long as they keep the thing where they can just sit in the inventory and work that way as well as actually knowing the move.
PLEASE have the inventory be a decent size! Do the Time/Darkness thing where it increases! 20 slots is PAINFUL!
omg they’re gonna have the old music remastered and I CAN’T ;n; my childhooooood
I have had the Tiny Woods theme stuck in my head since the announcement send help
How many old mechanics are gonna stay? Friend Areas? Wonder Mail? Saving before certain dungeons??? (ugh I hope not that one)
What about ones from other games in the series? Is that recruiting tree thing from Super Mystery Dungeon gonna be there? What about the construction stuff from Gates to Infinity? The cafe from Explorers? Egg hatching??
I think the evolution mechanics have returned from the other games, Mega Evolution too? NEAT
OH OH what if there were some mechanics from the Japan-only games? Wasn’t there one where they stacked on top of each other? THAT’D BE RAD
I kinda want Friend Areas to return but kinda not.... they’re cute but annoying to manage so IDK
I cried at the plot when I was a kid so am I gonna cry again this time? PROBABLY
Other remakes have added dramatic zooms and cool cutscene things so I hope there are those!
On the other hand, if they change the tone of an emotional scene or ruin a funny one by taking it overboard I’m gonna call foul! Looking at you, beginning cutscene to Winter Tundra in Spyro 2 Reignited.
They can’t do two different versions with this game! There’s only one! No version exclusives! And the box art is PRECIOUS!
aaaaaaaaa EXCITE
doo Doo doo DOO Doo doo Doo doo Doo doo Doo doo DOO
I’m gonna go play the demo bc HYYYYPE
