#This Gladion is a bit different than the one from my Future Days AU haha

[shima-draws]

AWRIIIIIGHT here's tons of headcanons for my Sunnylemon future AU 👀

-Takes place 5 years after SM, so Ash and Clemont are 21, and Gladion is 22

-Ash is the current reigning champion of Kanto (and so far, he’s undefeated!) He was the first champion of Alola but that title was taken by Gladion a couple years later, who challenged him for a rematch and won

-Ash primarily spends his time traveling to all sorts of regions and helping out trainers and their Pokemon! He also spends lots of time working on the Pokedex to help out all the professors. And battling. Lots of battling lol

-Gladion helps the Aether Foundation with their research but also does a lot of self training as well. He's particularly interested in the science used to help Pokemon like Silvally and the UBs. Clemont helps him with this! Gladion's also the leader of the new generation of Ultra Guardians (mostly new trainers now, but the original Alola Squad + Ash and Clemont will always come help if they happen to be free)

-Clemont is still the Gym Leader of Lumiose City (and a very impressive one at that). He also has his own lab near the gym, where he works with other scientists to create inventions helpful to both people and Pokemon! A lot of them are electric-type related but they dedicate time to other types as well

-The three of them live together in a cabin on the outskirts of Nimbasa City. Clemont has a device that works as a portal so they can easily traverse regions in a day--it's made with the help of Hoopa's rings, and Clemont implemented that technology for the three of them to use!

-All three of them have keystones and z-rings. Ash mega evolves his Charizard, Clemont has an Ampharos, and Gladion has a Garchomp

-If you're curious about Bonnie she works at a daycare center where she helps take care of Pokemon! At this point she's already traveled through Kalos, Sinnoh and Galar along with Max

-Clemont and Gladion are both taller than Ash. Is he bitter? Yes he is.

-Clemont is the youngest but between the three of them he's the most responsible one lmao

-Both Gladion and Clemont's sleep schedules are wrecked since they stay up til god forsaken hours of the morning, mostly due to their jobs (and in Clemont's case, a late night inventioning streak). Ash literally has to drag them both to bed all the time and get them to rest. (Ash, meanwhile, doesn't let anything mess with his sleeping hours. He also sleeps like the dead.)

-Clemont "The future is now thanks to science!" Ash "Science is so amazing!" Gladion "Innovation at it's finest, huh?"

-They're basically nerd/jock/goth solidarity right

-Gladion and Clemont get heart attacks from how often Ash does something reckless (not as much as he was younger but STILL THIS WILD CHILD)

-Gladion's the only one that can really keep up with Clemont when it comes to super technological stuff, Ash just sits there and watches them talk nerd for hours with a super dreamy expression like "My boyfriends are so smart"

-Going off of this, Gladion usually gives Clemont's inventions way more creative names in response to his usual crazy long ones

-Interviewers @ Clemont: How's it feel to be dating two of the most powerful trainers in the world

Clemont, starry eyed and breathless: Amazing

-They all battle each other frequently. To train or even when they're getting serious--they really enjoy it. And they take care of each other's Pokemon and handle them all the time! Their Pokemon are super used to rotating between the three of them. Silvally in particular is really touchy but its super comfortable around Clemont and will sometimes just crawl into his lap and lie there :')

-Team Rocket have retired from their evil ways and spend lots of time playfully bugging the three of them. (They'll never admit it but they love Ash and are very protective of him--"You'll always be a twerp, but you're our favorite twerp") Pikachu and Meowth are best friends. Jessie keeps in close touch with Serena, May and Dawn and they discuss contest/showcase strategies. James works at a Pokemon rehab center and usually comes to Ash for advice. Meowth hosts a radio talk show. Wild, right? (Gladion has a suspicion that Jessie and James are dating but nothing official has been said.)

-Ash can't go a day without giving his welcome home kisses. Gladion and Clemont will hop out of the Hoopa ring and he's on them with smooches in SECONDS

-Ash and Pikachu have broken the highest amount of battling records in history. Of course they have.

-Do not ask these boys about battle strategies because they'll just go on for HOURS AND HOURS

-Clemont and Gladion actually met at a reunion party after Ash's Alola Championship win. Ash was so ecstatic to see Clemont he nearly bowled him over. Gladion and Clemont then spent a long while discussing their adventures with Ash and immediately picked up on the fact that they both had crushes on him--they were super civil about it tho, kinda mentioning "He's too dense to notice so really the chances of either of us actually winning him over are low" (while they side-eyed Misty and Serena who also had a thing for Ash before). Ofc at this point Ash had also liked them both for a while but couldn't really understand those feelings fully, they just confused him, so he nervously let it be until both of them finally decided to do something about it LOL

-Gladion and Clemont, upon meeting each other: Oh no he cute too

-Lusamine, Meyer and Delia love their sons. All of them. SO much

-Lillie & Bonnie: I can't believe my brother has TWO wonderful boyfriends

-They're not engaged yet but there's PLANS FLOATIN AROUND (their Pokemon, Team Rocket, and all the rest of their friends are in on it and are trying their hardest to drop hints all the time)

OKAY I SHOULD STOP THERE LOL BUT YEAH AS YOU CAN SEE I have a lot of ideas for this and my brain can't stop I love them so much
