Ooo is it ok if u write a drayton x reader where reader is really reckless and always takes on challenges such as doing 7 star terra raids and goes off on different adventures, and he gets worried and protective and the rest of the bb elite 4 find it cute and funny
Hope this is what you asked for. I'm kinda bad at writing this stuff 😅
Tag along | Drayton x Reader
Pokémon Scarlett and Violet Indigo Disk DLC Spoilers ahead!
After one to many raids where you get hurt. Drayton decided to finally ask you to let him come with you. Though things didn't go exactly as he had hopped.
Warnings: Small argument, Fluff, protective Drayton
SPOILER WARNING: No spoiler warning. Unless you don't know character names
Tumblr media
“Drayton, I'm not so sure about this…” Your voice cut through the silence of the BB League room. Drayton had asked you completely out of the blue to let him tag along on your next raid. Which happened to be a black crystal 7star. “You’ve never even done a raid before.”
Leaning against the table, he simply turns his head and smiles, his pearly fangs flashing at you for a moment before pleading his case. “So? I’m a fast learner, I have good Pokémon too, gave you a challenge, didn’t I? Plus, you make one hell of a teacher.”
“True I do.” A snarky smile crosses your face for a moment, the sound of Crispin snickering in the corner at the self-confidence. “But even if I could show you about raid battling. I'm going to a 7 star… these aren't exactly teaching material. Especially given what's inside the crystal.”
“What’s inside? A larger than average Scorbunny? If so Drayton really should go.” Lacey teased, prodigy Drayton’s face with a gleeful smile. His own face scowled slightly at the remark.
“Maybe it’s an angry Trapinch coming back to taunt him! That would make for a spicy dish!” Crispin added, spinning his pan around.
Drayton’s head snapped up, and he stared at his fiery friend. “We do not talk about the Trapinch man! My ass still has NOT recovered from it… neither had my ego.”
“Think more… giant psychic mouse thing with serious anger issues.” You admit holding back the laugh that just wanted to leave your lungs.
“Well, that wasn’t what I expected… But hey! That's never stopped me before. Don’t forget which one of us helped you with the legendary hunt.” Drayton pestered, still clutching onto any string he can, to convince you to let him come. Anything to give him that edge up on you, if the dragon egg eyes won’t work. Then good old fashion pleading will have to do - and he’s about 5 seconds from doing that.
“Drayton, I love you, but I can't bring myself to let you come with me on this one! If it was a 4 star then yeah totally. But this is huge! These sorts of raids, I can't bring someone so inexperienced into the palace. I wouldn’t even bring Kieran!” You argued, it was no surprise that your pleas fell upon stubborn ears.
“That’s exactly why I want to go with you! It pains me whenever you come back from one of your raid trips hurt… or bruised. And I can't help but think to myself that I could have done something to help you. Take the load off of you!” His voice cracked slightly, not out of sadness or hurt, but more out of the fact he couldn’t do something to protect you. Drayton knows you can handle yourself, you’ve proven that to him on many occasions. But at the end of the day, you are still his treasure, and he wants to protect you, needs to. “Just let me come along this once! If I cause you problems, I’ll never ask again, just please humour me.”
Before you could even give him a response, Lacey’s voice cut through the tension, it was soft-spoken but clear. “Come on, let him… let him.”
“SHHH. It’s getting good…” Crispin's equally soft voice cut after hers, somehow eating popcorn. Where did he get that, why are you asking? He’s the chef, not me.
“Can you four stop bickering. You are ruining my concentration.” Amary’s scolded, the sound of her pocket watch snapping closed followed her voice. “In case you 3 have forgotten, we have a meeting to get to with the director. You have 5 minutes, don’t be tardy.” 
Amary’s left the room not long after. The 4 of you left dumbfounded in the room, it wasn't until Drayton’s voice chimed up again. “Okay, I was not the only one who had no idea she was in the room, right?”
“I think she spawned in?” Crispin answered with a question of his own.
“How long has she been here? I've been here all morning? Did she drink an invisibility potion… What does she know that we don’t?” Lacey’s brain scratched as well.
“I think it's like a Spinarak thing. If you stand still, they can’t see you.” Your fellow companions laugh at your remark, it's a dumb reason, but what isn’t. During the laughter, you take your chance to leave. Grabbing your bag and heading for the door, only for the sound of it shutting in your face to follow. Peering up, you notice Drayton’s somehow moved from the other side of the room to close the door. His face was one of worry. He couldn't keep eye contact with you, anytime he tried, he just looked back at the door then at you again; as if silently asking you to let him come with you. His face reminded you of the first time he admitted he loved you. That silent protective plea of his. Never spoken through words. With a deep sigh of defeat, you take a step back from the door and stretch your hand out towards it. “After you, dragon boy.”
“YES! I WIN!” Drayton proclaimed jumping up for a moment fist in the air victorious. Lacey elbowed him directly in the ribs moments later, Crispin crying of laughter on the floor trying desperately not to whack himself in the face with it. “Ow right, right. Thank you, love! NOW LET'S GO KICK SOME MOUSE BUTT!”

i love to imagine balls or formal dances at the pokémon scarlet and violet academies - like the purple/orange themes and the pokémon aaaaa
can i pretty please get an arven x reader (gn! - but preferably wearing a floor length dress?) either hcs or a fic of him being your date to the dance? maybe a bit of nsfw/suggestive content in between or after the dance?? i ADORE all your arven work btw <3
Oh man I've been low-key thinking about a prom thing for the academy... Mainly because I came across my prom pics and I remembered how slick I looked in that suit and how amazing my GF looked. She bought ME flowers can you believe it it was so amazing
Sorry this took ages I'm a very lazy man. Also, in an effort to keep this as gender neutral as possible, I didn't explicitly describe the reader's outfit. I left it up to your imagination though!!!
As a small apology for not putting the reader in a gown, I drew the friend group in their outfits for this. Can find that right here on my main blog!
Tumblr media
Arven X GN Reader
The academy hosts a yearly ball, and champions have to participate. Unfortunately for Arven, his partner is a Champion, and forced him to come. He's not one for big social gatherings, but at least they're there to make it easier...
Reader is the SV protagonist, and is 18+. Same with Arven. Reader's appearance is left vague, and they have a Skeledirge. Reader is mentioned to be wearing something in their favorite color, and also mentions feeling overdressed at one point. Their clothing is not described other than that. Arven's outfit is explicitly described though.
Author's note: An interaction between Arven and the Champ gets a little spicy, but there's nothing explicit. Just wandering hands and making out. Not a smut, but just be aware of that!! Also background Penny/Nemona because I love them.
🚨⚠️ CONTAINS MAJOR SV SPOILERS!!! ⚠️🚨
Tumblr media
Arven had never been a fan of big gatherings. Too many people clumped together in one place, too much noise and clamor. It always overloaded his brain.
Today, though, he was putting that distaste aside for ____. The Academy was hosting a formal ball of sorts for it's students, and attendance was mandatory for the two Champion representatives. ____ was less than thrilled about this news, and had basically begged Arven to come with them.
What kind of boyfriend would he have been if he declined?
Arven was currently standing in front of the mirror in his dorm, anxiously fixing his lilac blazer. He owned a grand total of one formal outfit, and he worried over whether or not it suited him. He'd tied his hair up at ____'s request, though he was concerned the hairtie he'd used would snap.
"What do you think, Mabosstiff? Is this- nice enough? Fancy enough?" He asked his buddy without really thinking, looking at the Pokemon through the mirror. Mabosstiff lifted his head, tail thumping against the floor.
"Wuff!" He barked helpfully, standing up to trundle up to Arven. The trainer gave him a worried pat on the head, sighing mournfully.
"Thanks, bud... I am in way over my head." Arven huffed, rubbing the bridge of his nose. He perked up when he heard a knock at the door, adjusting his jacket one more time before hustling to open it.
____ looked about as anxious as he was, continually fixing their hair even if it already looked nice.
"Oh- H-Hey." They cleared their throat, rubbing the back of their neck. "You look good with your hair up like that. Not that you don't always look good, but... It's nice to see both of your eyes."
"Thanks!" Arven mindlessly tried to hook his thumbs in pockets that weren't there. ____ was wearing an outfit that suited them perfectly, in a color he knew was their favorite - they looked absolutely stunning. He probably could've just stood there and stared for the rest of the night. "You- you look incredible. I mean that, by the way."
"Oh, you. I feel so overdressed, it's ridiculous..." ____'s tension seemed to die as they laughed, walking forward to wrap him in a tight hug he happily returned. "...I'm really nervous. I have to give a whole speech, and I am not looking forward to it."
"You'll do amazing, I know you will." He reassured them, pressing a feather-light kiss to their forehead. "You always do amazing."
____ sighed, lingering on the spot for a few moments longer before they released Arven. Their arm was still looped in his, though, keeping him close to them.
"Alright, I'm ready as I'll ever be. Let's go find Penny and Nemona." They sighed. Arven gave them a final reassuring squeeze before they went off together.
The Academy's halls were oddly empty, considering how many students it had - it seemed most had already flocked down to where the event was taking place. There were a few stragglers here and there, mostly students waiting to meet up with their friends.
"Nemona said she's in the plaza already... Damn, that probably means we have to do our big speeches soon." ____ huffed, nervously scrolling through their texts. "Oh, man... You know how I said I was ready earlier? I'm not. I'm definitely not. What if I stutter and screw up, or I lose my train of thought? This is in front of *everyone*!"
"Hey, hey, you'll be alright. You can handle anything - you saved the entire region from an ecological disaster. You ride around on the back of a legendary pokemon, and you caught pokemon that are complete enigmas AND made them your friends!" Arven paused to grab their face, squishing their cheeks in his palms. "One speech won't hurt you. It doesn't matter if you stutter or lose your train of thought, or forget what you wanted to say entirely. You are absolutely incredible."
The two trainers were silent for a long moment, before ____ sniffled. Arven panicked.
"Oh, I didn't mean to make you cry- please don't cry, I'm sorry!!" He wrapped them up in a hug, one they reciprocated shakily.
"You're too good to me!" ____ exclaimed dramatically, burying their face in his chest. "Ohhh, I don't mean to get so emotional!"
"Deep breaths, just settle... In and out." Arven ran a hand down their back in an attempt to soothe them. They went quiet after a minute or so, wiping away at their eyes.
"Okay, I'm okay. I'm alright." ____ seemed to be assuring themselves more than Arven, which he thought was a smart choice. He continued to hold them even after they made to pull away, keeping an arm around their shoulders. "I've got this. All I've gotta do is- is talk about how the Academy helped me."
"You can do it. If not for me, do it for Mabosstiff." Arven joked lightly, and ____ laughed along.
"Right. Do it for Mabosstiff... And Skeledirge." They nodded wisely, and he hummed in agreement. The couple finally made their way down to the plaza - the faculty had set up a rudimentary stage, evidently for the sole purpose of speeches. The rest of the school plaza was decorated with lights, which made the whole place look lovely. Students milled about with their Pokemon, and staff chatted amiably with eachother.
Arven spotted Penny near the foot of the stairs - she was more dressed up than he'd ever seen her before, wearing a pastel dress and a fluffy coat. It almost reminded him of her eeveelutions... She was probably inspired by them. Penny was standing next to Nemona, chatting with Giacomo, Mela, and Ortega. Nemona had her arm slung casually around Penny's shoulder, and Arven could see from here that Penny was redder than a fresh tomato.
"Hey! ____, Arven!" Nemona spotted them first, lighting up as she waved. The former leaders of Team Star parted ways with a quiet 'Hasta la vistar! ☆', and the four remaining students met in the middle. "You both look great! Oh, ____, are you ready for-"
"The speeches we have to give." ____ groaned, prompting Nemona to scuff their shoulder playfully.
"You'll be fiiiine! It isn't the end of the world!" Nemona beamed, making Penny chortle.
"I dunno, talking in front of a lot of people is kind of the worst thing EVER." Penny gave ____ a sympathetic little shrug. "Talking in front of a few people sucks almost as bad, though."
"You get it." ____ sighed, slumping against Arven. "You both look great, by the way."
"Beat me to it." Nemona joked. Arven finally took the time to see what she was wearing - a deep maroon suit, much like his, with a bright red bowtie and a simple white dress shirt. She seemed to forgo wearing the jacket, wearing it like a cape over her shoulders... It reminded him vaguely of the Galarian champion, what was his name? Penny probably knew. "I helped Penny pick out her stuff - she didn't have anything to wear!"
"I wasn't planning on coming til you invited me." Penny huffed, though she didn't look upset. Before anybody else could talk, both ____ and Nemona's phones pinged.
"Ope - it's time! Come on, let's get it over with so we can have our Academy Double Date! Even if I'd prefer it be a Double BATTLE...." Nemona's voice trailed off as she grabbed ____ by the wrist and dragged them off. Arven gave their hand a final squeeze before they followed along, a final 'good luck.'
"Alright, Pipsqueak, let's find somewhere to watch." Arven adjusted his coat again, though it really didn't need adjusting. He made his way towards the gathering crowd, but Penny stopped him.
"Somewhere I can actually see from, ideally, you Big Lunk." Penny scolded, jabbing a finger over her shoulder towards the makeshift stage. There was an area off to the side that was less populated, and wouldn't require Penny needing to crane her neck to see what was happening.
The pair weaved through the crowds, finally finding a good spot to watch. It was close enough for them to actually hear, but far enough to not get surrounded by other students.
____ and Nemona were up on stage, quietly chatting to Director Clavell. Nemona seemed eager to do her speech, but Arven guessed based on ____'s expression that they were up first. Indeed, they stepped up to the microphone, briefly checking if it was actually on.
The crowd began to quiet as ____ cleared their throat, and soon enough all eyes were on them.
"... It's been almost a year now since I moved to Paldea. Next week, actually, marks a full 365 days." ____ started. "When I first came here from Unova, I admittedly had... Low expectations. For myself, more than anything. I was just some kid from Nuvema Town, I'd never picked up a PokeBall before."
They spotted Arven in the crowd, and he gave them a quiet thumbs up.
"But- y'know, being at the Academy has really changed everything. It's not every day the director himself comes knocking on your door to give you a Pokemon." ____ glanced at Clavell, who adjusted his glasses with a smile. "And it's also not every day you happen to meet your three best friends in the entire world on the same day, within a few hours of eachother. I know a lot of people think the same thing about themselves - oh, I'm just a nobody, I can't do what they do. But I want to tell you all, as someone who WAS a nobody... Success isn't out of reach. With support from your peers, you can climb to any height you can imagine... And I, as one of this school's two champions, am going to be your leverage. We can lift eachother up to be our best, and make something that we can be proud of."
Even if their speech was short and sweet, it got their desired message across - the crowd of students clapped politely as they hopped off the stage, dodging through people with surprising mastery. Arven only realized they were coming right to him when they gestured for him to follow.
"I'll be right back," Arven said, and Penny only vaguely hummed in response. She had her chin propped on her upturned palm, watching Nemona with a dreamy look in her eyes. He excused himself quickly right as Nemona began to talk, of course mentioning her love of battling.
Arven followed ____ up the stairs and into the school, where they rounded a corner into a hall. He lost track of them for a moment, before they grabbed his wrist and yanked him into an empty classroom.
"Why are you-" Arven is silenced when their lips meet his, and they push him back until he's sitting on one of the desks. He flings an arm back to hold himself upright as they casually clamber into his lap, disregarding the fact that they might screw up their nice outfit.
____ holds onto his blazer like a lifeline, and Arven takes a moment to figure out how to keep them both from falling over before he leans into them. They were so tense, it was rather surprising.
He runs his hand down the back of their neck, tracing his fingers down their spine - they shudder when he caresses the dip of their back, making a soft noise that he could barely hear.
"Arven..." They gasp as they pull apart for a moment, before eagerly diving back in for more. He happily reciprocates, finally comfortable enough to set both hands on their hips. Arven runs his palms down their thighs as they slide their fingers underneath his blazer, too impatient to try with the buttons. How long has it been? Arven can't think straight, trailing his hands up their thighs towards-
And then his phone rings. It's Nemona. Of course it is. ____ groans, flopping against him. Obviously this means they have to go back to the actual ball.
"Chin up, it'll be alright. Your big speech is over, I guess it's time we went and had fun." Arven can't help but feel a little disappointed. He did enjoy their time alone.
"Yeah, yeah, Mr. Reasonable." ____ hopped up, fixing their outfit. "Come on, let's not leave Nemona waiting."

Been binge reading your poke pasta stuff, I don’t see much it especially reader fics so I’m very greatful. I saw your explaining new gens to Glitchy.
If you could please write that or with another character if possible! (Btw my fav piece of urs was the reader saving Blake 🙏🙏🙏🙏 luv him sm)
“Oh hey, Gold! There’s a new kind of Tyranitar that I think you’ll love. Wanna see it?”
Nodding, the limbless trainer floated over, sitting down beside you on the bed as you showed him your [Scarlet/Violet] game.
While the rest of the pokepasta trainers either rejected or were indifferent to newer generations of games, Gold was impressed by some of the new features, such as the Mega Tyranitar you showed him earlier today.
You had a feeling he’ll adore this version just as much.
“So here’s a Tyranitar, but from the future. It’s called Iron Thorns.”
He blinked in surprise upon seeing the robotic dinosaur with metallic armor on your screen. It had bluish-green liquid encased inside it, visible through transparent pieces.
His face didn’t show much of an initial reaction, but you went ahead and explained the gist of Paradox Pokémon without diving too deep into spoilers (not that you think he’d care about them, but you’re considerate).
“That’s..really cool..” He rasped after you finished, giving you a small smile. “Are there-?”
"Jeez, are they running out of ideas or what?”
You jumped, completely forgetting that Glitchy Red was also in the room with you. 
He was in the corner, looking through your trading card collection when your rambles of Paradox Pokémon got his attention--while also irritating him at the same time. It was enough to make him snap the book shut and teleport over to you, huffing.
Normally, he wouldn’t care about all this new stuff; he only got curious when you mentioned Charizard’s mega evolutions, and he thought it was a cool and simple concept: a more powerful form of a Pokémon done via a special stone, with its appearance depending on the game.
That didn’t sound too bad.
But then he accidentally put himself into a Diggserby’s hole when he wondered out loud what else changed in the series. You ranted to him about regional forms, Ultra Beasts, Gigantamax, Z-Moves, and Titans.
Suddenly nothing made sense to him, and it gave him a headache as he simply wondered...why?
Back in his day, the most complex evolutions were Eeveelutions, the only “variant” that mattered was a Shiny, and there wasn’t any past or future “relative” nonsense...only fossil Pokémon.
“Honestly I think it’s cool and brings some unique stories to the game.” You frowned slightly as Glitchy sat on the other side of you. He took off his hat to run his hands through his hair, clearly lost. “Don’t give yourself any viruses, bud. It’s not that deep.”
“I just....it’s unbelievable. They’re just grasping at any theme they could find out there..trying to keep players coming back for more.” He scoffed. “So what’s next? Pokémon changing their types now?”
The ridiculous idea made him chuckle a bit..
Until he noticed your expression was dead serious.
“Wait..don’t even tell me-”
“Actually they can. Scarlet and Violet also have this new battle mechanic called “Terastallizing”, where you can use Tera Crystals to alter your Pokémon's type.”
“..I was joking. Why would--ugh, nevermind...” Groaning, he put his hands over his face. Gold could see how distressed he looked and pouted a little bit.
The Unowns spelled out “I KNOW” for Glitchy, showing that their trainer sympathized with him. He looked at them, and then to him, sighing. “I’m stunned your head isn’t exploding again.”
"Boys, you’re being dramatic.” You chuckled, shaking your head before deciding to continue the game. “Now if you’ll excuse me..I got a Charizard raid battle to do. You’re both free to watch me play. My Tera Crystals have some cool and unique effects to them.”
His eye twitched at your emphasis on those words, and he would have retaliated with some snark had Gold not shuffled closer to you, watching the screen. 
And after some hesitance himself....he gave in and ended up doing the same, observing the battle while making sure he didn’t accidentally corrupt your gameplay.
Both of them were actually impressed by the way you battled.
If you were in their world, you’d be a great Pokémon trainer for sure.
Hopefully not cursed like them, obviously.

Glitchy Red Headcanons for Connection
Thought I'd share some (mostly) spoiler-free headcanons for my Glitchy Red fic just for fun. With what I have posted so far these should all be pretty obvious, but there's a couple more things I want to hint at for the story. Some are just random tidbits that have no reason for existing other than just because.
In my mind, Red is something between a glitch, an AI, and a supernatural entity.
The longer a player interacts with the game, the stronger Red gets. He'd been left dormant for so long that when Leann found him, he hardly had any of his old abilities and was borderline an amnesiac. All he had at that point was his bitter hatred of players and the glitches. Her keeping the game on for so long has allowed him to become himself again.
The glitches he experienced broke him in every way imaginable. Hence the reason it takes him some time to snap into his real self.
Despite all his talk, he has no idea what he is or how he exists. He can't be bothered to care.
Theoretically he could be transferred into a PC or some other more powerful device, but due to the broken nature of his code and the fact he doesn't fully understand what proper programming is, it likely wouldn't end well for whatever he's put in. He's a stubborn bastard now so he'd be fine, but the computer would be bricked.
I feel like, just for shits and giggles, Red's "data" is this impossibly convoluted mess of code that is somehow much larger than it should be. He exists within the Pokémon Red cart, along with the entire game, and this mofo is like, 8GB of data by himself. Makes no sense. Something mind-bogglingly stupid like that.
There's more below the cut, and beware potential spoilers for stuff I haven't written.
Now for some fun ideas I have that I kind of want to do stuff with but I don't know if I'll include it in Connection or not.
Red is powerful enough to physically haunt a person. Only the person claiming ownership over the cartridge can see and hear him. Likewise, Red can only interact with them and no one else. He mostly uses this fact to stare intimidatingly from the corner of a dark room, a la sleep paralysis demon, or just watch them while they struggle to ignore his presence and go about their lives.
In the past he's gone far enough with this that he's tormented players to the point of people thinking they've gone insane. And they pretty much were by that point.
Red's other preferred ghost tactic is to swat things from their hands or wake them up in the middle of the night by prodding at them. Or screaming right in their face.
Unless the player passes the game along to some other poor sap, they'll be stuck with him indefinitely.
The game cannot be destroyed. It lets off major fuck-you energy to anyone who tries. Smash it to bits with a hammer? Lol. Set it on fire? Got any marshmallows? Throw it into a lake? Well, I'd almost say good job but did I forget to mention that the only other thing Red can interact with is his game? Whoops. Hope you don't mind him letting himself back in to give you an earful for throwing him away like that. And no, water can't damage it either.
This is of no deliberate choice from Red. He'd love to let the game be destroyed so he can stop existing in pure agony. The damn thing just won't die though, and subsequently, neither will he.
He doesn't really have anything against kids. Mind you, he doesn't like kids since he gained sapience, but he can tolerate them more than adults. At least children have the excuse of being naïve and clueless when they're breaking the game. Usually. He'll give them the benefit of the doubt. Adults who come back to witness the broken horror of the original game know full-well what they're doing and he can't stand it.
He won't do much to torment kids aside from his usual in-game antics. The adult players are the ones who get thrown out of bed at 3am or have their dreams haunted.
The developers were adults too so the hatred's also pretty obvious. He'd love to get his hands on them some day. He has a paranoid side that is whole-heartedly convinced they're out there looking for his cart, ready to erase him and be rid of the stain on their record.
It's been a while since someone last turned the game on. He seems to have a bit of reputation now.
Has zero concept of the internet but could probably figure it out.
He doesn't hate the new gens so much just because they replaced him. He loathes the fact that they are all genuinely better than he'll ever be. He and his game are broken, not good enough, and now that he has self-awareness he realizes he was never meant to be anything special. He was simply a stepping-stone, a learning curve meant to kickstart an idea. He was, isn't, and never will be anything more than that. His only legacy is how glitchy his game is.
He's very aware of the irony that the very thing that made him what he is, is the whole reason why he was deemed a failure by his creators. If you're smart, you won't bring it up.
I have more, but I think I should stop. I could talk about this little project of mine for hours. Or any project for that matter. If anyone would like to hear more of my deranged ramblings they're more than welcome to ask. 😅

They are girlfriends and you can't stop them
↓ Me talking below the cut because I'm super normal about them ↓
Nightshade (she/her), Night for short, is Varin's Corviknight. Snap (she/they) is Akki's Hydreigon. Akki and Varin are together all the time anyway so it works out. Spoilers but Akki ends up trading Snap to Varin so it double works out. They're amazing double battle partners, so they destroy in team-up battles with their two trainers, but this ends up being the reason Akki trades Snap to Varin. Snap isn't unhappy but she's a bit of a misfit on Akki's team anyway. And Varin is super into double battles.
Night is confident and charming, and she has kind of a "the popular girl at school" personality. She's generally widely liked and has a broad influence over the pokémon she knows. She's considered the glue that holds her team together. I'd imagine her sounding and acting like Grace from Inf1nity Train, to an extent of course.
Snap is a bit of an outcast in her own team. She's not disliked, and it's not that they don't get along well, but she doesn't really mesh well with their dynamic. They're all very bold, outgoing pokémon for the most part, and she's more reserved and prefers a quiet environment with one-on-one conversation. This meshes great with Varin's team, which is made up of a lot of friendly, but quieter and more reserved pokémon. I'd imagine her sounding like Norma from D3ad End: Paranormal Park.
In my fanon Hydreigons' puppet hands are semi-conscious. The pokédex states that they're not conscious, but it feels weird that Zweilous evolves a second head and then it just goes away upon final evolution. (I have a whole thing about how the pokédex seems like a bunch of urban legends and how the accuracy seems to vary depending on who wrote it, but I'll spare you that rant.) This is kinda where the "they" in Snap's she/they comes from. Like Snap would be a she/they regardless but sometimes "they" is more applicable because the hands are kinda alive. They'd probably be a bit single-minded and wouldn't be able to talk, but they do have a mind of their own.
Another fanon thing: Snap has the spots Deinos have in their little manes. While keeping pre-evolution traits isn't necessarily a red flag, it can be a sign of a pokémon who was overtrained and forced to evolve early. Sometimes they just keep their markings! Pokémon are very variable in pattern and such in my fanon. But sometimes it can be a sign of an early evolution. If or not this is the case with Snap I will not say, but I will say that neither Akki nor Varin would knowingly do this.
In the games, some trainers have pokémon who are fully evolved despite their level being too low. Like Ghetsis, he has a Hydreigon at level 54. Ten whole levels under the evolution level. This was thought up as a bit of an explanation for that. Early evolution isn't always an abusive and stressful thing when done right, but it's likely to shorten the lifespan of the pokémon, kinda like power feeding a snake. So it's still generally unethical. Some trainers know how to do it right, like gym leaders, but it's typically considered too risky to do and most trainers wouldn't do it anyway.

Welcome to another long-ass post by yours truly! Today we're talking about my personal favourite Pokemon I think are most aesthetically pleasing from the ones I've got at my disposal since I saw these lists online and figured I'd do my own, with my own Pokémon
(there will likely be spoilers for the new Pokemon Snap, the Pokemon sword/shield crown DLC and that stuff.)
(photos are taken by me and are mine, thanks for reading btw <3)
-----------
No. 1
First, let's start with the OG beautiful Pokemon; Milotic. The creature is called the "Tender Pokemon," They sound beautiful just from that pokedex name alone, don't they?
Tumblr media
The Pokemon originates from Gen III and is indeed a beautiful Pokémon- Besides in mannerisms, its graceful with its movements generally and makes an appearance in the Pokemon Snap for the Nintendo Switch.
------------
No. 2
Next up, second place is Xerneas. My first ever caught legendary and is absolutely gorgeous in general, even without my bias. The Pokemon brings everlasting life when its antlers glow colors and can sometimes undo its counterpart's destruction. Sounds like a magical and beautiful Pokemon as well that's because it is.
Tumblr media
The Pokemon originates from a game of its own called "Pokemon X" for the 3DS/DS (Gen IV) (It appears in the New Pokemon Snap and is a part of the ending of the game)
-----------
No. 3
In third place is Suicune. Another gorgeous Pokemon, this Pokemon is the embodiment of the rain that took out the rain of the Brass Tower and is said to be the also embodiment of the northern wind/Borealis and the compassion of pure spring water. Quite a Pokemon, hey?
Tumblr media
Normal form
---------
Tumblr media
Paradox form was introduced in Gen IX for a limited-time event
--------
Originating from From Gen II it is also the mascot of the game, Pokemon Crystal and appears on the game's boxart. He also got a paradox form which was an event called "Walking Wake" Suicune also appears in the New Pokemon Snap after you finish the game and get the credits but if difficult to take photos of due to it being quick (It appears in the New Pokemon Snap after the credits roll and you finish the game)
----------
No. 4
Gardevoir, ah Gardevoir, one of the most simped Pokemon for its female appearance and graceful movements and cute animations- its pokedex name is "Embrace Pokémon," Not much is said about it from me as I just think it's pretty, but others think otherwise of it
Tumblr media
The Pokemon originates from the III Gen and got the fairy-typing alongside its psychic one in Gen IV. (This Pokemon appears in Pokemon Snap too alongside Pokemon Unite)
-----------
No. 5
I think it'd be illegal to not mention the best fairy type currently, Zacian. An absolute darling who is likely to be a female which people debate due to its pokedex entry. It is the counterpart/sibling to Zamazenta who together make the hero duo who worked alongside the king to end the darkest day.
Tumblr media
This Pokemon is a steel-fairy type without its weapon it's just a lone fairy type and also out of battle. This cutie is the mascot of Pokemon Sword which is Gen VIII. (Zacian doesn't appear in Pokemon Snap but is in Pokemon Unite)
-----------
No. 6
Next up is Articuno, both Galarian and normal as both are gorgeous in their own rights and ways and I don't have much to say besides they're pretty :D
Tumblr media
Galarian form
-------
Tumblr media
Kanto/original form
------
The Pokemon originates from Gen I and in Gen VIII it gets an upgrade to a psychic-flying type instead of its original Ice-flying typing (Articuno appears in Pokemon Unite)
------------
No. 7
Next up is Lunala! I actually own a statue/figurine of both of the Alola legendaries from a few years back, which I still have, but I'm getting sidetracked majorly- The Pokemon is known as the "Moone Pokemon" and is the emissary of the moon, its wings are gorgeous which is an understatement in and out of itself.
Tumblr media
This bat Pokemon is the female counterpart to Solgaleo who is its supposed male counterpart, she was introduced unannounced and was introduced with context a month or so later and is the mascot of "Pokemon Moon" for the 3DS and is from Gen VII- she comes from Nebby/Cosmog. (She also has a Full moon phase where an eye appears on her forehead- and no, she doesn't appear in any games like Snap or Unite :p)
--------
No. 8
Everyone probably saw this coming, didn't they?? It's Hatterene. A beautiful pastel-colored fairy type who will beat your ass if you live 30 miles from a forest where a Hatterene lives because you got angry you stubbed your toe and cursed Arceus' name. Or maybe because she hates the fact people are making her the new Gardevoir of simping, who knows? Cause I sure as fuck don't or want to.
Tumblr media
She was introduced in Gen VIII and is the female counterpart of Grimmsnarl who share no real evolutionary line to but is still related. (She doesn't appear in Pokemons Snap or Unite)
--------
No. 9
Ninetales is a gorgeous fox who got mixed up with a wolf at some point by people? But nonetheless, some would want to fuck and others would like to take a nap with the creature because it looks very fluffy and warm to the touch (probably just me) but regardless, she's on this list
Tumblr media
Alolan form
------
Tumblr media
Kanto/normal form
-------
She was introduced in Gen I and has been a favourite amongst people since the beginning. She has another form from Gen VII which is gorgeous and you can only catch it in Pokemon Sun. It has a blue/white coat and is very fluffy and her hidden ability is "Snow Warning"
-------
No. 10
I'm probably biased on this but the second to last spot as this is already long enough is Miraidon. I just think the Pokemon is gorgeous whether I stand alone on it or not doesn't matter to me I have a huge thing for robots as I've always been intrigued by them and no offence to Koraidon or people who love it since I rarely see any fans of the Electric type counterpart but it looks cooler, plus the colour scheme doesn't look so... Odd? Hard to pinpoint the word for that.
Tumblr media
The electric-dragon duel-type legendary was introduced in the most recent game, Pokemon Violet. Which was published in November of 2022 as the future version/counterpart of Koraidon and their generation is Gen IX
--------
And finally No. 11
Calyrex! The Kind of the Galar region, and the region got the king wrong. He isn't an actual human but rather a Pokemon! And honestly, I figured it was likely a Pokemon anyway. But regardless- he helped stop The Darkest Day alongside Zamazenta and Zacian. He was introduced in the Crown DLC and was, and is loved, by the residents of Freezington and can speak to the player via another human (Peony) or via telepathy which we see when we catch him.
Tumblr media
He was introduced in Gen VIII with the Crown DLC and is a Psychic-grass type, but can be a Psychic-ice or Psychic-ghost type when with his steed. You can pick between two steeds, I went with the ghost-typed one called Spectrier but there is an Ice-type one. It just depends entirely on where you plant the seeds for its carrots.
--------
And that's my list of Pokemon I think are aesthetically nice. I hope I didn't offend people, especially with the Miraidon one- I enjoyed making this list and I hope people enjoy looking through my favourite aesthetically pleasing Pokemon with me and I will make a second list as this is long enough

Brothers in Arms but like Literally
Spoilers for the first three volumes of Pokémon Adventures! / Some from 4-6!
Summary: Blaine has possibly never been more terrified in his life. A blatant untrue statement. He’s a scientist, he’s worked with Team Rocket, oh, he’s also biologically linked towards the monstrosity sitting on the counter in the Master Ball. Its an intelligent creature- clearly, as it’s psychic powers are unrivaled, cloned from Mew, cloned from him. It knows what he’s done, it is his bloodline, as he is its.
Blaine has possibly never been more terrified in his life. A blatant untrue statement. He’s a scientist, he’s worked with Team Rocket, oh, he’s also biologically linked towards the monstrosity sitting on the counter in the Master Ball. Its an intelligent creature- clearly, as it’s psychic powers are unrivaled, cloned from Mew, cloned from him. It knows what he’s done, it is his bloodline, as he is its.
He can change, he can repent his sins, but Blaine can’t expect forgiveness from anything or anyone. Red says they can change, start over, he’s a smart, kind-hearted boy, but Blaine knows of grudges and resentment. Team Rocket needed him alive but as a traitor he suspects they’d also like his head on a pike afterwards. Does the cloned Pokémon share that, he doesn’t know. Killing him kills it too, but maybe it’s not afraid of that consequence. He is terrified of that consequence. (As most men are when met in the face of death.)
It glared at him from inside the Pokéball. It seemed ironic how capsule like the device was, despite it could hold it. Wires and broken glass fill Blaine’s mind, sedatives in the liquid doing nothing to quell its wrath of unnaturally being born. He knew of many balls being shattered, splintered, so unrecognizable the Pokémon inside could not come out. A Pokémon’s rage is astounding because of their powers and strength, a human cannot compare. Is he even human anymore is a hypothesis for later, right now it’s ‘Am I going to stay alive for even ten seconds?’
He is not… Completely defenseless. If it decides to throw him against the wall instead of the spoon attack, he has Rapidash at his side. Though that is more for retrieving the Master Ball, he doesn’t dare throw it in such an enclosed space. Though a master of Fire types, the lab feels suffocating, and it’s not because of smoke.
“Right, here we go… I’m going to release you- From the ball, I mean. It’s all fine.” He coaxes the creature, as if it’s a mere Caterpie infestation. Its glare never stopped, and Blaine can feel sweat down his neck. Its a matter of trust. Trust to not hurt and be hurt in return. Either way, it can be easily snapped like a twig, he has to be gentle rather than rip off the bandage.
His hands lay rest on the device, he waits a moment for Mewtwo to react, it moves slightly, flinches, when his touch comes near, despite the pissed off ‘I’d like to kill you’ look, its still a Pokémon, still has stimuli, a heart. His arm writhes slightly, but he grins and bears it.
“I won’t hurt you, not anymore.” Blaine says as the capsule becomes undone, stepping back so there’s enough room for release. Moment of truth. His breath is held. Mewtwo exits, looking around its surroundings. Perhaps that’s a good sign- it should already know that from its energy, so glancing around is perhaps instinct rather than knowledge of the situation. Its nose twitches, and it settles, staring at Blaine. Nervously, he extends his hand.
“It was a mere suggestion by that boy, but it’s a good one. Shall we start over… friend?” Blaine hesitates on what to call the creature. It looks at him for longer, like an eternity, but at least it’s not attacking him or the lab. (Though the latter is the least of his worries. A lab can be replaced, not exactly a human being.)
A four-fingered hand nestles in his palm, and Blaine laughs. He laughs hard, tears prickling at his eyes, concealed by his sunglasses. Mewtwo recoils at this.
“Not at you, not at you…” Blaine reassures it, “It’s nothing, I assure you. I’m just glad for the chance… My brother.”

Pillow
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
Summary
"Ganyu seems far more tired than usual today, seeing as she might've skipped several days worth of sleep, you decide to help complete the rest of her work. You didn't expect to find a good friend from Sumeru, though."
Warnings
Fluffy, it's like cotton candy~
Tiny bit of spoilers for the Fabulous Fungus Frenzy event (Only mentions traveller)
Reader is not traveller
Reader wields a Hydro vision
Reader wields a sword
Physical fighting
Blood
Tiny bit of jealousy
Cursing
Sleeping on thighs
Cuddling
Physical touching that seems lewd
Reader's vision
Elemental Ult/Q: Plunging your sword into the ground, you summon scalding geysers around you, dealing large Hydro AOE damage and throwing your opponents.
Extra: You can heal with Hydro Vision, similarly to Barbara and Kokomi. Why? Because it's convenient.
A/N: I can see why some of the newer characters have slightly boring kits, I had to base these skills off of Pokémon Unite lol
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
Your romance begins here
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
"And that's the last one." You huffed, patting out the small fire on your clothing before sheathing your slightly burnt sword. You stepped away from the large patch of grass that were in flames from your not-so difficult battle, Pyro creatures shouldn't be picking with it's opposite element.
Making sure there were no more Pyro Whopperflowers nearby, you turned on your heels and began walking towards Wangshu Inn, a victorious smile plastered in your face as you had officially completed your commision given by Verr Goldet.
It was about 11AM now, so you have plenty of free time once you've received your rewards from the Inn's owner. As you strolled through the forest in your own leisurely place, your mind wanders off to thinking about you should what to do today.
Though, at the moment, there's nothing much you could do today. You shrugged, maybe you'll think of an idea after a lunch at the Inn.
You gazed at the fluffy clouds above you, absentmindedly shaping them into various things out of boredom. Animals, food, people, Ruin Hunters...
"...Eh?"
A loud explosion roared from the distance, causing the ground beneath you to vibrate for a second. A confused yelp left your lips as you snapped your head at the direction of said explosion, seeing a flock of birds hurriedly escaping the premises.
Cursing under your breath, you sprinted towards the same direction. No doubt about it, that unmistakable sound of that explosion sounded exactly like all of the Ruin Hunters you've fought before.
'Is someone in danger?' That thought alone caused you to run faster.
Your heart drummed against your chest so harshly, you're afraid that it would burst out. Each step causing your legs to burn in searing agony, but you ignored the pain, panting heavily with your sword in hand and ready for battle. If someone's in trouble, you can't turn a blind eye on them.
The familiar sounds of the Ruin Hunter grew clearer and louder the more closer you got, what you didn't expect was a voice that sounded way too familiar.
"Ganyu!?"
"Ah! [Name]!?"
And this was your mistake.
Distracted by your sudden appearance, the mechanical giant siwftly plunges it's sharpened arm into the half-Adepti's back, elicting an agonising scream from her throat as blood gushed out from the wound.
"GANYU!!" Despite being tired from your run, you pushed through the exhaustion, lunging foward in time to catch her before she could fall. Your arms now warm with her blood, dripping into the ground below you. "F-Fuck— Hang on!"
You placed her down gently, running straight for the Ruin Hunter who was wiping her blood off of it's arms without a care in the world, the sight only fueling the raging fire within you.
You swiftly dodge a strike, it's back core now exposed as you leaped into the air and plunge your sword into it's weakest spot with all your might. Thanks to the fight with the blue haired Adepti earlier, that single critical strike was all it took before it began malfuctioning.
Before it could hit the ground, you grabbed your sword and pulled it out of the core, jumping it's body as soon as it tumbled into the ground. Your landing, was much less graceful than the mechincal giant, landing right on your stomach and face.
"Ack!" You hissed, getting a mouth full of dirt and grass that you quickly spit out in disgust. Rushing up from the ground, you ran over to Ganyu and knelt next to her to examine the bloody wound on her back. "Stay still, this'll be cold."
With that warning, you felt her shoulder stiffen as you graze your fingers across her wound, your blood stained fingertips oozing out cold water that engulfed her open wound. You heard Ganyu let out a small whimper, her hand reaching out to grab yours, you continue to concentrate on healing her, too focused to notice her hand on yours.
You're no expert at healing, but you had sucessfully closed the open wound, albeit leaving a faint mark and a small patch of her back's clothing slightly soaked with water. "...There we go, you should be fine if you avoid doing anything rash."
"Th-Thank you, [Name]." Ganyu sighed in relief, her tensed shoulders dropping as your hand leaves her back.
"No problem. It's a surprise to see you out here, though. Why were you fighting a Ruin Hunter?" You asked as you sat down on the grass next to her.
"Recently, the number of Ruin Hunters spotted have been increasing rapidly. The Liyue Qixing have all taken drastic measures to investigate this issue. Keqing and Ningguang are going to search for the source of the Ruin Hunter's growing populations while I was tasked the exterminate them." Ganyu explained, her soft light blue hair flowing majestically in the air like a calm river.
You furrowed your brows in worry, glancing over at the deactivated Ruin Hunter on the floor. "...All by yourself?" You asked while looking back at her, wondering how many Ruin Hunters she had fought.
The Adepti sighed, bringing her knees up to her chest and resting her chin in between her kneecaps. "It's my duty, after all... But, you don't have to give me that look. I've handled a fair number of them without much of a problem. So, you don't have to worry about me."
Your cheeks suddenly grew warm, her smile soft with a hint of amusement at your flushed face. You coughed into your fist awkwardly, averting your gaze away from her. "I- Uh... sorry for disrupting your fight before. It was my fault for getting you hurt."
Ganyu placed a hand on your shoulder, giving it a light squeeze as a way of reassurance. "It wasn't your fault. I shouldn't have gotten so easily distracted, but seeing you... I worry for your safety."
"I'm gonna have to repeat your own words here; You don't need to worry about me, too. I've got my own sword and vision here to save me from a tight spot." You chuckled, petting her head and feeling her soft hair underneath your palm
It was her turn to grow flustered at your affectionate gesture, fishing away her hand to hide the bottom part of her face away from you, hoping you hadn't catch the red tint gracing her cheeks. Suffice to say; you still did regardless, finding her shying away endearing.
"Still... I can't help but feel guilty for getting you distracted anyway. Can I make it up to you by helping with getting rid of the Ruin Hunters?" Ypu offered, getting up from the ground and extending your hand towards her.
With the sun shining behind you, it was like Ganyu had witnessed an angel being covered in a veil of golden light blessing her. Her heterochromatic eyes twinkled in awe, slowly raising her gloved hands to take yours.
Pulling her up without much struggle, you cracked your knuckles with an excited grin on your features. "Well, where should we start, Ganyu?"
"Ah... I haven't checked Luhua Pool yet, perhaps we can see if there are any Ruin Hunters there or not." You nodded at Ganyu's suggestion, ready to spend your free time helping out the half-Adepti.
<Timeskip>
As promise, you tagged along with the pale blue haired Adepti and helped clear the areas infested with Ruin Hunters. With your Hydro Vision and Ganyu's Cryo skills, the both of you made quick work of the mechanical giants by repeatedly freezing them, lessening the difficulty of the job.
Eventually, the two of you had cleared several areas in Liyue.
You wiped the sweat off your forehead, stretching your limbs that caused a satisfying pop in your stiff joints. "Ah... I didn't think there'd be so much..." You chuckled, looking over at Ganyu approaching you with a worried yet slightly exhausted look on her face.
Just a single glance at her and no one would bat an eye at anything wrong with her appearance, lest they'd like to admire her natural beauty. Though, barely visible— you could easily tell there were bags under her eyes.
"Are you alright? We've been fighting non-stop for the past few hours now. Would you like to take a break? You look quite tired." The Adepti stated, you ran your fingers through your hair and chuckled.
"Nah, i'm alright... You, however, are in desperate need of a sleep." You ruffled her hair, earning an adorable aqueak from the girl. "You're doing pretty well hiding those bags under your eyes. But, you can't escape anything from me."
Ganyu rose her hand, brushing her fingers against her eyes. "Ah... you actually noticed." Embarrassment, the girl casted her eyes down to the ground, slightly ashamed that you caught her in this state of vulnerability.
"Hey, c'mon, don't look so glum. We all need a little rest sometimes, especially you. You're not a full on Adepti like Xiah after all!"
"Xiao—"
"Xian!" You joked, sucessfully earning an amused laugh for her at the cost if disrespecting the Yaksha, you plan to sleep with one eye open tonight. "How about you take a break. I'll scout around the area, just in case."
You took her hand, guiding her over to a large tree and helping her sit down. The golden brown leaves casted a shade for the Adepti, preventing the sun from blinding her, luckily hiding the faint red tint on her cheeks at your touch. "A-Are you sure? I don't mi—"
Just as she tried to get up, you gently pushed her back down. "I'm all good, don't worry. I'll be back, safe and sound, I promise!" You flashes her a grin before taking off into the woods, letting out a chuckle when you heard Ganyu telling you to be careful.
You took a quick stroll around, as promised, not straying too far away from the Adepti. Other than the natural wildlife roaming around, there was no sign of danger much to your relief.
Until you heard that same explosion again.
"Crap!" You hissed, running towards the direction of where the sound came from. Oddly enough, you were having a feeling of déjà vu; running through the forest towards the sound of an explosion as fast as you can...
"My guiding stars!"
And yet, another familiar voice.
"Holy— Layla!?" You exclaimed, but this time, the young blue haired girl was already somewhat half-asleep, her Cryo shield up and keeping her safe from the Ruin Hunter's attacks.
Hovering above the ground, Layla's eyes remained sealed shut as the Ruin Hunter floats over to her, it's spear shaped arms prepared to strike.
Without wasting time, you leaped foward in front of the girl, using your blade to barely block the blow in time. The sound of metal clashing into one another sucessfully woke up the girl behind you, letting out a confused gasp as she watches you struggle to shield her.
You gripped the hilt of your sword tightly, the blade's edge digging into the skin of your palm and drawing out blood. Grunting, you dug your foot deeper into the ground and pushed foward as hard as you could, deflecting the attack.
"Now, you've done it!" Without a moments notice, you plunged your sword into the ground, summoning several scalding hot geysers around the Ruin Hunter.
"[Name]!?" Layla exclaimed in her tired yet shocked voice, watching in awe as you had defeated the giant with just your Elemental Burst.
You huffed in exhaustion, pulling out your sword and wiping the damp soil off the blade. You should reall get it fixed and polished soon, you can barely see your reflection in it now. "Hah... Layla, great to see you here! How have you been?"
"H-Huh? Y-You shouldn't just direct the subject away! [Name], are you hurt?" Layla asked worriedly, her shield now depleted and her hands rushing to roam over your body, checking for any injuries. You froze om the spot, muscles stiff at her touches that held no malicious intent whatsoever.
Seeing as she continued to search for any wounds without stopping, you awkwardly coughed into your hand. "Ah-Ahem... Layl—"
"Hands off [Name]!"
Instinctively, the Sumeru student reeled her hands away from you, raising both of them up into the air as if she was surrendering. You glanced behind her, eyes widening when you saw the Adepti aiming a charged Cyro arrow at your friend.
"AH-HAHAHA-G-G-GANYU NO! PUT THE ARROW DOWN!!" You shouted, frantically waving your hands as you shielded Layla once more with your body.
"[Name], who is this?" The Adepti asked, her guard up and her tone strict, you rarely got to see her like this. She was usually so calm and sweet, unless there were others bad mouthing her friends when she's around.
"G-Ganyu, Layla. Layla, Ganyu." You introduced, your voice shaky at almost witnessing your friend murder your other friend who was just as terrified as you were.
Hearing the name, the blue haired female's eyes widened, lowering her bow completely. "You're Layla? My apologies! I didn't realize... I should have asked for your name first instead of assuming you were a threat..."
Ganyu bowed her head in shame, her eyes glued to the ground in fear of your disapproving glare and Layla's reprimanding. But instead, you only chuckled and placed a hand on her shoulder, nudging her a little to make her look up into your forgiving eyes.
"Not a problem, Ganyu. You need to protect Liyue, after all, it's perfectly fine that you get a little cautious of newcomers." You reassured, followed by Layla's calm hum of acknowledgement. "Which reminds me... Layla, what are you doing here? Last I remembered, we parted ways after that Fungi battling event."
You had met the elusive traveller and their fairy-like companion, who saved multiple regions and fought off many dangerous threats. It was convenient that they were heading to Sumeru for an event that you never heard off and offered for you to join, to which you happily accepted.
Layla's cheeks grew red, memories of meeting you, the traveller, battling one another and hanging out with you flashing in her head. "Well... when you talked about Liyue back at the event... I couldn't help but get curious about your home region."
Though, secretly, she just wished to see you again.
"Ah, I see. Well, welcome to Liyue, Layla!" You cheered, petting her head affectionately, much to Ganyu's envy.
"Th-Thank you, [Name]..." Layla giggled shyly, brushing a strand of her dark blur locks away from her exhausted face. "It was a long journey... but it was worth it just to see you again."
Your cheeks flare up at her accidental confession, but you noticed something more concerning. "Jeez, Layla, did you sleep at all? You look tired!" You glanced back and forth at the two blue haired girls, noticing how similar they are in terms of characteristics. A pair of sleepy, hardworking and adorable Cryo girls.
A huff left your lips, crossing your arms and shaking your head like a stern parent. "You both really need some rest. I can see you didn't even get a wink of sleep while I was away, Ganyu. I'm positive there's no more Ruin Hunters in the area, we should head back to Liyue Harbor and see if Keqing and Ningguang are back or not. You two are gonna get some sleep too!"
The two blue haires girls looked at eachother, their tired eyes seemingly communicating with one another with telepathy before the corner of their lips curved upwards into a satisfied grin. "If that's what you suggest..."
"But we can't just simply sleep on the ground."
"What do yo— Ahhh!" You were dragged towards a nearby tree and down to the ground by the Adepti's impressive strength, landing on your rear with an 'Oomph!'. "G-Ganyu, a little warning would beeeee—!!"
You hitched your breath, now feeling the Adepti clinging onto your arm and her head resting on your shoulder, her breath fanning against the warm flesh of your neck. Your words caught in your throat, cheeks flaring up bright red at her strong grasp in your arms that you tried to slip out of, a futile attempt it was.
Looking over at Layla for help, you began blushing harder than ever as soon as she sat down beside you and nestled her head between your thighs. "Ah... Perfect..." Layla sighed in content, her arms resting on her chest as she snuggled into the plush of your thighs.
"Absolutely..." Ganyu agreed in a quiet tone, satisfied smiles gracing upon their tired but relaxed features. You froze in between the girls, stiff as a rock as their breathing slowly turned into light snores, you are in awe at how fast they could fall asleep.
Seeing as the two are now unconscious, you faced Layla first before looking over at Ganyu. "My arm..." You mumbled lowly, slowly slipping it out so that you could help adjust her sleeping position a little. This only cause Ganyu to groan quietly in her sleep, pressing herself into you more and cuddling your arm closer to her chest.
You immediately stopped your movement, seeing her face morph from discomfort back to blissful peacefulness.
You scanned the area, nothing but a plain grassy field with trees and their leaves flowing in the breeze. The tree provided the three of you a large area of shade, thankfully shielding you from possibly getting sunburnt.
As the cooling breeze brushed against your face, you sighed in defeat, now laying your head back on the tree's wooden bark with a small smile on your face. 'A little rest wouldn't hurt... they need it.'
Moments before you start to fall asleep, you felt something warm and soft oressed against either side of your cheeks, two voices fainy whispering something inaudible to you before you had drifted off to slumber.

I’ve seen many people that talk about how Ingo and Emmet reuniting will be an emotional moment of brothers reuniting after several months apart, but I’d like to imagine that Ingo just disappeared for thirty seconds, returns just as suddenly, and aged 5 years with his Hisui clothes.
“How long as it been here? I’ve been gone for five years…”
“Where did you go?!”
“I don’t know, but I’m their king now…”

I can imagine Tom trying to explain to others how he suddenly got three superpowered anthro children.
Tom: *points to Sonic* “I got that one after a series of events that brought us closer together and we gradually developed a parental relationship.
*points to Knuckles* “We kept him after another series of events where he was deceived into thinking that Sonic was a bad guy through trauma and a sense of duty. Now he lives with us so he isn’t alone.”
*points to Tails* “Yeah, we haven’t exactly been told how he got here, but he’s too sweet to kick out.”

Ok I've never been one to make a Pokémon trainer oc BUT because of how damn good the lore is for scarlet and violet and the chars surrounding the player, ive been having big thoughts about how my player might react to some important story stuff, which I will put in a read more for spoiler reasons.
For context: my player (edit: his name is lewis) came from unova. His dad was never fucking around but of course his mom is, she does her best. His dad became an elite four member while he was like 7ish, and never came home again. Dad lived in the city and deserted his family in the countryside. This made lewis very angry and bitter to the point he blamed pokemon and battles. His mom steered him differently before he got too bad, but this caused him to declare that he wanted to be better than his father in every way. He wanted to beat that ass. His mom made the dad put in a good word at the academy for lewis to go to school, but he doesn't learn this until much later.
He gets into the paldean academy at 14 yrs old, and the events of scarvi play out.
now spoilers ahead for mid and postgame content
while lewis was helping arven restore mabosstiffs health, arven once again called miraidon/koraidon a brute. this set lewis off because of how his mother repeatedly told him that it wasnt pokemon that took his own father away. he went off on his upperclassman saying that its not any pokemons fault for either of their parents desertion. he says shitting on a pokemon, or any living thing that did not ask to be here, is extremely wrong and he demands that arven apologize immediately.
"i dont know where miraidon/koraidon came from, but its not from here. how would you feel if you were alone in a weird place all by yourself?" lewis ends his tirade with this proposal to arven and leaves the titan's lair.
later, he gets to area zero with penny, arven, and nemona. they all talk about their families. lewis doesnt really say much about his at first, because hes kinda in a similar position to arven with one parent but hes still got the other, so he doesnt wanna make arven upset. but nemona keeps pressing him until he snaps. he yells at the group, saying that his dad was a piece of shit and chose being a member of the elite four over him and his mom, and that hes training at the academy to shame him in front of the entire unova region.
to have pushed her friend and rival to spill everything, seeing the boy so angry when he spoke of battling his father just to prove a point, made nemona feel a bit dejected. she wondered if everything about their friendship was a facade so he could climb to the top. penny was speechless, and so was arven. lewis gives arven a knowing look, and then proceeds further into area zero.
this boy that had done so much for the three of them, was still struggling to find his own meaning outside of his father. even miles away from his home, he couldnt seem to step outside of the huge shadow his father has left on his entire life. they felt powerless to help him. they wonder why he had even agreed to help them at all. he could have kept to himself if all he wanted was to get stronger on his own. he was clearly capable of that.
the truth is the boy's heart had been betraying his words ever since he stepped foot into paldea.

warning: the following contains spoilers for pokémon scarlet/violet
wheeeew! okay, so after a good rest, i’m able to talk about what went on with the titan from yesterday!
Tumblr media
this big guy is the lurking steel titan, orthworm! i’m sure plenty of you have seen a normal sized orthworm, but this was my first encounter with this pokémon! as absolutely astounding as it was in size, it was sort of cute! orthworm was not the fighting sort - when he saw aether and i, he hurried to burrow under the ground. with our legs still aching, we opted to chase him down on miraidon! orthworm would peek his head out occasionally, and we essentially were playing a large scale version of whack-a-diglet. this would’ve been fun if we weren’t so tired, i think. after we ended up cornering the behemoth, we sent out reaper and blank, who defeated it easily! after that, it tunneled through solid stone… and the chase began again.
Tumblr media
after we chased it down again, it opened a passage - another cave, just like the one the titan klawf had. and orthworm reaches inside and pulls out one of the herba mystica! a fight would be rough on us and our pokémon, especially from our lack of rest, but luckily, arven appears to help out! he’s brought a toedscool with him this time, who i still don’t know the name of.
Tumblr media
reaper was noticeably worn out, so i gave him a rest and switched him out with gwaine instead! between our three pokémon, this giant worm was no match for us, and actually was defeated pretty easily, despite the herba mystica that it ate! when it was tired of fighting, it quickly burrowed underground to retreat. we took that as our chance, with arven’s direction, to take the herb before it came back. so, into the cave we went.
Tumblr media
according to arven, this is the salty herba mystica! it has amazing properties that help promote healing, just like the sweet variety, though i can’t remember exactly what he’d listed off, as i was very, very tired. he made some more of those awesome sandwiches for us! once again, miraidon intended to beg for our sandwiches. arven actually had made an extra one just for miraidon this time, even though he swears it wasn’t for the dragon at all! i don’t think aether or i believe him, haha.
Tumblr media
great sandwiches again! he’s definitely some sort of sandwich chef, right? a normal person couldn’t do the magic he does! he also gave us this neat badge, which i think is pretty cool considering he makes the badges himself! miraidon also loves his sandwiches, which is both a blessing and a curse. actually, despite getting its own sandwich… miraidon actually was going to take a bite from arven’s, and he snapped at it.
Tumblr media
his shouting was very startling! i remember almost jumping up from my seat. even miraidon scurried away, which must’ve made him feel bad, because he apologized right after. apparently, he’s been hiding something from us… and he’s decided to come clean. arven introduced us to the reason he’s hunting the herba mystica: his partner pokémon, mabosstif.
Tumblr media
the poor thing is terribly sick. no potion or pokémon center can heal him, and arven’s only option has fallen to a myth he read about in his father’s books. apparently, if a pokémon eats from all five of the herba mystica, any ailment they have will be healed. i feel like i understand him a lot more now. he said the only thing he really cares about is his mabosstif, which brings up a few questions, like how he feels about professor turo or his other pokémon, or even any of his friends… but that aside, i think i really, genuinely understand that sentiment. my partner pokémon… my boyfriend… i would do anything for them.
Tumblr media
the magic of the herba mystica works, too. according to arven, mabosstiff hasn’t been able to open its eyes or move for the longest time, and his paws have been cold in his paralysis. with the sandwich that arven gave him, he actually began to warm up a bit, and his eyes opened! arven is a pretty expressionate guy, and though we aren’t very close, he seems unreserved and genuine in how he feels. so, when he started jumping in celebration, followed by genuine sobbing in his joy… i knew that was real, and that was really who he is.
Tumblr media
with the promise to continue on our search for the remaining herba mystica, we parted ways with arven for the time being. miraidon grew stronger from the sandwich it ate, now able to jump much higher than before. and we received a call from professor turo confirming as much, once again showing how much he cares for miraidon and trusts we can care for it.
and… that’s a wrap! time to go and rest up for a couple of days! not really, but i really feel like we should, haha!
