Skirt Sophie. She is not a skirt kind of girl so it was interesting

Verdict: she likes them short because she hates when they flap around her knees, but she needs dark tights or leggins or shorts or something underneath to feel comfortable and unrestricted

Sophie's mons love her, really. Just... a little less around meal time.

Because her cooking is only slightly more edible than that of Yor Forger

Bbs on an adventure! :3

The gist of the pokemon au (after playing a single game) under the cut

This au turns out a lot more Tony-centric, actually XD it's his character journey more than Sophie's

The two of them meet in a Minor League fighting type gym. Sophie's there as a regular challenger getting ready for the proper Gym Challenge, she had just embarked on her journey. Tony is a trainer in the gym, aka one of the guys Sophie has to take down before challenging the gym leader. She can't help but notice him immediately: every single gym trainer she's ever met boasts a chipper overexcited attitude, but Tony gives off a strong "I hate every second of me being here" aura. He clearly goes through the motions in challenging her, and seems almost afraid of his own pokémon. Fighting type does not suit him, especially with the fact that the gym itself and the gym leader especially play it off extremely macho and toxically masculine, and Tony sticks out like a sore thumb. Sophie actually feels bad for him. Her and Mr. Mime put on a little funny pantomime for Tony, to which he cracks a smile, and Sophie thinks that it's nice.

Sophie quickly deals with him, though, as well as the rest of her competition (given that her ace is a fairy type) and fully intends to move on with her day. But she can't get this encounter out of her head, so after the challenge Sophie asks some other trainers about Tony, and they tell her where he usually has his lunch.

She meets him there and they have a long conversation about how Tony's stuck in the gym because it's a family business, the gym leader is his dad, and his own """ace""" Machamp is his grandfather's. He also slips and accidentally mentions that he secretly has some other mons, not fighting types, that he likes to spend his time with when nobody's looking, and Sophie immediately challenges him to a battle with them. He's hesitant at first, but then agrees, and the match between them is the tightest most exiting one he's ever had. Turns out that it's completely different to battle alongside pokemon he formed a genuine connection with.

Sophie suggests she'd steal Tony away from what is clearly stifling him. There are other people who'd happily take the place he hates being stuck in, and he clearly needs an adventure to shake him out of his depressive state. She just started the journey herself: they can take on the Gym Challenge together and see where it takes them. Tony doesn't know what to do: his legacy and sense of duty weigh on him heavily but he just can't with it all anymore. Dreading every new day became so much it is too hard to handle. And here comes this absolutely random person who suddenly wants to land him a hand. He is confused and doesn't know what to think or how to feel. Sophie wants to give him space to think things through and tells him she'll be waiting for him in the same place tomorrow, and if he doesn't show up by a certain hour, she'll know he decided not to go, and will go her own way as if they've never met. He agrees, and they part ways.

Queue in that scene from The Hobbit where Bilbo runs uphill joyfully yelling "I'm going on an adventure!"

And for Sophie, she decided to manic pixie dream girl Tony out of his situation because she had been in a very similar situation herself. Her parents (in this au both Sophie and Tony have completely different parents and family situations BTW, nothing like OG Attitudes) were really pushy about her interest in Pokemon and Pokemon battles and wanted her to have "a real job" someday, so they made her study and study everything hard and boring, and their position was always this disingenuous kind of "do anything you want once you graduate but until you do you owe this to yourself (read: us)". So Sophie took them up on their words, graduated, took her savings and immediately went away to take part in the Gym Challenge. When she met Tony she saw a lot of her own struggles in him and wanted to help him because nobody did the same for her. She knows how scary it is to go through such a change all alone.

The rest of this au is simply the two of them doing the gym challenge together, camping in the wilderness, having little adventures, catching and playing with pokemon and bonding (falling in love too, ofc😈)

How do you come up with so many beautiful outfits for Sophie, Tony and your other characters? You give them all such fabulous outfits and it wows me every time you make a new one.

Thank you, "fabulous" is such a strong compliment ^^ it's very nice of you Gem, and very sweet.

As for your question (that may be rhetorical but I'm still going to rant) Idk, references I guess? In all honesty I don't often design outfits from scratch (the two examples that came solely from my mind palace and are most notable to me personally are the Poke-Trainer Uni-Set and the Glamrock Sophie dress, i think these turned out really nice). There are times when I browse online markets and stumble across something that makes the brain go sparky-sparky and I have to put a character in it (that last colored Sophie wears an extreme crop top that I found on AliExpress, i just changed the colors). AliExpress is great when you're looking for outfit refs btw, it has some cool out of the box fun stuff. Sometimes one outfit takes me like 3-7 references at once to come up with as i Frankenstein elements i like together like a mad scientist. Sometimes there's just one thing that catches my eye and absolutely rams me with inspiration. The PokeSoph jacket i love so much is based on the colors of the Pokémon Bruxish, because it looks absolutely bonkers and I hated the yellow on that Pokémon, it was extremely vomitlike and garish, and I had to rescue this lovely color palette with a proper warm yellow that wouldn't make my eyes bleed.

Generally, I just like putting people in outfits that accentuate their character, I guess? It's a fun thing to do for me, i enjoy it a lot. And references, references are friends.

#renswers #gemprincess10 #thank you for sending such a lovely ask #it means a lot when I get something like this #I'm happy you like my fits #but also don't forget how often i simply do outfit memes #these do not count #however nicely they work XD
