A thread for the creation and discussion of fan fiction and other fanworks - anything that involves a story and/or reading. What've you been reading? What've you been writing? What would you like to see more of?>Thread question:What might happen if two random characters or one and your fic's mc interact?https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Special:RandomInCategory/Animation_characters>Previous thread:>>59045617
>>59063518What the fuck is this thing?Okay, he is a ninja with an Eccelgor. Tobio has a policy to not mess with ninja, and Wol and co would probably be pretty curious about him. Especially Jane who would want him to teach her ninjitsu.
>>59063518So, Rhys and a... manager from the Horizons anime? So he's 16 right years before GSC, and I don't know much about horizons but I'll assume it takes place at the same time of S&V, i.e some 11+ years after RGBY, meaning he'd be about 30~So I looked at the pages for Exceed and the Explorers, and considering where Rhys would be at that point in his life I think they'd approach him through the manager since they start the Strong Sphere(?) launch in Johto.I imagine he'd be pretty suspicious due of the Strong Sphere's due to the region's history of dealing with similar black market products like Dark Balls, and he eventually would become an enemy of Exceed and the Explorers. For the lady herself, I think they'd get along fine, he would probably be polite and find Coral and the other one funny.Obligatory shilling since I finished posting the first three chapters: https://archiveofourown.org/works/81146136
>>59063518https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Courtney>CourtneyKuzey would probably be traumatized having to go through fighting her, now that I'm thinking about it. She's superficially similar to Herri in her behavior, but adapts crazed obsessive yandere tendencies if she becomes intrigued in you, like Seringue. If the wires between his feelings on those two girls got crossed in his head, it might do irreparable damage to his preferences...
>>59063518what is your opinion in trainers being spokespersons and sellouts for easy money?
>>59063734I'm surprised the Nihiliego toxin and Seringue didn't already do that.
>>59063734Goddammit she even got lilac hair wtf!
>>59063780Good question. But I'm too tired to explore the idea too much right now. I remember sponsors being a thing in a cyberpunk pokemon setting I read aboht in a table top rpg.
>>59063780I consider it canon to Galar that pro trainers court and receive sponsorships to get their income. I imagine it as less common in regions where gym challenges aren't so commodified, but I do want to have one character be something of a Booster Gold-type sellout that's become a ruthless corporate moneymaker after becoming champion.
>>59063518>https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Special:RandomInCategory/Animation_charactersThis isn't very random, I just got Emma three times and once twice in a row. Feels weighted towards Horizon characters.
>>59063518Tell me writefaggots, is your MC a fucking HERO?
Shilling again, old thread was almost dead. Chapter 20 of Spice and Fox is out. Next one at the end of the month.https://archiveofourown.org/works/21307454/chapters/210738291Also>>59063518>GordieI imagine Will would have no idea who the hell he is, but compliment the guy's sunglasses and fit, and then backtrack and try and smooth things over when he realizes that the guy is a well known gym leader / quasi-champion material. If given the time of day he'd probably ask general trainer questions, maybe if there's anything different with raising Rock types, etc. etc.
>>59064395>Fat>Sunglasses>HandsomeI'm afraid Will won't be able to beat him, NTRmen are his greatest weakness.
>>59063780Someone as strong as Leon shouldn't need to whore himself out to sponsors, but he's still a walking billboard. Why did he do it?
>>59064290My MC steals cable TV
>>59064512>Someone as strong as Leonthat's the catch, he's not strong. He's a League plant posed as the strongest trainer for marketing purposes, at least in my headcanon
>>59064499"Are you sure, Braixen?" Will asks, swallowing reflexively. "I don't want us to regret this, after."Braixen looks away for a moment, hesitating. The fox is dwarfed in the padded motel chair, practically enveloped by it, the furniture only emphasizing how young and out of place she is. Little fuzzy feet aren't even close to reaching the floor. Her little yellow eyes slowly fall to the cheap carpet and stay glued there.The fox doesn't have it in her to look at Will. Instead she manages a small, reluctant nod."Okay, kid," Gordie says. "Get on the bed and assume the position."
>>59064290Not yet. But he will be! And he will not be recognized for it by society! In fact he will be you almost got me to and spoiler the ending:D
>>59064551>Will is a manwhore>Braxien is a cuckHow will Cuck and Fox bros ever recover?
>>59064290Yes, he's the brave hero who's going to destroy the world and save everyone.
>>59064290Heroes get BETRAYED, villains are...respected...
>>59064290My MC evades taxes
how I feel after writing using japanese names and honorifics
>>59064290It took a while but he is one now.>>59063518>MarlonIan would actually be really chill with him when Po Town’s not at war with a faction.
>>59063518>Jack Walker from Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the SeaDon't know anything about the movie other than what Jack's Bulbapedia page says and Hell no I'm not reading that plot summary.In general Vahnzimmig would be unhelpful to both Jack and the movie (probably.)Maybe Jack could adopt/take Vahnz in as a partner Pokémon? And perhaps get rid of his fear of water (yet to actually implement this.)>>59064290Lol, lmao even.
>>59064290kind off, he's the king of the assholes
>>59064290He is not a hero. But even though he's a coward, he will try anyway. And I believe that is a much more interesting kind of person.
>>59064659Kuzey...
>>59064558Hokage and King of the Pirates?
>>59064290She's is.She'll also become a Savior and actual literal Queen.
>>59064290No, but he isn't not a hero either. If you asked him the question he wouldn't understand.
>>59064290Yes, because my conscience willed it. He is nice and caring for it is already a cold world out there.
>>59064519It's hard to fake an unbeatable record with 0 losses
>>59064812All staged battles
>>59064812Not when you control who can and can't participate in your league.
>>59064290Yes, I like Jedi and DnD rangers and he fits both
>>59064843>>59064856Would be amusing to know what his peers really thought of a weakling they're obligated to pretend is the greatest. Are they all okay with it or is Rose forcing them to play along? Do the other Champions know/are they able to suss it out from their interactions with him? Is Rose paying all of them too?
>>59064290Nah but he'll do in a pinch
>>59064290He is THE hero.
>>59064974>weakling they're obligated to pretend is the greatestDepends. What if Leon is a league experiment to see if the power of friendship and belief could be artificially cultivated? At a certain point of faking it it could've become real. Of course it'll all come crumbling down the moment another champion takes off the kiddy gloves and makes him eat his first loss, but until then he might genuinely have the power of a low-tier champion thanks to his delusion-based power of belief and friendship.
>>59065012>Leon and his Charizard live a Bolt (2008) life where everyone around him including the rest of his Pokémon team are all paid actors
>>59065012Even stronger than that, Leon has shonen protagonist levels of dumbassery. He's horny for battle (He created the battle tower after his loss), gets lost on straight paths, and is dense enough to never notice the feelings of his redheaded bisexual childhood friend OR that his super suspicious boss is anything other than completely trustworthy.Leon has MC plot armor, which was stripped of him the moment a new MC arrived in Galar.
>>59063518Latias is so beautiful in every form she takes...
>>59065035>Leon literally has a Shonen PhysiqueBut without the MC upbringing of being faced with hardship and thrust into plot events. Could Rose's grooming and coddling of Leon have crippled his growth? Would Leon have actually won against Eternatus if left to his own devices from the beginning? How many fortuitous encounters were missed because one of his helpers steered him back on track right before his lack of direction stumbled him upon them?Almost makes me consider writing a story with an isekaijin abducting young Leon and being put through shonen hell because of it.
>>59065062Leon was BETRAYED by the narrative, raised to be the perfect stepping stone for the player.
>TRAPPED and BETRAYED is a lost art now...Either the new anime is really something plot wise and with a lot of edge or nobody cares about it.You would expect a few BETRAYED Liko by now because even now nobody mentions the other kid
>>59065356The fascinating thing about Horizons is that it's falling for the Gacha MC Problem, where the creators are only interested in shilling the male MC, but literally the entire audience either doesn't give a shit about him or actually hates him, and the female MC is the one they want them to actually be focusing on.
Remember kids, bad people aren't real in Pokémon and who knows, if you're lucky enough you might even get a cover legendary by saying sorry or losing your memories or something, they will also elect you as a mayor or something because LOANSHARKS GOOD And Silver got cucked as a son by some midget kalosian faggot I guess
I'm back from my shoulder injury /vp/I've returned to shill To Live is to Dreamalso have a good non-pokemon fc>Spirits in ArmsUS three-letter spook tasked with suppressing the supernatural gets an impromptu "vacation" to Japanhttps://www.honeyfeed.fm/chapters/180697
>>59065356betrayal fics will have their resurgence
>>59065676Glad you're doing better anon!
>>59065656erm, people can change
>>59065656If Courbeau was in IMO he would have beaten Fablegen all on his own. More connected and faster than the police he would have arrested the three L's they second they invaded the club, then he would have megaevolved his Scolipede and beaten Chien-pao and Celot.
>In one of the Ranger games, Mewtwo just exists in an Ancient Ruin of at least a thousand years agoI mean I already justified Genesect, albeit as a fully mechanical creation in my setting rather than a Cyborg. Does this justify Mewtwo for Fantasy/Old timey settings? Could even Muk & Grimer be justified?
>>59066426Easy, Mewtwo was made by an ancient civilization that wiped itself out. Tons of fantasy settings have technologically advanced pasts, sometimes seemingly for no reason there's just mechs.
>>59066426Yeah, alchemists bro. In most settings they're basically scientists and homunculus have been a thing since forever in greek myths too
>>59066426The third one right?
This is your new husband and your new wife. Say something nice about them.
>>59066457yea mewtwo was the final boss
>>59066426Dude I love the Ranger games, they're comfy as hell man.
>>59066426Actually made a theory last thread about this.>Random on the spot theory. Mewtwo is actually a Phione style legendary child species of Mew that actually occurred in nature once upon a time. Maybe like the Cain and Abel to Mew's Eve. They had regular lifespans and eventually evolved to become every other species of pokemon. This would explain how there are somehow naturally occurring phenomena associated with Mewtwo, and potentially why there are somehow more than one beyond the possibility of other clones being made.
>>59066496Or maybe multiverse conqueror Giovanni did fuck around more than we know
>>59066307Who are you kidding, he would’ve tried debt trapping Emma, or he would’ve tried to get Aunt Vi, who simply beat the shit out of him and imprisoned him in a secret room in the chateau. When she’s not beating the shit out of him, she uses him as a slave to sate her desires before tossing him aside to be used again.If Corbeau is never mentioned in IMO, im going to assume this is canon btw.
>>59066496>>59066536What if Mewtwo's creation some kind of forgotten or ancient project and other individuals (mainly with Fuji's research) managed to rediscover it in modern times? Maybe that way the could have known about Mew's abilities considering how rare it is in the first place.
>>59066307>>59066640Still deciding what to do with the Z-A cast, tbdesu. They might or might not come up the next time they return to Lumiose, but that is a very funny alternative if I can't come up with something better. Though VI might prefer a big, sweet himbo like Ivor she doesn't have to worry about snapping in half.>>59066481There was a time I had Carmine as Juliana's other wife before I decided that was probably over the top.
>>59066693>CarmineNot far enough!
>>59066481I honestly don’t care about any of the gen 9 waifus at all. Normally at least one catches my eye, but not this time.
>>59066640And he would have succeed, Emma is no genius, especially in IMO.
>>59066693Why not give Florian more bitches instead of Juliana?
