A thread for the creation and discussion of fan fiction and other fanworks - anything that involves a story and/or reading.

>Thread question:
What do you think about Monotype teams vs non-Monotype? Do you think rising different Pokemon types should require different food or training methods, or do you prefer a simpler approach?

Old:
>>56845319

>>56880849
It did. Well played.

>What do you think about Monotype teams vs non-Monotype?
Monotype makes sense for gym leaders, since they're supposed to validate trainers, not actually survive in the wild on their own.

>Do you think rising different Pokemon types should require different food or training methods
I would expect that diet respects the biome that the Pokemon inhabits and perhaps the creature it mimicks when applicable. But we've seen generic kibble in a few ways, so likely there's a common good-enough menu, at least in the short term.
>>
Imagine, an Ice type tricking you into licking its dick, then telling you the only way to get your tongue unstuck is to make him cum

>>
>>56880891
Not to ape nutrition man, but you'd imagine each type has different broad needs as far as intake and further differentiates in species, given they deal with different kinds of magic and/or matter/energy manipulation. As for training, I think that's more goal-oriented. You wouldn't train a strength competition Machoke the same you would a badge circuit one, for example. A contest or other skill show mon would be different than one employed as a Pokémon Ranger partner and so on.

Confess. How many of you snuck your fetishes into your fanfics? No need for details.
>>
>>56881386
You've gotten it backward.
You write the story and it gives you new fetishes.
>>
>>56880861
>What do you think about Monotype teams vs non-Monotype?
Monotype for actual, sanctioned, roadblocks like gyms and E4, but non-monotype for other stuff. More 'purposeful', I guess.

>Do you think rising different Pokemon types should require different food or training methods, or do you prefer a simpler approach?
Food, probably, should be more specialized, maybe to Typing and form. I figure most fire types are all going to need something similar, but you wouldn't feed a Growlithe the same stuff as a Charmander, after all.

On the other hand, if you trained a Growlithe you could probably train any of the other dog pokemon roughly the same, so Boltund, Greavard, etc would just need a bit of tweaking.

Anyway, my question for the thread is-
I'm batting around an eco-terrorist organization in the likes of Aqua and Magma, but the region they'll be for is a desert shithole. Would 'preserving natural caverns (that happen to be hiding their base)' be a decent front, or is there something better I can do?
>>
>>56881417
Nice to see someone tackling Orre. As for their front, they could be posing as preserving the last few underground groundwater tables or other vital resources that either come from those caves or have been manually transferred there due to their importance. Maybe the region happens to export a whole lot of a certain mineral and their extraction is a highly regulated business, or maybe they had to resort to artificial farms due to the harsh climate topside.
>>
>>56881386
My next fanfic will be based heavily around one of my fetishes. It's nothing too bad (pretty much every anime has at least one of these types of scenarios), but I think it's at least worth a heads up.
>>
>>56881438
I never said Orre, but that's a good idea. I was already planning there to be at least one mining company and a few other interested parties investigating the region for potential materials.

Who am I kidding, the 'eco-terrorists' are another Cipher front.
>>
>>56881499
Or maybe not. Maybe in the Cipher underworld power vacuum, Snagem got their head out of their asses and became a proper, respectable criminal outfit. Make Gonzap's experiences with Cipher teach him what not to do and how to skirt the potential do-gooders that might pop up. Or make the new leader someone that took over (willingly or not) from Gonzap and make the MC have to reach out to him to know how to navigate the seedy underbelly of the crime world to get access to the evil team's base/learn their true objective.
>>
>>56881386
I put a scary violent Houndoom in my VN that had Jasmine in it, specifically as a reference to THAT image.
>>
>>56881625
What image? You didn't post anything.
>>
>>56881386
Not deliberately, but as mentioned in the last thread my MC's aunt is over six feet tall, dark skinned, muscular, and dances in a somewhat provocative way in her profession as a DJ. I just wrote it because it fit who I wanted her to be as a character but a friend clocked me that she checked all my boxes and I was writing her unconsciously horny.
>>
>>56881386
Aye

>>56881662
Clearly you need to change that. Time to be consciously horny from now on.

>Female or Male OC and a Ralts as his/her starter

I don't hate this trope, but sometimes it could be done a little bit better.

How do you even feed a Gible? They eat metal iirc (or was that only anime exclusive?) so would a trainer go look for whatever they can find or buy top notch from some factory?
>>
>>56881732
I don't remember anything mentioning gible or its line eating metal, and the dex entries say Gible hunts "prey" so it can't be a diet of metal. Sounds like another fanfic the anime made up.
Maybe you're thinking of aron?

What are the most fucked up ways you could torture someone with the help of Pokemon?
>>
>>56881386
Four times so far, but each is something new.
>>
>>56883118
Endless timeloop, or using poison and psychic types to give him pleasure beyond human limits to turn him into a mindless zombie
>>
>>56883118
Intubate a fucker in a oil drum, hooked up to air and enough nutrients (maybe), and fill that shit with Brine. Pickled human for the low cost of like, 4 power points.
>>
>>56883118
Scramble nerve signals to in constant agonizing pain with Psychics. Constant drip of organ corroding poisons. Slow and deliberate cuts/incisions with sharp Steel types. Constant mindrape from either Psychics or Ghosts. Electro torture. Waterboarding. Constant beating from Fighting types coupled with accelerated healing from Grasses/healer-esque mons. Burning alive (including using lava). killing bodyparts through frostbite and getting creative with them.
>>
>>56883118
Have pokemon perform logic tests that prove their sapience, then have the pokemon pass the harkness test, then hire the pokemon as an employed worker with a legal citizenship in your region.
Verily, this doth sound like quite the torment for some.
>>
>inventing a new legendary to use its purpose in the world as a major plot device
Forgivable or cringe?
>>
>>56883378
Fakemons are cringe on principle but how forgivable it is depends on the concept I guess. If you have Arceus a brother or daddy I'd be cringing hard, but if you gave a weird eldirtch legendary that "orchestrated" the dance of the unown it could be forgivable but still cringe.
>>
>>56883118
Use a psychic pokemon to implant memories of experiences so extreme as to be fatal, such as drowning in a vat of stinging insects, or having individual body parts mutilated or removed countless times.
>>
>>56883378
All fakemon are inherently cringe. You really can't use some pre-existing Pokemon for that purpose?

Have the mental strength to read books written by a wide variety of women or base her off the women you personally know or knew. I'll also tell you a secret: no one actually wants to read a realistic woman, real people are gay and annoying and this goes for the men too. Just write a likable one based off what you've enjoyed in your favorite characters.

It requires empathy. I don't mean feeling bad for them, but really being able to imagine and think through their circumstances and what their corresponding mindset would be.

>>56884470
Fortunately you will never be a real woman, so you'll never be able to write a broad array of realistic women like you would men.

>>56884470
>Fuck off, men and women are different.
Sure they are, but women are closer to men than they are to what anime taught you women are. You'll need to accept your starting point and work from there.

>>56885613
The short answer is "be born with it". The long answer is start by humbling yourself. As long as you see yourself as special and unique, you won't want to accept different realities. Empathy is about being able to imagine walking a mile in people's shoes and sympathizing with their circumstances; recognizing your own privileges and luck in relation to someone in a distinct (often less fortunate) situation, so the more you feel yourself, the less you're able to do that.
Doesn't mean you can't like your own situation or be proud/happy/content with your circumstances and who you are, but you need to be able to set that aside and be willing to see things from different perspectives.

By not mistaking low movement speed with low overall speed. A gator might not be able to run fast, but catching something within snapping range is another story, and once you're got you aint getting out. It's a common issue dexfags have that they fail to understand: one strike is often all it takes for a dexfag to get crumble or get caught in a combo they can't power out of.
>>
>>56887420
Something else for reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5KBMhw87n8
You might have noticed this one's done major rounds around the internet. The knight was relatively slow, but each movement was as calculated as it was powerful. A lot can be done in a small movement, there's no need for that flashy zipping around.
>>
>>56887420
Simple: you find a way to make the opponent come to you. Usually the trade-off for nimble movement is overwhelming power and bulk. Frail speedsters can't win if they don't engage, so you either make sure you can tank whatever they throw at you, or you use ranged options so they can't stay away and have to come in to try and stop your assault.

Men are capitalists and economists. They look at things as a transaction. "Do this for me, and I will do a thing for you." or "I did this for you; now you should do something for me either now or in the future." This is why for example old timey organized crime has a lot of favors and debt involved in its operation. You inadvertently saved the Don's life; now he owes you a favor and offers to rub someone out if they're giving you trouble.

Women do not think like this, for better and for worse. Women are anarchists at the worst; socialists at the best. Women view the world as a mix of, "Look guys we all need to help here or it's not going to get done" and "I'm going to do what I want and you have no right to stop me." A woman might flip between "help me" and "don't fucking help me" while working on the same task, based on what seems to be needed in the moment.

If you want to be more subtle, women are worse at estimating dimensions, both in space and time. The part of their brains that deal with measuring based on sight is literally smaller. However women are much better at multitasking, including both "remembering a bunch of different things at once" as well as prioritizing which needs to be done and when. That's not something you can just outright say to your reader, like "Joan couldn't figure out whether the box would fit in the car because she's a woman; while John struggled to remember the grocery list because he's a man" or whatever, but it's a little thing you can keep in mind while writing. Maybe Joan was late to The Event because she was wrong about how long it would take to get there; or John forgot about The Event because he had three other people asking him to do things at the same time.

Also men are considering every woman they encounter within the ages of 15 and 45 as a possible mate, whether they'll admit it or not. Women are constantly thinking about women as well; the difference is a woman is constantly comparing herself to all of them.

Pick a person and think about them, about their perspective, their experience, who they are as far as you know, and who they might be out of your sight in the private moments, what might have made them the way they are. Really try to put yourself mentally in their shoes, to feel what you think they must have felt or what you would feel in the same situations that made them. You can practice on someone close, someone you happen to know a lot about, someone you like or dislike. Read a biography or an autobiography, watch a documentary, listen to courtroom victim testimony, courtroom defendent testimony, etc, and when you're done really give some focus and thought to the person's world before you move on to something else.

It's less about learning how to empathize than it is about about training yourself to empathize actively - reflexively. Thinking "mom would be happy if I called her" instead of "it's been a while since I called mom." Setting aside your superficial judgements of a person and considering how much more there might be to them that you may never know. Trying to care about and relate to things someone else cares about instead of nodding along when they talk about it.

It's a meme but this clip is unironically correct. Especially for a young teenager/adult.

If you want to make a woman character that has some sense of reason then she needs to be some level of tomboy, or have some sort of hormone problem with her ovaries.
I'm not bullshitting you on that last one, you ever speak with a woman that has PCOS? They're basically a dude because they don't have female hormones raping their mind 24/7.

Humanity would be very different if humans had mating seasons instead of menstrauating.

Remember, writing a women like this does not = make her a roastie toastie who sleeps with 100 men a week.

Dumb and pointless because we already have Zoroark disguising as human. I think some ghost pokemon can do it too. Ditto can probably do it to some extent. And then there's psychic pokemon doing illusory shit...

He's probably just inspired. For a regular pace aim for 4-6k per week. That pace prevents burnout after the initial fervor of writing a fresh story starts to wear off.

As I opened the door to my apartment I was greeted by the sight of my beloved wife gardevoir being fucked by our trainer, Redo-sama. Her dress was up around her waist and she was leaning forward over the arm of a large sofa as he fucked her from behind. This was the first time I had seen my wife being fucked. I had eaten cum from her pussy, but never seen a dick in her cunt, not even mine.

My dick throbbed with anticipation as I watched. "Like what you see cucky boy?" she gasped as redo-sama fucked her hard with his huge dick. I nodded my approval and moved closer. Gardevoir kept her eyes locked on mine as he fucked her, only closing them briefly as she came.

"Watch me cucky, watch me get fucked", she gasped as Redo-sama's big human cock slapped into her little poké pussy.

"He is cumming in me now", She gasped and redo grunted, "he is filling your little wife with his hot cum".

He plunged his big human dick into my wife's cunt and held it there whilst the last of his cum drained into her pussy.

With Redo-sama's balls finally empty, gardevoir sat back on the couch and opened her legs for me, letting me watch as a drip of his cum oozed out of her pussy.

"Clean me up, cucky", she instructed and I dutifully buried my head in her crotch, lapping up my trainer's still hot cum from her pussy. When I had swallowed the last of his cum from my wife's pussy she kissed Redo-sama hard, with a passion I had never felt in her before.

The same way any random gal doesn't really have the basis to complain about a man's stereotypical flaws. Men and women are wired differently and neither can quite understand the other properly, just make guesses and approximations based on personal experience.

The speed at which an honest and neutral critique can cause mediocre writing to vanish is amazing.
If only it worked on the actually bad writing.
And then the good writing doesn't get critique at all because it's on a level higher than that of most would-be critics so they have nothing to say except "good job, moar?"

Pokemon want one thing: to become the optimal killing machine. They give their entire life over to weak humans whose society and intelligence are suited to honing them into weapons. Foisting such a critical decision as evolution back onto the pokemon is not only cruel, but a betrayal of the core responsibility of a trainer and indicates an inability to understand or respect the nature of pokemon. It's despicable that they even let people like that have pokemon.

New chapter of my journeyfic, In Mine Own is up.

Emma leads the others to the doorstep of Professor Sycamore, the foremost Pokemon researcher in Kalos. What can he tell them of their mysterious foes, and what connection might there be between them and the man who once dreamt of a beautiful world? And what aid can he give Kuzey and Herri to help them face Agent Celot? There's only one thing for trainers setting off on a new journey: new Pokemon.

I decided to take a look at it. The writer started a sequel to it earlier this year and it's already at 8 million words so there's a combined 24.7 million words but I wonder how many of those words actually contribute to any sort of plot when the entirety of the most recent chapter looks like this.

It’s a certain major city, and the fakemon are largely based on the history of it

>>56893963
Considering the fent situation in my town you may have given me an idea
>>
>>56897606
Now thats an idea ive been thinking about as well.

I always thought that "mercenaries" work in specific case by cases. I'd suppose that the definition of "mercenary" will be different in a world that doesn't have a propensity for war like Pokemon. But I'd say they work something along the lines of bounty hunters / oddjobers: some mercenaries specialize in research, accompanying researchers to the deep wilderness to help them in research, others may be hired by private enterprises for specific purposes (silph co. Pinkertons).

There are very few mercenaries put there that could handle tasks in the range of E4, and those who are able to aren't in the good side of the law for whatever reasons.
>>
>>56897606
I imagine them as trainers who for some reason or another have been barred from official League participation, and turn to their skill as trainers to live off the grey market. People accused of stealing Pokémon, or committing violent crime, or otherwise violating the League's bylaws in a way so egregious no other penalty fits.

Presumably a lot of mercs would be middling trainers at best, and might wind up falling in with a criminal organization like Team Rocket for stable income, but the best of the best would be freelancers who can afford to make clients come to them.

>>
>>56899338
>tell me about this concept tho, were they fallers?
Not fallers per se. They were part of a story idea I had in 2018. Warning, lotsa autism here:
>basically, Ash would travel to a region where he'd meet Damian/Blankface (picrel)
>both would banter constantly about goals and stuff, because Damian quit being a trainer for being a loser
>one day, Damian finds out Ash has Ho-Oh feather that allowed him to leave everyone static cause Ash has a fear of growing up
>Damian calls him out, Ash feels ashamed and undoes the de-aging, turning him into a teen
>some shit happens, Ash is left broken and parts ways in bitter terms with Damian
>Ash ends up meeting Anabel again and becomes a Frontier Brain, and becomes super bitter and distant towards his friends
>Anabel is pretty much his emotional support
>but after some shit where Ash and everyone have to take down Team Rocket for real, him and Damian come to peaceful terms

Nowadays though, I'll still use them, but they'll just be regular alternate universe variants, rather than making them through an edgy phase. Ash won't be an asshole, just classy because he has Anabel for a girlfriend. I call them the Battle Sire and the Salon Queen.

Do you write champions, gym leaders, and e4 members as being proactive members of society? As in, they actually go out and try to resolve issues? I still find it very strange that Steven and Cynthia aren't known to be champions in their games until right when you fight them.
>>
>>56901638
If the Pokemon League and organized pokemon battling didn't exist, then the 1% of obsessive pro-level trainers would have no outlet for their desire for battle and proving themself, and at some point some of those people would go on to become warlords, mercenaries, or other types who are at risk of destabilizing civilization. Having an organized and somewhat productive outlet for pokemon trainers keeps them from going off the rails and hurting people.
>>
>>56901728
Gym Leaders are local community figures that are socially expected to help people and Pokemon in their times of need. Beyond that, it's just a job that some people have with regulations in place for their behavior. Champions and E4 members are that to a much greater degree, basically figureheads for their region overall. They're (socially) tasked with addressing issues and crises in their respective regions, ie, dealing with evil teams and take over the world plots if they arise.

>>56907813
Most of those can be made reasonable, and the rest you're just complaining about fantasy elements.
>Aqua and Magma have average IQ
How is this a problem? Setting aside the memes, their concepts aren't that stupid. One wants to expand humanity's influence and create more land for humanity to live on, the other wants to protect nature and stop/punish humanity's expansionism. There are dumber things that people fight for IRL.
>Multiverse Giovanni
It's magic, bitch, I aint gotta explain shit. Rainbow Giovanni successfully took over the world in his universe and sought to expand his empire across dimensions.
>Cyrus plan
What about it, other than just how dangerous it is to oppose beings that can be considered gods of space and time? He went in with plans to deal with them. He knew the Red Chain would control them.
>Ghetsis retarded idea
Not "retarded" just extremist and diabolically evil. He formed a cult and groomed a figurehead to lead that cult for power. Look through our own history enough and you'll find similar things.
>Lyssandre's purge
Lysandre did basically the same thing as Cyrus but on a smaller scale. Told people he would make a better world, secretly wanted to nuke it. His own personal success helped him gain a following and his obsession saw him grow it.
>Rose's
Rose made a few bad ideas but it can be understood. He had a savior complex and felt that only he could do what was needed to be done. He felt he had to deal with the crisis in his lifetime because he didn't trust anyone else to do it. His timetable was still shit, though, which is another good example of how fanfic can remove elephants that only exist in the original canons.
>Time travel/imagination
It's magic, bitch, I aint gotta explain shit. Shit's like a bunch of paper folding and interlinking with other folds of paper.
>>
>>56901728
My understanding of this is that Gym Leaders are expected to handle the stuff going on in their cities, and E4/Champions are only expected to do work in dire circumstances/champion time, and even then, it depends on how proactive they want to be. If there's nothing for the E4/Champ to do, they're collecting the equivalent of unemployment cheques and are free to do whatever they want.

I can see a strong anti-human greed sentiment forming after what happened with Greater Mauville Holdings. The company horribly mistreated pokemon and even treated their human employees like slaves all in the name of furthering profits and progressing humanity.

It's just so weird that Gamefreak has all this background lore that ties directly into their main story, but they never bring it up. It's only ever in the background, forcing people to go digging through hidden messages and puzzles just to figure it out.
How hard would it have been to just give Archie a line about his time in GMH and how it radicalized him? Or Maxie giving a line about how frustrated he was with GMH being shut down despite the work they were doing for humanity, so he decided to step up in their stead?

>Archie, Maxie, and Wattson used to work for/with them
>They bribed a Devon employee, Tabitha, to learn about Infinity Energy(basically pokemon's life force) and its usage as a power source
>They researched IE on their own and discovered Natural Energy
