>you seem like you're carrying that entire office yourself
There's really no being humble about it, but that was the gist of the conversation. They said they already hired someone for my old position and that if I'm not interested in applying for the newly available management role (insert very exaggerated winkie face here), that they have no further need of me. Message received.
I think we've all heard of fake job listings at businesses but I didn't know this is what it looks like from the inside. What's so complicated about just offering a promotion? Why go through all the trouble of putting up a listing if your sights are set on a guy you already own? Am I out of touch with the corporate world?

>Am I out of touch with the corporate world?
The answer is yes and no. You see, believe it or not the corporate world is starting to update JUST NOW. Many companies are owned by families, but as we all know, modern day corporations are less about "the company is from Mr. X", and more "this company is Y of the Z market". And now that the old farts are dead, corporations will become AI owned before we know it.
Brands are what is important today, and everything is starting to move like a cog, so even promotions are cutthroat.
You think "why is promoting someone a threat?". Because your existence is an annoyance. Is not about "be promoted or you are fired!". Is more like "you better move here, or I'll find someone who does what I say."

The fact they bothered to tell you means you are somewhat valuable. Many promotions just happen, and then fire you because you obviously weren't prepared to work in that position. At least make sure you get a raise.

Progress report before bed. I feel like fantasy belts are really big for no reason. Even after adding the buckle to make it feel less empty, it still feels small. I know Aether has this bigass star on his belt. Same goes for the original drawing having a huge ass buckle. No, I'm not tracing over the whole thing, I'm just using it as a reference for proportions. I wonder if I should keep the skirt or just go with "baggy fantasy pants" (look it up) like Aether since that's what this outfit is a bit based off of.

kukuku, they'd love to snuggle up to a pretty actress from Tisch. They'd also enjoy crunching on shaunberg's feeble arms, leaving him alive but unable to post ever again.
This year, I'm thankful for the Cynthia lookalike who got shaunberg kicked out of uni, and the campus cops who made sure he'll never be able to get into another one. It's always a joyous occasion when kikes like shaunstein get kicked out of yet another place, to match the 109 his (((kind))) already got kicked out of. It's even funnier that he had to beg his betters to tell him what 109 stood for, just like he had to beg his fellow /lgbt/-posting troons from shitcord and primitive junglemonkeys from sharty to spoonfeed him on how to ban evade, since his IQ isn't high enough to figure any of that out himself. One can't help but notice how it's always the kike shills and their hired shitskins who support him, or his filthy jew family that lets him reset their routers, or his fellow jews who let him beg them for freebies.
He'll never be able to deny this because shaunberg, as a yid, has no spelling errors when typing in his native language, yiddish. Meanwhile, whenever he tries to type in English, so many typos abound. This alone is enough to out shaunstein as a filthy jew, who was kicked out of Nasser Yorat University and not New York as he tries to imply, and was rejected from the University of Tel-Aviv and not UTM. As a member of a (((tribe))) with a professional victim complex, shaunberg's only available instinct when punched by a single pajeet was to curl up and beg for mercy, then play the victim later, rather than fight back like a real man would.

Y'know, it really is something how you can make a motif come across so strongly in your designs that there is almost never a single detail that isn't exactly where it should be.
Congrats on your future cameo making it big. Be sure to remember the rest of us when Ivy becomes too cool to be seen with the amateurs.
>>57031535
Thank you so much for posting your WIPs, I feel it's super important for others to be able to see an artwork before it's finished. Too often, people look at a completed drawing and say "I could never do that, I wouldn't know where to begin." Critical context like this can be an invaluable learning resource.
>>57031646
Thank you. Personally, I prefer the Reuniclus line, but the Goth family is underrated. I appreciate how weird they all are, especially Gothita's adorable habit of getting right up in your business as if personal space was merely a suggestion.

Is Nyx ok? Does she need professional help? Therapy maybe? I'd be surprised if she got even a wink of sleep with that Banette around.

Erikosian Scraggy is Ice/Fighting type with thicker shed skins for Erikos' colder climate. I'm currently still ruminating on Scrafty's design, but I intend for Erikosian Scrafty to have a new original evolution as well. For Scrafty I'm thinking of pushing its shed skin into the direction of looking like a full hoodie, with it casually standing with its hands in a pouch most of the time. The line has sharp icicles that grow from its shed skin that it uses as knives in combat and Scrafty is going to hide them in its hoodie pockets, only pulling them out while in combat. I'm still trying to come up with ideas for Scrafty's evolution which has been a little tough, but I kinda wanted to invoke something similar to Kingambit in its design as a dominant leader-like figure in the evolutionary line.

>>57036493
The stuff you'd expect from a physical ice type, Ice Ball, Triple Axel, Ice Shard, Icicle Crash, the works. My idea is that the final evolution is a snow setting mon that gets its speed boosted in snow as well, basically capable in lore of whipping up a blizzard as its command, so it also has special moves like Blizzard or Sheer Cold for that, even though it's a pretty weak on the special attacking front. I intend for Aksel to make use of a lot of its ice moves as Hawk evolves, especially abusing Blizzard in double battle scenarios.

That’s Bibianon, commonly referred to as Bibi King. Bibi Montero is a Paldean girl with swirly glasses and a stand-in for the SV protag. She has trauma from a Koraidon attack and a nice supporting cast. Based character, best girl.

No, believe me, you did me a favor.
I was planning on making Shuppet and Banette into Dark Types since apparently all the cards that exist for them while I was planning my notes pre-date Ghost-Types being split from Psychic. I also wanted them to have pretty discordant Energy requirements for teh lulz.

For Shuppet, I planned to give it two moves:
>Infestation (1 Plant Energy, 1 Colorless): Place 3 damage counters on 1 of your opponent's Pokémon __(Don't apply Weakness or Resistance for this attack).__
>Bwehehehe (1 Dark): 30 damage. Return Shuppet and all cards attached to it to your hand __(If you don't have any Benched Pokémon, this attack does nothing).__

For Banette,
>Nyahahahaha (2 Colorless): 50 damage. Exchange up to 2 Energy between this card and up to 2 Benched Pokémon.
>Pincushion (1 Colorless, 1 Dark): Any damage dealt by the opponent during their next turn is reflected even if this card is Knocked Out.
>Will-o-Wisp (1 Fire, 1 Colorless): 40 damage. The opponent's Active Pokémon is now Burned.

For Mega Banette-X,
>Exorcism (1 Dark, 2 Colorless): 100 damage. Count the number of Supporter cards in your discard pile. For each Supporter card you find, place an additional damage counter on any of your opponent's Pokémon in any way you like.
>>
>>57037619
I feel like it's best to stick with just the card's type and colorless energy for most Pokémon's attacks
>>
Like dragon pokemon use two energy types because that's their thing
Having to use THREE different energy types to fully utilise a single Pokémon line isn't fun

Seemed pretty interesting and straightforward to me.
If the matchup isn't favorable, just peace out with Shuppet and free up those cards to put on something else.
Banette can shuffle Energy around whenever it feels like to rotate its tools or help a teammate while still dealing damage, so it's really not as restricted as you'd think.
Meanwhile, your opponent has to worry about Shuppet sniping any of their benched Pokemon, or Banette forcing them to burn through valuable Item cards or Retreat every time it uses Will-o-Wisp.

I will probably add more details to this tomorrow, so you should probably stick to just the sketch for right now. All you need to know FOR NOW is that this guy is a Chaotic Neutral socio/psychopath with two daggers and two flintlock pistols. This outfit is for his DnD AU. His additional mons are:

And in true fashion I have forgotten two very important details: he’s got a plate resembling a Weavile collar, and he’s drop dead gorgeous. Oh, and I haven’t even designed his shoes yet. Moral of the story is, wait until tomorrow for ALL of the finer details, I tend to update things a LOT. I can’t stick around rn, I have to go to bed.

He also is an Arcane Trickster, so if you want to have green fire emitting from his hands, that would be cool. Oh, and he likes making these different kind of smiles that I can’t describe in word really, I will provide references tomorrow of what I mean.

Also it might not be 1 to 1 but I think we made similarish characters kinda. Black hair, very feminine dudes who wear mostly black and red and both have Weaviles. But I guess yours is more of a pretty boy as opposed to my who’s more feminine especially later on in the story. Oh! And they both have hisuian Pokemon

Just give me the green light for when you’re ready mate

Pretty lady. Interesting choice about her footwear, one a boot, and the other a shoe.

Well, depends on the mood. Sometimes I just copy one story into another with a spin, other times I rewrite the tale with a different outcome. Other times I just have to read one prompt and go "that's a bad idea..... let's do it!", and roll with it.

That sounds like a fun approach, actually. I might have to try that some time!

Gonna be real: I dunno if that’s the nicest thing to say. “Oh actually I don’t really care for most OCs here other than the ones my characters would work well with”

It’s fine to have your opinion and your level of investment is your business, but it still sounds a bit mean-spirited. Maybe you didn’t mean it that way and it’s your RPfag OCD talking

>>57038973
Me being mean would be me saying I outright dislike most people's OCs. Indifference is not mean or insulting, just as I imagine the vast majority of people are indifferent about Emily.

Not really? Heck, I’m probably one of the people that vibes the least with your style and I’ve still made an effort to read through your stuff once or twice. I think every /tog/ creator and character is worth a shot, even if their ideas are outlandish for my taste.
>>
>>57039013
Well unfortunately what little of my ADHD that still has any sway over me makes it almost impossible to read anything I am not overly into. I don't dislike anyone's stuff outright but my ADHD-autistic brain causes all these new things that flooded into the threads lately to blend together. Ruka anon's one of the few exceptions cause I just outright like their art and a corner of my brain belonging to the personality for Mari likes Ruka as a character too. I have zero expectation for people to humor or read MY stuff if it doesn't outright interest them either, is only fair.
>>

Oh yeah and then there's the "asocial, grumpy cat" 'tisms that people tell me I have. That I tend to pay attention to and interact with people like once a week and am otherwise kinda just 'out of the house' for the other 5-6 days like some kind of stray. I kinda just drift away from people for days at a time and don't pay attention to much as a result. This includes interactions on 4chan.

>>57038851
Hey, no worries, dude. To be fair, sometimes I want to draw two organic legs on her, but the RNG of the table has spoken.

I've written far longer than I've tried to take my art seriously, but I've hit a bit of a block in that regard.

That said, I am trying to write a little bit of a thing for Amanda. I just passed 1k words for this, which is more than I usually write in one day.

Honestly, thank you guys so much for inspiring me to try my hand at this kind of thing again.

Well, here's my first draft of the first chapter for A Teacher's Troubles, a story centered around Amanda's struggles with her most recent class.
>>
>>57039437
Excellent, my reading list yet grows.
>>
>>57039437
As a former teacher myself, love everything about this
>>
>>57039540
Thank you.

My mom works as a teacher's assistant and my mother-in-law is a teacher, so I took inspiration from the stuff either of them said happened on the job.

Glad you like it! I'm not entirely sure how 9-11 year olds act from a first hand basis, so if the kids are poorly written, that's on me.
>>
>>57039550
Honestly kids vary. I've seen a vast array of from every grade. Some are as coherent as Hyde, some aren't (even up in high school). On average, kids in the 9-11 range are still going to respect authority but they aren't likely to be tricked by the quiet game unless they think the younger kids need to shut up too.

The ones who disrespect teachers usually have annoying as hell parents or guardians who allow the behavior at home and they'll often test teachers to see what they can and can't get away with. It's up to the teacher to set and enforce those boundaries in their class.

My only advice is make Kevin slightly shittier. Having him point and make it more personal by saying "Hyde got a F!" As an announcement to the class. It doesn't even have to be malicious, they'll just do thst because they haven't learned "you don't have to say everything you know" yet.

Assume children don't know social rules and you'll be fine.
>>
>>57039590
Oh also, i forgot to make the point in the paragraph about parents.

Their attitudes will be molded by their home life. Something to keep in mind when writing how they act out is why theye acting out. What is Kevin's home like? What is Hyde's parents relationship status?

Also another freebie: Kids like to tell you what they know. Show you what they've learned. Its all still mew to them.

This makes sense. Think about your Oc’s like your own baby. You’re going to have a bit of a bias towards your own creation no matter the situation.

And suddenly, I have a new contender for best writer to watch out for. Hehehehe, maybe I shouldn't have been so encouraging. Great work, neighbor. I never had the opportunity to mention it last time, but I love Anastasios, he's a really fantastic antagonist with a lot of charisma to him.
I was pretty pleased to see ivy get mentioned in the text, I'm sure Ivy's creator will appreciate the cameo.
And I don't remember if I had picked up on the pun before, but it took until page 19 to read the family business as Lock and Sea Boat instead of Lock and Seaboat.

Admittedly I only did that because you guys knew her first name first, but I can easily change it so that the first name reveal is done by her coworker instead.

Damn, I feel I should've done something with the TQ and TT, but I spent all my day playing SMT, so I will do a gen for my other character: Judgement. He was the one more focused with SMT mechanics, even when the story was Pokémon at its core. I will answer the question tho.

>Your OC got called ugly
David usually ignores that, only answering with a "hmpft", but if one day his fuse gets burned, he just removes his jacket or coat and goes "What did you say?!"
He proceeds to scare the offender by repeating Samuel Jackson:

"What did you say?!"
>"What?"
"What?!"
>"No! I-I mean... wha-"
"What?! You speak 'What'?! From the people of 'Where'?! Are you a 'Who'?!"
>"No! Wha-"
"Say 'What' one more time! SAY IT ONE MORE TIME!!!"
>*Silence*
"Though so."
>*Hard punch to elbow*
"You better keep quiet or I'll shut you up myself."

And leaves. While he doesn't like to get into fights, he knows you only have to pretend you KNOW how to fight, so you avoid many fights.
But if hands must be thrown down, he will fight. Dirty if neccesary, he doesn't like to do it at all.
Side note: he will probably check the guy he beat to a pulp if he has any weapons. He knows that turning your back to an enemy may end badly.

Hey, do me a little favor and remove the space in [Ch. 08], as the actual shortcut in the text does not have that.
Your DM/GM/ST experience really shows in your descriptions. To no one's surprise, reading through Gilded Platinum sounds exactly like sitting across from a competent host, it really enthralls the mind's eye and it's easy to picture everything playing out like an episode of the anime. I do feel obligated to warn you that I see you falling into the same trap that I always do where you'll use the same description in a small window. "Struck a messy chord," followed just seven brief sentences later by "struck a chord." Piplup described as proud and then Aqua Ring enhancing its smug pride. Bumped shoulders immediately followed by pressed shoulders.
Also you forgot to capitalize the D in "Don't mind me," so unfortunately this chapter is totally unreadable.
Had a major "OH FUCK" moment during Selene's conversation with Ken when I finally remembered why her name sounded so familiar to me. My endless autistic knowledge gets scrambled around sometimes.

>where do you get your inspiration?
From the bottom of a glass bottle. :^)
Simplest method is to just ask yourself what kind of content do you want to see more of in the world and create that. What is something you think is lacking in today's society? What old ideas have been forgotten or neglected, or what other ideas could be fused together to create something new?
Personally, the main inspiration behind my writing is getting experience with a genre I wasn't well-versed in before. I like heavy dialogue and slow plots, I didn't really do full-on action scenes before Eons in Flux and look at me now.

What makes you say that? My genre doesn't seem to correspond to the more mundane interests of the others and my first 2 chapters were total messes as I figured out my footing and formatting since I don't normally write solo, and am very slowly putting the input and feedback on those 2 chapters into chapter 3 to see if I can finally settle into something and go forward with the same exact approach to things beyond said chapter.
>>
>>57040835
Well, I suppose I could, in theory, try to write something I want to see more of in the world or would challenge me. I think that would require me to make a new fanfiction with an entirely different OC, though, and I literally just started with my current project.

Still, an interesting set of ideas to keep in my back pocket.

I have a couple ideas in mind, actually, and one of them stars a character that may have been in one of Amanda's previous classes. Although it is INCREDIBLY cringe in the sense that my closest point in canon for humanoid aliens existing is fucking USUM, and unless a wormhole opens over Sinnoh, I doubt I'm gonna make the him one of those blue fuckers AND have him live there.

Besides, the fact that he's an alien isn't supposed to be common knowledge, so blue fuckery is out in general.

Thought about this a little harder, and remembered that fallers exist. Perhaps he's a foreign exchange student (seemingly) from Alola when Amanda taught him.

Alternatively, I could leave her out of this particular idea for now, and just straight up make Pokemon in Space. Extra cringe, but if Blueberry Academy can be Pokemon Underwater...

Point is, he's trying to learn more about his home "region", which just so happens to... not be on the main globe. I'm gonna embrace the cringe and there's not much you can do to stop me.

With that being said I should probably mention that Rose/V is a bit racist like most rich royals are. It’s actually why she was even able to talk to Piper without bugging or doing something stupid. She prefers “fair skinned” girls. And Piper being a tomboy who can break her neck definitely helped Rose get used to her presence despite also not liking Tomboys.

I wonder how she'd feel with Ruka. Technically Ruuka's Kantonian, ie. Japanese with a tan. I actually drew what an Ungyaru'd Ruka would look like. She's naturally pale but constantly and consistently tans to get her gyaru glow.
I just assumed Rosa would feel a little flustered since Ruka does have that in-your-face gyaru energy.
I've also been thinking about how I would write Ruka's interactions with Piper. I think Piper wouldn't like her much. She's very goal oriented and driven by a lofty dream. Ruka's a pokemon trainer merely because she finds it fun. Would probably make it seem like she's not talking battles seriously.

You had it on the money on their interaction. She would still be a bit shy around Ruka. Yes, she prefers lighter skin, but a girl is still a girl to her. And unlike Piper Ruka gives off the girly girl vibes. Post therapy Rose probably consider Ruka a 10/10 . Assuming you take that as a good thing

> I've also been thinking about how I would write Ruka's interactions with Piper. I think Piper wouldn't like her much. She's very goal oriented and driven by a lofty dream. Ruka's a pokemon trainer merely because she finds it fun.
Trust me Piper isn’t that deep. If anything she’d be mildly intrigued by the fact shuck a girly girl is even a Pokémon trainer and not doing something else like contests or gardening. Think of her as like a more tomboyish Nemona/Goku but unlike them she won’t pretend to be interested in the girly activities that Ruka and Rose want to probably do. She’ll just be chill, bored and maybe do some big sister pranks here and there but only when she gets a good read on how far with the pranks she can go with Ruka. If anything I’m more concerned Ruka would hate Piper

>>57043078
>If anything I’m more concerned Ruka would hate Piper
It's actually pretty hard to make Ruka outright hate someone. Most of her rivals are her rivals because they outright antagonize her or interrupt her fun in some way. And while Ruka's somewhat girly she does have a bit of a tomboyish side as well. Basically in high school she was a bit of a class skipping delinquent before getting her act together. A lot of people in-universe tend to think she's softer than she is and get caught off guard that she's willing to throw hands.
Especially if you insult Jynx. A very easy way to get on Ruka's bad side is to insult Jynx.

I like to think Ruka would try to team up with Rose to give Piper a makeover. With pretty limited success given piper's strength. But as a full time Gyaru, Ruka wouldn't wanna let that natural tan go to waste.

Interesting, I didn’t know that. Then I think Piper and Ruka would get along from that fact alone. Piper would start looking at her like her childhood bestie Britny who basically was like the tomboyish older sister to her. She taught Piper how to do all the crimes but in the story she mellows out and leans more towards the girly side.

And I don’t see Piper insulting jynx so they should be good there.

> I like to think Ruka would try to team up with Rose to give Piper a makeover. With pretty limited success given piper's strength. But as a full time Gyaru, Ruka wouldn't wanna let that natural tan go to waste.

I was going to say Piper would never put on make up but as long as you promise her something at the end of it like food or a battle she’ll let it slide and remove all of it after 20 to 30 minutes. But Skirts and Dresses are a no go for her. That’s her red line

>>57043382
Figured someone in this place would say that. But just so you know Rose is actually one of the more tamed racists in my story. Now the real racists that are fully aware of their prejudices are Rose’s parents and Rose’s first girlfriend named Gali

Gali was bad at first but got worse when she got cucked. She went from calling Piper a commoner to a Mankey in a matter of minutes

Midge update: did some rp with someone on the kairos server. They immediately shifted into Yuri mode with their goth lady character. I stayed in character while trying to get across that Midge is more into her bugs right now. Definitely should have just messaged and said "I'm not here for that" but I assumed they were going somewhere with it. Like some joke payoff or something. I really backed out hard when they made it clear that that WAS the payoff. Still, she made a friend since they backed off respectfully. Moving forward, obviously I will be shutting thing like this down the instant I notice it.

Also, Midge has a combee (female) now and I can't think of a name for her

I knew midge was cute but I didn't think she'd be kabedon'd on her debut rp. Thus ends the Midge update.

It’s really just trying to keep pace with the bar you’ve set. Yeah, Anastasios is cool. Weird how writing different characters shows how much internal material you have to generate for a particular trait. I think I had a lot more fun writing unhinged dialogue. Maybe I should be worried.

Some of those users on the Kairos server… I don’t know. They’re a little iffy.
Midge is one of those characters I must resist the cringe eagerness to white knight for. Protect that creation.
I’ve done PTU in the past, but all regular sessions fell through. Might try jumping into a quest soon, but for sure need to lurk a little more to ensure the brand of cringe is acceptable.

>Sayonara, Bibi-Sensei
The art is incredible as always and the fact that it held consistent from beginning to end shows your experience. The differentiation of size of the panels and having characters bleed through made it really dynamic.
I liked the laundry list of Bibi’s despair. It put all of those cool skeleton drawings into perspective. Especially the part about assigning her to paperwork as League Club President. Knowing what Bibi has been through and smiling through most of it, how could Drayton do that of all things. He deserves to be made fun of. Or worse.
>As for what’s exactly going on… Don’t think hard about it.
Too late for that. Was this similar to something that happened in Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei? I’m 90 in a 60 zone after those last panels. It’s absolutely something she would do to protect her friends. Bibi is going to be OK right? She’ll walk it off? The seal of absolute cinema.

>Tales of a Dragon Whisperer

Needed to read this sooner it was enjoyable.
Hemlock is truly evil to spread such an awful gimmick to Alola. He must be stopped. You have Silas’s backing. Give him a Match Call on the Pokenav/Pokegear and he’ll cruise right over.
When are we getting Chapter 2? I want to see some corporate lackeys get crushed. It’s interesting that Koa’s dad seems so steeped in tradition, and so ready to throw his son away to Unova. Don’t make Koa go to Unova. I can’t imagine him trying to fit in with any kind of yuppie clothing.

>>57045266
Thanks, the biggest red flag was definitely when they started putting things like: "Midge would have left if she didn't want it" in their character's inner monologue. While I'm here thinking, "not while a woman much taller than her is holding her by the chin. When only srconds ago they were talking about bugs. That shit is intimidating for someone you just met." I hope that train of thought doesn't extend to that person's real thought process.which is also the point where I realized I should have said something sooner.

Just glad it had a friendly ending.

I almost forgot… a Kairos server? They do RP there? I kinda forgot what Kairos was. Could I get a TL;DR on that or would you guys rather I forget? Any place where RPing is done is deserving of my attention.

One time, I used Koa in a Pokécharms RP about a battling academy. I fought a kid with a Sneasel. Mo-o hit the Sneasel with TWO Close Combats and the guy “barely hung on” and he spammed Psycho Cut, a move he was NOT registered to have on his sheet, and I eventually let him win because whatever

Me, but not for the reasons you'd think.
Back in the 2000s I remember there was a Bionicles show, but I skipped it because anime started to breakthrough in many TV channels. In fact, it was the beginning of anime-focused channels, so I ignored it because the chinese cartoons looked interesting.

>>Sayonara, Bibi-Sensei
ahaha for complete context, the majority of the chapter isn't based on any 1 scene but the overall style and format of an SZS chapter but with pokemon themed gags, and the last 5 pages are more or less the last 5 chapters in condensed form

ending spoilers but in szs it is revealed the deuteragonist, kafuka, has been dead all along, and her ghost taking turns possessing different members of the students in her class who had all bungled suicide attempts before the story and received life saving organ donations from kafuka, who died in an accident herself. it is hinted that this is why the students are all romantically interested in their teacher, as they all embody kafuka's will. at least, this is my interpretation of events, there's lots of theories and alternate explanations, but this one's the most popular one. notice how i never portray nemona, bibi, arven, and penny all at once except for the page with the blackboard, and how there's mysteriously blacked out panels when a character who should be onscreen is otherwise speaking? yeah. bibi's ghost is taking turns bodysurfing through all her friends. or they're all hallucinating due to guilt. or....maybe you've got your own explanation for what's going on!

Heh, same. I was doomed to be a video game nerd from the moment I first learned how to read and coached my older sister through beating Brock, but that damned toy commercial got the endorphins rushing every time it played on TV.

>>57045564
So meticulous it's scary! Thanks for the breakdown. The series itself sounds like a good read Hits that line of bittersweet that should exist in Pokemon, but doesn't over extend into a needless edge.
Good to know even after a hypothetical Bibi is gone, that her impact isn't forgotten. Convenient everyone needed different organs and were a match.

it's a fun read/watch if you like satire, suicide jokes, and fanservice but it's also like. 300 chapters (and while the anime brilliantly foreshadows the ending in its openings, it never covers it). i also was absolutely not lying in my afterword about having to read a bunch of translators notes after each chapter unless you're intimately familiar with japanese history, pop culture, etc, there's a ton of irl references in it. but if that doesn't put you off go for it! on another note, given bibi picked a fight with drayton and hit him first, lost said fight, and lied about what happened in her groupchat to save face after he was pretty much nothing but nice to her for those first few weeks at blueberry, she totally deserves a little bullying

Aksel would probably get pushed into a tournament like that by Hanako. He's pretty low key most of the time but get his blood pumping in something like this and he can get pretty intense, especially if someone were to take advantage of him having a bit of a short fuse.
As far as how good he'd do, he's got experience but he's more of a street fighter than anything else. He could probably put up a fight with his stature alone and would go for a quick knockout and would play dirty however he could, but anyone with more training would probably deal with him easily if they had time to adjust to him.

Last one alive cleans up the place, if there's a place to clean still standing, that is.

Hopping on the draw Piper train to welcome our new friend.

>Thank you for the wonderful gift of Miko.
I should be the one thanking you. I'll heed your warning and truck along with what I got going for now- but I'll still strive for greatness cuz you guys desreve it.
>>57046829
Remember me and refer to me however you like, I don't mind either way. Sorry if I missed it but is there a way you want us to refer to you as? Star Platinum anon? Piper anon? best artist anon?
>Gonna make the strawberry parts on the pancakes look extra good
Can't wait to eat them with my eyes

I second these festive TQ's and T's and I'll pitch a few of my own following suit.
>TQ: What's on your OC's Christmas list?
>TQ: Uh oh, your OC's on the naughty list. What did they do to merit that?
>TQ: Your OC is short on cash and still hasn't finished their Christmas shopping- what do they do to make a buck or two in such short notice?
>TQ: Would your OC survive getting stuck in a blizzard? How?
>TT: Draw your OC toughing out a harsh blizzard.
>TT: /tog/ Christmas Party! Draw your OC celebrating with others!
>TT: Draw your OC in an ugly sweater.
>TT: Draw a winter scene featuring your OC.
These might be a bit more appropriate for later in the month but oh well.

>>task/question: randomly select another anon's OC, what present does your character given them?

I'm a big fan of these ones, can't wait to see them not show up in the next thread.
Let's have a good week, /tog/.

I don't know if Koa counts as scrappy, but it'd be kinda fun to see him trying to mimic a Kommo-o's fighting style
>>

I also need to add his veil and rapier. I think he’s going to put his rapier and rifle in a Bag of Holding because they might weigh him down otherwise and he also doesn’t use them as often since he doesn’t plan on having extended engagements.

A lot of the OCs in here don't really have anything exceptional to *themselves* though and rely more on their Pokemon than anything by virtue of being more mundane though. And I imagine a tournament arc between the TRAINERS would be boring as it quickly narrows down to the obvious freaks of nature among the OCs in this general.

Hence the midget is barred from entry.
Though I agree, a physical contest is boring. The best way to settle it is with the contest of gods: Mahjong
>>
>>57048997
Emily's not the only shonen genre protag we got in here by the way, so that ban list would likely have a few more spots filled in than you might think.
>Mahjong
Cringe.

>>57049001
>t. got tsumo'd on dealer turn
>>
>>57049028
Never played Mahjong. It just looks dumb and I'd rather be getting robbed trying to play Poker or Blackjack.
>>
>>57049030
I’ve played Mahjong a few times. Everyone who says it’s this high-skill, high-stakes gambling game is lying to you. It’s a lot closer to Go Fish. You just have to wait to get the right tiles to fill out the sets you need. The only gambling part is the discarding, really.

I should draw Koa playing mahjong with his dad and his mom. Dunno who the 4th player would be though

Make sure to make a new thread before this one expires people, cause I ain't doing it, I am going to bed.

It's ready. Don't get mad at me if I messed it up somehow.

>>57049437
Statistically, you're in the top 5 /tog/ OPs.
>>
>>57049486
Yaaay.
And all I did was copy-paste the OP text and fill in some areas that needed to be changed.
It really is that simple.
