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 are you working on? One shots, a long fic, just drafting or have you posted anything yet?Alternatively for non-writers what have you been reading lately.>Previous thread:>>58910512
Bingo for those need one, or want to post a filled out sheet.Pokemon having human genes counters for the 'pokemon genes' spot, and all major battles being skin of your teeth count for the gym battles spot.

>>58936828I've been daydreaming about how I want the next couple of scenes to go. AKA doing nothing.

>>58936828>TQStarted working on the next drafts of my WiP, what was previously going to take 5 chapters is now going to be three longer chapters. Some broad strokes remains the same but the details have changed a lot and allowed for more frontloading of exposition and for some characters to be better defined, which I like.I've started Tanya the Chansey alongside reading Game of Champions. I don't dislike game of champions but there's some incredibly silly things in like how how GIovanni and Lance refer to eachother by their number (i.e tenth and eleventh since that's which champions they were/are), Brock killing pokemon with his jetblack onyx named skyeater. Also Red remarking on how hot he finds lance and then Gary sending him a dick pic is funny. The exposition is very clunky, especially since the framing is that this is Red telling a story. That sort of thing worked in Moby Dick and to a lesser degree Dune because the main characters there were either learned in a subject the reader wasn't, (which wouldn't be the case with Red explaining basic facts and history to Rocket grunts, really he comes across like he just likes to hear himself talk), or we the audience were learning about new things with our reader and when not the narration, provided not in universe, was telling us about things we needed to be filled in on.Tanya the Chansey on the other hand is a lot more immediately digestible, cute, slow shenanigans with Tanya as a Hapinny in 2~3k word chapters that slowly introduce new concepts as Tanya learns about them.
>>58937006With this piece of shit.

>>58937490Nice to see you here, PokenormalAnon.
>>58937006>ride piggyback on my mon's shoulders>point somewhere in the distance>say "fake out">arrive instantly because apparently fake out doesn't have a maximum range according to most fics
>>58937552Do people really do that? It's a physical and a contact move I always assumed it was short ranged.
>>58937006It's weird that bicycles are almost never used when they were a main thing in the games, only Po Town has them from what I read
>>58937673Some. I've occasionally read it closing the distance across an entire arena instantaneously, even for weaker pokemon. Think I've also seen it used to catch flyers too.Weird how selective about game mechanics some writers are. Fake Out always works because it does in the games, but flyers aren't immune?
>>58937778I struggle with what level of "moves are real" I use. It seems obvious that some moves would be real and named, like Psybeam, but would Scratch? Bite? Bulldoze? And don't get me started on stuff like Taunt.Usually I just wind up describing an attack, but sometimes it's helpful to name it, but that always makes me feel weird.
>>58937797just use the anime and manga for unusual moves
>>58937847Speaking of I was reading Bunnies Land Sharks (I know, but it's a morbid curiosity) and the MC's buneary was completely immune to the enemy's Charm for no stated reason. Looked the other pokemon dead in the eyes as it went off and didn't get nerfed at all as it proceeded to wail on them.It's not just wrong, it's maddening. Absolutely.
>>58936828Any good ZA stories yet? Preferably with the male MC.
>>58937552>take out assassination contract>show my pokemon the target>currently located in another region>Swift>receive kill confirmation the next day because Swift never misses
>>58937797Rock climb summons pillars of earth but is a normal move.
>>58937887Not yet, although on ao3 there are already a fuck ton of self-insert woman/corbeau fics. Strangely, or perhaps expectedly, ZA is the only pokemon game I've seen MADs/GMVs about, probably since it tells a semi-competent, linear, and cinematic story. Although that's also true about B&W and S&M to various degrees. I think that might be the reason people have been a little less inclined to set a serious fic during it, besides there's so much wrong with XY's story if you're in Kalos you're probably starting there.The player is also kind of set on rails, no matter what you're going to be go through the royal and unlike becoming champion in most pokmeon games, it's not tangential to the main goal since a master of mega-evolution is required to solve the plot.Although there could be something done with a more realistic setting and mismatched incentives. The Royale selects for combat ability and ambition since the winner gets their wish fulfilled. The problem is that most people who fall into that category have wishes they can already fulfill through hard work, something the game itself struggles with since only Ivor and Grisham have wishes that would seem reasonable as wishes. With Ivor wanting wild areas abolished and Grisham wanting to restore his/Tea, Flare's honor in the eyes of the people.So you're doubtless going to attract corrupt individuals who think strength alone matters or have a warped worldview, and mind you the royale is essentially supposed to find everyone's savior.
>>58937552>catch Chatot>teach it to imitate voices from celebrities and politics>commit phone fraud
>>58938342>MADs/GMVsWhat’s that mean? I’m not familiar with the term.
>>58938429Game Music Videos, MADs is just the Japanese version of the term although I don't know what it stands for, but basically trailer, cinematic, cutscene, and gameplay footage is mixed together and music is put over it.
>>58938440Ohhhhh, those kinds of MADs. I do think the character customization and photo mode lend themselves to visual stuff more than prose. The trainer thread is still kicking.
>>58937797I think of them like spells, you use magic/type energy/aura/whatever to cause an effect. Be that some form of attack, or an esoteric effect like manipulating someone's mind. So, although oddly enough there's a difference between scratching something and using Scratch to cut into/through something.Although in Pokenormal there is a rather humorous moment where a woman realizes she can't punch a ghost because that's a physical/normal attack, so instead she bites it since bite is a dark type attack.
>>58937797I tend to try and visualize how Pokemon would use their bodies to enable their attacks. Charcadet doesn't have a visible mouth to spit flames from, for example, so it shoots Ember attacks from its eyes. And while a Crobat can use Air Cutter by slicing its wings, an Absol doesn't have the same appendages, and achieves a similar effect by vibrating its bristled fur or swiping its horn.
>>58938644>Charcadet doesn't have a visible mouth to spit flames from, for example, so it shoots Ember attacks from its eyesI was gonna say it should obviously transform its arm into a cannon since it's a Hitoshi Ariga mon, but apparently they're saying the entire Armarouge/Ceruledge line was designed by Kitakaze? Can't believe it
>>58938644how do you visualize a Doduo flying?
>>58938761Doduo achieve flight through true mastery of Flying energy control. Other Flying pokemon who still need to flip their wings to Fly are simply inferior due to the training weights their physiology allows.
>>58938774Truly domineering and unparallelled, already a half-step into Dodrio
>>58938761Long-distance flight I simply don't write because it doesn't make sense to me, but for something like the move Fly in battle I picture it bicycle-kicking its legs and flapping ostrich-like small wings.>>58938774I kneel. Truly a master of its Aura.>>58938759>I was gonna say it should obviously transform its arm into a cannon since it's a Hitoshi Ariga mon, but apparently they're saying the entire Armarouge/Ceruledge line was designed by Kitakaze?The aesthetics definitely line up, I was surprised too. But I wanted something to differentiate Charcadet's attacks from its evolutions, so naturally instead of Charcadet using an arm cannon, it's Armarouge and Ceruledge that Breast Fire
>>58938761>helicopter necksSad>flapping their heads up and down like a person using their arms to pretend to flyRad
>>58938761>>58938774>>58938801Same feeling
>>58938342>Not yet, although on ao3 there are already a fuck ton of self-insert woman/corbeau ficsYeah, I figured. I wanted to see if any character-driven story novelizations were being spun up.
>>58939080As always, be the change you want to see
>>58937887If I wasn’t working on something right now I’d probably end up doing something like that as it’s a fun premise and I’d love to try my hand at including XY characters into the story. MC would be a former Team Rocket member who’s trying to escape the old life and that would come back to bite him.
>>58936828At what do you struggle more when writing? For me it's descriptions. Either I feel there aren't enough and the text seems shallow, or there are too many and it reads pedantic.
>>58939518Am I having crazy deja vu or was something like this asked and answered in a recent thread?>>58939580Scene transitions are very tough for me, as well as keeping a balance in group scenes so everyone's contributing and not just scene dressing. I'll get near to the end of a chapter and realize that back near the very start, one trainer's partner DEFINITELY should have had something to be doing while dialogue is happening.
>>58939664Maybe? Either way it doesn’t matter. Too busy on my WIP.
>>58939518This is a based idea. If I had talent I’d take a crack at it.
Is she right bros?
>>58939518>Even 10+ years after RGBY you can't escape team rocketGrim. Although if we're talking about stories we'd like be to working on but are too busy to, I'd love to write an Alola story with the Ultra Beasts as Super Sentai villains, but without Necrozma. But ex-team rocket is probably one of the more compelling ex-evil team ideas in my mind, we already have ex-team flare from the games and ex-plasma from spe. And the other evil teams don't excite my imagination as much, if only because we stopped getting truly evil teams after a certain point.>>58939580 It's environmental descriptions for me. Followed by dialogue, but internal narration is easiest for me. It's probably because I write a script for a chapter more or less in my head while I'm writing, so unless there's a specific reason for a character to interact with the environment it goes unmentioned. At the very least I'm making good progress on my wip.>>58939664Not me, but I answered a similair question about wanting to write an Oddworld/Youjo Senkai fanfic. Aside from that Pokenormal has a ex-team rocket member as the mc.>>58939818Why else would you write a pokefic unless you want to write about people and pokemon?
>>58939818>>58939827Shame Ohmori forgot that, now everything is humanshit drama. Fuck, I can't believe I miss Masuda
>>58939850>saying this when the most recent game's entire story is all about pokemon to the point it doesn't even have a human villain???
>>58939580Physical descriptions, environmental and character actions.>>58939664Scene transitions are tough for me too. I've got a good system for group conversations though: In my notes I write out every single character in the scene and what they are thinking/feeling/hoping to accomplish in that moment. Helps remind me who is supposed to be there and when they might chime in.
>>58939818Considering the PMD games are widely recognized as superior stories to the mainline games, no. Also considering the sheer volume of peak human-only stories we have in our world, again no.
>>58939818I genuinely don't get it and I never have. Pokémon are animals at the end of the day. A human life will always be worth more than an animal life, and a human's life will inherently always be more interesting. Pokémon are nice as a backdrop for a story and because of the fights and stuff, but they're interesting because of the humans that drive their actions and take care of them. Am I the only one that feels this way?
>>58939862>Pokémon are animals at the end of the dayThe god of their world is literally a pokemon and it invented smartphones before humanity grew out of its witch trial phase
>>58939862Nah, I don't get this line of thinking at all. If you remove the Pokemon from Pokemon all you have left is a mediocre shounen with some half-assed sci-fi worldbuilding.
>>58939862Statistically speaking? No. There's bound to be at least one person who agrees with you, like >>58939858But more seriously, tons of stories have pokemon on the same level as human. But coming from a person who prefers for animal-like pokemon, I don't really understand that perspective. In the first place animals and nature as a whole can be really interesting.Besides that, the standard Shauntal has is humans and pokemon helping each other, and that's kind of a low bard to reach. I'm sure most fics can reach that bar unless the pokemon are entirely a sideshow and not really expanded on at all.
Best isekaijin/self-insert fics where the MC does a lot of cross-references between the games and actually being in a Pokemon world? I want to write my own, but I want to see how a writer handles that so I could formulate better my ideas, mainly how live battles work and how much of a staggering difference it is compared to the games. Just about anything where the MC makes a tons of differences between the games and actually being in the Pokemon world.
>>58939946The Most Evil Pokémon Trainer (which ALL OF US in this thread love btw)
>>58939909>But coming from a person who prefers for animal-like pokemon, I don't really understand that perspective. In the first place animals and nature as a whole can be really interesting.As a person who's fascinated with yokai/yaoguai and all other sorts of intelligent beasts I don't get how some people don't find the concept of intelligent beasts and spirits interesting. Especially in a setting like Pokemon where the beasts do all the fighting.
>>58939901Even WITH the pokemon added this franchise is a mediocre shounen as a whole, let's not pretend otherwise. It's just the slop we grew up with and have become autistically invested in.
>>58939966I don't know how people don't find it fascinating either. Pokemon aren't just setpieces, they're partners, full characters even if they're beasts who are limited in their understanding by biology like humans are. Not as prone to tool use, probably with some quirks of their species, and most importantly animals who have animal values that depend on the species and type of the pokemon. Sure a Growlithe and a Sneasel are both pokemon, but that's like saying a dog and a bird are both animals, and aside from values there's going to be varying levels of intelligence among pokemon as well. Although some fics, like ironically Hyphen struggle with making me invested in the MC's mons. There are also fics like Tanya the Chansey which make pokemon fully human in a lot more ways, such as having there be a more universal bias among pokemon in the civilized world against eating other pokemon so aside from ditto cloned meat everyone's a vegetarian.
>>58939818In terms of a story about man and Nature, it make sense as this is the central theme of Pokémon as a whole.
>>58939901>>58940008You're both wrong, even the games haven't reach that level outside of maybe the Orre games and no, not even PokéSpe is shonenshit.Want a good example? Look at the Kiseki franchise, pure shounen despite being shit
>>58940132Bro Ash was throwing around Aura Spheres and stuff
>>58939580I don't struggle with writing, I struggle with starting to write. Once I get going. Though I suppose I'm probably not that great at describing details. Well, less that I'm not good at it and more that I find describing certain things boring. Like people's appearances or clothing. Its one of the reasons I don't really even bother describing my characters in depth. I'd rather be vague about appearances and let readers come up with their own image in their head of the kind of person that comes to mind when they read about my character's actions and words. Or maybe I'm making excuses. doesn't really matter.
>>58939946As the only isekai story I've read is Prince of Po Town, I'll suggest Prince of Po Town.
>>58938801So do they fire from a point in front of their chest or does their chest armor split open at the middle and they fire an attack out of there?
Clair... I would...
>>58939801I have zero talent and I’m working on stuff. Feel free to jump on the idea.>>58940160Ian doesnt note a lot of the differences from the games after the first 10 chapters. By the time those pass, he’s pretty used to things and hardly references the games unless absolutely needed. Borne of Caution is likely more up the anon’s alley. Although if you’re writing a SI or Isekai I’d say give it a read since it’s my gripes with standard Isekai stories and you might find some inspiration
>>58940439I feel like Clair would be fun in a romcom
>>58937730The great irony of this is Alola was the only region to not have a bicycle until Paldea.
>>58939862>Pokémon are animals at the end of the dayWrong, Pokémon are our friends
>>58939862It should vary. Something like Herdier should just be a very intelligent dog.
>>58940633
>>58940660>It should varyYeah, by fic. There is no one size fits all.
>>58939818what about stories where people and Pokémon cuddle each other?
>>58940723Your thoughts don't have the same complexity as the rest of us but we can still be friends.
>>58940723but they can learn
>>58941607What are the implications here?
>>58941731the cop standing next to the wall is a Ditto, they just have the same model
Any good journeyfics with M trainer x M pokemon?
>>58942139Red from Game of Champions is pretty gay but not for pokemon.
>>58942154Red and Blue are both straightchads who canonically have tons of (straight) sex throughout the fic though
>>58942227I haven't gotten to that part yet, all I've seen of their sexuality is Blue sending Red dick pics and Red thinking about how hot Lance is.
>>58939580Dialogue, it's more of a me problem but I don't really like the overuse of >He said>She said>X said>Y saidThought the problem comes when readers can't identify who's talking when you don't use it because the characters have the same "voice" if you get me
>>58942396You could try reformatting a little differently. If character A performs some action, like a smile or shoulder tap or something, simply append their line of dialogue immediately after that on the same line. It might feel a little weird at first but readers should intuitively get who is talking and let you shave off some of the 'he said, she said'.> Carolyn made an amused sound. "We should have gotten a can of gas."
>>58942467>first but readers should intuitively get who is talkingThat's honestly way too much faith, there's a reason on why Sanderson is the most popular fantasy writer at the moment >Fantasy isn't literatureI mean, sure but you get my point. The easier it is to follow the more readers it will have a story
>>58942139Once wrote an Entei knocking up a dude but that was a standalone.
>>58936828>What are you working on? One shots, a long fic, just drafting or have you posted anything yet?Recently found myself writing a one shot after several days of having the idea floating around my head and I currently have another one shot idea doing the same, but not sure if I will actually bother writing this one.
Will any of you be using the least-appreciated of the Legendary Beasts, Raikou?
>>58942798If I ever get around to the Johto fic bouncing around my head, yes. That's a couple years out though.
>>58942798He's actually the primary legendary of one of my big subplots. I want to play with the symbolism of the Beasts as fire, lightning, and water and how it can be interpreted as the healing of calamity, so Raikou being the herald of the coming storm gives him a lot of narrative weight.
>>58942798My inner chuuni thought of a ninja sword made with Raikou's fangs
>>58942798I was thinking of my MC killing one to craft its fangs mane and tail into useful Electric items, but I just can't justify killing such a noble pokemon in a way I find right. Zapdos however is free game. Fuck the birds.
>>58936828>What are you working on?Bros, I’m working on the first big 6v6 battle with big stakes of my WIP PoPT and the feeling’s unbelievable. Been picturing this fight and others like it for the last year and a half and it’s sinking in that I’m finally doing it. To all anons that have inspiration, that get so hyped by the ideas and epic moments in their heads and are scared to start writing, just know, the feeling of finally reaching it is fucking electric. And it’s possible to get to this point.>But anon, I’m retarded and am a shit writerThen get better by practicing, by going for it. As you write you’re going to find your strengths and your weaknesses, and you know what? Play to your strengths. Sure one aspect of your writing isn’t great, okay. But make your strengths so strong that people stop giving a fuck and read anyways. Those wonderful moments you picture in your day to day life, the ones that seems so far away but keep calling to you? It’s possible to get to them, anon. Just fucking WRITE
>>58942987>but I just can't justify killing such a noble pokemon in a way I find rightThe Pokémon world is full of retards willing to kill anything and everything just because they don't like living in a utopia, just do some cool last stand against ulltrabeats or poachers/hunters/grunts
Has anybody here used fakemon in a fic? Regional forms, or convergent, I'm interested in using one in a fic and I want to get some feedback. My idea for a Johto fic I'm working on is a Kantonian/Johtonian convergent pokemon of Sandygast/Palosand that fills the same niche, an ambush predator that primarily preys on humans and domesticated pokemon.>>58943032Good to hear you're making good progress Pofag.>>58942798Sadly no, but maybe I'll think of an idea for the Mythical Beasts. It's not like I need a particular reason for them to show up, after all. They seem mystical enough to appear where appropriate.
>>58943035Ultrabeasts and regular trainers wouldn't stand a chance against a proper legendary in my setting, but I do have a few other big bads I can throw at them. Wild that I hadn't considered this before when in hindsight it seems so obvious and completely in character for them.
>>58942987Nothing stops from having multiple Raikou in your setting
>>58943032That's awesome Poanon, those big setpiece moments are so rewarding to write, finally getting out that scene that's been playing in your head for so long. I got to hit my first one when Kuzey declared he wanted to fight for himself, and win and it was the coolest fucking rush, making something you'd been imagining for so long real on the page. I can't wait to get there and read it.>>58943060I dabbled in it by hinting at the existence of a baby/partly-formed stage of a Spiritomb, but I didn't go into great detail about what kind of Pokemon it was because the only person who knew it wasn't familiar enough with ghost Pokemon to identify it. It's also probably too big a spoiler to say which, but I've also created a Johto regional evolution for a specific Pokemon line that will play a role in my next arc.>>58943088NTA but I went with having Zapdos, Moltres and Articuno as species, with such wide territory ranges there's rarely more than one trio for hundreds of miles, while the Beasts are a unique trio created by Ho-oh.
>>58943318Sounds interesting, there a bunch of stuff I want to get too eventually as well. But for the time being I just to hope, pray, and write! But that regional evolution sounds interesting, I'm always a fan of something with a more Japanese feel. To talk about what I'm writing right now, the convergent Palossand is a Rock/Ghost type that creates roadside shrines, Jizo, and graves in isolated areas to get food in the form of offerings, and weary travelers it can prey on.
>>58943318>while the Beasts are a unique trio created by Ho-oha legend is just a legend, also gen 9 kind off retconned that with the Paradox versions and whatever this monstrosity is
>>58943900>ParadoxYes, as in paradox, they shouldn't exist. They're from futures and pasts that don't exist. Regardless of that the birds just feel a lot less like individuals compared to the beasts, but that's just the vibes I get.
>>58943900That fusion, even if it's cool, never showed up in the games and we got fuckass dinosaur ancestors instead, so it doesn't count and I consider Walking Wave, etc. as a separate thing from the Beasts. The Beasts themselves and their resurrection by Ho-oh are relevant to my fic and aren't just a maybe-fake legend.
>>58936828How do you feel about champions and gym leaders being treated as celebrities, appearing in magazines and other stuff?
>>58943953Whatever makes them happy works for me, better than having them nuke my hometown because they were bored or some shitty drama like Lance in PokéSpe who should be in jail
>>589395808 struggle most with starting to write to begin with, but after that it's mostly characterization and descriptions (environment, characters' actions and looks, etc)
>>58943953Just make sense. They're like world-class star athletes, no different from shit like Lebron or Messi on a magazine.
>>58943953if you're talking about gravure magazines, then yes I like it
>>58944012Fic of Cynthia convincing Dawn to do her first nude photoshoot where?
>>58944015That's probably a thing already https://www.fanfiction.net/s/6942662/1/Happy-Birthday-Dawn
Is it shilling if a story I want to discuss here gets updated and I mention it? Not my own story though, like someone else’s.
>>58943953well they're world-class athletics, it makes sense for them to be celebrities. Although I think it partly depends on who the current champion is. You know how much people like them and how much they seek out the limelight.>High CelebrityBlue, Lance, Cynthia, Iris, Leon>Medium CelebrityWallace, Alder, Diantha, Nemoa>Low CelebrityOak, Steven, Red, Geeta>>58944110Is it Borne of Caution? That just updated alongside Tanya the Chansey.Also everyone get's one free shill per thread.
>>58944110Just post as long as it is a fanfic
It’s the fanfic thread anon, please do. Just don’t get obnoxious about it and you should be alright.
>>58944122Ha, yeah. It’s foxfucker’s. He updated really quick this time. I’ve been mentioning his story upon updates though which is why I wondered if it was too much.
>>58944122>Oak>Low celebrityBlasphemy. The man's the Bob Ross, Steve Irwin, Keanu Reaves, and Ryan Gosling of the pokemon world.
>>58944156Oak and Red are both low-profile athletes that don't play up the charm of the sport and are all about passion for it. Real fans of Pokemon battling recognize their greatness but a casual fan probably doesn't know their name.
>>58944153Last update had that one-off ninetails lady from the anime trying to separate them right? It reminded be about how that crane who fell in love with her zookeeper. Really that was an accident in not managing the birds behavior correctly but it made me think about how wild Pokemon, and Pokemon who are less domesticated are probably more likely to fall in love with a human since a domesticated pokemon species is more likely to be dog-like or cat-like and more aware of the differences between themselves and humans.
Borne of Desire shot dead in a ditch. Really ditched SB for no reason.
>>58944194Anon... Oak is THE Pokémon Professor so he is involved beyond just battles
>>58944194No way. Casuals would worship Oak for all the things he's done and use his old status as the best trainer in the world as a trump card to instantly shut up real fans of pokemon battling who won't stop singing praises for frauds like Leon.
>>58944209But he's known for BEING the Professor, not for his battling career. It's like a kid who grew up watching the Princess Bride but never knew Andre the Giant was a wrestler.
>>58944215Yes but the more reason for him to be >>58944122 beyond high celebrity because Champions change
>>58944195How does a crane fall in love with a human?
>>58944304Like normal women would. Having their enclosure cleaned, being fed, and being the only regular presence in their confinement.
>>58944304It has to imprint on a human parent, then bird can grow up to see people as big strong things that constantly gives them food, and keeps them company, and so it decides you're its mate. Usually That sort of situation is why animals need a lot of contact with animals of the same or similar species. So although I don't read it, the idea of a pokemon falling in love with a zookeeper seems funny to me. Since out of any profession, a zookeper would be the one most likely to know what's going on and try to put a stop to it before it starts.
SI as Mohn when?
>>58944469SI as Mohn, but you're destined to be separated from your family the same way, and all you can try and do is set things up in advance to keep Lusamine from losing her mind, and your children from having their lives fucked up.
>>58944482Spacebattles would eat that shit up, what with their "I'm not a pedo" denial and love for drama.Weird they haven't done it
>>58944487Easy, cause Mohn is fucking ugly
>>58944469They look more like siblings instead of a married coupleNew headcanon: Lusamine is a generic isekai little sister who married her brother
>>58944469Young Lusamine looks so polite.
>>58944534Just go to one of the many Alolan hair salons in chapter one. Easy.
>>58944646Not workable; Lusamine finds Mohn's hair to be a charm point.
>>58944648If my beautiful wife Lusamine likes it how could I ever feel ugly?
>>58944534>>58944646>>58944648Nigga, Mohn with a beard at least in the anime looks cool as fuck and built like a one of those Hallmark movies single dad
Polling the room: what's the most embarrassing Paldean Pokemon for your MC to get dogwalked by?
>>58944676The gay duck, how is that a question?
>>58944676Fidough
>>58944676Rellor or Rabsca desu
>>58944676Floragato
>>58944735How dare you
>>58944482Sounds kino desu

>QQ account "awaiting approval by an administrator" for a week>Haven't been able to read my fox pornThis is hell
>>58944884lemme ping
>Kantonian>Johtonian>Hoennian/Hoennese>Sinnohnian>Unovan>Kalosian>Alolan>Galarian>PaldeanAre these all right?
>>58945231>every region must have its own languageThe ones that are majorly different sure but why Kanto/Johto/Hoenn/Sinnoh? They're all just japanese and aside from Hoenn they all have either proximity or historical ties together.
>>58943060Considering the pokegods play a part in PokeNormal I'd say they probably count. Do pokecryptids and pokescp count?
>>58945237He never said anything about languages, he’s just typing out demonyms
>>58945231Don't forget Orrenean, Orangeian, Sevvian, etc
>>58945237Japanese have dialects and they appear in the games too, Whitney talks in Kansai dialect to reference Goldenrod is based on Osaka
>>58945231KantoneseJohtoneseHoenneseHisuianUnovanKaloisAlolanGalarianPaldean
>>58945373>dialectIt's not much of a difference from Clay's southern speak. Japanese is nowhere near as hellish as chinese when it comes to dialects being their own language
But what language do the pokemon speak? Would a growlithe from kanto understand a growlithe from alola?These are the real questions because it looks like humanity settled on a common language at some point in the far past.
>>58944015I prefer the "forced to work on a maid cafe" plot
>>58945247Probably? But I'm 75% sure that're actually illusion pokemon made by Unown. At least some of them have to be,
>>58936828Should Pokémon have a private life? Like they leave their trainers for some hours to meet up with their other Pokémon friends
>>58945569>Like they leave their trainersProbably not while on the journey since they're always on the move. Extremely extroverted pokemon might enjoy making new friends constantly but I figure most pokemon would grow tired of the process and mostly stick with their group until they all settle down somewhere.
>>58945592yeah I was think of already settled trainers, not while in their journey
>>58944304Someone hasn't heard about the penguin waifu
I only want to write women into my fics, and that's what I've always done, and I've made plenty of money this way too. I usually do futa/female only. For Pokémon though this is sort of annoying because of gen 1 having so many men. I can't decide on who should have a dick.Leaf and manga Green/Blue both exist in anything I make, who should have a dick?
>>58945231Shouldn't it be Kantonese?
>>58945814I know you're joking but it's officially Kantonian
>>58945430Irl animals of different regions 'speak' different languages and don't recognize communication from other regions. So possibly. The again, Arceus probably never destroyed the tower of PokeBabel. Then again, there are a lot of ruined towers in pokemon. Whats the tallest ancient tower?
>>58945430It's like Tekken, they all speak their native language but can understand each other
>>58945532What about the smile arcanine?
>>58945860Nah, he's 100% real, but Buried Alive is almost certainly a Illusion Pokemon. Lonlinest/Eevee was probably a ghost like the old man, while the Bannet just sounded like a fucked up ghost type.And the Dragonite? Dynamax.
>>58945745Just genferbend every guy. Thats my fetis- solution.
Learn self-defense
>>58946295My MC would have a power suit like Emma, but with less latex because he's not gay
>>58946656Gay
>>58946656Instructions unclear, Emma is now gay.
>>58946295I wish there were more musclehead MCs, or at least MCs that jump into a fight easily
>>58946720She's already a retard that wants a loanshark as mayor or something, being gay tends to go hand in hand
>>58940559The idea of a Knonosuba-esq fic was floated a while back, I wonder if she could work as the Darkness or Megumin of the group? Maybe Whitney is a better fir for Darkness since she's famous for having a fatass pokemon and is sporty.Although Clair fits the royalty role better.
>>58946752Kid got the heart, shame he sucks at punching. Give him a stick or something
>>58946796Not just a kid, and not just a stick. Look, he is clearly the reincarnation of one of the great sage's asshairs that had gained sentience. Give him a staff!
>>58946825>literal blackfaceAsh was retired because he was too problematic
Have you guys ever made maps for your fics, even if it's not a custom region there are some pretty interesting fanmade maps for pre-existing regions out there.
>>58946756If you wanted to be lazy you could make her the awkward virgin.
>>58947068Not for a fic, though I've made a few for D&D campaigns. Mostly to demonstrate how demented the borders were for the kingdoms my murderhobos were carving out.
>>58946752I did think about in having a protagonist similar to Onizuka from GTO, maybe as a Pokemon academy teacher or gym leader
How many of your main cast's Pokemon are captured, versus befriended?
>>58947068I started making a map for a custom region just for fun once but never finished it.
>>58947136Captured? Not a single one (yet). All of them are either gifts, hatched, or befriended.
>>58947105>Clair as KazumaIf only Clairtrash rolled off the tongue better.But no, Clair is very obviously Aqua. Very full of herself because she is technically very powerful, gets mad over stupid reasons, a dramatic show off like all dragon type trainers, her ace is a water type, and she doesn't wear panties.
>>58947228Clair doesn’t wear panties? Hot diggity damn
>>58947269Oh, THAT'S why Lusamine was so upset Clair picked an outfit out for Lillie
>>58947228>>58947269Pretty sure its canon as of now.Didn't discover this until writing a battle involving it, but Whimsicott is unbelievably overpowered in my headcanon.
>>58947228>damegami>dameragon trainerclair even does the shrine maiden purification stuff in the anime
>>58947289>Didn't discover this until writing a battle involving it, but Whimsicott is unbelievably overpowered in my headcanon.How so?
>>58945151You're tickling my balls here man
>>58947462Prankster, Stun Spore, Leech Seed, then it basically gets to ignore the laws of physics as it flies around the battlefield. Literally had to nerf it by not letting it have Substitute or Tailwind like I'd initially intended.
>>58947531>The humble Heatwave introduces itselfOr field a flyer with Aerial Ace. Maybe a grass type with Ingrain to outlast it.
>MC activates his special new power-up>Gets overwhelmed because he's never trained with it and can't get it to work >Pivots into revealing the secret supermove he and his partner learned>It's too much strain and knocks the partner out from the effort I think PoPT is a bad influence on me.
>>58946752Spice and Fox protagonist is both.
>>58947068yeah but its not for pokemans and I never made it fancyits also not public, yet, maybe never
>>58947884He's also a cuck.
>>58947900Every timeReal cuck?
>>58947995His Fennekin gets kidnapped and the newest chapter has her in a cage with the villainous team talking about how they're going to rape her.
>>58948036Okay WTF? That's quite the ESCALATION
>>58947531Ah yes, the classic SubSeed. Always fun to see it come back. I used to love abusing it with Breloom.
>>58948036That's like saying Mario is a cuck because Bowser kidnaps Peach. He's a cuck for other reasons, but still
>>58948178If not having your waifu about to be drugged and raped isn't cuck behavior I don't know what is. Either way the author chose to wrote that happening so clearly he's getting off on the idea.But I'm curious if you don't believe that's cuckoldry then what is?
>>58948192But she's not even his waifu?
>>58948178This whole website is schizo and hypervigilant about NTR. I used to think it was just /vt/.
>>58948203The fic is named "Spice and Fox" not to mention she's in love with him, she fills the daughter/wife role, and the author has said there's going to be eventual pokephilia >>57619230
>>58948233Oh, so like with Holo who was raped by that alpha iirc
>a loan shark as mayor or somethingKuzey anon, your Emma isn't that stupid, right?>B-but Corbeau is actually a good guy
If my MC gets rejected after confessing his love, is he also a cuck?
>>58948396Unironically less corrupt and would be a better government official than we have in real life, cope and seethe.
>>58948449The only way for your MC to save face after a failed confession is to ensure that that success never goes to another. He must kill them.Every success that is not your own is an instance of you being cucked by success going to another. This is why it is not enough that you succeed, others must fail.
>>58948449Of course. You, the author, are also a cuck by proxy for writing such a thing.
>>58948396>Kuzey anon, your Emma isn't that stupid, right?My Emma probably has a healthy distaste for the guy considering his idolization of Lysandre, but at the same time she'd likely hold herself back from being too harsh on him since she's got some complicated feelings of gratitude for Xerosic, herself. She'd know what it's like to remember the kindness someone who's otherwise "evil" showed you when you needed it.She'd definitely like him more than Jacinthe, though; what gets under her skin the most is well-off people who are cruel, even though they've lost the imperative of survival as an excuse. A hoodlum doing something shady to get by or help someone else who needs it, she can forgive. Somebody rich taking from people who have less? She wants you fucking dead.Of course the Corbeau in her world is probably slightly different from Z-A's, considering this world lacks an L serving as Zygarde's aide.
>>58948231Did you never post on /v/? It’s very prolific.
>>58948498Haven't read your story, will you touch the Silver the cuck that lost his dad to some midget kalosian faggot? because everytime I hear that it makes me laugh
>>58948713Probably won't, but more because I outlined the story well before Z-A was even announced. Silver has a role to play in it, but Corbeau kind of doesn't as a consequence of that fact. Due to some things that are a spoiler to explain, it's impossible for my story to have had a 1:1 recreation of Z-A, though I decided a version of it took place ~4 years before this story starts.
>>58948713It's even funnier once you realized both Lysander and Giovanni took care of Corbeau. Corbeau even talks in a Johtonian accent in a thick japanese text. What sort of monster was orphan Corbeau? Did Ghetsis, Lusamine, Monh, and Guzma also show up in Kalos to help him out? What is this OC ass backstory? He's practically the adopted son of a Giovanni/Lysandre pairing.
>>58948498
>>58948192Have you seriously never heard of a damsel in distress? For real, cuck shit is if she wants to fuck somebody other than him. If she's literally being held against her will then even if it is a sexy thing its an Impreril fetish until the deed is actually done.
>>58948742Well the author did cuck out of the mc adding another loli, besides Fennekin/Braxien to his potential harem so I won't discount him walking it back at the last minute.
>>58947806Ian has no flyers and he doesn’t have access to Sawsbuck There’s a cool workaround that ends up barely making it tho.>>58947834>Not succeeding the first timeIt’s working! Real talk though, when the characters eventually do succeed it should make the moment that much sweeter.>>58948079It’s a shame Ian isn’t powerful enough to overcome that shit at this point. SubSeed will get it’s fucking revenge on him sometime in the future though.
>>58946656in my fic, Silph Company developed a Power Glove that gives trainers strength and perfect Pokeball captures, the catch is that it's useless and hard to use like the real glove
>>58936828How do you think the education system works?In my settings, kids can enter the gym circuit after finishing elementary school or keep with their studies.After their journey is over they can continue middle school or go to a specialized trainer academy.
>>58936828Sold my soul and started to write a Highschool DxD fic exploring religion and the Church.
>>58949483That's brave, everyone knows only devils matter in that series with heaven being the weakest that beyond a few characters they're pathetic outside of making sure Irina can have sex with Issei in the future to not lose her angel powers
It took me a while but I did it, here's another aurafag skill if you're into that shit.
>>58949618That Lucario is DODGING IT without a trainer command??!! Naruhodo...so this is the power of "aura"...
>>58949552When was the last time the super devils got to do anything cool in a fic that wasn't just sit around a table and pretend to aura farm?
Canonically speaking is Arceus stated to be the Father of creation, or is there a possibility that she's a Mother?
>>58949716iirc, in the teraleak, there was a folktale story where Arceus turns into a woman and gets impregnated by a human
>>58949698Most DxD fanfics never get that far, let alone Rizevim and to be fair they miss nothing because after every "important" plot you get some shitty tournament arc
any fic where MC is a corporate slave working in a black company?
>>58949770The Larry obssession is already over anon,
>>58949780Corbeau trend is still going in ao3, I'm sure you can make it work
>>58949770>>58949780We need an isekai where an overworked corporate slave reincarnates into the pokemon world with cheat powers, only to continue to be a corporate slave there. Then they end up working for the Paldean League where they compete with Larry for who can be THE STRONGEST corporate slave with Geeta more than happy to exploit them both
>>58949806Instead of corporate slavery which I don't think most people experience in the west since work culture is so much different, could have a wage slave who gets isekai'd via some crackhead crashing a car through the drive through window and ends up working at the Pokemon center or pokemart. He gets transfered often to different branches in the region and always ends up meeting the game protagonist in each town so it's like he's one of those NPCs that are in every shop. They think it's some clan of lookalikes like the Joy's and Jenny's but it's really just one dude getting yanked around everywhere by mismanagement.

Emma and Juliana return to Ferris Chateau bearing gifts, but things are certainly not how they expected to find them in the wreckage of Absol and Shugorei's rampages...
