A thread for the creation and discussion of fan fiction and other fanworks - anything that involves a story and/or reading. What've you been reading? What've you been writing? What would you like to see more of?>Thread question:What might happen if two random characters or one and your fic's mc interact?https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Special:RandomInCategory/Animation_characters>Previous thread:>>59045617
>>59063518What the fuck is this thing?Okay, he is a ninja with an Eccelgor. Tobio has a policy to not mess with ninja, and Wol and co would probably be pretty curious about him. Especially Jane who would want him to teach her ninjitsu.
>>59063518So, Rhys and a... manager from the Horizons anime? So he's 16 right years before GSC, and I don't know much about horizons but I'll assume it takes place at the same time of S&V, i.e some 11+ years after RGBY, meaning he'd be about 30~So I looked at the pages for Exceed and the Explorers, and considering where Rhys would be at that point in his life I think they'd approach him through the manager since they start the Strong Sphere(?) launch in Johto.I imagine he'd be pretty suspicious due of the Strong Sphere's due to the region's history of dealing with similar black market products like Dark Balls, and he eventually would become an enemy of Exceed and the Explorers. For the lady herself, I think they'd get along fine, he would probably be polite and find Coral and the other one funny.Obligatory shilling since I finished posting the first three chapters: https://archiveofourown.org/works/81146136
>>59063518https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Courtney>CourtneyKuzey would probably be traumatized having to go through fighting her, now that I'm thinking about it. She's superficially similar to Herri in her behavior, but adapts crazed obsessive yandere tendencies if she becomes intrigued in you, like Seringue. If the wires between his feelings on those two girls got crossed in his head, it might do irreparable damage to his preferences...
>>59063518what is your opinion in trainers being spokespersons and sellouts for easy money?
>>59063734I'm surprised the Nihiliego toxin and Seringue didn't already do that.
>>59063734Goddammit she even got lilac hair wtf!
>>59063780Good question. But I'm too tired to explore the idea too much right now. I remember sponsors being a thing in a cyberpunk pokemon setting I read aboht in a table top rpg.
>>59063780I consider it canon to Galar that pro trainers court and receive sponsorships to get their income. I imagine it as less common in regions where gym challenges aren't so commodified, but I do want to have one character be something of a Booster Gold-type sellout that's become a ruthless corporate moneymaker after becoming champion.
>>59063518>https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Special:RandomInCategory/Animation_charactersThis isn't very random, I just got Emma three times and once twice in a row. Feels weighted towards Horizon characters.
>>59063518Tell me writefaggots, is your MC a fucking HERO?
Shilling again, old thread was almost dead. Chapter 20 of Spice and Fox is out. Next one at the end of the month.https://archiveofourown.org/works/21307454/chapters/210738291Also>>59063518>GordieI imagine Will would have no idea who the hell he is, but compliment the guy's sunglasses and fit, and then backtrack and try and smooth things over when he realizes that the guy is a well known gym leader / quasi-champion material. If given the time of day he'd probably ask general trainer questions, maybe if there's anything different with raising Rock types, etc. etc.
>>59064395>Fat>Sunglasses>HandsomeI'm afraid Will won't be able to beat him, NTRmen are his greatest weakness.
>>59063780Someone as strong as Leon shouldn't need to whore himself out to sponsors, but he's still a walking billboard. Why did he do it?
>>59064290My MC steals cable TV
>>59064512>Someone as strong as Leonthat's the catch, he's not strong. He's a League plant posed as the strongest trainer for marketing purposes, at least in my headcanon
>>59064499"Are you sure, Braixen?" Will asks, swallowing reflexively. "I don't want us to regret this, after."Braixen looks away for a moment, hesitating. The fox is dwarfed in the padded motel chair, practically enveloped by it, the furniture only emphasizing how young and out of place she is. Little fuzzy feet aren't even close to reaching the floor. Her little yellow eyes slowly fall to the cheap carpet and stay glued there.The fox doesn't have it in her to look at Will. Instead she manages a small, reluctant nod."Okay, kid," Gordie says. "Get on the bed and assume the position."
>>59064290Not yet. But he will be! And he will not be recognized for it by society! In fact he will be you almost got me to and spoiler the ending:D
>>59064551>Will is a manwhore>Braxien is a cuckHow will Cuck and Fox bros ever recover?
>>59064290Yes, he's the brave hero who's going to destroy the world and save everyone.
>>59064290Heroes get BETRAYED, villains are...respected...
>>59064290My MC evades taxes
how I feel after writing using japanese names and honorifics
>>59064290It took a while but he is one now.>>59063518>MarlonIan would actually be really chill with him when Po Town’s not at war with a faction.
>>59063518>Jack Walker from Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the SeaDon't know anything about the movie other than what Jack's Bulbapedia page says and Hell no I'm not reading that plot summary.In general Vahnzimmig would be unhelpful to both Jack and the movie (probably.)Maybe Jack could adopt/take Vahnz in as a partner Pokémon? And perhaps get rid of his fear of water (yet to actually implement this.)>>59064290Lol, lmao even.
>>59064290kind off, he's the king of the assholes
>>59064290He is not a hero. But even though he's a coward, he will try anyway. And I believe that is a much more interesting kind of person.
>>59064659Kuzey...
>>59064558Hokage and King of the Pirates?
>>59064290She's is.She'll also become a Savior and actual literal Queen.
>>59064290No, but he isn't not a hero either. If you asked him the question he wouldn't understand.
>>59064290Yes, because my conscience willed it. He is nice and caring for it is already a cold world out there.
>>59064519It's hard to fake an unbeatable record with 0 losses
>>59064812All staged battles
>>59064812Not when you control who can and can't participate in your league.
>>59064290Yes, I like Jedi and DnD rangers and he fits both
>>59064843>>59064856Would be amusing to know what his peers really thought of a weakling they're obligated to pretend is the greatest. Are they all okay with it or is Rose forcing them to play along? Do the other Champions know/are they able to suss it out from their interactions with him? Is Rose paying all of them too?
>>59064290Nah but he'll do in a pinch
>>59064290He is THE hero.
>>59064974>weakling they're obligated to pretend is the greatestDepends. What if Leon is a league experiment to see if the power of friendship and belief could be artificially cultivated? At a certain point of faking it it could've become real. Of course it'll all come crumbling down the moment another champion takes off the kiddy gloves and makes him eat his first loss, but until then he might genuinely have the power of a low-tier champion thanks to his delusion-based power of belief and friendship.
>>59065012>Leon and his Charizard live a Bolt (2008) life where everyone around him including the rest of his Pokémon team are all paid actors
>>59065012Even stronger than that, Leon has shonen protagonist levels of dumbassery. He's horny for battle (He created the battle tower after his loss), gets lost on straight paths, and is dense enough to never notice the feelings of his redheaded bisexual childhood friend OR that his super suspicious boss is anything other than completely trustworthy.Leon has MC plot armor, which was stripped of him the moment a new MC arrived in Galar.
>>59063518Latias is so beautiful in every form she takes...
>>59065035>Leon literally has a Shonen PhysiqueBut without the MC upbringing of being faced with hardship and thrust into plot events. Could Rose's grooming and coddling of Leon have crippled his growth? Would Leon have actually won against Eternatus if left to his own devices from the beginning? How many fortuitous encounters were missed because one of his helpers steered him back on track right before his lack of direction stumbled him upon them?Almost makes me consider writing a story with an isekaijin abducting young Leon and being put through shonen hell because of it.
>>59065062Leon was BETRAYED by the narrative, raised to be the perfect stepping stone for the player.
>TRAPPED and BETRAYED is a lost art now...Either the new anime is really something plot wise and with a lot of edge or nobody cares about it.You would expect a few BETRAYED Liko by now because even now nobody mentions the other kid
>>59065356The fascinating thing about Horizons is that it's falling for the Gacha MC Problem, where the creators are only interested in shilling the male MC, but literally the entire audience either doesn't give a shit about him or actually hates him, and the female MC is the one they want them to actually be focusing on.
Remember kids, bad people aren't real in Pokémon and who knows, if you're lucky enough you might even get a cover legendary by saying sorry or losing your memories or something, they will also elect you as a mayor or something because LOANSHARKS GOOD And Silver got cucked as a son by some midget kalosian faggot I guess
I'm back from my shoulder injury /vp/I've returned to shill To Live is to Dreamalso have a good non-pokemon fc>Spirits in ArmsUS three-letter spook tasked with suppressing the supernatural gets an impromptu "vacation" to Japanhttps://www.honeyfeed.fm/chapters/180697
>>59065356betrayal fics will have their resurgence
>>59065676Glad you're doing better anon!
>>59065656erm, people can change
>>59065656If Courbeau was in IMO he would have beaten Fablegen all on his own. More connected and faster than the police he would have arrested the three L's they second they invaded the club, then he would have megaevolved his Scolipede and beaten Chien-pao and Celot.
>In one of the Ranger games, Mewtwo just exists in an Ancient Ruin of at least a thousand years agoI mean I already justified Genesect, albeit as a fully mechanical creation in my setting rather than a Cyborg. Does this justify Mewtwo for Fantasy/Old timey settings? Could even Muk & Grimer be justified?
>>59066426Easy, Mewtwo was made by an ancient civilization that wiped itself out. Tons of fantasy settings have technologically advanced pasts, sometimes seemingly for no reason there's just mechs.
>>59066426Yeah, alchemists bro. In most settings they're basically scientists and homunculus have been a thing since forever in greek myths too
>>59066426The third one right?
This is your new husband and your new wife. Say something nice about them.
>>59066457yea mewtwo was the final boss
>>59066426Dude I love the Ranger games, they're comfy as hell man.
>>59066426Actually made a theory last thread about this.>Random on the spot theory. Mewtwo is actually a Phione style legendary child species of Mew that actually occurred in nature once upon a time. Maybe like the Cain and Abel to Mew's Eve. They had regular lifespans and eventually evolved to become every other species of pokemon. This would explain how there are somehow naturally occurring phenomena associated with Mewtwo, and potentially why there are somehow more than one beyond the possibility of other clones being made.
>>59066496Or maybe multiverse conqueror Giovanni did fuck around more than we know
>>59066307Who are you kidding, he would’ve tried debt trapping Emma, or he would’ve tried to get Aunt Vi, who simply beat the shit out of him and imprisoned him in a secret room in the chateau. When she’s not beating the shit out of him, she uses him as a slave to sate her desires before tossing him aside to be used again.If Corbeau is never mentioned in IMO, im going to assume this is canon btw.
>>59066496>>59066536What if Mewtwo's creation some kind of forgotten or ancient project and other individuals (mainly with Fuji's research) managed to rediscover it in modern times? Maybe that way the could have known about Mew's abilities considering how rare it is in the first place.
>>59066307>>59066640Still deciding what to do with the Z-A cast, tbdesu. They might or might not come up the next time they return to Lumiose, but that is a very funny alternative if I can't come up with something better. Though VI might prefer a big, sweet himbo like Ivor she doesn't have to worry about snapping in half.>>59066481There was a time I had Carmine as Juliana's other wife before I decided that was probably over the top.
>>59066693>CarmineNot far enough!
>>59066481I honestly don’t care about any of the gen 9 waifus at all. Normally at least one catches my eye, but not this time.
>>59066640And he would have succeed, Emma is no genius, especially in IMO.
>>59066693Why not give Florian more bitches instead of Juliana?
>>59066693>Vi killed Corbeau and trap Ivor in her rape basement.Well at least it's good to know what happened to them. Other than them I don't think the rest of the cast, except maybe Jacinthe would come up. The cast of Hotel MZ is kind of irrelevant only granted importance by AZ who's presumably dead alongside Lysandre in IMO. While Taunie and Urbain are stupdier than Emma and the rest of the cast of IMO to such an extent I couldn't ever seem them winning, while the protag is a non-character and I don't have faith that you won't make Taune gat of the fem-MC instead of a tard that has to be wrangled by the male MC. Non romantic wrangling she legit needs a handler and I think in absences of the games plot the MC would fill that role eventually.If AZ's Floette is still around she's probably with the champion.While everyone else seems to have other stuff going on except for maybe for Korrina who seems like she would get involved.
>>59066426He simply traveled through time
>>59066426>Does this justify Mewtwo for Fantasy/Old timey settings?The existence of the multiverse, spacetime distortions, the Ultra Dimension, the Dream Dimension, Hoopa's bullshit, Jirachi's bullshit, and Arceus' bullshit, means you can justify virtually anything.
>>59066760>Prevented Seringue from escaping unnoticedShe's trying her best!>>59066775Florian already has a wife: the Nemona in his dimension.>>59066777I did end up deciding that SOME version of Z-A's events ended up happening about four years before IMO takes place. So AZ and Team MZ had their adventures and saved the city. Though of course that begs the question, if Lysandre wasn't around to be a servant of Zygarde, who took his place?
>>59066805Why is that a spoiler?
>>59066805>if Lysandre wasn't around to be a servant of Zygarde, who took his place?Is it even necessary for someone to take his place? Zygarde could've approached you on its own at any time, it didn't need to pardon a criminal who attempted genocide on the lower class. To my memory there's nothing Lysandre knows that AZ doesn't also.
>>59066775He's a yurifag>>59066805Just have Zygarde talk, he's a humanoid legendary no one will question it.
>>59064290>is your MC a fucking HERO? My MC is a criminal bruh
>>59066806Because it's technically a spoiler in the future.>>59066810Maybe, but I still have some ideas I think could be fun with the role.>>59066817>He's a yurifagOh I'm much worse than that.
>>59066810Bro doesn't know that L was collecting the cells so that Zygarde could go full power.
>>59066836You're trans?
>>59066805>Florian already has a wifeI said "more bitches", it's not mutually exclusive.
>>59066841Worse still.>>59066844I've already got one polycule among the game protags, it felt excessive to have another.
>>59066851Well the only thing worse than being trans is being a pedophile so i don't know what you're claiming here.
>>59066854IMOfag is a woman, that's what she's saying.Of course, being a yurifag also makes her a pedo so...
>>59066857Being a woman isn't worse than being trans and women don't use the internet so it can't be that.
>>59066839Even if Cell Zygarde struggles to reunite without external assistance, that should stop mattering once Zygarde gets the dog form. There's no way ol one eye is better at tracking down the rest
>>59066841He said worse not exactly like
>>59066861Everyone and their mom knows that writing fanfiction is the exception to that rule...
>>59066851>worse than transA woman!?
>>59066870in the anime, Zygarde cells just fly at high speed toward the core, just saying
>>59066885Yeah, but everyone knows lesbians only enter into polycules to get dick so he can't be a lesbian woman either.
>>59066890shit like this is exactly why i doubt there are ONLY 100 cells. 100 is a small ass number for a being that spreads itself throughout the WORLD.
>>59066900Game Zygarde doesn't spread throughout the whole world.
>>59066896But she's not in the polycule, she's shipping it, and everyone knows women love to ship gay men
>>59066915True form Zygarde is planetary.
>>59064843>>59064856There's a reason why even in the anime they fed Lance and Diantha to him instead of Cynthia or Steven. I'm not counting Alan because that's too much Kalos League damage control cope to fairly judge in matters of popularity and powerlevels.Despite all, stuff like that shows they have a smidgen of self-awareness going on which makes it all the more baffling that to this day they keep shoving Leon down people's throats as it is rather than realize the concept didn't stick the landing and start cutting their loses.At this point I'm just convinced he's Ohmori self-insert. Maybe the shilling of him will finally stop after Gen 10 if the stuff about him getting kicked out like it happened to Masuda is actually legit.
Well tell me ALL about yourselves writefags. ABSOLUTE lies only!
>>59067073I'm a respectable member of society
>>59067073I killed fitty men.
>>59067073There's no fetish material that I like in my works.
>>59066481Why are my wife’s boobs so much smaller than my husband’s?
How do you think the move Foul Play works?It says it uses the target's power against them, but how is that visualized? The games just have it as a regular attack, but is it more of a "stop hitting yourself" thing or does the user somehow steal their opponent's power for this one attack?
>>59067137Aikido style martial arts?
>>59067073I am happy.
>>59067073I'm not a schizo.
>>59067137>How do you think the move Foul Play works?Like this.
>>59067175>legs2Really not looking forward to Legs3
>>59067073I'm a /pol/fag
>>59067137A crafty series of movements that make the opponent accidentally hit themselves, OR a martial arts technique that allows you to subdue someone leagues stronger than you.
>>59067158>>59067215So more like using the opponent's weight against them?That wouldn't work on smaller, but stronger targets though.I'm trying to think of a visual difference in how the move would look when used against a pokemon before and after the target uses Belly Drum, but the opponent is smaller than the user.
>>59066693>Won't snap in halfBut isn't that the appeal of Vi?>>59067137The idea in my head is it's like a one turn Psych Up. It looks really cool in my head when Grimmsnarl uses it.
>>59063518What is a plot that should be in every fic? For me, it's the onsen chapter
>>59067073I have never jerked it to the thought of two of my characters having sex
>>59067294>But isn't that the appeal of Vi?For you, maybe. Aftercare for a cute little buttercup is nice and all, but they'll have to survive her to get there.
>>59067073I'm not good at lying.
>>59067307baseball chapterits fucking japan they're nuts for baseball, and most pokecharacters are CHILDRENDO ITDO IT NOW
>>59067137What about Perish Song? How is a wild Pokemon supposed to prevent that?
>>59066801>means you can justify virtually anything.Not all tho
>>59067490You can just run away from that. I think Perish Song is more like the user sings the song and somehow the song keeps going (like it echos around). If you hear the song from start to finish, then you get knocked out. It doesn't work if you missed any of the notes.
>>59067490The way I used it, the Pokemon has to lock eye contact with you and have your focus, at which point you're susceptible to the song and can't look away, causing you to fall unconscious. It's like a form of hypnosis trapping you into hearing the song.
>>59067137Birds just have an affinity for copy abilities, like Mirror Move.
>>59067584>said by a dude that looks like the virgin vs chad memeWhy are we treating a poke'doomer like a credible source?
