>>59092237Made a rentry of the monotype Isekai from the previous thread, with some adjustments: https://rentry.co/PokemonIsekaiMono
>>59092248Cheat: Supernatural VehicleAura Type: DragonStarting Pokémon: Deino
>>59092237Bro the Demifiend vs an Umbreon is diabolical. Also WHAT is he doing in that tube?
>>59092243I'm loving the speculation, actually. I'd probably ask to put it in spoilers for anons who don't want to see it laid out for them, but I'm loving seeing what people suss out, right and wrong.
>>59092237What legendary or mythical would your MC have if you were forced to give them one?
>>59092335Mew Disguised as a random Pokémon, every time you let them out of their ball
>>59092335Celebi.
>>59092335I don't know a lot about the terra turtle, but it fits one MC pretty well.A different fic, Darkrai.For another, Mewthree.
>>59092335What was their crime and how sorry were they?
>>59092386Illegally carrying a fire arm, a little bit.
>>59092248Mud hair man hereI got a sassy clobbopuss
>>59092335Celebi, it's cute.
>>59092248Normal world brancher here:Got Pidgey.
>>59092490Nature: QuirkyGender: Female
>>59092335Already has two Legendaries. One from the start of the journey.. One at the end of the journey.If I had to give a Mythical, however, either Deoxys or Diancie would be thematically appropriate. Maaaaaybe Marshadow if I stretch it based on stuff from the kimi ni kimeta movie.
AI talk.Don't use ChatGPT for research to try to come up or plays around with with ideas for characters. Stick to Claude for that. A businessman and scientist combined have more charisma than the boring-ass overly technical dry slop ChatGPT shits. No fucking wonder they're the AI thing that's losing the most money. I've eaten dog chow that in comparison to ChatGPT melts in your mouth. That's how fucking dry ChatGPT is.
>>59092570Claude has always been my go-to. Altman can suck my cock.
>>59092095You don't need to be a Psychic type to use Psychic moves just like you don't need to be a Fighting type to use Fighting moves. Then there's also Telepathy, which is a "Psychic" ability that non-psychic Pokemon have.So, humans can be whatever honestly.Me, I made them Typeless but with the possibility of being born with/acquiring a Type. They have an inclination towards Fighting/Psychic because their ancient ancestors used to be that dual Type, but they can still be anything.
>>59092570>>59092590Is Claude free?
>>59092634I think he's still in Rock Tunnel
>>59092648It's a shame, I think the wild pokemon got to him.
>>59092237How do Personas stack against fully evolved pokemon? Are they even real or do they only manifest in a dream world or something, my entire experience with that franchise is cultural osmosis and playing the beginning of 5
>>59092736The only thing I know is that P5fags were going around saying that their verse was the strongest and above SMT, while SMTfags were telling them to shut the fuck up because they can only fight in the dream world and that Fatefags were less annoying than themBUT Pokémon should be weaker if we take every persona real life lore
>>59092764Fatefags at least do watch/read/play their things unlike P5fags.
Mieru stop arguing on Twitter about fucking Chainsawman and get to writing why the fuck are you appearing on my For You for this shit.
>>59092782No one here is named that.
>>59092248Media man here. Since the downside of the aura has been scrapped I might as well roll for the bonus. And cool, it looks like I'm rolling Fight->one pixel into Fairy and get a quiet female Swirlix
>>59092782That brings the question, is it wrong to use canon main characters in a fanfics to have what you wanted or should fanfics only do OCs, secundary characters and Self-insert stuff?
>>59092570Why were you eating dog chow?
>>59092736Persona are just like pokemon in that Jack Frost and Pikachu are not in the same weight class as Thor and Dialga.
>>59092829Spoilers, but I plan on having a major character from the anime show up in PokeNormal. He is kind of a big deal.Oh, I remembered that another guy actually shows up before him that kind of undercuts his appearance.
>>59092840Chase and trace?
>>59092829Instructions unclear, made one of the game protags the doting adoptive big sister of my MC and canonized my favorite ship for them, then did the same for a popular side character.
>>59092829If writing your thinly veiled ocsi and your waifu in love is wrong then I don't want to be right.
What's the appeal of sidestories? And do you writefags have any?
>>59092915I want to be able to write the characters in situations disconnected from the current plot and yes, but smut only.
>>59092856Anime. Chase and Trace don't show up in the anime as far as I know.
>>59092929>AnimeHuh? What is that word, I don't know what it means.
>>59092940Excuse me?
>>59092989Isn't amie that mini game from gen 6/Kalos? That the cloests word I can think of to 'anime' whatever that is.
>>59092994The cartoon. Anime means Japanese cartoon.
>>59093007There's a pokemon cartoon?
>>59093009I don't have the reaction images for this right now.
>>59093016Either way it sounds kind of fake, I'll believe it when I see it.
>>59093019There, Rayquaza is FRAUD btw
>>59093028>There, Rayquaza is FRAUD btwHe says, not posting a picture.
>>59093028All legendaries are frauds, a single master ball defeats them all.Except Terapagos, the one and only true GOD
>>Thread question:>What's a crossover matchup you want to see done?Rance.>>59092248>Neon Detection>Dragon>female Impish DeinoEh, I'll figure something out.>>59092335I already gave my MC Magearna (he built it himself because it is his bloodline's rite of passage, his dad has one too, as would his grandpa, forefathers and fivefathers if we ever see them) but if I were to start a fic right now, I would pick Cosmog or Meltan. If the conditions were shifted to say that they must get it eventually no matter what, a Carbink that one bonds with that eventually becomes Diancie.
>>59093028Zygarde is NEVER going to let Fugg live that down
>>59093092did zygarde not get tamed by bonnie?
>>59093085>>What's a crossover matchup you want to see done?>Rance.What would his Pokémon team will be and will it involve Prismarine?
>>59092915I have a cool idea, it fits the characters but i don't want or can't fit it into the main story.It cam be for various reasons, for example:>keeping porn out of the main story>it being in the story ruins it>might just ruin the pace of the story>different kink from what you wrote so far (keeping gay shit out of straight porn)
>>59092335Pheromosa, Xuritree, or Deoxys pre evolutions because they're prevalent but uncommon mons on the space colony.
>>59093028That's because this one is black
>>59092570Even though I already answer my own questions half way into each prompt, I will rep my boy Claude because he's a fucking hero. Rest in peace, my boy...
>>59093241He killed a man in cold blood for her
>>59093243Chaos gets reimagined as Chien-Pao (considered regional Honedge?)ArbolivaMalamarKingambitSpiritomb (all souls are female)
>>59093258I will add on that the Deoxys will all be female and have thick thighs and big hips because they will reproduce like xenomorphs complete with chestbursting (viral lysis) and xenomorphs have fat fucking asses and nice legs.
>>59093297>chestburstingSo mpreg or does her chest burst instead?
>>59093241Yeah, because she gave him loving unconditional care and protection and love while it was at its weakest.Eureka did more to earn Puni-chan's loyalty than all of Shitrizons cast, and Go for that matter, did combined to earn their legendaries.
>>59092915I see it as just a bonus to scroll through after reading the main story.It annoys me how QQ still doesn't have the same flexible watch system as SB where I can filter out messages from OP and if they got threadmarked as side story or informational etc. No, I don't want to be notified of every message on a thread. Don't they use the same template?
>>59092248>https://powerlisting.fandom.com/wiki/Candy_Weaponry>Rock Aura >Male Naive Amaura starterI cosplay as Willy Wonka and use my (planetary btw) candy generation cheat along with my rock aura to become a wandering candy vendor that creates dazzling candy palaces and marvels wherever he goes, riding atop my trusty Aurorus that helps me make ice cream. I eventually become of a trainer of note as I enter and win various tournaments under the stage name "Candyman", playing up a goofy and eccentric persona for the camera.
>>59092237>What's a crossover matchup you want to see done?Taimanin
>>59093378Teaching him Magnet Rise I assume?
>>59093475That's genius, although I wouldn't necessarily get an aura boost from it. Maybe paired with clouds of aura boosted sandstorm or floating ancient power floating pebbles
>>59093378This guy gets free advertising for his candy.
>>59093399does it involve rape?
>>59093653no, I don't like used goods
>>59093687then make them chaste? hymen break to corruption pipeline is the way to go.
>>59092265>Also WHAT is he doing in that tube?He's still technically a demon
>>59093712The Hitoshura is a demon in the same way that Ultra Necrozma is a pokemon. Hell, in some version of Nocturne I'm pretty sure that Raidou becomes HIS summon. But I guess its not unreasonable for the Hitoshura to decide to repay the favor somehow despite them living in completely different eras. Seriously though, this image is kind of funny. It's like if a World War 2 soldier suddenly summoned a modern day Navy Seal to kick a child and their dog's ass.
I like the idea of some kind of Pokemon x SMT crossover, however it could work, but then I realized it'll involve a lot of slicing and dicing and shooting pokemon
>>59093829And?
>>59093829What's stopping you from leaning on the Yokai/monster aspect and having pokemon not actually die when they're "killed"?
>>59093860Yeah, this.It's surprisingly translatable and compatible when you think about it. You could even try to be fancy and mix-up Mystery Dungeon to it. Mystery Dungeon World is now Makai/Expanse/Sea of Souls/etc.
>>59093829They shrink at 1 HP so they don't die
>>59093329I was going to highlight the creepiness of Deoxys with the host bursting and the weirdness of the setting with the host surviving, but having Deoxys burst open is a pretty funny image too. Hadn't thought of that, so thanks.
>>59093829I'm already using swords and if you don't want edgy cutting gore just have them either take the hit like the swords are bats or have them have a visual healing factor. Same with guns.
>>59093829>it'll involve a lot of slicing and dicing and shooting pokemonAs long as this https://www.serebii.net/games/slicing.shtmlAnd pic related are a thing I wouldn't worry, Pokémon are tanky as fuck so unless you plan to make every human fighter a top tier one piece or Fate swordsman that can cut through mountains it'll be fine
Pokopia Newtypes
>>59092287I think Pofag was the one to mention Kizey possibly being a Hugo clone but he gave up on the idea when he realized Hugo was Kizey uncles.I think he was being premature, real life clones in essence still need a womb. So what I'm saying is that Hugo being Kuzey's birth uncle doesn't stop Kuzey from being his clone as Kuzey's mom could have impregnated herself with a clone of Hugo.
>>59094092With Rotom Mechaand Genesect MechaPorygon line MechaWhat about Revaroom?
>>59094092Shiny Genesect are three times faster.
>>59093033Our HEROES Terapagos and.. Wishcash?
>>59092335I love Kyurem.
>Had an scene with one of my characters acquiring a Rotom and how rare it used to be>Suddenly remembered how common mobile Rotom phones are nowadays>Fucking everyone has a Rotom nowadays.No seriously was that ever addressed? I don't remember if they ever acknowledge Rotom of being legendary back in Gen 4 days but it wasn't apparently somewhat rare back then?
>>59092335If I give a protagonist a legend/myth it will be a monkey's paw situation. >ultimate gaslighter celebi that aggressively rewrites the MC's past for extremely petty reasons>hardcore larper mew who will gleefully spend the MC's entire mortal lifespan as a single jobber shitmon>leech jirachi that only has one wish left and won't use it because it wants to stay awake and catch up on thousands of years of missed media before humanity self destructs during its next nap>yveltal that will gladly fight anything pointed at but will only Power Word Kill
>>59094900Rotom is shoehorned in Winds & Waves too they are more common than Rattata
>>59094902Everything except Yvetal is fucking annoying, I hope it kills them.
>>59094900Thats a plot point in my fic
>>59094902A cuddly Darkrai
>>59094900Honestly, to me Porygon make more sense to have become ubiquitous and I have no idea how one would go about mass producing ghosts.Rotom was just picked because it was already popular, just don't bring it up unless it's important and people will take the Rotom phones at face value.
>>59094900shillers
>>59092237I'd be interested in a TWEWY crossover, as in a Reaper's Game set in a pokemon city. Reapers battling with noise pokemon would be cool. The Reaper's Game also gives a good framework for a dramatic story that forces character development while also limiting the scope of the story to a week. I'd probably try to write it if I thought I could do it justice.
>>59095023Not that anon, but I was already planning a Rotom revolution after Porygon helps jailbreak a phone.The Rotoms are basically Odin's ravens in this situation, "Good little phones, good little spies."
>>59095106Reminds me of Pokenormal.
>>59095023Yeah they already had Porygon phones in Masters Ex, but for some reason they decided to just bring the Rotom phones instead from Gen 8 onwards.
>>59095023One of my characters will eventually be getting a Porygon they find in a prototype Poryphone that was meant as an early competitor in the market, but lacked the memory to keep up with Rotomphones in the long run.
>>59095023The difference is that Porygon are AI while Rotom possess motors. It is probably way easier to mass produce Rotom phones compared to Porygon phones. First thing that jumps to mind is that Rotoms power the phones themselves in some way making them much less reliant on needing to be charged by outside sources. I absolutely feel that Porygon would produce a higher quality product, but why bother when Rotom are good enough.
>>59095197How do they mass produce the Rotom them? Do they reproduce asexually or do they have to be made, and if so in what conditions?
>>59095197You also have to consider that Porygon are old hardware at this point, and attempts to upgrade them to keep up with modern technology hit a dead end with Porygon Z being an glitchy unreliable mess. You can't have that at the core of your phone's OS.
>>59095211Rotom can breed with a ditto. It's not that outrageous for them to be purpose bred for industrial use once it became obvious they could be used in that way.Makes as much sense as anything else in pokemon.
>>59095246Just a reminder that eating cloned ditto meat is the only way to ethically consume pokemon anything else is cannibalism.
>>59095246That still feels somehow weird given Rotom's nature, like how they just became commonality after being an apparent rarity for a couple of generations feels off.
>>59095246It's like dog breeding, where they get worse with each generation.Rotom are being SMASHED AND SLAMMED in real time.
>>59095308Isn't there a study about that?https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-026-69765-7>However, early studies showed that serial cloning in any mammalian species reached its limit after only a few generations.>Nevertheless, by improving cloning success using an epigenetic modification reagent that promotes nuclear reprogramming.>However, after continuing the experiment for 20 years, the success rate began to decline and eventually could not be sustained beyond 58 generations.
Isn't Rotom more hardware focused while Porygon is software?
>>59095211Humans are compatible with pokemon, so just get a rotom flashlight for personal use
>discarded lore implies Pokéhumans are like viltrumites able to fuck and reproduce with anything that movesFucking metal
>>59095334Go on /an/ and look at their memes sometimes.
>>59095658I do but I'm a lame fag so I think of the latest science article I saw trending instead of memes.
>>59092237what are some niche hobbies in the pokemon world?
There's nothing wrong in fighting side by side with your Pokémon btw, Kalosian faggots should shut up and go suck some loansharks
>>59095110"We'll get you wherever you go!" B)
>>59095885Do you niggers not get tired of posting the same shit over and over and over and over and over again? Go read. At least come up with something new to post about here from those things you read. Just get a life in general.
>>59096307Nah, I won't
>>59093259It's a skin condition!
>>59096450Harry Dubois, my beloved!
>>59094900That's one of the reasons I'm replacing them with Poryphones in all my settings. You're telling me Rotom went from legendarily rare to in the hands of billions of people within roughly a single decade? That's not enough time to breed that many Rotom.
>>59096540My answer to the question was that Rotom just LIKE Rotomphones. They're built to house Rotoms comfortably and wild ones seek them out to inhabit, and if you want you can purchase one without a Rotom that functions as a standard smartphone, and simply supply your own captured Rotom later.
>>59096551they just sell phones with they guy inside already
>>59092248>https://powerlisting.fandom.com/wiki/Plant_Growth>Fire>Adamant Male Scorbunny I become a mad scientist and use my cheat powers to speed up the growth of genetically modified/mutated plants in the hopes of creating the perfect lifeform. My fire types assist in destroying the failures, creating fertilizer for the next subject.To fund my experiments I run a charcoal selling business and maintain sports fields on the side
>>59096568forgot pic
>>59096551>and wild onesThat's part of what I don't like about it. Where are the wild ones coming from, and why weren't they bothering humanity before this? If Rotom were a pest on par with Rattata then it would've fit perfectly, but for some brilliant reason Gamefreak decided to make them turbo rare.I would've done that retcon myself, but the games made me hate rotomphones.
>>59096568Yeah but I have it so you can buy one for cheaper without the Rotom pre-installed So that it wouldn't get aggravating with three Rotomphones around instead of one.
>>59096307I just posted about a fanfic I read last thread.
>>59096573>but the games made me hate rotomphones.For me is also the lost of fun Pokedex designs or the Pokegear, I can understand is all bound to progress of science and all that but kind of miss that sort of Pokeverse technology fading away to fit the real world.
>>59096613my fic is just stuck on the early 2000s permanently
>>59096450Hey, 1/4096 is pretty common, isn't it?
>>59095402Yeah I don't know where some of the anons are getting the things they're talking about. Rotom is an electric poltergeist that possesses motors and whatever that motor's connected to, Porygon is literally living software that can enter anything that relies on software.Kinda lame that no one ever combines the two. A mecha that combines Rotom's motor improves, Porygon's software improves, Revavroom's additional motor and frame improvements, and Coalossal as a power source would be sick.
>>59096801>improves twicewell now I have to check for a gas leak or black mold, great
>>59096801Humans and pokemon interacting is good, but having one pokemon constantly shoved down your throat bitters you to its taste. I just don't like Rotom being a one sized fix all and constantly being shilled for oou reasons.
>>59096613That's why in PokeNormal the MCs are a retro tech hipster and a broke ass bum. So that I don't have to give either of them Rotom phones.
>>59094900It's just a coincidence that they started building all those Rotom factories right next to the pokemon graveyards and towers, don't worry about it.
>One boy's invention led to the development of many different machines that take advantage of Rotom's unique capabilities. -SS dexWho is it? Who do I have to go back in time to kill?
>>59097033You could alternatively travel back in time to fuck and impregnate his great great great grandma, altering his bloodline and erasing him from history
>>59097033I still think it's Clemont. He likely did it between XY & Z-A.
How would you say Mimikyu works? Surely there are Mimikyu that exist independent of places or even eras where Pikachu's popularity is at its peak. Did they still where plush/fabric-based covers in the old days, or at the very least places with no human intervention? Or would it have been simpler, like big leaves or shells or even an abandoned Clamperl shell, causing them to be mistaken for a shellfish Pokemon?Did they learn how to sew from us, or did we learn it from them?The way I see it Mimikyu took the disguise of other idols of worship before the big Pika boom, so maybe their disguises were those of Legendary Pokemon? Maybe the ones in Kitakami disguised themselves as Pecharunt via a giant painted nutshell, and them opening the shell was a move that kills you.
>>59097033Clemont is the one that started Rotom's as mainstream
>>59097178In ye old times they might have just taken over like coconuts and small bushes / leaf clusters / dead Pokemon / etc.
>>59097178They're part fairy so they presumably have access to fairy bullshit. Maybe the costumes manifested themselves
>>59097340They do get upset when their costumes get broken, and some Dex Entries imply effort and getting upset over said effort being ruined, so maybe this fairy bullshit has a limit in that context.
>>59095402Ye. Rotom fucks with the motors of machines like an electrical poltergeist, Porygon is living code. Liveleak vs malware attack.
Dindu noffing villains ruined Pokémon harder than Naruto ruined ninjas btw
>>59097774So who is your absolute bastard villain?Are they just doing it for the love of the game?Money?Control?Wanting to know what happens next?How do you give them their comeuppance?
>>59094902>ultimate gaslighter celebi that aggressively rewrites the MC's pastIsn't this the same as killing the MC and replacing them with a new one?
>>59098008Depends on how the story handles time travel. Personally I prefer when time travel can't create or destroy souls, so it auto corrects itself in a way to make sure the same people are usually born around the same times without very specific interference.
>>59098008
>>59097774I think this is just a result of obligation at this point. Like there NEEDS to be an "Evil" Team. Team Yell could've just been called Marnie's annoying fans with no indication that they're meant to be the evil team stand-in and it'd work just fine. Team Star works as its own thing, but likewise it's hard to see them as an evil team.
>>59097855Overwhelming greed and pride that overcomes his common sense. Honestly if he was a little less prideful or greedy he wouldn't be a villain, although he'd never be a hero.For a person like that, the only real ending he can get is being defeated, imprisoned, and stripped of all his financial assets. Although not killing him might allow him to claw his way back.
>>59098184I can think of another ending
>>59097855Someone who believes that no matter what they do, no matter what they destroy, it is all justified by the fact that when they get what they're after, everything before will stop mattering. Somebody so desperate to get what they want, or what they've lost, that they lose sight of reality and become fixed on the idea that this will put everything back the way it's meant to be, and they can go back to being happy and normal.And then for maximum poetry, you give them exactly what they wanted, but in a way they aren't able to be a part of themselves. Everything is back the way it's meant to be, only they can't find their own satisfaction in it.
>>59098196There are so many good lines from that show.>>59098184My next overarching villain is going to be perusing knowledge at the expense of everything and everyone else around him.I can think of how he's going to be defeated, exposed using the very methods of oppression he coerced, and stripped of power, but I haven't decided on what becomes of him after that.You can't exactly jail someone with psychic powers. I don't want to just kill him like how Scar gets eaten alive at the end of the Lion King by his betrayed underlings. Even if that would be thematic for the shit I'm going to have him do, that's not the mood of the fic.
Been researching Pokemon maps because I need to find a place to justifiably place a desert.
>>59098248Restrains with moonstones embedded in them to suppress his psychic powers. If that's not an option having the characters be forced to kill him could also work.But for less overarching villains there's one that's trapped by her nature but is entirely too revenge focused and misguided to get what she wants instead of needs and a another who is just has an incredibly shitty world view that he uses to excuse all of his actions.
Anyone else bored of Borne of Caution? It feels like it's missing something. Like it's bi-weekly release quality but instead every 2 months.
>>59098344Haven't read it, I'll probably start Crystal Light here pretty soon before picking up PoPT.
>>59097774>>59098178It's just another Ohmori fetish. Just like his mommy/daddy/family issues.I really hope that the Teraleak stuff about him being pulled out from the Director seat is true. Maybe, just maybe Gen 11 will actually be good. It would really be nice for a game to be a proper game and fully good from top to bottom again before I go fully gray.Maybe a triple miracle will happen and Morimoto is in charge of that Japan Regions Seed codenamed thingy.
>>59098344I simply don’t care about the gym fights anymore. Something about going months between a chapter and ending that chapter halfway through the gym fight was just so scummy to me. I heard there’s a certain Ninetales running around causing drama now and yeah, I simply do not care anymore. Also I started writing my own fights with actual stakes and it’s really hard to go back to caring about gym battles. Fugg must be hurting for cash a bit if he’s back to focusing on BoC with these rapid releases.
I'm surprised that to this day there's no Alola fixfix that tries to meld SM and USUM together into a coherent and proper narrative. >>59098344It became yet another meandering story.Very obvious the dragging on is to milk the Patreonbux, ending is nowhere in sight, there's not even a path towards a real ending. pacing gone to hell, release schedule went to hell. It just exists for the sake of it.Many such fanfics!
>>59098398>I'm surprised that to this day there's no Alola fixfix that tries to meld SM and USUM together into a coherent and proper narrative.I'm pretty sure they exist, just buried deep in Ao3 where no one from our little corner of pkmfanfic discussion would bother to check.Probably because there's a tag in there that gets filtered out
>>59098398Make the Ultrabeasts induviduals and supersentai villains, Nihilego is manipulating Lusamine but not mindcontroling her and they still fuse.Necrozma is the boss of the Ultrabeasts or maybe he and Nebby could just be removed from the plot entierly.That's my idea.
>>59098365>>59098398People make money writing pokemon fanfics...I knew this, but its just so strange every time I remember it.>>59098335Do moonstones have psychic suppressing properties?Maybe a dark type jailer.
>>59093331>Eureka/a/ what are you doing here?
>>59098344Fuggmann has been dragging his feet on BoC ever since he made a Patreon. The pacing is glacial, the plot is padded to hell, and every other chapter is a cliffhanger so that you'll just go subscribe already to get a few chapters early. I don't blame him for getting his bag, but he clearly doesn't care about it like how he used to. Or maybe he'd just rather be writing HMoFA smut. I blame Spacebattles, if he were allowed to fuck the fox on main I bet we'd be three arcs ahead by now.
>>59098417I'm just an OG XYfag who watched it live.
>>59098425He chose starfox as his next HMOFA fanfic so he's probably wisened up that choosing a biped over a qaudroped will at least make the romance more pallet able to some people.
>>59098360>Japan Regions Seed codenamed thingy.Will that truly happen? We haven't had a multi-region game in a while for obvious reasons. How will they circumvent it? Replace the Gym System with "Country Gyms"? Just make Gyms some optional challenge?Though it'd be fun to have a game with both Megas & Tera. That and perhaps actually walking the length of the Sinjoh Ruins zone.
>>59098463Nah, the important part is they're not a pokemon. He already tried switching over to bipeds with his Lucario fic but got burned by Spacebattles mods throwing a shitfit over them being a pokemon.
>>59098474He hasn't done shit with Desires even after moving to QQ
>>59098470It was pretty early-stage document/proposal so it's very possible and likely it'll straight-up get canceled. It's pretty high scope and this is GF we're talking about after all.
>>59098425Meanwhile Hard Enough grooms child Sabrina and gets away with it. There is no justice.
>>59098487It's luck of the draw, really. Plenty of fics, even on Spacebattles, where there's a melty or ten about the 18 years old MC trying to romance someone who was 17 years 364 days and 23:59:59 hours.Pokefucking has just too little plausible deniability. If anything that BoC is so popular and beloved despite how on your face it is about that is a testament to it.
>>59098442I thought you faggots were back in /padt/>>59098498>>59098487Spacebattles is just ridiculous when you look at all their Hachiman stories where he gets "omoshiroi" by any female close to him
>>59098507Depends on the franchise too. As always, gotta know your audience.Pokemonfags are just too touchy about "sexualization" of characters. In public at least. You've got to remember the kind of people that majorly run and browse Spacebattles too.
Is the rumor that fugg got banned from ao3 because he couldn't stop shilling his patreon true? If so, that's hilarious.
>>59097774Unironically, what's the problem with redeeming villains? I did never get the outrage
>>59098365>writing fightsWhat fic do you write? I've been trying to find good battles to read.
Does Spacebattles make an exception for Legendaries? I've got plans for the Fug to be with my MC.I can give them an obligatory human transformation, but I'm still not sure if that's kosher enough for Spacebattles. Worst case I just censor the entire relation for them, but that would mean my MC is foreveralone there.pic unrelated
>>59098540Prince of Po Town. The fights with stakes I’m specifically talking about are in chapters 34, 39, and then 43-44 (the BIG one im really proud of desuu)Also I want to mention that part of my inspiration for writing PoPT was to do BoC style fights with actual stakes and without Pokephilia. That story’s been incredibly influential for me even if I have gripes with now
>>59098538It's gotten way too trite and overdone and it's more often than not done very badly making it unsatisfying overall.
>>59098556Thanks, I'll have a read
>>59098538It's done badly, say what you want about DB but Vegeta got a nice character development from villain to hero while accepting all the stuff he did has no excuse and he doesn't deserve forgiveness compared to Sasuke saying sorry, coolest guy ever or in Pokémon terms memory loss Lyssandre and USUM Lusamine
I have the headcanon that most Pokemon characters age really slow or have a long lifespan, mostly because how advanced their technology is
>>59098545Nothing with pokemon is allowed, not even moemon or Arceus in human form. Banning everything is how they avoid "problems" be it with writers who try to edge the rules or readers who are extremely pokephobic.
>>59098507>I thought you faggots were back in /padt/LOL, nope. They got kick from /padt/>why?See, when Horizons first came out, it got nothing but hate from that place because they replace Ash. It was even worst with the Serenafags there since no Ash mean no Serena. It became so bad, that the mods had to come in and put their foot down. It became known as metaposting.They pretty much banned everyone who was just shitposting and not discussing the anime. They got kicked out and could never return. If you look at /padt/ right now, everyone there talks about Horizons now and even post fanart. However, you can't even ask what happened before because if you do, you might get banned. That's how serious it was. You can't even ask a question on what happen because it would be consider metaposting. If you ever go into a thread about someone talking about Horizons (not /padt/) you'll see one person spamming "Flop". That's because he was kicked from /padt/ and will stalk every Horizons thread just to shit on it as revenge. /padt/ is not the same as it was before.
>>59098644Lusamine's a preservation freak obsessed with beauty, of course she'd be slurping the pokemon stem cells and taking Ditto baths.
>>59098644there's also a Shauntal quote that says Cynthia's real age is a mystery
>>59098545Absurd Waifu choice. Exactly my thing. I'd love to read your work
>>59098653Holy fuck. Even Moemon? Site is for Karens I fear. But it's also why I straight up ignore fics being crossposted from an SB base despite being a huge fan of pigslop as it begin fitted into the SB mold, when the opposite happens the authors I like lobotomize their fic for the SB standards so I still get to enjoy the un-raped original.
>>59098556>Without pokephiliaI suppose someone who likes Lusamine's 600 pound life wouldn't appreciate the wholesome love between Pokemon and trainer.
>>59098534It's not a rumor, it was talked about in the old thread. >>47542645 >>47546049
>>59098653>not even moemon or Arceus in human formSpacebattles permits kissing/petting and bans penis in vagina sex and other forms of sex or that kind of speculation. I've 100% seen furry romance being written. I'm scrolling through the various staffposts and not seeing moemon or "turns into human so relationship is now fine" stuff being banned.
>>59098991>turns into human so the relationship is now fineWhat about “turns into Pokemon so the relationship is now fine”?
>>59098991Pretty sure they also ban bikini descriptions, years ago there was some drama with Kuroko from Raildex and her bikini.
>>59099436It's just the sporadic whims of mods, but BoC really does have the venn diagram of ban bait. with the Vulpix into Ninetails daughter-wife Pokephilia, not to mention her being a non-anthro furry love interest. Not to mention all of the flirting.It makes me curious how Spice and Fox will handle it, well it'll be easier in Spicefag's case since Braxien and Delphox are humanoid, but I'm still curious how her and Will's flirting will be.
>>59098723>>59099524I’ve been half tempted to post Spice and Fox there just for the meltdown.
>>59099538>not mentioning the vulpix being the zoo lioness
>>59099557That too, it's pretty boldly zoophilic. Not even I like that stuff, humanoid pokemon is about as far as I go.
>>59099553>just for the meltdown.Eh, you'd drown in there. Like we stated here multiple times you either get really lucky, use a more "popular" fandom than Pokémon or hit all their boxes to not get ignored.
>>59099582More for the Holly stuff and upcoming content but noted.
>>59099624SB is known for it's love of pedos, Will's loli-lust for a kid-daughter wouldn't turn heads.
Do you think the move Sing would grant perfect pitch? Would a tone-deaf pokemon suddenly be very good at singing when using the move?The move's accuracy is terrible, but maybe that's more-so about how much it comes down to the listener's preference in melody.
>I just referenced the region’s faltering bond marketI’m going to die of cringe, no matter how necessary the line is.
>>59099816Faltering bond market? I wonder how this will effect the friendship evo market. Rotomphone, look up "Lopunny inflation".
>>59099903Go back to Potown, your kind aren't welcome here.
>>59099903ChatPRG >>>> Rotomphone trash
>>59099816I think James Bond movies still make profit though
>>59099632It's the other way around. You have to sing good to know Sing.The inaccuracy could be from the fact that Sing could be easily interrupted or blocked out.
>>59092237what do you feel about real life brands and franchises appearing in fics? Does it break your immersion?
>>59100272There's a lot of irl refrences in Spice and Fox but they don't break my immersion. At worst it's like.>Bigfoot exists in the pokemon world? Neat.
>>59100280>BigfootI mean they did the yeti, twice
>>59100317Yeah but those are pokemon yeti, but Bigfoot as in the big ape, is just there as a cryptid presumably haunting the forests of Unova.Like I said, it's not bad, it's a bit neat, but it's also a bit silly. I don't dislike it.
>>59100346So, Zorua and Zoroarks pretending and failing to be human or other pokemon? Matches with how Skinwalkers are also portrayed. Wendigos could be a failed Illusion of a Sawsbuck.
>>59100365I don't really get how you go from great ape to human, but that was somwhoe my assumption as well. Besides that I like Zoroark being a cryptid.
>>59098653Oh my arceus, just write about how they had an intense pillow fight and then slept together and whoops, an egg appeared while they were sleeping! How did it get there? Nobody knows!
>>59100590I think more people are interested in the sex part, rather than the having the kid part. Although maybe women would be into that, but knowing what women write it'd probably involve shotarape.
>>59098653>Pokémon banned from SpaceBattlesFuck, guess they don't want to deal with the tier list.
I am 117,000+ words into this fic and I have finally reached the milestone in the story where the Smeargle MC gets to learn Transform.I already have plans in place to check him so he cannot go full UNLIMITED POWER in the next arc, but it's going to be a fun ride for me as he slowly dismantles those checks.
>>59100740Wait I misread the conversation. Is this about straight up Poképhilia?>>59098991So, only if they're humans that can turn into animals and not the other way around (werewolves are okay, dragonflies are banned)?
>>59100691....didn't they outright banned porn there?
>>59100771Yeah, but I'm saying why would you want to make your MC a parent? A woman seems more likely to do that sort of thing than a man, but she's also more likely to write a kid happening via shotarape, offscreen shotarape but still shotarape.
>>59100691>he's not into having an egg breakfast with 200% organic eggs
I think it's because that, since they banned porn there, they're cautious about any mention of sexual intercourse in the forums. I Think you could get away with "behind closed doors" but you still have to established that they "made love".However they still outright ban promotion of zoophila (possibly an antishipping stance).
>>59100795Replying to>>59100773
>>59100795Well zoophilia is freakshit so that's understandable but Pokemon are basically people, unless someone goes out of their way to make pokemon more animalistic or specifically fetishizes the animal-like traits of the pokemon it cant be called Zoophilia. It's like aliens or other sentient non-humans which are mutually intelligible. Because lets face if you want human/pokemon romance you'll have to give them some form of direct communication, even if it's just the pokemon learning how to speak human languages like Meowth did.>>59092237Mass Effect, also Obligatory.>"Twilek Twilek!" My 5'11 Twilek bounced up and down excitedly, eyeing the bowls of kibble as I poured them.>"Settle down Ribbon, you know the rules: everyone gets their pokemon kibble at the same time, no early eaters!">"Twilek..." She coos sadly, hugging her flesh tendrils around her neck with dejection.>"Sorry about that Ash, Ribbon's been really eager to eat and train more ever since she saw your Twilek evolve into a Huttese.">"Huttese!" Barked Ash's large Huttese, his rolls of greased up fat glistening in the sunlight.>"No problem Self-Insert! Huttese and I are really looking forward to battling her once she evolves into a Huttese too!">"Asari! Asa, ri!" "Quarian, Quarian!">"Haha, and so do Asari and Quarian!"
>>59100807>Well zoophilia is freakshit so that's understandable but Pokemon are basically people, Not according to TCPI’s mandates.Why else did they forbids the use of Pronouns for Pokémon?
>>59100795You're replying to the wrong guy, he questions not the sex but the resulting kids (which is a based way to end a fic btw, just showing the MC and the pokemon caring for a big family)
>>59100813The TCPI are retarded and their mandates are more about managing a brand.
>>59098653Otherwords, that banned Poképhillia in all forms because it was run by Antis.
>>59100813>they forbids the use of Pronouns for PokémonThey also make the pokemon eat their pokeslop off their little dog bowl and on the ground... Just like animals, because that's the only thing safe for the kids these days.
>>59100753Keep it up MiManon!
>>59100825Yes, and that's the point; Space Battles doesn't want to promote zoophilia in a message board filled with teens.
>>59100813>forbids the use of Pronouns for PokémonHuh?>>59100832>They also make the pokemon eat their pokeslop off their little dog bowl and on the ground... Just like animals, because that's the only thing safe for the kids these days.Huh?Wait, what are you guys talking about? Did they really went out of their way to make sure Pokémon are treated as animals instead of the super close partners they're supposed to be in lore?
>>59100837Spacebattles is full of pedos saying outloud they're not pedos while writing pedo fantasies
>>59100832Mainly because they don't want to complicate the issues of the relationship between Pokémon and humans as it will lead to questions about slavery.
>>59100839Yes, as >>59100847 stated, they don't want to bring up the issue of slavery of sapient beings, so they made Pokémon the analogous to animals (even going so far that to state that Humans aren't Pokémon and animals doesn't exist in that world). It's so that children won't ask their parents too many questions.
>>59100847That's silly, most of the audience won't think of that sort of thing unless you bring it up explicitly.
>>59100863Wait, that means you can use them as war weapons and there would be nothing wrong in that because they're animals that can be trained.You get rid of the precious partner/friend to get stuck with super powered animals that can be trained to do anything.>>59100847Dragon Riders have been a thing in fantasy since forever and everyone used to think that's cool with no one thinking dragons are slaves, at least back then tho because I have no idea about how that's treated in modern fantasy
>>59100839For the non PMD games, the game uses a lot of "it"s when referring to pokemon.
>>59100346Regional Variant/Alt Evolution timeFighting/Grass Crabominable maybe to reflect its forested habitat? Poison Heal in reference to how its eating habits are a bit indiscriminate or how it branches into these niches to eat what other mons can't. I think some good moves for this mon could be Mach Punch, maybe Spore if shrooms and moss grow on its back!
>>59101493Too late I've already typed the words>Finding Zoroark
>>59101356It expanded to Pokopia to the point that it seems like a cultural difference than a corporate mandate.
>>59101271>Wait, that means you can use them as war weapons and there would be nothing wrong in that because they're animals that can be trained.>>You get rid of the precious partner/friend to get stuck with super powered animals that can be trained to do anything.Well, they wanted to be treated more like Pets you recruit to your party series.
>>59101509That's really sad. I'm going to do that to my cool pokemon friends in my fiction. Some big themes I think about are fighting against that dehumanization and disposability, turning people and mons into business/stat units, meatgrinders metaphorical and literal. Cruelty Squad shit. https://youtu.be/riSi0-N_jYA
>>59101565If it make you feel any better, the japanese version does gave them pronouns....through speech quirks.
>>59101565It is sad, that means they were never truly equal despite almost every piece of media trying to tell you otherwise and I don't think this can be blamed on Ohmori.Which is weird because iirc Masuda seethed everytime Pokémon were considered nothing but tools or animals and he even got furious at the ICY! Movie with that Pikachu scene because it didn't transmit any kind of friendship
>>59101585Once again, you got TPCi to blame as they have strict rules for western representation of the world of Pokémon. This was due to a huge language and cultural barriers between Japan and the western sphere; hence why GameFreak were able to get away with a lot of shit since they technically owns the western devision.
>>59101585>>59101585>and I don't think this can be blamed on Ohmori.Ohmori's the one obsessed with human drama so it goes to reason he'd do his utmost to portray Pokemon like that.
I like ninjas, any story with good ninjas be it as enemies, allies or MC? No SI-LVER Eyes tho, it tries too hard to be "serious"
>>59092237>TQNot a match up, but I'd like to see a Beastars-like world where there are only pokemon, but unlike PMD they aren't basically humans and their nature as animals and the conflict within a society of diffrent types of animals is more important than the JRPG plot I as an outsider perceive PMD to have.
>>59100835I'm having fun writing transformation sequences and all the weird feelings that would come with it.
>>59102052Pokopia hundreds of years after the game where humans are still in space?
>>59102065I'd rather there not be any humans, that way there can be messy fucked up stuff like the government eugenics program. If humans used to exist it would be too easy to explain things like domestic breeds of pokemon, ecological, or social problem caused by the remnants of their society.Basically I'd rather not have humans be boomers but I don't know what else I'd do with them so I'd probably not include them at all.
>>59102052I'm guessing Pokemon battles have been deemed illegal?
>>59102182Everything I've thought of for it is SoL plots but yeah I think so. Of course just like in real life there's be martial arts sports or sports that take advantage of the traits of certain types.But real pokemon battling, the type that pokemon want on a biologically level would be considered unseemly and a remnant of the savage past.
>>59102235Imagine random checks from the poke police to see what moves you have learned. Get arrested or fined because you know payday and now have to go to the Hypno therapist weekly to have it disabled.
>>59101509Pokopia is a weird case, while Pokemon talk to each other using only "it" pronoun, the records written by their trainers do use he and she pronouns. It's like Pokemon don't know about the concept of gender
>>59102576
>>59102576>>59102579>Trannycalization fanfictionInto the trash it goes.Learn Japanese already.Enjoy gyaru bulba, tomboy charmander, ojou pikachu and gardevoir and more.
>>59102576>>59102579>>59102596this does beg the question - if that's the intent, why not use "they" and not "it"? Heck I'd say the so-called "less progressive" humans are more respectful to Pokemon than Pokemon themselves for using hes and shes over its.Also, how do they not have a concept of gender? Breeding is a thing. And for it to be a thing a species needs a means to percieve its kind's males and females. Some Pokemon have very blatant differences based on such even.
>>59102596Didn't they pass a law to prevent this?
Okay, next TQ idea: for you autistic writers out there, what would be your season 1 Anime intro?
>>59102729You mean like an opening? I'd do a collage of all the cool ideas I had that didn't end up making it into the actual story, each presented to look like spoilers even though it's all noncanon.
>>59102793Based asf actually.
>>59102729you mean the theme song? it could be this onehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1hfbQ236Qvw
>>59102729You mean a song to play? I think something along the lines of say... the opening of a VN (or its anime adaptation) from between 2005 & 2019, if that makes sense.It is intended to be action-packed, but the equivalent of "Season 1" is a lot more focused on building bonds and rustic exploration of endless wilds and maybe completing trials with the goal of finding mother, so I think soothing music, perhaps even with woodwinds, would suffice.https://youtu.be/91tEfQX-sLoorhttps://youtu.be/i2GMeDD6y9c
>>59102729I would have a series of establishing landscape shots of the location where the episode/chapter takes place, or travel shots. I remember Mushoku Tensei did something similar.
>>59100346>but it's also a bit sillygood, Pokemon is supposed to be silly
So does Pokopia imply that most Pokemon aren't aware of their nicknames and just refer to themselves by species name? Travelling in herds and flocks must be tough.
Does anyone know any good fics focused on Pokemon breeding that aren't porn? I'm wondering how the Pokemon would see the process, considering their kids are getting sent off.
>>59103024That sounds like a niche you'll have to fill on your own.
>>59102729I'd pull a Madoka and have it change half-way through from joyful upbeat silliness and cuteness to nothing but angst. It would be great.
>>59102576>>59102579Yeah, I guess the localizers misread the style guide for Western Audience:>"Hey, do you remember that we must portray all Pokémon as unisex with gender neutral pronouns for western audience?">"Yeah, we kinda have to compromise it with they/them so that we can characteri....">"You forgot the human records.">"....what?">"you forgot to make all the humans refer to the Pokémon as it/these, and now everyone think that pronouns is a societal concept">"And that's a problem because....">"Look, we don't want to have complaints from the consumers in term of "Confusing the children", so you better rectify that; PRONTO">"...I'll send out a patch when we're done"
>>59102605as >>59103469 state, possible localization oversight.
>>59102729https://youtu.be/qmbgCBZ86z4?si=IZxWrU8s1390GUWxOpening starts with a back view of Wol and Blastoise standing beside the tree on the hill overlooking the bridge as the sun rises. Sweeps around to show them from the front looking stoic before something catches their attention. Looking up at them from the bottom of the hill is Garland, Sarah, and Jane along with Charizard, Venusaur, and Pikachu cheerily waving up at them. Wol and Blastoise smile and head down to meet them. Cut to Garland, Wol, Sarah, and Jane with Pikachu walking through changing scenery (town, forest, cave, swamp, desert, volcano) with wild pokemon curiously watching them. Cut to battle on a stormy sea as Wol blocks an attack from a Sharpedo with his shield from atop Blastoise's shell. A flames from Charizard and Garland in the air above them blast the Sharpedo away, before focusing on Sarah and Jane on a ship. Pikachu jumps off of Jane's shoulder to unleash a massive lightning bolt that fades the scene to white. One after the other 5 silhouettes pass on screen followed by Blastoise, who looks back into the sky to see the dark figure of four unknown pokemon looming above them before an even larger figure rises up behind them. Cut back to Blastoise surrounded by the rest of the group as they prepare for battle, focusing on the tip of Garland's sword as he raises it towards their foes. A flash from the sword changes the scene to a blue sky as it lowers to show the group standing upon their ship and smiling as they sail towards the horizon.Second episode's opening is the same but only Wol and Blastoise are present. Sarah and Jane are only seen at the hill, and the battle scene replaces them with flashes of Wol and Garland's battle along with the aftermath. From there the openings add the other characters and pokemon they meet to the opening, the silhouettes becoming the Pokemon of Light and the main foes with Mewtwo being the large shadow. And Wol has Garland's sword.
>>59102820This song makes me go 'hell yeah'.
>>59103018Pokemon, like real life animals, don't have specialized roles that individuals perform that require needing to call for a specific individual. If you need help you can just call for help and your tribe who can hear you will come. You have an elder, then they are The Elder. You can easily recognize individuals that are closer to you than others without them needing a specific name, and there is no record of lineages or cultural hierarchy that require individuals to be labeled by name.

>>59104159>Worst qualityIt’s a pretty large in scale so when I make a throwaway line involving a strategic detail 150k words ago about something I didn’t think would be important again I am now bound by that detail. >Top qualityI’ve got a lot of versatility with what I can do to fit what I’m trying to do around those annoying little details from 150k words ago.
>>59102729Intros? Nah, inserts are where it's at. Criminal how the anime doesn't do it. Inject the "Clear Mind" or "What's Your Fire" in my veins.
>perusing QQ>see story that I haven't gotten an update for in a while >click on it to check the author's profile to see what he's been posting if anything>actually the story has been updated several times within the past month and I haven't seen a single update for it>because the story unwatched itselfit's only QQ that does this shit
>>59104459How many stories are you following that you couldn't be bothered to check?
>>59104459How do you not get swamped with notifications of replies in the thread? It's the only thing keeping me from watching threads on QQ.
>>59104459That's why I use Ao3 for alerts, it's way easier to catch updates there by subcribing to a fic and getting an email when something updates.
>>59104252>more upbeatHonestly, if I were to go full autism THIS should be the theme of a Final Fantasy 1 anime.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LpBTx_UM_lYBut I wanted something that had lyrics, and that fan remix of You're Not Alone really fits the themes of Crystal Light really well. It's also the song that plays during one of the best moments of Final Fantasy 9. Plus, in my mind Crystal Light has sort of an old school fantasy aesthetic like Record of the Lodoss Warhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tEgz76YKHHYBut if I ever made a real animated opening I'd probably make my own lyrics and sing it. There's also this option.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OyjTDiNWT0k
>>59092237how do you write an academy fic without making it boring?
>>59105130Literally impossible. Academy fics are modern sleeping aids.
>>59105130Write about interesting things. What's interesting about academies? Off the top of my head is learning interesting things about a setting along with the characters, and the politics and drama of school life that's a more contained reflection of larger society.
>>59105130I guess you can try to recreate a school setting, complete with bullies, dramafags, best friends and everything else.Although i don't know if it's better to have pokemon always free (it's pokemon, you're reading it for the pokemon) or stuck in their balls and let out only during certain hours (what makes more sense in universe, but you get way more human interactions)Either way the academy should have dedicated battling hours
>>59104500I accumulate watched stories like a dragon does treasurethat is to say, manyalso there have been so many good stories that just fell off the face of the earth that I don't bother remembering anything I've followed until there's an update and it's shoved back into my face>>59104603just gotta kinda deal with it, I think somewhere in the settings you can set alerts to only go when the thread maker posts but that still gives you shitty forum posts where they reply to 30 people at once>>59104898I just keep a tab open and refresh them to check for alerts in the mornings and whatnot
>>59104603QQ lets you only receive alerts for threadmarks.
>>59105130I think going outside the confines once in a while would do great.
You're telling me the Slowpoke line can devolve but the jellyfish-based Pokemon can't?
>>59105130Write from the perspective of a Sensei? GTO
>>59105130What if it was an Academy CITY?
