>>59387718If bonds are a two-way street and the human is presumably getting superpowers out of it, what's in it for the pokemon? Humans aren't inherently magical, so does the pokemon feel themselves getting more intelligent and rational as the bond strengthens?
>>59387718First post for Green
>>59387742Friendship-based evolution
>>59387742If they're a two-way street then the pokemon must be benefitting as well, even if not nearly as much since they're already supernatural. The real question is how much do the pokemon get out of it other than the practical side of having a slave class catering to their every need.>>59387765Friendship doesn't have to be with a human, seeing how there are wild friendship evos.
>>59387742Literally a gameplay element.>At affection level 2 and higher, a Pokémon will gain 1.2 times (approximated as 4915/4096 in Generation VII) the normal experience from battles.>At affection level 3 and higher, a Pokémon may endure attacks that could otherwise make it faint and survive with 1 HP (including confusion damage). This effect initially has a 10% chance to happen per hit, and can potentially happen for multiple hits. This chance increases to 15% at level 4, 20% with an affection stat of at least 200 (roughly halfway between level 4 and level 5), and finally 25% at level 5.>At affection level 4 and higher, a Pokémon can sometimes shake off status conditions at the end of the turn, 20% of the time.>At 200 affection or higher, a Pokémon can sometimes avoid attacks, by subtracting 10% from their accuracy. Moves that normally have 100% accuracy are still subject to this reduction, but moves that cannot miss (such as Swift) are not.At affection level 5, a Pokémon's chance of scoring a critical hit is doubled.
>>59387718>TQRegigigas created the world by pulling the continents apart because he was punished, like Sisyphus, into doing it
>>59387718I literally knocked up the concepts of time and space IRL, and Arceus thought that was hot and tried to replicate it to woo me but I'm not into llama pussy.
>>59387533Lucky for you I'm too busy making futa on foxgirl content to make Pokemon stuff right now.
>>59387742Wild Pokemon don't have EVs
>>59387718Fanfics are for women and fags
>>59387857Alphas do.

>>59387863>>59387938samefagalso you don't have to hide behind a pepejak when baiting. It's low test
>>59387939>He doesn’t know who he’s responding toNGMI
>>59387718One of those creation myths give the primordial entity role to Rhyperior.
>>59387787Punished by whom? It would come back to the creation trio again.
>>59388119By Hugh Mann, the creator of all things including the creation trio.
>>59388119By his children for being a bum
>>59388153>Regigigas is Arceus' deadbeat dad>Arceus having the hots for humanity, who look like Regigigas, is because of her repressed daddy issues
Defeating Shadow Deoxys was a terrifying experience that required a team to lure it into an EMP field so we could battle it. It got a Energy overshield in HP form

>>59387863Fanfic may be popular with women, but it takes a real man to write a good fic
>>59386532>Having a story you need to get out and not being able to is fucking infuriating. I feel for you anon. In the meantime we should come up with more allegations for Mahoganyfag. The longer he goes without POASTING the more degenerate they should get.Feel free, I already have a portfolio of fics on ao3 you can dredge through for slander if you want. Although the slander list is getting a but long for one post, I already made Pofag's section a bit smaller.
>>59387774Such bullshit holy shit
>>59388591The power of friendship is bullshit alright
>>59388604>t.villain
>>59388591>game about the power of friendship>having mechanics where friendship makes you stronger is bad
>>59387774We need more villains with a strong, loving bond with their team who also love doing psychotic shit together. It'd be hilarious to see objectively evil pieces of shit get repeatedly bailed out by the power of friendship before they get back to torturing innocents or kicking puppies and whatnot
>>59388473The Ultra Recon Squad didnt stand a chance against Shadow Deoxys. They couldn't even catch all the weakened ultra beasts in Sun/moon. Only Maga rayquaza and a lucky strike team led by Green was able to subdue and capture Shadow Deoxys after it broke out of 3 master balls and fled. Beast Balls almost caught it once but it also broke out of that. They had to freeze, paralyze, and put it to sleep at 1 hp to actually catch it.
>Maga rayquaza
>>59389208He could never train a Rayquaza, Air Lock would kill him from having none of his own farts to sniff
>>59389211Both hate aliens though
>>59389222everyone does
>>59389259I don't.
>>59389259i want to fuck aliens though
>>59389208They keep saving the pokemon world every time shadow deoxys shows up.
I feel so lucky to have married her.
>>59389208Is having a Trump expy as the president of Unova in your fic based or cringe?
>it's probably at least a month, maybe more until i get to laugh at greenfag's supposedly existing storyIt's fine, i'm patient.
>>59390101Depends entirely on the effectiveness of the parody. True mad genius comes from using a historical president but specifically to hone in on some insane trivial fact about them, like doing a William Henry Harrison expy and adding the detail that he only went into politics after winning the Championship in his region and got dethroned after just 31 days.
>>59390101Something tells me you'd get shitshows in your comments from both sides unless it was specifically played for laughs. If you do former US Presidents it’s not a big deal apparently. No one seems bothered by Teddy Roosevelt in PoPT.
>>59390101>MAGA Rayquaza>but its just mega rayquaza
>>59390111He aint writing shit bro.
>>59390111>>59390139Bruh I'm pretty sure even his two-sentence larp blurbs are off ChatGPT, I'd be shocked if he wrote the goddamn captcha himself.
>implying its a LARP and not real life
The motorcycle chase arc was fun.
>>59390121That's because it's Teddy, he's one of the most beloved american presidents. Probably even more than FDR, and just under Aberham Lincon. His pop-culture version is also a lot more fun compared to Lincoln's. He just seems larger than life and the sort of guy who'd do crazy shit, besides the PoPT Teddy isn't the literal Teddy Roosevelt, just a alternate universe version of him. Fun fact Lincoln was a humorist, the reason he never smiled was because he found politics endlessly boring. The guy who made his life mask talks about it. Pretty interesting stuff.
>>59390294Gonna be really funny when I paraphrase “”The Man in the Arena” speech in a few chapters
>>59387718>TQI just don't think about it, I like the idea of there being a lot of regional myths but, 'the creation of the universe' feels pretty out of scope for most fics as something to bring up if it isn't important. Other than that I imagine Kanto and Johto have a generic japanese creation myth.But, as a aside, what are your thoughts about gender differences in pokemon, do you use them in stories, like seeing them pop up? How about introducing new ones? Picrel of course, but I imagine that female Chingling and Chimecho don't jingle or jangle, since they don't have any balls, lol.
>Tfw your fic gets mentioned on reddit along with the elite onesI’m gonna cry, bros.
>>59390501Time to open a patreon and pretend like you never knew usAlso>reddit
>>59390558If only.
>>59390558I do wonder how many potential readers on ao3 don't read some of the fics in the collection because they're associated with this place.
>>59390656Very few people run background checks on authors unless there are AIisms.
>>59390656Notch came from /v/ btw
Big bad? Smeargle with a god complex Heroine? Chief Joy Partner pokemon? Choice scarf Smeargle (unrelated to big bad) We are gaming
What do you feel about bullshit tactics in battles? Like Ash's Hawlucha breaking Trick Room by just attacking it
>>59390880>breaking Trick Room by just attacking itDid they use a move that made sense? Or did Hawlucha just like, kick the ground and make it go away?Bullshit that makes sense isn't exactly bullshit.
