ohh hold on… for The Big Pkmn Y Fic should I keep Yvonne’s vitiligo close to what I already thought on (left) or change it to look like a Y shape… I like the idea but I feel like it’s a little too. On the nose. So to speak…

no you don’t understand. x and y were the first pokémon games i, and a significant number of gen z, ever played. my bonds with my two best friends when i was little were almost entirely formed through bonding over these games. we didn’t notice how unfinished it was and loved every second of it. we didn’t notice how unfinished it was until we encountered zygarde, and went online to see if there was more to it and found out there wasn’t. i waited and waited for a pokémon z announcement - i played black and white 2 and heart gold while waiting, and would watch theory videos about what would be in it, or when they would announce it. i’d go to bed at night dreaming of playing it, and talking to my friends about it, and i’d dream of being in the pokémon world and befriending zygarde, and fighting xerneas and yveltal alongside it because it was just such a cool pokémon. and then they never announced it. oras are my favourite pokémon games but they didn’t fill the z shaped hole in my kid heart. by ultra sun and moon times, i gave up and forgot about it, besides feeling nostalgic whenever i heard about the leaked documents proving there was a plan for it. the shoe-horned in zygarde in sun and moon did nothing to help.
and now they announce a legends z game. no doubt a prequel to x and y. the amount of lore in x and y that didn’t get explored is mind boggling, and now we have a chance to finally see it. the king? the pokémon war? volcanion and magearna? diancie? zygarde’s battles with xerneas and yveltal? i’m sure there’s even more i don’t remember. and they even put the mega evolution symbol at the end - everyone’s favourite gimmick, the first to ever exist.
they’re finally going to give x and y a proper ending, a proper goodbye. and i couldn’t be happier.

POKEMOB!!!! ive been thinking abt this nonstop for like, weeks. check it out, though! lots of little guys! reigen's special move where he chucks his nacli at the foe as hard as possible! teru's furfrou's matching wig! other stuff! this post has 18 images
@skypiea helped SO much with pokemon choices for this also!
see under the cut for full teams and further explanation!!! please check it out
mob - ralts & espurr. later, silvally. mob isn't a trainer, and his pokemon don't fight. they're just little guys. type:null was originally toichiro's (who used various pokemon alongside the human claw grunts), mob met it in aftermath of the divine tree once everything in the domination arc was over. (it still doesn't battle or anything. big fancy lapdog full of love.)
ritsu - unovan braviary, bisharp, and alakazam. going along with his student council status & top-of-the-line grades, ritsu's a skilled trainer with some powerful pokemon. braviary and bisharp were his most used pokemon early on- they're sort of representative of his student council thing (note braviary's unobtainable psychic type form)- but abra was his first pokemon, a counterpart to mob's ralts. it only evolved first during ritsu and the esper kids' attempted escape of the 7th division claw building.
reigen - murkrow, greavard, thievul, and nacli. reigen's not a trainer, his pokemon are both pets and assist him with work. with the exception of nacli, dark and ghost types are his specialty (psychic-adjacent types, but Not actual psychic types). his murkrow imitates him constantly. greavard is uu-chan, of course, but this time he doesn't get eaten by dimple (uu-chan is still feeding on reigen's soul). one of nacli's possible abilities in the games is "purifying salt", which cuts damage from ghost moves. reigen's nacli, of course, has sturdy. and to quote kite, re: thievul: "Reigen: would an untrustworthy guy have THIS [sends out the thief pokemon]"
teru - furfrou (shiny), zoroark (maybe shiny i cant decide. burple), and togepi (later togekiss). before his encounter with mob in season 1, teru didn't actually use his pokemon in battle often- they're rare, flashy, and/or powerful, but they were lackeys and status symbols just as much as his underlings at black vinegar were. his relationship with his pokemon improved after he started to work on his humility, leading to the evolution of his togepi.
shou - morpeko, latias, and (mega) blaziken. he's a super tough trainer, and he cares about his pokemon So much. he rides his latias like she's a surfboard
serizawa - swoobat & bewear. serizawa didn't really have pokemon growing up after his self-imposed isolation- the stufful he had as a kid was taken care of by his mother once that happened. he met his woobat a while after joining claw, and it evolved sometime after the world domination arc. bewear isn't entirely his- but after the world domination arc, he reconnected with it and takes care of it some of the time. the rest of the time it's serimama's gigantic housebear
tome - two (later three which become a single magneton) magnemite, orbeetle, eventually elgyem. i think magnemite just fits her vibes... plus it's a bit ufo-y, innit. she HAD to have a bug, and i mean..look at orbeetle's gmax form! and it has the telepathy ability! unfortunately, despite her best efforts, orbeetle's telepathy ability hasn't proved useful for finding human telepaths. she caught elgyem on new years, on the way back down to the car. tome can hold her own in battle, but training for battle isn't something she's focused on.
dimple - is a yamask! his big powerful form is cofagrigus, obvs. his mask is usually blank save for the cheek spots, since he has no memory of his life as a human. the mask does change to fit the (LOL) and psycho helmet cult as well. he places his mask on someone's face to possess them like any other yamask, to others it just appears as the regular red cheeks, but to folks who can see spirits they see the mask. when possessing someone, his expressions will show on the mask as well.
whew, i think that's everything i wanted to talk about. thanks for reading!

BEHOLD!! THE AU I'VE BEEN COOKING UP FOR MONTHS!!
DIGIMOM CODENAME: DREAMLAND!
Basic Story Info: Susie is the daughter of Max Haltmann, the CEO and founder of his own computer company. (kinda like the original Susie lol)
But on her 18th birthday, a bunch of Digimon came through a portal and kidnapped her father and half the employees of the company. And it's up to Susie to save her father from whatever evil Digimon is behind all of this.
Accompanying her as her digital partners are the first two friendly Digimon she met in the Digital World. Marxamon and Magomon. Two sneaky little scam artists that Susie saved from an angry mob.
Once they heard her story, they both (eventually) agreed to help Susie find her father and protect her from the dangers of the Digital World, with Susie mysteriously gaining a Digivice in the form of a wrist watch as a symbol of their friendship.
Together, the three of them traveled all across the Digital World, fighting battles, solving mysteries, exploring new areas, you get the idea.
-------
Info on Susie: A young girl from the city of [insert place in Japan that isn't effing Tokyo]. She's a headstrong go-getter and intelligent gal, who's a major tech wizard, finding comfort in machinery and modeling. She has a weakness to cute fluffy things and sweet treats. She's a huge "papa's girl", as her loving father is the best dad (and only parent) a girl could ask for. Which makes finding him even more important to her.
-------
Info on Marxamon: A silly little jester bat digimon that shares DNA with the Demon Lord of Gluttony, Beelzemon, and a childhood friend of Magomon. With a "gives no shits" attitude and a craving for mischief, Marxamon is always up for a good prank or two. His special move "Spiraling Scream" has been known to leave even the strongest of champions feeling dizzy and temporarily deaf.
His Champion evolution, Jecksmon, is no different. Growing bigger wings, longer legs, and an even bigger taste for mischief than before! Having the ability to create mirrored copies of himself with his special move "Mirror Dance", and shoots blasts of chaotic energy from his mouth with his other move "Soul Cannon", he truly becomes chaos reincarnated!
-------
Info on Magomon: A little bell-shape feline magician that shares DNA with the Demon Lord of Greed, Barbamon, and a childhood friend of Marxamon. Although somewhat timid, his cunning and clever nature shows no bounds, treating almost anything like a performance he must perfect. Shrouding his secrets in veils of lies that he swears to never unravel, as it might bring unwanted attention, (aka: this bitch's got MEGA TRAUMA and is keeping it all a secret). His special move "Gemtastic Bombs" has him throwing multiple bombs made of different types of gems, usually Sapphire, Ruby, and Emerald.
His Champion evolution, Galormon, gives him a huge confidence boost and some card tricks up his (metaphorical) sleeves! With the ability to spin around, creating a tornado of cards and fire with his special move "All-In-Spin" and sucking in enemies into his hat with his other special move "Hatter Hole", his performance on the battlefield makes this fancy Digimon a sight to behold!
----
The other evolutions are gonna be left a mystery for now, cuz I haven't drawn them yet, lol.
So yeah, I hope you like this new AU!! I worked my ass off to figure this stuff out, and I hope it was worth the wait!!! ^w^

I know everyone and their mom has already said Snivy, Torchic, and Piplup will be the legends z-a starters. And they're completely 100% right, and here's why. Remember, this is only speculation, please don't take some rando's word as fact.
First off, evidence. I'm sure we've all already seen the Indigo Disk trailer with Snivy, Torchic, and Piplup with the previous legends starters, Rowlet, Cyndaquil, and Oshawott respectively.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
But has anyone said anything about the tera raids events? The first was Mighty Blaziken from January 19th to 21st; it's tera type was Flying type. And you're probably asking "but the new starters are probably getting megas and Blaziken already has one." Yes, but why can't he have two? Charizard and Mewtwo do, and Blaziken's quite popular, so a second mega isn't out of the question in my eyes.
Tumblr media
Next was Mighty Empoleon from February 9th to 11th. It's tera type was Ice type.
Tumblr media
As of this post, Serperior has yet to get a raid event, but I believe the next starter tera raid will be this haughty plant snake, and I believe it's tera type will be Fighting. Why? Because it completes this type trio:
Fighting > Ice > Flying
So we have three starters who final evolutions will be Fire/Flying, Water/Ice, and Grass/Fighting. But why these types specifically? Strap in, because this is where things get interesting.
Everyone knows that Empoleon is based on Napoleon Bonaparte, infamous general and emperor of France. So why not Water/Fighting? Because in 1812, Napoleon attempted to lead an army into Russia to conquer it. What he failed to account for was the frigid weather, which took out the majority of his troops and forced them to retreat. So maybe Kalosian Empoleon will be in this constant state of near freezing based on this event, it would be a glass cannon.
Tumblr media
People chose Torchic as the fire starter since the rooster is France's national animal. It became France's symbol because in ancient times, when the Roman Empire occupied France (then named Gaul), the rooster wasn't worshipped, but rather the god it symbolized, Mercury, the Roman god of travelers, communication, and many others things. Mercury was also known for being very, very fast. So maybe Kalosian Blaziken will be a speedy pokemon.
Tumblr media
About the travelers and communication bit, perhaps this oversized chicken will also be inspired by messenger pigeons, which were used during World War I to send messages across countries. (Let's hope that if abilities come back, this doesn't get speed boost again, lmao)
Tumblr media
Finally, we come to Serperior. Pokemon designer Ken Sugimori said that Serperior was inspired by a manga called The Rose of Versailles, we all know this. It's about a woman raised as a boy trained to be a royal guard, who later leaves to join the side of the revolution. Kalosian Serperior could look more like a literal rose, covered in thorns, and will probably have a lance for a tail. This snake will definitely be both offensive and defensive, best of both worlds.
So we have a general, a guard, and a messenger. The theme surrounding these three things seems to be wartimes. A hint at the story maybe? Honestly, I could be dead wrong on this, but I don't care, I love this trio, I hope I at least get close. I might make another post speculating with other starters. Any thoughts?
EDIT 3/31/24: Ok so the next tera raid was announced, and I was kind of right. It is a grass type starter. However, it's Meganium with Psychic tera type...
Tumblr media
Y'know what? I think I'll try and make a post predicting what this is about later.

Collection of observations so far on Pokémon Legends: Z-A
It'd be reasonable to assume that PLZA is going to be based around the same time period as Haussmann's renovation of Paris, a major public works initiative focused on city modernization (by the day's standards). This included taking down a lot of medieval neighborhoods and replacing them with avenues, squares, and parks, as well as installing extensive water-based features such as sewers, aqueducts, and (of course) fountains. Haussmann was eventually dismissed bc he was being way too extravagant with spending (along with other political stuff etc etc), but the modern-day layout of central Paris still directly echoes his designs.
The renovation period lasted from 1853-1870, which would put PLZA in roughly the same timeframe as PLA; the Meiji Restoration (also called the Meiji Renovation, ironically) began in 1868.
However, the aesthetics they've chosen for the announcement trailer are giving me pause. Though the drafting/sketching portion certainly has an old-timey feel to it, the use of a holographic, wireframe style to show the city feels markedly futuristic. In addition, one of the humans we see (the woman sitting at a table next to a Klefki) appears to be using a smartphone. Whether or not we're gonna have another Arc Phone situation has yet to be seen.
This could just be a way of expressing "here's what Lumiose is PLANNED to look like far in the future, and this game is going to be focused on building towards that future." As there was a "Not actual gameplay footage" disclaimer at the beginning there, we can assume that nothing shown in the trailer is necessarily going to appear in-game – tho I'd imagine at least some of the models are going to be utilized (two birds, one stone).
With how Pokémon has played around with ancient/futuristic dichotomies (Unova, Paldea) and time travel (Alola, Hisui, and…many others tbh) in the past, though, it'd be interesting if PLZA wound up being a futuristic isekai to complement the distant-past adventure of PLA.
All that said, if PLZA is set in the past: We are all but certainly going to see young (or at least younger) AZ.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Very interested in this logo! Presumably it's comparable to that of the Galaxy Team, though unlike that one, it doesn't share much resemblance to the logo of its region's future evil team (Team Flare). The most similar organization logo we've seen thus far would be that of the Aether Foundation.
Tumblr media
The only theory I have at present is that it could potentially be related to Diancie, which was first introduced in Kalos. The logo could be a stylized version of the incomplete ring & glittering gem around its neck.
Tumblr media
Adjacent to that: I get the feeling that the Anistar City Sundial is going to have some level of importance to the plot. In XY, the Sundial allows the player to upgrade their Mega Ring + locate more Mega Stones throughout the region. As the Mega Evolution symbol was prominently displayed at the end of the presentation, we may get to learn some more about it and its origins – especially that bit about how it supposedly descended from space.
Other assorted notes:
We may get to see Camphrier Town – or, at least, Shabboneau Castle – during its heyday!
The A in PLZA's logo shares a similar construction to the marking on Xerneas' chest. It also has a plantlike pattern on it, which would connect to Xerneas' ability to induce life/growth…or it could be interpreted as a veinlike pattern, which would connect to Yveltal's design. It could also be completely unrelated to the Aura Trio lmao
I want to see Emmet so bad. Put both of those muppets in situations. Also I want double battles back please I'm begging and pleading stop making me fight 3+ enemies with only one Pokémon on my side–

Calling the Legends ZA starters:
well, the final evolutions, since they will hopefully get a makeover.
Grass: Serperior
Fire: Blaziken
Water: Empoleon
Reasonings below, if you care to discuss.
Legends Arceus followed the theme of Japanese military positions. We only know that ZA is going to be futuristic (reurbanization plan) Kalos (France). So while the theme could focus on what would be going on in a futuristic city, I'm going to lean into the France aspect. The theme I am going with here is national symbols.
Besides, I think these 3 are just the Frenchest looking pokemon.
Serperior
We may be going to the future, but don't think we will leave behind the fashion. Imagine how fancy they can make this already fancy looking Pokemon. A lovely grass dress, their design could already be altered into some fleur-de-lis things. We could add the blue remembrance poppy there too, or perhaps make her look like the Goddess of Liberty. I think even if we forget France and focus on the city, Serperior will be here for the fashion. For the girls, the gays, the theys, and Coleman.
Blaziken
I will die on this hill. You can all come back and laugh at me when they make Charmander the fire starter because of Mega Charizard Z. But by golly, the national animal of France is a rooster. You have to use the chicken. Bonus points if you make Blaziken a Joan of Arc looking figure. Because. Ya know.
Empoleon
If Serperior doesn't get the fleur-de-lis, then Empoleon's trident headpiece could easily turn into that. Or even the emblem of frace, a gold funky thing with an axe on top. Axehead Empoleon would be very cool. There is also the Napoleon thing. Almost have to at that point.

Yes, I know what day it is. No, this isn't a joke post.
I was inspired to attempt designing a Mega Mew. It turned out to be a lot of fun, thinking about what would make sense. Now, this is my first concept, so any and all parts of it are open to reworking, but I like this enough to show and explain my process!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I'll go in-depth about my choices below, but I'll warn there's potential religious implication--I kinda leaned into a connection to Arceus, but I don't know how much it counts as religion. It's mostly just the canon lore with a sprinkling of widely accepted head-canons and theories. (Religion may play more of a role if I decide to add this Mega to my story.)
As a disclaimer, this is all just for my own fun and I'm not claiming it to be canon in the slightest. I just felt like it would be more fun to weave the canon into it. :)
Without further ado, on with the word wall!
The Type: Psychic/Fairy--Connected with the choice of the chest decoration/gem. A few Pokedex entries state that Mew will only appear to those who are "pure of heart". Mega evolution is said to happen when the Pokemon has a strong bond with the trainer. Considering that, for a trainer to have SEEN a Mew, let alone catch it and have a bond strong enough to Mega evolve would be, in my humble opinion, the ultimate feat for a trainer. So I wanted to put in a symbolic representation of Mew opening its heart, showcasing its full trust in its trainer. It's also the center of Mew's powers, thus the wispy ribbony things. I felt that the Fairy type best fits with the whole bond thing. (The mischievous side of fairies also fits Mew, but maybe not so much in its Mega form, as I'll explain below.)
Body Shape/The Crown: It's probably obvious that I leaned into Mega Mewtwo Y for the general shape, and the head crest thing. But I took the crest in a different direction--As a connection to Arceus. This is where potential religion comes in, but again, it's mostly just canon Pokemon lore. Within the lore, Arceus is considered to be the first Pokemon/being. Mew is widely accepted to be among the first Pokemon created by Arceus, and many see Mew as the one to create the rest of Pokemon life. (Barring the Creation Trio and possibly the Lake Spirits--I don't know where the latter stand in the general lore.) So I took it in the direction of Mew being an Heir, giving it a crest that resembles both Arceus' head shape and a crown. In a way, I feel this Mega could also count as an Origin form (or a peek at it), if we were to see the Creation Trio and Mew as direct siblings. (Megas are theorized to be them tapping into their primal power, so I think it works.) If there is a reason other than Mega Mewtwo Y for the body, it would be that Mew is more "mature", and takes on a more grown-up and "regal" appearance.
The Colors: The main body of course is Mew's natural body color, while the white (gold on the shiny) accents are taken from Arceus. The purple is meant to be an "overflow stain" of its Psychic power, but also bleeds into...
A Connection to Mewtwo: Mewtwo was created to be the worlds most powerful Pokemon, and as such it makes sense to me that Mew's Mega form would be brought into the mix. For normal Mewtwo it mostly shows in the colors (although the chest bump could be a smaller-scale version of the heart gem), but where it really shows is in Mewtwo's Y form. Again, tapping into its primal power, but taking a slightly altered form.
HOO boy! HUGE thank you to anyone who read all that! This has been a very fun project! ^w^

Which Digimon would Hazbin Hotel Characters Have? ((Potential Spoilers))
Tumblr media Tumblr media
((Well, you guys asked for it and here I am to deliver. Side note, I love how there's already crossover fan art about this topic. Ya'll artists work fast dood. Anyway, as usual, unless specified otherwise, everyone gets a rookie level Digimon and they work their way up to at least Mega. Also, I'll try to prevent duplicates as much as possible. Fortunately, there's not too many characters to work with right now, so it shouldn't be too much of an issue. Finally, if you have ideas of your own, feel free to let me know.
Tumblr media
Starting things off with the show's main character, Charlie Morningstar. And considering her relationship with both Razzle and Dazzle, I can hear strong arguments for Dracomon. Not only does Dracomon have 2 different main Digivolution lines, one with Thuraiyadramon as its mega and the other with Breakdramon, but also the fact that Dracomon are known to be ferocious, but show their gentle side toward those they trust like how Razzle and Dazzle are known to be a little mischievous but very loyal to Charlie and her companions. That being said, I might switch Breakdramon's mega form out with Examon since Breakdramon's known for going on rampages, causing destruction wherever it goes and Examon is a loyal Digimon Knight. That and for the past while, I can't help but imagine a giant Digimon like Examon or Tyrannomon simply lowering its head so Charlie and feed it and pet it. That image is adorable to me and is now on my list of reasons why I wish I could draw.
Tumblr media
Next is Charlie's girlfriend, Vaggie, and I think Morphomon would suit her pretty well. Morphomon's carefree personality could mesh well with Vaggie's more serious and reserved self, being the only other person beside Charlie she can be open with and let her guard down around. Considering that Morphomon is also known for being cautious around others, needing to touch them first in order to determine if they're safe to be around, they can relate to each other. Not only that but it could also be a symbol of her relationship with Charlie during Season 1 of the show thanks to its power of illusion, since Vaggie hid the fact that she was a former demon exterminator throughout their whole relationship thus resulting in Charlie questioning if their whole relationship was built on lies despite believing that they shared everything they knew about each other. As for whether to let it keep its main evolution line or switch it to Hudiemon is up for debate.
Tumblr media
Now onto my personal favorite character in the series so far, Alastor. And honestly, I think I have the perfect Digimon line for him, starting off with the Rookie being Dracmon. Dracmon are known for being the most mischievous Digimon causing pranks throughout the Dark Area. Granted, I don't see Alastor being a prankster, I do see him enjoying a bit of mayhem and could relate to Dracmon's ability to keeping a smile on his face and its ability to control others by having them look into the eyes on their hands could prove useful for some underhanded tactics. For champion, I have Bakemon for 2 reasons. 1, Bakemon's main attack, Hell's hand, which literally drag its victims to hell, like Alastor capturing souls to be forever tormented in whatever radio pocket dimension he has and 2, Bakemon are known for completely destroying any computer system it possesses. I think you know where this is going. For ultimate, we have Pumpkinmon. Granted not too much of a connection there outside of its origin being based on a rumor of it being a virus crafted on Halloween night, yet is completely docile toward others, which could link to Alastor's mysterious reputation as one of the most devious overlords in Hell, but for some reason, is willing to help Charlie with her goals. Finally we have the mega form being Noblepumpkinmon which fits Alastor to a T. It's a neutral Digimon who only wants to put a smile on other people's faces, it's both cheerful and mischievous, and just look at it.
Tumblr media
Tell me this doesn't just scream Alastor. I dare you dood.
Tumblr media
Now honestly, Angel Dust was hard for me to figure out. At best, I can think of is maybe Vemmon mainly due to it being an artificial Digimon programmed to do one thing and one thing only by its creator only to turn against said creator when it became powerful enough, like how Valentino owns Angel Dusts soul and makes him star in his films for long, tedious hours and is currently showing signs of defiance as shown when he got in between him and Niffty. That and Vemmon's name being taken from "Venom", anyone who watched the show knows what I'm talking about there, and Vemmon has the ability to turn its victims into Oinkmon and Angel Dust happens to have a pig for a pet named Fat Nuggets. Its champion form, Snatchmon still works, but its ultimate and mega forms are the ones I have problems with, unless if we see Angel Dust reaching his breaking point and pulling a huge crash out in Season 2 or 3. For now, I'm switching the ultimate form to Master Tyrannomon due to it being a Digimon known for its battle scars, and while Angel Dust may not have any physical scars (that we know about), he certainly have some mental ones. In fact, it would be interesting to see Master Tyrannomon as a physical representation of all the emotional scars Angel Dust has gotten from being under Valentino's thumb. Finally, the mega form would be Gaiomon, which I think is a neat way of showing Angel Dust being "reborn" and overcoming his situation.
Tumblr media
Husk was also tricky to figure out. At first I wanted to given him a Demidevimon to represent him working for Alastor, but I don't think it would fit him personality wise. So instead, I'm giving him a Gotsumon to start, who are known for being cheerful, but at the same time can be a bit of a bully, which I think is more fitting for Husk's more blunt and grumpy personality. That and he's a bartender so chances are an "on the rocks" pun would be worked in somehow. I can't think of one right now, but you know. Now Deputymon might seem a bit odd at first until you recall that both it and Husk love gambling. For the ultimate, I'm giving him Reapmon because of how it looks, the theory about it being a demon lord digimon in disguise, and how it's an all knowledgeable Digimon willing to give up info in exchange for a price, which may seem more on Alastor's Ally, but Alastor isn't the only one binding people via deals. And the mega form will be Beelzemon because out of the mega forms I see available for this line, he's the most fitting.
Tumblr media
Now we move on to Niffty, the little maid demon that stabbed Adam to death in the season finale. And no, I'm not going to give her any of the maid sisters as I don't think any of them would suit her. Instead I'm giving her a Gumdramon for 2 reasons. 1, Gumdramon are mischevious Digimon that loves to show off in dangerous situations, which would mesh well with Niffty's somewhat unhinged personality (as long as Gumdramon doesn't make a mess everywhere) and 2, Gumdramon's hidden potential as it can warp Digivolve into its mega, Arresterdramon. Considering the current theories about Niffty being an unknown overlord, it would be interesting to see her unlock that warp Digivolution somehow.
Tumblr media
Next up, Lucifer and I have 2 different digimon lines in mind for him. First is obviously Lucemon due to the name, them being the rulers of Hell and Dark Web and their not-so-great relationship with heaven. Lucemon's idea to create a new world might not be good in the long run, but I'll wait until the show gets longer before fully deciding that. Though instead of the Shadowlord Mode, I'm sticking him with its X-Antibody form. The other being Toy Agumon due to his creativity, but I can't think of anything pass that as of right now, so if you have any ideas, please let me know.
Tumblr media
Now we have Sir Pentious and you already know he's going to get a line with Digitamamon being the Ultimate stage. And I do like the idea of Minervamon being the Mega Form showing Sir Pentious's redemption after some build up of Digitamamon potentially becoming either Devitamon or Titamon if not raised properly or if Sir Pentious still had the idea of some form of revenge in the back of his head. As for the rookie form, sadly, there aren't many snake like Digimon to my surprise so I guess the main form, Goburimon would work for now.
Tumblr media
Up next is Cherri Bomb and like Sir Pentious, her Digimon line is a little obvious with the Champion form being BomberNanimon. Whether it starts as Hagurumon or Impmon, I'll leave that up for debate. Keeping with the bomb theme, Giromon can become the ultimate form, and I guess we can make Chaosdramon the mega as its the only one in the line I can see that makes sense considering it's kind of a powerhouse that destroys everything around it, you know, like a bomb. Sadly, I only have enough time for one more today, but if ya'll enjoy this idea, I'll come back and make a Pt 2 of this. For now, let's end things off with another character that I really like and wish to see more of.
Tumblr media
As we've seen so far, Emily is practically heaven's version of Charlie as they have the same energetic and empathetic personality. That said, I'm going to give her a Digimon that might be on the nose starting off, but might also be more interesting later on. I'm giving her a Patamon to start off with. Why a Patamon instead of a Salamon? You'll find out if I ever make a Pt 2. If you haven't figured it out already. So yeah, we'll stick with the main line being Angemon, then Magna Angemon, then whichever holy Digimon that floats your boat... if Emily stays in heaven. Remember, Sera warned her that going against Heaven's guidelines would result in her becoming fallen, and if that happens, that's when the Digivolution line changes from the Angemon line to the Devimon line as it is rumored that Devimon are actually fallen Angemon.
((And that's the list as of right now. What did you guys think? Interesting enough for a Pt 2 in the future? Let me know and thanks for reading.))

Pokemon Legends: Z-A: What is Λ?
Tumblr media
Lo! It's a Λ! 
When you take the Z off of Z-A, you're left with Λ, or the Greek letter lambda. So what does this lambda mean? What is the Λ in Pokemon Legends: Z-A?
This Λ is most likely the symbol for the Infinity Energy coming from AZ's Ultimate Weapon.  Infinity Energy is the reoccurring power from Generation VI. It's sometimes created from the life energy of Pokemon, but not always. Some fans like BirdKeeperToby use the term to refer to the energy, power, or magic that Pokemon use in general.
In the real world, Λ is tied up in all sorts of equations of radiation and light, so it fits perfectly with Infinity Energy.  The most powerful and prolific energy associated with Λ is dark energy.
Now, a disclaimer: I'm not a physicist, so I might get some of this wrong. I'll try my best to stick to the sources.
Albert Einstein used the letter Λ to symbolize the Cosmological Constant, a hidden factor in the universe that counteracted the force of gravity and kept the universe static, neither getting bigger or smaller.  Except, he miscalculated.  The universe wasn't just expanding, the expansion was accelerating.  (Source: LiveScience)
Tumblr media

In the 1990's, scientists named the hidden force dark energy.  It's the hidden factor that is pushing against gravity, causing the universe to expand.  And while it's invisible to the eye, and accelerating too far to access, some scientists believe that in billions of years the expansion could rip apart the universe. (Source: LiveScience)
It feels like a very anime idea, like something from Gurren Lagann. An overload of crazy, accelerating energy (three-fourths of the universe!) that expands the universe beyond its limitations.  We could liken dark energy to the untapped potential of Pokemon. Pokemon have special powers and abilities, but in certain circumstances, they can unlock a special potential within them that allows them to evolve their limits.
Tumblr media
Mega Stones were created when the blast from the Ultimate Weapon irradiated normal evolutionary stones with Infinity Energy. When a Pokemon Mega Evolves, it reveals within them a potential that was hitherto unknown, energy that lets them expand beyond their limits, just like dark energy expands the universe past the force of gravity.
Of course, there are other things that Λ can symbolize.  Lowercase lambda (λ) symbolizes half-life, and radiation is tied closely with Pokemon evolution itself.  The Mega Stones were "irradiated" with Infinity Energy.  λ is also used to symbolize wavelengths on the electromagnetic spectrum, including light, which works well with Lumiose City's Prism Tower.  (Wikipedia) Lumiose City is after all, based on the Paris, the City of Lights.
While I find Dark Energy the most exciting explanation for the Λ on the cover of Legends: Z-A, our big green Λ probably incorporates multiple concepts of energy and light into the idea of Infinity Energy.  Infinity Energy is the connective tissue of Generation VI, so it's very likely that it will appear in Legends: Z-A again.  While this doesn't tell us much about the game itself, it might give us an idea why GameFreak used the letter Λ.

the current ideas i have for character teams in my utena pokemon au:
general thoughts i put into making these:
1. i tried to give the characters pokemon i think they'd genuinely be fond of and want to use, and less so pokemon that are symbolic of things about said character (to an extent. nanami's are kind of questionable. but i did avoid color-coding) the exceptions to this rule are akio and half of anthy's team, because i think it makes sense for them.
2. it did not start out as something i did on purpose but anthy and akio are the only two with a full team of six while everyone else has three, and i think that works well.
utena
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
i put a cubone on here originally but i thought that was a bid morbid. anyway yeah kirlia from the ralts dios/akio gave her, dewott for sword-fighting (shell-fighting?) and scorbunny because it's a little soccer player and would love playing sports with her :)
anthy
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
the first three are the pokemon she's "supposed" to have. the rose bride pokemon if you will. the last three are her silly little guys. one i unfortunately did not have room to add is a torchic nicknamed nanami, but i think anthy does have more pokemon than just the ones on her team (like the rest of her twenty goomy hiding in the pencil box)
akio
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
okay so mega gallade is literally just dios as a pokemon so i had to give it to him. i'm thinking that it can't mega evolve anymore as part of akio losing the power he once had and all that. there is something in the lore about a strong bond being required for mega evolution too, so my headcanon for why, is that his gallade just fucking hates his guts because he sucks. coballion is a legendary pokemon, the leader of the swords of justice trio and another of dios' pokemon. minior is a meteor to go with his whole "i like space" facade and the last three are the evolved forms of anthy's pokemon
nanami
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
kind of a joke team, i just put pokemon based on various animals that torment her. and egg
wakaba
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
some cute normal types for wakaba is maybe a little on the nose but it fits. wooloo is a reference to her sheep mugs. i saw fanart of wakaba with a chikorita once (i think i have reblogged it) and it's really so perfect. i wanted her to have a grass type for the whole onion thing anyway. there are honestly so many pokemon that fit wakaba it was hard to pick just three

i care IMMENSELY and need to know the teams the gyms the story and all of it my hands are open my listening ears are on please please please 🤲🏻
kendy, kendy, kendy!! sorry, that this took so long it has been an absolutely wildly busy/burnt out point in my life!!!
@reveluving idk if you’re a big pkmn girly, but i feel like you would love this too 👉🏾👈🏾
i actually made teams for like 8 characters for my batman fics so let me know if you want to see another one for my damian/oc wip. 🥺
for jason and my self-ship oc, bella
Tumblr media
jason would be a dark-type gym leader by day, and definitely the leader of a violent criminal organization by night.
but what he’s doing isn’t too bad! he controls nightclubs, underground battling rings, and casinos like the ones in the game. just like in canon though, he never lets anybody harm children and he’ll hunt down any trainers in his area that are found to be abusive.
he’s tall, tough and scary but he’s sweet to his pokémon. if a kid loses to him at the gym, he won’t even take the prize money, he’ll just buy them ice cream! if teenagers or anyone older loses to his gym, he’ll just donate the prize money to local homeless shelters and places that house less fortunate children and pokémon. (not like he needs it with all of the money he makes.)
i will leave whether or not he kills people to how dark you interpret the universe to be; he would never harm a pokémon, though. anybody else remember when lance straight up murdered a team rocket member in gold/silver?
anyway this is his team!!
Tumblr media
shiny duskull; it’s less of a pokémon he uses for battling and more just his constant companion. it’s his partner, despite being a ghost type because it’s red, masked, represents the grim reaper/death, and is a symbol of scared, crying children.
houndoom: also carries the imagery of death/hell, but it represents and his love for dogs, especially ace the bat-hound!
scrafty: it’s based on street fashion and being a delinquent, rebellious hoodlum, which fits pretty well given jason’s upbringing. duskull is his partner, but scraggy was probably the first pokémon he had.
absol: it’s a protector especially to children but is misunderstood constantly because people think it’s a bad omen of destruction, which reminds me of his reputation :(
honchcrow: it’s a mob boss, there’s not much else to say.
bisharp: wears metallic red armor and the pokédex calls it ruthless and unchanging in expression when it hunts and kills. it also usually has an army of smaller pokémon that do a lot of fighting and cutting down for it.
Tumblr media
my oc isabella works at a bookstore, which is where her romance with jason blossoms. she’s down to earth and represents the every day people of gotham in a way that the batfamily can’t, so she would definitely be a normal type trainer; similar to how lenora in bw runs her normal-type gym out of a library in the back of a museum.
the bookstore however wouldn’t be a certified gym by the league, rather it’s more of a training space for people who want to research and practice more - she’d probably limit herself to one battle a day at the very end of her shift as a way to destress and if you win, you can get any book of your choosing for free!
jason won several times and still paid ‘as a tip’ when they first met, just so she would like him more. When she tried to return it, he only agreed to take it back if he could use it to take her on a date :(
here’s her team:
Tumblr media
maushold: while in my actual stories, she’s comically afraid of mice, she and jason end up having a set of twins girls! plus maushold is just an inside joke with my sister who helps me develop a lot of my batman fanfiction ideas. 🥰
lopunny: because of the way it looks, people forget that lopunny can kick your ass. which is the same as isabella, who isn’t a trained fighter, but could absolutely sock you out. plus, especially with its mega evolution, lopunny takes a lot of inspiration from dancing, and isabella represents the latin side of my heritage, by being a bachatera/salsera! again, this is a love letter to my sister who’s 2nd fav is buneary!
eevee: she’s adaptable! plus, like jason, she loves puppies!
blissey: for her calming, motherly influence! (if trainers were allowed to 7 pokemon, i’d give her a kangaskhan for this too!)
cyclizar: come on. you can’t marry jason todd, without loving motorcycle rides. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
noctowl: her partner! represents her love for books and she’s a night owl, like everyone in gotham!

#354. Banette (Mega)
Tumblr media
Mega Evolution increases its vindictiveness, and the cursing power that was held back by its zipper comes spilling out.
Colour and symbol charts can be found here.
Tumblr media
A note on colours: in my experience, floss looks different irl than in online pattern makers. If you think a different colour will work better, go with your gut!

Steven Stone headcanons because he's one of my favorite characters
Tumblr media
-He's really good at old timey electroswing dances, and shit at any other ones. Probably dances like this with Wallace
-If he and Wallace ever got married, he'd probably propose with a rose quartz ring because they symbolize love and compassion
-I like to believe that he's had his metagross ever since he was a kid. In the games, he also mentions how his favorite pokemon is beldum. It'd be cute to think of him getting his metagross as a beldum, as well as it being his first pokemon
-No, but the games go out of their way to talk about how attractive he is (especially team magma and team aqua). He's aware of all of it, but chooses to ignore it. Does get awkward or flustered anytime someone flirts with him
-He can and will go on four hour tangents talking about his favorite rocks (he literally talked to deoxys about a cool rock I can't with him-)
-Owns metagross shorts. In fact, change his summer outfit in masters to wear metagross shorts, and we're all good
-This isn't really a headcanon, but masters mentions how he likes Hoenn Rangers (pkmn version of power rangers) and I like the idea of him being a super hero comic nerd
-Considering the fact that he goes and hands out rocks to people, he is most likely the one that helped Wally find a dawn stone and a moon stone to evolve his gallade and delcatty
-Sits on his Metagross doing whatever (reading, messing with his rocks, sleeping) and Metagross just kinda lets it happen
-His favorite candy is rock candy
-When he found out what Terra stones where, he put Wallace in charge of being Champion for like 6 months as he raced his way to Area Zero
Tumblr media
-Has autism with stones being his special interest (idk if it's real, but I can't get over the line above)
-Ironically, he doesn't like rock music. He heard it once and never again
-Really enjoys art museums and all that kind of stuff, especially statues. Him and Cynthia go together anytime one of them visits
-Has lickded at least 5 rocks and has attempted to eat at least 1
-Both cares about neatness and doesn't care. When in caves, he won't care about getting his clothes dirty, but doesn't like getting messy outside of that
-Anime only: Has a soft spot for Maryn and Alain, and let's them get away with more than they should
-Enjoys boardgames a lot. In my champion roommate au, I can imagine Iris and Blue trying to teach Steven how to play Mario Kart or something, and he just sucks ass at it. But he's really good at Minecraft for some reason. Spends a lot of times in the game mining
-Really good friendswith Professor Sycamore and they talk about mega evolution and rocks together
-He sleeps in really soft pajamas and is sometimes a nerd about them. He has Skarmory, Cadilly, and Aggron onsies, and a pajama top with beldum patterns on it. Casual clothes would be T-shirts with words like, "Sinnoh Rocks!" and then having a lot of evolutionary stones for the print pattern or something like that
-Aggron's dex entry mentions how they plant trees and soil to keep their mountains looking nice. Steven saw his Aggron doing this, and started doing a bit of gardening himself
-Wallace does, in fact, use the nickname "Silver-haired dreamboat" for him and Steven looks like this anytime that happens

Since you asked me. Who do you think will be in the Pokemon Legends Z-A starter line-up?
That's something that has been living in my mind rent free for the past few days.
It took me a while to have my guesses, but after so many videos and many things I researched, I have my own set of ideas.
(there are possible spoilers here below)
First things first, I want to say that, although it is possible that the final starters have new regional forms, it is equally, if not more, probably that the starters will instead have mega evolutions. Mega evolution is the most beloved mechanic and many people wanted more starters (besides Hoeen and Kanto) to get megas.
And since it has been rumored that Jynx will get a mega due to audio files found in pokemon home, probably more pokemon will be getting new megas.
The megas instead of regional forms makes so that the starters for Legends-Z are none else than... the regular Kalos starters.
Considering this is probably set after Legends Arceus, it is very possible that Lumiose reasearchers already have the means of capturing their own region starters.
Besides, Delphox and Chesnaught deserve some more attention. And, it was always a bit ironic the region of megas didn't have starters with one.
But, in case we have starters from other regions, my assumptions are.
Grass Starter: Snivy. I am 99% sure that, if we have starters from other regions, Snivy will be the grass one. Snivy was inspired by European Empires (like Emboar was inspired by Chinese and Samurott by japan), the fleur-de-lis and it is a pure grass type in it's final form. It can both get a regional form or mega with a secondary Dragon type.
Water type: Piplup. Besides being one of the most beloved water starters, Empoleon was inspired by Napoleon. Gamefreak would be fumbling bad. Since Empoleon already has two types, and is already very French, I think it would work best with a mega.
Fire Types
Torchic: Simple, the rooster is the symbol animal of France. Besides, since the starters will probably have megas instead of regional forms, having one of the starters with a known mega would probably be good advertisement for the game. (Mega Blaziken fans would be interested in buying the game and checking new evos).
Litten: Litten is a starter that has basically nothing to him. No mega, no gigantamax and so on... (just a Z-move, but, people don't care much about it). Since he basically has no fun gimmick. Game Freak could give him a new fun mega! They probably would keep his type, though...
Scorbunny: It turns out that soccer is really important to France. Besides, since he is pure fire, a secondary type could also help him out. I can imagine a Fire/Fairy mega or regional form with a magician theme (France has magicians, and magicians use rabbits for their tricks).
Last, but not least, wanted to state that this pokemon game is probably inspired by a renovation Paris went through beween 1852 and 1870. So, there might be something related to that period.
But, deep down, none of us can be sure of what starter we are going to have. All we can do is... wait and see...
