Stinky pods
The teacher warned the line of little tykes not to step on the stinky fruit. In that moment, I remembered that the ginkgo drops a smelly residue. It seems so unseasonable. By January, shouldn’t these have fallen off and washed away?

Platonic request! Muichiro x fem! kinoe ranked reader. I'd like some headcanons of how their friendship came to be and what is it like to be friends with Muichiro. But it's a Yuichiro survives scenario kind of thing so Muichiro never lost his memories and maintains a softer personallity. Please and I wish you a good day/night.
Muichiro's Friend
summary: how did the friendship form between the female kinoe and the mist hashira? cw: none pairings: Platonic Muichiro x reader additional tags: no manga spoilers. muichiro headcanon. fluff. very very slight angst to remind you that you both are demon slayers. reader gets comforted tho. soft muichiro. yuichiro will appear a few times. gingko is jealous word count: 870
Tumblr media
FIRST MEETING
Demon slayers ranked Kinoe would occasionally go on missions together with the hashira. For example; if two hashiras were needed, but only one was available, a Kinoe would be called instead. So you were assigned a mission with Muichiro, and you two managed to get along splendidly. Though, the mission was too difficult for you, and you ended up getting wounded. So worried Muichiro stayed with you at the butterfly mansion till you got better, which formed a bond between you.
At first, Ginkgo didn't like you, you did nothing wrong but it was just her jealous nature. She thought you were wasting his time by making him look at for you when injured. At times where Gingko insult you, Muichiro would defend you. Don't worry, because Ginkgo loves Muichiro, so seeing that you make him happy she eventually warms up to you.
Of course, being friends with Muichirou means being friends with his twin. You were surprised by how polar opposites they were, but you tried your best to get along with Yuichiro for Mui's sake. You being friends with Muichiro and looking out for him, made him subconsciously form a soft spot for you. He loves his brother so much, so he will respect you out of appreciation for being there for his brother. Actually, at times where he could not be there for Muichiro, he finally feels at ease that someone else was.
The first time you and Yuichiro met was when you were still wounded at the butterfly mansion. Muichiro was super excited to introduce his brother you and you to his brother. He dragged Yuichiro along to make paper crafts like origami and airplane. Muichiro thought that if you did an activity together you'd get along. Which you did! Kind of, Yuichiro is a difficult boy but it definitely was better than anyone else who tried to befriend him.
COMFORT
Being a demon slayer was difficult, mentally. At times where you felt drained, Muichiro would be there for you. If you failed a mission, he would hug you and pat your back. If you were injured, he would keep you company. If it happened while he was on a mission he would make Gingko send you origami gifts he made for you. If anything made you feel down, Muichiro's way of comforting you would be to distract you. He would sometimes drag his brother along too. His ideas for activities are very cute and childish; he would take you to pick flowers at the meadow, or push you on the swings. As long as your back to your usual happy self.
The first time Yuichiro showed care for you and stopped with his sassy remarks was when you were upset. He gave you a pat on the back and didn't say much honestly.
As a friend, Muichiro is pretty affectionate. I feel like he would be very touchy by always giving you hugs. I can see him with multiple love languages; acts of service, quality time and physical touch.
QUALITY TIME
The Hashira are not the most busy people. Sometimes they wouldn't be sent out to a mission for days. The reason for this is because for there to be a Hashira level mission, the other ranks would have to go first before the Hashira arrive. Instead, when they're not on missions they secure the base of the Ubuyashiki state, train or stuff like that. So their free time isn't as limited as people assume. How Muichirou likes to spend his time(other than training) is doing anything relaxing. Whether it would be to look at the clouds or making origami. But he does enjoy company, so he would invite you everytime no matter what he's doing. He loves to spend time with his loved ones and cherishes every moment with you.
ACTS OF SERVICE
Muichiro is soft, so he would do anything he feels like you need. He would ask his brother to help him bake something for you, or make you warm soup when you get back tired from missions. He would do things like peel your apples, or any type of fruits. When you're sick, that's when this language shows a lot. He'd literally do ANYTHING. I feel like since Muichiro's mother died of illness, when someone that he loves his sick he gets super worried and extra affectionate. Making sure that you get better.
PHYSICAL TOUCH
Muichiro does it without realizing it tbh. He would never do anything that you don't want, but if you're okay with it he would rest his elbow on you or something. His fear of someone else slipping away might not show even to him, but it's still there subconsciously. A voice in the back of his head telling him to get as close to you as possible to make sure you're always there with him, safe and protected. He hugs you because he likes the comfort of knowing his friend is still there. If there was danger nearby, whether it would be a criminal on the busy street or a demon he would always put an arm Infront of you, as if to shield you. Muichiro is REALLY protective of his friends, so it always terrifies him to think that you're in danger.
In conclusion, Muichiro's friendship is a cute warm one full of laughter.

Mother Dearest
Warning: Stepcest, suggestive content, female reader
Tumblr media
"Oh Satoru, your family's having a party today?"
The white haired boy looked up from his phone to Suguru and then to the compound gates a few hundred metres away. His crystal sky eyes stared at the rows of polished black cars parked around. He hummed ignoring the melting ice cream in his hand. No one told him anything about a party, he snorted, maybe that was their plan.
"Dunno, let's go check it out."
When he was close enough, Satoru recognised the guards standing at the door and cringed. Damn, the old cow was visiting today? The white haired boy considered leaving but he looked into the house and saw you standing there. With the cutest and brightest smile ever. His expression softened and Satoru grabbed Suguru's hand. What were you smiling about?
"I'm back~!", he sung unfazed by the disgusted look the Gojo matriarch was giving him.
Crystal eyes watched as you beamed at him and slowly make your way down the stairs, "Satoru, welcome back! Suguru-kun, you're back again!", the two boys grinned cheekily while you ruffled their hair.
"What's the occasion today?", Satoru mooed towards the stunned old woman and you gasp instantly pinching his cheek, "Naughty! You better apologise to your grandmother!"
Huffing, the Gojo matriarch made her way down, "Never mind the bastard boy dear, you just take care of yourself from now on. Why don't I send over a few more servants to help around?"
You smiled softly, "Oh you needn't to worry about me, Mother. We have plenty of hands around and I still have a few months-", "Nonsense! You have be mindful that the Gojo prince and princess is growing inside you right now!", the woman snapped.
The smile on Satoru's face was wiped off and Suguru turned to the boy with concern, "What?"
Glancing over the matriarch sneered, "My my, are you panicking now that the Gojo clan has no use for you? Prepare to pack up your bags, boy", she spat and you frowned trying to diffuse the tension.
Satoru couldn't hear anything, not the old woman blabbering, nor your sweet voice defending him, or Suguru trying to bring him back. All he knew was that everything he was working for was collapsing, disintegrating because you just had to bow down to the cow's pressure.
Finally, the matriarch ended her visit and you let out a sigh of relief. She was a fierce and intense woman, and had been so since her youth. You could only praise the gods that she acknowledged you as her daughter in-law. Many many years ago, your family accepted a marriage proposal from the Gojo clan. You were the fourth option, all of the others had ran away because of this woman. But somehow fate would have her pleased with you, and the marriage proceeded with clans across the jujutsu world attending the ceremony.
Smiling you turned to the frozen boy, "Satoru?", he blinked returning to reality, "Y-Yeah?"
Taking his shock as worry for himself, you approached him and caressed his cheek, "Don't listen to her, Toru. You might not be my biological son, but you'll always be my little boy."
With that, you ushered them inside to try the sweets the matriarch had bought.
....
Inside Satoru's room, the two boys sat there silently. Suguru stared at his gloomy expression knowing that he was doing his best to not obliterate the compound.
"Sato-", "I had a plan", he said with terrifying calmness, "All she had to do was wait a few years for me...and then we'd be together. I even helped, feeding her all of those Gingko Biloba to stop her from getting pregnant."
He turned to her with a blue flame in his eyes, "She just had to wait a little bit more, for me to make her mine."
....
Unaware of the terror brewing in your own home, you sat in the drawing room while your head maid ran around already thinking about labour day. You looked down at your belly and began stroking it, thinking of the tiny tiny babies growing inside. You were truly blessed to have twins, a boy and girl.
However your thoughts kept returning to Satoru. You sighed wondering how long he had to deal with the discrimination from the clan for being illegitimate. Born from a fling when his father was merely a teenager and fancied one of the pretty maids. She fell pregnant and was immediately taken away. Satoru and his mother lived quietly under supervision, raised as the spare heir. That was until his mother collapsed, slowly dying since the beginning of Satoru's complicated birth.
You only got to know this secret after having heard your husband and the matriarch argue about what to do with the child. Neither of them wanted to take the child in, neither of them wanted to anything to do with the child, but they couldn't just abandon a potential heir.
"We will take the child in", you made yourself known and watched their faces paled.
Suddenly a pair of arms snaked around you from behind, "Good evening Madam Gojo, I suspect you and our children are doing well?"
You giggle turning back, "You suspect correct", the white haired man hummed and pecked your cheek before leaning down to your belly, "Hey, papa's home."
Your fingers found their place in his hair, a pair of ocean blue eyes stared up at you. Maybe your children will get his good genes, the same way Satoru did. They'll have ivory hair and blue eyes, and the same troublesome trait all Gojos seemed to have.
"What are you thinking about?", you squeaked as he pulled you into his lap, "W-Well I was just wondering whether the children would get your genes, like Satoru."
At the mention of his tainted past, the man sighed and pressed his lips against your neck, "Do you remember the promise I made to you back then?"
Your eyes softened as you whisper, "How could I forget?"
The night you found out about Satoru, you returned from bath only to find your husband seated on the guest couch with a glass of sake. He noticed you and stood up, prepared to hear how he had ruined everything.
But you merely answered, "The child has already gone through enough. I won't have him live poorly or endure your mother's wrath. He's your blood isn't he? So take responsibility for what you had done."
You thought that was the end but he pulled you in until your noses were touching, "Our marriage may not be one of romance, but you are my wife and the only woman I want by my side for the rest of my life. Only you can be the madam of this house, and only you will bear my heir."
A small laugh escape your figure and you cup his cheeks, "You think I feel threatened by him?", he hesitated to answer and you couldn't help but reward his efforts with a kiss, "You just worry about yourself."
"Y-hey what are you doing?!", the man grinned at how you just realised that he had stripped you down to the last thin robe of your kimono, "Come on, a little celebration wouldn't help~"
You tried to fight him. Ume would be coming soon to bring dinner. The doors weren't locked so anyone could come in. You still had a lot of work to do regarding the announcement of the pregnancy and hosting parties. The arguments fell deaf on his ears as the white haired man pinned you to the bed, slowly untying the final knot and scanning the curves of your body.
Both of you were unaware of the eyes watching you writhe against the bed, hair flowing around you like a halo. Unaware of the pumping hands matching the timing of your bouncing. Teeth ached as red marks began littering your body. Satoru bit his bottom lip as he was approaching the edge, Suguru was also geting there by the sound of his pants.
But maybe Satoru had been underestimating his opponent, because when he looked back, a pair of electric blue eyes stared at him intently. As if he was showing off to Satoru that it was his lips on your breasts, his thrust bringing you over the edge, and his children in your womb.
A wild grin grew on Satoru's face, he needed a new plan.
Tumblr media
That. That is the grin I imagine. Nah just kidding.
Hoped you enjoyed, Lovelies! And don't worry there will be a part two! ( ˘ ³˘)♥︎

"Ghostboy in Hisui" AU drabble ahead, my dear fellas. I just needed to get this Plotscorbunny out of my head. Basically, Volo has to take care of a very feverish Allister. This takes place before the fight with Lord Avalagg, by the way. That's why Zoey is still a Zorua in this. Here I go!
Drabble: The Merchant And The Sick Boy
It was a quiet day in Hisui. Allister had a solo mission in the Alabaster Icelands. Unfortunately, the shy and kindhearted ghostboy got sick. Volo found him as he lie unconsious in the snow. Zoey was snuggled up to him.
As soon as she noticed Volo, she growled at him. Volo knew that he had to take care of Allister. Everyone who cared about the little boy would slaughter him if he didn't. "Don't worry, girl! I'm going to help him!" Volo smiled awkwardly.
The blonde man picked up Allister and carried him to his camp. Allister's fever was alarming. The small boy was burning. 'I am not going to let you die yet. I'm the only one who is allowed to end your life.' Volo thought as he began to help Allister.
The merchant of the Gingko Guild removed Allister's mask. It was the first time for Volo to see the Ghost Type Gym Leader's adorable face. Volo used special herbs he got from a very far region to lower the eight years old boy's fever.
Zoey never left Allister's side. She still didn't trust Volo in the slightest, but she was clearly grateful that the man was helping her beloved Trainer. "Ngh." Allister finally stirred awake. "Thank Arceus!" Volo spoke up.
"Volo? What happened?" Allister asked. "I found you unconsious in the snow. You passed out as you had a very high fever." Volo explained. "You saved my life. Thank you." Allister said with a tired smile. His beautiful purple eyes were filled with warmth.
Zoey was relieved that her best friend felt much better. She cuddled closer to him. {I'm so incredible glad that you're alright, Alli!} The female Zorua couldn't surpress her tears of joy. "Thanks to Volo, Zoey. Without him, I'd be dead." 'Oh, Allister... you will be soon enough.' Volo thought.
The End

NSFW Adaman and Irida fic- Hello! I'm not sure if you're comfortable with this or not, so feel free to reject my request 💟 I'd like a little spicy fic where the reader (female, if possible) ends up in a threesome with Adaman and Irida, if that's not too much trouble! Thanks a lot for your hard work (I really enjoyed the last event!)
gruehgalibnsdkjfbse my bi mind is having an aneurysm like fhweufh when I saw both of the leaders I had a genuinely hard time who I'd rather be with. Like. Both. At the same time preferably.
Discord (16+) - Request Information 
Warning: This is NSFW so if you’re under the legal age or uncomfortable with content like this, please skip over this one!
NSFW Adaman and Irida: The Leaders and Their Pet
"So you agree?" Irida looked at you with expectant eyes and you scratched the back of your head. You had been called to her place in the bitter cold, the old man saying it was an important business meeting, and here you were. Irida and Adaman asking if you wanted to join them in a threesome.
Apparently they both liked you, far more than they should, and the main issue is they wouldn't want a clan feud over romance. So they decided, if you were willing, to share. It wasn't just a threesome they were offering...but it was a perk.
"I mean..." You said, looking between the two clan leaders. They were both near your age and extremely attractive. Not to mention everything you had gone through with them. You literally fought both their gods with them standing right by your side. You didn't just like the two clan leaders, you were in love with them.
"You don't have to, if you're uncomfortable with it." Adaman said, though the pained look in his eyes was telling. You took in a deep breath before finally looking at the two leaders.
"I uh never said that. I just...don't know how we'd go about it is all." You barely had experience with a single partner, now you were being thrown into a polyamorous relationship? A thruple, if you recalled correctly.
Irida beamed, looking at you and then grabbing one of your hands. She brought it up to her lips and kissed your knuckles, "Then let us lead...please."
Adaman nodded in agreement, and he too had a goofy grin on his face like a purloin that caught the rattata. "We don't have a crazy amount of experience, but at least in the diamond clan sexuality is looked at as a very...free spirited thing."
"It's a bit more closed off in the pearl clan but it doesn't mean it's forbidden." Irida nodded. You swore if both of them had experience in this, you might actually die and see Arceus way sooner than expected.
Adaman had come closer, wrapping his arm around your waist from behind and began peppering kisses alongside your neck. Right as Irida came up to kiss you, noises were heard from outside the home. Someone cleared their throat and Irida and Adaman took a step away from you and you tried fixing up your clothes as to not look suspecious.
One of the pearl clan members came inside and looked at the three of you, "Perfect, you're all here! We just had notice of a time space distortion appearing close to the village." He said and Irida sighed.
"However...perhaps this will have to wait for a different time it seems." She said as she was already gathering her team. You already knew you were being dragged into this battle and were silently thankful it was happening, battling was far easier to manage than relationships. You knew you would eventually have to deal with it again though. The thought both terrified and excited you.
It should've come as no surprise then when not even a week later the three of you had set up camp in the outskirts, away from anyone in either clans and far from the Gingko Guild's travel route.
Adaman laid flat on his back, his cock burrowing into you while Irida sat on his face. Her hands sprawled over his chest as she grinded her cunt on his mouth, whimpering at the sensation while you rode him to the best of your abilities.
You had no clue how long you two had been at this, maybe ten minutes, maybe an hour. Your legs burned from the exertion but the pleasure that coursed through you every single time you hilted back on Adaman had your eyes rolling back.
AFAB
Irida leaned closer, pulling you by the back of your neck and locking you into a kiss. You moaned into her mouth as her hand came up and rolled over your clit. It was just the right amount of stimulation you needed to be coming again on Adaman's cock.
Adaman groaned, pushing Irida slightly off him as he bucked up into your hips. "S-so tight." He murmured as Irida sat back down. The lewd slurping noises would've normally had you blushing bright red, but at the time you couldn't find it in you to care.
Irida bit down on your lip, opening it up so she could deepen the kiss. She let out a high pitched mewl as she came on Adaman's face, rolling her hips even more and Adaman had to hold her steady or else he'd really die from eating her out.
She was shaking and it wasn't long before you felt Adaman tense up, his warm seed filling your cunt up.
AMAB
Irida leaned forward, pulling you closer to her and locking your lips together. Her hand went over, running over your weeping cock and spreading some of the precum to help lube her up. You groaned into her mouth as she began working her cock at the same time you were riding Adaman.
You needed barely any stimulation to be coming on your stomach and her hand, gasping for breath against her lips. Your eyes half lidded as you tried to process what was going on.
The lewd slurping noises from Adaman still eating out Irida was all you needed to come back, blushing from the sound and wondering what she tasted like.
Irida let out a high pitched moan, coming on Adaman's face and rolling her hips against him. Adaman had to hold her up so she wouldn't completely collapse on his face and suffocate him.
You felt Adaman tense up underneath you, filling you with his seed as he groaned, finally coming to his peak.
Gender Neutral Ending
All three of you took a moment, breathing deeply and trying to catch your breath. Irida was the first to move, moving away from Adaman's face and actually laughing at his wet, but blissed out face. She grabbed one of the many towels and tossed it on Adaman's face and he shot her a glare before wiping his face off.
You were still saddled on his cock as he leaned up and grabbed your chin, giving you a short but passionate kiss. You could taste Irida on his lips and groaned into the kiss, wishing you could've gotten a more direct taste. Next time. You'd do that next time.
Irida slapped your thigh and got your attention, "You going to sit on him all day, or are we going to get cleaned up?" She teased and you rolled your eyes. You winced as you got up and off Adaman, your thighs burning from working muscles you never really used.
Adaman helped you and couldn't help but swallow a lump in his throat as he watched his seed drip out of your hole. Irida brought him back, smacking him with a towel.
"Well stop staring and start helping them." She said and Adaman stuck out his tongue.
"So demanding for someone falling apart on my tongue earlier." Adaman noted as he grabbed the towel and flipped you on your back. The towel was damp as it ran across your sex, cleaning up the cum that was seeping out.
"I should've suffocated you when I had the chance." Irida murmured, finishing cleaning herself off and she looked between you two. "Next time you should feel his mouth though; it has at least one good quality."
"Damn, gotta love this sweet pillow talk." You laughed, sitting back up and looking over at your two new lovers.
"Romance is our specialty." Adaman said with a shrug, pulling you back in for a kiss.
"So what's for dinner, by the way? Doubt Beni is willing to travel off in the middle of nowhere for room service." All three of you, despite the activities, were still looking pretty awake and your stomach was starting to feel empty. You looked between the two leaders who had sheepish grins on their faces.
"I'm making dinner, got it." You said, nodding your head solemnly, "You two are lucky I like you."

APROPOS OF NOTHING
90% OF PLANTS ARE HERMAPHRODITIC. THEY HAVE BOTH "MALE" AND "FEMALE" ANATOMY
UNLESS WE ARE TALKING ABOUT, SPECIFICALLY, GINGKO OR WILLOW, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS MALE AND FEMALE TREES

Just learned that ginkgo/gingko (both spellings technically accurate and accepted) trees are capable of transing their gender both completely and partially—completely meaning every flower producing female branch is switched to pollen producing male branches; partially meaning some branches are pollen bearing and some are flower bearing. So they can either binarily switch their reproduction method or have aspects of both. Also they’ve been around since the Permian period and have survived several mass extinction events. Also the female trees drop rotten fruit that smell exactly and strongly like vomit. The skin is what makes the fruit smell so bad and it’s eaten in China by boiling off the foul-smelling skin and making food with the fruit, so in China the smell doesn’t have such a negative perception (plus they don’t use the rotten fallen fruit obv they pick it from the tree when it’s ripe like an apple vs a rotten apple on the ground—something westerners don’t do). But also they’re technically extinct in the wild but it’s so widely planted in parks and cities across the world that they’re not endangered of going totally extinct.

Hi! I was wondering if you could retexture/recolor in NHS Gingko G47 and Butterflysims 67 (about the last one, I found a backup in the @sims2packrat blog, Digi's folder on Simfileshare)? And one more question, could you please also add to your Ade Luna retexture male version of this hair? Of course if you interested in this and if you have enough time for this! Love your works, they are favorite in game <3 Thanks in advance!
hi! yeah, i can do these 😊 seems like ade luna was remade/fixed by nykteia, who also made the male conversion. i will be redoing my female version of this hair as well!

I’m sure this point has been made many times before, but...
Look, we can bring ourselves to call a squirrel “female” even though a human can’t have sex with a squirrel.
We can call a shark “female” even though their reproduction works nothing like our own.
We can call a queen bee “female” even though bee genders are wildly different from mammalian genders.
We can call a gingko tree “female” even though they’re plants.
We can call a ship “female” even though they don’t reproduce and aren’t living.
We can call certain concepts “female” even though they don’t have a physical presence at all.
I see people object to using “woman” to refer to a transwoman because “it means a female adult human!” and I recognize... we’re okay applying “female” to all sorts of things without regard to any notion of biology or reproduction. So I’m pretty sure the part they object to is the “human”.

(All made using a neka.cc known as Guangyu colleagues)
🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡
Infancy :
Niesha was born in the Heart's Crag area of the Alabaster Icelands, to a single mother who lost her husband to a rampaging Alpha Mamoswine. Her mother was very wary of Pokémon afterwards and refused to let her near any of them while she was still around.
With the war between the Diamond and Pearl Clans, however, her mother did not make it. She was killed while she was running away from members of the Diamond Clan. However, it was not before she could hide her child from them.
Niesha had been hidden in a Gingko Guild member's cart, and she wasn't found until the member, Ginter, found her sleeping in one of the crates.
🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡
Childhood :
Niesha (mostly) grew up under her adoptive father's care, learning about the many items he sold. She had no interest in the trade, however.
Instead, she used the knowledge of said items to her advantage. People who had Pokémon that could evolve with certain items would be guided by this tiny girl over to where said items were being sold and get a small lecture over what said item would do. Funnily enough, this somewhat boosted sales.
She started to write notes about the items and kept them tucked in a bag until Ginter bought her a book made by traders from many regions away. To thank him, she made him a curry from the local, non-poisonous, flora, such as the leeks and berries.
It wouldn't be until she turned 11 where she would be separated from him, scared off by a younger Volo. He told her that members of the Diamond Clan were going to kill Ginter if they found him with her, since her mom was a member of the clan that was their sworn enemy. At the time, she did not know that there was a truce.
🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡🍡
Young Teen Years (11 -14) :
Niesha becomes a wanderer, moving all across Hisui to learn about the people that came before them and the Pokémon they now live with. Sometimes she encounters Alpha Pokémon and records their behaviors in her notes.
When she turned 13, she encounter a tiny Gligar that was stuck in the mud. She saw how scared the little thing was and helped her out, pulling her out with a large stick. Granted, she got a hug that made her incredibly dirty afterwards, but she felt really good after doing it.
The thing is, the Gligar never stopped following her. In fact, it would even snuggle up to her when she would pitch her tent and settle down for the night.
It wasn't until she decided to sell some of the Fire Stones she had collected when someone told her that the female Gligar really looked like her partner. She was kind of afraid to ask her, but the big, toothy smile she got in response was worth it.
She named her Glimmer.

Mid Teen Years (15-16) :
During these years she finally had her growth spurt, blossoming into a very tall and beautiful young lady (think of her with the body of Rangiku Matsumoto if she were 6"10). Glimmer had evolved, too. Into an Alpha Gliscor, which startled her.
One day, and without any kind of warning, the sky just turns red. Thinking it might have something to do with Mt. Coronet, she heads up to check it out.
Then she ends up beating the two Pokémon that are claimed to be Almighty Sinnoh, and Glimmer gets badly injured during the whole debacle.
When Arceus finally descends, she demands that he fix it all. He does, since she was the one who fixed many of the messes he had accidentally created. (Arceus means well, he's just doesn't really think about the consequences).

Conclusion :
Ingo is sent back to the present and regains his memories, Volo got defeated by a girl and her one single Pokémon (who's level 100 and had effort levels put into every single one of her stats).

"Fan-shaped leaves: This tree is the only surviving species of those primitive trees, which had fan-shaped leaves. It evolved more than 200 million years ago, before most other conifers.
Maidenhair Tree: Upright, broadly conical tree. Unique leaves are borne on long, slender stalks, and turn golden yellow in fall. Yellow-green seed, present only on female trees, contains kernel. Pale gray-brown bark cracks with age. Also known as the Gingko."
