#no love for keldeo

[front-facing-pokemon]

#this is certainly the most goat looking angle i've ever seen for cobalion #i kinda wish the rest of the swords of justice were relevant in gti. y'know? we only saw virizion and keldeo but we never got to #hear virizion's stories about what the other swords of justice were up to. or even like. about the fact that she is a legendary pokémon #she never talked about it. no one acknowledged it. everyone was just down bad for her with no idea she's a legendary #literally a sword of justice. no “where's cobalion & terrakion” just oh FUCK you're hot #and then she gets a crush on emolga of all pokémon. which‚ fail. he is in love with dunsparce. do not take this from him #i'm so disconnected from the actual canon of pmd at this point i've become so engrossed in my own devised version #with all my own versions of all the characters with real names that just are not anything like their canon counterparts at this point #i've changed pmd so much in my own head that it's like. do i even like pmd anymore #yes. yes i do. my pmd is simply a different version of the same thing that we all love. impossible to like pmd without creating fan content #i firmly believe this. hey why don't i stop talking about unrelated things in cobalion's tags #cobalion

For our newest specord event called "Fairytales and Folklore", I drew a piece for Lack-Two based on the Scottish folklore of the water kelpie.

In the past days of Crown Tundra, there lived an Alpha Keldeo that people called the water kelpie. It was known to lure children on its back on the shores of lakes. But once the children touched it, their hand would get stuck and Keldeo would dive deep underwater, and the children were never to be seen again. A young lad named Lack-Two has found himself being dragged down to depths... But maybe he can still make it, who knows?

#pokemon special #pokespe #specord fairytales and folklore #sorry about no art in months I've been both irl busy and busy with prepping Pokémon Kaleidoscope #but anyway I loved drawing this #I think some color choices could be different tho but I don't know how #gotta remind myself that I never do lighting like this so it's allowed to look a little bit off #overall I'm really happy #my art #trainer Lack-Two #Keldeo #Keldemaru #traditional #specord events

i feel like this is an elaborate murder on the orient express reference, except reborn is taking the high road for once and not involving murder with it

#bwark #had enough with trains and death with this game thank you very much #but fr i really like this quest i love mysteries i love playing detective #and it's actually a cool reference and not just ''make keldeo's shiny sprite look like celestia because they're both horses do you get it'' #nevermind the fact that keldeo is a UNICORN and celestia is an ALICORN #good fucking luck getting a woman to even look at you if you can't get the most basic of my little pony facts right #reborn lb

[snailchimera]

you know in some ways the new pokemon games *are* a marked improvement

think I just accidentally deeply annoyed someone via the following set of events:

playing Alpha Sapphire, doing trades before the wifi servers shut down

saw someone looking for Pokemon Y exclusives

showed them an Electrike

they never put anything else up so I figured they didn't want the Electrike

took forever trying to find other Y exclusives because I don't know what pokemon are Y exclusive off the top of my head

connection cut out, this one I think was accidental

after the connection cut out I put up a shoutout message asking if anyone wanted a Keldeo

Someone offers to trade with me

I don't notice it's the same person and assume they want the keldeo

they do not want the keldeo

however I am now locked into the keldeo

this also means I can't quit the trade

connection cut out, this time on purpose I think (I should have thought to do that)

tried to start a trade with them again

it times out

tried again

this time it was declined immediately

ScarVi may be buggy and unpolished at times, but at least it's never done that to me.

#Snail babble #Pokemon #3DS #pokemon oras #pokemon xy #Ryan if you're out there I'm sorry about that #but at least in 3 more days I will be physically incapable of irritating you even if I wanted to #I changed my mind about giving the keldeo away too so it really was a series of pointless nonsense #I love the old games and play them regularly but pokemon games Have Always Been Like This #they all have problems #and sometimes you encounter one that makes you really appreciate QoL changes in later games #hey remember when friendship and affection were two different things and you had to raise affection via minigame grinding #remember when bottlecaps didn't exist #or mints #or the ability to reliably check and breed for IVs so only hackers had 6IV pokemon #...that said I really love Alpha Sapphire and I'm gonna miss wonder trading #and seeing new secret bases #bring back secret bases dangit

[asterbats]

Starfallification GTI edition... It's these guys....

Design/Story/Headcanon rambles below!

Virizion

Name: Aramis

Pronouns: She/It

Design Ramblings:

-Her colors are a little dull to imply a sense of melancholy. Kind of a hint that she's not exactly healthy.

-Has a battle scar on her face from one of its escapades pre-GTI

-Has a friendship necklace with Keldeo. She only starts to wear it again in the postgame.

Headcanons/Tweaks:

-Doesn't go by Aramis until far later. Insists on the more distant "Virizion" until the Great Glacier arc

-Because this is an alternate timeline where humans went extinct, the Swords of Justice never became a steady group, so there is no formal quartet. Aramis does not know her own Terrakion and Cobalion.

-She does, however, know Keldeo, of course. There was no sort of mentor/student relationship between the two, they were childhood friends and used to spar frequently. Aramis was a shy child while Keldeo was more bold, so he helped bring her out of her shell. The two had a "he talks enough for the both of us" sort of dynamic. He infodumps and it listens.

-Has always struggled with deep self esteem issues, as she doesn't feel she's particularly likable.

-It actually did know about Keldeo's entercard capabilities, which was how it recognized Umbreon and Espeon as entercard users back in the day. It was very disturbed to see Keldeo's entercard markings in the Great Glacier.

-Didn't expect to find Noodle and Parker as enjoying as they were. She honestly expected to see Parker as a pest. But she found them more and more endearing as time went on and eventually sought out their company on her own very consistently. She’s in a QPR with them.

-She's very expressionless and aloof, which leads Pokemon to assume that she has no real feelings, especially as she rejects all of them. She was like this even before Keldeo sent the letter, but it got worse afterwards, of course. She's very blunt and honest as well, not seeing the point in sugarcoating anything. Because of this, she gets along well with Espeon.

-Feels the most conflicted about their child, as its worried that they will resent her for being aloof and avoid her. Or that they would see her for "what she truly was". But their child loves and looks up to her a ton, which does make her feel better.

Emolga

Name: Parker (Insists on Emolga)

Pronouns: He/It

Design Notes:

-So when I was younger, I always figured that Emolga kinda presented himself as a superhero? Because he swoops in to save Dunsparce in Stompstump Peak, he always sticks up for the little guy, and he's very vain and outspoken. The wings also lended well to that, since they look like a cape. So I wanted to lean into that!

-He's mixed with both Theivul (for the mask, tail, and extra brown color) and Boltund (for the wavy fur and eyes).

Story/Headcanons:

-When Parker was younger, it was abandoned by its parents, and no one was willing to take the orphan in, so he had to steal food to survive.

-It was every Pokemon for itself, so Parker never grew close to other Pokemon. Due to his small size and power, he was usually harassed for what little items he had, so he never trusted anyone.

-When he was a teenager, however, he ran into Noodle. The little snake was being bullied for their money by another group of Pokemon, and was frantically trying to empty his pockets. Emolga typically would have just ignored it to save his own skin... but watching the Pokemon mock Dunsparce and berate him for not having more food, and the sheer desperation and tears in the snake's face, something in him snapped, and he swooped in to defend the Dunsparce, fighting off the Pokemon. He intended to leave soon after, but Noodle insisted on taking care of his wounds and giving the Emolga a place to stay. After that, he and Noodle were best friends.

-Parker stopped stealing after that incident- it didn't want to stay in that lifestyle anymore after seeing how honest Noodle was. Unfortunately, this meant going hungry, so he would often go into Mystery Dungeons to get supplies for them- eventually becoming a stronger fighter for it. This inspired Noodle to want to be a treasure hunter themself, although they got lost very easily- Parker would have to look for them more often than not. Not that he didn't take pride in that... he let that ego go to his head. He loved providing for the smaller Pokemon, sure, but he also craved the notoriety.

-Holds a grudge very easily. You call him a rat and he will remember that decades down the line. He finds it hard to forgive

-Despite his size, he knows how to impose himself. Its got a naturally loud voice and he usually perches himself on high ledges so he stands over people.

-He has a massive heart, though. He adores his partners and will lay himself on the line for them. He also fawns over their child a lot.

-Was the closest to Eris out of the gang for a while, besides Kiran. It taught Eris how to handle his electricity and take care of his new body properly.

Dunsparce

Name: Noodle

Pronouns: They/He

Design Notes:

-Wears a reunion cape given to them by Kiran so they don't get lost as often!

Headcanon/Story notes:

-Was always picked on for being a weaker Pokemon. Because of this, they were rather withdrawn from others, and never put up a fight against larger Pokemon- they just didn't want any trouble.

-Took Parker into their home once he saved them from a group of Pokemon that was harassing them, and the two became fast friends. Parker jokingly called them a "noodle" because of how wobbly they'd get when they were scared, and the name stuck.

-Parker inspired them to want to become an explorer... but unfortunately, they never had the strength for it. He would go into dungeons on his own, and Parker would have to swoop in and save him.

-At first, they admired Aramis for its strength, and thought that if they could only become stronger, they would be liked as well as she was. But when they both joined Paradise, they broke her walls down, and saw her for who she truly was- warts and all. And they appreciated her more and more every day for it.

-Actually fell into a more strategizing/organizer role as the events of the game went on. They came into their own as a fighter and explorer and can hold their own in a fight now, but ended up finding a lot of comfort in taking care of others.

-It was their idea to adopt their kid. The trio had found the egg in a dungeon and Noodle pushed and pushed to raise the child as their own.

#sorry to everyone who requested a different character last year. i just really wanted to do these guys... #child has no name yet btw which is why theyre referred to as such. theyre a larvesta tho :3 #also. can you tell who my favorite is LMAO #virizion #emolga #dunsparce #pmd #pokemon #pkmnart #gti #gates to infinity #starfall #canon characters

[sincerely-sofie]

Are there any other legendaries like Celebi that just likes to hang out and vibe with mortals?

Mew loves taking the appearance of mortals and walking among them— albeit with a condescending “awww look at the widdle commoners :3” sort of perspective.

Latias is shy, but will befriend anyone who maintains eye contact for 2.75 seconds, mortal and Legend alike.

Cobalion, Terrakion, Virizion, and Keldeo are a traveling band of do-gooders who defend defenseless mortals, but Terrakion and Keldeo are the two who enjoy interacting with said mortals the most.

Victini LOVES hanging out with mortals and is the type of immortal who befriends entire bloodlines because it’s hard not to love every addition to the family tree of that first mortal bestie.

Yveltal doesn’t have the best PR, but likes to hear stories from the lives of mortals, and holds a great deal of respect for them, even if he doesn’t get to interact with them much.

Diancie sees herself as a mortal, and is always happily interacting with her carbink subjects.

Zeraora and Raikou travel together across largely unpopulated areas, but they adore the time they spend amongst mortals, and will settle down in one spot for a while when they find a group they get along with especially well.

Pecharunt was raised by mortals and is obsessed with gaining the approval of mortals at large. It’s less that he chills with them and more that he can’t stand not having people like him, and has to make sure that he has everyone’s adoration at all times.

Ogerpon was raised by a mortal and sees herself as being more mortal than Legend. She lives amongst mortals at all times, though she will periodically flee her current home and don a new mask, afraid of someone realizing she never ages and concluding that she’s a Legend.

Necrozma has been incorporated into the local PTA after signing up his litten son for school and is realizing that there’s a lot of light shining out from within the souls of mortals. He quite likes the little things more than he ever expected to.

#looking at this post and remembering mew and yveltal both appear in super mystery dungeon(?) and these are probably awful characterizations #AH SHOOT AND SO DOES VIRIZION AND KELDEO IN GATES TO INFINITY #that’s it I’m planning a replay through the entire series. #maybe I should like. livetweet it or somethin. #hmmmmmm #the present is a gift au #pokemon mystery dungeon #pokémon mystery dungeon #pmd explorers #pmd sky #pmd eos #pmd2 #pmd #sofie answers asks #necrozma

[front-facing-pokemon]

I just found this blog so I'm jumping aboard the plushie bandwagon.

First we got Absol. (i feel like maybe i should've taken a closer-up picture but it's the face sooo)

Then a Wooloo

And, saving best for last, this Leafeon plush I own... of which I swear on my life is official merch.

I also have some more eeveelutions (plus an eevee and a few more) but: 1. I didn't want to send too many. 2. Eeveelutions are more popular so I wanted to give some other people the chance to submit their own. 3. I don't know where my Pikachu and Snivy plushies are cuz I own too many stuffed animals.

Only reason I submitted Leafeon was so I could show off this ~masterpiece~ of a plushie I own. And it's face isn't the only thing wrong with it too lol. Also I just noticed I accidentally had one of the ears hanging back but I'm too lazy to go take another photo but i hope this amuses you nonetheless.

ALRIGHT THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF YOU AS I'VE BEEN OUT WITH MY FAMILY FOR CHRISTMAS HUH

let's start with these guys. beautiful. wonderful. i do not believe that that leafeon is official merch. this statement is baffling to me. welcome to the front-facing pokémon family. i love the eyes on that absol and wooloo is one of my faves. i was rather obsessed with it when it first came out and have a whole wooloo tag on my main blog because of it. though i guess i cleared that whole thing out recently so i don't anymore

let's get the nose ratings out of the way:

↑ this is a lie. 10/10 chespin

it's very wide and also 10/10 you're being too harsh. merry day to you too

circular face indeed. did i already post this one? if i did you can have it again

clodsire be upon ye. clodsire fans this is your treat until gen 9

this is a trend now. i think tumblr just crunched this image to hell for some reason so here's what the text says:

"Felt like joining the others for front facing pokeplushies [images] I have more pokemon but its early morning and these are the plushies that are easy to access"

i have not but i imagine "a moment" has long passed by now. my apologies but apparently today was an important day or something? idk

YEAH it's super unbelievably fucked up. i think i kinda remember the circumstance being a bit dire so everyone else was more worried about either 1. protagonist getting stomped on brutally or 2. saving the world from kyurem / the bittercold. i was totally under the impression that he was dead in that moment but i guess the characters may have known that he would just come back? i seem to vaguely remember partner being surprised that he came back and being like "but we watched you die :OOO" but maybe i'm misremembering that. i do create a lot of pmd lore on my own time so i have a hard time telling the difference between canon and fanon sometimes

two a day makes the world go round! this blog started when i started college, paused for 80% of my college career and now has started back up and i just graduated college a week ago. i would say "how time flies" but it has been a very, very long year

i've said it before and i'll say it again: gen 6 is my favorite gen, so you'll be seeing lots of favor for this gen from me in the tags i'm sure. maybe gen 6 is my excuse to start doing other things here. like that stream i keep talking about

if they put meloetta as a little obscure puzzle thang in sv, i'm sure they'll do something for genesect. i hope. at least for keldeo probably. genesect i'm not sure is very popular, unfortunately, outside of the tumblr crowd. if the general public's opinion on genesect is favorable, then maybe

okay and then i tried to scroll down further in my screenshots for more asks and saw the wobbly will smith in a hospital bed Gimme a Hug, Man that i copied from the "i get a little bit genghis kanghis" post so that's it. to everyone who christmases: merry it. it is today. although it's basically over by now so! merry boxing day for tomorrow if i don't say anything tomorrow. but i probably will. now i'm gonna go queue up today's 'mons because i haven't done it yet today. see you all in a few weeks when those post

#gti spoilers #under the cut. don't look if you haven't played it it's an amazing game #not pkmn #nose ratings #about to queue up gogoat and pancham so be ready for those in a while

[masterqwertster]

Okay, last little list here:

Bells Hells Legendary Pokémon

I already gave everyone a minimum of one Legendary in the original team post, so here's the list of all the Legendaries I think fit each member of Bells Hells (the Legendaries from the set teams will be included)

Chetney

Zacian- look, it's a wolf that's set to shank a bitch. Tell me that doesn't vibe with Chetney

Zeraora (Shiny)- kind of were-beast in shape. Shiny to match Chetney's own white fur

Kubfu/Urshifu (Single Strike Style)- more were-fuzzies for Chet. Single Strike Style because Chetney's the type to one-and-done it if he can

Okidogi- werewolf-ish Pokémon for Chet!

Orym

Shaymin- more friendly flowers for Orym, and the Sky Form is a little fighter like him

Virizion- grass blade Pokémon who protects others

Keldeo (Resolute form, Shiny)- it's a little sword guy (pony) like Orym. And shiny makes it green and Resolute Form because Orym knows what he wants

Kartana- a little blade guy for a little swordsman

Zacian- noble sword Pokémon for a noble little swordsman

Zamazenta- noble shield Pokémon for a protective little guy with a treasured shield

Fearne

Moltres- a burning phoenix Pokémon that Fearne worries will take on the Galarian Form that her Bad Future Self had

Entei- fluffy fire dog Pokémon

Celebi- little onion fairy and that travels through time for a fey that lived in wonky time

Cresselia- Fearne is lightly Ruidusborn and this is a gentler moon Pokémon

Reshiram- fiery semi-wolf Pokémon for our fire faun

Xerneas- it's a Fairy-type, deer are kind of close to goats, and Xerneas has a minor moon motif

Zarude- grass monkey for the druid with a monkey

Munkidori- another monkey to mother for Fearne

Imogen

Spectrier- Legendary horse that comes in Imogen's two colors: purple and red

Raikou- it's a thunderstorm Pokémon for a gal who claims she is the storm

Deoxys- an alien Pokémon for a girl connected to alien moon people

Cresselia (Shiny)- Imogen gets moon Pokémon. Shiny for purple coloration

Thundurus (Shiny)- another lightning Pokémon for our electric sorceress. Shiny for purple coloration

Keldeo (Ordinary Form)- little unicorn for the horse girl

Lunala (Shiny)- literal red moon Pokémon when shiny

Regieleki- more eletrical Pokémon for Imogen

Glastrier- another horse Pokémon for the horse girl

Laudna

Marshadow- it's shadow theme matches Laudna's Shadow Sorcerery. And Laudna does spend time trying to copy the Ladies of Whitestone…

Giratina- considering Delilah took her soul to a reverse/shadow realm, and that's the kind of place Giratina is from, it seems a good fit

Darkrai- a nightmare Pokémon for a woman who loves nightmares

Yveltal- a Pokémon that absorbs life essences, much like Hunger of the Shadows does the same for Laudna and Delilah

Calyrex- because it's the Pokémon that can bring Glastrier and Spectrier under control, much like how Laudna is a great deal of Imogen's control

FCG

Magearna- a man-made clockwork Legendary for the Aeormaton

Genesect- it's ancient and modified by people to be a killing machine, just like FCG

Miraidon- robot-like Legendary for the robit

Ashton

Cosmog- suddenly appeared after Ashton got galaxy-brained because it's a little galaxy guy from another (higher?) dimension. It's Ashton's innocent baby who doesn't know how to stay in the damn pokéball and not reveal his soft side

Regigigas- this is the big titan Pokémon, hauling continents and shit. Not to mention that the Slow Start ability reflects how Ashton had a titan shard for twenty years before they really got it to do anything spectacular

Regirock- if Ashton gets one Regi, it's Regigigas for titan shit. But Regirock is definitely Earth Elemental vibes and so also goes to Ashton

Dialga- one of Ashton's dunamancy domains is time and this is a Pokémon lord of time

Palkia- one of Ashton's dunamancy domains it space and this is a Pokémon lord of space

Terrakion (Shiny)- it's tough and it doesn't like bullies, sounds pretty Ashton to me. Shiny because I think Ashton would like the pop of the shiny palette

Zygarde- Ashton is sort of split into a million pieces by the half-beacon brain, and Zygarde's 100% Form is kind of titan-ish

Diancie- another crystal and rock Pokémon. Also goes a little bit with the Empress of Earth vibes, or rather the Empress's heir

Hoopa- a Pokémon that switches between a Confined and Unbound Form, kind of like Ashton's normal and demi-titan modes. And it messes around with space like Ashton. Also, normal genasi are sometimes/often sired by elemental genies and this Pokémon is based on genies

Koraidon- ancient earth splitter for the earth titan's blood (also mirrors FCG having Miraidon)

#yeah. I know there's a lot of variance in how many Legendaries everyone gets #that's the way the cookie crumbles when you're pulling from a very limited pool #MQ AU machine #bells hells pokemon au #cr spoilers #bells hells #chetney pock o'pea #orym of the air ashari #fearne calloway #imogen temult #laudna #fcg #ashton greymoore

[horse-reviews]

Horse Pokemon?

Eg, Rapidash, Galarian Rapidash, Keldeo, Ponyta, etc? I love them all and want them to be reviewed

(I love this blog btw, I just discovered it through the G3 MLP post and I'm enjoying reading all of the reviews and seeing fictional horses)

Pokemon horse Keldeo

Rating: ƱƱƱƱƱ (perfect)

Although this beast takes some liberties with horse anatomy I am delighted by its stylisation and its design reminds me of Unico somewhat. What's more it is a mythical kelpie and a most noble sword of justice so I can't really ask for better horse representation than this.

#horse review #keldeo #pokemon

keldeo layout time

#oughhh i love gen 5 #(totally didnt do the keldeo event in bw2 today)
