Hey Naff,,, so,,, I’ve been thinking a lot about SJ Pokémon Style recently, and about how having Pokémon would open up so many new avenues for Shenanigans, particularly for the Vigilante’s escapes. This lead to me thinking of a scene probably early on in the “game”, when the Detectives are still getting used to Vigilante’s team and shenanigans. They’ve managed to corner them on a rooftop or something, with nowhere else to run, the Vigilante’s hands up and unable to reach for any Pokéballs. The boys’ own Pokémon stand by ready to spring into action at a moment’s notice. Despite this, the Vigilante’s just as calm and collected as ever.
Vigilante: Well, looks like you’ve got me cornered. Good job, detectives.
Sun: Just come quietly and we’ll take you in.
Vigilante, glancing at the ledge behind them and smirking: Hmm… You know what? I don’t think I will.
Moon: There’s nowhere left to run. It’s over.
Vigilante: ‘Over’? Why detectives, this is far from over~
The Vigilante hops up onto the ledge behind them, smiling sweetly as Sun nervously tells them to get back down. Then with a wink, they jump. The detectives and their Pokémon rush to the ledge in alarm, when suddenly-
CRAAAAWW!
The massive black form of Corvinight comes shooting up from below, the Vigilante perched confidently on its back.
Vigilante: In fact, I think our little game’s only just getting started~!
Just… the Potential for dramatic escapes (and entrances!) in this AU is immense. The mental image of the Vigilante standing (standing, not sitting like a normal person because they're Dramatic and Talented like that) on Corvinight or even Hydreigon, calling down to the detectives flirtatiously has been living in my mind rent free for days.
(I can also imagine them making another comment about their reactions, something like “Don’t look so alarmed, boys. Why, if I didn’t know any better, I’d say you were worried about me just now~” meanwhile the boys are still recovering from minor heart attacks lol. The Vigilante pulls this stunt approximately 74639 more times. It still stresses them out.)
Ahhh, the shenanigans would be so fun in the Pokemon style of SJ! I also love how much more the Pokemon can express the vigilante's and the detectives' personalities and be wingmen in a sense.
I adore the thought of the vigilante standing on Hydreigon's back while leaning over the edge of a roof to chat (flirt) with Moon, completely at ease and stable, not a fear of falling. Hydreigon rolls its eyes before pushing the vigilante up a step higher into a kiss with the detective (a la Aladdin) to cut the chatter.
Sun catches sight of the raven wings of Corviknight before the vigilante drops into the middle of his investigation of a gang attack while it's raining, his Braviary watching the other bird-like Pokemon closely with his wing held above Sun from his perch to keep him dry. Likewise, Corviknight spreads a wing to shelter the vigilante while the two discuss the murders. The two Pokemon are ever patient and move a touch closer to each other, connecting the canopy of their feathers when the detective and vigilante press close as they continue to theorize.
During chases late into the night, the vigilante will smile when Greninja cuts off their escape route, the Pokemon standing silent and ready. Their Scolipede scowls but vigilante soothes their Pokemon by promising that Detective Moon is already here—if Greninja is any indication of that.
There's a time or two that Detective Sun will find the vigilante with the aid of his Espeon, tracking them down after a few days of radio silence only to find the vigilante hunkering down somewhere, nursing some wounds and watched over by Banette. The doll-like Pokemon gives the creeps to anyone who gazes upon it, defensive of its trainer, but Sun has Espeon convince the Pokemon to let him closer so he can reach the vigilante and start patching up their injuries.
Absol will often pop out of the vigilante's Pokeball unbidden but frantic with its desire to warn its trainer, and the vigilante knows to start running with Absol right beside them. It always seems to be too late for Eclipse's Talonflame to be upon them. A fight isn't quick enough to get out of this before the boss man is upon them, grinning, and holding his arm out for his Pokemon before he and the vigilante, Absol growing at the other trainer, have a little talk.

new fakemon of mine! i had a lot of fun making them, below is WIPs, my design process, and some fun facts :3
first of all, these are generally based off stim toys, but more specifically, sensory slugs!
cherislug, as it is meant to be just a giant stim toy, has the texture of a stress ball on its main body, it rattles it's neck plates to make noise, and its hearts can light up and glow. it generally is a support mon, so in battle would work best in double battles to tank hits and boost its allies, hence why it has the hidden ability 'Love link'.
onto the wips!
first was a test to see how the slugs look when drawn
then, we have my first attempt at a design which.. is very unbalanced haha
although i kept the general body language and shapes of it the same, the colours were edited and i added the seperated hearts
and finally, the renders!
feel free to make fanart of this guy, just @ or dm me with it!

So, I'm curious!
In Sleuth Jesters pokemon style, was Deino the vigilante's first pokemon, since it was a gift from Afton? Or was their first pokemon one they managed to catch by themselves as a kid before they came across Vanny? (Or maybe it even was the Feebas Vanny dismissed as useless?)
Pokemon style, let's go!
The vigilante's first pokemon is Deino, given to them by Afton, of course! They never caught any pokemon as a kid left on the streets. This is their first, and one they must train in a manner that Afton deems fit.
Their second pokemon is Feebas after Vanny tries to toss the poor little pokemon after making a nasty comment comparing the 'mon to Y/N (ugly and weak) and Y/N has an 'oh yeah? bet' moment and snatches up the Feebas.
The third pokemon is after Y/N hands over the kid to Afton and is found by a Shuppet, who was drawn to their breakdown of grief and anger. Y/N is so grateful for Shuppet's presence as it feeds on their negative energy and allows them to calm down enough to think about what to do next. Y/N catches the pokemon with a vow to take down the Afton family.
Right before the final confrontation of the Afton Family with Michael, the vigilante meets their fourth pokemon: an Absol they have glimpsed so often in their life. From before Vanny approached them to various dangerous gun fights, this Absol has kept close tabs on them. Y/N asks the pokemon to help them with this important battle, and Absol accepts, joining their team.
The fifth and sixth members of the vigilante's teams are found together. Y/N is struggling in the aftermath of no longer being Afton's loyal Houndoom (hehe) and stumbles upon a Rookidee and Venipede viciously attacking each other before Y/N pulls the two apart. They're very aggressive despite their size and Y/N decides that they'll teach them to get along, and maybe they can use these two 'mons to help them clean up the city. (Corviknight and Scolipede then become Y/N's picks for double battles.)

Commentary
So studying styles to mimic and today we're going for Pokemon character sprites. They adhere to a 16x16 style so I had fun putting as much information in as possible. the red eyes, the white skin, the tail and ears. She blends in a bit with the background but our little magical girl is a champion of stealth and medicine as a lab mouse. I worked on her in isolation so I wouldn't break the canvas rule and then brought her out to the maze canvas which was an added treat to create. Here she is up close.
