Would sapient life on another planet be considered Pokemon? How would an alien civilization react if they found out their species can be imprisoned in a ball?

>sapient life on another planet be considered Pokemon
yeah, see deoxys and other astronomical pokemon
>How would an alien civilization react if they found out their species can be imprisoned in a ball?
they'd roar and squawk and be domesticated and do whatever animals do
the only true civilization in the universe is the human civilization

Say somewhere in the deep wilderness where no human has ever reached, perhaps in some dark uncontacted continent, a large group of a certain pokemon species have achieved a level of population and organization comparable to that of Mesopotamia at the time of the invention of writing, around 5,000 years ago in our history. Assume they've never heard of humans and our culture has not impacted theirs in any way.

Which species do you see as likely to achieve this? How would they treat other pokemon species, or humans if they ever came across any?

>>58126686 (OP)
Pretty sure the Ultra Space Wilds from USUM are just far away planets

>>58127091
Kinda, it reminds me of the corridor of darkness in Kingdom Hearts and how ultra aura messes with your mind

>>58127055
I could see water pokemon doing this deep in the ocean like phione but I assume you mean something land based
I'll say sableye, lucario or beartic are my contenders

>>58127055
Dragonite, since the pokedex says that is as smart as humans, there is also a chance that the legendary hidden island full of dragonites that is mentioned as well in the pokedex also has a civilization built by a people of Dragonites

>>58127055
An open secret among the most prolific psychic trainers is that the Alakazam evolutionary line are all at human or higher level of intelligence, and are capable of teleporting out of their own Pokeballs. Their trainers aren't sure where they go when they aren't being called upon for battle or companionship, but they are certain it's to wherever their homeland might be - for reasons that humans simply do not know, these Pokemon just seem to LIKE being trained for Pokemon battles.

Psychic Agartha...home...

>>58127409
Thought that was art for Mountains of Madness.

>>58127055
Not on earth but in space.
Clefairy on the moon with a giant Lunatone God Emperor. Martian analogue with Beheeyem and Elgyem. Deoxys that act as galactic nomads, colonizing planets by using asteroids to transport their viral forms across stars.

>>58126686 (OP)
If they can be caught in Poke Balls, yup, they're Pokemon. And they'd probably kill us all if they were powerful enough.

New PoPT chapter out for those who partake

>>58127849
Oh boy another dose of humiliation ritual? My favorite.

>>58127409
isn't Agartha a subterranean place?

>>58128178
Yeah but it has a full sky.
The whole point was that there's an entire "world" inside the Earth.

>When the Isekai protag reveals what they are
Apparently these scenes are usually terribly done in Isekai fics?

>>58129022

Any pokemon examples?

>Ben Tennyson scolds his son Ken for transforming into an infant-shaped alien to suck on his mom's tits

>>58129130
Oh, sorry I wasn't that anon and thought you mean Isekai in general

>>58129104
a bad fanfic one
specifically a pokemon fanfic

>>58129047
This is basically what I was asking.

I’m being told I did a good job on it compared to other stories, and I normally hate Isekai tropes so I never get far enough for the reveal

>>58129104
How does one respond to this without sounding mad?

>>58129249
if you don't get far enough why are you worried about it? deal with the other stuff first

>>58129354
I was just curious because most comments were “I normally hate when this scene happens but you did it pretty well.”

Also I was very surprised how popular the Subway masters are.

>>58129493
Nigga are you serious? 15 years, 15 fucking years too late

>>58129493
The trick is to never read other fanfiction so that you can't be tainted by your perception of how other people write.

>>58129104
Realistically how you would feel about this? Does it really warrant a negative reaction?

>>58129951
>The child you've been raising, doing your best to teach right and wrong, was a fully grown person this whole time who had has been deceiving you for their 'entire' life
>They don't even think of you as their father, just as 'the' father
That's what would do it for me. The realization that I wasn't raising my child, or even any child, but more like a roommate who has been lying to me for decades.

I could probably get past it eventually, but the mind break would be real.

>>58130085
it's more on you for being so retarded you can't tell a grown man apart from a child

>>58130157
What do you mean it's strange for a 0 year old to be reading books working out?

>>58130085
its not like they did it on purpose or will ill intentions or purposely killed the child to take over the body just to suck yo wife tiddy

>>58130265
you see Moon is actually a nazi chemical scientist from our world that reincarnated as little girl in the pokemon world from the pokespe parallel universe

>>58127704
I have a note I typed up on my phone after waking up in the middle of the night.
It just says Enslaver Deoxys.

>Ommi Ring
Fuck that gay shit.
Sync Stones too by the way.
One universal gimmick accessory is super gay.
See, this is what we were talking about. About how lame the Pokemon World is now. It's this kind of shit.
Super futuristic sci-fi machine for communication and shit? LOL NO WE HAVE JUST A SMARTPHONE NOW
Wide variety of accessories made out of very rare materials some very expensive some nearly impossible to find some which have very deep cultural significance to their home region?
LOL NO WE NOW HAVE ONE GENERIC ONE SIZE FITS ALL WRISTBAND FOR EVERYTHING NOW
This stuff? It's lame. It takes away all the flavor and mystique of everything. Everything's sanitized, everything's streamlined. It fucking sucks.

>>58131213
>Sync Stones too by the way.
So the gacha lore is expanding?

>>58131213
Masuda fucked us hard, and like some anon said we already reached that future but in the lame timeline

>>58131213
It's okay because it's balanced out by the Syncitto. Syncitto is like a ditto except it can be any pokemon it wants whenever it wants with any stats it wants and with any held item it wants. Syncitto also has 6 lives and can change setup each time it faints and revives that way you can have an entire pokemon team built in one.
Now you don't have to hunt down pokemon you want or train them for the moves you want or get them the ability you want because Syncitto can do it all.

Syncitto only appear on the special region called Synceo and all the strongest and coolest trainers get summoned to Synceo because Syncarceus(stronger than Arceus btw) got bored. Syncarceus got bored because it defeated Grim without getting hit once and then sweeped all of the Zircan empire too without even fainting a single time.

>>58131234
More like being completely ignored.
They could have easily used Sync Stones here but they decided to come up with some new shit instead.

>>58131251
Though if you wanna be a hard lorefag Sync Stones are better since they also give you the chance to unlock an Arc Suit.

>>58131250
>Syncitto also has 6 lives
Why not seven like Volo? Call it the Seven Deadly Syns

>>58131267
Because the license limit for pokemon is 6 and escalation is illegal so nobody carries more. But if anyone ever does carry more Syncitto will unlock more lives because it actually always had that power all along and no one knew.

>>58131251
Shit, mixed stuff. I thought that was the name in MasterSex

>>58131247
>We never actually checked if any of the people who buy our games want this, we just decided to because we're getting older and forget what kids want

>og sygna suit
Also, wonder if Emma washes her suit daily if she uses it everyday like her normal outfit unless she has one suit per day

>>58131885
Emma has NEVER washed her suit, that would get rid of sensei-Xerosic's scent!

>>58130157
>your retarded for thinking that thing that your wife carried for 9 months and gave birth too was a child
It would be such an insane leap of logic to assume otherwise. Unless the setting is known for children being replaced with 'something' else only the most paranoid bastard would assume the literal child they spent their life raising was not a child.

>>58130283
Which is why I could eventually get past it. Honestly, if the child just said with their first words 'I am a middle aged man' I would take it much better. It's the decades long misleading that would hurt the most.

>>58132338
Honestly its more likely the parents would think the kid is autistic or one of those antisocial savants.

>>58131213
This is sadly a thing that happens in real life with the homogenization of style and design we are seeing in tech (and everything else).

The same counter irl should exist in pokemon, an indie scene and smaller businesses who offer more niche designs and experiences. Guys like Clemont and Sophocles who have their own brands.

>>58131250
Based, this is true world building.

>>58131251
I would just head canon the things to be made from Sync Stones.

>>58127849
>MC gets cheated on before getting isekai'd
>finally soothes his trauma by flirting with Mina
>actually she has been dating MC's rival before and she may be just messing with him
Why are you like this?

>>58132338
>only the most paranoid bastard would assume the literal child they spent their life raising was not a child
Yes but it'd still be extremely obvious something was wrong with the kid. At best your child is a high-functioning autist and at worst a complete nutcase psychopath timebomb. With how lax people seem to be they probably just wouldn't care but still.
Also, Pokemon has ghost types which can possess things.

>>58130157
>waaa sniff sniff, hello, child protective services?My parents think I'm the reincarnation of a middle aged man and they want to kill me!!! I'm so scared, please lock them in jail forever and give me a family that won't know me as well and won't be unto me :(

>>58132726
>Yes but it'd still be extremely obvious something was wrong with the kid.
I don't know the story the example pic is from, but its easy to say something is extremely obvious when you have an audience viewpoint. What signs exactly would make it super obvious to a parent that something is wrong?

>>58132754
no way pokemon has a cps equivalent
just as corrupt or otherwise
>>58132814
because my baby doesn't act anything like a baby should

When I become a parent I'm going to tell my child I will love them no matter what, even if they secretly are an alien or a demon or a middle aged man reincarnated.

>>58132821
>because my baby doesn't act anything like a baby should
Be specific. That's vague enough to not mean anything.

>>58132831
?
instead of doing things that babies do like cry and boggle their eyes at every new thing they see the baby is not doing either of those
ie: instead of acting like a baby should it isn't acting like a baby should

>>58132754
>Of course, little boy! But first, we will screen you with our 'normal child' detector—just part of procedure, wouldn't want to find out you turned into an Abra overnight or got possesed or something, haha! It happens more often than you'd—
>...

>>58132855
>my baby doesn't cry or look around enough
>this must mean it is a reincarnated middle age man
Yeah, that is a massive leap in logic. This is why I asked for examples, to show you that it is in no way as obvious as you claim.

>>58132897
>something is wrong with my baby
>oh he's possessed by a ghost
>oh he's just autistic
>oh he's receiving visions from a cosmic entity
>oh he's cursed
>oh it was a middle aged man the whole time
the point is that you already know your baby is a fucked up weirdo and would already know something is going on
acting like the isekai reveal (already an extremely retarded concept and easily bypassed by having the 'memories' trickle in as the child grows) is a huge betrayal and that your child was lying to you is stupid because only the most negligent retarded parents wouldn't notice something is wrong with their baby and keep a closer eye on it and notice all of the oddities as they 'grow up'
sure the suspicion wouldn't immediately be 'my wife gave birth to a middle-aged man who died a grisly death' but it wouldn't be such a punch to the gut like the gooktunes in >>58129104 shows

the whole thing is retarded
it's just shitty forced drama for the sake of being able to call a story dramatic

>>58132949
I've forgotten to mention the biggest issue I have with the whole thing
You'd know something is wrong with the child and then do absolutely nothing about it? Wouldn't ask directly, have him checked out by professionals, put him on medication, etc.?
The proper reaction is to do nothing and ignore it then act betrayed when you can't ignore it any more? I don't get that.

>>58132821
>just as corrupt or otherwise
erm you know that the pokemon world is almost utopian, right?

>>58132855
they would tell you he's on the spectrum

The three gimmicks look cool together but the omni ring is more practical, mm...

>>58132949
>something is wrong with my baby
>the doctor says he is perfectly healthy
>is my baby just a little weird?
>better hire a spirit medium and a psychic to investigate them just in case
Again, its a wild leap in logic to assume there is something greater at work than your child is just odd. Children are little weirdos, they act strangely all the time. To say 'I am going to have a my baby checked for ghosts' because they 'aren't looking around at stuff enough' is not the normal course of action a parent would take.

>>58133309
Crazy that this got introduced after we were talking about Sync Stones.

Of course, the logical course of action is to wear all 4. One of each gimmick, and the omnitrix can be a free extra use of 1 gimmick per battle.

Wish the Terra Orb was a cool thing you could wear instead of a ball you through. But its cool in its own right.

The funniest part is that I've been around babies that don't cry often or look around at everything all bug-eyed lmao

>>58133309
Glad I introduced Mega Stones in my future-Kalos fic right before these got revealed so I can be grandfathered in on never using them since they look lame.

>>58133250
hence the 'or otherwise'

>>58133480
Those must be isekaiers. You must strike them down now before they grow too powerful.

>>58131213
>Cultural significance doesn't put money in your pocket, kiddo. What all trainers want is conformity and accessibility, and the Omni-Ring delivers. You see a loss of mystique? I see a mountain of cash. This isn't about childish sentimentality; it's about dominating the market and ensuring a steady, overflowing stream of income. This thing isn't just an accessory; it's an empire in the making. And that's what matters.

Nothing personnel, Scott

>>58132338
babies cant talk and even if he could communicate there was a nonzero chance they wouldve killed him or thought he was mental

>>58134115
I was giving my own viewpoint of how I'd feel as the father of an isekai child, not giving a character judgement on whoever the people in the pic were.

But thinking on it further, it really would depend on how my relationship with the kid turned out. I fully believe a parent is responsible for having a good relationship with their kid, so if I didn't have a good relationship with them I would assume that it was my fault somehow and feel really guilty. If I then found out that it was because they were never even my child at all I would be furious. Wouldn't be fully logical about it, but no parent can be objective on the subject of their own children. And despite everything I would still consider them my child.

If I had a good relationship with them on the other hand... I guess I would be a little hurt for not being trusted with the truth, but I would still love them as my child.

>>58134035
as if Champions would be the first ones to use it to silently promote them

>>58134232
Cynthia's lipstick Mega Stone is the definition of serving cunt there's no shot she'd trade that for fuckass Apple tech

You can't use Mega Evolution, Z Crystals, Dynamax, and Terastallization because the energies are incompatible. Each one is like an oath sworn in battle that grants power but also limitations. Ash just uses his natural massive aura talent and years of experience to bypass the otherwise impossible problem. The average trainer won't even make a ring glow until their battle is over and they've rested their spirits.

>>58132537
I don't care how advanced Gondor's mundane tech might get, unless they're an intergalactic empire then they are not at the level where they can recreate all the magic rings and the palantire and fit them all in one easily massed produced consumer product. Clemont can barely keep a city's power grid from breaking down ffs.

>>58132825
That's how you get murdered in your sleep by a transmigrator who's afraid their cover's been blown.

If my son revealed to me that he's a transmigrator I would slay him
not for betraying me or fooling me but for not telling me sooner so we could scam people
someone so stupid as to waste their second chance not getting themselves as far ahead as possible using every avenue available doesn't deserve a second life

Aura mogs

>>58134475
But what if your son only regains his past life memories after a certain age?

>>58134635
That would require associating with psychics and ghosts
>>58134702
So he was too weak to remember his past life in it's entirety at birth?
Even more reason to be put down

>>58134407
Damn I can't argue about that Gondor shit. Good thing we are talking about pokemon though and we already are slapping magical stones into bracelets and shit. Slapping a bunch of magic stones into one bracelet is not a crazy feat, especially considering there is precedence for a guy just wearing three bracelets at the same time working just fine.

>>58134438
If being a good father gets me murdered then thats honestly the best fate I can have at that point.

>>58134781
How many magic stones do you think there are?

>>58134696
>gen 10 comes out
>the gimmick is aura
>the Omni Ring can do that too

>>58134791
That's a good question, some were supposed to be powered by ayyylmao niggers and absorb nature energy so using them to hell and back would just speed up the world's end making Rose right

I love how, as our fiction advances, we create better and more advanced kinds of mental illness. I sincerely believe there is a considerable number of people who've offed themselves already, genuinely thinking they'll wake up in another world with a cheat power.

How long until zoomer mothers and fathers start smothering their own children because they're convinced they're secretly transmigrators in disguise?

>>58134825
It's probably already happened, although I wouldn't say it's a more advanced mental illness but rather a reskinned one. Without myth and folklore to fuel a psychopath's fantasies about their baby being the antichrist or a changeling, those psychopaths can now default to their baby being a transmigrator. People who grew up on anime have recently reached that age too, so if it's not happened yet it's going to be happening soon.

>>58134696
Wait until they modify Pokemon to give them infinite aura supply like the androids from Dragon Ball Z

>>58134696
Aura vs Technology is basically what Scarlet and Violet were about (tech is better btw)

>>58134925
>Aura vs Technology is basically what Scarlet and Violet were about
how

>>58134937
The past is aura, the future is technology. Koraidon uses aura, Miraidon uses technology. The time machine is technology powered by aura, and terastelization is aura powered by technology. Nemona is aura, Penny is technology, Arven is Nutrition (which is both tech and aura). The parallels are right there in the game, need I go on?

>>58134783
I like this image.

>>58134236
This. Just look at how many people now associate lipstick with Cynthia now.
Anyone using Ommi Rings will seen as souless. Anyone using customized gimmick items will be seen as SOUL.
Plus, getting cheap generic ommi-rings also means showing the world you're a shitter unable to get genuine true fancy gimmick items. Meanwhile anyone getting the individual items will be showing the world they're the real deal who actually worked their butt and have the power and luck to make those items their own.
>>58134685
Steven would NEVER use a ommi ring because that means he'd have to separate himself from not one but TWO rare stones. He'd rather die than let his stone autism be unsatisfied.
Lance is a dragonclanfag. And stiff as a board. He'd do shit proper and right.
Leon? Yeah, he'd be a sell-out just like he already is. But it's Leon lmao the biggest fraud in the entire pokeworld this would just make Galar into an even BIGGER laughingstock than they already are.

Ommis are for shitters, sellouts and lame people. Simple as.

I currently have a rather long and tedious chapter and I have thought about splitting it in half roughly . I'm somewhat afraid that readers may think I have posted a new chapter when in actuality I just split it apart. I would honestly understand if they felt swindeled.
Should I just do it?

>>58135168
Posting a Part 1 and Part 2 is quite normal, I think.

>>58135177
Oh sorry if I wasn't clear. I already posted this chapter. It is bloated and exhausting to get through according to some critics, so I thought while the content should be altered, so should the structure of the story overall.

>>58135254
But it feels a little scummy to do this after a few months.

>>58135257
>Months
If it's that time frame, you just gotta leave it imo. I was fortunate enough to ask this thread if my 10k+ word chapter was too much (when my range is usually 5k-7k words) and they gave good feedback. For future reference, if you're able to find a good scene break just cut it there. It may feel jarring when posting, but a majority of your readers will be reading days, weeks, and months after you've posted the chapters individually and they won't even notice.

>trending towards a new dawn has vanished from ao3
Bro what the fuck

>>58135138
Steven would use the omniring, because the company that he is an heir to would assure him that it's just as if not more efficient than the stone, and why would he risk his precious metagrossnite in combat when he can keep it at home?

Lance like the pompous faggot he is would probably want to be perceived as a purist and would stick to the stone. He's happy Dragonite even gets a mega and the tiny shred of relevancy this has granted him in the global stage.

If you played Black Iris values progress and she uses the Omni-ring, if you played White she embraces tradition and rejects it.

Diantha probably keeps the stone because she likes showing off her jewels, but Cynthia is a practical woman, how could she pass up a device capable of pulling off every gimmick at once?

Does Kukui even have anything that mega evolves? Leon is owned by Rose, so he's wearing it. Geeta's definitely wearing it, maybe using it on her Chesnaught.

Red and Blue? Wearing it.

What if you been isekai'd and in the end you end up getting hitched with Delia, not remembering who she was until you two bang and she gives birth to a son she names Ash?
What would you do knowing you are the biological father to the Chosen One?

>>58135396
Kill him, feed him to wild pokemon, then grill and eat those pokemon to absorb his chosen one status. Maybe also kill Delia if I think she'll cheat on me with Oak like in the original timeline.
I won't face any punishment for these crimes because Arceus still needs his chosen one, and according to the laws of nutrition you are what you eat.

>>58135396
Kill myself using an aura ritual, have my remains cooked into a stew he eats, proceed to possess his body and mind to control him as my avatar. The laws of nutrition state you are what you eat, after all.

>>58135325
>him that it's just as if not more efficient than the stone
Rock autism = efficiency.
>and why would he risk his precious metagrossnite in combat when he can keep it at home?
Keeping the rock on himself and sharing his bond with Metagross through his autism rocks >>>>>>>>> keeping the rock at home where he cannot enjoy it 24/7
Good you agree about Lance even if you try to put him down to try to make it look bad. That's how you know you already know you're in the wrong.
>SHITris approving of ommis
Thank you for agreeing that ommi-users are sellouts, frauds and overall shitters.
Good to see you agree on Diantha.
A practical woman, and yet she put her keystone on a lipstick? Just for the purpose of girlbossing? kekaroooooooooo
Plus as an historyfag Cynthia would value cultural meaning.
Cynthia's a massive tryhard and loves her waku waku. She would rather die than deny himself the adventure of obtaining the single gimmick items, specially the ones with deeper cultural significance and history like z-rings.
lol Pageeta, yet more proof that ommi users are lame and gay
Red? Blue? They're among the biggest tryhards out there. They would NOT take a gay shortcut like this no matter what. They would take the challenge of obtaining their gimmick items and fucking love it.
Thank you for supporting my entire argument.
Ommi users? SOULESS, SHITTERS, FRAUDS AND BUMS.

>>58135396
The kid is getting common sense trained into him, and a clear idea of what each and every mythical Pokemon I can remember looks like. Maybe get him started early practicing training with one of my 'mon, or a child of one of 'em.
After that, though, I'm going to set out to find a Legendary and turn myself into a movie antagonist for the hell of it. Maybe try and track down the red Solgaleo, since I don't doubt I'd be a Steel specialist.

>>58135396
>not remembering who she was
Go to the doctor because clearly I have brain problems.
What's next not knowing who the blonde little girl with umbreon hair accessories and a gible who just passed by is loli Cynthia?

>>58135474
Nta but Delia has a rather normal design like Ash and not some crazy haircolor and such so it can happen

>>58135474
Delia's is an anime-exclusive side character who only appears a handful of times and is very generic, it'd be very easy to forget her especially for people who don't give that much of a fuck about the anime or pokemon in general.
A little blonde girl with a gabite stands out a lot more than generic broad #58135506

>>58135168
Stop being so self conscious about what your readers think. They will at worst go 'oh, huh' if they even notice and get over it almost immediately.

>>58135396
Bang her again to create Ashtwo through Ashnine

>Thinking of giving my characters mega keystone accessories just because they are cool
>None of them have mega pokemon
>Neither of them even participate in pokemon battles

>>58135613
Have them run by the nearest pokemart and buy an omniring. Mega stones and keystones might be uber rare but omnirings practically grow on trees.

>>58135613
Should have planned ahead and given them at least two candidates. I guess you'll have to give them Pokemon BREAK! instead

Why don't we see humans using pokemon items more often? Who wouldn't want to run really fast in a straight line by wearing a choice scarf, or become autistically hyper-fixated on a specific problem while wearing Choice Specs?

>>58135511
>anime-exclusive
You mean like ash?

>>58135781
they only work in conjunction with attacks, they don't apply to every conceivable activity

>>58135827
Yeah but it's hard to not know about Ash seeing how his face was plastered on 50% of pokemon merch back in the day. Again, huge difference between a prominent main character and a barely seen side character.

>>58135835
Imbue your body with aura and move. You are now doing an attack.

Again, you have to be fucking retarded or have genuine brain problems to not remember who the fuck Ash's mom is who's by far and wide one of the most popular and well-known side characters of the anime since she's you know Ash's fucking mom.
If you're a fucking autist who's on this shithole of an imageboard you fucking know who the fuck Ash's mom is.
If you don't know who the fuck Ash's mom is you have bigger problems at hand because that means besides a vague idea of who the fuck Ash is you know NOTHING about the anime or even the franchise as a whole beyond normalcattle superficial knowledge so frankly there's not a single thing of value whatsoever you can bring in besides shooting in Ash into her vagoo.
This thread seriously gets more and more retarded by the day.

This. If your main character doesn't have an eidetic memory of every side character then I simply can't remain immersed or relate to them anymore.

Hey it would be fine if the POV was an OC, but you're asking in a Pokemon thread and using (You), context matters.

Memory loss and brain damage are CANON and they are the price that trainers with strong aura pay for overusing their abilities.

I GUESS IT TRENDED TOWARDS... A NEW DAWN.

Probably the wrong place to ask, but figure I might as well. As an author, how engaging is too engaging with peeps commenting on your stuff? Obviously spoilers and shit, but are there any other unpaid things to watch out for?

>>58136768
On spacebattles do batch replies and don't encourage guess 20 games.
On FFN the end of chapter AN is free game to reply to reviews, just make sure the AN doesn't take up a significant chunk of the chapter's word count otherwise it looks like padding.
Idk how Ao3 and Royalroad culture works but I've seen some authors reply to the majority of their comments so that might be fine.

Replying to tftc's is cringe btw

>>58105001

>>58136768
Honestly dude you should reply to every post you can on forums, even if its to call their theories stupid and gay (politely) but generally your goal should be to foster further discussion, encourage people to just talk about what they liked/didn't like, criticism, or their theories. As every post keeps your thread bumped, increasing the likelihood of more people doomscrolling the front page seeing it. It's a lot like baiting on 4chan. Don't give the ones that annoy you attention of course as it'll just encourage them.

>>58135951
The Natural by lightningwarrior215 because it the best "default jorney" fic amongst the few I read (and even there author grew bored and abondoned it, lol, says enough about this genre)
Someday, Home by vehlek because I am sucker for love and honestly that was one of the best novels I've read.

>>58137024
Man I was gonna read it as a cringekino piece.

Damn, I almost never hate any authors for their works or actions, but deleting works cause "muh, not enough comments" really makes me mad. Unforgivable actions of a starving attention whore

? Please elaborate, I'm a retard
>FFN Author's note
Tfw I didn't know there was an author's note on FFN.
For replying on Ao3 (at least for me) it's not an issue as discussion doesn't "bump" the fic, and usually commenters on there have something to say.

>>58137024
Oh and I was upto 5 too. Fuck me and that other guy who agreed to read it I guess.
>>58137681
I've seen authors crashout over hate comments and delete everything before, they only really upset the people that actually like the work and wanted to see more of it. Meanwhile the detractors get a free W.

>>58137913
He means collect the replies to the previous commenters into one big singular post. It's to prevent clogging up the page with spam.

>>58137914
>they only really upset the people that actually like the work and wanted to see more of it.
Goddam THIS! Plus it feels like the author is punishing their fans for not commenting and such, which at its heart means the author really just wrote it for views. If you're going to do it "just for the views," that's okay, but then you gotta cater to an audience.

I am introducing Tera Orbs in the next arc of my fic. Nobody will be using dumb sovlless rings and you cannot make me.

>>58138346
The moment a SI uses it as his original finding it will get popular

In a pokemon battle, the aura of conflict is so intense that even commanding a pokemon to use a move requires effort. That's why trainers shout out their attacks and only experts can stay quiet, it's physically and spiritually difficult to have a pokemon do anything without a trainers orders, otherwise they lose control and act more like chaotic beasts they do when they fight in the wild, except for the really dangerous and experienced wild pokemon

>>58137913
>>don't encourage guess 20 games

Someone guesses something, you give them a half-answer, they guess again using the information you provided them, you give them another half-answer, repeat ad infinitum.

>>58138399
I like to think the old and experienced ones have been in so many battles that they can intuit what must be done most of the time, requiring trainer intervention way less often.

>>58138399
confusion is just disrupting their aura which is why they can break out of it and why they hurt themselves in BACKLASH

>>58138346
>not including the sovlless rings but giving them horrible yet-undiscovered side effects that will harm any pokemon and trainer that's used them
Unnatural shortcuts to power are secretly bad things in 99% of fiction. Would you guys really trust something that can brute force emulate the stone that turns Palkia into a retarded armless centaur? Your ass is catching aids and your pokemon's catching reverse-pokerus and in 20 chapters you're gonna discover it was all part of some evil guy's plan.

Kinda hard not to use the omni-ring when it's the only way to dynamax and tera your Pokemon outside Galar and Paldea

>>58138765
Just make dynamax and tera works outside their respective gen regions.
Gamefreak did this, you should too. The only reason they have that obtuse restriction is to lazily justify not including the gimmicks in future games.

>>58138765
just make up something that lets it work outside of the region
you have full creative freedom with your writing

>>58138765

It sucks when you're reading a half-decent fic that would genuinely good if not for the author shoving in their IRL hang-ups, childhood traumas and general personal issues into the fic and the narrative.

This now, which is what made me post that post.
You just can tell the author still hasn't been able to move on from their childhood poorfaggotry or their school bullies experiences.
Based on real life experiences? Cool beans. But there's a "something" that just makes you tell it comes from a place of butthurt and unresolved issues that years later still keep them awake at night.

>>58139046
why do you think they're writing pokemon fanfiction in the first place

>>58138946
I’d probably care more if I cared about romance as a genre.

>>58138520
You're SOOO right xister btw humans shouldn't get on trains either because their brains will explode because of the speed. The body isn't meant to go that fast and if you think about it it's a shortcut to power and none of the characters in the Bible ever got on one

>>58139201
You wouldn't inject a train into your bloodstream to ride the rails without using a real train.
And you definitely wouldn't pirate a distilled train and compress it into a ring form which would then radiate into your bloodstream to let you ride the rails without using a real train.

Yes I vaccinate my Pokemon, do you have a problem with that?

>>58139220
Do you use natural vaccinations with weakened pathogens or do you use Aether foundation's artificial protein vaccinations that are known to not do their job while also requiring frequent booster shots that each time cause side effects that are arguably worse than the diseases they protect you from?
Let me guess, your pokemon are AI generated holograms.

>>58139249
AIbro pokemon need vaccines because they follow AI generated health and training tips that weaken their pokemon's body and soul.

Isn't it kinda fucked up that Sada's (canon btw) autistic obsession not only brought horrific fanmons into existence, but also retroactively made them always be real? The Paldean Empire fell after trying and failing to breach Area Zero for a thousand years, how many deaths is she directly responsible for? How many lives did her prehistoric nightmare creatures claim over centuries, millenia—all over trying to meet OCs she saw in a book, not to mention her parental neglect turned her child into a homosexual.

Are her and Terapagos objectively the worst villain mass murderers in the history of the franchise?

>>58139928
>villain
No, nature was worse because the retard thought that Pokémon are friendly when they're more than willing to ESCALATE following their instincts.

That's why you beat them up, to show who's boss

>>58139086
I'm telling you to.

Personally I'd just pick whichever works for the story (i.e. thinking of using the whole "they're from alternate worlds" thing for a fic where characters traverse worlds) but which path do you choose in regards to the true origin of Paradox Pokemon?

>>58140149
I'd just say they're creations of Terapagos, so if you can justify Terapogos being in a setting in any way, you can justify them. They''re (mostly) interesting designs, and seem to make excellent Pokemon for an antagonist (or a group of antagonists) to use. Throwing one onto an antagonist's team just seems to fit if you want them to be a major threat but not have a legendary Pokemon or something. It also depend's on your story's power scaling.

I just do.

Static activates? Undo paralysis.
Levitate? The ground moves upwards.
Lightningrod? It just doesn't work.

Mold Breaker's distribution is retarded as well, what could Basculin, Excadrill and Haxorous possibly have in common?

>>58141301
They are have a sort of sharpness to them. Basculin has sharp teeth, Excadrill has drill claws, Haxorous is an axe dragon.

Yeah but they follow the in-universe tech bs so its a good way to show their advancement without ripping stuff from our world.

Any fics where the SI is a techchad? I've seen lots of professor-wannabes but there's a distinct lack of mad scientist protagonists, even though science and tech are such a large part of the pokemon world. Team Rocket are the franchise's most popular antagonists and they were building mechas and contraptions every other week.

>>58143096
>>58143098
If the arms you designed specifically to punch harder AREN'T punching harder, you simply need to improve the design. Breaking a robotic arm also hurts a lot less than breaking your actual limbs.

I always thought Ash was poor compared to his friends, and the new cast too, btw

Genuinely what the FUCK is her problem, why is she such an asshole to everyone. Nemona and Arven are nothing but nice to her but she still puts them down constantly and makes snarky little comments every chance she gets. And her fucking attitude, what a drag—if you don't want to be in the room, fucking leave! Constantly whinging about every little thing, bringing the mood down, contributing nothing, but you wouldn't guess it with how high and mighty she acts. Like she's gracing the place with her very presence, what a bitch.
She doesn't deserve friends. She deserves to keep getting bullied for being a weirdo loner, and unpleasant to be around. She also reeks like shit. Actual fucking criminal, btw.

SV's story should have been a rehash of R/S/E, with Tudo and Sada being eco-terrorists trying to modernize/revert the region, maybe as the heads of political movements so they're not outright criminals (outwardly, anyway). We could've gotten divorced couple squabbling kino with Arven caught in the middle. The MC would for whatever reason help their version's professor, and Arven would become the protégé of the other one, which would lead to a sibling rivalry dynamic between the two. It would take both professor's combined expertise of past and future to stabilize the time machine and save the world, and maybe you could have one of them still die at the end for the added drama and to pull the other one out of their autistic obsession.
Team Star was completely unnecessary and lame.

>Redeemed Lyssandre has a chance of being real
Fucking hell, are they seriously going for the "bad people aren't a thing in the Pokémon world"?

>>58146008
Redemption of Lysandre wouldn't be so bad, the trend isn't as bad as some people make it out to be. Lusamine's retcon is just so egregious that its soured people to it.

The villains from the last two games (three if we count BDSP) are still just as bad at the end as they were at the beginning. Volo is stilk determined to find Arceus even if he destroys the world, Cyrus still hates the world, and the paradox professor died being so selfishly obsessed that he programmed a robot to be unable to work against its own better judgement against his plan.

Doesn't matter what the games say. Doesn't matter what Gamefreak says or the players say. Doesn't matter if the whole community says Lysandre is redeemed.

When the mobs and the press, the whole world tells you he's redeemed, it's your duty to plant yourself firm in the river of truth and tell them "No, Xerneas redirected the energy of the Ultimate Weapon directly into Lysandre and turned him into a freakish crystalline man-tree trapped in an eternal waking nightmare, doomed to forever live out a twisted mockery of the perfect, unending world he dreamed of."

Yeah. Every evil has a motivation but it's still evil. Same with redemption, just because you stopped harming others or even did so for a good you believed in doesn't take away what you did. The blanket pardons are pretty bizarre and diminishes the actual weight of a villain's evil.

>>58146417
The suffering would end if someone breaks it so it should look like a beautiful art piece people preserve and cherish from destruction for centuries to match his obsession with beauty.

>>58145299
Could I train him so his poison only melts female clothing?

>>58147070
And increased sensitivity along with opioid like effects.

>>58146008
That'll only be the case if Ghetsis is redeemed. He's literally the Pokemon antichrist.

>>58147316
Don't tempt fate, bro. Colress nuked a city and he was chilling in Alola.

>>58147550
again, he said sorry

>>58145299
Is it smiling or frowning?

>>58147550
Those were mob characters. Its OK to freeze dry them.

Wooooow

Like, look at this thing >>58145299
They just can't help themselves. Everything has to be gagshit one way or the other. All the edges sanded off.
Even Sada/Turo had a "um akchually your parents loved you very very much" tacked on at the end right before the AI Sada/Turo fucked off.
Franchise hasn't had any real edge in at least a decade now.

Either way, if you truly wanna blame "something" for muh redeeming you should blame how they got massive cold feet with Lusamine. That they went and have done all they could to bury OG Lusamine is a clear sign that that's something they will NEVER try again no matter what and are utterly scared shitless of anything ever being capable of being perceived that way.

I fucking hate how few posts we can quote now because otherwise it's "spam" fuck you gookmoot no wonder this worthless shithole is dying and people keep moving out to the other site and discord and even fucking plebbit.

Good, edgefags are insufferable

>>58147831
I find it pretty odd that you used the character who went insane and was murdered by a pokemon to leave their son an orphan to be your example of the series being dumbed down. Hell, with the inclusion of ogrepon's storyline we've got more pokemon with confirmed kills than the rest of the games combined.

Why exactly was Lysandre wrong again? The Pokemon world resets every so often anyway, OUR HERO just wanted it done on his terms.

>>58148141
Because he was letting richfags in on it, he should've done the opposite and only allowed poorfags into Team Flare.
That would've made for a better story.

>>58148141
Because he's French. A frog in a well dares think itself possess the authority to decide when a world resets?

>>58148141
Would Lysandre be right to kill off Cynthia and the rest of the Celesticans or what

>>58148155
Richchads are genetically superior and are the born leaders fit to rule our species. I do agree he should've allowed more poorfags to join though, all those temples and palaces for the rulers of the new world weren't going to build themselves

>>58148155
If you'd actually played the game you'd have known that Lysandre was killing all the Flare members too, exactly for that same reason, because their reasons to join Flare made them ugly too. They were just useful idiots for funding.
But no one here or anywhere here plays the games. Just shitpost and parrot what the previous parrot parroted from the previous previous parrot.

>>58148233
>But no one here or anywhere here plays the games
Don't lump everyone together just because one anon made a mistake.

>>58148233
OK so who was even going to be alive by the end, just Lysandre and the sciencefags? Did these super geniuses understand that you need fucking people to continue the human species?

>>58148249
He was trying to kill everyone and everything. He's Cyrus but psychopathic instead of autistic.

>>58148227
>>58148233
SO AM I GENETICALLY SUPERIOR TO PUERTO RICAN CYNTHAINIGGERS OR WHAT

ANYONE WHO DIDNT GO TO NYU IS INFERIOR TO ME

Literally what the FUCK was his problem?

>>58148289
He tells you it himself.
>I was giving to charity a lot and the praise made me feel really good! But then the praise became less because people got used to my charity, and that REALLY upset me! How dare these filthy poors not praise me as their savior at every moment? REEEEE I'm going to kill everyone!

>>58148297
What could have fixed this, pussy? Beatings as a child?

>>58148302
Depends on his level of mental illness. Pussy could be a cure, but after the honeymoon phase passes he could go through egomaniac withdrawals. Beatings might have worked, but that assumes he was doing anything worth being beaten for as a child that he could have learned from and that was associated with his egomania.
I think being a pokemon breeder could have saved him. Newborn pokemon are especially loveable, and by being a professional breeder he'd constantly have fresh batches rotating in to appease his ego.

Pokemon solve all problems.

>>58147550
That was a reference of nazi scientists working for NASA after the war

>>58148302
>>58148321
Diantha and Sycamore should've been better friends to him. They should've noticed him becoming a sperg sooner. Malva should've grown some fucking balls and not gone along with every little thing he said.

>>58148302
Nothing. He was a vain and foolish person who was in love with a fiction he cooked up in his head, then blamed the world for not matching. All that could have been done was someone preventing him from taking the actions he did.

>>58148302
Evidently, a fat laser cock of infinity energy up his ass.

>>58148266
What if they played X tho

>>58148464
Cyrus would still be autistic.

>>58148464
Was he trying to make everyone live forever in X?

>>58148464
The weapon still functions the same whether powered by Xerneas or Yveltal, the only difference is that by being near it when it fucked up the firing it may have blessed (you) with immortality like AZ.

>>58148436
The Lion enforces his fiction upon the world.
