pls force me to Do Things with my dang stuff, probably. If I could get some prompts about fairies (as in the fae, not necessarily fairy-type pokémon... but hey...) and fairy tales, that'd be neat! Thanks!

Filled out the prompt for Temporal Tower!

============

Tick, tock.

Pillars crumbled, the rubble freezing in midair as it fell. A Treecko and a Piplup ran past, determined to reach the summit in time.

Tick, tock.

A pure seed was consumed, warping the duo to the stairs. There was no time to waste.

Tick, tock.

Even with their determination, their movements began to slow. The blue gears in their bag were beginning to lose their glow.

Tick, tock.

At the top, a pedestal fell off the tower.

Tick, tock.

The Treecko and Piplup suddenly, froze, movement of any sort becoming an impossibility.

Tick.

Tick.

Temporal Tower had collapsed.

Filled out the prompt for Emera!

=============

An expeditioneer returned home after a dungeon trip, setting their bag down next to a bucket of water, in which a transparent sphere soaked.

They took out a bottle from their bag, filled to the brim with rainbow dust. Emera powder, the lifeblood of a mystery dungeon, and a powerful resource.

They dumped the bottle in, and then with their tail, stirred the water until all the emera powder was dissolved.

Already they could begin to see small emera crystals on the sphere, and a light became visible within the sphere.

Soon, the escape orb would be ready for use.

Filled out the prompt for Rainbows of Hope!

=================

Even with four rainbows representing hope overhead, Post Town was not bereft of conflict.

A Ducklett and a Roggenrola got into a heated argument, causing the end of their friendship.

In front of a Gurdurr's eyes, a Duraludon knocked down a building he commissioned. Losing all hope in his construction abilities, he turned to a life of crime.

Virizion received a letter from her best friend, one that stated that their friendship was over. She vowed to never make friends again, if this was how it would turn out.

As Post Town lost its hope, the Rainbows of Hope faded.

Filled out a bonus prompt drabble for Lucario the Hero!

================

An Abra, a Charmander, and a Larvitar were lost in Oddity Cave, stuck on the fifth floor.

"I-is anyone there?" the Charmander asked. "I'm starving..."

"Come! Over here!" an unknown voice shouted.

The three, hesitant, but out of options, followed the voice, coming to a Lucario with an escape orb in paw.

He shattered the orb, and the group appeared outside the cave, safe and sound.

"Stay safe out there," the Lucario said, before running off before the trio could thank him.

Years later, following in the footsteps of the Lucario who saved them, the three formed Rescue Team ACT.

Love a good tarot prompt! I'm happy to pick out some major arcana for you, but just so you're aware, I saw the green prompt before you crossed it out and was going to give you "Shiny Pokémon" as an option. Just so you're aware of the kind of high quality content you're missing out on! ;)

dead serious I showed this bingo grid to an irl friend and it took her five seconds to figure out that I would immediately go for the top row because 1) reading past the first line is hard for both of us and 2) she hasn't even read the fic and she knows that these are the edgy thematic archetypes that I crave. this is the most aggressive callout I have received in my entire life.

fills below bc idk what thread they'd go in. thank you again for hosting; this was such a good idea and I had such a blast!

Seems I'm not too late to sign up, by a stroke of luck heh.
I'm still fairly rooted in writing about worldbuilding or setting elements, but I'm not the most interested in 'venturing out' a lot since I basically haven't written anything beyond maybe a paragraph of lore here or there in months. I'll probably try and walk a line between vignette and encyclopedia entry regardless.
So hit me with idk, Pokemon Contests? With maybe some general journeyfic / fanregion prompts thrown in?

Thanks to everyone who's been posting your bingo fills (or links to them) in this thread! Please remember to do that so I can credit you for your pokémon partner, if you'd like one. I'm also going to put together an index of prompt fills so that anyone who'd like to can find them easily! As discussed on the Discord server, I am also extending the deadline for completing a bingo to May 14th.

Another batch of bingo cards here:

Unfortunately I'm not familiar with Diamond and Pearl Adventures. I can give you more generally Sinnoh-related prompts, or you can choose a different theme if you like.

What aww. Sure go for it, more Sinnoh prompts. I just wanna write some DPA. Also everyone should totally read it at some point because it's great. The ending is a little rushed but all the framework for it is set up.

Hey uh, not to rush or anything but it's been a few days since I asked for a Sinnoh board. How is that coming? I'd like to get started soon.
