A glimmer of a smile reappeared on Koa's face. Her words heartened him. It was true, by now he had enough to afford all kinds of items and such. "You're right," he said ruefully. It felt a little silly to worry about such things when he knew better, but the reassurance still felt good. "What...

"I know all that. I mean, I do now. Losing is part of being a trainer, and I have to accept that. But..." he chewed on his next words for a few moments. Fear and frustration flickered through his eyes. "But this was different. I didn't just lose or get knocked out. I was... crippled." The words...

Koa's jaw tightened and he reflexively swallowed. The memory of being silenced like that still lingered like an open wound. For a moment, he gazed at the sky, watching the clouds crackle and flash. His eyes narrowed. "I tried to call out you know," he said finally. His old anger flared briefly...

Koa snorted. The colosseum battle. After asking around he'd found out something was up with it. And clearly it went beyond the Miracle Matters just having strange powers. "I don't know what to think," he grumbled finally. "But we fought great. And we won. So I guess that's all that matters."...

Sometime before their final battle... Distant rumbles of thunder rolled across the charred landscape, the air carrying a charged scent of ozone. Seemingly endless gray skies stretched as far as one could see, matching the ashen earth. Small sparks danced across the ground and over blackened...

Koa seeks out Xernatus, to check in on him, find out what he's gonna be doing when all this is done. He also asks him about helping in the final fight against the Blacklight, and tells him that he'd love the chance to fight beside him.

The brief tingle of Radiance washed over Koa, leaving behind a sensation of warmth. He smiled ruefully, and nodded. Icetales was right. Echo had even told him something similar, earlier. He put one paw around around Icetales in a hug. "Thank you," he murmured. He stepped back, letting his gaze...

Hoopa breathed a sigh of relief as the last person exited. A tremor shook the skies and nearly shook a ring right out of Hoopa's hands. A distant roar echoed through the now empty dimension. Yep, time to go. With a final snicker, Hoopa manifested a ring for themself, and disappeared.

Awww, how sad. Perhaps they'd bring them back sometime for another fun game. Something trembled again, very faintly, but just enough to rattle Hoopa's rings. Hoopa gestured to the large ring portal they'd opened. "Just hop through the portal. Don't take too long, Hoopa wouldn't want this...

Old lies jumped to the tip of his tongue. He could laugh it off or deny it or make up another version. But this wasn't Sinnoh. He was worlds away from home, in the company of someone who would forget him in just a few weeks. After a moment, Koa nodded stiffly. He didn't feel much different...

Hoopa had been watching everyone's antics play out with a sense of glee and delight. Everything had gone so well! Well... except for some of the screaming and crying and shouting bits. But even that was fun. Maybe they could keep doing more- One of Hoopa's rings trembled, a motion completely...

Koa nodded, taking in Icetales words. He let them steep for some time, listening to the waves and the wind. The anger, which felt so familiar, yet washed away by hope, and the unwavering will that Icetales posssesed. It was perhaps one of the things Koa liked best about him, the way he always...

"Yes... it's safe," he said, trying to inject some kind of happiness into his tone. He'd always be grrateful that legendaries intervened, that the world was safe. And yet... "Icetales-" Koa murmured, not quite looking at him. The question burned in his throat, but the words didn't come for...

Wrote 1k words the other day

Koa nodded. That was true, he supposed. At the very least, the fact that they'd done so much here showed he was capable of doing the same thing back home, if the oppostunity arose. "Oh, thank you," he said, slightly surprised. "I guess I hadn't thought of it from that angle before. I guess if...

"Well, a hero is someone who uses their power to help people." Koa did his best to keep his voice steady, even though the somewhat odd question caught him off guard. "Someone who's willing to sacrifice to try and save someone, and never give up, like Team Spectrum. So I guess that's what makes...

Art & Drawing Resource Masterpost I've long realized that there's a need for an easy spot to gather good art resources in one location! My goal is that everyone will be able to add their own personal experiences or resources they've gathered that helped them, and it'll be in one easy to find...

"Hoopa have a fun idea! Steplively sing a song! Yes, Hoopa dare you to sing... 'I'm a little teapot' and do the dance!" They'd seen that song and dance before, and it was funny. But maybe they could do spice things up more, yes. "Hoopa show you!" Hoopa touched their forhead to Steplively's for...

Hoopa was having a ball. This was such a good idea! Jess looked so funny, and Antares display had been amazing. "More!" Hoopa cheered. They twirled through the air and booped Steplively gently on the snout. "Truth or Dare?" [ @Phoenixsong ]

Old anger flashed through Koa. "He got what was due to him alright," he growled. "Giratina dragged him straight into the Reverse World." He stared down at the ground and drew circles in the sand with his paw. "I guess he got away from all those 'imperfections' he hated so much," he said softly...
