Some notes for myself... abilities I don't believe are currently listed in the first post and some other info on resources. Weavile's known attacks: Poison Jab / Ice Shard / Icicle Crash / Swords Dance Items in Bag: Badge, shriveled Reviver Seed, Hyper Potion 2x, Revive, X Speed

All right, the contest results are in, several pieces have been published already, and revisions on the remaining ones should wrap up soon! At this point, I'm hoping to have all illustration and writing pieces that have already been assigned in by October 20th so I can begin compiling them into...

All right, I've updated the results posts with links to where each story can be found--as best as I know! Thanks to everyone who sent me links to where they've posted their stories, and another entreaty to please get those to me so I can add it if I don't have it already! For those of you...

Welcome to the forums! Love the energy in your post here--taking on a long chaptered fic is a big endeavor, but I'm glad you're determined to stick it out for the long haul. Good luck with your story, and feel free to give a shout if you do end up getting stuck or just want to talk through your...

Gotta be a bit quick here, but let's see... I'm a bit worried that Weavile may not have anything too defensive in his moveset. From what I can tell, we've seen him use or used ourselves Ice Shard, Triple Axle, and Night Slash, and from our first encounter with him he used something that moved...

Nice! Enervate worked perfectly to slow Dark Matter down for a bit; that was a good call. Maybe if he catches up again we can convince him to work with us instead of against us? Especially because Weavile seems to believe that whatever happened to Kyurem is the same as what happened to...

I admit, I am a bit confused as to why Dark Matter's attacking us here! I thought he wanted us to go to Kalos to deal with Xerneas, which is exactly what we're doing, so... yeah. Maybe he thinks we're trying to run away, not heading towards Xerneas? I am kind of inclined to at least try talking...

when your lovers' feud is interrupted by some sort of interdimensional voyeur ruh roh lmao. I love Darach. Well, shit. I absolutely should have considered that N was a zoroark here not because that's just how he's always been in this setting, but because he's had some encounter with the PMD...

Hey, I remember you! I think you were on TCoDf at least briefly a long time ago, yeah? Good to see you're still around and taking care of Poliwager. I'm tickled that you found us through Marginalia. I've gone looking for other fansites there, too! I really ought to start a thread for web...

Hell yeah! We love some new abilities, and these are some particularly fun ones. Always love to see the way you make the mechanics work together with the flavor, Namo. :quag: There's definitely a contradiction in there somewhere. Ugh, I really need to go back and reread the exposition we've...

Thanks for the update! Good luck getting everything wrapped up here--I know you're excited to get on to other things.

There we go! That concludes this year's "Magical but Mundane" one-shot contest! Another huge shout-out to the winners, the judges, and of course all of the writers who put in time and effort to make this another wonderful one-shot contest. Writers, you're welcome to publish your stories now, and...

"Work Ethics" by Wildboots Third Place Eevee Flight Monday morning begins, as it so often does, with technical difficulties: the cable car is stuck at the top of the hill again. I swear it breaks down every other day, but of course the city can’t be bothered to fix it. A grinning hiker stands...

"Trueno" by Spiteful Murkrow Strumming and then sounds you recognize as guitar and drums joined with something more electronic. You blink and glance rightwards, your feet pattering against the cobbled streets in this square as the guitar wails. “How’s the music, Juliana? Things coming through...

"Perfectly Imperfect" by Lord Knee Everything had a little soul in them. From a young age, it was a sentiment Mildred’s parents expressed more times than she could count. It would appear in the off chance she sustained a bruise playing outside, all between the application of a bandage and...

"Past, Present, Future" by ErazonPO3 Second Place Eevee Flight The train screeches to a halt, and Luculia’s hand tightens around the strap hanging overhead. Somebody stumbles into her and she stumbles into somebody else, but she remains on her feet— and earns a red welt on her palm for her...

"Ordinary Things" by Farla Anywhere the police show up is somewhere Billy shouldn't have been five minutes ago. But Billy zoned out watching Arlie sitting in the corner of the playground piling handful after handful of sand into a growing mountain, and the window for getting the hell out of...

"Lather Up, Luxray!" by scrivenernoodz Third Place Pikachu Flight It was true. Pokémon battles hadn’t thrilled him lately. But that had nothing to do with the espresso machine Volkner was building in his bathroom. The fact was, five shots stirred into tap water and a vanilla éclair at The Solar...

"Hexatious" by Robo At moments like these, Murielle couldn’t help but muse about the nature of fate. Not that such a thing wasn’t expected of her; in fact, most folks would figure that someone of her inclinations would have especially firm opinions on the intangible forces that be—hence the...
