    Introduce Your Characters!

    Since enough time has passed, I've decided to make a new post instead of editing my old one to boost the thread a little! --- Name: Michi Koizumi (art by me) Species: Human Gender: Female Age: 12 Appearance: Tohjoan (Japanese) by ethnicity. Physique typical of a girl her age. Mid-length...

    The Festival of Masks

    As the bird and the ape from the play showed up in the flesh, Kohath raised his brow. This was an unexpected development. They'd come back from the dead? That shouldn't be possible. Not unless they had come back as ghosts who had now taken on their old appearances, and at that point, who's to...

    The Festival of Masks

    His conversation with the old woman over, Kohath made his way to the crowd of the play that had been spoken of before. He sat down on an empty seat, his view of the stage clear thanks to his height. Kohath stroked his beard. The play seemed to depict the fable central to this festival. He...

    The Festival of Masks

    Kohath wanted to ask more about this 'camera', but the woman was already leaving. "I am Kohath," Kohath introduced himself, bringing a fist to his chest, "king of the Helixians. Fare well, Satomi Kurusu. Enjoy the festival."

    The Festival of Masks

    "I have heard that there are houndoom in cooler, more humid places that are fiery rather than of the earth," Kohath said, scratching his chin. "Perhaps that is the same kind." He listened to the woman's explanation. "I see," he said. "Those mon are not native to my region. It is interesting to...

    The Festival of Masks

    "I see." Kohath, of course, had additional questions. What was this fuel made out of? What was an 'engine'? How did the energy of burning turn into the motion of the wheels? Was it similar to that contraption Helix had built, the one where water was boiled to become steam and it would push the...

    The Festival of Masks

    As Kohath looked around, it was immediately clear he was in another time and culture. He did, however, know enough that he could recognize the place as some kind of festival. Then the old man spoke, confirming his suspicions. He supposed that whatever was translating the others' speech to him...

    Pokémon Hunter, Haunted

    Thanks for the review! Gastly are able to create illusions in the anime, like in the episode with the infamous mongoose and Venustoise. Since I don't think it's addressed in the story: sapience is required to speak human languages (unless you're just parroting words), but there are many...

    Pokémon Three Times I Carried You

    Hey! Here to review this for Catnip. Insatiable, I think. I like this touch of the AI having superhuman sensory capabilities, being able to pick up motion a human couldn't. This kinda made me stop and think for a bit. Wouldn't she have a memory of a hallucination instead? This is a legitimate...

    Pokémon The Bringer

    oh my god my naive ass thinking trials could be done in a day. i underestimated bureaucracy and you're to thank for those! thanks for giving me the idea of journals in the discord. the year being small is probably never going to get addressed so i'll tell you that it's the amount of years that...

    Pokémon Journey

    Here to review Chapter 7 for the Roulette! Sorry I'm late. I see, so he was in a "war" on pokémon rather than a human-human war. Interesting. I have to stretch my suspension of disbelief a little at an evolution method not being public in the age of the internet, even if trainers are...

    Pokémon PMD: The Villain's Valentine

    Alright, so, hi. I was not actually intending on posting this story in parts but as one long oneshot, but today I started wondering if I actually should finish it to begin with. What started as a comedy turned into a children's cartoon level drama and I am not happy with it, but I have sunk 6500...

    Threadmarks: Tohjo & Sinnoh

    TOHJO & SINNOH General Tohjo is the collective name for the nations of Kanto and Johto. Due to their geographical closeness, their cultures are similar. The Tohjoan faiths are polytheistic, containing many gods, but the ones worshipped depend on the specific faith. Tohjoan families typically...

    Pokémon Religions and Myths of the World

    Hey all! This is kind of a worldbuilding doc for HHverse that I made for myself to flesh out the world and the faiths within it. The plan is that each post will either be about one region or about several regions that are closely tied together. The first one is pretty long, but the rest of them...

    Pokémon 109 (2023 Contest Oneshot)
    Threadmarks: 109

    Hello everyone! The results of the 2023 Oneshots Contest are finally out, so I can post my little entry, too. I wrote it in just two days (iirc) because I couldn't come up with anything for the Legendary POV prompt before that, and even now it's questionable since I wrote about Spiritomb and...

    Threadmarks: HIM (revised)

    Hey there! Betcha didn't expect a new post in this thread, huh? Well, you're half right. For the past whatever weeks, I've been working on a revision to HIM, one where we see waaaayyy more of Kohath and Helixian history. The start and end of the story are still mostly the same, but there are a...
