  • Our "Weird and Wonderful" one-shot contest is now underway! Pokémon are strange and magical creatures, and for our writing contest this year, we want to see you higlight some of their oddest abilities and features! From stories about luxray thieves using X-ray vision to scope out targets to those about trainers bewitching opponents with their stantlers' mystic antlers, any sort of fic featuring a pokémon's unusual lore is welcome! Entries are due at 11:59 PM July 13th UTC.

    Sharpedo Bluff

    The Astonish stunned Turf, and then the fire and electricity that followed from both sides left her with no way to dodge, let alone with stand the flanking onslaught. She wailed, and the shadowy haze around her, still shaped like a Totodile, roared and lashed out randomly, leaving huge gashes in...

    Sharpedo Bluff

    The blast stung and broke something in Brisa, but compared to the Gyarados from before, it didn't hurt quite as much. Still, another hit would make it hard to stand up afterward. And there was something peculiar about this strike, those strange shadows, that made it hurt just as a Mud Shot would...

    Sharpedo Bluff

    Wish's delay did nothing to ease the suspense in the air. Surf stood with her breath held, clasping her claws together as if to join Celeste in her superstitious advantage-hunting. Turf was trying to get out of bed in the meantime, rolling until she was out from under her covers. Her lower half...

    Sharpedo Bluff

    "What?" Surf gaped. "What do you mean, ominous black mist? I don't know what you're talking about, she's just... sick! She's not--are you seeing things?" Turf groaned, but her voice had a low garble to it, like she was speaking through rustling leaves. "Surf... I..." Surf rushed over and held...

    Sharpedo Bluff

    There wasn't much that Surf could do to object to that. Her huge jaw clenched, but her eyes were sad and hopeless rather than defiant or apprehensive. "Just be quiet when you come in, alright? And stay behind me." Surf turned around and descended into the little hole atop Sharpedo Bluff's top...

    Sharpedo Bluff

    A Croconaw emerged from Sharpedo Bluff a few moments later, saying, "Look, thank you for coming, but Turf needs her rest, and--oh. You guys." Surf hesitated, her claws still digging into the lip of a satchel that bobbled with berries and other healing supplies. "You guys are feeling better...

    Sharpedo Bluff

    "Mhm." Surf crossed her arms, frowning. Then, with a defeated sigh, she said, "Well, I guess I should get going so I can get more of this medicine to Turf... If you guys can somehow break through that Magikarp's immunity, you should focus on that first. See you." She walked past them and toward...

    Sharpedo Bluff

    "Lum and Oran, mostly," Croconaw replied, frowning. "It's something you give if you aren't sure what's wrong, so you kind of just throw everything you can at once..." She sighed. "It hasn't been working, but it at least makes her feel... a little better, I think. She tried to straighten her...

    Sharpedo Bluff

    Plagues are a part of life. But I suppose a supernatural plague would warrant an investigation... "You think you can, huh?" Croconaw said. "Well... I have to go and see how she's doing. She's too weak to leave; I had to carry her to the evacuation area, and then I forgot her medicine. But we...

    Sharpedo Bluff

    Oh, yes, blame me, of course. Croconaw didn't look very convinced. "If you guys are the ones that are trying to fight that thing... good luck. I bet if Mom and Dad were here, we wouldn't have this problem at all, but... maybe they're getting caught up in saving some other crisis again." She...

    Sharpedo Bluff

    Croconaw stepped out after them and closed the door behind her with a huff. "How come you guys are here, anyway? Where are you from? Because you picked a bad time to show up..."

    Sharpedo Bluff

    "...How--how many X-Eyes are you on?!" Croconaw shouted. "You come into our home, and now you're criticizing me about productive discussions? Why, I oughta--" She stepped forward, but then some of the contents of her bag spilled out and she hastily picked it up. Among them, there seemed to be a...

    Sharpedo Bluff

    Croconaw puffed out her chest. "I'm gathering the last of our belongings. I can't believe you didn't know that Team Spice lives here!" She snarled, slapping her tail on the ground and stomping her foot. "...Everyone does. So you aren't even from here? Or are you outlaws trying to disguise being...

    Sharpedo Bluff

    "HEY!" It came from seemingly nowhere--a blast of water from the left, just around the corner, from the huge maw of a Croconaw. The blast was incredible--even though it had missed Nip, intentionally, it left a clear carving in the wall behind him. "What do you think you're doing?! Shouldn't...

    Sharpedo Bluff

    The westernmost point of Treasure Town led straight to a high cliff. Leaning to the side would allow for a clear view of how the cliff had been carved into the shape of a Sharpedo emerging from the land. The wind was strong and the salty air overtook most other senses, despite how high the...
