  • 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.

    Inner Focus Training Arena

    Jade started a bit at the thought-speak. Now that was rare for a non-psychic. "Ah, you'd be surprised," she said with a small chuckle. Not that she really felt like getting into spending so much time around the Pokemon that a lot of people thought of as gods. She turned her attention back to...

    Inner Focus Training Arena

    Jade waved back. "Uh, not yet. I haven't actually started searching yet," she admitted sheepishly. The idea of investigating alone was vaguely uncomfortable, but maybe that was just her old Rebellion training at play. Best to stay in mission groups. At Laura's side was a massive Noivern...

    Threadmarks: Day 2 ~

    <><><><><> Alright, so... investigating. Jade really didn't have the first clue on where to begin with investigating. None of her experience back home was relevant here. Not when her time on the Rebellion revolved around a known enemy with a known location. Finding clues was so much easier...

    Jade smiled faintly. Hopefully things would work out for him back home. She glanced at her watch. It was getting later in the afternoon, and she still hadn't managed to find anything important to the disappearances.. "I should probably head back to town, but it was nice talking with you,"...

    Dazzling Lake

    Oh geez. Note to self, this kid was in real bad shape; seemed like just about anything got him scared out of his wits. "It's okay, no one's saying you have to hide yourself. He just thought maybe you'd want to," Jade said quickly, throwing a glance at Nine. He gave her an indifferent stare...

    Dazzling Lake

    Jade rubbed the back of her head. "I guess I can't know why without any context, but like... I just met you. It wouldn't really make any sense." Maybe for a Pokemon with a lot of anti-human sentiment, sure. But why would a human be mad at him for... being human? Nine's birdlike stare was...

    Dazzling Lake

    “I mean…” Jade struggled to find the right word. “Of course there’s stories about it, but it’s not something that could actually happen, right? It’s like, something out of a sci-fi or a fantasy or…” She trailed off. “Or like what happened to all of us,” she conceded with a sigh. “Mad at...

    Dazzling Lake

    Jade nodded sympathetically. "Yeah, I... feel like I probably wouldn't like being in the spotlight." A lot of people were dying to be champion, but it wasn't for her. "I'm glad that there's good things about it, though." Jade blinked at Gen, utterly perplexed. "'Used to be human'? What...

    Dazzling Lake

    Jade glanced at Wallace. "I... know what it's like to end up in a life that you didn't expect," she admitted, shuffling her foot in the damp earth. "Do you... like being champion?" Jade stared at the Oshawott. "That's so weird..." she muttered. "If someone had taken you away, why would they...

    Dazzling Lake

    "'Just woke up there'?" Jade echoed blankly. "You mean like... kidnapped?" He was a Pokemon that could speak human, and that wasn't normal even in his world. Maybe some shady people had taken an interest in that. But then how would he have gotten free?

    Dazzling Lake

    Jade relaxed slightly. "Ohh, okay." Yeah, that made sense. Flying all the way back to Johto from Hoenn sounded like a real pain. And taking a ferry that far was pretty expensive. "So I guess you... weren't Coleane's starter then, if you're from Johto?" Jade asked, puzzled. There went her...

    Dazzling Lake

    Jade blinked at him. "Whoa, what? You, uh... you definitely don't need to battle if you don't want to, you know that right?" Was he... captured without his consent? But that would go against the pact, and... Coleane sure didn't seem like the kind of trainer who'd hold a Pokemon against their...

    Dazzling Lake

    Jade chuckled weakly. "Well, I guess my team's pretty special. I wouldn't have gotten anywhere without them, really." Jade paused, unsure how to take that. She'd been a bit exasperated at Nine for being insensitive when they first met Gen, but if compliments also made him uncomfortable, she...
  14. Chibi Pika

    Dazzling Lake

    Jade tilted her head at the Oshawott. "Well, you can speak human--I think that makes you pretty special, you and Coleane both. But I guess she's aiming to be a champion, and she's a Pokémon who's a trainer, so it's not hard to see why she'd be invited here." A Pokemon with a surname was sort of...

    Dazzling Lake

    Jade blinked. "Champion of Hoenn? But I thought Steven was..." Different worlds. Right. "Right, I'm still getting used to this whole different worlds thing," Jade admitted, rubbing the back of her head. "And I guess most of the people here are either champions or aiming to be champion?"...

    Dazzling Lake

    Jade shrugged. "I guess we're doing okay. I mean, we're still here." That was probably not the best way to put it. "Anyway... I guess we got invited the same way everyone else did. We both needed a break back home, and he's not really the sort to relax unless he's dragged into it." Not...

    Dazzling Lake

    Jade turned at the sound of a young-sounding voice and saw the human-speaking Oshawott waving to her--his name was Gen, right? Sitting next to Gen was that one trainer in the super-flashy outfit. Jade vaguely recalled he was a gym leader, but she couldn't remember his name (Rudy definitely...

    Dazzling Lake

    Overall, the prospect of not being able to trust anyone outside of a small group wasn't too hard. Jade was used to keeping a low profile. Sometimes she forgot that that wasn't exactly normal. Some of the trainers had been confused and disturbed by the idea of being targeted by an unknown...

    Torrent Beach

    Ugh, this was all too conspicuous. There wasn’t any way to learn anything here without standing out. Jade couldn’t help wincing at all the people willing to demand answers right away. That was how you made yourself a target. Nine was tense, alert, ready for a fight. Jade knelt down and...

    Torrent Beach

    Signs of a struggle. Disappearances. Yeah, it was too much to ask that this just be a normal vacation, wasn't it. Still, it was better than dealing with Team Rocket. For now. Jade took a deep breath. "There's a lot of us here--we shouldn't have to worry about being attacked so long as we...
