  • 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.

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    Starr raised an eyebrow. “Well, I could always beat the shit out of it. I don’t think that’d do anything, but I’m not gonna complain if you ask,” she said with a forced grin. Maybe the bit of levity would cut the tension. What she didn’t expect was for a shadowy reflection of herself to kneel...

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    Well, that pretty much answered that. Starr wanted to say, ‘was that all?’ but it didn’t seem all that helpful. “You know like half the team felt like that at some point, right?” Starr asked, giving him a hard look.

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    Starr ran a hand down her face. "That all sounds like shit you'd want to have figured out, yeah. I would've assumed that was it. I don't know, maybe your shadow's just bitchier than the others. We're not gonna be here that much longer. Think you can hold out 'til then?" She didn't want him...

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    Starr gave another sigh. "Well, I'm not exactly an expert or anything..." Why couldn't Brisa or Owen be the ones handing this. "But I guess that sounds right. Stuff you're lying to yourself about." And she was nothing if not good at lying. "Look, whatever the hell your shadow keeps going...

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    Starr rubbed the back of her head. "Eh. I haven't seen mine since what happened on the moon. And well, that happened to everyone, even people who're pals with theirs." As far as she was concerned, if it didn't feel like showing its face anymore after what happened there, then that was just...

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    Starr let out a long sigh. "Well, if Owen or Brisa were here, I know they'd say something like how you haven't really accepted it, or whatever. But then, those two just straight-up talked with their shadows, so..." Starr trailed off, eyeing Koa's anxious expression. She knew the kid had shit...

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    Starr hesitated. "Mostly shit I already know," she said, trying to sound casual. "That I hurt people. That I can't erase the past. It's like... I already know all of that." She exhaled slowly. "I've already beaten myself up over it a thousand times over. Don't know what the damn thing...

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    Starr paused, raising an eyebrow but otherwise not reacting much. He wasn't serious, was he? Even the most denial-saturated members of the team had learned otherwise by now. Her shadow was the truth. No matter how badly she wanted to forget. There wasn't any changing it, and she was done...
  9. Chibi Pika

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    Starr blinked. She hadn't really thought about hers in a while... “Yeah, haven't seen mine since”—the moon—“a while now,” Starr replied nonchalantly. "I'm pretty okay with that to be honest. Anyway, it's not like I'll have to think about it once everything's done here, so I'm not too...

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    'Always', huh... The way he'd said it didn't really feel like a joke or an exaggeration. Starr put on a casual tone and said, "Yeah, never could really get behind the way a few people on the team went and made nice with theirs. I mean, good for them and all, but. Not really my thing."

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    Starr laughed again. "I mean, kicking ass as a Pokemon is pretty great, right? I like being human and all, but I'm not gonna pretend I don't like being this strong." Then again, part of that strength came from being a Pokemon, sure, but a lot of it was pretty weird even by Pokemon standards…...

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    Starr blinked at him. "Yeah? I'll be fine. Sure, things were a bit of a mess when I left, but it's not like I'll be alone for it." Maybe it was just having been away from it for an entire year. Or maybe it was taking down corrupted gods on the regular in Cibus. "I'm sure the me that wakes...

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    A distant smile crossed Starr's face. "You could say that, yeah. They're both total dorks with zero self-preservation and they drive me insane constantly." She paused, tail swishing a bit. "And I miss them." But it wasn't so easy to say that she was looking forward to going back home...

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    Starr rubbed the back of her head. "Well, it's gonna be nice to see my friends and my team again." Oh, who was she kidding. it was gonna be real nice. Even now she could feel her chest tighten at the thought of just how long it had been since she'd seen any of them. "But, you know. Feels...

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    Starr gave a low chuckle. "Yeah, no kidding. The three of us tearing our hair out trying to figure out how to beat him, turns out he burns himself out with that ultimate attack. Can't believe Brisa came up with that idea for me to tank all of that." Couldn't believe she'd also come up with...

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    Starr nodded at Koa. "Ah, guessing she's still at that guild thing? That's fine, I don't mind waiting for her to get back," she said, plopping into that old armchair that didn't fit Owen anymore, and wasn't a good shape for the quadrupeds, and so was pretty much only used by Starr when she...

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen
    Threadmarks: R17 Flashback ~ Someone you could have been

    Starr walked the familiar path to Brisa's place, tail swaying with each step. She wasn’t sure what the plan for the days was—some training with Brisa, maybe with Owen as well. More Overheat practice was always good. Maybe the three could grab lunch afterward. She knocked a few times in the...

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    “Surprised you haven’t already,” Starr replied with a chuckle. She didn’t think she’d be up much longer herself. Not with everything this relaxed.

    Rocky Road ~ House of Brisa, Dave, Koa, and Owen

    Starr's smirk didn't lessen. "You must be getting tired if you're being that mushy." She leaned her head against Brisa's. "You're right, though."
