    Pokémon Drowning

    Hey! So glad to see you here. And for whatever reason I hadn't noticed Continental Divides--I definitely need to check it out now! I'm such a sucker for Team Aqua and Team Magma :love: Bot things end up getting covered in later chapters! I appreciate the feedback on them. I had written this...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 3

    Chapter 3 Maressa trudged down the wooden dock. Behind her, the forested hillsides stretched without end. She glanced back—a few miles north lay Route 118, and just west of that was Mauville City. Home. A wave of nostalgia washed over Maressa—but at the same time, she felt no desire to go...

    First Anniversary Event Planning

    I was not here for any previous RP/mafia game, but I think they sound fun! I also like the idea of drabbles prompts and a joke art exchange. Tbh I'll take part in whatever is decided, but the ones I mentioned are my favorites :)

    Threadmarks: Chapter 2

    Chapter 2 Maressa tightened the ties of her bandanna as she stared at her reflection. Closing her eyes, she straightened up, took a few deep breaths, and looked at herself once more. She tried to keep calm but her reflection only showed how anxious she was. She paced back and forth, sat down...

    Non-Pokémon Keeping Friends

    Thanks so much for the review! I initially didn't notice that anyone had commented here so it took a while for me to see this, haha. Yep, all of the characters here except Bakura/Yami Bakura are made up by me. In Season Zero, Yami Bakura revealed he had a TON of human figurines that he had...

    Favorite Video Games?

    Oh man I LOVE Skyward Sword! It was my first Zelda game (I didn't grow up playing them, I started playing when I was a teenager lol) and fell in love with it for the same reasons you described. I later played WindWaker and then Ocarina of Time and Twilight Princess. I played Four Swords...

    One-Shot Contest: Myths and Legends

    No worries at all! I vaguely remember there being discussion one time about the authors being anonymized to prevent bias in judging, and I can respect their decision to stay that way. Thanks! For whatever reason, I didn't realize before that only the top three are placing. Will there still be...

    Pokémon Of Light and Darkness

    Hi! I thought this was a fun read and that you did a good job of making it accessible--I've never read The End but felt like I was able to follow along pretty well. I also noticed the Christian influence with Xerneas portraying God and Yveltal portraying Satan--it had a strong Chronicles of...

    One-Shot Contest: Myths and Legends

    Thanks so much for organizing this, Negrek, and to Dragonfree, Umbra, Chibi Pika and OldschoolJohto for being judges!

    Visualization and Reading/Writing?

    Same here. I always read in a person's voice, including things in real life. If I don't know what someone's voice sounds like, I have a sort of "default" for men and women that plays differently. And I tend to skip things very, very often. If it's a novel or a scene, I always imagine it out as...

    You have made us for Yourself, And our hearts are restless Until they rest in You Credit for the banner goes to Sketchie at Serebii! Rated PG-13 for violence and some swearing. Chapter 1 I should have been a pair of ragged claws Scuttling across the floors of silent seas. The storm...

    Non-Pokémon Keeping Friends

    Hi everyone! I've been on the forums for a bit now but haven't actually posted anything, so I figured I'd post this one-shot. It's based on the Yu-Gi-Oh! Toei Animation "Season Zero." Enjoy! “Aw, crap,” Megumi whispered. Burying her head in her hands, she leaned forward on her desk just as...

    One-Shot Contest: Myths and Legends

    Also ambivalent. I decided to not go with the story I had been writing and am instead using an idea I started putting down a while ago (but never posted anywhere). Most of my real-life responsibilities have been canceled so now I have a lot more time, so I think I can get it done in a week. An...

    One-Shot Contest: Myths and Legends

    @Namohysip congrats! Welp, my first draft is mostly-finished at 8,000 words. Once I write the last bit, I just need to edit it. So I'm hopeful I'm good to enter? It might work better as a three-shot, what with the large word count... I'll decide at some point over the next ten days what to do...

    One-Shot Contest: Myths and Legends

    I'm already over 3,000 words in and not close to finishing... I may try to come up with something new; I'm not sure if, after finishing my first draft, I'd be able to edit it down to less than 10,000 words ._. ;

    The story behind your story's name?

    Glad someone else loves Princess Mononoke as much as I do! One of my first fics was going to be Princess Mononoke WITH POKEMON but I realized that would be stealing so I quit. lol. Noooooooooooooo I refuse to believe it. That card made such an impression on my younger self, lol I like reading...

    First Pokemon fanfic you remember writing?

    Oof... My first fanfic was posted on Serebii waaaay back in 2008. It was about an invincible girl with psychic powers who had an invincible Eevee that could evolve into every possible Eevee-olution and de-volve back into her normal state (I made up some sort of explanation for it but I don't...
