  • 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.

    Really glad you both enjoyed it! In the end, I'm just glad I had at least one person to move things along so I could actually get the story out there. In the end, that's always my goal, to tell a story no matter the crowd size. I guess in this case I was able to walk the walk. It was fun. Never...

    "I think I know," you say, "what you mean, Yveltal. And... if such an arrangement is possible..." You hold your hand to your heart. When you look down, you realize that little motes of light are already leaving it. And somehow, you feel less 'yourself.' Less... plural. It's already happening...

    That heaviness doesn't go away. It occurs to you that this is... different compared to the other times. It's slower and it feels like it's plunging you deeper; you're staring at everything like you're already a hundred miles away. Distantly, you see a plane making an improvised landing, though...

    "It's not over! Don't accept defeat yet--everybody, wait for an opening, and then let's strike together!" It's all you shout, even against Dark Matter's groans of defeat. Ice coalesces above you as you raise your arms. Your wings spread wide, keeping you stationary in the air, waiting for that...

    "Quick! We need to stop that Geomancy at all costs!" you roar over the increasing buzz that seemed to be coming from all of the vines around you. Geomancy... That was going to be a problem quickly. "Trying that," growls Dark Matter. He takes aim at the core as well, blasting it with a beam of...

    You wonder if there's therapy for amalgamations hitching a ride on a god. Your first act is to get Xerneas' attention. Dark Matter, while strong, is a much larger target--and you suspect Xerneas will do a lot of damage to that body compared to you, who can probably dodge the worst of it. Plus...

    "Thanks for your help Millie! You've done all you can - Dark Matter and I will take it from here. See if you can find N!" Millie nods, spotting the crack. She'd taken a few nervous steps back at first, but now she's full-sprinting away to get some cover and find wherever N had gone. You wonder...

    "It means we've got what we need!" you shout. "Now let's move away from the entrance - I have a feeling those plant enemies are about to chill out!" "Are about to what?!" Thankfully, the safe is far from the entrance. The vines concentrate around Millie, perhaps recognizing the danger she now...

    "Just focus on entering the passcode! I'll keep you safe!" you call. "Easier said that done!" Millie cries, sprinting for the safe as Lily hops out of Millie's purse. She fires several volleys of Shadow attacks, which seem to keep the roots away briefly, but they're nothing compared to your...

    Your first instinct is to hop to the roof and find an entrance there. Perhaps, as part of a flying god of death, the idea of taking an aerial approach comes naturally. Still, a second of consideration reminds you that Millie is still human... probably. You admit, her life aura feels slightly...

    Things are getting strange. Creepy, even. And apparently you are the amalgamation of dead spirits and the literal god of death... and this is creepy! "Millie," you say. "What were you staring at? Should we check underground?" "No... I think it's... the roots," Millie replies. "I guess I had a...

    Something about this makes you nervous. Quietly, you ask Weavile, Do you know who Floatzel used to work with? Any thoughts on who might be down there with them, or did they usually work alone? You're answered with uncertainty. Weavile has no idea. Different divisions, and separated by a lot of...

    There's a lot to think about and the flight, while long, feels like such a fleeting moment. Agonizingly long in anticipation, yet too short to get anything done. It's all speculation and planning. They could relax, or try to, but... Preparation helps. You quietly converse with Weavile on your...

    Yes, You think you have a good idea on who should be coming for this, and who should stay behind. They still had things they could do in Unova to try to keep things stable here, after all. Bringing all of them would be risky, right? Not to mention you are still not sure how dangerous it will be...

    "You look torn on something, Millie." You decide to start with the obvious thing in front of you. "Is there something on your mind?" "Oh, well, I..." Millie looks down. "Does it really have to end here for me? Going back after all this... I probably won't have a job for a while anyway. City's...

    With Dark Matter apparently preparing to leave in advance, Dark Matter's aura finally leaves the vicinity. You are confident you won't be corrupted any longer. With that, you sigh and step toward Millie. "Sorry about all this, Millie... I know it's a lot to take in. Are you holding up okay?"...

    You break the silence. "Are you doing all right?" "No, but that's normal." You sigh. "Does Kyurem have any memories or anything else that might tell you what happened to them? And... are you handling the corruption okay?" "...Yes. I believe I am handling the corruption well. In fact, there...

    You stare at Kyurem a while longer. Thoughts range in your mind. You see four options, and only four, at first. But then, you start to consider... perhaps, there is another way. A risky way, but one where you do not need to cast aside one of your key allies in the name of power. You quell...

    For now, you resist the call. Perhaps that is Yveltal urging you to claim a stronger body. You sense some of Weavile's panic and quietly assure him that it isn't your plan just yet. "I could use Yveltal's power to possess Kyurem, and that might give me the power to overcome the corruption in...

    "Thank you, Dark Matter. Your help is much appreciated!" You have no idea if it heard you. You have other matters to worry about first. "N! Are you able to hide the car with an illusion?" you shout while pinned to the ceiling, doing all you can to get free and find a good vantage point. None...
