Heyo!
Could I get a bingo card with a focus on the Kalos Region / Pokemon XY ? Prompts borrowing from release material of PLZA is also ok but I'd prefer nothing that would require a prediction about the plot/characters

Yo, I'd like to join this once again. This time, I'd like spooky Horror or just spooky themes in general. Wanna try practicing writing this genre.

Since I didn't finish my card last year, lets do a round 2 of occult/eldritch-y/macabre prompts!

All right, let's try a bingo card on the theme of hurt and comfort - which is to say, each prompt can suggest one or the other or both! I would probably be filling these with something related to my fics, so feel free to relate the prompts directly to a specific character or thing (if you have read my work), but they don't have to be.

coming right up! these are (imo) Morphic coded but I could see them fitting a few characters, so I left them a little more open. I took this as more emotional hurt/comfort, but happy to reroll if you want more physicality:

I've completed three of the prompts, where can I post them? Do I just make a new forum thread for it?
That's generally how people do it, yes! Some people have master threads where they just add their drabbles from this event, and any they might do for other reasons, as they go along.

I have now completed three of my prompts in a bingo formation - "Wild Life", "Captured!" and "Running Free"! Find them here.
Congratulations! You got those done in no time flat.

And now for the next batch!

@The Walrein

We love to see an unusual prompt! Full disclosure, I haven't watched any of these videos, so I can't vouch for their quality. Some of these are also theoretical challenges (i.e. proposed but no one on Youtube has tried them), and there's one "TCG challenge" as well--if these aren't in the spirit of what you're looking for, let me know and I can replace them.


@HelloYellow17

A mix of hurt/comfort and fluff for you. Enjoy!

I don't know if I'll escape the pull of oblivion long enough to write but let's try this.

I'll have a card please! with a few themed around anything in the sphere of whump, hurt/comfort, angst, but otherwise dealers choice or feel free to throw in a wild card

Hello!
I'd like a bingo card with something exciting and intense! Preferably not something from the POV of a pokemon as well.

Maybe I can pry several hundred words from somewhere. A bingo card featuring anything Hoenn would be lovely.

Found this one surprisingly interesting to come up with prompts for! Hopefully this is in line with what you had in mind
The nature of humanityHumane monster, monstrous humanA different way of thinking
A human transformedBehold, a manThe nature of ghosts
What sharp teeth you haveWhat brings us togetherEmpathy, or lack there of
Joining a little late this year, but could I ask for a card themed around "technology and engineering?" All tech levels are okay, I'm feeling pretty flexible.
Pulled from a mix of real life and pokemon.
Ancient machineryEngineering for spaceThe one thing the designers forgot to account for
TelecommunicationsNuclear reactorA structurally sound bridge
PoketchRotom DevicesThe pokemon PC system
Claps hands. Been waiting for this. This year I would like a bingo related to Fallers and Alternate Dimensions.
We love some good faller content
Otherworldly biomesEncountering yourself, but differentDifferent dimension, different pokemon
Hunted by ultra beastsLost memoriesEverything is the same except...
