  • 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.

The Morgue: An Index of Exquisite Corpses

Exquisite Corpse Index

Exquisite corpse is a party game originating in the early 1900's and originally popular among surrealists. These days we play a version updated for the internet, and usually with a pokémon twist: everyone who participates writes one scene of an ongoing story, while only being able to see the last two sentences of the scene before theirs. The stories that emerge are wacky, unpredictable, and always a good time! We always cap off an exquisite forpse by reading it over our Discord voice chat, then posting the complete story here on the forums for everyone to enjoy. This index collects them all in one place to make it easy to check out what our authors have been up to over the years.

We usually run a yearly set of exquisite corpses during the summer months (sometime in June-August), so if you'd like to get in on participating in our next batch, keep an eye on the New and Events forum around that time! Until then, feel free to browse our corpse collection below and enjoy the stories produced in years past.
