Giratina Core Volo Au
This is an old au i made last year but never really released it anywhere other than telling a few people but that's it lol so I decided to publish it! I was pretty proud of these sketches and said "You know what? I should share this with the world!" And so that's what I'm doing now!
(P.s, This isnt a complete au and I'm not an expert when it comes to writing so please bare with me lol)
This Au starts right after Volo has been defeated by Akari. Volo, has already left and started to have deranged thoughts after being crushed by Akari's team. After feeling so hopeless, Volo decides to take the matter onto his own hands. He thought that if Arceus won't come after all he did, he's gonna find Arceus, even if it meant by force. He plans to use Giratina's power to get to Arceus but Giratina wasn't exactly willing to lend him their power after the battle against Akari. Volo manages to find a way to use Giratina's power to open gateways to other worlds, thinking that it'll lead them into Arceus' domain.
Meanwhile, Akari manages to find all pokemon and encounter Arceus. She finally manages to catch it and return to Jubilife Village. She and Ingo has caught up onto their adventures and started to figure out ways to go back to their own world.
I didn't think much into this but basically, they team up together to find different methods to get to their own world. Their methods clashed with Volo's and ended up being a huge catastrophe. Volo used whatever he could to strengthen up Giratina so Giratina's portals are a lot stronger than usual. Akari tells Arceus to open a portal back to their world. The strange hisuian portals and the amplified portals giratina made ended up clashing with each other, which ended up affecting Akari, Ingo, Volo, Arceus and Giratina.
Volo ended up in Unova in the present time. Giratina was nowhere to be found. The impact of the portals affected Volo and ended up losing some of his memories. He doesn't remember what he was plotting, why he was there, how he got there, but he does remember his name, small pieces of where he used to live and that he was looking for something in particular. He was lost in an unfamiliar world with nowhere to go and without his memories. He notices a sign that says "Welcome to Nimbasa City". He doesn't recognize the place at all so he decides to look around. Volo looked at the water near the area and notices his reflection. He lifted up his hair out of his eye and notices his right eye has turned black with some strange black lines coming out of it. He slowly covers it again, feeling so surprised and confused. Later on, a familiar subway boss finds him and offers to help him out.
His name was Emmet
I'm gonna leave it here for now
Akari and Ingo does have more story to them but I still gotta plot on a few things but yeah
This is the part where i dont have much written down but do have some ideas in mind. If enough people are interested to hear more about this au then feel free to let me know lol

Vessel AU: Pecharunt's Rot
The vessel au is about powerful legendary/mythical pokemon taking up human hosts/confidants e.i like Resirham and Zekrom would want hosts that embody their ideals for comfort and human connection or e.i like Arceus needing a helping hand in the form of turning someone into a puppet and guiding them along. Could be malicious, could be co-habitable and comfortable.
Kieran draws the short end of the stick.
Kieran finds Pecharunt before returning to the blueberry academy in Unova and strikes a deal. A devil's bargain.
Kieran is given strength and more willpower to become the best and strongest trainer, in turn, Pecharunt in brought to new lands and hitches a ride with Kieran.
Pecharunt isn't strong enough to just dip in and out of physical reality, it's no legendary, but it takes the form of Kieran's hair band and a 'scarf' instead to stay close.
While Kieran trains to become the champion, Pecharunt spread's the toxic chain to the pokemon in the terrarium. It corrupts the pokemon and infects the pokemon with malice and poison. The pokemon get stronger, but they also get weaker.
So does Kieran. He sleeps less, eats less, he's so unlike himself that Carmine can't even recognize her little brother anymore.
Unbeknownst to both Kieran and Pecharunt, their bond and traits are so similar, they blend into one another. Fusing into an amalgamation of toxic mentality of winning and never accepting losing, of take take take until they're nothing left.
Kieran starts to look stranger, act stranger.
(Also I threw in Volo because the main story of the vessel au has him getting no attention whatsoever from any cool possessive dieties so I had to give him more L's)
(feel free to use the design with credit!)

Hello tell me anything about your Volo au
YEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSS TYSM FOR ASKING ABOUT IT OMG OMG.
Okay, so, I'm gonna split this post up into sections, summarizing parts of the au since it's not fully fleshed out yet, but omg i have so many thoughts.
The sections will be: The Beginning, Overall Plot, Trainwreckshipping Plot , and The Ending.
The post will cut off after the Beginning section so you can decide whether or not you're interested enough to read the rest of the post.
Ready?
OKAY, here we go:
The Beginning
So basically the au starts out kinda like the movie starts out.
Volo's having a bad day, and then: boom.
Train accident.
On a rush on his way home, he discovers his bicycle's breaks don't work anymore, and speeding down a hill, he gets hit by a fucking train.
HOWEVER, he wakes up moments before the crash, and with what little consciousness he regained, he serves out of the way before he reaches the tracks.
Completely baffled, Volo goes home and decides to do some research into the phenomenon, where he finds out that what he experienced is called a "time leap"
___________________
Overall Plot
He leapt far enough during his accident that he landed a few moments in the past, there in saving his life.
Diverging from the movie plot: later down the line it will be revealed that Giratina is the reason for his new found abilities. It gave him the ability to warp time and space so that he may free it from it's prison.
Throughout the plot of this au, Volo will delve further and futher into his research, leaping time and time again. Losing so much as he becomes more and more obsessed with pokemon deities until ultimately he goes mad, and releases Giratina with the plan to destroy and recreate the world.
_____________________________
Trainwreckshipping Plot
Anyway---
Back to some less serious minor plot points.
Volo attempts to recreate this phenomenon by jumping off of several surfaces in his apartment but sadly, fails horrendously. (Loser didn't have enough momentum, smh, Giratina is cringing as we speak)
He injures himself pretty badly and decides it's not worth it, before going to sleep and deciding to go in for work the next day.
Here's where the Volo x Emmet comes in;
Now a fucking pedestrian, Volo takes--- you guess it, the subway to work.
Volo's kinda freaking out internally the whole ride because--- imagine getting killed by a train and then taking that very same train to work. (I hc their tracks sometimes go above ground, so--- yeah- It was their train Volo got hit with.)
Emmet sees Volo, and the condition he's in (he got all bruised up from jumping off of stuff the night before), and like the sweetheart he is offers him help.
Nothing much, just to escort him to the ER.
Volo politely declines bc he has to work, to which he goes to work, has a horrible day, and is promptly fired.
Fed up with this shit, once back at his apartment, Volo decides to try and time leap one last time.
He backs up, gets a running start, and jumps off the flight of stairs.
And he succeeds!!!
But also, he fucked up.
He ends up back at the stairway to the subway earlier in the day, and much to his dismay; has still effectively thrown himself down a flight of stairs.
He tumbles down, and lands harshly against the platform at the end of the stairs, right when the train pulls up, just in time for Emmet to see.
Fucking horrified by the fact that someone just came flying down a flight of stairs (Emmet assumes he was pushed by somebody), Emmet comes rushing out and promptly abandons his duties for the day to take Volo to the ER (Volo is really banged up now, dark bruises, bloody nose, the works)
Volo and Emmet keep in touch and become close friends (Ingo doesn't mind this development, he's always happy to see his brother make friends)
Somewhere down the line, Emmet comes out and confesses that he developed feelings for Volo, to which Volo freezes up in terror, goes home, and jumps back to the moment before the confession.
Volo isn't sure how to feel about this development.
He never thought about Emmet that way... He doesn't hate him, or even really hate the idea of dating him, he's just--- scared.
Emmet is practically his only friend.
He's scared of altering the dynamic they already have by either accepting or rejecting him, so he just rewinds time and tries to avoid the topic that lead to that moment. (In case your wondering; yes, Volo runs away and fucking jumps off of a high surface to avoid answering as soon as Emmet confesses, what a loser)
But it just happens again.
And again.
And again.
Emmet loves him so much that--- no matter what route Volo takes, he always ends up confessing.
After the third time, with a bit of frustration Volo snaps and declines.
Emmet is shocked by this, he's not mad he said no, but hurt that he yelled and acted like something was wrong with him.
He just lets out a defeated "...Okay." and departs.
This effectively ruins their friendship, which is ironically what Volo wanted to avoid.
After a while, Volo realizes that--- his life is much... emptier, without Emmet. He misses his smile, his laugh--- even the bluntness, and obliviousness...
He misses him.
He was the only thing outside of his research that--- he ever looked forward to...
A few weeks of loneliness and brooding later, Volo takes a running start and jump out of a window, and lands moments before Emmet's confession.
In tears, Volo accepts this time.
Though happy and cute at first, their relationship will begin to be strained as Volo slowly loses his sanity. (Emmet will be extremely concerned, to which Volo will continuously push him away. Even though Emmet will try his hardest, there's only so much of that one can take.)
___________________________
The Ending
(TW for Suicidal Ideation and Suicide attempts)
So now, you're probably wondering, where's this going?
Where's it all going to end?
In reality, I dunno what all I'm gonna include in this au besides what was stated above.
But I do know...
No matter where it goes--- No matter what highs he may have---
Volo will recognize his misery, and attempt to end his own suffering.
He will climb atop a high building, and take one last leap, in the hopes it will end his life...
And as a result... he will fall out of the sky, and land in Hisui
... :)
The end! <3
If you made it this far, thank you SO much for reading, I appreciate it immensely!!!
If you have any further questions, or even suggestions for plot points I'm ALL ears!!!!

I saw the Akari Arceus aspect, and it's very cute! Love that Akari gets to have a little buddy. Having the fourth starter option as God would be cool. In the au, what are the others' reactions? Does any of them get more suspicious of Akari? Does Volo recognise her new cool looks? Does he start screaming yelling crying etc when he finds out? I'm very curious over the degree of mental breakdown he'll have over this situation. Thanks!
Oh yea it would be really fun, especially since absolutly no one would have a clue what pokemon fraction Arceus is. Not even Akari.
Which would be an issue, Akari and a strange person just fall from the rift and later Akari gains aspects of said pokemon when only the Wardens are supposed to be able to do that? There's a lot of extra distrust from Kamado especially early on.
Though I can see someone, maybe Ingo, comparing fraction Arceus to a deerling he vaguely recalls some merchant guild member describe years ago.
With a conclusion that Arceus is most likely just some regional varient, ancient extinct evolution, or far future evolution of a deerling the total fear and mystery surrounding it fades to normal levels of distrust in Akari and her partner. Especially when it get's it's own entry in the pokedex
Volo on the other hand, likely still has his suspicions.
Upon realizing though, ohh I can see him absolutely loosing it. Maybe even thinking that if he killed Akari and captured Arceus then he would inherit it's favor thus it's aspects and power.
