Hello I am back with more lore questions about your comics if u wanna answer 👀 (I looked back, but couldn't find this mentioned so sorry if I just missed it 😅)
I was curious since the comic starts after all the main plot stuff has happened: we know El is the Champ of the Alola League, but did she also do the island challenge trials like in the game or was she just traveling around with Hau while he did his? If she did do the trials did you make up a reason why the kahunas would let her, despite being well over the age limit for it? If she didn't was there some other motivation for her building her team up enough that she could beat the league when it was finished?
We're basically playing out the original story of SM with some changes!
Tumblr media
Originally El just wanted a FUCKING VACATION and came from Hoenn after receiving a letter from her mom, to come to Alola and help her move into their newly bought appartement. But then Kukui busted through the door to welcome them and El's mom insisted on her coming with Kukui to get to know the locals while she'd continue setting up the place in the meantime. El didn't have any of her old Pokemon with her, as she heard of the strict laws of letting "invasive species" into Alola and she didn't want to deal with the paperwork, especially since she assumed she'd only stay in Alola for 2-3 weeks at best. Kukui showed her the way to Iki Town, talked about their customs, wanted to introduce her to the island Kahuna. When they couldn't find him, Kukui suggested he might be up Mahalo Trail, but stays behind in case Hala might come back from Hauoli City instead. El checks it out, she meets Lillie, the saving-Nebby-scene plays out where Tapu Koko rescues Nebby and El, El unexpectedly receives the sparkling stone from Tapu Koko that Hala makes a Z-Ring out of. Due to the incident, Hala encourages El to partake in one of Alolas oldest traditions as a way to get accustomed to Alolas culture but also to welcome her into it and keep an eye on her, with Halas and Kukuis interest being sparked by the appearance of their deity. The fact that she's way over the age of regular trial goers is not a problem, Tapu Koko must have given her that stone for a reason so Hala simply follows the will of the Tapus and is interested to see how El's journey will play out.
El feels honored being so welcomed by the Kahuna himself and is also too polite to decline partaking in the island challenge, even though she wasn't really interested in going on anther journey and building a new team of Pokemon...wasn't this supposed to be a vacation aside from helping out her mom??
But her mother is surprisingly supportive of El going on the island challenge, as she feared strangers like them from Kalos might have a hard time fitting in and making friends with the locals. She's okay with El not being able to help out setting up the house, as in her opinion "You're doing your part by learning everything you can about the region and getting to know our new neighbors."
After getting to know Hau the next day during a Festival in Iki Town, El starts to feel more like Hala specifically put them together so someone would keep an eye on Hau while the old Kahuna is unable to. Babysitting it is then. GREAT. But the innocent sweet little sunshine that is our Malasada Boy QUICKLY grows on El and she takes looking after him VERY SERIOUSLY and becomes the Mom-friend of the group. She downright enjoys looking after the shy Lillie and the joyful Hau while getting to see so many of Alolas amazing sights. She also greatly enjoys Kukuis company I might add...
Until she finds out he's taken. FUCK. GODDAMNIT. OF COURSE HE FUCKING IS AAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGG "No Hau I'm not depressed. No I don't act strangely hostile towards Burnet what are you talking about nooooooo pass me the Malasada Hau. EW. It's BITTER. WHY'D THEY SELL THAT. I HATE IT HERE"
Don't worry, she recovers... El really starts to get into the challenge after a while. She was never a fan of challenging Gyms and greatly enjoys the different Trials she gets to go on instead. Alola quickly becomes her favorite region for the lush beautiful nature, the incredibly kind people and the Pokemon she meets along the way. Her team is unbalanced, but that's what makes her grow more closely together with her Pokemon than any previous team she had before. Beating trainers is a challenge due to the many bug-and flying-types on her team, she has to strategize more than ever before to make it work and be able to defeat the Kahunas. Her Oricorio Sweets would become her Partner Pokemon in the end, when she survived multiple hits from Kukuis Incineroar, holding on to 1 HP multiple times because of how determined the little bird was and how much she loved her trainer, defeating Incineroar in the end.
Tumblr media
(This was my OG Team, only Sweets and my Golisopod Titan made it into the comics in the end, her Decidueye and Vikavolt are on Mohn's Pelago, Fletchinder I'd actually still like to include at some point)
El didn't expect to stay in Alola. She didn't expect to build a new team or even join the League or becoming CHAMPION of all things... Let's be real, Kukui didn't really give her much of a choice in joining. After Hau and El finished their island challenge, it was more of a "might as well join the League I just finished building" from the Professor, since before it was built, the final challenge WOULD have taken place on Mount Lanakila anyway. But what surprised El the most, was the fact that, after winning, she was offered the position of Champion by Kukui at all. IF she would have won, she thought, surely they'd not let a stranger like her actually keep the title and defend it. But NOPE. All hail Alolas first champion El I suppose. And with this, it was clear that El had to extend her stay in the region. For an...unforseeable time.

Being the son of Lenora and starting in Pokémon school on Alola… + getting your first Pokémon…
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Magmortar x Male Reader (Partners)
Warnings: Fluff
Summary: You’re the son of Lenora and you’re finally old enough to start you own journey as a trainer and you decide to start on Melemele island…
——
”Come on mom, hurry!” you said to your mother as you ran along the passenger dock. ”Calm down Y/n, were in no hurry” Lenora said patiently to her son. ”But mom the sooner we get to Professor Kukui, the sooner i can get Pokeballs and a Pokedex” you whined.
”Well at least your looking forward to see me” a voice said and you turned to see Professor Kukui and Ash and his Pikachj waiting. ”Hi Lenora, Hi Y/n” Ash greeted you. ”Hi Ash, Hi Pikachu, it’s been a while” your mother said remembering him from challenging her gym.
They took you and your mother to Kukui’s house where you would be living with him and Ash while attending the Pokémon School. After you settled in your mother traveled back to the Unova reigon.
And as you had hoped you received Pokéballs and a Pokédex so you could go explore the island and maybe even catch your first Pokémon. Ash and Pikachu were determined to help you do that and the three of you went out to the forest to try find a Pokémon for you.
As you looked through the forest you spotted a Ribombee and wanted to attempt to catch it but it spotted you and flew away. But you refusing to give up gave chase after it accidentally leaving Ash and Pikachu behind.
You ran further in to the forest until the Ribombee managed to get out of your sight. You stopped and look around the woods thinking ”Wait, where am i?”. ”Ash?” You asked looking between the trees.
”Ash, where are you?!” You asked louder but no answer came. Then you felt a drop of water on your head, then a second one and then a third one. After a while rain started pouring heavily, along with loud thunder and lightning strikes.
You ran through the forest trying to look for somewhere to take cover until the storm was over. You eventually reached a cave that you quickly ran in to. Your clothes were wet and cold as you got out of the rain.
You sat down and rested looking out in to the storm, hoping Ash and Pikachu had found cover. You opened your backpack to bring out the lunch you had packed but was interrupted when you heard a loud echo coming from deeper inside the cave.
Curiosity took over and you decided to deeper in to the cave. The deeper you got the louder the noises became. Then you came to the source of loud noise, it was a large red Pokémon laying on it’s back.
You brought out your Pokédex it said ”Magmortar, the Blast Pokémon and the evolved form of Magmar. It launches fireballs that can reach temperatures over 3,600 degrees from the ends of its arms and lives in volcanic craters”.
”Should probably try to stay away from that one” you said to yourself and turned to leave when it made a loud noise once more, it sounded like it was in pain. You knew it was a dangerous mission to try and help it but you were willing to take that risk.
You slowly approaced the Magmortar saying softly ”Magmortar, are you okay?” You said while getting closer, observing so it wouldn’t burn you. It looked towards you and immediately sat up growling, trying to swing at you with it’s arm.
But then it just fell over again laying on it’s back, writhing in pain. You tried to get closer but it growled angrily at you. ”Calm down, i want to help” you said inching slightly closer, but it was still growling with hostility.
You then got an idea, you opened your backpack and took out some berries you had brought incase you caught a Pokémon. You put them on the cave floor between you and Magmortar.
Magmortar stopped growling and smelled the air, smelling the berries. It reached out for one but winced in pain as it did. ”Don’t worry, i’ll help” you said getting carefully closer to it. It stopped growling but still looked suspiciously at you.
You held a berry to it’s mouth and it ate it cheewing slowly. You slowly fed it all the berries while soothingly petting it.
From then on it seemed to have accepted your presence as it stopped growling at you. You then sat down on next to it eating your own packed lunch while it rested.
While it rested you touched it’s forehead, it was cold, which probably wasn’t very since it was a fire type. So you got a blanket out of your backpack and draped it over Magmortar. Magmortar made a grateful noise. It reached out and pulled you closer.
You sat down leaning against Magmortar and rested for a few hours until the sound of rain outside stopped. By then Magmortar had started regaining it’s body heat and managed to stand up again without wincing.
You and Magmortar made your way to the cave opening together looking out in to the damp forest. ”I need to get going, i need to find my friend but it was nice to meet you, goodbye Magmortar” you said to it.
But as you attempted to walk away it followed you, you looked at it ”Do you wanna come with me?” you asked suprised. ”Magmortar” it growled happily. You brought out a pokéball and bumped it against the big Pokémon.
It went inside the pokéball which shook three times and then made a weird noise which you assumed meant you had caught it. You let Magmortar out and you wandered until you came across Ash and Pikachu.
”Y/n, i’m so happy you’re- Y/n, theres a Magmortar following you” Ash said in shock. You told him about the cave and Ash congratulated you on your first Pokémon.
When you showed Professor Kukui he was impressed you had managed to capture a fully evolved Pokémon as your first ever capture.
And when you had a video call with your mom and dad they almost had a heart attack when they saw Magmortar.

Professor Lucina Sada was used to giving presentations. She was used to seeing her fellow professors. Sada was even used to being called nuts.
She was not good with surprises. Especially when she was running on 48 hours of coffee and little sleep.
So, as she prepared her notes for her presentation at the conference, walking through the Great Hall of the academy, the last thing she needed was for someone to tap her on the shoulder. So, when someone did, she swatted away their hand, not looking up. Whoever it was didn't seem to get the hint, as they did so again. "Go. away. I'm busy." She growled through gritted teeth. Hopefully this wasn't a poor student she just scared again- Jacq and Salvatore refused to let her live that down.
"You know, it's considered rude to not look up at the person talking to you, mi corazón."
She froze. That voice...
Whipping around, she was face to face with Professor Andres Turo, fellow Pokemon professor, co-creator of the Tera Orb, and... her estranged spouse.
Who was now out cold on the ground following her fist connecting with his face.
Whoops.
Ms. Tyme was NOT happy with her reaction, stating she couldn't have waited until she was in private to punch him?
Hassel, Saguero, Salvatore, and Dendra had to pay Raifort after she won the bet over how long it would take for them to be in the same region before she punched Turo. Miriam is amazed at how fast she moved, while Jacq... he missed the whole thing, having instead chosen to catch up with his brother and cousins over lunch in town.
Kukui, who witnessed the entire thing, was laughing his ass off.
A few hours before the conference began, she went to apologize to Turo. After all, he didn't deserve to be punched (well, he did, just not like that). The moment he opened his door, she ended up punching him again.
Augustine ended up having to sit between the two once the conference began. He'd managed to get them to agree to speak in private later, just for now to please stop punching the man when children are around. Jacq was sat besides Sonia and her assistant Hop- his baby cousin, as it turned out- while Juniper sat with Elm and Birch. Rowan, Oak, and Kukui had found themselves at the other end of the oval conference table, Oak's grandson Blue nearby with Bianca of Unova discussing their friends and their habit of "vanishing without warning anyone". Lucas and Brendan were discussing regional variants and the mysterious 'Hisuian forms' that once called Sinnoh home. She knew Champion Leon of Galar had accompanied his brother here, but he had opted to explore the academy instead, stating he probably wouldn't understand much of what was to be discussed.
Sada figured that as they were all here, she might as well take the chance to explain the strange multiverse she had experienced. Kukui had already been filled in, having dealt with something similar a few years back, so at least he wouldn't think she was crazy... at least regarding this.
"Fellow Professors and researchers, I welcome you to Paldea's esteemed Naranja Academy. As you all know, it is here where Professor Laventon studied and is said to be inspired to create what we now know as the very first Pokedex." The director began, gesturing to a framed photo hanging up on the wall between Rowan and Oak. A man with tan skin, a bowtie, and curly hair smiled back from the image, a plaque beneath it reading Professor Laventon, shortly before his trip to document the Pokemon of the Hisui region. "Since then, advancements in not only what he first documented but beyond in the area of Pokemon research have soared far past what we can expect he ever dreamed of. A computerized Pokedex, studies into baby Pokemon, the rediscovery of the Fairy Type- thought to have been lost since he first documented it- and Mega Evolution, Z-Moves, Dynamax, and Terestalization are only scratching the surface of what we have done here. Why, our academy's own Jacq Sycamore created the very first Pokedex app to document and study the Pokemon of Paldea and the regional forms that live here." She paused to take a breath. Alright. Time to drop the bombshell she knew.
"And during this time, we have witnessed strange disturbances in space-time. Laventon documented what he called 'Space-Time Distortions' in Hisui, rifts in the fabric of time and space that dragged Pokemon from different places and eras to the location they formed in. We have seen in Sinnoh and Alola that such things are possible- that multiple universes can exist. What I have discovered recently is-"
That was when the door to the conference room opened and someone tumbled inside. Wearing a labcoat (a rather outdated one at that) and a purple hat, the person seemed to be confused and surprised, hugging a bundle of papers to his chest as he groaned from where he landed by Sada's feet.
Sycamore was already helping the man up, but upon seeing his face he scrambled back, letting go and accidentally dropping him. The room was in a stunned silence before Rowan, the most senior professor (or second most senior professor now) spoke.
"If I am not mistaken... Is that Professor Laventon?"
(Hehehehehehe Sada sees Turo- OHKO.
Sees him again- OHKO
so @askprofessorlaventon and I have been planning this for a bit now. If you follow my other Pokemon ask blog, @silentzoroark, you no doubt saw the beginning of this.

Got any team skull headcannons you could maybe write hehe I personally hc the grunts have rap battle night lol
Yes yes yes I have a thousand team skull headcannons omg thanks so much for requesting hehe ♡
• So the majority of team skull are kids who couldn't begin the island challenge and felt left out, or those who attempted the island challenge and gave up.
• Some of the grunts had just came from broken homes, and Guzma sympathised with them and let them stay instantly
• Friends or siblings or cousins of grunts then joined, and the team skull family got bigger
• I mean it's cannon Plumerina sees herself as everyone's big sister, and the grunts go to their big sis with all their problems
• Relationship problems, period pain, battling tips, and to Plums annoyance, to settle the dumbest arguments
• Plums tries her best to support all the kids, and give them 1 on 1 time
• She teaches the grunts life skills, such as battling, type match ups, gives advice on the best move set and so on
• She even teaches the grunts some cooking (not that she's great at it but she's a fairly decent cook), she usually supervises in the kitchen though as there's been more then one eight times incident in the kitchen
• The grunts who have an interest in makeup, Plums teaches them too. All of Alola may be fearful of Team skull but they can't deny their eyeliner is immaculate
• Yeah I can TOTALLY see them doing rap battles lol
• Every Friday night is rap battle night, and all the grunts are welcome to participate, the majority of everyone writes their own raps
• Many of the grunts know how to beat box
• Some of them will rap, others will back up the track beatboxing
• When Guzma joins in all of the grunts get so excited!!
• Both because the boss is in their presence, and because Guzma's sic on the mic
• They have game nights too
• They play loads of different games like Monopoly, Twister, Cludeo, they even play video games too
•It usually ends in boards being flipped, controllers being thrown and someone sulking in the corner
• Of course they have battle nights as well
• I mean, they battle every day, but once a month they'll hold a mini tournament and all battle one another
• It was something Plums came up with to help the grunts grow stronger together
• Spray painting is also a big past time of the grunts
• Most of them just tag places with the skull logo or some anarchy logos
• A few of the grunts are quite artistic about it, and all throughout alola you can see beautiful works of art that most would refuse to believe were created by a member of team skull
• And someone *cough cough guzma* spray painted ACAB on the wall of the police station
• Nanu hasn't bothered to clean it off
• In her spare time, Plumeria likes to watch anime and read manga, she has a secret soft spot for slice of life stuff
• If you mention it though she'll probably crush you.
• She also enjoys watching pokemon battles online from past champion defences or big matches from tournaments, she especially loves watching poison type trainers
• She's got a crush on Raihan from the Hammerlocke gym in the Galar region
• She follows him on social media and has seen all of his matches
• Its a secret dream of hers to battle him
• It's no secret Guzma holds a lot of anger towards Kukui and Kahuna Hala, but there's times where he truly does miss the times when he and Kukui were kids, and would just chill at the beach, eating malasadas and catching pokemon
• He misses Molayne too, and just the three of them doing absolutely nothing but cracking on and having a good time
• He would never admit to anyone, and it pisses him off when he has thoughts like that as he considers them weak and worthless
• Usually when he thinks about his old friends and the fun they had something ends up getting heavily destroyed
• When Guzma recruited Gladion as the enforcer of team skull he offered Gladion to come stay with them in Po Town
• Gladion refused, simply because the grunts annoyed him to point of going insane, and he knew it was best to be alone to get stronger, and he didn't want so many untrustworthy eyes of Null
• Plumeria and Guzma knew he was living rough, and felt bad for the kid, so Guzma fronted Gladion the cash for his motel room
• Gladion insisted on paying Guzma back but he refused to accept the money, stating to Gladion that it was nothing and in return he can back up the grunts when needed and do odd jobs for them
• Gladion was instantly thankful, though he had a difficult time expressing it
• Gladion usually had to defend the grunts against island challengers when they were loosing in battle
• The odd jobs consisted of many things, like stealing supplies from warehouses, finding and catching a specific pokemon, sometimes even doing drop offs for some not so legal products Guzma was selling on the low
• Gladion tried to keep away from Po Town and Team skull whenever he could, but the money was decent and Gladion was desperate
• He knew he had to feed his Pokemon, as well as himself
• He doesn't regret his time in team skull because he knew it was do or die but its not his proudest moment
• Gladion is always invited to game nights or rap battle nights by Plumeria but he always refuses, insisting he's got no time for nonsense with people below his level
• There was this one time he was at the mansion late delivering some stuff he picked up for Guzma, when a tropical rainstorm ensued and the trails was blocked off by mini floods, so he had no choice but to spend a night at the mansion
• It just so happened to he rap battle night
• Gladion hid in a corner watching in utter horror as all of the grunts danced around, spitting bars and blaring music throughout the mansion
• Guzma pushed him to the centre where he utterly froze and refused to participate
• This is where the grunts distsin of him really began, they already didn't like that he refused to live in the mansion and wear the team skull uniform, but they went absolutely mad when their boss paid for a motel for him too
• The grunts were jealous of the favoritism that Guzma showed Gladion, so when the boss himself wanted Gladion to rap and he refused, that was pretty much a death sentence for Gladion in the grunts eyes
• One of the grunt girls have a little thing for Gladion, and they're always overly flirty with him
• Gladion shows her no interest and is extremely uncomfortable with her advances
• She doesn't stop though, and overtime he just becomes irritated
• A lot of the grunts took this offensively that Gladion wasn't interested in their friend, just adding another reason to their hatred
• When the grunts gang up on him, it ends in pokemon battles, although there's been occasions its ended in a fist fight
• Plumeria always tries to keep the peace but even she has been at the blunt end of Gladions sharp tongue in the past
• do you guys remember when gladion called plumeria a whore in the manga omfg

Gary: Who did you piss off this time?
Ash: *slumping down in a chair next to Gary and the large as computer screens* it’s more like who I haven’t pissed off. 
-------------

Kukui: *walks into the classroom, see’s Ash blank face and staring at the other doorway where Kukui originally left though* 
Ash:
Kukui:
Ash: 
Kukui: you gonna keep staring or what? 
Ash: *broken out of the strongest dissociation spell in a long time**jumping out of his seat and making a fool of himself while falling down onto the floor* cheese and crackers on balls, you motherfucker-

A challenge// Kukui x M!Reader smut shot
Tumblr media Tumblr media
As requested @princeasimdiya12 :)
For my request, can you write a oneshot featuring kukui and a male reader with chastity and public nudity please? In the fic, the reader challenges Kukui to venture across town to reach a specific dating spot while naked and with his cock caged. If he makes it without being exposed or causing a scene, then he'll be uncaged and rewarded. But if he causes a scandal, he'll be kept caged longer. What do you think?
A/N: “I think I can try my best. I hope you enjoy. This was definitely a fun one to do,thank you for the request.

Requested!!! Kukui x M!reader
One shot
༶•┈┈⛧┈♛┈⛧┈┈•༶
It was a normal night in Alola, and you were hanging out with the professor as per usual, in his lab.
Sitting on the comfy green couch, watching whatever documentary Kukui had turned on. You found yourself growing bored within each minute passing you by.
Kukui had come out of the kitchen with a bowl of popcorn, approaching the couch and plopping down, right next to you.
“Somebody looks like they’re having a blast…” Kukui would smirk as he places the popcorn bowl onto the table
“I’m so bored….” You say, groaning. Contrary to his statement. “We’ve been binging these boring documentaries all day…”
Kukui shakes his head, chuckling lightly while placing his hand on your knee.
“Well, if you’re so bored Y/N, then…why not come up with something better than binging these…’boring’ documentaries, hm?”
He asked in a slightly sarcastic tone, assuming you were just having your usual “I’m bored spiels”
If only he knew you would take him up with that ‘offer’.
“Oh, I’ve got something in mind…”
You say smirking at him, grabbing the remote and pausing the tv, slowly crawling over to the handsome man, causing him to freeze slightly, and clear his throat.
“I have a small challenge for you professor~ one that I think you can’t pass up…”
You bite your lower lip in anticipation for his response
“Challenge…? Well, you know I’m always up for a challenge, sweetheart.”
He smiled warmly as he cups your face, brushing your cheek with his thumb. You smile at this, giving him a devious grin.
Feigning innocence, you tap your chin with your index finger a few times before speaking. “I bet you won’t walk to our date spot, Kala’e bay… being caged up…”
Kukuis eyes widened slightly in surprise before he smiled, grabbing your hips and pulling you onto his lap. “You’re a naughty little thing aren’t you…? Fine. Challenge accepted, it’s gonna be a piece of ca-“
“Nude.” You say, cutting him off from his sentence.
“Nude…? You mean—“
“Mhmm, you know? Make it a real challenge? Anyone can walk around being caged, but nude as well? That’s a true challenge, don’t you think?”
You ask with your gaze flickering to his lap, then back to his eyes
“Y/N… that’s…definitely a challenge….a risky one at that.”
“Mhmmm….”
Kukui looked at your hopeful face, considering the consequences, if something were to go wrong with this game you’ve so graciously chosen, he could get into—you could get into a lot of trouble.
“Y/N… I don’t know…”
You tilt your head in question before suddenly getting an idea. You lean in slowly and begin kissing his neck, causing a small gasp to escape his lips. You nip and suck at his nape, before leaving a small love bite on it. Knowing he would melt easily with this simple gesture.
“Oh come on, you’re no fun~”
“F-fine. Fine. What are the rules then…? If you’re even serious, that is.”
“Oh trust me Kukui, I’m very serious.” You smile as you separate from his neck. “The rules are actually really simple. Don’t cause a scene, and you get rewarded. Do cause a scene, and I’ll extend your little…prison sentence.”
“Do I get to wear my lab coat at least…?”
“We’ll see…”
You say with a mischievous grin
➴➵➶➴➵➶➴➵➶ ➴➵➶➴➵➶➴➵➶
Kukui is standing naked in front of you. Looking down at you while you’re wearing his lab coat, you prepare his cock for its rightful place. You smile up at him lovingly, as you gently place the cold, metal ring around his cock, lifting his balls one at a time into it in the process, securing them in place, the ring was flushed against his tan complexion. then sheathing his shaft perfectly, you connect it to the ring, and pin it in place, while securing it with the padlock, a satisfying click is heard.
“Is that good?” You ask genuinely, looking up at his flustered expression. “Mhmm…” he replies softly. “Great.” You said back, giving his thighs a firm smack before standing up. “Let’s get going then.”
He nods, blush still dusting his cheeks as he walks behind you, out the door and into the cold air of the dead night. The street lights lit up the road up ahead. With a smile, you take Kukuis hand and begin to guide him up the sandy path, directing him to the dimly lit road. “See? It’s not that hard is it?” You ask, teasingly as he averts his gaze and tries to hold his composure.
“L-let’s just get this going…I don’t wanna get—“
“Caught? Alright, alright. We can go.” You giggle a bit, amused by his reaction. You two begin to walk the pavement, moonlight was shining down upon you two, and it was over all comfortable weather.
As you two continue walking, pedestrians would pass by, causing your heart to beat in excitement, you would shield Kukui slightly in attempt to have any attention drawn towards yourself, and not him. Seemingly invisible, the group of people didn’t notice the naked man walking around nude. Nor did they notice you.
“Y-Y/N… you should hand me my coat….” Kukui asks nervously.
“Hmm…no not yet. It doesn’t seem like they noticed…does it?”
“No- but—“
“But nothing… let’s keep going, it’s at least another ten minutes before we get there, if we stand here contemplating we’ll definitely be deer in headlights, now won’t we professor?”
You inquired firmly. Waiting for his response.
“R-right…” Kukui could feel his cock twitch with excitement as you spoke to him with assertiveness. Already he was aching for release the more the stakes were amped, the more excited he got.
“Well then, let’s continue.” You say, as you two begin walking again, hand in hand. The wind breezed in your skin, and you looked over to your lover, smiling and proud that he’s accepted this challenge.
Soon enough, the two of you make it to MeleMele Meadow, entering it, there were two men minding their business, backs turned to you, as you led Kukui to the small cave ahead, that would eventually lead you to Kala’e Bay.You told Kukui to crawl through the passage. For some reason though, he hesitated. Almost refusing to get on his hands and knees in order to fit through.
“Just go—or your gonna get us cau—“
You were cut off from your urging when one of the men from earlier began approaching. Your heart drops as you come to immediately regret even fathoming such an idea as this one. You push Kukui down into the flowers, covering the majority of his self, as you take a step over him, shielding him slightly as the gentlemen approached you, casually asking…
“We’re new here, just wondering if you perhaps knew the way to Hea Hea city?” He inquired, seemingly unaware of kukuis presence.
You quickly regain your composure, noticing that Kukui hadn’t been seen.
“O-oh, Hea Hea city? That’s gonna be an island over—Akala island to be exact…”
You stumble over your words slightly, as you feel the adrenaline pumping through your veins from the possibility of being caught.
The men walk away, with each other , seemingly satisfied with the answer you gave them, before exiting the meadows. As they leave, you turn around looking down at Kukui, who was lying on his stomach in the flowers.
“What. The. Hell…? You almost got us caught—“
You push him through the enternece, not even bothering to scold him any further while doing so. And soon crawl in behind, following him into the cave.
“Just what was that Kukui? You make it seem like you want to get caught…” you say with a smirk, while grabbing his wrist, helping him up from the ground. “What were the rules?” You ask him firmly.
“If I made a scene…”
“If you made a scene you’d stay caged. Isn’t that right?” You finish for him. “Now I have to go ahead and keep your poor cock right where it’s at…hmmm…?” You ask him teasingly, walking him into the cave wall, his back pressed against it as you did so.
“Turn around.”
“W-what…?”
“Don’t make me ask twice Kukui.”
He nodded, biting his lip slightly as he turned his back to you. You grab his shoulders and bend him over, his ass pressing against your already hard cock through your pants.
“You feel that don’t you, professor?”
“Y-y/n….” He stammered, as you pressed his face against the mineral covered wall.
“You already know what’s going to happen, sugar. Gotta teach you a lesson” You groan as you release your cock from the confinements of its fabric. Springing out, you smack it onto his exposed ass. Teasing his entrance with the head of your cock for a moment, before licking your fingertips and bringing them down to his hole. Circling it, gently making sure he was properly lubed up before you pressed your middle and ring fingers into him. Relishing in the feeling of him wrapping around them as you did so. A moan escaped his lips and you quickly smacked his ass in response.
“Hey now, you be quiet,take my cock like a good boy, and I’ll be sure to reward you if you come through~ you got that?”
“Mhmm…”
Kukui would softly hum, understanding the situation at hand.
With that, you grabbed the tip of your cock and pressed it against his now slick entrance, pushing slowly into him, feeling every inch of him wrapping around you as you begin to pick up pace
“F-fuck… you’re doing so good Kukui….” You grunt as you slam your hips into his.
“And don’t you even think about cumming, or the cage stays on for the rest of the week, you got that professor?” You speak firmly as you share another smack to his ass.
“Can you at least unlock—” Kukui would attempt to beg for release but was quickly met with
Another harsh smack to his ass, as you relentlessly fuck him into oblivion. “Don’t make me regret being so nice to you, love.”
“Do I make myself clear?”
You inquired just as harshly, as your hand was smacking his ass.
“oh- f-fuck…” “Y-yes Y/N….”
Kukui would whimper in response.
“Good boy.” You simply state as you continue your ruthless efforts in your coital work.
“You’re so tight, as always Kukui.”
You would pull him closer to your body, now pressing his chest up against the earths wall, pinning his wrists to each side of his head as you kept pace perfectly.
“I- I feel close, y/n….”
“You better control it, Kukui. You spat out, as you smacked his ass once again. “Or you can kiss your cocks freedom goodbye.”
You begin reaching your peak after saying this to him, clapping skin against his. “You take it so well, professor. Such an amazing cock sleeve for me, mmmmhh~”
Sloppily fucking into him, you would occasionally elicit a moan from your lover. Digging your nails into his wrists feeling a wave of arousal wash all over your form, from the sounds Kukui was making, you began to etch closer to your climax.
With one final thrust you pulled out quickly, stringing your sticky, warm seed all over the professors back. A moan leaving your lips as you finish yourself off.
“Mmhh, come here….” You say, turning him around, kissing him passionately against the wall.
“You did so good, and look… you managed not to cum. Just like I told you, hm?… What a good boy~”
You praise him, before using the sleeve of the lab coat you had on to clean up what you could off of him.
“Now… let’s get going, we’re almost there.”
You remind as you put your self away, buttoning up your pants. You take his hand and begin leading him through the cave, down to the exit l, that eventually would lead you to Kala’e Bay.
The moment you two finally reached your date spot, you smile, looking at the ocean, which was calm. And it seemed like nobody was here to bother you. A sense of pride washes over you. The way you managed to get the professor out of his comfort zone, especially like this…it was exciting and new. And the feeling you felt right now, definitely couldn’t be replicated. Not in a million years.
“Now… look at this view…”
You announce, a smug smile forming on your lips, Looking Kukui up and down.
“Y/N…”
“Oh stop, I’m just teasing, plus the hardest part is over now isn’t it? You did wonderfully with holding yourself together back there…”
You trail your hand down his bare chest, to his caged cock, which was throbbing within its confinements, begging for release.
“Y/N…please~”
Kukui whimpers, unable to take any more of your ruthless teasing.
“Please what…? Hm?”
You inquired, knowing you were edging him beyond his usual limits.
“P-please…I need you~ i- I want—
“You want me to free your poor, entrapped cock?” You cut off his sentence, smiling at his pathetic little expression.
“Well… I guess since you did such a good job in the cave back there… I can reward you for being such a good, obedient little fuck toy for me.”
You grin, as you press him against the outskirts of the rocks that formed the cave, his back once again feeling the familiarity of the earth pressing against him. A shiver went down Kukuis back as his eyes never left your lowering form. You smoothly sit on your knees, admiring his pulsating cock through the metal bars that entrapped him.
“My, my… look at this…”
You suggest, as you gently place your hands onto his entrapped shaft, tapping your nails on the metal, making small tink sounds in the process. Kissing the tip of the cold, steele of the cage, you look up at him, noticing his flustered face, and lust filled eyes, you decide to give the man what he deserves.
But before you do that, you smile wickedly as you bring your lips to the tip of the chastity, licking and teasing his head through the bars.
“Oh-Y/N~” Kukui would moan as you gently flicked your tongue, teasingly against his cock tip. Licking up and down his forced in place length, causing jolts of excitement to course through his entire body, he tilts his head back in pleasure.
Cupping his balls, as you swirled your tongue, another moan would escape your lovers mouth.
With a smirk, you lick down to his testes, feeling his heartbeat through them as you did so. Not missing a beat with them as you continue your journey with your mouth.
A shaky breath would leave Kukuis lips as he gently placed a hand on your head.
“Y/N…please~…”
Kukui almost cried out, begging you to already release him from this torment.
“Okay, okay…patience professor, patience.”
Slowly, reaching into your pocket, you pull out the tiny key, that’s made for exactly one purpose.
Bringing it up to his confined member, you gently stick the key into the padlock of the sheath, hearing a satisfying click as you unlock it, undoing the pins that held him in place. As you take his cock out of its cage, he immediately is hard, with no problem, pre cum dripping onto the sand below, pulsating with anticipation.
“Wow…tell me you want this without telling me you want this, am I right?”
You chuckle a bit, half joking as you admire his length, before looking back up at his face, which was contorted in edged pleasure. You finally give in, taking his pleading expression to heart. You lower your head, closing in as you finally begin. You take your hand and pump his shaft a couple times before bringing your lips close to his pulsating member.
it's mostly just the sensation of your breath. But you smile, able to sense his cock twitching. Once you reach the head, you slide your soft lips over it, just the tip ,gently sucking it further, swirling your tongue around it. Enjoying the sweet and salty taste of his pre cum.
While doing this, you can hear his breath catch in his throat as you continue.
“Oh~ Y/N…” he moans out in pleasure as you begin to bob your head up and down onto his cock. Taking in every inch of his length, letting him hit the back of your throat as you push further and further, lips touching the cold, metal ring that was still around his balls.
Kukui grabs the back of your head and pushes you more into his cock, savoring the feeling that he’d been thinking about since this whole ordeal began. Slurping sounds begin to be heard as you keep your pace up, along with the occasional ‘pop’ sound from releasing him completely to give him playful eye contact, before going back at it.
You would occasionally croak as he hit the back of your throat, causing vibrations to run through the professors body, involuntarily bucking his hips and he pushed your head more aggressively onto his length.
“Oh- fuck, Y/N… I- I’m close…”
Without further notice, you keep your pace the same as you etch to milk his orgasm, looking up into his eyes as you put in your efforts
His body trembles slightly as his grip on your head tightens, forcing you to bob quicker. “Y/N…I-im gonna—“
Before he could even finish his sentence, webs of semen went shooting into your mouth and down your throat, you take a moment,swallowing his load into your mouth, savoring the taste, and being sure to clean every last drop that maybe escaped your mouth.
“Mmmm.” You hum to him, in content. Wiping the corner of your mouth with your thumb, licking any traces of his ejaculation up.
Kukui was a shuddering mess, panting from the moment as he was still riding off the high from his release.
Standing up, kissing his lips, making sure he would be able to taste himself off your your tongue, you smile against the kiss, tucking a strand of Kukuis hair behind his ear.
“You did so good~” You say, before pecking his cheek.
“T-thank you Y/N…” he says, shivering a bit as the late night breeze picks up.
“Of course, professor~”
You replied with a smile, kneeling back down, taking his cock into your hand, and slipping it back into the sheath of the chastity cage, locking it back in place, you put the key back into your pocket and take off the lab coat, handing it to Kukui.
“Now, let’s get you back home sweetheart.”

[id: A three-panel sequence from the Pokemon manga featuring a conversation between Wicke, Faba, Moon, Professor Kukui, and Professor Burnet. Faba and Wicke are in the first two upper panels. Moon and the professors are in the last panel.
Wicke: It was most likely hurt by Team Skull, because, well...
Wicke: This year there have been 45 cases of them abusing pokemon...
Faba: Assistant branch chief Wicke, you mustn't jump to conclusions. There have been more cases than usual, though.
Moon: Is that true?
Faba: Yes. Twenty-nine cases of assault... eleven destructions of habitat... and 5 cases of being sold as food. But there may be more considering how some cases are ignored or left unreported. /end id]
Ok so say we take the listed crimes of manga Team Skull with a grain of salt since, the pokemon manga really likes to make things more violent to a degree that feels cartoonish to me. And we cross out the shit that we know they do b/c the Aether Foundation/Lusamine pays them to do in searching for 'what does anime Team Skull do to pay the bills'.
So we have to cross out habitat destruction and pokemon abuse b/c we know that the Aether Foundation pays Team Skull to fuck shit up and harm pokemon in a way that means that the Aether Foundation can confiscate and rehabilitate those pokemon.
Only crossing out the assault b/c the assault isn't tied to robbery. It's fairly reasonable to assume that Team Skull does some assaults. That they're ready and willing to start shit with people that piss them off for one reason or another. And I think it is especially reasonable to belive that Guzma beats the fuck out of people that piss him off outside of pokemon battles. He's a violent dude with a violent temper and we know he's willing to lay his actual hands on someone and especially hates when people give his crew a hard time.
(I don't think it'd be shit to the extent of what he does in the manga, like the manga version of Guzma doesn't seem to care about his grunts and is willing to be violent towards them when the other versions of the character don't come across that way. And also I'm not willing to belive a ref in any other iteration of the franchise outside of the manga would let him whole ass break his opponent's arm/having his pokemon attack the other trainer and let that slide over ending the fight and declaring him the loser)
Now the selling pokemon as food, and I have to assume its poaching and selling protected pokemon as food or illegally harvesting things from places that's its illegal to or selling a person's stolen pokemon as food, rather than just selling pokemon as food in general. B/c people do eat pokemon, there would be people raising, harvesting, or selling pokemon as food.
And poaching would be something they could profit off of and we do see the grunts illegally harvest pokemon in the anime. Not to any success but we do see it.
Another money-making thing we see Team Skull do in the manga that isn't related to the Aether Foundation is run food carts/sell food. (Which is neat b/c manga!Guzma seems to be able to cook and care about making good/quality food)
So of the things just on hand for potential possible ways anime Team Skull are financially supporting themselves we have: battling (off-screen from Plumeria and Guzma), running food carts/selling food, poaching, and illegally selling pokemon as food.

How would you rank the Pokemon champions and villain bosses?
1) N: The most written character in all of Pokémon.
2) Guzma: Nothing in Pokémon made me feel things as much as first visiting Po Town did. That plus his background tidbits form a very sympathetic loser I care for a lot.
3) Lusamine: The tragedy of her family is delightful on all of its members, but Lusamine is certainly the weakest link to it due to being more of a perpetrator than a victim. I also love both of her designs, with her Nihilego form being easily the second-best-looking Pokémon woman, behind on Valerie.
4) Maxie and Archie: Accidental comedy duo. Their goals are stupid in the most endearing and memeable ways, and their reactions to the consequences of their actions somehow still manage to be a resonating moment. Ranking them separately is silly, but if I had to, Maxie is the best for his general pretentiousness, inside jokes, and being the Jouji voice in Master Sex.
5) Blue: The rival becoming the Champion for 5 minutes is a perfect endpoint of a rival arc and every one of Blue's successors, even the ones that are better characters than him, suffer from not being the one who pulled this off. Raticate-based content is also often good.
6) Alder: A cool design can carry you a long way. Seriously, he nails the wandering monk aesthetic so neatly. Volcarona, Reuniclus, and Chandelure are also sublime picks. And I love how his contributions to the plot are meaningful advice rather than the more distant and professional company that Wallace and Cynthia offer.
7) Rose: Funny anxiety man, arguably cuter and more memeable than the Hoenn villains, only lower than them because of how messily the Galar finale is delivered. Immense bonus points for his part as an accessory to Bede's character.
8) Wallace: Like with Alder, a cool design can carry you a long way. Milotic as an ace is also an immense plus. I suppose Emerald also makes him useful, but if that was a major factor, Cynthia would have been a lot higher.
10) Lance: Having the second-to-last boss become a sequel final boss always has a big feeling of downgrade, but that's offset well enough by making him cool in the Red Gyarados arc and his relationship with Clair.
11) Cynthia: Infodump character for Sinnoh mythology, which is not nearly as interesting as it should have been. Gets some points for the generally great choices of Pokémon and for actually feeling powerful in gameplay.
12) Kukui: Funny professor with a lot of presence but none very memorable. Being the Champion fight, and a surprisingly challenging one, is a big shock, but nothing really amazing on further thought.
13) Archer: Pathetic underling, therefore immediately more interesting than his nothingburger boss.
14) Leon: Dude that game insistently tries to sell as cool but never actually gets to be cool. Only above Steven because he's the one who gets to make the poignant commentaries on Sword/Shield's themes and because he's genuinely good as an accessory to Hop's arc.
15) Steven: Generic champion that never gets to be interesting, but gets points for only having cool Pokémon in his team.
16) Cyrus: Gets points for being memeable but not enough to compensate for how unfun his actual character is. Being soulless by design doesn't make it meaningful when the Sinnoh games are not saying anything about emotion.
17) Ghetsis: Plot device to make N innocent. Only above Giovanni because I like some Pokémon in his team.
18) Giovanni: Just a yakuza boss without any fun projects. The Gym Leader twist was a wow thing on the first run but never amounts to anything, like with Kukui being the Champion fight. Did he ever interact with Silver? Not in anything I played, I think.
19) Diantha: Has the bare minimum story presence and doesn't even use it well.
20) Lysandre: Has one of the stupidest villain plans, made even more ridiculous by the version differences between X and Y, but his aesthetic and delivery are so bad that it manages to make it not funny.

Do you have any age headcanons for some pokemon characters like for example the train men, N, Lysandre, ect?
Well, there's a few with canon ages.
N is confirmed to be like 20-22 and Cyrus is a beautiful baby boy at 27.
Lysandre is probably in his early 40s (maybe 42?) alongside Sycamore since they're clearly around the same age.
Ingo and Emmet are in their early 30s to me nowadays (despite my previous thoughts, I've stated), and Warden Ingo is maybe... I go between a few ages. The joke answer is he's just 37 and going through it hard, but it's probably mid 40s+ (and that, too, applies to Silver Fox Emmet, of course.)
Nanu is... something I don't want to give actual thought. Late forties to early fifties, maybe? 48-52 is the range I'd give.
Grimsley varies, too? He's clearly maybe mid to late 20s in BW... but, uh, idk about in Alola? Something either happened to him, or he had a rough time in like 2 years. Because... SM apparently is just two years after BW2. Help him.
Colress is hard in his 30s. Somewhere. Not sure. Just pick a random one in that range, and I'll probably agree. He just seems a more into his career and far out of whatever university had him. 33, I guess in BW2, so he gets to be 35 and insane in Alola.
Maxie and Archie also fluctuate for me. They are either in their late thirties or just turned 40. Actually, maybe Maxie is like 39 while Archie is 38 or something. I don't know. They just seem older but not too old? Especially their Gen 3 designs... I don't think there's that much age variance between ORAS and RSE them, though. Them again, with the Cyrus situation, they both might just be 25 lmao.
Guzma is over 20, and that much is certain. He and Kukui (and Molayne) are all around the same age, so I like to imagine he's like 23 doing all that sjajdns.
Volo is 27 to me because it would just be hilarious that being in Hisui/Sinnoh and being that age makes you want to climb that damn mountain. Though, I also do think he's in his mid-20s in general.
My controversial take is that I see Irida as 18 at the youngest. She's the head of her clan, and her close friendship with Palina makes me think they're close in age. And I see her age as close to Adaman's own, too, but maybe just a little younger to make her feel more of a need to prove herself to him. I think they would also prefer an adult to be head of the clan, too.
Elesa is maybe... 24-26? Hard to explain why. Just seems in that range.
Cynthia is probably around Cyrus's age, so 26-28. They seem maybe a little acquainted before all the stuff in DPPt, so I think they may have met a few times, maybe at a university or in school.
Larry is like 48-50. He's been confirmed to have worked for the Paldea league for 25 years, so it just seems likely he may joined up after he graduated.

Hello, hello!
This might be an odd question, and sorry it has been asked before, but are the watches only given to characters who are around the age of the Pokémon protagonists? Or can adults get them as well, assuming a legend likes them enough?
Also, does the morphing act like a contract? Sort of like Kyubey and the magical girls in PMMM? Likewise, are there any drawbacks to the watches?
I would say that the limit is somewhere in the forty to fifty range, I imagine Lusamine getting one, and She's about forty, I can see Sycamore getting one too and I don't know how old he is but I assume he's older than Kukui, so I guess maybe it doesn't really matter how old someone is, it's just a matter of if their body can handle the transformation.
For the PMMM style contracts, I guess the morphing would count as a contract if you want to see it that way. Just know that it doesn't cost you your soul.
And as for if there's drawbacks to using the morphers, I imagine that when you're in a Pokémorpher form, it can cause you to unconsciously say your pokemons name, examples being when your furious, shocked, or snoring In your sleep.
And while all abilities can be active in all forms, even while in human form, some abilities are less useful in human form compared to others, take No Guard, for example, it allows the user to make all their hits meet the opponent, the inverse is also true allowing the opponents hits to meet the user, this ability is significantly less useful in human form.
Now, aside from those examples, i haven't really thought about the drawbacks for the real watches.
But the fake ones made by this aus big evil team do have a big drawback. If you overuse it, then you will get some Symphogear style whiplash, and it can kill you if you continue to overuse it.
So what do you think of those answers? It's been a while since I answered a question from someone about my Au. Hopefully, these answers satisfy your curiosity.

pokemon anime fanfic rec list !!
hii!! i’ve compiled some of my favourite pokeani ao3 fanfics to create this rec list. i hope that this is helpful, enjoy!! ( •̀ ω •́ )✧
be careful, and always check tags/warnings before reading!!
this is loosely made in order of my favourite to my least, though all of these are spectacular. other than that, there isn't any particular order to this.
(moon phases are used to represent partial star ratings!!)
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ You Can Always Count On Me by driftveil (G) 7,281 words, 4/4 chapters [no ships] --- Ash has a soft spot for the bruised and the broken. When he says "I choose you," he means it for life. (Brock doesn't understand it at all — until, one day, he does.)
i'm a HUGE sucker for fics focused on ash's relationship with his pokemon. i am also a sucker for fics that kind of focus on brock and ash's brotherly-dynamic. i absolutely adore this fic, dear gosh, it's just a combination of all my favourite pokeani fic aspects in one!! basically, this is a character study fic from brock's perspective as he watches ash taking care of his abused/traumatized fire pokemon.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Promises by CGJ (NR) 3,940 words [no ships] --- Ash leaves on a journey, and each time he comes back different. Brock watches, and waits.
this fic is absolutely beautiful!! this fic is very warm and fuzzy, but also quite angsty and sad, sort of hurt/comfort i guess?? but not exactly. features brock pov, along with brock and ash's brotherly dynamic again!! brock's guilt(?) over not being able to protect ash is written spectacularly. i hold this fic to the highest regard, definitely give this one a chance!!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amor Pietasque by driftveil (T) 2,716 words [no ships] --- Froakie’s looking for more than just a trainer. It’s a shame, then, that Kalosian children make such terrible partners.
this potrayal of froakie is absoluely spectacular, and it is exactly how i imagine it. the backstory for froakie in this makes so much sense, and is written beautifully. froakie's feelings are written so amazingly, i swear. the moment froakie met ash?! absolutely perfect. this fic is flawless, please read it.
⭐⭐⭐⭐🌗 A Professor and a Student by LeDiz (G) 136,026 words, 23/23 chapters [no ships] --- Ash seemed determined to stay in Alola, and Kukui had a loft going to waste. He'd boarded students before; he didn't expect anything special out of the experience. As it turns out, Ash isn't the only one who's going to be learning a lot this year. Snippets and fragments of life during Ash's stay in Alola.
i'm almost positive absolutely everyone in the pokeani fandom has read this one already, but just in case you haven't, please read this. it's a spectacular potrayal of ash from kukui's perspective, and it's written amazingly. a good amount of just general fragments, and plot. it's always so interesting to see how people/character's view ash, especially when the character is unaware of ash's previous journeys.
and thus the earth by imaginaryinspiration (T) 1,997 words [no ships] --- Olivia leaned over the table, an unreadable smile on her face, and her eyes flicked to Ash. And the words she said next— well, they put him on very high alert. “I heard that it’s not just a story. During that time, there were sightings of all four legendaries,” she said. “They were fighting all throughout the storm!” In other words, Olivia picks up on some things Ash wished she didn't on their visit to Akala. Everyone else is just confused.
this fic is based off of a moment in the fic mentioned above this (A Professor and a Student by LeDiz), but it's absolutely amazing. it's a further look into what might've happened if my favourite scene in that fic had gone on a bit longer.
⭐⭐⭐⭐🌘 The 48: Pokemon by LeDiz (T) 359,963 words, 15/? works [a bit of prof.burnet/prof.kukui]
this is a really great series with a whole bunch of great character studies and oneshots. mainly just a bunch of one chapter fics, with a few multichapters. great potrayals of all the characters, and it expertly explores some of the best and most interesting apsects of the pokeani. my personal favs are The Wallet, As long as no one asks, Left Behind, and Nice job, but all of them are absolutely spectacular!!!
⭐⭐⭐⭐ in the light of the moon by imaginaryinspiration (T) 995 words [no ships] --- Pikachu wants to form a truce, just for one night. Meowth decides it's worth it, once he hears the reason. or: an electric rat and criminal cat put aside their differences to teach a death-defying ten-year-old how to say f ck.
(the f ck in't censored in the fic, nor in the actually summary, i was the one who did that for this post.) amazing. beautiful. exquisite. perfect in every way. exactly what i needed in life. okay, okay, jokes aside, this is very much a crack fic. this is incredibly funny, and exactly what you need after reading a whole bunch of angst, assuming you read all the recs above.
⭐⭐⭐⭐ together is better than apart by imaginaryinspiration (T) 8,670 words, 4 works [a little satosere] --- Ash loves saving the world, he really does, but sometimes it's too much. Sometimes, afterwards, he needs a little more support than he's used to.
a super nice and sweet series. focuses on ash's relationship with each of his kalos companions, and it's honestly just very nice. it does have satosere in the second work, but it can definitely be skipped if you're not a fan of that.
⭐⭐⭐⭐ Caught, catching by grainjew (G) 1,470 words [no ships] --- Coda to Best Wishes episode 7, “Snivy Plays Hard to Catch!” Soon after her capture, Ash and Snivy sit down for a sunrise conversation about trainers and the having thereof.
such a spectacular potrayal of snivy, and i adore her and ash's bond throughout this fic. snivy's skepticism is written wonderfully. this is just a really cool fic!!
⭐⭐⭐🌖 put your arms around me by kopycat_101 (G) 1,255 words [no ships] --- Ash ponders about his journeys, the friendships he made during said journeys, and the unique way that everyone has hugged him.(Essentially, a fluffy fic full of headcanons plus Ash love and appreciation.)
gahhhhh!! this is so sweet and nostalgic; this fic is simply full of fluff, and i love it. the kinds of hugs each character gives fits them so well, and honestly, ash deserves all the hugs in the world. the only reason this isn't 4 stars is 'cause the way they write 'prof.' instead of 'professor,' annoys me a bit, which is just me being a little prick.
⭐⭐⭐🌖 Aspects of Ash by caspiiann (T) 5,201 words, 6/? chapters [no ships] --- A collection of episodic styled oneshots, depicting different AUs of Ash <3 Chapters do not follow one coordinated plot
just a bunch of really great oneshots, that as the title suggests, are about the "aspects of ash." it's got both crack-y oneshots, and more serious ones. some of the chapters are really great deepdives into ash's character, and those chapters are written spectacularly.
⭐⭐⭐🌗 What it's worth by CGJ (NR) 1,776 words [satogou] --- And he wonders, is this how he made everyone else feel? Is this how mama felt everyday, as he went on a journey and left her waiting? How his pokemon felt, unable to do anything but stay at a lab waiting for him to come back? Goh is leaving on his new journey, and Ash realizes a few things.
ash realizing how everyone else felt when he himself left them behind for a new journey is written spectacularly. how different goh is to all of ash's other friends is potrayed quite nicely, and this is just generally a nicely written fic!!!
⭐⭐⭐🌗 Sparkly Things by grainjew (G) 1,458 words [no ships in tags, but the fic has a bit of satosere] --- Coda to XY episode 64, "Battling with Elegance and a Big Smile!" After nightfall, Ash and Serena discuss Serena's double battle with the mysterious pokemon performer who was definitely not Kalos Queen Aria. Also, Contests.
i adore the kalos gang so much. this fic is very nice, and i love ash mentioning contests,,, it isn't often that he talks about his past adventures/things he's directly learnt from them, so seeing fics about it is always a treat. also, i loved the end note so much!! i, too, am a firm believer that serena and clemont would rant to each other about how much they liked ash.
⭐⭐⭐🌘 Static (Ability) by grainjew (G) 3,357 [no ships] --- Five times Ash Ketchum is ten years old.
ash can't age. that's it. that's the fic. anways, it's good!! ash doesn't believe in aging, nor does he physically age, so it's sorta funny.
i hope that you find these fics are just as amazing as i think they are. feel free to give some of your own recs!! maybe i'll continue this post in the future??
anyways, hope this was helpful!! o(* ̄︶ ̄*)o
(this post was edited on 1/7/2023 in order to remove (accidental) negative comments i made about the pokeani writing community as a whole. it was not my intention to hurt anyone, and i sincerely apologise to anyone who was hurt by my ignorant and careless comments.)

NEW COLOR PALLET TRIO INFODUMP AAUGH‼️‼️(art by nero mwamwa)
OKAY im genuinely gonna take huge insp off the movie because it just matches so well and it bridges missing concepts i needed for their lore AUGH OKAY so
• i'm reclaiming the idea that red gave jaide a torchic and named it chuy (it was named kaia but its CHUY NOW!!!) while i unfortunately cannot answer how did red acquire a torchic it's totally meant for her (maybe through trading with a hoenn local that happened to be in kanto at the time)
• before jaide left for johto, red and blue invited her to the safari zone in fuchsia city because they miss her and they want her to experience what it's like to catch pkmn (despite the pikachu incident that occured before) this allowed jaide to discover her talent - she's really good at catching pkmn, even better than both boys combined.
• so when she was prepared to leave kanto, she would at least have this newfound passion to try to capture, and her target is the johtonian pkmn. she's thankful they helped her find something special about herself. her parting words was hoping that she'd meet them and they'd become fully fledged trainers they aim to be
• skipping past the gen 3 to gen 6 events, we land on the gen 7 timeline, they're all adults now. blue is viridian city's gym leader,
jaide is professor oak and elm's designated professional catcher,
and red is the mysterious living legend and champion who later opened up to the public again thanks to blue.
• meanwhile - thanks to kukui, alola has been creating their own championship league which meant that it's still new. i like to think that the battle tree was also created at the same time and he needed "bosses" to facilitate the battle tree.
• kukui invites red and blue to become the battle tree bosses, to which red and blue agrees with. it's gonna have some sort of grand opening and this brings attention to people from the other regions to want to visit alola. i like to think bringing blue and red was a celebrity bait in some way, especially for red who's popular despite not showing his face around.
• at that same time, professor oak has a new job for jaide which was to capture all alolan regional forms of certain pkmn - she was given the funds to help her go travel to alola. blue would know about this and he tells her to come visit the battle tree because he and red will be there as well. (AHEM AHEM LIKE HOW MANOLO IS GONNA HAVE HIS FIRST BULLFIGHT AND IT COINCIDES WITH THE DAY MARIA RETURNS FROM SPAIN AND AND AND--
• ahem anyways, blue is very excited about this! because red and jaide havent exactly met up with each other properly (they were only able to say hi to each other through blue's contacts since blue and jaide consistently talking to each other throughout the years) (just imagine a funny zoom call where red and blue are in the same room and jaide is on the other side)
• red's ... quite nervous and excited about this! he's still getting used to the public attention and usually loses his mojo when he's being watched, and it's double the pressure when she's around. he can only pray he'll do fine at the battle tree if she's gonna watch him.
• a fun cameo happens with elio/selene where they solo red in the battle tree and blue watches them - jaide eventually appears as well to watch and they're both cheering for red 🫶
• red almost lost that round because jaide showed up and he kept taking chances to look at her
• after the grand opening, they were officially reunited and it felt so good to meet each other again. well, blue with jaide and red felt like nothing since he was simultaneously in contact with them. he's like the messenger between the apples 😔😔
• i like to think red really has never fallen off of liking jaide since he was a kid but it only got stronger when they meet again and it's like an old book had been dusted clean and ready to be opened
• and appleshipping pre romance begins shortly after wehehehhe
