Nobility AU: Noble's Summit

[Inspired by @monsoon-of-art's Pokerus AU and @jade-nargacuga's Pokerus: Ghosts]

To say the mood was tense on the way to the Temple of Sinnoh was an understatement. If it wasn’t for his new School, Iscan was sure he’d be freaking out so badly that he’d need help getting there.

All the Nobles - new and old - were meeting. Officially, it was to discuss what to do about the rift and Clans, as well as go over duties and all. Unofficially, it was to get everyone used to working with each other, since the Nobles were - somewhat surprisingly - a tighter-knit group than the Wardens.

Knowing what he knew now, it made sense. Both clans had assigned the title of Sinnoh to the wrong Pokémon, and the Nobles had known the whole time. So there wasn’t any sort of clan-based division, and they actually met up regularly. Honestly, though, this all wasn’t that worrying.

What he was actually worried about was how everyone would react to finding out that he and Palina were…together. He was sure some of the old Nobles had let it slip, and even if they hadn’t he was willing to bet that it’d come up.

Even if everyone knew about Arceus now, old animosity would still be there. Especially Melli…

Oh, ball-Melli was going to be utterly insufferable.

—-

Palina thanked her lucky stars when they got to the Highlands meeting point. Lord Electrode was off to the side, recovering from an Explosion, whilst being tended to by Sir Voltorb. “Well…that explains why we had to come up here. What happened?”

“Ah… who’s to say? This is the third time he’s exploded today…” A groan from the smaller Sphere Pokémon. “It’s like the smallest thing makes him go off.”

“Erm. Is he…safe to have here?”

“Yeah, new Poppa’s right! If Melli keeps going boom-boom…” Both lovers sputtered at the pup’s frank statement. They weren’t like that yet! (Right?)

“Wait, new poppa? Ohhhh, I gotta see this.” Looking up, Palina saw the new Lady Braviary swoop in, Sir Rufflet trailing behind. “Hah! I knew you two would get together! I guess the real question is, will the young pup have siblings only on land, or in the water as well? Hmmmm~”

…right, a dog and a fish might not be…compatible… well. Something to work around when they got there.

Iscan was still stammering and stuttering up at his fellow Diamond Clan noble, even as she snickered.

“...together?”

Each pair of eyes was drawn to the giant wooden orb.

“They…they’re together? A Diamond with a Pearl?” Out of the corner of her eye, Palina saw Sir Voltorb roll away. She gave IScan a gentle bite on a fin and pulled him away, her son and Sir Basculin following suit.

*BOOM!*

…really, it was the obvious choice.

—-

The one good thing about Melli’s…explosive tendencies… is that it was a good way to let everyone know just where the meeting was.

Miss Petilil was more than willing to give the new Noble some Aromatherapy, thank Sinnoh. Especially as it seemed to help everyone just calm down some. Otherwise, they might all end up at loggerheads over one thing or another.

Lady Sneasaler - the only remaining “natural” Noble - adjusted her ever-present black hat. “Alright, I’ll do the opening since I’m the only one of us who knows how. So yadda yadda yadda, I declare this Meeting of the Hisuian Nobles open.”

“Lady Sneasaler! You are not giving this the right gravitas!” Sir Basculin fumed from his spot in a nearby water bowl.

The Fighting-/Poison-type just shrugged. “Meh. It’s what works. Got any complaints, whitefin?” A growl. “Thought so. Now.” A sigh as she leaned back. “First things first. I assume everyone has been informed that the whole "Sinnoh dispute" your clans had was completely pointless?”

A series of “Aye’s” came up from the former Lords, with one exception. “I have told Lord Melli, but he…hasn’t exactly let me fully explain.”

“Oh-kay. Go ahead and give the talk while we get started. Don’t wanna push the little sprout too far with Aromatherapy.” Miss Petilil gaped at the taller ‘mon, then sighed.

Lian leaned to Sir Scyther. “...has she…always been like this?”

The Sir let out a sigh. “Since before her Trial, apparently.”

“I have ears, you know.” The bug-type Noble and his predecessor stared at the Sneasaler before she sighed. “Right, next up would normally be discussing Wardens, but given circumstances we can pass to Current events.” A deep breath. “And… this is the doozy. Not talking about the mass transfer of power, but everything that’s been going on.”

Her eyes swept across the assembled ‘mon. “Anything of note at the villages and all? You lot have had more experience there than us, so…”

Mai sighed. “Unfortunately, it seemed like us… ex-wardens… were the furthest along with our changes. The Clan Leaders were the closest to our levels, though.”

“I…right. Ok.

…Bird. You can stop jumping.”

Indeed, Sabi was just hopping in place, causing some rumbling on the ground. “Bird. Please. Staph.”

“But I have something to saaaay!”

“Is it from your ‘clairvoyance’?” The Lady made air quotes, not noticing her fellow Noble shoot a glare. And an evil smirk.

R.I.P. Lady of the Cliffs.

“Oh, the same thing that let me know you’ve been trying to learn human speech recently?”

“Yeah, that th-wait, what the?!?” Weasel-cat whirled on avian, gawking. “You - I - I haven’t been trying to learn human! Where’d you get that idea from?

C-Cut it out, you guys!” Nope. Despite her pleas the assembled Sirs, Misses, Lords, and Ladies would not stop laughing at the Sneasler.

Eventually, Sir Rufflet managed to talk instead of laugh. “A-apologies, but… I can confirm her talents for myself. We’ve saved several clansmen with her visions, and I’d be a fool to discount them.” Sigh and smirk, shaking his head. “Although that was one she had not shared with me.”

Sabit just petered off into a snigger. “But the real question is, did I see your reaction, or did I see you actually practicing?” Sneasler just glowered at Braviary, causing the newer Lady to sigh. “Right, right. Anyways, I saw what was going to happen.”

“Y-you mean whatever had Sir Basculin scared enough to pass on his title?”

“The exact thing, Iscan.” Her head drooped some, eyes closing. “It…wasn’t pretty. In the vision, I…I wasn’t myself. None of the Clansmen were.”

“I assume you don’t mean physically.” Good on Gaeric for clarifying.

“No, I mean…” A small choked squawk came out, tears coming to her eyes. “I…Sir Rufflet? Can you?” And she had to let the experienced one take over? Oh-kay…

“Of course, m’Lady.” The smaller bird stepped forwards. “Lady Sabi had allowed me to view hr vision via my psychic powers, and her reaction is… sadly, justifiable. We thought she'd be able to tell you anyways.

Nevertheless. Her vision revealed that everyone in Hisui, except for the Nobles and a few lucky Pokemon, had been reduced to mere beasts that were hunting…something.”

The hollow itself seemed to still at this revelation. Background chatter from those in the meeting and those who were just peeping in died off. “She didn’t see the end result, but we are lucky it didn’t traumatize her.”

“...that bad?” Sir Basculin whispered. Sir Growlithe burrowed his head in his mother’s mane, while Sir Scyther just gawked. Sir Stantler laid down, forelegs over his eyes as he shook in fear. Tensions climbed as Miss Petilil’s Aromatherapy ceased in shock, Sir Ursaring sitting and murmuring about how this couldn’t be possible. Sir Bergmite had fallen on his back, not even bothering to move as Sir Voltorb stared, eyes occasionally darting to a thankfully-still-alert Melli.

“That bad.” Sir Rufflet nodded. “Truth be told, it seems like nothing would be set right without the Hero returning.”

Silence reigned for a few precious minutes.

—-

Lady Sneasler was in shock. This whole “Pokérus” thing was leading up to people being at each other’s throats? Hunting and killing? Nary a sign of intelligence?

…Sinnoh, what were you thinking, letting all this happen?

And more pressingly. “These… lucky Pokémon. Did you happen to see anything about them?”

The young Sir shook his head in denial. Crap, so the former Lords might be vulnerable now! Oh this wasn’t good this wasn’t goo-

“There…was one thing.” Eh? Miss catatonic had snapped out of it? “T-thinking back on the vision, I… I realized. It seemed like everyone who wasn’t… insane… had some sort of Legendary blessing.” Her gaze drifted to the young Sir Growlithe. “L-like you.”

The pup pulled his head out of Palina’s fluff. “E-eh?”

The Braivary - who suddenly seemed a good bit older - nodded. “Yeah, you… you were safe in my visions. Weren’t even a target.” A dry laugh. “Heck, if Palina was nearby and not… busy… she’d be caring for you.”

Time to step back in. “Oh-kay, that’s impressive. But the pup was blessed by Arceus then, and now he’s given that blessing to his mother. Don’t you think-”

“Erm, actually?” And Sir Basculin had piped back up. “My continued independence proves to me that Dialga and Palkia helped oversee Iscan’s Rite of the Waves. Would that be enough to protect us?”

“I’ll commune with them tonight, see what I can find out.”

“...erm. You sure you can do that, Miss?”

“Eep! Right. Sorry. I’m going to have to teach Arezu how to do the Dance of Connections…”

“The what?” Said Lilligant looked at her predecessor in sheer bafflement.

“I’ll explain it when we get back to the Arena.”

“Oh-kay. Erm. Anyone else have something to discuss?” Lady Sneasler got the meeting back on track, only to receive a series of “no” responses. “Right. Well, umm. Given the… magnitude… of what has been discovered, I’d like to call for an emergency adjournment so the ex-Nobles can start helping their new Nobles learn to fight. If we can’t get any answers from the guys upstairs, we’ll have to assume the worst. Sabi, Rufflet. Any signs we can look for?”

Sir Rufflet gladly answered: “We have until the skies turn red before anyone falls to insanity. Also, the hyper-aggression comes with glowing red eyes, so it’s easy to tell who’s affected.”

“Gotcha. Someone get that noted.

OK, all in favor of emergency adjournment, say ‘Aye!’”

A chorus of tiny “Aye’s” sounded out through the hollow.

Lady Sneasler sighed. “I…alright, kinda can’t take your word here, need the actual current Lords to say ‘Aye!’...”

“Oh, uh, Aye?” “Aye.” “Aye?” “Ayy.” “Aye-Aye!” “Aye…” “A-Aye…” “Erm, aye?” “I. Oh, um, Aye.”

“Alright. Oh, uh, first: I’ll be popping by after the Dance of Communion to see what Arezu’s heard.” The Grass-/Fighting-type gulped, clearly not having expected this kind of pressure. “Once I know about that, I’ll go around and see if we can get another meeting set up.

Now. Meeting adjourned, everyone get to practicing!”

Silence (except for Miss Petilil leading Lady Arezu away).

“TODAY, people! We don’t know when that red sky is coming!” That got ‘mon up and running, and soon only Melli, Sir Voltorb, and Lady Sneasler were left. And she wasn’t gonna stick around for the Electrode’s training - she preferred not being blown up, thank you very much.

And Legends, was this what it was like being the eldest Noble? She’d like the old Lord Basculegion back, please and thank you. Ugh. Well, if wishes were fishes and all that crap. She had to get ready to check on the Dance of Communion - probably get some notes - and make sure the kits were alright. Not to mention see if the sky was starting to turn red and all because that would be when pretty much all of Hisui would be hunting something. Quite possibly them.

“Arceus help us… we’re gonna need it.”

You know, originally, because I was introduced to the Nobles out of order, I actually at first assumed that the Nobles had one Lady for each Lord. It’s because I learned about Lady Sneasler and Lord Electrode first, and then Lady Liligant and Lord Ursaluna, so I just extrapolated that there must be a Lord for each Lady and vice versa.

I was actually pretty disappointed that Lady Sneasler and Liligant are the only girls. If it were up to me, the system would be that the Nobles are intrinsically linked, so that the heirs of each Noble are paired, and there would be a Lady for each Lord. Every new generation would be swapped genders, except for the current generation of the Isles, with the little Growlithe that Palina’s raising being a rare exception, confounded by his small stature as a runt.

Lord Wyrdeer would be the Lady of the Woods, Lord Basculegion would be Lady of the Isles, and Lord Braviary would be Lady of the Tundra.

It would balance things out and make everything equal, and I think it’s cool in a way, a Lord and Lady for each land in Hisui.

In the Giratina possession au, can Giratina control Lord Basculegion because it's a ghost type, or does the lord's nobility prevent that?

Lord Basculegion's status as a Noble does in fact protect them! Luckily for Akari!

“Now,” Arezu began whistfully, “Not to pit two exquisite Ladies against each other, but - if they had to fight, who do you think would win between Lady Lilligant and Lady Sneasler?”

“Sneasler,” Ingo replied instantly.

There was a hot second of stunned silence.

“No hesitation, huh,” Mai noted.

“I am basing myself purely on typing,” the man began explaining as he briefly stopped carving the second wooden spoon he would give as a traditional wedding gift to Palina and Iscan: “If both had been pure Fighting it would have been a perfectly fair fight, but Lilligant has the disadvantage of being part Grass, which Poison happens to be supereffective against.”

“That’s why your Tangela hates me,” Melli commented.

“She does not,” Ingo replied.

“Why does she suffocate me then?”

“I have told you already, her hugs are not an attempt at your life, she is simply made out of a mass of vines which can sometimes result in hazardous situations despite her best intentions.”

“Is there someone Lady Lilligant could take on?” Arezu distracted them.

Ingo turned to her without missing a beat: “Avalugg, Basculegion, and possibly Kleavor, though it would be a very tight match.”

“No she could not take on Lord Avalugg!” Gaeric blurted out.

“He is doubly weak to Fighting and his Rock type would not do him many favors against Grass,” the other man replied, shattering his hopes in one fell swoop.

“But he’s-!” the warden fumbled on his words for a moment, waving his arms vehemently to find a comprehensible enough way to explain himself before having to resort to just: “Big!”

“Fair argument!” Ingo admitted. “But typing wise, he’d be done for. It’s a very unfortunate pair, mostly on account of neither type covering the other’s weaknesses. He would similarly lose against Sneasler, Arcanine, Basculegion, Electrode, Kleavor, and... No, that should be it, I believe. Ursaluna would would put up a valuable effort, but wouldn't survive the Ice. My condolences, Miss Calaba.”

The woman didn’t even move from where she napped, just gave him an ok.

Melli laughed at the disheartened Gaeric.

Mai smacked him to get him to stop.

“He’d be good against Braviary,” Sabi predicted.

That got her a gentle pat on her head, away from the braids she was getting done: “Indeed,” Ingo nodded, “Flying is weak to both Ice and Rock. He’d also fare pretty badly against Kleavor - Bugs are awful for Psychic types.”

“But he’d be good against Sneasler?”

“Oh, he’d decimate her. Both of his types are supereffective against her. Wyrdeer too, she’d have no chance against him. For more information on how weak Poison is to Psychic please refer to Melli and his many defeats at the spoons of Alakazam.” and he ducked to evade a halfhearted slap. “Also Ursaluna! Ground is another powerful weakness of the vitriolic type. Congratulations, Miss Calaba.”

She gave him a thumbs up and continued not caring.

Palina hummed, struggling for a moment with Sabi’s green hair as she tried to untangle a knot: “How’d my young Lord do?” she asked with genuine curiousity: “He hasn’t been mentioned much, has he?”

“Fire type seldom has trouble in matchups, so he’d be fairly fortunate in a fight against most of his fellow Nobles...” the expert mumbled: “Lilligant, Kleavor, Avalugg as I’ve mentioned, Electrode - Ursaluna would asphalt him, though. Together with Basculegion they are his worst enemies. In a fight, of course, I’m well aware they’re on excellent terms.”

Iscan waved a little to reassure him: “The Lord isn’t a big fighter anyways, he probably wouldn’t do too well.”

“Oh, he’d be quite good actually! Plenty of the Nobles would be in trouble against his Water and Ghost combination, he’s rather fiersome! Electrode is the only one to be a total threat to him - those two are probably the ones to look out for the most. Terrific typings, the both of them.”

His sleeve was tugged to take him out of his musings: Lian twisted his mouth at him to properly figure out how to express his question, looking particularly pissed as he side-eyed what Ingo refused to look at but knew was probably a very smug Diamond warden with a burning desire to bury the guy alive, which would have severely worsened not just inter-clan relationships but also the fairly relaxed gathering they were having.

“So - this is all just, theories, right,” the kid began.

“Yes, based on types.”

Lian hummed deeply, pressing his mouth flat, and a fairly well-known feeling he could only denominate as Oh No took over Ingo as he dreaded the question.

“So you could tell who would win between Almighty Palkia and Dialga?”

Now that was something not to be touched with a 25 and a half foot pole, as evidenced by the other Pearl wardens shooting a glare at Lian and most of their Diamond counterparts paling notably.

Ingo, bless his heart, completely lost the religious implications somewhere in the cogs of his battle-analitycal machine churning in his brain.

“That would require an actual battle to be determined, actually!” he answered without missing a beat: “Both of them are Dragon types, meaning they have at the same time a massive advantage and disadvantage on one another, so effectively the chance at one prevailing over the other just based on that is rendered null, and since their secondary typings of Steel and Water are completely neutral to one another, a fight between the two of them would end up being rather balanced. It would also probably be an incredible spectacle with a very high chance of completely tearing reality as we know it apart according to professor Laventon’s studies, so it would be best for them and the rest of the world to remain on good terms and never have the chance to settle the score between them if they had any to settle.”

The young warden mumbled an agreement.

Not the way anybody expected a bomb like that to be defused.

But oh thank fuck it worked!

“What about the third one?” Iscan asked meekly. “The worm?”

Ingo buffered for a second: “Dragon-Ghost,” he recalled. “Same exact situation as the other two. No certain prevailing, and we should hope not to find out.”

“Ghost is good against Ghost, right?” Palina intervened.

The man nodded. A funny thought striked him: “With enough determination, it could be taken down by Basculegion. And by Avalugg as well.”

Gaeric cheered at his Lord’s good honor being restored.

How I write each Noble & the relationship with their Warden.

• Lord Wyrdeer: he likes to appear all Wise and Dignified, but is secretly very silly. He would like to appear as a grandfatherly figure for Mai, but she can see right through him.

• Lord Kleavor: Big softie with resting bitch face, I headcanon him as one of the youngest Nobles. He loves Lian, that’s his baby brother right there!

• Lord Ursaluna: Personally, I headcanon him as almost as old as Calaba. He has seen everything; nothing can face Lord Ursaluna anymore. He and Calaba are old buddies that have gone together though the best and worst of each other lives, they are as thick as thieves.

• Lady Lilligant: She seems like a very serious and respectable Noble, but she is actually very mischievous and generally does whatever she wants. Similar to Lord Kleavor, she really loves her warden, and sees Arezu as a little sister.

• Lord Basculegion: He is very patient and a bit shy, Lord Arcanine’s new dad. He is very close to Iscan, as they have similar personalities and understand each other better than anyone else.

• Lord Arcanine: The best of boys! He wants to be a good Noble but he is still struggling with his sudden evolution, and the responsibilities that came with it. Palina is his mom, and he really loves his mom!

• Lady Sneasler: A mean girl, she does her job responsibly, but she has no interest to act like a proper sacred Noble. She treats Ingo as one of her cubs, but tends swing between seen him as either, a baby cub, in need of her protection and care, or an older one, capable enough to do babysitting duty.

• Lord Electrode: As haughty and proud as his warden, the annoyed frown on his face may actually reflect his true mood. He loves Melli, he loves having someone around that is so similar to him!

• Lord Braviary: The unassuming type, Lord Braviary acts in mysterious ways. He is Sabi’s cool big bro, and he likes to spoil her a little.

• Lord Avalugg: The gentlest of giant pokemon, he is a very caring and protective Noble. He is also Gaeric’s "mom friend", trying his best to temper some of his wildest ideas.

Noble Pokemon Rites and Trials HC(UPDATED!)

So I decided go ahead and post my ideas for the Rites and Trials I think every Noble heir has to complete in order to evolve and take on the mantle of Noble after their predecessor dies(in most cases). The only one mentioned and seen in game is Growlithe’s, and if you’ve read chapter 3 of my Ghosts fic it mentions Basculegion’s. I just wanted to get my ideas on paper, both for me and @kettouryuujin who is writing a Pokerus Noblity AU based off of my idea.

EDIT: I finally figured something out for Lord Electrode! There are 5 Trials and 5 Rites, and the name of each one has been given. Also added some changes made by @kettouryuujin that I liked.XD

Lord Wyrdeer- Known as the Trial of the Hills, with their Warden’s help the young Stantler must traverse all corners of Hisui, starting in the Obsidian Fieldlands and eventually returning to ascend to the peak of Deertrack Heights. The Stantler must then use Psyshield bash to destroy a tower of stone erected at the peak in order to evolve, and afterwards the Lord and his Warden must erect a new stone tower for the next Lord. This Trial is meant to prepare them for their duty as Lord of carrying the people of Hisui wherever they need to go.

Lord Kleavor- Known as the Trial of the Woods, Scyther’s Warden makes an amulet from the stone of the axe of the previous Lord Kleavor and places it around the heir’s neck. The Scyther must then ascend the Grandtree and slice off the topmost portion of the tree. (I thought of this because I heard somewhere the the tops of old trees are sometimes blown off, making them shorter)

Lord Ursaluna- Known as the Rite of the Moon, the Warden takes the Lord’s heir, who MUST have evolved into an Ursaring by then, to the Sludge Mound on the night of a full moon. Placed at the center of the Mound, the Ursaring is then painted with mud that came from the mud on the back of the previous Lord Ursaluna. Any design can be painted on the heir, but there MUST be a solid circle representing the full moon painted on the Ursaring’s forehead.

Lady Liligant- Known as the Rite or Dance of the Sun, and MUST be performed while the sun is visible. Upon the Brava Arena, the Warden must lead the young Petilil in a dance akin to a Liligant’s Victory Dance.

Lord Basculegion- Known as the Rite of the Waves, this ceremony cannot easily be attended by the Warden of the Lord of the Waves. Instead, the current Lord Basculegion takes his heir down to the Sunken Arena once night has fallen, and calls upon a school of Basculin spirits, as well as the spirit of the first Lady of the Waves. The school of Basculin then combine with the heir, then The Lady(who is not absorbed), and finally, the current Lord Basculegion must be absorbed in his entirety by his heir. As Basculegion can live for a very long time, this Rite is only done when the current Lord is ready to pass on.

Lord Arcanine- Known as the Trial of the Isles. As seen and mentioned in the game, the Growlithe heir must make their way across the water to reach Firespit Island and the Molten Arena. It is their Warden’s duty to train the young pup to brave the waves and make the swim, despite their disadvantage and weakness to water.

Lord Sneasler- Known as the Trial of the Cliffs, once their Warden has trained the Sneasel heir to the best of their ability, they are given an amulet made from the claw of the previous Lord Sneasler. They must start at the base of Mt Coronet and climb to the highest point in Hisui(either the top of the Temple of Sinnoh, or the peak above the Stone Portal if that is too sacred) and meet the rising sun.

Lord Electrode- Known as the Rite of the Hallow, the Warden takes inert seeds collected from the previous Lord Electrode during it’s life and scatters them in a ring in Moonview Arena. The Voltorb heir is then placed in the center of the ring and lets out an electrical attack to spark and recharge the electrical seeds, causing the electrical current to run through the ring and get amplified before surging back to supercharge the Voltorb. This surge of Amplified energy then causes the Lord to evolve.

Lord Braviary- Known as the Trial of the Skies, the young Rufflet must fly a course shown to them by their Warden, taking them from Avalugg’s Legacy to the southern peaks of the Alabaster Icelands, and finally up to the flat square Arena at the top of Snowpoint Temple.(Yes, this is basically the course Sabi makes the player run, but on the ground. Also, I thought the very very top of the Temple was perfectly arena shaped)

Lord Avalugg- Known as the Rite of the Tundra. Rarely happens since Avalugg can be INCREDIBLY long lived, some lasting centuries if nothing kills them. A Lord Avalugg death has only happened once since the Pearl Clan’s arrival(which I HC as being around 1000 years ago). When the previous Lord feels his life comming to an end, he travels to a spot in the Icelands to pass away, leaving behind a mountain of ice and rock, the body of the last Lord coming to be known as Avalugg’s Legacy. Ice and rock is then collected from it by the Warden and taken with the Lord’s heir to Icepeak Arena. The young Bergmite must then consume the ice and rock of the previous Lord in order to evolve.

And yeah, that’s about it. I like that most of these involve some carryover from the previous Lord or Lady, as a sort of passing on the torch to the next generation. Also, feel free to use or change any of these ideas as you see fit.
