Adaman, completely serious: Sir, it has been reported lately that you do, in fact, have big little paw-paws and a little heart nose. Do you care to comment?
Leafeon: *Meows*
Adaman: Riveting.
Irida, walking in: Am I interrupting something?

“Once there were two. And one looked upon time's steady pace. And one looked upon the expanse of space.
“And the two set out: the fullness of future did they seek, the world's far end would they greet.
“Two different paths— each walking alone a path their own, though they walk with almighty Sinnoh.”

PLA boys taking care of you when you're sick
Adaman 
the moment you feel something coming on, he’s insistent that you rest
he’ll continuously be warming soup for you
oh how he worries
but he puts on a smile and takes care of you to the best of his ability
he asks Mai to take on some of his duties/tasks so he can be with you at all times, and she’s happy to do so
but not before a slight argument about it
the cuddling will be nonstop
and you bet his and your Pokémon will be joining in
he keeps you SO warm
the forehead kisses are constant
he’ll even read/share bedtime stories with you if you’re willing to listen
anything you need, he’s on it
and once you feel better, he’s resuming his leadership duties
but he’s not taking his focus away from you
he’s got you by his side
“And don’t think for a moment that I’m gonna stop pampering you because you’re better… because I’m not.”
Volo
Volo is very much a wanderer
but when you’re sick, he’s staying put
he hates to see you in such a dreadful state
and he can’t bear to leave you until you’re feeling better
while you nap, he’s out collecting herbs and medicinal leeks 
he’ll make your favorite soup
and he’ll hand feed it to you
he’s a deranged; touch starved lunatic, so you bet he’s holding you at all times
his Arcanine will be your pillow (and your heat source)
and Togekiss is your entertainment
while he’s searching for herbs and leeks, he’ll also be hunting for little trinkets for you
because his poor, sick s/o has to have something special
this man has an ABUNDANCE of stories to share with you
and he’ll share ALL OF THEM, even if you don’t ask
once you’re feeling better, he’ll pack up and head out
you WILL be getting a kiss on the cheek (or lips) before he departs
“I’ll be back soon, y/n. If you start feeling ill again, I’ve left the recipe for the soup I made on the table.”
Melli
you’re sick, and Melli does NOT like that
he distances himself from you
and not just because of how gross you sound
but he’s TERRIFIED of getting sick himself
he’ll speak to you through letters delivered by Pokémon
and they’re very sweet letters
but once Adaman finds out that he’s ‘too good’ to take care of you…
you can hear that scolding from across the Diamond Clan settlement 
Melli will slowly approach you
and he’s absolutely disgusted
you can 10000000% tell that smile is forced
but once he settles in
he’s trying his best to help you
he’s hesitant to cuddle with you
but he assumes there’s no other choice
and once he feels how hot you are, he holds you a little tighter
since he’s here, he may as well be close to you
he apologizes for being rude, something he would NEVER do for anyone else
and he’ll send Pokémon to Adaman to request recipes for soups
you’ll probably end up making them yourself, though, because Melli can’t cook at all
he’ll learn eventually
once you start feeling better, Melli does indeed get sick
because he’s always running from illness, his immune system is a bit weaker
but you’re there for him regardless
“Can I have some soup?”

Oh wow would you look at that I’ve got my own wing au. It was only a matter of time, folks.
So in my wing au, flight was developed in humans by the time modern day rolls around. Ingo can fly, Emmet can fly, basically everyone can fly. There are a select few who can’t due to factors like small wings, but those are few and most people are entirely capable of flying.
However, when Ingo gets Eebie Deebied, he is taken to a time where humans haven’t developed flight yet. Their bones are too dense, their wings too small, or their feathers too short. There are a few who can glide, like Melli, but that’s only over short distances and they gotta be elevated to begin with.
So in comes this hulking figure in the eyes of the hisuians that, not only has absolutely massive wings, but can fly with those wings. Like full take-off to landing flying and can fly for a while. He clearly does this often, it’s second nature. It’s terrifying, no doubt, but it’s also extremely useful for the terrain. The sky-bird is ominous and imposing but he’s actually quite friendly and helpful where he can be. One thing to another, he still becomes Sneasler’s warden, now added benefits being he can easily keep up with her when she scales the mountain and he doesn’t have to ride in her pack all the time.
Then Akari comes in, and is much of a similar presence as Ingo. Imposing and intimidating with the broad wingspan, broader than most, if not all, adults. To boot, she’s incredibly energetic and not the best coordinated when it comes to flying, crashing around like a newly fledged Starley. While it’s endearing and definitely lessens the impact of her size, the Galaxy Team is weary of her honing her flight skills, unsure of what she could or would do if she fully got a grasp on her coordination in the skies. But she’s nice enough. Headstrong and stubborn but caring and helpful to those around her.
When Ingo and Akari meet, Akari instantly recognizes the physique and size of a modern human. Near instantly she latches to Ingo, and Ingo has no complaints on the matter, more than happy to finally share the skies with someone. Better yet, he gets to teach her how to fly properly and gracefully.
Somewhere, in the skies of the Mirelands, a creature circles the skies, on the hunt.
Enjoy!

Adaman the Symbol of Time
 p(An Analysis on the character design of Adaman from Pokemon Legends of Arceus and it’s relation to time and art history.)
A lot of the characters form PLA are similar in terms of design. The characters that do not follow the standard hoodies, tunics, guild jumpsuits ,and kimonos have a lot of interesting art history associated with them.  I love Adaman’s design in particular since he is literally a symbol of time. 
Well...isn’t this obvious since he is the Diamond Clan leader and associated with Dialga? Yes, but there is a lot more subtle aspects to his design that link him with a specific form or Japanese Art.  But let’s first look at the obvious references to Dialga .
Tumblr media
In Adaman’s design they use a lot of blues and and silver that you can see shared with Dialga.  They also use the Diamond clan symbol that is shaped to look like Dialga’s chest gem repeatedly in the coat and accessories.  Adaman’s coat/jacket is most likely a nod to the Japanese Haori.  It is even tied with a fancy beaded Himo chord to keep it closed. If you look at the shoes you can see in the concept art that even the bottom of them are supposed to look like Dialga’s feet in their regular form and on the top of the shoe like the legendary Pokemon’s face.  All this information is very interesting and nice seeing how the character and the Pokemon are related even thematically.  
However, it’s crossed your mind (even briefly) that Adaman’s design is not directly one to one with Dialga. He isn’t a Dialga gijinka. There are elements and colors that Adaman uses that the legendary Pokemon does not.  We can brush it off as Adaman having a flair and his importance as a Diamond Clan leader to set him apart. But this is where it gets interesting. His outfit is generally just fashionable and we can choose to look at it like that on a surface level.  But if you look deeper you see a more symbolic meaning.
Tumblr media
Adaman is Kintsugi . What is that? Kintsugi is a Japanese art technique that repairs pottery using lacquer and gold dust.  Adaman also has similar gold veins running through his clothing.  For someone who is so “put together” looking, why would you intentionally create jagged and uneven elements other than for aesthetic? This is because for my understanding, this is yet another way the character designer chose to express Adaman’s connection to time.
Kintsugi is a beautiful form of art and philosophy.  The idea is not to hide the cracks and flaws, but to turn it into something more beautiful and strong.  It represents the passage of time and a documentation of the harsh conditions in which we pass through. But ultimately it is a celebration of survival and growth.  It is also a metaphor for embracing your flaws and imperfections.
One translation defines the word  kintsugi as golden “golden seams”. So, Adaman is kind of a symbol of kintsugi pottery and philosophy.  The part about this design that confused me the most was his hair since it’s also not standard colored and is quite unique. But I realized that if we are equating him to pottery, the hair might be colored that way to imitate pottery glazes (the stuff they put on ceramics to give it color.)
On another interesting note, Adaman has lots of signs of past injury. We see this with the bandages on his arms and hands, the cut brow which is a remnant of injury and survival, and then the very intentional jagged gold claw marks on his back.  The back gold lines are sharp looking and contrast with the rest of the designs which is fluid and rounded.  It’s bringing attention to the marks.
Tumblr media
Image sources: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6
We can interpret a lot from this design. It also raises many questions. The jagged golden marks and Adaman’s bandaged arms implies that he has been “damaged” or “broken” in some sense. This could be taken literally or symbolically. We don’t know what happened to him.  Maybe he was attacked by an alpha Pokemon and survived a severe injury that he now incorporates into this aesthetic as a way to show that he was able to come back from that.  Or maybe it’s referring to his leadership as a young Diamond Clan leader and the mistakes he made and had to learn from. 
So in conclusion. From what I can understand , if we were to wrap up all the motifs, Adaman’s design ultimately seems to just represent a passage of time. Breakage and repair are just proof of time passing and represent history and life. And I think that is really cool.  
These are all my speculations and none of it is canon you can disagree if you want. These are just things I have observed and made note of that I believe makes the character far more interesting and fleshed out.  There is a lot of deep and meaningful things you can pull from this if you want to expound further through fanart and fanfic.  
EDITS/NOTES:
So a lot of people asked if the arm and hand wraps are for fighting. They aren’t. In every form of fighting and martial arts that involves wrapping(taping) your knuckles, you wrap between each finger and around your knuckles several times to cushion them.  You do their for wrist stability, prevent injury, and joint restriction.  Failing to wrap your hands correctly will result in fractures, broken fingers and knuckles, and metal carpet boss.  Not only are Adaman’s knuckles exposed when he clenches his fists, there is no wrapping supporting his wrists on the left hand.  If he is wrapping them to fight, he is doing a very bad job at it.
Tumblr media
I did research on this before writing the initial post and came to this conclusion, but I guess I’ll add it now for those that had questions.
Tumblr media
Another interesting note is that the Diamond Clan symbol also looks like a stylized version of the characters for gold.  This same character also does appear in the work kintsugi.
Adaman’s name is interesting too since it’s not really a common name.  In fact, it seems to be a play on word “adamant” which usually refers to someone who is not willing to change their mind or opinion.  HOWEVER , Adamant is an archaic diamond found in Greek/Roman mythology.  It is a bit of a legendary diamond of sorts. The name is derived from the Greek word for diamond. “adámas”.
Tumblr media
If you remember, in the Diamond and Pearl games you can use the “Adamant Orb” to increase the dragon/steel type moves of Dialga by 20% if they hold it. In Pokemon Legends Arceus you can get the “Adament Crystal from Adaman.  This can be used to switch Dialga between Origin and normal form.  
Also random interesting thought. The diamond clan settlement is located in the crimson mirelands. Out of the different areas, this one has the most ideal conditions to create pottery clay next to bodies of water (Lake valor) , the scarlet bog, and the mountainous areas surrounding the settlement. Very similar to the Mashiko and Hagi pottery villages in japan.
