  2. Last bit of fanfiction spam for a while

    Villains of Out of the Jungle

    King Earthen XVIII – The most recent King of the Earth People, notorious for their poor treatment of their enemies yet holding a high regard for nature. He seeks to shatter the Crystals of Spirit, in particular the Fairy Crystal.

    Ultron (yo can you throw another name for me it’s a bit awkward using a marvel name XD) – The rogue Prince of the Fire People, who guard the Fire Crystal with their life. His Volcorona is known as the ‘Sun Bringer’ , believed to be the reincarnation of the Volcorona which saved the nation during one hundred years of darkness.

    Fairy of Chaos – A mysterious, insane boy who appears to be the last of the Fair Folk, thought to he extinct. He seeks to help both sides, as he wants their war to tear the world asunder. He’s open about his goal, and revels in the distraught he brings. He loves when his victims know that his help will be a hindrance in the future.

    • And my Legendary trio is the Weather trio with three new weathe-. Actually kind of two but the one appeared once in a game and I’m modifying it

  3. So my trio should they have secondary types because heres thier main structure

    Fog Legendary- kind of based on floating white manta ray that blends with fog it flies over head and leads heavy fog at its wake it does this to protect and moisturize its fragile skin. Its already Flying type

    Thunder ball Legendary- a strange creature that conceals itself inside of an armor like body (it has arms and a head that work like goletts that can be pulled in to form a shell) it forms Thunder all around itself and goes on wild rampages throughout the night as its energy overwhelms it. So far only Electric type

    Finally the Acid Legendary- born of the pollution found in cities and the venoms of elsewhere it lives for danger and likes to create Acid Rain and have it drizzle around it as it rejuvenates them, yet they live away from society to keep from harming the Populist. So far just Poison type

    • That poison legend is basically my Box Legend
      Toxigeddon
      The Contamination Pkm
      Poison/Ground
      Smog Zone: a noxious smog envelopes the battlefield; During Noxious Smog all Pokemon are considered poisoned and take damage at the end of the turn
      (Ergo moves such as Venoshock Venom Drench, Facade, Hex will have their additional effects while abilities such as Poison Heal, Guts, Marval Scale and Quick Feet will be activated)

      This leviathan Pokemon vaguely reptilian in nature is a massive lumbering mass of blackish purple sludge and tainted soil, it walks with its dripping hands and feet with a tail sagging behind. it’s hands have four wide fingers that drips sludge with its pores and its feet are flat with three globby toes, it walks on all fours, on its back is a hardened shell made out of crusty sludge and dirt on said shell are several thin volcano shaped pores that resembles smokestacks constantly spewing out polluted oxygen from every intake, it’s face is grotesquely deformed with three large yellow eyes in the middle of its head in resemblance of the nuclear waste symbol, several gill slits on its longish neck and a beastly mouth dripping drool of pure poisonous filth
      “a nightmarish Pokemon that has once plagued the Eyanu region, it’s body is a living biohazard that causes anything in its path to be contaminated, it was born when somebody tainted the Ancestral Spirit Grounds”

      • And its counterpart
        Gaiasis
        The Purity Pkm
        Grass/Flying
        Tranquility: When this Pokemon is on the field statuses are cured and Pokemon on the field regain HP at the end of their turn
        This majestic Pokemon resembles a great bird, it’s massive wings a verdant green with each feather a bright petal of either pink, yellow, white and orange, it’s body lacks feet and its tail feathers are silky and long ending with three long streamers, it’s neck has a collar of leaves and a long stem like neck, it’s head highly resembles a bird of paradise flower, with a long reddish green beak, and a crest of spiky orange plumes and pure white slits for eyes
        “Benevolent and peaceful, it can turn barren wastelands into lush vibrant forests by scattering its feathers, it clashed with humans who attempted to harm the Enyanu Region’s ecosystem”

  4. So I was thinking about what if we ever got another game in Kanto. Since they released RBGY on VC I actually already have a team set as my “Kanto team”, but I was thinking about if I had to choose another team from Kanto and who they’d actually be. I’ve decided that this would be my team. (In no particular order) It would take a little trading to evolve some into their proper forms, but it could be cool lol https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/cd39bd5f897af78f9e60c627b78448a2889a0587beebc2730c8fd3c8bccf1cff.png

    • It’s usually
      Charizard
      Primeape
      Nidoking
      Rhydon
      Aerodactyl
      Snorlax

      I have never not had a Nidoking during any of my Kanto runs
      Sometimes I mix it up with
      Sandslash/Dugtrio
      Parasect
      Vileplume/Victreebel
      This one run with Casc and Star Bits I used a Hypno and liked it
      During the Red VC I used a Dewgong
      Kabutops
      Slowbro that one time
