Hello hello, and welcome to AskTheOger, a Pokemon ask blog run by @lavender-tea-dragon! The story follows a young Ogerpon gijinka named Aya and her adventures around the land of Kitakami! Please keep asks appropriate and don't be a jerk ^^
Hey there! Like my introduction says, my name's Wren! My pronouns are he/him and they/them. I'm from the Sinnoh region, and I'm currently studying in Paldea! I've made this blog to document anything I wanna share about my experiences, and to interact with other people!
I am a Pokémon Trainer, so feel free ask me any questions about that or my Pokémon if you'd like to. You can even ask me about my life in Sinnoh or something. I'm open to anything, really.
I'm potentially hoping to share some of my experiences to new Trainers, or just make some friends! This photo was taken from my dorm here at the Academy, and I'll probably post photos now and then as well.
Feel free to reach out if you're curious about anything! I'll answer ya when I have the time to.
OOC from this point in the post onwards. Blog run by @skyeshuttle.
New little blog I made! Plan to run this in my free time, honestly.
It features my (admittedly favorite) Pokémon OC, Wren! It'll be half-irl pokeblog and half-askblog, since I figure that'll be the most fun for me.
I just wanna have some fun with this blog, honestly. So it won't be too serious. For now, it'll mainly be ask-based (more-so random for the irl pokeblog aspect), but I plan to develop some sort of storyline with this blog in the future.
Feel free to interact with other pokeblogs or askblogs! I'd be willing to set up mini-storylines with other blogs, too.
As for the content on this blog, aside from how it'll be framed for now, I plan to have it be art-based! It won't always be full-quality shaded images and may just be sketches for a time. The kind of art will depend on my art motivation! But if I don't have any motivation to draw, I'll most likely stick with textposts. I'll try not to have textpost replies to asks, but again, it depends on my motivation.
It'll probably be more active around June 14th, as that's when my finals will be over and I'll be out for the summer.
As for anything else: I'm open to any asks except NSFW, or extremely violent/gore-y content. I won't have an askbox limit yet, since the blog is relatively new, but I may implement one in the future to prevent burnout!
That's all from @skyeshuttle for now. The blog is now officially open to interactions!
I know I haven't been active on any of my blogs for a while now, and it's probably going to stay that way for a while. I've been hit with a really really bad mix of depression and burnout that makes it exhausting just to get out of bed each morning.
I'm coming out here to say that Ask the Oger and all my other story blogs are going to be on hiatus until further notice. I do want to finish them one day, but that day probably isn't for a long while. If you still want to contact me or say hi or anything, I'm more likely to check my discord (lavenderteadragon)
Wo @ Aya: "I hope you don't mind if I introduce you to someone, and I also hope that the one I want to introduce doesn't scare you or your family."
Pao: (he was careful as he made his way over) "You must be Aya. I'm Pao. Wo's been talking about a sharing project, and he wanted me to meet you. Your family can talk to me too, if they want."
"If you're Mr. Wo's friend, then you're my friend, too!" The Ogerpon smiled, before inhaling deeply. "You look so soft and sparkly??? Can I pet you??? What are you and Mr. Wo sharing???"
Pao: "Wo was wondering if he could share what he grows with you and your family! I'm gonna help him to get what he grows from his allotment to where you guys live! ..if that's okay with you guys.."
He moved in front of Aya and lowered his head so she could pet him.
Pao: "You may! I don't get that asked to me very often, but it's nice when it is~! I'm gonna be a bit chilly to the touch, so I hope you don't mind!"
Aya smiled, rubbing the fur on Pao's head and scratching behind his ears, letting out a delighted squeak. "Oh!! You feel kinda like snow!!" She explained, giggling as she continued to pet him.
"I would like that a lot!!" The Ogerpon smiled. "Mr. Wo's vegetables are super yummy!! They're even better than my Oto-San's- don't tell him that I said that," she whispered.
Idk I just feel….like I’m taking up space. I really wanna get back into this community, but I am so so bad at interacting with others, and I’m not even producing anything, nor do I have the motivation to draw anything for any of my blogs right now. This sucks and I hate it so much. I’m taking up space that someone better at writing and drawing and with a better schedule could use. I know it’s good to rest every now and then, but I feel like I’ve been resting FOR MONTHS. That’s way too long. I don’t have any excuse to be lazy and not produce anything. I feel like this happens with ALL of my projects. I just….can’t finish them. And that really sucks and I’m scared that might happen to this blog but I don’t want it to because I love Aya’s story and I want to share it with everyone and it’s just. Hard to because my some other part of my brain doesn’t want to lock in and work on it for some reason!!!
If your ogre child spawns right beside you what would you do?
I’d probably try to figure out how she got here in the first place! XD I’d want her to be able to return home eventually (her dads would probably be worried sick!) but until then, I’d probably talk with her, take her out into town, and show her around a little! I’d take her to a cat cafe, buy her some pizza, take her to a smash room- just let her explore and experience stuff she hasn’t before! ^^
Munday: outside Pokémon, which franchises are you interesting in right now?
I've been playing Cookie Run quite a bit, my Milgram hyperfixation is still going strong, an irl friend's starting up a DnD Campaign that I'm really excited for, and, of course, there's always Genshin Impact! XD I'm also planning to try out Arknights sometime soon, so I might end up hyperfixating on that, too!
Monday ask real talk: was there a point in your life where you hated pokemon?
Hmmm...I don't think so. At least, not a period of time where I've hated the series. There was, however, a point in time (I think it was 2021?) where I was ashamed/hated being part of the community- it was before my Tumblr days....I was most active on a site where quite a few users were tired of the recent influx of Pokemon content, and a lot of the prominent forum fans were pretty toxic, horny rp-ers. The combo of these two just....made me feel really bad about liking and creating Pokemon content, and it's what made me try to distance myself/branch out from the series a little bit.
What are your biggest inspirations creatively for this blog
Hmmm....(assuming you mean what gives me the inspiration to keep going) I'd say it's a mix of pure passion/hyperfixation and wanting to see Aya interact and have fun with other characters! When I talk to other person about my story and characters, or see someone answer an ask I sent, it gives me a little *WHOOOOOSHHHH* of inspiration! Similarly (as shallow as it seems) I feel inspired to create when other people like and reblog and comment on posts- it makes me wanna continue the story, since so many people seem to enjoy it!
I know I've been really slow to update this blog recently, and I apologize for that- I had a pretty rough depressive/burnout period from December to February. I got officially diagnosed with depression and anxiety and got put on some antidepressants, so I'm feeling a bit better now. :] I definitely wanna keep updating this blog, but it might be a bit on the slower side!

Only two Pokemon, adorned with sashes annd matching badges, exited the subway car. The Reuniclus waved back, albeit a little awkwardly, to the other passengers- to his dismay, no one payed any mind.
The Buneary glanced at him, a mildly annoyed expression on their face. “Stop wasting your time,” they reprimanded, rolling their eyes. “It’s supposed to be up ahead, right?”
“Oh- yes, I think so!” The Reuniclus nodded, quickly shaking off the downcast expression he displayed a moment prior.
“Good,” they nodded, promptly ascending up the set of stairs with a sigh. “Let’s hope this goes smoother than last time.”
Wo made his way over to Aya and her family, holding what looked like the biggest wrapped box.
Wo: "I hope you like this~! Be careful, though, it is a bit on a heavy side..!"
(Inside was a variety of produce from his allotment, ranging from fruits and veggies to flowers)
The young Ogerpon struggled to lift the hefty gift. “It’s so big!!! Look at all of them!!” She smiled, turning to show her dads. “Can we have them for dinner tonight??? Please please please???”
“Sounds good to me!” Kenji agreed, gently lifting the basket from his clearly struggling daughter. “Let me get that for ya, kiddo.”
“Ooh, is that lavender I smell?” Miu asked, eyes lighting up as he picked a stalk out of the collection.
“Yup yup, Father! There’s a bunch of other flowers too, n’ fruits and veggies and and and-“
Tomo glanced over the produce and his family, before looking up at Wo, hesitantly giving him a nod. “…..Thank you. We’ll put these to good use.”
I saw a glimpse of a certain bastard in Momo’s TH and I couldn’t resist drawing something for it!I see what you’re doing over there, I’m looking, I'm i n t e r e s t e dNo but really, I hope I did this justice! And I hope that it was ok to dabble into it given what this implies for the blog.
