elio spurius

a strange traveler, wandering the world of pokemon | she/her | living her best life

[awanderingpriest]

hello, there.

my name is elio spurius, and i am currently a traveling pokemon trainer.

i’m about twenty years old, and have been on this journey for about one year. though, I’ve been handing pokemon ever since i was a small child.

i travel with many pokemon, but my main team consists of Blastoise, Crobat, Zebstrika, Chandelure, Excadrill, and my dear Haxorus. along with that, Sylveon here is our emotional support. please be nice to them all.

fun facts about me? i play the flute, i can bench press 120lbs, and my first ever pokemon was Squirtle, now a Blastoise.

i’m from Torren. i have also seen the borrius region, alola, and kalos. quite lovely places.

can you keep a secret? i was once the Augur of the torren region, but it wasn’t the role for me. don’t worry, the position is in good hands.

thank you for listening! if you’d like, please send in asks, and i’ll do my best to answer.

[3rd-augur-of-torren]

I'm sorry, WHY IS THERE ANOTHER BLOG CLAIMING TO BE ME?!? >:c

ITS THIS A ALTERNATE UNIVERSE SITUATION?!? >:O

@undeserving-hero WHO ARE YOUUUUUUU?!?!

[awanderingpriest]

[awanderingpriest]

You...used to be the augur?....they let you resign? How? - @undeserving-hero

if my circumstances were any different, i most likely would have been obligated to stay.

it wasn’t really a matter of resigning, though. my situation meant that I was, ah…deemed ‘mentally unfit’ to be the region’s augur.

not only that, but I also found a suitable heir to the role— one far more eager to take augurship. i should check in on her sometime…

though i understand how burdensome the title of augur can be. good luck with whatever your future holds.

[undeserving-hero]

Lucky, my region couldn't care less how I was doing mentally.

[awanderingpriest]

have you tried becoming a threat to both yourself and others?

sorry, bad joke. anyone high up in the church you could talk to? or, scratch that, anyone in general? harmony was very kind and helpful once i was, erm, forced to accept help.

The best part of the beach is pretending to fight the ocean by beating the shit outta them waves

[awanderingpriest]

we had a friendly staring contest. wish we sparred, too…

[pokemonranch]

Contest Trainers: This is Bella, she is a Purebreed Sylveon who has won three Sinnohan Beauty Championships and only eats pure gold Pokepuffs

Elite Battle Trainers: This Metagross has three different egg moves, moves at 250 mph and I once saw him decimate a small building by bumping into it.

Mono Type trainers: this is oddish his name is cabbage and his breed is green

[kosmogrl]

learning to accept that i’ll never feel totally okay

[awanderingpriest]

You gave up the claim, allowed your power to wane. Now you stand in lands new, letting go of what you knew.

Do you feel regret about your choices?

@the-final-augur

who are you, exactly? you don’t need to be so theatrical with me.

i don’t care much for power in any case. the position of augur was more of a burden, even if i was at the height of my strength. a burden I realized i can’t bear.

and, well…i do have regrets, yes. for how I treated my loved ones and pokemon both during and after my journey. the harm i caused to others, whether i knew them or not. but what’s done is done, and i am happy where i am now.

if you’re just here to torment me, leave.

[the-final-augur]

Okay fine yeah the rhyming thing was stupid.

We’re simply curious. You can’t blame us for it when there’s an entire multiverse of other places out there.

Yeah. We just wanna know what your place is like. No torment involved. (Unfortunately.)

[awanderingpriest]

and that’s it, i hope?

though, i wouldn’t be opposed to a good fight…

but…fine. if you’re really just curious, then ask away, and i’ll try to answer. no guarantees about anything, though.

i take it you’re like alex. another world?

[the-final-augur]

Alex? No. Someone else, someone you should indeed know.

As for a fight… unfortunately, given our circumstances, we cannot extend resources for such an interaction at this moment.

Firstly, who did you give up the augurship to?

[3rd-augur-of-torren]

Wait, you're from Elio's verse?! Do they know you?!

[the-final-augur]

No

No

Just a uh. Universal constant that I seem to exist.

[3rd-augur-of-torren]

Okay, lemme list down who you guys could be since you're probably using fake names..

Definitely NOT Jaern seeing your reaction to him

I don't think you're Damian nor Nora, you guya don't sound like them..

Audrey? But I don't think she's close to anyone in her cult and I doubt it's Damian as said before.

Reukra or Taen is a possiblity, but seeing how both of you react and you're colours, I don't know.

Could it be?....no..no way...maybe?

I doubt any of the Gym leaders were close enough besides Diana and Calreath, who I don't think would choose those colours of text.

And I doubt that it's anyone other than the cults since you're ominous and evil. Your partner said it yourself.

You better not be who I think you are

[the-final-augur]

For all that listing I sure didn’t hear a guess. Point one to Caerus.

Well tell us who you think we are. Just saying ‘you better not be who I think you are’ sure doesn’t give us much to go on.

[3rd-augur-of-torren]

Yeah that's because I think I know who you guys are. I wasn't guessing, just listing out for me. Though I'm uncertain if I want to be vocal with my assumtion.

Ill ask Elio first, and see what she thinks.

[the-final-augur]

Assumtion

Really mature there. Seriously.

What? I get to be goofy online. I can be silly on occasion.

…

Anywho- er- how do you know you’re right? I could be anyone! I could be you! I could be me! I could even be-

We’re not doing this joke.

[3rd-augur-of-torren]

....is that you

Zenith and Oracle?

[the-final-augur]

Nope!

Wrong.

Good guess though.

[3rd-augur-of-torren]

Okay, throwing guesses now

Taen and Reukra?

[the-final-augur]

…You’re seriously just throwing guesses against a wall?

At least give some REASONING here!

[3rd-augur-of-torren]

LOOK IM NOT THE BRIGHTEST OK, THERES A REASON WHY I BECAME A TRAINER INSTEAD OF GOING TO SCHOOL LIKE MY SISTER!

am i right tho?

[the-final-augur]

Are you? :)

[3rd-augur-of-torren]

Idk, am I?

Ok on a serious note, are yall conected to the cult in some way, if so anwser the first question.

[awanderingpriest]

(cough) should i be, uh, stopping this fight in my reblogs? my phone’s buzzing nonstop….

[awanderingpriest]

Firstly, who did you give up the augurship to?

[awanderingpriest]

you’re sure you don’t want to fight because of that?

augurship went to a highly trusted and beloved member of the church. she’s a bit on the young side, but not as young as me when I took up the role of augur. i’ve got trust in her, and my friends make sure to update me on any situation.

at least she’s not making any bastard children that will eventually overthrow her. haha, take notes jaern. all you had to do was not—

never mind.

that being said, while i was augur, i had to implement several, erm, changes in the way the church handled its members. cults have become less common since then, which…thank goodness. i hope my successor builds on that.

[the-final-augur]

Yes. I am sure. Though, anonymity is also a concern.

JAERN??? JAERN HAS A KID??? THAT GUY??? WHAT.

…I see all professionalism has been lost.

JAERN HAS A FUCKING KID???

[awanderingpriest]

(sigh) yes, yes, jaern has a child. and it’s me. technically a bastard, too, since it was a one night stand.

stupid. even when he wasn’t augur, he had a vow to celibacy and everything! at least he’s been ousted from power.

[the-final-augur]

Hang on I have to go write a letter to mine to ask him something

Caerus- no-

Dear shithead, it has come to my attention…

…Ahem, I’ll suppose you aren’t incredibly close with your father?…

[awanderingpriest]

real mature. i remember when i first learned to swear…

for the longest time, we did not like each other in the slightest. i think he wanted me dead, too. the feeling was mutual.

but we’ve grown past that after the major cult problem was resolved. we’re not lovey father/daughter, exactly, but i like think there’s no remaining bad blood between us.

we haven’t contacted each other in awhile, though. hope he’s no dead in a ditch, somewhere.

OKAY I NEED HELP!

IVE TRIED ASKING FOR HELP BUT HELP AINT COMING FAST ENOUGH!

I caught this pokemon last month (at least, I think it's a pokemon) and named it Slasher since I saw it slash things up before I caught it. Today I decided to let it out of it's ball...

AND THE FIRST THING IT STARTS TO DO IS SLASH EVERYTHING IN SIGHT (except me because I think it knows that I'm its trainer)

SERIOUSLY

HALF OF THE TREES ON ROUTE 17 ARE CUT IN HALF! I DON'T KNOW HOW TO CALM IT DOWN IT'S MOVING TOO FAST! I HAD TO ISSUE A WARNING FOR CIVILLANS TO STAY IN THEIR HOMES BECAUSE IT ALMOST SLASHED A PERSON IN HALF! IM CURRENTLY TRYING TO STOP IT BUT DON'T KNOW HOW :C

IMMA LEAVE A PICTURE HERE INCASE ANYONE CAN HELP

@awanderingpriest this is the mon

This is from when I first caught it.

please help :c

[awanderingpriest]

oh, goodness…

i’ve seen a pokemon like that, back when i visited the Alola region. Ultra Beasts, they call them. i think this one is named ‘Kartana’? unbelievably fast and hits hard, but folds as easily as paper when hit by moves.

if you can’t get it under control, as a last resort…a fire-type move should suffice.
