Don’t mind me
I don’t see much art of some of the xyz characters, perhaps due to them being anime OCs. One of them being Aria, Serena’s ultimate rival whom she lost which I compare it with Alain and Ash’s rivalry and both couldn’t achieve their goals in the Kalos series.
I saw some fanart of her here and there but mostly it was her with Cilan which I first thought it was some rare pair or crackship or something like that and tbh I never watched or played black and white, but it later grew on me regardless and now I think they look cute together. Maybe as the Kalos Queen she might’ve started performing in other regions such as Unova where she could’ve met Cilan, but who knows…
Anyway, thought I might draw her more with my OC if that’s alright…

TLOK sketch (first draft) ✍🏻
My head is filled with my interests/hyperfixations and the created AUs and OCs so I think it’s abt time I kick them out so they’ll stop living in my head rent-free. It’s been a long time since I last posted smth here ever since I turned my back on Tumblr and decided to be now active on TikTok, but I’ll try to make an effort to go back from time to time, but I’ll be mostly active on TikTok so y’all can go and check it out if you want.
Anyways, now that we have addressed the elephant in the room, have some of my TLOK AU and a few adult characters from the show in their teens. A few extras about this AU can be found in TikTok regarding opinions about bloodbending and little fauna. I have seen TLOK reviews on YouTube and it made me start rewriting the show little by little whenever I feel like it (with my very Shakespeare levels of writing of course ✍🏻)

An Azure Fluke - Pilot
A six-year-old girl in an azure dress was found unconscious near Snowpoint City by a few passersby and was quickly taken to a hospital. It was considered almost a miracle when she finally woke up after several days. People began to question her mysterious appearance—and the strange scar on her wrist. But the child herself was confused, frightened, and overwhelmed. Unable to bear the questions and the unfamiliar surroundings, she fled the hospital.
Stepping outside, she realized with shock that she was somewhere entirely unknown. Lost and terrified, she wandered until she reached a forest, calling out desperately,
“René! René!”
But no one answered her cries. For hours she shouted that name into the emptiness until exhaustion overcame her. She collapsed to the ground, crouching and weeping in despair.
Her sobs, however, did not go unheard. A Ralts and a Snorunt—two Pokémon who had watched over her even after the townspeople discovered her—approached quietly. Was it curiosity that drew them close? Compassion? Concern? Or perhaps pity for the lonely child?
The moment she noticed them, she froze in fear. Panic surged through her as memories flashed back of what the *first creature* she had met had done to her. She scrambled to her feet and screamed,
“Go away! Go away! I can’t find my brother anymore because of what you did! You took him away from me!”
The two Pokémon didn’t move. Their calmness frightened her even more, and she turned and ran blindly through the forest. But her escape only brought her face-to-face with an enormous Ursaring. The creature loomed over her, growling fiercely. She was paralyzed with terror.
Just as the Ursaring lunged, the Ralts and Snorunt reappeared. Ralts cast a shimmering barrier in front of her, while Snorunt released a freezing Ice Beam that trapped the beast in solid ice.
The girl stared at the frozen Ursaring, then slowly turned to look at her two unlikely saviors. They hadn’t come to harm her—only to help. The realization sank in: not all of these mysterious creatures were cruel. Though still shaken, she felt a spark of gratitude.
From that day onward, Ralts and Snorunt stayed by her side, protecting her whenever danger arose.
Time passed. Later, the trio encountered an old man in a heavy coat, carrying a worn suitcase. Perhaps he too had wandered into the forest, drawn by the loud crash that had echoed moments earlier. When he arrived at the scene and saw the massive Ursaring encased in ice, he froze in astonishment.
(Yeaaahhh…. So um my bad for disappearing for 3 months. I was planning to post stuff during summer break, but I got too lazy to do anything after I was done with middle school and mentally preparing myself for university. But despite that, I still wanted to finish it so that I could start drawing other things I had in mind. I guess I might just draw a few doodles bit by bit to not give myself more work but rather do it as in forms of relaxation and not the opposite. Can’t promise if the next post will be soon, but I’ll see what I can do!)
YESSS JULIAAAA 🙏🙏 I don't support incest, obvi, i just like the game 😓 Julia deserved a non-sister-kissing bf 😭
New comfort character alert!
Yep, I got a new intrest up my but, as I’m still working on my Pokémon OC lore/story/drawings AND school assignments bc soon I’m gonna have exams in June (hurray). That still didn’t stop me to find out more abt this game, infamous for reasons I am not gonna mention, but it depends on which route you pick so I am not gonna hate that for it since I guess it’s based on what choices you make.
I haven’t played the game myself, but I did see others play it on the internet and looked up a few things. So far if I’m not mistaken, the mother left the two in an apartment at a young age. Both siblings are unhinged (especially Ashley), and both of them somehow end up in the netherworld where they meet a demon or smth. Later, they eat their neighbour(s?) and commit a lot of crimes bc of Ashley. Andrew meets Julia, who happens to be a friend of Nina, who died bc of Ashley. Ashley also harassed Julia for being close to him, resulting in their breakup. Andrew kinda didn’t care much abt it, since he only did it out of pity, he never really loved her, which I found it really sad. The siblings unalive their parents and sacrifice them to the demon, and I guess the mother also had some lore. A lot of bad stuff basically summed up, but pls correct me if I’m wrong tcoaal players.
Anyways, *ahem*
JULIA THE INNOCENT QUEEN THAT YOU ARE, YOU DID NOT DESERVE THIS! PLS COME WITH ME, AND ILL TREAT YOU MUCH BETTER, JUST PLS COME WITH ME! YOU DESERVE MUCH BETTER THAN THIS JERK, SCREW HIM! (I love her your honour)
So now that’s out of the way, I’ll just say that it’s pretty obvious who my fav character is, based on their character and personality of course, since the game environment is straight up corrupted. Although it’s just wishful thinking for me, but I really wished that Andrew and Julia ended up together as a happy family one day in the future after everything that happened… Oh well, I guess I’ll just make an AU where the mother wasn’t awful and raised her children properly, and not making Ashley a monster, just an alternate reality where they’re all living their happy and normal lives together… (hint hint, nudge nudge)
Don't forget us🙏🏻
In Gaza, 🇵🇸🍉
🚨flour is scarce, and hunger is gnawing at my children's stomachs. 🚨‼️
We either die of hunger or bombing
For months, my family and I haven't tasted any fresh vegetables or meat. Obtaining bread has become an impossible task. Hunger has reached the point where we've been forced to sell some of our personal and household belongings, which we acquired after our house was completely demolished, to raise money for our basic needs amid the skyrocketing prices of flour and other scarce goods available in the markets.
The severe restrictions imposed by the Israeli occupation authorities on the entry of humanitarian aid and commercial goods have led to the depletion of everything in the markets and the rise in prices. As a result, famine has "eaten" our bodies. Due to the intense hunger, we eat flour that is infested with weevils and insects.
Our children need milk,Pampers،food،basic needs🙏🏻
In these pictures My sons , My nephews, nieces My sister's children
My sisters .can you see our pain and feel our hunger?!
Fear, death, famine, siege, suffering, oppression, silence of the world?!!
I am calling your humanity to do whatever you can to ease our pain

💬 Just a Small Update, and a Big Thank You
Dear friends, kind hearts, and everyone who has stood with us,
When I first opened my heart to the world and shared our story, I never imagined the amount of love and solidarity we would receive. Thanks to your incredible support, we’ve now reached $12,837—a milestone that brings real light to some very dark days.
From the deepest corners of my heart, thank you.
💔 A Journey of Loss, but Also of Strength
As many of you know, I’ve lost 25 of my loved ones during this devastating war. That grief lives with me every single day. It’s in the silence that once held laughter, in the empty spaces where we once gathered as a family.
But through your help, I’ve also felt something else: hope. And that hope is priceless.
“21/Oct/2023 Before It Reached Us: The Day Our Neighbor’s House Was Destroyed” A quiet moment of fear, filmed just before everything changed.
“22/Oct/2023 The Morning After: Our Family Home in Ruins” This is what was left behind after the bombing of our home.
🌿 What Life Looks Like for Us Now
Despite everything, we’re still here. Still surviving. Still hoping.
But things have only gotten harder.
The war has returned, more brutal than before—and for over a month now, Gaza has been completely sealed off. No food is coming in. No medical supplies. No aid. No trade. No one is allowed to leave, and no one is allowed to enter.
We’re trapped.
🏚 We live with the fear of tomorrow, every single day. Airstrikes, drones, and the uncertainty of what might happen next. 👨👩👧 Our family is forever changed—we haven’t just lost people; we’ve lost pieces of ourselves. 📉 Basic needs go unmet—even clean water feels like a luxury now. Medicines, if they exist at all, are unreachable.
And yet…
Your support reminds us that we’re not forgotten. It reminds us that someone, somewhere, is still listening. That someone still cares. That we’re not completely alone in this.
Every message. Every share. Every dollar. It tells us: You’re walking this road with us. And that gives us the strength to keep going.
💖 What You Can Do
If you’ve already donated—thank you beyond words. If you can share our story again, it could reach someone who can help.
Even $5 means warmth, comfort, and a chance to breathe a little easier.
My name is Mosab Elderawi, and I am a survivor of the war in Gaza. Life as I knew it has been completely destroyed. I have lost my home, my
✨ Why It All Matters
This isn’t just about reaching a fundraising goal. It’s about surviving war with dignity. It’s about believing in tomorrow. It’s about making sure my daughter grows up knowing that the world did not look away.
Thank you for your kindness, patience, and belief in our humanity. You’ve helped me find my voice—and I will use it to keep hope alive.
🙏 From the Heart: A Quiet Apology
There’s something I need to say—something that’s been on my heart for some time.
When I first began sharing our story, I didn’t know what the right way was. I was scared, grieving, and trying to protect my family in any way I could. I reached out to many people, hoping someone, anyone, would see us. In that process, I now realize I may have overstepped, and I might have made some feel overwhelmed.
If that happened, I am truly sorry.
Please believe me when I say it was never out of disregard or pushiness. It came from a place of fear—fear of being forgotten, fear of not being able to keep my family safe, fear of watching everything I love slip away in silence.
I’m learning as I go. I’ve slowed down. I’m more mindful now, trying to share our journey in a way that feels respectful of the space and hearts of those listening.
If my words ever came at the wrong time, or in the wrong way, I hope you can understand where they came from—and I hope you can forgive me.
Thank you for seeing past my mistakes. Thank you for still being here. It means more than I can ever explain.

POKÉMON (OC) SCRIBBLES (and descriptions…)
LALIAH RENARD (AU)
Yes, I added AZ there, because I kiiinda made things a bit different where Team Flare kidnaps him and take his key for his weapon and would later also take Xerneas for Team Flare to use it as a means for the “chosen” ones to be given eternal life. That would be his first plan to recreate the world, as well as the whole Zygarde thing…
Laliah didn’t really remember her parents, since she mostly grew up with her brother as some sort of a parental figure that cared for her. That led her to be very close to him, but also having difficulties with other people, since she was mostly dependent on her brother. Her brother Laurier didn't have problems being with other kids unlike her. She was quite closed off with other children at the Kalos Summer Camp, causing her to get later picked on. Fortunately, she made a friend in the end after some time.
When Laliah was on her journey starting at 10 years old, instead of a starter, she chose a Mawile that was one of Sycamore’s Pokémon in his sanctuary. Because Laurier became Sycamore’s assistant way before Alain, she would often spend time with the Pokémon in the sanctuary, as for her love for them. There, became really good friends with a Mawile, and Sycamore allowed it, seeing there potential for a powerful bond for Mega-Evolution.
Unfortunately, she would never even cross the thought of Mega evolving Mawile after her brother left and had become a professor who also specifies in Mega-Evolution, and Alain, whom she thought she could trust back at the Kalos Summer Camp, eventually turned in to Team Flare for giving him the Key- and Mega stone.
I’d like to think that at some point she met Aria, who started her journey way later with her Fennekin, during some sort of trouble or a circumstance where she helps/saves them. Laliah would teach Aria stuff like battling for self-defence and overall tips, whereas Aria would tell her about Pokévision, style and performances. Though Laliah had talent in Aria’s eyes, and would have liked to perform together, she ulitimatly declined it despite Aria insisting her, saying she has stage fright when in reality she feels more secure with Pokémon than humans. Though they’re now separated, they’re still good friends and Laliah makes time for herself to look at her performances.
“The Astrellegical Witch’’ is more like Laliah’s alter ego than her performance suit, kinda like Blaziken Mask but she watches over Pokémon and brings them joy as she performs herself in front of the wild Pokémon as her audience (out of Aria's influence, though may be little)
Though she is very tough and strong, she also is still a bit insecure about herself, now because of the others’ accomplishments. She doesn’t like it when she is just known as “Laurier’s sister” for example, which slightly pisses her off. However, she gradually begins to feel less pressured about it. She doesn’t really have a dream or a very important goal, but she is not searching for one. She just wants to have happy moments in her life by living it to the fullest with the people she loves.
I know what she experienced might be also traumatic, but compared to the canon timeline, the canon timeline is just more and worse, trust me…
“No stone can verify my bond with my Pokémon!” - that’s one of her quotes
(Yet she also has no idea that she’s with the man himself who made Mega evolution as a concept… yet)
LAURIER RENARD/RENÉ (AU)
Laliah used to have difficulty pronouncing her brother’s name, so instead she just called him “René” until she got older.
Fun fact, “laurier” in French means laurel, which is related to the bay tree. They are native to the Mediterranean region and originated in ancient Greece, where people would make wreaths for the victors and were also believed to be immune to lightning, but they can grow in other places as well, as long as it gets enough sunlight and won’t get effected by pests or diseases. Portuguese laurels grow in western France, and are also known as the “cherry bay”.
Though his and Laliah’s last name isn’t a tree, but means “fox” in French, and “strong decision” from a Germanic name “Raginhard” too, his full name has a tree in it, so it’s a professor in my books…
Being fascinated with Pokémon and Mega-evolution, Laurier started as one of Professor Sycamore’s assistants before becoming a Pokémon professor himself after years. He branched off, has his own lab, and has started projects of his own across the world to find new mega evolutions (except after Kalos), where he sends and shares his updates and results with Sycamore as well, perhaps for a deeper inspection into this himself, since he still likes to help his old mentor and share the same fields of research. Because of his large successes with his projects, he is quite well known in these regions too, especially in Hoenn and Kanto, but also including Kalos of course. He stays in contact with people he knows via sending them letters, making sure they’re okay while he’s out.
He loves his sister a lot, and hopes she doesn’t feel too pressured by his successes and wants her to be happy and find her own path, and will always accept it no matter what.
Yes, he can mega evolve two Pokémon, so what? May in ORAS trailer mega evolved two Pokémon at the same time TWICE, while Calem also was able to mega evolve his entire team in the manga, so why can’t he then?
I’ll admit, the relationship lore between Laurier and Diantha isn’t as deep as Alain’s and Laliah’s, because Laliah is my main Pokémon OC. Laurier was just really charmed at her beauty and personality ever since he first saw her at the Summer Camp. Later, they would just somehow start building a relationship where he would later send her letters, knowing she must be quite busy with her acting career while he is busy working on his research projects.
“Whether you’ll be young or old… you’ll always be a shining star in my eyes, the shiniest that’s ever been recorded in the history of all that the universe had to offer...” - Laurier’s quote to Diantha before proposing her after the crisis
Also I made Laurier’s sketches and Laliah’s dress more than 2 months ago, so pls forgive me if it looks weird and for not posting anything back then too. I’m currently hyper fixated on Pokémon rn, but my school didn’t, doesn’t, and won’t allow it now, so thanking you for baring this with me :)
Also smth else here with no context:
just don’t even ask, I made this more than 2 months ago as well, and I won’t even finish it since it’s now scrapped…
what a sweet innocent child
so lively, but oh so naive and gullible
It would be such a shame if something bad would happen...
SpyxFamily X Pokémon pt.1
Introducing the trio as Spy X Family bc I can and find it fitting 🫶
Guess who's gonna add (another) OC X canon pair with Alain by making a silly cover without explaining how and why first...
I felt lazy, so I just recolored and stuff instead of drawing the whole thing completely.
One of top 3 Kiri’s Duos (portrayed as a meme) part 2!
A sibling like relationship where the senior or “senpai” tries to be as less violent as he can be, while his junior or “kōhai” tries to talk him out of it to be realistic depending on the situation … (and let’s not forget the crazy maniacs in the background who do whatever they please)
reference (I think)
I've seen a lot of people recreating this meme with random pairs they can think of, and I just find it so funny XD! Although the two I chose come from the same thing, I just think that this meme represents their relationship during certain missions as best.
Random, but… POKÉMOOONN SCRIBBLES!!! (mostly OC featured)
#1 OC introduction: Laliah Renard
Kalosinian. Although not sure which city specifically, but I guess Kiloude City would fit for someone who isn’t really a city girl and spends a lot of time outside.
#2 Mega Gardevoir
I likey like bc it looks so elegant and gorgeous
Aaaanddd….
#3 ???
Don’t think much of it, I just thought of smth and thought it would be cool. Something about a group of researchers discovering a human (as my pkmn OC ofc) with Pokémon features like a new species made my brain go nuts and decided to make a lil’ smth for it. But instead of a whole group of researches I drew only Mairin cuz it’d be easier and probably fitting for a curious and innocent child to find the creepy “monster” itself. I know about N being a possible human pokemon hybrid, but I thought it would be cool for a hybrid to be a human with visible pokemon features as well, so pls gimme sum slack alr (-.-;)y-~~~
Ngl, I don’t like the second one, oh well I tried. Will I ever let it continue though? …. Probably not… I think… I’ll reconsider it after I’ll first flesh out my OC.
Anyways, I have been rewatching and replaying Pokémon again for nostalgia. The good old times where I used to watch XYZ and Sun/Moon back years ago just hits me a lot sometimes…
Me focusing on my current hyperfixation and potentially creating OCs after the old one and before a new one in a never ending cycle:
