[ indie | selective | blogstyle lance from pokemon | written by skylar ]

[dragonmastered]

Greetings, my name is Lance. To be frank, I have no idea how this website functions, but I was invited by a friend of mine. That being said, I do hope we all get along.

Welp, it's Skylar again and I caved to the urge to make a blog for this nerd. You've probably seen me around here, here, or here; I have a bad habit of making new blogs whenever I get bored or distracted, and this happens to be both. Now, I'm familiar with the games, the anime, and the manga to varying degrees, so I'm kind of going to be running my own homebrew version of this nerd; I'm thinking of going with a specific AU I crafted, and if I do I'll update this page accordingly.

I, the mun, am a 31 year old, trans, autistic, and very awkward man who struggles with social environments and talking to people. If you're ableist or transphobic, you are not welcome here.

Metagaming and the other typical Tumblr do-nots apply here; I won't ramble on about rules that people cover strenously in the RPC, but I will mention that if I say or do something dumb I welcome constructive feedback and do not welcome cruelty.

Lance does some questionable things in the games and, if I recall correctly, the manga - he literally has his Dragonite blast a guy in the Rocket Hideout in Gold/Silver, so keep in mind, he's not a great guy. I think there's also a whole plot where he tried to end the human race because they're awful, which is kind of based and pretty terrible. I do not endorse this behavior, but he might. He can also kind of be an arrogant prick, and I'm tempted to include details from Rocket Edition, which makes him even worse.

This is a blogstyle blog, meaning the muse will, for the most part, be running it; I will clearly mark out of character posts and likely delete them after a while. However, I solely use messaging for out of character discussion, please do not message me in-character unless we discuss it and/or have a need for the characters to have a private chat. I do have a discord, but I won't hand that out to just anyone.

I'm open to most any fandoms, so long as everyone's respectful; I don't softblock people, but I do understand if someone else does and try to respect that as well.

Small personal side note: this is one of the rare new muses I've picked up in the last few years, so I'm going to be extraordinarily awkward initially, please be patient with me.

That should be all for now, see y'all on the dash!

[[ one other thing i have in mind is transmasc lance. and hear me out, pokespe outright says that girls from viridian forest get the telepathic abilities, it says nothing about guys. so transmasc icon lance whose main dragonite kind of reflects his journey by going from the fairly feminine dratini line to enby dragonite? that's peak. you can judge this salty, arrogant dragon man all you like but that's a concept i'm considering heavily ]]

[coolskeletonsdontcry]

Oh, that's awful?? Poor things. No, I don't care if Arrow doesn't battle ever if he doesn't want to, he's my little cuddle buddy. My chores buddy, too, he likes to ride on my head when I'm cleaning, nyeh heh heh.

Oh my god?? Poor Agatha...

[dragonmastered]

It is. To be honest, I'm getting rather tired of arrogant trainers who think that just because they have a dragon-type means they have the right to act out however they want. Good to see you're not one of them.

I wasn't really fond of the woman, but she didn't deserve that. Unfortunately for us, it happened in the one room we don't have cameras in, so we can't prove anything. The only witnesses were Red and one of those damn Rockets.

[coolskeletonsdontcry]

And here I was all ready to knit him a little beanbag Dreepy toy, nyeh heh heh! But thank you, that does make me feel better.

Exile and legal cases? Oh there's more going on here than I know about, I see. In my defense, I literally live under a rock nyeh heh heh

[dragonmastered]

Don't worry about it, you seem like the kind of person who's going to treat him with care, that's worth supporting if you ask me. Most people who get their hands on a dragon-type tend to focus purely on how strong they are and neglect them as a result.

Yes, it's a bit complicated. Turned out the old man was involved in some heinous experiments. He broke his ban on battling and got himself booted from Kanto as a result, but we couldn't pin down any more serious accusations. As far as the public is concerned, Samuel Oak is still the kindly man he presents himself as, but we're fairly certain he killed Agatha.

[coolskeletonsdontcry]

Nyeh heh, fair! I do worry about Arrow, though. I don't live in a place with a lot of Dreepy... or. Any, so I'm not sure what will happen when he evolves. Drakloak and Dragapult always have Dreepy with them. But I've got plenty of time to come up with ideas on how to help him out, at least. He's still young, and I don't battle hardly at all, so that evolution is a long time off.

Well! From what I understand they sure were a special couple of kids, nyeh heh heh!

[dragonmastered]

If you want my frank opinon? He should be fine. I've seen Diglett and Magnemite evolve in places that don't really make a lot of sense, it's very strange when you start to wonder where those other Pokemon come from. I'm sure if Oak were still here he'd have a coherent explanation for it, but as it stands he got exiled a while back so he's unlikely to show his face in Kanto for a while. Still, if you're concerned I could ask one of my contacts if it's all right for you to visit when he's ready.

Special is one way of putting it. Blue's arrogant and a bit full of himself, but considering where he came from I'm not surprised, and Red. Well. I shouldn't talk about that, it's a legal case involving a minor.

[dragonmastered]

The only solace I have is the fact that Giovanni apparently also got his ass kicked by those two, and the fact that Blue's actually a decent guy. His friend Red, though ... that one's strange.

[dragonmastered]

[[ tldr i think i'm going to write rocket edition lance, who is a little different from canon but shows a lot more personality than the basegame, and the fangame has some really fascinating additions to the lore that i want to incorporate ]]

[coolskeletonsdontcry]

Nyeh heh, oh yeah I can see that being a lot to manage.

Well, yeah! You're a celebrity! Plus, I did say I have a Dreepy, and who out there raising a dragon type without knowing about one of the most powerful dragon tamers? Arrow is pretty shy, though. A gentle little guy.

[dragonmastered]

Dragons can be just as temperamental, though I must say, they don't start as overwhelmingly powerful as some people might think. Dratini tend to be very gentle, which continues into their fully evolved form if you treat them well. The fact that a Dragonite can flatten a building isn't relevant unless the trainer wants them to. From what I understand of Dreepy, they're rather the same way, though I haven't raised one myself yet.

As for being a celebrity, yes, that's true. That reputation did take a bit of a beating when two kids defeated me some years back, though. Blue is currently the Champion, and I have no idea where Red went.

[coolskeletonsdontcry]

From what I know about Gyarados, I think he's always going to have a bit of a temper, nyeh heh!

Nice to meet you, Lance! Wait. Champion Lance??

[dragonmastered]

That is unfortunately very true. Between him and Aerodactyl I have some issues keeping them from causing trouble. Either they want to fight one another - not ideal - or pick a fight with someone else.

Former Champion Lance, but yes. I take it you've heard of me?

[coolskeletonsdontcry]

I do! And a Dreepy, and an Amaura. Glaive is the youngest! And yeah, nyeh heh, she sure can be sassy. Less than an hour old and she was already biting me. That took some training to get her to calm down with the teeth, nyeh heh!

I'd appreciate the help! And also, hello! I'm Comet!

[dragonmastered]

Reminds me of a certain someone who gets sassy when he isn't fed on time ... even with the training, my Gyarados still has a temper. As for what he considers to be 'on time', that's whenever he's decided I'm taking too long to feed him. Or whenever he wants more food. Or whenever someone else gets fed and he decides it's an injustice.

The name's Lance, it's nice to meet you. I'll see what I can find out, it might just be a temperament thing, or it might be insecurity. Some Pokemon demand attention by causing trouble on purpose.

[dragonmastered]

Hm.

There's a tagging system with Dragonite, this might not be so bad after all.

[coolskeletonsdontcry]

Hm.

Glaive is getting into the habit of trying to steal and hide things. I don't know if this is just a her thing, or if it's because she's a dark type. I don't remember hearing much about Houndour getting into stealing things.

[dragonmastered]

Oh, you have a Houndour? From what I've been told, they do tend to be a bit temperamental. Though, stealing things is a bit new, I'll admit, and they're not exactly my area of expertise. Lumis has a Houndoom, I could ask him.

[dragonmastered]

Why am I getting a mature content warning for a skeleton's blog?

[dragonmastered]

This thing is very in your face about all its functions and features, isn't it?
