My name is Florence (She/they) and I'm a former breeder from Galar. I'm no longer a breeder due to a traumatic experience involving a shiny farm and I'm a strong advocate for pokemon rights.
Nowadays you can find me working at the Rose of the Rondelands as the head of the pokemon care and accommodations department.
My partner pokemon is a minccino named Skittles. He's great at keeping rooms clean but he tends to overwork himself.
Pokemon battling has never really been my thing, so I don't really follow the league, but I'm really into foods from different regions. (Curry from here in Galar is what I'm best at making, but I love talking about food from any region.)
My ask box is open, so feel free to ask me anything!
[OOC: My main blog is @fantastictrashpolice! I mainly do writing stuff on there!]
Sorry for not posting in a while! My brother had gallbladder surgery and after that I... Just sort of forgot about this blog....
I'm back now though, so I'll give some quick updates. Rowan the Sylveon is adjusting well to life with my mum. My mum's been getting into knitting and Rowan likes to sit at her feet when she knits.
Oh! I almost forgot! Skittles evolved into a cinccino!!
i look fucking fabulous btw. the height of grace and refinement. as nimble and delicate as-
Um, Skittles? You literally sneezed so hard yesterday that you fell on your bum. I'm not saying you don't look great, I'm just saying you could use to work on your dexterity...
hush. i shall not tolerate these foul lies. i must away!
He... Uh, he just jumped into a wall... Should I get his vision checked? I know that pokemon's biology can change when they evolve and they need time to adjust, but I'm a bit worried because it's been a while since he evolved, but he's still struggling physically...
//I've been largely inactive in the Pokemon IRL community for a while now, so I've decided to get a fresh start. I may come back to this blog eventually, but for now, I want a change of pace. Stay tuned for posts from my new blog @poketeamcyclone!
// @aceoflilies I mentioned making a new blog a while back and even though it's a little bit later than I anticipated, here it is!
Hey everybody! I'm sorry for the long hiatus, but- well, do you want the truth or do you want an exaggeration?
The exaggeration is that I was swept away on a journey through time and space- the truth is that I got distracted binge-watching Professor Who.
I'm honestly a bit hesitant to watch the next season, though. It's great that they got back that one writer, but... I don't know, it almost feels like they're relying too much on viewers' nostalgia by bringing back David Trevenant.
//OOC: The real reason I was gone so long was that I was hyper-fixating on FNAF. Soooo, this post is one of those inspired by a true story things. I'm going to try and be more active on here though!
Bro Im not even sure Flare (mun) is an adult, but another rper who is a minor has stated this makes them extremely uncomfortable to see. Cut it out. These aren't your blorbos, they're peoples ocs.
Ooooh! I didn't actually know a lot about those games, so researching them was fun!
I'm taking most of my inspiration from PMD: Explorers of Sky.
Florence wakes up as an applin. She doesn't have an apple at first and almost gets eaten by a corviknight. Skittles (who Florence doesn't know in this AU) steps in and scolds the corviknight, keeping it from eating Florence.
Afterward, Skittles says he'll get Florence an apple, but he comes back with a lemon. Skittles thinks it's hilarious- Florence does not. (Don't worry, Skittles does get Florence an apple eventually.)
Skittles is a member of the Wigglytuff Guild in this AU. He has no interest in tutoring a new guild member but when a clerical error states that Skittles has to be Florence's mentor, he's too stubborn to abandon his supposed pupil. If you ask anyone else though, they'll tell you that Florence is Skittles' mentor- because no matter what dimension, Florence will always be like a mom to Skittles.
Pretty early in the story, it would be revealed that Florence is a human-turned-pokemon- but it would also be revealed that Florence was transported to the PMD universe just after the death of her partner pokemon, Winnie (her partner before Skittles in the main timeline). That's why she's never met Skittles, though no one would know this because Skittles hasn't met Florence either in this AU. This would be an emotional reveal that would explain some of the differences in her behavior from the main timeline. The main plot would probably take a backseat for an arc or two so that Florence's grief could be dealt with better. Then, for a while, things would seem to get better.
A few episodes/chapters/installments later (just long enough for Florence's grief to become mainly under control), Florence and her friends would face the final boss. They would appear to win at first but once the boss caught their second wind, it looks like Skittles died (he would actually be teleported/thrown/otherwise displaced to somewhere Florence and co. didn't know about) and they would be forced to retreat. Florence would be devastated by the loss of another friend and she would come close to pushing away everyone else. However, another member of their team would approach her and discuss their own experiences with losing someone, which would lead to them asking Florence an open-ended (but very obvious) question like "Is this what Skittles would have wanted?" This would prompt Florence and their friends to charge back at the final boss to honor Skittles' memory, and inadvertently discover that Skittles was alive.
There would probably be a side plot about Skittles somewhere in there, and he'd probably rescue himself and reunite with his friends during the final battle.
But, wow, that was a lot more fleshed out than I intended it to be!
