Fandom gremlin with too many interests colliding I draw and post stuff about once a month though thatās not guaranteed to be consistent Please do not DM me for commissions as I will not take them!
Iām kegare jade but you can just call me jade for convenience
I mainly draw or talk about my hyperfixations
My interest vary but my current hyperfixations are pokemon, the when they cry series, deltarune, and limbus company
I donāt want my stuff posted anywhere else without my consent
I am not currently accepting commissions so please stop commenting on my posts about it. If you comment asking for commissions your comment will be deleted
Take this with a grain of salt as Iām not fluent in Japanese and just used sites like Google Translate, jisho, and wiktionary to get my results and Iām not confident I did it correctly
Take this as more of a loose translation that gives you an idea of what they are talking about rather than a direct translation that tells you exactly what they are saying
If the original poster doesnāt want me altering their art like this then I will take it down
The funniest thing to me about people using the urbain tag without any capitalization and monikers at the beginning or end is that his name in the English and Indonesian localizations comes from the French word for urban
And since the French version doesnāt have that as his name, we as the English and Indonesian pokemon fan base collectively stole the urbain tag from the French
Ok not actually but looking in the tag has mostly urbain posts with a few posts about French architecture sprinkled in lmao
I posted this already here but I wanted the art to be in a separate post since I put it all the way at the bottom
For context: I made this cause I thought of an alternate scenario where the rival was part of team flare and they get outed during grishamās za royal arc
I have no idea if someone made a post on this yet but turns out urbain isnāt gone forever he just shows up in the wee hours of the morning for some reason
Damn someone beat me to it I had the exact same idea and Iām trying to cook up an outfit for urbain and taunie themed around the eternal flower but art block be art blocking (Ā“ļ¼Ļļ¼`)
Ok so thereās this weird detail that my brain is hung up over
Urbain/taunie never mentions their education meanwhile Naveen via lida spilling his story about how his grandma wanting him to focus on getting good grades is a mention of education while lida mentions having a scholarship
But our rival never mentions their education (unless I missed some dialogue) and with the implication of homelessness via story dialogue I have to wonder
Could they even afford education or were they forced to drop out
God sake this is a pokemon game Iām thinking to hard about this
Ok now that pokemon legends ZA has started to finally marinate in my brain I want to share this weird crack theory (that I ended up turning into an AU) that I came up with about urbain and taunie while I was halfway through the story that was only partially true but was wholly incorrect in the long run xD
Obviously spoilers for main story and post game
So as I was going through the story and finally got grishamās promotional match and when I was going through the story beats of finding out his identity, my brain came up with a weird connection that was kinda bullshit
Urbain/taunie has blonde hair with reddish orange tips
Grisham and griselle also have blonde hair with orange tips
Mable said that there was a younger generation of team flare members
Therefore, the rival was a former team flare member like those two
I am well aware about how stupid this sounds
But the two things that weirdly made me cling to this theory till the very end was that
1. Pokemon has done this before in the manga where the female protagonist for black 2 and white 2, Rosa (named Whitley in the manga) was an ex team plasma grunt so this could have been a possible twist in the games
2. How hellbent they were with helping people around lumiose city
Iām aware that last one is flimsy but the weird loopdeloop theorizing I did was that as an ex team flare member, they simply wanted to do good in the world like grisham and griselle but after team flareās defeat, they sobered up and realized the awful things they did and after being taken in by AZ, felt like they had to atone for their sins or something like that. Heck this wouldāve explained their behavior at the end of the game and why they were so hellbent on trying to win floette over to be the greatest mega evolution user. Because they felt like they had to save lumiose city
Fast forward to post game to realize none of this was true XD and that they werenāt ex team flare but at least I got the twist that they were loosely related to team flare but only via their mother but I donāt really count that as a victory lol
So the lesson I learned today is that Iām an idiot and to not theorize at 1 in the morning
Off topic though this would be a fantastic AU or something. Like can you imagine them having a mizu 5 project sekai moment or something when the player finds out urbain/taunie are ex team flare and they give the player this absolutely horrified expression (heck they literally have a facial expression in game thatās just the mizuki untrained card) and feeling like they canāt go back to team MZ or something like that, that would be brutal
ā¦
Ok so I was originally gonna end it there but only a few seconds after I finished typing I said to myself āwait Iām an artist I can just D R A W I Tā
AND SO I CONCEIVED AN IDEA MOST INGENIOUS
My first art of the ZA characters and I immediately mizu5ed them
I was supposed to make cute chibis of team MZ but the ominous bells tolled and I had to answer
Look I didnāt mean to ominous bell volo. I just got bake no hana/åćć®č± stuck in my head and saw sunflowers in the original music video and everything went black
It doesnāt help that mizu5 is currently ongoing in the global pjsk servers so the timing couldnāt have been worse
Yāall should listen to this song if you havenāt itās good
