If you wish to talk business with me, I do readily accept new clients! Fair warning, I do value my time and energy, so my general rate tends to run a little...high. I'm willing to make exceptions, on a case-by-case basis.
Otherwise, I welcome interaction with you all, if even just for the sake of fun. Let us all find something worth smiling about today~.
(OOC below - please read! Last updated March 2nd 2025.)
// Mod's name is Nebula (or Neb)! Adult aged, they/she pronouns. I also run @electroshots, though unlike that one - this acc is a primary! So I'll be doing direct follow backs n' whatnot from here.
I don't accept DMs from minors! If we're going to talk, it'll only be out in the open.
This is a Rotomblr / Pokemon IRL / RP / Ask blog for Valerie!
(info banners at the bottom!)
βShe has her own backstory that's 95% personal headcanons. Other users are welcome to ask her questions and see if she actually gives an answer that's not a half-truth or cryptic! Also, I have her being about 30 years old, though she still looks (and will perpetually look) like an early adult.
βValerie isn't actually a human! She's a changeling, which in this blog's canon is a fae that's able to physically shapeshift. They're a very complex subject, but just know that fae are basically anomalous, magical entities that are neither humans nor pokemon. They do have an innate spiritual connection to Fairy Pokemon, and they don't physically age after reaching adult maturity. NO OTHER USERS should know Valerie is a changeling, unless she tells them personally!
βValerie is really good at drawing and designing and the like, but I'm not tbh, so don't expect me to literally draw up stuff at the drop of a hat. I'll likely be using fair-use images as a crutch, but you're welcome to draw things yourselves for your character if it's intended to be from Valerie!
βI guess I'll squeeze this in here: I'm open to shipping Valerie! Idk how Pkmn IRL collectively handles it, but FOR NOW, I'll run a multiship path (where all relationships are AU & disconnected from each other). Valerie's on the aroace spectrum, so... good luck! Seriously though, don't be afraid to have your (of age) character pursue her if they're interested. You never know what may end up developing!
βThis place will be predominantly SFW! The pkmn franchise as a whole is a E10+ rating at max, and Valerie has no interest in actively pursuing sexual matters. Anything that does arise, including content listed below, will be tagged appropriately.
C/Ws: unreality, macabre themes, references to the afterlife, sparse references to child neglect, abuse, and kidnapping.
Not sure if I need to say this, but: I'm open to my Valerie interacting with other Valeries since the franchise has a canon multiverse!

We do often see very interesting occurrences, like stray berries scattered across grounds where they shouldn't be, in Laverre. Luckily, we've yet to have another missing person's case...
Little occurrences like stray berries from seemingly nowhere? Often enough that it's become a local rule in Laverre to not touch or stand near any objects out of the ordinary.
As for a missing person's case? We haven't had one ever since I moved in years ago.
I need to follow more Rotomblrs. Spice up my dash with some more variety. RB THIS POST IF IT REACHES YOU and i'll send some asks and traction etc your way, investigate your blorbos.

@sinnahsaint saaaaame. That many berries in such good shape, fallen on a path with no berry bush obviously nearby, and at the edge of light and shadow - at best, someone has dropped their berries. At worstβ¦something terrible has happened to someone, just outside the frame.
I find it particularly perturbing that the painting includes what appears to be a wild strawberry plant on the left, with unopened flowers. Strawberries ripen before raspberries (itβs usually generally strawberries in spring, raspberries in summer) , so where did all these out-of-season raspberries even come from!?
// I have a Delphox OC who was one of the pokemon soldiers used in the Kalos war, and she survived the blast from the ultimate weapon - though it made her immortal, so she's lived into modern times. Her muse is Big Angy at seeing AZ just....thriving and owning a hotel, like he isn't half responsible for putting her and her deceased friends through hell LMAO
// Also, that brief scene with the Rotom phone in what seemed to be the "real world" tho... the subtitles read "This is a promotion match announcement", and showed a graphic of the Prism Tower? Not sure what that could be implying.
Is Z-A's story going to be another isekai situation?? Is it relating to something else outside of Z-A entirely, like a new Kalos game or something?? If it's the latter, I will lose my shit.
// Interesting! It looks like Z-A takes places in an alternate timeline, since AZ's in it and he has his Floette π€ (which he didn't get to reunite with until the events of X/Y)....
EDIT: The game could be taking place in the far (?) future post X/Y. Guess we won't know for sure until we get to play it!
I'm still hoping they make AZ's Floette obtainable somehow!!! We've been getting denied for literally over 10 years at this point.
I do wonder if Kalos' new way of thinking in the modern today was driven by the suffering caused in the ancient war. I certainly wouldn't want to live in a battle-torn region...though I am curious as to what the aftermath of the war was like for the people and pokemon who survived.
