Ash & Dawn reunited years later in Galar for the World Grand Contest… with brand-new designs!! ✨️
The first chapter of Echoes of Pearls, my Pokémon World Contest fic, is available here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/59278222/chapters/151175902
I’ll be sharing more illustrations alongside the published chapters over time, so stay tuned and feel free to check back!
no matter where I go… your smile is always there!
My fanfic is really cute, highly reccomend it :3c
What , you like About ash and Dawn .?
What I like about them? Honestly everything :v
Ash and Dawn are my favorite characters of the anime by themselves. Dawn embodies "ray of sunshine that hides how insecure they are behind a smile" trope in the most perfect way and I love her for that. Ash is just the blueprint of "dork with a heart of gold golden retriever" that I also adore. But their relationship makes it all even more interesting.
They are best friends! They support eachother in their dreams and while that's normal for any of Ash's friends, is extra special with Dawn since he trained with her constantly; techniques created by her were often used by him and vice versa. There's no "Ash" or "Dawn" battle style, its "theirs" and that makes me insane! Specially because Dawn is the only character with that honour. Ash would train with other characters later/before her but to the point of adapting her style into his? never again. And it honestly pisses me off sometimes arent his other friends important too?
They have a lot in common! Usually the anime has the very shitty "boys stick with boys, girls stick with girls" mentality (that is the most egregious in SM), where they never allow boys and girls to spend ANY time together, but in DP Arceus blessed the writers for once to let Ash and Dawn actually spend time with one another. They both love pokemon a lot, even the start of their journeys was similar. They have goals that are too big and hard to achieve and they understand how important that is for the other. And they like talking about that to eachother! Every episode, even if it's not focused on them, there's some moment where they talk about something. It's very clear they like eachother's company!
Their chemistry is so cute. There's so many moments where we just see Ash and Dawn talking about random stuff. Having fun! Taunting and provoking and playing with one another! Just to showcase how close they are.
But the most special of it is when they talk about personal stuff, about how often they both feel comfortable being honest about insecurities and struggles to one another. How often they will just talk their issues out instead of fighting or being avoidant about it.
Moments like those are small but scattered all around the anime and ughhh they are so cute.
And I think the biggest diferential to other Ash's relationships is that Ash cares about Dawn. A lot. I'm not saying he doesn't care for other friends, but there was a special care put into the writing of him in DP. Perhaps even to parallel with Chimchar's arc and all. A more caring Ash in general. But like, the way he felt empathetic to all her losses, the way he ran to her when she lost the contest in DP146, the way he knows how she feels even without her saying it. THEIR GOODBYE AND HOW HE SCREAMS HER CATCHPHRASE AT HER TO MAKE HER HAPPY!!
Is just.. he is written much more denser in other seasons and makes it so hard for me to believe Dawn is not his favorite person because of that LMAO
He traded pokemon with her! Ash "i rather die than trade pokemon" Ketchum! And speaking of their pokemon, I love how close they all are. Because they often trained together, there was plenty of moments to have Ash interact with Dawn's pokemon and vice-versa in such a spontaneous way that is lacking for other companions. Dawn is just as invested in Gliscor and Gible's training as Ash; when Mamoswine was disobeying Dawn, Ash (and Brock) were there with it watching her contests and trying to convince it of giving her more credit. Piplup so often tags along with Ash's more out of pocket trainings and is so so cute. Pikachu has an unique pika-name for Dawn!! They are so close that even their pokemon get tangled into their relationship and I love that so so much.
Dawn and Ash are equals. The anime made such an effort to make that very clear! She is not just the girl he traveled with in Sinnoh, she is the girl that he learned a lot from. That he learned the most from. His best friend. His team mate. His partner!
IM ADDING ONTO THIS-
Their relationship (lovers or not) means so much to me because they helped develop each others character. I love them individually but together they are a FORCE to be reckoned with. They’re literally the people you look at and ask “are y’all dating or just best friends” they BALANCE each other so well.
PAGES FROM THE OFFICIAL MANGA BTW. They’re literally best friends
Dawn thought Ash was trying to get back at her for the sludge on his face from her battle but instead he protected her. She then apologized to him for it. I wish I had more panels but it’s not easy finding the official releases online.
You can’t tell me the writers of DP didn’t love their dynamic. Because they poured a whole lot of effort into writing their friendship throughout the seasons and movies.
Wow, awesome ! I thought I was the only one who knew about this manga~
Lovely~
Serena's reunion~
Here we go ! From now on, I'm going to illustrate my fanfic sometimes to take advantage of getting back into drawing..!
If you're curious, the story takes place a few years later after Journey, during the World Grand Contest. You can find the moment in question:
Chapter 7 = Fanfiction.net
Chapter 6 = AO3 Link of the fanfiction: F = https://www.fanfiction.net/s/14396601/2/Pok%C3%A9mon-Echoes-of-Pearls-The-World-Grand-Contest AO3 = https://archiveofourown.org/works/59278222/chapters/151175902
With freezing cold, it's all the more warming to remember the comforting wind of summer~ Thank you for this illustration that is as nostalgic as it is lovely! It would make me want to write a fic of them during the Sinnoh saga, in addition to what I'm already writing currently in my pokemon contest arc I_I It was obvious but I love your style! Keep it up :p
