Sylvan Forest

A fairy tale-esque forest displaced from the rest of the world via Some Absolute Bullahit

About

Professor Hazel is a professor who has dedicated their studies to the bizarre supernatural phenomena that is Sylvan Forest. They aim to understand why this place behaves as it does, and what effect it's had on the Pokémon who live here. They also hand out Pokémon to the few trainers who reside here. Their main partner Pokémon is a Sylvan Breloom

Yuri is Professor Hazel's assistant. She specializes in ghost and psychic types, and is looking for a way to leave the forest so she and her sister can have a proper Pokémon journey. Her main Pokémon is her starter, Scareech

Yosi is Yuri's little sister. She prefers fairy types over her sister's spooky ghost types.

So! I opened the adoption to discord first and 4/5 of these little guys have already been OOC adopted!

These zorua kits are mixed with eevee genetics! When they evolve into a zoroark, they can gain eeveelution traits. Because of the dark typing they're more inclined to take after umbreon upon evolving! Since their dad is a sylveon, they can potentially gain a fairy typing and sylveon traits. But really they could take after any of the eeveelutions.

If you want the kit below, reach out and let me know! I'll edit this post as quickly as I can once they're unavailable.

Here's the other designs! They're already taken.

[thatfailedpokemontrainer-deacti]

Had an idea but don't want to disrupt anything or upset anyone so-

RB this if you're okay with getting evil team/crime organisations propaganda* in your inbox

*Misleading by nature, attempting to get the person behind the account to join the organisation, often coming off as cult-ish <- the ones I plan on sending is both from an evil team and cult so please keep this in mind, I do not want to trigger anyone.

Something's changing, various folks within the village are starting to develop various powers and mutations. Seems related to what Pokémon they spend the most time with. Further research and observation is required

Hello there :3

👻I'm Yuri, I like ghost and psychic types. I'm also the professor's assistant :3 I have a Misdreavus but she's not my starter, Scareech is--that's a Sylvan Pokémon, the final evolution of Hoont. I've also got a Banette, an Abra, an Eevee, and a Gengar!

🧚‍♀️You can call me Yosi! I like fairy types! My starter is a Sylvan Pokémon called Bunnilope, which is super cute! I also have an Eevee and an Impidimp!

OOC: I'm giving the sister from @prof-hazel their own blog. They are still stuck in mysterious Sylvan Forest and staying with Professor Hazel, Fakémon will be a part of this (as shown in this intro). I am an adult, the girls are not. Pelipper mail/unmail/malice and Musharna mail are on

[prof-hazel]

Here it is

[prof-hazel]

I'm keeping this blog up and may even reblog the occasional thing if I think Hazel would, but I've found that I enjoy running just a regular pokemon irl blog over a pokemon professor blog. This blog was half the sisters' anyways. I'll be moving the sisters over to their own blog, AJ may get his own too I'm not sure. I'll reblog the sisters' intro post as soon as it's done

So I don't really have as much of a problem with the League as a lot of people do (and we're not going to get into that because this isn't about politics) but it does annoy me that most people think the League is the only career path for a trainer. You either take it on or become a gym trainer, nothing else. So, I'm here to give you a list of jobs where knowing how to Pokémon Battle is a useful skill. For when you wanna battle but you don't wanna participate in the League or independent tournaments.

Pokemon Researcher/Research Assistant: For certain fields of study, such as the study of Pokemon moves, knowing how to Pokémon battle is a really useful skill. Sure you could get some trainer off the street and pay them 7000 Poke or sit in on a League match but being able to battle yourself in a controlled environment is a lot more convenient.

Battle Restaurant Server: Spice up what's usually a soul crushing job with a little bit of battling. Battle Restaurants are like regular restaurants but the servers and patrons have Pokemon Battles between meals. You don't even have to be that good at battling to get hired and the pay's pretty good.

Any Sort of Explorer: If you want to explore the wilderness or dive into the depths of caves, you need to know how to Pokémon Battle. Sometimes you just can't avoid wild Pokémon attacks and your only choice is to battle them or run. And I don't care how fast you are, you aren't outrunning an angry Mightyena.

Security Guard: Do I have to explain this one?

Actor or Stunt Double: The movie may be fake but the battling's real. Filming goes a lot smoother when you know how to properly give commands to Pokémon.

Battle Subway Depot Agent: This one's a Unova specific thing but if you're a really good battler you could become a Depot Agent on the Battle Subway, testing the might of trainers to see if they're worthy of taking on the Subway Bosses (Subway Boss? I can never remember if there's one or two).

[trainer-alyx]

Plenty of Pokémon centers also usually need a few experienced battle trainers for more serious injuries or unconventional ones.

If you know what you're doing with making Berry based salves they'll take you too!

muse mixup madness

(because if the sillies are going to happen, someone needs to propose the idea)

the pokémon irl community's been a bigger thing for more than a year now, and i think it's time we got some fun community events going on that are easy grab-and-go, without needing to depend on anyone else's lore or story. something you can put as much or as little prep work into as you want, and that there's no pressure to participate in if it doesn't strike your fancy.

so! muse mixup madness! a week before the start of each new month, i'll post a couple prompts for the event. then, on the first of the month, everyone who's participating in that muse mixup madness plays an alternate muse based on one prompt or another, or a mixture of both (or if there's more than two, any number). when people are done, or at the end of the day, everything goes back to normal.

notes: participating once doesn't mean you have to participate again, and participating on one blog doesn't mean you have to do it everywhere. some prompts might require coordination with other muns, but there'll always be at least one that you can do alone. these events can be incorporated into the story of your blog however you want, or not at all.

anyway for now this is an interest check! i'll drop the first prompts near the end of january (and if anyone has anything they'd be interested in seeing, feel free to drop it into my inbox)

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!

[realpokemon]

to get festive for christmas eve, the Christmas Eevee is being released onto the public to wreak as much havoc as possible on every ornament it can find before it evolves at midnight into a Decorateon

[poke-entomology]

YEAH GIRL CHEW THAT TINSEL!!!

[prof-hazel]

Is that what happened last year?

how does b-cancelling work actually?

B-Cancelling, named after one of the buttons on the original HANDY-505 model Oak Pokedex, is still not entirely understood.

By our current known accounts, it was discovered by accident by Professor Samuel Oak as he was building his prototype Pokedex. The combination of sensors and measurement tools in the Pokedex would, in specific circumstances, interfere with each other to emit a specific electromagnetic frequency. Said frequency, through sheer coincidence, was remarkably similar to the wave emitted by the Everstone, and has a similar property of inhibiting evolution.

Professor Oak realized soon what he had discovered, and quickly created a function to induce this frequency intentionally, which Pokedex holders could use to inhibit the evolution of Pokemon to further study forms prior to evolution... or simply to stop evolution until it is more convenient.

Now, all Pokedex models come with the ability to emit the same frequency. Even when it no longer uses the B key, it is still known as B-Cancelling due to its origin.

Scientists, historians and Pokemon experts in the Simru region have finally finished their study of Bronzor and Bronzawdd, and are ready to present their explanation of the Ancient Type!

Faketober is next month!

Faketober is a monthly drawing challenge, similar to other challenges such as Smaugust, Inktober or Huevember. Every day you get a new drawing prompt, and you create something based on the prompt that also fits the theme of the challenge.

Faketober's theme is centred around creating Fakemon- so I made a custom list that anyone in the Fakemon community can use! I'm uploading it now so people can plan out what they want to make ahead of time.

Keep in mind there's are no strict rules you have to follow. You don't have to draw every single day- you don't even need to stick to drawings if you want. You could make sprites! Or little clay sculptures! Create stats for a Fakemon!

It's all up to you! :D

[touhouweed]

Gengar's pokedex entries are all about how fucked up Gengar is and how much its gonna kill you to death

[touhouweed]

I adore these taga6
