Just throw Ruhan at your twisted kratts, and now Y'all are babysitting
He likes chocolate chip cookies, bats, and birds, and Monie will beat,punch,kick, Goko step anyone If he's harmed in any way
Y'all have him till the end of the night while Martin and Monie got on a date
What have you done, letting them babysit, i will list out what each would do
Mateo would very much try to win the kids' favor; he may or may not teach the kids how to throw stuff like knives. probably gives Ruhan a knife too.
Charles, probably the most reluctant to do this, it'd kind of be like the Sonic fandom's interpretation of Shadow and Cream's friendship, like Mateo may teach the kid how to punch someone in the kidneys
Abigal, mostly puts him in some testing ball meant to contain stuff; somehow, Ruhan probably won't get hurt. Despite everything going wrong, she will give him a lab coat.
Kita, a teenage girl babysitting core, puts Ruhan in the main area and is probably busy on something else, one eye on Ruhan, though, will teach him how to actually sneak away without being caught
Jackson, the normal babysitter of the bunch, though, probably will teach Ruhan gun safety tips, and also probably build model planes with the brat.
All in all, they all will say "This was a bad idea, never let us do that again" to Martin and Monie when they come to pick him up.
Would it be fun to make up stuff about the Twisted trainers and their counterparts? Yes, it would.
Martin and Chris are Pokémon Rangers when the league is not in season. Aviva, Koki, and Jimmy (before he revealed he was champion of a region lacking well, everything) joined them. They tend to help Pokémon and get them to safe places so they can recover and then release them into the wild again, and also deal with poachers, due to now being gym leaders and also having a bit more backing. When they are doing their jobs as gym leaders, they have people still doing the good work around the world. (The Villains were forced to stop if they wanted to keep their seats as E4's)
Deep Terror (Mateo's Sharpedo if you forgot) is insanely clingy to Mateo to the point he will pop out of his pokeball to try to bite anyone he's talking to if they talk to Mateo for to long (5 minutes), and also Deep terror has insane beef with Chris for seemingly no reason other then he doesn't like Chris the most, which means unlike everyone else where it's warning bites or bites on the leg or arm, Deep terror goes for Chris's face immeditely. Chris and Mateo are banned from fighting each other, especially if Mateo has Deep Terror (which is always), cuz that shark will aim for Chris instead of the other Pokémon Mateo tells him to attack.
Jackson's Garchomp likes to bother Jimmy by purposely rubbing its cheek on Jimmy, and shark skin does not feel good; Jimmy can say that being the victim of this multiple times. Speaking of Jimmy, why did I make him a dragon-type user despite his personality? I think it's funny he uses the most fierce type and isn't afraid of them, but screams when he sees a ratata, and he uses more "soft" ones, except his salamence, though that one will throw a full-body tantrum if it doesn't get pets after a battle.
Kita's Gengar tends to hide Koki's tools, and Koki's Lycanroc (dawn) tends to sniff out anything Kita stashes away. There is technically an ongoing sibling war over who can annoy whom with their Pokémon more.
Zane's Mimikyu likes to bully Zach's Pikachu, not out of hate, but because it's copying her trainer for the fun of it. All the ghost types of everyone's teams tend to gather and have a tea party somewhere no one knows where, but it's somewhere.
During "Crowning" Ceremonies, to announce who is the current champion and all that, the gym leaders wore very fancy knight outfits, while the Elite 4 wear suits or dresses for their titles, and the Duke of the previous champion crowns the current one for that season.
Now here's where I detail out stuff about my Pokémon AU, mostly the gym league, E4, and Champions
We'll work backwards, starting with the championship, to the gym leaders. under the cut really
Championship
Let's start with what trainers would have to go through if they make it this far.
We have the princes Jackson and Jimmy, they trade off who is champion by having a battle, both dragon-type trainers (with different perspectives on dragons and which ones they use), they are called princes due to how the region they're champions in works, having a hierarchy-like system. Below them are
Elite 4
The Dukes, Zach (Electric/Steel type trainer, has a Pikachu) for when Jimmy is in charge, along with Donita, Gaston, Paisley, while Zane is the one who is on when Jackson is in charge, Zach's biggest fan and person who heckles Zach a lot.
The marquiss, Donita (Psychic/Fairy, Gardivor haver Donita anyone, she also has a furfor), and Diana fashion and circus, what a combo, but they are 3rd in the roster for a reason.
The Counts, Gaston (Normal/Fighting, lets be honest, Stoutland) and Gaspard, both are strong themselves but couldn't get to the seats after them.
The Baronesses, Paisley (Rock/Water, Corsala and Cursola) and Patricia, little ladies with a lot of wrecking power behind them, one might be a bit more manic about it but eh.
And now we move onto the ones the trainers have to face to even try to get to these mofos
Gym Leaders
Tortuga crew and Devil stream crew, switch off who is the first off and who's the latter half trainers face, they are referred to as Dames or Sir of their respective Cities like Knights, but the order is
Kita and Koki, as the 1st and 5th gyms, Koki has her own team for things outside of league battles, but her gym team consists of Ground and Rock types (Mudsdale is her favorite). They both ease and test trainers with how they fight for their respective halves.
Aviva and Abigal, Aviva again, like Koki, have their own team for outside tasks; the league team comprises Psychic and Electric types; she has Espeon and Jolteon (menaces), and an Alakazam. They are the 2nd and 6th gym, more of a challenge than Koki and Kita would be, but still not the top.
Chris and Charles, Chris uses Bug and Grass types. The 3rd and 7th gym, very much what you call opposites of the spectrum, chill and strong vs intense and strong, if you're not careful, could end up getting swept. Most people sometimes give up at their gyms, well, most give up after Charles's, cuz of how he is, others retry Chris's more often.
And finally Martin (Water/Flying) and Mateo as the 4th and 8th gym, they don't get many challengers due to where they at, but when they do, excitement for it, ya,y others do not get by them easily though, but also because their cities are at the costal opposite ends and both sides have sea passage to the victory road.
Uh, that's basically it for me, on this, so like go crazy, oh wait, there is one more thing
EX-King Adam, the champion before Jimmy beat him, took the loss as an excuse to basically go legendary hunting, and with his leaving, so did all the league that he recruited over the years, so his E4 and gym leaders he got left to do their own thing, so Jimmy was left with a region with a big hole in the league department.
heyyy idk if this has been asked before but Do the twisted like Halloween? :D
In this order, I can say that
Mateo, Abigal, Zane, Patricia, and kind of Diana love the holiday. For their own reasons, Mateo gets to dress up as a vampire (every year it's some variant of vampire x other thing) to get an excuse to bite people. Abigal studies fear responses with as much care as you think, dresses up as a witch each year even has the witch cackle down. Zane likes dressing up and scaring Zach, and may or may not have set loose a doll that looks haunted loose onto the city each year. Patricia, the Halloween theme park conversion, and she just likes giving out candy. Diana likes most holidays cuz she tries to outdo herself the last time she does a thing on it.
Jackson, Kita, Ray, and Daniel are like neutral, nothing really there for them; they might go out or be pulled to do stuff depending on who they're with at the moment.
Charles and Adam just don't care for it; really, it's just like any other day for them. They probably stay in and don't do anything.
Gaspard is a no, surprisingly, he made one mistake thinking he caught something one time in like a small town, and he was charged with kidnapping, and so he forever despises the holiday for messing up stuff.
What would each of their dynamics be with each other? Which ones would be closer, or more distant? Which ones are more affectionate, more love-hate, or pure hate? I NEED TO KNOOOOW (when u have time lol, no pressure)
Okay, I have not really shared the dynamics, but if I had to give general ones for respective groups, I can and will, hold on a bit, this is a long one, so it's being put in a cut
Ahem, let's start with the Devil stream crew. At first, they kind of didn't like each other; heck, even Mateo and Charles were getting sick of each other. Then, you know, time and incidents brought them all closer, into some weird, dysfunctional love-hate found family.
Interpersonal ones are as goes
Mateo and Charles, thick as thieves
Mateo sometimes forgets Kita's there, but likes her company sometimes.
Mateo and Abigal have this weird experimenter and Experimentee relationship, which can be read as any version of this
Mateo and Jackson get along due to their interest in deadly weaponry. I would say they sometimes engage in bromance, and it is usually one-sided.
Mateo is the most affectionate, even if his hugs (depending on AU) come with denticles chaffing you, and you worry about being bitten by him.
Charles is the least affectionate, and it took him so long to even start warming up to the rest of the crew. Again, Charles is a misanthrop; the only exceptions are family, so he doesn't auto-hate Martin, Mateo, or Chris (Stephen and Tobias are included too).
Kita likes teasing everyone about stuff she just walked in on them doing, like how Charles will play with yarn balls when he thinks he's alone.
In terms of how they all feel about the Twisted Villains
Charles hates them all, unsurprisingly, though he doesn't hate Patricia much since her change.
Mateo has tension, idk, and he doesn't know either, with Diana
Abigal doesn't care for them, but is still friends with Zane. who try to one-up and outsmart each other in deadly games.
Kita knows a lot about them, but doesn't leak any of it for personal reasons.
Jackson doesn't care for them; none can break in easily if they tried, and he likes seeing them try sometimes.
Now the Twisted Villains
As a group, they all share a healthy fear of Zane for various reasons. However, they all worked together rather well because they actually liked and respected the man organizing them.
Zane will admit he's not really close to any of the others, not the most affectionate type outside of Zach, actually; he outright hates Gaspard and is not subtle about it either. He and Patricia still go on weird rants together about stuff for fun.
Diana, again, is not affectionate, nor is she close to anyone else, but respects Zane, though, and they do business together since the whole deal with the Twisted Villains looks softer and non-threatening despite everything. isn't chopped up about Patricia turning over a new leaf.
Gaspard thinks he's liked; he is not. He was the most hurt by Patricia leaving the group, but changed his mind fast when she said she wanted to also one day catch mothman with him still. thinks he and Zane are friends.
On Adam, I think I said enough about him, really.
If the twisteds were gods what would they be in charge of?
as a pantheon, chaos-based due to well how volatile most would be.
But as individuals
Abigal, Goddess of madness and science
Kita, Goddess of secrets and deception
Jackson, God of flight and paranoia
Mateo, God of war and insanity
Charles, God of death and wrath
Zane, God of emotions and fabric
Diana, Goddess of control and strength
Patricia, Goddess of jubilation and mania
Gaspard, God of hunting and hunger
Ray and Daniel would be blessed warriors of their respective goddesses.
Adam would probably be a god who decided to stop being a god, aka he would have put these nut jobs in charge of the chaos side of stuff. Awan and Abel would be demi-gods who just watch the other gods do whatever for the fun of it.
What do you think each twisteds favorite animal or hobby if they dont have one would be
Well, Mateo and Charles are obvious about what their favorite animal is, but their hobbies. Mateo likes collecting knives, and Charles likes to hike by himself at night.
Kita prefers lizards; her favorites are thorny dragons, which she calls "Charles but scaly instead of furry" due to the spikes. Hobbies are basically what she does normally
Abigal, hobbies are science and watching things explode. She likes crows, shocker, I know.
Jackson's favorite animal would be most birds of prey, but he does have a favorite within the eagle species. Hobbies include model plane building when he has time.
Zane likes spiders, has "Lost" a spider in Zach's room once, favorite hobby is sewing or playing outside.
Diana likes lions, the majesty, and also taming them in her circus. She doesn't have a hobby, which makes her lose focus on her work.
Gaspard, his hobby is his work, and his favorite animal would probably be Nessy (also imagine au where cyrptids exist and the wild and twisted kratts are dealing with that)
Patricia, like Gaspard, her hobby was her work, but post-redemption, she likes butterflies for how colorful they are; her hobby is bug catching, but she releases them afterwards.
Daniel also likes lions, his hobby is working out.
Ray likes turtles; no hobbies
