Who's Wearing the Crown?

@tokiwagym

This seemed too perfect. A cave behind the waterfall? Sure it was possible, but it felt so cliche in some ways. Not that Karen could complain too much. Besides she wouldn't be in Johto much longer, at least that was the plan. All she needed was a place to stay for a few more nights till she could get that fake passport in. After that getting to another region would be easy. Especially with interpol focused on the madness the attempted revival of Rocket had caused. Fools, there was only w ways Rocket would return. Either Giovanni stepped back into the picture, and with a good story for what he's been up to. Or the second option which Archer sadly didn't seem to have the balls to do, ditch him completely to have a true reincarnation. A shame neither seems like options.

That wasn't her business though, not anymore. Not since a year ago when her branch of Rocket finally fell, and Will...... No! Karen shook her head as she held her long jacket closer to her body refusing to think about that. She'd find him, just once things calmed down. Following her flapping murrow along the cliff face Karen refocused on the task, finding a place to stay for the night. With the sounds of crashing water becoming louder in her ears as she refocused on her surroundings. A bit further, she told herself seeing the ledge with the cave opening. Her murrow was flapping above the entrance waiting his own wings silent compared to the flow of water.

After a few more cautious steps Karen hopped her way to the final ledge. She hadn't looked in yet instead taking a moment to take a breath, and remove the mask from her face. The sharply angled smile the image most knew her by if they knew of her at all.

"Good boy Trouble, good bird."

She cooed as the pokemkn landed on her shoulder. As her hand lifted to give him reward scratches under the chin her eyes caught something. Or someone a s they moved. Though they were using the darkness to conceal themselves they likely didn't know they were dealing with a dark type trainer who could make out an outline from where she stood.

Heh, time to do a reverse ambush. She thought keeping her expression the same as she stepped inside making sure to keep track of the stranger.

Twist!verse vs Main!verse in a fight

Main would win, hands down, every fight.

Twist is Karen who's had to live on scraps and survive for years alone in the woods occasionally living comfortably and sometimes struggling. So she's going to be for one malnourished because she prioritizes her pokemon eating, and she simply could no keepbup with the advantages main has.

Bulbepedia puts her as a former Rocket Admin, so that's base line fighting ability.

Main however has that, food, shelter, and isn't alone. She regularly would be training with a full fledged psychic, a ninja, a man who's built like a mountain that wrestles onix for fun, and a champion who trains dragons while kicking Rocket ass on the side.

Not ro mention Karen's pokemon fight against the strongest trainers so they're stacked too.

So main karen has time, energy, and people to help her hone her skills to be cracked in a fight.

Twist, will never be as strong as main.

Between Land and Sea

starter for: @hikaruotanashi

It seemed the information was spot on, which tracked considering how nit picky the Magma boss came across. Every pen on his desk set in a straight line, and every article of clothing sat stiffly. There was a man that needed to cut loose. However she got her mission from him which was what she needed to focus on. That, and she did have poison currently shooting through her leg. Getting a tentacool upset enough to poison her was easy, and by now the pokemon had left.

The plan was simple, and in motion already. By now her murkrow should of grabbed the man’s attention as if he was the first person her pokemon came across, and start bringing him over where he’d see an injured Karen, and hopefully try to help. From there Karen could use some flattery to soften him before swinging into aqua talk offering her own skills since he did ‘save her life’. Step one of what she could hope would be more plans. 

Her houndoom nudged her shoulder affectionately to draw her out of thought. The pokemon wanting her to take the hidden pecha berry in the dog’s mouth, but knew she wouldn’t unless absolutely needed. Anything for the plan. 

Meanwhile the murkrow had found the target. Bouncing on the sand with sqwauks and flaps he was doing everything to imply a sense of urgency. His beak grabbing the end of the man’s clothing trying to drag him towards where his human to urge him to hurry.

"Damn, and I'm doing all of this for my closest friend. Can you imagine the madness I'd tangle myself in if I actually fell in love with someone?"

-Twist!Karen at some point, probably after fulfilling a particularly brutal job

Terms of Endearment and Karen

Those little nicknames people give such as darling, sweet heart, hun, honey, cutie, and all others Karen's been called before. Usually in a mocking tone, or in her you get days by some target she was toying with, and generally they are terms she simply rolls her eyes at and debates on if she wants to lay into whomever is saying it.

The one that immediately sets her off though is

'Pet'

She HATES it. Just utterly hates it as it strikes a cord of inferiority and entrapment which is how she felt around Pryce. Calling her pet is usually an immediate punch, or worse, to the face if she's already expressed once her disdain for it.

This applies to Twist too, and is one of main and twist's similarities.

Call her a bitch if you want, but use pet at your own risk.

twist

“Uh........where did all of this Rocket come from.....I thought they disbanded.”

Twist Karen came back to Kanjoh for her research and to run from her latest crime streak only to find chaos at home.

Twist verse?

Imma have more twist verse on here with all of the criminal activity going on, join in on the fun maybe.

Basically Karen didn’t get the elite 4 arc and is running from the cops committing crimes to survive until she can find Will who disappeared. She’ll even sell out Ho-oh if she has to.

Main karen: "Would you like character growth?"

Twist Karen: "Would you like character regression or for your evil bean to stay evil?"
