(Hey y’all! Welcome to my account :3. I’m Emerald, a novice doodler and semi-professional Zangoose just making art of Pokemon in funky situations. As per my bio, I will post NSFW from time to time, so be warned. Other than that, hope you have a great day! :3)

Rehearsal

(Hey y’all! I really should draw more of my other OC’s, so here’s Teddi! I genuinely have a lot of characters in the back of my brain just waiting to be sketched, so hopefully I’ll get to them soon. Anyways, have a great day!)

“Here, I got some water for us. The lights in here are really hot for some reason. Maybe we can find a control panel or something to turn some of them off.”

They popped open the bottles and gulped down the sweet liquid. Perhaps they were focusing hard for that last set, but the brief respite made them aware of how tired they were. Aching throat, numb fingertips, ringing ears. It’s hard to tell how long they were practicing, as the empty venue felt timeless and unchanging.

“I’m surprised you were able to book this place. Venues in the city don’t usually take in small fry like us. Definitely better than that place near the reservoir”

“I have my connections, and the owner’s kid is a patient of mine. Not playing favoritism, but I think that played a part. Plus, the backdoor doesn’t have a lock on it, but don’t tell them about it.”

“Wasn’t planning on it, though I’m quite surprised how many people you get to meet in your line of work. Most of the time, I’m in the woods or some desert with no signs of civilization. Unless you’re counting old ruins, but I don’t think the residents there are quite as chatty.”

Tossing their bottles, they nod to each other as they get back up. Despite how sore they felt, they picked up their instruments once again. A strum of the guitar, a tap on the mike. The vacant seats watch as the pair on stage perform one final set for the night…

Wild Encounter!

(Hey y’all! I haven’t been in much of a drawing mood the past week or so. Just got busy with a bunch of stuff, but it’s thinning out. Anyways, had this idea pop into my head, so here it is! Also, the blue Arcanine belongs to a moot, so credit goes to them. Anyways, good night!)

Sparring

(Hey y’all! Is this more lore??? Mayhaps, I do really want to make more lore tidbits. Idk if I’ll make a proper story or continue with these small entries, so we’ll see. Anyways, have a great night!)

The sound of clashing steel and roaring thunder filled the empty night. He propped himself up, his body shaking from the fatigue. Lifting his head up, he stared down the man above. Sparks danced across his cheek, illuminating a smile that looked down upon the pupil below.

“You know, rescue missions and exploration work is way harder than this. If this tussle is enough to bring you to your knees, I don’t think dungeon work is for you. So, are you ready to throw in the towel?”

With labored breathes, he stands once again, clutching the cold staff in his hand. The question didn’t really matter to either of them, as they both know the answer. Despite his body aching all over, the fire in his eyes burned fervently. With a sigh, he lifted himself up as electricity coursed though the baton. The two Pokemon locked eyes as they lunged at each other, only the night sky witnessing their final clash.

(Hey y’all! Remember that RPG thing I did a WHILE back? Yeah, here’s one for my Raichu OC, Raiden. Anyways have a good night!)

In terms of how the game works, I was thinking it may use a turn-based system akin to old school Final Fantasy. Each character and enemies have something called “Action Progress”, with the character’s being visible to the player. The main stat that affects the bar is the character’s speed. The faster the character, the quick the bar fills and the faster they take a turn. Various debuffs or status conditions could affect the speed of the bar, or perhaps stops the bar for a short while.

(Raiden)
Sword: Raiden’s attacks have a chance to place “Entrapment” on the enemy, along with adjacent enemies. When Raiden attacks an enemy with “Entrapment”, any other enemies with “Entrapment” will receive some damage.

Dagger: Raiden’s attacks have a chance to place “Entrapment” on the enemy. When Raiden lands a crit on an enemy with “Entrapment”, change the debuff into “Ensnarement”. Raiden’s attacks have increased crit chance against enemies with “Entrapment” or “Ensnarement”.

Shield: Raiden gains the ability “Bear Trap”. Using the ability causes Raiden to shift aggro towards himself. Raiden takes reduced damage in this state. When hit, Raiden counterattacks, dealing some damage and placing “Entrapment” on the enemy.

Staff: Raiden gains the ability “Tripwire”. Using the ability causes targeted allies to gain the “Tripwire” buff. Allies with “Tripwire” take reduced damage, with some of the damage being allocated to Raiden’s HP. Allies with “Tripwire” have a chance to inflict “Entrapment” when dealing damage to an enemy.

Tome: Raiden can directly apply “Entrapment” using its respective action. When using “Entrapment” on an enemy with “Entrapment”, change the debuff into “Ensnarement”. Enemies with “Entrapment” or “Ensnarement” will receive DEF and MG RES reduction. Any attacks by Raiden and allies will have increased crit chance against enemies with “Entrapment” or “Ensnarement”.

Senketsu

(Hey y’all! Despite how recent I’ve posted, I actually have been drawing for quite a bit. The first time I dabbled with digital media was like +5 years ago, and I felt like I made a lot of progress since. So I wanted to draw an old piece to see. Anyways, have a great night!)

(Hey y’all! Just did some doodling of some Discord folks I know, and wanted to share :3. Credit goes to their respective peeps, and I hope you have a good day.)

Behind the scenes stuff, but I was originally going to tag this as “suggestive”. Nothing about it is explicitly suggestive, or at least hints at it. Idk some of my other stuff felt like that too, so I tagged them. It really is one of those things that is context-specific, y’know? I’ll have to figure out what counts a suggestive so I don’t stress out about it. Of course, I’ll try to tag whatever I can when it’s appropriate.

(Hey y’all! I’ve been a bit busy this week, but I still wanted to draw. So I doodled some hypothetical cafe food based on my characters! I should draw food more often, seeing how much I enjoy food. Anyways, have a great night!)

Sweet n Sour Apple Set
A two-for-one special! A light and sweet custard jelly with a caramel center, topped with chocolate pieces and apple slices. Paired with a vanilla sponge cake with a tangy green apple syrup, wearing some chocolate shades.

A thick slice of layered sponge cake dotted with bits of chocolate and raspberry jam. Plated with a powdered raspberry zigzag and a dollop of whipped cream with a little chocolate squeeze bottle.

Sol’s Cookie Toolbox
Three warm snickerdoodle cookies and a medley of fresh fruits. Accompanied by three dips (milk chocolate, hot honey, vanilla frosting) for mixing and taste testing.

Rai’s Orange Jelly Cake
A big orange jelly topped with condensed milk, chocolate syrup, and chocolate orange slices. Underneath lies a sponge cake dome filled with an orange and popping candy sauce.
