Hello, to help do what I can to support Palestine during the strike, I've decided to do this. If you donate an eSim to Gaza, I will draw (lined or lineless) art of whatever you choose, so as long as you send me evidence that you've done so, like a purchase receipt. You can donate as little as $6 to give 7 days worth of internet to someone in Gaza to give them a chance to communicate with friends and family and spread the word for what's happening to them, so please consider doing so, and I'll throw a little bit of art your way in return.

I saw Rin & Nimbus on AO3 and thought that I knew them from somewhere. I like your characters, and the things that you create are very good.

Aw thank you!! I need to update my AO3 with more fics, I keep not finishing the ficlets I keep starting... I wanna do more though. I'm glad you like them ^^

#focus will likely be on h/p pairs...#i actually have one im writing rn for gti. but im tempted to start brainstorming for nimbus. but i wanna do both at once #mail #anonymous

So scared of a world you're endlessly curious about.

#thinking abt nimbus again... i think they're gonna have the typical amp plains backstory after all and play into #the luxray tribe's paranoia of the outside world due to pokemon that'd terrorize them and eventually scatter them...#pkmn #starfallification #starry arts #pmd ocs #pokemon #shinx #nimbus #pmd2 #explorers of sky #pokemon mystery dungeon #pmd

The patient needs more ocs to interact with canon characters to live.

Was going to create a new "canon" starfallverse team for Explorers, with Rin/Nimbus in a different self indulgent canon, but I can't do that. I love those goobers too much. But I wanted to put the team I'd been considering into the canon anyways because I've got some ideas...

#(ftr sylvies story is kind of a wip... but i really wanna do stuff with her)#she was also gonna be a human from the future but i think that sorta goes against my lore that bidoof's wish turned hero into a pokemon #and idk why itd apply to sylvie considering what i do have of her story rn...#i might still make that work... but idk....#shaymin #vulpix #pmd #pmd explorers #pkmn #pokemon mystery dungeon #pmd ocs #sylvie #poppy

also i am so sorry to everyone who recommended pmd designs like. a year ago </3 burnout hit me like a pile of bricks

#i might ask for new ones sorryyy

asterbats

i think sf!chatot has the honchkrow hat too but he cuts it to look like a regular chatot because he’s ashamed of that part of his heritage….

asterbats

Wanna get back to making designs for canon PMD characters so here are some sketch wips… also that last one is an attempt at a Celebi redesign bc i don’t like my last one. I want her to look weirder

Croagunk will probably change a lot, i wanna make him a witch but he doesn’t look weird enough for me. Love how Chatot and Bidoof look though.

#idea for chatot is that his dad was a mob boss honchkrow and he left that life to make things better but he still has a shitty attitude from #it that he has to overcome #i wanted to give celebi hair bc i dont like drawing her onion hair sorryyyy its annoying for me…..#pmd #starry arts #sketches #starfallification

this is how i'm dropping lore

original

#oh yeah also its vaguely anthro bc it fit a bit better and i felt like it #necrozma is like. the overseer of ultra space. its an extremely important god for the multiverse #poor necrozma is too broken to enjoy yuri. it needs light to consume yuri NOW #also its necrozma not arceus bc necrozma is more important to this story so it fits #gligar #popplio #necrozma #asha #valerie #pkmn #pmd #pmd ocs #starfall

How did it take me this long to draw out this joke with them.

(Gliscor need to drink blood now and then to sustain themselves or they'll get sick. Castor usually handles that with hunting or getting expired blood packets from the clinic... or the hubby)

three ocs of your choice and that one particular thing they don't really want others to know (be it really embarrassing or earthshatteringly personal) €v:

Counting two as one since it's the same thing, but Marlow and Felicity actually still deeply care about one another romantically deep down. Marlow is just too stubborn for his own good to reconcile with her, even though he feels horrible for what happened, and Felicity's tired of being the one to try and extend the olive branch when SHE was the one who was hurt in the first place.
... Is it cheating to say another Marlow one, I'm thinking about him... and idk where else this lore will go... He's got a lot of stuff. A few years before the events of Starfall, Valerie sent out a request asking to be escorted around a mystery dungeon. She felt desperate to explore, but wasn't allowed to go out on her own, and she felt safer asking a qualified team for help. Her request was accepted! Marlow found the accepted request first, and before Valerie got home that day, he threw it out. He comforted Valerie when she was "ghosted", but was too choked up with guilt to say anything besides "I'm sorry." He doesn't regret it, truly, but he doesn't want Valerie to know either way.
Aisling is a huge romantic and really really really wants a wife and kids. This is not actually a secret, but she thinks it is and she's embarrassed that a "cool" pokemon like her would be so sappy. She swoons HARD. She is a bleeding heart and writes hearts in her diaries in her tender 30s.
Dunno if this really counts, but Felicity always hates when pokemon ask how long she was trapped in her own egg. She knows they're just curious, but the reaction grosses her out whether it's sympathetic, incredulous, etc. Even worse if they go "what do you think happened to the frostbitten sneasel clowder?" or even the dreaded "Why do you think you were left like that?"

#really. saying marlow for these is cheating bc hes got a LOTTTT of shit hes hiding #huh.... ended up being abt team spark. damn am i finally coming back around to them??? i hope so. im getting burnt out on the bugs #especially felicity goddddd i need to do more with herrrrrrrr #starfall lore

I’m not changing any designs again, and I’m really attached to their parents so I’ve no interest in changing them, but man. You can tell that Asha and Valerie were designed before I got the hang of drawing Pokemon mixes.

These days, I try to base mix designs off of theming or what would look good together, but back then, they were my first time actually designing my own ocs myself if that makes sense? So they were just the standard gligar and popplio with some accessories, and their parentage wasn’t important, so I just mashed some of my faves (heracross for asha, samurott for valerie) together. And then when I decided I wanted to do mixes… well. Heracross doesn’t really lend itself well to those (designing Atlas and Maya’s traits were a huge pain in the ass and I’m still kinda eh about Sakura not visibly being a heracross mix) and oshawott and popplio are deceptively hard to fuse, at least with popplio as the base. The scalchop is an obvious option, but I don’t know where it’d go on Val, and I could make her nose brown… but then she doesn’t match with Marlow :(

I think if I was designing them today, I’d choose totally different parents for them. Gliscor/scizor for Asha and primarina/zoroark or emboar for Valerie. But right now, my excuse is just that they’re slight mixes, which means that they just didn’t inherit much from their other parent’s species as much as other pokemon in their clutches would have.

#(btw i call them ‘’mixes’’ and not ‘’hybrids’’ bc it almost feels like false advertising ndjdjd…. they’re not actually real fusions —#— like. aisling for example is just an emolga. electric/flying and same moveset but with egg moves. she just also has ambipom traits)
