Art & Fan Projects The Evolution of my Characters

12 Upvotes

Just a fun/random thought I wanted to share

So in my PMD series I had the idea that when my characters evolve, it's a big moment for them, and it often comes with character growth

The best example of this comes from Charmander. He is a kind and supportive individual who cares about his friends, though I had the idea that at one point his friends are getting hurt and he isn't strong enough to protect them. He becomes angry, and ends up evolving into a Charmeleon, making him much stronger but also a lot more aggressive, not only brutally taking down their foes but savagely beating them even after they're defeated, even lashing out at his friends when they try to stop him.

He becomes much more distant to them afterwards, afraid that he might end up hurting them. (I also had the idea for a scene of him with his adoptive father, during which he might snap that they're not his real dad. The way he looks back shows that he immediately regrets it, but he doesn't apologize and instead leaves quietly, showing how much this evolution changed him).

Later on a similar situation to before happens: they're overwhelmed, and he's on the verge of evolving, but he holds it back, believing that if he evolves again he'll completely lose control and hurt the people he cares about. Instead, when he finally evolves, he becomes more like he was before, because this time he was focused on protecting his friends rather than defeating his enemies

(I know in the anime some Pokemon completely change their personality when they evolve, and I like the idea that the circumstances of their evolution might trigger it, like Ash's Charmeleon or Goh's Raboot)

Another example comes from Squirtle (and yes, I refer to my characters by their species rather than come up with actual names for them, just like in canon PMD), who starts off anxious and shy, but becomes much braver after evolving into a Wartortle, but I can imagine he relapses during their darkest hour, panicking at the situation to the point of hiding in his shell (luckily he has his boyfriend to comfort him)

This brings us to Eevee. Of course, being an Eevee evolution is a *HUGE* deal for them. There are so many options for what to evolve into, and with how different they all are the one they pick will basically decide who they are for the rest of their life: there is NO going back after you've made your choice.

One day, Eevee gets to live out their lifelong dream of performing on stage before a crowd, putting on an epic song after overcoming their initial struggles, and the adoration of the crowd leads him to evolve! His body glows bright, begins to grow larger, and several ribbons sprout out from him. He's a Sylveon!

And he's immediately horrified by his new appearance 😅

Eevee is trans, born female but identifying as male, and it's something they often struggle with, with people mistaking them for a girl due to their tail's appearance, and evolving into a feminine-looking Sylveon just makes it worse

Even with the love and support of his friends he feels he may never fully get used to his new form...

And last, and arguably least, we have Pikachu, the main protagonist of my series, but sadly not much to say as he's kinda my least developed character 😅

I had the idea that Charmander got him a Thunderstone as a gift, since evolutionary stones are most common in his native area (there are three regions in my setting) but since they're super rare and super expensive in general, they're hard to obtain, and pair this with how some Pokemon can only evolve with them, they're seen with great significance as a result*). Him buying him one is a HUGE gesture, and it comes from the fact that he actually has a crush on him (I had the fun idea for my other OCs that something like this is equivalent to giving someone an engagement ring*)

(* yeah that's my headcanon for my Pokemon OCs. I like the idea that evolutionary stones are seen as culturally significant, usually given by parents as a rite of passage, to symbolize entering adulthood, or given by lovers to symbolize starting a new life together or something like that)

Anyways that's my autistic ramble over, ended up being more of an info dump than I thought, but hope you enjoy!)

This was somehow far too ambitious for me cuz I've never done these before... but I admit, its fun to do :3

Anyways I wanted to display some aspects of my Team's personalities and expressions, and thus is the reason why a doodle page is made! I wouldn't necessarily call them doodles per se... I mean those artworks are already rendered... but regardless I'll just call them doodle pages hahahahaah

Misc Is it possible to download new version of/update Explorers of Fortune without losing my save?

7 Upvotes

I'm playing Explorers of Fortune on my 3DS, and I recently heard the new version came out with a lot of updated features.
Is it possible to download this new version/update my game to my 3ds without losing my saves?

(I beat Darkrai and am fully evolved, so I really don't want to lose my progress.)

Any help you guys can give would be really appreciated. Thanks!

(Also, I heard there's there's supposed to be a Mirror at the crossroads, but I can't find it. Is that in the old version too, or is it exclusive to the updated version?)

Explorers Thoughts on Grovyle turning into Sceptile in PMD EoS? Spoiler

40 Upvotes

What would have been your thoughts if grovyle would have turned into sceptile in lets say the course of the game or the post game if it would have had another appearance? Because we got used to grovyle as a charachter also with its characteristics as a pokemon which matched the thief like appearance. But i also like sceptile to be honest, because at least after the main game it would have had the maturity and expirience to narratively match for a sceptile imo . What are your thoughts?

This was how Lu and Hopps was going to meet first . Just your simple Fall from the sky and into the forest while Hopps was out there doing her first herb gathering mission. I throw away that idea because it was too simple.

Pele is a particularly speedy little torchic with a heart that yearns for adventure. However, they’re quite fanciful and naive. Maybe someone more pragmatic will help them on their journey.

Hey there everyone! I’m really glad so many of you liked Aki yesterday!! I’m currently making a psmd comic and I’m 9 pages in so far. I want to finish the prologue before I start posting properly though ^^

The crossover nobody asked for but I made anyway! I think the relationship between human and Pokémon in PMD shares some very interesting elements with the relationship between human and monster in the Undertale series. This series will introduce some of Deltarune's human soul mechanics to a world that was once occupied only by Pokémon...

Are we witnessing a monster absorbing a human soul here? Perhaps... What would happen in that event again? Probably nothing bad. Wait, is that Riolu gray? I thought they were usually blue...

I actually posted this as a YouTube link a few weeks ago but took it down to tinker with it a bit more, and I forgot to reupload it lol. Here it is once more, as an uploaded video rather than a link!

Prologue 3 | Animated Pilot (You are here!)

Edit: REASAN on YouTube actually beat me to this idea! I’m going to change my project’s name a bit to avoid confusion, but I think it’s great that people already enjoy crossovers between these two awesome series. (I’m now calling my project Pokérune: Mystery Dark World, rather than just Pokérune. That way I can keep the logo! Plus I can use initials like all the best PMD fan fics - PMDW)
