Bio

Well hello.

I guess I should introduce myself, huh.

I'm Gardevoiran, just some schmuck going to college and working towards getting a degree in Fine Arts.

I do commissions and what-not, and you can ask me to do a commission for you through my Discord (Gardevoiran #1429) or up here through RPGuild PMs, and I receive donations and payment through my Ko-fi page. Clicking the box right below here will take you to it.



I'm a nerd. I play Pokemon religiously, I dabble in some anime, I write up here, and I love watching incredibly awful movies and just making fun of them. Specifically things like "Leo the Lion" and what not.

I don't have much else to say, so I guess I can leave you guys with a really bad joke.

"What do you call a cow with two legs?"
"Lean beef."

"That'd be... pretty helpful, not gonna lie. Normally I have Seabreeze perched on my head, but... well... that Dragon Pulse knocked him clean out." Skylar pat the floor with his cane as he started walking back to town, Florrie at his side. "Truth be told, I'm not completely blind, but if you asked me to read anything that wasn't two inches in front of my face, glasses or not I wouldn't be able to." Skylar chuckled. "My vision is that blurry."

The walk back to town was... uneventful. Skylar knew roughly where to head, judging from the lights in the distance, but he did appreciate Florrie helping him back to town.

As she brought up how she and Dunstan could use some help with something, Skylar nodded and offered a smile. "I was already planning on it. I happen to be a photographer of sorts, and the pictures I've taken on this journey might be of some interest to Dunstan. That, plus now I need to go resurrect another fossil." That Old Amber might turn into quite a pretty reliable team member. "I'm gonna heal up my team then I'll be right there." He offered a small wave before stepping into the Pokemon Center and healing his team back up from... basically nothing.

Once everyone was healed, Skylar quickly let everyone out when he exited the Pokecenter.

"Wingull? Seabreeze wasted no time perching back onto Skylar's head.
"..." Paradise was calm and quiet. Not especially unusual.
"Ral?" Mac climbed onto Paradise's back and waited for Skylar to speak.
"Combusken! Comb! Usken!" Mac was practically dancing in satisfaction from that last battle.
"Vivillon...? Vivillon!" Jeebs practically joined in moments after assessment.
"Emu!" Royal offered a cocky smirk, like it was nothing.

"Alright, quick debriefing. I know you guys probably still need a bit to rest up from that, so I won't keep you waiting." Skylar started to his group, sitting on the dusty ground and calling his little pow-wow. "While yeah, that wasn't the cleanest victory, we still pulled through with our heads held high! Every single one of you should be proud of yourselves!" He praised the lot of his group, everyone's spirits raising a little more. "All we can go from here is up, and with team members like you kids, I'm confident we can keep moving." Skylar patted everyone on the head, and one by one the group... purred. Weird to think about a bird purring, but Seabreeze certainly did.

"Mac, Seabreeze, do you mind staying out of your Pokeballs? I promise, no more training until morning if I can help it."

"Combusken!" "Gull!"

"That's what I like to hear. Alright guys, get a good rest. I'll let you guys out before I go to bed tonight." he called back his other four Pokemon before standing back up, Mac running to Skylar's side and bouncing on his claws. "Back to the lab again. Let's see about another potential friend..."

And thusly, the crew went back to the lab.

Skylar's immediate first reaction was to head back to the guy who handled his fossil before. With any hope, he could maybe resurrect two at a time for the trainer...? "Hey, so I know I might be acting like a burden, but is there any way you could take another fossil for me and resurrect it as well?" Skylar held up his Old Amber. "It'd be totally fine if you couldn't, we can just do a trade-off tomorrow morning when I come back for the Plume Fossil."

Regardless of anything that happened, Skylar and co. would be facing Dunstan's office in a few minutes at most.

"Hello? Professor Dunstan?" the trainer knocked a few times. "Uh, mind if I come in? I have a few pictures to show you!"

"Yeah, you're right. I'm Riku. I like that title, Royal-turned Adventurer. Now...how'd you know about the scarf?"
Riku

Ah, so she was right. Scarf from the mother, no doubt a queen of some far-away land, and she had come here for a life of adventure and to possibly leave all of that behind. Akiko understood, and she was in a similar boat. Maybe not exactly, but she was still looking for her own goals in a 'world' beyond hers. So far, she'd been succeeding.

"Maaaaaan, if I knew you were just gonna threaten to dismember her I would've just skipped the threats and done it myself."
Ami

"Hardly a threat, Murota. I'd think of it... promise isn't right... as a vow that I, frankly, won't have to follow up on if she chooses to play nice." Akiko spoke, almost in such a cold way to make her cheery exterior feel... disturbing. Almost like she was entirely confident that, if Riku came close, she would absolutely perish. Almost like she was fully prepared for anything.

"So, Akiko, Ami. Was it? Give over your stories and why you're innocent and you won't have to get exorcised. Easy peasy!"
Riku

Akiko offered a smirk, her left hand folding behind her back and her right hand placed across her chest. "Why, I've already told you who I am. Akiko Miazaki, travelling poet and fortune teller, blessed with the ability to see into your future and pick apart your past. Of course, those are not my only abilities, though I certainly would prefer to not let you see the hand I'm working with." She offered a soft giggle. "After all, what's the fun without a little bit of the unknown to keep you dancing on your toes?"

"Ami, doesn't this cloaked girl give you a serious Light Magical Girl vibe? I want to punch a frown on her face just looking at it. Give me a hand, for old times sake, will ya'? And hey, she even matches the description of one of thieves. It's practically a public service!"

"Yep, I like that plan."

"Now wait a second! I'm no thief! I just arrived here! I sincerely wished to offer my services to get some coin! I can even assist in finding this thief too! I'm just a mercenary looking for good work! I really don't want to fight you again, Kanbaru. I'd never steal from anywhere if I knew you were connected to it."
Kanbaru, Riku, and Ami

Now that was... interesting. Not only did it seem Kanbaru and Ami had some long past from knowing each other outside of this Tower, but Riku happened to already know who Kanbaru is. That would absolutely explain her skittish nature on Riku's end upon seeing Kanbaru, but the only question that lasted became just why the two fought? She wasn't sure, but something in her mind told her that this Kanbaru wasn't the same one who entered this Tower with Rose and herself. This Kanbaru was much different, indeed.

"Ah, those two. Always resorting to violence." Akiko teased as she folded her arms behind her back, tails swishing behind her as she walked to Victoire's throne and stood beside it. "Ah, girls will be girls, I suppose. And who would've guessed that they have history! Such a surprise, indeed!" Her eyes danced along the blasts of water and the onslaught of carnal rage. Ami, Kanbaru, and Riku, all squaring off for the enjoyment of a vampire queen. She couldn't help but be enticed by this idea.

"If I might be so bold to say, Lady Bordeaux, this is quite the situation unfolding. I sincerely hope you don't mind if I stay out of it." Akiko turned to face the vampire for a moment, a smirk across her face and an ear flicking towards the fight. "I prefer to keep my hands clean of such trivialities."

As she turned back, to any who could see it, Castle would remain manifested next to Akiko, but its eyes were not even close to facing the battlefield. Instead, its eyes trailed on Victoire herself. As if Akiko would let her guard down for the vampire to take advantage of her.

"It was just a thought, and I wouldn't be so sure of a victory next time." Skylar smirked. "This is just the beginning." And off Anton and his goons went, into the darkness of the cave... and once they were gone, Skylar sighed to himself. "Phew, barely made it out of that one."

Then the girl came out of hiding, and Skylar looked genuinely surprised that she didn't run after the grunt battle. Moreso, she thanked Skylar for saving her, which just struck him as a little odd. "Eh, no worries. I tend to gravitate towards helping people when they need it." He glanced down at the Crystals of Emotion on his wrist before looking back up. "I do appreciate you sticking around. That was dicey near the end, and if I failed you might've had to try and clear out the rest of that fight."

Skylar turned back to the battlefield, just thinking about how close that fight was, when he noticed a little shine of a gray blob in his vision. Odd, what was that about...?

"All that aside, though, I don't think we got properly introduced." Skylar mentioned as he stepped over to the shiny object on the ground, picking it up. "I'm Skylar, future Flying Type Champion of IssooooOOAHAHA!" Skylar completely broke character as he realized what he picked up. "They didn't even take this Old Amber! Gosh, with how rare Aerodactyl is you'd think Anton might want a team member like it! Ah well, looks like I've got another buddy for my team!" He quickly pocketed the Old Amber and turned back around.

"Sorry. Skylar. I'd introduce my whole team, but they're... not in the best state. Means I'll have to use my cane again..." As Skylar waited for the girl's response, he reached onto the side of his bag and pulled off his cane.

Skylar smirked, grabbing one of the Pokeballs from his waist and preparing it. "Bring it on, Anton!"

Bird Tamer Skylar accepted the challenge!


The comment about making a predictable choice was a little worrisome, but Skylar knew exactly who was coming out to handle this fight. Sure, again, might've been a little predictable, but he knew the stakes. "Mac, you're up first buddy!"

His Pokeball let loose a bright flash of red light, and out came the Combusken. "ComBUSKENNN!" He was fired up!

"Sorry it might be rough, I really thought it'd be lower." Skylar apologized to the girl before turning to the boss of this pontoon of grunts.

‘Do you want to win through strength in numbers, or are you going to take me on like a proper Pokémon Trainer in a proper Pokémon battle? I don’t know which option would be worse for you. You’re going to lose badly either way.’
Grump

"I wouldn't count on that. I trust in my team to take you on." Skylar returned all of his Pokemon to his Pokeballs for once. He didn't want the Poison hurting any particular team member while he waited to send them in for this bout.

"Bring it on, Grump!"

"Haha! There we go! Without that Koffing, Jeebs ability is in full play!" Skylar smirked. These guys already weren't doing a ton of damage to his stronger team members, but now that Friend Guard was up? Oh man, that was good. He did wince a little at the three Pokemon on his team being poisoned, but to be honest he was going to go to the Pokemon Center after this anyway. Not much else to do in here after he wipes the floor with these fools.

"Alright, now for his friend, Mac!"
- Double Kick on the Lillipup for the win. Mac is so good.

"JoJo, with that Light Screen you can't do a ton of damage, so play on the supportive side! Go with a Lucky Chant!"
"Rallallall~!"
- Ralts has pitiful stats already, to be honest, and a Light Screen doesn't help this at all. A Lucky Chant to keep the team from being critted is probably one of the better plays going on! Side note, Trace should activate? I dunno what ability it'd copy though, so...

"Royal, Quick Attack! Take Rufflet out!"
- Yup.

"Keep it up, Paradise! Razor Leaf everything but the Foongus and Bellsprout!"
- We're going for the triple hit here. With any luck, Razor Leaf should take out anything that isn't already taken out, leaving the rest of the foes as the Foongus and Bellsprout. That being said, we do still have two Pokemon to work with on Skylar, and the three that the new girl has. Should be fine.

"Seabreeze, finish off the Foongus! Wing Attack!"
- Yessir.

"Struggle Bug again, Jeebs! The Bellsprout and Foongus are good targets!"
- I love Jeebs. I didn't think Jeebs would be super well off in this fight, but Jeebs is really helping with the stat drops and spread damage, and now that we have Friend Guard? Oh boy!

"Think you can take out the rest?" Skylar looked over to the girl with his plan. Sandile should be able to wipe up the Bellsprout and Foongus, if they're still up, while the other two should hopefully be able to clear something else out of the way. Hopefully, with everything and a little luck, Skylar would pull out of this after this round.

"Wow, that's a lot of Pokemon. You really should've brought a few more!" Skylar sounded confident in his team, everyone taking a stance in front of the trainer as he prepared for his all-out assault on this squadron of Pokemon. It wasn't going to be easy, but Skylar felt like he could make it out of this battle reasonably well.

He turned to the girl beside him. "I'll help get your weaknesses if you get mine. We won't let them get your heirloom!"

Bird Tamer Skylar accepted the challenge!

This wasn't going to be easy, but Skylar had plans for this.

"Mac! Don't even let that Patrat get a chance to hurt Paradise!"
- Mac is the easiest first choice of moves. See, there are two normal types here, and Mac's already rocking quite a strong type advantage against most of these goons. The immediate concern he has, though, is keeping Patrat from getting off quite a nasty bide onto Paradise. So... we're going for a Double Kick on the Patrat. If I'm not wrong, the additive damage from the Tackle plus a Double Kick should handle this Patrat easy. From there, Double Kicking the Lillipup should clean up two of these foes easily.

"JoJo, we need that Koffing down! Soften it up for Sandile with a Confusion!"
- Unfortunately, JoJo isn't as easy. That being said, Confusion is super effective on the Koffing, and Sandile should outspeed it as well, so maybe we can score an early victory on the Koffing before it poisons the whole squad, or at least the ones that haven't moved to clear the distance.

"Royal, take out this underhanded Rufflet! Spark and Quick Attack!"
- This Rufflet's doing a low-blow of a thing, but it's not to worry. While I'm sure that Royal's not going to be strong enough to handle everything that this Rufflet's trying to throw out at us, I do know that he'll be very weak after the Spark and a Quick Attack might be able to finish him off.

"Paradise, move and Razor Leaf the Wooper! After that, just go for them at whoever you can hit!"
- If we're weighing the strengths, I don't think splitting some of this damage would be the grandest idea at first. If we're also weighing the strengths, keeping Mac at his best is the greatest move we can make as he has the best matchup against quite a fair few of these Pokemon. It's a tried-and-true method to keeping this fight as clean as possible. Paradise is also a big girl, she can do it.

I would also like to point out the position of JoJo on top of Paradise. If Paradise is moving out of the Poison Gas range, then it could stand to assume that JoJo would be fine too. If you wanna get both of them poisoned, then that'll be fine, but still.

"Hey, don't think I didn't see that Foongus! Seabreeze, Wing Attack!"
- Honestly, Seabreeze is kinda weird here. He has good matchups, but Wingull isn't the greatest Pokemon. That being said, level differences and type matchups do work. Seabreeze should be able to make a solid dent in this Foongus, if not outright K-O it. Just assume that Seabreeze is just going to continue from there.

"Jeebs, hit the Foongus, Rufflet, and Espurr with a solid Struggle Bug!"
- Spread damage dividing sucks, but Struggle Bug has incredible utility with it. Espurr is specially offensive and Foongus is using a special move. Keeping damage off Seabreeze is a solid option and chipping damage on all the other options is also a good choice. Maybe not the greatest, but hopefully we can make up for any issues on the next round.

As the mines got darker and darker, Skylar pulled Royal out of his Pokeball once again. While technically Royal didn't know Flash, not that Skylar really needed it since he couldn't see in the first place, A little bit of some dim light wouldn't be a terrible idea. "Hey Royal, mind using Charge? Maybe we can get a little more light shining in here."

"Emu!" The Emolga flew out in front of Skylar and clenched its paws, gathering some form of energy before dimly glowing around it's cheeks. There, not too much light, but it was at least enough to have everyone tell where Skylar was.

"Alright, everyone, stick together. We're not working with a lot of light here, so it'd be best if we hung... hm?" Skylar stopped his explanation as he heard someone in the distance, and it very well seemed that JoJo heard the same kind of commotion going on. The boy slowly moved his way towards the source of the noise when he finally got a good look at the scene going on.

There was a girl, a shiny pink light, a bunch of assumedly Team Virtue grunts mining away at some kind of treasure, and their head honcho. Skylar couldn't help but sigh with annoyance. "Professor Kalmia was right, these team Virtue members are really narrow." Skylar stepped forward a second, before JoJo grabbed his leg and caused him to stop. "Eh? What's up, bud?"

"Rrallal! R-ral!" JoJo was clearly afraid of what was going on over there, and opted to try and keep Skylar from getting involved. To be fair, if Skylar did choose to engage, this would be a 2 on 5 fight, unless the trainer with the pink light opted to run away. Skylar shook his head and looked over.

"JoJo, it might be a rough fight, but we've gotta try. We won't become one of the strongest trainers in Isson if we don't stand up for what's right." Skylar gripped all of his Pokeballs and let the whole team out. "Besides, with pals like you all, I think we've got some pretty good odds."

"Wingull!"
"Tropius!"
"Combu~~sken!"
"Vivi!"
"Emolga!"

JoJo looked at the rest of the group before shaking his head and teleporting on top of Paradise's head, hugging her gently. "Ralts!"

"Good to hear! Let's roll!" Skylar darted ahead with the rest of his team in tow. As he passed the girl that was running, he offered a friendly wave before he stopped and stood between her and the Team Virtue Grunts. "Need a hand?"

"I gotta say, didn't think I'd find more of you causing trouble with your rashness." Skylar opened. "I've met both your team and the members of Amethyst, and I honestly think you guys might be more of a nuisance than them!" Skylar's whole team was at his back, all ready to stand and fight these fools.

"You guys mind letting her go, or does this blind kid have to put you all in your place like I did on Route 3?" Skylar pointed to his sunglasses before grabbing and lifting them up, again revealing his glossy eyes if the grunts could see them in the dark.

"... ... ... ok, sure." Skylar pulled out his Cover Fossil and gently handed it to Brendon. "It might be a little bit more of an unfortunate trade for me, but if this Cover Fossil gets a good home then I'm sure it'll be okay."

Assuming everything went well, Skylar'd get his Dusk Stone and Brendon would get the Cover Fossil. A solid trade, if not just a little annoying in the end.

-------------------

"Heyyy! Nice! Didn't think we'd get that evolution so soon!" Skylar raised a hand for his new butterfly companion, who high-fived it with joy. "I love your pattern, buddy. I think that's the... Marine pattern? Make sense since Isson is an island region and all."

"Villon!"

"Emol?" Royal looked up at Skylar with a bit of curiosity.

"You've done great too, Royal. Unfortunately, a lot of the stuff in this cave is a lot tougher for you to fight compared to Seabreeze and Paradise." Skylar crouched down to get closer down to his Emolga. "Don't worry, we'll get a good chance next town over to train you up. For now, take a load off." He pulled out Royal's Pokeball and put him away, doing the same for Jeebs and his Pokeball before getting back to mining.

Skylar grabbed a Razor Claw and a Hard Stone from his digging efforts, and it was around that time when he figured he should probably get back to Town, or at least begin to start heading back. The mine was going to close fairly soon, so if he was bound to do anymore training or digging he'd have to come back tomorrow. Not that it disturbed him, since he was going to come back out anyway to do some more digging and training after he got his Archen from the lab.

It was around that time when Skylar noticed that, well, the mines do go a little deeper. He looked to his left and right, before seeing JoJo at his knee and crouching. "Think we could go just a little further?" Skylar asked his green little friend.

"Ralts." The psychic Pokemon nodded at the suggestion. Maybe a little further wouldn't hurt.

"Seabreeze, what do you think?"

"Gull!" Seabreeze cawed in approval.

"Heh, alright then. We'll go just a little further. Maybe we'll see some better foes for training on. I don't think we should spend too much time since this place is closing soon, though." Even if it wasn't truly closing, Skylar wasn't super keen on staying here with the lights off. Not that the darkness really bothered Skylar, since he couldn't see well regardless, but it might get just a little more spooky then he would like for it to be.

(First off, the trade.)
"But fossils are much rarer than stones, yeah?" Skylar countered the negotiations with his own. "It seems awfully like a lot to give up one of these fossils for just one stone, but if you threw in that Shiny Stone with the Dusk Stone, then I could part with either one of these fossils. Your pick." Skylar offered the Helix and Cover fossils he had, in case the hiker was willing to make that trade. "Seems a lot more even that way."

(Back in the 'present'.)
"Hey, you're bringing something back from the beyond for free, I'm not going to act like it's such a burden on me if I can't get my Pokemon now." Skylar offered a smile before a soft poke got his attention. JoJo was prodding at his leg and trying to get him to notice something. "Ralts."

Skylar looked over to Dunstan's sign on his wall after being directed there by JoJo. "... Legendary Researcher... interesting. Might be worth it to show him the pictures of the Legendary Pokemon I've seen so far. Eh, I can do that tomorrow when I come back for the Plume Fossil." As if on cue, Skylar's stomach rumbled. "... yeah, tomorrow. Seabreeze, JoJo, care to go grab a meal and get back to the mines for some more training?"

"Wingull!" "Rrrallala!"

"Motion carried. There's gotta be something around here..." Skylar murmured to himself and his group as he left (though if Dunstan wanted to stop Skylar on his way out, say, interested in those photos, Skylar wouldn't be opposed.) From there, he quickly went back to the center to withdraw Jeebs back into the group since the Plume Fossil had to wait, went to buy some sort of meal for him and his team, and began the long trek back towards the Desert Mines. The sun was setting at this point, so he'd probably only be there for a little while, but any sort of training was good training. Heck, maybe he could have the next gym be similar to Lorette's where it was just the Gym Leader at full force? That'd be fun.

Once Skylar made it back, the same strategy from before was the play. Switch-Training Jeebs and Royal (now also getting JoJo in on some experience), and Paradise, Seabreeze, and Mac keeping the fights simple and clean. All this while, Skylar'd be mining what he could and having whoever wasn't battling at the moment sifting through the results. Maybe he'd find another Plume, maybe he'd just find dirt. Who knows? Regardless, good training.
