Always
Do Leo and Clay have any dreams they want to achieve?
Thanks for the ask!! I'm still playing through the postgame of Explorers of Sky right now, so I'll be answering this based in where Clay and Leo are at that point of the story.
Clay wants to be someone that Grovyle would be proud of. After Dialga restored him to the new timeline, Clay slowly started to regain pieces of his memories with Grovyle. This is painful for him because Grovyle essentially raised him in the dark future, and Clay views him as his older brother. This only gets worse as time goes on and he recovers more memories. Despite the pain that this comes with, Clay is determined not to let it get him down. He's determined to live his life to the fullest in the incredible world he protected, because he knows it's what Grovyle would want him to do. He'll keep working hard like he always has, and he'll keep exploring with Leo and helping him achieve his own goals. He'll keep moving forward with a smile on his face, and he'll always be there for Leo, like Grovyle was for him.
Leo dreams becoming as great of an explorer as his parents were. They were master rank explorers, and their exploration team, Team Daybreak, was well known for their many discoveries. Leo wants to achieve Master rank with Clay on Team Sunspark. It seems unattainable to him at first, but he becomes increasingly confident as he explorers more with Clay. He got close to giving up after Clay disappeared, but his return a few months later reignites his motivation. After graduating from Wigglytuff's guild, Team Sunspark quickly becomes known for their explorations of Sky Peak and Blizzard Island. Due to their success in this and in preventing the collapse of Temporal Tower, Clay and Leo become known across the Grass Continent as generational young prodigies, and Team Sunspark becomes recognized as one of the hottest up and coming exploration teams. They're currently at Super Rank, and Leo's more fired up than ever to continue working towards his goal.
Once he achieves master rank, Leo hopes to travel overseas to search for his parents. They went missing a few years before he met Clay while exploring on the Water Continent, and he wants to find out what happened to them. He also wants to discover lots of unique sceneries to paint. He's always looking for fresh inspiration as an artist, and his explorations are a good way at providing that.
Sorry that I went on a bit of a tangent there, but I saw this as an opportunity to dump a lot of the ideas I've had while playing through the postgame. Thanks again for asking!!
Thanks for the tag! I had a lot of fun with this so I ended up doing a few for each member of my Explorers squad
Clay (Shinx):
I don’t know where he would get heels, or why he would have them. But he would absolutely commit to the bit of being REALLY good at using them with paws on all fours
He’s still VERY traumatized from what Dusknoir did to him, and it only gets worse as he starts to recover his memories of the past (amnesia deleted trauma comes back) :(
He completely knocks the wind out of Grovyle when he first arrives in the present after the post game
Leo (Charmander):
He chews on his claws a lot when he’s nervous (which happens often). Even when he becomes more confident later on, it’s hard for him to break the habit
Leo is very sentimental when it comes to holidays and traditions. Decorating his house for them reminds him of so many happy memories he has with his parents.
Anyone who dares to hurt Clay is in eminent danger (Dusknoir is not safe)
Basil (Grovyle):
Running from Dusknoir for most of his life made sleep deprivation a close acquaintance of his, and he almost ODed on chesto berries in an effort to stay awake for 72 hours straight once. He has a difficult time adjusting to maintaining a healthy lifestyle once his life isn't constantly in danger.
He gave Clay as stuffed teddyursa he handmade when Clay was a little kid. He's held onto it for years even after Clay outgrew it.
Lola (Celebi):
Lola is not a large pokemon. Nobody needs somebody who weighs 11 lbs and has the ability to time travel to be amped up on 200 mg of caffeine.
She spend most of her life being unable to because noon didn't happen. Let her enjoy it.
I mean, come on. You all have seen PMD tumblr.
Dusknoir
If anyone asks him about this, he hard denies it every time (he's lying)
I don't have much to say about this one. Maybe Dusknoir was only serving Dialga to cover up his cringey chronically online past
This is probably the song he sings in the shower
I found this site that generates you a random headcanon.... How about we do that: you enter the name of a character (or your OC!), post what you got, and then comment on how true do you think it is for them!
Not true. That was very easy.

Lately on my dash, I have been seeing lots of wonderful mutuals get too hard on their beautiful minds.
Lovelies, your stories and art are beautiful because they are from you, and FOR you. Stats do not determine the quality of a product. Again, some of the BEST stories on the archive I have ever read were around 100 hits, and 0-10 kudos. Some of the BEST ART I’ve seen has 0 notes.
You know how I can tell? Because the authors and artists poured their heart and soul into their craft. As long as it can inspire ONE person, you should be proud. You just radically changed the life and perspective of ONE person. That’s amazing.
Sure, you might think your art or story is “cringe” or “bad”…OR, it can be someone’s comfort piece that they go back to after a long day. You may see your stats and think, “man, nobody enjoys this,” not knowing that maybe, juuuust maybe, you have that ONE person who you’ve inspired, who loves your work, and lurks your socials awaiting for your next project. Your art, your music, YOUR story has the potential to do that, but you have to love what YOU do.
And yes, your love WILL show. Maybe not with stats, or kudos, or notes, or comments. But you may be someone’s favorite without even knowing. As long as your art is out there, it WILL reach somebody. I will try to be that somebody for a lot of you, but there is indeed A LOT of you.
In a world where media is being “consumed” for “content,” remember that ART comes from the heART (sorry not sorry for being cheesy). Artists, Writers, Poets, Musicians, Sculptors, HUMANS: Get your hearts out there for the world to see. The world needs more motivated minds. 💫
#11, #18, and #44— or #33 if you don't have a favorite myth for #11 ^^
Ooo, these are good.
I took a classical mythology class my freshman year of college and three years of Latin in high school (we did a lot of Roman mythology stuff in there), so I actually have a good bit of material to work with here! I think my favorites are the ones that start to blur the line between history and mythology. The Iliad/Trojan war, for example, is one I like a lot, because it very much feels like an actual event that took place. I find it really interesting to read stories like that where the gods become deeply involved with a seemingly real conflict that should just be an issue among mortals.
Not anything I'd ACTUALLY consider a script. I guess I've technically written some very short script-like things for some skits/projects in school, but nothing I every put too much work into or would actually consider a script. Almost all of the writing I do is scientific or analytical, but when I do write fictional pieces I'm definitely better at more traditional narrative stuff.
I'm not a huge fan of it. I like it mixed into some things like with piña coladas, but besides that I tend to avoid it.
Seeing the incredible art/stories people create here, and how it's able to bring so many people together
The weekly calls I have with my friends who I don't get to see often because we go to different colleges. We've been doing this for a year now, and my best friend and I have been telling the others the stories for OC's we've been writing for almost 10 years now
Looking at all the plushies of Pokemon, Kirby, Ori, and others that I have around my room
Thinking about how far I've come this semester in terms of my mental health
Cuddling with my cats back at home
Simply being in the presence of my close friends, whether we're actually doing anything or not
Oh, how the tables turn.
(+Extra)(They are so cringefail)
Hey look it's my guys!! Thanks again for this, the songs were really fun to listen to :)
This one is for team Sunspark, made by @stingraywipe! I'll prolly have a different distribution of songs for this one, but there'll still be plenty of tunes!
I do have to apologize for the lack of rambles on these like the other ones, braincells come and go.
Snail town! I think this one fits Clay being friendly. A funky lil tune for a funky lil guy!
White shadow. It goes a lot a better with Leo, who's a good bit more introverted.
A Rainy Forest Morning! A song for both of em chilling!
Now for the combat tunes!
Onslaught of Tribulation. This is the only one on youtube that there is. But! Seems like it works with the vibes the two have!
Heroic confrontation. My idea for a 'difficult' fight or one where the two have to go all out.
Hopefully you enjoy em!
@teshamerkel I may have gone overboard, but in my defence, they are very lovable. I wanted to do a sketch of team scarlet as Hiccup and Toothless (thank you for nothing, you useless reptile), but I couldn't figure it out.
