Part 3 Admirari had fainted, but was still in one piece. Yet Isobel's hands still shook. They still yearned for something to hit. No, she couldn't do this. She was in control of her instincts. Isobel pulled herself up and got back to her original spot before the battle, putting her remaining...

Part 2 Isobel had a lot of explaining to do. Her shoes slapped against the cobblestones as she charged through the streets. She was going up to meet the trainer near the Hero's Bath and hopefully get herself out of this jam. Stupid. She was stupid. Stupid for snapping at her trainer and stupid...

Summary: A lone Machamp, desperate for rent money, becomes a temporary team member in order to stay in her beloved Circhester. However, when she discovers the hiring trainer is a spoiled influencer, she's forced to side with him in order to get paid. She not only has to fight for someone she...

Ah, hello Venia! I never imagined this would be someone’s introduction to TCATS, but I guess I left it open ended enough for it to work out of context, and I’m glad it seemed to resonate somewhat. Yeah, more or less the main point I wanted to get at with the story. That it’s okay to enjoy...

"Huh," Tony said, skimming through the contents of the strange letter. "New friends of yours?" "Um," Shine said, "it's a long story." "Like, a loooooong story," Curio said. "Kind of flattered they sent it all the way to here, but how the hell are we supposed to respond?" "Well, if they say...

Celebrating The Curious and the Shiny's 2nd Anniversary, with Spoiler Q&A! Woah, so second year already? Well then. Still wasn't expecting to get this far even when I did the first Q&A, but it's been a great journey so far. Thanks to all the people who read this story; your support has made...

Hello! I decided to bash out a quick 2k word story based on an idea I had about a couple of the side characters in The Curious and the Shiny! I thought I'd post it separately from that thread since it focuses on a minor character that's very non-essential to the story. Reading TCATS beforehand...

Yeah, I could be down for this!

ANNOUNCEMENT: And that’s it for Part 1 of The Curious and the Shiny! Not the end of the story, period, since there’s still a Part 2, but I think this is a good place to put a checkpoint on TCATS since we’ve reached the point where the premise of the fic has been flipped on its head. This was one...

AN: And I'm back with one/two new chapters before I go on hiatus. More details will be available in a separate post from this chapter because of the word count, but for now, here's the conclusion to Part 1 of TCATS! Chapter 37: To The (M)oon The whole room was silent. Tony stopped recording...

I like the rest of this opening line, but while petrichor is a nice detail to the description, I don't think it's the kind of smell (an earthy and pleasant scent) that would assault Brisa's nose, even considering she most likely has a heightened sense of smell as a Pokemon. Hmmm gee, I wonder...

Curio: "Who am I? Well... I'm a mess, that's for sure. I'm a Lucario, obviously, and a very weird looking one if you have a pair of functioning eyes. What other Lucario has a metal arm like this one? I guess the true question though is who I am. As in, what my essence is or what my true self is...

Chapter 36: Flowers for Ca(m)ellia Content Warning: References to suicide, depictions of abuse, death and trauma. --- Curio stopped, taking another swig of a half-empty bottle. Tony clicked the camera off for now, getting up to stretch his legs, and of course, pet Shine. While his ears were...

Yes, that's what I've been so excited about, building up to this eventual revelation! While I won't spoil too much about the specific routes it will take, that is the general idea I want to lead into. Hmm, again, as we discussed through Discord, it's tricky to think of any other way I could've...

Chapter 35: Slipping off the (M)ask (With M successfully captured, what happened afterwards?) What do you think? I really don’t want to harp on about it any more than I have already. Bolt was found back in the detention room, knocked out, but safe in the sick bay. Shine was being treated as...

Same warning applies here: Blood, trauma, and implied abuse. Chapter 34: (M)onster, Part 2 Shine stopped and burst into tears, all streaming down from his single eye. Right then, Tony stopped recording and wrapped his arms around the Luxray. Curio joined them not long after, putting them in a...

Warning for this chapter: Blood, trauma, and implied abuse. Chapter 33: (M)onster Part 1 Shine took the hot seat that time as him and Curio swapped places. Although it was following up from before, his heart still pounded. He would have to talk about that day when it happened. He sighed...

Chapter 32: Just Desserts Tony stopped recording, gesturing Shine to get off the couch, and when he did, his trainer scratched his ears. “You’ve come a long way,” he said, “It sounded tough, but I’m glad you were able to stick it through then.” “Indeed,” Shine said with a sigh. “It wasn’t all...

Chapter 31: (M)eeting Tony stopped recording again and ran his hands over his face. Shine in turn rose up, staring attentively at his trainer. “Oh, dear, Shine. I’m sorry to hear about this.” Shine cocked his head. “Whatever do you mean?” “I mean, Bolt, of course.” “Well, this isn’t your...

Oh damn, even in PMD, Karens still exist. Kill it! Kill it with fir-- Oh, wait. Kill it with water! This game me 'nam flashbacks. -- Okay, so I'm glad I gave this one a read, because it definitely struck a chord with me. Ames is relateable enough as we start with him being a henpecked...
