Pokemon Black - Tumblr Posts
i’m gonna talk about Pokemon pink because i want too
obviously we all know that that the first pokemon games, red and blue in the west and red and green in japan, were released in 1996 in japan and 1998 in america
between the japanese and western release the pokemon anime started, with pikachu as Ash’s partner, however 5 months or so before the anime’s debut there was a comic called ‘pocket monsters’ that had clefairy as the protagonist’s partner pokemon (pikachu was there but the cover made it clear clefairy was more important)
they decided to make pikachu Ash’s partner because of how popular it had become, quickly surpassing clefairy
because of red and blue’s/green’s massive success they released pokemon special pikachu edition: version yellow however in april of 2020 someone found an early concept for its canceled partner game that people are calling pokemon pink version where instead of pikachu as your starter it was clefairy, most likely because of how important it was before the pikachu switch, and had it would feature a female protagonist! which would have given us a female option two years sooner than the release of pokemon crystal!
sadly pokemon pink was canceled presumably because there was no guarantee it would sell well amongst girls, and boys probably wouldn’t have wanted it or there parents wouldn’t have bought it because it could have been perceived as to feminine
here’s the official pokemon yellow boxart next to fan made pokemon pink box art by user puddi101 on reddit
just so everyone knows my first ever shiny encounter was a ratata on route one of the rom hack pokémon heart red (by @shima-draws ) and i had no idea how to get to my pokeballs so i killed it
can one of y’all rb this with the three posts at the top of my page? i wanna know what they are bc i’ve had some really hitters man
the next pokemon remake we’re gonna get is obviously gonna be black/white but that probably won’t be until nintendo releases there next hand-held:
red / blue (gb) >>> fire red / leaf green (gba)
gold / silver (gbc) >>> heart gold / soul silver (ds)
ruby / sapphire (gba) >>> alpha ruby / omega sapphire (3ds)
diamond / pearl (ds) >>> brilliant diamond / shining pearl (switch)
and so if i’m right we’ll get something like this:
black / white (ds) >>> purest black (?) / sterling white (?) (???)

Unovan Ace Trainer
Decide to draw my favorite design of the Ace Trainer from Pokémon.
…Lacey looks a little like Yancy, no?
From the postgame of Black and White 2. She forms a pseudo-relationship after the protagonist returns an item to her-specifically the male protagonist, because Game Freak were cowards.
The resemblance is probably not significant, but I would like to at least bring Yancy and Pokémon postgames further into the spotlight. Also, I like her and really want to find a legitimate White 2 game
I decided to do character study on black and white's main characters and their rivals. I also did the rest of the league and Ghetsis but I think I might post that separately. I think the next character study I'll do will be on sun and moon and ultra sun and moon.
Anyways I think they're all the right amount of traumatized :)
PKMN Black - Ansy
One more highlights post before going back to our regular schedule of Diamond x Pearl REWRITE (& please excuse the slight style changes through these lol, as I made some of these a year or two ago, while others I made leading up to posting DxP REWRITE on my Instagram parasol_lady_ansy).
As I said on Ansy’s timeline, BW was a very coming-of-age story for Ansy, maybe the most impactful for her character as a whole. It was her first official Pokémon journey, as her very first one through Kanto was cut short (see timeline), leaving her with PTSD. Enter Rain, her then-service Eevee (now Vaporeon!) - she was given to Ansy right before she moved to Unova to help adjust to life there.
She met all kinds of friends, enemies, rivals, & even a mysterious Champion from another region. This is when she first met Ingo & Emmet (they were about 19, brand new Subway Bosses, while she was 15). Skyla was about 16, & still working on her pilot license where she can fly industrial planes (like she does in BW2), but can fly small recreational aircraft like ultralights. Cynthia was also aged down to a teenager, though older than Ansy (looking forward to when she appears in DxP REWRITE 🖤)
The last fight against N, then Ghetsis, was a big turning point for her, as that was the first time since the incident in Kanto that she finally allowed herself to be angry, synching perfectly with the fiery white dragon Reshiram. She & they have a very deep bond, & while she didn’t catch them (Ansy befriends Legendaries instead of catching them), they would come when called wherever she was in Unova. 🪽
