What’s up #pokemonswsh nation

In preparing to write #MerrittHargrave ‘s return to Spikemuth, I realized the Grunts wouldn’t be nameless NPCs to him. They’re people he’s known for years. So now every #TeamYell member is an OC for #AlwaysTheThorns 😤
#pokemon #Bskyart #OCsky #fanfic #GlazedLikeADonut
Digital sketch portraits of eight Spikemuth Punks. The only one styled to resemble the in-game model is Joshua, who is also the only named Spikemuth Gym Trainer in-game. Top row from left to right are Padraig (he/him, cis), Dafydd (he/him, cis), Joshua (he/him, trans), Liss (she/her, cis), and Ells (she/her, cis). Bottom row left to right are Thorne (they/he), Stella (she/her, trans), and Jax (he/him, cis). Stella and Jax have a label indicating that they are Besties. Black and white digital sketch portraits of ten Team Yell members / Spikemuth gym punks. Top row, from left to right: Arik (he/him, cis); Juniper (he/him, cis); Caólan [pronounced "kee-len"] (he/him, trans); Rourke, "Roar" (he/him, cis); Peter (he/him, cis). An arrow labelled with a heart connects Caólan and Roar. Bottom row, from left to right: Magnolia, "Mags" (she/her, cis); Piper (she/her, cis); Shanti (she/her, cis); Willow, "Will" (he/she/they, intersex), [strikethrough: (just looks like me, oops)] "what's in yr pants?" "not you, clearly."; Bex (they/she, trans) "Drag is everyday." "...King or Queen?" "Yes." Depictions of all eighteen Spikemuth punks made with various picrews. Punks with multiple dolls have a box drawn around everything depicting them. Padraig's box also includes two reference photos: a young Peter Murphy with his arms up over his head, and a pretty Pinterest lad reclining on an elbow.

Kpop Demon Hunters. As Mira zombie-shambles into the venue for the Saja Boys’ performance of Your Idol, another ensnared fan over her left shoulder is visible wearing a shirt that reads GWIMA. Beneath it is a stylized rendition of a fanged mouth.

20250703 💖 A Kiss, At Last

#pokemon #pokemonswsh #BedePokemon #MerrittHargrave #AlwaysTheThorns #bskyart #ocsky #GlazedLikeADonut 🍩✨
Merritt “Mer” Hargrave leans down slightly to kiss Bede on the mouth. Both blush, and Bede’s vibrant purple eyes are just barely peeking open, as though he is in the midst of letting them slip shut. There are white stars and sparkle effects behind them in Bede’s colors (pink and teal) as well as some in the foreground, haloing them both, in gold.

Face closeup and reference in thread 🤗

Digital art, Procreate. An Adult (~20) Bede poses provocatively wearing only a pink and blue pair of panties that lace closed at the hips. He looks back over his shoulder with a flirtatious smirk, as though at someone standing behind him, out of frame.

Left is teen, right is adult.

All images except that of my OC #MerrittHargrave are the official art, sourced from Bulbapedia.

Height-accurate lineup of the cast of Pokemon Sword and Shield, including my Trainer OC, Merritt. This lineup has been adjusted for the rivals to be mid to late teen, as they are in Always the Thorns.

So about this one being done… lmao

This is technically a bit of a reference to my fic with these two, “Otherworldly”.

Left side: Two bust portraits of Bede in a semirealistic style. In the upper, his bangs are heart-shaped rather than criss-crossing in the front. In the lower, his bangs criss-cross in the front to better approximate the shape of his hair in canon. In both, the lower shines in his eyes resemble hearts, as in his rare trainer card. Right side: My Pokémon SWSH OC, Merritt "Mer" Hargrave stands casually facing Bede. Dressed all in black and wearing black combat boots (improperly laced), he has long dark-auburn hair in a bun, a few strands escaping to frame his face. He has ultramarine eyes and multiple facial piercings. A bit taller than Bede, he smiles down at him, fond and unbothered. Bede, in contrast, glares up at Mer, lips pursed in a pout and his arms crossed over his chest. He wears only his white activewear and tabi-style sneakers, lacking his puffy magenta coat. Though Bede is clearly cross, he also has a light blush in his cheeks. This piece has been protected with Glaze.

So I was in my first ever car crash on Saturday. Other than the hairline fracture and the muscular/tendon based stuff and bruising, we’re both doing fine.

My mom sent me these of the #TimbersArmy #Pride2025 match #TIFO featuring the protagonist of #Celeste (2018).

I’M NOT CRYING, YOU’RE CRYING!!

I can’t tell you how grateful I am to have always, without question, felt welcome and even cherished as a queer and trans person in the north end. #RCTID
Huge banner the height of the North End of Providence Park stadium in Portland, Oregon, home of the Portland Timbers. The banner pictures Madeline, the protagonist of the game Celeste (2018), wearing a timbers green puffy jacket and a green and white striped Timbers Army scarf. She reaches over her head for a hand axe (traditional Timbers iconography) with white feathered wings. The background is broad, pixellated stripes in Trans colors. The banner reads “WE’VE OVERCOME IMPOSSIBLE BEFORE” in white letters; the drop shadow of the text advances through the rainbow. In the bottom right corner, a game rating style icon bears a letter P. Though the text is illegible, the writer supposes it is either P for Portland or P for Pride. A long black banner accompanying the Celeste Pride tifo, draped along the barrier behind the North End goal. It bears the pixellated likeness of a grey monument resembling an oversized gravestone, a character sprite beside it (ostensibly Madeline). The banner reads “This memorial dedicated to those who perished on the climb” in white text.

Merrit Hargrave, the man that you are 😫❣️

🖤 🖤 🖤

#OCsky #bskyart #Pokemon #PokemonSWSH #TrainerOC #MerrittHargrave
Digital fullbody character drawing purposefully mimicking Pokémon's style. Merritt "Mer" Hargrave is a young man (17) dressed all in black: nicely-fitted tee, skinny jeans, beat-up combat boots (pants tucked in but improperly laced on purpose), leather jacket, fingerless gloves. He has fair pink-undertone skin, ultramarine eyes, shoulder-length very dark auburn hair, multiple facial piercings, and a crooked smile. He carries a black backpack adorned with flat silver studs and wears a black leather hip-bag that straps to his right thigh; his Pokéballs are affixed to it. Only those of the first half of his team are visible (two Pokéballs and one Repeat ball). His posture is casual, his weight more on his left leg than his right. Mer's left thumb is hooked over the top edge of his belt, and his right hand is up, lowering his black-framed sunglasses so he can look over the top of them. From how his arm is lifted, a sliver of his right hip is visible between the top of his jeans and the hem of his tee. He wears a teardrop-shaped Aquamarine pendant on a silver chain around his neck. His Dynamax band is on his right wrist. The artist's mark reads: OGMadster 06 01 2025

And here’s a closeup of Bede’s eyes, just because I had way too much fun / made them UNNECESSARILY DETAILED
Closeup of Bede’s violet-purple eyes. Arguably too many individual colors have been employed. This piece has been protected with Glaze.

Here’s the other one 🤭
I should make more OC memes
Screenshot. A grey-skinned elf (Kyler Drake) dressed all in black and carrying a zweihander / slaughtersword (ffxiv dark knight weapon). He sits forward so his elbows rest on his knees. He looks forward, in 3/4 away from the camera. In white text beneath him reads: MAN Made during a PvP grind.

#WoL!KylerDrake #ffxivMemes #ffxivscreenshots #wolqotd
Kyler Drake (a grey-skinned elf with black hair) sits at the edge of the upper decks in Limsa. He wears the Riversbreath (recolored Paglth’an) Casting set, which exposes his entire back and, while seated, the top of his sculpted, updated-model ass. He’s looking away from camera. Above him in white block text reads: YOU MAY SPANK IT. Identical photo to previous, but Kyler is turned to look back over his own shoulder, his face in profile. Over him in block letters reads: ONCE.
