· Leave a comment ·

Hoenn:
(Same as before)
 – Greta Hwang
 – Lucy Seol
 – Tucker Heath
(New)
 – May Asagi: Runs the ‘Battle Stage’, which is similar in setup to the battle portions of pokémon contests. Her title is ‘Stage Princess May.’
 – Gina Seaver-Huo: Facility currently unknown.

Sinnoh/Johto: 
(Same as before)
 – Palmer Barnes
 – Thorton Matsubara
 – Dahlia Rebreanu
(New)
 – Harper Montfort: Was a Frontier Brain previously, but took 5 years off to be home in Unova for his children’s pokémon journeys, being temporarily replaced by Dahlia. When he returns, Argenta decides to retire and Dahlia takes her place, becoming a full-fledged Frontier Brain. Harper runs the ‘Battle Casino’, where trainers make bets on the outcome of their matches based on self imposed conditions. Winning the bet results in a bonus in the next round, while losing it, even if the trainer wins the battle, results in a penalty. His title is ‘Casino King Harper.’
 – Fortune Heath: Facility currently unknown.

What would happened if Grimsley did gave Hymnia to fulfill the bet?

Nothing good that’s for sure. 

However, it would have been nearly impossible for things to get to that point. Grimsley’s sister, Diana, was already very suspicious of her brother’s motives. Despite saying that he was going to be giving his baby up for adoption, he was cagey about the exact details of what agency he was working with and about the situation in general. If he hadn’t come to her first asking for help, Diana would have pressed her brother for information until he spilled. In this case, things would just progress roughly the same way they do in ‘canon’, with Grimsley going to Alola for about a year to help get his life in order while Hymnia is raised by her aunt and mother. 

In the very slight chance that Grimsley did manage to give her away he would very likely regret his actions enough to ask for help then. Champion Iris would likely get involved and, as in ‘canon’, the criminal ring would have been apprehended and Hymnia would have been tracked down and rescued. In this scenario, it’s possible that Grimsley might not ever get full custody of her, in which case Hymnia would be raised by Shauntal, or at least her father would have taken more time to help himself than the year he does in ‘canon.’ 

If somehow all of these scenarios didn’t happen and Hymnia was permanently sold off to fulfill her father’s bet however, then she likely would have suffered a terrible fate. Many people want to use mages for nefarious ends and, as a baby essentially sold on the black market, she could have ended up dead, raised to a be tool and used for her powers, or any other number of grim fates. In all likelihood however, this wouldn’t have happened. There are too many factors that prevented Grimsley from giving her up, from his own conscience to the interference of his family, so in the end anything that could have happened to her is just speculation. It’s something Hymnia thinks about on occasion, but since she avoided that fate she tends not to dwell on it.

Who are Keagan and Kantele (Keith/Kate and Kellyn/Rhythmi’s kids respectively)?

I’m going to confess that my Pokemon Ranger fankids are all really underdeveloped as a whole, but I’ll share what I do have for these two.

Keagan – A hotshot young Ranger who wants to follow in his parents’ footsteps and become a famous Top Ranger one day. He’s impatient, boastful, and often overconfident, but his heart’s in the right place and he really does wish to help people and pokemon with his work. His partner pokemon is a Shinx who is just as eager as her ranger and has a habit of going a bit wild with her thunder bolts during (and outside of) assists. Keagan is stationed at the Vientown Ranger Base currently. He has Keith’s auburn hair and Kate’s blue eyes. I chose the name Keagan so he could have a ‘K’ name like both his parents. Keagan means "descendant of Aodhagán", which itself means “little fire”, suiting his fiery personality.

Kantele – Also an ambitious young Ranger, but much more reserved than her rival Keagan. Kantele believes that with a calm demeanor and plenty of determination she’ll be able to become a Top Ranger before he does. At the same time, her reservation can also lead to hesitation and she can spend too much time figuring out a plan instead of acting and waste precious moments in an emergency. In truth, she and Keagan compliment each other well and are often paired for missions even if both of them hate this. Her partner pokemon is a Chatot who likes to drive Keagan mad by mimicking him. Her hair is light brown, a shade in-between her parents’ colors, and she has Kellyn’s blue eyes. She is named after a traditional Finnish string instrument both to match the ‘K’ theme of Kellyn’s name and the ‘music’ theme of Rhythmi’s name. 

Lee/Carmen and Trias/Rosemary would make good couples.

(This was sent before I changed Lee’s name to Souji, but I’ll be referring to him as Souji in this post since it’s his new name, just fyi.)

Souji/Carmen – The old ‘dating your best friend’s brother’ relationship on Carmen’s end. Joking aside, this ship does have some really good potential. Souji is outgoing and cheerful, which would contrast nicely with Carmen who is a bit more introverted. He’d be the type to ‘sweep her off her feet’ and make her laugh with all his puns. It would be a very sweet and cutesy romance, I think, since both of them are very nice and sweet people. Souji is also pretty outdoorsy and active, so he’d love to come with Carmen on her trips to study wild pokemon in the field. Carmen would also love how Souji is a good cook and be happy to eat anything he makes for her (be it just since he felt like it or if he wants her to try out a new dish.) This relationship is also viable since the two both end up staying in Johto, Souji eventually taking over his mother’s Gym, while Carmen wouldn’t mind sticking closer to home. So I suppose this one might end up being endgame!

Trias/Rosemary – This one I’m a bit iffier on. The main issue for me is that Rosemary eventually ends up living in Unova, while Trias stays in Hoenn. As such, even if they did date, it would have to mean Trias coming to live in Unova despite his dislike of travel, or them somehow trying to make long distance work (which for them, I can’t see happening.) Personality-wise I’m not too sure either. Rosemary is quite intense and questioning, always looking for adventure and getting swept up in the moment, whereas Trias kind of hates stepping outside his comfort zone. Maybe there’s an ‘opposites attract’ appeal here that could work if the two of them had more reason to get to know each other, but as things are, they likely don’t know each other more than in passing (I don’t even know if Rosemary and Carmen travel to Hoenn in the first place) and don’t really have any reason to get to know each other further. 

So what’s the story behind Brendan, Wally and Anabel’s threesome relationship and how strong their relationship are?

Following the events of ORAS, Wally decided to hone his skills as a trainer so he wouldn’t keep lagging behind May. He ended up spending a lot more with Brendan as a result, often asking the other boy to help him train or offer advice. Over time, Brendan began to develop feelings for the sweet and determined Wally, but was always too embarrassed to confess, despite May’s continual encouragement. Eventually, Wally and May both get jobs at the Hoenn Battle Frontier as Frontier Brains, which is where Wally first meets Anabel. The two hit it off and eventually start dating, much to Brendan’s chagrin. 

While he knows he should move on, he can’t help but want to still spend time with Wally and has a bad case of pining. He’ll go visit the Battle Frontier and just stare wistfully, but feels like he can’t hang out with Wally anymore since he’s afraid he’ll end up spilling his feelings and making Wally feel bad. He just doesn’t know what to do. May eventually gets fed up with the situation and tells Wally and Anabel why Brendan is always hanging around. The couple end up having a discussion about how to best talk to Brendan about the situation, since even his best friend May can’t seem to help. It’s at this point that Wally confesses that he too had feelings for Brendan but had been afraid to confess, not that it changes how much he loves Anabel of course!

After these revelations, Anabel ends up thinking a lot about the situation. She loves Wally, but she hates to see him upset and torn about this situation. She probably would have been mad at Brendan if he had been trying to ‘win Wally back from her’ or something, but he’s clearly doing his best to respect their relationship despite his feelings, which she finds pretty admirable. Plenty of others wouldn’t be so courteous. And now that she thinks more about it… Brendan is a strong trainer, smart, she’s heard nothing but good things about him from Wally and May, and he’s not bad looking to top it all off. If Wally and Brendan really do still have feelings for each other (on top of Wally’s feelings for her), then why can’t they solve the whole problem by just all dating each other? 

She proposes this solution to Wally who is a bit surprised at the idea, but they agree to ask Brendan if he would be okay trying out this kind of relationship. Brendan is just shocked that he’s even getting this chance and agrees. Over time, they find that this dynamic really works for them. They all love each other and are all happy with their relationship. Wally eventually retires from his Frontier Brain position to take over the Petalburg Gym from Norman, while Brendan becomes a professor like his father. Between three busy jobs and the four children they end up having, there’s certainly never a dull moment in their household, but they wouldn’t have it any other way. 

May, meanwhile, likes to smugly take credit for facilitating all of this.

What was the cause of Norman and Caroline to divorced?

Anon, you got me. This was actually a plot point that I scrapped but forgot to change on the Families page. Back when L&L was less of a game-anime fusion I thought it would be interesting to have some different family dynamics, but now that May’s family is more based on her anime counterpart’s, I decided that having her parents split up didn’t make any sense, considering they have such a good relationship there. I will go change it now, so thanks for the reminder even if this probably isn’t quite the answer you were expecting.
