Fankids With Gold/Silver Demo Pokémon: Carmen & Gal

Carmen and Animon

As mentioned in my previous post, somehow all of Ethan’s children end up with pokemon from the demo. In Carmen’s chase, she has a similar experience to Draco when a previously assumed to be normal pokemon suddenly evolves into something… odd. Carmen caught her Ditto, Squishy, completely by chance. The little pink blob someone managed to disguise itself as her other pokemon for an entire day before Carmen realized something was up. She was quite embarrassed when she realized what was going on, and ended up catching the Ditto since it seemed to like hanging around. Carmen’s not a competitive trainer, so her pokemon mostly help her with her field work for her junior research program. Squishy is good at getting close to wild pokemon thanks to its transformation abilities, and also just proves to be a good friend to have around.

Carmen never expected Squishy was unusual in any way until one time she and Rosemary were exploring the old Kanto Power Plant, hearing rumors that there might be rare pokemon there. The Ditto found a Metal Coat somewhere in the abandoned building and seemed very pleased with it. Carmen paid Squishy no mind until she saw the telltale glow of evolution out of the corner of her eye. She grabbed Rosemary and asked her what was going on as the two girls watched in shock as Squishy… Evolved??? Ditto were definitely not meant to do that. And when the evolution was complete… well… Squishy sure looked different. Poor Carmen was so confused by what had just happened while Rosemary was squealing about how Carmen had a “real cryptid pokemon” right under their noses this whole time.

The mystery of Squishy is solved yet again by Noelle, when Carmen sends pictures of her new pokemon to her parents, who then send them on to Noelle as she’s the one who would know about weird pokemon. Noelle confirms that Carmen’s got herself an Animon, but unlike with Draco and his Kingdra, the entire family is stumped as to how this came to be apart from simple luck. In the end, this seems to really just be a coincidence. Carmen was initially a bit wary of how different Squishy was, but when it became clear her pokemon was its same mischievous self, she warmed to the idea of having a unique evolution very quickly.

Gal and Madame

Now Gal, as the youngest, got to see all their older siblings find themselves with unique pokemon from other worlds, and they were certainly jealous. If Noelle and Draco and Carmen and Dad got cool pokemon, they should as well! So not long after setting out on their journey, Gal makes it their mission to find an alternate world pokemon. They ask Noelle for a list of ones she knows aren’t native to this world before setting out, using it as a guide so they’d know if they met any potential teammates.

Along their journey, Gal meets many interesting pokemon, catches some, makes many friends and fond memories… but doesn’t see a single “Faller pokemon” as their family has taken to calling these lost pokemon from other worlds (borrowing Noelle’s Interpol Lingo). They’re beginning to give up hope when, while in Kalos, they start getting followed around by a Farfetch’d. At this point, Gal has a nearly full team of strong and beautiful pokemon and has no time or patience for this little drab bird. It’s Morgan who eventually convinces them to let the cute little guy tag along, since how could anyone resist those sweet eyes. Gal gives in for their boyfriend, but makes it clear they’re only begrudgingly allowing this. Nonetheless, Farfetch’d worms his way into Gal’s heart and eventually they have to admit they have some affection for the bird. It’s not long after this that Gal decides to start training Farfetch’d a bit, since even if he’s never going to be a particularly conventional contest star or gym battle ace… might as well get him up to par with the rest of Gal’s pokemon.

It’s during this training that the unbelievable happens. Farfetch’d starts evolving and Gal can’t believe their eyes. Did their superior training regimen somehow unlock new, never-before-seen, potential in their pokemon?! They knew they were good but this is on a whole different level! And when they see Farfetch’d’s new form, they feel in their heart that this was an evolution just for them. A beautiful swan. This is the True Ugly Duckling Tale and Gal is the Prince and it’s perfect and meant to be. It’s Morgan who actually proposes that Gal’s little bird friend might have been one of those Faller pokemon all along rather than this being some kind of miracle, since even Gal’s not good enough to create new evolutions out of nowhere. Farfetch’d’s evolution is soon confirmed by Noelle to be one of the pokemon from her homeworld and marks the birth of a new dream team as Gal and Madame take the world by storm.

  • Maia Stone-Lu (Steven/Wallace’s daughter)

If you still accept the 10 facts request… What about Anise?!

10 Facts About Anise von Schwan

  1. She was a surprise. Prior to Korrina becoming pregnant with her, she and Chili had had a more casual relationship, closer to “rivals with benefits” than anything. But, once they had a baby on the way, they decided to try and be a more proper couple for their baby’s sake. Chili and Korrina basically have a shotgun wedding before Anise is born, much to the amusement of Cilan and Cress and the exasperation of Siebold. It was a whirlwind romance but they’re still happily married to this day. Anise likes to brag about how she helped her parents “get a move on and get married already”.
  2. When she was a child, Anise got some teasing about being fairly short for her age (though she grew to be slightly above average height later on), so in order to “fight the haters” developed an aggressive personality, literally jumping on other kids who made fun of her for any reason.
  3. Anise first discovered roller derby at school. Her gym class had a roller skating unit and when her gym teacher saw how enthusiastic and… aggressive she was about skating, she recommended Anise look into roller derby. Anise had learned to skate from Korrina and enjoyed it, but a contact sport for roller blading?! This is the perfect sport for her.
  4.  Rather than pick her starter in Kalos, Anise instead met her starter, Tepig, while on a trip to Unova. Her family ran into Professor Juniper unexpectedly while visiting other former Plasma members in Driftveil. Aurea was in the city since some starting trainers wanted to pick one of the classic Unova starters, but in the face of a very enthusiastic teen making her decision, the timid Tepig ended up running away, straight into Anise who was wandering around the city. It was love at first sight and Anise ended up taking Tepig home with her (the other newbie trainer found her own partner, don’t worry!)
  5. Anise loves spicy food and will put hot sauce on almost anything she eats. She’s actually started carrying a couple small bottles of hot sauce in her bag to bring out during mealtimes.
  6. Anise argues a lot with her older brother, Ginger, but at the same time he’s also her partner in crime, doing all sorts of dangerous things with her that their parents (well, more Korrina than Chili) might frown upon. A favorite game is Ginger, who is very tall, picking up Anise by her legs and swinging her around in circles until they both get dizzy and fall over.
  7. Anise initially travels on her journey with Cassia, who decided to start her adventure in Kalos since she liked the region after going there on vacation and wanted to travel somewhere different than her usual haunts of Sinnoh and Johto. After they part ways, however, Anise decides to travel in Unova, wanting her starter to see the region she was born in, while Cassia wants to go back to Sinnoh to further her studies in her Junior Research program. Thus, Anise decides to travel with family friend Cyril, who is three years younger and also wanted to head to Unova after travelling through Kalos. It’s during these travels that she meets Aster, her eventual boyfriend.
  8. When Cyril goes missing in Unova, Anise stays in the region, teaming up with her brother to try and find out what happened to him, however when this doesn’t come to anything, she ends up going back home and returning to her derby team. When Cyril finally is found and brought home years later, Anise makes sure to visit him and keep him company since he’s not up to leaving the house as much.
  9. Anise is the reason Verbena wears pigtails. She was determined to match with her cousin and would do Verbena’s hair every time they saw each other to the point Verbena just wears that hairstyle as default now.
  10. One of Anise’s dreams is to open up the Striation Gym again alongside her cousins Verbena and Rosemary. She bothers the two of them constantly about working on their plans, but she’s determined that the three of them can make their dream a reality.

hhhhhhhhhh flash games
I wanted to try and make a fankid for every hair color they had available in this game but I ran out of images so this is Part 1 of 2 I guess

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. 

Gingerbreadshipping!! :D (I <3 the ship name)

How they first met: They first met when Jasmine was on a trip to Kalos to visit a botany convention. At the time she was studying herbal medicine, so she was interested in learning more about plants there. She was quite overwhelmed by both the crowds and being in a foreign country. Cress was at the same convention to learn more about cooking ingredients (at this point he and his brothers were living in Kalos) and was also feeling a bit overwhelmed by the crowds, so when he saw Jasmine looking lost he suggested they team up so that the event was less intimidating for the both of them. They became quite good friends over that weekend and exchanged numbers when it was over and Jasmine had to return back to Johto.
Where their first date was: A few years after they first met, Jasmine came to further her study of medicine in Kalos for a few months, a decision in no small part influenced by her continued correspondence with Cress. The two, at this point, had had quite a bit of romantic tension in their messages and the last time they had met up when Cress visited Johto. However, this trip to Kalos by Jasmine was their first time going on a proper date. Chili and Cilan both made plans to be out of the apartment for the evening and Cress invited Jasmine over for a home cooked meal. It was very romantic and both had a really good time just talking to each other and enjoying some good food.
When they had their first kiss: They had their first kiss on the first date. Jasmine insisted on helping Cress clean up after the meal and as they did the dishes together, she realized how domestic the whole scene felt and just how right it felt as well. Without really thinking, she shuffled over to Cress and leaned against him, when he leaned back, she stood on her tiptoes and they kissed. 
Who cooks: Cress, obviously, since he’s the professional chef of the couple. He likes to experiment with flavors and techniques and often tries out new recipes on his family, which can lead to hit-or-miss meals sometimes. For the most part though, all his new dishes are well-received and Jasmine and their kids are always excited to see what Cress can come up with.
Who proposed: Cress proposed to Jasmine! The two had been dating for a while and Cress had moved to Johto to live with Jasmine about a year earlier. He felt like his life and hers were in the place where marriage seemed right. He had found a job at a restaurant in Olivine and had plans to open up his own place eventually and Jasmine had started a herbal medicine clinic on the side of being Gym Leader. The proposal was nothing public or showy; Cress made an extra nice meal for him and his girlfriend, then brought out dessert, a small orange sponge cake (Jasmine’s favorite) with ‘Will you marry me?’ written in icing across the top. Jasmine was so touched that she didn’t even want to eat the cake at first and spoil the message. After a bit of happy tears they did end up eating the cake, and to this day eating orange sponge cake makes Jasmine extra happy.
The dominate one: Cress. In public, both he and Jasmine seem quite mild-mannered and quiet, though while that’s fairly close to Jasmine’s true personality, behind closed doors, Cress can be very dominant and bold. Probably thanks to his past as a member of the Shadow Triad, he’s not afraid to take control and Jasmine quite likes that side of her husband, even if admitting so makes her blush.
Their favorite pastime together: One of their favorite family activities for the weekend or holidays is going to the beach. It doesn’t matter what season it is, they’ll go at least once a month. Cress enjoys swimming when the weather permits, otherwise he likes to explore tidepools and the like. Jasmine isn’t as much of a swimmer, but she enjoys relaxing by the water with a good book or watching her husband and kids play in the water. She also likes to walk along the beach and find shells, sea glass, and other pretty things washed up by the waves. She keeps them all in glass jars around the house and sometimes will craft with them. An amusing incident (or incidents as it happened more than once) is the time Cress found a Clauncher in a tidepool, very lost and far from home. Cress wanted to cook it, since Clauncher is a delicacy while Jasmine was horrified he would even think of doing such a thing and insisted they take in to her clinic until they could find a way to get back to its natural habitat. 
Who kissed who first: Jasmine kissed Cress!
Who is the flirt: Cress, though usually not in public. When in private, however, he loves to fluster Jasmine with flirty comments.
Who is the romantic: Both of them are about equally romantic, but in different ways. Cress’ idea of romance is usually food-related, while Jasmine prefers the type of thing found in her favorite romance-novels – rose petals everywhere, candles, hot tubs, etc. 
Who wakes up first: Old habits die hard and Cress is still a very early riser since it was drilled into him during his Plasma days. All the same, he has to get up early for work anyway, so he doesn’t mind all that much. Jasmine prefers to sleep in a little bit, though still gets up pretty early. Of course, their kids did not all inherit that ‘morning person’ trait, so when the triplets are at home Jasmine and Cress try to keep quiet in the mornings so as not to disturb them until it’s time for their wakeup call. 
Who comforts who the most: Jasmine is somewhat prone to anxiety, so Cress does his best to make sure she’s never too nervous about something and helps her calm down if she gets overwhelmed with nerves. However, Cress still has lasting issues from his old life in Team Plasma and before that, which can manifest in nightmares or panic attacks. Whenever he’s upset, Jasmine does her best to make sure he knows he’s safe and that she’s there for him, using the tips she learned specifically to make her husband feel most at ease and comfortable whenever his past comes back to haunt him. The two really do end up comforting each other quite often.
The cuddler: Somewhat related to the above answer, both Cress and Jasmine are quite the cuddlers. They enjoy physical contact with each other and it helps them feel calm. They’re not very publicly affectionate, but they will often hold hands or Jasmine will be on Cress’ arm when they’re out and about. At home, they are often found cuddling – Jasmine especially likes to sit in Cress’ lap so they can hold each other.
The big spoon: Cress is quite a bit taller than Jasmine, so he typically fills this role. Often, Jasmine will also sleep facing him, so that she can hold him as well.
