Artwork - Teddursa baby girl

In recognition of my daughter's arrival, I am toying with some art release. Ro_arts from fiverr was the artist who created this and they had a very quick turn around for this!

I will be posting this on the free websites as well for free use!

Artwork - What is this a clean and jerk for Jigglypuff?

And here we have Trixie contemplating the weight of her girlfriend, Rachel. Why that precise weight? Who knows? 

this artwork was done by Dearluna and I think they have a very amusing idea of 'a lot of weight' For Trixie this is her warm up reps!

I'm toying with an idea of more pictures of the Gym trainers of Pewter, would there be any interest in that? If so what scenes or people would you like to see?

Hard Enough - Chapter 195 - Job offer

After Sabrina’s and I’s dalliance, I showered and wandered back to the Gym only to be directed to the front fair-ground area. Apparently we’d been a bit too successful with our Tough showcase and it wasn’t advised to hold a party there any more. Thankfully we had the pavilions set up already.

I entered the front pavilion, to find a very loud party well and truly underway.

Monique must have been waiting for me, as she stood from watching the chaos that was unfolding with a ...

Hard Enough - Chapter 194 - Toughing it out!

My fingers itched and my heart thundered in my chest. My eyes remained locked with Sabrina and I knew I was smiling.

For her part, Sabrina was standing with her head tilted in a slightly aloof manner. I knew it to be the method she used when facing trainers, but it was also her ‘battle’ face. She didn’t grin or become overly emotive.

Not outwardly.

With a Psychic, emotional control when you fought was important.

That didn’t stop me from picking up the glint in ...

Artwork - Munchlax and Gible

A cute scene for the two hungry little jolly pokemon that frequent Brock's house! This artwork and the line art is from Ryot_Ryot. 

As always please send me any thoughts you have for prompts or artists!

Hard Enough - Chapter 193 - Throw down showdown!

“So what are you going to call your new move?” I asked when I was done seriously congratulating Greta on her performance.

Greta, as she’d been doing since the end of the match it seemed, continued to blush. “I don’t really know, I honestly just thought the move up on the fly,” she said.

I whistled. “You realise that only makes it even more impressive if you can have Bulb… I mean Ivysaur to whip it out like that,” I said. Great flashed me a look only for ...

Hard Enough - Chapter 192 - The Beauties and the Brutes of Contests

“—on the red side we have Solidad of Pewter City! Can I get a Pewter City welcome?” roared Rachel into the microphone.

There were obviously enough locals, or those at least in the know, to stomp twice and clap, creating the signature welcome we’d cultivated in the Gym.

Solidad, now in a leather jacket with her hair in pigtails pumped up the crowd with her fist punching the air in time with the claps as she walked onto the stage. When she reached her podium the stomping and...

Red Riot - Chapter 17 - Red dreams

I dodged the grasping hand only to find that Akiko had used the attack to hide a punch.

It slammed into my gut despite my attempts to harden up or block her. I felt myself getting lifted off my feet before hitting the ground with a roll. When I stood Akiko waved at me to stand down, having given enough of a lesson for the moment. 

I had a moment of pride at how she shook out her hand from punching me, until the various aches and pains across my body caught up.

I collaps...

Hard Enough - Chapter 191 - Friend feuds

The next day saw me once more behind the judge’s desk with Joy and Monique.

Joy and I were wearing the same attire as yesterday but Monique had gone for an entirely different ensemble.

This time she was wearing something that had chains and buckles all over it. If she’d had a sword at her hip I’d have been tempted to call her the raid boss instead of the judge.

She seemed happy with the looks she was getting so at the very least she was making a statement.

Hard Enough - Chapter 190 - Intermission

The judging might have been over but that didn’t mean my work as the host was done. Monique and Nurse Joy got to relax, albeit Monique did so by sweeping into the various large pavilion tents that had been set up for people to wine and dine while rubbing shoulders with the big names of Pewter City. Nurse Joy allowed herself to be tugged along into the tents to have more than a few people compliment her on her dress.

I considered it for a moment before turning away. I’d need to make ...

Artwork - The Storm Speaks

Turns out a recently released free chapter inspired Ozlyk. 

I got their permission to post this by them. I think it's pretty epic.

Artwork - Puny!!!

Another of Ryot_ryot's artworks that I prompted them for. I rahter like what they have done even if it wasn't precisely how it went down in the story Xp. I have included their line art for this for people interested in how it looks without the colours. I might start doing this more often in future!

As always, send in any prompts for art or artworks that you have and I will have a look over them!

Hard Enough - Chapter 189 - Tough act to follow!

When Solidad stepped up people leaned forward, a hush falling over the crowd. They were aware that this was the hometown girl for this event.

Rachel made use of the quiet to hype up said hometown heroine. “Oh! Here’s the first of our experienced Coordinators stepping up today! High hopes are resting on this lass! Let’s see what Solidad can do!”

Solidad stepped forward with a long coat and sturdy boots when she took to the stage she effected a bow to us at the judg...

Hard Enough - Chapter 188 - The Pewter contest

A throng of people made their way through Pewter towards the Gym.

The gym itself had taken on a fairground-like appearance with large tents for groups of entertainers, and stalls for people selling local goods, services and produce all aligned in rows.

I could see more than a few people lining up to get their pokemon pampered, primped or just generally pandered to before the contest began. Others were selling fruits or natural aides to improve a pokemon’s appearance. Locals had ...

Hard Enough - Chapter 187 - The questgiver

The match against Scarlet happened on Thursday. This thankfully allowed me an entire day to relax after the match.

With how hectic being a Gym Leader could be, I probably didn’t need it, but it was damn nice to have. I got the chance to wake up with Sabrina laying on me. Sadly she never liked to have her sleep interrupted beyond me simply getting up.

So I didn’t poke her or try to get handsy. She never liked it and usually banished me from the bedroom with a glare. Better to a...

Hard Enough - Chapter 186 - Just awards

Celadon was well known for its etiquette. They didn’t stomp their feet, or whistle or clap too much.

Our victory roar changed that. It demanded that people stand and cheer for us.

It compelled them in a way that words never would.

They rose, to cheer and applaud, so they too could be heard in the maelstrom of noise we unleashed.

A pair of nurses sprinted in from the side with another pair of Chansey accompanying them. Each Chansey had a large bed that I recognised as...

Art by Dearluna that showcases Brock's new look for the upcoming Pewter Contest!

Went for something that is tough but intelligent!

Hard Enough - Chapter 185 - The other shoe

“So I think you’ll look good in some dark, more close-cropped colours,” said Yolanda, emphatically.

“Oh, yeah thanks,” I said. I nodded along, smiling at Yolanda’s choice to ‘keep me distracted’. Namely, to take me shopping. She’d decided on a darker-tone series of clothes with short black t-shirts with v-cuts and simple collars. With Trixie’s training, I was fit enough that most clothes like this looked good.

Black, I knew from experience to be a bit of an eas...

Hard Enough - Chapter 184 - Advancing quickly

“I always knew?” Yolanda read aloud.

She lowered the gossip magazine that had a photo of myself and Walker shaking hands after our match. His face was bare to the world. In the corner of the front page, a picture of Falkner was shown looking towards the reader with the quote hanging above him.

He looked remarkably composed.

I scratched my chin and nodded. “Even if he didn’t know, that’s a good call he made. I have to give it to him, I’m impressed he went for that...

Artwork - Camping trip

Really happy with how this artwork turned out. It's another of Ryot_ryot's and very well done!
It doesn't show everyone but it's a good addition to the Mt Moon trip where Link earns his name.

As always leave any prompts or artist suggestions you might have! I'll try to work them in!

Hard Enough - Chapter 183 - Interlude - From different eyes

Empress stared at the crowd of people.

She’d never seen so many people all at once in one place.

She’d watched the television that Brock had set up, but that was different, the people didn’t have the scents, the feel, the noise of the crowd.

She’d even observed the Gym entrance from atop the plateau and seen people coming and going, but never in such numbers.

The tribe had been only a few hundred and while they had been larger than her they’d never clustered ...

Hard Enough - Chapter 182 - Bird v Rock

Titan skidded from the back of the field to the front, roaring as he did so. His passing caused the field to be torn up and dust and rock shards to be hurled into the air.

He twisted about, making sure the entire stadium knew he was present and staking his claim.

Masked Owl faltered, and I grinned. “Titan!” I barked while urging him through our bond for Rock Throw. Titan‘s tail swung around and a wave of rock soared into the air at the stunned Pidgeot.

“Move!” scre...

Red Riot - Chapter 16 - Red homecoming

The mists around Kirigakure had lightened.

I and several others stared at the revealed harbour as our ship cut its way through the water towards its designated berth. On the street, people called out and a general air of celebration seemed to have swept through the people.

The fact that we could see the street despite it being hundreds of metres past the harbour was just… weird.

I glanced behind me towards the circling mists that orbit Kirkgakure, making it difficult to na...

Artwork - Happy Holidays!

This was actually a much later commission but with Ryot_ryot knocking it out of the park I felt like this was one of the better pieces to put up this weekend! Hope everyone has a good, if not gentle holiday that allows some rest and recovery!

Hard Enough - Chapter 181 - Haunting moments and feathery situations

“Trainers! Are you ready?” called today’s referee.

I nodded, my hand fixed on my pokeball.

I’d analysed his team which consisted of Haunter, Dusclops, Mismagius, Sableye, Golbat, Vileplume, Cacturne, Crawduant, Shiftry, Parasect, Beedrill, Venomoth, Ninetails, and Scyther.

I had dismissed most of the bug pokemon from contention. He’d have been mad to send them against me. The same was true for Golbat but he’d used that in his match yesterday along with Dusclops a...

Hard Enough - Chapter 180 - Sound off! One, two!

“Trainers! Are you ready?” shouted the referee.

Across from me, Carlos clenched his hand hard around his pokeball. A look of solid determination met my gaze and I felt my respect for him increase with how he didn’t falter.

I held a pokeball in my hand, ready to throw. The referee dropped the flags. I missed both the command to release and begin, to the cheering of the crowd.

It didn’t matter, I knew to react and not wait to hear the actual command by now.

Artwork - Why?! Cranidos meets Gible

A fun little art piece that I thought up with Ryot_ryot a while back! I had to post up a few options for them this month due to christmas being a crunch period for most artists so some of the prompts might take a while but I will try and get through to them!

Please continue to offer up prompts for artists or scenes that you'd love to see!

Hard Enough - Chapter 179 - Tournament time!

Breakfast on Monday was slightly different than usual. The family were still eating at around the same time, and I had a few newspapers laid out which I was reading through to keep abreast of the latest developments regarding Lance’s announcement.

On a local newspaper, the headline read ‘Vote of no confidence passes for Mayor Jonathan! Time for a change!’.

Jennifer had kept me informed of this and I’d happily told her to go for the throat when news broke. Mayor Jonathan ha...

Hard Enough - Chapter 178 - Steven Stone v Drake

The sound of growling and gnashing teeth made me stop what I was doing.

“Gible!” growled Gible.

“Munch!” said Munchlax.

I gaped openly, watching as Munchlax, who was trying to carry a platter of food, had to dance around a leaping Gible. The little baby pokemon’s jaws snapped menacingly each time it missed the platter.

After the fifth attempt, he landed rather heavily before he paused. He gave a whine of annoyance for a few seconds with his little limbs pumpi...
