Hard Enough - Chapter 322 - Message in a bottle

I was a bit sad that I didn’t get to catch the Regi Trio but being allowed to take Regirock was already a big win in my books. 

Although getting to play games with Mew was also an unexpected benefit. 

“Right so it’s right, left, right, left, cross slap, spin, double hand and then explosion!” I said showing Mew how to play patticake while Sanchez showed off to the side with the pair of them rapidly going through the routine I’d outlined. 

“Mew!” c...

Hard Enough - Chapter 321 - Legendary Perspective

Mewtwo could sense the two pokemon marching into the cavern of wood they’d walked into. 

It surprised him that Sabrina hadn’t noticed them until they’d gotten closer. Was this merely a sign of deficiency? Of how inherently weaker she was as a human?

Mewtwo held back a sigh. 

He might have assumed that, months ago, but with how often he had exchanged information with the girl he had come to recognise certain tells in her bearing. 

When she slumped h...

Hard Enough - Chapter 320 - Surprises abound!

We continued on to the centre of the root system and slowly the marvel of the crystalline caverns began to wear on us.

Or at least it did for Sabrina and me. Mewtwo continued to float along while Lucario had continued to tirelessly run and jump across the landscape without looking any worse for wear.

Watching him move like this was giving me some ideas about marathon training regimes for my pokemon to change things up. Especially if we ever ended up getting involved in any Sinnoh-...

Hard Enough - Chapter 319 -The Tree of Beginning roots and all

The upbeat attitude that had carried over from the previous night lasted for all of an hour before we reached a small slope that led out of the valley we’d been walking through.

Lucario speeding up was the first sign that something was off. 

He got within twenty metres of the slope and gave the rocky formation standing adjacent to it a long look. Then his whole posture shifted, going from tense to outright twitching with anger.

Ah, I recognised this area from the movi...

Hard Enough - Chapter 318 - Legendary throwdown!

Regirock lumbered forward, undaunted by Titan standing in its way. Each step caused loose rocks to bounce into the air only for a trail of small rocks to be left in its wake. 

The eyes blinked on and off like a panel of lights in an odd sequence, chirps and beeps ringing out as it moved. I watched those carefully, knowing that at any moment it could unleash a Hyper Beam.

A slight hitch in the rocks and a prickling down my spine drew my attention to where it had walked.

Hard Enough - Chapter 317 - Journey to the Tree of Beginning

I hadn’t gotten a chance to wander around the Cameran Castle, so I hadn’t had any chances to seek out the various crystals that had a lot of uses in the movie. 

That being said, as soon as we started walking through the forest I started to notice small veins of them popping up every now and then. I paused a few times and recorded images of them in nature along with taking a few samples.

I kept a close eye on them, however as while they were currently blue, I recalled that...

Artwork - Link and Zelda... I mean Chansey!

This was one of the artwork prompts that I was able to get made up!

What's people's thoughts? I've typically kept the named pokemon only to Brock's Elite team. should I just call Chansey Zelda... or would Midna fit better?

Hard Enough - Chapter 316 - Rota history reborn!

Dinner with the royal mother-daughter pair could have easily ended up being a rather stilted affair, with Sabrina’s “cousin” never reappearing to show his face. 

However, both queens took this in stride without it apparently bothering them. I decided not to broach the issue lest they prove to be merely waiting to pounce on the topic.

The dining room, like everything in the castle that I’d seen so far, was grandiose to a level that I hadn’t seen anywhere else in my l...

Hard Enough - Chapter 315 - Jousting in Rota!

Trumpets blared out as banners flapped in the wind on what was a perfect day to be out and about. 

The Knights competing in the joust rode their trusty steeds through the streets as crowds cheered and waved small tokens. Flower petals rained down from windows overlooking the knights.

At the side of each knight, a faithful squire marched with their knight’s banner held high.

For most people, that meant that they had a young boy marching on their sides.

However, n...

Hard Enough - Chapter 314 - The Kingdom of Rota

Despite already having many plans in place, I still had to wrap some things up and make plans before I could depart to the Kingdom of Rota.

I had to sit Lola and Flint down and tell them where I was going and what I was going to do.

“Oh? That’s a shame. And I only just got home! You’re already breaking the family up again!” Lola simpered into Flint’s shoulder.

“It’s not the same,” I said firmly so as to shut that line of thought down as quickly as I could. View Post

Hard Enough - Chapter 313 - New Plans

I sat behind my desk and smiled into the camera in a manner that had grown to be second nature. 

“Hello everyone! As you might be aware, the Pewter Gym has had several interactions with the delegates, which is part of what is known as the Trinity Nations Accord. This is made up of, as the name implies, three nations. Those being—” I worked through the brief press release that would be given out to the public, both via news channels and on our own Pokenet page which had tons o...

With the timing of this artwork dropping I now have the head canon of this being how Sabrina and Erika go dress shopping. Anyone who comes with her must have a weapon on them!

Hard Enough - Chapter 309 - Hard Lines

The quarantine housing that they’d given to Flint and Lola was merely a house near the beachfront of Fuchsia that was isolated. It had a rather nice deck but it was otherwise nondescript.

I suspected that it was actually a retreat for Lance in truth as there hadn’t ever really been a need for proper quarantine sites. 

Not with the power of pokemon healing. Still, people had seen the sense in using it as an excuse to keep Lola from escaping and for a few days it had worked...
