i'll be starting off w them since they were the first ones i designed :nod:...

touya and N were firstly created for an AU of mine involving them reuniting a few more years after bw1. however the process of giving pokemon protags a silly outfit and a personality of their own was simply too fun 🥳🥳 therefore escalating into me having designs for gen2-gen9 protags!!

but thats enough context and yapping !!! i'm still really new to this blogging (?) activity so I hope this manner of posting is alright :nod:

-> Touya !!!! he claimed the title of unova's champion right before hopping on the nearest bird and flying off to try and find N.

i'm really fond of the idea that he used to have the resting locked in expression he shows in his sprites and battle subway official art, but after leaving behind any kind of duty he had, became a lazy bundle of joy. he still locks in for battles, i think that'd look pretty cool.

-> Touko !!!! i've seen a lot of people portraying touko as a battle-thirsty vessel of raw strength and i think thats wonderful. when thinking about her design i really wanted a red-ish character that would use their hard earned aura to show off. i really dont know what's going on in her head and i very much love that.

when it comes to her story, she took on the role of a stand-in champion for whenever touya was outside the region, but at some point got grew tired of it and flew off to train in the Isle of Armor Dojo :nod: She's serious about that aura farming :nods:

-> when it comes to N, he's still very close to canon!!! he still leaves the region in bw1 to experience other regions, but i wanted to include a small detail i noticed while reading the FAT (heroes of fire and thunder) manga; that being N being a lot more influenced by pokemon that were hurt by their trainers, to the point of getting a bit emotional while telling Shin about it :nods:

it came to me in a dream that his design could be tied to those classic aircrafts, and an oomf of mine pointed out he reminded them of the little prince :nod: basically he's got the aircraft hyperfixiaton now (they're really cool i dont blame him :nod:)... That being said I hope he's really cozy in that outfit, i enjoyed how it came out 🥳
