This happened a long time ago when Straw brought up the topic “Don’t you think Swellow looks sort of like (SPE) Maxie?”

Like, not only does this guy have a bird

He looks like the bird (Your buddy SPE Max is either drunk or badly drawn in Pokespe so have a pic of ORAS Max instead) It fits RSE/SPE better imo because of the darker red + black colors too; and the triangley design; and the smirk

So we often joke that Maxie is a swellow gijinka He is. Spread the word

Extra: It got out of control with the Archies

Current progress: I kicked Archie’s ass on Chimney and got to Lavaridge He only gave me ¥2000 for winning What a cheapo ojisan

Go Magma go

Collecting volcanic ash is fun

I hear they nerfed it in ORAS Sad

RSE and SPE Max probably do this a lot and have full flute collections They volcano nerds, why not

Hoenn is really environment-focused Even their villains are eco-terrorists

But it’s weird that you don’t see people mentioning a lot about Hoenn air quality issues (Volcanic ash can damage your lungs, man, and there’s kids who collect a lot of this stuff and ninjas hiding in them on Route 113, where there’s so much volcanic ash it looks like as if it’s snowing there) Or maybe Hoennians are beyond human to the point that they don’t have to worry about inhaling volcano ash. That’s also a possibility. (Sapphire is like a superhuman and Courtney can chop trees in SPE. Hmmmmmmm) (↑ crack HCs)

Wally’s story and Verdanturf sort of taps into the air stuff

The way the winds blow, volcanic ash is never blown in this direction.  The air is clean and delicious here. Living here should even do wonders for even frail and sickly people.

Eh. I find it a little weird that canon Maqua content doesn’t mention this at all.

SPE Courtney and SPE Maxie in a staring contest while furiously middle-fingering each other (This was during the time when Courtney was having feelings towards Ruby) ↑ I hope she gets over him

Courtnies (SPE + ORAS Courtney) hanging out Milkshakes and science museums and leader worries (“When will he stop drinking beer” “—If my calculations are correct, the Leader Maxie from my universe has a 78.4% chance of aborting his midday meal…” “You mean his lunch” “…today. And, correct.”) and stuff

Little Courtney (ORAS) is also capable of blowing bubble gum bubbles Big Courtney and Little Courtney blowing bubbles together Ye

Matt swimming

Red, but in a blue palette because Pokemon Blue exists (Or in green-ish palette because Pokemon Green also exists)

Lusamine in her teens Or Lusamine as a child

Guzma training with Hala and watches how Hau makes his grunts do work (source: this can be seen in Iki Town postgame) Hau might not be able to beat Moon and Sun, but he’s still one of those kids who finished the Island Trial Don’t underestimate him

(I finally got to talk to him and stuff)(Incoming long post!)So initially we were gonna go Asian creatures

Cyrus → nekomata, SPE Maxie → Shuten DojiDilemma: Who the hell is Ibaraki DojiIt’s definitely not SPE Archie (but Me: I want to see Archie crossdress fkajnbkjbnjkbnbb)

And then we were stuck on LysandreStraw: He’s a foreigner though(if → first four regions = Japanese)Straw: Wait, if Ghetsis is from Unova American then would he be Cthulhu or something???Straw: (Native weird creatures and stuff)Me: Holy shit Cthulhu goodMe: This is really good…Me: What is Sakaki (Giovanni) thenMe: Ebisu??Straw: Ebisu hhhhhhMe: Money is everything!! Straw: “Silver: I reject my deity PAPA!!”(yes, this is a JoJo reference)

(Ebisu is fortune god)(Gio deserves god status)

Me: And then it’s Hawaii and French myths…Straw: Guzma is probably a normal humanStraw: He wakes up one day and finds the world around him weirdMe: Then what is LusamineStraw: This is a good question(nationality = ???)

Me: Sycamore is definitely a Fairy thoughStraw: Fairy +1Me: But what is Lys(we’re back to this question again)Straw: I feel like he’s some kind of beastMe: Werewolf? Corresponds to him in game tooMe: You know, how he appears to be a good person even though his design and quotes scream Villain to the players but actually wants to destroy the worldMe: And werewolves are French (European in general)Straw: Then I choose you [werewolf]! (pokemon reference)Me: And you know how werewolves appear to be human in the day and go crazy under a full moon and stuffStraw: He’s crazy even when not under a full moon

Me: Lusamine thoughStraw: Jellyfish monster (no)Me: What about Lillie and Gladion…Straw: Her hair thoughMe: But then what the hell does that make the WormholeMe: Gensokyo?????Straw: Gensokyo hhhhhhhh(hhhhh = hahahaha in Chinese netspeak)(Also, Touhou reference)

Me: No but setting it to Gensokyo is weirdMe: I feel like she’s a human who could see all the paranormal activity and stuffMe: Magician or sthStraw: Jellyfish monster witch?Me: Why does it always have to be the jellyfish monster hhhhhhhhStraw: Because First Impressions! (Who even has jellyfish first impressions)Me: A jellyfish monster who’s learned sorcery (what), duels w/ Kitsune Maxie’s sorcery (danmaku)(Yet another Touhou reference)

And that’s pretty much it

SPE Maxie, surprisingly very good at violin No one knows this though, not even those that are closest to him He only plays to his pokemons

Steven Stone is probably possessed by a Metagross since he has the strength of one Fighting him is a bad idea

Cyrus—bad at drawing, excellent at sculpting He probably feeds murkrows The crows remember him pretty well

SPE Archie can dance can sing can voice act can do anything (Hoenn TV director!) (Also consider: Voice Actor! SPE Archie, who always deadpans when reading his script, even in the most emotional moments. He does his work well though.)

ORAS Maxie: “I…was a gamer in college” (He still kinda sorta is, the old man) This guy secretly records his grunts’ accounts and assist them in game occasionally (Tabitha: Who is this super good player??????? Confuse???)

Tabitha working out He needs to get stronger and healthier

The tradition of Aqua is to raid the birthday person with bro hugs when they wake up This also applies to ORAS Archie (“Matt… wait…!”)

Ghetsis doesn’t know how to change diapers How does he manage it, how

Saturn is never really good at battling, but at least he grooms Toxicroak well He sometimes gets a little sick doing this, though

RSE/SPE Courtney, carrying a drunk (and kinda hurt) Maxie on her shoulders because she can Camerupt is slowly trotting behind her, feeling guilty Old caveman is going to be scolded by some girl couple hours later, after he heals (“Who are you again…? Ow goddamnit” *gets flicked on the forehead hard*) Blaise and Tabitha comes over, concerned Aneki usually knows best; but today she’s troubled They kinda all huddle together The old man blinks a couple times and sighs And he hugs them back It’s an awkward atmosphere, yet warm at the same time -The drinking issue has to be dealt with. He’s gonna need his Magma family.

Groudon’s opinions on the Maxies Is partial crack

To ORAS Maxie (current Trainer): “Maxie is a good bro!” And pats his back Maxie feels like he’s going to cough out the coffee that he just had a couple minutes ago

To SPE Maxie: “You a bro too!” (Caveman grins. Maxie [ORAS] shoots him a dangerous gaze.) (His counterpart attempted to have a nice little tea beer party with the Dino. There was also something about bark-eating involved in the process. That’s not happening again for the well-being of them both.)

To RSE Maxie: (Groudon shuts up. Groudon sniffs the man. Groudon shakes his head.) “I remember you now—and I don’t really like you…” As Maxie (RSE) falls on the floor orz style and suffers from rejection, Groudon adds in a little more: “I remember having a bro in RSE…” He scratches his head. “Right! It was Pikachu!” Maxie (RSE) groans on the floor. “Pikachu is best bro!” Meanwhile, Maxie (ORAS) and Maxie (SPE) cast glances of pity towards the heartbroken Maxie (RSE).
