Pokemon Fankid Week Day 2: Pokémon Partner

Screw it I am posting both the story and a dress up I did on this website.

Tanner Sterling’s Full Profile

Clarissa is the daughter of Jimmy and Marina. Much like her father, she cares about Pokemon but she lacks his energy and much like her mother she likes cute Pokemon, singing, and dancing, she managed to learn how to put on a show while she’s battling which is something her mother taught her how to do when she was younger. However, she wasn’t exactly sure what she wanted to do as she wasn’t interested in being an idol, a coordinator, a trainer or a performer and it wasn’t until she was on a trip with her parents to the Unova region and they were in Nimbasa city for a collaboration with the Pokemon Musical where Clarissa met Elesa, Elesa saw something in Clarissa and asked Marina if she could train Clarissa to be a model and Marina didn’t mind, so long as Clarissa was safe and stayed healthy. Clarissa was nervous about it at first but she slowly started getting used to being a model alongside Elesa, she’s also got her Pokemon to model with her.

Clarissa’s main colors are purple and turquoise. From purple, she’s imaginative and creative as she’ll often make up her own songs as she’s doing something. It also represents her current status as a model and gives her the impression that she’s royalty or a noble, purple also helps her get inspiration and it represents how she likes being her own person, as such she doesn’t enjoy people assuming she’d pursue her mother’s idol career or her father’s trainer career and she hates it when someone compares her to either of her parents as such she will always try to do things her own way instead of trying to copy either of her parents. From turquoise, she’s calm, friendly and happy to just enjoy life. Turquoise also helps her recharge her spirit when she’s having a stressful day, it also represents how Clarissa doesn’t like being alone and it represents how she’s indecisive but she’s still compassionate.

Her Pokemon:

Chikorita- Chikorita is Clarissa’s starter Pokemon, she received her from Professor Elm back when she still lived in New Bark Town. Chikorita is very docile and easy-going, preferring to just relax by sunbathing. She’s also caring and supportive, she’ll often let out a scent to calm anyone around her down and Clarissa is always glad that her Chikorita does that so she’s able to calm down as she gets some preshow jitters before each show. Chikorita also greatly enjoys dressing up with Clarissa but she has to get special clothes tailored to fit her body type. She’s always glad that she got taken in by Clarissa.

Given in a Pokeball.

Ability is Overgrow.

Moves are Magical Leaf, Sunny Day, Solar Beam, Sweet Scent, Nature Power, Grass Pledge, Energy Ball, Vine Whip, Ancient Power and Grass Whistle.

Flaaffy- Clarissa caught Flaaffy back when she was a Mareep. Flaaffy is a very mild-mannered Pokemon, nothing really bothers her and if there’s one thing she likes more than relaxing with Chikorita, it’s making others happy. She’s currently one of the Pokemon that’s allowed to take pictures alongside Clarissa and she highly enjoys it. Flaaffy also enjoys looking her best and being groomed by Clarissa, she enjoys wearing different clothes for her species and posing for the camera, she’s also protective over her trainer as she’s currently one of her two teammates that evolved and the only one interested in battling a little bit so she’s the one who has to protect her trainer.

Caught in a Love Ball.

Ability is Static.

Moves are Charge, Thunderbolt, Cotton Guard, Power Gem, Magnet Rise, Signal Beam, Protect, Iron Tail, Heal Bell, and Discharge.

Phanpy- Clarissa caught Phanpy after befriending him. Phanpy is a little young but he’s still very strong for someone his size, to the point he’s able to knock anyone he tackles down to the ground and leave them dizzy and sometimes knocked out. He’s very playful but he can sometimes be rough, he’s also very energetic and it takes him a while to calm down. He doesn’t highly enjoy being a model like the others, but he likes playing with the other Pokemon and he likes helping people. The most he does is carry some things that could be really heavy due to how he’s stronger than a normal Phanpy and he’s happy to pull somethings in a cart shoulder they need to move short distances.

Caught in a Heavy Ball.

Ability is Pickup.

Moves are Defense Curl, Rollout, Slam, Earthquake, Return, Play Rough, Seed Bomb, Head Smash, Superpower, and Headbutt.

Jigglypuff- Jigglypuff had heard Clarissa singing one day and happily started to sing with her, once they were done singing together Jigglypuff pretty much begged to join Clarissa’s team simply so they can sing together again and Clarissa happily agreed. Jigglypuff is a bit of a showoff, she likes being the center of attention, Jigglypuff also enjoys having her picture taken and being dressed up with cute accessories. However, she does know that Clarissa calls the shots so she makes sure not to step over the line in case Clarissa might make her stop posing for pictures. Jigglypuff still enjoys singing with Clarrissa, they will always sing together when on their downtime.

Caught in a Moon Ball.

Ability is Cute Charm.

Moves are Disarming Voice, Rollout, Round, Hyper Voice, Flamethrower, Psychic, Dazzling Gleam, Icy Wind, Return, and Echoed Voice.

Cyndaquil- Cyndaquil was given to Clarissa not long after he hatched from an egg. Cyndaquil is the son of Jimmy’s Typlosion and was glad to be given to Clarissa. Cyndaquil is an odd case, he can be relaxed and even timid in some cases but he also can be hot-tempered when angry enough, to the point he needs to blow off some steam by sparring with Jimmy’s Pokemon or just fighting a training dummy. He doesn’t exactly understand what it means to be a model but like Flaaffy he will protect his trainer as best as he can and he will do his best to support his trainer’s dream in being a model.

Caught in a Level Ball.

Ability is Blaze.

Moves are Quick Attack, Swift, Flamethrower, Flame Wheel, Nature Power, Double Kick, Thrash, Fire Pledge, Heat Wave and Sunny Day.

Lillipup- Lillipup was the first Pokemon Clarissa caught when she stayed in Unova, she found Lillipup to be really cute and caught him after having Jigglypuff battle him. Lillipup is obedient, loyal and doesn’t cause any trouble for Clarissa or anyone else, but he’s still very helpful as such when he sees someone who needs help will go off and help them with anything they might need. He also doesn’t mind being a model for quadruped Pokemon and he’s great for finding anything lost due to his great sense of smell. He has an affection side but that’s mostly reserved for Clarissa, always licking her cheek, nuzzling against her leg or just sitting in her lap. He’s also very protective of his trainer, growling if anyone with ill-intentions approaches her and ready to bite if they try anything.

Caught in a Friend Ball.

Ability is Pickup.

My case with the others:

Now the ships I like listed here are uncategorized by any series of the main-core anime series, such as QuestShipping. This pairing between Jimmy/Kenta (Trainer Gold’s anime counterpart) and Marina (Trainer Kris’s anime counterpart) can only be seen in the Legend of Thunder anime special. While their feelings for each other are flat out obvious, it’s nice to see a main protagonist that actually responds to a girl’s feelings for him *cough* *cough*

Other examples of unlisted pairings are Flint and Lola, Brock’s parents. They’re weird bunch if you’ve seen the anime specials they were in, but their love is definitely strong as a rock. Not even redesigning the Pewter gym to a water type gym with streamers around could break this marriage. And speaking about their son... 

The case with Brock/Takeshi: Now Brock deserves a special mention for this ship-a-thon post he is always finding for new love every day with every girl his age or older he meets. Unfortunately 95% of that he gets reject and gets his ear pulled, or poison jabbed. But there is that 5% of females that do like him (he didn’t really like the younger ones back though). And out of all that liked him back, Pike Queen Lucy from Battle Frontier was my favorite one (LuckShipping). I really got mad at Max for dragging him out in the end of that episode, where we clearly see Lucy blush. What’s funny about all of this is that she probably only liked Brock because most of the Pokémon she had at home had the same eyes (e.g. Skitty, Swinub, Snorlax) as he did xD I bursted out laughing because of that scene. On the friends side of things, he was Ash’s first big bro and chef. It’s amazing to see how close they were traveling for 3 series straight (the only companion to do so). GymShipping (Brock and Misty) had some cute moments too, but mostly goofy ones (like with Max’s ear-pulling lol). Big bro Brock also applies with May when she helps him buy for traveling supplies in Hoenn, or with Dawn giving her advice to lighten up during her times of depression. WE <3 YOU BROCK, screw all the girls that rejected you!

RocketShipping / KojiMusa (Jessie/Musashi & James/Kojirō): The favorite villain ship of the series definitely has a special place here in the others section since they were basically in every series! Take that Butch & Cassidy (I kinda ship them too) with your unoriginal motto! Along with PokéShipping, this is one of the most respected older ships in the community (as it SHOULD BE for being the longest running one TO THIS DAY). I feel like they’re already a married couple discussing plans every night before going to bed on how to catch Pikachu. This also the first adult pairing I grew up loving whether they eat, argue, cheer (in Jessie’s contests and performances), or blast off together, it’s really nice to see a mature (not really if you think about it lol) pairing over the course of 20 years in this show. Favorite moment - All the episodes with Jessebelle/Rumika (James’s childhood “friend”) in it. I remember watching the first one where they introduced James parents, and actually seeing a good side of James for the very first time outside of Team Rocket. At the end of that episode is really when the ship was sold to me. James pulls Jessie aboard the Meowth balloon, and they look into each other's eyes promising to continue to live without anymore personal commitments and resume Team Rocket operations. I’m sure hardcore RocketShippers loved that scene as much as I did. Unfortunately because of that sweet moment, they forgot about Meowth who was still in the ground running to the balloon as the episode ended xD

Meowth’s/Nyarth’s loves: Meowth has had its fair share of romances too that deserves a bit of mentioning. Meowzie was the first one he fell for, and in fact was the reason why he can talk and walk like a human! Too bad she had preferred to be with the Persian :( That episode broke my heart too because I was rooting for Meowth to succeed. After that we saw multiple occasion where he was infatuated with other Pokémon, such as Skitty, Glameow, Purrloin, and others I might be forgetting. KrazyShipping is the cat and mouse relationship he has with Ash’s Pikachu, although I really wouldn’t say there’s that much love in this relationship (gets shocked like every time they meet lol). In the end, his one true love is helping and aiding Team Rocket with Jessie and James (he loves them each of them you know it)...or fetishes with Giovanni fantasies. 

Inter-region interactions: There are some fantasy shippings people would like to see happen because of region barriers (I NEED MAX AND BONNIE TO MEET), however some came true in the form of cameos like Misty and May, May and Dawn, Brock and Cilan (FAV!! Gotta love the experienced chefs), Brock and Kiawe, or even Piplup and Oshawott (best Pokémon meeting/rivaly ever). But I would have to say that Misty and Lana’s recent interaction is worthy of praise. The two trainer specialists showcased their love and passion for water type Pokémon when they swam together finding the Gyarados that startled their group. There’s a bit of a watery rivalry in this cool and clean wet relationship (okay I’ll stop the water puns). I would definitely pay to watch a spin-off just between these two sailing the oceans of the Pokémon world together, and diving into the deepest part of the sea just to see more Pokémon. 

Movie shippings: There are a couple of movie shippings to take into account over the past 20 years, especially with the movie exclusive characters. I would have to say one of my favorite ones (besides AccordShipping that I explained in a prior post) is in Pokémon Heroes with Ash and Latias (AltoShipping...though MareShipping is the Bianca alternative term of the ship). This human Pokémon relationship is just so unique since Latias could transform to the human form of the movie’s Bianca (kind of creepy if you take advantage of that). Another one worth mentioning is CarnivalShipping in the Jirachi movie. I don’t remember much, but I know that Butler and Diane were an awesome magician & assistant dynamic...too bad Butler had evil intensions with Jirachi that made me (and Diane) lose respect for him a bit (he later redeemed himself but cmon man).

Game ships: Like with the movies there’s a lot of game shippings to take into account, but my favorites would have to be from Gen. V! I do like the pairing of Dawn and Lucas from Gen. IV and the player with Lille/Hau OR Lillie and Hau themselves from Gen. VII. A lot of obvious hints too! But the Gen. V games had AgencyShipping, FerrisWheelShipping, SequelShipping (FAV!!!) and VisorShipping. I don’t know why but the character designs stuck out to me and really enjoyed its characters emotionally. But I would definitely have to say TransceiverShipping is my favorite game ship simply because it is the first time where you can actually have a DATE OPTION IN A POKÉMON GAME. Whether if it was the male player and Yancy, or the female player and Curtis, the mysterious conversations you have with the Xtransceiver build up to the eventual date you’ll have with them. Some very, very cute stuff if you haven’t experienced it yourself. Go play Pokémon Black or White Version 2 NOW!!!

Shippings from Pokémon Adventures manga/PokéSpe: We gotta show some love to the manga side of things too! One of my favorite PokéSpe shipping include LuckyShipping (the flirting in here IS REAL), FranticShipping, ChessShipping (manga counterpart of AgencyShipping), and the pairing of X and Y (don’t know the name for that one). But SpecialShipping to me takes the cake on my favorite manga ship simply because of Yellow’s shy feelings for Red. It’s kind of like AmourShipping in a way, since Red is a bit dense in his own right to notice Yellow’s feelings AND Red and Yellow had their own childhood history before the Adventures storyline. It’s just very very adorable, and full of blushes! If you aren’t into PokéSpe, but love shipping cute characters together, you should definitely give it a read! 

KetchupShipping (Pikachu & Ketchup/Kechappu): BEST. SHIP. EVER. Favorite moment - The moment where Pikachu first laid eyes on that delicious bottle of ketchup at the Dark City episode, and licked it with cute pleasure :p

.....okay in seriousness what I really want to be talking about is PikaShipping

Of course the final Pokémon shipping I have to showcase here is between Ash/Satoshi and Pikachu of all people and Pokémon! I can’t really say favorite moment because almost every time these two interact, it is always a great moment in my book! RocketShipping maybe the longest, but this beats it by an inch because there isn’t a single episode where we don’t see Ash with Pikachu by his side. They made this show work ever since it started, and everyone around the world knows this dynamic duo since 1997! Ash leaves every Pokémon behind after Johto, BUT NEVER HIM. Everyone in the anime has had their one special Pokémon partner (Dawn and Piplup, Iris and Axew, Bonnie and Dedenne, Sophocles and Togedemaru, etc...), but it is not quite like the courageous and close bond that Ash and Pikachu share. Nothing will ever beat their Pokémon partnership...NOTHING!!!
