Rivals Visit the Internet
~Blue~
"Aw, yeah!"
A smug grin crossed Blue's face scrolled down the 6,750,709 results he pulled up when he put his name into the search bar.
A half hour later, he had only found a handful of pictures that were actually of him. He'd seen mostly pictures with the color blue.
Blue scrolled up to the search bar and put in "blue Pokémon". Significantly less results popped up this time, but more of them were relevant. As he clicked through, he began to notice a reoccurance, some girl with long brown hair, a white hat and a miniskirt who looked vaguely like Leaf.
"Wait a minute, who's this chick?"
~Silver~
Silver had one of his rare smiles on as he browsed through his fan art. So far he had seen, way, way way more art of him with Crystal rather than her with "that obsessive, flashy, pimp-suit-wearing pretty-boy" or "that annoying, clingy, overly-attached friend of hers"...especially him.
Now that the redhead looker closer, he could see it wasn't just Crystal he was shipped with-but everybody.
Pictures of him with Lance, Red, some other people he didn't even recognize, and...Gold?!
~Eusine~
"I am not a creep!" Eusine exclaimed. "How dare you say I'm creepy for pursuing my dreams?"
Crystal entered the room at the sound of the commotion. "Eusine, what is it?"
"Look at this. And it gets worse! Why does everybody here think I'm an obsessive, egocentric fanboy?"
Crystal rolled her eyes. "Well, that part is kind of true, but we all love you for it."
~Brendan and May~
"Look at all these pictures of us," Brendan commented.
May peered a little closer. There was something...off about them. "This isn't you," May stated. "Most of these aren't of me, either...who are these 'Ruby' and "Sapphire' people, anyways?"
"Whatever," Brendan shrugged, and began clicking through more pages before letting out a laugh.
"Hey, take a look at this. How do you think it would sound for me?"
May sighed.
"Sorry, but 'Brendan Motherf-ing Birch' just doesn't have the same ring to it."
~Wally~
"Why is there no art of me?" Wally let out a whimper.
"Actually, I have a better question," May stated. "Why is there no art of us?"
~Barry~
"Ooh, there's another one!" Barry clicked "open new tab" for the tenth time.
...then the fifteenth...
As another tab opened, he scrolled further down the page displaying fan art.
...then the twentieth...
With each scroll, the blond found more and more fan art to click.
...then the twentieth...
"Hey! Hurry up and load!" Barry drummed his fingers against the keyboard.
...then the twenty-fifth...
Barry paused as a window came up. "What do you mean 'there's an error and you have to close down'"?!
~Cheren~
"Just look at all of this," Cheren's voice was laced with disgust. "Page after page of N...and N with you. What's so special about him, anyways?"
"What? Are you jealous?" Ebony giggled.
"No!" Cheren adamantly denied.
~Bianca~
Bianca blushed a little. "Aww, look at all these pictures of us! There's me, and Cheren and-wow, I never realized I was that pretty! Why can't I find more fan art of just me?"
After clicking through a few pages, she stopped at one thumbnail-a pin-up.
"Eep! So adorable! I've gotta send this to Ivory and Cheren!"
~Hugh~
Hugh paused as he heard giggling coming from the other room. He bolted in to see his little sister on the computer, avidly scrolling through some page.
"What are you looking at?" Hugh asked, completely bewildered.
His sister spun around at the sound of her older brother's voice. "Hugh! Come over here! You look so cute!"
'What?' Hugh hesitantly approached the screen.
"You look so cute!" his sister squealed.
Hugh's face burned a soft pink as he looked upon picture after picture of him kissing Rosa.
If some people are counting N as a rival, I am definitely counting Eusine.
*Blue: It is a nightmare to search for fan art for him. Really, it is. You're better off searching "Gary Oak".
*Barry: If I'm browsing a wiki or looking at clothes online, I will habitually do this (and Tamikah hates it when I do it). XP
*Cheren and Bianca: Ivory is what I call the male player character in Black/White. Likewise, the female character is Ebony.
