Day: 10
Fandom: Pokémon- in a world populated by powerful creatures with incredible powers, children leave home young to travel the world and capture and train said creatures in order to battle them against one another for money and prestige. (It's less sinister than it sounds, really.) Out of the three main verses- anime, manga and original games- this is set in my personal verse based on the games.
Themes(s): Christmas shopping
Words: 225
Warnings: Giant bears on fire intimidating small traders on the behalf of young girls.
Lyra was on a major shopping spree. She didn't need too much of a reason to do this, but the fact that it was Christmas helped.
"Hey, these are pretty rare," she commented, picking up some special pokéballs. "How much are these?"
"For you, pretty girl, only 2,000!" The enthusiastic trader said, slapping his fan against the table. Lyra nodded thoughtfully, and then turned to her Pokémon. "Typhlosion, have you ever heard of a pokéball that expensive?"
"Phloooo," Typhlosion snorted, turning away from the display of dolls that she was sniffing and looming over the pokéball stand, her fire igniting a little. The trader paled visibly.
"…b-b-but for a powerful trainer such as you clearly are, young lady, only 500 each!" he babbled nervously. "And here- buy three, get a fourth free!"
"That's so sweet!" Lyra said, smiling nicely. "Thank you. Kris'll love these!" she commented to Typhlosion as she walked away, before spotting a display of custom sweets. "Oooh! Those are perfect for Leaf, she's got a sweet tooth as bad as Gold…"
"Each box is six thou- uh, one thousand… um…" the trader said, carefully revising her prices as Typhlosion leaned down over her trainer's shoulder.
Lyra loved shopping, and she loved it even more now that Pokémon were allowed to walk outside of their pokéballs in towns. It was so much fun!
Religion doesn't really seem to exist on planet Pokémon, aside from that creepy building in Hearthome, but Ash and pals met Santa in one episode, so yeah… let's go with that. (Come to that, I think the first trader that I wrote might have wandered across the verses from anime to games… remember the guy who sold James the Magikarp?)
Gotta love the Zelda games, SoftcoreOtaku… the wibbly-wobbly timeline and multiple incarnations thing leaves endless room for plunnies XD
I always wanted to stab Navi myself, Lisa Telramor, but not as badly as I wanted to stab Tingle…
Thought I'd create some flashbacks, Roseanni XD glad you like 'em!
Seems like everybody's played Ocarina of Time,KageNoNeko… which is good, because it's an incredible game :D
Nintendo owns Pokémon, and I own a full Pokédex in HeartGold.
