i am going to eliminate the middle aged
heh.... heheh... magma doodles.... (get it? cause magma is the team but also the site tha- [gets shot 47 times in the chest]
Meant to share this awhile ago but I printed test keychains for personal merch having reasons!
Though here comes a genuine question, I’m Indonesian and sometimes like going to art conventions (I have set up a Comifuro booth with my friends before I was back into Pokémon) and I’m curious if any of y’all’s are from Indonesia too, I’d love to know:
What generations/games are y’all’s into?
any pairings that you particularly like?
I’m personally someone who’s into Hoenn and Hardenshipping atm, say hi in the tags if we’ve got similar interests :D
additionally, if anyone knows how international shipping works hit me up.
for clarity’s sake, feel free to start a convo/comment or yap in the tags, don’t be shy, I might sell stuff one day and it’ll help
Did a comic test page based on this doodle I made like a year ago. Have young man yaoi lol
Archie and Maxie related headcanons I’ve had for a while
I have more than these that are closer to game info but unfortunately they are spoilers for my emerald comic. I want to ramble about them regardless so have like loose thoughts and stuff that’ll never get explored properly in said story lol. Some are hardenshipping and (very little tbh) team related stuff as well :)
Archie grew up somewhere near slateport, and spent a lot of time at sea with his adoptive father, Mr. Briney
Archie, Shelly, and Matt are basically siblings, they met as children and lived alongside/near each other up until they did their respective studies.
Maxie grew up and lived in Fallarbor town, his mother is a businesswoman that visits every month, while his father is a local street chef. He learnt how to cook some really good recipes but his cooking skills are limited to those dishes.
He was at one point Courtney's brother figure, he kind of still is but both are a little too caught up on work to properly hang out like they did.
Tabitha is the most emotionally intelligent of the magmas, he’s the HR guy with a psychology degree.
as much as he doesnt want to show or admit to it, Maxie has a mischievous streak. He's capable of making logically and morally questionable decisions (as seen in games). Most of the time he's prepared with an elaborate excuse, though.
Archie's cheerfulness is genuine, but he's got a lot of spite and real cold bitterness in that heart and if he feels like its necessary, he will let you know.
Archie has little spice tolerance, Maxie found out about this when he cooked for him at some point in the past
Archie and Maxie share an interest and taste in jazz, especially instrumental ones. Archie learned to piano at some point in his school life, and Maxie is decent at the violin
They met pre-college. That three-four month break before attending college was absolutely bonkers for them and you can say they had a pokemon adventure of their own
that point is when they grew their teams, became pretty damn good trainers, and became good friends.
They got together a few years into college
due to some unprecedented events a good 4-5 years into work (like age range wise about 27-28ish) and differing opinions on how to move forward from said events, they broke up. For the better, allegedly.
Maxie's love for ground types, similarly to Archie stems from loving his hometown and the place he grew up in. Yeah its dry and hot and somewhat unfriendly but it's familiar. Also Numels are just cute.
Archie can drive a boat, he's got a good intuition and can basically predict weather, mostly based on observations of how the wild pokemon are acting. He also has a pretty good grasp on memorizing places and usually can tell where they are in the ocean.
Archie has little to no memory of his biological family, but he eventually understands tgat he's most likely from pacifidlog, and that it doesn't really matter because he's got a perfectly good dad right there.
Archie and Maxie had to deal with long distance at some point, back when they didn't have advanced Pokenavs with good signal tech. Because they think it's kinda fun and sweet, Archie and Maxie communicated through letters. Peeko delivered them.
Maxie dresses masc in a way that he kind of only has two modes: Asian father and Business work man. He can have a sense of fashion but he barely explored that front and at present time prefers to be more practical.
Archie on the other hand is more creative and explores several styles. He sticks to blue most of the time, though.
Midterms eating me up? Draw old man yaoi for my survival
Family photos I cooked up because why not, also consider: Drake/Briney. Okay bye.

My ass missed hardenshipping day so I ran and made this for valentines haha. Enjoy old men kissing I guess. There was Yuri but I got tired and I need 2 prep for college so it’ll come someday 🫡🫡🫡

Cover page
Idk bro Hardenshipping PMD AU or something
decided to choose dragon-adjacent Hoenn Pokémon because I need consistency in the choice and they both surprisingly fit these Pokémon well
bonus pre-evos
-ghost
Made these yesterday, redesigned younger versions of them :)
Um. Erm. What if I headcanon them as Indonesian. Smiles.
(Bonus sketches of Maxie’s cape/ alternate fit where his coat opens up to look like his ORAS design)
i killed my arm and haven't been drawing but alas I have silly unposted content from forever ago
-Ghost
Week’s been a bit rough but thank goodness for me procrastinating on watching Atla for like 70 years this shit slaps. Anyways. Pretty straightforward post, I have brainworms and I made an AU :]
also made the other two elements w/ my takes on May and Brendan that I’ll yap about sooner or later…
-ghost
Inevitable old women yuri bc I love women
I have designs for the ORAS versions but I'm drawing like very many different things rn so that's gonna have to wait oungh
anyways, some bonuses under the cut, mostly panel redraws
-ghost
hey... Um... Miitopia
U can tell how much this game has affected my artstyle for certain things :]
I'm playing as Maxie in the new run, mage is obviously fun with how much explosions you can cause (until you run out)
Maybe will post more, but I got stuff goin on and colored doodles are all I got for now. (Bonus goofy mii pictures under the cut)
-ghost
Happy Valentine’s Day! Have some keychain designs I made a while ago and some gifs I made overnight :) -Ghost
Happy 8th anniversary to that Pokémon tcg Twitter post :)
More trainer AU!! Maxie tripped on a big tree root in Petalburg woods lol
Ghost
I'm going back to college in 2 days so have a treat :)

Me (ghost) and Condor cooked up a trainer AU for these two!! We have our own versions but it’s mostly the same kind of vibes/tone. Here they’re 17-18 going into college because boy do you get a nice 2-3 months of nothing after graduating (at least where I was).
I gave them a full party as well! Though not all of their Pokèmon are drawn here. The Altaria is wild though!
~ Here’s the teams I made for them listed down under the cut! ~
They’re not mono type and I would take all day explaining my choice But these just seem like fitting Pokemon for them (in my personal opinion)
Archie’s team
Maxie’s team
Goofy names my beloved :) definitely a bit of theming in them too! Though I didn’t really get in too deep for them. I they Also do have their Canon party member that aren’t here, the Poochyenas/Mightyenas are somewhere in their hometowns and Muk and Weezing is for another post (that I hopefully will make!)
Unguiles ur hideout :)
AU where Maxie wins I guess? Condor made the name Candor Comeout and I thought it was so goofy I had to make something out of it (this is why u shouldn’t put me in hours long of car rides it changes my brain chemistry).
-ghost
OK hear me (ghost) out I enjoy their RSE designs (especially Maxie) but I thought a bit more details to look at wouldn’t hurt…
Referenced the RSE grunt/admin sprites for both of them, just to be consistent. Magma admins had the back part of their jacket things look like capes so… Maxie with a cape. Added a sash to Archie to make him feel more pirate-y without going full ORAS
Some headshots I did because I wanted to!
Some alt versions / what I headcanon as post-emerald under the cut. These are definitely inspired by a lot of fan designs too :).
Post-emerald version + Japanese RS logos because it’d be fun to imagine these as promo images and the sort.
Bonus shitposts, as one does:
-ghost
It’s 11pm ummm yippee?
-ghost
man I love pokemon
Decided to find out what’s up with these two and they’re so stupid I love it
-ghost
I like to think that Archie and Maxie’s families are a long line of just hating the fuck out of each other…
New hyperfix, let's go-
Also, brain... why them??? Oh well. At least they get me through summer school, lmao. btw CW: knife.
