This is just a list of ideas I've wanted to save, but never followed up on.
- A Windfall: Pearls had to take Ingo in. Adaman would have, otherwise.
- By Any Other Pronouns: Nimbasabattleshipping; uses he/him (etc), but identifies as female.
- Cooperative Play: The twins are Like That bc they’re former Protags. Legendary rule is for them.
- Death is a Rare Mercy: Immortality AU (secondary cast feat Cogita and Volo, but also AI Sada)
- Deja Viste: Both have secondary hobbies; Ingo’s is Musicals. Dawn, post PLA, is delighted.
- Jamais Vu: variant; used to match w/ Chandelure re: musicals. Hasn’t since getting back.
- Disequilibrium: Vanishing Twin AU, but not like that. The actual medical phenomena + fantastical twist.
- Dissonance, Waiting to Be Pulled Into Tune: ‘Lightning rod’/misplaced frustrations come to a head
- Do Not Stand at My Grave and Cry: Ideals (Hisui, w/ body) and Truth (Unova, spirit) are separated.
- Eventide: Lovecraft AU
- Exits Are Not Made Equal: follows Whumptober 2022 ‘Forced to Kneel’ (Giratina started a time loop)
- Folie a Deux: Boss Ingo starts seeing someone who looks like him around the station, but no one else thinks they look the same; Warden Ingo is confused and emotionally lost. Disappearance happens, then other people can recognize him.
- Gifts, and How Not to Grant Them: Sleeping Beauty riff; the whole Hisui thing is a workaround re: a UB’s misguided ‘gift’; tao twins
- Grief is Just Love (With Nowhere to Go): Chronic (platonic) hanahaki (nemophilia)
- I Am Lost in the Grey: Upon disappearance, appears as ghost bc he died in Hisui.
- I Could Say Heaven Sent: Immortal Volo; believes Ingo was Arceus’s first choice.
- In the (Found) Family: Warden Ingo was considered Sinnoh’s first Champion. Dawn is one also.
- Legends Permitted, Not Preferred: Legendaries don’t do anything; Path Pokemon band together to help.
- Listen to Me, I am Your Echo: The twins embody one virtue, but still possess the other; when they were split, both ideals went to Hisui, both truths stayed in Unova. Kind of a presence, but not known.
- My Brother, My Brother, and Me: Fusion AU; seems like they’re going to be separated, panic & cling. *Technically one entity
- My Engine Runs Low, It's Getting Dark: ‘His work is done, let him go’, Arceus escorts home.
- No Body, No Crime: (Attempted) murder but investigations are stymied by lack of a body… bc of Hisui.
- Prosopagnosia: Iris is/was the PLA protag instead, memories intact.
- Round Trip: Presence in Hisui is specifically for transport back
- Safety in Numbers: Transfer Error, but the Hisuian team is Afoot.
- Take Only Memories: Supposed to leave alone, but Gliscor refuses. End up swapping bodies.
- Tell Me What You Hate About Me: antag!Emmet, but only bc things went weird w/ Chandelure.
- That's a Funny Trick to Play on God: Arceus forgot it left Ingo in Hisui (honestly or via third party)
- The Appearance of Truth: Disappeared/was sent away maliciously; may have doppelganger vibes?
- The Gods Wanted You Back: Ingo-as-protag AU; Arceus wants to keep him in Hisui, offers false deal.
- This is Not Your Destruction: “Character refinement” prompt. Lack of memories made him the purest version of himself, and that growth was Arceus’s intention.
- Vassal, Vessel: Vessels of Truth/Ideals concept
- When God Closes a Door, Open it Back Up (It’s a Door. That’s How They Work): Weren’t close prior to disappearance; ‘you never know what you have until its gone’ vibes
- Untitled:
- Look completely identical when they don’t bother differentiating themselves
- PokeAni Iris has a recalcitrant Excadrill
- A version of the PokeAni episode if there was a familial connection there
- Successfully saved from being displaced, but loses one or both legs in the process
- Reverse Hisui AU, but focused on what’s happening in Unova; Nimbasabattleshipping. Established relationship/engaged; still feels compelled to look/seize chance. Emmet disappeared with his team; doesn’t lose memories/truth, loses ideals/motivation. (Also serves Kleavor)
- Were both at ground zero when reality broke/thrown to Hisui. Home doesn’t exist anymore.
- Everyone is (temporarily) turned into Pokemon, and then Emmet’s set loose on Hisui.
- Mix up between two different ‘verses that are identical, except for fairy types. They would be okay if the mistake never got corrected, but it’s better to set things right. Still scary tho.
- PTU-PMD mashup; reverse transfer error-ish
- ‘Space is sacred, therefore ALL CONTACT ALL THE TIME’
- Triangle iconography all around Coronet; Ingo’s name in sign is up-train
- Artifacts + people who look identical. Sounds familiar.
- Ultra Beasts/Wormholes are… an issue.
- Gliscor would like to be thrown, please.
- No amnesia in Hisui, but on the way back? Yes.
- Exploring the potential connection between Nobles/Alphas/Totem Pokemon.
- Halloween themed photoshoot bc of/for Elesa.
- Chimera AU; distortion world stuff + Ho-oh’s involvement. (Dungeon Meshi inspo)
- Fallers are people turned into ‘monsters’ for the setting; ‘keep the masquerade’ kind of deal.
