ShinyArceus Promo

Instructions

Here's the second of my odd Mythical ocs His idea came to me when I saw that one gabaleth short on youtube about Arceus meeting a shiny doppleganger of himself, and I immediately wanted to turn this into a pizza tower fake peppino-esque situation because I love both fake peppino and arceus lol Got a pretty BEEG lore drop for this guy There was once a Pokemon professor who was always trying to impress people with his lab stuff, but also wanting to make the one person he loved most happy more than anything. He had a son who loved Pokemon a lot, but absolutely LOVED Arceus. The stories he'd heard about the Alpha Pokemon inspired him so much, to the point where he'd do things like carry around an Arceus plush everywhere he went. His father, the professor, always loved how much his son praised the God of all Pokemon, and pushed himself harder to provide for him and his son, but that was when it all went wrong. When testing a new invention of some sort, it malfunctioned, sending a blast through the laboratory. The professor made it out alive, but his son wasn't so lucky. He couldn't believe what he had done. He grieved over the loss of his son, pushing himself even harder to create new things as a way to cope with the tragedy. These new experiments clouded his mind so much, it started to corrupt him, a couple more of his experiments having malfunctions as well, to the point where once he accidentally made himself into a human-Pokemon hybrid during one of his trials. Things kept getting even worse from here. Nobody recognized him anymore, and with that, he though the only way he could be happy again is if his son came back. But that game him an idea. He experimented with Pokemon, trying to bring dead ones back to life, but he found the process imperfect, as he could only do it through the transfer of another Pokemon. But even if it was a rather odd process, he didn't care, as long as he could get his son back, even if it meant turning him into a Pokemon, and he knew just what Pokemon to turn him into. He searched everywhere to try and get a DNA sample of Arceus,the God Pokemon itself, and eventually, he somehow found one. He transferred it into one of his machines, and found that to make the process even better, he made an artificial host for the new Arceus body to use. This host was of the fabled "Beta Arceus", and he decided to use it to make it perfect. Why try and fail to synthesize perfection when you have a DNA fragment of perfection itself, and you can do what you wish with it. He then took his son's body and placed it's essence in the machine, fusing with the new Godly appearance. Eventually, it was done. The new Arceus body was the shiny variant, making it even more a rare sight to behold. It then became a process of fusing the two, his son's new body and the Beta Arceus host, one consuming the other. That then became ShinyArceus's new personality, a corrupted combination of the professor's son and the Beta Arceus's thoughts and feelings, but it still kept the son's good heart, and would be relatively friendly... unless provoked. ShinyArceus was let off to pursue his own life, watching the real Arceus through screens or watching from afar, gaining new abilities such as being able to create shiny versions of any Pokemon with their own corrupt personalities. He also wanted a place for him and all his creations to stay, so he made his own Hall of Origin, in a random location, mimicking the original. He would never be as strong as the real Arceus, and never thought of wanting to defeat him because he sees him as an idol, but he wants to see how close he can get, and that's where he stands now. Form descriptions: Imitation form: Used when mimicking Arceus (most commonly seen) Relaxed form: Used when NOT fully mimicking Arceus (Might make more forms soon) Controlled form: When Beta Arceus starts to break out. Imitation form (alt.): Yes, Beta Arceus can show up in his mouth. It's creepier that way :3 (Well, actually this isn't really a form, this is just something that happens with the two of them sometimes) Human form: A conjuration of his old self based on memories alone. It is far from perfect, as a lot of aspects come from his new form, but he still managed to remember a little bit. Unlike his other forms, Beta Arceus cannot take control over him while in this form. "This is kinda what I looked like when I died!!" -ShinyArceus This form is based off of Arceus's human form in the Pokemon fangame "Pokemon Relict", and because of how in that fangame Arceus uses his "real" original name, "Aus", I kinda wanted to do the same thing for ShinyArceus, taking a different three letters out of Arceus's name, giving this form the nickname "Ace". Personality/Lore inspirations: Fake Peppino (Pizza Tower) c00lkidd (Forsaken) Well, that was a lot of typing. I might add more to this later but that's mostly it. I really like thinking about this guy so I hope you like him as well. Until we meet again.
