Flag- that's all
Been a hot minute since I've drawn anything Pokemon related huh? Thought I'd do something with Malerie and N. I've been practicing lighting so I think this looks pretty good. I wanted a pink sunset feel to it. It's not much... I just thought this would be a good piece to kinda start of inktober, which will all be posted by the end of the month. Also I know the music is from the goodbye, but I really couldn't think of any other music to put here, so I did one of my favorite tracks. Credits: Art: Me Characters: N: Gamefreak/Nintendo Malerie: Me Music: N's Farewell: Gamefreak/Nintendo "It's been... about 2 years since you left. What exactly happened to you? I know you wanted to go on a journey or something like that..." "I went around some other regions, learning about other people and how they interacted with pokemon. It really helped open my eyes." "That's good... hey can I tell you something?" "If you trust me enough to tell, I'll listen." "This may sound stupid, but I wish I left with you." "..." "I know, it would've been without warning, I wouldn't even be able to tell my parents, or Bianca... or anyone else goodbye really. But, if I had known you..." "Would've been gone for so long, you would have left with me?" "Yeah... You know Hilda left about a year after you did to try and find you... mostly on my behalf, she still hasn't come back yet, but Cheren and Bianca are trying to get ahold of her to tell her the news." "Really? I didn't know she cared that much..." "Yeah, she didn't really show it as much as I did but she was upset. Me on the other hand..." She let out a soft chuckle, "I spent about a week locked in my room crying. I only gave myself a week though, I knew I couldn't just cry forever. But it really hurt..." "I promised you I'd come back didn't i?" "Yeah... but I didn't know when, it could've been 5 more years for all I knew." ... "I know all this trouble that Team Plasma caused is what brought you back... but were you considering returning before then...? "I was actually... at a point I had visited every region, I was about to return home already, but hearing what Ghetsis had done I knew I had to get back as soon as possible." "I heard you swooped in at the right moment and saved Rosa from getting frozen." "Yes, do you know her?" "Yeah, she came to Nimbassa with this Hugh kid, I talked to her a bit, and told her a little bit about you... She was the one who informed me you were back actually." "Really... she's an interesting trainer isn't she?" "Reminds you of Hilda doesn't she?" "I guess you read my mind huh? But, yes, the two are similar aren't they? Rosa seems 'spunkier' though." "She really is, I think Hugh is rubbing off on her, he punched a Plasma grunt on his way to Driftveil! Mostly because he wanted to get his sister's Purrloin back-" "Last time I checked you were the one who punched Ghetsis, that was on my behalf wasn't it?" "Maybe I did, To be honest I really don't know what came over me in that moment, probably just pure rage... I've never done anything like that before." "I don't think anyone expected you to do that..." ... "I haven't been on this thing since a bit after you left." "Really...why not?" "I couldn't really bring myself to, when i got on it... I could only think about the first time we rode it together... and it just..." "I'm surprised you moved to Nimbassa then... if it brought back bad memories." "Who said they were bad...? I admit the part about being the king of Team Plasma wasn't the greatest news ever, but i can never forget that night. I moved to Nimbassa hoping that you would come back someday and go on the Ferris Wheel with me again... and here we are." "They give off the best views don't they... This is about the same time we rode it 2 years ago isn't it?" "Gosh... the sun had already set by the time we got off of it..." "Looks like the sun is setting already..." "Yeah... You want to come over? My mom and I made cookies yesterday." "Who could say no to that?" "...I'm so glad you're back." Oh hey you made it through that? Congratulations, you dealt with my stupid fan fiction thing. I wanted to add a bit of a story behind this image. Maybe one day you'll get to read the entirety of Malerie's backstory, I think its pretty good for what I have written down lol.
