How do you find the music used for the story posts? Every one is so good!
Thank you very much ^^~
I have a lot of music on my computer, but I also watch a lot of Anime and movies / TV shows, and then look up the soundtracks for them if I find a piece I really like.
If I'm searching for a specific sound, I usually just scroll through as such.
I also listen to a lot of music on YouTube while out on walks or as background noise, so if a piece sticks out, I'll save it and go through the artists catalogue at a later date. It's how I discovered Epic Music World and The Awakening - the latter of which I had struggled to find the perfect track for the scene I had in mind.
I found it in a low fi compilation XD;
I'm pretty set on the last songs I plan to use for the blog, but I can only say to those out there looking - keep your mind open and look EVERYWHERE for your songs.
You never know where they'll show up. ^^
Luce gave me a bub
Thank you @occasionally-adventuring !
Night: And me and Nova here are just tagging along! Making sure Tisku doesn't get into any trouble. A smug grin appears on his face
Tisku: Oh yes sure, I would be completely undone if not for you Night. In fact why don't you take the lead for now on.
Tisku: Guess I'll keep leading the way, if that's okay with you Night. Night: uhhuh...

OOC: Break
I'm taking the entirety of November off from blog stuff due to IRL related matters.
My Christmas Card event is still very much ongoing and anyone is welcome to send an ask/discord message/DM asking for one. ^^~ I simply won't be posting blog content for this month as I'm too busy to do so.
Regular activity will with luck return in December.
Wishes of luck for this month are very gratefully appreciated. I'm going to need them.
It’s that time of year again! :D
For those unfamiliar, every year I’ve hosted this event as much as I'm able, and it’s quite simple! If you want a physical Christmas card from yours truly, you can get one, often with a little gift included that is Australian in nature ;P
This year, you'll be getting an exclusive Australian Pokemon item known as the Coles Builders. ovo They look like this:
You may ask for which one you'd like, as I have all of them in decent numbers. ovo
So, if you’d like a Christmas card, please note the following:
- You must be following me.
- You must either be over 18, able to consent to give out your name and address, OR have the permission of your parents/guardian to receive a Christmas card from me if you are under 18.
- PLEASE MAKE SURE TO INCLUDE YOUR NAME, STATE AND COUNTRY. DO NOT MISS THIS. This is something EVERYONE needs to be told twice. Those who don’t follow this rule this year will be ignored.
- Your name and address, once written on the envelope, is deleted from my ask box or messages, to retain your privacy as much as possible.
- PLEASE make sure you check and double check your address to make sure it is correct! It is not cheap for me to do this, and I don’t want anyone to miss out.
- PLEASE MAKE SURE TO INCLUDE YOUR NAME, STATE AND COUNTRY. DO NOT MISS THIS. This is something EVERYONE needs to be told twice. Those who don’t follow this rule this year will be ignored.
- Requests for cards close on the 15th of November STRICTLY. It takes time to send things across the world at this time of year.
That’s it! PM me, message me via discord, or send an ask with your details. :)
The Green Flash
An astronomical event when the conditions are right, a distinct green spot is briefly visible; the green appearance usually lasts for no more than two seconds. Rarely, the green flash can resemble a green ray shooting up from the sunset or sunrise point.
The Green Flash is considered in Alola to be a sign of great luck and prosperity.
A Red Sunrise
'Red in the morning, sailors warning' an old saying meaning that a storm is on the way. In Sinnoh, a Red Sunrise is a sign of grave danger.
A Yellow Dawn
The sun rises as it should over Hoenn. All is well.
The Blue Flash
An extremely rare event that occasionally occurs at sunrise. This event is often mistaken for the Green Flash, but this specific event only occurs at sunrise, whereas the Green Flash can occur at either dawn or dusk.
In Kanto, a Blue Flash is considered the advent of an extraordinary event.
RANDOM POSITIVITY GO (You'll never guess who I am mwehehe~) HAI SKINS. This goes without saying but I'm pretty sure you're an OG of the community. I really wish I could have met you sooner but that's ok, I'm glad I can get to know you now. Your words of encouragement have always pushed me to continue my blog as well as start drawing. You are an inspiration not just to me but to a lot of people within the community. Keep doing what you're doing and know I'll always be in your corner ❤️ 💙
You kinda gave yourself away by telling me you haven't known me long there, ehe. :p the perks of being old. I remember when I meet nearly everyone here.
I'm close to being OG. I'm technically part of the second wave of ask bloggers for Pokemon, but the original members, including the founder of Pokemon ask blogging, I do in fact know. ;)
The original ask blogs to memory were the following: asksquirtle, asktreeko, asklugia, ask-virizion, askseviper, askclefable, asknidoking, ask--charmeleon, askarceus, askazelf, ask-cobalion, ask-keldeo, askuxie, askwailord and I'm pretty sure there was an Eevee and Pikachu somewhere in there, but god knows it has been 13 years now ^^ There are quite a few I likely don't remember now. Maybe @askbookwormflareon was the Eevee?
Anyway anon, thank you so much for your kind words. ;v; it's been extremely rough offline, and kindness likes yours keeps this old soul going. 💜
Did a little doodle stream and this was the result of @askstormscall and @asksavel
Thank you so much for this Blue, I'm still giggling hehe XD;;
Prrhaps Phobia and Savel for the crackship please? ^^
what do you get when you cross an incarnate of joy and the Embodiment of Halloween?
A mischievous little prankster who sometimes takes things a bit too far, but wants everyone to be able to laugh it off in the end! While Phobia's ability cannot be passed down, their wack deity genetics have given Eve the unusual ability "Underhanded," which is Lightning Rod but for Dark type moves.
Eyy that came out awesome!! Thanks so much :D
💖Here you go, if you like ^^
SKINS! I'm gonna say thank you for the positive words! Now I'm gonna say mine in return!
Your art, your stories, your characters. Gosh, they are SO damn great! The latest video about incarnates is the most amazing thing you've ever done! Not only the cameos from blogs, but references to other media, like Doctor Who, which I've resumed watching since December of the last year.
Also it's great to see that you decided to join the Art Fight. Really love all the pieces you did for others (also thank you for drawing my kitty gal Camila). Plus some interaction pieces with Floof, they are amazing too!
Also I drew Kyurem because I've never drew a character from your Hoenn Gods blog, so I'm gotta fix that...
👌Why not, thank you Mig 💜
(Skins. You do understand you are my biggest inspiration when it comes to ask blogging? Like, your blog is one of the biggest reasons I started my blog. Just seeing your story, baring witness to it, has been so awe-inspiring. I think I first saw it when Levas first met Savel. Back in the Cleffa and Gastly days. Yeah, I've been looking at the blog for that long on one of my older tumblr accounts. It got me reading the start of the blog too. When they both evolved into a haunter and a clefairy, I was so damn excited. It's actually embarrassing how long it took me to realise Levas was Savel backwards lol A part of me wishes I would have started asking blogging earlier so I could have interacted with your characters more.
I can't believe that journey is soon coming to an end. I'm not ready for it to end because it's been so enjoyable all the way through. But obviously all good things come to an end. I mean, you've got a huge following; you've definitely earned it through your hard work on your blog. I'm probably gonna be sad that it's ended but also happy that it's been so enjoyable the whole way through. The whole Dravol saga had me on the edge of my seat with every post. At least we'll still have hoenn gods. Ky and Don my beloved. Kyurem too. I mean, Kyurem is always so entertaining. I'm ready for that Destino Kyurem meeting.
You've popped up on stream a couple of times and I've always enjoyed your company and the genuinely fascinating topics you've spoken about. It's really enjoyable listening to what you have to say. I mean, when you first joined one of my streams, I secretly fangirled inside because it was like, "Oh shit my biggest inspiration is here." Like, it was big for me. Really big. I definitely hope that we can chat more because I really love chatting to you. The conversations had about what the vibe is with the Singularity blog. It's just really nice. Also hearing how Savel is supposed to be pronounced and realising I pronounced it wrong in my head the whole time. I've still got your Christmas card with me because I love looking back at that drawing you put in it.
Your art is just so good. It really is. I think you have such a good and recognisable art style. Like, I could have a bunch of pics in front of me and I'd be able to recognise which is yours. It's a good thing to have. I just really love how you draw particular Pokémon. It's definitely inspired me and some of my choices in how I draw characters. The background though. Oh fuck, those backgrounds. You are just so good at drawing background. Fuck, I wish I had the motivation to draw the spectacular backgrounds that you draw. They're just all so gorgeous. I could see them fitting perfectly on a postcard.
I just have to thank you really. Your blog would not have made Destino possible. Seriously.)
Thank you so so much 💜 it really made my morning to read this ;v; to know you've followed me for THAT LONG oh my gosh ;; I had no idea!
I only hope the ending lives up to everyones expectations.
Thank you 💜
(Closed) Thank you for following!
I've hit a pretty decent milestone with this blog, and now it's time to say thank you to everyone! I really appreciate the wonderful support over the years of working on this blog. ;v;~
After a vote, it was pretty unanimous that people wanted a care package from Australia featuring lots of Australian goodies. This will include sweets, a few savoury items and things safe to send over the pond as it were. ^^~
Now, given the nature of this giveaway, some significant rules apply, similar to my usual Christmas Card event I run in November:
- You must be following me. (for this one, I'll be checking)
- Reblogs, likes and comments all count as one entry each for a total of three entries.
- Receiving Vegemite is non-optional. You Will Experience The Vegemite. :|
- You must either be over 18, able to consent to give out your name and address, OR have the permission of your parents/guardian to receive a parcel from me if you are under 18.
- Furthermore, PLEASE make sure you can receive a parcel safely as I'm aware postal systems worldwide can be funky as hell.
- PLEASE MAKE SURE TO INCLUDE YOUR NAME, STATE AND COUNTRY. DO NOT MISS THIS. This is something EVERYONE needs to be told twice.
- Your name and address, once written on the envelope, is deleted from my ask box or messages, to retain your privacy as much as possible.
- PLEASE make me aware of any allergies you have if you win.
- PLEASE MAKE SURE TO INCLUDE YOUR NAME, STATE AND COUNTRY. DO NOT MISS THIS. This is something EVERYONE needs to be told twice
There will only be one winner for this giveaway since it's gonna be expensive for me to do this.
Thanks so much for your support!!
