D: rose and miriam stayed together, got married, and had a kid together! instead of becoming a gym challenger, he is crowned with the future responsibility of marcos cosmos
POPPY: professor rowan, instead of letting poppy go by himself, takes responsibility and takes care of him! as a result, he becomes his assistant :^)
TURQUOISE: her family doesn’t hate pokemon, and since turquoise was still a bit of a brat, they sent her to train with the local gym leader: brycen!

I love making VAGUELY self-insert ocs that start out as just “Me but XYZ” and end off in “Oops! All transition goals!” Anyway, me if I was a Gym Leader in Pokémon

And here’s some rambling ↓
So basically, you meet Ace semi-early in game, maybe right after your first gym, and they ask you to help them out with practice for two “lucky Pokémon” (shinies) they found while training their main partner, Larvesta, to evolve. They do not share any information about themselves, and after being defeated, they have a small chat about the gym challenge with you. They mention in passing that the second to last gym works with bug types, which is odd, since bug types are often seen as weaker. Then you get to that gym. And the Leader/Celebrity Arachnace looks SUSPICIOUSLY familiar, though they INSIST that they’ve NEVER seen you before…
they the true introvert x extrovert
