This is my first digital drawing and I never posted it before! These are my Pokémon OCs: Floyd Mahelona and Douxie.
Douxie is the son of Archie and Maxie. After returning from an exchange program in Unova, he faced disasters and chaos caused by his own parents, who stopped contacting him and started acting very strangely.
Floyd works as a field photographer for Professor Birch, on recommendation from Professor Magnolia. He was born in Alola but currently lives in Galar. He is studying the influence of the environment on Pokémon, with a special focus on the differences between the Zigzagoon from Hoenn and the one from Galar.
Right now, the two are traveling together across the region, conducting research while discovering the schemes that Archie and Maxie are planning. They have created teams that are fighting against the Devon Corp, its mining industries, and the idea of "progress" that Steven Stone talks about so much.
This conflict had already existed for some time. They tried to reduce the environmental damage with the creation of Castform, but it wasn't enough — the impacts were already too severe.
Archie and Maxie's original goals were to protect the habitats and Pokémon that were suffering from the mining near Mount Chimney, the desertification worsened by erosion, and the leaks from the oil barges, which Mr. Devon Stone is so proud of, while his son, Champion Steven Stone, doesn't seem to do anything about it.
Archie and Maxie are planetologists and geologists. They are not stupid or ignorant — they know it is possible to recreate habitats artificially, but never perfectly.
They also planned to expand the land that had been taken by the sea and flood portions of land that had been filled in, restoring important spawning grounds, such as those for Sharpedo, for example. However, the disasters and climate changes had been happening for many years.
Unfortunately, they went too far. Their objectives got lost in the middle of madness and obsession caused by the wrong Orbs. Douxie had to step in to stop his parents from destroying the world because of the influence of the Red and Blue Orbs (take the right orbs, folks, if you want to control the primal legendaries).
Floyd takes incredible photos of Pokémon and their degraded environments. It remains to be seen if the two can help prevent further environmental damage… and if Archie and Maxie can still be saved from this madness.
That was a little bit of the lore, and what are your thoughts on Hoenn that you like or find interesting? I'd love to hear them!
