''Let's Play Arceus with Milly'' is a ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' fancomic written and drawn by shelbyecandraw.

It's a re-telling of ''VideoGame/PokemonLegendsArceus'' with the creator's OC Milly in place of the player character. As Milly is the human embodiment of chaos, HilarityEnsues.

'''Due to the nature of this comic, unmarked spoilers for ''Pokémon Legends: Arceus'' abound.'''

!!Tropes
* ActionGirl: Milly is fully ready to fight anyone at any time, and able to take out grown men with ease.
* AffectionateParody: Of ''Pokémon Legends: Arceus'', by way of putting a violent {{Cloudcuckoolander}} in the role of the protagonist.
* AllThereInTheManual: Milly's full Pokémon team is shown off in [[https://www.deviantart.com/shelbyecandraw/art/MILLY-HISUI-VARIANT-946855721 this]] art; it also reveals their nicknames, most of which aren't mentioned in the comic.
* AMindIsATerribleThingToRead: Uxie tries to read Milly's mind and is immediately traumatized.
* BearsAreBadNews: Lord Ursaluna is normally not this trope. When it's being ridden by Milly, however...
* BigEater: In "ACTIONS", Milly is shown wolfing down a large hunk of meat.
* BraidsOfAction: Milly wears her hair in two long braids and is an ActionGirl.
* BullyingADragon: Most of the Hisui characters quickly figure out that harassing Milly is this. Those that don't get to learn it the hard way.
* ButtMonkey: Melli tries to apply his usual condescending attitude to Milly and quickly becomes her favorite target as a result.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: This is Milly at her least violent, from fantasizing about stealing hats to beatboxing using the Celestica Flute.
* CurbStompBattle: To put it simply, attempting to fight Milly will rarely go well.
* CutenessProximity: Milly occasionally fawns over the more adorable Pokémon.
* DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: Milly constantly insults and trolls Arceus, though Arceus is just as prone to firing back. It's implied this is why she got thrown into Hisui in the first place. [[spoiler:She also bullies it into giving her divine powers to take out Volo in the end.]]
* TheDreaded: The people of Hisui come to fear Milly just as much as the wild Pokémon.
* {{Facepalm}}: How Milly's Typhlosion reacts when she accidentally scares Gaeric off of Avalugg's Legacy.
* FoulMedicine: Both Milly and Lord Ursaluna have this reaction when Calaba brings out her "toxi-gone" medicine.
* HeroicBSOD: Laventon and Rei have a shared one when they discover [[spoiler:Milly has a twin sister.]]
* HeroOfAnotherStory: [[spoiler:Milly's twin sister Alix managed to track down Celebi offscreen and convince it to help her bring Milly back to the present.]]
* ImpactSilhouette: Milly opts to just ram her way into the lake caves rather than wait for Arceus to open them up, resulting in these.
* JerkassHasAPoint: Several characters -- including Milly herself -- outright agree with [[WellIntentionedExtremist Kamado]] that she could have a hand in the rift above Hisui becoming unstable, given her general behavior.
* NightmareFace: Milly has one that combines a CheshireCatGrin with WideEyesAndShrunkenIrises. It's usually used to denote whenever she's about to go to town on someone.
* NoodleIncident: Whatever Milly did to piss off Arceus enough for it to throw her into Hisui in the first place.
* NotSoAboveItAll: Adaman usually plays the straight man to Milly's antics, but he's willing to TurnTheOtherCheek when she violently assaults Melli.
* OhCrap:
** Milly's reaction after she throws a balm at Lord Kleavor and it does nothing. She has a similar reaction upon facing Palkia.
** [[spoiler:Volo and Giratina both have this reaction upon being faced with a divinely-powered Milly.]]
* PolarOppositeTwins: [[spoiler:From what we see of Alix, she's ''far'' more sane than Milly.]]
* RightForTheWrongReasons: Just like in the games, Kamado suspects that Milly has something to do with the frenzied Noble Pokémon. She doesn't, but given her chaotic nature, he's still right to be wary of her.
-->'''shelbyecandraw:''' No No, Commander, you should be concerned, just not for the reasons you're thinking.
* RunningGag:
** Milly plotting to steal other people's hats.
** Milly being challenged to combat (or seeing an invitation to fight someone) and smiling, followed by a SmashCut to her inevitable victory.
** Milly riding into an area on Lord Ursaluna's back screaming "HERE'S MILLY!!!"
* SeenItAll: Implied with [[spoiler:Milly's family; Alix is unsurprised to learn that Milly pissed off Arceus, and implies that their parents won't be surprised either.]]
* ShipperOnDeck: Milly ends up becoming one for Iscan/Palina and Adaman/Irida; attempting to get the latter two to kiss gets her beaten up.
* ShoutOut:
** When Kamado tells her not to act suspicious, Milly does the "don't be suspicious" song and dance from ''Series/ParksAndRecreation''.
** Upon handing Milly the Odd Keystone, the little girl says [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaI "It's dangerous to go alone. Take this."]]
** "BOND" is a reference to one of Webcomic/{{Hiimdaisy}}'s ''VideoGame/Persona4'' comics.
** Milly calling Melli "coup de crayon" (pencil neck) is a reference to a ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'' episode.
** While being carried around by Lord Sneasler, Milly sings [[Music/BadLipReading "Seagulls! (Stop It Now)"]].
* StraightManAndWiseGuy: Pretty much every character is the straight man to Milly's wise guy, though her Typhlosion plays the role most frequently.
