I mean, its easy. Just seperate the reveals and the twists. I wish all Houses and Halls had two words to them because its less likely to share a page with another work.

why are HXH profiles so hard?

@snafu: There's a red link in Grunbeld's profile; it should be Trauma Conga Line. Other than that, .

Obviously, he's not up to code, but I'd like to know what should be added?

Snorlax, God of Storyline Obstructions (Kabigon, The Sleeping Pokémon)

• Returning To: Locations
• s:

• Lesser God
• Symbol: Himself super deformed
• Theme Song: The Poké Flute song
• Alignment: True Neutral
• Gender: Male
• Abilities: Thick Fat
• Moves: Body Slam, Rest, Snore, Zen Headbutt
  • Z-Move: Breakneck Blitz^note Snorlax can use Pulverizing Pancake, but it requires it to learn Giga Impact first
• Portfolio: Big Eater, Blocking Pathways, being a Heavy Sleeper, Stout Strength, Mighty Glacier, Extreme Omnivore, Bears Are Bad News, Vulnerable to Fighting-type attacks, especially Low Kick, Looks Almost Like A Bed, Shout-Out to Totoro, Massive HP Stat, Eyes Always Shut, Poor Special Attack, Obsessed with Food, Really Fond of Sleeping, Belly Can Be Bounced On Or Rested On
• Herald: Sudowoodo
• Allies: Ash, Pikachu, Red, Professor Kukui, Yotsuba, Chiyo
  • Partner: Mako Reizei of the Anglerfish Team
• Foil: Bewear
• Enemies: anyone who disturbs his sleep.
• Opposed by: Anyone whose paths he blocks. Unless they have ways around him.
• Opposes: Most martial artists (due to his Type weakness)
• Narratively speaking, the Broken Bridge serves as a means to bar players from progressing through before the story decides they're ready. These can come in the form of literal broken bridges, avalanches, or NPCs. As part of the Pantheon's deity selection process, one has to be the last of these to qualify, or else be someone who has regularly broken bridges to impede the protagonist. Enter the Sleeping Pokémon, Snorlax, who is a fat, even-tempered Pokémon that loves to eat and sleep. He debuted as literal roadblocks in Kanto Route 12 and Route 16, barring access to Fuchsia City until you acquire the Poké Flute from Mr. Fuji, which is meant to wake him and render him vulnerable to Pokéball capture. Despite having to wake him up by that way, its low catch rate often makes it necessary to use sleep-inducing moves on the Pokémon during battle. Go figure.
• He was first sighted at the House of Travel, obstructing one of the hallways. Given most residents aren't Pokémon Trainers accustomed to using alternate methods, Snorlax found himself assaulted, and while he can usually weather them no problem, there's only so much he can take before he gets peeved enough to get on his feet and retaliate. He was able to put up enough of a decent fight that one of them decided on a whim to contact the Court of the Gods so that he can be assigned a position in the House of Travel so that he can be kept an eye on.
• His partnership with Mako Reizei is an interesting one. At first, she thought he was a giant teddy bear shaped cat and slept on it's belly. Snorlax didn't mind, though. She tends to use his traffic blocking ability to get away from her responsibilities and hide in a forest. That is, unless he's blocking someplace else, in which she is dragged to that place in order to wake him up and free traffic.
• He is, without a doubt, the bane of the house of Food as they know they when he comes there to eat, they have to prepare at least 880lb of food. At least, Kirby and Pac-Man were completely random with their food intake, now they have to add Snorlax on top of that. It's enough to drive them into a frenzy. He is also one of the few gods who could eat the "Delicious Fruit", "Mystery Food X", Pitful egg, and Kei's cakes in one setting without suffering from any ill effects because that's how strong his stomach is. Despite eating just about anything, even Snorlax doesn't like Plankton's chum, though he simply finds it "bland and bitter" rather than "OH GOD MY STOMACH!" like most gods. Despite his species' reputation for eating anything and everything, as seen in Hisui, Snorlax won't eat Springy Mushrooms or any products made with it.
• After 20 years of sleeping, Snorlax is ready to use its Z-move in the form of Pulverizing Pancake. It will usually only reserve usage of such a move when really pissed off. Also, he's capable of using Hyper Beam through his eyes.
• Bewear is considered a Foil to Snorlax—both vaguely resemble bears and/or bear-related paraphernalia (i.e: teddy bears, mascot costumes), are Mighty Glaciers that hit hard from the physical side, and their stat distributions being remarkably similar when Fluffy is taken into account (with Snorlax tanking hits from special moves, and Bewear physical). Likewise, they're both infamous in their own native regions; Snorlax is a total glutton and is absolutely lazy to the point of blocking paths, and Bewear is known for her somewhat feisty nature or being absolutely dangerous to handle due to her lack of awareness and control of her own strength.
• Snorlax eats so messily, that he gets berries, seeds and pebbles stuck to its fur, which grow to huge sizes with Gigantamax energy.
• (resemblance to Totoro)

Excadrill, God of Drill Moles (Subterrene Pokémon, Simole, Kamina, The Drill King, Doryuzu)

• Returning To: Rabbits and Rodents
• s:

• Lesser God
• Symbol: Its drill head
• Alignment: True Neutral
• Gender: Male
• Ability: Sand Rush
• Moves: Drill Run, Hone Claws, Metal Claw, Sandstorm
  • Z-Move: Tectonic Rage
• Portfolio: Drill Mole Miners, Tunnel King, High HP to compensate for bad Defense, High Attack, plentiful Type resistances, and decent Speed, Ground-type, Steel-type, only two feet four inches tall, steel-boring claws
• Domains: Moles, Drills, Digging
• Followers: Digmole, Drimogemon and NiseDrimogemon, Neo-Spacian Grand Mole and Mogumole, Major Burrows, Experiment 529 a. k.a. Digger
• Allies: Ash Ketchum, Pikachu, N Harmonia, Team Dai-Gurren (esp. Simon and Kamina), Jill Dozer, the Fortress Dwarves, Gaara, Gajeel Redfox, Toph Bei Fong, Baragon, Tyranitar
• Enemies: Team Rocket, Ghetsis Harmonia, Lysandre, Cyrus, the Anti-Spiral, Anub'arak, Crocodile, Sakazuki, Rumble and Frenzy, most non-good gods in the Hall of Toxicity
• Cautious Around: Fire-, Water-, Fighting-, and other Ground-types
• When it comes to the immediate subterranean; two things are most prevalent. One of them is the mole, a known garden-ruining pest. Another is the drill, a tool better suited for drilling than a shovel. And like many cool things, they sometimes get merged, giving the trope Drill Mole. And Excadrill, the Subterrene Pokémon, was selected out of a grab bag since it fit the bill; a mole-based creature with a drill motif. The evolved form of Drilbur, it can straighten its body and spin like a drill, and cut through iron and steel plating. An excellent digger, its speed, typing, and moveset makes Excadrill a powerful Pokémon, and by extension a worthy deity for ascension.
• Given his motif, Simon got along with Excadrill very quick, and so did Kamina. The former considered debating who gets to have the Subterrene Pokémon as a partner, but the latter, ever the Cool Big Bro, relinquished his claim. Not that that matters much since they're all together as one group now.
• His Pokédex entries can be contradictory. According to Black, it can help in tunnel construction. But according to White, their activity can be destructive to subway tunnels. Of course, he's perfectly capable of doing both depending on his mood and the circumstances, and the Hall of Earth and Rock has encouraged Excadrill to use his powers constructively. That said, his potential to damage subway terminals is a source of concern to Artyom, with the man politely asking Excadrill to stay away from the Post-Apocalyptic Metro System. One visit later, and after experiencing all its perils, supernatural and otherwise, the Drill Mole is sure not to make a repeat visit.
• His typing renders him immune to most poison-related attacks, earning him tons of adversity from the near-entirety of the Nature Hall of Toxicity (though Salazzle can Corrode through his Steel Typing anyway). And if allowed to Hone Claws and can endure long enough, Excadrill is capable of virtually annihilating anything that gets in his way. And given how useful he can be, even outside of battle, he gets involved a lot in the goings-on in the Pantheon; it helps that he gets involved with Team Dai-Gurren a lot. Through them, he also became acquainted with Jill Dozer, who was interested in his drill-based implements. Despite her status as the leader of a gang of bandits, due to their status as a group of Loveable Rogues, Excadrill still thinks it's alright to join forces with her from time-to-time to go on adventures.
• Ironically, Excadrill is weak to his own Ground type. Usually this doesn't concern him, however he is always on edge for the more villainous geomancers and earth manipulators like Rumble and Frenzy, or Crocodile. Admiral Akainu in particular is a threat, given his Steel typing makes him vulnerable to heat. Likes to hang with Tyranitar on occasion, as his Sand Stream automatically creates a sandstorm (and Excadrill won't need to whip one up himself beforehand), which Excadrill's Sand Rush can make great use of.
• As most non-humanoids often do in the Pantheon, Excadrill eventually ran into others that are generally of his kind. Namely, this means other moles, such as Mr. Resetti (while he was chilling from not having to rant at someone for a while), the Mole who's friends with the Rat (who's saddened that the Drill Mole couldn't exactly hold a tea cup or do any delicate activities with him), and the Happy Tree Friend known only as The Mole (whom Excadrill accidentally killed once).

TV Tropes Pantheon Group Members Database

Mika has reunited with Karin in the Pantheon.

Once again, Far Zenith (Gerald, Erik and Tilda) for The Elites Jump Ship.

The Elites Jump Ship is easy enough. Far Zenith consists of the Old World's wealthy elite who funded Far Zenith's Odyssey Project in exchange for a ticket off of the planet to avoid being killed by the Faro Swarm. And it happens once again when Nemesis destroys their colony on Sirius and haul-tail back to Earth.

The way the third sentence suddenly switches to plural is a bit weird.

Also, moles aren't rodents.

Any other expert in Pokemon knowledge, specifically on these two, who has an interaction idea I'm missing?

Dragonite, God of Having Ridiculously Small Wings (The Dragon Pokémon, Sea Guardian, The Sea Incarnate, Kairyu)

• Theme Song: Dragonite Takes Flight
• Alignment: Neutral Good
• Ability: Multiscale
• Gender: Male
• Moveset: Hurricane, Extreme Speed, Aqua Jet, Outrage
  • Z-Move: Devastating Drake
• Portfolio: The First Dragon Types And Psuedo-Legendaries, Gentle Giant, Badass Adorable, Wings So Small They Should Stop It From Flying But Do So Anyway, Delightful Dragon yet Beware the Nice Ones, Not As Slow For Its Chonk As You'd Think
• Domains: Dragons, Powerful Creatures, Mystical Beings, The Sea, Rescue, Compassion
• Allies: Ash Ketchum, Brock and Misty, Pokemon Trainer Red, Lugia, Rayquaza, Barney the Dinosaur, Barry B Benson, Captain Planet and the Planeteers, Arthur Curry/Aquaman, Rubeus Hagrid, friendly dragons in general (notably Falkor, Tiki and Spyro), The Diver, Pi and Richard Parker, Enterprise, Franky
  • Partner: Carter Grayson
• On good terms with: The Hall of Land and Sea Travel, Percy Jackson, Hermes/Mercury
• On speaking terms with: Chaos (Sonic the Hedgehog)
• Rivals: Kingdra, Salamence
  • Friendly Rivalry with: Tyranitar, Garchomp
• Enemies: Hunter J, Giovanni, Hexxus, Grima
  • Armistice with: The Dovahkiin
• Distrusts: The Hall of Ice and Cold, Archie, Kyogre, Mr Krabs
• Uncertain on: Poseidon
• The first Dragon type introduced was the Dratini line. A rare Pokémon found in bodies of water, Dratini is a sea serpent that was called the "Mirage Pokémon" due to how hard it was to find. It was first discovered by a fishermen, and sheds its skin as it grows. At Level 30 Dratini becomes Dragonair, who can fly with wings on its head, and exudes a gentle aura. Only at Level 55 can the line gain the Flying type and become the behemoth known as Dragonite. The first psuedo-legendary Pokémon^note a three-stage, late evolution Pokémon with 600 BST or stats comparable to a legendary, has tiny wings for its bulky body. However Dragonite has no problem with flight, and is so fast that it can fly around the world in 16 hours. Compared to many future psuedo-legendary Pokémon Dragonite is a lot more friendly and docile, however it is no less powerful or dangerous when angered.
• Dragonite was first spotted not in the Hall of Dragons as some predicted, but the Hall of Land and Sea Travel where it rescued some mortal figures who were shipwrecked. The dragon's species is known for rescuing people who were shipwrecked or lost at sea, simply out of the goodness of its heart. For the good deeds it was doing, the Dragonite that was found was rewarded with candidacy for the Trope Pantheon and an eventual position under "God of Having Ridiculously Small Wings". The sea guardian is rarely found in his own Hall as he still helps out those lost and shipwrecked, having Enterprise and Franky help out other people. Unless you're a REAL asshole he doesn't care why you're at sea; the Delightful Dragon is there to give a helping hand.
• Compared to later psuedo-legendaries, he's a lot cuter and calmer. Temperament-wise Dragonite is the polar opposite of the other Dragon/Flying psuedo-legendary Salamence, who has a reputation of being a raging asshole. Dragonite isn't fond of his attitude, not helped by Salamence constantly trying to prove that he's better and making fun of his relatively tiny wings. Tyranitar and Garchomp also like to posture about being stronger than Dragonite, pointing to their ace in Mega Evolution, but they're at least affable around it and don't try to make him the OG Dragon type feel bad about himself. Of course despite Salamence's provocations Dragonite doesn't hate him persay; you have to be a real bastard to have Dragonite hate you.
• One of the ways Salamence has tried to get under Dragonite's skin is derisively call him Barney the Dinosaur. Dragonite thought this was Salamence being nice for once, as he sees so much in common with Dragonite; they're big and lovable despite being based on typically "fierce and badass" creatures like the T-Rex and dragon. Dragonite shares that "big, friendly energy" with Rubeus Hagrid, who gets along with him along with having a lot of knowledge about dragons. Seto Kaiba has yet to make a statement on how he feels about Dragonite, since while he does love his dragons...Dragonite just feels too cute and cuddly for him to get around on.
• Hunter J is Hated by All Pokémon, however he especially hates Hunter J because of how rare a Pokémon he is; until first discovered by a fisherman, the Dratini line was thought to be a myth or mirage. This rarity makes him a prime target for the black market and all Hunter J sees in the kind, powerful and intelligent dragon is a lot of money. The Team Rocket leader Giovanni agrees on the money part, but is less myopic and plans to force Dragonite to serve Team Rocket so their power may grow. Dragonite just wants them to leave him and other Pokémon alone. This is somewhat of a sore spot the sea guardian has to one Eugene Krabs. Yes, Krabs isn't as bad as either of them but he's still a pretty greedy businessmen who sees dollar signs over talk about Dratini. Dragonite has warned him not to try anything, but as long as he doesn't he'll be left alone.
• According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way Dragonite should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. Dragonite, of course, flies anyway, because dragons don't care what humans think is impossible. And yes, Dragonite did have Barry B Benson as a scriptwriter for pending nomination. Though they aren't that similar, Barry is a benevolent flying creature with oddly small wings for his body, and he has an interesting job where he acts as lawyer for disenfranchised animals. Dragonite came to him for legal help of all things, mainly to pass more bills against the exploitation of Dratini and other rare Pokémon like himself^note he loves all Pokémon, but he felt they needed his help first. One case was to launch a case at the Dovahkiim whom he had seriously negative views on for his dragon hunting. Ultimately the dragon hunter avoided a court case for promising not to hunt any Dragon-type Pokémon; besides, Dragonite is such a Nice Guy he can't in good conscience hunt him.
• Though he doesn't oppose Archie especially since he's reformed, Dragonite thinks his belief of expanding the sea to benefit Pokémon was completely stupid, not to mention not considering all the humans who would be shipwrecked by the increased tides. However he at least isn't Kyogre, who's basically a sea deity that expands and causes chaos with the sea not because it thinks that's what's for the best but because they just don't care about the consequences. Kyogre couldn't care less what Dragonite thinks, and mocked him being a mere psuedo legendary. On the flip side, Dragonite is more nuanced with Chaos. He was appalled by the great flood they caused in their wrath even if they were legitimately angered, however Chaos has had a Heel–Face Turn and no longer holds anger to the world. They have asked to let them prove they've become benevolent again, and Dragonite can't say no to that.
• Due to Dragonite's history of rescuing people from shipwrecks, he quickly gravitated to one Carter Grayson of the Power Rangers. He's the head of a group dedicated to rescues, which meant he was in tune to the Dragon Pokémon's inherently charitable and helpful nature. Together Dragonite serves as a might dragon mount that has helped the Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue out immensely, though the psuedo-legendary has advised them to be a lot more cautious in cold and icy terrains; Multiscale may help somewhat, but Ice type attacks are still devastating. The Pokémon will sometimes be called upon by the Diver and Pi for aid, and it's all in a days work. Asides from rescuing, Dragonite will sometimes deliver air mail. He'll admit that while this is mostly out of the goodness of his heart, part of him just wants to prove the people who think his chunky body would make him slow wrong.
• Finds Poseidon frustrating, however not to the point he can bring himself to dislike or oppose him (not that Poseidon is someone Dragonite could beat in a fight). His mercurial, reckless nature and wrath he sometimes doles on shippers for little reason bother the dragon, however Poseidon is often compassionate towards beasts of the sea and in his own way he loves the sea. For the most part Dragonite is fine with him so long as he never gets in the way of his saving people. Dragonite is fond of his son Percy Jackson, but more due to him being a water-focused hero and general good person than anything noteworthy. He is also decent terms with Poseidon's nephew Hermes (or Mercury if you're Roman), as asides from his genial personality Hermes is a speedster with little winged shoes...a trait Dragonite finds nostalgic given the ears on his immediate pre-evolution. Those ears were also what he used to fly, though using Flying type moves was more of a mixed bag in those days.
• Within the Pokémon community Dragonite is a fan of Ash (no surprise there), Red (for stopping Team Rocket from taking over his debut region), Brock and Misty (for helping out one of his Kaiju sized brethren). Ash is also one of few trainers to catch and tame a fully-grown Dragonite, alongside his friend Iris, so the ascended Dragonite respects that. With fellow Pokémon, Dragonite is friendly with Lugia and Rayquaza. They're both protective legendaries, the former being associated with the sea despite not having the Water type and the latter correcting whatever problems Kyogre and Groudon cause with their ceaseless bickering. Lugia has apologized for any shipwreck it might've caused in the Whirl Islands, but Dragonite understands that it is only there to contain its massive power.
• The only dragon that Dragonite has active hatred for is Grima, due to how much of an abomination it is and its horrible goals. There is simply nothing to like about pure evil. Outside of him even some of the evil draconic deities like Bowser or Smaug will get at worst a disapproving frown from Dragonite; he's just that friendly a dragon. Dragonite likes the friendly and huggable dragons more such as Falkor, though he's still not the hugger that Goodra is. The Dragon Pokémon also likes the more Western-style Spyro. Another good dragon friend of Dragonite is Tiki, a divine dragon who shares a love of helping people in need. Together the two strive for a better future, though there is some angst on Tiki's part that she will inevitably outlive the psuedo-legendary.
• Though Dragonite as a whole are friendly unless you're really evil, they are not Always Lawful Good. Iris' Dragonite is confrontational and violent. They're also known to engage in fierce battles with Kingdra for no apparent reason. Amusingly Dragonite acts irate whenever he is close to the seahorse, which is kind of awkward for Aquaman whenever he's riding Kingdra; Dragonite likes him because of his role in being a king and guardian of the oceans. Also of note is Aquaman's ability to command sea life manages to affect Dragonite despite not being a Water type, due to being in one of the Water egg groups and usually living in the sea.

Empoleon, God of Pun-Based Creatures (The Emperor Pokémon, Master of the Waves, Emperte)

• Hall: Naming Convention (House of Naming and Epithets)
• Intermediate God
• Symbol: Its trident-like beak
• Theme Song: Empoleon's Snow Slide
• Alignment: True Neutral
• Ability: Defiant
• Gender: Male
• Moveset: Aqua Jet, Drill Peck, Steel Wing, Swords Dance
  • Z-Move: Corkscrew Crash
• Portfolio: Prideful Emperor Penguin Based On Napoleon, Has The Attitude To Match, I Work Alone, Classy Cravat, Pun-Based Creature, Water And Steel Type, Starter Mon, Prongs of Poseidon That Doubles As A Crown
• Domains: Pride, Puns, Historical Influences, Penguins, Starters, Stubbornness, Swimming
• Allies: Ash Ketchum, Dawn, Cynthia, Sgt. James Byrd, the Penguins of Madagascar, The Antarctic Research Crew, Olivier Armstrong, Davos Seaworth, Franky, Enterprise, Ice Man
  • Partner: Napoleon Bonaparte
• On good terms with: House Stark, Vegeta
• Rival: Sun Wukong
  • Friendly Rivalry with: Blastoise, Feraligatr, Greninja
• Enemies: Hunter J, Giovanni, Cyrus, Rusty, Joffrey Baratheon, The Thing, Gaston, Colonel Volgin
• Opposes: Prince Charmless
• Wary of: The Hall of Electricity
• One of the three starters of the Sinnoh region is the Water-type penguin Piplup. Piplup is known for a strong sense of self-pride, and it has a hard time accepting food given to it. To its credit, the penguin is a really good swimmer. Their pride stops them for forming a group as each member insists they're the most important one of the group. The final form of this Pokémon is Empoleon, a Water/Steel emperor penguin that can move as fast as a jet boat. The people of old Hisui called Empoleon "Master of the Waves" and though very haughty, it prefers not to get into unnecessary conflict.
• Empoleon is an emperor penguin both biologically, but also in character. And not just any emperor, but Napoleon Bonaparte. Its name is a mix of "emperor" and "Napoleon", its height is the same as Napoleon, and its personality is pretty similar too. Naturally, Napoleon was one of the only people that someone as egotistical as an Empoleon would accept as a partner, in part because it sees a lot of himself in the guy. However the penguin considered Dawn a close second, as she had successfully raised a strong Piplup as her starter. He is also generally respectful towards Ash since his love and compassion for Pokemon everywhere rewards him that respect. Empoleon also possess respect towards the champion of his native region, Cynthia.
• On the flip side Hunter J is Hated by All Pokémon for the opposite reason Ash is loved. Empoleon is certainly no exception. He isn't fond of Cyrus or Giovanni either; the former is a villain who directly threatened his region, while the latter considers him a "valuable asset" and believes that Pokémon are tools for power. And don't get him started on Pokemon "Trainer" Rusty, who should've never been allowed near another living thing. Empoleon isn't fond of Gaston either, but not because of any hatred. Instead, it's because Gaston has a love of showing how great he is and wants to hunt down Empoleon as he's a tough, exotic animal.
• Empoleon was hardly the first Water type starter, let alone starter to be introduced to the Trope Pantheon. Among the other fully evolved Water starters the Emperor Pokémon boasts to be the best choice of the bunch, citing his steely determination as a cut above the cannon-wielding tortoise, amphibious ninja and strong-jawed crocodilian. The four have come to regularly spar in order to prove once and for all who's the best of their kind, however it is entirely in good spirit as they usually get along off the battlefield. A less friendly rivalry would be born between Empoleon and Sun Wukong, as the penguin is well-aware that its own contemporary Infernape was a disciple of the Monkey King; to best him would be an absolute flex on the fire monkey. But against a true god, Empoleon was outmatched. Still Empoleon swears he won't give up and he will get stronger; it's not for nothing that this Empoleon has the Hidden Ability of Defiant.
• If it were not apparent already, Empoleon may be the haughtiest of all Water type starters and one of the most prideful Pokémon going. If anyone were to hurt its pride, it would slash them with wings that can cleave through an ice floe. Even his choice of a partner was partly an exercise in narcissism. It is this pride that has led to the Master of Waves find common ground with the House of Pride and Egotism. Personally he has come to like Vegeta and his growth into having a more healthy but no less present ego, though he doesn't think Empoleon has enough in common with him to be an ally. Most of the time, however, you can find Empoleon chilling at the Hall of Ice and Cold.
• Empoleon may be haughty but he is no Smug Snivy and will stay composed, letting their actions and body language do the boasting for them. He'll use his mighty swimming skills to save people not just because Empoleon want to show off, but because he is an emperor (penguin) and it is his duty. He will aid people in need sailing the seven seas because it is the responsible and right thing to do. And as such, he has aided a number of deities in the Hall of Land and Sea Travel. Empoleon has come to respect House Stark as their time in the cold north has sharpened them into a hardy, loved noble family.
• While having grown seasoned and calm over time, Empoleon won't deny that it used to be an arrogant little brat. By all accounts Piplup and Prinplup are royal brats nigh-incapable of respecting anyone and refusing to accept being subordinate to everyone. Empoleon regards being a Prinplup as "why puberty sucks" and he projects this upon his strong dislike to royal brats like Princess Charmless. Empoleon is especially frustrated by Joffrey Baratheon since he's the absolute worst kind of a spoiled, egotistical brat, and one with such little self-awareness the penguin speculates it would take dying over and over for him to understand his actions have consequences.
• When it comes to other members of his kind^note the bird, not the Pokémon, Empoleon can't say that the Trope Pantheon has bad representatives. Empoleon seeks to learn from Sgt. Byrd on how to be capable of flight, as while a penguin the bird can fly. He also respects his work ethic. Empoleon also likes the Penguins of Madagascar because he finds their antics rather amusing and wants to see if they can scheme a way to counter-act Electric types. Sure Empoleon is also weak to Ground and Fighting types, but they can be covered by Aqua Jet and Drill Peck. Also, he's part of the Pokkén Tournament so wanting to avoid the House of Fighting and Combat due to type weaknesses would come off as rather cowardly. Still, Empoleon is man enough to admit he fears to tread in the Hall of Electricity, especially Zeus and Eneru. The penguin dreads the idea of meeting Colonel Volgin too as he'd want to watch him explode in agony from electric torture.
• Despite being a penguin, Empoleon is not an Ice type. However, Piplup are found in typically icy and cold climates. Empoleon's ability to carve through ice floes like a living icebreaker ship has made the Pokémon an attractive figure among those who work in tundra or arctic conditions. Hoping to prove to others of his superiority, the penguin applied to aid Fort Briggs. He personally respects Olivier Armstrong for her hard work ethic and hard-ass attitude since it gets results, however she wants him to prove that he is willing to go through the Training from Hell to do so. Napoleon gave in good word to his partner since he doesn't intent to let the winter foil his troops like the last time.
• Empoleon has volunteered to aid the Antarctic Research Crew in cutting through the ice in order to help them traverse the continent. He wasn't expecting there to be something like the Thing lurking there and truth be told, he's terrified of the entity...but his pride and stoic demeanor refuses to let him back down. His ability to function as an icebreaker has also allowed him to help Ice Man with his subzero research.
• Took a wrong turn at one point and found himself in the Iceberg Lounge, the "legitimate" establishment of one Oswald Cobblepott. The Penguin allowed his entry because let's face it, he could not resist the novelty. And personally, he was impressed to see an example of a penguin that could actually kick ass and wasn't just some funny animal. When questioned by Batman, Oswald replied "what, I just let him have some free fish. I just thought Empoleon was neat. And before you ask no, I don't get penguins wasted".

I still don't think Empoleon's image caption is necessary.

Sorry, forgot about that

Also, I meant to respond to this earlier, but I forgot:

@Shinobi: I think Bisharp can stay. Middle evolutions tend to be overlooked, so having some in the Pantheon adds some variety. We can always add a paragraph about Kingambit to its description.

@Puzzarian

Reveals and Twists hasn't hit the red "too long" warning, so it doesn't need to be split now.

THE GOLDEN AGE WILL RETURN AGAIN!

They have the power to change water's state of matter, and this extends to their bodies, which are fluid. Medley Brook is usually in a liquid form, while Crystal is usually solid. When they were foals, they were friends with two zebras named Marini and Zecora, and two abada named Cactus Rose and Dust Devil. Zecora became distant from them all as she researched magic, until eventually she jumped on a ship to Equestria and never looked back.
• ...That was, until shortly after Twilight Sparkle was crowned the ruler of all Equestria. She wanted to expand Equestria's knowledge of the world, so she tasked her friends with exploring other nations. Applejack reluctantly dragged Zecora back to Farasi, where she reunited with her old friends. Together, they ventured into the desert to fight the destructive Grootslang, and discovered Farasi's long-forgotten Tree of Harmony. Each of the Farasians gained an element; Medley Brook's was laughter, because she entertained some cacti with a song to repay them for giving the group water, and Crystal's was Loyalty, because she dehydrated herself to save Dust Devil from falling.
• After the international Elements of Harmony saved the world from the Knights of Order, Applejack approached the Court of the Gods and vouched for Medley Brook and Crystal to be ascended to the co-goddesses of kelpies. The Court were impressed, but asked Applejack to bring them here so they could meet them for themselves. Medley was enthusiastic to meet the Court, but Crystal asked them what their deal was, and her mean streak almost got them both rejected. After their ascension, Pinkie Pie threw them a Welcome to the Pantheon Party.
• Their temple is a small oasis surrounded by palm trees. Medley Brook's half is warmer and filled with lotuses, water lilies, and similar freshwater flowers, while Crystal's is decorated with ice sculptures she made herself.
• As soon as she ascended, Medley's first goal was to meet all the water-related creatures she could, so her first stop was the Hall of Aquatic Life. She was overwhelmed by how cute Oshawott and Popplio are, and she likes to play with them and Platypet on the waterslides in the Platypus Playground. Sometimes she plays hide-and-seek with Vaporeon, where they take turns melting into the water and finding each other. She was also ecstatic to learn that there were different kinds of kelpies elsewhere in the multiverse, and set out to find them. One misadventure later, she met Keldeo of the Swords of Justice and immediately bombarded him with questions... until the others showed up. Medley, intimidated by their horn-swords, left.
• Crystal is nowhere near as enthusiastic, so she gets along better with similar aloof, cool types. Due to her more serious attitude, she has a far easier time hanging out with the Swords of Justice. Since Crystal was mischievous as a foal — she used to freeze every puddle Zecora was about to step in — she's a kindred spirit with Jack Frost.
• You'd think Crystal would get along with Elsa, seeing as they both have ice powers, but you would be wrong. Crystal found Elsa too mopey, and Elsa found Crystal too flippant. However, Medley Brook cried a river (literally) when she learned about Elsa's history, and that was the start of a beautiful friendship.
• When the two first met Percy Jackson, he assumed he could understand them because they were equines and beings of water. They explained that no, they're sapient beings, and Translation Convention is in full effect in the Pantheon. Despite their awkward meeting, the three of them get along well, and Medley introduced him to the other My Little Pony deities.
• The duo's most unusual ally, however, is Kratos. In one of his own adventures, he and Freya rode a kelpie to meet the Norns. He wanted to show it to Atreus, but wasn't able to, so he's glad he finally has some other kelpies to show them. However, he didn't even try to ride Medley Brook or Crystal; not only are they too small, but being zebra-like, they'd buck off anyone who tried.
• The Elric brothers find these two unsettling because they remind them of their undead mother from another universe, who could melt her body into water. Similarly, a lot of gods who've met the kind of kelpies who try to drown people (such as Scrooge McDuck, his allies, and Jake Long) are wary of them. The Splatoon deities and the Wicked Witch of the West fear them for a far more mundane reason: they dissolve in water. Medley is absolutely distraught about this (except the Witch, who she thinks is ugly), but Crystal doesn't really care.
• Due to their isolation from Equestria, they'd never heard of Grogar, Tirek, or King Sombra before they ascended, but once they did, they instantly became enemies with all of them. Crystal thinks that Grogar and King Sombra would probably try to enslave all the Farasians, while Tirek could potentially flood the world if he absorbed all the kelpies' magic. Medley just finds them all scary.
• Kelpies explode when they come into contact with water. Medley Brook learned this the hard way many years ago when she tried to eat zap apples; her friends had to mop her up and put all her pieces in a bucket. Crystal swears Medley is shorter than she used to be. As a result, they keep well away from any electricity-users. One night, Volgin snuck up on their temple and tried to electrocute Medley in her sleep for kicks; fortunately, Crystal woke up and kicked him in the face. Also, they both find the Nuckelavee deeply unsettling, being an undead, not-quite-equine thing that stinks of decay. They haven't realised yet that it's weak to fresh water.
• Back in Equestria, Twilight Sparkle didn't have much time to get to know Medley, Crystal, and the other international elements. Inquisitively, she visited their temple and asked them about their history with Zecora. Crystal was too stubborn to answer, but Medley Brook was all too eager to give her the details. It reminded Twilight of a bigger friendship problem in the Pantheon she hadn't been able to solve — the centuries-long feud between Master Oogway and Kai — and asked them to help her solve it. They both agreed to come with her, even if Crystal complained the whole time.

@ Bisharp: Funnily enough, we could easily make an in-universe excuse for Bisharp not to be usurped by its evo; you can only get a Bisharp to evolve by beating three other Bisharp with a Leader's Crest

Speaking of Pokemon, I want to know how I or someone else who wants to should pursue this idea

• I am considering both Xerneas and Yveltal for a rework because as it stands their current profiles are rather lackluster. However I want to know what you guys think about the two profiles being combined (legendary duo/trio Pokemon usually aren't separate) into one profile under a single trope. That trope? Astonishingly Appropriate Appearance; both the mascots of Pokemon X and Y are visually designed to resemble the letters and have it in their design. Is there a trope you think they should combine to have instead? Do you think Zygarde could also be merged for a full Aura Trio? Or should I just leave it alone and rework them as is?

Edited by RJ-19-CLOVIS-93 on Feb 28th 2023 at 11:12:07 PM

Neutral on Zygarde being added to the same group as them. While it would free up Adaptation Expansion and base Zygarde's design fits, its other forms don't really match up with having the same Z bodyshape. That being said, do the idea of merging/reworking Xerneas and Yveltal's profiles by themselves, as it would free up The Marvelous Deer and Born-Again Immortality (to which the latter of these I have an idea for the new holder).

Seeing as numerous other pages do the same thing, I think doing as such is totally ok.

I have a question about Lightning McQueen: Is it alright if I change his profile name to his real name (Montgomery McQueen)? "Lightning" is a nickname or alias, it seems, so that would be added to his list of alternate names.

Freudian Excuse: Not one person is entirely good or evil; something will have to have happened in the past to make them what they are today.

Just seeing this out of the blue but Phantom Fire has made an unannounced suggestion for Atomic Heart. Now as someone who has great interest in the game (for one specific trope: Soviet Superscience), wasn't Atomic Heart released a few days ago? If so, isn't this a breach of Hype?

I swear Loid, you can't draw worth shit!

To me, a breach of hype is posting a suggestion for approval in the forum before the HPS date passes. Since they just put an idea in their sandbox, it's more harmless in my eyes.

THE GOLDEN AGE WILL RETURN AGAIN!

I don't see a problem with that. His Characters/ folder calls him 'Montgomery "Lightning" McQueen' anyway.

So this was a pre-existing idea from a disappeared contributor (worldofdrakan), don't know if it was proposed before but I think it's safe for me to make this profile a thing myself.

Suggesting: Fran Bow Dagenhart as Goddess of Phlebotinum Pills Reasoning: After we are introduced to Fran and how she ended up in Oswald Asylum, her therapist instructs her to take a new medication called Duotine, which is the only way to advance. She faints and wakes up days later, determined to leave, and she takes the Duotine with her because her cat said that "the medicine would show her where he is". The Duotine unlocks an alternate, bloodier view of the world (known as the Ultrareality), and it is necessary to proceed in the game. For one such instance, it is under the Duotine's effects that the vents are unlocked for her to escape the office when she gets locked in.

Also, what hall(s) would this go in? I've thought of Medical Miscellaneous and/or Narrative Actions, but I'm not too sure of these myself.

Ah right, Objects makes more sense. Thanks

Edited by BlackFaithStar on Mar 1st 2023 at 2:49:31 AM

No child should have to think of selling medication for food. Are you afraid?

For Halls, I would go with Medical Miscellaneous and/or Narrative Objects.

THE GOLDEN AGE WILL RETURN AGAIN!

And now, for your second look at the dastardly duo. I am having trouble at coming up with enemies, so perhaps any tips/recommendations would be nice?

Ange le Carré & Princess Charlotte, Divine Pair of Similar Strangers (Ange: Princess Charlotte, A (from the Commonwealth's spy org, Control), Alice (during Episode 6), Chloe (during Episode 9), My Turtledove (by Princess) | Princess: Ange le Carré, Priscilla (during Episode 6)) as potential Demigoddesses for the Hall of Twins (House of Family & Relatives)

• Demigods; Ange may be in contention to be a Lesser Goddess

  • Princess specifically: Lacus Clyne, Rise Rousenin
• Enemies: (Undecided)
  • Ange: (Undecided)
  • Princess: (Undecided)
• Respects: Dawn
• Respected by: The Hall of Investigative Work
• Conflicting Opinion: The Halls of Heirs & Impostors and Impersonations
• Ange le Carré & Princess Charlotte- one of them is a pickpocket-turned-royalty, and the other is royalty-turned-pickpocket, and who is who is always a 50/50. Their nearly-matching looks extend far down to their childhood, and while that may not be as much of a factor now, they've learned, as spies, to disguise for many scenarios- especially when they need to masquerade as the other. Their constant swapping will have most confused at first, even those close to them in terms of relationship, and they'd rarely slip up in acting as the other. Their bond is strong, and so is their ability to be the other- among other factors- that made them some of the best spies in the Commonwealth of Albion.
• Their ascension was rather interesting; as the heralds of Carmen & Juni Cortez, Team White Pidgeon spent much of their visiting time in the Pantheon surveying everyone and everything. They slowly gathered intel of the many deities across the Pantheon through all sorts of methods, honing their skills and talents while staying under the radar. And for a good amount of time, nobody really seemed to care- that is, until Ange was caught in a restricted area in the House of Knowledge, perusing some pretty scandalous facts about some of the more questionable deities. However, when her trial in the Court of the Gods was finally held, it went along rather swimmingly, that is, until just after the end of the trial, when Eiki Shiki was just leaving the Court, she spotted Princess & Ange...talking about how they narrowly got away with that switch. Loose lips sink ships, and that resulted in a retrial, where Princess was rightfully deemed guilty for invasion of privacy, and Ange for perjury. However, Eiki decided to be nice about it all, and instead of punishing them, the judge decided that an ascension is in order, as their swap had fooled pretty much everyone, and going over the duo's history, she settled on ascending them under the Identical Stranger trope.
  • While they aren't necessarily approving of their methods at first, the Spy Kids were more than happy to learn that their Heralds (or at least some of them) had finally made the jump to ascend as well. These feelings were reciprocated by the duo, who were glad to finally be on equal standing with the Cortez family after quite a while. They've now begun collaborating on some, albeit, minor but unique, espionage projects together, as a way for Ange & Princess to get a better view of the intricacies and members of the Pantheon.
• Many are quite confused at first as to why Ange & Princess were ascended under their trope, so the duo asked anyone curious to meet up with them at the House of Costumes one time. When most of the Hall of Investigative Work arrived, they set up a little game- both of them would dress up and masquerade in the House's Vêtements Palace Illimité, and Ange would be carrying with her a gold card; whoever would find Ange, wins. After some time idly waiting, the duo exited the changing rooms and counted to 60 before the participants went after them, resulting in a frantic and tense game of cat-and-mouse across the department store. When Princess, disguised as Ange, was finally cornered by James Bond & Solid Snake, it is revealed to the two master agents that she wasn't Ange. As for Ange, as Princess, she was basically out of sight for the whole game, only revealing herself after a full hour of searching, with many coming to ask her for "Ange's" whereabouts. Needless to say, when the duo took off their wigs and Ange flashed the card, they were all in disbelief, and word of this spread quickly.
• The Hall of Heirs are rather perplexed at the duo. To be more specific, it comes down to the fact that one of them is the actual heir to their kingdom (though she is not exactly first in line) but doesn't want to take the throne, while the other is one who grew up in poverty but constantly seeks it anyway. Add to this conundrum that one may be the other at any given moment, and you have a headscratcher that has kept this whole Hall guessing.
• The Hall of Impostors and Impersonators, to put it lightly, are just bamboozled. Despite being an infamous Hall in the Pantheon for stealing identities and perfecting the art of impersonation, even they couldn't tell if Ange or Princess is one or the other when either person (or both) enters. This has put the duo on quite the spotlight, as one day, they could be having a very tense time with Doctor Doom over tea, and the next, rumors would spread that they had located where Justin Pin is and are in contact with him.
• Switching with royalty is like clockwork for the duo, having been in each other's shoes for quite a while, so getting used to each other's lives has been nothing short of interesting for them. Dawn once also did this switch with someone named Princess Salvia, who wanted to partake in a Pokémon Contest with her Togekiss, so they agreed to be in each other's shoes for the day. However, they almost immediately deduced this as something Tom and Edward would be more affinized with, but they still respected Dawn's effort at keeping up her masquerade.
• Cavorite had been a very important part of Ange & Charlotte's world and its development; the gravity-defying mineral allowed the rise of inventions like the airship and the C-ball, the latter of which Ange personally owns one of. H.G. Wells, the author for The First Men in the Moon, was surprised to learn that the duo had possession of such an object, and that they had hailed from a Steampunk world where it is in abundance and in practical use. In a mailed request, the duo took him on a tour through Albion to learn how Cavorite operated in their world, and the effects it had on its people and the world's progress; needless to say, he was more than impressed.
  Wells: To think that a world I have yet to hear of feels so much like one of my own...it truly amazes me, deeply. I give you my thanks, ladies.
• The following apply to Ange specifically:
  • Ange is surprised to learn that there's another Ange in the Pantheon...who happens to be a former princess...who had her life turned upside down on a very impactful day...who then turned to a life of hardship and became a badass hardass, developing techniques in order to simply live...woah. They both even have a friend in the Pantheon named Charlotte! (Granted, The blonde Ange's Charlotte is not from the same world as she is, compared to the grey-haired one's) At that point, something had to happen, but instead, they both more than understood their respective situations and upbringings, and came to be friends over those many similarities. When seen together, the grey-haired Ange usually asks to be called by one of her aliases, Chloe or Alice, to avoid confusion.
  • If Ange is one thing, she is incredibly smart and attentive to detail, so much so that it's almost frightening. When she crossed paths with Sherlock Holmes one afternoon, a simple bit of exchanged glances between the duo had given them ample time to basically know everything they've done that day, up to that point. What Ange did not expect, however, was that Holmes would greet her as Princess Charlotte, her actual identity, and nearly resulted in the young spy drawing her revolver against the world-renowned detective. Since then, Ange has calmed down and became friends with him, sometimes tagging along (and usually in disguise) with Holmes and his own assistant, Watson.
• The following apply to Princess specifically:
  • Despite being a member of royalty, Princess has more than her fair share of getting down and dirty if the situation calls for it, employing ruthlessness in her attitude and maybe abusing her status as royalty to get her other teammates into locations they normally cannot. Her sharp wit and quick cunning being well hidden behind her façade has earned her a kindred spirit with Lacus Clyne, a fellow princess with badassery underneath. They do tend to disagree on a few things- Princess isn't above using underhanded tactics and violence when it is really necessary, whilst Clyne is more of a pacifist and would like to solve problems without making more of them down the line.
  • Armed with The Promise that she would change the world into a happy one, one the real Princess wished for, Princess works tirelessly within the confines of her royal status to upend it and make the world a better place. This sentiment was shared with Rise Rousenin, who also wanted change, in the form of turning her school into a co-ed school in order for it to continue prospering. However, both were very much mixed in each other's views- Princess believes that Rise hadn't expanded her scope wide enough as she thinks there's other factors beyond it itself causing its downfall, whereas Rise criticizes Princess for taking her plans for reformation too far and deep, resorting to nearly cruel and very harsh tactics. Aside from these debates, however, they seem to be amicable enough as friends.

Since one bullet mentions them having a tense time with Doctor Doom, maybe he could be on their enemies list?

Any responses to Crystal & Medley?

It's less of "they're enemies" and more "they're fucking around in that hall and so they're getting fucked over but not making enemies"

also, for the kelpies.

Who was making the Animorphs' profile? I ask this because I have an Animorphs character on my ideas list, but I'd prefer to wait until that's finished before suggesting him.

@ Princess Charlotte: No relation to the Princess of Midland... although Griffith might take an interest.
