It Is the conflict of the story. From the moment it got introduced the bond has been the story. We dont pull away from it we never stray from it. The bond has been the focus the moment it was introduced

And what the actual fuck is the biggest cliche of the pokemon fanbase?

yeah as a pokemon fan that isnt the biggest cliche in the pokemon fanbase. In the porn side of the fandom, ofc gardevoir is the most popular pokemon as not only is it a feminin humanoid to begin with, and females sell in porn, but also plays into the fantasy of monster fucking, power play (gardevoirs in cannon are fucking mosnters when it comes to how strong they are), play into the fantasy of having a woman who'd fall at your feet for whatever you want- gardevoirs will literally die if it's to save their trainers-this was a plot point exploited in the first mystery dungeon games, and because they look like they wear human clothing, it is kinda easy to put a gardevoir in any outfit you wish for whatever kinks you have, maid, bdsm, pet play etc etc.


So she is right with gardevoir being the most fuckable mon according to horny pokemon fans but turning thetrope on it's head like lily said by... wanting to fuck the gardevoir but not really because yall fucking nasty but ive secretly kissed the gardevoir BUT NOTHING MORE SHUT UP- is just weird... that's not turning the trope on it's head. that's just called being fucking weird.


The most common trope in pokemon fanfic is probably being an op self insert trainer because who wouldnt want to be one? everyone who's ever made an oc has made a mary sue dont lie.

in porn, literally monster fucking is the most common trope because people like the idea of fucking pokemon, wether theyre anthro like gardevoir- a more furry anthro like lucario, zoroark, lopunny etc, or 'feral-furry' like the eeveelutions, arcanine, absol, so on and so forth.

~~~~

Ifshe wanted to turn the trope on it's head;

instead of the human wanting to fuck the pokemon have the pokemon wanting to fuck the human-ooooooh wait.

i guess she actually DID turn the trope on it's head my bad

Actually, did you know that in terms of male human and female Pokémon breeding, Vaporeon is the most compatible Pokémon for humans? Not only are they in the field egg group, which is mostly comprised of mammals, Vaporeon are an average of 3"03' tall and 63.9 pounds. this means they're large enough to be able to handle human dicks, and with their impressive Base stats for HP and access to Acid Armor, you can be rough with one. Due to their mostly water based biology, there's no doubt in my mind that an aroused Vaporeon would be incredibly wet, so wet that you could easily have sex with one for hours without getting sore. They can also learn the moves Attract, Baby-Doll eyes, Captivate, Charm and Tail Whip along with not having fur to hide nipples, so it'd be incredibly easy for one to get you in the mood. With their abilities Water Absorb and Hydration, they can easily recover from fatigue with enough water. No other Pokémon comes close with this level of compatibility. Also, fun fact, if you pull out enough, you can make your Vaporeon turn white. Vaporeon is literally built for human dick. Ungodly defense stat + high HP pool + Acid Armor means it can take cock all day, all shapes and sizes and still come for more.

This is also a universe where a Skitty can fuck or be fucked by a Wailord. I don't think physical laws of compatability are an issue.

This is a pretty common thing when people try to deflect from accusations of making a shitty character, never taking into account that, while what they are doing is obviously wrong/toxic/horrifying, the story doesn't treat it that way. They are always somehow right in their actions or else validated by others when it turns out they're 'wrong', they never face true consequences or hardship, and within the bounds of the narrative are, yes, ultimately always being treated as 'right'.

Even when they're actions are objectively wrong, they're usually done for the right reasons (remember, comic!Lily's greatest flaw is that she cares too much), ultimately meaning that... oh, they aren't actually wrong. Every one of those things Lily lists makes it sound like the character might actually face consequences, but you get into the story and she has an excuse for every. Single. Thing. That results in Lily being fully justified and turned into a victim of circumstance rather than somebody who actively makes the wrong choices and never learns from them.

Didn't he accuse Steven Universe of not having the Pink Diamond twist planned from the start (even though you only need to watch one obsessive fan video on the topic to see that they absolutely did) and claimed some of the foreshadowing was just the writers setting up mysteries with no answers to fill in the blanks later? And then went on and on about how shitty and incompetent it would be to write like that?

Oh it's suddenly okay to write like that, huh Jerry?

-Then why did you name her Lily?
-Then why did you make her look like you how you want to look?
-Then why did you make her fuck the Pokemon that you clearly want to fuck?
^^Most people don't do these things. In fact, many writers that I personally know cringe when asked to write about themselves or about a self insert and try to distance themselves from the characters that they create. The fact that Jerry does them with reckless abandon speaks volumes for his narcissism.

so Lily is saying that CLily didn't follow her own advice and made G be codependent of her, but making G fall in love with her just made it all G's fault (mating bond, lies, abandonment) and that guilt made G do everything for CLily be happy which resulted in her having everything she wanted and still being able to shift the blame from everything to someone else, ignoring the fact that CLily is the cause of all G's emotional problems

G has all the flaws while CLily manipulates and endorses her attitudes for her own benefit, and still punishes G with constant "life lessons" as if she were superior to her. as if G were a pet

CLily is a mary sue and G is just a device

Alright I'll take the bait.

Spoiler: Lily Proves this knob right

Teaches Sam to treat Cala like a friend and not a pet, which as we all know only led to positive things when she did it and didn’t inadvertently make their friendship extremely codependent and rife with jealousy and insecurities and definitely will not have repercussions at all.

So for one. in case everyone forgot This is the character lily is referring to.

She only appears in a total of 6 set of comic entries in the series. She's the kid C!lily gave the ralts over to.
This is the moment Lily the writer is talking about

two. The issue at hand. we never see Sam and Cala again. Ever. So we don't actually get to see the consequences of what C!Lily said play out, if it even does at all. So there's that. Neither of these characters are brought up again in the comic, neither of them are seen again. They are just gone. And as far as we know, nothing happened to them. Because the story has no imperative to even look in their direction.

Comic!Lily - Saw no issue with having her only emotional support be G and not bothering with human companionship until her adulthood.

And yet the story explicitly never shows C!Lily as being any less capable as an adult, and the background of the story in fact tells us this is why Lily was super good at her job as a Pokemon League Enforcer. of course. that's all wiki information and is in fact, not actually in the story, None of this is in the story. The fact that Comic!lily is bad for being more emotionally connected to her pokemon is an "informed flaw" that the story doesn't make any really stab at presenting as being in the wrong.

Comic!Lily - Is stated to be the reason most of the rumors about her and G started in the first place.

True. one hundred percent so. Wish the story of the comic did something with that and actually had there be consequences for Comic!Lily tweeting about her pokemon love child.

Comic!Lily - Treats G’s growing feelings toward her as a regular consequence of friendship and not the culmination of G’s continued alienation from other Pokemon caused by her elevated status in the house that needs addressing.

Again. Informed Flaw The story has basically given up on showcasing any other pokemon that isn't a Gardevoir. The last pokemon G interacted with on screen in comic was Mismagius, in a comic update that happend 8 months ago. So, again, not wrong but doesn't matter because the story is entirely dedicated to Comic!Lily and G, why they can not kiss, and how they have to cope with being unable to kiss. Also I'm pretty sure those romantic feelings G are getting are because she's psychically mate bonded to C!Lily for the rest of their life.

So yeah, I can only imagine Lily deleted this post because she realized none of the things she talked about happened on screen and in fact proved this Straw-Knob right.

 

[TheAmbiguousLurker]

Listen guys, writing is super hard and concepts like 'flawed characters' are really complicated. I mean, it requires more than a few seconds of thought! That's a lot to think about. So, for Lilly's sake, I'll try to give a very simple explanation. What makes a character's flaws matter is that said flaws effect their role in the story. What does being a bad fighter matter in a story that isn't about fighting? What is not liking another character mean in a story where that other character is never a factor? What does Lilly not helping the rumors about her and G matter in a story where those rumors never effect either of them?

as everyone knows, the mark of every good writer is to tell what the flaws of his characters are separately to avoid presenting them in the story

so fans just need to know that the character is flawed without needing to see these flaws present or have consequences because of them

the famous "Tell, never show"

what
Hasnt the bond been the cause of most of the conflict in this entire God forsaken comic?

When has it been needed exactly?
View attachment 1613003

"It's undefined because shut up."

I think I know what Lily is trying to say -- in an episodic show, you introduce a conflict that's resolved by the end of the episode and then you carry on -- and she's trying to say that the arc with the mating bond being introduced is basically like an episode. Except that she keeps bringing it up, so it's an ongoing bit of lore building. It's also a situation where she's defined an entire species by the psychic bonds they create with their trainers. It would be one thing if this was a one-off story element -- say there was a trainer with a Gothitelle that had bound him to her psychically -- which would justify the concept being introduced, only skimmed on, and then set aside because, eh, that's the only Gothitelle that's going to appear.

Instead she made this mating bond -- an other psychic bonds -- and tied in all kinds of bullshit with Gardevoir into it. Since a Gardevoir is a primary character, this and all of its repercussions become incredibly important.

Spoiler: Writing rant under the cut

I mentioned before that somebody mentioned G using Destiny Bond to basically force their lifespans to intersect until such a bond could be broken (which would probably be fatal to both of them, making it a gamble) and honestly... she could've just used something like this. Instead of tying down Gardevoir lifespans and making up the mating bond thing and then elaborating on it but not nearly enough, she could've used something that exists in the Pokemon universe, and made G an exception that used this forbidden bonding ability not because Gardevoir instantly drop dead at 15, but because she was actually dying (since G apparently game from an illegal IV breeder, her having some kind of genetic condition might make sense) and in desperation forged a psychic life-bond with Lily.

Now you have a situation where the implication of mating aren't involved, where you haven't arbitrarily doomed an entire species, and where you actually could introduce this as a temporary conflict and then, once the characters work out their feelings about it, it would be a background element that didn't require any further exploring. Instead, Lily made a mess of a concept because she wanted to justify G and comic!Lily's romantic relationship, but doesn't want to be assed to think of the actual consequences to it.

Speaking as a writer (incoming powerlevel), I've had contrivances and mechanics like this pop up in my work, both as a worldbuilding thing and just in the process of trying to justify story beats. This isn't entirely necessary depending on the way you're structuring your story and world, but I like to have generally foolproof reasoning behind most of the things I write. I interact with people regarding a lot of these concepts and invite questions and conversation about them, and it's very important to me that I can answer the majority of questions that are asked about mechanics and world interaction. This doesn't mean I'm sitting there with a novel of notes to be able to explain obscure ideas, but I try to come up with a concept tight enough that if somebody asks me a question, I can logic out the response and it still makes sense within the rules and context of the world.

(Sometimes I get a really obscure question or one that's irrelevant to circumstances, in which case I make a conscious statement that I don't know and it's not important. This is different from being asked a question and just not knowing the answer. The former is a deliberate choice made with storytelling in mind; the latter is a logic hole that needs to be addressed.)

In the case of the mating bond I, as a writer, would be able to answer those basic questions about it-- and they are pretty basic and obvious. Why can't Marah just form a one-way bond like G did with Lily, for instance? Lily says 'Gardevoir mate for life' and just expects that to be the end of it. I'd say that because of the way the bond is created -- through the psychic melding and reconstruction on a subconscious level -- G and Lily have already had this aspect of themselves redefined, and it can't be remolded again without potentially dire consequences, especially while it's still active.

That took exactly as much time to think up as it took to type.

If you've made a mechanic for your world that's vitally important to its primary characters, either the mechanic itself should be solid and explained enough to withstand the gentlest of scrutiny, or you as an author should be able to answer questions not immediately pertinent to the story but pertinent to the world. This doesn't translate to dumping all of the information into the story if it's not relevant, but you should be able to say 'this is why X' when asked because it's a natural extension of the story. Because as an author, even if you didn't think of the initial question, your concept should be strong enough that you can readily conceive of the answer.

Lily saying 'it doesn't matter' would be fine if it really didn't, but the thing is, the current conversation is about the mating bond. It is immediately relevant, and Lily was the one who brought it up in the first place within the comic. Just saying 'I didn't bother thinking about it and neither should you' isn't a viable tactic when it is an active question, in the story, right now.

Not only are they in the field egg group, which is mostly comprised of mammals, Vaporeon are an average of 3"03' tall and 63.9 pounds. this means they're large enough to be able to handle human dicks, and with their impressive Base stats for HP and access to Acid Armor, you can be rough with one. Due to their mostly water based biology, there's no doubt in my mind that an aroused Vaporeon would be incredibly wet, so wet that you could easily have sex with one for hours without getting sore. They can also learn the moves Attract, Baby-Doll eyes, Captivate, Charm and Tail Whip along with not having fur to hide nipples, so it'd be incredibly easy for one to get you in the mood.

as we can see Lily does not hate lore in itself, she hates being responsible for making her narrative concise, satisfying and consistent, not only introducing everything she wants if it is going to contradict and break information established

so she treats a cumulative story as episodic when it’s convenient

EPIC FAIL
these arcs that Lily makes are static, things have been added but the characters are the same, nothing has changed, nothing has been learned and they just moved to a new situation,that only repeats the same information with other words, pass through the same melodrama and solve the same way, Avoiding and hugging

they only react to changes, but are not affected by them and everything goes back to "normal" (a child was introduced and the routine was not changed besides jokes)

and this lack of anything gives the impression that I'm wasting my time reading this, that my investment and attention is worth nothing since the information is worth nothing and will be discarded because of the author's boredom and laziness

Lily writes madhouse just like how she writes everything else, little chunks of story tidbits sprinkled here and there. its not linear and if anything madhouse is worse than her average writing because she relies on the art to show emotion as well as comedic bits, and mikala isnt a good enough artist to fully portray everything lily wants.

Spoiler: rant about mikalas art

I really don't want to shit on mikala for her art or anything because i genuinely think she tries her best. Ive posted about it before but as a professional artist who mostly focuses on characters and concept art (as well as other forms of illustration but thats besides the point) miks art comes off as incredibly beginner. From what ive seen shes been drawing at the most for 4 years at the time of me posting this and its almost weird how much she hasnt improved.

Mik isnt a comic artist. I have a few friends with degrees in comic arts and ive asked some of them to take a little look at madhouse and most of them told me the weakest point of the comic is the art and i would have to agree with them. Lily goes on tirades all the time about how much art doesnt matter in animation/comics but if the visuals really dont matter then why even make a comic at all?

Mikalas art is flat with very little going for it other than maybe how she does some expressions. She uses black line art or tries to do lineless art occasionally. Her line work never varies in shape or size and often looks incredibly lazy. She never uses any form of shading and all the backgrounds are flat single colors that sometimes clash drastically with whatever shes drawing (why is part of their house royal fucking purple). Her characters are also very weirdly proportioned, specifically any of the human characters. They all have incredibly long torsos and every female character has roughly the same bust size. Mikalas art style breaks the moment she tries to draw any over-weight character and its gotten to the point where people keep asking lily on her tumblr why she doesnt have fat characters even though she does, mikala just cant draw them.

Not to stroke my own dick but i tried to do a little comparison by drawing one of the panels of G and i tried to emulate a style that was still very simple but also something with a little more pop and characterization that i feel would be easy for mikala to achieve.

This is the picture i used for reference

This is my version (i didnt feel like putting in the text) this took me maybe 30 minutes and ive never even drawn a gardevoir before but some of the changes i made were varying line art weight and color, detailed eyes, more than just a line for the eyebrow, clean edges, minimal shading, and a bit of characterization to G by giving her defined eyelashes. I wanted to add more defining characteristics because if i were desining G i wouldve given her more unique traits like defined eyelashes, a certain dress shape, maybe a unique pupil shape, a more square/sharp base than the traditional gardevoir, basically i wouldn't have just made her the standard gardevoir because lily doesnt treat her like one. This style to me is still lazy and extremely simple but it really confirmed to me just how little effort mikala puts into her comics.

Ive posted about it before but as a professional artist who mostly focuses on characters and concept art (as well as other forms of illustration but thats besides the point) miks art comes off as incredibly beginner. From what ive seen shes been drawing at the most for 4 years at the time of me posting this and its almost weird how much she hasnt improved.

Mik isnt a comic artist. I have a few friends with degrees in comic arts and ive asked some of them to take a little look at madhouse and most of them told me the weakest point of the comic is the art and i would have to agree with them. Lily goes on tirades all the time about how much art doesnt matter in animation/comics but if the visuals really dont matter then why even make a comic at all?

Mikalas art is flat with very little going for it other than maybe how she does some expressions. She uses black line art or tries to do lineless art occasionally. Her line work never varies in shape or size and often looks incredibly lazy. She never uses any form of shading and all the backgrounds are flat single colors that sometimes clash drastically with whatever shes drawing (why is part of their house royal fucking purple). Her characters are also very weirdly proportioned, specifically any of the human characters. They all have incredibly long torsos and every female character has roughly the same bust size. Mikalas art style breaks the moment she tries to draw any over-weight character and its gotten to the point where people keep asking lily on her tumblr why she doesnt have fat characters even though she does, mikala just cant draw them.

Not to stroke my own dick but i tried to do a little comparison by drawing one of the panels of G and i tried to emulate a style that was still very simple but also something with a little more pop and characterization that i feel would be easy for mikala to achieve.

This is my version (i didnt feel like putting in the text) this took me maybe 30 minutes and ive never even drawn a gardevoir before but some of the changes i made were varying line art weight and color, detailed eyes, more than just a line for the eyebrow, clean edges, minimal shading, and a bit of characterization to G by giving her defined eyelashes. I wanted to add more defining characteristics because if i were desining G i wouldve given her more unique traits like defined eyelashes, a certain dress shape, maybe a unique pupil shape, a more square/sharp base than the traditional gardevoir, basically i wouldn't have just made her the standard gardevoir because lily doesnt treat her like one. This style to me is still lazy and extremely simple but it really confirmed to me just how little effort mikala puts into her comics.

Your art looks a lot better. Bolder lines in colors that look a lot more natural, beautifully stylized, excellent use of shading. I honestly think Mikala isn't super invested in this project because some of the art she puts out is a LOT better. Most of her work on Pokemadhouse looks like doing the bare minimum so Jerry will leave her the fuck alone.
