Livyslabyrinth - Livy

a duo i wish we saw more of is shin & joe. i love the little art pieces/comics nankidai has made of them. i think they’d love bullying children on roblox

the tags and comments about keiji are so funny too, because that’s the only other character he hates nearly as much as shin 😭😭

he was genuinely so disappointed when he realized keiji didn’t die in 3-2.

NEW SCREENSHOTS OF MY BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER JUST DROPPED IMSOBBING

this is the majority of yttd summed up.

bonus:

original:

imagining yttd characters with a partner pokemon and the image in my head is too cutee.

shin with an espeon because he canonically likes cats. he probably wanted an umbreon to match the cat plush in sou’s room but eevee followed him to work on a day shift and evolved, but he loves his partner anyways :)

sara with umbreon because she wanted a black cat in the manga. the type matchups make sense to me with shin having the weaker matchup.

gin with a growlithe and q-taro with an arcanine would be so cuteee. they’re father and son to me idc 😭

joe with a rockruff omlll. his uniform would always be a little roughed up because he can never resist playing with his partner!!

a zorua would go so well with reko’s color scheme aaaaa. maybe having it use rain dance during live venues to preform with her!!

nao with an altaria because the artbook said she likes fluffy thingss. i could totally see her napping with an altaria. little bit angsty here, but maybe a mishima’s smergle she raises after his death

alice with a zebstrika or furret because he likes striped things. i like to imagine his pokemon would occasionally bicker with reko’s zorua, but get their ass beat every time 😭

kai would have a ghost time to freak the yabusames out like he did in ytts. maybe a sableye or a yamask, but i feel like he would look so cunty with a froslass!!

i have no reason for this one but keiji with a gible makes sense in my head. idk… i can just see him doing his best to calm down a rambunctious gible that’s chasing the other participants around.

anzu with a blacephalon because its clownlike and not as off-putting as mr mime. i don’t like mr. mime, and i also feel like it’d be an uncreative cop-out to give her.

kuramada with a primape or hitmonlee that he spars with from time to time. they have specially tailored boxing gloves :”)

mai with a fidough. no explanation needed. your honor, they have matching bread hats!! she lets her partner help in the kitchen and just prays the fda doesn’t swing by.

i imagine kanna with a sweets themed pokemon bc of her pudding bucket in ytts. maybe a milcery or alcremie. i imagine shin’s espeon has a timid nature and she has to let it slowly warm up to her and her partner pokemon.

i feel like hinako would have a giant terrifying ass pokemon, slightly due to the fact that she’s intimidating and mysterious herself. mostly due to the fact that i think it would be really funny for the shortest character to have a giant scary pokemon lurking behind them.

ranmaru is kinda gloomy, so i feel like he would empathize well with a mimikyu and they would bond in no time. his partner is terrified of sara’s umbreon and every time he tries to approach her, mimikyu panics and he gives up. poor guy :(

hayasaka with a really mischievous rotom that he cannot control is a really cute image in my head, so i’m giving him that

shin/his ai: no, don’t insert the card you found in the classroom! its a trap!!

the humble monitor:

as a cat person, shin, reko, and sara all preferring cats to dogs is so cute. i love them so much. my sillies (mentally anguished young adults).

shin has a cat plushie that meows when you press its belly (seen in his flashback)

in one of nankidai’s twitter comics reko and hayasaka are both asked by midori if they prefer cats or dogs and then he turns them into their preferred species (hayasaka as a dog and reko as a cat)

sara temporarily adopts a cat in the manga and is gifted a cat charm by joe, sorta like his dog keychain.

nearly every yttd ship fits into this. too lazy to change the pronoun in the meme, and a lot of the bl/het ships are boring to me, so its mostly gl ships.
