[S] That Pokémon Survivor VS The World! Chapter THREE

Hello, hello everyone!

Chapter Three is finally here! :D

This chapter was really fun to write, >!a full-on idol chase across the ruins that lasts an entire morning. Federico found it, Ribbon stole it, or vice-versa? Shannon had to step in to settle the dispute. Also, Aurora found the mystery box key while everyone else was distracted. Let's just say... she's not sharing what's inside.!<

Read the chapter "Seeing Isn’t Finding" here

I guess these are the chapter highlights

I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts!

  • >!Who do you think should own the idol, Federico or Ribbon?!<
  • >!Marcola's blindside: did Christine make the right move, or was it too early?!<
  • >!Ziggy looked completely lost at Tribal. Is he the next boot?!<
  • >!Now that Marcola's gone, who's the biggest threat on Other Tribe?!<
  • >!And who's the next to go home if That Tribe loses?!<

As I'm trying to write more on the flow than following a more classic Survivor edit, this cast continues to surprise me. Every time I think I know where the dynamics are heading, someone does something unexpected. Let's just say Chapter Four is going to be another mess.

Let me know your predictions and hot takes!

[S] That Pokémon Survivor VS The World! Chapter TWO

Hello everyone

Chapter Two is finally here! :D

I wanted to make sure this episode landed properly, especially after that first Tribal Council. This chapter dives deeper into the chaos at That Tribe (Aurora vs. Mira is getting spicy) while Other Tribe deals with their first real power struggle. Also, someone finally found an idol. And they're not being subtle about looking for it.

Read the chapter here

I didn't know who to put as highlight, so I made this collage

I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts!

  • >!Were you surprised by the unanimous vote against Ernesto, or did he have it coming?!<
  • >!Who's playing the best game so far on each tribe?!<
  • >!Aurora vs. Mira, who's in the wrong?!<
  • >!Sabrina found the idol while pretending to look for it. Genius or lucky?!<
  • >!Predictions for next boot now that Ernesto's gone?!<

This cast continues to surprise me with every scene I write because the dynamics shift faster than I expected, and I'm genuinely not 100% sure how to build all the chaos coming in chapter three. Also I'm calling chapter instead of episode because I thought it would look nice.

Let me know all your predictions and hot takes below!

[S] That Pokémon Survivor VS the World Chapter ONE!

Hello everyone
The first chapter of Pokémon Survivor: VS The World is finally here :D

Sorry for taking a bit longer than expected (also for posting this at this time of the weekend). I originally wanted to release the first two episodes together, but I haven’t had enough time to work on them at the pace I wanted. Because of that, I decided it would be better to release the season one episode at a time, even if it means the season will last a little longer overall.

This season has a very different energy compared to previous ones, especially because of the worldwide theme and how varied the cast is. I wanted to take my time introducing the players properly, showing their personalities, backgrounds, motivations, and how their different perspectives may clash or connect throughout the game. As you may figure it out, not all characters had time to shine due to simulator limitations

I really hope you enjoy this beginning, and thank you all for the patience and support

The season's cast

I’d also love to hear everyone’s opinions and predictions so far 👀
Who are your favorite players right now? What kind of boot order are you expecting? Who do you think has winner potential, and who might be an early boot?

This cast feels very unpredictable to me, and I’m really excited to see how people react to the dynamics this season. Let me know all your thoughts :)

[S] That Pokémon Survivor vs The World Sign ups!

I’m back with a brand new season idea for That Pokémon Survivor.

This time, we’re doing a shorter season with only 14 players, inspired by the Australia vs The World format.

14 legendary competitors will travel to the World Abyss to compete:
7 iconic players from That Pokémon Survivor vs 7 players from other Pokémon Survivor franchises.

And yes, they can come from ANY franchise, even fictional ones.

NO MORE SPOTS LEFT

Rules

-You may submit up to 2 pokémon. They can be from any EXISTING species.

>One player from That Pokémon Survivor
One player from any other Pokémon Survivor franchise

- Have fun, and if you have any additional questions, feel free to message me or leave a comment below!

- Please confirm here that you submitted it so I can check in the Google forms

Notes:

If you don’t have a character that already competed in That Pokémon Survivor, that’s completely fine. You may choose someone else’s character instead, though it would be nice to justify your choice in the form.

Although it's recommended, it is not mandatory to submit players from real subreddit franchises either. You may create fictional Pokémon Survivor franchises and players, as long as they make sense within the Pokémon world.

Please prioritize players with major accomplishments, iconic storylines, strong gameplay, or memorable legacies, since the goal is for this to feel like a truly grand season.

Also, don’t worry: the official All Stars season is STILL happening after this one. There is no issue with a player competing in both seasons. I’m simply waiting for the Survivor 50 simulator before starting All Stars.
