Creative Flash Challenge: New Adventures

To celebrate the official announcement of Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon, here's a new Flash Challenge!

The Challenge

Create a written work, artwork, or trainer card about a brand new adventure.

Remember, an adventure doesn't always start at a professor's lab – and it doesn't just happen to young, rookie trainers.

Full details are below the cut as always - click "Continue Reading" to read more! :) Note that the way you submit works has changed a little, so old hands will want to give the post a read through too.[prebreak][/prebreak]

Terms

  • You must have an active Pokécharms account to enter. "Active" means an account that is not restricted by read-only status, and has not been banned.
  • You may submit as many entries as you like.
  • Entries do not necessarily have to be original - creators can upload works that they've made previously. That said, we'd love to see what new works you come up with!
  • Entries do not necessarily have to feature Pokémon characters or locations, or be set in a Pokémon universe. We observe that most works here do feature one or more of these, however.
  • There will be no declared winner and no prizes - this is just for fun :)
  • The theme is up to interpretation if you wish - follow it strictly, or use it as a bouncing-off point for something more diverse, or even subvert it entirely - it's up to you!
  • Due to the lack of judging or prizes, Pokécharms staff are permitted to submit works for the challenge.
  • The rules for the Creative Corner must be observed when taking this challenge.
  • The challenge will end on the 13th of March.

How to Enter

The process is slightly different for different kinds of entries:

Visual and written works (artwork, stories, articles)
Most works will be submitted via the Creative Corner in the usual manner. In order to mark your entry as a Flash Challenge entry, you should tag your work with the tags flash challenge and new adventures. It's also helpful to post a link to the work in the comments for this article.

Trainer Cards
To submit trainer cards, just link to them in the comments for this article. If you're not sure how to do this, there is a guide here.

Good luck, everyone!

Question. Would a walkthrough count as starting an adventure since it sort of describes an adventure or are you looking for something a bit more immersive?
 
Are we allowed to submit links from outside Pokecharms?
I could post mine from within, but it would be a lot better if it was posted in, say, Google Slides form
 
M'kay. I've been creating a walkthrough about Undertale recently. Its not finished, but is still very decent for the walkthrough it is.

With Psycho Monkey's question, can a walkthrough still work, has been approved by Teapot. This proves that my Undertale walkthrough can still work.

Because of that, I'll try and enter this challenge! I absolutely love writing challenges, it really gets my creative juice on. So, here is my Undertale walkthrough/guide. And if you just started Undertale, you can also use this guide to help you!

Here's my entry. Bit more of a symbolic connection to the theme here - aside from being a starter Pokémon, this particular image is the start of a whole new adventure for me - my first (hopefully, of many!) foray into 3D Art in bloody ages, and my first time actually working Sculptris properly. ^^
 
Ooh, I'm excited! I might be able to add more in, 'cause I'm hoping to write the next part of my Pokemon Topaz series Saturday. ...of course, that depends on if I can finish my Science project before that...
 
Ok... here we go... I dunno.
This seemed so fun when I was writing this, but now I have butterfrees in my stomach as I'm about to post this! WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?!?!?!
...Here. It's the story.
