Fast Facts

1) Pocket is small. As in way smaller than the usual Pearl. 2) She was one of the first gems bubbled by Rose after the Corrupting Light. 3) Her sword was inspired by the sewing needles she used as a Pebble

-----------------------------

Backstory:


Pocket was created by Pink Diamond (in secret) at the Reef in an attempt to replace her original Pearl. Without any other essence from the other Diamonds however, the pearl turned out tiny (A) . Fearing what the Diamonds would say about not just owning another Pearl but a defective one, Pink gave Pocket to a Padparadscha in her court, telling both of them to "Forget" that Pocket was originally created for Pink. In doing so though, Pink somehow messed with the Padparadscha, making the gem's future vision delay severely. Having not been the first time doing this, Pink tried to convince Yellow that another "Paddy Sapphire" had gone bad.


Once Yellow Diamond heard of this, she marked the gem to be shattered. Pocket, having stayed hidden and hearing about her owner's eventual execution, ran and hid within the palace walls where she shape-shifted into a Pebble. She did this several times as she tried to find a way to hide her gem. Eventually, it worked, and for the next 4000 years or so, she remained a 'larger than usual' Pebble.


Pocket soon found herself amongst the Pebbles of Pink Diamond's Ship, heading to a new colony called "Earth." It was here that Pocket could have escaped, but feared Pink Diamond would shatter her herself if she even found the tiny Pearl. Through the gossip of her fellow Pebbles though, Pocket heard about a particular Rose Quartz.


Pocket eventually joined the Crystal Gems (B) and worked as a covert spy for Rose using her honed skills at shape-shifting, even if it was only into small gems. The insignificance of such gems she transformed into made Pocket perfect for the job. Who would pay attention to a random Pebble or Mica just going about their work?


Near the end of the Rebellion, Pocket was a victim of the Corrupting Light, turning into a tiny pink moth that pitched on Rose's shoulder. Realizing what had happened after seeing Pocket's bean-shaped gem on the moth's wing, Rose had her poofed and bubbled out of fear that the pearl would get lost.


Flashforward to 2019, Pocket, along with all the other bubbled gems, was healed in Rose's Fountain thanks to Steven and the Diamonds. Her scars were prominent (C) but after talking with Garnet, Pocket learned to love herself with her new look.


Pocket was last seen in Little Homeworld, working at Little Home School as a seamstress for Gems that wanted to try human clothing but couldn't find any in their size.

I'm hoping to post up pictures of "Pebble Pocket" and her Corrupted Moth form soon.
