Aria, being done inspiring little artistic creamer pictures in the lattes, floats from table to table, inspecting every little thing they have on the table. Everyone seems to find her cute, so you don’t bother calling her back.

“I’ve already arranged for transportation. You’ll need to meet me in one hour at the small airport on the south part of the island.”

“Alright. I’m in. But I’m bringing Vance.”

She looks disappointed. “Hmm? Well, I suppose we could bring him along in the event we need a sacrifice, but I was really hoping you and I could use this time to...bond. We don’t have room for anyone else, though.”

You feel like a Caterpie looking into the eyes of a Pidgeot.

“You’re messed up, you know that, right?”

She laughs haughtily. “My dear, a human being is inherently an evil creature. A parasite on what would be an otherwise perfect world. Humans can learn to control their terrible nature, mostly, and many fool themselves into doing so. But at the end of the day, they don’t belong in the same world as Pokemon.”

Ugh. Again, getting all philosophical or whatever. “What’s your point?”

“My point, is that one faces a choice. Fight helplessly against the way of things, or embrace what you are and be it too the fullest. You wouldn’t ask your Crobat to try to be a Tyrantrum and never fly again.”

You and her share a look into each other’s eyes. You know she’s working you, but you have to admit, if you didn’t know her history or anything about her, you’d want to stay with her and try to work on her rough edges. She’s appealing to the young girl in you as well as the bitter orphan.

Why so I feel such a huge plottwist coming with this cunt champ? Felt it coming for a while and I wonder when Gobble is going to be all like, she's actually a great and lovable person and just acted this way to mislead hornbeam or some shit. And then Hornbeam ends up being the real nice guy and the evil-acting-good-acting champ is actually evil for real. Some shit like that.

>>44694169

Fuck her, she doesn't know Vance. He's cool and respects pokemon. We knew as much from how he met Machop.

“Yeah. Whatever. So, I’ll meet you at the airport with Vance in an hour?” You grab your bag and start scooting out of the seat.

She nods and waves you off, but she’s smiling creepily. “Do be careful with how you break the news to Robin. She might not take it well.”

$@#%!

You leave, and Aria follows. You hope you’re not making a mistake, but at least you’ll be there to keep her from doing something too crazy.

You don’t have much time. You’ll need pack your essentials, tell everyone where you’re going, and get to the airport right away.

You’re coming up on the Pokemon center that’s on the way back to your hotel. It’s also a Pokemart.

It’s unclear where she’s taking you. It might be the ruins like before, but it could be pretty much anywhere else too.

>>44694645
I think we're good, but I can't help but feel that we should bring Devon along.

>>44694645
>You’re good. Keep going.
Yeah!

>>44694645
>>44694791
I agree with this, let’s swap for Devon.

>>44694791
>>44694824
Also supporting. Swap who, though?

>>44694791
Agreed. Are we all good on potions and restores though?

>>44694863
I think we should swap... Maybe Vlad? Or maybe Aria or Raistlin.

>>44694863
I dunno, who's been in the party the longest? Might as well get some rotation going on.

>>44694902
I'd be up for swapping Raistlin for a while.

>>44694169
Why is Violet so lewd?

>>44695118
Because we want it

>>44695160
Truly the biggest challenge anons could be faced with: resisting lewd.

You head into the Pokemon center quickly and dial up the professor.

"Kat! Congratulations on your victory! We were a little worried when they announced a review, but it looks like they posted it officially as going to you."

"Thanks!" You forget to feel weird about the praise.

"I'm guessing you're hard at work, am I right?" He cleans his glasses. "Who can I send your way?"

"Devon."

Devon hears your voices and bounces up to the view screen. He barks enthusiastically.

"Down, boy." The professor laughs. "I'll need to put you in the ball to send you back."

Devon fetches the ball and delivers it to Fir, covering both is slobber.

"Kat. You'll need to send a Pokemon over."

What? If we'd have gone Evil Kat Robins mom would have been our dark mentor/lover/mother figure? I don't know it would be weird and sexy.

>>44695474
Violet is for smutbins only anon!

>>44695492
Then we need more smutbins! Maybe she and Kat can mega evolve together! Through lewdness!

>>44695517
Poor Gobble is already doing tons of smutbins.
Clearly anons should contribute to lighten the load.

>>44695571
Was going to. I still feel bad for being too busy and easily distracted.

Anons, you shouldn't stick your dick in crazy. Or your fingers, or tongue, or anything else really. Or let the crazy stick any of those things in you.

>>44695619
Don't worry anon, I'm sure you'll finish eventually!
Tempted to try some too but it's intimidating when Gobble already has such fine smut out.

>>44695639
It's fine if it's not canon.

You swap Raistlin out and receive Devon. “Thanks, professor.”

“Any time,” he waves, “champ-to-be!”

You arrive at the hotel and run up to your room. Vance is in the common area, doing pushups.

“How’d it go?”

You explain what’s going on. he looks serious, mature, and has almost a superheroic look to him as he takes it in. Then he immediately dispels the illusion by looking helpless and scared. “Oh boy. Jeanine is going to kill me.”

You punch him in the arm. “So, you are afraid of some things after all.”

He scratches behind his head. “Heh. Yeah. At least you’ll be telling Clair, though.”

You look to your bedroom door. It’s closed, but the sound of giggling can be heard inside. You look back to Vance, but he’s already closing the door to his and Jeanine’s room. He mouths “Sorry” as it clicks shut.

You’re rubbing off too much on your friends.

Okay. Now, how to tell Robin and Clair? Robin almost died the last time you messed with any ruins. She might not be receptive to you going, to say the least. Clair’s obviously become more than just a friend, too. She hides it, but she cares, a lot. This is going to be tough.

You could leave a note. You know how people get when they’re emotional, and a note could calmly show your reasoning so she really understands.

>Leave a note
>Tell them you’ll just be doing normal training
>Break it to them straight
>Something else

>>44695729

>>44695639
But if she does it enough she can make Kat crazy! Then they're the perfect couple!

>>44695639
I wanna see Violet top Kat. Possibly by force, if needed.

>>44695745
No, they really aren't.

>>44695729
>Break it to them straight
Heh.

>>44695729
>Break it to them straight

>>44695729
>Break it to them straight

Possibly with a musical number.

>>44695762
See! You and Kat think that now, but a few days with Violets personal attentions you'll see the light!

>>44695751
You can see how other people might not share your filthy rape fetishes, right?

>>44695729
>Break it to them straight
We owe them that.

>>44695813
I don't think she would like Kat very much. She's an actual person, after all.

>>44695815
It's not rape if it's yuri.

>>44695815
I agree with him. Violet should work Kat until she's a carbon copy of herself. Preferably through sexual means.

Gobble Plz

You breath in, breath out, enter the room and gingerly close the door behind you.

Clair is tickling Robin, who’se nearly dying from laughter. She breaks off when she sees you, though.

“There you are! I-I was worried.”

“She wouldn’t shut up about it,” Clair folds her arms and crosses her legs. “Figured anything was better than her constant whining.”

Robin puts her hand on Clair’s and smiles. “She was cheering me up.”

Clair gets that same look that Robin used to get when you first started hitting on her in the showers. She rips her hand back. “Weirdo dyke.”

Robin doesn’t chide her. She’s looking at you funny. “You’re not coming to bed? Did something happen?”

You sit down and explain you’ll be leaving with her mom for a few days. You’re not sure what the plan is, and you don’t know how dangerous it is, and you’re pretty sure you won’t have a way to check in with her.

Clair explodes more fiercely than Zappy Dan. You only catch every third word because she’s pacing back and forth and going really fast, but none of them are good, and most of them aren’t things she could say on the radio.

“I see,” Robin calmly interrupts. She’s staring at nothing and perfectly still.

The clock ticks. You need to leave right away.

This is tricky. With one alone, you know what to say. but with both of them there, the right thing for one of them is the wrong thing for the other.

Who would have thought there’d be a downside to having two girls?

>Promise them you won’t get a single scratch (dice roll to sound convincing)
>Remind them you’ll have not just your Pokemon, but Vance too (Clair won’t like)
>Try to lighten things up. Promise a souvenir (Robin won’t find funny)

I think 4chan just lagged a bit. Maybe? I don't know.

Well shit, this is tough.

>>44696396
>No words. Just a kiss and go

>>44696396
I can't promise I'll come back without a scratch, but I WILL be careful. This is the right thing to do even if I trust Violet about as far as I could throw an overweight Golem.

>>44696396
>Just a kiss.

'I'll come back for you two. I promise.'

>>44696343

>>44696412
Well I mean I want smutbins. There's no way the story would take that turn. I mean actually it could have when Kat first hurt Robin and she was sorta you know cray cray.

Ah, who am I kidding, no we can't. Nobody will write anything except Gobble, and he's too backed up as it is.

“I can't promise I'll come back without a scratch, but I’ll be careful. This is the right thing to do even if I trust Violet about as far as I could throw an overweight Golem.”

Robin picks up her Golem’s Pokeball, throws it across the room without releasing the Pokemon, and you catch it when it bounces off the wall.

You gently toss it back.

“To be fair, your Golem isn’t overweight,” Clair offers.

You kiss her, then Robin on the cheek. "Whatever it is Regirock is protecting, I really don't want Violet to have unrestricted access. I’ll come back for both of you. I promise you that."

You turn to leave, but Robin catches you and kisses you deeply. “S-six days, or I’m coming to find you.”

Clair nods behind Robin. She looks like she’s backing up what Robin said as if it were a threat, not a promise.

You smile and leave.

Vance is outside, messy hair and goofy smile.

“How’d it go?” You hitch up your bag.

“She uh...assaulted me.” He grins from ear to ear, not even looking at you.

You give him his bag and pull his incredibly happy butt up.

The airport is small and dark. You find Violet chatting with her Blaziken. She recalls it when she sees you coming, and opens the tiny luggage compartment in the small plane she has waiting. “You’ll have to cram in the back.”

Vance insists on putting his bag in himself. “So, you and Emma can both fly planes, huh?”

“She taught me some things, and in return, I taught her.”

You all crawl in, and she starts the take-off procedure. Before long, you’re in the air, looking down at the lights of the city fading into the distance.

Vance drifts off to sleep. He probably assumes she can’t do much while piloting.

“Just you and me under the stars, Kat.” She smiles at you.

“Pretty. So what’s the plan?”

“Just right to whatever it is you desire.” she pouts at you while squeezing her chest with her outstretched arms. “Very well. We’re not going to Regirock’s ruins.”

“We’re not?” You slip a hand over your first Pokeball.

“We’re going to a different one. There are three of these specific temples in the region. I found this one long ago.” She looks back in time. “But I found something there. Inscriptions, puzzles, and at the end of it, a large crystal. I carelessly thought to take it, but then I was set upon by a Pokemon, guarding it.”

You relax a bit. “What happened?”

“I defeated the guardian, but couldn’t bring myself to capture it. I became disappointed in myself for disturbing things. However, now, I’m disappointed in leaving the Pokemon. I thought it was acting on it’s own, and nobly doing what it believed in. Now I realize it was compelled by humans into servitude. It’s the only explanation I can find.”

“Where does Regirock fit into all of this?”

She smiles. “Simple. The guardians are supposed to guard until the temple no longer needs them. Somewhere in this temple there’s a trigger to signal to the other temple guardians that their mission is complete. If any of the tribes at one of the three sites turned on the others, then they’d risk losing their holy site’s greatest protector. A mutually assured spiritual destruction of sorts.”

“So we just need to get to the end of this temple and find the switch to signal to Regirock that it’s mission is over?”

“Smart and pretty,” she compliments. “I feel like you’re the little sister I never had.”

“I wish. If we were related, you’d be leaving me alone.”

“Oh ho ho, ouch.” she covers her mouth sarcastically, then drops her hand onto your thigh. “I do suppose being related would have it’s downsides, I suppose.”

You carefully pick her hand off of you. You'll have to settle for Daughter-in-law rather than little sister.”

She takes her hand back without comment. A long time passes, and you begin to fall asleep.

You wake up to nudging. “We’ll be landing soon.”

The morning sun is just blaring into your eyes. Violet opens a small window and releases Blaziken. You wake right up as you watch it rocket to the ground.

“What are you doing!” Vance bellows from behind.

“Calm,” she turns back and bops him on the forehead playfully, deflating his panic. “Watch.”

Blaziken is a tiny flaming dot. You see it slow down before hitting the ground. There’s still a small explosion when it lands. A circle of fire breaks out, then you see it kicking and breathing waves down in a path.

Violet brings the plane around and lands on the flat, charred surface clearing.

“Well done,” she compliments her Pokemon when the plane comes to a stop. “One more step towards freeing more Pokemon.”

It nods, then she puts it away.

You and Vance crawl out and stretch. She produces a pan. “Breakfast?”

You see a Bellsprout and Vileplume come out of the jungle and inspect the cooled, charred ground. They begin to nestle in.

“Enjoy, friends!” Violet waves to them.

You and Vance take the opportunity to teach Aria Drain Punch. She picks up on quickly, thanks to Vance’s help showing her how to twist her body as she punches.

Breakfast is served, and surprisingly great. Even Vance has to admit he likes it. Violet offers the best parts to her Blaziken, though.

WIth that incredibly uneventful morning out of the way, you head off, following the champion. You tredge through the jungle for almost the entire day. It’s exhausting, humid, and just plain not fun.

You arrive at a small lake under the heavy canopy. The lakeside is surrounding by Slowpokes. Beyond it, there’s a Slowking. The three of you approach.

“Hello,” the Slowking waves to you. “It’s been a long time since we have received visitors. How may I help you?” It’s voice sounds like someone doing an imitation of a turtle.

“I didn’t see you last time,” she comments bluntly, not phased at all by the talking Pokemon.

“You must have come when we were busy with the human child.”

Vance stares, still trying to process what’s happening. You can’t really bring yourself to say much at the moment either.

Slowking gestures to the vine-covered temple doors. “There are clearly marked signs on each door, directing visitors where to take their offerings. If I may be so bold, what offerings have you brought?”

You look to Violet. She takes out a small plastic contain and shows it to the Pokemon. “A strand of hair, from my first born.”

Slowking nods, then turns to you.

>Offer a song
>Your dad’s hat
>The rest of that Persim Berry Jam you one at the small town fair. Good times
>An evolutionary stone

“I’m here to offer a song,” your voice cracks. “I’m a musician.”

He looks pleased. “What pleasant maidens you are.”

You have so many questions. “The human child. Did it look like me?”

“Yes,” the Pokemon slowly turns to you. “We were not sure what to do with it. It could not tell us who it was or where it came from. We enlisted the help of a tribe of Tangula to deliver it to the next human settlement they found. They left on a very long journey.”

You remember the drawings inside Sera’s cave.

“See how good they are?” Violet starts up again. “Could you imagine people making such a commitment? And do you see how even a single child disrupts their lives?”

“We do not mind. It’s our duty to help,” Slowking says.

“You poor soul,” she reaches down and touches it’s cheeks. “A prisoner without even knowing it.”

“That would have been years ago,” Vance finally speaks up.

“Many moons, Sir escort. But we are patient, and await their return so we can ask them how it went.”

“They didn’t bring her,” you inform him. “But she’s safe.”

Slowking bows deeply. The others follow. “We believed they would. Thier minds seemed made up. I humbly accept my punishment for this error.”

Violet looks furious at you. She lifts Slowking up. “They probably just realized how she was better off under the influence of Pokemon. You owe no apology.”

The others uncomfortably rise.

“What can you tell us about this place?”

“It is the holy temple.” He looks at you curiously. “The steel fortress of worship to the Aspect of Dialga.”

“O-of course,” you say. He obviously expects you to know that already. “Thank you.”

He bows and backs out of your way.

The three of you go inside. The temple is lined with stone and metal. Precious gems glow and give light to guide your way.

Violet sighs. “I remember her. The girl. That’s how I snuck in the first time.”

You and Vance stop. “What!”

Violet ducks around him and keeps going. “Cute child. for a human.”

“Why didn’t you say anything, or take her?”

She looks at him like that’s the dumbest question in the world. “Whoever lost her wasn’t exactly a caring parent. She’d be returned and neglected, when she was sure to be cared for here. I can read Pokemon, you know. I’ve never been wrong about a Pokemon before.”

“The princess-“ Vance looks ready to go off, but you put a hand on him and he backs down.

“She was kidnapped by Driftloon,” you tell her. “You’re such an overzealous hypocrite! A Pokemon took her and her parents never stopped looking!

She misses a step, then goes with you. “And yet she’s safe now, isn’t she? I’ve heard about the royal family. The son especially. How would she be today if she were raised in that environment, with an ambitious younger sibling lusting after her birthright? All it would take is a slip down the stairs.”

Oh that is such crap! You turn to face her, but then stop yourself. It’s not worth getting into with her. You can’t do anything about it now. You keep going.

She leads you beyond the obvious visitors section and through a door you’re sure has some sort of ancient variation of Employees Only. Signs that increasingly look like warnings are ignored as you go deeper and deeper.


Violet stops suddenly before the next room, and so do you and Vance. Weird looking crystals line the walls. Dust twinkles in it from your sudden stopping and you see small beams criss crossing horizontally.

“The floor is trapped. There’s a safe pattern to walk in. I don’t recommend stepping on the wrong panel, or trying to cheat by having a Pokemon float you over.”

“So, what’s the path?”

She smiles. “Admit things turned out for the best, and I’ll show you.”

>Fine. Tell her what she wants to hear.
>You can see the beams of light well enough. Have Aria carrying you between them
>You bet you can figure it out from the etchings on the walls

"Needing validation from humans?” You laugh at her.

She leans her back against a wall. “I don’t need you to say it for validation. I’m trying to help you, Kat. I know deep down, there’s a part of you that agrees with me. A part that can imagine two worlds, one with Pokemon, and one with people.” She checks her fingernails. “That’s an awful fake laugh you have, by the way.”

Whatever. “We can figure this out,” you tell Vance.

“Damn right!” He tries to get you pumped and gives you a fistbump.

Then both of you stare at the walls. You stare and scan and stare and scan and mumble and stare some more.

You wish you had brought Raistlin. Or Clair or Robin who could figure this out. Or Jeanine who might be able to read this. Vance is great, but this isn’t exactly playing too his strengths.

“Stumped?” Violet yawns.

“No!” Vance retorts like a kid. “Wait,” he points at her back. “Your posture isn’t right. You’re learning uncomfortably.”

She smiles. “Caught me.” She moves from the wall, revealing the section that you need to almost figure it out.

“Okay. We’re almost there,” you tell him. “We just need to figure out what this part says.”

Violet leans against you from behind. “It translates roughly to mean that time is straight, and time is not straight.” You and Vance look back to her. She shrugs.

Here's hoping it's Violet.

“Black route?”

“Yeah, I think you’re right.” Vance follows the sketch on the wall with his finger.

“One more thing, Violet watches, amused. “Once you go on the path, don’t turn back. Time does not go backwards, after all.”

“Thanks,” Vance says, grudgingly.

“You know Vance. I’m starting to like you too. I saw what you did for Sneasel, making his wishes come true like that. You strike me as a man who wants the best for everyone. A hero for justice.”

“Coming from you, that means less than nothing.”

“Youth today are so rude,” she comments. “I’m just saying, surely you see no real improvement in the lives of abused Pokemon in the future. Doesn’t that bother you?”

He looks up at her. “Well, yeah. But what’s the solution?”

She unfolds her arms. “Anything you can! The same way you push yourself to become stronger, you can push the world to become better.”

He turns his full attention to her. “If I want to get stronger, I do pushups. Making the world a better place isn’t as straightforward. If I’ve learned anything from Kat, it’s that the world isn’t black and white.”

She leans back again. “That’s a fine excuse. Saying it’s complicated and giving up before starting.”

Vance gets really worked up now. “I don’t even know what you want me to do!”

“You’re too scared to try to figure out how to make the world a better place because maybe you’ll run into some uncomfortable truths!”

“What does that mean?”

“You freed Pokemon from some Team Imperium members over the summer, yes? Well, ask yourself, why? Do you have a defined line where abuse starts and tough training ends? Where it’s acceptable and where it’s not? You act humble, but you want to be a hero. How can you be a hero if you can’t even define justice?”

Vance hesitates.

Violet continues on. “Deep in the part of your heard that you’re not brave enough to look in, you know people and Pokemon should be separated.”

“Well it’s a moot point, now isn't it!” He bellows. “Because that’s not even possible.” He starts stomping to the black route. His foot starts coming down over it.

You grab Vance by the shoulder and tug back. He’s throw off balance and stumbles backwards. “Wait! I’ll go first!” You dash past him before he can object or stop you. For a second, you were worried he’d touch the path with his foot first, or you’d stumble over him or he’d chase after, but you clearly stop him and go forward yourself.

You easily make it across and show the path clearly for Vance. He follows, the Violet comes right after.

“He would have been fine, you know. He was too worked up to stumble or hesitate.”

“There’s no way you can know that.” You watch her face closely for any tells of a lie.

“Don’t you know my reputation? They say I can always see someone’s next move.” She playfully skirts around you.

Vance walks faster to keep with her new pace “So you said all that to manipulate me?”

She laughs. “Some of it. People do lie." She pinches his cheek. "I don’t think you’re scared, Vance. I think you really are a true hero in this world. I think you can save anybody, from physical danger, or otherwise.”

He looks sceptical. “Okay, now you’re just trying to flatter us.”

“A little,” she admits as she gestures for his hand to help her up over a step. He instinctively grabs it and helps her up. ”If you weren't such a loyal man, I’d be trying to steal you away from Jeanine.”

He quickly but politely let’s go of her and as soon as she’s up. She’s lewd with Vance. Instead, she’s playing on his need to be seen as mature and helpful.

You arrive at another large room. There’s a crystal in the center on an ornate pedestal. It looks like the same pedestal that was in the other ruins, except you never saw it with what it was supposed to hold.

“So, where’s the trigger we’re after?”

“It should be wherever Registeel is resting. Last time I wasn't prepared and he was on me before I realized. This time, we can split up, one person grabs the crystal and works on getting it loose to agitate Registeel into action, and the other two stand ready to find where Registeel comes from.” She points to Vance. “You grab the crystal, Kat can keep Registeel occupied, and I’ll flip the switch that deactivates the other temples.”

“Sounds like a plan,” you actually agree with her.

Vance nods his head too. “It’s not boobtrapped or anything, right?”

Violet waves off his concern. “Would I ask you to do it if it were?”

Vance, not wanting to look scared, just sort of rolls with it and gets ready to try to dislodge the crystal.

Realistically, you can only direct three Pokemon at a time, assuming you’re not distracted by anything else.

If you had two Pokemon out, you could probably keep tabs on either Vance or Violet, or at least watch your own back for any unexpected danger.

But with one Pokemon out, you can easily respond to anything that’s going on.

To clarify, this is stumping me because Raistlin isn't the most talkative Pokeman. He strikes me as the sort that would sit down and meditate on a problem for five or six hours, working out the best possible course of action to take, and avoid asking for help. The bestest example I could think of is when he was wondering why we were in charge rather than him, but I can't use that. Not that I'm doing anything.

Anyone? Gobble?

Pop sunny day for Devons fire attacks? Kinda worried since RegiS has a couple of fighting moves that could be painful if Devon gets targeted.

Inbefore this is actually Regice's pad and Violet was messing with us.

>>44703539
i'd be a little more ok with it if she didn't flipflop on it literally every time she brings it up.

>>44703201
Nah Violet kind of sees us as one of the few people worthy of "owning" a pokemon

>>44703301
No, that isn't what it means you froggagging little kid.

Go back to 9gag.

Mental gymnastics are a terrible thing to behold. I want Kat to fuck the crazy out of her like some kinda lewd exorcism.

>>44703561
Fire > Ice, bro

Devon is stronk against steel *and* ice.

>>44703357
>>44703590
He's right Gobble. Better post Violets boobs.

>>44703538
Yea. they then just act like anything else with higher intelligence. maybe good maybe bad.

>>44703595
But then it would rub off on her. We'd end up with two half crazy girls fucking.

>>44703563
Nah she always hold the pokemon> people philosophy.

It's her thing about people that's always flip floppy.

>>44703615
Metagross can think like a super computer, it uses that intelligence to brutally murder things and eat them.

>>44703626
>half
Anon we're already at least half crazy. We'd then be like 3/4th crazy.

>>44703644
I imagine it'd probably just set up in a nice cave for calm contemplation and reproduction.

Y'all are surprisingly not helpful.

>>44703661
If you read Metagross's pokeex entries it's really fucked up. It smashes things with its body and eats them with its giant mouth on its stomach.

[Raistlin loves problem solving. He's like you said; willing to stop and meditate on a problem for hours, going over every possibility and trying to find the best one.

As for what would bug him, that's tough.]

>>44703558
He'd probably wonder why people act a certain way or why other pokemon aren't as intelligent as him. Stuff that can't really be explained by analytic thought

>>44703715
Maybe I should have chosen something simpler.

>>44703729
That's a good starting point. IIRC, he's read a bunch of books on human psychology, but that's way different from understanding it. Thanks, anon.

Type jokes at their finest Gobble.

>>44703777
Matters of philosophy usually stump analytic minded people. Also stuff like romance etc. he probably has no idea why Robin loves Kat, or why Levi has the instinctive urge to be the strongest.

>>44703808
>When Violet has Kat properly trained.

How would you feel if Violet challenges us to a battle after we finish up here with the Champion title on the line? Would you take it?
Even if we lost we could get a look at her team and battle style and still have another shot with the League.

You two are the best. Think I might have something.

>>44703854
Same guy mate, and thanks

>>44703849
Depending on how long she's been the champion I'm sure there's recordings of her league battles and relatively up-to-date info. No need to get our mons beat up to achieve almost the same thing.

>>44703822
>Not when Kat has Violet properly trained

You went full plebian.

>>44703715
>>44703808

Also, good god that core and those arms.

>>44703822
I really wished we had gone to train with her just for the chance to but heads and probable Ara, Ara bad touching.

>>44703883
That's only if we lose.

>>44703816
>he probably has no idea why Robin loves Kat,


"What's that Rastlin you had a question?"....
"Yes Rastlin I know I cannot get Robin pregnant"

>>44703890
Ara~ Ara~ bad touch is my fetish.

You take out Devon and Aria, and since you have a little time to prepare, go through some stretches and warmups with them.

Vance decides to stretch too. “Hey, if you’re so in favor of separating people and Pokemon, why are you a trainer?”

“If you’re such a fitness nut, why do you take breaks, or not use steroids?”

He mutters something about not wanting another steroid joke thrown his way, the gives a real answer. “Because you can’t go too extreme.”

“Bingo! I can’t just rave on the streets like a lunatic or try forcefully move people to places without Pokemon. I’d love for a world where my dream is possible, but since it’s not, the next best thing is ensuring people treat Pokemon as best as can be managed. I don’t lead my Pokemon as champion for fame or glory. They dedicate themselves to the betterment of all Pokemon’s lives, and I'm a helpful tool for them to do that.”

“So, as the Pokemon champion, you want to influence trainers to be better to their Pokemon?”

She smiles. “Among other things. I've said before, people can be useful, despite their natural inclinations. They don’t fit into things perfectly like a Pokemon, but they can help, if the circumstances are right.”

“And that's really how you see yourself,” Vance asks. “As just a helpful tool?”

“That’s as good as someone can be. I think if there’s redemption for human beings at all, it lies with Pokemon.”

Devon leaps up and licks her face, then runs back to you. Aria twirls in preparation, and gets ready to switch forms.

Vance rubs his hands together and stands by the crystal “Are you guys ready?”

>Yes. Let’s do it
>Wait, swap Pokemon
>Wait, you have a better plan
>Something else
