[Background: Saffron City's Pokémon Center, lobby, that nice spot with the comfy benches. Foreground: Avenger is propped against Rosie, who is snuggling up to Esuna, who is spread out halfway on Edges, who is curled up against Minerva, who is sprawled over Kayne's tail. All are sleeping.]

Truly. You'd think a good battle would have left them energized. I think the lack of talented opponents made them lazy.

[But Cecil sounds more fond of them than anything, the silly man.]

That's another badge earned, and four possible paths to follow. It's nicer than having to follow a predetermined route, I must admit.

[Even if he'll spend the next few days wondering where to go.]

I don't think I'm the ruling type though.

[paladinlost]

That's perfectly fine. Not everyone has the patience for it.

[video]

[seasaltkeys]

That'd be me. I can deal with a lot of pokemon, but not a lot of people.

[video]

[paladinlost]

Pokémon usually argue less than people, I have to admit.

[video]

[seasaltkeys]

Sometimes.

[paladinlost]

There are a few particularly stubborn ones, of course. Goodness knows a few of mine can be pig-headed.

[video]

[seasaltkeys]

Same here. It's really tough to tell an Aggron what to do sometimes.

[paladinlost]

I'd be wary of trying, considering their weight.

[seasaltkeys]

He's good at standing his ground. Thankfully he listens during battles.

[video]

[paladinlost]

Perhaps because battles are something people and Pokémon both enjoy.

[video]

[seasaltkeys]

Maybe. Or he just knows I expect him to fight.

[video]

[paladinlost]

That should be easy enough to realize, for any Pokémon.

[video]

[seasaltkeys]

Some of them seem a bit spacey though.

[paladinlost]

...Even extremely, at times.
