Hoenn League Leader, Mauville City, Slot 4. Weather Specialist. Raised in Slateport. Most of my parents are in jail. She/Her, but gender is construct that I don't like or care about, so call me whatever. 20.
Things have finally calmed down. The Slateport build is in order, my Mauville Gym is appointment only for the next 2 weeks. Tate and the Mossdeep Center are still analyzing the "psychic eddies" of Deoxys' exit path from the moon, but it seems to be deeper in space at least. I'm traveling to Paldea.
I don't have a favorite type or species. I meet every pokemon I train on the same level and with the same amount of respect.
@rad.poke.surf is it acceptable for Mx. Pantazi to physically recieve my pokemon? I apologize I have too much going on in Hoenn to make it there myself. If you need to select someone else I understand.
Oh. How unexpected. I told Petra to put my name in, I didn't think they actually did. I suppose they can redeem for me, I don't have time to go to Paldea today.
Congratulations to all our competitors, especially our new slot 8 leader @fieryforecast.bsky.social I look forward to your bright future. I will post some final stats for everyone at home soon, but first, I want to pass the mic to my friend and colleague @wally.pokenavs.net who has an announcement.
Day 4 also sees our two fiercest competitors, Gwendolyn and Wally, finally synced up in total number of matches, and in wins. This is getting intense. Tomorrow they each have one match, and if they win those, they'd go head to head with flawless streaks in our penultimate match.
I normally disapprove of truncations or other bastardizations of my name but. That one is cute. Fun, even.
...did he really just tell it to end itself. He told a *god* to sacrifice itself.
I can't imagine why I seem to constantly be abreast of multiple legendary threats. All I do is tell people to stay the hell away from these things, and suddenly I become the expert.
You were literally a minor footnote to help deliver a larger point. You would have been left out of it if you didnt draw more attention to yourself.
If they intend to put those ancients against me I will crush them under my heel regardless. In fact, its more important to me that I do. I imagine some of the hubris for this comes from the idea that a "strong trainer deserves a strong pokemon". Failure with my team is no longer an option.
I'm not going to bother with the glass houses speech, Zinnia, we clearly see eye-to-eye currently.
I am appalled by the sheer hubris displayed by my peers. People who watched firsthand the attempts of my fathers to control ancient beings beyond our understanding for their own misguided gains, and watched as our region suffered as a result.
The timing could literally not be worse, but I am nevertheless prepared, centered, and determined to win.
I'm going to give myself an ulcer. I'm going to sleep.
...what in the fresh hell did you idiots do to awaken that thing. Is this you @kvnoichii.bsky.social ?
Apologies to my followers for lack of posts. I have been training.
Also. Having mega-evolutions doesn't make a league state of the art. Not throwing fire extinguishers at challengers certainly also helps. Galar is excelling on that metric.
What does any of that have to do with battling or battle culture. Completely irrelevant to the subject one should be interested in hearing about from someone in this career.
