>>53961425I was never fond of Pokemon while growing up. I thought Pokemon as annoying/dangerous pets that every lonely and bitter kids would adopt. After my dad died, I realized that I was the one who is lonely and bitter. One day while hiking Mt. Coronet, suicidal thoughts crossed my mind. I was on a steep cliff overlooking Eterna City that day. Then suddenly, I saw a Riolu being harrassed by a bunch of Spearows. I saved her by crushing one of the Spearows to death with a log while the rest flew away. As I hug her while running towards the nearest Pokemon Center, I felt like my mind got connected to her. I found out later it was one of her aura abilities. We are together ever since. She evolved into Lucario on the second anniversary of our meeting.
