>>19047576Pokemon is weird in how it brings up the feels in people. Let me share a little story, not parents-related, but whatevs.
>Last year, finally decide to go to my first geek convention, on the other side of the country. Tell my parents I'm going to a rave, they tell me to take it easy "with them pills".>Fly there, think about doing cosplay, don't do cosplay, wear a purple Gengar t-shirt instead.>Having a lot of fun, taking pictures, buying comic books, watching cool and sexy and terrible cosplay, playing some vydia.>"Hey, you wanna fight?" It's a 6'9, swolle, bearded, quarterback-looking guy cosplaying as Ash. Get scared, think he wants to kick my ass, he pulls out a DS, feel relieved, pull out my DS.>He has a team based around a Chandelure, it's all about supporting the Chandelure and he does the killing. He wrecks my shit. Notice that all of his pokemon have their basic names, except for Chandelure.>"Jesus, that Chandelure of yours is a beast.">"Yeah, I breed him for perfect IVs, and EVtrained him. I adore him.">"Cool, cool. Say, why is he the only one with a name? And why name him Dave?"
