>>39609099>You gave control of your life to another person. You are not you anymoreHow so? Also I'd only be giving them control so long as they meet their end of the bargain. Its not like I'm giving up my free will, I'm doing this of my own volition in exchange for something. That's called indentured servitude. It doesn't erase who I am or cause my personality to suddenly vanish into the ether.
If you are talking about giving up an aspect of my identity it doesn't change who I am anymore than turning into a pokemon in the first place did unless you are extremely fucking anal and its not a permanent thing its done out of convenience like getting a job.
>You are whatever your controller wants you to beNo because that is the type of trainer I WOULDN'T prostitute myself to anon. Not every trainer is like Cross/Damien, most actually give a shit about their pokemon and their feelings. Look at Ash and Charizard again, Charizard cost Ash a league, did he resent Charizard for it and force him to change? No. Because Ash respects him regardless of his disobedience. Its a trainer like that I'd follow if possible if not I'm sure there are plenty of others that treat me like a good doggo, not a junk yard dog.
>Your identity is no longer your ownOnly because you don't seem to understand you can be a servant, slave, or property and maintain your personality. Look at Anakin Skywalker.
