I used to take in stray animals as a kid and find them homes. When I first heard about Cubone in r/b/g/y, I figured it was a Pokemon that there was only one of, cause it was a tragic story and I didn't think the story was for EVERY Cubone. I was a big fan of Lion King, so parental loss was familiar to me, as well as the absence of my father. So, feeling terrible, I rushed in and found one. Much to my surprise, I found a good amount of them. I caught every one I seen at the time. I raised him, found out he was basically like Pikachu, except was the superior Typing, so I kinda felt like a better version of Ash. Then I found out this little badass had not 1, not 2, but 3 signature moves! Those 3 & skull bash made him my fav. I loved him even more with the Kangaskhan theory going viral. I am a strong believer and follower of said theory. Without the missingno. part though.
I never evolved him partially because Ash never evolved Pikachu. But mostly because I feared he would die if it became Marowak
I'd still love to see what's really under that skull. Legit canonical visuals though.
