>Thread Question: What's some shitty Pokémon advice that your OC believes?Koa is generally well-informed on most aspects of Pokémon care, but he can be mistaken at times due to a few outdated ancestral teachings from his dad. Koa sometimes forgets that his partners are, well, creatures that reason differently different from humans, and can be confused when he can't, say, understand Chomper the Tyrunt acting out randomly. Koa would believe he's failing Chomper somehow by not instantly "grok"ing Chomper's behaviour, if anyone gets that term.
So yeah, Koa believes he just has to be "in tune" with Pokémon. Sometimes that works out, but sometimes that doesn't work out, and Koa can fail to find decent reasoning for what to do when it doesn't work out. When that intuition fails for logical reasons, he feels like he's failed. That's why I call him a dragon whisperer: he's been raised to think that his connection to certain Pokémon is special. In a way, it is, but that's more because he's a good kid and he's in tune with his environment. Koa is fallible and he has to learn to adapt the more academic knowhow of a modern-day breeder, for example. Hanging out with someone like anime Brock would actually be a good way for Koa to improve on this shortcoming.
