>>55181601The most obvious reason for his melty is always Ogerpon choosing us over him. He's not even that upset about us lying once he meets Ogerpon in person. But then, when he tries to give her the mask, she doesn't accept it from him and is scared of him and you can see he's visibly hurt by that. He feels left out and isolated because Ogerpon likes us AND on top of that, Carmine also likes us now too. I feel like he decided to opt out of returning the masks together with us because he couldn't handle the third wheeling.
