>>52994428Thanks a lot friend! Latias was my first ever crush when I was a kid. Having to manually catch her without the master ball I promptly used on some random legendary was quite the challenge. By this point she was easily my favorite mon and I still recall running around in Hoenn doing battles and entering her for the contests. Then some time later YouTube was created and I started finding M05 clips and I immediately fell in deep love with this cute shape-shifting dragon bird plane. Since then she has been living rent-free in my head as my one and only waifu and I have been using her in every pokémon game that I have owned. That same Latias now lives in Alpha Sapphire after traveling with me through all the games leading up to the the same region it all started.
It feels... weird. I am 27 years now and I have never been dissatisfied with how things turned out. I am fully self aware that all of this is fucking weird and I haven't really told anyone how I really feel besides two close friends of mine. I am neither socially nor physically weird and I work at a well-paying job. Literally nobody would suspect that over half of my live I have been in love with a fictional creature. I just don't want to let go of her as I genuinely love her. Sorry for the ramblings, I think I just wanted to get things off my chest to a community that might appreciate it. These threads have been great to find other like-minded people and I am happy to see I am not alone. I want to thank all of you for contributing!
