I put a lot of thought into this, and I decided- Jirachi.
Now although I despise the idea of putting my very average self into a legendary pokemon, here me out. I'm a fucking lazy person. I don't have a lot of dreams of exploration like other people here either. And unfortunately, I find myself most content when I am in my dreams, as I am a very lucid dreamer and get to play out lots of worlds/scenarios while I'm sleeping. It got so frequent I now have a journal to remember them all. Also in terms of legendaries, Jirachi is one of the LAST ones most people would want to be.
Here we analyze the drawbacks-
1- You're stuck in a mostly paralyzed state for large amounts of time. Making friends and having close connections with people is nearly impossible, everyone you love or grow fond of will be dead the next time you wake up. You have to witness the uncontrollable passage of time wrecking havoc on the world around you in the split second of a week, and there will never be stability in your life.
2- People shall hunt you down and try to capture you for selfish wishes, torturing you if they must. These are the most malicious of wishes they've had time to plan over, which could lead to your demise and the demise of everyone else. Almost everyone will see you as only something to fulfill what they want, for how could anyone possibly become attached to someone that's only awake for a week? Its near impossible not to be in a selfish mindset.
3- You're genderless and reproduction is impossible. This isn't a fetish thing. This is just the facts, as some people find having children and families an obvious benefit. But you're a Jirachi. No one will ever be able to comprehend and truly empathize with your life, that's how it is as the wish maker.
Now with all these drawbacks and constant despair, how could you possibly want to be a Jirachi? This is where things get tricky. (1/3)
