>>37632640>Had pet goldfish and stick-insects as kid. Briefly had cat, it had a bad temperament, shat everywhere and mum was allergic so crazy cat lady adopted it and I got a Tamagotchi. Dad worked with computers often had latest tech>Lived in Africa for a year as kid, had pet monkey, pet turtle, managed to catch a speedy little lizard with bare hands one day>Grew up in run down industrial city, spent most days as kid exploring abandoned warehouses>Early teens we would sneak into ruins of a blitzed cathedral at night, only open to public during day>Once rescued a caterpillar from a spiderweb, named it Mothra, put it on my mums favourite plant in the garden and visited it every single day, even through cocoon phase>One morning I went down and saw the cocoon had hatched. Was sad to have missed the spectacle but felt joy for the caterpillar knowing it had lived thanks to me>Later that morning walking to school-shit you not-a butterfly flew in front of my face and landed on my nose before flying off>Today I live in a big city with an awesome catGrew up in a house full of Sudowoodo and a pet Magikarp although Porygon was my first proper Pokemon after a bad experience with a Purrloin (they said it was a rescue-Mon but looking back I'm not so sure). Porygon and I rescued Caterpie from a Spinarak together though! Caterpie evolved quickly and the three of us met a Chimchar, Helioptile and Turtwig over the course of a year in Africa. A few years later, back home, a Duskull attacked us in the ruined cathedral at night and I'm glad he did to this day. It was tough looking after a Pokemon as big and heavy as Torterra in the busy city where I live now. Luckily my mum and little brothers moved to the countryside with Magikarp and all the Sudowoodo so he stays with them now. Apparently Magikarp and Torterra get along good too! Recently adopted a Smeargle for artistic inspiration, he's cool but spends most his time sleeping tbqphwyf.
