Your groomer fantasies don't manifest the way you think, even the legend quest doesn't say what you want it to say. This is why the series keeps adding pet like activities with Pokemon ever since the switch to 3D and even in HGSS. The relationship between people and Pokemon in-universe mirrors that of real people and real pets, which stems from Tajiri's vision of Pokemon as creatures that mirror real dogs and cats.
In short, stop having groomer fantasies.
