>>47116951Depends a lot on where you live in the pokemon world
Remember, mpst kids aren't privileged white bastards with corrupt professor friends gifting them starters, most people will have to actually bond with a wild pokemon
In my case, I would bond with a wooper since they are pretty common, can be found almost everywhere, and they are really good (they were even good in ubers at one very short point). I would be capable of having a positive w/l ratio.
Reality is, most people would have common shitmon and only the most priviledged would have legendaties or mythicals
And by priviledged I don't mean roch, you dumb neckbeard bitcoin holders. What use is being rich if you don't have any actual power. Priviledged means entangled with the authority.
