>>49968164They took away his identity as a psychic type trainer to push his mentor's fairy type preference onto him. Broadly, that reminds me of control freak parents and parental figures who try to force children into becoming the perfect image of themselves, but portrayed as a positive thing. He abandoned half of his Psychic Pokemon in the process, spitting in the face of the bonds trainers are supposed to have with their partners. I appreciate what they were trying to do, which is allow Bede to find direction in a directionless life after being thrown out by Rose and no longer having his adoptive father's approval as a motivation, but it comes across wrong to me.
