>>54243802I genuinely love the subtle implications of three Dragonites.
Zoomiies will not understand because they never played first two gens, but Dragonite was VERY RARE and difficult to train in lore. The only place where it even lives naturally is a small pond near Blackthorn, any else way is either pretty shady (gambling, poaching) or demands approval from elder of Dragon clan.
Lance got not one, not two but three of these fuckers fully trained and ready kick ass. Player's character, who is supposed to be the chosen one by Lugia/Ho-Oh/Suicune/All of them got one of these valuable beasts from Elder and Lance is badass enough to keep and use three.
