cynthia and cyrus come across some weirdo in the mountains while on their pokemon journey (definitely not volo) (will definitely not put any ideas in cyrus' head)

[esprei]

arceus style volo + fangs

Returning to my roots and hanging him up in random locations :)

"This again?"

"I'm still no closer to figuring out why this behavior amuses you so! What in the world drives you to this?"

"...please put me down."

[ginkgoguildmembervolo]

Hello, Volo. If it's alright to ask, what's your relationship with Giratina like? Are you both pursuing the same goal, ultimately, or are they different, but merely aligned? Which of you approached the other, and who calls the shots? Many thanks!

(Post game Volo)

"Giratina... That traitor."

"I thought it understood. I thought it truly understood that this world was broken. I thought it wished to challenge Arceus, that we were working together. I thought we were friends..."

"That's why I sought it out in the first place. It was the one being who might know the world before this one, the only creature who might understand my pain. What better company to have in a journey like mine?"

"But no. It turned tail once a puny human had the upper hand! Its' cowardice refused to let it face the Almighty's champion!"

"..."

"I suppose we are not unlike each other in that way."

(Postgame Volo)

*Bite Volo head*

Yummy head

(post game volo)

"Touch me again and I will not hesitate to stop you by force!"

[ginkgoguildmembervolo]

*Bite Volo face cutely then throw him 10k$$$*

"..."

"...Could you at least explain why?"

[ginkgoguildmembervolo]

*Cutely bite Volo face*

"?!"

(Volo backs away, just in time)

"Excuse me, what in the world were you trying to do? Is it a habit of yours to accost strangers?"

Quote from pokemon masters I think about a lot

[ginkgoguildmembervolo]

Ginter opinions?

"I suppose you could say I have a fondness for the old man. Though I've gotten in trouble more than once with him, and he certainly threatened to keep me pinned down rather than let me explore as I please."

"He's a good merchant, unwavering when it's required, cunning when it suits him. I've learned quite a bit from him, lessons I will put to good use."

[dailyvolo]

[ginkgoguildmembervolo]

Opinions on Drifloon and other ghost types?

"Driftloom is a... special case. According to the Research Corps, they just enjoy playing with children. But the rumors floating around tell of a pokémon who whisks children away in the dead of night... It's unknown if that's merely superstition, however."

"In general, the concept of ghost type Pokemon could be a bit disturbing to some. There are some myths that suggest these Pokemon are the spirits of long dead people. The thought of turning into a pokemon, instead of passing on, is terrifying to some. But is the difference between humans and pokemon really so vast?"

"Personally, with how ancient we know Hisui to be, I find myself unsurprised at how many ghosts of the past I've found in my travels..."

[ginkgoguildmembervolo]

Hiii!!! I was wondering, have you figured out if the Zorua is male or female yet?

Also, I boop the little Spiteful Fox and offer it some jerky before dissapearing.

-Shiny Zoroark

//I plan to return, I will probably forget to tho. i am NOT a threat at all btw dw

"From what the professor can tell, she appears to be a wonderful little lady. She's getting along well with Togepi so far!"

(The zorua takes the food)

"Zorua!"

(translation: Thank you!)

[ginkgoguildmembervolo]

(Asking Zorua things is cute lol) Why are you following the merchant man, Zorua?

"Rua, Zo Zoru! Rua Rua!"

(Translation: All the other zorua left, but he was alone and that can be scary! He smells like home too!)

[ginkgoguildmembervolo]

The asks are kinda funny though. I think since Zorua/Zoroark are born from grudges and hate people they'd somewhat vibe with Volo especially post-game

(OOC: You're not wrong! If Spiritomb hadn't been such a good defensive Pokemon to lead with, I wonder if Zorua/Zoruark would have been considered for Volo's team instead of Arcanine. But... its' defense stats are pretty low and having two ghost types may have made the fight easier than it needed to be.

I'll give him one anyways and if you want you can also ask it questions too.)

[ginkgoguildmembervolo]

So you haven't noticed that one Zorua following you for a while? Think it likes you but its shy.

?!

"..."

"Where did you...?"

"You're quite the persistent pokemon aren't you! Clever too! You almost caught me with my own backstrike technique!"

"...I could use some ghost types on my team. I had one in mind but it would be a shame to let a pokemon this clever get away from me. Seems to be quiet in nature, but not opposed to my presence..."

"How about it? Would you like to join me on my adventures?"

"Zor!"

(Zorua has joined the team!)

[ginkgoguildmembervolo]

Maybe it's the will of the Almighty sending more Zorua to you

"I believe this is more of a people issue. They're trying to offload their pokemon onto me. But they seem to have gotten the pastures and the merchant shop mistaken."

"I doubt the Almighty Sinnoh would interfere for something as trivial as this."
