hiiii <3 my name is kristopher!! he/him + 23 :] i'm an enviro science/agriculture student, avid birder, and passionate hiker + camper!! please keep in mind that i'm a white american trying to portray a japanese man as best i can; feel free to let me know if i get anything wrong or do anything insensitive!! i am not fluent in japanese (though im studying it!) so expect typos and mistakes when i write in it.
the pokemon lore i go with is based on a mixture of the games, anime, and comics, alongside my own headcanons that i've come up with over the years!! i'm totally okay with people interacting who have differing and even totally contradicting hcs to my own!! it's all in good fun.
that said, generally some baseline 'rules' (and i use the word loosely) that'll likely come up often enough i go with are:
pokemon are typically more intelligent than real animals and are treated as such. they have an understanding of human concepts that real animals don't, and can even communicate now and again. however, even humanoid pokemon still have animalistic behaviors, since they're not humans.
while multiple universes do exist, kichijiro is generally unaware of and skeptical about this concept. most direct references to this will be glossed over and not taken seriously by him. i generally just don't really like storylines like this and probably won't engage in them.
legendary pokemon are provably real, but rarely seen, and never documented as being captured by trainers. i won't ignore characters that have legendaries, but this won't be referenced outside of direct interactions! pseudo-legendaries are just considered to be very rare.
team rocket (which kichi is totally not in) is generally a more realistic crime syndicate that does genuinely awful shit aside from just stealing pokemon.
i reference real life places alongside the places established in the pokemon universe! they both exist in my universe. ie kanto is a part of japan, unova is part of the us, etc etc.
please keep the following in mind when interacting with me!
content warning: this blog may at any time contain themes of smoking, drinking/alcoholism, drug use, suicidal thoughts, pokemon death/abuse, veterinary practices, organized crime, guns, and non-canon typical violence. bolded topics will always be tagged! please let me know if you want anything else to specifically be tagged.
pelipper mail and magic anons are off.
fallers and sentient pokemon are fine to interact
i'm totally down to write literate threads if anyone wants! i love long-form writing and am more than happy to plot something out.
kichijiro is not a nice man! he's trying to be better, but he's a generally rude person who's done a lot of bad things in his life and has been in rough circles for over 20 years. he might be mean, but this doesn't reflect my thoughts on you/your character at all!! if this upsets you, please just let me know.
if you have ANY issues with me please please PLEASE bring them up to me in dms!!! i'm always willing to talk things out, and i'll never freak out on you or whatever :]
Oh so stay at home moms can have 4 cups of wine in a day but I have whiskey with my morning coffee and suddenly I'm "unhealthy" and "possibly an alcoholic" 🙄🙄🙄
Hate to break it to ya chief but those stay at home moms are also alcoholics lmao. They loooove to make their little memes and act so silly as if they wouldn't be doing a pretty great Charmander impression if they leaned too close to a candle.

//this blog will also contain my personal headcanons and worldbuilding. sapient pokémon exist in this canon and yvonne is friends with several of them. if you don't like that, don't harass me over fiction--just block me and move on.
//pelipper mail: on for things that can reasonably be sent through the mail. magic anons, musharna mail/malice, all other gimmicks are off. this blog only shares a continuity with other blogs i run.
//eebies, self-insert fallers, and sapient pokémon can all interact. i will NOT interact with fallers from non-pokémon media.
//yvonne is an adult and will sometimes discuss adult topics. if you don't want to see this content, block the tags "tw sex mention", "tw dick joke", and "suggestive".
//feel free to pester yvonne about what went down during the events of x and what she's doing now; she's a fairly open person and will generally be happy to discuss things.

Saw a dragonite flying off the coast and it was so wonderful and amazing until some lady screamed in what I can only describe as genuine horror at the sight.
(@sneasedtomeetyou) Apologies if this question comes across as ignorant but well, when it comes to bird pokemon I'm inexperienced in handling them. How do you train a bird out of perching in certain places?
Not ignorant at all, most people aren't familiar with the specifics of training bird pokemon.
I mostly use positive reinforcement rather than a punishment based system. It's the same as training any pokemon to stay off certain furniture or out of certain areas. Reward them for perching in appropriate areas, and remove them when they're in inappropriate areas. Make the places you don't want them in unappealing to begin with if possible. I have tinfoil all over my counters right now to discourage rowlet from going on them. Commands like no, stay, down, come, etc all come in handy for this kind of training, and that should be focused on first if they aren't already good with those commands.
The challenge is that unlike many mammalian pokemon, birds have a tendency to make a game out of mildly annoying you. They might enjoy the attention that doing something bad gets them, and like being picked up and carried around to move them away from something. However, they're also generally good at identifying emotions; showing that you're upset by the behavior can really help to discourage it. Don't yell at them or anything; just be very stern and possibly do something to show you're upset like leaving the room or ignoring them. This is only for if they're trying to annoy you because they think the training is for fun. This helps you establish the boundary that this is NOT fun for you.
