hear anon out: Chantae getting a GF who'd be the replacement fighting type gym leader...
So fun fact!! I have a drabble I started a while back where Chantae goes up to the Galarian Pokemon League to argue about the kids being gym leaders way too young and all that, and they ask her how they're going to find replacements without delaying the gym challenge.
She tosses out her team of ghost types in response, and they press her about a fighting type leader.
And she actually has a friend she made a while back when she was still relatively new to Galar who is very energetic and positive, very active (while she is very not ), and I have tentatively named him Bruce!
So she calls up Bruce and explains the situation and he goes on a rant over the phone about all of the developmental and health concerns about so much stress so young, and keeps going even as he walks into the room everyone is in for this Big Meeting.
And Chantae just settles in with the other gym leaders who were there to support her (including Leon and Raihan) and let's Bruce go off and insist he could be the fighting type gym leader!
