So as some of y'all might know me and @endlessartificer have been co-playing white version together, it's the first Pokémon game I've ever played and he's been into the series since he was a little kid. Anyway as someone who (regrettably) had a PETA phase in childhood — which was related to me not playing these games, no surprise there — I am constantly biting and chewing and gnashing on Team Plasma, because I just think they're a ridiculous concept. Imagine living in a world where being really really good close friends with animals is a cultural norm and still choosing to make PETA a thing.

So a while back we were looking at the Hydreigon line's Pokédex entries and noticed something: that thing has a severe self-harm habit

I think I said something along the lines of "my god, it's like a captive orca" and that got me thinking: what if the Hydreigon line is one of the only Pokémon it's genuinely unethical to keep?

I'm just saying, but Hydreigon and its earlier stages being one of if not the only Pokémon that cannot be kept ethically by a trainer would add a layer of incredibly dark comedy to it being Ghetsis's signature mon. Of course the guy who started a fake animal rights group to "liberate" Pokémon from humans so he could be the only trainer in the world would be the Pokéverse equivalent of a scummy unethical exotic pet owner. Of course he would have this fucking disaster creature that can't help but give itself stress injuries all the damn time. Lol. Lmao even.

I've been seeing your pfp edits all over my dash and loving them, but I was today years old when I realized some have been requests! I'd like to request hydreigon + genderfluid please!

pfft yeah, I like doing requests! It reminds me that there is people out there who actually use them :3

Little Pokémon BW hc/scenario: Hilda or Hilbert end up with Ghetsis's Hydregion, rescuing the poor thing from it's abusive trainer. It's at first a very, VERY mean thing that'll bare its teeth, threatening to bite. It thrashes when it's touched, flinching and snarling as it rips itself away from its new trIner, glaring at them venomously. It expects to be hurt when physical contact is applied, it associates pain with the hand of man lays upon it. It's extra territorial with food and bedding, as that was often used against it. It's easily overwhelmed by attention directed to it because it's only ever been addressed when exercising the will of its old master

It's never known gentleness, or love, or companionship. The concept of trust is incredibly foreign to the poor thing. It can hardly comprehend a reality where safety isn't something that has to be fought, or where resources are just freely given. It couldn't imagine a world where the stench of human doesn't cause a spike of fear and loathing

But eventually, it learns. Let's say its new trainer is Hilda. She not only gives it basic Pokémon food, but often other treats as well like Poké Cubes or macarons. She gives it a bell with a chime that just soothes all it's deep-seated hurt. She doesn't yell at it, she doesn't flinch when it abruptly bites. She knows it knows nothing else. She constantly talks to it softly and gently. She figures out where it likes to be scratched and stroked oh-so sweetly

And it comes to a point where Hydregion forgets Frustration because that is how happy it is. Instead, it learns Return as it increasingly warms up to her

It'll purr now when her hand reaches over. It asks for belly rubs. Maybe it even gets to a point where Hilda is told by a vet that she needs to stop giving Hydregion so many treats, because it's now plump and absolutely spoiled rotten. Perhaps it likes to lay at her and nap there, as there's no safer place to be rest than in its trainer's personal space. It'll bug her, demanding pets and attention. It'll rountinely bring her a ball for a game of fetch, no matter the situation or where they are or what she's doing. It probably even begs from her every time she's eating, begging for just /one/ more fry

So essentially, it behaves just like the rest of her Pokémon, who all act as her partners when in combat, but become just her pets outside of battle

And then, it all reaches a point where it goes from hitting opponents with Frustration at max power to hitting them with Return at max power

That's the fate I want for Ghetsis's Hydregion. The poor thing deserves so much better
