Pokemon Asks- Region Starters
Mudkip - What trends have you been caught up in?
“[When I was a kid, there was this trend in Pallet where this certain brand of sodapop, I forget which ones, had different pokemon printed on the inside of the cap. Sort of like how Snapple has those facts now? Only it was just pictures of different pokemon. I loved it, it’s all I could think about, I was like 8 and I was obsessed with collecting them all. It was a really short run, unfortunately and the promotion got cancelled after apparently a few towns over some kids started actually fighting over the caps. So I never got them all, and I doubt anyone else did either. Honestly, I forgot about it until I was thinking of an answer to this question!]”
Tototdile - How do you cheer yourself up?
“[I used to battle whenever I felt down, but lately Pikachu just hasn’t been in a good state for it, and I haven’t filled out a team yet... So what I’ve been doing has been siting with Pikachu and watching PokeTube videos? A lot of science based stuff, which has been fun. I like learning, so it makes me feel better for the most part.]”
Piplup - Share a time you felt you were at your best.
“[This may sound edgy or whatever, but honestly? I don’t think I’ve ever really felt like I was at my best. I didn’t feel good becoming the champion, because of how hard Green took it and how short of a period he got to be champion, and my journey was really hard. I’ve always felt like I could do better, be better.]”
“[That’s not a very satisfying answer, though, so I’ll give you this; I feel like I’m doing better now, than I have been in a long, long time. I feel like I’ve overcome some major obstacles, and I’m on the road to being able to do what I want to do with my life. I get to travel, spend time with friends and family from all over the world... I think honestly, despite everything? Right now, I feel like I’m at my best.]”
