while inside, pkn are dormant -- they’re semi-digitized and will lose energy slower than when outside of the ball.
heavier pokemon/sicker pokemon/weaker pokeballs will lose charge quicker
hc that pokeballs lose efficiency/battery capacity after prolonged usage -- you must transfer your pokemon to a new all every xx years, depending on frequency of use, caliber of ball, and the pkmn inhabiting it
e.g.: transferring a pkmn from basic -> ultra would give more comfort and charge
keeping a pkmn in a type-specific ball will make it happier
must recharge balls every few days/every week to maintain pkmn
feeding them real food and letting them out of the ball is better for their health
PC pkmn are different bc they’re completely digitized, while pkmn in balls must be able to materialize on command
only pokemon centers can do this (like how gas stations are for filling your car)
regional editions
each region specializes in production of certain pokeballs because of the level of industrialization and the resources available
pokeball prices vary due to accessibility of pokeballs and socioeconomic class of the area
some special smiths like kurt craft his own -> mostly found in more rural areas
urban areas have vending machines w/pokeballs, potions, quick heals --jacked up price, cheaper @ pkmn center
pokeball repair
srs hc that pkmn grow accustomed to and do better inside a pkball they know. if things go wrong, you’d want to repair the balls instead of getting replacements
hc that sometimes the trigger won’t work (e.g. during battle, @ home, on the job, etc)
the laser may be malfunctioning after prolonged usage or a charge malfunction
additionally, if a pokeball isn’t charging properly, your pkmn won’t heal fully, they may be more prone to sickness or they may not perform as well
the hinge may be jammed and the ball may not open, so that’d need a repair
this last one is a bit more hypothetical bc it’s based on an anime mechanic that i don’t understand: the shrinking and activation of the pkball
hc that sometimes a defective ball wouldn’t enlarge and would stay miniaturized -- serious need for repairs
pokeball customization
i am the least confident about this one, subject to change lol
honestly!!! if keeping pokeballs is the norm b it makes people and their pkmn more comfy, hc that pkballs are customizable
customizable laser beams -- whatever color you want, bro. its a laser light show in your pocket
maybe you can customize the “pkmn caught” sound, like changing a text tone on a phone.
After defeating the Elite Four and becoming the youngest Champion in history, I embarked on a quest to complete the Pokedex. A near fatal encounter with a legendary, previously unknown species resulted in a two-month absence and a shattered Pokedex.
I’ve since received a new Pokedex from the Oak Pokémon Research Lab, where I work part-time as a Junior Aide. While I still face off with challengers at the Viridian City Gym, I routinely travel to different regions to research Pokémon behavior and geology.
Welcome to the blog. Ask questions, submit your discoveries, request research. Remember to go outside and get into some tall grass.
just remembered this: green is one pkmn short of completing the pokedex when he was hurt by the last pokemon he needed and got his pokedex crushed. this is a hc reminding us about how he never finished the pokedex and had to start over lol
(green is one pkmn short when the total was thought to be 149. he, red, and prof. oak later realize that there are actually 151 pkmn, not 149. since mewtwo is actually #150 and mew is #151, it is not clear which pkmn green did not catch.
i don’t get how he could have only been one away from completing the pokedex given that red had all of the legendary birds, but i digress).
green has recently taken interest in doing outreach to inspire more children (and adults!) to embark on their own journeys. green neglects the gym to study pkmn in different regions for his grandfather.
he typically challenges young trainers he encounters to test their potential. green is unaffected by losing due to his experience as a gym leader, but he’ll still often throw a playful quip feigning shock about losing. out in the field, he likes to ask people who seem like they’ve never interacted with pokemon if they want to help participate in a small activity for his research. he might even let one of his own out to show the newcomer the importance of building a bond with your pokemon and how it can affect the pokemon’s performance. this is something he’s learned the hard way, having lost his pokemon’s trust and respect in the past.
he’s even been invited to give a demonstration or host a workshop at various regional trainer’s schools. he likes to invite his sister and sometimes incorporates segments for daisy to teach massage techniques. his grandfather offers him present research together, but green often denies his invitations.
through these random interactions he’s witnessed fascinating moves and battle strategies. it’s a rewarding experience. everyone once in a while he’ll meet an exceptional kid, someone he could see his younger self in, and invites them to his gym in kanto for an official match if they’re ever in the area.
The grim, volatile foe of the protagonist, who, through a series of inexplicable events up to and including attempted murder, gains grudging respect for said hero/heroine (and may even save them) and goes from intolerable to tolerable. You're very confident and have pep in your step. People who don't know you describe you as stubborn, but in fact you have a very open-mind. You're able to see both sides of the situation, but it's hard for you to admit that you're wrong. You stick to your vices and never falter, even if your opinion is seen as wrong. For those on your side, they look up to you and value your ideals. You speak with raw pride. You're straightforward and like to get right to the point during most conversations. You are more fueled by emotion rather than logic. You also love competition, being number one is very important to you.

1. What does their bedroom look like?
Green’s room is relatively neat! Don’t get me wrong, it’s not like he keeps it excessively ordered, but everything has a place it lives in when not in use. The fact that he doesn’t keep too many things in his room probably makes it easier to keep it organized. I like to think that Green is pretty minimalistic. Not so much out of intention, but just inherently. He likes to travel a lot, so fewer possessions mean lighter packing.
Okay, so I tried to roughly sketch out his room here. He has a lofted bed and a mini-office area in the space underneath it. His sheets are grey and he has a fuzzy white blanket. There’s a small pillow for Eevee to join him. There he has a table, a metal trash can, a laptop, and a lamp. Taped to the wall is a photo Daisy took of him and Eevee the first day he brought her home.
Next to the bed is a window that shines over his wardrobe. Sitting on top of this wardrobe are a bonsai tree Daisy gave him for Valentine’s Day a couple years ago and an alarm clock with radio functions. Sometimes he likes to turn it on and tune into his grandfather’s pokemon radio show. Sometimes.
He’s got a laundry hamper to the side of the wardrobe for convenience. And right above that is a coat rack thing. There aren’t many coats hanging on it right now because it’s Sunday and he’s doing laundry. He’s also got his favorite blue striped tie ready for every occasion.

In the corner sits a very comfy Snorlax bean-bag chair. It’s super soft. Like, so soft. Like, I’ll-only-sit-for-a-bit-oh-shit-I-accidentally-fell-asleep soft. It was a carnival prize he won (but for what game, he doesn’t recall).
On the opposite wall are a bookshelf and full-length mirror bolted to the wall. The bookshelf just has some old travel photography books, a couple self-help books, and a quick meal cookbook. The bookends are cute little pine trees (another gift from Daisy, bless her).
Next to the books is a Pokeball case, holding the 10 Pokemon Green brings with him on adventures. They’re all miniaturized before they’re activated, like in the anime. He has Pokeballs for Eevee, Gyarados, Pidgeot, Alakazam, Arcanine, Rhydon, Exeggutor, Tyranitar, Machamp, and Aerodactyl.
Hanging underneath the bookshelf are three important documents in Green’s life: a certificate for playing in the world tournament, a certification for being a gym leader, and a certificate for becoming league champ.
There’s a lum berry tree in his room. I figured this fruit was the most versatile in use for both his pokemon and him. Quick painkiller? Pick a lum berry. Are you burned? Bite down on a lum berry. It’s a very slow growing plant, and Green doesn’t quite care about the most-extravagant looking plants that are easily killed. This is yet another thoughtful gift from Daisy.
I also think the whole apartment would be hardwood floor because it’s easier to clean and also cool to the touch during the summer.
2. Do they have any daily rituals?
I feel like this kid definitely has a daily ritual. He’s the kid that “never made a mistake” raising his pokemon, there must be some formula he follows. I hc that Green gets up in the morning and hops in the shower, washes the sleep out of his eyes. Scrubs the morning breath out of his mouth. Styles his hair. After that, Green would make a cup of joe and resists adding more sugar even though that shit’s p bitter. Then he sits down at his desk and plans three goals for the day. Three new tasks he promises to complete by the time he goes to bed. Every day. This exercise gives each day a purpose and the satisfaction of being productive. It also lets him break down large goals into manageable daily objectives.
(The next part is what’s been keeping me so long on this response. Do pokemon need to eat after they’ve been in a pokeball for so long? Or do the pokeballs keep them dormant? Do they get digitally fed every time they’re charged at the poke center? This is about the time he lets all his pokemans out to eat some morning grub. It’s a little tough because there are 10 of them and some of them don’t fucking fit inside the apartment. I’m drafting an entire post just about pokeballs.)
He always drinks like two liters of water everyday. The boy just likes to stay hydrated. Before he goes to bed, he lays out his clothes for the next day.
He always takes a nap after lunch with Eevee. Gym challengers hate him.
31. Most prized possession?
Even though he didn’t have a long reign, Green takes tremendous pride in beating the Indigo League. He was champion once — at one point he was the best trainer in the entire world. That’s not something many people can say. As a kid, he was really angry at himself for losing the title so quickly. But that’s the thing. He was champion of the entire league, and he was a kid. That’s incredible, and he doesn’t want to lose that.
32. Concept of home and family?
I find this a hard question. I don’t think Green thinks too much about family, not anymore. It’s like, his current situation is the only thing he knows so there’s not much to think about. Yeah, other people have more complex, traditional families and yes, he wonders what that would be like. But life goes on.
Green sees family as the people that he trusts and that trusts him. These bonds are ride-or-die, unconditional support through anything and everything. Family is the pokemon who have helped him achieve his dreams, grow as a trainer, motivate him to persevere when life got too heavy.
Home is never in one place for him. Green loves to travel (why else do we keep seeing him and red in every game lol) and doesn’t like putting too much into his HQ (apartment).
Home is in the people and the pokemon he loves.
41. How misanthropic are they?
I had to look up this word lol. Green is somewhat misanthropic, but not enough to be like “people suck!” He likes few people, and even those people he keeps at a distance.
Like, the kid’s a gym leader. He deals with people every day and meets a lot of great trainers at every level who have a great deal of potential. (His gym isn’t the last gym before the E4 because, like in Pokemon Origins, gym leaders change their team based on who’s challenging them). He’s got no qualms about talking to cashiers or people on the street.
He finds it nice to be on his own but doesn’t actively go out of his way to be alone. If someone approaches him, he’ll have a conversation, he’s just more guarded about what he reveals and who he reveals it to. He really only takes an interest in you if you show interest first.
48. How do they express love?
Green has not always been very good at showing people that he loves them. He doesn’t like to be vulnerable, doesn’t like to let down his guard. He’s afraid of getting hurt, of appearing too desperate — “fake it ‘til you make it” is his motto. It’s easier to pretend you’re the greatest than to confront your shortcomings.
But that doesn’t mean he never opens up. He isn’t one to hit people up, but he always says yes. He doesn’t openly say it, but by investing time into you, it shows he cares. He is the type to do favors for you, like make sure you’re healthy, babysit your pkmn and plants. It’s a quiet love, but intense.
“Yeah, yeah I saw.” She dismissed the topic with a wave. Leaf walked back over to the gym leader. “So I had a few ideas for dinner. How does Alfredo spaghetti sound? Or maybe..” She started listing off meals with her fingers and saying what would go good with.
I’m serious! [ He slips into the sleeves of his coat, warm tingles crawling up his arms. Shivering at the sudden change, he starts down the pavement.
It’d been a couple months since he’s stuffed his face. Daisy had treated Green and his grandfather to all-you-can-eat Christmas dinner in Saffron, and never had he seen such an overwhelming amount of ice creams and pastries. He may have busted the button off his slacks, but it was completely worth it and tonight was leading to be the same type of night. ]
How does a buffet sound t’ ya? Feels like one of those nights when food’s the only thing on my mind.
Leaf heard a text alert go off but decided to ignore it as she heard her friend lay beside her in the grass. She opened one eye to be sure before she turned to her side to face him. “Whadda I think about what?” She moved her arm to a nearby cosmo and plucked it.
Leaf looked at it for a second before putting it in her friends hair and giggled quietly.
Shh -- I changed my mind. I’m... [ Still readjusting, Green feels his weight sink into the field it almost amazes him how small he can feel among the tiny flowers poking out from the ground, poking at his head. ] Just. Takin’ everything in.
[ He rolls over to face her. A smile half-tugs at his lips. He could count the number of times he’s been able to really b r e a t h e. ]
