all good, it happens o7

Given they shrink down, and it has everything they need- it's much like the stables most keep their ridable animals here. Which too is confinement I suppose- Gyarados didn't much care for the stables when I found him waiting there for me in this world.

[Still- he didn't like the fact there were so many in a machine like this, on top of there being no knowing of where it even came from like this.]

At least a couple of others, yes- of course the man I mean at the moment is from the same region as I.

[Abomasnow leaned around a little, something catching his eye- before simply sitting with a bit of a thud given the pokémon's size. A bit of snow seeming to drift around him.

Houndoom pressed his head against Clavell's hand—]


Usually three pokémon -a Fire Type, a Water Type, and a Grass Type- are presented to a new student, and they go for a walk to get to know each other. Whichever the student chooses at the end of that walk, feeling more drawn to one than any of the others, is their chosen first partner. I tend to take the rest back with me to either be presented again to another new student if there is one, or I take them in myself- this is how it's done in the Paldea Region, at least.

It's better to get to know one another to make such a decision, so I feel.

[The bond that could grow between Pokémon and Trainer was important, no matter the path decided on. Otherwise there could be tension, and at that point likely better to release the pokémon than try to keep attempting to force something just not there-

Clavell tipped his head, watching Abomasnow for a moment; strangely content as he watched people in his personal bit of light snowfall.]


I hope that most do- it's a partnership after all, more so when a pokémon has decided they want to see what it's like to travel and work with a person. There is... quite the long history of it.
