Ah yes, that's true. But with Len it was more that his folks didn't trust the new lot rather than they didn't approve of fraternising with them-
Oh, to see the faces of Rani's parents if they saw this plan! XD
I'd like to add some more characters to this crazy love nest, but Rani wouldn't get a crush on Len, ever. He just looks like too much of a cute little baby Pokemon...
I has idea:
So, Rokan and Shierk are sparring, when Rokan is affected by Static. When Shierk then has to pick her up, Rani isn't jealous per se, but she is kinda distracted, and this is where her attraction and jealousy of Shierk begins to build. Anyway, while she's distracted, her partner (Kreep, perhaps?) attacks and because she's unprepared, knocks her over or out or something like that. It'll work quite well if it is Kreep, because then he can fawn over the unconscious or whatever Rani and then Shierk can get a bit protective over her. The two girls are kinda forgotten about as they rest and recover from their injuries or whatever and the boys have an excuse to fight instead because their partners are out of it, perhaps putting in a little argument about Rani while they fight.
Whaddaya think?
