Would you be confident handling Pok?mon?

Now let's not just be like "yeah totally haha i love them" because that's boring and an easy answer. Nah, let's think about this. Most Pok?mon are bigger than like, small dogs. They're made of and command the elements. They're intelligent and have complex emotions and ideas. They're individuals. Would you be confident handling creatures like this? Which would be easy to handle? Which would you stay far, far away from? etc

Well seeing my agressive cat... if she would be a Pokemon, my house will be destroyed. So.... now it's better tho! But... yeah I would have build my house over and over again.

So knowing that... I'll take a small Pokemon, probably slow. I can see Slowpoke haha

 

[Hikamaru]

I think it's understanding what each Pokemon's body feels like as well as their eating habits since each Pokemon tends to have different requirements. Also, as Angie said you need to be able to understand how to communicate with that Pokemon.

I wonder if Slowpoke would actually be as easy as it seems though? Like, compensating for and dealing with its slow nature and all, would that be hard to do?

I'll take a drifloon and have it whisk me away to another place like the old man in Up : )

this sounds v scary tbh

 

[Nah]

I wouldn't be confident in handling Pokemon tbh. Part of it is just a general lack of confidence but like I'm not worthy of commanding a Pokemon

and there's also the whole communication barrier thing that was mentioned too

I'll take a drifloon and have it whisk me away to another place like the old man in Up : )

yeah but that other place is probably like PokéHell or something

 

[Desert Stream~]

Sure. The games have taught me a good deal about caring for them, and I would keep mine in a Pokeball most of the time.

I feel like I wouldn't touch most Pokemon unless I lived in a big house with a large field or something (looking at you, Arcanine and other big af Pokemon).

Realistically speaking, that can be a problem if you don't have enough space for your Pokemon to run about. :x

hello anime!Lillie~

 

[moon]

what's that supposed to mean D:

Have you not watched ep8 of the SuMo anime yet? Lillie lives in a big house with plenty of space made just for pokémon to run about and play in, so I immediately thought of her when you said it :D I mean, she can't touch pokémon usually.

I could chill with some friendly Pokémon. Like an Oddish. Oddish always struck me as particularly chill. I don't think I'd ever want to use Poké Balls even if they did exist, so I'd probably just stick to 2 or 3 petlike/plantlike Pokémon maximum.

 

[Winter]

that sounds better than here

 

[Lunar]

I think I would be, I suppose if you catch them and spend enough time and love with them they'd be like domesticated (more dangerous) pets so I think after getting to know more about them, I'd be okay :)

 

[VulpixVixen08]

I'd love to own a pokemon! They're adorable & awesome!

I am as slow as Slowpoke so I don't think it would be a problem ;)

I can handle my irl dogs well, so assuming pokemon wont be that much more difficult, then i think i could be confident.

 

[LadyLucina]

Having your own Pokemon is like having/starting a family. You have to be confident enough to take that big step, whether you're getting your first Pokemon or adding another one to your party. Not to mention you'd have to be able to adapt to the different sizes of Pokemon in your party and watch them all grow up before your very eyes.

In short, yes. I would be confident enough to raise my own Pokemon.

 

[Linyit]

I think as long as there is a connection/bond between you and your pokemon, its possibe to handle any pokemon. But it also depends on the space, that the pokemon needs. Would not want to live with a koffing in a small apartment etc.

 

[Aquacorde]

oh god Liny that sounds horrifying i never imagined...
also like. who the heck would ACTUALLY want to raise a stunky??
