Mmmmhm. [ He smiles. And then pulls out the Pokéball that has his baby Kangaskhan, Julia, inside of it. She lets to sleep in the ball for fear of stepping on Linda's toes. He looks through the top of it to see she's sleeping, and he nudges it a little with his finger, setting it and he on the beside table. ]
Linda is my partner. We go into battle together, and we do everything together. If you could hear her tell it, no one will ever love me as much as she does.
[ ... In the corner, electricity sparks. WATCH IT. SH-SHE NEVER SAID SHIT LIKE THAT OKAY--- OKAY?! ]
I'm not sure where Julia and I stand, but I want to help her reach her potential, and I know I want to be worth some respect there. But to be honest, even with both of those, I'm still not sure I can get it completely. Pokémon are born of competition and challenge. Obviously, not every single one prefers battle, but having the ability to do it is their birthright, and the challenge is in their blood. I'm sure even Koo understand that, and some genetic memory brings him back to the nature of this human relationship.
Humans aren't as strong as Pokémon. But humans are also resourceful because of that lack of strength. In our world, animals are kept as pets, or lived apart from. Or livestock, I suppose. [ He sighs, and makes eye contact proper again ] But humans and Pokémon are a part of the same ecosystem and same world to those people. And well, to begin with, more or less any Pokémon is smarter than almost any animal.
