League members of the same type specialty are all in contact and are pretty close. Out side of in-league friendships, you wont find a stronger league bond between two gym leaders of the same type. Similarly for the E4 members, though Dark Type specialists adopted Piers and Marnie (and Nanu but he's basically E4 but retired before he started) and while they're close, their close in their own way.
There are exceptions, of course, Burgh and Mina are thick as thieves but also will absolutely rip into one another in terms of art, Mallow and the Striatan Trio and Seibold exchange cooking tips, etc.
But every type group has a group chat and it's amazing to see the differences between them.
While the Fire Type Chat members are rather chatty (“even for old people @ kabu and blaine ” - a quote from Flint and Flannery), the Dark type chat will have Sidney asking about something and just "Read at 3:42 AM" followed by "lol you use that brand? Nerd" from Karen two days later.
Raihan, Clair and Iris make up most of the messages from the Dragon Type, but Lance can and will pop in when Raihan and Iris start bullying ™ Clair. To bully Clair. Cain Instinct ™ (Drayden and Dresna sit back and watch) but on the other hand the Psychic’s chat is very pleasent. They’ve all collectively decided Liza and Tate are Baby ™
Klara and Janine are in a constant battle in the Poison chat though. Klara sends “lol Jannie ur dad’s a dilf” and Janine screeches and deletes it as fast as she can before Koga sees. It’s a problem. Roxie thinks it’s hilarious.
Wallace and Juan and Nessa dominate the water-type chat with beauty tips, not that anyone really minds though Crasher Wake is a bit puzzled. Lana is also certified Baby ™ of the group.
Giovanni never left the Ground type chat and on the regular its just:
> Bertha sent recipe link
> Hapu sent three images
Giovanni: Is that supposed to be a persian?
Clay: get the fuck out Giovanni before I hunt you down for sport myself

If any of y’all try to get after my handsome husband Larry, I’ll politely deliver you your own ass. That is my man.

Hello, Trainers. One of my coworkers, @okd-art, took this photo of me at our Bulbagarden headquarters. He requested I share it on Tumblr, as it is where I am working as an intern for the time being. Consider it a 'behind-the-scenes' look at the organization.
...May I get back to work, now.

I know everyone wants Emmet to be in Z-A but here me out, I think the funniest thing Gamefreak could do is have another faller and talk about him before you see him like 'oh yeah, he's a little like you, he came from the sky as well blah blah. He also knows this weird battle set-up called double battles yada yada'
And you meet him and it's fucking Raihan.

Larry Dialogue that Raises my Eyebrows
Am I supposed to be getting the implication that the Elite Four battle is just a BREAK to him? Larry what are you implying, what is your 3rd job
Why does he act like he’s so inexperienced with Flying Types, when he’s been an Elite Four member (who masters their typing) for a while?!?
Why is the Treasure Eatery an option for the Player and Nemona’s final battle, and not like, any other gym?!? WHAT DOES THIS MEANNN
Whyyy is his head turned (it’s funny tbh) and whyy is Medali the closest place to Area Zero?!?! I Am Going Insane
WHY DOES GEETA NOT LIKE LARRY?! In the interview with her, Larry is the only gym leader she responds negatively to. Yet he’s a Gym Leader AND an Elite Four member- she has the power to get rid of him considering she does Gym Inspections. Like???
I know I’m probably Overthinking, but that’s just who I am and thinking about Larry makes me go insane. He’s so cryptic but SO NORMAL simultaneously
