The Oathkeepers are made up of a singular Latios and Latias and have been dispatched to battlefields all across Pokènoa. Their first involved conflict was the Unovan Draconic Civil War, and their most recent was the Kanto - Johto War of Annexation.

While all Lati's have direct orders from Arceus for Guardianship over certain earthly domains, the Oathkeepers serve under the command of High Priestess Victini as her personal Army. Rumors are that they each served directly underneath each brother during the Draconic Unovan Civil War before Lady Victini recruited them to her ranks.

Ever since the disappearance of high priestess Victini, they have been reassigned to guardianship duties, like the rest of us. In the time they have been reassigned, they have provided the council with invaluable information on Human society during this time, deciding to blend amongst them as their fellow Pokemon. However, until Lady Victini's return to the council, they are sworn by oath to never interfere with human governments ever again.

Peacekeepers for some, warmongers for others, they are undeniably the most proficient killers out of the High-Lati council. Only time will tell if they are needed once more to bring any conflict to its swift end and break their oath.

- Scribe July of the High Lati Council.

how strong are the pokenoa weakest to strongest, not in a battle sense in a physical sense, though if you also wanna rank battle ability that's cool too

Waiting for my order of korean fried chicken so I'll answer.

In terms of physical strength, that goes to Punch Baby Akari. I'm sorry but she's been raised by Pokemon which has affected her development so yee, stronk.

After her, it's Brie. Brie is a bit special becaise of her added fae and if you haven't noticed too, psychic (she's been around them so long, you might start seeing something)

Then it's Scarnoa, because of her birds but also where she was living before Koraidon found her.

After her, it's Sawyer, because she's been holding back so long, but she is also gaining resistances left and right due to current circumstances. She isn't anything like Akari, but she will scratch and bite like Brie.

Alolan Noa is at the bottom, because she is actually the youngest, but she also has th3 most potential in terms of later development. :V

Might see something after hanging out with Hau and Gladion, and also raising a Dusk Lycanroc and also a Cosmog - that is not nebby. Gotta find someone to tke you through space after all to save nebby

Munday Tuesday Lore Post - Unovan Kingdoms and Wars

| Light and Dark Stones |

Pictured: Icirrus City Museum of History

Twin Heroes

At the end of a struggle for independence from the Paldean Empire, two human brothers arose from the chaos to bring an end to Paldean rule in the region. 

These two brothers were heralded as the Twin Heroes, backed by an all powerful dragon. 

The brothers agreed that they needed to be ready in the potential event of another invasion. The Twin Heroes dreamed of a unified nation, leading to them split their dragon and travel eastward and westward to strengthen their numbers.

In the West, the Vidraco Kingdom started as a conglomerate of various tribes indigenous to the region. Composed of draconic cultures of harsh lands, they came to recognize the strength of the Hero of Ideals.

In the East, the Vellumblanc Kingdom combined the native population with the remnants of Paldean and Kalosian colonists. Benevolently led by the Hero of Truth, Vellumblanc flourished as a contender for world trade. 

The First Unovan Civil War

When the brothers met again after twenty years, in what is now known as Relic Castle, they disagreed with each others’ methods and ideologies. In the name of their kings, the people of Vidraco and Vellumblanc fought a bloody five-year war before an armistice was signed.

With no clear winner, both kingdoms believed that they lost. Vellumblanc and Vidraco were ravaged, with social and economic livelihoods taking a downturn. Ten years of misery passed, ending with the untimely demise of both kings, distraught as their dream of a unified region fell apart.

The Second Unovan Civil War

The kingdoms and dragons were inherited by the Twin Heroes’ sons, both of whom grew restless at the inaction of their fathers post-armistice. In their inexperience, the new kings disregarded their advisors and continued the war. Although a breaking of armistice means the continuation of the first war, this new conflict is still considered by most to be the second Unovan Civil War.

Not long after the fighting began, the commonwealth of each kingdom paid a higher price in food, resources, and population in order to continue the fight. The people of these two kingdoms, no longer enchanted by the benevolence of their old kings, had enough of the conflict. A new middle faction was born from insurgency and rebellion, with the main driving force being none other than the draconic shell left behind of Reshiram and Zekrom's split: Kyurem.

Vidraco and Vellumblanc, slowly hemorrhaging their citizens to this new united faction, couldn't fight each other and an insurgency at the same time. Before long, both kingdoms crumbled and the Unovan Republic rose from their ashes.

Most of the events of the second civil war are shrouded in mystery. While each kingdom regarded the preservation of history to be paramount, much of it was lost. Traces of the times are strewn about everywhere, with little to be gained from carved stones, written parchment, or glyphs on the walls of Relic Castle and the Abyssal Ruins…

… and that’s by design. 

Just as the Order intended.

Munday Side Stories: Mewtwo and Red

The masterball was the newest tech, meant to restrain even the toughest of pokemon in medical stasis. Even him. So, as he materialized back in Cerulean Cave, he was curious more than anything else.

"Did you release me to gloat? Or do wish to fight once more?"

No fear. No lack in confidence. Only pure combat readiness, confidence, and willingness to jump in front of their trainer.

How infuriating.

It's been days since the fight, and he hasn't heard as much as a pin drop outside the ball. To be met with a box of pokeballs, food, and medical supplies piqued his curiosity even more.

He sensed that they weren't alone.

"If you think that this is some kind of play to win me over, you're wrong.

They don't deserve to be alive. What kind of self-respecting life form deserves to live if they've given up their will to do so?!"

"It was me who destroyed the labs, ME. While I fought to escape, they never ONCE stood against their captors! They submitted themselves, rolled themselves over to die! They don't deserve to breathe my air, to occupy my space! They're too WEAK!

They-"

His body tenses as he turns back to them, freezing as his eyes met theirs.

He's the first to look away.

MUNDAY LORE POST - Light and Dark Stones

DRAGON STONES 0112 CE Unovan Nacrene Museum 0005.A/B Replica by Edge Precision Works

These dark and light stones are said to hold the dormant forms of the Legendary Dragons, Reshiram and Zekrom.

The creation of these stones is still one shrouded in mystery, but the leading theory is that the dragons destroyed one another in battle at the end of the Second Unovan Civil War. These two stones were all that remained of the carnage, and they changed into the light and dark stones we know of, today.

Other popular theories amongst anthropologists are: the dragons were not destroyed, but put in slumber by Kyurem; once met with a king or queen they seem worthy, they will awaken from these stones; and that this is the template used for the modern day pokeball.

Munday Lore Post: Threat Assessment - Humanity

Preface:

I have made it my goal to live amongst them, so my perception is understandably biased. That being said, like my last assessment and the ones before this one, I still wholeheartedly believe that humanity should be inducted into the Order of Arceus.

Description:

Humans are bipedal mammals that exhibit anomalous behaviors, bodily functions, and capabilities. Their genetics are a scrambled mess. The average human holds little to no Aura, Psychic Abilities, or Physical Strengths that would put them on par with even the mildest of pokemon.

Their offspring are even born in extremely vulnerable conditions, as opposed to pokemon who have proper time to incubate into functional sapient beings.

Humanity, as a whole, is fragile and anomalous. It's almost as if their existence was a mistake.

If you asked me last assessment, classifying them as pokemon would be erroneous. However, their bodies have been slowly adapting over the past century. More can access latent aura abilities. More psychics are born. Their tolerances to pain and stress are increasing, as well as their inherent physical strength.

Their lower lifespans and fragile nature is nothing but an obstacle to overcome. Their ability to innovate is unmatched, even in comparison to our artificers. If they have a problem, they will brute force their way to a solution, even if some of the results end in certain death. They've built complex tools and machines; flown, swam, and lived through environments they were never meant to be in; and have bested the odds time and time again. It's as fascinating as it is inspiring.

Assessment:

Humanity's ability to cooperate with each other and other pokemon are unparalleled amongst any other pokemon. Arguably, if life was a competition as to see who can build the most complex societies, humanity would come first "by a country mile," as the Unovans call it. I'd argue that it even puts the Order to shame.

Humanity is coming into another renaissance, this time, surrounding culture and cooperation after their previous industrial renaissance. International cooperation is at an all time high, and continuing to rise. This time, I believe that they intend to bring the rest of existence with them on this journey.

Pokemon life, as we know it, is about to become fundamentally different than ever before. Soon, there may even be a time where pokemon can innovate as well as humanity, given that they have the societal structure to no longer worry about basic needs.

It's always been our responsibility, as relfected in The Order's Creed, to guide existence towards enlightenment, but the relationship has been mutual. The Order uses their technology, re-organized multiple times to match their societal structures, and took inspiration from their innovations to create our own.

I believe that Humanity is the overt counterpart to our covert role in history. It's as if they have taken our role as Shepherds, Stewards, Scribes, Artificers, and even Councilors, to guide the world towards peace and enlightenment, and I still stand by this claim after their tumultuous times during and after the Kanto-Johto War. If anything, it's a testament to humanity's inherent cooperative nature that they have only had a full scale conflict every one thousand years.

This will undoubtedly be another contentious decision, but I motion that humanity be inducted into the Order. I believe that humanity will be able to do astronomically more things with Arceus's blessing than we ever can. I ask you all to reconsider your past decisions.

Scribe and Artificer J.

Munday Tuesday Lore Post: Humanity - Threat Assessment REBUTTAL

Scribe and Artificer J., I am writing to further inform you of our opinions on the subject of your most recent letter. Yes, your 'e-mails' did go through. Stop sending them. No, we will not accept the "good old-Unovan values of one on one combat" on the issue, no matter how many "fite me" messages you send. I am aware that this 'e-mail' is a lot more convenient than our courier system, but perhaps you are spending too much time on this "internet" that you so adore. This new messaging system of yours is enough to handle, as is. I feel that I must, at the very least, clarify our reasoning behind our verdict. For the most part, the council agrees with your assessment. Yes. Humanity is destined for greatness. Yes. Humanity shows limitless promise. Yes. We do take inspiration from their innovation (it'd be strange not to address this due to the way we talk to each other now). But humanity is an abnormality to the point of absurdity. They are our precursors, long before His Majesty Arceus gifted us with life, yet they still show signs of incremental growth. They repeat mistakes. They are prone to infighting. Their restrictive age keeps them from making wise decisions. For Arceus' sake, they only recently realized that it may be important to write things down. They are too unpredictable. Worst of all, they possess a power far greater than you give them credit for. Their abnormal power to persuade. Like you say, they have made complex societies, and have even gone as far as to borrow pokemons' powers for a mutually beneficial gain. What's mind-boggling is how oblivious they are to their power. No one is arguing with you that Humanity has cemented themselves as the top sapient life on the planet. Our scholars still debate on whether or not they should be classified as psychic-types due to this feat and the discussion is far from resolved. Perhaps this discussion would have been finished were it not for the fact that they are constantly changing, as you have mentioned in your assessment. Frankly, my dear friend, if I may be honest, humanity terrifies us. Imagine, if you will, the Order brought into chaos because we were convinced to make a decision without careful deliberation. Like you say, humanity barrels its way towards greatness. However, we cannot afford such rashness due to the gravity of our work. Which brings me to our next point. I understand your frustrations in our decision-making process. In comparison to mortal life, you are right in that we take too long to make a decision. This is an issue we hope to address in the future. However, these rules are written in blood. Yours included, if I'm not mistaken. We guide the entirety of existence in their path--there is no margin for error. You, of all people, should know this, given your current assignment. Your mind seems cluttered. Perhaps you need a reduction in your duties. As scribe, artificer, and now warden of some… particular probationary members, you seem to be spread thin. Do let me know if it's too much for you. Kindly, Head Scholar and Council Member Lok P. S. Are we still on for Dungeons and Dragonites? Steward Lia would like to join us. P. S. S. I know I've been pencil pushing for the past couple thousand years, but I bet I could kick your ass. Even with your blessing from Lady Victini.

[SEE BELOW FOR ADDENDUMS 150.1 - 150.6 - MESSAGES BETWEEN SUBJECT 150 MEWTWO AND GATEKEEPER STAFF]

Addendum 150.1: Gatekeeper Briefing

[Date: 3/15/1999]

To whomever it may concern, 

You have been assigned as a Gatekeeper. Your mission is dual purpose.  One: You are the first and last defense against anything and everything that comes from this cave.  Two: You are to defend the inhabitant of this cave with your life.  This job may seem like the menial day-to-day service required of many others in various military branches, but know that the subject of your occupation is the single most dangerous living being currently occupying the world.  You shall be rewarded handsomely for your efforts. Make your country proud. Commander-in-Chief and Prime Minister of Kanto: Haruka Nagumo

Addendum 150.2: Email Logs between General Takashi Shino and Commander-in-Chief Haruka Nagumo

[Date: 4/12/2001]

Commander,  It has been brought to my attention that Subject 150 has not breached containment for the past three years. It’s always been aware of the surveillance equipment, but this might be the first time it’s acknowledged it. The subject seems to be interested in communication between the surveillance team. It's making motions towards its mouth and towards the cameras. What should be our next course of action? Respectfully, General Takashi Shino

[Date: 4/13/2001]

General, After deliberating with Cinnabar’s Gym Leader Blaine, Professor Samuel Oak, and members of the ICSR ethics committee, Subject 150 is to be treated as a sapient with rights. We will be sending specialized communication equipment and appropriate protection equipment for leaving it outside the cave. When Subject 150 makes contact, I want rifle barrels pointed at the heads of the surveillance team. We have no gauge on the capabilities of Subject 150. That includes whether or not the surveillance team can be put under telepathic suggestion via digital communication. You are to report to me every single detail of communication regarding Subject 150. Commander In Chief Haruka Nagumo

[Date: 4/14/2001]

Commander,  We have successfully made contact with Subject 150. No casualties or suggestion of psy tampered personnel or equipment. Its first words with the surveillance team, and I quote, are the following: “I’m bored.” This doesn’t seem said out of defiance or malice, the Subject looks… well... bored out of its mind. I request that we send forms of entertainment via books, magazines, etc. if the science and ethics teams allow it. As always, the surveillance tapes are to follow in a separate file.  Respectfully, General Takashi Shino

[Date: 4/14/2001]

General,  You are to give Subject 150 whatever it wants from the list provided, below. - Television with approved pre-programmed channels  - Kantonese Encyclopedia Set and Dictionary  - MP3 Player with non radio functions and pre-installed music  - Children’s coloring book with 64-Crayon set.  - A set of tennis balls - A chess board with all pieces - Silph Co. Technological Magazine Given the history of Subject 150’s mistreatment from humanity, let’s pray to Mother Mew that it decides to spare us if it takes the MP3 player. If it has to listen to the Dugtrio Duds’ latest song, we might all be dead the next day.  Keep me posted, Commander In Chief Haruka Nagumo

[Date: 4/14/2001]

Commander, The Subject has requested “all of the above.” General Takashi Shino

Afterword: Subject 150 has requested more items between the dates noted in Addendum 150.2 and 150.3. Such items include: the highest selling mystery novel written by up-and-coming Unovan author Shauntal; miscellaneous household items: blanket, mattress, pillows; and a grand piano. All items were delivered with no issues.

Addendum 150.3 - Instant Messenger Chat Log between Subject 150 and Captain Asuka Shinohara

[Date: 5/23/2001]

S-150: Hello. 

AS: Hello. Has the portable computer given you any problems?

S-150: None.

AS: How are your accommodations?

S-150: Lacking. The cave is not what I would consider ‘comfortable'. 

AS: I can put a request for more accommodations if you would like. 

S-150: That would be appreciated. Thank you.

[END OF LOG]

[Date: 5/24/2001]

S-150: Hello.

AS: Hello. How are the items we provided you yesterday?

S-150: I broke the lamp. 

AS: Broke the what?

S-150: I was not aware of the fragility of this “lava lamp” that was provided. May I request another one? 

AS: Of course. 

S-150: I am also curious about the slots in this portable computer. It seems that there is room for something to enter this device. 

*pause due to deliberation between surveillance team members*

AS: The slot is for something called a “computer disk” that contains data on various subjects such as movies, music, and games.

S-150: Games can be played digitally?

AS: Correct. However, the portable computer you possess does not have the capability to “run” anything with limited electricity and processing power. It is a device strictly for communication. 

S-150: I see. May I request electricity and a computer that can run these games?

AS: Stand by.

*pause due to deliberation between surveillance team members*

AS: The request will need to be sent to a higher staff member. 

S-150: I have nothing but time.

[END OF LOG]

Afterword: A nearby team of electricians were hired to provide electricity to the entrance to Cerulean Cave. Electricians refused to enter further than the entrance to the cave, reporting feelings of "pressure."

[Date: 5/27/2001]

S-150: Hello. 

AS: Hello. I apologize for the location of the electrical grid, we hired a civilian contractor that has no formal combat and psychic training. 

S-150: It is acceptable. The instructions and instrumentation provided are very impressive. 

AS: Have you experienced anything of the sort before?

S-150: In a lab.

AS: I apologize. 

S-150: Haha

AS: Haha?

S-150: A laugh.

AS: I didn't realize you had a dark sense of humor.

S-150: I feel insulted. Am I not a sapient being like the rest of you?

AS: You are, but you would be surprised at the amount of sapients that lack a sense of ANY kind of humor.

S-150: They must lead dull and uninteresting lives.

AS: Haha  

[END OF LOG]

Addendum 150.4 - Instant Message Chat Log between General Takashi Shino and Commander-In-Chief Haruka Nagumo

[Date: 7/21/2001]

Commander,  All seems to be well over here. The surveillance team is in unusually high spirits. It seems that the monitored conversations have done well to improve the morale of both the team and the subject.  The subject, however, has requested an improvement in the technology provided within Cerulean Cave: heating, cooling, ventilation, electricity, lighting, and most worryingly, internet access. I highly advise against the last option.  Respectfully,  Captain Takashi Shino

[Date 7/22/2001]

Takashi,  For whatever fucking reason, the committee has decided to approve all items including the goddamn internet. Arceus help us all. Nagumo

Addendum 150.5 - IM Chat Logs between Subject 150 and Captain Asuka Shinohara

[Date: 7/29/2001]

AS: Did you seriously order a pizza party to Cerulean Cave?

S-150: Hello. 

S-150: Yes, I did. 

AS: You realize that this area is under constant military surveillance? With top-of-the-line weaponry and security? And that the facilities near Cerulean Cave are designed to be defended with the upmost discretion?

S-150: Yes. May I have them?

AS: Stand by.

*Extended pause for HEAVY deliberation by surveillance team*

AS: We are sending a team of operators to the cave entrance to deliver the pizzas.

S-150:  :) 

[END OF LOG]

Afterword: Subject 150 ordered the entirety of ‘Cerulean Pizzeria’s’ menu items meant for catering for large events. Such events as birthday parties and company-wide events. The delivery driver was sent back to his employer after signing a non-disclosure agreement drafted in short notice by Kanto Homeland Security.

[Date: 8/2/2001]

S-150: Hello. 

S-150: Are you somehow cheating at chess?

AS: The surveillance team doesn’t appreciate that you’re reading their minds, so we’re equipping our psy helmets. Commander Nagumo told us that this isn’t a misappropriation of personal protection equipment. 

S-150:  Booooo >:/

Addendum 150.6.1 - Video Transcript 1 of Virtual Meeting Between Subject 150 - (New Designation: Mewtwo) and Commander-In-Chief Haruka Nagumo

[Date: 8/5/2001]

HN: Hello. I was told by my staff that you requested an audience with me? 

MT: Yes, I did. 

HN: May I ask what for?

MT: Perspective. 

HN: I’m sorry?

MT: What are your goals in… all of this? The guards, the provisions, everything?

HN (pauses): Well, you pose an interesting situation for the nation. You are simultaneously the most dangerous entity in the world, and yet the international committee has agreed that you should be treated like any regular Kantonese citizen. 

MT: The accommodations have been appreciated by all of us.

HN: Hold on a second, us?

MT: I have other pokemon who suffered at the hands of Team Rocket Scientists. They are experiments, like me. They live deeper in the cave. 

HN: Was there a reason you kept this hidden from us until now?

MT: I was scared for them.

HN: Scared?

MT: There are claims that I am the strongest on the planet, yet I was humbled by one of your youngest to hold the title of "champion." I am not as strong as I had hoped. I was not sure if I could provide for the ones I call siblings.

HN: They’re not as strong as you?

MT: On the contrary. They’ve been hurt, abused, and tortured at the hands of people like you.

HN: … People like me?

MT: Your records are public, Commander-In-Chief Nagumo. I understand that you took part of the Kanto-Johto war as a commanding officer. 

HN: I did. 

MT: Then you know what humanity is capable of. What you are capable of. You were a part of it, after all.

HN: I like to think that I’ve passed that. 

MT: Oh? And actions like these are supposed to redeem the actions of your subordinates at Blackthorn City?

HN: ...The ones responsible were put on trial and summarily executed. 

MT: Who says you shouldn’t belong there in the grave with them?

HN: Because my nephew died in Blackthorn by the hands of those... excuses for human beings. He was eight years old. Eight. I personally made sure that those responsible were lined up against a wall, shot, and buried so deep that the earth will roll ten times over before their remains ever see the sun again.

Silence fills the room. Mewtwo leans forward, focusing extremely hard at the screen. Review suggests that Mewtwo was able to telepathically deduce that Commander Nagumo was telling the truth.

MT: You're not lying.

HN: The internet doesn’t have all of the answers, unfortunately. Journalists take advantage of topics like this all of the time, especially if their motives are to smear your reputation while you run for office. If you want public access to the documents, beyond the spoon-feeding speculation of a half-wit college undergraduate, I’m afraid that you have to spend more time than that before you have access to the truth.

MT: (silence)

Commander Nagumo stands to leave, knocking her chair back in the process.

HN: If all you wanted to do is anger me, I’m afraid that this conversation is over.

MT: Wait. 

Commander Nagumo stops.

MT: I apologize. I was not aware that I did not have all of the information. 

HN: ... Apology accepted.

Commander Nagumo sits back down.

MT: Clearly not.

HN: It’s a... touchy subject. I know that you are new to this, but incidents like that don’t get discussed in such an accusatory manner, unless one is on trial or under duress.

Silence. Mewtwo looks uncharacteristically uncomfortable.

MT: You say that the documents detailing this event are accessible. May I see them?

Commander Nagumo turns to the rest of the surveillance and science team. All of them are vehemently shaking their heads or making gestures of disapproval.

HN: Sure.

Surveillance Staff Member: Prime Minister-

HN: I don’t want to hear it. He has the right to know.

HN (turning to mewtwo): Against my advice, my cabinet seem to think that talking about our shame makes us weak. Although, their argument has some merit. The full details don’t paint a good picture of our actions during the Kanto-Johto war. You might not like what you see. 

MT: I have been subject to cruelty that you would not imagine. I feel that you will have to put forth tremendous effort to phase me.

HN: You’d be surprised at what I’ve watched soldiers do for the sake of themselves and their country. Human and pokemon alike.

MT: I see. May we continue this conversation after I’ve read the documents?

HN: If you learn how to be polite in conversation, perhaps. 

MT: You will have to be patient with me. I am only six years old, after all.

Addendum 150.6.2 - Video Transcript 2 of Virtual Meeting Between Mewtwo and Commander-In-Chief Haruka Nagumo

[Date: 8/6/2001]

HN: Good morning. 

MT: Hello. Good morning. I would like to apologize for my words the other day. 

Commander Nagumo takes a brief moment to take a sip of her coffee.

HN: I forgive you. I understand why you might be wary of people like me. Talking about Blackthorn is like reopening an old wound, but I should have kept my temper in check. I am also sorry.

MT: I understand and I forgive you. I still harbor resentment towards those who have wronged me. However, you are not one of them. It would be unfair to treat you as such. I let my emotions surface more than I wanted. I would like to continue our conversation, if you would allow it. 

HN: By all means. Before we do...

Commander Nagumo raises a binder to the screen.

HN: Since you had some files on me, I decided to take a deeper look into your time with Team Rocket. It’s all kinds of fucked. 

MT: Fucked?

A science team audibly groans in the background. Commander Nagumo sheepishly lowers the binder and clears her throat. 

HN: It’s an expletive. The science team decided to keep your education material elementary, but given all that’s happened between us, and between you and Team Rocket, I figure we can drop the kindergarten language. 

MT: That... is appreciated. I have to admit, I was beginning to feel that I was being talked down to. I feel that you and I, at the very least, can converse as equals. 

HN: Equals?

MT: The world has not been kind to us, Prime Minister. Given my current circumstance and your position of power, I believe that you and I have a lot in common. We both are responsible for people we care about. We both fought to be where we are and have made grave mistakes in doing so. We are both leaving behind the battlefield, where we thrive, to talk to each other for the sake of cooperation and peace.

HN (visibly surprised): Well, it’s good to see that the strongest pokemon in the world has the capacity of sympathy and empathy. 

MT: I am glad to see that someone in a high position, like yourself, don't see a conversation with a pokemon as beneath you. 

HN: On the contrary. I’m very pleased to let you know that Team Rocket’s views towards pokemon is very, very much out of the ordinary. I’ve see pokemon exhibit more “humanity” than what the best of humanity have to offer.

Commander Nagumo puts the binder away.

HN: Picking up from yesterday, I understand that you have companions in Cerulean Cave?

MT: Yes. In addition to the pokemon who previously inhabited this cave, I have fellow Rocket victims that are seeking refuge. The intent of our initial meeting was to request additional accommodations for them.

Commander Nagumo takes a pen and piece of paper from a nearby surveillance member.

HN: If there is anything that we can do to make your lives comfortable, list them. 

[CONVERSATION HAS BEEN EDITED TO RETAIN SECURITY AND PRIVACY OF THE INHABITANTS OF CERULEAN CAVE] 

MT: … May I ask what you are drinking?

HN: It’s coffee. 

MT: May I request that, as well?

HN: I don’t know, it might not be palatable for someone with a six-year-old tongue. 

MT: Try me.

Today is asexual awareness day, but as I thought more about it, I figured that I would cover this universally and wholly.

This blog does not tolerate any form of hatred or aggression towards the LGBT+ Community. My story and head-canon universe have no room for prejudice of this kind unless it is actively getting stamped out, like it should be in the real world.

Defend trans rights. Defend equality and equity for those in the LGBT+ community, especially those who have been wronged and continue to face unjust treatment. This ramen stand has the right to refuse service to bigots, especially TERFs.

Side Story Lore Posting

Depending on who you ask, Gatekeepers protect the public from Mewtwo or protect Mewtwo from the public. Heavily vetted, extremely capable, and no tolerance for nonsense. Unless Mewtwo wants to play some video games, in which case the entire security team will crowd around the TV to fight Mewtwo in pokken only to get humiliated.
