[@Lord Frostecs] I understand, especially if it's a habit. I really appreciate it though! And your years of shaping and adjusting show. I love when there's a character that grows with you and changes and become something truly unique. I considered using one of my trainers that I've worked on the most, but she didn't fit the general theme of the story. So I made a new one. I'm looking forward to seeing how she develops and surprises me. Because, I don't truly believe that they are a full character until they can start surprising you with their reactions. Multilingual people are awesome. I'm a little biased though. My husband speaks three. Haha! But if you'd like to have your Ninetails speak, I am OK with that. Meowth and Slowking readily come to mind, and Lucario as well, although that was Moore telepathic. And yes, thank goodness for translation apps. I only hear they are getting better. My husband works as an interpreter. He believes that live interpretation is the best, but has used translator programs and say that they are improving. They didn't used to be so great.

I like that idea! It makes complete sense for the idea of them training and having high-level trainers come to teach them. His name is Brendon, I am 99% sure. May is his counterpart. But I think that could be fun. I'm willing to play a Canon character briefly for something like that. Who wouldn't want to get a chance to gush over Pokémon? I would.

[@Azure Bubbles] Haha! Perfect! The idea has merit.

Does anyone have an opinion on the idea I mentioned back on the first page? About them getting invitations to a competition and then being recruited from there?
