I love when pokemon games use a character’s team to tell us more about them.
Take Ghetsis from black and white 2 for example. Did you know that his Hydreigon can use the move frustration at maximum power? frustration is a move that gets more powerful the more a pokemon dislikes their trainer, which means that Ghetsis’ Hydreigon literally hates him.
Did you know that his Hydreigon is also a whole ten levels below when the pokemon would normally evolve? While this isn’t uncommon for NPC’s in pokemon games, you could make the argument that this specific instance of it suggests that Ghetsis somehow forced his pokemon to evolve earlier than it ever would have naturally, which isn’t exactly out of character for him.
I’m not even done with Ghetsis and his affront towards nature yet lmao. Did you also know that his Hydreigon is specifically designed to counter N’s team? Y’know, his own foster son.
It has dragon pulse for his legendary
Fire blast for his Vanillux and Klingklang
And focus blast for Carracosta, Zoroark and Archeops
He also has a Cofagrigus who can nullify the legendary’s ability with his mummy ability.
It’s very likely that no matter the outcome of N’s battle with us, Ghetsis was always going to turn on his son to take the dragon for himself. And looking at his team I could believe he would succeed.

Let's look at a slightly more recent example.
In pokemon sword and shield, chairman Rose actually does some preparations before waking up Eternatus, specifically it seems that he did some research into Eternatus’ typing (Poison/Dragon) and designed his team to counter it. He brought a full team of steel types to fight it, which are not only immune to poison but also heavily resist dragon as well. With everything he knew, it really was one of the smartest choices he could have made.
But if he was so prepared then how did Eternatus wipe the floor with him so quickly? Surely he could have easily defeated the legendary and capture it himself right? 
Well there was one thing Rose didn’t take into account when designing his team. One thing he couldn’t have possibly known, even with his extensive research into the creature.
Eternatus knows flame thrower.
He brought nothing but steel types.
He never stood a chance.

This is Sharp. She's around 15 to 18 years old, and she's been with me since I was a child. She developed a bump on her chest, which the vet described as ''bubbly'' and ''full of cysts''. They think it might be a mammary tumor, but they need to do a surgical removal and biopsy to be sure. The price estimate they gave me was between $900 to $1,300. I filed for taxes back in January and genuinely thought I would have gotten my return by now, but I haven't. The bump seems to be causing her pain - she's sluggish, extremely cranky, and it sometimes bleeds. She has to wear a cone at all times. She's been in my life for as long as I can remember, and I genuinely can't imagine being without her - even if she's old, I want her to enjoy the last years of her life to the fullest.
Any excess funds not needed for the surgery will be used for transportation to and from the vet, follow up appointments if necessary, and things like heating pads and pain medication for her. If you've read this far - genuinely, thank you, I appreciate it more than words can say.
If you'd like to donate, you can do so here. I'm also willing to draw things and/or write small drabbles. Thank you again and please reblog if you can!
