I feel like I would be a Prof in the Pokémon universe. Just interested in studying, experiments, generally dilletante shit and fieldwork.
No desire for fame or publishing if I can get around it or get someone else to take credit for it as long as I get a little scratch
Edit: try and keep things nice at 69%, lol
I’d be one of those forgettable NPCs who has one or two Pokemon who help me with chores and then we hang out in our small house. Squirtle would be my helpful, friendly bro. But I’d also like one of the dog ones to pet and snuggle with. Maybe Growlithe. Water and fire moves would be super handy in everyday life. They’d be occasional Flintstone appliances, but mostly something between pets and children. I would love them so much.
And then you assholes would walk into my house uninvited and be annoyed that I wasted your time by not giving you anything. Like removed, you’re lucky you didn’t catch a Flamethrower from my boy Growlithe over here for breaking and entering. Don’t look in my trash can, you nosey fuck. Damn Pokemon gym brings riffraff into this town. The shit I put up with for free healthcare…
