(all answered icly + in person)
survey #1: "Rumors say that the League is developing suits that match the style of a Pokemon a trainer has bonded with. Which Pokemon would you select as the style for your suit and what would it look like?"

"hm. i think my shiny comfey would make for a unique matching suit. cobalt blue with some added color... wait, do you think i could rock pink?

survey #2: "All skilled trainers have a rival! Who's your rival and why?"

"a friend of mine used to be (DANNY HALL). but, i think he's slacked off. goes to show you that women can sometimes ruin your life. he pauses wait, this is anonymous right? that was a joke. really, it was."

survey #3: "Do you agree with the League's plan to warp the incoming meteoroid into an alternate universe Hoenn? Why or why not?"

"i think we're getting into a slippery slope territory. do i agree? no. i wish we had other alternatives. did they stop looking, or was it just settled? i know they attacked us, but do hundreds of thousands of innocents deserve to die? are they even innocents? sorry, i think about this a lot."

survey #4: "What do you think of Avatars, people who have been bestowed powers by legendary Pokemon? Do you believe it to be a blessing or a curse, or is it something humans should not meddle with?"

"with great power comes great responsibility. uncle ben said that, y'know? still true to this day. i've seen avatars that work under the leagues jurisdiction impact a battlefield, and change lives. then i've seen others who use the powers granted them to oppress those around them. i don't agree with that at all. i'm making it my goal to find them, and put a stop to them."

survey #5: "Why do you support the League/Team Rocket? If you are a member of one of these formal organizations, what compelled you to join?"

"short answer is i'm following in my dad's footsteps. long answer? the league has the capability to do good, and the resources to do it. i've seen first hand the things rocket has done to innocent people, and pokemon. you can't justify that in my eyes."

survey #6: "Select one of the following events and explain how it affected you. The Slateport Rocket Invasion, the Slateport Night Market Blacephalon Attack, the Ultra Beast Attacks on Mossdeep, The Ultra Beast War, the Sootopolis Takeover."

"i wasn't there for the takeover of sootopolis, as their attacks coincided with the awakening of groudon. that seems too coincidental for my tastes, but we don't have time for that conspiracy theory. overall my heart goes out to those people under oppressive rule, and i'm eager to help them however i can.

survey #7: "TERAVOLT, a Hoennian Rock Band comprising of Guitarist CALLAN YOUNG and Lead Vocalist ADRIAN MALCOLM, from Slateport City, have been finding massive success in recent years. Out of their DISCOGRAPHY, which is your favourite song and why?"

"sorry, i'm not up to date on music. i can tell you my favorite linkin park song, though? no? okay, moving on."

survey #8: "Do you believe in free will or fate/destiny? Why? If the latter, do you believe you know what your destiny is?"

"not sure we have the time to discuss it properly, but, yeah i guess i do. as for mine? i don't know. i just hope i don't let anyone down along the way."

survey #9: "What is your greatest fear? If faced with said fear, how will you handle it?"

"scratches the side of his head "have you heard the rumors about ekans in the sewer pipes?"

survey #10: "What is your love language? How do you express affection and how do you like to receive it? If you are adverse to intimacy, why?"

"for me, it's act of service. it's one thing to tell someone you love them, it's another to show it, you know? clears his throat. sorry, could move on?"

survey #11: "If you could be a Pokemon or have a Pokemon represent who you are, which Pokemon would it be and why?"

"are legendary pokemon off the table? OK, i'll choose something easier, then. silence for a few long seconds. man this is hard. i think i'd like to be a zoroark, but i'm probably more of a boltund. mine at least runs around like it's on fire constantly and doesn't know what it's doing with it's life. you want to meet her?"

survey #12: "How do you feel about their own mortality (or immortality)? If you were to die tomorrow, what would you do today?"

"sits quietly for a moment. i'd probably go spend time with my parents one last time. maybe tend the family garden."

survey #13: "How do you carry yourself? How vocally expressive are you? How bodily expressive are you? Are there any catchphrases or verbal ticks that you find yourself repeating? Where do you think they come from?"

"i'm quiet, and speak through my facial expressions often. this can kinda come back to bite me in the butt, too. or at least that's what my friend (annalise henderson) has been telling me. i tend to stick back and support others, but am trying to take charge of situations more. that's kind-of hit and miss."

survey #14: "Are you in the process of learning a new skill or researching a curious topic? What are you studying and why?"

"oh, it's actually quite interesting. i've been working with my friend (PENELOPE LIVY) on some stuff. do you know anything about something called the 'hero duo?' no? you got a few mins after this?"

survey #15: "What do they need and want out of relationships (humans or Pokemon), and how do they go about getting it?"

"it's crazy to think about, y'know, that everyone is going about their own business, and down their own paths, yet they all need someone. i consider that sometimes, even when i think about those people in rocket that seem to be heartless monsters. do they have someone they love too?"

suggestions?

do i get paid if you use my suggestions?

riddle: "I have rivers without Basculin and roads without cars, I have deserts without heat and snowlands without cold, I have mountains without height and canyons without depth. What am I?"

"hm. i'm not very good with riddles. is it— phone notification goes off one sec. reads it, the looks up guiltily as he clears his throat....—is it a map?"

SURVEY #1

"Wait really? That's so cool! I wonder if it's anything like the one I got from regular trainers could get one too! If I had one...maybe a Musharna design? Or a cute fairy type, like Sylveon or Clefairy. I think...a suit like that should be cute but practical, right? Maybe something like techwear! But cute, with a skirt and some frills and a ribbon of course..."

a small drawing has been attached

SURVEY #2

"Ummm, well I'm not much of a trainer, really. I guess my friend Sebastian might have been a rival at some point...but now we're besties!"

SURVEY #3

"No...I don't think it's right to endanger so many innocent lives just to protect our own. Surely there's something else that we can do! Maybe some kind of celestial Pokemon can help out?"

SURVEY #4

"I think they're cool! Kind of like, mysterious though...but I think to be chosen by a legendary, someone has to be pretty amazing, right? Though that kind of power can also be dangerous...I guess it depends on who's wielding it. I wouldn't mind that kind of ability if it allows me to protect the ones I love though, no matter what might happen to me."

SURVEY #5

"Even if the League isn't perfect, I'll always stand by them over Rocket's cruelty. I don't think every Rocket member is evil...but they condone it by being involved. The ends can never justify the means if it involves hurting innocents, Pokemon especially. I think it's more important to be kind in this world then to hurt others to get what you want."

SURVEY #6

"I hadn't arrived in Hoenn by then, but the fallout of the Sootopolis Takeover was so sad. So many people and Pokemon displaced because of greed and power grabbing...it's so sad."

SURVEY #7

"It's not my preferred genre, honestly. But I'm so happy for their success and I wish them all the best!"

SURVEY #8

"Ummmm. I don't know? I'm not very bright, so I don't really think about deep topics like that. I guess I think destiny...sounds cool? But maybe we have the free will to shape it still."

SURVEY #9

"I don't want to be alone."

SURVEY #10

"Hmm...words of affirmation and physical touch, I think! I'm kind of annoying about it actually...I want the people I care about to know I adore them always! And there's nothing lovelier than making a stranger smile with a random compliment. It doesn't really matter if it's returned or not, I'm happy as long as others are!"

SURVEY #11

"Sebby always calls me a little rabbit, so I think I would be a Buneary..."

SURVEY #12

"That's such a sad thought...I would make sure to spend time with my friends and loved ones though. I'd make sure my Pokemon are sent to good homes...and I think I'd finally work up the nerve to tell my boyfriend I love him."

SURVEY #13

"Ummmmm. That's kind of a hard question! I don't really think about my own mannerisms much! But I'd like to think I'm pretty friendly and approachable...some people have said I have a cute voice, hehe. Oh, but I stammer a bit if I'm nervous..."

SURVEY #14

"I'm always always always studying languages and dialects! There's so much to learn! But I've also been interested in the interdream zone lately, and the Pokemon Cresselia. I'd love to learn more about her and maybe meet her again someday."

SURVEY #15

"Love, of course! I want to give as much love and affection to people and Pokemon. It doesn't matter if I get it in return...I just want to make people happy or smile, or cheer them up when they're blue. That's really all I care about."

SUGGESTIONS?

"You should ask some things about the zodiac and horoscopes! I love questions like that. Oh, or more relationship ones! Love gossip is soooo fun!"

SURVEY #1

"Rumors say that the League is developing suits that match the style of a Pokemon a trainer has bonded with. Which Pokemon would you select as the style for your suit and what would it look like?"

"It'd be a deep purple with neon red and green electricity flowing through like veins. Same colors as Bowie."

SURVEY #2

"All skilled trainers have a rival! Who's your rival and why?"

"I don't necessarily have a rival, the vitriol that drives me is for everyone."

SURVEY #3

"Do you agree with the League's plan to warp the incoming meteoroid into an alternate universe Hoenn? Why or why not?"

"Yes, because I don't want to die."

SURVEY #4

"What do you think of Avatars, people who have been bestowed powers by legendary Pokemon? Do you believe it to be a blessing or a curse, or is it something humans should not meddle with?"

"I think being chosen by a Pokemon means that they have an agenda that they wish for you to follow through with. Whether that's good or bad is entirely up to your relationship with them."

SURVEY #5

"Why do you support the League/Team Rocket? If you are a member of one of these formal organizations, what compelled you to join?"

"Money, for starters. But what keeps me going is the fear of the alternative, I want to build a better tomorrow for my daughter. No one intelligent would ever think Team Rocket represents a brighter future than the League. I bet you right now someones cortisol is spiking up with the urge to be contrarian just by reading this."

SURVEY #6

"Select one of the following events and explain how it affected you. The Slateport Rocket Invasion, the Slateport Night Market Blacephalon Attack, the Ultra Beast Attacks on Mossdeep, The Ultra Beast War, the Sootopolis Takeover."

"I went bankrupt from the Blacephalon attack, got divorced and fell some terrible times afterwards. I'd rather not discuss this subject further, maybe I'll write a song about it in the future."

SURVEY #7

"TERAVOLT, a Hoennian Rock Band comprising of Guitarist Callan Young and Lead Vocalist Adrian Malcolm , from Slateport City, have been finding massive success in recent years. Out of their DISCOGRAPHY, which is your favourite song and why?"

"Synergy is my favorite. It was fun to make, and that track is where my guitar really shines out. It's one of the most complex tracks on the album, and you can dance to it, if you can stomach the unclean vocals."

SURVEY #8

"Do you believe in free will or fate/destiny? Why? If the latter, do you believe you know what your destiny is?"

"Well, there's no way to know, but everyone acts under the assumption of free will regardless. How else can you ever be accountable for your own actions?"

SURVEY #9

"What is your greatest fear? If faced with said fear, how will you handle it?"

"Mine would probably be my daughter dying. And I don't think I'd be able to live much longer after that."

SURVEY #10

"What is your love language? How do you express affection and how do you like to receive it? If you are adverse to intimacy, why?"

"I think for me physical intimacy is a gateway to affection.I'd listen to my partner and do things that I'd know would make them happy."

SURVEY #11

"If you could be a Pokemon or have a Pokemon represent who you are, which Pokemon would it be and why?"

"I think I'd be a Shelgon, that's me right now, waiting to be a Salamence."

SURVEY #12

"How do you feel about their own mortality (or immortality)? If you were to die tomorrow, what would you do today?"

"I'd probably call my daughter, settle my affairs, and chainsmoke until the time came."

SURVEY #13

"How do you carry yourself? How vocally expressive are you? How bodily expressive are you? Are there any catchphrases or verbal ticks that you find yourself repeating? Where do you think they come from?"

"I say Arceus a lot. I'm pissed all the time and I just prefer to keep that to myself. So I'm fairly reserved."

SURVEY #14

"Are you in the process of learning a new skill or researching a curious topic? What are you studying and why?"

"I'm always learning to be a better guitarist. I don't even want to get started on training."

SURVEY #15

"What do they need and want out of relationships (humans or Pokemon), and how do they go about getting it?"

"I think most everybody has a hole in their spiritual, and sometimes physical, body they'd like to fill. And they're all trying to find someone that can fill it for them."

SUGGESTIONS?

"Do you have a suggestion for a future survey question? Please submit it below."

"My suggestion is this: "Who's the worst person you know and why are they terrible?"

"I don't know... a member of the dark triad?"

ooc answers are (in italics and parentheses).

1. "Rumors say that the League is developing suits that match the style of a Pokemon a trainer has bonded with. Which Pokemon would you select as the style for your suit and what would it look like?"

litwick?

shirt. pants.

2. "All skilled trainers have a rival! Who's your rival and why?"

BLANK

3. "Do you agree with the League's plan to warp the incoming meteoroid into an alternate universe Hoenn? Why or why not?"

i want to think that if the council selected this solution, it was after considering all other options. and even then, i don't know: i don't want to die, but i don't want someone to die in my place.

4. "What do you think of Avatars, people who have been bestowed powers by legendary Pokemon? Do you believe it to be a blessing or a curse, or is it something humans should not meddle with?"

i don't know much about it. it sounds like a lot to live up to.

(curiousity like a keen edge: why are they chosen, and for what reasons? what agendas could these legendary pokemon have? and beneath it, simmering low despite his efforts to smother it, the acrid smog of yearning and self-loathing. he wants, in spite of himself.)

5. "Why do you support the League/Team Rocket? If you are a member of one of these formal organizations, what compelled you to join?"

[there is a large splotch of ink here, bleeding through the paper, as if a pen had rested here without moving for quite some time. aside from the stain, the answer has been left otherwise blank.]

6. "Select one of the following events and explain how it affected you. The Slateport Rocket Invasion, the Slateport Night Market Blacephalon Attack, the Ultra Beast Attacks on Mossdeep, The Ultra Beast War, the Sootopolis Takeover."

BLANK

7. "TERAVOLT, a Hoennian Rock Band comprising of Guitarist CALLAN YOUNG and Lead Vocalist ADRIAN MALCOLM, from Slateport City, have been finding massive success in recent years. Out of their DISCOGRAPHY, which is your favourite song and why?"

acid rain is good to write to.

8. "Do you believe in free will or fate/destiny? Why? If the latter, do you believe you know what your destiny is?"

i don't believe that a higher divinity charts my course. 

(not divinity, but circumstance: paths carved into the soil, though not set in stone and cement, by things beyond an individual's control. his path leads straight and forwards, scenery unchanging. this is all he will be.)

9. "What is your greatest fear? If faced with said fear, how will you handle it?"

BLANK

(dying, alone and forgotten. he refuses to think about it.)

10. "What is your love language? How do you express affection and how do you like to receive it? If you are adverse to intimacy, why?"

[there is a small mark beside the question, as if the person filling it out had skipped it, intending to come back to it later. they forgot.]

(a plate of fried rice, cooling on a countertop for his father, who eats it without a word and then drinks until he can't stop talking. he is four when his parents stop holding his hand.)

11. "If you could be a Pokemon or have a Pokemon represent who you are, which Pokemon would it be and why?"

ditto, maybe. transforming sounds fun. 

12. "How do you feel about their own mortality (or immortality)? If you were to die tomorrow, what would you do today?"

make sure my pokemon are entrusted to someone who will care for them. settle whatever affairs i have left.

(queue up every chapter of tales he's pre-written. sit down and write until he can bring his novel to a close, as satisfying as he can manage. it's the only thing he has to his name, even if it wasn't written under it.)

13. "How do you carry yourself? How vocally expressive are you? How bodily expressive are you? Are there any catchphrases or verbal ticks that you find yourself repeating? Where do you think they come from?"

i have terrible posture and perpetual back pain.

14. "Are you in the process of learning a new skill or researching a curious topic? What are you studying and why?"

hoenn's myths and legends; the fleur tea atelier has some intriguing carvings.

15. "What do they need and want out of relationships (humans or Pokemon), and how do they go about getting it?

BLANK

(i. to care and be cared for beyond a sense of obligation.
ii. badly!!!!)

RIDDLE: "I have rivers without Basculin and roads without cars, I have deserts without heat and snowlands without cold, I have mountains without height and canyons without depth. What am I?"

what's this supposed to tell you about me?

a map. i've heard this one before. 

Survey 1

I'd either have to say Scizor or Pangoro. A Scizor Suit would be a set of mechanical red armor. Pangoro would be a black and white outfit, with a frayed black trenchcoat.

Survey 2

I've been out of the game for a while, but I'd have to say Josh Dragomir. I've seen his skills during my time in the International Police, and though we clash at times, I respect the hell out of him.

Survey 3

Fuck no. Kicking the can over to another reality that's potentially less prepared than ours would be an action that's just as fucked up as the Megalopolans trying to turn us into their dinner.

Survey 4

The Legendary Pokemon in question tend to choose their Avatars. Though I worry about who they choose to side with, and what they do with that power.

Survey 5

Fuck 'em both. The League is incompetent as fuck, and Rocket is pure fucking evil.

Survey 6

The Slateport Rocket Invasion proved to me that nowhere is safe from Rocket's greed and bloodlust, and that the League is woefully unprepared for what they will do. I will never forgive them for that, nor will I forgive them for Kanto.

Survey 7

Don't listen to 'em.

Survey 8

I believe in free will. I believe we all have a choice in our own lives.

Survey 9

The loss of my Pokemon. I've faced this before, and I responded by training and preparing myself for who killed them.

Survey 10

I tend to express love and affection through physical touch, such as hugging and kissing. And I like to receive it through being hugged and cuddled by my lover.

Survey 11

Pangoro, most likely. A Pokemon that doesn't take shit from anyone, and defends the weak with unbridled ferocity is a Pokemon that I can identify with.

Survey 12

If I die, I die. And if I had one more day, I'd use it to - sort out my own affairs.

Survey 13

I tend to carry myself through actions rather than words.

Survey 14

Yes, but I can't say much more than that.

Survey 15

I want a family, essentially. People and Pokemon to watch my back, as I watch there backs. And I try to bond with them the best I can, create a personal rapport with them.

answered in-person, ICly

1. "Rumors say that the League is developing suits that match the style of a Pokemon a trainer has bonded with. Which Pokemon would you select as the style for your suit and what would it look like?"

Oh! I had one of these once! It was modeled after my Gallade, white with emerald green accents.

2. "All skilled trainers have a rival! Who's your rival and why?"

Ugh, that stupid masked rocket guy (bryan delarosa) that keeps getting in my way!

3. "Do you agree with the League's plan to warp the incoming meteoroid into an alternate universe Hoenn? Why or why not?"

I do not, and I have ben quite open in discussing this. "Out of sight out of mind" is not the solution to any problem, especially when it involves destroying a universe with living people and pokemon. We are not murders, and should strive for better.

4. "What do you think of Avatars, people who have been bestowed powers by legendary Pokemon? Do you believe it to be a blessing or a curse, or is it something humans should not meddle with?"

This is a touchy subject. I believe there is good and bad in this. It is the legendary's choice to bond with a human vessel and the human's choice to accept the risk. However, nothing is benign. The human body isn't meant to hold such power, made clear by the untimely death of Bailey Cooper. We should proceed with caution. Their agenda is also unknown to us. As someone who has been attacked by an avatar, not all avatars (and legendaries) have the people's best interest in mind.

5. "Why do you support the League/Team Rocket? If you are a member of one of these formal organizations, what compelled you to join?"

I support The League. We aren't perfect - far from it, but Rocket's mindless obsession with power and control leads to corruption and unnecessary violence. I saw first hand in Kanto what their organization is truly after. They care about themselves, only. Every one and everything else is expendable. What is it that they say? All for the glory fo Rocket or some shit like that?

6. "Select one of the following events and explain how it affected you. The Slateport Rocket Invasion, the Slateport Night Market Blacephalon Attack, the Ultra Beast Attacks on Mossdeep, The Ultra Beast War, the Sootopolis Takeover."

Sootopolis Takeover: Quite triggering for me. As a Kanto native and veteran of the war with Rocket, it reminds me of how all that started - one city at a time. The League must be vigilant and regain control as soon as pssible.

7. "TERAVOLT, a Hoennian Rock Band comprising of Guitarist CALLAN YOUNG and Lead Vocalist ADRIAN MALCOLM, from Slateport City, have been finding massive success in recent years. Out of their DISCOGRAPHY, which is your favourite song and why?"

Dang it! Thanks for reminding me, I need to give that a listen!

8. "Do you believe in free will or fate/destiny? Why? If the latter, do you believe you know what your destiny is?"

I believe in both. You have the free will to choose your own path, but eventually all roads lead you to your destiny. I thought I knew what my destiny was but . . . I guess I was wrong.

9. "What is your greatest fear? If faced with said fear, how will you handle it?"

Failing to do my job, to save the lives of those relying on me to find the answers. That, and losing someone I love (MATIAS SILPH)

10. "What is your love language? How do you express affection and how do you like to receive it? If you are adverse to intimacy, why?"

Physical touch and quality time, bit of both!

11. "If you could be a Pokemon or have a Pokemon represent who you are, which Pokemon would it be and why?"

Hmm that's a tough one! Ditto maybe? Then I could transform into whatever is needed to get the job done and accomplish it to the best of my abilities!

12. "How do you feel about their own mortality (or immortality)? If you were to die tomorrow, what would you do today?"

I've done a lot in my lifetime, but none of it has truly made a difference. If I died tomorrow, i'd likely be unhappy with how I left things. What I want to accomplish I can't do in one day. Becuase of this, I guess I'd try and remember all the lives I have saved. Maybe that would make me feel better and left me rest somewhat peacefully.

13. "How do you carry yourself? How vocally expressive are you? How bodily expressive are you? Are there any catchphrases or verbal ticks that you find yourself repeating? Where do you think they come from?"

I probably talk too much and am too emotionally invested in things for my own good. I'd probably be happier if I could take a step back. I'm pretty sure I love my significant other more than he loves me.

14. "Are you in the process of learning a new skill or researching a curious topic? What are you studying and why?"

You can find all of my current projects on The Hoenn League Scientific Laboratory website

15. "What do they need and want out of relationships (humans or Pokemon), and how do they go about getting it?

To be loved, consistency, safety. Actions speak louder than words.

16. "Do you have a suggestion for a future survey question? Please submit it below."

Yeah! Selfishly, I'd love to know what people want out of the government, The League. The previous questions just asks about a loyalty, not about the future they seek. What can we do to help elevate their lives in the direction they wish to go?

RIDDLE: "I have rivers without Basculin and roads without cars, I have deserts without heat and snowlands without cold, I have mountains without height and canyons without depth. What am I?"

Haha! What a strange last question. Surely everyone has heard by now: A Map.

Survey #7

I am so into "The End is Where We Begin". It is emotionally evocative without being sad or melodramatic.

Survey #10

I express love with words of affirmation to bring joy and happiness to my loved ones, but I like to receive love through quality time spent with those I care about.

ANSWERS PROVIDED IN-CHARACTER & ANONYMOUSLY

8. Do you believe in free will or fate/destiny? Why? If the latter, do you believe you know what your destiny is?

Fate and destiny are bullshit. A person might be inclined to one thing or another, but each of us has to make choices all the time: what to eat, who to speak with, how to live. Every action and inaction is a conscious decision. When something they value is on the line, like their lives, so many people claim they had no choice to do something or that they were trapped into making a decision they didn't want to make. Wrong. They always had a choice.

9. What is your greatest fear? If faced with said fear, how will you handle it?

I fear nothing.

12. How do you feel about their own mortality (or immortality)? If you were to die tomorrow, what would you do today?

I won't die.

15. What do they need and want out of relationships (humans or Pokemon), and how do they go about getting it?

Obedience. Though my understanding is it's more politically correct to say "loyalty." I'm well aware that there are two roads to achieve this: love and fear. Sometimes a man needs to employ a healthy dosage of both, alternatively.

PASSERBY ANALYTICS HQ SURVEY

ANSWERS PROVIDED IN-CHARACTER & ANONYMOUSLY

1. Rumors say that the League is developing suits that match the style of a Pokemon a trainer has bonded with. Which Pokemon would you select as the style for your suit and what would it look like?

An outfit like Hatterene's would be very cute!

8. Do you believe in free will or fate/destiny? Why? If the latter, do you believe you know what your destiny is?

I believe in free will. Even if there is a destiny someone or something is imposing on you, you have a choice whether to follow it or leave.

Riddle: I have rivers without Basculin and roads without cars, I have deserts without heat and snowlands without cold, I have mountains without height and canyons without depth. What am I?

SURVEY #1 "Rumors say that the League is developing suits that match the style of a Pokemon a trainer has bonded with. Which Pokemon would you select as the style for your suit and what would it look like?"

If its the pokemon I have the tightest bond with, than that would be Azula my houndooom. I suppose they would give me horns, probably a tail, and stuff like that. Who knows. Sounds stupid.

SURVEY #2 "All skilled trainers have a rival! Who's your rival and why?"

I don't think I do. Though, I don't really like the man who took the girl I liked.

SURVEY #3 "Do you agree with the League's plan to warp the incoming meteoroid into an alternate universe Hoenn? Why or why not?"

Who and what now? Man, a guy takes a little time for himself and comes back to utter chaos and destruction.

SURVEY #4 "What do you think of Avatars, people who have been bestowed powers by legendary Pokemon? Do you believe it to be a blessing or a curse, or is it something humans should not meddle with?"

Seems cool, but humans tend to abuse power that isnt theirs.

SURVEY #5 "Why do you support the League/Team Rocket? If you are a member of one of these formal organizations, what compelled you to join?"

Why wouldn't I? I live here too.

SURVEY #6 "Select one of the following events and explain how it affected you. The Slateport Rocket Invasion, the Slateport Night Market Blacephalon Attack, the Ultra Beast Attacks on Mossdeep, The Ultra Beast War, the Sootopolis Takeover."

It was a headache, that's for sure.

SURVEY #7 "TERAVOLT, a Hoennian Rock Band comprising of Guitarist CALLAN YOUNG and Lead Vocalist ADRIAN MALCOLM, from Slateport City, have been finding massive success in recent years. Out of their DISCOGRAPHY, which is your favourite song and why?"

...

SURVEY #8 "Do you believe in free will or fate/destiny? Why? If the latter, do you believe you know what your destiny is?"

To a degree, yes. It is what it is.

SURVEY #9 "What is your greatest fear? If faced with said fear, how will you handle it?"

I guess it would be losing myself or my pokemon. And honestly, I'm not sure what I would do.

SURVEY #10 "What is your love language? How do you express affection and how do you like to receive it? If you are adverse to intimacy, why?"

... Is this really an appropriate question? Next.

SURVEY #11 "If you could be a Pokemon or have a Pokemon represent who you are, which Pokemon would it be and why?"

Good question. Azula would be my choice to stand in so I guess a Houndoom.

SURVEY #12 "How do you feel about their own mortality (or immortality)? If you were to die tomorrow, what would you do today?"

Enjoy life as I have it. See more of the world maybe. Attempt to be Champion.

SURVEY #13 "How do you carry yourself? How vocally expressive are you? How bodily expressive are you? Are there any catchphrases or verbal ticks that you find yourself repeating? Where do you think they come from?"

Hmmm... I've been told I can be rather intimidating, but I feel its just my confidence and conviction.

SURVEY #14 "Are you in the process of learning a new skill or researching a curious topic? What are you studying and why?"

No. My only goal is to climb to the top through earning it. I'm tired of seeing wannabes and nobodies holding high ranks.

SURVEY #15 "What do they need and want out of relationships (humans or Pokemon), and how do they go about getting it?"

... Again, I feel like this isn't necessary. Next.

SUGGESTIONS? "Do you have a suggestion for a future survey question? Please submit it below."

Questions that are more relevant than relationship crap.

RIDDLE "I have rivers without Basculin and roads without cars, I have deserts without heat and snowlands without cold, I have mountains without height and canyons without depth. What am I?"
