Pokemon Umbral Discussion 30: Less and Less About Pokemon Each Day

[Dracorion]

You know, I totally forgot to rail on Geminex for that part.

But yeah, Bard said it. Pokemon stay and fight for their masters, even if their masters are stupid enough to put themselves in danger in the first place, for several reasons. Comraderie is usually the most prominent reason, I think.

Imagine if you will that there's a war going on. Joe and Jim are best friends and soldiers for their country. Suddenly, Jim takes a bullet to the leg! Jim is bleeding out right there on the battlefied. You think Joe is going to be thinking "nah, the idiot put himself in danger in the first place, I'll just leave him there"? Fuck that shit, Joe is going to get Jim to safety. Or if Jim died, Joe would be pretty pissed at the enemies.

Of course, PATCA isn't military. So imagine instead that Joe and Jim are police officers.
