#I just thought it'd be fun to try and write as many stupid rumors as possible and then write what'd she say.

Ohhhhh boy, since Gym Season is coming to a close, the rumor mill is really spinning. Do you want to know some things that I've heard? I'll tell you some things I heard.

To clear things up, as they get older, Allister and Bea are still going to share Stow-and-Side Stadium and neither of them have any intents on taking it for themselves. I talk with these two regularly, we're friends and we train together. They're best friends, and they've confirmed this with me personally.

Also, Circhester Stadium might finally get handed off to someone not in the Snowdun family. Someone from the Minor League is going to get a promotion until Gordie and Melonie figure something out. Not sure who yet (That's usually decided after the Gym Challenge.), but I've got my eyes on the Flying or Electric leaders.

Rapid-fire round for fun: Milo is still not Nessa's official rival, Nessa is going to continue wearing her swimsuit as her official attire, Kabu is not retiring this year, Bede still has his old Psychic-type pokemon and they still live happily he just doesn't use them for battle, Marnie is in fact changing her official attire this year, and Raihan is not going to move to Triple Battles.

Also, by far my favourite rumour I've heard so far about myself is that my insistence on wearing dresses and skirts is just a sponsor thing for clothing companies. Actually, I just don't like wearing pants. They're restricting.

And I'm just going to address this now before it gets out of hand again: No, they don't keep hitting me with pokeballs on purpose. It's almost always an accident. The one exception was James doing James things, and he didn't even throw it hard.

Oh, and I can't forget this one! Challenger Pia did not smuggle a Leavanny into Galar. I don't even know where that one came from. However, Challenger Phoebus did absolutely illegally get a Castform from Sinnoh. He has been arrested, and he's awaiting trial.

Yes, Opal and Mangolia are still alive. No, Mustard will not be rejoining the League, but Honey and a few dojo students were considering. We're still working through that. Yes, Rose is still in prison, that was at least 10 life sentences he was given. He's not getting out any time soon. No, we're still not answering questions about Sordbert and Shielward. Yes, we're trying to start a ranger program. The Knights of the Wild may be an ancient organization, but it's basically volunteer ranger work. Yes, we're trying to bump the minimum age up to 15. You know why.

This isn't too dramatic of a year, all things considered. You should've seen the backstage when I was 13. I will never understand how Team Rocket keeps cropping up everywhere, but I have never been more annoyed since then.
