#and the final scene of ep 26... Amethio opening up to his partner when he would stay cold and serius with other people

[trelinha9]

Can we talk about the fact that the base forms for both of Amethio's pokemon are some of the cutest and most adorable pokemon out there?

And it's also interesting to me that some dex entries for Rookidee and Charcadet remind me a lot of Amethio.

Rookidee's Sword dex entry states:

"It will bravely challenge any opponent, no matter how powerful. This Pokémon benefits from every battle—even a defeat increases its strength a bit"

Which reminds me a lot of how he challenged Rayquaza alone with just two Pokémon without blinking. It was very reckless of him, and Ceruledge paid the price. And after his defeat, he (we assume, because for some reason we DIDN'T SEE IT) started training a lot so he could have a chance next time.

And Charcadet's Scarlet entry says:

"Burnt charcoal came to life and became a Pokémon. Possessing a fiery fighting spirit, Charcadet will battle even tough opponents"

Which makes a lot of sense and also reminds me a lot of Amethio. Amethio certainly faced very strong opponents (Friede, Moltres, Rayquaza and even Hamber), but so did Ceruledge. They face the challenges that appear before them together and united, and it is very obvious that Ceruledge cares a lot about Amethio and is extremely loyal to him. Which brings us to:

ARMAROUGE'S Scarlet dex entry, that states:

"Armarouge evolved through the use of a set of armor that belonged to a distinguished warrior. This Pokémon is incredibly loyal"

Among Armarouge and Ceruledge's dex entries, this is the only one that mentions either of them being extremely loyal. The entries for Ceruledge say:

"The fiery blades on its arms burn fiercely with the lingering resentment of a sword wielder who fell before accomplishing their goal"

"An old set of armor steeped in grudges caused this Pokémon’s evolution. Ceruledge cuts its enemies to pieces without mercy"

While the first entry may be a parallel to how Amethio wants to get stronger and capture Rayquaza before the other Explorers after failing his mission, the second entry (from Pokémon Violet) is basically the opposite of how Amethio's Ceruledge behaves. Ceruledge seems to be described as a dark Pokémon that ambushes its enemies and plays dirty to achieve its goals, but Amethio's Ceruledge behaves exactly the opposite of that! The truth is that this description fits Spinel more than any other Horizons character so far.

The only time we've seen Ceruledge disobey Amethio so far was in the battle against Hamber. Amethio ordered Amethio to dodge Dusknoir's Shadow Ball, but Ceruledge cut it in half. Why that? Because if he had dodged it, the attack would have hit the area where Ametio was and could have hurt him! Ceruledge always obeys Amethio, but when the situation is to obey Amethio and complete the mission with the consequence that Amethio's safety is at risk, Ceruledge will choose to protect Amethio, even if it means disobeying. Ceruledge's loyalty is to Amethio, not the Explorers.

Also, a little bonus:

Rookidee's Violet dex entry says:

"The females are fussier than the males. If another creature dirties a female Rookidee’s wings, it’ll peck the offender relentlessly in a burning rage"

I'm mentioning this... because it's adorable, and I really want Amethio's Corviknight to be a female because of this entry :3

So, basically: I need more young Amethio with Charcadet and Rookidee fanart
