#bitts the darkrai

[rehabber-valkyrie]

Took Bitts to get his vaccines today and we have a new contender for which of my Pokémon hate doctors more.

Getting a very upset Darkrai down from the ceiling is as hard as battling one

[rehabber-valkyrie]

I didn’t chose Bitts, he chose me. If he wanted to he could absolutely leave.

Screw master balls me and my homies hate master balls.

I don’t normally do anons but i think this is a hot take

Why are legendary pokemon allowed to be owned? Thats like, wayyyy out of the realm of acceptability!

listen. i don't like it any more than you do, but. who's gonna be the one to try and take a Raikou away from the trainer who fucking owns a Raikou

Fanart for "A Veil of Lies" while I continue to learn how to draw exactly.

Hey it’s me, Bitts anon, here to ramble about the old man again! (I have no idea how long Darkrai can live for or how old they actually are but Bitts just has Old Man Vibes, y’know?) So first off, he is hard of hearing, and it’s probably from an old battle or several of them. He can get hearing aids though and I’m excited to see how he feels once those come in! (1/3) (Sorry bout the multiple parts…)

((Don’t apologize, it’s perfectly fine))

Oh, I bet he’ll be so excited to be able to hear clearly! Just be careful, all the new noises can be a bit startling for Pokémon, don’t want the old man getting stressed out!

...I’m so sorry, but the idea of a mighty Darkrai being scared of the doctor and hiding on the ceiling is kind of funny. Also, have you tried giving him decaf? I feel like that could help lessen some of the after-coffee effects.

Aww, he wants to give you flowers, that’s so sweet! Also, yeah, regular Repels don’t always work super well against stronger species like Darkrai. Max Repels may work though, as could Colbur Berry spray (literally just Colbur Berry juice and water), there’s just something about that berry that keeps Dark-types away.

Bitts anon- I only have a haunter, and hes a companion, not a fighter. Guess I just have a new grumpy roommate for a while? Its not all bad! Who else can claim to have a Darkrai hang out for coffee?

That's fair, I guess!

[rehabber-valkyrie]

It was very nice! Maybe one day he’ll let me do his hair, some flowers would look nice in it I think.

He may have also done that to distract me from the fact that he got attached to and started stealing for a sableye so that was a fun conversation to have. Hurray for learning that your Darkrai doesn’t know what personal property is! (Thankfully no jewels were eaten. Yet.)

Howdy professor! Valkyrie here! I wanted to share a moment I had with Bitts recently! When I’m especially stressed I tend to go and brush the nearest Pokémon with fur to calm down and usually Bitts doesn’t let me brush or touch him very much. But recently he shoved a brush into my hand and let me brush him! He’s very, very soft.

All in all a big milestone for us both I believe!

That's wonderful to hear! Darkrai are surprisingly soft to the touch, and while they can be reclusive, they enjoy a decent brush like most Pokemon do. Grooming almost any Pokemon is generally a great bonding activity, even with Pokemon who don't have fur. It sounds like a great milestone and a calming activity for both of you!

Lucifer grimaced at the sight of the trainer before finally turning the Darkrai.

"A rehab center? Alright. I'll bite. Why are you here. It's not often our kind needs help, after all. It's not because you WANT to be here, right? I mean, I get it, I stay with my trainer, too, but I don't see much reason for other darkrai to do so - it could be dangerous if we all follow along."

The elder looked around and spoke quietly.

"Can you even trust this person?"

Bitts turned away from his trainer towards the new darkrai, “You know it’s polite to introduce yourself before interrogating someone, right?”

“No, I did not need help. I am here because I want to be.” He sighed, looking at his claws, “I have seen the care Valkarie gives the Pokémon under her care, and I’m tired of hiding.”

“It has only been a month, take a guess.”

[rehabber-valkyrie]

Okay y’all know that one meme image of someone explaining something to a woman in bed or something?

Me trying to explain to Bitts he can’t start stealing jewelry to feed the sableye

[rehabber-valkyrie]

you legend ruiners disgust me, trying to act like legends are your friends

Bitts is my friend. He is here because he wants to be. If he did not he would not have let me catch him.

Say all you want about me, but it won’t change the fact that Bitts is here :)

[rehabber-valkyrie]

So.

Bitts spoke today.

Came inside absolutely soaked and stared at me for about thirty seconds.

And said two words:

“Fuck rain.”

[rehabber-valkyrie]

2 & 20 for the ask game?

2. I usually keep them out of their balls, I like having them around me! An exception is when it’s crowded, in places they aren’t allowed to be out (rare), or on long trips. Bitts is in his ball almost every time we’re in a town, just to be safe. Nightmares are horrible and in certain very rare cases his ability can be fatal, but again that’s EXTREMELY rare. But other than that they’re always out!

20. I’m pretty sure I’ve discussed this one before, but I got Tim as a sweet 16 present! He’s my first Pokémon and an absolute sweetheart, and a HUGE help when things get crazy here! Hypnosis is a very useful move.

[rehabber-valkyrie]

There’s not even that many fireworks on my island and yet I have both a mythical and several other Pokémon in my care freaking out on me

Happy new year yall

[rehabber-valkyrie]

Same story with Bitts. If he didn’t want to be here he wouldn’t be. I’m not stopping him at all.

why is it seen as acceptable for people to own legendary pokemon?! those are mythical chunks of history that people are trying to use as pets! it shouldn’t be a hot take to ban the owning of legends

I totally agree.

Don't own legendaries, y'all, they're basically gods

and no one owned Xerneas, fwi, it was just vibing in the forest and baby me had a Moment

[rehabber-valkyrie]

Watching Torner try to square up with Bitts is hilarious. Like watching a toddler try to fight a professional wrestler

Bitts just nudges him with a claw and he flops over like he’s been killed. 10/10 best entertainment I’ve had in ages

[rehabber-valkyrie]

What did Bitts steal though? xD

Jewelry. He is stealing jewelry from the neighbors to feed to Tourmaline and I am having just The Greatest Time over here!

[rehabber-valkyrie]

BITTS IS STEALING AGAIN-
