parsing through steven’s quote page on bulbapedia again to gather evidence for an essay i semi owe someone on instagram (why steven is so fucking ace-coded this will be posted Whenever i make my bullshit self-projecty argument) but today i learned that steven is probably the only pokemon character in existence to actually break the 4th wall outright! in the oras demo when you get items/the special pokemon he says “you can send these to your copy of the full game,” y’know just very normal npc behavior to reference the fact that he’s in a video game demo with very specific knowledge of a “full game” that will exist later on

#not art #cirrus dot text #unless the sm demo had text like this too but my mind has entirely blocked out gen 7 #steven is canonically the most powerful champion in the series #not in terms of that overdone RANKING ALL THE CHAMPIONS TEAMS IN COMP thing #but because he's aware he's a character in a video game and that's honestly more scary than it has any right to be #pov: you are playing oras and steven looks at the camera pulls out a gun and says no transferring items after your demo of life ends
