#ok i just checked pl;a pokemon Don't actually have abilities! Damn! HDJDJDKFJFJF

[euclydya]

THAT DOES!! and also that's Hilarious oh my god @takemetotheastralagain Volo can keep his Pokemon at a cost HFJDJFJFJF

another question regarding people that were smuggled in, if you don't mind! [lighthearted]

SOOOOO Volo was successfully smuggled in, I know that. But! He's a Pokemon trainer! I assume his team also got smuggled in, since he's never seen without their pokeballs on him somewhere, but my question is would they count as Outside Powers and be unavailable? Or are they also fair game?

[Pokeballs can canonically be unusable in some circumstances so if they're unavailable despite still being in their Pokeballs that's cool, but Also they get automatically released if their pokeballs are broken or heavily damaged—if that were to happen would that be okay? I Prommy My Friend And I Writing Our Lore Fics Will Not Try To Godmode Shit With Pokemon LDNDJDKDKCKCKF though that'd fit into Volo's character bc he tried (and failed!) to do that in his source lmao]

sorry for all the questions btw but THANK YOU for taking the time to answer em!! Ik this is all for fun n shit but I don't wanna. Accidentally Break Rules Somehow y'know FHHFDJDJDJ

okay here's the funniest way to resolve this. he can let them out of the pokeballs and order them around but they are depowered like jesus. they are simply fancy animals. unless it's like. necessary to their life or like. funny.

like if its a charmander they still produce tail fire but can't do attacks like an animal couldn't do. it can fuck you up with the teeth and set you on fire with the tail

if its an eevee. thats just an animal.

lets actually say they can keep like. their default attack. like the first one they can do. the showrunner is powering them down but can't do it all the way.

uh basically they're allowed to be MORE powerful than firestar but LESS powerful than Percy.
