"hairstyles" being one of Arven's favorite topics in the Lodge in Pokemon Masters is, in my opinion, soft canonization of all of those fanarts where the girls are playing with his hair and putting barrettes and stuff in it and he just lets them do it

Since Kieran wasn't possessed by Pecharunt after all...there is still a chance we could get that storyline. Thought at this point, Kieran is on the way to his full-redemption (he still has a way to go).

But when the event for Pecharunt is released: What do I think would be interesting? If Pecharunt ended up possessing Drayton instead

This would be very interesting for the duo's dynamic. Drayton spent every encounter with Kieran purposefully trying to get under his skin and was absolutely brutal towards him when he'd just lost against us, and Kieran seems to actively despise Drayton at times.

After defeating the DLC, Drayton mentions that he's glad Kieran seems back to normal now, and he'd thought things would've have been patched up between the two of them by now, but they're just not there yet. Drayton actually wants to be friends with Kieran and says he wants to battle with Kieran again, even though Kieran has rejected his Blueberry League rank entirely.

That leads onto the Pecharunt storyline. As with Area Zero, if Pecharunt appears in the Terrarium, Drayton and Kieran could be the ones sent to deal with the fallout. They'd have to work together, which could lead to them finally hashing things out, or having a fight over everything that's happened.

But what if Pecharunt is gunning for Kieran, but Drayton pushes him out of the way and gets taken over? Or Drayton could just get unlucky and be the one Pecharunt chooses? Or he's silent and literally puppeted around? (It's giving Nihilego & Lusamine vibes). Either way, Kieran sees Drayton go all crazy and has his epiphany "Wait...is this what it was like when I went off the edge?" and realises he has to save the other.

Or maybe this is all just cause I think Drayton should get to go a lil feral. As a treat. Anyway, I just think we need more lore and interactions when it comes to these two together.

Liko, Roy, and Dot taking a selfie, you love to see it!

Can't wait to see what kinds of adventures these three will have in their time at the Naranja Academy.

Alright let’s not beat around the bush: the Pecharunt event was hacked into activation, people are playing it. Bulbapedia knows it, Serebii knows it, Game Freak knows it, you know it, let’s just get on with it.

Anyone expecting a more involved story with how the peach guy ties into Okidogi’s group will be bummed because it doesn’t do that. It’s basically an Ultra Beast plot straight out of the SuMo anime: an unknown Pokémon screws around by feeding people Mocchi which makes them do the chicken dance, and Ash and co have to shove it in a Beast Ball to get it to stop. (Funny enough the play through I watched used a Beast Ball). In context, Pecharunt doesn’t appear to be doing anything malevolent, making its connection to Okidogi’s crimes a bit questionable. I guess what I take away is it fed them thinking it was helping the trio, but the dim witted trio snapped and went to commit crimes, leaving Pecharunt to go “Oh SNAP! O:”

I imagine the intent was to have a goofy side story to lighten the mood after the Indigo Disk, but I dunno, it still doesn’t feel right, especially for what is, as of typing, the final entry in Scarlet and Violet’s game story.

Since it feels like a plot for Ash, I leaned hard into it on my end. After getting Shiny Terapagos, Team Rocket bonds with it and decides to go get some Mocchi to celebrate… Unfortunately they become possessed by Pecharunt, who reawakened around the same time as Okidogi’s group did. Unlike the games, this version is more openly malicious, and it seeks to take over Kitakami. Apparently in ancient times, Pecharunt was the one responsible for creating the war between the Four Treasures and the Loyal Three, pitting both against each other to see who would be best for its benefit. (As it happened, Lucius’ Six Heroes were also involved towards the end, and helped seal away Pecharunt and the Treasures in the temples Team Ash, Team Explorer and Team Rocket found the later in on Paldea.) In the modern day, when the Treasures were defeated once more, it proved to be Ash, Iono, Alfie, Team Rocket and the Loyal Three. Team Rocket succeeding in capturing Terapagos, the entity responsible for Terastalization, wound up being a huge bonus to Pecharunt.

Kieran, who didn’t drink the Kool-Aid, tries to warn Ash and the others, but Ash, Pikachu, and Iono get infected also, leaving Alfie, Kieran, Fezandipiti and Briar unaffected, and the only ones left who can stop Pecharunt’s army.

Can Alfie and the others stand up to the World Champion and Pecharunt’s onslaught?

Rather than the chicken dance, I thought it’d be funnier if Ash’s group instead referenced the dances from Overman King Gainer and Lucky Star.

Pokemon Theory: Penny and Koraidon/Miraidon

Something I've always wondered about Penny and Koraidon/Miraidon:

(I do NOT own these videos, I found this on YouTube for the sake of this post.)

Why does Koraidon/Miraidon like Penny so much?

In the Starfall storyline, there are moments when Koraidon/Miraidon comes out of their pokeball to lick/nuzzle against Penny, and it doesn't really do that with the other rivals/friends in the treasure hunt storylines.

Here's my theory why that is: Koraidon/Miraidon sees Penny as a kindred spirit.

Think about it:

Penny was a victim a bullying and it got so bad that she formed Team Star with other students who were being bullied in an attempted to teach the bullies a lesson.

Koraidon/Miraidon, at the final quest in the main storyline, is afraid of the second Koraidon/Miraidon, which is shown to be very aggressive and mean towards our Koraidon/Miraidon, basically being a bully to our Pokémon.

The bullying situation at Naranja/Uva Academy got so bad that students were afraid to attend classes in fear of the bullies, and I imagine Penny being one of the people being afraid to go to class due this.

Our Koraidon/Miraidon was pretty much driven away by the aggressive Koraidon/Miraidon in a territorial fight.

So, when Koraidon/Miraidon first meets Penny, it probably saw a bit of itself within her, a being that had been bullied. pushed around and driven away by bullies. So, when it nuzzles/licks Penny, it's probably saying that it knows how she feels and it understands her. But naturally, we can't understand what they're saying, so it settles for licking/nuzzling.

To recap, the reason Koraidon/Miraidon likes Penny so much is because they can understand what she's been through and can relate to her.

I think it would be hella cool if Geeta had a hobby as formidable and graceful as aerial silks. It would compliment her personality.
