I had my worries just confirmed now.

Poor idiot.

However given the fact that unlike our last "trainer" Tex actually gives a fuck about him I have hope for healing.

We may not be out of the woods yet, but I think there's a real chance with Tex. I'll continue to lend my support to them, until this is through.

Tad: Arc, I hope you're able to help the poor little guy

We'll do our best. They'll have the support of our rehab center, and if any trainer could help him, I'd say Tex is a good choice.

Joseph Amber: That’s…rough. But I hope y’all can figure it out…

u/Wanderer_of_Sol Scroll - semi-retired trainer + PKMN Rehab Assistant 6d ago

Thanks Joseph. We've got a general plan for treatment, but all we can do is our best.

Its... too early to say. And since there's not really any research on this kind of thing, we don't know what to expect. It really all hinges on if Jetstream and Tex can form a strong enough bond to mega evolve, and just hope that elevates the build up of mega energy.

Oh dang, you know Prof. Sycamore? Neat.

u/Wanderer_of_Sol Scroll - semi-retired trainer + PKMN Rehab Assistant 6d ago

Oh man, I thought I blocked out his info. Wait I did. I guess he's fairly popular, so not that hard to guess 😅

Yeah, we met in Sinnoh when we were both in our late teens, or so? My partner's an ex-champion, so we end up at a lot of the same events and travels some of the same circles. He's a pretty cool guy.

u/Draconichaos Tower of Mastery Disciple 6d ago

It disgusts me to think that there are trainers out there who treat Mega Evolution with such blatant disrespect, such disregard for the bond between people and Pokémon. All they see is the power, not caring about the risks. Still, if Skarmory’s trainer understands where they went wrong and are trying to help with the recovery, I suppose I can withhold my judgement.

u/Wanderer_of_Sol Scroll - semi-retired trainer + PKMN Rehab Assistant 6d ago

Well, the trainer that did this is currently in prison for this and apparently other crimes that are much worse. Jetstream's current trainer rescued them and is dedicated to helping them. That's why they brought this poor guy to our rehab center. My partner started Silverwing Rescue and Rehab as a bird rehab before we branched out to other types of pokemon, but we've got a lot of experience with avians specifically.

u/Retextleather4119 Ghost in the machine trainer accomplished engineer 6d ago

Can confirm, I've done mega evolution a few times and it's a really special thing that you have to get right or everyone loses. So I'm definitely going to be careful with this.

2

u/Draconichaos Tower of Mastery Disciple 6d ago

Ah, I see. So Tex is not responsible for Jetstream’s suffering?

1

u/Wanderer_of_Sol Scroll - semi-retired trainer + PKMN Rehab Assistant 6d ago

No, Tex took him in after he was abused by his previous trainer. It's difficult to home an injured pokemon, but Tex stepped up. And as a very qualified steel type specialist, I'd say Jetstream is in the best hands I could think of.

2

u/Draconichaos Tower of Mastery Disciple 6d ago

That’s good to hear. As for Jetstream’s previous trainer… well, the less said about them, the better.

If you want, I can ask Lady Korrina for advice on your situation. Her extensive experience with Mega Evolution, as well as her recent adventures in Lumiose City, should prove valuable in ensuring a happy end to this tale

u/Wanderer_of_Sol Scroll - semi-retired trainer + PKMN Rehab Assistant 6d ago

You'd have to talk to Tex about that. My role in this right now is generally physical therapy and check ups. It'll be up to those two to do the real important stuff.
