it was a tough decision, but in the end, Blastoise is the one that gets all the treats
as soon as you picked your partner, he started sniffing you
he knew, he picked the rare candy you had in your pocket and happily ate it right away
little did he know you had a backpack full of them, saving them for the day you finally had a pokemon of your own
he happily gobbled it all up, almost as fast as you could unwrap them... leveling up the circumference of his girth most of all.
he's always eager to show his "strength" by showing off his belly and smooshing you.
there's still a long way until he's level 100, but if he's this eager to stuff himself the whole trip, you know it won't be long before he does...
and so, you two finally depart.
