Mild spoiler for said scene/credit to Jackie for this one, lol: From the destiny colosseum training room scene, a fresh meme. I highly recommend reading this scene

So many weird people... a few humans, some weird pokemon, and soething that were not human. And a... she didn't know much about pokemon like her trainer did, but she did see an abomination that- Was that a fellow ancient Pokemon? It almost seemed like one, yet not. Huh. And a weird fox, talking...

His heart twisted and he pulled harder against the radiant bindings. No. He didn't want to think about any of it, any of the thoughts that haunted him. He'd kept it in for this long and he could keep doing it. They could forget about all this, pretend it didn't happen. The shadows around his...

The bands lashed around Koa and he howled, the radiant energy sending a flash of pain through him. "You dont understand," he said, his voice teetering on a dispairing wail. He pulled away from her in vain. You're a monster and you liked hurting her. That's what you are. It'll never be ok...

As Brisa drew near, the shadows around him deepened, turning nearly black. He glared up at her, neck craned, fangs bared and a perpetual snarl in his throat. Dark lines trickled down from the corners of his eyes, as if they had been stained with tears, though his eyes remained as cold as ever...

All the time, all the energy he spent tearing himself down, reminding himself how he was never good enough. How he couldn't do enough. It felt good turning that away. Directing it anyone but himself. It eased the dark voice in the back of his head. And it was working. Brisa had slowed. Not by...

Koa didn't think. He didn't need to. Brisa was fast. Time to make her weak; slow her down. He danced backward, surety in his steps. "You want me to show you what I'm capable of?" Do it Koa. Tear her down. Easy enough. Shadows rippled over his form, gathering around his jaws. "You're weak...

Don't think about it, Don't think about it. He didn't want to remember any of it, he hated thinking about any of it if he just ignored it he wouldn't have to. His chest felt tight. Wisps of shadow gathered around his feet. He did it because of you Koa. "My...fa-" he couldn't say the word...

Koa stood stiff, trying not to move. Don't back down, don't back down. Fourteen. She's not so different from you. Just say something, coward. Except what happened is your fault. If you were better or stronger or smarter he wouldn't have done it. You should have saved him. You weren't enough...

Koa looked every where he could, except Sombra. He couldn't quite bring himself to make eye contact with her eerie golden gaze. Instead, he tried his hardest to stare anywhere else. Why couldn't she just stop talking and leave him alone? There wasn't anything he had troube admitting to. If...

Koa listened intently to Brisa. Unease lingered in the back of his mind but he ignored it. Brisa was wrong on this, he was sure. He was low-key, like that Cabot fellow. There wasn't much he was pushing down. Everything was fine, he was happy on his journey, he was getting stronger, he had...

Sombra's words sent chills down his spine. The way she spoke, she she carried herself, so weary. Was that how Brisa felt? Like she had to help everyone but get nothing? What about you? Think she'd want to help someone like you? Koa pushed the thought aside. He had nothing to hide from, he was...

A tiny grin tugged at the corners of his mouth. Brisa thought he was improving. Warmth spread through his chest. The praise felt so good. Made him feel like he could do anything. "I'm ready. Show me how to use Shadow." He recalled Brisa mentioning it last time, how it was fuelled by hidden...

Koa nodded in understanding. He could do that. For Icetales, for Brisa and more importantly for this world. He'd come here to save it, and he intended to do that. "I won't let you down," Koa said, some of his confidence returning. He paused for a moment to cement the memory of what that had felt...

She'd told him. Yet still he'd let himself get carried away like that. He needed to control it. But what could he focus on? He hardly had any friends here. He was friendly with a few of the others, yes. Shiron seemed nice. Icetales had encouraged him, and Brisa was... well she was his mentor...

For a long second, Koa stared at Brisa, electricity still crackling and his body tensed for a fight. Her words turned over and over in his mind. He'd done it already. Her words were true, he could sense it, feel the sincerity behind it. He got it already. Slowly, he started to relax. The light...

His mind was already off and running, trying to plan another strategy, when he caught her words. Take a breather? Why? he was finally doing well, making progress training, and she wanted him to stop? "I don't need a breather," he replied, his voice full of confidence, or perhaps arrogance. Was...

Yes, yes finally. He'd done it! No, he was doing it. Was this how it felt, to actually be strong? A smirk played across his jaws. Oh, he was just getting started. He had much, much more to give. The radiant barrier around him that had amplified his cry still remained. Time to see how far he...

Pride rushed through Koa. He'd gotten a pretty good hit, even if Brisa managed to protect. He was improving and it felt so right. With Brisa's whiplash, he felt his confidence surge. Finally, finally he was proving himself. Showing everyone how strong he could be. That energy, the same energy...

Brisa was right. This whole time he'd been thinking like a human. Jump in, jump out. Attack, defend, dodge. But he was a Pokemon. He had so much at his disposal. Still running, still moving, he Snarled again, more to disorient and weaken than damage. That alone wouldn't be enough though. He...
