Angel giggled. "No, no, not because it isn't unpolluted, but that is a thing there. No, most Pokemon look different there because of their habitats changing. I'll give you an example. Vulpixes were introduced into the island a long time ago, but because of predators and human interactions happening in the forests, they had to leave and go up the mountains, where they became Ice-Type instead of Fire-Type after generations of living up there. They are also known as Keokeo.
"Digletts were introduced in the Alola region as well, but predators caused them to switch habitats to live near volcanoes, where they grew a mutation when living near such hot and arid locations. They grew some golden glass hairs, which are actually a form of lava. The only ones to have changed due to pollutions would be the Grimer line, since they were introduced to the region to fix their garbage problem. It is also why they are so colorful due to the different chemicals they ingested. I can keep going on and on about those Alolan Pokemon, but I should probably shut up now," she chuckled, scratching the back of her neck in sheepish embarrassment.
Zorro sighed and transformed into a dark-haired, averagely tall man with piercing red eyes, still keeping his composure. He then began to speak in the human language due to his illusionary effects: "I heard you got angry when Shiori forfeited and destroyed your pride. Well, yea, that can be quite devastating for some-Pokemon like you, but you need to see it through his eyes. He's a young boy whose trying to find himself in the world, which is why he made Karpman in the first place. He's probably already down on himself from forfeiting or depressed or something. Your actions just made him feel worse. Now, I'm not going to babysit your behavior because I'm not a father... Yet," he chuckled, wondering if Angel would find him a mate soon. He continued:
"But I can tell you that his feelings are pretty hurt. I have seen this situation like this before though, and want you to know that power, pride, and victory aren't everything. Quaju, Angel's Greninja, thought that power and pride were everything and never wanted to forfeit a battle to avoid looking bad, and never wanted to dance with Angel, which the latter is quite a sin in our team. He even went as far as going against her orders to return, seriously injuring himself in the process, and never letting Angel heal him. He was the most ruthless Pokemon on our team, and one who couldn't be trusted, no matter what. He only began to see why she would do these things after she forced him to forfeit by stopping him herself. He tried to harm her due to her stopping him, and that's when he realized why she wanted to forfeit battles. It wasn't to avoid winning or wasting his skills or making him look bad or deflating his ego - although he needed that, too - but because she has had enough watching her Pokemon get hurt and knew that Greninja wouldn't be conscious any longer. He nearly killed himself trying to be the strongest he could be in that last battle. Since then, they both have compromised to be better for one another, with Greninja accepting being healed and dancing a bit, and Angel letting him fight without commanding him all the time and without mothering him. Now, they are inseperable. That happened only 2 years ago.
"Now, I know your situation with Shiori is different, but I wanted you to see that there is a way to go about this rather than being selfish about your actions and desires. Yes, he forfeited, but he had felt terrible before the battle. He didn't even know if he could win, especially when his Gyarados and you nearly fainted. He was watching you and making sure you wouldn't hurt yourself anymore than you already were, and since his team was nearly down, he couldn't bear the thought of letting them knock you out or hurting you severely. Please, he cares about you a lot. I'm not telling you to apologize to him, but it's probably a good idea, especially from the grief you put him through. Be nice to your trainer. They are the ones we look up to when we don't know what to do anyway. They are smarter than us and you may scoff at that, but their brains and understanding are more vast than some of the Pokemon species living on this planet, mainly because they don't have instincts to deal with. They are also our closest friend when we have nobody else. Either look through his eyes and understand him, or keep having problems like this for the entire time you'll be together. No trainer has to go through what you just did. He should be understanding and thoughtful of your end, too, as well as trusting in your abilities, but I saw the way you battled. You battled phenomenally, but I saw you almost getting knocked out by that one hit, so I could see why he forfeited. He knew you didn't like it, but he did it for your safety. Please, understand..."
