[It's already a challenge for Hope. He has had A Time the last 169 years and even before that what with going crazy from hallucinating a pink-haired woman all the time. Thanks God.]

Those who arrive here in the same manner we did get a partner pokemon like these, yes. We can do what we want with them, really. Keep them as a pet, battle with them, anything I suppose.

They're pretty sentient animals though, too. I'm not going to be a trainer though, I'm tired of fighting, even if this is for sport. I just haven't figured out the alternative yet.
