- The reputation that ghost-type pokรฉmon have is partially why he's drawn to them. Feeling disconnected from humanity, he finds community with other "weirdos". He doesn't mind the morbid nature of some pokรฉmon either, believing it's hard to apply human morals to their situations.
@Evernobleking // hes also canonically experienced some sort of traumatic event where he almost died like this was a very fragile impressionable kid. lets put him on every screen in galar
@Evernobleking // TYSM I LOOOVE ANALYZING THINGS theres something to be said too about how allister says people tend to be scared of him and find him weird and its part of why hes scared of people but being a gym leader gives him a lot of positive attention on a massive scale
โฆ nowadays is to hide my hideous face if anything. First impressions matter, and all.
ใSaid mask then goes from flying upwards โ to landing on his skull with an audible bonk before it lands on the ground.ใ
What about your reason, little guy?
@Guardianbirdsil . . . mhm.
it's a place of mystery, not just anyone gets in . . . only trainers that want to train, or have questions about ghost-types.
or. . . want to challenge me outside of the gym challenge, for whatever reason. . .
but a lot of tourists think it's like a haunted house.
a lot of people stop by my gym this time of year . . . not usually for the right reasons.
it's not exactly meant to be an attraction, but gengar's been scaring people off. . .
so i guess i shouldn't worry about it . . . ๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝ
@Evernobleking //YUUUUP. leon is the champ everyone looks up to and allister is this "it doesn't matter how young you are you can do anything!" success story bringing more attention to the gym challenge. even if the whole thing is so scummy the more you look at it
@Evernobleking // it was likely bea who urged him to not give up after that since she eventually shares the gym with him, and he has to adopt the mask to get over his fear of crowds. i KNOW some of the others are raising a brow but like... we shouldn't say anything probably
@Evernobleking // rose offered him an endorsement to participate. he had special circumstances to only battle when the audiences had left , which obviously made him very unprepared for the championship cup when he lost first round. but this very much got him public attention
@Evernobleking // EXACTLYYYY IT'S SO TRAGIC. LIKE. ESPECIALLY SINCE I DON'T THINK ALLISTER HAS ANY FAMILY. THERE'S LITERALLY NOBODY TO STICK UP FOR THIS KID BUT LIKE... NOBODY CAN SAY ANYTHING WITHOUT IT POTENTIALLY BEING AN ISSUE </3
@Evernobleking // its so funny leons one of the adults to actually seem to gaf about child safety too so its like. oh alright we're just doing this now??? nobody saying anything ? i mean i guess
// whenever i talk about allister likely being influenced / manipulated into becoming a gym leader / public figure at such a young age it's always because looking at his dialogue it's really really hard to believe he would just decide to do that all on his own
(Shield, Pokemas)
@Evernobleking // I THINK ABT HIM AND LEON SOMETIMES IT'S SO FUNNY TO ME hey leon we're gonna introduce you to the new gym leader hes younger than your little brother don't even worry about it
