     Misty wants Ash, so she uses her bike as an excuse to follow him around. Brock wants Misty because...Well, he's Brock. And to be quite honest, I think Ash is becoming, if he isn't already, a Poképhiliac.

     The biggest problem with being a Poképhiliac is I can look at some random Pokémon content and internally react "How did they release this? It's so lewd," and it's just something like SWSH Promo Hydreigon.

     Before long, you're downstairs again. Only a few short minutes had passed since your incredible, mind-blowing, furtive Poképhiliac tryst with the hot Lucario upstairs. Now, you were at the bottom of those stairs, standing in the entryway near the front door again.

     Then it's a date. Whenever she's ready, send her to the zone. Or come with her. Always bring your friends for some pokephiliac fun
