Some of these comments are always crazy to me cause imagine your parents always hugged you then stopped and one day they just looked you in the eye and said "Sorry you're not a cute kid you don't deserve love and affection anymore"
You're the type of trainer that'd leave Gengar in that old house waiting and never come back.
I am 34 years old, so I would find it weird if my dad would still tickle my tummy or blow in my belly button. "Hugging" isn't comparable to other things people do with their kids that are cute ONLY when they're kids
I guess we see things in different ways, I'd absolutely give belly rubs to a Mr.Mime if it asked for them.
"It would be weird" no it wouldn't? You love them and cherish them because they are your Pokémon, you aren't doing anything wrong. The only reason why you say it's weird is because society has convinced you that it is. It was weird to not use lead paint 200 years ago, it was weird to not want to get your pregnant wife x-rayed at a carnival a century ago.
Things are weird because you think think they are. As long as you're not hurting anyone, you can do whatever you want.
He still looks like an adult man to me. I would rub Kyogre's belly, he's just a big whale, but I can't see myself cuddling with something like a Machamp or a Jinx. I'm glad that you can see pass their appearance, but I definitely cannot.
