Pokemon: Jordinio Version

After letting my maidenless Aerodactyl meet the future mother of his very expensive children, I decided it was about time to go see all my other pokemon.

There was only problem-

"Oh c'mon, stop sulking." I rolled my eyes at Aerodactyl who lay across the ground in total defeat. Even after I explained to him just exactly where Altaria came from and the fact he'd be mating with her, he still didn't budge.

Apparently the fact she didn't care for him at all and found him a disappointment outweighed the fact he'd get to mate with her. Well, I suppose I could get it. A pity lay wasn't at all good for the confidence after all.

Probably, I couldn't tell to be honest I'd never been in that situation.

I'd returned Altaria and Blissey to their pokeballs at least to ease a little of the humiliation he felt without them around to see him sulking.

Aerodactyl refused to look at me from where he lay on the ground, face buried between his wings.

Honestly, he is such a drama queen.

Huffing, I sat on his head as if it were a big rocky boulder. He had a massive head, and didn't even dip at all from my weight.

"You went about it all wrong," I sighed, shaking my head, "I mean, the stupid posing and crap to show off was pretty cringey mate, but that wasn't where you actually screwed up. It was when she rejected you and you got all over dramatic about it and resorted to this…whatever the hell this is."

"…Rooo…" he grumbled underneath me.

"Don't get huffy," I snorted, "Like sure I get it, this was what your first time interacting with a female you can mate with…probably. So it's understandable you were an utter failure at it with no experience, it just doesn't change that you came across pretty pathetically to her, understandable or not reality doesn't care about excuses."

That did it.

His grumbling turned into an angry growl beneath me at my insulting tone and he shook his head aggressively beneath to try and dislodge me as he began to rise up, raising me into the air.

I scoffed and reached down, grabbing him under his massive rocky chin before rolling forward towards the ground and pulling.

A yelp left his massive maw as I dragged him and spun him around with me as I flipped and landed on my feet and smashed him into the ground.

"Aero!?" he sputtered, eyes wide in shock as I planted my foot on his chest to pin him to the ground.

It honestly wouldn't do much if he tried to exert his full strength, but as always the shock of being tossed by a tiny little human shocked him into a stupor. After all, he has no idea he is that much stronger than me because of the way I've tossed him around.

The Dao of Bullshit is truly overpowered.

I leaned on my leg pinning him to the ground and smirked down at him, "What you should have done, is laugh her rejecting you off and not take it so personally," I told him, "At the very least you would have saved some of your self respect, and that's much more attractive than someone who does…whatever the hell you just did."

"…Aero?" he blinked, before cocking his head to the side as if to ask 'Really?'

"Yes," I said bluntly, "Really, someone who has respect for themselves is far more attractive than someone who doesn't, that transcends all race, species and gender. You would have come off way better if you just shrugged it off."

"Ro, ro aero." he shrugged his wings and huffed, letting his head fall back and lay against the tiled floor in defeat.

I have no idea what he meant this time though. Maybe something along the lines of if he only knew beforehand…maybe?

Well, it didn't really matter too much I suppose. The general meaning would roughly amount to the same thing in the end anyway.

"The confidence is a good start though I suppose," I shrugged and took my foot off of him, though he continued just laying there, "Either way, you'll be mating with her later on anyway, so buck up for now and shrug it off. The best thing to do, is improve yourself. Get stronger, make that confidence more real and get some experience with her so next time you run into a female you like, it doesn't turn out like this. Use this experience to make yourself better."

Aerodactly looked up at me, before sighing and kicking his legs and wings out huffily.

Very whiny looking actually.

"Oh get over it," I scoffed and rolled my eyes, "You might have been the strongest in that little cavern, but you were little more than a Poliwag in a well, you didn't understand just how vast the world is and don't know even now. I'll change that quickly."

Now none of this whiny crap.

Crouching down I grabbed him under his back and with a grunt, bodily lifted him up into the air above my head, drawing a yelp from the massive rock and flying type pokemon.

He kicked up a fuss like a whiny brat, but I ignored him in favour of carrying him off. It was time to go see all my other pokemon here at the Viridian City Pokemon Centre.

He'll change his tune after he spends a night with Altaria.

Probably.

Hopefully.

And if he doesn't, well that is what training is for. He's just being huffy because he found himself going from top of the food chain, to the very bottom and nobody found him all that impressive beyond his species.
