[Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins

[Dragonstrike]

The fact that there's no backstory for Cottonee like for example Kirlia or Raphael have (means, when obtaining Cottonee from Professor Mallorn, it was the real first time Pokemon and Master met) and no purpose like Zippy (Honey Gathering and thanking them for it constantly) makes this somewhat a tad bit more sweet for me. *cuddles imaginary Cottonee-plushie*

In Zippy's case, it's a bit more meaningful for Nathan than that.  He empathizes with Zippy a lot.  The fact that Zippy was the first to hit double 5s isn't really surprising if that's considered.
