In my head, Ogerpon is an RPG protagonist with:

a "fantasy-forbidding" single mother who was the hero of her own story, during which Ogerpon was adopted, and refuses to let Ogerpon on the battlefield,

older siblings who nudge her towards her dreams, even if it means disobeying their mother, and younger siblings who offer battle experience via actual battles,

an absent father she's only ever met like three times, but whose presence is felt in how her mother's treatment of her is informed by his absence, who left mostly because he got mind-controlled by the big bad, and

a nemesis who was responsible for the death of her first family and the separation of her second family, whom she ends up fighting with the power of love and family and The Cudgel

And this is what keeps Toxic Chain Kieran on the table for me

#pokemon scarlet and violet #pokemon ogerpon #dipplinshipping #trainer kieran #trainer juliana #rival kieran #i was just thinking about how i wouldn't want Ogerpon on the battlefield against Kieran realistically #then it spun out of control as Ogerpon and Miraidon are bench buddies and Juliana breaks her kneecaps by using only four from her team #at least until endgame when Miraidon joins as a fifth combat-ready member #because when Juli asked Kieran what he'd wanna do if he met the ogre #his answers were all non-combat related and very wholesome #and Ogerpon is so grateful that her trainer adores her but she also wants to pull her weight #so she gets training montages from everyone #and after Miraidon starts fighting she tries to get Juli to get her to put her on the field because she feels her benched status more keenl #but in the end she has to force herself out when Juli is on the verge of quitting Kieran's battle because Miraidon is struggling to do a 1v #so she comes in with Follow Me Grassy Terrain Spiky Shield and Synthesis for a tank build #that Juliana had no part in and didn't even know existed #Ogerpon swaps out Synthesis out for Ivy Cudgel so she can bonk Pecharunt
