ASKS! GOTCHA i would like to hear your thoughts on the sinnoh stat trainers if u want......

STAT TRAINERS MY BELOVED. PEOPLE WHO GET BRUNCH TOGETHER EVERY SUNDAY AND GOSSIP AT MATCH PLACE. They’re besties.

They’re all the most normalest guys in Sinnoh. Like there isn’t anything too special about them, especially compared to people like Cynthia and the Sinnoh trio. But they still have involvement with the legendaries+mythical Pokémon in the region. And because of their friendships (by chance) with the legendaries they’re granted various gifts/miracles by them as a show of trust.

Cheryl - Cresselia | forever wonderful dreams. Probably has a stack of lunar feathers she gives out to protect fellow trainers

Riley - Manaphy | phione egg

Buck - Heatran | keeps the one warm area of Sinnoh, the battle frontier and match place by extension, well, warm.

Mira - Darkrai | anyone who crosses her gets eternal nightmares

Marley - Shaymin | plenty of gracidea flowers

They all met in which one of the stat trainers assisted or saved the pokemon in some form. And, again, they’re all by chance, but the legendaries and mythical Pokémon are pretty attached to them. And they both make a point to visit each other each day with both sides bringing gifts.

When Cyrus brought about Giratina and connected it and the distortion world, and went to try and become a god, the legendary Pokémon went awry. Natural disasters went about everywhere, people falling asleep suddenly, they became uncontrollable. But during the distortion world happenings, the stat trainers were the ones able to calm down the legendaries to prevent them from rampaging anymore.

Literally the only reason why Sinnoh’s topography isn’t as fucked up as it could be is because of the stat trainers.

The stat trainers were all assisted by dawn barry and lucas in some form, at least one of them also bearing witness to them saving the mythical Pokémon they helped out. And in these moment, both parties have their worldview expanded as they learn about the gifts of the world the individual pokemon represent and govern over.

But only the Sinnoh trio and the individual stat trainers know they’re friends with a legendary. The five may gossip together but they’ll take their relationship with the pokemon to the grave. They gossip together and they vaguely allude to something involving their friendship with a pokemon and go “oh no I almost let out my super duper secret” (everyone else is sharing the same secret)

Also one detail that’s not related to them as a whole but Barry wanted to give Dawn and Lucas gracidea flowers for everything that they’ve done for him so Marley helped out.

Their legendaries are assigned based on their stat pool although shaymin in particular I gave Marley because hashtag sinnohspe moment

Also Mira views Darkrai as a big ol puppy. Girls and their semi eldritch horrors.
