20 Things James Doesn't Talk About

by Watches Foxes

Welcome to the second Thing James Doesn't Talk About. This one also deals with James's family and I like it a bit better than the first one. Enjoy.

2. James is not especially proud of where his family money has come from.

As sole heir, James was required to learn the proud history of both of his parents' ancestry. James, a life-long Pokémon lover, was horrified to learn how their money was made. His father's family had built an empire around the illegal mining and distribution of rare elemental stones—made profitable partly by paying the police to look the other way and partly by sending pokémon and children into heinous and deadly conditions. His mother's grandfather had developed a steroid that exponentially increased a Pokémon's strength and stamina while significantly decreasing it's quality and duration of life—and sucessfully marketed it as candy.

James loves his Pokémon. I don't think he'd be too thrilled with the concept of using evolution stones or rare candies on them, because they are his friends and his babies (his words,there. Not mine.) And well, rich people are generally rich for a reason. This technically is exclusively head canon but I like the idea of James's family money tainted by Pokémon abuse. You may have noticed I don't like them very much...I hope you enjoyed this. I'd love a review, but no pressure. :D
