I've been trying to get my head around how to make these lazy laggards stop being lazy enough to date, but then it hit me. How, you ask? I believe you wanted to read the answer in the story I am going to write right now. If that's the case, then why are we wasting time? Onward with the story! ^-^
Snorlax (Female, 21)
Slaking (Male, 21)
Snorlax sat in front of a road, eating plants. A trainer named Jerry approached the Snorlax. He took out a Pokeball and spawned his partner Pokémon in front of Snorlax.
"Alright, Slaking! Let's get this Slowpoke out of the way! Hammer Arm, let's go!"
Slaking rolled his eyes and clutched both of his fists as they turned a glowing white. Then he lashed out at Snorlax and swung his fists at her, rolling her backwards.
Snorlax fired a Hyper Beam from her mouth at Slaking, but Slaking dodged without any sweat. "Use Focus Punch!" Jerry commanded to his normal-type friend.
Slaking's fist glowed white again, but it was only one fist and launched it at the bear's head, striking her backwards into a tree. To Slaking's and Jerry's surprise, Snorlax got up and launched an Ice Punch at Slaking's cheek, hurling him into the ground.
"Use Hyper Beam!" Jerry shouted. Along with Snorlax, Slaking released a full blast Hyper Beam. The collision of powerful beams of the same colours lasted for about a minute, and then finally exploded, creating a heck of a load of smoke.
"Yes, Slaking! Use the smoke to your advantage and use Fire Punch upwards!" Jerry cheered. Slaking speeded through the smoke squinting his eyes, unleashing a powerful uppercut of a Fire Punch at the poor damaged female slowcoach, the Snorlax being lashed out into the air.
"Go, Greatball!" Jerry bellowed, taking out a blue ball which looked like a Pokeball. He threw the ball at Snorlax with freakishly pinpoint accuracy; Snorlax drove into the ball. The Greatball landed on the ground as soon as the smoke cleared, so Jerry and the lazy sloth could see if the Greatball succeeded to capture Snorlax. And it did. Jerry ran to pick up the ball and raised it up in the air. "I caught a Snorlax!" he screamed happily.
(Later)
"Dinner!" Jerry called.
Jerry's whole team gathered around to have a nice big feast. Snorlax sat at the back.
Exeggutor and Skarmory sat opposite each other eating one bowl of food. Gengar and Lopunny both sat on their own. Slaking was looking for a place to sit, not looking very enthusiastic. He finally found the decision to sit by Snorlax.
"You don't look very hungry," Snorlax commented.
"I haven't eaten all day, but this is my normal face. I'm not that motivated," Slaking replied.
"I take it that you don't like Jerry very much?"
"No, I love Jerry. He's a really skilled trainer and looks after his Pokémon despite trying to catch 'em all. But I'm pretty lazy."
"Join the crowd…" Snorlax laughed.
Slaking got up and picked up a flower, then gave it to Snorlax to put on her head as an accessory.
"For me?" Snorlax stupidly asked, planting it on her head (pun unintended)
"Yeah. Since we have so much in common, we should go out," Slaking explained.
"Dating is too much work…" Snorlax grumbled.
"So is battling. But I battle with my trainer, because I love him," Slaking came back with, flirtatiously winking.
And you'll date with me because you..., Snorlax answered in her head. "I'm sold," she grinned.
After that, Snorlax and Slaking had a great time together. They hunted for fruit, ate together, and Jerry teamed them up in Double, Triple and Rotation battles sensing a good friendship and team from them both. Snorlax and Slaking both sat at a sunset on the beach.
"You know, normally I struggle when I battle because I'm not very motivated, but when I date, I enjoy it because I have the best motivator any Pokémon can ask for," Snorlax said to her boyfriend.
"Amen," Slaking replied, smiling. They both leaned in for a kiss when Jerry called Slaking for some training.
"See you," Slaking said, kissing Snorlax on the hand like a gentleman. Snorlax blushed and waved goodbye, until tomorrow.
Please let me know which is better for a 30th chapter special: A love triangle, a remastered chapter or a sequel?
Hint for next chapter: Once upon a "night" in the "winter"…
