There is no replacement for human interaction, no matter how used to isolation you are, and no matter how affectionate your Pokemon are.
People will always seek company. It's in our nature.
It took a bit more than a week, but as you can probably tell from the tone of my writing, the high I was on is dropping quite drastically and my fears are once again rising to the surface.
The fear of not being a good trainer, not being good enough to take care of a Pokemon.
Why did I agree to this? I don't want Woobat to absorb all of this toxic negativity I feel. I know he feels it too. We don't know each other too well, but I know he does.
Anywho, Woobat and I decided on a name for him. It's going to be Jader(pronounced JAY-DURR).
Don't ask me why, we just both think it sounds cool, and he's not just another Woobat. He's my Woobat, for better or worse, and so I insisted on differentiating him. I think he understands my logic.
There are other things I feel I'm going to have to decide on soon, inevitably.
I'll keep you posted.
Smell you later, Fred.
