About three things I was absolutely positive. First, I had a pokemon. Second, there was a part of me - and I didn’t know how dominant that part might be - that wanted to be the very best, like no one ever was. Third, Gary Oak was unconditionally and irrevocably a douchenozzle.

I guess it didn’t turn out too bad for a first attempt. But fhggh their head shape is harddd :C ))

GORGEOUS IS THE WORD, YES.
Have you ever been to Johto? What d’you make of the war?
hoenns always been buddy buddy with johto so been there more then a couple times in the past no problem
war is war. we got good reasons to fight. apparently so do they. but ours are better
((What are our reasons? from what I saw they seemed a bit…trite…))
((I’m going to go ahead and run with it being a very very similar situation as to what sparked off the First World War. I’ll throw this under a banner so it doesn’t clog up everyone’s dashes… Everything below the Read More is OOC.))
reblogging because of too many characters to just leave a note
Most of the reasons presented for WWI are external: however, given the unstable domestic situation in Germany at that time, perhaps End Run should also consider political unrest on a smaller, more localised scale as a cause for warfare. One of the theories for Germany’s participation in the war was the incompetence and aggression of Kaiser Wilhelm II, but also the fact that Germany’s rapid industrialisation never went through a period of democratisation that other countries like Great Britain experienced: thus, Germany was entering WWI with a political system almost identical to the monarchy and aristocracy it had when it first unified in 1871. When most, if not all, of the political power is concentrated in a ruling elite at the same time that modernisation is providing for the rise of a middle class (which has little to no political power), you get problems. Workers want rights. Aristocracy doesn’t want to give workers those rights. So Kaiser Wilhelm decides to get in on this whole war action going on with the idea that the divided country can get behind a war (especially one they win!) and thus quell some of the civil unrest that had begun to rear its ugly head.
That’s not to say that this was the ONLY reason for WWI, but it certainly is something to consider.
What with the rise of those Tunnel Arboks in Johto and perhaps rivals in Kanto, or the invention and possible privatisation of pokeballs, perhaps Kanto/Johto’s ruling elite are feeling threatened by the stirrings of revolution?
Personally for Sergei I wrote in an allegory to the Soviet “Decossackisation” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decossackization) for Johto: something traumatic enough for Sergei personally but not large enough to gain the attention of the world at large (as something like the Holocaust would), nor necessarily paint one side as black or white (for anyone other than Sergei, of course). Sergei’s a bit of an odd duck, as he sees himself more as a citizen of “Cossack” than a citizen of “Kanto”, so writing a motivation for him to go to war for either side would naturally involve a more personal reason than the grand machinations of nations preparing for battle.
