  • There is one actual romantic sidequest in Pokemon games, that involves another character falling in love with the player character, and this story unfolds in Pokemon Black 2 and White 2. But there is a secret underlying message to this story that involves the tragedies of love and stardom that remains unexplored.

    Fun fact: Did you know that after trading with Yancy/Curtis, you can sometimes check a TV and they'll be on an interview in their idol persona, and the Pokémon you traded them will be mentioned? I can't say for Curtis, but for Yancy, she'll say it was given to her by a precious friend.

    It's because of idol culture. They can't publically date because people need to believe they could date them. They can't have friends outside of work because their fans are supposed to be the most important. In a way, they're so starved for affection that they're willing to date someone they only know over the phone. It's sad.

      Yeah, except in that one they eventually went public about their relationship at some point in the middle, and nothing too serious ended up happening, which was really surprising to see knowing how Japan treats it's celebrities.
      Some fanbases are crazy though, especially in idol culture which it'd appear Curtis and Yancy were considering their attires, which makes it even sadder when you think about how important those small conversations must've been for them.

Last year, my brother cosplayed as Curtis to give the character more recognition. He believes Nate and Rosa are the very first Pokemon characters to have special someones. Yancy and Curtis are very much happy to be with Nate and Rosa; someone they can talk to the most.

He also wishes the Pokemon community to be more peaceful where they don't have to worry about the FAKE ships that were never true. As of right now, they admitted their errors on how they treated their characters and believe every character, including Ash Ketchum are FOREVER single and spreading the word would hopefully bring peace to the community. The only couples that MATTER are Nate & Yancy and Rosa & Curtis. So in repeat, Nate and Rosa are the VERY FIRST Pokemon characters to have special someones. All my brother ever wanted was to make the community peaceful by persuading many people to believe the ships that they keep seeing are fake and only like Pokemon for what it is on the inside.

      The irony of *HOW* they ended together when Sapphire confessed her feelings to Ruby *PRIOR* to him, "losing his memory", is where this ship sanked. And it's even more ironically hilarious that Franticshippers either TOTALLY ignored this small VERY important detail, or completely MISSED IT, altogether. 🤣
      ***SPOILERS***
      Long story short, Sapphire literally cheated on Ruby without knowing the boy she cheated on, as well as confessed her feelings of love to, being the VERY SAME BOY that not only SAVED HER when she was little, but is also the SAME BOY that she developed feelings for throughout the course of their journey together leading up to Sapphire's confession.
      🤭😆😂
      And to add insult to injury, Sapphire EVEN ADMITTED that she LOVED, "the boy" (aka Ruby), more than *THE BOY* that saved her when she was little. Which happened to be the SAME PERSON! RUBY! 🤭🤣😂
      So in retrospect, all this time throughout the Ruby & Sapphire arc, Sapphire fell out of love for the boy who saved her when she was little, and loved the boy that she had to compete against for 100 days MORE THAN (her words) than her childhood savior. 😆 Oh, the sweet irony lmfao! Cheatception, anyone?
      😆🤣😂
      It's no wonder, let alone a surprise that Ruby developed amnesia after the events of the Ruby & Sapphire arc. Sapphire literally did a doozy on him. 🤣

    For some reason, I was never into LiveCasterShipping ( Curtis x Rosa). I was more into Sequelshipping ( Hugh x Rosa). I like The Childhood Friend to Rival Dynamic more than Normie x Celebrity Dynamic.
    Edit: Okay, so Normie x Celebrity wasn't the right ship dynamic for LiveCasterShipping. I think Celebrity x Celebrity is the better way to describe that ship. Also in Pokemon Masters Rosa's support did say she going to be an actress. Sequelshipping could be describe as childhood friends to rivals to lovers dynamic.

    Curtis in his idol form kind of looks like Azure Striker Gunvolt, and considering that he likes electric type Pokemon, and that Joule who was Gunvolt's partner was an idol in the Gunvolt series, maybe that was Gamefreak's way of referencing that other game series.
    Seeing so many people talk so well in regards to Black & White plus their sequels, now I wish that when those games were new in 2010, that I had actually played them as I would have been in Highschool then, but during that time I was getting away from Console and Handheld gaming, as I was focusing on school and in order to socialize I would play on PC and there were a lot of MMOs to play back then, which is why I basically ignored everything that got released between the DSi launches, up until the 3DS era was in its final state with the releases of the XL shortly after Smash 4 had come out, and even though I had tried playing Pokemon X when I had gotten a 3DS then, I felt that I had kinda grown out of Pokemon, and it didn't help that the people at work who also played it, were freaking EV trainers that devoted their lives to making the perfect Pokemon, and after getting my ass handed to me by Greninjas with Protean, or the famous 1 hit KO Noiverns, it just killed any sort of interest I could have gotten for Pokemon again, since I wasn't willing to devote so much time to playing a silly game just to get perfect rolls for my Pokemon.

They are glad to meet Nate and Rosa; someone they can have conversations with the most, noting He also likes to think Nancy and Christoph were inspired by Vocaloid like Kagamine Rin and Kagamine Len. Yancy and Curtis are like the Jesse McCartney of Unova. To give the character more recognition, he cosplayed as Curtis last year, inspiring others to cosplay as the two idols in the future.

    Fun fact: In the fan game Pokemon Rejuvenation your player character's Mom is Nancy which likely means your father is the Black/White 2 Protag. He isn't present and I believe it's implied or straight up mentioned he died but Nancy is a very strong trainer which would likely come from dating a Champion, especially one in a region that hosts the World Tournament and the player character is very much a talented trainer.

He wished they were more popular back then in 2012 and Game Freak made their songs into a reality like "Xtransceiver Love" and "I'm Using A Quick Ball On Your Heart" and more solo songs sung by Nancy and Christoph. Last year, my brother cosplayed as Curtis to give the character more recognition. He believes Nate and Rosa are the VERY FIRST Pokemon characters to have special someones. Yancy and Curtis are very much happy to be with Nate and Rosa; someone they can talk to the most.

I tried everything I can to find new friends or new life. But, nothing I know worked. Btw.. fir dome reason, all of my ex friends found me, not me who found them, which may tells that my bad social skills can't find the good match for me, neither convince the good people for me that I am a good match for them.
    Meditation and self development are too bad for me. It only works to the opposite of my logical thinking that control my personality, and makes me always spot so many mistakes in what they do philosophically. It maybe works for emotional people, but I am mot like them.
