It's finally come to this; you're about to pick your starter Pokemon so you can set off to become a Pokemon Master. Actually, maybe you're hanging out at the Pewter City Gym so you can test a trainer's might. Or, did some guy just steal your bike, and you're sticking around until you get it back?
Hmm, it would seem like we have a predicament on our hands. You can't go about your Pokemon business if you don't know who you are. Our original Pokemon heroes - Ash, Misty and Brock - each have their own roles to play in Kanto. You might be suited to one of them far more than the other two. In fact, you probably are.
As it turns out, these three heroes represent characteristics that exist in all of us. Everyone is part bike theft victim, part bike thief; everyone spends some time in life walking around with their eyes closed.
Are you waiting to figure out which person you are before starting your epic Pokemon journey, as a psychologist would recommend? If that's the case, you've stumbled upon just the right quiz. By the end of it, we'll know if you're Ash, Misty or Brock - and you will, too.
How's everything?
Before we try to figure out which Pokemon trainer you are, let's start getting to know each other first. There's no need to take this stuff too seriously. Tell us, in the most general way possible - how are things going for you?
Which of these Pokemon is your favorite?
Alright, now let's get down to business - we have some identifying to do here. Every Pokemon trainer has their preferred types of Pokemon. Tell us which of these three is your favorite, and we'll try to figure out who you are.
What kind of music do you listen to?
We have no doubt that you've brought your iPhone and earbuds with you on your Pokemon journey. There's a lot of walking around involved. A person's music tastes can reveal a lot about their character. What sort of music are you into?
What do you think about rocks?
Rocks are great. In fact, we're all on a huge rock right now, floating in space. Some of us think about rocks quite often, while others don't think about them at all. Since you're thinking about them now, what's your opinion on rocks?
Do you fancy a swim?
Oh look, it's a pristine, freshwater pond, so clear you can see right through to the bottom. There's a Poliwag down there! It's a beautiful day for a swim, and there's not much else to do. What do you say - fancy a dip?
Do you want to be the very best?
It's time to get serious. We have a feeling that you might be the type of person who wants to be the very best. In fact, we know that there's a 33.33% chance that you are. Do you want to be like no one ever was?
Are you perceptive of your surroundings?
It's important for us to see where we're going, especially those of us on Pokemon journeys. A lot can take you by surprise if you don't take in your immediate surroundings. Some people spend their whole lives with their eyes closed. Is that you?
Do you like shorts?
Shorts are an important item in Pokemon lore. They're comfy and easy to wear. Still, some people don't like wearing shorts, even when it's super hot outside. If that's you, we'll have a better idea of which Pokemon trainer you are.
Do you have a rival?
Living in the Age of Peace, people these days don't really have rivals like they used to. It's partly a shame - a rival can be a useful thing to keep in mind when trying to be the very best. Do you have one?
Are you a punctual person?
We're happy to see that you've made it on time for this quiz, but is punctuality your everyday standard? Do you keep people waiting on you, or do you always arrive right in the nick of time? Let's see.
Do you think about Pokemon all day long?
Pokemon are the real deal. If nothing else, they give you a great excuse to go on an epic adventure. Some people spend their days obsessed with Pokemon, thinking pretty exclusively about catching, battling and befriending them. Does that sound like you?
Are you a hard worker?
When you're not doing your Pokemon stuff, how do you perform in your work life? Some people spend so much of their energy on Pokemon and things of that nature, they don't really pull in their weight at work. Are you a hard worker?
Can anyone beat you in a Pokemon match?
Now let's assess your battling ability. After all, that's the most important thing skill to have. When you're going one-on-one with a fellow trainer, is there ever a risk that you'll lose? Don't worry, you can tell us the truth.
When life knocks you down, what do you do?
This question is a test of character. As we all know, life tend to knocks us down from time to time. You can't control that, but you can control how you react. When life knocks you down, do you get up?
Are you nomadic or sedentary?
It's in our most ancient nature to be nomadic, though plenty of us liked the whole sedentary idea when we started settling down. There's definitely a lot of good to say about both. What sort of lifestyle do you prefer?
What's the most important characteristic in a Pokemon?
Pokemon come in all forms and sizes. As different as they are between species, each Pokemon within a species has their own unique characteristics to uncover. As an experienced trainer, what trait do you think is most important in a Pokemon?
What do your Pokemon mean to you?
Like their Pokemon, trainers come in a variety of styles. Some consider Pokemon their close friends, while others tools for their fun. Obviously, Pokemon have rights, and it's important to keep that in mind when training. What do your Pokemon mean to you?
There's a bug on your shoulder!
Oh no! Stop the quiz! There's a disgusting bug on your shoulder! Don't panic, we'll get the bug spray. No, that would be dangerous. We're sorry, we don't do well under pressure? With the bug slowly crawling to your neck, what are you going to do!
Do you like kids?
Phew, good. Now that that's over with, let's move on. What do you think about kids? You know what we're talking about - you were one of them way back when. Some people are the life of the party around kids, others don't know much of what to say.
If someone steals your bike, what do you do?
Let's say, for instance, someone stole your bike. We're not basing this on anything we've heard that happened between you three. This is just a hypothetical situation. For fun, imagine seeing someone cycle toward the horizon with your bike. What do you do?
Do you try to eat healthy?
Apparently, eating healthy is important. "Eat healthy and water your body plant," they say. If you do that, you'll live a long and healthy life. That sounds like a nice thing. Do you just shove stuff in your mouth, or do you think about it first?
Do you even lift, bro?
Now let's see what you're made of. Put your shorts on - we're going to the gym. Get ready to pump some iron with your favorite quizmasters. Wait, don't tell us it's your first time at the gym. Do you even lift?
Would you say that you're a calm person?
We all know that there's a certain trainer who isn't exactly known for being zen. In fact, she's probably starting to get nervous right now. Hey Misty, are you a calm person? What about you guys - are you getting triggered?
Are you planning on settling down some day?
Don't run away! We won't tell your SO (if you have one). We think we might have figured out who you are, but a little further assessment won't hurt. When you think of your life in the future, do you see yourself married with kids?
What's your outlook on life?
Okay, here's the final question. Then we'll let you get back to whatever it is you do. Would you describe yourself as a generally positive person? When you think of your life, your past experiences and future prospects, how do you feel?
