Gym Leader Persona! 💥

Finally, I can be the change I want to see in the world: a left-handed trainer!!!

Wanna preface this with that MJ isn't /actually/ my name, it's a less common nickname. I really like it, but I love my first name so much that I always forget to introduce myself as anything else! 😅 It's totally fine to refer to me as MJ instead of Meatball/MeatballSander, either works (but if I see any "I'm Stuff" jokes: 🔫).


So anyway! I love Ghost Pokémon. So much. And as I'm a CompSci student, the idea of a haunted computer lab as a gym challenge is soooooooo enticing!! 👾

Which is why I must apologise for also being the very thing I swore to destroy:
One of my biggest pet peeves are when gym leaders have a Pokémon that doesn't match their theme type. Like I wanna curbstomp Raihan.
But I need Rotom on my team to fit this theme, Fan Rotom especially! Not to mention Fan Rotom is by FAR my favorite Rotom form, ever since it slayed in Musical Theatre for me in BW. I can't do without it. So let's just say this one is Tera Type Ghost or something.

I'm a pretty good loser, so I think I'd fit well as an early-mid game gym leader. If fought later Lampent and Golett will have evolved, and I'd tack a Jellicent (ability: Water Absorb) and Gengar (Cursed Body) onto the team.

Finally, fun fact: as a challenge, I decided to make the outfit from things I already have in my closet (albeit colors tweaked a little). I'm actually pretty pleased with how it came out!

Thanks for the challenge! 💜

OMG FELLOW LEFTIE??? MAN YOUR TEAM IS SO BADASS + i love the inclusion of rotom- i mean technically it SHOULD be a ghost type bc it can literally possess objects? BUT ANYWAYS YOUR GYM THEME IS SUPER CREATIVE! i can imagine how spooky it’d be to navigate 😱
