{desc=Pick your poison} TRAINERS PACK; CHOICE BETWEEN - TM 72 - VOLT SWITCH - TM 03 - PSYSHOCK - TM 40 - AERIAL ACE COORDINATOR PACK; CHOICE BETWEEN - TM 62 - ACROBATICS - TM 53 - ENERGY BALL - TM 57 - CHARGE BEAM In 100 words, write why you prefer being a trainer/coordinator (or why you think you are one over the other, or why you prefer contests/gymbattles. you get the gist)
Mention which package you choose and which TM you want.
example

created by arionne of pokemoncheyenne | lyrics from glad you came by the wanted [/style] [style=width:420px;margin:0 0 0 60px;font-family:georgia;font-size:10px; text-align:justify;] I haven't battled in a gym yet, nor versus a contest leader, but I think contests are more appealing to me because I hate to see Pokémon in pain. Battles shouldn't be until a Pokémon faints. If the Pokémon decides it's too much and wants to stop, it should definitely be an option! But that's just my point of view. So I want to be a coordinator, I think. I'll try both, though, before I make my final decision. Or both! But if I had to choose now, I think I want to be a coordinator. Yeah. Is that okay?

roselynn stone [/font][/center] Why do I choose coordinator? Easy, I get to show off how cute, beautiful, handsome and strong my Pokémon are, not just how strong they are. I feel like I get to try more ways of doing a move when it comes to being a coordinator rather than a trainer. To me, it’s like being a trainer who gets to show off their Pokémon in many ways other than brute strength. You usually have to put a lot more thought into how they are going to display their attacks, which is a challenge for me and I love challenges.
I'll take the coordinators pack and TM 57 CHARGE BEAM

Susumu glanced over each of the packs with a curious gaze, having some trouble deciding which one was more appealing. Well, he was a trainer first so he supposed it was the one he ought to take. With a nervous glance towards the interviewer, he sighed and gave in. "I'm more interested in being a trainer. It's easier to understand than contests, and I think trainers end up getting more respect in general." He glanced towards the TMs, taking interest in Aerial Ace. It would've been nice for a bird in his PC, though he didn't know which one yet.

[/center] I chose to be a trainer to prove I can be the best that there ever was, but to tell the truth. I just want to bond more with my Pokémon and tell them that they don't have a boring trainer. That I actually do adventures with them, and keep them active at all times. Even if I haven't won against a gym yet, perseverance is the key. So I plan on not giving up anytime soon, and I suggest everyone else to do the same. So I hope people will learn from this endeavor.

scarlette hawke " coordinator... or trainer. it's actually not that hard to decide, really. " solid red eyes flittered swiftly over the two packages. but she did, in fact, find the coordinator package more desirable. " i don't personally find the idea of sending pokemon out on a field to beat the shit of of each other. " by then her eyes became hard and she took a closer look. " being a coordinator means you can't just wipe everyone out on the field and win. you need more strategy than that. "

The trainer was the way to go and always had been this way for Blitz. He wanted to show his strength and make people squirm when they go against his behemoths. Contest were lame, they were too much about beauty and not power. They did not show a trainer's full potential. To Blitz the choice was very simple, a coordinator was a failed trainer. If someone could not beat someone in a battle, they tried to be more “pretty.” Because it was their consolation prize. Fainting was always the goal, pretty was just runner-up.

Coordinating is just not masculine. I just can't imagine, dressing up and achieving bizarre goals. Don't get me wrong I respect all Coordinators, well, I respect the craft. I am sure it's hard to make beauty out of attacks and stuff. Being a trainer is a stimulate. I feel like I really get to bond with the Pokémon I battle and battle with. That is what it's all about, taking out the singularity and becoming a unit. When I battle, I don't feel alone, I am a trainer, but I don't feel like one. I feel like an army.

I don’t really think either profession is better than the other. I just prefer being a trainer I guess. The pressure of having to perform and look good is gone and I can focus on increasing the power of my poke’mon. I guess coordinator’s poke’mon kind of remind me of a circus performance when they fight. I don’t get it. But I respect it as much as I can. I like the simplicity of a battle, without the technical aspects. It’s fun!

Abi nodded easily, “For me, being a trainer is more preferable than a coordinator, definitely. Though I admire the thought that goes into a contest, I think I'd rather build up my pokemon's strength and let them do what they enjoy doing; battling. Pokemon don't need to dance to survive, but they do need to train.” She paused for a moment before adding with a laugh, “How many pokemon really get by in life with just a dance routine, eh?” Shaking her head with mirth she pointed out the trainer pack she wanted. Definitely a done deal there!

Sebastian Curt I prefer coordinating over training for a lot of reasons. Though fighting is good to strengthen a pokemon's status in fighting, coordinating shows not only can they be strong but elegant. The way they take on hits, shine in their beauty all of it adds up to the focus of being beautiful. Beauty is what counts best, not to mention making others feel wanted. I prefer it over fighting because at times, fighting can get a bit aggressive, and all I want is to have a good relationship with my pokemon. That is why I like coordinating contests better.

I haven't done a gym battle yet, but out of the two, I prefer being a pokemon trainer. There are no time limits or pressures and I can go at my own pace, go where I want, when I want without having to worry about anything and I can take my pokemon with me, training them and battling them for fun or to make them stronger along the way. Its hassle free, and I can spend time bonding with all of my pokemon without them being just tools for me to use for my own gain. They're my friends too.

Liz shrugged casually as she considered the question. "Training over coordinating? I guess I prefer training then. You and your Pokémon discover news strengths and weaknesses and can battle side by side. It's not only about impressing the crowd. You set goals for yourself and succeed without the pressure or encouragement of anyone except for you and your Pokémon." Also, she noted silently, her parents would kill her if she didn't uphold the family tradition now. She smirked to herself, pleased with her own answer. "In any case, I just prefer training. It's become a huge part of my life.

Duh, trainers are way better! Pokemon are meant for battling, not silly dress-up competitions! What do you think all of those powerful attacks are for? Showing them off all artsy-like? Pokemon are creatures born and raised to fight! Humans are naive idiots to think that they can take pokemon and show them off like cute pets. It is the responsibility of pokemon owners to raise them to be as strong as possible. Entering them in beauty competitions just isn’t the way to accomplish that. It’s like the difference between a pop star and a professional wrestler.

I make my pokemon fight until exhaustion, and it makes them stronger. Strength is my goal. It has always been my goal. I will never, ever let myself be beaten down again.

I'm so new to all of this I don't really know which I prefer! On the one hand contests sound like a lot of fun, and sort of like the performances my dad used to do at home. On the other hand though, battles sound really fun and intense, and maybe not as hard? I'm not sure I could think up cool moves...
If I had to choose one though I think i'd rather be a coordinator. Being able to combine my love of juggling and showing off with pokemon sounds fun! Besides my pokemon is named Jester, it's practically his duty to entertain people!

I'll stick to the battle and the thrill of the not knowing what will happen next. In battles, one move or item and change everything. In coordinating it's only making combos over and over again. Over all, I like battling better.

I love being both a Coordinator and a Trainer. I can't decide between the two. I love contests for the simple joys of showing off your Pokemon and the ribbons are beautiful as well. I love fusing moves together to come up with a new attack combo. I think that's very beautiful. I love gym battles, cause there isn't much involved other then just fighting. I love making my Pokemon as strong as they can possibly be. Plus, I love having them learn new moves. I totally love gym battles, as my Pokemon gets stronger I get stronger as well.

I can not express how much I enjoy being a Pokemon Trainer. I wake up early everyday and go out of my way to train my Pokemon to the best of their ability. I haven't been up against a Gym Leader before, all I know that their Pokemon are super strong and that they are superb Trainers. But not a moment goes by that I stop thinking about challenging the very first Gym Leader and win my first badge. Being a Pokemon Trainer isn't always about winning battles, I also love the adventure and making bonds between my Pokemon, that's something you can't do being in the lame contests or whatever they are.
