Head Canons (v3)

[Gardeon]

These are the things we RPers come up with in both quiet moments of thought and rambunctious chatter between multiple members. What you post here may be discussed and be labeled, and all headcanons written here will be linked to and categorized upon completion and discussion.

Please use this format when writing a new headcanon (a mod will come in and edit when it gets moved to a new category):General Idea: Specific Idea [NEW][blockquote]TEXT HERE[/blockquote]
An example of this may be found in the next post.

Pokemon: Machop Society [NEW]

Machop is a pokemon species heavily focused on combat and growing strong from ones own power, as such the young are raised to the point they can stand and fight and then left on their own to fend for themselves. This is the way the species weed out the weak and keep pokemon strong but gender lines have appeared.

Due to the pokemon being generally assumed male, there has become a habit of young females to form together in to groups which train with one and other as well as the other pokemon in order to grow strong together whereas males will strike out alone for the most part. This allows more of the pokemon to survive and considering males of the species are generally picked to be trained over them by trainers, offers females a group with which to often spend most of their lives.
