You may be familiar with the concept of a spirit animal. It's some made up stuff to make people sound cool. Apparently, I have the honour of being a hippopotamus. Although, the test didn't seem very professional, I'm not sure if I trust those results...
Building on that, I thought it'd be interesting if I found my spirit Pokemon.
In this endeavor, the first Pokemon that came to mind was Charmander. Charmander was a childhood favourite of mine. However, if you surveyed the entire world, the majority of people would say charmander or charizard is the best Pokemon ever. And I'm not some conformist hipster, so this couldn't possibly be my spirit pokemon.
My next thought, my true favourite pokemon: Gengar. As much as I like the design of Gengar, and think he's the best looking Pokemon ever, I simply couldn't be him. He's a ghost, implying that he's dead. I, on the other hand, am very much alive. To add to that, he also has a frightening appearance that is sure to scare some people off, unlike me, the most handsomest man ever(no pics means it's true).
Now I must delve deeper into my interests. Well, I am a psychologer in training, so maybe I'm more suited to a psychic pokemon. Alakazam? No, I couldn't rock a mustache, plus spoons are gross. Hypno? No, I don't believe in magic. Slowpoke? No, I'm not a retard(sorry). Jynx? No, I'm not bla-- I mean, I'm not a woman.
Perhaps my love of electronics would make me an electric type pokemon. First Pokemon to come to mind was Jolteon. I'm not really a Jolteon fan though, I much prefer Vaporeon, Espeon and Umbreon. Then I thought of the concept of Eevee. Eevee essentially symbolizes any middle-classed white person living in North America. Your options are limitless, you can be anything you'd like. This brings me back to my psychic point, I chose to be psychic. Perhaps my spirit Pokemon is Espeon.I pondered this for a moment, then it hit me, cats symbolize women! Once again, I'm not a woman.
Thinking back on my spirit animal now, I'm a hippopotamus. This narrows my search significantly. Perhaps I'm a hippopotas. No... No, I can't live in a desert it goes against my nature. That leaves only one option. I never thought this could be true...
