Iron Valiant

Being programmed to be a merciless warrior, it's no surprise when your Iron Valiant sometimes defies your orders and throws themselves into danger.

But the problem is that they've been dealing with some internal conflict lately, especially when they learned Gardevoir and Gallade are your aces.

They don't know it yet, since it's such a foreign emotion to them, but they've been feeling...extreme jealousy.

They're overanalyzing the psychic types' interactions with you, wondering what made them so special...and why they can't be like them.

Being in-tune with your other Pokémon's emotions, Gardevoir and Gallade take notice of this during a picnic and decide to speak to their future counterpart privately. But Iron Valiant quickly got aggressive and began threatening them with their bladed weapon.

You witnessed this and tried standing between them and your psychic companions--

Only for them to accidentally strike you, knocking you out instantly.

This horrified Gardevoir and enraged Gallade, who went to fight IV while she did her best to heal you with Wish.

Eventually the robot did see you were unconscious, freezing for a moment as a new emotion was registered in them: Guilt.

That distraction allowed Gallade to gain the upper hand and knock them out.

The next day, you were released from the hospital, having suffered only a minor concussion and some bruises.

Upon arriving home to your worried Pokémon, you immediately asked where Iron Valiant was. Gallade didn't wanna tell you, but Gardevoir showed you to the backyard...where they stood rigidly, completely shutdown. Apparently they let their battery run dry all night as some sort of punishment.

After recharging them (with some help from Pawmi's Spark), they awaken with renewed guilt upon seeing you, kneeling down in apology.

But you convinced them to stand back up, instead embracing them and expressing your forgiveness.

"I know why you were angry...you just wanted to be like Gallade and Gardevoir. I've raised them since they were Ralts, so we do have a close connection. But don't ever think that I'll ignore you, IV. You're just as important to me, too."

Mimikyuu

After getting into a fight with a murder of Murkrow, your sweet little ghost/fairy's disguise was a lot worse for wear.

They try fixing it themselves, but even though you gave them a sewing needle...it just wasn't coming out right. Not the way they wanted it.

So much was wrong with it. The neck was still crooked, the ears were misaligned-

You didn't know how stressed they were until you hear their cries coming from an old pillowcases they were temporarily using for cover, and wanted to help them.

Unfortunately, yours was akin to an extremely stubborn child who didn't wanna share. And they freaked out when you tried taking their costume away, leading to them slapping your hand.

But in doing so accidentally jabbed you with the needle.

You winced in pain, although Mimikyuu quickly realized what they had done and panicked, dropping the tool and slipping further into the pillowcase, leaving their costume out in the open.

After plastering a bandaid on yourself, you got to work fixing it.

Mimikyuu never protested or said anything, feeling guilty for hurting you.

However, after some time you did feel the small, trembling lump hidden in the pillowcase curl up against your side. You patted it gently, humming a small song to help them calm down.

Once their costume was repaired, you presented it to them with a warm smile, and they...initially hesitated to take it.

You realized why, and closed your eyes so you didn't look at their true form, only opening them after the costume was on.

Looking down, you see them holding your hand and nuzzling where you had the cut, tears in their eyes.

"It's okay, Mimi." You coo. "I know you didn't mean it. I'll be okay..thank you for trusting me."

Maushold

They didn't hurt you directly...although they did feel responsible for the situation that injured you.

It all started when their two children began chasing some Hoppips who flew off when the wind picked up, while their parents rested during a picnic.

However, you were very observant and quickly noticed the little mice have gone missing, going to search for them so their parents didn't freak out.

You eventually found them being tormented by a Persian, who was circling around them menacingly.

Without thinking about your own safety, you just ran towards them and shouted at the feline Pokémon to get away, scooping up Maushold's children into your arms.

And you turned your back just as Persian lunged, attacking you with Fury Swipes, claws ripping through your shirt and scratching your skin.

They stung like hell, but you refused to let it harm either of the mice.

Fortunately, it didn't get a chance to attack again, as a flurry of Bullet Seeds caused it to flee.

You smiled as the rest of Maushold came to the rescue, reuniting them with their children.

But you didn't tell them about the attack until you went to Nurse Miriam and explained the situation as she treated your injuries.

To make a long story short...the parents were mad at their children for endangering you, though you gathered them all into your arms and hugged them closely.

"Don't be upset with them, they chased after some Hoppip and didn't know any better." You gently told the parents. "I can take a few scratches from a mean Persian if it means you're all safe."

As Tandemaus, they knew you were very loving and protective over them...but the fact you'd risk your life not only for them, but their kiddos? They teared up a little.
