#onipurin

Like, it matches Sango in terms of energy and noise and has a bit of a mocking streak too, so it can keep up with her banter and Onigohri's. But for a Pokemon that is all about screaming, they pointed out that when it's scared, its voice won't come out. Onipurin was seen tearing up at some point, too. And there was lots of focus on Onipurin's expressions during the battle, which made me think that it was kind of inspired by Sango's determination and guts and that seeing her and Onigohri try their best spurred it into action and made Onipurin want to keep fighting?

Onipurin clearly wanted to follow Sango at the end too (that shy looking towards her at the end because it didn't want to leave yet, and allowing itself to be caught). Sango said Onipurin was awesome too, so it's cool that Onipurin must have been touched by her words enough to want to stick by her side. And that Sango comes off as kind of inspirational and someone to get attached to, despite everything.
