The Alolan sun beat down on you, Po Town devoid of rain for once. You were crouched on the pavement with a sponge in hand. Guzma had business with Kukui and had left golisopod in your care. You were no stranger to the long-standing bond between the bug type pokemon and your new boyfriend. You'd battled them many times before Guzma had suddenly asked you out.

Dating the leader of Team Skull was... a ride. He was still quick to anger, hard to talk about feelings with. But you loved him enough to try.

Golisopod made a happy clicking noise as you wet the sponge and scrubbed at his armored body. Your clothes were wet from its delighted splashing, and a sudsy soap puddle dripped from your bucket. But its endoskeleton was already looking shinier.

"Good boy," you praised, stroking the large pokemon. Golisopod snapped his pincers excitedly. As you reached for the bucket, heavy footsteps caught your attention.

"And what are you two doin'?" Guzma asked, crossing his arms. He was finally home.
