Astral Harmony will become famous soon enough. Eventually. Maybe.

I kinda wonder how that would work.

If it was me, I'd be forsaking women for Pokemon and adventures just as much as I forsake women for gaming and anime as I do now (sorry ladies, but don't worry 'cause you're not missing out on much), and I probably wouldn't even think about women or relationships unless I seriously couldn't do Pokemon training or have adventures with Pokemon anymore.

Then I'd probably release all but two of my Pokemon (can you imagine trying to cope with a wife, some rugrats, and a bunch of attention-seeking Pokemon all at once? I couldn't do it) and settle down somewhere and me and the missus would reminisce about the good ol' days of when we were young and energetic trainers without a care in the world except for what we were encountering day in and day out instead of worrying about a distant and uncertain future.

I suppose on the other hand you could forget about relationships and families entirely and just retire with your Pokemon, but I have a feeling some of them would still have a great many years of battle ahead of them (I imagine Dragon types live for really damn long while Ghost types would live forever to name a couple of examples) and wouldn't be ready to retire even though your body is worn out and your journey is over.

All in all, I would say that it's not a bad life. Not a bad life at all.
