Well fuck it.. I thought Josh was a winner but now I'm gonna play smart and bet the other guy.
Asteroidrules
Send him to the Josh fight.

Josh hurts himself in his confusion

Least we know where he'll be in the next few days I guess

Is this one of the Josh's who will be fighting in 4 days?
cazaron
Josh using Encore would make Paulina use the same move though, not a wonder he got Friendzoned smh
Bojovnik84
Not enough PP for this move!
ssjb234
You don't use Encore on yourself; you use it on a different pokemon, and they use their last used move again. Learn your moves, Josh.
MarkOfTheCovenant
He still got a friend tho so he didn't totally lose out
BigFatJuicyMonkies
But encore effects the opponent, not the user.
Nintura1182
This is true. I am Josh. I can confirm
IdMessWithTexas
If she doesn’t get it, she’s not the one for you, Josh.
OmikronWeapon
there's more to it than "I see what you did there". attraction, mutual interests. And, not thinking you're a dweeb for trying it like this
ThanosTheGreat
She did the right thing.
AxelBeingCivil
I hope Josh finds someone nice who appreciates his nerdy side.
And Paulina too. Wish them both the best, really.

What kind of idiot puts a Charizard up against a Blastoise? This is some Ash Ketchum shit using lightning on rock types.
MasterChristopher
You for real, right now? Electric-type attacks damage Rock-type Pokemon normally. It's Ground-type that isn't damage by Electric attacks.
It just happens that Ground/Rock is a commonly paired dual-typing.
GCRust
He took his shot and missed. Now he can move on instead of being stuck in a emotionally damaging objectifying/lusting from afar.
A1ekazam
Haha you must be new here. Feelings don't just die. Now he can painfully watch from afar until someone else comes along.
Menzobarrenza
It is possible to kill the feelings without a replacement and without harming yourself. It's just not easy
I'm not over any of the women I've ever had feelings for. So idk how the hell you do that.
Feelings are funny things. I've loved (actually loved) a few women in my day and I carry a torch for each to this day including the one I'm-
-married to. The feelings aren't invalid simply because for one reason or another the situation didn't work. You just have to be honest w-
LooseSeall
Idk maybe try therapy? I still have fondness for the men I’ve loved but I’m definitely over them and no longer have the same feelings.
Therapy never helped me. I've just never enjoyed it. I feel like I. Paying someone to give a shit ya know?
nightbeaver
Josh is an idiot. Ain't no chance he's getting laid acting like that.
ojisama
Could have been looking for something more than getting laid. Now he knows, good for him.
Well...yeah, of course, that too.
LordLumpy
Would work on me. Maybe you're just boring.
That would work on you? I guess you would really have to be into that person for this to work...
Nah, just got to have a sense of humour. Mind, that does seem a rare thing these days. Point and proof...
I don't think I ever asked a girl out without it been at least a little humerus in content...but it's been 12 years since I met my wife and
I picked her up by saying, 'I wish I was a bird so my poo would be white. Can I come over and check yours?' Bad but not as bad has his...
Asked mine out with a video game joke while we were playing together. Basically married now. Different strokes for different folks eh.

LocalZoophile
Oof, I don't think that's a friend
Cheekymonkey82
Seriously though why do men do this? Are they really expecting it to work?
Maybe they are hoping someone has some humour, laughs, and goes yeah fuck it you seem fun.
Tbf I loooove goofy shit but if someone suddenly asked me out this way I’d immediately cringe. I’ve had too many dudes use weird or quirky
methods of asking me out without making any effort to know me that I idk I’m over it. I don’t have any context for their convos before now
but the quickest way into my pants/a relationship with me is just treating me like a person and getting to know me a bit. Not a pickup line.
Macewindow54
when you get shot down 90 times doing the normal thing you start saying fuck it.
omox
Mabe try with it different person?
50 people in you really start saying fuck it
lafemmenikita
Maybe try the pokemon jokes first without the loaded question. If she likes it, THEN you can ask her out
ALoveLikePi
Jesus. He should have given up when she didn't get it.
UndulatingTerrain
That would require social intelligence.
schizznatt
Hey, she caught on pretty quickly, especially if she’s not familiar with that sort of thing.

If a guy asked me out like this I'd say yes in a heartbeat. Her loss.

Why not? I would much rather date someone that responds well to this than someone who gets pissy over it being "not normal" or some crap
ordomalleus61337
Oh its case it's super lame.
ShamelessSeamus
You have no context to their current relationship. For all you know they're both huge Pokémon nerds.
welltechnicallyimnotarobot
Actually it's good to do that - it's better to be rejected being yourself than to be disingeneous and never get in a successful relationship
I don't believe this is 'being yourself' - this is 'act like a clown so you can pretend you didn't really mean it anyway when it fails'
to each their own. you're the one that sounds like a clown.
Sure, but can you tell me then exactly how 'I like you, would you go out with me some time' is MORE disingenuous than 'a wild Josh appears'?
SuperUpvote
Josh doesn't have enough burn heal. And he will never get his PP up.
