Sorry, my Pokémon wanted romance, so they dumped me

Dian knew without even thinking that she must have come out here to search for Togepi. But would there really be Togepi in the desert?

Even a Togepi with water on the brain wouldn't lay eggs and breed in a miserable place like the desert.

Besides, he'd always wanted to complain about the Mirazu Kingdom's policies. Was it really necessary to go outside to look for Togepi?

Why not just have the Togepi in Paradise lay eggs? Unless every last one of them was male and couldn't lay eggs, leaving the Royal Family no choice but to search for mates outside.

Otherwise, with a whole group of female Togepi, how hard could it be to get an egg?

If romance didn't work, couldn't they just resort to the last option?

But if they were all male Togepi, then perhaps there really was nothing they could do.

Of course, this was all Dian's imagination. He didn't actually know the situation, since it involved the Mirazu Kingdom's secrets. If even he knew all about it, the Mirazu Kingdom would probably be on the verge of collapse.

Still, Dian's speculation wasn't entirely unfounded. Male Togepi did outnumber females, and that was even one of the reasons the species was so rare.

More importantly, females generally evolved more easily than males, which meant they were stronger!

At least as far as Dian knew, almost all Togepi that had evolved into Togetic or Togekiss were female. That included Misty's Togepi and Dawn's Togekiss.

So getting a female Togepi or Togetic stronger than himself to willingly lay eggs was no easy feat for a male Togepi. Unless that female wanted to build a harem and become the "Wu Zetian" of Togepi.

Well... if Dian's theory was correct, Misty's Togetic probably had some lofty ambitions of her
