special thanks to jello for the song file, and to bibs for being the best hypeman :)

and to the whole crew involved with the dogs in love series!!! it's been a very good re-introduction to the pokemon universe, as well as being the first official pokemon game playthrough i've ever seen :D

I want to believe.

I want to believe that Poochy and Jorge are the ones playing the music together here- letting Jolteon and Crap Gorps take the spotlight with their singing. That Tannenbaum is a whirlwind of motion, rewriting lyrics to suit their adventure and them- while Gacha is making sure that everything is above board with this performance, tying loops with copyright laws to make them free to perform.

I want to believe that Exit has found a true family through this adventure- even if he hasn't had much to say, the kid's been here through thick and thin, doling out food and medicine as it's needed. He deserves somewhere where he's welcomed, not told to leave- and I believe Stage Right will always make room for their friend.

I want to believe that Terrorism LLC was a good family for Jolteon, growing up. Symphony might be undead and thirsty, and Trefore might be a bit airheaded- and Weh may not want anything to do with them- but I think they'd come through, helping Umbreon and Espeon look out for the kid. And, y'know, helping him with his growing powers.

I want to believe that their presence helped.
That because Umbreon and Espeon showed unconditional love, Jolteon was able to show that love to everybody else- to help them out, too.
So that Jorge could find the strength to stand for himself- and let his true colors shine, to let his heart be known.
So that Poochy could live to accept- and maybe even be happy with- her mutations, and find that the world loved her too.
So that Gacha could find a way to balance on the edge of the knife- to always remember that she was not beholden to the shareholder, and that she always, ALWAYS had a conscience.
So that Tannenbaum could find his way back to the spotlight- and know that the world's love is nothing compared to the love of your friends.
So that Crap Gorps could prove the leagues wrong, and show that he was stronger than anything life threw at him- from evasion strats, to the point-blank ice of Articuno.

I want to believe that this comment helped you, too.

That even if I've only met you in passing- even in this brief moment- this comment lightened up your day. Gave you something to dream about.

I want to believe that this meeting between us, brief as it is, has changed us for the better.

I hope you have a good day.

I believe in you.

The internet doesn't put enough value into platonic friendships sometimes. These two are a perfect example of how wonderful they can be.

[Northestlight]

I love how this fandom is a joke that became INCREDIBLY serious.

[masterboa]

I was not expecting Terrorism, LLC to show up

[dubstepbee]

this feels like a proper goodbye for the series

[thomasboord]

Something i love about this and i think its unintentional but its so good. At the end of this animation Jolteon hugs gorps. At the start of dogs in love two its was said that Jolteon basically killed everyone he hugged due to his spikes. THANKS TO GORBS HE LEARNED HOW TO HUG!!!

[Mr.Rapint]

Now I can see why this made jello sorta emotional in the shower while singing wicked in crap gorps and joltieon voice

[yomeny]

With Poochie doing all the music, I can't help the mental image of her just off screen trying to get the rest of the team to shut up and let them have their duet.

[vickaroonii]

when i tell you i actually started crying when jolteon said "i love you man" you did SUCH A STELLAR JOB I AM ON THE FLOOR SOBBING

[Varis...]

my vocabulary has been permanently altered, this is no morbit.

[flashy_paint]

I love how they were so against using a ladyba in colosseum and then crap gorps became such an icon and main character that he stuck around for ALL of Pokémon XD and even finished the final boss himself

[fireball]

I would like to mention that in the first dogs in Love video they could have used a ledyba, But they decided not to because of how weak it was, but then we get crap gorps, Who did the final battle all on his own ! Which is just pure irony and it's beautiful!

[thatchillasian]

For some reason it has taken me until this video to realize that they gave all the Pokemon names, except the Eeveelutions.
And also Pikachu.




Anyway this was amazing

[Cody_Wolf]

OH MY GOD THAT STILL OF BABY JOLTEON (Eevee technically-) WITH HIS DADS WAS SO CUTE

[kierantheumbreon]

I GET THIS ON MY PAGE RIGHT AFTER WATCHING DOGS IN LOVE 3 LOL

[davialmeida]

Those are some weird dogs you got there, but they seem happy, and that's all that matters

[webbowser]

The cult of happiness and teeth approve this animation. For what could be happier than to see our young lord find such durable happiness.

[timezerohour]

The real bummer is that I don't think we will see the kind of madness and games that helped make "Dogs in love" again.

[rainylupin]

The drawing of Umbreon and Espeon snuggled with their baby is the CUTEST DAMN THING

[TrashMan_TM]

SOBBING AND CRYING AND THROWING UP AND GNASHING MY TEETH AGTASHDHAS I LOVE THIS
