This conversation is a necessity. Nidoking has the right to choose how she identifies and whether or not others respect that choice is on them. Nidoqueen has every right to be upset and raise objection because she got into a committed relationship with a completely different person than she is has become.
I still think they will be able to work this out but they probably both need time to process everything.

Even if the nidoking has every right to choose whom (s)he wants to be, accusations (you forced me) aren't the way to make the other party feel good and willing about going with the new change that (s)he wants. So in a way, yeah, (s)he isn't handling the situation well. Being right doesn't necessarily mean you can be harsh about it without also being a bit of a butthole.

By how he's not handling the situation well and the way he's acting and acusing others of being the cause of his gender confusion (because everyone was mistaking him as a girl, even his own parents by naming him a girl name, but he's was the one trying to proof the opposite, that he was male), that psychic pokemon definitely putted a trigger inside his head. His behavior doesn't look normal

They have the right to choose their own identity... but who is to say they are making that choice themselves right now. Dont forget they got mindraped by a psychic who could very well have messed around with the identity and implanted certain ideas against nidokings will

I agree that you should have an identity and should be comfortable with who you are. But Nidoking is being WAY too aggressive towards a loving wife and a peaceful home. Their home is a dream with a loving family and Nidoking is alienating them. Even if Nidoking is correct and gets their way, now their family will be against this rude, aggressive new person.

Yea unfortunately this is gonna go south pretty badly. She didnt force anything on him, its what he has been this entire time. Deluding yourself into thinking your something your not is only going to cause you more harm as you try and make believe. If you cannot have the ability to appreciate yourself for who and what you are already.

This nidoking is being a major asshole. First with what happened with the Zoroark and now with their wife! I feel like those psychic pokemon really fucked with this pokemon's head or did something. But right now this is just pissing me off at how self centered they are being.

The irony of him saying his wife "forced him" to take the role of a male when HE HIMSELF INSISTED HE WAS A MALE FOR YEARS because he WANTED to be seen as male. He's turned into them, akin to the psycho fans. Once again shitting on others and focusing on himself. The mindfuckery only made it worse. I will forever side with Maggie over people that do this shit. Hell, he's forcing neutral pronouns on Alini, he reminds me so much of those parents that try to treat their kids Gender-neutral thinking that'll do anything rn. Yes, Alini can be whatever she wants when she's old enough to try discovering herself NATURALLY, but she clearly wants to be just a baby, and even if he treats her neutrally she very likely still will see herself as a girl later, since someone being trans is rarer than he thinks. He's destroying his own family rn. Fuck you TiNi/Pearl.

Also I saw someone mention something on e6 about chemistry and they brought up how the title card has Caustic in relation to psychics in the description. And how Zn, Al, and Mg react violently to caustic substances while Ti and Ni are resistant.
If that is the chemistry that's in work here, then I worry TiNi/Pearl here will come out unscathed after destroying (corroding) just about all his other relationships just from the butterfly effect of him talking shit about Psychics.

So a story about a pokemon who gets essentially mind raped and possibly brainwashed, then gradually spiral into a self destructive gender swap in which they are absolutely toxic to everyone they know and love is apparently a strawman of trans people?
I mean all i see is a story with a trans element, it is not a commentary on the trans lifestyle or w.e. but even then why do you think a trans person can't just be these characteristics unless you don't see them as equal? seems pretty toxic if that's what you see trans people as having the same flaws as what is essentially the rest of humanity.

The implications the story made when TiNi became a transwoman after being mindraped were also pretty eyebrow-raising, actually. But I thought that maybe I'm just seeing things that aren't there then.
Now we had two pages of TiNi being a total shithead towards his wife using inane arguments that are easily refuted.on the subject of being trans. He was already acting like a knob towards Zoroark on the same issue. And when I think, "why is this written this way?", it feels to me like a way to bash transpeople with a strawman. The comments are already full of people doing exactly that, and
"
Natural conclusion of make-believe ego based gender psuedo-politics. Nidoking is confused and hurting himself lol. Pretending to be something he is not won't make him happy. Just delusional. So it is in real life too.
then it easily jumps to people bashing RL transpeople.

It's not my obligation to show any person of any identity in a good light. If you don't think that a transperson can act like this, you are denying reality. One character is not reflective of an entire group as a whole.

Okay, I haven't read all the comments, but I feel a few things should be said.
Let me precede this with: I hate Pokèporn. I'm also a straight male.
That I'm even reading this comic past the "crap, they're pokèmon" point is a testimonial to Grimart's excellent writing.
Now, let's address the Trans issue. When I was a teenager, and discovering things like orgasms, I also experimented with various sexual activities. Boys and girls. With older sisters, even tried a little cross-dressing. Fairly early, I discovered what did, and didn't, work for me. (Although it took longer than I like to discover what a Furry is, let alone that there's a community. I just thought my thing for anthropomorphic females was weird and should be suppressed.)
So, I have read and enjoyed other works by Grimart, some seemed self-theraputic, others self-exploratory.
I have a friend who was a preacher, married, kids, before he realized that he was actually gay, which is why he was miserable. It happens.
Here, Grimart is giving us a (excellent) story of self-discovery, whether it is the result of a psychic mind-rape or lifelong questions of "Who am I?".
So, instead of spouting anti-trans bullshit, you are welcome to quit reading. Enough hate in the world without adding to it.
In spite of the pokèmon aspect, I am enjoying this and looking forward to where it goes.
