Pokemon: Social Secretary

Hi all. I'm the incumbent Social Secretary Jiei.

Did you know: Avalugg may be based on Project Habakkuk, a plan by the British army during World War II to build aircraft carriers out of wood pulp and ice. This motif works in beautiful harmoney with Bergmite's origin: mites. Mites exhibit phoresis, which is when an organism attaches itself to a host organism to move around. Pokémon's ability to combine similar phenomena from the macro and micro into a single coherent design is what makes it so special to me. This is without even talking about Avalugg and Bergmite's other design elements. Casseroya Lake was one of my favourite locations in Paldea, because I got to see Avalugg and Bergmite floating around together in groups.

Pokémon is my passion, and I hope to continue pursuing my role as Social Secretary. If you've enjoyed any of our events this year, I hope you can confidently entrust me with your vote, even if there might not be any other candidates.
