What if the success went to Leon's head? He let the popularity of becoming the champion consume him, and he became someone so different. The public eye didn't seem to know, or didn't seem to care, about the Galar champion's descent. Hop, despite what he did, he saw Leon as a role model. His perception was so twisted, he could be beaten to a pulp by Leon and he'd still defend him. Leon isn't the only monster hiding in the system, though. His rival has a secret to hide himself. TWs: Abuse in multiple ways, trauma flashbacks, previous sexual assault, transphobia CWs: OOC, transphobic, and abusive portrayal of Leon and Raihan A lot of these things(like the assault and transphobia) come later, but if I didn't put the warnings here now I'd forget to do it ever.
