...Well, if there's anyone I'd be interested in seeing Gora go to, tbh, it'd be you because I know you're aces at this shit. Just so you're sure, further deets (this got long I'm really sorry):
Even with badges, Gora's hard to control. Dorumon only got him to chill out by scaring the piss out of him, by physically confronting him on his feet and screaming at him like a berserker despite getting pretty badly chomped three times and flicking blood everywhere. After that, Gora was totally obedient and docile, but only so far as Dorumon specifically ordered - he'd take any loophole to snarl and snap at things unless Doru was right there to tug his earfins or something.
The only other creature that can make him chill out so far is Urd, because she's goddamn terrifying and not even crazy dragons can resist her intense ancientbeast mom powers. He may also grudgingly follow the orders of other Pokemon that can out-brute-strength him. Dorumon was training him to playfight without really hurting the smaller Pokemon/human (read: himself), by stomping and biting and blasting the ground or nearby objects, but it's questionable whether Gora would put this to use on anyone he's not intensely fond of. Even with people he's fond of, he's always shown his affection through grumpy tsun playfighting and now that he's huge and has pointy bits, that's a problem on its own.
So, he's tough. But there's always the option of leaving him in the PC for ages, and Doru' did tell her that Gora was trouble, so.
AND YES I enjoyed that thread, even when it...caused me despair, as you might say. I hope I can make Walter a fun one to play with (he may find Carmen fascinating, specifically, for Reasons.)
