Glimmora.

0:00What if I told you the most beautiful part of this Pokémon and the most dangerous part of it are not two different things?

0:03They're the exact same thing.

0:06This is Glimmora.

0:08A creature shaped like a flower, with glittering crystal petals that look like scattered jewels.

0:11It is genuinely stunning.

0:14The kind of thing you'd want to reach out and touch.

0:17But here's what those gorgeous petals actually are.

0:20Every single one of them is made of crystallized poison.

0:23The beauty isn't covering up the poison.

0:25The beauty is the poison.

0:28Same crystal.

0:31You cannot have one without the other.

0:34And here's how Glimmora lives.

0:37Most of the time, it latches onto a wall, folds its petals shut, and disguises itself as a plain, ordinary plant.

0:39It hides the whole glittering thing.

0:42It only opens up, only lets those petals show, when something threatens it.

0:45Some of you have spent your whole life as a closed Glimmora.

0:48Somewhere along the way, you got told that the sharpest part of you was the problem.

0:51Too intense.

0:53Too much.

0:56Too sharp.

0:59Toxic, even.

1:02So you learned to fold it shut, latch yourself to the wall, and pass as something plain and more ordinary, so nobody would get the wrong idea about you.

1:05But that sharp, crystalline, intense part of you was never separate from your beauty.

1:08It is your beauty.

1:10The exact thing you were taught to be ashamed of is the same thing that makes you rare.

1:13And it only ever came out when you were threatened, which means it was never you being dangerous.

1:16It was you protecting yourself.

1:19You don't have to keep passing as an ordinary plant.

1:22The thing you were hiding was the most beautiful thing about you the whole time.

1:24Have you ever hidden the sharpest part of yourself because someone called it too much?
