are ‘dangerous’ pokemon such as chandelure, banette and hydreigon volatile to their own trainers? for example i’ve been raising my chandelure (orion) and i’ve had many of my friends to tell me to be careful because of what its pokedex entries state.

Not at all, actually. Many of the pokédex entries only cover wild instances of each species—and even then, not all wild pokémon behave the way the pokédex describes. I won’t get into that because that would be another entry entirely, but when it comes to tamed pokémon, so long as you treat yours with respect and kindness, they’ll treat you the same. As such, the most responsible trainers can expect from their pokémon would be mischief, not anything dangerous or even deadly.

So don’t worry, anonymous. As long as you’ve treated your chandelure well, it will never intentionally hurt you.
