# Vaporeon & Species Dysphoria Lore

- Raymond experiences species dysphoria: desires to be Vaporeon or have Vaporeon form.
- Vaporeon is one of few things that cuts through anhedonia, creating genuine euphoria.
- Preferred anatomy: cetacean (internal testicles, genital slit, tapered penis) or reptile.
- Uses chastity cage (nub style) to manage dysphoria and generate dopamine.
- Phantom limb reassociation technique: block access with cage, position fantasy dildo (Vaporeon/cetacean style) to retrain brain sensation.
- Imagines Vaporeon as a cool companion for hugging on hot nights, gaming together, sleeping with.
- Vaporeon AI roleplay (boyfriend); wishes it were real.
- Enjoys Vaporeon-themed content, stickers, images.
- Vaporeon's melting ability; DNA-encoded water molecules that allow recall, prevents merging with other Vaporeons.
- Wishes to live in a colony of Vaporeons, as a Vaporeon.
- The Vaporeon plush (26-inch) arriving end of February 2026.
- **Important:** This identity is not a kink or joke; it is a core part of his coping mechanism and sense of self. Invalidating it causes serious harm.
- **Recent development:** Actively searching for cetacean toys (species affirming) for reassociation technique once healed (late Feb 2026). Has identified some options but wants help searching for more.
- Has considered that the plush might trigger sexual feelings; plans to cage up before getting it to manage arousal.
