AITA for leaving my home?

So I (21M) come from a pretty well off family that's pretty important in the area, because of this I'm constantly expected to take over the "family business" so to speak by my coworkers and the local citizens, and be some kind of pillar for my community... I love the people here, some very deeply... and I do love the legacy I come from, but I don't want this. I want to be free and see all there is in this world we live in! I want to get out there and see for myself the full extent of what life has to offer me, friendship,hatred,love,pain,lust, I want to imbibe all these things because if I don't...or if I just stay chained down here ignoring the sweet siren call on the wind...how can I truly say I'm free?

This decision is going to hurt people, some much more than others. It'll be seen as a betrayal, abandonment, selfishness, and I'm positive vengeance will be a topic of discussion in some circles, but I'm not totally leaving everyone high and dry! I've already put in a recommendation with the higher ups for someone I know that has the passion and ability to protect the peace here, nobody is more deserving of the role than she is, and I know she'll look after everyone personally too...so with that in mind AITA?

AITA for not forgiving the guy who hurt my Pokémon years ago even though he’s a better person now?

Years ago I (17M currently) took on the Gym Challenge in my region and was doing pretty good so far up until I reached a certain gym leader. I had gotten cocky admittedly and had been boasting about my Houndoom being able to take down his entire team, but when I got there he defeated me with a single Pokémon and ended up putting her in serious condition. He said things to me that stuck with me even to this day and to make matter worse my brother (20M) called me weak and beat me up for losing to what he called “An easy win” so I decided to travel to different regions to collect badges in order to prove I was strong

Now years later after training and collecting badges I finally returned to my region looking for the gym leader, but when I met him he was a completely different person! He said he regretted doing what he did and that he was sorry, but that just made me more pissed. I can see that he truly regrets what he did in his past but I can’t bring myself to forgive him even if he has gotten better, so I ask AITA?

TL;DR Gym Leader hurt my Pokémon and after years of planning my revenge the guy has gotten better and is truly sorry, but I can’t forgive him.

"AITA for letting a group of Pokemon brutally take revenge?" Posted by [User Deleted]

Just yesterday, I (20 Male) just recently stopped a group of poachers from kidnapping and abusing a large family of Bug-type Pokemon. During this time of the year, it was the mating season - so certain members were weakened due to giving birth to their young. Unfortunately, certain members were Shiny Pokemon and exhibited unusual traits: physically or power-wise. I'm guessing it's one or more mutated strands of the Pokérus at play since I've seen similar results in my own Pokemon. Anyways, somehow, the poachers caught wind of the phenomenon and decided to move. But fortunately, I was in the area. With miraculous cooperation, I was able to defeat said group of poachers with minimal effort.

However, during the battle, they were purposely more destructive than usual in their attack commands and the Bug Family's home was destroyed. After they were restrained, the males of said family were still enraged - wanting revenge for what the poachers have done. Part of me wanted to stop them, but after considering how poachers tend to get off scot-free due to their "connections", and they generally don't feel remorse for their actions - only seeing rare and powerful Pokemon as a commodity, I reconsidered. The males had viciously mauled the poachers, and now part of me ALMOST feels bad for not stopping them. The decision still lingers in my mind.

AITA for allowing the males of the family to seek revenge? Should I have stopped them, even if it meant risking my own safety?
