Magic of Friendship

The Magic of Friendship (Japanese:) is one of the sentient cosmic forces featured in Kimberly's Adventures.
==Overview==
The Magic of Friendship manifests in response to strong acts of friendship or platonic love between beings, such as between Humans, Ponies, or between Humans and Pokémon. Despite being an invisible force like energy or gravity, it appears to have a will of its own and is sentient as it is the one who chooses humans to be heroes and chooses their Elements.
The Magic of Friendship also appears to be the driving force behind the move Return and the ability Battle Bond. If a hero is having doubts about themselves, the Magic of Friendship will withhold their ability to transform until their confidence comes back up, and it will also withhold their ability to transform if the hero must be with a partner to transform and gets into a serious unresolved argument with said partner. It does not appreciate villains at all, but is willing to forgive villains that have sincerely changed their ways or ones that were forced to be evil against their will, sometimes even giving them the ability to become a Magical Warrior in their own right as a reward.

==Trivia==
*The Magic of Friendship also covers platonic love between beings (such as a Trainer and their Pokémon, opposite-sex platonic friends, a parent and child, familial love in general such as siblings, best friends, etc) though it doesn't cover romantic love between beings.
*In some circumstances, for somecreature's own safety, the MoF sometimes will withold a character's ability to transform even if they do not involve self-doubts or arguments.
*Similar to how the Light of Hope has a counterpart called the Darkness of Despair or better known as Chaos, the MoF has an exact polar opposite called the Magic of Apathy, which is what villains use and which cannot be destroyed just like the MoF, due to negative emotions such as hate, fear, apathy, anger, and sadness also having their place in well-being when appropriate. If a villain has a change of heart, however, they will stop using the MoA (at least as a power source - all living things, even the nicest people, are not perfect and all have a bit of the MoA and Chaos inside them) and start using the MoF.
*Heroes have the ability to hear Pokémon talk, whether they're chosen by someone for a reason, have powers from the start, or are directly chosen by the MoF.
*If someone's close friends or loved ones die before their natural lifespan is up or if such a thing happens because they are immortal and can't bear the pain of outliving them and losing them any longer, they can ask the Magic of Friendship to peacefully end their life (even if they are immortal) so they can be with their friends and loved ones in the afterlife. However, it will only grant such a request if ending their life is truly in their best interest - it won't just let someone commit suicide for any reason, for example.
