If these are rejected outfits I can't wait to see the actual one.

This, to me, really speaks to the human/pokemon mental distinction. The village existed, as a perfectly functional village, for a very long time, and never really changed drastically. They had the idea of a village, and stuck with that idea. Pokemon, even the ones with a lot of potential for civilisation, don't seem to pursue it, at all. The concept of developing new things might come up now and again, but it doesn't seem to have the same spread and adoption that humans do, and actually pursuing development as a full-time pursuit seems to be alien to them.
Is there a reason she can't show her skirt when it looks like a skirt anyway?
Yeah, but she might not consider "what if someone touches my skirt or I get injured".Skirts aren't usually made of still-warm leather. They also usually wont bleed when scraped.

Tights and an actual skirt then, just needs to be longer than what Pokémon characters usually wear
Those look like wonderful outfits for when/if she is outed as a pokemon to the general public, but I think when you have a bow tied to a piece of your head that humans do not possess you can't really call it a disguise that well.
Similarly the second one shows those off too well.
This is a sad moment for me, because those are wonderful outfits, and I can only be disappointed by how they are currently non-viable for even just a trying out clothes montage.
You could hide the green legs with thigh-highs, and why would you need to hide the skirt? She's trying to look human, not 'not a Ralts line'. These outfits are too cute to not use!
So the Brendan pants thing was foreshadowing all along!It's not like she'd be the first Pokemon trainer to wear two pairs of pants...
Or she could telekinetically force them to stay on, maybe?Putting foam in the shoes is a smart move to make them look filled, but her feet will still come straight out if she moves. She'd need boots for them to stay on.
Plus the skirt never goes in the laundry.Yeah, but she might not consider "what if someone touches my skirt or I get injured".
The bigger problem (since she doesn't realize they suspect something fairly truth-like) would be Brandon and May being perfectly aware that she went into the clothes shop not wearing a skirt, did not at any point buy a skirt, and left wearing a skirt.
Could be disguising the entire horn as a hair ornament? But even if someone sells Kirlia-horn-styled hair ornaments, I doubt they sell ones that are missing the actual horn and are just a clip that fits around it.Those look like wonderful outfits for when/if she is outed as a pokemon to the general public, but I think when you have a bow tied to a piece of your head that humans do not possess you can't really call it a disguise that well.
I mean, nobody even knows Kirlia are a thing that exists at the moment, so...
There's also the matter of trade secrets and not spreading the information efficiently, they do seem to have some genuine advancements in the form of the smith's techniques but that's kept to a series of individuals, better recordkeeping and better general education would be if not essential then a major help as well.
Is there a reason she can't show her skirt when it looks like a skirt anyway?
Because then she'll be wearing an outfit without skirt. Only the jacket and socks.

"Everyone has green hair and white skirts. It's making me miss the village."On the other hand, man it would be kind of weird seeing a lot of people dress just like you. Hah. Poor Astra.
Well, actually, it is, just not in that sense. Shame on Brendan for not knowing about a single slightly archaic Latin-derived word.
Fuck it. RULE OF CUTE.I know; I was so sad when I had to look at it from a 'would this actually work' perspective and came up negative.
Keep in mind that more than 80% of the history of anatomically modern humans took place before we figured out agriculture, and that humans in the western hemisphere were literally still in the stone age when Europeans arrived. The default state of humanity is near-absolute technological stagnation; you kind of need to discover innovation and have it catch on as a cultural concept before anything significant changes. It took us about 5% of our history to go from bronze to space flight.
