Warning: This is a lengthy episode. If you’re here to see the cute moemons, you are in luck. Otherwise, get some snacks.
Sorry about the delay. I was having a mild breakdown and questioned how I should change my approach, so I changed it towards to the more focus on the moemons, which is the main premise of this hack. With Pokemon X/Y now out, it’s very likely progress will crawl to a slow halt, or slower halt. Something of that sort. In fact, this will be the last update until X/Y comes out and may be while before I add a new "Episode" (read: mostly finished with X/Y).
[spoiler=Episode 3: The First Level of Early Game Hell]
Now that Oak had, without breaking a sweat, drafted me into his sick and horrid project, it was clear than I would be facing an extremely uphill battle for the freedom of myself and all Moemon. Like every startup revolutionary, me and Clara knew we would need to play their game to win, and that mean acquiring allies and tools. But first, we needed a map!
That was easier than I expected. Daisy is a far cry from what Samuel and Luigi are. Maybe there are likeminded human beings who get it.
We made our return to Route 1, sinister shill and all. This time though, we had a mean of befriending potential allies.
Zhu Zhu was the first of many, a bit of a worrywart though. Good thing I cannot read Pokenese.
Karen, a rather weird Mankey, joined not long after. The duo we were became a five man band, but a rather weak one at that. There was no way we were going to be beating any Gym Leaders like this.
So we made like little sissies and manned up, even though the genders said otherwise.
For something with 95% accuracy, missing with Tackle was a rather common occurrence…
But the obnoxious grinding and bad luck was worth it! Now let’s find Luigi and kick his entitled ass!
Hello, you jerk. If anyone knows how to ruin the mood, you’re the go-to guy. And what’s wrong with some tourism?
You’re one to talk you hypocrite! So why are you here? Doing what young males do when nobody is around?
ROUND 2: BEGIN!
I hate Sand Attack. Oh. So. Much.
And there was much revenging and rejoicing!
Karen eventually fell, but not before crippling Charmander in all her determination and glory! Now comes the finish!
Victory was mine once more, and much spoils to indulge in as well! 4-2 score!
Says the one who used Sand Attack. And you’re just mad I plundered 144 Pokedollars off your fanny pack!
I beat you twice in a row! We earned our right to dawdle! Frankly, I shall dawdle our bums as a victory dance, and right in front of your face nonetheless! Dawdle dawdle dawdle! *shakes bum* WITNESS MY DAWDLING SKILLS!
He forgot to tell me to smell you later. Guess my dawdle dance was too much for him to handle to the point where he forgot his catch phrase in the process. Oh well, his loss! At least I am not the one going to suffer on the first two gyms. *dawdles in the open some more* I could get used to this!
Then I remembered I had two fainted little girls that needed tending to. Hope they aren’t afraid of doctors and such, which is where we were headed to. Now onwards to Pewter City!
Oh, look! It’s the human roadblock who roadblocked me to oblivion over a lack of coffee and got kicked in the gut in retribution! And look, he's trying not to gaze into my direction! Let's say hi!
You are in no position to give me advice, you obnoxious, blocking hobo! And are you blind as well! *shakes pokeballs* See this Ratatta and Mankey? I don’t need your late-on-arrival exposition, you!
Take note of the fact this in the only male Moemon in existence and bask in its rarity before it would be enslaved by this elderly hobo. Seriously, that Weedle would have been ruling Route 2 and Viridian Forest like it was nobody’s business!
I have no idea how one fits a television in a purse and still can walk around in spite of such an item hindering them.
But before we continued out revolution, we took time to enjoy cheap and horribly made edutainment on the T.V. for the sake of gawking.
It was an analogue T.V. It was destined to screw up! It was even made by Deke Inc, for Arceus' sake!
After a short-lived television break, I proceeded to the Viridian Forest in all of its infested glory.
A boy and several of his friends split up the gang in the search for venomous insects far away from civilization. There was just no way this could end well.
Pikachu has a 5% encounter rate and it was the first little moe girl I encountered! The only way it could have been luckier was if it was in the possession of a Light Ball. It was absolutely criminal to not let a thing so adorable and rare join La Resistance. No, that’s not a good name for us.
Team Plasma! That would make a good name! I doubt any group has taken the name anyway so it’s not like there is anything to tarnish.
Oh my, this one is going to cause so much trouble. Welcome to Team Plasma, Ikki! Now let’s have and adventure and survey the wildlife!
It then dawned on me that I forgot an essential item that would make this forest tolerable. And I was going to pay for it.
But one has to admit these little things are just adorable! Seriously, I just want to hug this thing- Oh wait, Karen is still suffering from poison, isn’t she?
… At least I was heading to the Center anyways.
At least I learned my lesson and stocked up. Yes, the broken analogue television is still there.
Before returning to that horrible maze of insects, toxins, and electric rodents, me and Ikki took some time out to bond through combat. This plucky moemon really pulled her weight rather quickly. It was likely no thanks to Pidgey being weak to electricity.
It turned out the forest was not only prone to venomous insects but bug-catching thugs as well. Quite the little gangsters we have!
Four on two. How cruel of me! *laughs*
Our little dominatrix fighter is now ready to dethrone the first Gym Leader and give Team Plasma some momentum!
But this game sure can! Now that the fun was over with, it was with the rest of this horrid forest.
NEXT TIME: Team Plasma or Team Cherra engage in battle with Brock! Oh, and more moes are met.
