The votes have been tallied (with three votes, it didn’t take very long) and the starter has been chosen! Before I can go off and explore the world and all of its adorable moemon, it appeared I had to engage in being a courier for a day (or half of a day). However, rejoice, the adventure has just begun!
Now I present you all (an earlier than I expected) Episode 2!
[spoiler= Episode 2: Delivery Service with a Smile!]
So after what appeared to be over a day, I reached for the first Poke Ball was bestowed with the magnificently adorable Bulbasaur. Let’s assess the goods!
Her name is Clara and, like many of her kind, she wishes to one day evolve further and become a powerful Venusaur like her ancestors. Beneath that cute and gentle smile lies a stern personality with an iron will that makes even the pluckiest of people look like wimps in comparison. Now that’s covered, here comes the part in my plan where me and Clara make a speedy escape, laughing at Oak along the-
Damn! Another point goes to the Oaks this time! At 2-0, I should really even out this score.
A battle in a mad scientist’s laboratory! Just what I always dreamed of! Shame it wasn’t Oak because a victory usually results in the destruction of the base in other media!
OH MY ARCEUS, LOOK AT THAT BULB AND THOSE TRAILING HAIR THINGIES! SHE IS SO CUUUUUTE- Oh, I forgot we have a fanny pack-wearing jerkass to defeat!
After several minutes or what probably may have been the cutest battle I ever witnessed, Clara pulled through and came out on top! She is such a trooper!
And with victory came vast amounts of spoils from riches to EXP! It’s good to be a winner! Ahahaha! So how does it feel, Luigi? No matter what game you’re in, even if it is a hack, you’re always going to play second fiddle! With the score at 2-1, a comeback is in the works!
What a sore loser. He loses and he decides to beat up little cosplaying monster girls as a coping mechanism. What a dick! Anywaaays, now that scuffle was settled, me and Clara continued to set out towards the great unknown.
Setting out into Kanto Route 1, it wasn’t long before the two of us mingled with the native fauna. Alas, we lacked a means to befriend a potential aerial ally, but it was likely for the best.
Then the fun of exploration and interaction came to an abrupt, crashing halt upon an encounter with a person just as bad as Samuel Oak: a corporate shill! The fact it was out in a quiet, rural route made the appearance of this spokeswoman unexpected and I ended up hearing an earful from what was essentially a living billboard.
But I would be a total idiot to ignore free goodies, however!
And civilization had been reached at last! Okay, whatever given value of “civilization” that is, given this world runs on enslaving girls in balls and making them engage in combat. Clara and I then proceeded to hit up the city.
What a surprise, this world does care for the little things. Neither of us were eager to enter this place though, given it was a hospital and in it contained those creepy white-coated individuals. Ugh…
Ahead, we made a discovery of how bad this world was. A frail old man was laid down on the road with a woman supposedly just standing there and watching his agony like some sadist. Just how apathetic can these citizens get?! Alright, I’m giving that woman a piece of my mind! Let’s find out why she would just stand there-
Aaaaaaaaaaand there went my sympathy, vaporized into dust particles! Feeling tricked, I took my right foot and applied it to the man’s left side, swiftly and painfully. He totally deserved it! Okay, let’s visit the other parts of this town!
With my ability to read a guide on items instincts, I did take a detour to forage for discarded items before continuing further on my trek through the settlement! Free stuff is awesome, even if they are lodged in the corners between trees!
And Pokemon Walmart was found! Even though it was ideal to avoid the first of many soulless store chains, the temptation of cheap and convenience was just too much! TOO MUCH! Plus, shopping is fun!
Much to my dismay, I had to say “yes”! We could have discussed many, many things such as the deals, the new items, or even how fun it was to kick moody old men on the street! But no, she brings up that man!
This gave me an idea! Perhaps I will trash the box for a few minutes, say his grandson attacked and abused me, and then proceed to make haste knowing I threw a monkey wrench into his plans! There is no way this plan can backfire!
I didn’t bother taking a screenshot for the return trip; it was a waste of time. Nothing happened. Seriously, ledges can do that thing.
I hope you enjoy your ruined gift, Samuel. You won’t get to- wait, BUBBLE WRAP?! YOU PREPARED YOURSELF FOR SUCH AN EVENT?!
OH GOD! OH GOD NO! I WAS AN UNWITTING PAWN! I PLANNED TO SABOTAGE THE CONTENTS AND ENJOY YOUR ANGUISH AS KARMA TOOK PLACE, BUT YOU WERE A STEP AHEAD AND NOW YOU HAVE A NEW MEANS TO ENSLAVE ANOTHER GIRL! OAK, YOU MAGNIFICENT BASTARD! I NEVER READ YOUR BOOKS, BUT I CONTEMPLATE ON DOING SO IN THE FUTURE!
Wait, that last sentence made absolutely zero sense… 3-1 score, and feel certain even breaking even is looking to be an uphill battle.
It appeared Luigi was meant to be the courier, so his grandfather was going to receive the package intact either way. Well played, Oak! Well freaking played!
I was soon bestowed several tools for the task I was being dragged into, much to my chagrin.
It seems my worst fears were realized. Regardless of what I did, becoming Samuel Oak’s plaything was as inevitable as death itself! 4-1 score, and I am now worried where things are heading.
Next time: Cherry and Clara acquire like-minded allies, meet up with an old foe and eventually get lost in the woods, all while scoring imaginary points!
