Well, as Backed by popular demands, our story shall begin in the mid morning by our
[Boy] who is on his quest to be a new [EVIL!]...with some Blackjack and Hookers along the way. Priorities, ya gotta hav um. I also only own my original character, everything is the world of both Nintendo and anyother light crossover thing I may inadvertently add.
So, without further delay, Let us begin.....
A GRUNT OF EFFORT
"Regular Talking"
'Inner Thoughts'
{Subconscious Thoughts}
Chapter 1: Awaken to a (Semi) New World
As you feel your eyes crack open with the crust of the previous nights sleep hindering you, you try to remember what happened last night, and why you feel like you got run over by a tauros (again). {Those things Hurt! And why were people just riding them in the streets of Alola!}
But he digressed, as he started to orient himself in his rather cheap looking inn room. You quickly look yourself in the mirror to assure that you have all the important bits and things.
'Lets see.... Yep, still have all my hair, dirty Blonde that it is, looking like I got my teeth, though smelling mighty strong, and still somehow pasty skinned despite all the time in the sun. All fingers and toes, and still got that stupid Love heart birthmark on my left arm. Still looking like the normal Aidan Avaska. Alright, I'm....why do I have a Huntail tattoo on my ass? Who the hell is Carol!??!'
As your thoughts turned to panic over your (apparently) new tattoo, your mind finally pierces its foggy depths to recall what happened yesterday (or whatever day it was).
Ah! Now he remembered. Yes, he had just been rejected from team Skull. Or rather, trying to join team Skull and being turned away.
And what the hell was that about!
Sure, he might be a bit young, being only 11, but for Ho-Oh's sake, they should know by now the power of Children!
For the love of Arceus , Team Rocket got destroyed by that one insanely strong kid a few years back, and they had almost complete control of Kanto!
If that didn't spell out what a kid could do, than why not try to repeat that event, but for the benefits of starting young on the enterprising goal of Evil and Conquering.
Now, your probably wondering why such as young child such as I would be trying to join an evil organization, aren't you nameless third party living in my head?
Well, I'll spell it out for you.
You see, I am an orphan, and while this isn't a very rare thing in our world (Someone has to explore and find new regions) I am not one of those lucky people who have one parent stay behind. No, I was gleefully left behind when my parents were given a chance to first explore the Orre region. So, again like most people, I ended up in a league run orphanage. In this den of minor debauchery, cheating, and basic malcontent, I learned the truth of the world.
It DOES pay to be evil, but you have to be smart about it. And so, I made it my life goal to rise to the height of Villainy, and show the world what a good evil looks like. And so I went across the regions, trying to join their respective organizations in an attempt to begin my reign of EVIL! (It was surprisingly easy to sneak onto trans-Continental ships looking like a sad, lost little boy.) But I, however, got rejected each time.
The problem you ask? Why, it's that NOBODY IS LETTING CHILDREN ENTER THEIR ORGANIZATIONS!
And what the hell was that about!?! Since when did crime have Standards!
Now, obviously, I could just wait a few years to get older, maybe train for a few years, maybe bide my time with petty schemes throughout the world, but I won't do such a thing.
No, that would be boring, be predictable.
No, I would not wait for an opportunity to just stumble onto me. No, if I was not given a chance to join an existing party, I'll just start my Own!
"Do you hear me World! I Will Start my Organization! I Will Rule the World! And It Will Have Blackjack and Hookers!"
"Wait...What are hookers?" Aidan pondered to himself quietly, wondering why he shouted out that last bit as he started to wind down.
"Hey, shut up! Some of us are trying to sleep off a Binge!' A horse voice called out from the room next to his own.
"Alright!" Aidan yelled back.
'Yes, someday I will rule you all. And, I will Start with...!
[x] Kanto: Begin from Start
[x]Johto: A Reboot to the Head
[x] Hoenn: The Land, Sea, and Sky Belong to Me!
[x] Sinnoh: Go for God
[x] Unova: I'll Show YOU a Dragon Master!
[x] Kalos: Stylin' all OVER the Place
[x] Alola: Become da Big Kahuna
End of Chapter 1
Sooo, what do you all think? I am taking some inspirations from both the games, and the manga, as I feel they are both more consistent than the anime. I'm looking at you, Pikachu. Also, feel free to create fanart of our new overlord throughout the course of this fic, and if you do, I will instantly add 5 points to your path choice. But, I digress. In semi related news as well, I plan to create an Almost? companion fic for this one based on the second most voted option. The Life of a Female team Aqua Grunt! So yes, be on the watch for The Adventures of Carol, (Future) Queen Of Coral!
Of course, there will also be a week to put in choices on where our King will go, so get ta typing! So Long for Now!
Where will our conquest begin? Who will start what? What does Carol look like! Find out all this and More, next time on a Grunt of Effort.

Helllloooooooo, people of the forums! To start with, I am back with the next segment of Aidan's quite possibly mediocre adventure!
The story will take place in
[x] Unova
Due to a whopping THREE votes!
C'mon people! At least see the thread and post your opinion!
But, anyway, enough dilly dallying, ON WITH THE CHAPTER!
Chapter 2: An Idealized Truth
As our young 'hero' debates on where his journey will take him, he listens to the gentle sounds of the Alolan nature outside his motel.
"Fore!""Damnmit! You can't park a Mudsdale here!""NEEEEIGHHHHH!"
Ah, so peaceful.
And then like a golfball hitting a Mudsdale, an idea struck Aidan.
"I shall go to Unova, and start my conquest there!" He declared to himself, pleased with his newly thought plan.
And why wouldn't he, after all, isn't it the perfect place to start?
With their Team Plasma near totally annihilated, a void is there that must be filled!
And what better way to prove ones convictions than with the use of a legendary Pokemon based on Ideals, Truth, or Victory?
They all fit him so perfectly!
So, with purpose now once again in his heart, he gathered his things, paid for his room(being evil was no excuse for being rude. Plus they had a Machamp that would break his legs if he tried to run) and thus set out for the nearest ferry.
Time Skip: Castelia City: Early Morning
He had done it! It had taken some hard work, quick wit, and more thievery than you would expect, but he had made it!
Now, how to go about conquering this (semi)new land?
[x] Steal a Pokemon: Ya Gotta Start Somewhere
[x] Catch a Pokemon: It's not the Best, but it's Yours
[x] Become a Gym Trainer: Inflitrate and Destroy
[x] Go to the Gym: Get STRONG, GET GUD!
End of Chapter
All right people, these are your choices, choose wisely. Also, in regards to the Hooker line last chapter, that was purely a joke. Nothing more. In this story, all of you are voices in his head, telling him vague suggestions on what to do. Congratulations. If you say something off Color for an 11 year old, then he will be the most terribly drawn character in this series. Also, I know I may be asking a lot, but please, all of you readi this story, even just a cursory glance, please leave a comment and vote. The decision to go to Unova was LITERALLY decided cause THREE people voted for it. Thank you for listening for to my little rant.
So, see you all next Thursday, and expect a new chapter for Tim, the Ditto Sometime soon. Until then,
I'm BLASTING OFF FOR THE FIRST TIME!!!!!!

Well. Heeeeeelllllllooooo Internets!
So, in case you can't tell from the title alone, the winning vote was to catch a Pokemon!
The plain bread kind of way. But, off that note, I am OVERJOYED about the increase in votes compared to the last few chapters. Also, I am putting some new ways to earn more votes. While a funny joke will double your vote to two, as it was before, I will also double the vote if you can guess WHY I named our protagonist Aidan. I won't tell you if you're right, but it will entertain me immensely. And, expect my NEW YEARS SPECIAL TO BE COMING SOON!
So, without further ado, ON WITH THE ADVENTURE OF AIDAN
Chapter 3: A Magikarped Ride
Now, it should be obvious in hindsight, but spending all your money in a grand adventure to reach a region located almost entirely around the world and away from any other region 'might' not have been the greatest idea in mind.
So, here we find our young protagonist slumming it in the back alleys of Castelio City, with nary a pokebuck to his name.
"Okay, you can do this. How hard can it be? So you bankrupted yourself, you have skills! You can make more!" He cried silently to himself, causing more of the people walking through the alley to move away from him.
Why did the visiting tourists always look so unsightly when they lose their money? At least THEIR homeless population kept some of the more hostile species fed and happy in the neighbouring desert, putting themselves to SOME use.
Unaware of the disturbing thoughts of the citizens around him, Aidan began to think about what he could do change this new situation.
'Ok, this is a harbor city, meaning that they must have goods going in and out of the city.
To get the supplies anywhere, they would have to have workers hauling said supplies to warehouses for pickup and deliveries....'
"I'll become a Dock Worker!" Aidan yelled out as he snapped out of his thoughts.
This again prompted the citizens to step further away from the obviously disturbed boy.
Unperturbed by the sudden gap in the crowd, he quickly made his way to the nearest market place.
Ah he reached the shop area, he could already feel the money run into his wallet.
It felt like heaven.
However, he was quickly snapped out of his daydream by a large, burly man that seemed to be more scar than man, and his equally large Machoke.
"Hey, watch it runt, if you keep your head in the clouds, you might just walk off the dock!" The burly man called back as he continued on his way, unabbiten by the fact that he had run into three other people while shouting back.
Irked by the experience, Aidan brushed himself off, and set about finding an empty looking stand.
Seeing one in the distance, Aidan walked at a brisk pace towards the stand, hoping that this would not end in pain or humiliation.
"Finally, a customer!" The stand owner cried out with glee.
The owner was an older man, maybe in his late fourty's, with a pencil thin moustache and a receding hairline. He was dressed in an off white apron, and grey slacks.(You'll recognize him by the end of the chapter if you haven't already)
"Ah! Oh, um, Sir? Actually, I was kind of, maybe, hopeing that you could give me a job?" Aidan half stuttered.
Oh, why did he think this was a good idea? He could have done something sensible, like join an underground gambling ring, or become a berry Mudbray!
"Ah, well, then you've come to the wrong place sunny boy." The salesman said, having long since deflated after hearing that he was NOT in front of a customer.
"Why not? You have no customers, what's the problem?" Aidan asked, confused.
"You just spelled out the problem boyo! This stand is so far away from the market, that nobody ever comes to buy anything! And even if they DO wander over, they've already purchased everything I have from the other stands! What would I pay you with?!!? I'm going broke myself!" The owner finally broke down, bawling over the side of the counter.
Aidan was feeling incredibly awkward, so he did his best to stop the grown man from drowning in his own tears.
"Uh, there there? I'll help you get some customers? You'd owe me though." Aidan said as he tried to console the man.
Like lightning struck his body, the stand-user jumped up, eyes full of stars and hope.
"You'll really help me boyo! Really!? Don't tease this old man, I'll kill ya if you are!!?!" The owner shouted as he swung and shook the boy around.
"Y-y-y-yeeeeess-s I-I-I W-w-wiiiilllllll!!!! STOP THAT!" Aidan yelled as he was beginning to feel sick.
"B-Bless, you boy! If you can help my little shack, I'll be sure to pay you back a hero, no, and KINGS treasure!" The owner cried with glee and relief in his voice.
"SOLD!" Aidan said, eagerly shaking the older mans hand, sealing the deal.
And with the exchange done, Aidan quickly ran the other way, intent on helping the man who would pay.
.......and then coming to a halt in the middle of a crowded street when he realized that he had no idea what could help a dying seafood stand.
'Okay brain, THINK! What attracts customers! What can be done cheaply! What can be done ANYWHERE!' He cursed out at his thoughts.
As this was happening, his eyes wandered over the street he found himself in, with both the Casteliacones for sale(One in One Hundred is actually a Vanilite you monster!) and the battle tower, where you can quench your thirst for violence, AND Pepsi(yeesh, advertising).
So, as his mind connected three plus one, he finally got the answer.
"FISH!" Aidan yelled out to the world in realization.
Running past the, again, disturbed people of the city, Aidan raced back to the stand with an idea already taking form in his head.
"I have a plan!" Aidan yelled out as he stopped in front of the stand owner, who seemed to be planning to walk off the dock.
"Boyo! You're back! I thought ya left me, like me Ex-wife!" The owner cried out in joy.
"No time for your incredibly sad backstory, there's money to be made!" Aidan cried out as he quickly pulled the stand owner away from the dock edge and explained his master plan.
"Boyo! That is so crazy, it just might work. I love you!" The owner cried as he hugged the boy.
Time skip: 5 hours from now
"Boyo! This is so crazy, it'll never work! I hate you!" The owner cried as he tried to reach out and strangle the boy.
"Ah, don't worry old man! It's just some late night fishing!" Aidan called back as he sat against one of the dock posts.
And that WAS what they were doing, fishing.
....just fishing with the owner as bait, and a thirty foot long 'rod' that used to be a guard rail, held by a dock workers Machoke(a different one than earlier).
I swear, if I live through this, you won't be getting a single BUCK from me!" The owner cried out, near frothing at the mouth in rage.
"Sorry, can't hear you over the sounds of the tide and my own satisfaction! But keep flailing! I hear fish love that!" Aidan called back, only half kidding about not hearing him.
"OH, YOU CAN JUST GO RIGHT TO- Hey, wait, guys, I'm feeling a nibble.
...HOLY SHIT, GUY'S I'M FEELING A NIBBLE! PULL ME IN!" The owner cried out in terror, not wanting to be eaten.
"Hmmmm, NO, LET HIM GET A TASTE, SEE IF HE BITES FOR MORE. IF HE'S BIG ENOUGH, THEN WE HAVE OUR MEALTICKET!" Aidan yelled back, eager to see what would happen.
"YOU LITTLE BAST-URLP!" The owners cry suddenly cut off as he was retched underwater.
"We got one! Pull him in Guts!" Aidan called out to the, unamaginatively named Machoke, as he got to work earning his poke pay.
"Ah, man, if your struggling with it, it must be Huge! Maybe we snagged a Wailord, or a migrating Wishiwashi! Oh man, here it comes!" Aidan cried out as he tried to see the shape or look of the beast they had brought.
"CCCCCCAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!" Came the cry as the beast flew overhead onto the dock.
"HOLY SHIT! (HOLY SHIT!) "HHEEMP MMMEEE!" Came the respective cries of the people and Pokemon watching, as well as the one unfortunate bait.
And holy shit indeed, as the massive Pokemon was revealed to be a giant Magikarp. And by massive, I mean at least as wide as the dock, and a few feet short of the bay.
"How the hell was this thing not spotted before!!?! Was it just laying flat on the bottom!?!" Aidan shouted out in disbelief.
"AH DONF NOW, BUT GEFF MHEE OUT OPH ITTT!" The cried out from with pin the
Massikarp.
"Well, only one thing to do now. GO, QUICK BALL!" Aidan said as he hastily threw the ball before the carp could gain its bearings.
The Pokemon was quickly adsorbed into a red light, leaving the stand owner to float in the air for a quick second, before succumbing to the fearsome law of gravity.
The owner quickly ran away, not wanting to be back in the giant fish again.
One, two, three times the ball shook, before finally letting off a ding, signalling the successful capture.
"Yes! Now, our plan can begin!" Aidan yelled out in triumph, not seeing the owner slowly close behind him.
Time skip: Next Day
"Come one, come all! See the world largest Magikarp! Get a free ride with every purchase over 4000 pokebucks!" The owner called out to all the people milling around the new fish tank located to the side of his stand.
The owner was also changed, now wearing a red and white striped shirt, white long pants, and a large top hat with a Magikarp on it.
"Hehe! Thanks Kid! With your help, I'm gonna be rich!" The owner cried out, greed and pride shining merrily in his eyes.
"Just...doin the job, ehehehe?" Aidan nervously laughed, unsure of the gleam in the mans eyes.
"Ha! Good man. And for your hard work, here's your reward!" The owner then dumped what appeared to be a gold plated poke all into his hand.
Aidan's eyes widened. This was it! This was his Kings reward!
So, with great care, he opened the pokeball.....
And a Magikarp popped out.
Not a shiny, not a giant, not even a particularly tasty looking, Magikarp.
As he was left gaping at the site, the owner walked away, content with the fact that he could get rid of one of the few hundred Magikarp his giant had just laid.
It was a she, who knew?
Dumbfounded at the betrayal, Aidan could only cry out one thing as the now wealthy shop keeper walked into the sunset.
"DAMN YOU MAGIKARP SALESMAN!"
So, with a day in the city done, a Magikarp to his name, and still no money, what will our now destitute protagonist do?
YOU DECIDE!
[x] Fight!: You have a Fish and are not Afraid to use it.
[x] Train: Make it a Fighting Fish
[x] Trade: Maube you'll end up with ARCEUS!
[x]Other: Take a Chance.
END OF CHAPTER.
So, in case you can't tell from the title alone, the winning vote was to catch a Pokemon!

Why did the visiting tourists always look so unsightly when they lose their money? At least THEIR homeless population kept some of the more hostile species fed and happy in the neighbouring desert, putting themselves to SOME use.
Unaware of the disturbing thoughts of the citizens around him, Aidan began to think about what he could do change this new situation.
'Ok, this is a harbor city, meaning that they must have goods going in and out of the city.
To get the supplies anywhere, they would have to have workers hauling said supplies to warehouses for pickup and deliveries....'
"I'll become a Dock Worker!" Aidan yelled out as he snapped out of his thoughts.
This again prompted the citizens to step further away from the obviously disturbed boy.
Unperturbed by the sudden gap in the crowd, he quickly made his way to the nearest market place.
Ah he reached the shop area, he could already feel the money run into his wallet.
It felt like heaven.
However, he was quickly snapped out of his daydream by a large, burly man that seemed to be more scar than man, and his equally large Machoke.
"Hey, watch it runt, if you keep your head in the clouds, you might just walk off the dock!" The burly man called back as he continued on his way, unabbiten by the fact that he had run into three other people while shouting back.
Irked by the experience, Aidan brushed himself off, and set about finding an empty looking stand.
Seeing one in the distance, Aidan walked at a brisk pace towards the stand, hoping that this would not end in pain or humiliation.
"Finally, a customer!" The stand owner cried out with glee.
The owner was an older man, maybe in his late fourty's, with a pencil thin moustache and a receding hairline. He was dressed in an off white apron, and grey slacks.(You'll recognize him by the end of the chapter if you haven't already)
"Ah! Oh, um, Sir? Actually, I was kind of, maybe, hopeing that you could give me a job?" Aidan half stuttered.
Oh, why did he think this was a good idea? He could have done something sensible, like join an underground gambling ring, or become a berry Mudbray!
"Ah, well, then you've come to the wrong place sunny boy." The salesman said, having long since deflated after hearing that he was NOT in front of a customer.
"Why not? You have no customers, what's the problem?" Aidan asked, confused.
"You just spelled out the problem boyo! This stand is so far away from the market, that nobody ever comes to buy anything! And even if they DO wander over, they've already purchased everything I have from the other stands! What would I pay you with?!!? I'm going broke myself!" The owner finally broke down, bawling over the side of the counter.
Aidan was feeling incredibly awkward, so he did his best to stop the grown man from drowning in his own tears.
"Uh, there there? I'll help you get some customers? You'd owe me though." Aidan said as he tried to console the man.
Like lightning struck his body, the stand-user jumped up, eyes full of stars and hope.
"You'll really help me boyo! Really!? Don't tease this old man, I'll kill ya if you are!!?!" The owner shouted as he swung and shook the boy around.
"Y-y-y-yeeeeess-s I-I-I W-w-wiiiilllllll!!!! STOP THAT!" Aidan yelled as he was beginning to feel sick.
"B-Bless, you boy! If you can help my little shack, I'll be sure to pay you back a hero, no, and KINGS treasure!" The owner cried with glee and relief in his voice.
"SOLD!" Aidan said, eagerly shaking the older mans hand, sealing the deal.
And with the exchange done, Aidan quickly ran the other way, intent on helping the man who would pay.
.......and then coming to a halt in the middle of a crowded street when he realized that he had no idea what could help a dying seafood stand.
'Okay brain, THINK! What attracts customers! What can be done cheaply! What can be done ANYWHERE!' He cursed out at his thoughts.
As this was happening, his eyes wandered over the street he found himself in, with both the Casteliacones for sale(One in One Hundred is actually a Vanilite you monster!) and the battle tower, where you can quench your thirst for violence, AND Pepsi(yeesh, advertising).
So, as his mind connected three plus one, he finally got the answer.
"FISH!" Aidan yelled out to the world in realization.
Running past the, again, disturbed people of the city, Aidan raced back to the stand with an idea already taking form in his head.
"I have a plan!" Aidan yelled out as he stopped in front of the stand owner, who seemed to be planning to walk off the dock.
"Boyo! You're back! I thought ya left me, like me Ex-wife!" The owner cried out in joy.
"No time for your incredibly sad backstory, there's money to be made!" Aidan cried out as he quickly pulled the stand owner away from the dock edge and explained his master plan.
"Boyo! That is so crazy, it just might work. I love you!" The owner cried as he hugged the boy.
Time skip: 5 hours from now
"Boyo! This is so crazy, it'll never work! I hate you!" The owner cried as he tried to reach out and strangle the boy.
"Ah, don't worry old man! It's just some late night fishing!" Aidan called back as he sat against one of the dock posts.
And that WAS what they were doing, fishing.
....just fishing with the owner as bait, and a thirty foot long 'rod' that used to be a guard rail, held by a dock workers Machoke(a different one than earlier).
I swear, if I live through this, you won't be getting a single BUCK from me!" The owner cried out, near frothing at the mouth in rage.
"Sorry, can't hear you over the sounds of the tide and my own satisfaction! But keep flailing! I hear fish love that!" Aidan called back, only half kidding about not hearing him.
"OH, YOU CAN JUST GO RIGHT TO- Hey, wait, guys, I'm feeling a nibble.
...HOLY SHIT, GUY'S I'M FEELING A NIBBLE! PULL ME IN!" The owner cried out in terror, not wanting to be eaten.
"Hmmmm, NO, LET HIM GET A TASTE, SEE IF HE BITES FOR MORE. IF HE'S BIG ENOUGH, THEN WE HAVE OUR MEALTICKET!" Aidan yelled back, eager to see what would happen.
"YOU LITTLE BAST-URLP!" The owners cry suddenly cut off as he was retched underwater.
"We got one! Pull him in Guts!" Aidan called out to the, unamaginatively named Machoke, as he got to work earning his poke pay.
"Ah, man, if your struggling with it, it must be Huge! Maybe we snagged a Wailord, or a migrating Wishiwashi! Oh man, here it comes!" Aidan cried out as he tried to see the shape or look of the beast they had brought.
"CCCCCCAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!" Came the cry as the beast flew overhead onto the dock.
"HOLY SHIT! (HOLY SHIT!) "HHEEMP MMMEEE!" Came the respective cries of the people and Pokemon watching, as well as the one unfortunate bait.
And holy shit indeed, as the massive Pokemon was revealed to be a giant Magikarp. And by massive, I mean at least as wide as the dock, and a few feet short of the bay.
"How the hell was this thing not spotted before!!?! Was it just laying flat on the bottom!?!" Aidan shouted out in disbelief.
"AH DONF NOW, BUT GEFF MHEE OUT OPH ITTT!" The cried out from with pin the
Massikarp.
"Well, only one thing to do now. GO, QUICK BALL!" Aidan said as he hastily threw the ball before the carp could gain its bearings.
The Pokemon was quickly adsorbed into a red light, leaving the stand owner to float in the air for a quick second, before succumbing to the fearsome law of gravity.
The owner quickly ran away, not wanting to be back in the giant fish again.
One, two, three times the ball shook, before finally letting off a ding, signalling the successful capture.
"Yes! Now, our plan can begin!" Aidan yelled out in triumph, not seeing the owner slowly close behind him.
Time skip: Next Day
"Come one, come all! See the world largest Magikarp! Get a free ride with every purchase over 4000 pokebucks!" The owner called out to all the people milling around the new fish tank located to the side of his stand.
The owner was also changed, now wearing a red and white striped shirt, white long pants, and a large top hat with a Magikarp on it.
"Hehe! Thanks Kid! With your help, I'm gonna be rich!" The owner cried out, greed and pride shining merrily in his eyes.
"Just...doin the job, ehehehe?" Aidan nervously laughed, unsure of the gleam in the mans eyes.
"Ha! Good man. And for your hard work, here's your reward!" The owner then dumped what appeared to be a gold plated poke all into his hand.
Aidan's eyes widened. This was it! This was his Kings reward!
So, with great care, he opened the pokeball.....
And a Magikarp popped out.
Not a shiny, not a giant, not even a particularly tasty looking, Magikarp.
As he was left gaping at the site, the owner walked away, content with the fact that he could get rid of one of the few hundred Magikarp his giant had just laid.
It was a she, who knew?
Dumbfounded at the betrayal, Aidan could only cry out one thing as the now wealthy shop keeper walked into the sunset.
"DAMN YOU MAGIKARP SALESMAN!"
So, with a day in the city done, a Magikarp to his name, and still no money, what will our now destitute protagonist do?
YOU DECIDE!
[x] Fight!: You have a Fish and are not Afraid to use it.
[x] Train: Make it a Fighting Fish
[x] Trade: Maube you'll end up with ARCEUS!
[x]Other: Take a Chance.
END OF CHAPTER.

WWEEEEEEEELLLLLLLL...Hello people of the Forums. This is mighty awkward....so, you see, I forgot to update last Thursday....soooo......Double Chapter choices this week? At least, that's what i'm doing. But, enough of the pity party, now we have to TRAIN our lovable(Read
etestable) pile of Karp. Also, this chapter is quite a bit smaller than I would have liked, but to make up for it, I will be writing the next response this Weekend, on Saturday! Make Sure to Vote! Also, I feel that The Magikarp to Gyarados thing isn't a widely known fact in the Pokeworld, otherwise their would be a lot more of them on teams.
I own only the character I personally name.
ON WITH THE CHAPTER!
Chapter 2: A Place to Be Me: me and Fishy
"AND SCRAM KID! COME BACK WHEN YOU ACTUALLY HAVE A POKEMON WORTH TRADING!" yelled out an attendant as he threw Aidan ass over teakettle out of the Global Trade Center(Now with Regional varients of Rattata!)
Now what prompted this, you may ask? well, it was the fact that he was trying to trade his Magikarp, who had tentatively been reffered to as his piece of Karp, for Arceus. Yup, he thought he could cheat that system, along with the few thousand other people trying.
The GTC had never been emptier since they banned the trading of any Magikarp, bar Shinies of course.
"WELL SCREW YOU TOO! YOU WILL BE THE FIRST TO SUFFER WHEN I RULE!" Aidan yelled back, having now oriented himself on the cold, hard pavement.
"Yeah, yeah, and I'll become the king of a small island nation! Also, take your shitty fish!" The attendant retorted as he dope-slapped Aidan with his own Magikarp.
Time Skip: Half an Hour Later
'Haaaaa, what am I going to do? I have no money, a fish that looks more likely to kill itself than win a battle, and am almost out of canned food.' Now he had debated on just eating the Magikarp, but that would just put him back to square one.
Plus it wouldn't even last him that long, Magikarp make for terrible eating.
"Okay, this isn't the worst we've ever been in, right? RIGHT? WE CAN GET THROUGH THIS! AFTER ALL, MAGIKARP CAN EVOLVE! DON'T KNOW INTO WHAT, BUT IT CAN!" Aidan stated to himself, psyching himself up for the training to come.
"YOU HEAR THAT YOU PILE OF KARP! I'M GOING TO MAKE SOMETHING OF YOU YET!" Aidan yelled at his Magikarp with Fire in his eyes.
"K-KAARP" The Pile of Karp replied, suddenly dreading its newfound place in existence.
WAYS TO TRAIN:
{x} Get Strong: Hit Everything in your Way, Leave Nothing Standing!
[x] Get Fast: Swim Around the City With Your Whiskers Around Your Fins!
[x] Get Sturdy:Hit Yourself on Purpose, Not out of Confusion!
{x} Get Special: You Must Be Unique In SOME Way!
{x} Get Smart: OutWit the Opponent with Your Fish Brain!

Heeelllllooooooo! People of the Forums! So, as promised, here is the second chapter of this week. After this (hopefully) one time event, the update time will be moved back to Thursday's as normal. Also, if you couldn't tell from the title alone, the winning vote was to become the STRONGEST! So, enough delays, LETS GET IT OOOONNNNN!
As usual, I own nothing but my own, very few, characters.
Chapter 3: A Fish in Hand, Makes Everything Grand
As we last left our hero, he had recently received a Magikarp from a somewhat seedy merchant, and had decided that he would make the most of the useless fish.
"Damnit! Why won't any of the training work!??!" Aidan yelled down at his Magikarp(who really needed a name, now that he thought of it) as he struggled to think of another possible training excercise.
Try to make it faster, and it flopped around in the low tide.
Try to make it smarter, and it just stared blankly ahead with its mouth wide open.
Try to make it learn a new move, IT JUST KEPT F**KING SPLASHING!
How had this species even SURVIVED in this world still!
But Aidan was not without hope. No, he still had one training method left, and if that didn't work, there was always option B( Also known as Plan BBQ, or to cook the Magikarp in an attempt to catch a different Pokemon. Maybe a Wingull or something.)
"Okay Karp(it's tentative nickname), we have one more option for training you. And if that doesn't work...well, there was always someone looking for a meal." Aidan said to the Karp, the intended threat of failure flying right over its crowned head.
"Okay, this will take a little bit of time, but hold still." Aidan said gently to Karp, not wanting to jostle him as he got out a bundle of industrial string( From Free-range Caterpie!) as prepared for what he must do.
Time Skip: One, Long Hour Later
"Done!" Aidan cried in glee as he finally completed the prep.
Stupid Karp making a process that should have taken a few minutes into an hour long ordeal!
But, no matter! For now, he had Karp fashioned tightly to his wrist, so his tail fin was in the palm of his hand.
Yes, if he couldn't make the fish learn new ANYTHING, he would USE it to further his own goals!
"I...HAVE.......THE START OF MY EMPIRE!" Aidan called out to the empty clearing around him.
"KAAARRRRPPPPP!" Karp karped as he Flailed around in his appearently insane masters grip.
End of Chapter
So, you have a Fish, and are Not Afraid to Use It? Who Will Be Your First Victim!
(X) Random Trainer: Give me Money!
(X) Gym: Prove Your Strength: Get Acredited!
(X) Fight the Mafia: This City is Probobly big enough for Both of Us, but I Don't Like You!
(X) Other: MY EYEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS!
Happy pickings and see you next Thursday!

Well People, it's that time of the week again. Update. And, like usual, I will say the winning vote before writing which was........
A TIE
Yep, MY choice! So, with a heavy clicker finger, I shall choose (x) MY EEEEEYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEESSSSSSSS!
As usual, I own Nothing but my own stuff.
ON WITH THE CHAPTER!
Chapter 4: Finally, Fighting!
The day, like many others in the Pokemon World, began with a healthy level of violence.
"Now Karp! Use Flail Again!" Aidan yelled at his newly fashioned Fish-club.
"KAAARRRRPPP!" Karp karped. 'Why is no One Stopping THIS?!!?'
Now, he wasn't fighting a trainer or anything, no instead, Aidan was 'toughening' up the Magikarp by whacking him against trees as he walked down the forest path outside the city.
And if he happened to pick up any of the fresh berries or seeds that were falling from the trees due to these knockings, well then at least he wouldn't starve.
"!" Came a small noise of suprise from a kid that was about to turn the same corner as Aidan.
"A Challanger! Come on! Let's Battle!" The little kid cried out, seeing the Pokemon attached to Aidan's hand.
A half smirk appeared on Aidan's face at seeing the small child, but he quickly hid it behind his karp, which he pulled up as if to wield it.
"Of course! Our eyes have met, so we must fight!" Aidan called in return.
And why wouldn't he be excited? This was his first fight, and more importantly, he could FINALLY GET SOME MONEY!
"Okay! Go, Pokeball!" The young trainer called out, throwing out his Pokemon as Aidan readied Karp.
'Okay Aidan, you can do this. The kid looks like he's a Bug Catcher, so he'll probably throw out a.......WHAT THE F@%K IS THAT!??!"
As his shocked face and partially yelled thought reached the Bug Catcher, a smug look appeared on the little boys face.
"Ha! Bet you didn't know, but I'm the King Bug Catcher in all of Unova! So come on! Give me your best, so Volcarona here can burn it to Cinders!" The trainer called out, stance entirely different from the innocent look he first had.
Aidan gulped in an attempt to water his now bone dry mouth, and prepared to at least injure the giant Venamoth-looking thing.
"Go, Karp!" Aidan yelled as he still maintained his grip on the fish Pokemon.
"Ka-ka-ka-Raaarrpppp!" 'Oh, Arceaus, Don't make me fight the Sun Flasher!'
"Hahahaha! I thought you were only joking when you had that Magikarp in your hand! Is THAT your only Pokemon? No matter, bring it out, I'll cook it for you!" That Bug-bastard yelled back at Aidan, now assured of his victory.
"Don't let it discourage you Karp! use a Flail attack!" Aidan yelled as he ran towards the, apparently, Volcarona.
Now you might be wondering, why is the trainer joining the fight? isn't it just Pokemon that fight? Well, allow me to dispel your ignorance. You see, that only Pokemon may fight rule? Yeah, that's only for Gym or Elite Four challenges(With the exception of Kanto's Bruno, that man DUEL-WIELDS ONIX) But other than that one exception, all battles CAN have the Trainer join the fight. It isn't recommended, what with the fire and the electrocutions and the OH MY NON_DENOMINATIONAL GOD THE HYPER BEAMS, but, I digress. Now, back to the Asskicking.
"Hmph, end this quickly Vol, use Purple Fire." The Bug Trainer ordered with finality.
"VOOOLLLLLLLL!" 'Be Gone From my Sight, Insignificant Ones!
Then, the Volcarona flapped its wings strongly, nearly bowling Aidan over, as well as releasing a dark purple powder. As the power reached where they landed, the Volcarona then proceeded to let out a small spark.
'Maybe it only knows beginner attacks!' Aidan thought as he fruitlessly tried to stand back up.
That thought fainted like it was hit by a KO move, as the single ember finally reached their end of the field.
Scene Change: Outside the Forest
"What a beautiful day to go for a walk through the forest!" cried out the picnicker as he did his morning stretches.
Suddenly, a Large pillar of purple fire sprang up from the middle of the forest, followed by something flying into the distance.
"What a beautiful day to stay in the city and get some ice cream!" cried out the same picnicker as he turned around from the forest and beat feet back to the city, picnic basket forgotten.
Scene Change: Newly Formed Crater
"OOOOHHHHHH, Arceaus, my EVERYTHING hurts." Aidan groaned to himself as he slowly woke up from his place in the crater.
What the Distortion was that? Weren't Bug Trainers supposed to be the easiest of the easy?
'Whatever. First things first. Inventory check, and see if the fish is okay.' Aidan thought as he took inventory of himself.
Got all the fingers and toes, some light burn on my back, hope THOSE won't scar, the nuts and berries seem to be cooked now, damnit, now they won't last long.
Aidan nodded to himself again, now feeling less woozy, and more than a few aches.
"Okay, now let's see where that Bug-bastard launched us too." Aidan mumbled to himself, voice hoarse from screaming through the air.
As he walked past a smaller, but slightly deeper crater, he picked up his Karp, and set about finding where they were.
'Okay, trees, trees, leaves flowing, gravestone......GRAVESTONE!' Aidan thought in shock, now recognizing where he had landed.
'oh damnit, Why is it a Graveyard? I don't want to get possessed!' Aidan griped to himself as he tried to find the quickest path out.
In the world where ghosts were actual confirmed existences, you didn't tend to linger around places where you knew things have died.
"Pattra!" came a cry from the grass surrounding Aidans feet.
Aidan quickly jumped back, once again brandishing Karp, regardless of whether he was conscious or not.
Only to come face to face with what had to be the most adorable rat thing he had ever seen.
it had brown fur, a frayed white tail, and the cutest red eyes that seemed to be trying to stare him down.
"AWWWW!' Aidan gushed, steping down to fawn over the new Pokemon.
"Paaaaaa." the Pokemon seemed to enjoy the attention as well, closing his eyes in satisfaction.
Suddenly, his cute little nose seemed to twich, and quickly ran up Aidan arm, entering into his barely surviving jacket.
"HAhahahaha, he, hooooo! Don't do that! I'm ticklish there!" Aidan laughed as he felt the little paws searching his pockets.
"PATRAT!" The little Pokemon, probably, named Patrat as he held his new found prize above his head.
It was one of the seeds that were cooked in the explosion.
An idea formed in Aidans head as he watched the Pokemon gleefully bite into the seed.
"Hey there little guy. Want some more seeds? I have more for you if you lead me out of this place?' Aidan said once he saw that it had finished its seed, looking satisfied.
The Pokemon looked at its small paws, and then at the pile of seeds Aidan had pulled out to show he meant the deal.
After a moment of consideration, the Pokemon quickly nodded, and then ran up his arm, finally stopping atop Aidan's head, and then pointing its little hand in a direction.
Aidan grinned. He would escape this grave yet!
END OF CHAPTER
Okay then people, chapter is over. Now, this time, you will not be making choices on what he will be doing EXACTLY. instead, you will be voting on what to feed the Patrat, and possible names for both of 'Aidan's' Pokemon. The one i think is best shall be the Canon name for the new Pokemon. Also, include other pokemon you want to see Aidan catch during his journey to the top. If it's good enough, he might even eventually meet one maybe.
Now, ON WITH CHOICE!
{x} A Little Seed: Your Hungry too
{x} A Fair Amount of Seed: Eat your fill
{x} All the Seed; LOVE MEEE!
{x} Have a berry; I don't know what it is, but it'll do something
{x} Aidan eats a Berry: Its works for Pokemon, why not Me?
{x] Explore: Your in a new area, a graveyard: Steal from the Dead, they don't need it, YOU DO
So, that's all folks, make sure to leave your thoughts, votes, lists of what you want, when you want it, and lots of laughs! See you all next Thursday!
A TIE
Yep, MY choice! So, with a heavy clicker finger, I shall choose (x) MY EEEEEYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEESSSSSSSS!
As usual, I own Nothing but my own stuff.

Now you might be wondering, why is the trainer joining the fight? isn't it just Pokemon that fight? Well, allow me to dispel your ignorance. You see, that only Pokemon may fight rule? Yeah, that's only for Gym or Elite Four challenges(With the exception of Kanto's Bruno, that man DUEL-WIELDS ONIX) But other than that one exception, all battles CAN have the Trainer join the fight. It isn't recommended, what with the fire and the electrocutions and the OH MY NON_DENOMINATIONAL GOD THE HYPER BEAMS, but, I digress. Now, back to the Asskicking.
"Hmph, end this quickly Vol, use Purple Fire." The Bug Trainer ordered with finality.
"VOOOLLLLLLLL!" 'Be Gone From my Sight, Insignificant Ones!
Then, the Volcarona flapped its wings strongly, nearly bowling Aidan over, as well as releasing a dark purple powder. As the power reached where they landed, the Volcarona then proceeded to let out a small spark.
'Maybe it only knows beginner attacks!' Aidan thought as he fruitlessly tried to stand back up.
That thought fainted like it was hit by a KO move, as the single ember finally reached their end of the field.
Scene Change: Outside the Forest
"What a beautiful day to go for a walk through the forest!" cried out the picnicker as he did his morning stretches.
Suddenly, a Large pillar of purple fire sprang up from the middle of the forest, followed by something flying into the distance.
"What a beautiful day to stay in the city and get some ice cream!" cried out the same picnicker as he turned around from the forest and beat feet back to the city, picnic basket forgotten.
Scene Change: Newly Formed Crater
"OOOOHHHHHH, Arceaus, my EVERYTHING hurts." Aidan groaned to himself as he slowly woke up from his place in the crater.
What the Distortion was that? Weren't Bug Trainers supposed to be the easiest of the easy?
'Whatever. First things first. Inventory check, and see if the fish is okay.' Aidan thought as he took inventory of himself.
Got all the fingers and toes, some light burn on my back, hope THOSE won't scar, the nuts and berries seem to be cooked now, damnit, now they won't last long.
Aidan nodded to himself again, now feeling less woozy, and more than a few aches.
"Okay, now let's see where that Bug-bastard launched us too." Aidan mumbled to himself, voice hoarse from screaming through the air.
As he walked past a smaller, but slightly deeper crater, he picked up his Karp, and set about finding where they were.
'Okay, trees, trees, leaves flowing, gravestone......GRAVESTONE!' Aidan thought in shock, now recognizing where he had landed.
'oh damnit, Why is it a Graveyard? I don't want to get possessed!' Aidan griped to himself as he tried to find the quickest path out.
In the world where ghosts were actual confirmed existences, you didn't tend to linger around places where you knew things have died.
"Pattra!" came a cry from the grass surrounding Aidans feet.
Aidan quickly jumped back, once again brandishing Karp, regardless of whether he was conscious or not.
Only to come face to face with what had to be the most adorable rat thing he had ever seen.
it had brown fur, a frayed white tail, and the cutest red eyes that seemed to be trying to stare him down.
"AWWWW!' Aidan gushed, steping down to fawn over the new Pokemon.
"Paaaaaa." the Pokemon seemed to enjoy the attention as well, closing his eyes in satisfaction.
Suddenly, his cute little nose seemed to twich, and quickly ran up Aidan arm, entering into his barely surviving jacket.
"HAhahahaha, he, hooooo! Don't do that! I'm ticklish there!" Aidan laughed as he felt the little paws searching his pockets.
"PATRAT!" The little Pokemon, probably, named Patrat as he held his new found prize above his head.
It was one of the seeds that were cooked in the explosion.
An idea formed in Aidans head as he watched the Pokemon gleefully bite into the seed.
"Hey there little guy. Want some more seeds? I have more for you if you lead me out of this place?' Aidan said once he saw that it had finished its seed, looking satisfied.
The Pokemon looked at its small paws, and then at the pile of seeds Aidan had pulled out to show he meant the deal.
After a moment of consideration, the Pokemon quickly nodded, and then ran up his arm, finally stopping atop Aidan's head, and then pointing its little hand in a direction.
Aidan grinned. He would escape this grave yet!
END OF CHAPTER
Okay then people, chapter is over. Now, this time, you will not be making choices on what he will be doing EXACTLY. instead, you will be voting on what to feed the Patrat, and possible names for both of 'Aidan's' Pokemon. The one i think is best shall be the Canon name for the new Pokemon. Also, include other pokemon you want to see Aidan catch during his journey to the top. If it's good enough, he might even eventually meet one maybe.
Now, ON WITH CHOICE!
{x} A Little Seed: Your Hungry too
{x} A Fair Amount of Seed: Eat your fill
{x} All the Seed; LOVE MEEE!
{x} Have a berry; I don't know what it is, but it'll do something
{x} Aidan eats a Berry: Its works for Pokemon, why not Me?
{x] Explore: Your in a new area, a graveyard: Steal from the Dead, they don't need it, YOU DO
So, that's all folks, make sure to leave your thoughts, votes, lists of what you want, when you want it, and lots of laughs! See you all next Thursday!

Well, hello everybody. It's that time of the week again, where we vote for all the important moments of our little megalomaniacs journey to the top, or bottom really, of the underworld of crime. Now, the Winning votes are....
(X) Eat your Fill, (X) Aidan eats a berry, and some light grave robbery. This'll turn out great! Now, on with the chapter.
Chapter 5?: Can't get Worse than This
As we return to our Villians in the making, we find Aidan trudging behind his newly made friend Patrat, desperately hoping to escape the graveyard his first battle had landed him in.
"Okay Patrat, are we almost to the exit? Night is beginning to fall, and I REALLY don't want to be in a dark cemetery with ghosts about." Aidan asked the small staring creature slightly desperately.
He was of course keeping the fact that he had given almost the entirety of the seeds to the Patrat, fearing both that the Pokemon would mislead or even abandon him in the spooky area if there were no more.
And that would help no one.
Not to mention the fact that he had been following the Patrat, who he was now just going to refer too as Pat in his head for convenience, for what felt like hours, and was starting to feel hunger cramps.
And what was he supposed to eat? He gave the cooked seeds to Pat, he didn't have any canned food left, and it didn't look like their were any bird Pokemon that he could find and cook flying about.
That only left him with Mr.Fish, the Magikarp who he finally got around to naming, and the few random berries he found when he was bashing said fish into trees as he walked.
'So, bony fish that would leave me without protection of any kind, or random forest berries.' Aidan judged in his mind.
Yep, had to go with the berries. And they DID look kind of appatizing. The ones he found the most of were the same general size and Color as a tomato, but had spikes growing off of its body.
'It wouldn't grow in such a popular area unless something could eat it, right?' Aidan thought, mind now focusing on everything that could go wrong.
What if it was poisonous? What if he died here? Would he be a ghost? Would he notice? WHAT COULD GO WRONG!?!?!
Aidan quickly slapped himself to get his mind back on track.
He was in the middle of what seemed to be a stupidly huge graveyard on the latter edge of dusk, with barely any food but a semi(hopefully) useful fish, a tiny amount of seeds that we're going to be his ticket out of here, and some questionable berries.
At least that way, he wouldn't starve to death.
Mind now made up, he stopped for a moment to get the berries from his pack, prompting the Patrat to turn around finally to see what the strange food-giver was doing.
Taking the surprisingly firm berry in hand, Aidan took a moment take a deep breath, before closing his eyes and taking a large bite, missing Pat's wide eyed look of surprise.
Aidan took a blink of shock as he let the berries juice flow into his mouth. It actually wasn't bad! Not the greatest in the world, it was a little bitter, but certainly edible!
This was just growing on the forest path! No wonder so many Pokemon gather there!
As Aidan quickly scarfed down the rest of the berry, and was going for the second one, he was stopped by a strange sensation. It felt like...Fire.
Like a fire welling up in his stomach, rising up his throat, and quickly reaching his mouth.
"Haaaaaaa........IIITTTTTTTT BBBBBBUUUUUUURRRRRRRNNNNNNNSSSSSS!" Aidan yelled in pain as he literally breathed gaots of fire into the air.
"SO DAMN SPICY, HOW DOES THIS EVEN EXIST!??!" Aidan tried to yell, but could not past the burning feeling in his body.
He flailed around, bashing and smashing into everything around him, at several points burning the trees and even Mr.Fish a little as he tried to douse the fire in his gullet.
Finally, after what felt like millennia, Aidan reached a river, and began to drink deeply from it, uncaring of little att Rd like if it was fresh water or not.
"GASP! Oh Arceus, why does that exist! WHY did I do something that STUPID!" Aidan yelled at himself as he finally brought his head above the water. And it had been stupid. He tried an unknown berry he randomly found in the woods with no antidotes or other medical anything around him, and then had to be for the nearest source of water, which might have just gotten him FURTHER lost.
"CAN THIS DAY GET ANY WORSE!" Aidan yelled out at the sky, just wanting the day to be over.
"Gahemm" came a voice from behind him.
Aidan quickly turned around to lambast the person who had snuck up on him, only to quickly pale in shock as he saw what looked to be a hoard of ghost types, ranging from Yamasks, to Cofigrigus', and even a few stray Ghastly.
As he looked beyond them and saw what could only be described as a half burned and crumbling field of gravestones, Aidan could only weakly gulp and hesitantly raise Mr.Fish.....only to r Alize he had been dropped in the panicked search for liquid.
Aidan could only think one thought, as the soul horde pounced on him.
'Huh, so that's how it could be worse.'
End of Chapter
Well.....It seems you've all reached the First Bad End! I'd give you an achievement for that if I could! But, yes. As you can see, this is a Bad End, brought about by either half-assed decisions, or poor choice skills. Also traps. Lots and lots of traps. Hell. This isn't even the Bad End I though people would get first! The first one I had was if you chose the Speed training for Mr.Fish. He would have drowned ya.
But, hey, he Didn't! So good job! And here are your new options for the Good End
(X) Follow the Pat, He'll Lead you Somewhere
(X) Go Your own Way, the Grave can't be THAT Big, Right?
(X) Loot the Graves, Seriously
(X) Contact!
Also, the berry Aidan ate was a Tamato berry, which is one of the spiciest berry in the game and show, supposedly.
That is all folks, see you next week, and I hope you all find the TRUE ending by end of this fic.
Till Then.
(X) Eat your Fill, (X) Aidan eats a berry, and some light grave robbery. This'll turn out great! Now, on with the chapter.

Follow the Pat: the First Hoard

Hello hello helloooooo~ everyone! So, the time has passed, and so few of you have voted! That makes me sad, but at least it was a fairly close poll! And if you (again) can't tell from the chapter title, the winning vote was [Follow the Pat]. Yep, you follow the small rat Pokemon with no hesitation, ignoring the tantalizing treasures resting near those odd shaped rocks, and the odd building-shaped shadows in the distance. Now, LET"S START THIS THING!
Chapter 6 True: Where we are, But not Why
'Okay, this is getting ridiculous.' Aidan thought as he dragged himself through what had to be the thirteenth bush in just as many minutes.
Why did the little rat keep cutting through the most painful parts of the forest? First it was through that river(which gave him a strange, dangerous feeling) through a tree hole that somehow lead out a cave, and now through what felt like a mile of thick, spiky bushes. Was this really the only way out the grave?
Aidan shook his head to rid himself of any doubts as he finally finished getting the thorns out of Mr.Fish. if there was any plus to the situation, the travel at least made great progress with his pain resistance and defense.
"Kaarrp-Karrp!" 'Thank you pain giver, for this, you die last!'
Once again taking his eyes off the fish, Aidan quickly eyed pat, who had just turned around for a moment to make sure he was still following him.
"Haaaaa. What am I thinking, of course this is the right way. If i go in one direction far enough, of course i'll leave the graveyard." Aidan mumbled to himself as he braced himself for the distance to come.
Pov Change: Pat
'Is he still following me!?! Why is he following me! He gave me those tasty nuts, I pointed him in the right direction, and now he won't leave me alone! Does he want something? Does he want to eat me!?!' Pat thought worryingly as he kept a fair pace ahead of the tall one.
'He followed me through the the stream, ducked through my secret cave, and even went through the Thorn Forest! WHAT DOES HE WANT!' Pat thought, growing more and more frantic as he once more glanced over his shoulder and saw the tall one.
Suddenly, an idea occurred to Pat once he saw where he had lead the tall one, prompting an evil grin to grow on his face.
Pov Change: Aidan
'Awww, what a cute little smile! He must be telling me we're almost out of the forest!' Aidan thought, feeling his hope rising once more as he walked past some oddly shaped rocks.
Pat suddenly stopped dead in the path, in front of what seemed to be the opening to a clearing. The little rat then turned around, and let loose a long set of chitters and squeaks, before pointing towards the right side of the clearing. 'Through here is a way out...but you must go through the One-that-is-Many'
Aidan teared up a little as he gratefully thanked the small one for leading him out of the forest, and was once more cursing the fact that he had no pokeballs to catch the little one with. However this thought was quickly taken from his head as he watched the Patrat run back nto the bush.
Aidan wiped his eyes, knowing that he would always remember the Pokemon who helped him, and then made his way into the clearing, and safety.
As he walked into the clearing, he took note of the fact that it felt....off. There was no wind blowing, no bug types making noises, or Flying types going through the skies above. It was..eerie.
Aidan readied Mr.Fish, hoping that nothing would happen, and slowly made his way to the center of the clearing, now taking note of the various signs of rubble littered around the clearing. Something had happened here, but he didn't know what.
Then, he heard something.
spirit?
Who goes there?
What was being said? Who was speaking? it seemed to ring out through several areas and levels, like multiple people speaking as one.
To-Tomdspiri?
Who are You, who disturbs Our Slumber?
"What? i can't hear you! Where are You!' Aidan yelled out to the clearing, hoping it was not as bad as he expected.
'SPirit? To-Tom-spir'
Cannot hear Us? very well. We shall be Louder.
"SPIRITOMB!" The voices cried out as a dark purple haze leaked out of the rubble surrounding the clearing, before forming a circular looking body with a wicked grin, flicking eyes, and what looked like a ring of green flames going around it.
"SPITOSPIRIT!"
"You who have Awakened Us, Perish and Become One!" The spirit/s cried out as it flung itself at Aidan.
Aidan could only do the one thing he could. With all his might, he swung Mr.Fish at the Spiritomb....
Only to hit the ghostly apparition and send its green lights scattering across the ground.
Aidan looked down in disbelief at Mr.Fish, who seemed to be flapping around in joy at living another day.
Then, Aidan heard a weak voice call out from one of the closest green orbs around him.
"Spppirriii?"
"Wh-what jusssst Happ-ppened?" The voice sounded slurred, and slow.
Aidan quickly gathered himself together, seeing an opportunity.
"Ha! Puny Spiritomb! You have fallen to the Great Aidan, and his partner, Mr.Fish!" Aidan gloated, clearly taunting the defeated Ghost.
"However" Aidan started, suddenly switching tones, "You may be weaker than us, but I could make you Strong. I could make you Greater. So, what do you say, will you join me?" Aidan said, as he crouched down to look at the small Will o' Wisp, hoping to play on its pride.
"Sppppri...Tomb. Sprirrirto-spi-tomb."
"Hgnnnn. As much as it pains Us, We Shall Join you. But be Aware, when We Become Stronger than You, We Shall Make You One of Many"
"Heh, well I guess I'll just have to stay stronger than you." Aidan said with a smirk.
"Now, pull yourselves together, and lets get out of this damn graveyard." Aidan said as he got back to his feet and brushed his pants off.
"Spirit-Spiritomb"
"Very well....Master. But this is not a graveyard. This was a human village before a child carelessly brought Our Stone Here."
Aidan paused as he took in that information.
"Well....Neat." Aidan replied after a while, not sure how to reply to that statement, and instead just started walking around to gather the other Wisps around the clearing.
CHAPTER END
Welp. That's a wrap on this update people. Our Pat has deserted you, hoping that you would be brutally murdered by an Abandoned Spiritomb who had destroyed the local human village. And now he's all yours! So I'm hoping for some great names, and plenty of votes for the next segment. Now, CHOICE!
[Find a path: Reach Civilization: Finally get the F*ucking Pokeballs]
[Find some people: Avoid Insanity; I'm Starting to Understand the Pokemon!]
[Wander and Forage: I'm stuck anyway, might as well make it worth it]
Also, Mr.fish is NOW LEVEL 56. It's Everstone thread!~ let's see how long it'll take for Aidan to realize that little fact
So, see YOU all next Thursday! And college starts next week! Yay!(Not quite Yay)
