An Electric Tail (Pikachu Quest)

Reader mode
[X] Scared. More humans coming for you means more fights, and sooner or later you risk someone showing up who isn't stupid. Not a good thought.
[X] A war of sabotage. Don't give them a chance. They can't catch you if their Pokeballs fail, their gadgets go missing, their clothes char and their supplies get spoiled. Give them hell.
[X] Beedrills and Butterfrees. With so few trainers able to capture the many Weedles and Caterpies of your home, their adult forms are swarming in greater and greater numbers. Soon they will grow beyond the Forest's ability to support them - and respond with a great Migration that will take them through Human lands at potentially devastating cost.
 
[X] Scared. More humans coming for you means more fights, and sooner or later you risk someone showing up who isn't stupid. Not a good thought.
[X] A wild mouse chase. Make them work for it. Lead them around the Forest by the nose, bedevil and beleaguer them at every step, until they turn around in frustration and give up.
[X] Silk-Choked Streets. With the threat of financial loss and humiliation on the table should they cross paths with you, trainers are sticking more and more to the most well-trod routes through the forest. But this has given silk-spinning Bug-types the opportunity to thrive elsewhere, and many paths through the Forest are now all but impassable.
 
[x] Proud. If your mischief has pushed them to the point of bringing people in just to target you, you're clearly doing something right. Do more of it.

[X] A head-on offensive. Let them come. You'll meet them - not with "fair" fights, but with an arsenal of tricks, traps and taunts to send them scurrying away with their heads hung low.

Being scared does not mean you stop fighting it makes it more important to fight! Just means you have to bite/tackle/electro-zap the people who make you scared! Best to make them go away directly, than to rely on them giving up by indirect means.

No idea about the consequences/changes to the forest, so leaving that off now. If I think of something later I'll edit it in.

Scared is interesting to me, because as people have suggested, it adds an interesting note of vulnerability to Trixie's character. The fact that we will respond to this by doubling down even harder is just funny.

Sabotage seems to fit very well with our tactics thus far, and our general approach as a trickster, especially if we are facing larger numbers.

Beedrills and Butterfrees are appealing to me, because I love the idea of us causing a legitimate natural disaster. Also BEES

Here, I fixed it for you.

What's the point of being a horrible zap monster if we don't double down on it as much as possible?

Also, causing an ecological catastrophe might entice someone who actually knows what they're doing to come after us. A trainer worthy of catching us, rather than the schmucks that normally go through the forest.

That, or we'll get caught by this generation's Twelve Year Old Of Destiny, which is honestly just as good.

    I think that's because of how I accidentally broke the vote, and had to backdate the start time to before Chapter 3 was posted to fix it. So that's the spoiler from the start of Ch 3 saying what the winning vote of Ch 2 was.

    Anyway, yeah, looks like Scared/Sabotage/Silk it is!
     
    I just hope in the future Pickachu will learn sharp stick throw. I want her to do a mystery dungeon reference that no one would never know and just be plain afraid that she knows how to sharpen sticks and throw them at her foes.
