During this yeah, when I obtained a copy of Pokemon Black (A Japanese copy), I started to think to myself,
as I wait for my copy to arrive, I might as well play my old games. So I did just that. Although I remembered
I lost my old copy of Pokemon Blue & Yellow, sold my second gen Pokemon games. All I had left was my copy of Pokemon Emerald, Platinum & Soul Silver. I said to myself I might as well try out Emerald to see if it works. Reason I say ‘works’ is because I used to hack it a lot with an Action Replay & I once dropped in in a sewer & then fished it out after a long six hours. Note although it did take a bit of water damage, it never broke down on me & this happened about 4 years ago when I got my copy of Diamond.
As I started a new game, everything was going peachy. No glitching, freezing, nope, nothing was wrong. I choose my Starter, played through the game normally. Although, when I got to Petalburg City, the meeting with Wally was odd… I helped him get the Ralts, but then a Ralts sprite appeared & this text appeared on the bottom of the screen.
“RALTS: Be careful!
Something bad is going to happen…
Save the injured!”
When I read the text, I was confused at the fat that a Ralts was talking & this wasn’t a scene in the game.
Though haven’t playing the game for so long, I was unsure on what to do. As the text faded, Wally asked me this.
“WALLY: Is everything okay?
You’ve been staring at
My RALTS for some time…”
A dialog box appeared with a “Yes” or “No” question. I kept thinking to myself why did this happen? Why was a Ralts talking to my character? & who is this injured? Is it a person, or Pokemon? Any who, I responded with a “Yes” & Wally said, “Okay…” Ralts then said. “Bye Frankie…” in a separated dialog box as they both left.
Then I was scared… The fact that a Ralts was talking to me & Wally wasn’t hearing this. And the scariest this was that the name I gave the character was “Frank”, but the Ralts immediately called me by my real name… I figured the game just made a mistake with my name. I checked my trainer card to make sure & it said “Frank”. I knew the game was making a mistake, so I ignored it & kept on with the game.
As I advanced through the game, I reached the Trick Master’s house. As I played through the first maze, I saw the text
on the scroll said “RALTS needs to talk to Frank…” I freaked here, because the text was supposed to say…
“TRICK MASTER is fabulous!”
But now I knew this game was becoming creepier as that Pokemon kept calling for me in such unusual ways… Either way, the door opened & I was allowed to enter. As I talked to the Trick Master, he gave me a Rare Candy & said to come back sometime. I tried to leave the way I gone in, but the door wouldn’t open & then I remembered the tunnel was the way out. So I go through the tunnel, but the music was different… It changed to the inside of Mt. Pyre… I found that odd. Because at first I didn’t know what that music was at all… Then I reached the end of the Tunnel & a Pokemon Cry was heard when I was about to leave. The cry was low pitched & somewhat slow, so I couldn’t make out what it was. As I figure the game was still glitching, I assumed nothing of it other then to just leave the tunnel.
As I made my way to Mauville City, right before I entered the city, an old man standing by NANAB Berry bush saw me & an exclamation point appeared above his head as if he wanted to challenge me. But I soon noticed he was just asking me this:
“OLD MAN: Hello lad.
Have you fought a person with a TAILLOW
Recently?”
A dialog box appeared & I answered no. The man said:
“OLD MAN: Oh… Because one young boy
came by & he looked like he was giving
his Taillow a hard time.
Poor thing… The trainer is pushing his
Pokemon to evolve so fast… I think I
heard the TAILLOW weeping a bit in fear.
Please. If you see a kid like him, talk some
sense into him for me…”
I realized that my game might be really glitched beyond what I thought. But then it came to mind what Ralts said to me about “Save the injured!” may have mean. Could that Taillow be who I have to save? I guess only time will tell me.
So I finally make it into Mauville City, then I see Wally in front of the Gym. I knew I had to battle him there, but was I going to speak to his Ralts again, was my main question. So I decided to train a bit before anything on the west route. As I was training on the route, I received a call from a kid Jerry. This is the text:
“JERRY: … It’s… JERRY…
…Sob… This kid challenged me to a battle…
…Sniff… He beat me with a SWELLOW &
said that I’m not worthy to be a trainer…
…Sob… And… He… Took away my…
WURMPLE…
After reading this portion of the call. I was just about ready to go looking for this jerk & kick his ass. But then I continued to read the call more.
“JERRY:… After he took my Pokemon away…
I went to follow him quietly… Then…
I saw him yelling at his SWELLOW, saying…
…SOB…
…Finish it!His SWELLOW shucked its head
no. What? Fine! You won’t do it, I will!…
Then he grabbed my WURMPLE &… &…
…Drowned it! WAAAH!!!”
I swear, after reading that call, I was freaked out to the point of stop playing, but I felt that would be dumb of me. Getting revenge for that kid’s loss would be more fitting for me as a gamer. So I decided to go back to Mauville City & fight Wally.
As I prepared for the battle, Wally sends out Ralts, but oddly enough, I don’t send out a Pokemon yet. I wondered if the game froze on me… Then it says:
RALTS used FUTURE SIGHT!
… I began to panic! I was thinking to myself why it was attacking me!? Then I began to understand. Maybe when Future Sight hits, something will give me a hint to this glitched game… I know it couldn’t have been hacked, I mean I bought on the first day it came out. It has to be glitched… I began to read the battle text.
Frank did nothing!
RALTS used DESTINY BOND!
I got scared at it using that particular attack. Then the moment came.
Future Sight then takes affect & then says Frank fainted! & right after the character faints, Ralts then faints along with me! As the screen quickly turns black, a dialog box appears on the screen and says.
Save the injured ones before it’s too
late!
Take vengeance for those innocent!
That kid had killed too many…
It’s time to face judgment!
IT’S TIME TO FACE JUDGMENT!
Then I wake up in a house. I see Wally & Ralts by my side as I was asleep on the bed! Ralts cry as Wally explains that Ralts is sorry. His uncle walks by & says to Wally that he should really control his Ralts or get rid of it. Wally began to plead & say:
“WALLY: Uncle! I’m sorry!
Don’t blame RALTS!
Frank, you know RALTS didn’t
mean to hurt you… Right…?”
A dialog box appeared once more with a “Yes” or “No” question. As I knew Ralts was just assisting me in a way, I honestly couldn’t be made. So I did the logical thing and agreed with Wally.
The uncle then walks off. Wally also begins to walk off apparently happy as Ralts cried out once more. Ralts then said:
“RALTS: Please! Will you help them?”
I knew by now that Ralts wants me to stop the kid. In another dialog box that appeared I said yes as Ralts walks off.
After a moment of wondering where I’m at, & then I realized I was taken to Vendanturf Town. Apparently I was in his uncle’s house. I was unsure, but I knew I had to continue. So I made my way back to Mauville City to finally take on the gym & go through the game. After finally beating the gym, I leave the gym to see a trainer sprite run by that looks like Red, but the red parts of the sprite’s clothing was replaced with a white color. I see the female rival trainer run after him then stop to & says:
“MAY: Frank! Please help me catch him!
She then hands me the Go-Goggles. I found it odd that I got the Go-Goggles without beating the fourth gym, but I went to chase him. As I go north to the route to the desert, I remembered I needed to go get the HM for ROCK SMASH to advance forward. So I head back to Mauville City & teach my Linoone ROCK SMASH. After I head up again, I then noticed that a breakable rock was already missing. I figured he must of removed it upon coming this way. Then I take a quick notice at the opening. I saw that there was a small red patch there. I didn’t care much for it since I was just thinking it as a glitched pixel. Until I went to the opening & stepped into the spot & heard the sound that you would usually hear when stepping in a puddle. I quickly figured out it was blood & saw bloody footprints as I walked upwards. I finally show up to the desert were the blood trail vanishes in the sand, but at the end of the trail, I see a item on the floor. Wondering if the person dropped it as he ran off, I go to pick it up. Though the item obtained music didn’t play, the dialog box said this:
“Obtained a SWELLOW”.
I thought the worst to myself. Thinking about the runner, the blood trail & the Swellow abandoned in the sand at the end of the trail just told me to check my party. I see the Swellow in the third slot of my party, and noticed that none of my Pokemon were jumping up & down as they normally would when you check your party. I click my Blaziken. Its picture shows a angry face with a dark sounding cry. Its animation shows its fist catching fire & the fire blowing out. I check my Linoone, and its cry was a lighter pitch. Animation shows it rubbing its eyes as if it was crying. I finally go to Swellow… What I saw was both heart breaking & cruel… The Swellow was on its back with a broken, nearly featherless left wing, with a purple mark on its white stomach (Might be a bruise from being hit) & a soulless white visible eye. Blood looked like it was pouring from it’s broken beak & side of the pitch white eye. Its Hp bar was zero & it looked like it just evolved…
This made me pissed beyond comprehension. I went searching the desert for the kid who killed his Swellow out of cold blood. I wondered what would happen when & if I met him in the game…
As I entered the route 113, I noticed that the kid who gives you a TM after beating him was being harassed by the same kid. I couldn’t move for some reason, so I had to wait for there conversation to finish.
”???: Look kid…
I want that TM you got.”
“TM Kid: Go buy your own.”
”???: Why?
You got one.
I want one.
I.
Want.
It.”
“TM Kid: Too. Bad.”
”???: Kid. Hand it over right now.
Or… Hehe…”
“TM Kid: Huh?:
A sprite of a Carvanha appears.
”???: Carvanha looks angry. Please it
by giving it your TM, before it mauls you.”
After hearing that statement I uncontrollably walked up to him and challenged him to a battle.
”???: What do you want punk?
Oh, it seems you found my worthless
Pokemon Frank.
Say… I know why you wanna fight…
You wanna help this punk.
Hehe… Why not.
But lets raise the stakes. If I win, I get
your strongest Pokemon. You win. I leave
you guys be. Fair?”
After that sentence, the battle commenced. I sent out my Blaziken & he sent out his Carvanha. Though the oddest thing was that Carvanha & Blaziken were the same level. I figured it would’ve been evolved. I went out through the battle normally & won that one on one fight. The kid right after that match had this text:
“… You showed me a lot just now.
See you around Frank.”
I couldn’t help but wonder why did he know my character’s name… I noticed it before, but I never thought why. I guess this glitched up game is weirder then I thought.
After passing through the game a little more I saw the Elite Four Steven from Ruby & Sapphire. In the usual spot you’d see him. Just when I talked to him, he would stare in one direction with this dialog:
“…”
I tried to talk to him again from different angles & he wouldn’t turn, just stay still. I was nervous because the music slowly died down when I talked to him the first time. I then tried to go down since he was just staring downward. As I went down I saw an item in the water. I didn’t notice it swimming here, so I went back into the & got the item.
“Obtained a SHARPEDO”
After getting the same text from the Swellow, I instantly knew what became of Sharpedo. Also I realized I never did anything with the Swellow or gotten other Pokemon other then a Trapinch & evolved it into a Flygon. When I check my Pokemon’s Sprites, Blaziken & Linoone now had tears as they did there animations. Swellow never changed… Poor thing… I though the Pokemon Center would help, but I guess not. Flygon was floating with tears dripping as it stayed still in place with a low toned cry… Now for Sharpedo’s analysis… Sharpedo taken a lot of abuse… Actually, it was still alive with 10 Hp left at level 42. Its cry was a heavy slow pitch & had no animation. Although the poor thing looked blind since it didn’t really show a visible eye… Had cuts, wounds and a stick was lodged in one side of its mouth… I couldn’t tell which one had more abuse… Swellow or Sharpedo.
After clicking off the party menu & start menu. Steven walks up to me and says:
“Hey there. I noticed the Pokemon…
Who could have done such a thing…?
That poor Pokemon left to die.
I should of done something,
but the look in its face petrified me.
I’m sorry…
Please…
Help it…
Thank you…
…”
I actually questioned why Steven did nothing, and also if he saw what happened… Maybe we just both were there late… After that chat, I went to the Pokemon Center quickly. I managed to actually help the Sharpedo. But it still had wounds, but his eye was now visible & the stick was removed.
The nurse then asked me:
“My goodness… This poor Sharpedo…
Oh bless you child… You helped save a
life here. Please continue to help Pokemon…”
Hearing that made me sound like a hero in some way… Although it hasn’t occurred to me what to do with Swellow & Sharpedo. As I was in the Center, I tried to put them in the PC. I figured Swellow wouldn’t be allowed in the PC, but why not Sharpedo… My other Pokemon could go in so I figured this wasn’t that bad… But the fact that Swellow is taking up space I remembered that maybe I need to bring it to Mt. Pyre… I figured it would be the best place to go…
As I was making my way through route 119, I realized I didn’t get challenge May to a battle. But when I reached the place you would fight her, I saw her standing by the water with a item in the water. I again knew what was to come if I talk to May. So I took a whack at it & tried to talk to her.
“…”
Again I got that response. I immediately went into the water & the theme for Mt. Pyre inside the mountain played. I clicked on the item, but May then said:
“MAY: Leave him there…
Please…”
I was astonished at what she said. So I left the and went to talk to her.
“MAY: It’s… Too late…
Marshtomp… He didn’t deserve what
fate he befallen… …Sob… That kid…
I’ll… I’ll… I’LL MAKE HIM PAY!!!”
May then got on her Bike & rode off. I was really getting annoyed while playing through the game now. I honestly hoped that May gets her revenge. But then a thought occurred to me. If I was to lose a fight to him… What would happen…? Would one of my Pokemon be killed… I best continue on playing.
As I made my way to the gym, a Kecleon was blocking the way. So I went to the next route to see Steven so I can battle the gym, but when I got there, all the trainers were facing different directions. Each person had “…” dialog box when talked to. I noticed they all were looking at bloody foot prints . I followed the trail to see Steven face to face with the kid. The kid still looked like the Fire Red Leaf Green Male sprite but had a blood stained white cloak on.
This is the dialog I overheard from them.
“STEVEN: Looks like I finally found you.
Are you ready to give up?”
”???: Give up? Not at all…
Are you ready to meet your end?
And after that chat, a battle started between Steven & the kid. For some reason I saw the battle from start to finish:
??? wants to battle!
??? sends out AZUMARILL!
Steven sends out Metang!
Azumarill went first, used Double-Edge & got a critical hit. But didn’t do much damage. When Metang attacked, it used Psychic & instantly beat Azumarill. After the match, the kid storms off running to the next route. My character walks up to Steven & Steven says:
“STEVEN: Hurry, we need to catch him!”
After that sentence, Steven then follows me around as we begin to look for the ??? kid.
When we enter the tall grass I’m immediately stopped for a battle with an Absol. Though the weird thing about this battle was that Absol actually talked!
When the battle apparently started, it didn’t say something like “A wild ABSOL appeared!”… It said, “You two! Follow me!” Then the dialog box said, “The ABSOL ran off!”
As the battle ended a Sprite of an Absol was seen running off. Steven now lead the way as I was following Steven. When we reached route 121, Steven spots a item on the floor. instead of saying anything, he picked it up & a dialog box came up and said:
“Obtained a AZUMARILL!”
Steven then says:
“STEVEN: Frank, the AZUMARILL He
used in battle is injured. Lets hurry to
a Center! The closest one is in Lilycove
City.”
I was really scared at the fact that he keeps killing Pokemon, but I can’t understand why… Is he looking for power or something?
As we continue to Lilycove, right at the bridge to route 122 & Mt. Pyre, Absol looks like it’s squaring off with that kid.
I then see the kid run towards Absol and I’m assuming that he kicked the Absol to the wall where it falls unconscious. My character runs to Absol’s aid whereas Steven goes to deal the kid. However the kid the runs pass by Steven & then he runs off to chase him.
I watch as the Absol appears to try and walk from the wall and falls. Then it said.
“ABSOL: Help… Me…
Help… Me… Frank…”
I was afraid at the fact that even the Absol was saying my character’s name… I walked over to it to talk & this dialog box appeared:
“Obtained an ABSOL”
I went to my Party to check my Pokemon. Blaziken, Linoone, & Flygon had the same animation. Swellow was is still dead (not a shocker, but I still wondered why blood was still dripping). Sharpedo now was back to normal sprite look, normal animation. It made a high pitch cry with a snaring look in its face after the animation was done. Now I check Absol. It was in a laying down position, shut eyes and a blood mark on its head. Poor thing either was hit in the head, or got it after being flung at the wall… I noticed it had a poison status & at ten hp. I was really nervous that the the music changed to the inside of Mt. Pyre, but it was at a lower pitch sound & the music was slower then normal… when I started walking, I knew I would hear the poison sound, but they were now the sounds of Absol’s cry. Then I began to run out the route to Lilycove City. As I ran the cry’s tone became deeper & deeper with nearly every 7 steps or so. When I got into to the Center to heal up. The Absol says:
“ABSOL: Thank you…”
The screen went black. During that moment, I saw the battery on my DS continue to flicker on & off red while the black screen was on. & yet the charger was attached to it. I think the flickering light told me I was too late.. Ten seconds later the nurse hands me back my Pokemon and says:
“Nurse: I’m, sorry… But… Your
ABSOL did not make it…”
I automatically checked my party & go to Absol’s stats. Most of its information was blank. It only had nature, gender & name: The name said Was ABSOL. The name actually said, “Was ABSOL” as if “Was” became part of its name. Gender had “Was” and the female symbol. Nature said “Was Brave”. Was indicated that Absol is now dead… When I left the stats screen, Absol had mail attached to her. I open it to see the letter was all white, with black letters:
Please, take me…
To Mt. Pyre…
Put me to rest…
Save all…
Thank You…
Frank…
I knew I had to make my way now to Mt. Pyre. Since it was like the Pokemon Tower in Gen one & the Lost Tower. Chills instantly slid down my back.
I finally reach Mt. Pyre, but I was unsure which way to go. As I went half way in the first floor. The screen turned white & Pokemon sprites appeared.
A Gardevoir appeared… Kinda… The sprite looked like a skeleton, or possibly a ghost of a Gardevoir. I was clueless to why it was appearing, till a dialog box opened.
“GARDEVOIR: I’m sorry to disturb you
kind person. But please… Listen to what
I must say. Also… Speak into the mic on
your friends DS please… A conversation
would be much easier for us…”
Now I was certain that I was going crazy… It’s a Game Boy Advance game! How can it possibly know I was using a DS… Let alone the fact that there is no way I could use it in Emerald.
“Well come on… Say something…”
I was freaking out now. I didn’t press anything for the dialog box to change… I decided to clear my throat & speak into the mic.
“Um, okay… What… Do you need to talk about? I-is it about the kid?”
“GARDEVOIR: Indeed… I figured you
may need to know some stuff about him…”
“Some stuff…? Like what?”
“GARDEVOIR: Well… Damion. The kid
you’re looking for wasn’t always this
bad… And… I used to be his Pokemon.”
Hmm… If Gardevoir was his Pokemon, then… Did he kill it? Wait… It said he was a good guy.
“Pardon me, but that’s hard to believe a bit.”
“GARDEVOIR: Huh? What is?
Me being his Pokemon?
Or him being good?”
“Him being kind. Because he’s abandoning & killing Pokemon left & right all across this glitched game. Um, did he kill you…?”
“GARDEVOIR: Ho, heavens no.
He didn’t kill me… My death was
an accident…
I honestly have no clue to why he
has been killing others…
But all those spirits show up here…
I… Sob… I really don’t know why
he’s doing this…
Pardon me, I need to go for a few…
Bye…”
“W-wait!”
I honestly had no clue to why Gardevoir was defending him… Although if he didn’t kill it, why is he resorting to killing others… I feel as the player I need to know more. So far all I know is that a person named Damion is haunting my game apparently… A Ralts, Gardevoir & a dead Absol is leading me through the game… This is interesting how crazy this game has been so far. I been playing for around 8 hours & yet haven’t turned the game off at any time. I figured I should save & give the game a rest, but the fact this game is
so unusual… I can’t help but want to see the game through by playing it all now…The next sprite I saw was a Phanpy.
Oddly enough the dialog said Gardevoir when it came up.
“GARDEVOIR: Poor thing. When Damion
got the egg, it died upon the egg
hatching.
I was alive at the time when we came
here to bury it.”
A sprite of a Aipom appeared next…
“GARDEVOIR: Died in battle…”
Apparently Damion is upset at the death of his Pokemon… But why take it out on others…? As I questioned myself, Gardevoir’s sprite appeared once again.
“GARDEVOIR: Then I died…”
“I’m guessing Damion is mad at his losses…”
“GARDEVOIR: Yes… However, there’s more
to my death then I mentioned…”
“Elaborate please…”
“GARDEVOIR: Well, as he went on traveling.
Sky Pillar caught his attention…
He made his way up to find that nothing
was there…
When we went to turn back. Rayquaza
appears out of nowhere.
Unsure of why, Damion went to challenge it.
I was his only Pokemon in the battle & when
I lost, I lost consciousness.
The Rayquaza… I heard it moan a low tone
as if it was sorry… Damion yelled at it…
He told it to get back. All I knew is that
I think Damion carried me out… When we
reached the center, the nurse told him that
due to how old I am, I shouldn’t be battling.
I was awake then and Damion agreed to
what the nurse told me. Back at Slateport
City, I was outside my Poke Ball. Every step
I took, I nearly collapsed till a few steps out
of the city, I fell to the floor… And…
Died…”
“I think I understand now. Although you died of old age. He probably blamed your death from the match with Rayquaza.”
“GARDEVOIR: Yes…
He begged for me to get up…
I couldn’t…
He blamed my death on Rayquaza…
Then he stated after burring me in
Mt. Pyre… He said I’ll make it pay…
From there on he started training…”
After saying that. Sprites then started fading in & out after about every ten seconds… Damion’s name appeared in each dialog box.”
“DAMION: LAPRAS…
Didn’t prove worthy after
five matches…
I removed its shell & let it rot in
the sun.
Used the shell as a boat on water.”
“DAMION: VULPIX…
Admitting, it proved
strong… It refused to evolve…
I jammed a Fire Stone down it’s
little, pretty, neck & watched
choke down its life…”
“DAMION: ARCANINE…
Fast. Strong. Brave.
Once it lost a match.
Weak. Useless. Dead.
Bashed its head into the wall
of the Mauville City Gym for
failing there.”
“DAMION: RHYDON…
You couldn’t beat a electric type.
I removed its horn & watched bleed…
I keep the horn as a blade now.”
“DAMION: BEEDRILL…
Humph… Felt bad really…
To avoid me from killing it…
It ran…
I cornered it. It stabbed itself to
be ridden of me…
Should have at least let me do it.”
“DAMION: KANGASKHAN…
Died as I took its child away…
I don’t know what was worse…
Drowning the child in front of it
while it was on the floor bleeding
from a stab wound from my blade,
or it bleeding to death.”
“DAMION: RAICHU…
Stole it from a kid..
It was weak…
Returned it to the kid chopped
up in a bag…”
“DAMION: NIDOKING & NIDOQUEEN…
My head hurt from seeing them
together on my team…
They where strong… Beat trainers
left & right. One day they chosen
not to battle. That night as they slept
I went up to the NIDOQUEEN…
Killed it.
When the NIDOKING woke up.
It found the other dead…
I told it, it was murdered by a trainer.
I lied to it to get its blood boiling…
Beat even more trainer’s Pokemon.
However… Someone saw me kill
the other one & ratted me out in
front of the NIDOKING. The minute
it heard, it lashed out one me & I was
on the floor.
The kid tried to calm it down.
After succeeding, I got up, killed it with
my blade.
Then the trainer next…
Close call on my end…
So close to having a strong partner too…”
“DAMION: ARBOK…
VICTREEBEL…
STARMIE…
LICKITUNG…
All these Pokemon…
Useless…
EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM!!!
After going through these stories… I felt swear I felt like I was seeing him in my head… Slaughtering all of them one by one… Till this story came up…
“DAMION: …SALAMENCE…
I can’t believe it…
this one Pokemon…
He was strong…
Very strong…
He reminded me of NIDOKING’S
Strength…
And GARDEVOIR’S Heart…
Even when he was about to lose…
He pulled off miracles…
Wins…
Left & right…
But one day…
He lost a match…
Outraged at this…
I was going to kill it…
I told it to close its eyes and rest…
I went to stab it…
But…
I felt as if something was holding
me back…
I…
I…
I couldn’t…
When it opened its eyes. I dropped the
blade in front of it… It looked at me…
I was scared… I thought it would kill me…
But then it grabbed the blade in its mouth
and handed it to me.
It bent its head down as if it was telling me
to finish it off…
I couldn’t believe it.
It was so loyal to me… it was willing to die…
I said I was sorry… I said I would never do
anything like this ever again…
So I went back to training it.
I threw away my blade as a sign of release…
I made a Partner…
But then…
This happened…
As I was battling a gang of trainers.
They said the winners get to losers Pokemon.
To teach them a lesson. Me and
SALAMENCE took them all out.
They were angered at this & restrained me…
I tried to break free from there grip…
It was no use…
They tried to take my SALAMENCE from me…
I yelled hurry! Please! RUN!!!
SALAMENCE then attack the trainers, but
didn’t expect a gang of Pokemon to
retaliate…
They beat us both…
I fell unconscious…
As I awoken… I found myself laying on the
floor right outside of Slateport City…
Where my GARDEVOIR died…
My SALAMENCE… It was dying…
The nurse came running with a policeman…
They said they spotted me here after being
attacked… The policeman went running up
the route to catch them…
Nurse took us to the Center…
I was at the counter when the nurse told
me there was no hope for SALAMENCE…
I couldn’t believe this…
It was happening again!
I couldn’t handle it…
I went on a search to find them…
On an unknown route…
Found them…
They had a Jirachi with them…”
The Salamence sprite was now replaced with a Jirachi sprite… But the way the sprite looked… It was… Dead…
“DAMION: They were beating it…
They yelled at it for wishes…
I was so mad…
I couldn’t handle it…
I was wishing I had my blade on
me to take them out…
Then…
It appeared on the floor!
With quick thinking I ran to the mob and
took each and everyone of them out!
Other then one…
He then yelled that he knew me &
wanted to be like myself.
So I yelled to him…
I WISH I NEVER WAS MYSELF!
When I stabbed him…
The Jirachi thought I made a wish…
And then…
I never became…
My new self…
I was back to my old self…
I had a thrust for power & killing…
Jirachi made a wish that was tainted…
It died…”
The text the goes back to Gardevoir from there… The sprite of Gardevoir reappears…
“GARDEVOIR: Frank… He did become
good again…
But…
…
I beg you…
Please!
Help him change!
Help him…
Become good again…”
“… I will… I promise you…”
“GARDEVOIR: Thank you…”
The screen warps me to the top of Mt.Pyre outside. I went to check my party… The Swellow was gone… The Absol. However stayed… The other Pokemon sprites in my party were back to normal… All except for Absol… There was a letter attached to it again…
It said.
…
Thank You…
Frank…
The sprite then took a new shape and color…
As the image changed, it stats reappeared… It was back the saying name, gender & nature. Although, nature now had “HATEFUL” near it. It’s level was set at 100. Its type was Dark & Ghost. It’s ability was Wonder Guard. Its moves were; GRUDGE, CURSE, DESTINY BOND & REVENGE… Its EXP Bar now had MOOD on it. It was at 0 to 3… I didn’t understand why it said three… Looks to me that the Absol was enraged… There was another letter attached to it…
It said.
Why am I
angry…
Too…
Much…
…
Sorry…
