Pokémon CreepyPasta
To start off a creepypasta is a creepy story that is spread through the interwebs and over the past few months there have been a lot created about Pokémon. And in case you haven't noticed yet there have been a lot of creepypasta floating around the web lately about Pokemon R/B/G/Y and G/S/C and also the others but mostly the first two generations so i thought what better place to discuss and share them than here?
I would also like to state if you are of a nervous disposition or dislike being scared or afraid i would highly recommend you not to read on. thanks.
Hypno's Lullaby

Come little children, come with me

Safe and happy, you will be

Away from you're homes, now let us run

With Hypno, you'll have so much fun


Oh, little children, please don't cry

Hypno wouldn't hurt a fly

Be free, be free, be free, to play

Come down in my cave with me to stay


Oh little children, please don't squirm

Those ropes, I know, will hold you firm

Hypno tells you this is true

But sadly, Hypno lied to you


Oh little children, you musn't leave

Your families for you will grieve

Their minds will unravel at the seams

Allowing me to haunt their dreams


But surely, all of you must know

That it is time for you to go

Oh little children, you weren't clever

Now you shall stay with me forever

Parasect

http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/archive/8/80/20090819184936!047Parasect.png
[css-div="width: 415px; height: 200px; overflow: auto;"]
Parasect is controlled by the Mushroom on it's back (says so in the Pokedex entry). In fact, Parasect is really a "zombie" if you will. It's lifespan is depressing. It lives, mates, lays eggs, then dies as the mushroom spores onto the Paras eggs, burrowing the parasitic Mushroom into the body before it is even born. It's really sad. The moment Paras evolves, it becomes unconscious of anything it does. Later the mushroom tells it to mate, then kills it, growing out of it's hollow shell (this is assumed). The creepypasta claims that when asked about the rather creepy Pokemon and it's strange hollow eyes, Satoshi Tajiri became nervous and sweaty. When asked any further he would simply yell "PARASECT IS A POKEMON AND NOTHING MORE!! STOP OVERTHINKING IT!!". But people found this to even more disturbing. Some choose to believe that maybe Satoshi is trying to warn us of something. For example, where do Parasect live? Mt. Moon. Also home of a Pokemon thought to be an alien (Clefairy). And it's even more of a coincedence that Clefairy was originally slated to be the mascot of Pokemon before Pikachu. And if that isn't crazy enough consider this: Satoshi Tajiri collected bugs as a child, primarily cicadas and beetles. If you look at Paras you will see the striking resemblance to a cicada.

Your Rival
http://i489.photobucket.com/albums/rr253/05jamesd/PokemonTowerFloor1.png


[css-div="width: 415px; height: 288px; overflow: auto;"]
In the original Pokemon red/Blue, when you encounter your rival in Lavender Town he asks whether or not you know what it's like to have one of you Pokemon die. At the point in the game, he no longer has his Raticate that he used in previous battles. Your rival battle before this took place aboard the S.S. Anne. Your rival's Raticate sustained serious injuries from the battle... But, because of crowding and confusion on the luxury liner, he was unable to make it to a Pokemon center in time and the Raticate passed away . the real reason your rival is in Lavender Town to begin with is to lay his deceased friend to rest. Despite all of the, your rival never outwardly tells you that you're responsible for the death of his Pokemon. He hides his grief and instead channels that energy into the motivation he needed to continue his quest to become Indigo League Champion. The death of his Raticate effectively destroys your rival's impish, childhood innocence. Although he tells himself towards you which further fuels his ambitions. Tearfully swearing upon his Raticate's grave to not fail in what he set out to do, he trains hard in hopes of becoming better that you... Defeating you... And eventually make it to the Pokemon League. mere moments after he became Indigo League champion, he was defeated... By you. Although he fulfilled his promise to his fallen Pokemon, it was only for a painfully brief instant. In the end, your rival is scolded by his grandfather while you receive the professor's praise. During the course of the game, you steal your rival's innocence, crush his dreams, and ultimately snatch away the love of his own grandfather. Oh and by the way, your rival doesn't have any parents. He's and orphan.

White Hand

http://www.asitecalledfred.com/z/images/2005/29sept/PosterZombieHand.jpg
[css-div="width: 415px; height: 234px; overflow: auto;"]
Known in the code as WhitHand, this was scripted to appear as a Pokemon on the third floor of the Lavender Tower. It is divided into four separate animations: an introduction (the “cry” a Pokemon unleashes before a battle), an idle, and two attacks. These attacks are unknown, as they are listed simply as “Fist” and “Brutal”. While viewing the animation has been proven to be hazardous, viewing the frames of the model has been proven to have no adverse effects. The White Hand is depicted as a shriveled, slightly decayed hand, with surprising attention to detail: flesh is peeling back from the bone, and several tendons dangle realistically out of the wrist. The first attack is the hand balling into a fist, then swinging forward. However, the “brutal” animation is missing several frames: The hand seems to open up, then cuts out. After a few seconds, it reappears, closed again. No record has been found of these missing frames.
[/css-div] Burryman Script

http://i489.photobucket.com/albums/rr253/05jamesd/Zombie.png
[css-div="width: 415px; height: 301px; overflow: auto;"]
Often referred to as its code, the Buryman script, the Buried Alive Model was to be found on the final story of the Pokemon Tower, in what has now been replaced with the Marowak ghost. According to the scripts assigned to it, the Buried Alive model was intended to be the "boss" of the tower. Once reaching the top floor, the following conversation would have taken place.

Buried Alive: You're... Here.
BA: I'm trapped...
BA: And I'm lonely...
BA: So very lonely...
BA: Won't you join me?
After this, the battle would have been initiated. Once in
"battle view", the Buried Alive model appears to be a decaying human corpse attempting to crawl out of the ground. It has been programmed to have two White Hands(See above CreepyPasta), a Gengar, and a Muk. Strangely enough, a protocol for the Buried Alive's actions after it was defeated were not written. In the case of the player defeating him, the game would freeze. However, a specific ending was written by an unknown programmer upon losing the battle. In this ending, the Buried Alive was to have stated, "Finally, fresh meat!" followed by several lines of gibberish. He was to have then dragged the player character into the ground surrounding him. The scene would finish with a typical "Game Over" screen; however, in the background, an image of the Buried Alive character devouring the player was to have been shown. Especially strange are the protocols for after this scene. The cartridge was to download this image to the small internal memory contained in the Gameboy, overwriting the title screen that normally accompanied a Gameboy turning on. Instead, whenever it was started, the player would view this image as the sound file staticmesh.wav was played.

Pokemon Creepy Black

http://i489.photobucket.com/albums/rr253/05jamesd/PokemonBlackCartridge.jpg
[css-div="width: 415px; height: 313px; overflow: auto;"]
I’m what you could call a collector of bootleg Pokémon games. Pokémon Diamond & Jade, Chaos Black, etc. It’s amazing the frequency with which you can find them at pawnshops, Goodwill, flea markets, and such.
They’re generally fun; even if they are unplayable (which they often are), the mistranslations and poor quality make them unintentionally humorous.
I’ve been able to find most of the ones that I’ve played online, but there’s one that I haven’t seen any mention of. I bought it at a flea market about five years ago.
Here’s a picture of the cartridge (See Left Image), in case anyone recognizes it. Unfortunately, when I moved two years ago, I lost the game, so I can’t provide you with screencaps. Sorry.
The game started with the familiar Nidorino and Gengar intro of Red and Blue version. However, the “press start” screen had been altered. Red was there, but the Pokémon did not cycle through. It also said “Black Version” under the Pokémon logo.
Upon selecting “New Game”, the game started the Professor Oak speech, and it quickly became evident that the game was essentially Pokémon Red Version.
After selecting your starter, if you looked at your Pokémon, you had in addition to Bulbasaur, Charmander, or Squirtle another Pokémon — “GHOST”.
The Pokémon was level 1. It had the sprite of the Ghosts that are encountered in Lavender Tower before obtaining the Sliph Scope. It had one attack — “Curse”. I know that there is a real move named curse, but the attack did not exist in Generation 1, so it appears it was hacked in.
Defending Pokémon were unable to attack Ghost — it would only say they were too scared to move. When the move “Curse” was used in battle, the screen would cut to black. The cry of the defending Pokémon would be heard, but it was distorted, played at a much lower pitch than normal. The battle screen would then reappear, and the defending Pokémon would be gone. If used in a battle against a trainer, when the Pokéballs representing their Pokemon would appear in the corner, they would have one fewer Pokéball.
The implication was that the Pokémon died.

What’s even stranger is that after defeating a trainer and seeing “Red received $200 for winning!”, the battle commands would appear again. If you selected “Run”, the battle would end as it normally does. You could also select Curse. If you did, upon returning to the overworld, the trainer’s sprite would be gone. After leaving and reentering the area, the spot [where] the trainer had been would be replaced with a tombstone like the ones at Lavender Tower.

The move “Curse” was not usable in all instances. It would fail against Ghost Pokémon. It would also fail if it was used against trainers that you would have to face again, such as your Rival or Giovanni. It was usable in your final battle against them, however.
I figured this was the gimmick of the game, allowing you to use the previously uncapturable Ghosts. And because Curse made the game so easy, I essentially used it throughout the whole adventure.
The game changed quite a bit after defeating the Elite Four. After viewing the Hall of Fame, which consisted of Ghost and a couple of very under leveled Pokémon, the screen cut to black. A box appeared with the words “Many years later…” It then cut to Lavender Tower. An old man was standing, looking at tombstones. You then realized this man was your character.
The man moved at only half of your normal walking speed. You no longer had any Pokémon with you, not even Ghost, who up to this point had been impossible to remove from your party through depositing in the PC. The overworld was entirely empty — there were no people at all. There were still the tombstones of the trainers that you used Curse on, however.

You could go pretty much anywhere in the overworld at this point, though your movement was limited by the fact that you had no Pokémon to use HMs. And regardless of where you went, the music of Lavender Town continued on an infinite loop. After wandering for a while, I found that if you go through Diglett’s Cave, one of the cuttable bushes that normally blocks the path on the other side is no longer there, allowing you to advance and return to Pallet Town.
Upon entering your house and going to the exact tile where you start the game, the screen would cut to black.
Then a sprite of a Caterpie appeared. It was the replaced by a Weedle, and then a Pidgey. I soon realized, as the Pokémon progressed from Rattata to Blastoise, that these were all of the Pokémon that I had used Curse on.
After the end of my Rival’s team, a Youngster appeared, and then a Bug Catcher. These were the trainers I had Cursed.
Throughout the sequence, the Lavender Town music was playing, but it was slowly decreasing in pitch. By the time your Rival appeared on screen, it was little more than a demonic rumble.
Another cut to black. A few moments later, the battle screen suddenly appeared — your trainer sprite was now that of an old man, the same one as the one who teaches you how to catch Pokémon in Viridian City.
Ghost appeared on the other side, along with the words “GHOST wants to fight!”.
You couldn’t use items, and you had no Pokémon. If you tried to run, you couldn’t escape. The only option was “FIGHT”.
Using fight would immediately cause you to use Struggle, which didn’t affect Ghost but did chip off a bit of your own HP. When it was Ghost’s turn to attack, it would simply say “…” Eventually, when your HP reached a critical point, Ghost would finally use Curse.
The screen cut to black a final time.
Regardless of the buttons you pressed, you were permanently stuck in this black screen. At this point, the only thing you could do was turn the Game Boy off. When you played again, “NEW GAME” was the only option — the game had erased the file.
I played through this hacked game many, many times, and every time the game ended with this sequence. Several times I didn’t use Ghost at all, though he was impossible to remove from the party. In these cases, it did not show any Pokémon or trainers and simply cut to the climactic “battle with Ghost.
I’m not sure what the motives were behind the creator of this hack. It wasn’t widely distributed, so it was presumably not for monetary gain. It was very well done for a bootleg.
It seems he was trying to convey a message; though it seems I am the sole receiver of this message. I’m not entirely sure what it was — the inevitability of death? The pointlessness of it? Perhaps he was simply trying to morbidly inject death and darkness into a children’s game. Regardless, this children’s game has made me think, and it has made me cry.

Pokemon Lost Silver

http://i489.photobucket.com/albums/rr253/05jamesd/LostSilverScreenshot.png
[css-div="width: 425px; height: 200px; overflow: auto;"]
As I was busy with the school year and being a poorfag at the time, I wasn’t able to buy SoulSilver on launch date. After my school year ended, I ordered SoulSilver on Amazon (sorry, I’m not a faggy pirate). However, it would take a week for it to arrive. I decided that during that time, I replay my Crystal version on my Gameboy Color.
However, I realized that long ago, my mom threw it away because I told her the save went dead, and I was very upset about it then. She also threw away my Silver version, so all I have is my Gameboy Color. As such, I set out to Gamestop and bought a used Silver version, as it’s the only Pokemon game left that they have for the GBC. Ten dollars - fairly cheap despite it being Gamestop.
I went home and started it up for a nostalgia trip. However, that’s where things started getting bizarre, and most likely the reason why you read this.
The Gamefreak logo started up as normal, but it just froze there. I thought the cart was just errored or something, so I turned it off and on. The same thing happened. I tried pressing A and Start over and over, and all of the buttons. Eventually, the logo vanished and there was a black screen for about five seconds. Suddenly, rather than going to the usual menu screen, I was already in the game in a previous saved file, which was odd as I was expecting all of these carts to have been wiped by the poor battery. Either way, I wasn’t complaining, as I would have chosen the “Continue” option to see what the previous guy did anyways.
First off, I checked his trainer information. His name was just “…” - He didn’t have much originality.
I checked his profile and apparently he had 999:99 hours put into the game, with all 16 badges, 999999 Pokedollars and all 251 Pokemon on the Pokedex.
Seeing as he apparently had Mew and Celebi logged also, I am guessing he either used a Game Genie or is a really hardcore Pokemon player back then.
I checked his Pokemon to see what badass team he has. To my surprise, I saw 5 Unowns and a sixth Pokemon named “HURRY”. I’m thinking that this must be some cruel joke by the person who last played this game, but I decided to check the profiles of those Pokemon anyways. As expected, they were different letters of Unown, all Level 5. I was a bit shaky with my Unown alphabet at the time, but I identified the word spelled out to be “LEAVE”.
As for the sixth Pokemon, it turned out to be a Cyndaquil (mind you, this is before there were individualized Pokemon icons). The Cyndaquil looked normal, but it was Level 5 with only 1 HP left with only two attacks: “Leer” and “Flash”. I don’t know why they named him “HURRY”, but at the time, I just disregarded it. The most eerie thing was that, despite my volume being at max, none of the Pokemon he had said their usual cries. Just pure silence.
Having enough of the team, I closed it. I was parked at what appears to be a room inside Bellsprout Tower. However, for some reason, there were no NPCs around. Even more eerie was that the “pillar” in the middle didn’t move at all, as if just leaning on its side. There was no music at all, and there was no exit or ladder, or least I thought there wasn’t.
I walked around for a few minutes but can’t seem to find a way out. This was certainly not a room I’ve seen in the Bellsprout Tower before. I’ve tried checking my items for an Escape Rope, but the bag was completely empty. There wasn’t any Wild Pokemon either.
Finally, I’ve managed to find a ladder, which turned out to be behind the “pillar”. The screen turned black and the music finally started playing. I had a sudden chill, as I recognize that melody I heard to be the theme you hear when you listened to the radio at the Alph Ruins where the Unown are at.
I immediately realize that it wasn’t a loading transition, but rather I was in a dark room and would need Flash. Before I took care of that though, I immediately checked my Pokegear to change the radio to something more pleasant, but it turns out that there was no Radio card, or even a Phone nor Time cards. There was only a Map card in which Gold (“…” from earlier, and I will call him Gold from now on) was just walking in a midst of black.
I recall that Cyndaquil has Flash, so I turned off my Pokegear and made Cyndaquil use Flash. I didn’t see any message saying “HURRY has used Flash!” or anything like that. The room just became lit just like that, and I soon regretted it. The room was a chilling blood-red with a linear gray path heading south. The ladder I used to go up/down was not there at all.
I had no choice but to head south. The screen got darker every 20 steps I made, until I finally made it to the end, which appears to be a sign. I read the sign, which said “TURN BACK NOW”.
Suddenly, I was asked to answer YES/NO, but there was no question asked. I chose YES as I do not know what it was asking, and the screen went black again, making a “ladder climbed” sound. The Unown Radio music stopped, and in a few seconds was replaced with the not-as-creepy Poke Flute radio music.
I was in another dark room, but I held my breath and used Flash again. Suddenly, it said that “HURRY has fainted!” which was odd since I recall that there was no status conditions like Poison on him, and I clearly wasn’t in a battle. I checked my Pokemon quickly and suddenly he’s no longer in my party. In fact, after a bit of investigating, none of my Pokemon are there, but instead all replaced with Level 10 Unown. I did the same thing as before and spelled out the Unown. My then team of Unown spelled “HEDIED”.
Either way, after that creepy change, the room was lit to reveal myself in a very small room that appears to be only four squares big. The walls of that room were gray bricks, as if I was inside something that was hollowed out. Outside that room appears to be a bunch of graves similar to the ones in Pokemon Red/Blue. I’ve walked around that small room and pressed A but nothing happened.
I’ve already concluded that this was clearly a hacked game and some sadistic **** sold it to Gamestop. However, my curiosity kept me going. I checked the trainer profile of “…” again only to find out that the sprite of Gold was missing his arms. He also seems to appear less smug, but rather seems more sad and empty in a way that I do not know how to describe. For some reason, it also now said that he has 24 badges, which was clearly impossible.
After a few minutes of aimless wondering, my character suddenly spun and did the Escape Rope spinning animation. Instead of flying up though, my character spun downwards slowly, as if sinking.
After that screen, the music stopped. After finally landing, the overworld sprite of Gold is coloured differently now. Instead of the usual red colour he dons, he appears completely white now, including his skin. It’s as if he came straight from the colorless Game Boy games placed into a colored background of the Gameboy Color. I checked his profile, and now, while now is as white as his overworld sprite, he lost his legs and has what appears to be bloody tears from his eyes. It also says he now has 32 badges, which now starts to disturb me as this change of number seems to represent something important.
I also checked my Pokemon, which this time contains 5 Unowns and a Level 100 Celebi without a nickname. The Unown are this time Leveled 15 and spelled out “DYING”. I checked the Celebi’s profile. It was a shiny Celebi, except there’s only half of the sprite. One leg, one arm, one eye. It only has one attack: “Perish Song”.
The area I was in itself was the Sprout Tower with the immobile pillar as before, except everything is apparently red now. I walked north for what felt like forever. Eventually, I finally encountered some generic men and women NPC. They were all lined up to the side just facing the long slantish pillar in the middle. They were also white, and nothing happens when I try to speak to them. I kept on going north until eventually the pillar finally appears chopped off, with a transparent Red in that spot. I went up to Red and without even pressing A, I was suddenly engaged and finally in a battle.
The music starts again, which it sounds like the Unown Radio music again, but played backwards. Gold’s battle backsprite matches his front one with the bloody eyes, white skin, and lack of arms, while Red’s sprite was the same as before in GSC except transparent. The text simply said “wants to battle!” as if he has no name, and both of us only have one Pokemon each, which is weird as I swear I had six with the Unowns. My shiny Celebi came out, conveniently with half-a-sprite for the back sprite also. The “Shiny” noise and animation was different, as the sounds it made sound like multiple “Screech” attacks used consecutively. Red sent out a seemingly normal male Pikachu, except he is Level 255 and his sprite seems sad and has tears in his eyes.
Rather than the usual “FIGHT/ITEM/PKMN/RUN” menu, I was only given the option to use the Attacks. Since Celebi only has one, I chose it. Naturally, since Pikachu was Level 255, he went first.
“PIKACHU used CURSE!”, lowering his Speed and increasing his other Stats. I’m not even sure if Pikachu could even use Curse.
“CELEBI used PERISH SONG!” In three turns, both Pokemon get KO’d - not like I have a choice.
At this point, it didn’t even go back to the Fight menu, as the battle just continued without me. Also note that there was no animations at all for some reason.
“PIKACHU used FLAIL!”, which didn’t do much damage despite his Level and boost as his health was maxed.
“CELEBI used Perish Song!” Nothing happens as it was already used.
“PIKACHU used FRUSTRATION!”, which did a ****ton of damage, knocking Celebi down to less than 10 HP.
“CELEBI used Pain Split!”, which surprised me as Celebi didn’t even have that attack in the first place. Now Celebi and Pikachu have about 150 HP.
“PIKACHU used MEAN LOOK!” Not like that did anything.
As expected, due to the effects of Perish Song, my Celebi fainted. Except in the text, it said “CELEBI has died!” and instead of the ordinary drop off the screen animation, the CELEBI backsprite just vanished. For some reason, the Pikachu was still up even with Perish Song and it didn’t count as my lost. Pikachu used one more different attack beyond the 5 attack limit:
“PIKACHU used DESTINY BOND!”
Afterwards, it said “PIKACHU has died!”, with a slow fade-out animation. Apparently, I was the winner, as the transparent Red Sprite showed up and said “……….”
At that point, I just freaked out, as that transparent Red sprite was suddenly beheaded, leaving nothing but his transparent body. The battle then ended at that point and faded out along with the music.
I’m back in the overworld, with another change to the Gold sprite - he’s now as transparent as Red’s overworld sprite. I quickly checked Gold’s profile, where this time the only thing remains of him is his head, with a transparent skin. The head was zoomed in a bit, showing a black void in his eyes. It now stated that he now has 40 badges. I then backed out and checked my Pokemon. They were all Level 20 Shiny Unown, which when spelled out, read “NOMORE”.
I was at what I now know is next to the end. There was apparently no music playing, but for some reason I still felt like something was there that could be heard. I was back in my room in New Bark Town. Maybe finally I get to play this game properly, but who am I kidding. I knew that sadistic **** must have done something. I “walked” around my room to interact with things, as I’m a bit afraid to go down the stairs to see what was awaiting down there. Note I said “walked”, as while the background was moving, Gold was not moving his transparent limbs at all while doing so, just floating like those ghosts you see in Diamond/Pearl.
As expected, the radio, computer, and TV did not work, so I had no choice but to go down the stairs. I ended up in the same lower level room of my house. Everything appears normal, except mom isn’t home. After failing to interact with anything in this room, I decided to go outside. To my surprised, that door leading outside at the south didn’t work, and instead I just walk straight through it to a void. I continued moving south to see what the **** was going on. My house vanishes as I head south into the void. It was creepy as when I entered the void, the outline on Gold’s transparent sprite turned white to contrast with the pitch black. Eventually, I reached a white area and Gold’s sprite turned black and transparent again. I continued south without thinking of stopping at all.
After a long trek south, I finally encountered something. It was GOLD’s regular sprite. I talked to it. He said “Good bye forever ….” (notably with a space inbetween the forever and ….), and vanished. As that happened, it said “??? used NIGHTMARE” which at that point, I would not deny that being possible. Gold did another Escape Rope animation spinning slowly downwards like before.
I’m now back into that small hollowed-out room surrounded by graves earlier. Or at least I say I was back there, as there’s no sprite anymore. I tried to walk around but nothing moved - not even wall bumping noise. I checked my trainer profile with absolutely no Gold sprite left. It said I have 0 badges and all the pictures of the Johto Gym Leaders at the bottom were replaced with skulls
I checked my Pokemon, which were all Level 25 Unown. As expected, it spelled out a phrase that I dared to read. “IMDEAD”
As soon as I went back to the overworld, the room I supposedly was in was then covered with the same blocks as the walls. I then figured out what exactly that room was when the final text was said: “R.I.P. …”
That room was a big grave, surrounded by other grave. Gold has already been dead. He died presumably a few years after he defeated Red.
He was a young trainer who, despite his efforts in collecting so many badges and attempts at becoming a Pokemon master, was still unable to avoid the inevitable fate of death, and his efforts were eventually forgotten by the next generation.
I was unable to escape from that text no matter what I pressed. I tried resetting the game, and the same thing happened, at which I then finally decided to give up on that horrible nightmare.
After that experience, I will never look at the “gimmick” Unown the same way again. They say that only the first generation have folk tales and legends, but the second generation have shown me how unpleasant the truth can be. I eventually enjoyed SoulSilver immensely, but I still can’t unthink what that rigged game have told me.

Come Follow Me

[css-div="width: 425px; height: 200px; overflow: auto;"]
During the first few days of the release of Pokemon Red and Green in Japan, back in February 27, 1996, a peak of deaths appeared in the age group of 10-15.
The children were usually found dead through suicide, usually by hanging or jumping from heights. However, some were more odd. A few cases recorded children who had began sawing off their limbs, others sticking their faces inside the oven, and chocked themselves on their own fist, shoving their own arms down their throat.
The few children who were saved before killing themselves showed sporadic behavior. When asked why they were going to hurt themselves they only answered in chaotic screams and scratched at their own eyes. When showed what seemed to be the connection to this attitude, the gameboy, they had no response, but when combined with either Pokemon Red or Green, the screams would continue, and they would do their best to leave the room it was located in.
This confirmed the authorities suspicion that the games, somehow, had a connection to these children and the deaths. It was a strange case, because many children who had the same games did not show this behavior, but only a few. The police had no choice but to pursue this, since they had no other leads.
Collecting all the cartridges these children had purchased, they kept them sealed away as strong evidence to look over later. They decided the first thing to do was to talk to the programmers themselves. The first person they met was the director of the original games, Satoshi Tajiri. When told about the deaths surrounding his games, he seemed slightly uneasy, but admitted nothing. He lead them to the main programmers of the game, the people responsible for the actual content.
The detectives met Takenori Oota, one of the main programmers of the game. Unlike Satoshi, he did not seem uneasy, but very kept. Explaining that it was impossible to use something like a game to cause such deaths, and also bringing up the point that not all the children were affected, he brushed it off as some kind of odd coincidence or mass hysteria. It seemed like he was hiding something, but he wasn?t giving way. Finally, he did say something interesting.
Takenori had heard a rumor going around that the music for Lavender Town, one of the locations in the game, had caused some children to go ill. It was only a rumor, and had no real definite back up, but it was still something to look into.
He directed the detectives to Junichi Masuda, the music composer of the series. Masuda had also heard of these rumors, but again said they had no evidence that his music was the cause. Even to prove a point he played the exact song from the game completely through with no effects to anyone, the detectives nor Masuda himself, feeling anything different or odd. Although they still had their suspicions of Masuda and the music of Lavender town, it seemed they had reached another dead end.
Going back to the cartridges they had seized from the homes of the children, they decided to take a slightly more direct look at the games. They knew that it was these games that gave the children the ill effects, so they took extreme caution. Popping in the cartridge and turning the console on, the game screen booted. The title screen appeared, and the option to continue or create a new game appeared.
When they chose to continue the game, stats of that game appeared. They saw the names of the children who had played, usually “Red” or another simple name. However, the interesting thing was the time played and the number of Pokemon they owned. On every game, the time was very low, and all of them had only a single Pokemon in their inventory. They came to the stunning reality that it could not have been the music from Lavender town that had caused such ill effects in the children, since it was impossible to reach that part of the game in such small amount of time and with only one Pokemon in their inventory. This brought them to the conclusion that something early on in the game had to be the cause.
If it wasn’t the music, nor the title screen, it had to be something within the first few minutes of the game itself. They had no choice but to turn off the game now and go back to the programmers. Asking for a list of all the programmers from Takenori, they found, surprisingly, that one of the programmers had committed suicide shortly after the game was released. His name was Chiro Miura, a very obscure programmer who had provided very little for the game. Even more interestingly, he had requested his name did not appear in the credits of the game, and so it was not.
Looking over the evidence found at Chiro’s apartment, they found many notes written in bold marker. Most of it was crumbled, or marked out, making it very difficult to read. They few words they could find in the mess was “Do not enter”, “Watch out” and “COME FOLLOW ME” in bold. The detectives were unsure what these meant, but knew they had to have a connection. Further searching, they discovered Chiro was good friends with one of the map designers, Kohji Nisino, and this was probably the only reason Chiro had given a part in making the game.
Kohji Nisino, since the release of the game, had locked himself in his apartment, barely leaving in the dark of night to fetch anything he might need. He told his friends and family he was mourning for his dear friend Chiro, but they didn’t believe this, since Nisino had locked himself up the day the game was put in stores, a few days before Chiro had killed himself.
It was troubling, but the authorities finally persuaded Nisnino to sit down and speak with them. He looked as if he hadn?t slept in days, dark rings under his eyes. He stunk, his nails had grown black and his hair was greasy, sticking to his forehead and neck. He spoke in stutters and murmurs, but at least he had something to say.
When asked if he knew anything about the children who had died after exposure of the game and if it had any connection to the game, he answered them seemingly carefully, choosing his words thoughtfully before answering. He told them that his friend Chiro had an interesting idea with the game, something he had wanted to try since he heard the project was starting. Nisino himself knew Takenori, the director and main programmer, for a long time, so he could easily get a mediocre programmer in on the project with a little persuasion. It seemed Chiro had convinced Nisino to get him in on the project, and it had worked.
The detectives knew they were on to something. This unknown obscure programmer, Chiro, had to have something to do with it, something… They asked what Chiro’s idea was, why he wanted so badly to have a part in making this children’s game. Nisino told them that Chiro never told him much about it, other than a few details every now and then. He wanted to insert a special Pokemon in the game, one completely different from all the others. It would serve as an extra, a kind of out of place thrill for the player. It wasn’t, however, Missing No. It couldn’t be. With the gameplay time recorded on the cartridges, it was impossible for the children to have time to meet that Pokemon.
Nisino, throughout the entire conversation, seemed to break down even more with every question. The detectives pushed him more and more, searching through his mind for any and every scrap of knowledge this man had no game and Chiro… and Chiro’s intentions…
It was when they asked about the notes found in Chiro’s home that he snapped. From under the couch Nisino was sitting on he whipped out a pistol, pointing it straight at the police while backing away a few steps. Then, just as quickly, he brought the pistol to his face.
Don?t follow me…? muttered Nisino as he stuck the pistol in his mouth and pulled the trigger. It was too quick for the police to react. It was done. Nisino had killed himself, repeating slightly differently what was written on one of Chiro’s papers…
It seemed all leads had finally died. The team who had created this original game were splitting up, becoming harder to find. It was as if they were keeping a secret. When the police finally managed to talk with anyone who had parts in the game, even the obscure character designers or monster designers, it seemed they had nothing of interest to say. Most of them didn?t even know Chiro, and the few who did only seen him once or twice working on the game itself. Throughout all of this the only confirmation they had was that Chiro was indeed the one who had worked on the very early parts of the game.
It had been a couple of months after the original children suicides and the death rate had dropped dramatically. It seemed that the game was no longer giving any ill effects to any children. The call back of the games that was planned was canceled, since it seemed the game was no longer harming any children. They had began to think that maybe Takenori was right and it was all just a very odd coincidence or mass hysteria… Until they received the letter.
It was given to one of the detectives himself, quite directly out on the street. It was a woman who gave him the note, a very frail, thin, sick looking thing. She gave him the letter quickly, telling him it was something he needed to see, and without waiting for a response or another word, she disappeared into the crowd. The detective brought it to his office, and calling the others in, he brought it out and read it aloud.
It was a letter written by Chiro himself, but it wasn?t one found at his apartment. They had throughly searched and cleared out the place, so wherever this letter had come from, it wasn’t kept at his home. It was signed to be given to Nisino. It started off quite formal, a hello, how are you, regards to the family, and such. After one or two of these normal paragraphs, they reached a section that requested Nisino to get him into the game team, to get him a programming position in Pokemon Red and Green.
As the letter continued, the handwriting seemed to grow more jittery. He talked about a glorious idea he had, a way to program something unseen in any game before. He said it would certainly revolutionize not only the gaming industry, but everyone. He went on to say that it was a very simple procedure to program this idea into the game. He did not even have to add any foreign programming, but could use what was already given in the game itself. This would, the detectives agreed, make it impossible to notice any obscurities in the programming itself. It was a perfect way to hide whatever this was.
The letter ended abruptly. There was no goodbye, no say hi to the family, no write back, or thank you. Nothing like that. It was just his name, written hard in the letter where the paper almost broke through. It was only his name. :Chiro Miura.”
This was the nail in the coffin for the detectives. They had no more suspicion about the cause. Chiro had programmed something into the early parts of the game, something maddening. To further increase this streak of success, they discovered that the programming team had worked in pairs, even Chiro himself. He had worked with another programmer, Sousuke Tamada.
If anyone knew what the secret in this game was, Sousuke Tamada would be the man. This was their final hope of unraveling this mystery once and for all.
They learned Sousuke had provided a lot of programming to the game, and seemed to be an average, good guy and worker. They were easily allowed into his home, a fair place, and they entered his living room where they sat. Sousuke did not sit, however. He stood by the window of the second story floor, looking out onto the busy street. He was smiling a little.
There is no direct witnesses to the events that followed. The only thing from this conversation that remained was found on a voice recorder sitting on the table in front of the two detectives assigned to talk to Sousuke. What follows is the unedited recording:
Sousuke Tamada, what part did you have in the games Pokemon Red and Green?? asked the first detective.
I was a programmer. His voice was light, friendly, almost too friendly. “That’s all.”
Am I right in knowing that the programmers working on the game worked in teams?? asked the detective.
One could hear the voice of feet moving on the floor slightly. “You would be right,” said Sousuke after a moment of silence.
And your partner, his name was– The detective was quickly cut off by Sousuke eerie voice.
Chiro Miura… That was his name. Chiro Miura.
Another silence. It seemed the detectives were a little uneasy about this man. “Could you tell us if Muira ever acted strange at all, Any particular behaviors you observed while working with him at all?”
Sousuke answered them. I don’t know him that well, really. We didn?t meet up frequently, only every once in a while to trade data, or when the entire group was called up for a meeting… That’s the only times I really ever saw him. He acted normal, as far as I could tell. He was a short man, and I think this affected his consciousness.. He acted weaker than any other man I met. He was willing to do a lot of work to gain recognition, this I do know. I think…?
Silence. “Yes?” asked the detective, pushing for him to continue. “You think what?”
I think he was a very weak man. I think he wanted to prove himself regardless of this point… I think he wanted to make himself known for something special, something that would make people forget about the way he looked and pay attention to the powerful mind that lay inside his skull.. Unfortunately for him, however.. heheh.. He didn?t have much of a mind to back up that reasoning.?
Why do you say that?? asked the second detective.
Well it?s the simple truth,? answered Sousuke quickly. His feet could be heard moving across the tiled floor. ?He was nothing special, even if he wanted to believe so. You can?t become greatness, even if you believe it. It?s impossible… Somehow, I think Chiro knew this himself, somewhere deep in there, he knew it.?
The detectives were silent again, not sure how to steer the conversation. After a moment, they continued. ?Can you tell us what Chiro?s part of the game was? What did he work on exactly??
Sousuke answered more quickly than before. ?Nothing… I mean, nothing important. He worked on some obscure parts of the beginning of the game.? A pause, then a little more information. ?It was Oak?s part to be exact. He worked on some of Oak?s parts… When he?s seen first, you see..?
?What else?? pushed the police. They could hear it in Sousuke?s voice. He knew something. ?We know you know about the children and the deaths. We know it was Chiro who did it. He programmed something in the game.?
What are you implying?? asked Sousuke. It sounded like he was trying to maintain his voice.
We’re implying that since your his partner, if you?re hiding something from us then you could just as much be responsible for those children?s deaths as Chiro is himself!?
You can?t prove anything!? Sousuke shouted.
Tell us what Chiro did to the game!? they shouted back.
WHAT I TOLD HIM TO.?
Silence. Complete silence.
You want to know, huh?? asked Sousuke finally, breaking the eerie silence, but replacing it with his voice. ?You want to know what is this all about? Chiro was an idiot. He?d do anything for a bit of attention, anything at all. He couldn?t program worth a **** either. The one thing he could do, however, was be manipulated. You could tell him what to do, and he?d do it. He wouldn?t even question it, he?d do it. Just to hear that ?thank you? when you received the finish product, that was his reasons. That?s all he wanted.?
Two clicks from the detective?s guns could heard.
I could control his flawlessly. He?s a lot like Takenori… Of course none of you knew this, but I was the one who brought up the idea of the game, the idea of the entire operation. I just told the fellow what to do, and he followed me without doubt. He knows nothing, just like Chiro.?
A sound of a window opening could be heard, follow by the detectives.
Don’t move or we’ll shoot!?
Let me tell you about a mechanic in the game,? continued Sousuke. His voice was more rushed, but it still held that slyness. ?Consider it a hint, alright? If you walk around in grassy areas enough a Pokemon will appear, and you?ll have the chance to go into battle with it. It?s a necessary part of the game overall, you see??
Step away from the window! We won?t warn you again!?
At the start of the game you have to walk into the grassy area before Oak appears and you receive your first Pokemon, understand me? Under normal circumstances, it was programmed that even though you?re in a grassy area, no Pokemon will spawn… I made it different. I manipulated that Chiro, told him what to put in the program, gave him all the instructions on how to do it, and he did it flawlessly. It?s rare, but it can happen.. Stepping into that grass, one can spawn…?
Sousuke, we don?t want to shoot!?
Shoot me?? asked Souske, laughing at the same time. ?Shoot ME? You?re as dumb as Chiro was! Once he found out the truth, he had to end it! It was his fault after all! He shot himself because of it! If you?re so determined to finish that case of yours, if you want to know, play the damn game for yourself! Roll the wheel, and who knows? Maybe you?ll learn the secret for yourself!?
A shot could be heard, loud enough to distort the audio. Sounds of screaming, murmuring could be heard. The table the recorder was on crashed. Ear shattering distortions. Silence. Then laughing. Sousuke was laughing, and then words. ?Come follow me… Come follow me…? And then nothing.
The recorder continued to record until the tape ran out. There was nothing else on it. The police arrived on the scene quickly, and to their horror they discovered Sousuke and the two detectives dead. They had all been shot, but not after struggling. The detectives had been shot multiple times, at least ten each, before dying after being shot in between their eyes. Sousuke himself had clearly died of two shots to his chest, straight through the heart.
This game was causing a massacre. At least a hundred children were dead. Nisino, the unexpecting friend, dead. Chiro, the manipulated toy, dead. The two detectives, dead. And now, even the creator, the cause of this atrocity, Sousuke, dead. This game was stretching far over it?s original intentions. It was killing anyone and everyone who got involved.
The lead detective had decided to put this case away. He man who committed the crime was dead, so there was no longer any reason to continue the case. All evidence, all the cartridges, all the notes, all the letters, they were locked away, kept in the darkness where they belonged. There were talks about the entire thing, small conversations every now and then, but over the years even these began to fade away. Eventually, the case was only a memory in the minds of those who experienced it first hand.
Ten years passed. February 27, 2006 was the date. The lead detective, the man who locked away the original evidence ten years previous, was reminded of the awful event that occurred. Although he was no longer in the force, he still had access to files and was helped when he could. The reminder of the event caused him to look back, to open the sealed container that held all the evidence collected.
He read through the letters and the notes. He remembered the woman who had appeared to him on the street that one day and handed him that letter that lead to the change of the entire case. He wondered who she was, and where she had come from. Perhaps she was Chiro?s mother… or maybe Sousuke?s. It was far too late to pursue any of this. Far too late..
Sealing the container again, he saw a second one directly behind it. Pulling it out, he read the note on top of it. ?Evidence #2104A? He opened it up, and looked inside. Filling the container were exactly 104 Pokemon Red and Green cartridges, each one in perfect condition, untouched since the day they had last checked them ten years ago.
He reached in and pulled one out, Pokemon Red. He hadn?t seen one in a long time. He didn?t know what he thought next, but he reached in his desk and pulled out an old Gameboy. He received it a long time ago, but it still worked. It was his son?s, but he had died a few years ago. His wife was gone too. That was then though. Popping in the cartridge in the back of the Gameboy he turned on the system.
The title screen. Then the option to continue or start a new game. ?Tanaka.? That was the child?s name, the one who played it first. He was probably dead, along with all the others. He pressed New Game, and started a new game. It was normal, average. He walked around, talked to his mother, went outside. He started walking towards the grass.
In his head, he could still hear Sousuke?s words. Even though he was not there, even though he had never seen the man in his life, he could still see him, hear him. ?Come follow me.?
He was getting closer and closer, only a step or two away.
Roll the wheel, and who knows? Maybe you?ll learn the secret for yourself!?
He entered the grass. The screen did nothing at first. Nothing at all. It just sat there, and so did the detective, completely frozen, as if time had stopped just for them. The screen went black. and then lit up again, the iconic green background with black text appearing.
The lead detectives weary eyes grew wide. He couldn?t help but read out what was there in front of him.
Come follow me, come follow me, come follow me. I miss you dad, I miss you my husband, I miss you so much.?
Tears formed in his eyes, falling down his cheeks. Screens and screens of text appeared and he rapidly clicked the A button to continue it. It was his wife and his child. They were speaking to him, calling to him, crying with him. They wanted to see him, they loved him, he loved them.
I love you too,? muttered the man in a hoarse, scratching voice.
Come follow me, become new again. We want to see you and hold you, and be with you forever and ever and ever and ever.?
AND EVER AND EVER…?
Don?t stay away. You can see us too.. We miss you.. Come follow me. We love yo–?
A black screen. The detectives eyes grew wide, his jaw dropping. The screen lit back up, and Oak was leading him out of the grass. Come follow me, said Oak.
NO! shouted the man, dropping the game onto the floor. He quickly fell forward, reaching for it, bringing the screen back to his face. ?Bring them back, bring them back to me!? The game continued on as usual, not responding to the detective at all. ?My wife, my child, listen to me! Bring them back to me, I said!?
Voices… He heard voices, hundreds of voices. He turned around from his seat, looking behind him, and standing in his small room were children, many children. Some had no eyes, some had rings around their throats, some were burned all across their body. They were screaming, reaching towards him.
Bring back my mommy, bring back my daddy, bring back my pet!? they all screamed out, reaching for the game, their mouths agape with horror and pain. ?I don?t want them to go away, bring them back to me, bring them back to me!?
No! shouted the detective. It’s mine! My family is here, don?t touch it!? Horror was across his face.
Come follow me…? said a voice. The lead detective looked over, and in the corner of his room, next to an old desk, was Sousuke. He stood in the corner, tall, handsome, clean. A smile was on his face, stretching across his face. ?Come follow me…?
The lead detective jumped up, stepping back, trying to force away the children crawling towards him, reaching out for the game held tightly within his hands. ?Wh-what?s going on here!? What?s going on!? Where is my family!??
Sousuke smiled generously. ?I?ll show you. I?ll help you get away from them, you see? Just follow me.? Sousuke reached down, and opened a drawer on the old desk. The lead detective, pushing through the crowd of children, trying to get away, looked inside.
Siting there, covered with dust, was his old gun from when he was on the force. He had not used that gun in many years and had put it away, not wanting to remember the things he had to do with it. But right now he didn?t see it as something that caused pain or that killed. It was shining, it was light. It was something that could set him free.
Just follow me,? said Sousuke, picking up the gun and putting it in the lead detectives hand. He formed his hand to hold the gun, then brought it up to his temple. ?Just pull the trigger. That?s all.?
The lead detective turned around. The children were crawling at him, grabbing his legs and pulling at him. They reached for the game. He turned back towards Sousuke, and smiled.
My family… I?ll follow you.? He pulled the trigger. Bang. His brains spread the wall as he fell to the ground, dead.
It was a few days before the body was discovered. It lay on the floor, blood everywhere. In one hand held an empty gun, and in the other was a classic Gameboy with Pokemon Red on the back. The battery had long died, and only an empty, black screen was left.
This was the final murder that the remaining authorities would allow. The last detective who was ever a part of this case personally carried all 104 cartridges away, and burned them all, making sure not a single one survived. There would taunt no more.
However, this is not the end of the story. The code was said to have survived, and was even passed on to other language versions of the games. If you have an old Pokemon game, you can place the cartridge in the back of the classic Gameboy, turn on the system, and roll the wheel who knows? Maybe you?ll learn the secret for yourself.

[css-div="width: 415px; height: 200px; overflow: auto;"]
A few years back, whilst feeling nostalgic, I dug out my old Silver game. Tragically, the battery had died, thus my save data was all missing, and I was unable to start a new save. Oddly, this has been the first time in all of my 20+ years of playing video games that a battery has died in one of my cartridges.

This left me understandably disappointed, as I had lived and breathed that cartridge when it was new. I was rarely without it within arm's length, no matter where I was, had accumulated at least one dozen each of Shinies and Level 100s, and worst yet - I had traded my best Pokémon from my first game, Blue, to it, including a Level 100 Squirtle that I had outfitted with strong physical attacks and named "Ninja".

While I was thoroughly sad in regards to this event, it was not something that
dehabilitated me in any way. For the next few years, I, on the whole, forgot about my little Silver cartridge, and went on with life.

Every summer my family goes to the local Swap Meet. It's been tradition for as long as I can recall and continued even after I moved away from my parents; last summer was no exception. The Swap Meet, especially recently, has had the quality of its selection decreased by far, but a few gems can be found to the careful observer; for example, five years ago, I had nabbed a pirated English Pokémon Green version for $10, that, although it is just a title screen hack of the English Blue release in a green cartridge, is one of my prized possessions.

In any case, last year, I came across an elderly gentleman with a slew of old games for various Nintendo systems. Most of these cartridges were either games I already owned, or had no interest in, such as the stacks of every Madden release for the SNES that were so high that they threatened to topple every time someone approached the table.

Skimming through the GameBoy games he had for sale, I came across a copy of Pokémon Silver. Strangely, although the little labels affixed for prices on the cartridges read $5-15 on each GameBoy cartridge, Silver was only noted as $1. Nostalgia came flooding back to me, and not wishing to curse my luck, I decided not to inquire the price and jumped on the chance to purchase the game.

I had become sidetracked upon arriving home that night, so the game went untouched until the following afternoon. Rummaging through my bounty of the previous day, I came across the Silver cartridge and decided to give it a go.

I popped the cartridge into my GameBoy Advance and booted up the game. A save file was already present, and like anyone would be, I was a tad curious as to what had gone on in the previous owner's game. I smiled as I chose "Continue", hoping to receive a little insight on a stranger's psyche.

Immediately after the game started, I realized that I hadn't seen the name assigned to the player character; using the start menu to check, I found it was labeled as "The S".

I cocked my eyebrow in surprise. Surely, there was no way anyone else would use this moniker in his or her game - in all of my years, the only people I've encountered using it have been deliberate impostors - hardly someone that would use it in a game of Pokémon.

I shrugged this off for a few mere seconds, when I had found that the player's team also mirrored mine at the last time I had seen it - Ninja, Venom Jr. (Beedrill), Mewtwo, Lugia, Letherhed (Feraligatr), and Slashclaw (Scyther). I couldn't tell whether I was more creeped out or jubilant. Eventually, even though I failed to comprehend exactly how this turn of events came to be, I was just so excited to see my old team again that I continued to press on.

Everything in the game mirrored my previous Silver adventure, right down to other Pokémon I had caught, rival's name, and more. Despite still feeling a little uneasy over my game being duplicated, I kept playing, as nothing else seemed amiss, and it was like I had never lost my initial game.

After clocking a few hours just battling and messing around, eventually I made my way to Cinnabar Island. This is where things truly began to frighten me. Cinnabar had been restored to its former glory, as it had been in Generation I. My fear temporarily subsided after I reasoned that it had to be some sort of hacked cartridge, or maybe, since I had read that Gold and Silver were built on Generation I's architecture, that some glitch had called back to some Gen I Cinnabar Island data still left on the cartridge. This second theory seemed to be the most accurate at the time, considering that the buildings on the island were unavailable for entrance (as if the code to enter the buildings had been disabled) and the sole inhabitant, an old man, spoke only in glitchy-looking gibberish.

I fooled around a bit, surfing and fishing around the area. I was only coming up with low level Magikarp and Tentacool, which was becoming exceedingly tedious. Just I was heading back to the island from surfing off the east side, I ran into a Wild Pokémon encounter. With a sigh, I anticipated another Tentacool, but what awaited me caused my heart to skip a beat.

I don't know why I hadn't consciously made an effort to run into MissingNo. on the coast of Cinnabar Island, but I did indeed encounter it upon my attempted return to land. However, instead of the garbled mess of town sprites that normally compose Pokémon #000 (as well as many glitches in Generation II), this was the standard Red/Blue MissingNo. sprite. Unfortunately, MissingNo.'s appearance in this game wasn't what had me nearly soiling myself in terror; it was the cry it made upon appearing. A sound that had already burrowed itself into my brain.

Earlier that year, I had been out for a jog a few blocks from my apartment, when I had come across a house on fire. Nobody seemed to be around, nor was anyone responding to my shouts for help. I did not have my cell phone on me at the time, and so, in an instinctual move, I broke a window and entered the house. Exiting the kitchen (which was the room I had come into from the window), I was hit in the back with something heavy, hard, and hot (although not on fire), sending me to the floor. Unable to get up, I heard a blood-curdling scream echo throughout the building. Later, after I had been rescued by the firefighters, I had learned that it was the elderly man that had lived there; his wife was already dead when I had made my rescue attempt.

This was the sound that MissingNo. made. The scream of a man burning to death.

Immediately, I dropped my GBA on the couch. Terror flowed through my body like blood, as I just stared at the game lying there. I didn't know what the hell was going on, or what I was going to do next. It may have actually been but a few minutes, but it seemed as if an eternity had passed before I worked up the nerve to pick it up again, again trying to reason why this had occurred, I figured that it simply was a random assortment of glitch noises that just happened to sound similar to the man's screaming. With a shaky hand, I lifted the game up, telling myself how silly it was to be freaking out over a game.

Although it was only Level 3, the MissingNo. wiped out my entire team - which consisted of three Level 100s and no Pokémon under Level 70 - with one Water Gun each, claiming it was "Super effective" no matter what type the Pokémon it hit was.

After Whiting Out, I arrived in a Pokémon Center that according to the map, was in Lavender Town. I had not visited Lavender since I had turned on the game several hours previously, so I was a bit surprised at this. I suddenly heard a bizarre noise, which actually did sound like a glitched warble that would be given off by a MissingNo. It took me a few minutes, however, to realize it was my cell phone. This was not a normal sound for my phone, thus I was startled. Flipping it open, I found that the battery was drained, and it was warning me of such. I had just charged the phone the previous night and the phone has only ever been drained when I hadn't charged it for a couple of days, or used it excessively - which I hadn't.

Sighing, I plugged in my phone, only to be shocked to see a photo pop up on the screen. It was a MissingNo. against a plain white background. Pressing a key on the phone made the phone cycle to another photo, which was another one of MissingNo., but from another angle, as if it were a 3D representation of the glitch, such as an action figure or papercraft.

It took a lot of attempts, but eventually I was able to figure out how to delete the photos (as the normal method only caused the phone to advance to the next photo). Sadly, these photos either overwrote or deleted the dozen or so photos I had on the phone previously.

Now aware that there was definitely something "not right" going on, I approached the game again... but instead of turning it off, I continued playing. I can't tell you why I did... morbid curiosity, perhaps, or maybe it had me in some sort of trance. Normally, as a fan of horror movies, I would think myself savvy enough to not take the bait, but ultimately, I kept at it.

Exiting the Pokémon Center, I found the surroundings to be familiar, but a bit different than I recall Silver's Lavender Town being. It didn't take long to dawn on me that it was because this Lavender Town was a reproduction of the Generation I version, like Cinnabar Island before it - Pokémon Tower included.

I walked into the Pokémon Tower, but the interior was completely different than in other games. It was a small nigh-featureless room, about the size of the inside of a Pokémon Center, with one gravestone in the center. My palms sweating so hard that I thought I was going to drop the game, I approached the grave, expecting to see my name there.

"Here lies Tomb."

Now, most of you would probably find this a bizarre non-sequitur or the game pointing out the obvious. After all, it's a tombstone, so of course there lies a tomb, right?

This message had special connotations for me, however. I had a close friend named Tasha who I had basically mentored for almost a decade, who was like family to me. When she moved out to Wisconsin, her friends there realized that her initials - TMB - were like "tomb" without an 'o', so that became her nickname. Tasha ended up having lymphoma, and while she was sick, I lent her my English Green version - her name as "Tomb" in that game is still there to this day. She passed away in 2008.

This was starting to drive me mad. This game knew details of my life, or at the very least, ones that had been entered into my Pokémon games previously. It was causing things to happen with my cell phone - even though Crystal was the first game to have cell phone interaction, and that was removed from the English version. And it was able to reproduce, realistically, the screams of a burning old man despite the technology not being available on an 8-bit cartridge.

My text message ring tone went off on my phone at this time, causing me to drop the game on the couch hard enough to bounce. Eying my phone, I was reluctant to pick it up again. After a few minutes, eventually irritated by the ring tone going off every 30 seconds as a reminder, I picked up the phone and saw that it was from Tasha's partner, Leslie. At first a chill went down my back, as there was no way this was a coincidence that she was texting me right after I had seen this event in my game. Then, I, still likely in denial, reasoned that perhaps there was ultimately some mystery and that she had come across clues. Sure, it's a hard pill to swallow, but at this point, I was grasping at straws.

I saw that the text had a photo attached, so I held my breath for a moment while I chose to download it. My phone is a TracFone that runs on pre-paid phone cards, so it's not exactly stellar technology, and thus, it took a while for the attachment to transfer. When it appeared on the screen, I came face-to-face with the most horrifying sight I had ever seen in my life.

Tasha appeared on the screen, her flesh a sickly gray and her face covered in deep, bleeding cuts, like the time she had been thrown through a bar window. Her mouth was twisted in a menacing scowl, and her normally beautiful eyes were completely devoid of life. She appeared to be reaching for either the photographer or the item being used to take said photo.

Seeing the face of someone so close to me in such a disturbing manner, tears began to trickle down my face. I just stared at her, willing away the photo while my thumb nervously bashed the keypad, trying to get the image off. I finally managed to delete the text (via the standard method, not the workaround I'd used to get rid of the MissingNo. photos), and quickly closed the phone. Using my landline, I dialed up Leslie... no answer, no voice mail. Scared out of my wits, I pulled the cartridge from the GBA's slot (without first turning it off), stepped out onto my balcony into the hot summer night, and flung the cartridge with all of my might across the street, hearing it crash against something with a satisfying snap.

The GBA screen was white, and there was no sound emanating from it. I turned off the system, confident that I had beaten whatever cursed monstrosity that had tormented me. As I went to put away the GBA, I saw a Silver cartridge sitting on my sofa. Nearly vomiting, I realized there was no price sticker, and that this was my original Silver cartridge, which must've fallen out from the carrying case. Just to be certain, I loaded it into my GBA, and it indeed had no save file. Satisfied, I returned everything to it rightful place. I checked the cell one last time, and everything seemed to be in order, save for all of the photos that were removed by the MissingNo. ones.

I never did have problems with the cell phone or GameBoy again. I got a hold of Leslie the next day through her job, and she had told me that she had switched providers but not numbers, thus why I wasn't able get a hold of her. I decided not to frighten her with the plight I had just encountered, though.

To this day, I don't think I'll ever get another Silver version. I definitely will not purchase any more Pokémon games secondhand, and if I decide to get one of the remakes, I'm getting HeartGold.

[Mayfan24]

To start off a creepypasta is a creepy story that is spread through the interwebs and over the past few months there have been a lot created about pokemon. And in case you haven't noticed yet there have been a lot of creepypasta floating around the web lately about Pokemon R/B/G/Y and G/S/C and also the others but mostly the first two generations so i thought what better place to discuss and share them than here?

So to begin with here are a few creepypasta that i've found.

Hypno's Lullaby

"Come little children, come with me
Safe and happy, you will be
Away from you're homes, now let us run
With Hypno, you'll have so much fun

Oh, little children, please don't cry
Hypno wouldn't hurt a fly
Be free, be free, be free, to play
Come down in my cave with me to stay

Oh little children, please don't squirm
Those ropes, I know, will hold you firm
Hypno tells you this is true
But sadly, Hypno lied to you

Oh little children, you musn't leave
Your families for you will grieve
Their minds will unravel at the seams
Allowing me to haunt their dreams

But surely, all of you must know
That it is time for you to go
Oh little children, you weren't clever
Now you shall stay with me forever."

Also sorry if there is already a thread for this, i did search and everything. and if it's in the wrong place please move it.

i gotta say the story about the silver version creeped me out the most.

[shininglatios217]

i gotta say the story about the silver version creeped me out the most.

The suicide one, the Silver Version one, the Pokémon Black one and Hypno's lullaby completely scared me.

[Åzurε]

Creepy Black is going to become a reality, if the people who do it actually do it. Epic win.

[Philosoraptor]

Creepy Black is going to become a reality, if the people who do it actually do it. Epic win.

They're also doing a ROM of the Silver one, if I remember correctly.

[Rapidash]

The Black one is so freaky...

[Sleet]

I found them a pretty Interesting read. I like story's like those :P

[PunxsatownyPhil]

Silver? Impossible with Gen 2. Just impossible.
Second one is very creepy. False, of course, but scary.
Black? Read that. Completely impossible.

That is pretty creepy O.o

I haven;t heard any creepy Pokemon things yet.

I'm sure those hacks are sorta creepy to play through, but they're supposed to be. IMO, it's no big deal past that. xD; They achieved their goals, apparently. BUT the Silver story.. I saw that image some weeks ago and after reading it I felt like such a jerk. XD; It's just one of those 'mind = blown' things, that you'd never think of during the actual play through of the game. Poor Silver.

This reminded of that poem.

[Noka]

Eh...that second one is impossible, considering the Sousuke guy is still alive, and a quick google search reveals nothing of the other two "obscure" names used.

Still, I was kind of creeped out by all of that.

Also, PunxsatownyPhil (http://www.pokecommunity.com/member.php?u=179611), you're fifteen; what makes you so sure that it's impossible to do these things?

I think I know the limits of modding capability in the early gens. You'd have to program the trainer card to swap sprites after a set period of time, and replace other sprites with the altered gold ghost sprites and... I just can't imagine that happening in Gen. 2. Also, the switching of Pokemon with predetermined names and movesets in and out of the party.

Same with the end of creepy black: even if you could do all of the earlier stuff, like replacing NPCs with tiles regardless of palette, how could you make the end of a Gen. 1 game show the sprites of ONLY characters you used curse on throughout the course of the entire game, and then program a Pokemon to only use a move once you reach a certain level of HP? I'm not saying I know a lot, or even a little about the games' coding, but I'm pretty sure modding at that level wasn't possible then.

Also, my age has nothing to do with this.

[Lightning]

The PKMN Silver one was really good up until the end when it just got kind of boring. :( Aww. The suicide one still gives me goosebumps though. 8)

These threads are always a little sad because of all the people completely unwilling to suspend belief and let themselves get a little creeped out. :( We get it, you don't all need to rush in and say "ACTUALLY THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE." We know. You're missing the point of creepypasta.

[GaXeL]

i hate how they replaced the Cemetary tower with a radio tower i wanna avenge that marowak again T_T

[Ghrimm]

That one about the suicides of Pokemon Red and Green scared the hell outa me. Really good story telling.

[orange discontent]

There's like 5 Pokemon creepypastas ever, though "Pokemon Black" is one I haven't seen for once. Cool.

[560cool.]

Okay. This thread beats the Old Chateau for a creepy atmosphere.
Since it's 11 PM here (night-mare), I'll better research more extensively tomorrow. Really, after reading the first two (I already knew the RG suicide story), I'm not really sure what am I about to dream... >_>

Now i know it's not the best but i don't see any of you guys finding any.

[shininglatios217]

Hybrid Trainer: Maybe you should post the Parasect one, too.

[Heart's Soul]

Modding can make anything happen. The Silver thing is being made, and Black is quite possible. We're going to need more ROM space, and more SAV space! Yes, I want the SAV 128KB, ROM is fine as 2 or 4 MB.

[Lieutenant Unstable]

The Hypno poem....

Gave me goosbumps. :S

[Missingno.7-4468]

Great i read the contruction creepypasta one, now im all like <.> frozen.
but pokemon black will always be the best, and should be a game. i would get it to like a falsh cart? or something and have my friend/s play it to o.o..
The silver one was good to.
and hypnos poem wasent that scary or something. the construstion was only good at the end though

[Inkpuddle]

I've read these so many times in the past and I love them, especially the Silver one.
It's true, this one guy is making a game of it. There's a demo out that I played and it spooked the hell out of me. It's made from scratch which probably explains how he did it in the first place.

[Zebeedoo]

I have to say, the Silver and Green one freaked me out something shocking. o.o But these are really interesting! "]

Oh, i remember reading this one. I'm still researching it actually, Apparently it's caused one child to throw up and then black out according to someone on Deviant Art. And i've also heard rumors that it caused some children to commit suicide, However this is yet to be confirmed.

EDIT: I'd recommend anyone under the age of 16 NOT to listen to the original Lavender Town Tone. There must be a reason why they changed it.

but anyway, This reminded me of this one also about Lavender Town's music.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MK2iLnTR9V8
Click on Play and then while the music is playing read the comment thing under the video (don't worry you wont miss anything in the video) Then watch the video until its finished, And then finally read the first letter of each paragraph. Scares the crap out of anyone who watches it :P

[Zebeedoo]

The Lavender Town music reversed is scary stuff. o-o I am actualy freaked. XD; and I'm under 16... god I hope nothing happens to me. XDD

[Hybrid Trainer]

Well i meant not to listen to the original lavender town music from the original Japanese red and green games as that's the one that's suppose to cause odd effects in children.

And not to worry, i said under 16 because as you age your hearing deteriorates and so by the age of 16 you definitely won't be able to pick up the part that causes the odd effects.
And also final piece of knowledge. It would be an immediate effect, not something that would happen about five minutes later.

[Rapidash]

I have utterly terrified myself with that Lavender Town tune.

It was terrifying to begin with. When I was little I don't think I realised how creepy it was

[Heart's Soul]

I have found Lavender.wav from a creepypasta on Youtube. And, god does my head hurt! The Japanese version is lethal.

Binaural beats... I'm actually going to do a science project on those. They have a scary one... Look up "Gates of Hades reaction" on youtube. If they have ones that scare you, they definitely have ones that can depress you, if this wasn't a scary one.

[Space Cowboy]

Haha, I think just last week I listened to the "extrasensory" version of the Lavender Town theme. Maybe you could say it was just a placebo effect after all the hype given into the creepy pastas surrounding it, but I have to admit I had a bit of a headache.

And it's even more unpleasant with headphones on. </3

[Heart's Soul]

I had the idea of throwing the Lavender Town Creepypasta around school. After that, on the first assembly that I can get my hands onto (which shouldn't be that hard), I'll just play the video of the mysterious frequencies. Flickering the lights whenever the ghost shows up and then... cutting all lights, power, etc when it shows the UNOWN text. Amazing how the guy did it, though. He's not dead, he shows up every day.

[The Explorer Of Destiny]

Those creepypastas are good!
God I'm freaked 0_0

[Hybrid Trainer]

Hey people, due to the fact that i've got a hell of a lot of free time right now (no job no school no money to go out) i'll be sprucing up the thread.
If any of you have any CreepyPasta you'd like submit i would appreciate it if you gave it me now as to be completely honest i probably won't be updating as much as i would like to.

[Noka]

...I swear, the backwards Lavender Town music has to be the creepiest thing to ever exist.

Yes, it's probably even creepier than the Lavender Town video that Hybrid Trainer posted.

now lets make our own
Can i just point out that i would ♥♥love♥♥ it if people made there own Pokemon CreepyPasta. I would too if it weren't for my complete lack of any form of English skill :P

[shininglatios217]

I haven't heard of that one, why don't you post it for us?

And here's another one i found.
http://defaultprime.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/1279338787563.jpg

I found it. It was posted in a Pokémon GSC Beta Elements thread:

The one that interests me the most is the Parasect Creepypasta. To be honest, it was a Pokemon I overlooked until I heard the rumor. You can probably Google it, but here is the gyst of the story:

Parasect is controlled by the Mushroom on it's back (says so in the Pokedex entry). In fact, Parasect is really a "zombie" if you will. It's lifespan is depressing. It lives, mates, lays eggs, then dies as the mushroom spores onto the Paras eggs, burrowing the parasitic Mushroom into the body before it is even born. It's really sad. The moment Paras evolves, it becomes unconscious of anything it does. Later the mushroom tells it to mate, then kills it, growing out of it's hollow shell (this is assumed). The creepypasta claims that when asked about the rather creepy Pokemon and it's strange hollow eyes, Satoshi Tajiri became nervous and sweaty. When asked any further he would simply yell "PARASECT IS A POKEMON AND NOTHING MORE!! STOP OVERTHINKING IT!!". But people found this to even more disturbing. Some choose to believe that maybe Satoshi is trying to warn us of something. For example, where do Parasect live? Mt. Moon. Also home of a Pokemon thought to be an alien (Clefairy). And it's even more of a coincedence that Clefairy was originally slated to be the mascot of Pokemon before Pikachu. And if that isn't crazy enough consider this: Satoshi Tajiri collected bugs as a child, primarily cicadas and beetles. If you look at Paras you will see the striking resemblance to a cicada.

Now I'm not quite sure I believe this, after all it is just a Creepypasta. But Paras and Parasect are based off of a real phenomena in South America, where a Mushroom (I forgot the name) will spore onto ants and will release halucinogens into the ants mind to tell it where to go. So there is a bit of truth behind these Pokemon.



Aside from that, another thing that could have inspired Parasect is a mushroom parasite from Asia that infects caterpillars called tochukaso that sprouts from the caterpillar's head and people use it as medicine.

[ORegan]

Well, it seems someone wrote a whole article about the parasect thing:

That Lavender Town music is really creepy and I hope that it's all just a rumor. To be honest, I don't see how this can be true because a music file shouldn't be able to cause people's moods to change and become suicidal. But then, what do I know? There's a lot in this world that remains to be explained and it seems Lavendar Town's original music is one of them.

Well i haven't listened to the whole thing yet but i've heard that it's when it gets to about 5:30 or something like that is when it gets really freaky.

It's like the equivalent to 'seeing what that noise was'. :P

Man, the Lavender Town and Ruins of Alph musics are two of my favorite pieces in all of Pokemon. They... Aren't scary... Just music. I don't get why everyone is so scared lol

Also the Pokemon Red detective one is obviously fake. Cross-reference the people named.
That, and the writing was just so bad. It wasn't scary.

Binaural beats. They work best in the dark with headphones on. The differences in pitch between your ears cause theta waves and stuff in your head. A company called iDoser makes ones that will make you feel stoned, high, happy, jizz in your pants, or scared sh**less. You can probably find some to download online fre-*cough cough cough*

Well i think anybody who has ever been on 4chan can say they've been on it one to many times :P But its a great place to kill time when you've got nothing else to do and have next to no brain activity going XD

And well to be honest i'm not looking for new creepypasta at the moment anyway because i've ran out of character space in the first post.

I've only heard of the Pokemon Creepy Black, hacked Silver, and the Lavender music one... until I've read this thread, of course.

I still find the one about Pokemon Silver the creepiest.

Even creepier, I managed to stumble upon this 2 days ago...

I think the Hypno Poem thing was referenced in there...

My advice: if you plan on getting Pokemon Black Version in Generation V, don't read these, or that Creepypasta "Black Version" will keep on popping up in your head...

Oh, i remember reading through all those pokemon horrors. Took me like 3 hours, there was loads of 'em!

Yeah...very interesting read, though it took a while. I think I was actually searching for Pokemon music, and somehow I ended up there...?

I'm just creeped out because here comes this thread, and I thought I wouldn't be referencing that TVTropes Pokemon Nightmare Fuel page for a very long time...

It's interesting that some people are actually creating hacks to match some of the stories written... But weird is that this creepiness stems from a children's game. Pokemon has got to be one of the most interesting franchises of mankind. From hyped rumors to tier wars, the TV anime to lengthy fanfics and manga, encyclopedias to epic battles and music, glitches to the Pokemon themselves, not to mention Fakemon, and now CreepyPasta...

Well i guess i can give you the fact that it's a childrens game but it certainly isn't a childrens franchise. Anyone who has read the Pokemon manga (or at least the Red/Blue (or Yellow i forget) saga) can tell that from the death and the violent images (mainly the arbok that gets cut in half!) that it wasn't meant for only children.

And also you left out Fridge Horror, because if you actually sit and think about pokemon there is so much negative emotions woven into it. To start with the fact that it has Lavender town, The old chatue (hope i spelt that right :P) the weird tower thing near where you find spiritomb, that island in R/S/E, and not to mention everything that is pointed out in Gary's Raticate creepypatsa.

Well, people don't like him in general, I suppose.

@fenyx4:
Interesting site. I'm currently checking it out.

I think the reason these creepy stories stem out of a game targeted for children is the same as why people keep (trying to) find "subliminal messages" in classic Disney movies. I mean, IMO, it's rather interesting to find something controversial in a product intended for children.

[shininglatios217]

fenyx4: You reminded me of the horrible nightmares I had with Missingno.

By the way, a little thing I should add to the Ancient Mew card creepiness: It says according to another site: "Little God... or Devil". I wonder why the card would call Mew God or even weirder, Devil.

[Silhouette]

EDIT: I'd recommend anyone under the age of 16 NOT to listen to the original Lavender Town Tone. There must be a reason why they changed it.

but anyway, This reminded me of this one also about Lavender Town's music.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MK2iLnTR9V8
Click on Play and then while the music is playing read the comment thing under the video (don't worry you wont miss anything in the video) Then watch the video until its finished, And then finally read the first letter of each paragraph. Scares the crap out of anyone who watches it :P
That really did scare the crap out of me. :O Especially the story. Not necessarily the first letters of each paragraph. And it hurt my head XD

[cyan.]

i started to read some of the pokemon lost silver, and boy did that creep me out. the author is really good. i started to think it wasn't real, until a point where i was for sure it was real, and then i scrolled down and realized it wasn't real.

i never finished it, just watched the youtube video instead, and it was very creepy. hope i can make my own one day.

I would prefer it if mew were the Pokemon god, i've never liked Arceus :P

Well the first letter of each paragraph is just an added extra, it's not meant to e that scary.

Oh you have to read it all, the youtube videos don't do the story justice.


Just to clarify that the reason i'm not updating the Creepypasta archive is because i have ran out of character space in the first post, however i have asked Serene Grace if he can re-open the second post in my name so i can continue to creep all of you out :P

[AceDragonite]

guys remember to come to the MAKE YOUR OWN CREEPYPASTA CONTEST, IT ENDS IN 5 DAYS!!!! http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=229665

Well the Creepypasta contest is over so you can now find the winning entry in the first post.
Hope you enjoy it :D

[Ynfiniti8]

I'm soooooooooo glad I'm reading this in the daytime.

And the Hypno poem didn't seem scary to me at all.

[Inferny]

The Hypno poem was, well, not scary. Neither the Parasect one. I didn't bother to read the Pokemon Green one xD

Pokemon Black was pretty cool. I think I would play it if I got it, actually...That would be so epic, illegal or not...Lost Silver had way too many details...Ew. Disgusting.

Zombie one seemed pretty retarded. I wouldn't like watching a greyscale sprite being eaten by a zombie every time I started my GBA tho xD The winner of the contest, Tarnished Silver was...Scary. Really darned scary. I almsot shat my pants, holy I'm happy I read this in daytime. That said, I've never actually watched a horror movie ever.

Well to be honest the Hypno poem and the parasect one are suppose to be scary, there suppose to be more creepy.
Think about it. Pokemon, a game that is aimed at children contains a Psychic monster able to make you do things against you will that has a thing for children and a giant bug that has been zombiefied by a mind controlling fungus.
I don't think i'ts just me that has chills running up and down my spine when i read something like this.

I'll admit that the part of the 'Buryman Script' where the actual gameboy was altered ruined the story a bit but the rest i found quite chilling when you put it with the rest of Pokemon Tower creepy factors.

I appreciate all of the positive responses I've gotten on Tarnished Silver. Really, especially after I haven't dedicated myself to writing in some time, it feels good to have someone like what I've written.

I've been asked about possibly writing further CreepyPasta, and I am entertaining the idea. It's not priority at this moment, though, and honestly I'm a bit leery, as I'm not certain how I can match/top Tarnished Silver.

My friend who an Admin at another Pokemon forum has been posting a lot of these lately.
All the other one had been said unfortunately....
This was one of his latest:

It all started when I lost my pokewalker for my Pokemon Heart Gold game I was depressed because I had a level 60 dragonite on it. After a few months I decided get a new one. I went on google and tried to find one. After a few minutes I managed to find one for 2$ with free shipping but they wanted the money to be sent directly to the address which seemed a little odd, but I sent it anyway.

It arrived about a week later. When I opened the box I first noticed the pull-out tag was missing, so it was used, but I didn’t care so I pressed the middle button. The screen of the usual pokewalker screen came up, but there was an unknown being walked, so I transferred it to my game. When I did my ds shut off, so I turned it back on. When I started the game it seemed normal but there was no intro which I find enjoyable and I always watch it so I was wondering why it didn’t start, but I just thought it was a glitch so I continued. Next, there was music on the page where they show Ho-oh flying, but I did what I did last time and continued. The next scene where you get the options was missing, so It just put me in the game.

When I started my game was what seemed to be the old gold version for the GBC (gameboy color), and I was in the lighthouse on the bottom floor. I instantly checked my pokemon and they were gone. I put the game down and tried to go back to the website but it was gone, and I located the address on google Earth and it was an empty lot. At this point I was freaking out, but I picked up the game and continued. I tried to exit the lighthouse but the door wasn’t letting me leave instead giving me a message saying “kill them” written in unknown. I checked my player status and everything was at zero and my name was Kill Them. I decided to try to get to the top of the lighthouse. When I went to the next room it was nothing but doors on every wall. I decided to go trough one, and when I went through it there was I painting. I clicked on it and a very detailed picture of Professor Oak shot at least five times laying on his back in a pool of blood. I hit the off switch and turned it back on and the same picture came up, so I had no choice but to continue. I pressed B and the image disappeared, and I left the room. I was greeted once again by the many doors and went in another.

Once again there was a painting and I clicked it, and it showed once again a very detailed picture but this time it was a child maybe 7 hanging from his arms without a shirt with a huge gaping wound and his organs were on the floor, and he was missing his eyes. To add to the horrible scene there was a very faint screaming of a child. I left the room scared to death, and entered another door, the next painting were like the other ones (very detailed), and it was Brock dead in a chair with his head in his lap. That is all I can remember before I left in fear, the next was a child, I couldn’t even tell the gender. It was like all the other child but more disturbing and detailed then the other. This disturbing pattern continued until there were no more doors. When I left room which had a another picture of a child missing all its limbs and organs which were all on the floor in a big pool of blood. After this painful last picture (which was so detailed it looked to be real) I left the room and there was only one door in the room now, so I opened it.

The next room had all paintings and a flight of stairs. I just went up the stairs the next room had a sign and more stairs, and the room was a slight tint of red. I red the sign and it said “Getting closer” written in unknown; I took the stairs. The next room was filled with paintings, had stairs, and was even more redder then the last. Scared, I clicked on one of the paintings. It was like the other children but more detailed and worse. Its entrails were being pulled out by a hand, the hand was covered in blood and organs. I nearly threw up. Every picture was of a child more detailed and worse then the last. The last picture was of a head of a child. It was missing its eyes and it looked like its nose was ripped off, and its mouth was wide open, and its tongue was cut out.

I quickly ran up the stairs. There were two people, Lance and Red (Lance is the pokemon champion of the game, and Red is Ash Ketchum who is the master pokemon trainer who you have to fight at the end of the game in Mt. Silver, for those who didn’t play the game). Lance Walked up to my and we engaged in battle, with no music. I had all my pokemon who I trained to lev 100 so I beat him with no problem, I found it odd that my pokemon who must were not in the game came up and pixilated perfectly and that all the pokemon had double their health. After the battle Lance battled me again. This time he had one pokemon. It said “Lance sent out himself!”. So I battled him and he was a level one and I beat him with one shot. After the battle he fell to the ground and became surrounded by a pool of blood. Then a message written in unknown said “he and his pokemon died”. Then me and Red battled and, all my pokemon were healed so I beat him like I beat Lance with no problem the same thing happened with Red that happened with Lance. After the second message that was the same as the first disappeared, the escape animation played.

Now another message written in unknown said “you killed them no destroy it”. I was confused, but then I remembered the pokewalker. I destroyed it like the game said and flushed the pieces down my toilet and continued (I don’t why I didn’t keep it and show someone, but something was forcing me to. I felt like I had to do it). So after a pressed A the message disappeared and I was back to my Heart Gold game at the Indego league just where I saved and my game was perfectly fine. I tried to tell people but no one believes me, do you

Well i've read this creepypasta and to be honest i found it quite dull and repetitive, so that's one of the main reasons why i haven't put it on this forum. But feel free to post more if you happen to find any :D

Not really a creepypasta but I get the willies even thinking about Chinchou, google what happens to male angler fish...

I would so play this if it were a game
Being someone who isn’t nearly as computer savvy as someone from this generation should be, I know very little about what technology is capable of. Aside from email, IM, and the occasional download of something otherwise unobtainable for me at the moment, I have about the same amount of knowledge an eighty-year-old might possess about the electronic world.

For example, and for the sake of this tale I’m about to recount, I was totally unaware that someone is capable of hacking pokemon games to make their own sub-story of the world, even less so that it was possible to make a physical copy of the game in a real cartridge.

However, I happened to learn about this in one of the most disturbing ways possible.

When I was younger, Pokemon Gold was my very first game from the ever popular franchise. I became very attached to the little creatures my character (named after myself even though the character was male) and often fantasized about the adventures we would go through had a preset storyline not been in place.

That isn’t quite important, though.

Was is important is the fact that I never truly let go of my childhood fantasies, the memories had from that first game were far too cherished to set free. As such, I still have my old Gold game, complete with a total abuse of the copy glitch. I refuse to restart my game though, as I’m afraid too much of the old magic would be lost.

I wanted to play a whole new game of the version that I recall being the happiest with, but older cartridges are rather hard to find outside of the Internet nowadays, the most my local flea markets have are GBA games…hardly any being Pokemon.

Fortunately for me, my grandmother still fully supports my long-standing love for Pokemon and often buys boxes of cards, toys, video tapes and other items she comes across during her frequent visits to local auctions. Granted, very little of these thing she gives me are in good condition; long forgotten items stowed away in a musty basement after the phase in their owner’s life has passed hardly ever are. But, as gifts from a dear relative, I cherish them as if they were made of gold…pun not intended.

Most recently, she gave me a box with a brand new video tape containing episodes from early on in the first season, several hundred battered and well used cards, and a game cartridge with no label.

The cartridge was the familiar metallic gold color of the game I had been looking for. Even though the label had been removed, and a large red ‘X’ drawn in sharpie in the place where the sticker should have been, I could easily tell what it was…what other game had that color? You can imagine my excitement for finally finding another copy! -I hate ordering things online, this was a rather big relief- I thanked her profusely and promised I would play it as soon as I got home, which I did.

Getting started was difficult, not because the game was faulty, but because I had sold my GBA to my little brother several years ago for some of his better pokemon cards…once something belongs to him, it’s difficult to get him to lend it out to me. Such is sibling relations, I suppose.

After much bribery, I finally got my hands on my former GBA and quickly inserted the vandalized game. Chills ran through my body as the opening ‘movie’ for the game began to play, sending a wave of nostalgia crashing over me, it was good to see it again.

The game opened normally, the pixelated image of Ho-oh flying through the sky beneath the title presented itself before leading into the normal selection screen. The person who owned the game before me still had the game on file, but I cared very little for what someone did before me. Considering the condition of their things, they must have been very young. I was bound to be met with a team full of Pikachu with ridiculous names.

I started a new game.

It was here that I realized something wasn’t quite right with the game. The normal intro involving a Professor introducing you to the world of Pokemon didn’t play out. Rather, it went more like this:

It started out with a black screen, which was quite familiar considering that’s how the Gold, Silver, and Crystal games begin. But, instead of the normal ‘What time is it?’ dialogue, I was met with…

………..
……
…
Pokemon are nothing more than tools.
Use them, and throw them away.
……..

The black screen faded away, revealing an empty area at night. It looked familiar; I vaguely remember it being a route in an earlier part of the game, but since I’ve been away from the game for so long, I couldn’t place it.

In the silence of this scene, the sprite of your rival –henceforth noted as Silver- walked in from the left; he moved a little slower than normal as if he were hesitant about something. Once he had moved to the middle of the screen, he stopped and turned back to look at where he came from, turned towards where he was going, and turned back towards where he had came once again.

For a moment, he stood there simply staring towards the left side of the screen before a dialogue box popped up beneath him saying nothing more than “…”. After that, he turned back around yet again, only this time, he continued off to walk off screen.

The scene faded away to be replaced with Silver standing in the place where you first officially see him, just outside Professor Elm’s laboratory. It was clearly in a slightly later part of the game than normal as the professor and his assistants all exited the lab and went their separate ways; the assistants left the town, and Elm walked further downward off screen –which I assume that meant he left for his home and remained in town. The character of Gold was nowhere to be seen.

After that small scene, it stayed on Silver. I thought the game had frozen for a minute, but I finally realized I was able to move him. Honestly I was a little excited, Silver was –and always has been- my favorite of the rivals, it was an interesting thing to be able to play has him.

I moved him a little further downward to see if I was able to explore, but it stopped me each time I moved one step away from the front of the lab. A dialogue box popped up that said, “I can’t leave yet…”, and it backed me up a step. I moved back up to the place he had originally been standing and moved into the window, it worked much like a door as it allowed me to enter Professor Elm’s lab.

Aside from the regular equipment -bookshelves, computers, trashcans, tables, all that- the lab was empty; which was to be expected since the employees had left just a moment ago. On the table was a single pokeball, being without one at the moment, I walked over and took it.

A dialogue box popped up and said ‘Obtained TOTODILE’ but no ‘item get’ music played…apparently, stealing wasn’t condoned even by the game. After pressing ‘A’, it gave me the option of naming the pokemon, I picked ‘yes’ as I love naming these things. As it took me to the naming screen, another dialogue box popped up, interrupting the naming process:

“Don’t name it! You’ll only get attached.
Don’t love it, use it.”

It was clearly the ‘voice’ of the same person who spoke in the very beginning…I found it odd…

The naming screen faded away leaving me in the empty lab, which I quickly tried to leave through the front door, but was stopped by Silver saying, “Not through there…” Again, he backed up and I exited through the window I had come in from.

As if things weren’t strange enough as they were, when I left New Bark Town to begin the adventure and stepped into the grass, it was nearly impossible to get a random battle to start. Normally, I go out of my way to avoid them later on in the game, but during the beginning, it was something I enjoyed to get my pokemon to level up…being unable to find something to fight was a little frustrating.

After several minutes of walking back and forth in patches of grass, I finally encountered a pokemon. A Sentret, nothing out of the ordinary, but when I sent out my Totodile and chose the only presently useful move he had –Scratch-, the pokemon fled. I was rather confused, wild pokemon never ran…not so early in the game. After a few more tries, all with the same outcome, I continued on to Cherrygrove.

Just before I entered the city, I recognized the small area as the one Silver had walked through in the beginning. After entering the city, I bumped into Gold, who wordlessly challenged me to a battle.

His pokemon, a Cyndaquil, was already a slightly higher level than mine (I was still stuck at level five, he was already at level seven) and, even though I had the type advantage, he beat me. Before whiting out, his sprite switched out with the Cyndaquil’s…he looked disappointed.

After exiting the Cherrygrove Pokemon Center –I hadn’t used it prior, but it was apparently the only option I had-, I walked back to the place he had challenged me only to find I was unable to battle him at this point again.

The game was getting a little annoying by now, I had no money, pokegear, or pokedex, and I was unable to battle wild pokemon. Fortunately, once I entered Route 30 onward, there were other pokemon trainers in which I could battle and easily beat…though none of them seemed eager to speak to me after I had won.

By the time I entered Violet City, my pokemon’s level was still too low to take on the gym leader. But with the money I had won from the trainers I fought before, I was at least able to buy some potions, so I felt I was set.

The lesser trainers of the gym were easy enough, I was only forced to use two of my previously purchased potions and I leveled up once. Though, as I took on the gym leader, he proved to me too much and I lost yet again. Upon winning, he did the very same thing Gold had done…and he looked disappointed as well.

When the battle ended, I didn’t white out, rather I had to endure a lecture about treating pokemon correctly from the leader. Once he finished speaking, I received a one-worded option: ‘Steal?’

I chose the only option given to me, ‘Yes’.

Silver backed up one step and slammed into the gym leader, kicking him backwards. Another dialogue box popped up telling me that I had stolen the gym badge, TM31, and $500.

After that, I whited out.

This is how it continued on for the remainder of the game, while I was able to defeat lesser trainers on the paths to cities and in the gyms, I constantly lost to the leader and was forced to steal their badges. The ‘steal’ option also worked on people who would normally give you items in the game, this is how I was able to obtain key items such as the Itemfinder, the bicycle, the water pail, HMs, and many more…They refused to give me anything otherwise.

Anyone I spoke to either refused to talk, greeting me only with “…” or lectured me a little on how to properly treat pokemon…it was beginning to get that way with Nurse Joy as well. By the time I had progressed to Goldenrod City, anytime I whited out, she’d scold me.

Pokemon continued to avoid me as well, if I wanted to better my team I had to hope that the pokeballs I used worked the first time. What was stranger about random battles is that, even if I locked the pokemon in battle with Mean Look, the pokemon passed out. Literally. After my first attack of Mean Look –If I got to the first attack that is, sometimes the pokemon had a higher speed than mine-, before I was able to choose another, the pokemon would faint on its own.

The dialogue box proclaimed, “-POKEMON- forced itself to pass out!” and the battle ended.

The only thing that seemed to go normally for me was the battles with Team Rocket. I always won against them and they always treated me like a punk kid getting in their way.

The rest of the game up until a certain point isn’t entirely important. Aside from win, lose, and steal, everything was more or less normal. While my pokemon matured slowly due to frequent losses, they did grow to like me a little as I began giving them haircuts and other little things to boost our bond. The last I had checked, the person who rated their happiness –one of the very few people who spoke to me normally- said “It’s quite cute.”
I know you must be thinking that this isn’t disturbing at all, that I should just accept the fact that this is simply a hack made to tell Silver’s side of the story…Well, I did and it was, but I’m not quite finished yet.

Once I had finally made it to Kanto -continuing the process of win, lose, and steal-, I ventured into Viridian City. The second I stepped foot into the city, the music cut off. I thought for certain that this was simply a glitch in the programming, that I was now to walk through a soundless game. But as a stood there for a moment, a very faint noise picked up and faded away.

I was now sure that the music had messed up, like it was trying to play, but couldn’t. But as I stepped back into the route I had just come from, the music picked up perfectly…it was only Viridian City that was silent.

I was now curious, so I stepped back into the silent city and began to explore. There wasn’t a person in site…No one out in the open, no one in the houses, not even anyone in the in the Pokemart or Pokemon Center. The city was entirely empty…just the silence and the occasional soft noise which I still hadn’t identified.

As I walked towards the gym, the sound grew a little louder. I figured the noise was coming from the inside, so I entered. There was no one there either, but that was to be expected, the gym was always empty until much later.

The noise didn’t play in here, but it was still dead silent.

I walked up to where the gym leader normally stood and, as I walked past the spot and into the brink wall –I do that sometimes, I like the noise- I was transported to another room…the wall had hidden a set of stairs.
This place was silent as well…but the noise began to play yet again. It was much louder this time, just a bunch of random, high-pitched noises…but it sounded like screams.

By this time, as you could well imagine, my heart was pounding…I don’t take screaming –or things that sound like screaming- very well due to an unfortunate experience with a very graphic haunted house when I was three years old…but I digress.

Regardless of my pounding heart and shaking hands, I explored the room…which was tinted in a muted red much like everything was in Pokemon Red. The room followed a sideways zigzag pattern and the ‘screams’ came at random, some short, some long and drawn out…it sounded as if someone was being tortured.

As I continued down the zigzagging hallways, I came across several disturbing images; sprites of NPCs without their heads, as well as heads without bodies. Anytime I tried to examine the bodies, Silver simply said “Don’t look…”

The bodies and heads became more frequent as I went on, clogging up the hallways and leaving only a small path for me to follow…and the screaming became more frequent.

The screen began to flicker as I walked, just like it would if one of my pokemon was poisoned…but none of them were. Just in case, I checked the status of my party. None of them were poisoned, but their health was going down. In an attempt to heal them, I picked a super potion out of my bag and used it on my Feralligator.

A dialogue box popped up and said “It won’t have any effect.”

Now I was disturbed, I knew none of this was supposed to happen. Regardless, I continued on, hoping that if they all fainted from this, I’d be taken back to a pokemon center and things would return to normal.

…It was stupid of me to assume that…

I continued along the morbid path, the screen flickering in and out. Finally, Silver stopped as the dialogue box popped up telling me that all my pokemon had fainted…but it didn’t say what I had hoped…

It said ‘ALL DEAD’.

By now, I was read to cry, but I couldn’t stop myself from trying to get to the end of this disturbing experience…if I didn’t do this now, I’d just be tempted to try it again some other time…

Finally, I reached the center room, which was now tinted a deep red…I assumed this was to simulate the fact that the room was filled with blood, however there were only a few bodies scattered around it. In the center, there were a few live figures, a man, a pokemon, Gold, and another pokemon I could only assumed was his Typhlosion.

Gold’s Typhlosion attacked the man’s pokemon, but it was quickly struck down, its sprite first turning red, then grey, then disappearing…the man’s pokemon had killed it.

Silver’s sprite stepped forward on its own and the man finally acknowledged he was there.

GIOVANNI: Ah, son, you’ve made it. Come to see your rival’s demise, have you?

This caused Gold to turn around to look at you; the only thing he said was “…”

Silver continued to move on his own; he approached the man and kicked him backwards…Which obviously enraged Giovanni.

GIOVANNI: You’re going to help him? HA! You’ve become just as weak as the others! If he seems worth saving to you…perhaps I should show you that there’s no sense in getting attached! MEWTWO, take care of him!

Mewtwo obeyed his creator’s command and approached Gold. I’m still uncertain of what it actually did, but it struck Gold, causing a scream much louder than before as the sprite of Silver’s rival lost its head and faded to deep red to grey.

GIOVANNI: I told you long ago, Silver, Pokemon are nothing more than tools! People are as well. Use them and throw them away once they’ve server your purpose. MEWTWO, kill him!

The Mewtwo didn’t obey this time; Giovanni’s words must have angered it. It turned to him and actually spoke.

MEWTWO: …You’re no longer useful…

It struck Giovanni just as it had done Gold and Typhlosion, but the scream Giovanni produced was much longer than any other I had heard…Mewtwo was torturing him.

Finally, the scream faded away into nothingness and Giovanni’s sprite did just as Gold’s did…leaving only Silver and Mewtwo alive in the room. As Mewtwo turned to face me, I knew that wouldn’t last for long.

MEWTWO: …Not useful…

It struck me, initiating a battle in which I was totally unable to participate. My sprite was in the place of any pokemon, my health was full, but I knew it wouldn’t help. I chose to run, but I couldn’t…I chose to attack, but I had nothing to use…I just had to stand there as Mewtwo used Psychic on Silver’s defenseless image.

Even with the sound turned to a low level, the ‘scream’ coming from Silver was disturbingly loud. Even as the battle screen faded away, the scream lingered until Silver’s sprite turned from red to grey – which I now assume symbolizes the coldness of death-…Silver, along with Gold and everyone else who had been unfortunate enough to wander into this place from Viridian, was now dead.

The screen faded to black, all except for Mewtwo’s sprite, which remain in the center of the screen. My paranoid mind immediately made me think he was somehow going to turn on me next, but the word ‘END’ simply faded in just underneath him and the screen cut to black, taking me back to the opening sequence.

I’m still unsure why this was made, why someone just shoved it into a box to sell, and why I happened to find it…But I can assure you that I’m swearing off all randomly found games…either it’s new, or I’ll never risk touching it again.

The game I just described has slipped out of my possession since that first play through…I have no idea where it is, but I hope it’s rotting in a dump somewhere.

Skulls of The Pyre
In the region of Hoenn, there is no pokemon tower. No organized resting place for the bodies, graves and ghosts of the deceased.
There is Mount Pyre. An entire mountain, that serves as one massive, chaotic gravesite for the region. It’s tempting to go there, test your wits and see if you can get through it. By all means, go, take the risk. But here’s a word of warning;
If you see a skull, just a skull, be it floating in the air or resting on the ground. Turn away from it and flee, as quietly as you can, dont let it see you and don’t let it hear you.
Duskull are everywhere, and if you look into the sockets of it’s skull you’ll see it’s red eyes, it’s casting hypnosis, try not to fall asleep. If you do fall asleep, try and wake yourself up as quickly as possible. You’ll be able to feel it, the darkness that surrounds a duskull, taking shape and wrapping around you. Try and wake yourself up, fast. You might only be wrapped up to the knees, that’s okay, you can live without lower legs. If you sleep through this, there’s no hope.
If it hasn’t wrapped up your arms, and you can move them, reach up to your face. The skull will have attached itself there, pull it off. Really pull at it, they’re stubborn. If it wont come off, and you still have use of your arms, grab a rock and smash the skull off your head. Use a lot of force, it’s going to hurt, but it will save you…if it works.
If your arms become tangled up in the black bandages you might aswell smash your head on the rocks, try to crack the skull off the outside of your face.
If you do get it off, and you still have some ability to move, leave as fast as you can and go to a hospital, your limbs may be useless but at least you got away!
If you can’t get it off, the duskull will wrap you in its bandages entirely. They wrap around your chest all too tightly and restrict your breathing, they wrap around your neck and choke you, they even wrap around your head and around the skull ontop of your head, covering your mouth and nose.

It has contoll now, there’s no point in struggling anymore. Don’t worry, you won’t die. No, you won’t ever die, you’ll be strangled by the bandages as they press down on your chest and tighten at your neck. The new Dusklops simply uses your body as its own physical form.

Helping a pokemon to evolve is a noble thing to do after all, so maybe it’s not all bad. With the air flow to your brain restricted, you’ll start to lose brain functionality anyway. Eventually you won’t even remember you were human.

A few years ago, after I had lost my Pokemon Red Version, I decided it would be a good idea to buy a new cartridge. After looking around for a few days on the internet and in used games stores, I found one on this site that I don’t remember the name of. it was cheap, only $1 USD, so I decided to get it, since if it didn’t work, I only wasted a dollar.

I ordered it, and then went to sleep that night. I had a very strange dream that night, I don’t remember much of it, but I remember something about the game that I had ordered. I seem to remember it to be a scary dream, but I could be remembering it wrong.

I waited and I waited for the game to come. I eventually decided that it wouldn’t be coming, so he stole a dollar from me, what’s that good for nowadays?

Then, the next day, after two whole months, the game finally came.

At first, I didn’t know what it was, it was in a plain white box, completely unmarked. No address or return address, so I wondered how the delivery guy knew to come to my house. I opened the box, and saw the game inside.

The cartridge was completely blank, but I suspected this to rowdy kids, as I did it to a few of my games when I was younger. I decided to try it out right away, and went to get my Game Boy, and put the game inside.

The main menu came up like normal, and I saw there was a saved game. Strangely, it was my name that was on it, but I just thought that the person must have had the same name as me.

As the game loaded, I noticed that it was at the very beginning of the game, which was strange, since it looked like the player had not taken a single step. I went downstairs as normal, and when I talked to the mother, I noticed that she had a name, which is strange in itself considering the fact that in Pokemon games, they don’t give your mother a name.

Stranger yet, however, was the fact that her name was the same as my real mother’s.

It was here I realized this was a hack, but thought that it might be a “good hack,” and that the names were simply coincidences.

After this, I did the game as normal, going into the grass above Pallet Town, but instead of seeing “Oak” in the textbox, I saw the name of my grandfather.

as I saw this, I was starting to get freeaked out. But stuff like this can happen. After we got to the lab, and “Blue” started talking, in the textbox, the name listed was the name of my brother.

I was starting to get very freaked out by now, but I decided to play the game normally. Everything was the same, except for the names. Everyone that was named had the name of one of my family members or friends.

I eventually got to the Elite 4, and this is when it started getting weird. Replacing Lorelei was my principle in 5th grade. Replacing Bruno was my former boss that had fired me. Replacing Agatha was a nanny from my childhood, and replacing Lance was a boss of the place I had just been fired from a week before.

Then, after defeating my “brother”, instead of the typical Hall of Fame Scene, the room went black.

Then, a textbox appeared.

“MYSTERIOUS VOICE: THANKYOUFORYOURCOOPERATION

IHAVEBEENWAITINGFORALONGTIME

YOURLIFEBELONGSTOMENOW”

When this came up, I was very skeptical. I waited for the game to save, then I turned it off.

The next day, I had some very important things to do, which would cost a lot of money. I called the bank to see what the balance was on my credit card.

As I talked to the lady on the phone, she said that the account had recently been canceled. I told her that I did not do this, and she replied that I had indeed done it just the day before.

I thought that this was very strange, and did not rest easy that day.

After a while, I decided to call my mother. She answered the phone very questioningly, even though she had caller ID. She asked who I was, and I told her it was me.

What she said next was very heartbreaking to me. She said that I couldn’t be her son, because “he” was visiting her right at the moment.

I thought her memory was fading, so I called my brother. He answers his phone without looking at caller ID, so I said that it was me. He asked if I was calling to rub it in.

This got me curious, so I ask him what he meant. He laughed sarcastically and said that we got in a fistfight the day before and that I had won, giving him a black eye and a brooken nose.

I hung up the phone without saying goodbye, and decided to get some rest.

When I woke up the next day, I remembered everything that had happened, and decided that my name was useless, so I should change it. So now I have no family, a different name, and complete wonder over what is happening to my family.

[Hybrid Trainer]

Not really a creepypasta but I get the willies even thinking about Chinchou, google what happens to male angler fish...
Aww, i feel so sorry for those cute little chinchou :(

I personally didn't find it really scaring since it wasn't convincing. But I did find a few more though sorry If they already have been posted

I would so play this if it were a game
Being someone who isn’t nearly as computer savvy as someone from this generation should be, I know very little about what technology is capable of. Aside from email, IM, and the occasional download of something otherwise unobtainable for me at the moment, I have about the same amount of knowledge an eighty-year-old might possess about the electronic world.

For example, and for the sake of this tale I’m about to recount, I was totally unaware that someone is capable of hacking pokemon games to make their own sub-story of the world, even less so that it was possible to make a physical copy of the game in a real cartridge.

However, I happened to learn about this in one of the most disturbing ways possible.

When I was younger, Pokemon Gold was my very first game from the ever popular franchise. I became very attached to the little creatures my character (named after myself even though the character was male) and often fantasized about the adventures we would go through had a preset storyline not been in place.

That isn’t quite important, though.

Was is important is the fact that I never truly let go of my childhood fantasies, the memories had from that first game were far too cherished to set free. As such, I still have my old Gold game, complete with a total abuse of the copy glitch. I refuse to restart my game though, as I’m afraid too much of the old magic would be lost.

I wanted to play a whole new game of the version that I recall being the happiest with, but older cartridges are rather hard to find outside of the Internet nowadays, the most my local flea markets have are GBA games…hardly any being Pokemon.

Fortunately for me, my grandmother still fully supports my long-standing love for Pokemon and often buys boxes of cards, toys, video tapes and other items she comes across during her frequent visits to local auctions. Granted, very little of these thing she gives me are in good condition; long forgotten items stowed away in a musty basement after the phase in their owner’s life has passed hardly ever are. But, as gifts from a dear relative, I cherish them as if they were made of gold…pun not intended.

Most recently, she gave me a box with a brand new video tape containing episodes from early on in the first season, several hundred battered and well used cards, and a game cartridge with no label.

The cartridge was the familiar metallic gold color of the game I had been looking for. Even though the label had been removed, and a large red ‘X’ drawn in sharpie in the place where the sticker should have been, I could easily tell what it was…what other game had that color? You can imagine my excitement for finally finding another copy! -I hate ordering things online, this was a rather big relief- I thanked her profusely and promised I would play it as soon as I got home, which I did.

Getting started was difficult, not because the game was faulty, but because I had sold my GBA to my little brother several years ago for some of his better pokemon cards…once something belongs to him, it’s difficult to get him to lend it out to me. Such is sibling relations, I suppose.

After much bribery, I finally got my hands on my former GBA and quickly inserted the vandalized game. Chills ran through my body as the opening ‘movie’ for the game began to play, sending a wave of nostalgia crashing over me, it was good to see it again.

The game opened normally, the pixelated image of Ho-oh flying through the sky beneath the title presented itself before leading into the normal selection screen. The person who owned the game before me still had the game on file, but I cared very little for what someone did before me. Considering the condition of their things, they must have been very young. I was bound to be met with a team full of Pikachu with ridiculous names.

I started a new game.

It was here that I realized something wasn’t quite right with the game. The normal intro involving a Professor introducing you to the world of Pokemon didn’t play out. Rather, it went more like this:

It started out with a black screen, which was quite familiar considering that’s how the Gold, Silver, and Crystal games begin. But, instead of the normal ‘What time is it?’ dialogue, I was met with…

………..
……
…
Pokemon are nothing more than tools.
Use them, and throw them away.
……..

The black screen faded away, revealing an empty area at night. It looked familiar; I vaguely remember it being a route in an earlier part of the game, but since I’ve been away from the game for so long, I couldn’t place it.

In the silence of this scene, the sprite of your rival –henceforth noted as Silver- walked in from the left; he moved a little slower than normal as if he were hesitant about something. Once he had moved to the middle of the screen, he stopped and turned back to look at where he came from, turned towards where he was going, and turned back towards where he had came once again.

For a moment, he stood there simply staring towards the left side of the screen before a dialogue box popped up beneath him saying nothing more than “…”. After that, he turned back around yet again, only this time, he continued off to walk off screen.

The scene faded away to be replaced with Silver standing in the place where you first officially see him, just outside Professor Elm’s laboratory. It was clearly in a slightly later part of the game than normal as the professor and his assistants all exited the lab and went their separate ways; the assistants left the town, and Elm walked further downward off screen –which I assume that meant he left for his home and remained in town. The character of Gold was nowhere to be seen.

After that small scene, it stayed on Silver. I thought the game had frozen for a minute, but I finally realized I was able to move him. Honestly I was a little excited, Silver was –and always has been- my favorite of the rivals, it was an interesting thing to be able to play has him.

I moved him a little further downward to see if I was able to explore, but it stopped me each time I moved one step away from the front of the lab. A dialogue box popped up that said, “I can’t leave yet…”, and it backed me up a step. I moved back up to the place he had originally been standing and moved into the window, it worked much like a door as it allowed me to enter Professor Elm’s lab.

Aside from the regular equipment -bookshelves, computers, trashcans, tables, all that- the lab was empty; which was to be expected since the employees had left just a moment ago. On the table was a single pokeball, being without one at the moment, I walked over and took it.

A dialogue box popped up and said ‘Obtained TOTODILE’ but no ‘item get’ music played…apparently, stealing wasn’t condoned even by the game. After pressing ‘A’, it gave me the option of naming the pokemon, I picked ‘yes’ as I love naming these things. As it took me to the naming screen, another dialogue box popped up, interrupting the naming process:

“Don’t name it! You’ll only get attached.
Don’t love it, use it.”

It was clearly the ‘voice’ of the same person who spoke in the very beginning…I found it odd…

The naming screen faded away leaving me in the empty lab, which I quickly tried to leave through the front door, but was stopped by Silver saying, “Not through there…” Again, he backed up and I exited through the window I had come in from.

As if things weren’t strange enough as they were, when I left New Bark Town to begin the adventure and stepped into the grass, it was nearly impossible to get a random battle to start. Normally, I go out of my way to avoid them later on in the game, but during the beginning, it was something I enjoyed to get my pokemon to level up…being unable to find something to fight was a little frustrating.

After several minutes of walking back and forth in patches of grass, I finally encountered a pokemon. A Sentret, nothing out of the ordinary, but when I sent out my Totodile and chose the only presently useful move he had –Scratch-, the pokemon fled. I was rather confused, wild pokemon never ran…not so early in the game. After a few more tries, all with the same outcome, I continued on to Cherrygrove.

Just before I entered the city, I recognized the small area as the one Silver had walked through in the beginning. After entering the city, I bumped into Gold, who wordlessly challenged me to a battle.

His pokemon, a Cyndaquil, was already a slightly higher level than mine (I was still stuck at level five, he was already at level seven) and, even though I had the type advantage, he beat me. Before whiting out, his sprite switched out with the Cyndaquil’s…he looked disappointed.

After exiting the Cherrygrove Pokemon Center –I hadn’t used it prior, but it was apparently the only option I had-, I walked back to the place he had challenged me only to find I was unable to battle him at this point again.

The game was getting a little annoying by now, I had no money, pokegear, or pokedex, and I was unable to battle wild pokemon. Fortunately, once I entered Route 30 onward, there were other pokemon trainers in which I could battle and easily beat…though none of them seemed eager to speak to me after I had won.

By the time I entered Violet City, my pokemon’s level was still too low to take on the gym leader. But with the money I had won from the trainers I fought before, I was at least able to buy some potions, so I felt I was set.

The lesser trainers of the gym were easy enough, I was only forced to use two of my previously purchased potions and I leveled up once. Though, as I took on the gym leader, he proved to me too much and I lost yet again. Upon winning, he did the very same thing Gold had done…and he looked disappointed as well.

When the battle ended, I didn’t white out, rather I had to endure a lecture about treating pokemon correctly from the leader. Once he finished speaking, I received a one-worded option: ‘Steal?’

I chose the only option given to me, ‘Yes’.

Silver backed up one step and slammed into the gym leader, kicking him backwards. Another dialogue box popped up telling me that I had stolen the gym badge, TM31, and $500.

After that, I whited out.

This is how it continued on for the remainder of the game, while I was able to defeat lesser trainers on the paths to cities and in the gyms, I constantly lost to the leader and was forced to steal their badges. The ‘steal’ option also worked on people who would normally give you items in the game, this is how I was able to obtain key items such as the Itemfinder, the bicycle, the water pail, HMs, and many more…They refused to give me anything otherwise.

Anyone I spoke to either refused to talk, greeting me only with “…” or lectured me a little on how to properly treat pokemon…it was beginning to get that way with Nurse Joy as well. By the time I had progressed to Goldenrod City, anytime I whited out, she’d scold me.

Pokemon continued to avoid me as well, if I wanted to better my team I had to hope that the pokeballs I used worked the first time. What was stranger about random battles is that, even if I locked the pokemon in battle with Mean Look, the pokemon passed out. Literally. After my first attack of Mean Look –If I got to the first attack that is, sometimes the pokemon had a higher speed than mine-, before I was able to choose another, the pokemon would faint on its own.

The dialogue box proclaimed, “-POKEMON- forced itself to pass out!” and the battle ended.

The only thing that seemed to go normally for me was the battles with Team Rocket. I always won against them and they always treated me like a punk kid getting in their way.

The rest of the game up until a certain point isn’t entirely important. Aside from win, lose, and steal, everything was more or less normal. While my pokemon matured slowly due to frequent losses, they did grow to like me a little as I began giving them haircuts and other little things to boost our bond. The last I had checked, the person who rated their happiness –one of the very few people who spoke to me normally- said “It’s quite cute.”
I know you must be thinking that this isn’t disturbing at all, that I should just accept the fact that this is simply a hack made to tell Silver’s side of the story…Well, I did and it was, but I’m not quite finished yet.

Once I had finally made it to Kanto -continuing the process of win, lose, and steal-, I ventured into Viridian City. The second I stepped foot into the city, the music cut off. I thought for certain that this was simply a glitch in the programming, that I was now to walk through a soundless game. But as a stood there for a moment, a very faint noise picked up and faded away.

I was now sure that the music had messed up, like it was trying to play, but couldn’t. But as I stepped back into the route I had just come from, the music picked up perfectly…it was only Viridian City that was silent.

I was now curious, so I stepped back into the silent city and began to explore. There wasn’t a person in site…No one out in the open, no one in the houses, not even anyone in the in the Pokemart or Pokemon Center. The city was entirely empty…just the silence and the occasional soft noise which I still hadn’t identified.

As I walked towards the gym, the sound grew a little louder. I figured the noise was coming from the inside, so I entered. There was no one there either, but that was to be expected, the gym was always empty until much later.

The noise didn’t play in here, but it was still dead silent.

I walked up to where the gym leader normally stood and, as I walked past the spot and into the brink wall –I do that sometimes, I like the noise- I was transported to another room…the wall had hidden a set of stairs.
This place was silent as well…but the noise began to play yet again. It was much louder this time, just a bunch of random, high-pitched noises…but it sounded like screams.

By this time, as you could well imagine, my heart was pounding…I don’t take screaming –or things that sound like screaming- very well due to an unfortunate experience with a very graphic haunted house when I was three years old…but I digress.

Regardless of my pounding heart and shaking hands, I explored the room…which was tinted in a muted red much like everything was in Pokemon Red. The room followed a sideways zigzag pattern and the ‘screams’ came at random, some short, some long and drawn out…it sounded as if someone was being tortured.

As I continued down the zigzagging hallways, I came across several disturbing images; sprites of NPCs without their heads, as well as heads without bodies. Anytime I tried to examine the bodies, Silver simply said “Don’t look…”

The bodies and heads became more frequent as I went on, clogging up the hallways and leaving only a small path for me to follow…and the screaming became more frequent.

The screen began to flicker as I walked, just like it would if one of my pokemon was poisoned…but none of them were. Just in case, I checked the status of my party. None of them were poisoned, but their health was going down. In an attempt to heal them, I picked a super potion out of my bag and used it on my Feralligator.

A dialogue box popped up and said “It won’t have any effect.”

Now I was disturbed, I knew none of this was supposed to happen. Regardless, I continued on, hoping that if they all fainted from this, I’d be taken back to a pokemon center and things would return to normal.

…It was stupid of me to assume that…

I continued along the morbid path, the screen flickering in and out. Finally, Silver stopped as the dialogue box popped up telling me that all my pokemon had fainted…but it didn’t say what I had hoped…

It said ‘ALL DEAD’.

By now, I was read to cry, but I couldn’t stop myself from trying to get to the end of this disturbing experience…if I didn’t do this now, I’d just be tempted to try it again some other time…

Finally, I reached the center room, which was now tinted a deep red…I assumed this was to simulate the fact that the room was filled with blood, however there were only a few bodies scattered around it. In the center, there were a few live figures, a man, a pokemon, Gold, and another pokemon I could only assumed was his Typhlosion.

Gold’s Typhlosion attacked the man’s pokemon, but it was quickly struck down, its sprite first turning red, then grey, then disappearing…the man’s pokemon had killed it.

Silver’s sprite stepped forward on its own and the man finally acknowledged he was there.

GIOVANNI: Ah, son, you’ve made it. Come to see your rival’s demise, have you?

This caused Gold to turn around to look at you; the only thing he said was “…”

Silver continued to move on his own; he approached the man and kicked him backwards…Which obviously enraged Giovanni.

GIOVANNI: You’re going to help him? HA! You’ve become just as weak as the others! If he seems worth saving to you…perhaps I should show you that there’s no sense in getting attached! MEWTWO, take care of him!

Mewtwo obeyed his creator’s command and approached Gold. I’m still uncertain of what it actually did, but it struck Gold, causing a scream much louder than before as the sprite of Silver’s rival lost its head and faded to deep red to grey.

GIOVANNI: I told you long ago, Silver, Pokemon are nothing more than tools! People are as well. Use them and throw them away once they’ve server your purpose. MEWTWO, kill him!

The Mewtwo didn’t obey this time; Giovanni’s words must have angered it. It turned to him and actually spoke.

MEWTWO: …You’re no longer useful…

It struck Giovanni just as it had done Gold and Typhlosion, but the scream Giovanni produced was much longer than any other I had heard…Mewtwo was torturing him.

Finally, the scream faded away into nothingness and Giovanni’s sprite did just as Gold’s did…leaving only Silver and Mewtwo alive in the room. As Mewtwo turned to face me, I knew that wouldn’t last for long.

MEWTWO: …Not useful…

It struck me, initiating a battle in which I was totally unable to participate. My sprite was in the place of any pokemon, my health was full, but I knew it wouldn’t help. I chose to run, but I couldn’t…I chose to attack, but I had nothing to use…I just had to stand there as Mewtwo used Psychic on Silver’s defenseless image.

Even with the sound turned to a low level, the ‘scream’ coming from Silver was disturbingly loud. Even as the battle screen faded away, the scream lingered until Silver’s sprite turned from red to grey – which I now assume symbolizes the coldness of death-…Silver, along with Gold and everyone else who had been unfortunate enough to wander into this place from Viridian, was now dead.

The screen faded to black, all except for Mewtwo’s sprite, which remain in the center of the screen. My paranoid mind immediately made me think he was somehow going to turn on me next, but the word ‘END’ simply faded in just underneath him and the screen cut to black, taking me back to the opening sequence.

I’m still unsure why this was made, why someone just shoved it into a box to sell, and why I happened to find it…But I can assure you that I’m swearing off all randomly found games…either it’s new, or I’ll never risk touching it again.

The game I just described has slipped out of my possession since that first play through…I have no idea where it is, but I hope it’s rotting in a dump somewhere.

Skulls of The Pyre
In the region of Hoenn, there is no pokemon tower. No organized resting place for the bodies, graves and ghosts of the deceased.
There is Mount Pyre. An entire mountain, that serves as one massive, chaotic gravesite for the region. It’s tempting to go there, test your wits and see if you can get through it. By all means, go, take the risk. But here’s a word of warning;
If you see a skull, just a skull, be it floating in the air or resting on the ground. Turn away from it and flee, as quietly as you can, dont let it see you and don’t let it hear you.
Duskull are everywhere, and if you look into the sockets of it’s skull you’ll see it’s red eyes, it’s casting hypnosis, try not to fall asleep. If you do fall asleep, try and wake yourself up as quickly as possible. You’ll be able to feel it, the darkness that surrounds a duskull, taking shape and wrapping around you. Try and wake yourself up, fast. You might only be wrapped up to the knees, that’s okay, you can live without lower legs. If you sleep through this, there’s no hope.
If it hasn’t wrapped up your arms, and you can move them, reach up to your face. The skull will have attached itself there, pull it off. Really pull at it, they’re stubborn. If it wont come off, and you still have use of your arms, grab a rock and smash the skull off your head. Use a lot of force, it’s going to hurt, but it will save you…if it works.
If your arms become tangled up in the black bandages you might aswell smash your head on the rocks, try to crack the skull off the outside of your face.
If you do get it off, and you still have some ability to move, leave as fast as you can and go to a hospital, your limbs may be useless but at least you got away!
If you can’t get it off, the duskull will wrap you in its bandages entirely. They wrap around your chest all too tightly and restrict your breathing, they wrap around your neck and choke you, they even wrap around your head and around the skull ontop of your head, covering your mouth and nose.

It has contoll now, there’s no point in struggling anymore. Don’t worry, you won’t die. No, you won’t ever die, you’ll be strangled by the bandages as they press down on your chest and tighten at your neck. The new Dusklops simply uses your body as its own physical form.

Helping a pokemon to evolve is a noble thing to do after all, so maybe it’s not all bad. With the air flow to your brain restricted, you’ll start to lose brain functionality anyway. Eventually you won’t even remember you were human.

A few years ago, after I had lost my Pokemon Red Version, I decided it would be a good idea to buy a new cartridge. After looking around for a few days on the internet and in used games stores, I found one on this site that I don’t remember the name of. it was cheap, only $1 USD, so I decided to get it, since if it didn’t work, I only wasted a dollar.

I ordered it, and then went to sleep that night. I had a very strange dream that night, I don’t remember much of it, but I remember something about the game that I had ordered. I seem to remember it to be a scary dream, but I could be remembering it wrong.

I waited and I waited for the game to come. I eventually decided that it wouldn’t be coming, so he stole a dollar from me, what’s that good for nowadays?

Then, the next day, after two whole months, the game finally came.

At first, I didn’t know what it was, it was in a plain white box, completely unmarked. No address or return address, so I wondered how the delivery guy knew to come to my house. I opened the box, and saw the game inside.

The cartridge was completely blank, but I suspected this to rowdy kids, as I did it to a few of my games when I was younger. I decided to try it out right away, and went to get my Game Boy, and put the game inside.

The main menu came up like normal, and I saw there was a saved game. Strangely, it was my name that was on it, but I just thought that the person must have had the same name as me.

As the game loaded, I noticed that it was at the very beginning of the game, which was strange, since it looked like the player had not taken a single step. I went downstairs as normal, and when I talked to the mother, I noticed that she had a name, which is strange in itself considering the fact that in Pokemon games, they don’t give your mother a name.

Stranger yet, however, was the fact that her name was the same as my real mother’s.

It was here I realized this was a hack, but thought that it might be a “good hack,” and that the names were simply coincidences.

After this, I did the game as normal, going into the grass above Pallet Town, but instead of seeing “Oak” in the textbox, I saw the name of my grandfather.

as I saw this, I was starting to get freeaked out. But stuff like this can happen. After we got to the lab, and “Blue” started talking, in the textbox, the name listed was the name of my brother.

I was starting to get very freaked out by now, but I decided to play the game normally. Everything was the same, except for the names. Everyone that was named had the name of one of my family members or friends.

I eventually got to the Elite 4, and this is when it started getting weird. Replacing Lorelei was my principle in 5th grade. Replacing Bruno was my former boss that had fired me. Replacing Agatha was a nanny from my childhood, and replacing Lance was a boss of the place I had just been fired from a week before.

Then, after defeating my “brother”, instead of the typical Hall of Fame Scene, the room went black.

Then, a textbox appeared.

“MYSTERIOUS VOICE: THANKYOUFORYOURCOOPERATION

IHAVEBEENWAITINGFORALONGTIME

YOURLIFEBELONGSTOMENOW”

When this came up, I was very skeptical. I waited for the game to save, then I turned it off.

The next day, I had some very important things to do, which would cost a lot of money. I called the bank to see what the balance was on my credit card.

As I talked to the lady on the phone, she said that the account had recently been canceled. I told her that I did not do this, and she replied that I had indeed done it just the day before.

I thought that this was very strange, and did not rest easy that day.

After a while, I decided to call my mother. She answered the phone very questioningly, even though she had caller ID. She asked who I was, and I told her it was me.

What she said next was very heartbreaking to me. She said that I couldn’t be her son, because “he” was visiting her right at the moment.

I thought her memory was fading, so I called my brother. He answers his phone without looking at caller ID, so I said that it was me. He asked if I was calling to rub it in.

This got me curious, so I ask him what he meant. He laughed sarcastically and said that we got in a fistfight the day before and that I had won, giving him a black eye and a brooken nose.

I hung up the phone without saying goodbye, and decided to get some rest.

When I woke up the next day, I remembered everything that had happened, and decided that my name was useless, so I should change it. So now I have no family, a different name, and complete wonder over what is happening to my family.
I've read the first one but i hadn't posted it here. It's a great story that would make a great hack. I like to think of it as the Gen II's Pokemon Creepy Black :P And btw thats the wrong picture for that story XD

And the last one i have never really liked. Sorry.

Yea I noticed that just now lolz, and you mean on the site? Idk anyone can post there so I'm not sure

[Hybrid Trainer]

Well i guess so, it's just a bit weird that the best one isnt posted there :/

And I've just thought of something.
Its stated in nearly all Pokedex entry's that chanseys eggs are delicious and are a rare treat to be eaten.
And example is Pokemon Emeralds Dex entry:
Chansey lay nutritionally excellent eggs every day. The eggs are so delicious, they are eagerly devoured by even those people who have lost their appetite.
But when you think about it, what is it that's inside those chansey eggs???




And for those who cant be bothered working it out:

Ah! I wasn't aware that there were more Pokemon Creepypastas circulating around. The only one that I have read was the Pokemon Black version one. I'm actually going to read the other creepypastas later because it's 3 in the morning, if you understand.

There's actually a visual guide for your DS (http://kotaku.com/5619302/creepy-pokemon-story-now-a-visual-novel-for-the-ds) of the Pokemon Black version. It must be a pretty popular Pokemon creepypasta to get something like that, even if it is custom.

Well i first started reading these stories at silly times. Believe me reading 'Come Follow Me' at half three in the morning isn't the best thing to do, I was looking over my shoulder ever five seconds :P
And i've got that graphic story thing on my DS :D

[Ninja Caterpie]

I really hate creepypasta, so I went and turned on the happiest, most cheerful song I have on my playlist (some random route theme from Super Mario RPG) and played it while reading. It really helps, lol. They still creeped me out though ;-;

Also, that thing about Chansey eggs is ridiculous. Think chicken eggs. ???

well the chancy egg thing was just an idea.
And i just read through the NDS Graphic novel thing and it sent chills down my spine.
http://multiple-option.blogspot.com/2010/08/pokemon-ghost-black-retold.html
It has an alternate ending and it is the scariest thing i have read to date :O

[The S]

So wait, there already was something called Tarnished Gold? Ay yi yi.

[Inferny]

Whoo! I downloaded the retelling to my emulator, and it went well. I didn't find the end scary or creepy, but it sure gave me something to think about.

[560cool.]

"Ghost has cursed you,"

What... I was really surprised about the end of the "novel". When it froze, I was also surprised, I wanted to know more...

This thread deserves the award for the scariest. o.o

[Mew~]

Im totally freaked out after reading lost silver.... *shivers*

[Hybrid Trainer]

So wait, there already was something called Tarnished Gold? Ay yi yi.
Yea, but at least the stories are completely different :P

Whoo! I downloaded the retelling to my emulator, and it went well. I didn't find the end scary or creepy, but it sure gave me something to think about.
How could you not find it scary? it sent chills up and down my spine even though i was sitting in direct sunlight.
Well it might have added to the effect that i completely forgot about the Nickname part of the DS

"Ghost has cursed you,"

What... I was really surprised about the end of the "novel". When it froze, I was also surprised, I wanted to know more...

This thread deserves the award for the scariest. o.o
Well thank you, That means a lot :P But as far as i know there isnt a scary thread award XP

Im totally freaked out after reading lost silver.... *shivers*
Yep, thats the usual reaction XD

[560cool.]

Well thank you, That means a lot :P But as far as i know there isnt a scary thread award XP

Well, I hope to hunt down all of them. And if Black was a hack, I would play it.
Also, the Red and Green suicide story was the first one I've ever read. And rereading it still gives me chills.
How I love creepypasta. Just listen to some cheerful song. It helps, it really does.

[The S]

Yea, but at least the stories are completely different :P


I'd guess that the creator of Tarnished Gold went through the same train of thought I did for the title of Tarnished Silver.

"Hmm... what happens to silver when it goes bad. It doesn't spoil, it doesn't taint... that's it, it tarnishes!"

3 new Creepypasta came out on the site

KANTO’S APOCALYPSE
One day I decided that I wanted to play through Kanto again. Unfortunately, I didn’t own Red, Blue, Yellow, Fire Red, or Leaf Green. But I did own a Game Boy Advance SP. Since there isn’t a Gamestop or anything near where I live, my only choice was to look at the local pawn shop. Luckily, they had Leaf Green.

I bought it and as soon as I got home, I put it in my Game Boy and started playing. It didn’t have a save file, so I had to start a new game. Everything was normal until I battled my rival. I defeated him, all he said was “…”. Then it went back to the overworld. Yet again he said “…”. and the screen flashed black for a moment and he disappeared, kind of like after you defeat Red in Gold, Silver, and Crystal.

I finally got to Pewter City, where I could battle Brock, the 1st gym leader. After I defeated him, the same thing happened with him. Then a question mark popped up above my character. Then a text box popped up saying, “Found the Boulder Badge and TM laying on the ground. Red (which is who I named my character) obtained the Boulder Badge and TM!” So I continued onto the next route.

The thing I mentioned earlier about Brock disappearing was happening to trainers I battled, too. Except I just picked up their money. As I walked down the route, some old man ran up to me and said, “Where ever you go, never go to Lavender Town. I heard that ghosts are possessing some of the residents and visitors there!” Then he ran off.

Now I’ve made it to Mt. Moon. I ventured through until I found Rocket grunts. At least, I thought that’s what they were. When I battled them, their skin looked really pale, and instead of an “R” on their uniform, it was a “Z”. I was thinking, “What does that stand for?” It actually freaked me out a bit. Finally I got to the super nerd. I beat him, but there were no fossils up ahead. So I just continued, finally reaching the exit.

I’m now at Cerulean City, were I can battle Misty. I battled her, but after I defeated her, she said, “I’ve had enough of defeat!” Then, in anger, she jumped into the water, and I never saw her again. I guess she drowned herself, or something. Luckily, the badge and TM were sitting on the platform that she was standing on, so I grabbed them and ran out of the gym.

I decided to go to Bill’s house after this. There were no trainers on the Nugget Bridge or the route after it, which I thought was kind of strange. I still went into Bill’s house. I saw him laying on the ground, kind of like the old man in Viridian City. I walked up to him and pressed A. A text box popped up and said, “You can’t here him breathe. Check for heartbeat?” I said “Yes” “There is no heartbeat. He must be dead.” So I walked right out and continued to Vermilion City.

When I got to Vermilion City, the S.S. Anne wasn’t in the harbor. There wasn’t any sailors there, either. I’ve also noticed that I didn’t need Cut to get to the gym. I walked in, and to my surprise there was no trainers or electric gate. It was just Lt. Surge standing in the middle of the gym. I battled him then defeated him. But after the battle, he sent out an Electrode and sat on it. He said, “I can’t take this anymore! Life is horrible! Electrode, use Self-Destruct!” And it did, killing Lt. Surge. The badge was on the ground, but I didn’t have to take it.

I eventually got to Rock Tunnel and I couldn’t wait to get out. After I managed to get out, I went straight to Lavender Town. I really didn’t have any other choice. As I walked around the town, I noticed the gym leaders and trainers I battled were there. But their skin was pale; almost gray-colored. As I continued walking, I noticed that they were following me. Then I used my running shoes. There were still following me. About this time I noticed that they were zombies. I ran around town looking for an unlocked building to go in, but all the doors were locked except for 2: Mr. Fuji’s house and Pokemon tower. The zombies were still following me.

I quickly ran into Mr Fuji’s house. I knew I would be safe there. The house was completely empty, except there was a desk with a computer on it. Out of curiosity, I walk up to it and pressed A. This is what it said: “There’s a text document. Read it?” I said “Yes” This is what the document said: “Something has gone completely wrong here in Kanto. If anyone is reading this, run from Lavender Town right now.” At this point I was pretty freaked out. So I get out of the house and run towards the nearest exit. But that exit was blocked off by a fence. So I run to the other two exits, but they had fences, too.

I had no choice but to go into Pokemon Tower. I noticed that the zombies were gone. So I run into the tower. But soon I found out that the zombies were there. So they started chasing me. I ran upstairs to find some possessed channelers. They didn’t want to battle, but they blocked the next staircase. By this time I had a Charizard. The zombies finally caught up. One walked up to me. Then a battle started. The zombie didn’t send out any Pokemon, so the zombies battled. I sent out Charizard. I tried to use Flame Thrower, but it had the same response as a Ghost in normal games. The zombie bit my Charizard. My Charizard fainted. The only other Pokemon I had were only weak HM slaves, so I knew at this point I was screwed. After the zombie knocked out all of my Pokemon, I finally whited out.

Instead of ending up in a Pokemon Center, I found myself on the top floor of Pokemon Tower with zombies surrounding me. I looked at my party and it had no Pokemon. Then I looked at my trainer card. Then I realized that they infected me, so now I am a zombie. I walked out of the tower and there were no more gates. I traveled all the way to Celedon City, but it was completely deserted. Then I went to Saffron City, and it was completely empty as well. I walked up to the sign outside of Silph Co. and it said “Out of business” Then I realized that this was about 20 years later an Kanto has been completely deserted. I walked to the resident’s houses and there were signs on the doors that said, “Moved to Isshu by force” Now I realized that the only living things in Kanto were zombies.

CHOOSE
I don’t remember exactly when I first noticed that the Unknown were spelling out words. But I do remember what made me pay attention to them.
True to the ‘catch em all’ mentality, I was trying to capture the full alphabet. Spending a lot of time with the Unknown, accidental words appearing was quite normal. It was when, six in a row they spelled out S. I. L. V. E. R, that I started to pay attention. As soon As I’d captured the R and the view went back to the overworld, my rival appeared. Right there in the unknown ruins. I hadn’t named my rival Silver, and he’d never been there before.. but there he was.
A battle began, and to my surprise his name came up as SILVER, rather than the name I’d given him. He was easy enough to defeat, and upon losing the battle said “….” then dissapeared.
That was the beggining. I searched the internet for glitches, or special events, or hidden extras in-game that might be what I’d experienced. There was none. This is partially why I’m writing this, if it happens to you, you will not be as naive as I was.
From then on, the unknown appeared at random, which was frustrating. Untill I remembered that the time before, i’d had the radio on. So, with the secret-signal playing and my hunt for the alphabet continuing, the Unknown started telling me things.
R. A. I. K. O. U
As soon as the U was defeated I went looking for Raikou in the ruins, but he wasn’t there. Eventually I left the ruins a little disheartened.. when i spotted his sprite sitting just outside the ruins. I initiated the battle with Raikou at the ruins, he was easy to catch. Easier than he should have been, I thought.
In my mind, this was fun. I’d discovered a special event that nobody new about!
But the Unknown were just getting my attention by bringing me Raikou. They had important things to say.
T. R. A. P. E. D
Trapped? It was mis-spelled, but maybe that was to fit into the 6-letter form they kept up. Trapped where? The screen shook, and there was a loud noise. A dialouge box popped up, it said: “An earthquake blocked off the entrance!”
What? Was there really a whole part of the story in this game that NOBODY new about? Why wasn’t this section in the guide book?
Sure enough, the ladder was useless. The next Unknown I met was shiny;
F
Despite already having that letter, who could resist a shiny pokemon? The next five were shiny too.. R. E. E. Z. E.
I made the mistake of catching them all, greed for shiny pokemon momentarilly taking over the message. Freeze? After that the music faltered and sounded strange, so I went to the pokegear to check the radio. The Unknown’s signal wasn’t playing anymore. I checked the other stations, and to my horror they were all playing static. This was too much, I stopped playing and went back to the internet to search for a walkthrough that had this part of the game covered, but found nothing. My computer’s speakers weren’t working for some reason, but I decided to fix that later. There was nobody on messenger to tell about my weird game. No new emails.. nothing was updated, so I went back to playing pokemon.
The radio was working, just for one broadcast.
“OAK: There were warnings of this, messages left from ancient times. We did not pay them attention. They warned us. We did not listen…..”
And it played that strange static noise again.
The Unknown, he had to mean the Unknown. What would their next message be? Would they tell me how to get out?
E. S. C. A. P. E.
Escape? I was trying to! How un-helpful. No, wait. Escape rope? It was so obvious I felt like an idiot for not thinking of it before, and used an escape rope. Sure enough, it brought me out to the overworld outside the Ruins. The scene was dramatically different though, the place was overgrown. The long grass was EVERYWHERE, the buildings themselves looked obviously destroyed.
I went to the researchers house, by the ruins, it was still standing and I hadn’t a clue what else to do. Inside was silent. The researchers sprites were where they always were, but it was impossible to interact with them. One of them, sitting at the table had the option “push?” appear when I tried to talk to him. then “yes” or “no”.. I chose yes. The sprite moved one square up, off the seat, but otherwise stayed exactly as it was.
I left the house, saved, and switched off the game for a break. It was starting to get to me. The next day, things took a turn for the worse. Nobody would speak to me, nobody would respond to me.. in fact.. they weren’t even moving. On the street, in the local cafe, people were posed as normal, as if time had stopped, they weren’t moving, or even breathing. There was a woman standing at the bus stop, I decided to “push” her, just to see what would happen. She fell, like a mannequin, and stiffly hit the ground with a THWAK… and blood poured out her head where it had hit the road.
Out of blind panic, I ran home and went back to playing Pokemon, I’d just left the researchers house.
Professor Oak was standing outside, an exclamation mark appeared above his head and he walked over to me. “A survivor! What is your name?”.
Two options came up, I could choose my player name, or “new name”. I chose my player name, and Oak reacted by jumping back. “You.. they speak to you”. And his sprite ran away.
Having no idea what I was ment to do next, I just wandered around johto aimlessly. Most of the buildings were obviously ruined. None of the people would respond to me, although one or two had the “push” option, if they were infront of something.
There were no wild pokemon. There were no animals to be heard in the outside world either.
In frustration, I went back to the Unknown Ruins to try and get back in, for another clue. After trying to walk into each entrance, the one that would normally go to the Ho-oh puzzle room let me in. I immediately put on the radio, hoping the Unknown would tell me something.
Sounds crazy, doesn’t it? Believeing that the Unknown were somehow speaking directly to me? But they were.
C. H. O. O. S. E
Choose. Okay! Choose what? What was my choice? Two holes opened in the floor of the puzzle room, and I heard the front and back doors of my house swing open.
Walking around the house, game in hand, I looked out both doors, everything looked normal outside both. In game, the two holes in the floor looked the same.
L. I. F. E. O. R
lifeor? Thats not a word.
D. E. A. T. H. ?.
A question mark! Forgetting myself for a moment, I was excited to see the rare unknown and caught it…. Life..or..death?
No, this wasn’t making sense, the next clue would help surely.
C. H. O. O. S. E
C. H. O. O. S. E
That’s all that they’d say. So I had to choose. Both holes in the floor looked the same, so I just took my chances and jumped down one. The whole screen went black, then faded to red, then white. A dialouge box appeared saying:
“You chose LIFE”.
My heart was hammering, I fainted.
When I woke up, my roommate was standing over me, asking if I was alright. There was music on, and cars outside. I survived! I was a lucky one. Possibly the first lucky one. My roomie told me that something had happened outside, a woman had been hit by a bus or something.
It was a few days before I dared play pokemon again, but curiosity got the better of me and I had to know what happened in the game. But the only option that came up after the title screen was “New Game”.
I chose not to start again, and left it alone. Since then, I’ve donated that catridge along with several other old games and toys to local a local thrift store.

Whoever else plays that game, better make sure to choose Life, I suspect the reason that there was no information on this before is because nobody before me was lucky enough to choose correctly.

Ever noticed those inconsistencies between the original first two games of the second gen and the third gen? Yes, I mean “Crystal”.
Why did they call it Crystal? They should have called it “Platinum” instead, it’s a metal like Gold and Silver after all. Also Suicune is the cover Pokemon. Suicune? What the hell, why not a Pokemon that actually fits here?
Well, that’s what they originally planned. The third game was to be called “Platinum”, it wouldn’t have focused on Suicune but instead would have created a link to the third gen where you would have continued your journey from the second gen. Remember how that Team Rocket guy in Cerulean City told you he would reform Team Rocket in another country, how the original two games never solved the whole Giovanni and Silver plotlines and especially how you get no reward for beating Red? It’s all because they planned to release a sequel. Pokemon Platinum. They only got as far as a quite glitchy beta though. A friend of mine happened to own one of those games, but sadly died recently. Since both of us loved to play Pokemon in our childhood, I wanted to honor the good old times one last time and started the game.
The edition layout of this game is completely different than usual. Remember “Pokemon Pinball”, that game with a rumble pack on top? It’s quite like that, just that you additionally can stack up a game on the game. Yes, that’s right: you were supposed to stack your Gold/Silver game on Platinum and then it would have created your character with all his Pokemon and ****. If you did not own Gold or Silver though you still could play the game as if it were one of those two games, but with some drawbacks like less Pokemon to catch and such.
So I stacked my year-old Silver game onto it and booted the gameboy. It started quite usual with a nice opening screen, showed me some Pokemon, the three starters and even their last evolutions. The graphics also looked quite good. Then Ho-Oh and Lugia showed up and the three dogs. It was quite obvious that Lugia symbolized the ocean while Ho-Oh symbolized the air. The threee dogs were actually symbolizing the ground itself. But then somethign weird happened.
The “camera”, if you can call it, went down, it went “underground”. For some time my screen went black, then suddenly two eyes opened. Those were not the eyes of a Pokemon I knew. They were huge and black but the pupils which had some kind of purple-white design. Also it looked damn good for a gameboy color game, almost like a photograph. You also could hear a pokemon scream. It was a scream I’ve never heard before. That did not scare me though, oh no: it thrilled me to play this game. After all, there would be an unseen Pokemon in it!
So after the opening sequence I got a new screen asking me if I want to import my game and continue and that’s what I did. Next up was a short explanation of the story: you are the new pokemon master and defeated red and basically everyone opposing you. But in a new country, Team Rocket rebuilt their organisation and now it’s up to you to free that country from them. It’s unknown who is their new leader at this point.
After you got told all that stuff, you get to pick one of the original starters as an addition for your team. After you’re done with that and about to leave, Oak tells you to be careful snce you “have no idea what you’re up against”. Yeah, a typical video game warning, you would think. But this time one should take it quite seriously.
Since I could reuse all my old Pokemon and revisit all of Johto and Kanto, I created a ****ing awesome team full of level 100 Pokemon, consisting of Feraligatr, my original starter in Silver, Charizard, Venusaur, Mewtwo, Gengar and Pidgeot. Next I was supposed to use the MS Anne that would bring me to that new country.
That place looked completely different from Kanto and Johto. Instead of green fields, colorful towns and happy music, there was grey everywhere and no music at all. The town was full of ****. It was like one of those huge metropoles, but without streets and people, everything was just emptry and grey and huge houses everywhere, but none of them had doors. At first I thought the game glitched up or something, but upon checking the Pokemon Center of that town, the only building you could enter, an event triggered.
An “old man” entered the place. He did not look like an old man though, it was not that usual “old bald man” sprite but instead a really weird sprite that you could barely make out as a human being, it was more like a stickman. Still I thought he was supposed to be an old man because all of his dialouge had “OJISAN:”, which basically means “Old man” in Japanese, in front of it. So once again I just thought “well, this probably is just due to the game being beta”. Then he started to talk, but he just had glitchy dialouge (you know, that kind of glitchy you get after seeing Missingno). After like 15 text boxes full of glitches, he finally brought out a readable sentence:
“please stop I HAVE TO DO THIS please stop”
Then suddenly a battle started. The old guy had a Team Rocket battle sprite and once again was named “OJISAN”. He had 6 Pokemon, just like I did. **** yeah, full battles all the time! His first Pokemon was Blastoise, mine was Pidgeot. His Blastoise was level 80, but my Pigeot was level 100, so what should go wrong? So I attacked using Wing Attack. His Blastoise barely survived and used Explosion next. Yes, a Blastoise used explosion, it was weird but there was nothing I could to about it now. My Pidgeot did not make it and fainted, but so did his Blastoise. But something was different now. Instead of “Pidgeot fainted!”, I got “Pidgeot died!”. Also Pidgeot was gone from my team. This game was actually the goddamn grandfather of the Nuzlocke Run, holy ****.
Slightly panicking, I sent out Mewtwo. His next five Pokemon all were different types and seemed like a usual Pokemon team one would use to beat Red in Silver. Well, Psychic still ****ed them for good. After defeating him, his sprite turned into some glitchy thing and just disappeared. I got some more backstory and the nurse told me that the Rocket headquarters are north of this “town” in some underground area and that’s where I have to fight them. I checked again if my Pidgeot was back, but it wasn’t so I had to replace it with my Skarmory for now. I headed north.
There was only one route between me and the entrance to that underground area and it was full of glitches, but it actually did have “music”, if you can call high-pitched glitchy random tones anything like that. When entering the grass to fight some pokemon it either was a Raticate named “INNOCENCE” or some glitchy ****fest similar to Missingno. but just stupid with other sprite parts in them (sometimes even those old ghost pokemon things you originally met in Lavender Town in Red&Blue). Also they always were level 0, however this can be possible. Sometimes you heard a weird pokemon scream, similar to the one in the beginning of the game.
So I finally found the underground base and it was just a cave. A really tiny cave, you could do nothing but go forward. Initially there was no music at all. So I progressed and suddenly there was a wild pokemon, just like the ones on that route before but this time it was level 1. Still managed to flee from them. I kept encountering those things and the more I went inside the cave the stronger they got, basically one level at a time. Also everytime I met a pokemon the cave seemed to chsnge a bit, after like 50 ones it looked like there was some liquid around me but it still was all dark.
Finally after like half an hour of glitchy **** I arrived in a new room and there he was: Giovanni himself. The room was not unlike the ones in Heartgold and Soulsilver when you use that event, but a lot more creepy. His only dialouge was:
“BE MINE”
Then a battle started. Giovanni had a typical Giovanni team from the previous games, but a LOT stronger in terms of levels, they all were at 100. I still managed to defeat him (again, all of his Pokemon “died”). After the battle he said nothing but simply disappeared and I could enter a new entrance behind him, and of course I entered.
No map loaded, nothing happened but a new battle. It was the Pokemon from the beginning, I could distingush it from its scream. The whole battle screen stayed black though and the only thing you could see was the eyes of that thing. Its name also was glitched, it was called “X - EO” with lots of glitchy **** everywhere. My first Pokemon was Mewtwo, once again. Of course I wanted to catch that thing, so I used Psychic. It did have no effect, so obviously that thing has Dark as its typing. His attack was something like the stuff Giygas does in the Earthbound games, but without text, the screen just flashed for a second and Mewtwo lost like half of his hit points. So next I tried to use Swift, but it didn’t work either: its typing was Dark/Ghost. Its attack killed my Mewtwo.
That’s the last thing I remember from that battle. Next thing I remember is that my Gameboy turned off because it ran out of batteries. When trying to turn it back on, even after I switched out batteries, it failed. Trying to start Silver or Platinium only failed either. Both games seemed to be broken for some reason and of course I wanted to know why which is why I tried to find out where my friend got that game from and what the **** is up with it. After some research I finally learned the truth about it. The new Pokemon is actually supposed to be the lord of the realm of death (Lugia controls water, Ho-Oh air, the dogs control the earth, the birds control the weather and the new thing controls the realm of the dead). They never continued developing the game because no one was able to defeat him and everyone who failed disappeared mysteriously or died shortly afterwards. Also they were unable to stop the game or make someone who plays it stop it, kinda like those guys are bond to the game or as if their defeat actually takes more from them but their ingame money. I was lucky the pokemon “ran out of power” so I still made it.
Kinda disappointed and mourning about my friend who seemingly also played the game and died afterwards only due to it, I wanted to see if his other games still worked. So I took his Gold edition, put it in my gameboy and upon the selection screen I broke down, started to cry for hours and realized what I’ve just done.
His character was named “OJISAN”.

3 new Creepypasta came out on the site

KANTO’S APOCALYPSE
One day I decided that I wanted to play through Kanto again. Unfortunately, I didn’t own Red, Blue, Yellow, Fire Red, or Leaf Green. But I did own a Game Boy Advance SP. Since there isn’t a Gamestop or anything near where I live, my only choice was to look at the local pawn shop. Luckily, they had Leaf Green.

I bought it and as soon as I got home, I put it in my Game Boy and started playing. It didn’t have a save file, so I had to start a new game. Everything was normal until I battled my rival. I defeated him, all he said was “…”. Then it went back to the overworld. Yet again he said “…”. and the screen flashed black for a moment and he disappeared, kind of like after you defeat Red in Gold, Silver, and Crystal.

I finally got to Pewter City, where I could battle Brock, the 1st gym leader. After I defeated him, the same thing happened with him. Then a question mark popped up above my character. Then a text box popped up saying, “Found the Boulder Badge and TM laying on the ground. Red (which is who I named my character) obtained the Boulder Badge and TM!” So I continued onto the next route.

The thing I mentioned earlier about Brock disappearing was happening to trainers I battled, too. Except I just picked up their money. As I walked down the route, some old man ran up to me and said, “Where ever you go, never go to Lavender Town. I heard that ghosts are possessing some of the residents and visitors there!” Then he ran off.

Now I’ve made it to Mt. Moon. I ventured through until I found Rocket grunts. At least, I thought that’s what they were. When I battled them, their skin looked really pale, and instead of an “R” on their uniform, it was a “Z”. I was thinking, “What does that stand for?” It actually freaked me out a bit. Finally I got to the super nerd. I beat him, but there were no fossils up ahead. So I just continued, finally reaching the exit.

I’m now at Cerulean City, were I can battle Misty. I battled her, but after I defeated her, she said, “I’ve had enough of defeat!” Then, in anger, she jumped into the water, and I never saw her again. I guess she drowned herself, or something. Luckily, the badge and TM were sitting on the platform that she was standing on, so I grabbed them and ran out of the gym.

I decided to go to Bill’s house after this. There were no trainers on the Nugget Bridge or the route after it, which I thought was kind of strange. I still went into Bill’s house. I saw him laying on the ground, kind of like the old man in Viridian City. I walked up to him and pressed A. A text box popped up and said, “You can’t here him breathe. Check for heartbeat?” I said “Yes” “There is no heartbeat. He must be dead.” So I walked right out and continued to Vermilion City.

When I got to Vermilion City, the S.S. Anne wasn’t in the harbor. There wasn’t any sailors there, either. I’ve also noticed that I didn’t need Cut to get to the gym. I walked in, and to my surprise there was no trainers or electric gate. It was just Lt. Surge standing in the middle of the gym. I battled him then defeated him. But after the battle, he sent out an Electrode and sat on it. He said, “I can’t take this anymore! Life is horrible! Electrode, use Self-Destruct!” And it did, killing Lt. Surge. The badge was on the ground, but I didn’t have to take it.

I eventually got to Rock Tunnel and I couldn’t wait to get out. After I managed to get out, I went straight to Lavender Town. I really didn’t have any other choice. As I walked around the town, I noticed the gym leaders and trainers I battled were there. But their skin was pale; almost gray-colored. As I continued walking, I noticed that they were following me. Then I used my running shoes. There were still following me. About this time I noticed that they were zombies. I ran around town looking for an unlocked building to go in, but all the doors were locked except for 2: Mr. Fuji’s house and Pokemon tower. The zombies were still following me.

I quickly ran into Mr Fuji’s house. I knew I would be safe there. The house was completely empty, except there was a desk with a computer on it. Out of curiosity, I walk up to it and pressed A. This is what it said: “There’s a text document. Read it?” I said “Yes” This is what the document said: “Something has gone completely wrong here in Kanto. If anyone is reading this, run from Lavender Town right now.” At this point I was pretty freaked out. So I get out of the house and run towards the nearest exit. But that exit was blocked off by a fence. So I run to the other two exits, but they had fences, too.

I had no choice but to go into Pokemon Tower. I noticed that the zombies were gone. So I run into the tower. But soon I found out that the zombies were there. So they started chasing me. I ran upstairs to find some possessed channelers. They didn’t want to battle, but they blocked the next staircase. By this time I had a Charizard. The zombies finally caught up. One walked up to me. Then a battle started. The zombie didn’t send out any Pokemon, so the zombies battled. I sent out Charizard. I tried to use Flame Thrower, but it had the same response as a Ghost in normal games. The zombie bit my Charizard. My Charizard fainted. The only other Pokemon I had were only weak HM slaves, so I knew at this point I was screwed. After the zombie knocked out all of my Pokemon, I finally whited out.

Instead of ending up in a Pokemon Center, I found myself on the top floor of Pokemon Tower with zombies surrounding me. I looked at my party and it had no Pokemon. Then I looked at my trainer card. Then I realized that they infected me, so now I am a zombie. I walked out of the tower and there were no more gates. I traveled all the way to Celedon City, but it was completely deserted. Then I went to Saffron City, and it was completely empty as well. I walked up to the sign outside of Silph Co. and it said “Out of business” Then I realized that this was about 20 years later an Kanto has been completely deserted. I walked to the resident’s houses and there were signs on the doors that said, “Moved to Isshu by force” Now I realized that the only living things in Kanto were zombies.

I don’t remember exactly when I first noticed that the Unknown were spelling out words. But I do remember what made me pay attention to them.
True to the ‘catch em all’ mentality, I was trying to capture the full alphabet. Spending a lot of time with the Unknown, accidental words appearing was quite normal. It was when, six in a row they spelled out S. I. L. V. E. R, that I started to pay attention. As soon As I’d captured the R and the view went back to the overworld, my rival appeared. Right there in the unknown ruins. I hadn’t named my rival Silver, and he’d never been there before.. but there he was.
A battle began, and to my surprise his name came up as SILVER, rather than the name I’d given him. He was easy enough to defeat, and upon losing the battle said “….” then dissapeared.
That was the beggining. I searched the internet for glitches, or special events, or hidden extras in-game that might be what I’d experienced. There was none. This is partially why I’m writing this, if it happens to you, you will not be as naive as I was.
From then on, the unknown appeared at random, which was frustrating. Untill I remembered that the time before, i’d had the radio on. So, with the secret-signal playing and my hunt for the alphabet continuing, the Unknown started telling me things.
R. A. I. K. O. U
As soon as the U was defeated I went looking for Raikou in the ruins, but he wasn’t there. Eventually I left the ruins a little disheartened.. when i spotted his sprite sitting just outside the ruins. I initiated the battle with Raikou at the ruins, he was easy to catch. Easier than he should have been, I thought.
In my mind, this was fun. I’d discovered a special event that nobody new about!
But the Unknown were just getting my attention by bringing me Raikou. They had important things to say.
T. R. A. P. E. D
Trapped? It was mis-spelled, but maybe that was to fit into the 6-letter form they kept up. Trapped where? The screen shook, and there was a loud noise. A dialouge box popped up, it said: “An earthquake blocked off the entrance!”
What? Was there really a whole part of the story in this game that NOBODY new about? Why wasn’t this section in the guide book?
Sure enough, the ladder was useless. The next Unknown I met was shiny;
F
Despite already having that letter, who could resist a shiny pokemon? The next five were shiny too.. R. E. E. Z. E.
I made the mistake of catching them all, greed for shiny pokemon momentarilly taking over the message. Freeze? After that the music faltered and sounded strange, so I went to the pokegear to check the radio. The Unknown’s signal wasn’t playing anymore. I checked the other stations, and to my horror they were all playing static. This was too much, I stopped playing and went back to the internet to search for a walkthrough that had this part of the game covered, but found nothing. My computer’s speakers weren’t working for some reason, but I decided to fix that later. There was nobody on messenger to tell about my weird game. No new emails.. nothing was updated, so I went back to playing pokemon.
The radio was working, just for one broadcast.
“OAK: There were warnings of this, messages left from ancient times. We did not pay them attention. They warned us. We did not listen…..”
And it played that strange static noise again.
The Unknown, he had to mean the Unknown. What would their next message be? Would they tell me how to get out?
E. S. C. A. P. E.
Escape? I was trying to! How un-helpful. No, wait. Escape rope? It was so obvious I felt like an idiot for not thinking of it before, and used an escape rope. Sure enough, it brought me out to the overworld outside the Ruins. The scene was dramatically different though, the place was overgrown. The long grass was EVERYWHERE, the buildings themselves looked obviously destroyed.
I went to the researchers house, by the ruins, it was still standing and I hadn’t a clue what else to do. Inside was silent. The researchers sprites were where they always were, but it was impossible to interact with them. One of them, sitting at the table had the option “push?” appear when I tried to talk to him. then “yes” or “no”.. I chose yes. The sprite moved one square up, off the seat, but otherwise stayed exactly as it was.
I left the house, saved, and switched off the game for a break. It was starting to get to me. The next day, things took a turn for the worse. Nobody would speak to me, nobody would respond to me.. in fact.. they weren’t even moving. On the street, in the local cafe, people were posed as normal, as if time had stopped, they weren’t moving, or even breathing. There was a woman standing at the bus stop, I decided to “push” her, just to see what would happen. She fell, like a mannequin, and stiffly hit the ground with a THWAK… and blood poured out her head where it had hit the road.
Out of blind panic, I ran home and went back to playing Pokemon, I’d just left the researchers house.
Professor Oak was standing outside, an exclamation mark appeared above his head and he walked over to me. “A survivor! What is your name?”.
Two options came up, I could choose my player name, or “new name”. I chose my player name, and Oak reacted by jumping back. “You.. they speak to you”. And his sprite ran away.
Having no idea what I was ment to do next, I just wandered around johto aimlessly. Most of the buildings were obviously ruined. None of the people would respond to me, although one or two had the “push” option, if they were infront of something.
There were no wild pokemon. There were no animals to be heard in the outside world either.
In frustration, I went back to the Unknown Ruins to try and get back in, for another clue. After trying to walk into each entrance, the one that would normally go to the Ho-oh puzzle room let me in. I immediately put on the radio, hoping the Unknown would tell me something.
Sounds crazy, doesn’t it? Believeing that the Unknown were somehow speaking directly to me? But they were.
C. H. O. O. S. E
Choose. Okay! Choose what? What was my choice? Two holes opened in the floor of the puzzle room, and I heard the front and back doors of my house swing open.
Walking around the house, game in hand, I looked out both doors, everything looked normal outside both. In game, the two holes in the floor looked the same.
L. I. F. E. O. R

D. E. A. T. H. ?.

That’s all that they’d say. So I had to choose. Both holes in the floor looked the same, so I just took my chances and jumped down one. The whole screen went black, then faded to red, then white. A dialouge box appeared saying:
“You chose LIFE”.
My heart was hammering, I fainted.
When I woke up, my roommate was standing over me, asking if I was alright. There was music on, and cars outside. I survived! I was a lucky one. Possibly the first lucky one. My roomie told me that something had happened outside, a woman had been hit by a bus or something.

I got some more backstory and the nurse told me that the Rocket headquarters are north of this “town” in some underground area and that’s where I have to fight them. I checked again if my Pidgeot was back, but it wasn’t so I had to replace it with my Skarmory for now. I headed north.
There was only one route between me and the entrance to that underground area and it was full of glitches, but it actually did have “music”, if you can call high-pitched glitchy random tones anything like that. When entering the grass to fight some pokemon it either was a Raticate named “INNOCENCE” or some glitchy ****fest similar to Missingno. but just stupid with other sprite parts in them (sometimes even those old ghost pokemon things you originally met in Lavender Town in Red&Blue). Also they always were level 0, however this can be possible. Sometimes you heard a weird pokemon scream, similar to the one in the beginning of the game.
So I finally found the underground base and it was just a cave. A really tiny cave, you could do nothing but go forward. Initially there was no music at all. So I progressed and suddenly there was a wild pokemon, just like the ones on that route before but this time it was level 1. Still managed to flee from them. I kept encountering those things and the more I went inside the cave the stronger they got, basically one level at a time. Also everytime I met a pokemon the cave seemed to chsnge a bit, after like 50 ones it looked like there was some liquid around me but it still was all dark.
Finally after like half an hour of glitchy **** I arrived in a new room and there he was: Giovanni himself. The room was not unlike the ones in Heartgold and Soulsilver when you use that event, but a lot more creepy. His only dialouge was:
“BE MINE”
Then a battle started. Giovanni had a typical Giovanni team from the previous games, but a LOT stronger in terms of levels, they all were at 100. I still managed to defeat him (again, all of his Pokemon “died”). After the battle he said nothing but simply disappeared and I could enter a new entrance behind him, and of course I entered.
No map loaded, nothing happened but a new battle. It was the Pokemon from the beginning, I could distingush it from its scream. The whole battle screen stayed black though and the only thing you could see was the eyes of that thing. Its name also was glitched, it was called “X - EO” with lots of glitchy **** everywhere. My first Pokemon was Mewtwo, once again. Of course I wanted to catch that thing, so I used Psychic. It did have no effect, so obviously that thing has Dark as its typing. His attack was something like the stuff Giygas does in the Earthbound games, but without text, the screen just flashed for a second and Mewtwo lost like half of his hit points. So next I tried to use Swift, but it didn’t work either: its typing was Dark/Ghost. Its attack killed my Mewtwo.
That’s the last thing I remember from that battle. Next thing I remember is that my Gameboy turned off because it ran out of batteries. When trying to turn it back on, even after I switched out batteries, it failed. Trying to start Silver or Platinium only failed either. Both games seemed to be broken for some reason and of course I wanted to know why which is why I tried to find out where my friend got that game from and what the **** is up with it. After some research I finally learned the truth about it. The new Pokemon is actually supposed to be the lord of the realm of death (Lugia controls water, Ho-Oh air, the dogs control the earth, the birds control the weather and the new thing controls the realm of the dead). They never continued developing the game because no one was able to defeat him and everyone who failed disappeared mysteriously or died shortly afterwards. Also they were unable to stop the game or make someone who plays it stop it, kinda like those guys are bond to the game or as if their defeat actually takes more from them but their ingame money. I was lucky the pokemon “ran out of power” so I still made it.
Kinda disappointed and mourning about my friend who seemingly also played the game and died afterwards only due to it, I wanted to see if his other games still worked. So I took his Gold edition, put it in my gameboy and upon the selection screen I broke down, started to cry for hours and realized what I’ve just done.
His character was named “OJISAN”.

KANTO’S APOCALYPSE: Its was alright to begin with, even though it was a bit extream to just have random suicides here and ther. And then it completely died when it had 'Zombies'. I mean come on! who is really scared of zombies!!!

CHOOSE: I found this one quite interesting, the fact that the unknowns are very underused in most creepypasta made this one very original. But the part where it made 'Time Freeze' in the real world made it less believable. However this is slightly made up by the fact that he reacted like most normal people would be and not soil them self because there game was acting weird.

OJISAN: This one was pretty cool.The fact again that the game effected you in real life kinda makes it less believable and therefore less scary, but the way it said they mysteriously went missing or died made up for it as it could be like the lavender town tone and could made something that provoked suicide. Overall if it toned down on the language it would be a pretty decent CreepyPasta.

Keep them coming people :D

Everyone you MUST read this!!!
This story is even better than Creepy Black and Lost Silver put together!!!

About a month ago, I bought a second Pokémon Red cartridge off eBay so I could start a new game and screw around without messing up my save file. As soon as I compared it to my old one, I knew it was either a bootleg or produced somewhere else. You can see in the picture how the sticker doesn’t fit the front of the cartridge, and the red plastic is cheap and almost see-through (if you look close, you can see the internal battery on the second, while the first can’t be seen through at all). When I started it up, it only had one option – New Game, and unlike the well-loved cartridge I’d been using, it didn’t have any wear marks from being inserted into the GBC or anything indicating it’d been used.
Well, what the hell, I figured. I’d poured plenty of money into the franchise and one bootlegged game wasn’t going to kill me. I popped it into my GBC and started playing.
A couple of weeks ago, I lost my GBC for a while, so I had to play it on my SP. No huge deal, I thought.
When I started the game up, oddly enough, the backlit screen of my SP went out, like I was playing on an old Game Boy Advance or a Color. I thought that was pretty weird, considering the lower setting of my SP’s screen was brighter than the “high” setting on all my friends’ SPs, as I took good care of it, and it was unlikely that the backlight would be going anytime soon. But as soon as I switched to playing Sapphire, the screen lit back up. I’d played my other Red on this SP plenty, and it’d never dimmed for an old Game Boy game, so I just attributed it to the game itself being poorly made (which makes no ****ing sense, I know).
About now, you’re probably wondering when I’m going to start telling you about how there were Unown in my party and the Buried Alive guy in Lavendar Town started eating my player character, because any preowned bootleg game story is bound to be some creepy hacked ****. Well, it wasn’t that simple. I played through Lavender Town, the Pokémon Tower, all of that, and nothing unusual happened. I didn’t go mad from the music and feel suicidal, my Pokémon never turned white and started crying tears of blood, or anything like that.
However, as I continued playing, it became apparent to me that this game had some glitches. Just like the cheap plastic casing and sticker that barely stuck, the game itself was flaky. I’ve never played Pokémon on an emulator before, but if I had to guess, I would say that when it was copied, a lot of the data was corrupted, and I had to be careful when playing or it would freeze.
For example, sometimes the graphics around the player (I’m going to call him “Red”, as that’s what I named him. I’m a bit of a Red fanboy) would turn into big colored bars and the game would stop, and the background music would stop on whatever note it had hit and play this high-pitched, staticky whine until I restart. This happened whenever I tried to get on my bike inside a cave or building.
I was almost sure this was just a normal bootlegged game until I examined the SNES in the Celadon department store. Don’t judge me, but, being a Red fanboy, I’ve always liked when the game said things from Red’s point of view, like how he says “Dad would like this!” when you examine the SNES, or “I should get going…” when you examine the TV, since you never get to see the player say anything, to the point where, as a joke, the developers made Red say nothing more than ellipses when you encountered him in G/S/C.
Anyways, when I examined the SNES where Red would normally say, “Dad would like this!”, instead, I saw the text, “Where is DAD?”
I examined it again, and, same thing. I kind of laughed it off, thinking, for some reason, it was poor translation (don’t ask how I thought that made any sense). In the back of my mind, I was kind of hoping for a hack game, because hey, if I got some screencaps and posted them on 4chan, I’d be able to at least kill an afternoon laughing about it.
I went to the next floor, then went back down and checked the NES again. To my surprise, the message had changed. Now, Red said, “Who created me?”
At this point, I was pretty sure this had been added in by some hacker, and I thought that was kind of AWESOME. Hell, Red finding out he was really just a video game character. That’s pretty funny.
After that, and after failing to find any other added-in dialogue, I continued on in the game’s story. At that point, I was about near the part where you surf to Cinnabar and the Seafoam Islands.
But the glitching was getting worse. Sometimes, the map would get distorted, like Glitch City, and Red would be surfing on a tree or a house or some **** and I couldn’t move. I had to Fly out and try again. As a kid, I’d always liked doing MissingNo. and Glitch City, and I had a Gameshark back in the day, so the glitches were kind of cool. Eventually, I made it to Cinnabar.
Now, being an avid glitcher way back when, of course the first thing I did was fly back to Viridian and do the Old Man trick. But no matter how many times I tried, I could never get MissingNo to appear. I thought maybe the ROM had been edited to prevent glitching, but that clearly wasn’t the case, as the thing had more bugs than the ****ing Viridian Forest.
Instead, when I entered the Pokémon Mansion, I was greeted by the following text window:
RED: Nice try, Red.
It was obvious that where “Red” was would be the name of whatever you named your player. What freaked me was “RED”, in all caps, as the speaker.
At this point, I know I had to have an edited game. The ****ing player character was telling me “nice try” after I’d failed to do a MissingNo.
The game froze then, and I restarted. I hadn’t saved since before I tried the MissingNo glitch, but when I turned the game on again, I was back in the Mansion, exactly where the window had popped up. I could move again, so I went ahead and played through the Mansion. Call me a pussy, but despite my excitement, I was scared, so I played slowly and with all the lights on. I was still playing on my SP, and the internal light still didn’t work, so I used that as justification for my being a massive pussy.
Things only got weirder. After I left the mansion, I got a message:
PA: DING-DONG! Time’s up! Your safari game is over!
Having done Glitch City in the past, I knew this happened whenever you flew out of the safari zone. As expected, I was outside the Safari Zone gate the next time I hit “A”, with the attendants asking me if I got a good haul.
I had an immense feeling of forboding when I went to leave the gate, scared I’d be in Glitch City or even worse. I had a flier, but you have to understand, this is all a little unnerving.
Instead, I was in Pallet Town, but there was no music, nothing. Another text window appeared:
RED: This isn’t where I’m from. I’ve been lied to.
I couldn’t move my player after that, so I went to reset, but something stopped me. Instead, I opened the Start menu and went to Fly the **** out of there, but to my horror, the Pidgeot I used for Fly wasn’t there. Just my Blastoise, Exeggutor, Kadabra, Mew (from the Nugget Bridge glitch), and Kangaskhan. In Pidgeot’s place was a level 16 Raticate with 1 HP. It was poisoned. I checked its stats, and it had the OT “BLUE” and knew Hyper Beam, Quick Attack, Glare, and Skull Bash. I don’t even know if Raticate can learn all of these moves. I’ve since heard that Gary’s Raticate died (seriously) in the game, but I had named Gary “DOUCHE” in this game for a few laughs. I guess the OT name “BLUE” came from the fact that Blue is the opposite to Red version, like maybe it was supposed to have come from a Blue cartridge. I know Rattata doesn’t evolve until level 20, so this was a pretty obvious hack.
I had some Antidotes and Potions in my bag, so I figured, what the hell, I’d heal it. But when I left the POKéMON menu, the entire Start menu closed, and I couldn’t open it again. I tried walking, and this time I was able to move. I took a few steps, forgetting about the poison until a box popped up again:
RED: We killed it.
At this point, I was getting a little freaked out (no ****ing ****). I went to my party and Raticate wasn’t there at all. Neither was my Pidgeot. The slot was empty. I closed the menu and tried to move again, but nothing. I didn’t want to turn the game off in case it had somehow saved again, so I just kept trying to move before remembering that my Kadabra still knew Teleport. When I hit Start, ntohing happened. I kept trying to move, but I couldn’t move. No… Red wasn’t letting me move.
RED: This happened to me. Why?
At that point I just shut the game off. I took the hacked Red version out and put in FireRed. Like with my old game, I’d named the player “Red”, and for some reason it still kind of scared me. I started it up, and, to my horror, the screen was still dimmed. I hit “CONTINUE” on the main menu, but when I tried to open my game, I got the message saying that my save data had been lost or corrupted, and when I started, the game froze, with the music just being a staticky whine.
At this point, I was really desperate to play some ****ing Pokémon where no weird **** was going on, and I was pissed that my FireRed version was broken, so I threw in Sapphire and started it up. The screen lit up normally. I thought for a moment that maybe something was wrong with my SP that broke my FireRed, and ****, I didn’t want that happening to my Sapphire with the Jirachi from Colloseum and the Feebas it’d taken me an hour to find, so I shut it off and pulled it out.
I started playing what I call “Glitchy Red” version again about a week ago. When I started it back up, I was still in Pallet Town, and there was music and things seemed normal, except for the empty slot in my party and my SP screen no longer lighting up. I biked to Viridian and found Pidgeot safely in my PC, so I figured, what the hell, and took it out and flew to Cinnabar to fight Blaine.
When I went to unlock the gym, surprise, another text box.
RED: No.
No matter how many times I tried, the game refused to believe I had the ****ing Secret Key despite it being right there in my bag. Red wasn’t letting me in.
RED: Everything that happened to me, happened because the world let it happen to me. I didn’t become a hero on my own! I was manipulated. I never unlocked that door. The door was unlocked because the game let me in. Everything you do, you do because the GAME lets you.
Because of how the text boxes were, it took a really long time to scroll through, and the whole time I was writing down what he was saying so I had it on reference. Things were getting a little too Silent Hill for me, and, once again, I tried to move, but Red wouldn’t let me.
RED: I’m going to show you how it feels to be unable to chose your own fate.
I gave up and opened the Start menu again, glad that I could, and used Pidgeot to fly out of there. I knew now that this was only because Red was letting me fly out. He was toying with me.
I flew to Lavender, because, shockingly enough, nothing weird had ever happened there. From Lavender, I walked down to try and go to Fucshia, but as soon as I left Lavender, Red was at it again.
RED: No.
Well, ****, I thought. I opened the menu and flew to Fucshia. When the I got there, I nearly shat my pants and dropped my SP.
It was the Glitch City you get when you surf along Cinnabar’s coast. Immediately, the menu popped up, the way it does when you do the Mew glitch, and it was asking me to save the game. There was no option for “No”, and pressing B did nothing. I shut my game off.
When I started it back up, I was still in Glitch City. I checked my party, the way Red wanted me to – Pidgeot and Kadabra were there, but instead of “TELEPORT” and “FLY” appearing when I selected them, there was only “CURSED”. Not “CURSE”, like in that ****ing retarded Creepy Black Pasta, but “CURSED”. I was smart enough not to select it. I hit B until I was out of the menu, and Red was telling me **** again.
RED: You’re staying here with me, Red. They replaced me because I was GLITCHED and not good enouigh (sic). I thought this was my story, but I’m just a character in a video game. They took everything from me. My VOICE. My FREEDOM. My LEGACY. They replaced me with the brown-eyed kid.
I understood now that he meant FireRed version, and the Gold, Silver, and Crystal versions where he’d been demoted to final boss.
He let me move, and, to my surprise, the game never froze, even as I was walking on water and stepping onto houses.
Eventually, I suppose I went too far, because the screen turned black around my player.
RED: Am I a joke to you?
A YES/NO option popped up. I can’t tell you how fast I hit “NO”.
RED: Then why do you do these things to me? Why do you corrupt my world and show me GLITCHES that aren’t meant to be? Why do you want to hurt me with MISSNGNO.?
I never wanted to hurt Red. It was just for fun. The game had bugs, and we’ve all just exploited them for fun, right?
RED: Why did I have to die? Just because I’m a hero?
I shut my game off. That night, I had a dream where I was a Pokémon Trainer – the player from FireRed, who I will never again think of as “Red”. I was being chased by a white-pale body. While I can’t feel pain in my dreams (I know some people can), the pale figure eventually caught me and ripped at my chest and sides with his nails. The last thing I saw before I woke up was the face of my attacker – a little boy with bright red eyes, black hair, and a red and white hat.
For the next few days, when I played, it was because I had to. I was trapped in the blackness because Red refused to let me go. Because he was forsaken and forgotten, left to just be abused by players who come back out of nostalgia and to exploit the bugs. Because I played so much, I almost always had a headache from the high-pitched noises the game makes. I had to call out of work sick. I could never move, but I found comfort in staring at the screen with the black background and my player. Red didn’t say anything to me.
I couldn’t play FireRed again, even though it worked on my DS. Yesterday, I finally got to Mt. Silver on HeartGold, and I couldn’t bring myself to battle Red. I don’t know what he’d do to me if I beat his replacement. Would he be angry? Happy? Would his defeat put his spirit at peace? I don’t know. No matter how many times I play through the games, Red will suffer the same fate, because he is a hero, and because the games let him only go so far. Red will never again be able to experience the glory of being the hero, and neither will we. No matter how many times you start a new game, it will never be the same as the first time you played. You know what’s going to happen, and you play for nostalgia, because it’s just a game to you now.
I killed Red, and so did you. Unlike Ash Ketchum, he’s never going to be the hero of another new game in a brand new region. In HeartGold, Gold’s successor, Ethan, had even taken his accomplishments from him, being the one to catch the Pokemon Red had fought so hard for – Mewtwo, Zapdos, Articuno, and Moltres. His life is over for him. He became such a legend that there was nothing left of him to even be proud of himself.
I finished “Glitchy Red” yesterday, when I finally checked my Trainer card. There was a sprite of Red as he appeared in G/S/C, but in the game’s same monochrome color scheme, just red and green. When I looked closer, the red pixels making up his shirt looked darker and arranged oddly, almost like he was bleeding from the chest. None of my Badges or time played or Trainer ID, just that sprite. When I returned to the menu, instead of my name appearing as “Red”, there was the word “GONE” for my Trainer card. I selected it, and this time, the card was blank.
RED: Go ahead and forget me now. Goodbye.
The game reset, the way it does after you beat the Champion, and this time, there was only one option – NEW GAME.
I found my GBC earlier today and started playing it on there. When I played on my SP, the screen lit up and everything was normal. I had to start a new game on my FireRed, but it’s working again. Even the bootlegged Red version plays normally, no glitches. But I can never see Red’s silence the same ever again, or even the hilarious MissingNo. and Glitch City bugs. I have a much deeper respect for the “silent protagonists” in the game, for all we put them through. Lavender Town used to creep me out, but now I find it very peaceful, as even Red, who wanted revenge on a world that had treated him horribly, could never mess with the resting place of fallen Pokémon.
Someday, I hope I stop waking up with scratches on my torso.

[Serene Grace]

After talking it through with the other staff members, we've decided that the Pokémon Creepypasta (and indeed other Pokémon based internet memes) now belong in the Life, The Universe, and Everything forum so I'll go ahead and move this over there.

[Hybrid Trainer]

Well Ok, I guess thats fair. But if this thread dies in the next few days i'm blaiming you guys.

Anyway, i read this one a few times and i still don't really understand it, It's kinda good just confusing. Any help people?
Mewtwo CreepyPasta
Let me tell you a story. I lost my Blue cartridge and I felt nostalgic, but I didn’t want to consult an emulator since the experience wouldn’t be the same. Lucky for me, my video game store had a Blue to spare. It looked like any other cartridge, with the label and everything. So I popped the sucker in and was ready to reunite with Squirtle for some oldtime ass-kicking. The game went as normal; named my rival after a detested Anime character, built my team, earned the Boulder and Cascade badges.

I dug in the grass to look for Abra when Mewtwo appeared. He’s level 70, just like he would be in the Unknown Dungeon/Cerulean Cave. Now that was weird; bear in mind I don’t have a GameShark. My team was obviously underleveled and I couldn’t run, and all it took was several Psychics to knock my team dead. But that’s the thing; I blacked out and got back to the Pokemon Center, and I had no Pokemon except for my starter. That’s right; my Pokemon didn’t just “faint,” they were erased from my roster and I couldn’t find them in my PC. Frustrated, I reset the game, starting from my last save. Guess what, I didn’t get my Pokemon back. On top of it all, my Wartortle went back to being a Level 5 Squirtle. Since I’m guessing the game dictated I must always have one Pokemon on me after I met Professor Oak and left Pallet Town, it reset my starter after it had been “killed” by Mewtwo. I couldn’t believe it. I was tempted to start a New Game, but since I’d gotten so far already and didn’t feel like grinding in Viridian Forest and Mt. Moon again, I sucked it up, bought some Pokeballs, and started building my team from scratch.

It must be coincidence I first met Mewtwo above Cerulean. Not only was it close to the Unknown Dungeon, but it’s also where you could first perform the Mew glitch with the Youngster’s Slowpoke. Randomly, throughout the game, Mewtwo found me and wiped out my team. Again, I had to train my Squirtle and catch back my Pokemon. Rinse, lather, repeat. He always went first, no matter what my speed; if I tried using a Pokeball, Mewtwo would kill my Pokemon first, causing me to switch out without having done anything at all. It made me cautious of entering the grass; I caught the mon I needed and ran, stocking myself with Repels wherever I went. Maybe it was useless against an overpowered Mewtwo, but at least it got me through Pokemon-infested areas faster. I learned to dread the Wild Battle theme and the idea of the screen criss-crossing to black.

When I got to Lavender Town, the start menu loaded on its own. The Mew glitch happened without me doing anything. Due to my paranoia, I always carried balls on me, so I managed to catch it without a sweat (okay, I actually was sweating that time). Later when I started a new game and tested what happened if you fainted Mew instead of catching it, it’d be right there; no ifs, ands, or buts, Mew will absolutely not go away unless you catch it.

Another odd thing about Mew. Like your Starter, Mewtwo cannot erase it from your party. But instead of going back to Level 5, Mew will be at the exact level you raised it to. Good for me, since grinding gets damn tedious without a partner to bait-and-switch with.

I beat the Elite 4. Now it was on. I got tired of Mewtwo stalking me and I was going to make him my *****. Up until this point, I haven’t been able to try using a Master Ball on him since he always attacked my Pokemon first. But on the final floor, the final showdown, I finally had a chance to fight back. Depending on what I did, the ending changed…

1. If I used the Master Ball, Mewtwo will force himself to be the first Pokemon in my lineup. In battle, he’d act exactly as a Pokemon would if you didn’t have all the badges, with a twist. Instead of randomly using a different move on the Pokemon (“Mewtwo instead used SWIFT!”), he used them on other members of my party. (“Mewtwo instead used SWIFT on BLASTOISE!”) The only option on the window was “Fight” and the only move my team had was “Struggle.” Not only would he take out my opponent, he set up the Ultimate Middle Finger on me as I could do nothing but watch Mewtwo destroy everything I had. When Mewtwo finished slaughtering my Pokemon, my Mew automatically popped out of its ball and challenged him. When Mew or Mewtwo were down to a sliver of HP, Mew used Explosion (which I had never taught), knocking each other out. After it said Mew and Mewtwo fainted, the game blacked out of battle… and stuck there. No buttons worked. I restarted, and my file was still there. Still in shock, I avoided my cartridge for a long time before I was brave enough to try again…

2. A battle to the death. Instead of struggling, my Pokemon retained all their moves, and the battle went as it normally should. Any Pokemon I lost in the fight couldn’t be brought back, but at least I was at a high enough level for most of my team to survive. With Mewtwo gone, the game went back to normal. I still had Mew, I still had my starter. I played for hours and Mewtwo never shown up in the grass or caves again. I minded my own business, yet all I could do was think, “What the heck was that about?”

3. What would happen if I don’t attack Mewtwo? Crazy thought, but I got curious enough to test it. I used healing items, defensive moves, tried escaping, let my Pokemon faint. I didn’t lay a finger on the guy. When my last Pokemon fell to 1 HP, the music disappeared, but not the sound effects.

A “…” appeared, like when a Gym Leader talks to you after battle. I pressed A. Mewtwo said, “What have I become?” Next thing I knew, the box read, “MEWTWO used STRUGGLE on itself!” Bam. I was taken aback, mortified as I watched this creature beat himself to submission. My Pokemon gained no experience and I returned to the overworld. In place of Mewtwo is a Pokeball. I take it and it’s an item that didn’t exist until G/S/C: Sacred Ash. Credits play. The game starts again and I’m on top of the Pokemon Tower. I open up my Pokemon and all my team members are there, albeit fainted. I used Sacred Ash and they came back. You could do whatever you want with the Ash actually; if you leave the Tower without reviving your Pokemon, they’ll be erased from your team for good and left to rest in peace. The Ash remains in your pocket and cannot be thrown away. But I was touched to have my little guys again, how could I not use it? Next time you go that deep in the Unknown Dungeon, there’ll be a tombstone where Mewtwo’s sprite used to be. When you interact with it, “Mewww…” will appear in your window with Mew’s cry.

Everyone remembers Mewtwo from the R/B/Y days. We remember him as the strongest Pokemon in the world, topped only by Arceus, God Himself. We remember him from the movie, an angsty experiment who questioned his purpose in life. It’s because of that incarnate of Mewtwo that we forget an important piece of information from the Pokedex: Mewtwo is a Pokémon that was created by genetic manipulation. However, even though the scientific power of humans created this Pokémon’s body, they failed to endow Mewtwo with a compassionate heart.

We take Mewtwo for granted. We brag about how we caught him with a simple Pokeball, and in later generations, we didn’t need to chuck the Master Ball at him anymore. Is Mewtwo truly as “savage” as he lives up to be? What happened to him in the last ending? By forgiving Mewtwo of his atrocities upon my Pokemon, did he kill himself to redeem his soul? Or is he still a monster? Did he become weary and bored of the chase and decided to end it? What does Mew play in all this, and what about my starter? Is the latter reborn each time he dies or does a “clone” take his place? What was on this person’s mind while this hack got made?

I know better now than to dismiss Mewtwo. For this, though this hacked game terrifies me to this day, I am grateful.

[zappyspiker]

Oh so this is where the thread is now

I saw that first one and thought I read it already but I was wrong but I loved it!
That second one was pretty good and I kinda got it but not sure.

A few more have been coming on the site I found this the better out of the new ones that came out today


“Pardon me, Sir. How much do you want for this?”
“S’free, take it.”
“What? Are you sure? I can pay you f—-“
“I said you can take it! Now get out of here!”
The above was a brief exchange of words between a very edgy young man, possibly in his late twenties, and myself at a yard sale I happened by. I always find the most interesting things at yard sales and flea markets. I’m normally there for books, but I’ll occasionally happen across something else that I find worth my time.
I didn’t find any books this time around; the entire sale seemed to be comprised of children’s toys, clothes for both little boys and little girls, as well as some items I’d expect a young married woman to use. Silken night clothes, stacks of cheesy romance novels that I had no interest in (I can’t read pure romance, I need something like murder or mystery to make it interesting), jewelry, as well as several cases of makeup, most of which appeared to be half used.
I found the used makeup to be in bad taste. If you no longer had a use for it, throw it away. Don’t try to pedal what’s touched your face to other people…it’s disgusting. I kept these thoughts to myself, however, as the man running the small junk sale seemed far from stable.
As I was about to leave, something blue peeking out from underneath a small grey bunny plush caught my eye. Colors always catch my attention, especially blue, so I lifted the plush to examine it. To my surprise, it was a Pokemon Blue game. Not that I had been looking for one, but I felt like experiencing a little nostalgia…even though the first generation of games wasn’t my favorite, it reflects back to a much simpler time in my life.
The cartridge had the word ‘Tears’ written neatly in black across the image of the Blastoise. I assumed it was a nickname of some sort, perhaps the previous owner of the game cried a lot. It was within a bunch of child things, perhaps they were young enough to be labeled a ‘crybaby’ by others and ‘Tears’ was just a nicer name…I’m not sure. Anyway, I got the game for free, but I left a dollar on the table just so I’d feel better for taking it.
When I got home, I inserted the game in my SP and turned it on. The sound at the start up screen was greatly distorted…it sort of fluctuated from being several tones lower than normal to being nothing more than a low rumble…it was…unsettling to say the least. Naturally, I assumed the game was faulty, but I thought I’d play through until something froze up on me.
The previous owner, this ‘Tears’ person, still had a game on file (as would be expected with a used game) but no information about playtime, character name, or anything else of that sort was displayed when that option was highlighted. Curious, I chose the previously started game, just to see where they were with everything. A child was bound to have an interesting game with creative names…Insight into the innocent mindset that was slowly becoming rarer with each passing year…
Upon choosing the previously saved game, I was met with a black screen and silence. I felt disappointed; the game seemed to already have messed up on me. I was just about to turn it off when I dialogue box popped up.
I began to read, but the text was moving painstakingly slow:
……….
I’ve been robbed of everything…
My title as champion…
My grandfather’s respect…
…Even my Pokemon are dead because of you…
…I won’t stand for this…
I will come to find you.
I was confused…who was speaking? Who were they speaking to? My heart rate had picked up out of what I assumed was fear…it had been a while, but I knew this wasn’t normal… but curiosity continued to keep me locked onto the game.
As the black screen faded away, the music belonging to the inside of the Pokemon Tower began playing perfectly…the sound obviously wasn’t as broken as it appeared to be at the beginning.
The scene revealed when the black faded was that of the appropriate are, the Pokemon Tower. The not-so-familiar-to-me sprite of your in-game rival, Blue, was standing in front of one of the many graves inside the tower. He stayed there for several minutes, the disturbing music continuing to play throughout his silence, before he finally said something, “…This ends today…for the both of us.”
With that, he left the tower, my screen followed him. As he stood outside the tower, the music did not change to Lavender Town’s normal depressing music…rather, the haunting tune from inside the graveyard continued to play through on a loop…as much as I wanted to turn down the music, I couldn’t bring myself to do so.
I couldn’t move the character after that. I couldn’t tell if it was another assumed glitch of the clearly hacked game, or if it was hesitation on the characters part. After another minute, he finally spoke again, “…Fly…” Even though there was no voice connected to the character in the game, with the speed in which the text moved, there was an almost obvious feel of depression about him.
I opened the start menu and checked Blue’s party, all he had was a Pidgeot which had no level…I checked its stats, the only move it knew was the requested action of ‘fly’, and all its stats (except for health) were at zero. Odd as I found this, I didn’t question it and chose to fly.
When the map opened up, it was black save for one small square that was marked ‘Mt. Silver’…I knew this was impossible. Mt. Silver was in Johto which had yet to be introduced in the original pokemon games…regardless, it was my only destination, so I chose it. The typical animation of the trainer sprite turning into the bird sprite and flying off took place and, sure enough, I landed in front of the cave entrance to Mt. Silver.
Rather than having the sprite shift back to Blue’s sprite, his image moved to the left of Pidgeot’s sprite. They faced each other for a minute before a sound much like that of entering or exiting a room played but in a much higher tone. It sounded as if something had broken.
When Blue spoke yet again, “Fly away, you’re free…” I began to assume the noise was the sound of a pokeball breaking. The Pidgeot cried out once before doing as its former master commanded and flying away. After his final pokemon flew away, the haunting music continuing to play, he faced the entrance, “…I’m coming for you…”
I now had the impression that this was a mission of revenge…and with the way he was speaking, it was revenge of the darkest sort. It dawned on me to check the items he had on him, I don’t know why this thought crossed my mind…but given the ongoing circumstances, I felt there would be something there. And there was.
There was only one item in the list, KNIFE, an item that certainly wasn’t programmed into the game under normal circumstances. Anytime I picked the option to use it just to see what it did, Blue said “Not yet…” After that, I was unable to control the character anymore. It was as if he wanted me to get him there and see his single item just to get the gist of what he may be planning, but that was it…the rest was all his own.
Blue stepped into the cave and as he trekked through the stone maze of the cave, he never encountered any pokemon, but I could faintly hear distorted cries mixed in with the music…I’m not sure, but I believe they could feel the negative emotions coming off blue…and they cried out in concern.
Finally, he reached the chamber that harbored Red in the Gold and Silver games. Blue’s pace slowed a little as he approached his rival, and the music, dark as it was already, lowered considerably making it infinitely darker…
As the two Rivals faced each other and Red simply greeted Blue with the silence I had become accustomed to in Pokemon Gold. However, Blue didn’t take to this very well as he shouted in apparent anger, “Don’t ignore me like you have everything and everyone else!”
A battle ensued but the normal music didn’t play, the darkened music of the Pokemon Tower continued. By this time, other people were home and were becoming quite annoyed with the volume of my music, so I was forced to put in headphones as I still couldn’t bring myself to actually lower the volume…disturbing as it was, the music had some sort of hold on me.
I stared at the game screen as the battle opened up. Obviously, since Blue had no pokemon, he never called anything out. Neither did Red. In the battle option box, the four options of ‘fight, PKMN, Item, and run’ weren’t all there; all there was to choose at the moment was ‘Item’ so, obviously, he chose it.
The only item there to use was the one I had mentioned before, KNIFE. It was quickly selected on its own and went back to the battle scene; now the only battle option available was ‘Fight’. In the fight menu, Blue only had one attack at his disposal…MURDER…I couldn’t regain control of the game, there was no option to run, I couldn’t bring myself to turn the game off and end what had quickly become a disturbing experience…the only choice there was was to sit there and allow Blue murder Red.
After selecting the attack, Blue shouted, “This is for everything!” and a typical attack animation much like tackle played out only, instead of a single strike, Blue attacked repeatedly. The dark music in the background began to pick up its pace and become more high-pitched…it was painful to listen to as it reverberated through my headphones, but I never removed them.
Red’s sprite flickered in and out as he took the damage and, as his health dwindled to zero; a gurgled screeching noise broke through the noise of the music, replacing it only briefly as Red’s sprite faded into something that looked more like a decaying body before fading away completely with the screech.
My heart was pounding, I was beginning to get a throbbing headache, and yet my eyes remained glued to the screen as the remainder of the scene played out. As the music replaced the screen once again, another dialogue box popped up as Blue spoke yet again.
“……………………………………
…………………………….
…………………….
See you in hell…”
The battle options box popped up again, ‘fight’ remaining the only option. Blue selected it yet again, but instead of ‘MURDER’ the attack option available was ‘SUICIDE’. There was a moment of hesitation, but Blue finally attacked himself with less fury than he had Red. As his own health fell to zero, a lower gurgled screech replaced the high-pitched pokemon tower music, his sprite faded away. Only…when the ‘decayed’ sprite faded in, he wasn’t facing the battlefield…
He faced me.
His screech continued on, growing in volume to the point where the pain it caused equaled that of a migraine…and yet I still kept the headphones in. My eyes locked onto the dead, hollow eyes of Blue as he continued to scream, before the screen began to flicker. It was slow at first, but it quickly picked up to a rapid strobe effect. The ‘scream’ grew in volume and pitch one more time before the screen simply cut to black.
I held my breath, my heart pounded so hard against my chest that it hurt…I deeply hoped that it was over but…considering the fact that I couldn’t move…or even hear any noise outside of my headphones, I fearfully assumed that it wasn’t…and I was right.
White lettering began slowly typing out across the black screen and, as each word formed, I read:
“I finally got my revenge.
The life YOU ruined as now faded away.
But don’t think it’s over yet.
My suffering has ended, but yours has only begun.
I’ll be watching your strife with a grin on my face.
And when it all ends…
…
I’ll see you in hell…”
Though I had a full battery just a moment ago, the light turned red and the system turned off…and my nose began to spill blood for several minutes…I…I’ll never be able to describe the terror I felt afterwards…I’ll never be able to describe the terror I still feel…
You see, the very next day on the news, they announced that the very same man I purchased the game from, I won’t release his name, had called the police saying that he had killed his wife three days prior and buried her in the back yard…When they reached his house, they had found him by the phone, dead…he had slit his throat and committed suicide. It was also mentioned that, several weeks ago, his eight year-old son had murdered their six year-old son and then killed himself…
I assume that the game had done all this…and I’m next…I don’t know how much longer I have…nor do I know who will die at my hand…but you deserve to know this…
Never play Blue Tears.

[Hybrid Trainer]

Now that is some seriously good CreepyPasta.
I'm guessing that this happens during the second set of credits after you've defeated RED.
Anyway keep them coming, there all gona get put on the site sooner or later :P

[dragonomega]

Well im not gonna sleep tonight D:, It's lame I know but everything scares me 0.0

But I need to read them (: I heard about "Creepy Black" before and I've also seen it in my local second hand game shop. Should of got it D:

[zappyspiker]

Only one came out this morning and there was one that I di dn't post but they didn't really compare to Blue Tears

Kangaskhan that never Was
Kangaskhan are widely known as one of the more maternal Pokemon than others. The baby Kangaskhan is born into the mother’s pouch and lives off its mother’s milk to grow the natural muscles and gain the proper nutrients for growth. When the baby grows too big for its mother’s pouch, is when the baby can leave and start defending for itself.
But what happens if the mother dies during the baby’s first few months of life? The baby hasn’t any muscles nor defensive plates like its mother to defend itself. Stranded, the baby waits by its mother’s carcass, fending off insect Pokemon and other scavengers, protecting its only home and source of comfort. As the mother’s muscles soften, the baby feeds off the body, but because it’s not the mother’s special milk, the baby will never grow to be the size of a full grown Kangaskhan. Barely staying alive by feeding off its mother’s body, the baby waits patiently for the carcass to decompose. When the body is nothing but bones and body plates, the baby takes the skull and a bone from the arm, fitting the skull of its mother on its head like a helmet. At first, the helmet is very large and sits on the baby’s shoulders, but eventually as it grows, it will grow to fit in the helmet. Using the bone from the arm as a weapon, the baby slowly turns into a Cubone, a malnourished, orphaned baby Kangaskhan. Cubone prefer to be alone and cry at the moon because the texture of the moon reminds the once baby Kangaskhan of its mothers skin and defense plates. When the Cubone reaches a certain age, it evolves into a Marowak, or what is considered the ghost of a Kangaskhan that never was.


Banette creepypasta
It was her favorite doll. She took it everywhere, clutching it tight in her small hands. The doll did everything with her. It went to school, sleepovers, dinners, and even tagged along for baths.

The two were inseparable. She even claimed the first day she became a trainer; she’d still carry it around to remember her childhood.

The doll might have been a bit odd looking, but that didn’t change anything. It’s what she liked, made the doll truly unique.

But as years went on, she found interest in other dolls. It didn’t make sense, junking the old doll for new ones.

Yet, worn and dirty with age, the doll was sent away.

It lay in the dumpster, surrounded by trash bags and food wrappers. Not where it belonged, not at all.

Slowly, the arms twitched, fingers clawing into the trash bags. Its eyes were an angry red, the zipper-mouth turning into an angry scowl.

Banette rose from the dumpster, ready to find that little girl who threw it away.


The neighborhood – it hadn’t changed a bit. How long had it been, anyway? Banette surely couldn’t have been in there that long. It’d find that sweet little girl again and cuddle right back up in her arms.

Trash – what a joke. How could someone throw it away? A favorite should not be treated this way. You always kept your favorite; you never tossed it away.

The grudge grew stronger as the familiar houses of the block came into view. Her house wasn’t far; just a few more to pass by.

At last, it came into view. The window was opened, letting the warm summer breeze pass through.

To Banette’s disgust, new dolls littered the floor of her room. Other Pokemon, all new and fresh, not a stain on them, all set perfectly in a row.

Its owner wasn’t so little anymore; it had been a few years. Banette floated over to the calendar; tomorrow was her tenth birthday. She’d be a trainer tomorrow.

Banette slashed its claws through the calendar. A trainer? No chance at that.

The slashing continued, slitting all of the dolls “throats”. Stuffing pooled out, the dolls landing on the floor silently.

No, no, this wasn’t enough. The girl would get new dolls, and these ones would end up in the dumpster as well.

There was a simple solution to that, at least.

Claws tore through flesh, leaving a clean, long cut down her neck.

The girl would never, ever abandon her dolls ever again.

@Dragonomega:
Don't worry, thats a natural reaction for people who have just read a bunch of horror stories about something that played a big part in there childhood.
@Zappyspiker:
I read the kangaskan one on DA a few minutes before you posted that, and i must say its one of the best versions of the cubone kangaskan connection i have ever read!
and that banette one, all i can say it ditto to the above.
These will all go into the theories section of the site.
Keep these coming zappy you goldminer :P

[zappyspiker]

Heh we're the ones keepin this thread alive! Hopefully more will on the site later today or tomorrow

[redsaber5859]

I have an idea... Since PC is a ROM hacking community, why don't we make a creepypasta game? I would proudly do it!

[Forever]

...that Kangaskhan one is soooo sad. ;;
(mainly because I love both kanga and cubone sooo...!)

That doesn't really explain Marowak though :(

[Hybrid Trainer]

Heh we're the ones keepin this thread alive! Hopefully more will on the site later today or tomorrow
Well i don't really care, if it only takes two people to keep a thread alive then thats all i'd want :P
I have an idea... Since PC is a ROM hacking community, why don't we make a creepypasta game? I would proudly do it!
They are making a creepypasta game. There is a stand alone Lost Silver game out there (you can find it on youtube) And there is going to be a Pokemon Creepy Black ROM Hack but thats been put on hold while the people who made Lost SIlver and the people that are making Pokemon Creepy Black colaberate and make a stand alone version of Creepy Black.
However if Pokemon Creepy Black (ROM) had more experienced ASM editors on its team it would carry on with progress.
...that Kangaskhan one is soooo sad. ;;
(mainly because I love both kanga and cubone sooo...!)

That doesn't really explain Marowak though :(
Well it kinda does, the only main difference between cubone and marowak is that the skull is a tighter fit so all it has really done has grown up really.

[redsaber5859]

I mean, a ROM hack with all of the hacks

we could make one with the "come follow me..."
or with a cutscene about Kanghaskan, etc.

[Hybrid Trainer]

That would be an AWESOME hack but it would only really work if it was on a Pokemon Red Rom, Not Fire red and its hard to find people who know how to hack GEN 1 games.
But if you know anyone that could insert stuff like the Buryman script (not the part that edits the gameboy though) and whithand and stuff like that then go ahead, it would be great.

[dragonomega]

(: Why can't I stop reading 0.o but honestly the only one that scared me was the Lost silver one...
Tarnished Silver was freaky and good chill, The worst part was about the photo of the girl the image made me want to be sick :S But there made for scaring and that's what they do (:

[Hybrid Trainer]

The worst part was about the photo of the girl the image made me want to be sick :S
You obviously have never lived next to a funeral directors XD dead bodies every where!

(: Why can't I stop reading 0.o but honestly the only one that scared me was the Lost silver one...
Well thats quite odd because most people feel sad at that one, not scared :/

[redsaber5859]

Well thats quite odd because most people feel sad at that one, not scared :/
Where is lost silver? I've been looking for it all over!

Look at the guys channel as well, he's starting to make a CreepyBlack stand alone version you might find interesting.

[Shanghai Alice]

...

Those became progressively scarier...

Once I had started Lost Silver, I put on some music, just so I wouldn't stain my pants when the garage door opens. -_-



Double creepiness? I tried to look up the original Lavender Town music, and YT encountered an error.

I CRASHED YOUTUBE.

How old are you? If over 15 then give up on hearing it.

[Shanghai Alice]

15 and a half.

I... actually could hear it. I felt mildly grungy (Like that Waking-up-in-the-car feeling), but, because I've had enough of headaches and illness lately, and I'd rather not mess with things like this...

Actually, I listened to it backwards. Thrice. All I felt was a mild headache, probably caused by a psychological desire to have one.

[zappyspiker]

Cause I started Pokemon when G/S/C came out I never really heard the Lavender town music. I only played Red when I once borriwed it from my cousin so I wasn't very familiar with it that's why most of the Lavender Town stories didn't have much effect on me

I mean, a ROM hack with all of the hacks


I can imagine it now Pokemon Creepypasta - Haha no better name XD
But I would love to do all a ROM with all the creepypasta combined!

The lost silver game can be found in this youtube videos description.

My friend at another forum. She loves Pokemon Creepypasta just as much as I do. She just got 1000 subs on youtube and she did this for her 1000 Sub special but she made it sound more funny than scary. We constantly trade Pokemon Creepypasta with each other


2 more Creepypasta!

Finally Free!
It started out innocently enough.
I bought a cart of Fire Red from my local GameStop. But let me stop you there. This isn’t your average, “Someone made a really twisted hack and I happened to have the misfortune to buy it.” No, it was just Fire Red. I wanted it because I had a DS Lite, and therefore, a GBA port to transfer those ‘mons from my Kanto adventure and unlock certain pokemon in my Diamond version.
I checked the cart as soon as I got home, much like anyone else who buys a pre-played game. I’m not saying the last owner didn’t know what he was doing, but his team was a little mediocre. He was on the bridge just south of Lavender Town, and his strongest pokemon were a level 36 Blastoise, and a Snorlax. I don’t remember the details very clearly on the rest of the team, nor on the Snorlax’s status very clearly. I decided to start over.
I renamed my trainer Satoshi, after the original Japanese name of Ash Ketchum. Everything is fine when I play the game. I’ve just made it to Viridian forest with my faithful pokemon by my side. Palmer (Male Bulbasaur) and Tarzan (Male Mankey) are both level eight, while Jerry (Male Rattata) and Yari (Male Spearow) are level six. This is where things start going south.
I’ve been feeling very strange recently. All of my free time is now glued to the screen of my Nintendo SP. My pokemon never level up… I can’t find any wild pokemon to fight anymore… The colors are now washed out, almost monochrome now. I can’t hear anything. My character seems listless now, as he’s only moving at about half his normal speed. Viridian Forest won’t let me pass, so I’m going back to Viridian City, and see what’s going on.
As I reach Viridian City, I hear this awful screeching. When my sprite steps inside the city limits, he stops and the screen shakes as a gate materialized behind him. I walk down in the town, trying to get to Pallet, but as I pass by the Pokemon Center, the screen shakes again. I walk down and notice that my path is once again blocked, but this time by boulders. The only option left to me is the Victory Road, even though I don’t have any badges.
I take a chance, and notice that the gate is set up much like in Gold and Silver. I try to go up, but two silent guards keep pushing me away. I try the Mt. Silver path. Again, I meet with resistance. All I can do is go down. But when I exit… This… This isn’t right…
I’m at the Ruins of Alph. How is this possible? This is supposed to be a remake of the first titles. Johto wasn’t even around yet. I then start to hear that haunting melody, the Unown singing their simple little tune. I have no control, Satoshi moves toward the ruins on his own now. As soon as he enters, the screen goes black.
Then I hear the tones… The tones from the Crystal opening. I see eyes at first, before I realize what’s going on. The Unown are trying to speak to me. I look closely and see what they spell…
M.
I.
C.
H.

I’m starting to lose it. Even with the screen still pitch black, my start menu opens by itself, and I am compelled to see if my buddies are still okay. What I see next runs a cold chill down my spine.
My party has been replaced by Unown, all of them level 66 and spelling out the message CHOSEN.
Why me? What have I been chosen for? The screen changes back to black and the tones begin again. I’m glued to the screen. What are they going to tell me next?

I couldn’t believe my eyes. I could feel a warm sensation flowing down my face. Pressing a finger to my lip, I lifted to see something thick and red. It was blood. I could feel my life force fading as my shirt was stained a deep crimson. I dropped my SP as I fainted dead away onto my bed.
When I woke up, I noticed that maybe an hour or two had passed, and my clothes were clean. My SP was still on, and I picked it up. Opening it, I saw something that made a chill run down my spine. I was at the start of a battle with a Ghost, yet despite this being a GameBoy Advance version, I saw the old GB sprite staring at Satoshi. I hit the A button, but nothing happened. I pressed it again, and noticed that the music had shifted slightly higher in pitch, the Ghost turning slightly. Now panicking, I jam on the A button rapidly, causing the music to rise steadily and the Ghost to turn to face me.
Satoshi faded from sight. The Ghost got bigger and bigger until it’s chilling dead eyes were staring at me from behind the screen, it’s mouth twisted in that devilish grin.
A text box opened right underneath it’s mouth:
“Michael… You don’t exist anymore. You belong to me now. Now DIE and fade away…”
I heard an ear-splitting scream. Everything went black.




I woke up in a cold sweat, yet now feel hollow inside. A grin creeps across my face as I realize it worked. People on the streets now recoil when they see my darkened face. Whenever someone cries out in terror, I laugh like a madman. In my hand, I grip that now bloody red cartridge, and I will never let go. After all, even if his body is mine, I can’t give Michael to just anybody…


Pokemon Green
For as long as I could remember, my friends and I were crazy for Pokemon. We played all the games, watched the anime, and traded the cards. However as time went on, some of them lost interest but my love for Pokemon was still as strong as ever, even as a college student.

One day, I was feeling nostalgic for the classic Pokemon games. I lost my Pokemon Blue a few years back, I lent out Yellow to a friend of mine who never gave it back, and my Silver and Crystal games had long since died. I went out to just about every store in town but no one seemed to have any of the old games (the oldest they had was Ruby). I looked around online for ROMs but none of them ever worked. So I decided to head over to eBay as my final option. They have everything there.

I managed to find a person selling a collection of all the Pokemon games. From Red to Soul Silver and it even included Pokemon Green, all for just one dollar! What a steal! So, I bought it. If they turned out to be bootlegs or they just don’t work, no hard feelings. I only paid a buck for it anyway.

The next day, my package arrived. I went up to my room and tore up the package. All my games were there. Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver, Crystal, Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Fire Red, Leaf Green, Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, Heart Gold, Soul Silver, and of course, Pokemon Green. I grabbed the game and held it up to my face. The cartridge was a clear green colour and the sticker had a picture of Venusaur with the English Pokemon logo on it. “That’s odd. I thought Pokemon Green wasn’t released in English,” I thought to myself. By then I realized that this was a bootleg but I didn’t care. I was more than curious to know what this game was like. I grabbed my SP, put in the cartridge, plugged in my earphones and turned on the game. Everything was normal. The intro was the same as the other two games. Same clips, same music. The logo that showed up was the English Pokemon logo with an image of Red and Venusaur. The music was fine too so nothing out of the ordinary. Maybe this was a translated version of Green? I pressed A and got taken to the menu. As I thought, the menu was in English. The original person who owned the game had a save file already on it. The character’s name was “Leaf”. “Leaf eh? I guess this person was a fan of Leaf from the remade games” I thought. I pressed A on the file and the screen went black. But nothing happened. The screen was black and had no music playing in the background. I thought the game had froze. I was about to turn it off but a text box finally appeared.

“……………………”

“……………………”

“………………………………”

“I WILL HAVE MY REVENGE”

The screen was still black but a sprite had appeared. It wasn’t a sprite I was familiar with in the games. But closer examination made me realize that it was Leaf from the remade games. “What the hell? Since when was there an option for choosing a female character in these games?” I said. I wasn’t able to move around but I was able to work the menu. I had a look at her trainer card. She had all the badges, full money, and a time of 999:99. Her sprite was indeed Leaf. She was wearing the same clothes as Green from the early chapters of the Pokemon Special manga. I exited the trainer card and went to her party in hopes I could probably fly out of this place. She only had a Blastoise at Lvl. 0 and it only knew Fly. I tried to select the attack but Leaf wouldn’t let me leave. A text box saying, “Not yet…” would always pop up. I went into her bag and she only had one item called “KNIFE”. Clearly whoever made this hack was ****ed up.

After exiting the menu, I was able to walk again. But still, I wasn’t going anywhere. I was just walking around in darkness. After walking for five minutes, the screen went completely black. I was now inside Professor Oak’s lab. Oak wasn’t there but Red and Blue were. The music playing in the background a creepy slowed version of the Pokemon Tower music. Leaf started walking up towards the two boys. A text box popped up that read out, “Blue: Leaf?! Leaf what are you doing here?!” Red, being the silent protagonist he is, only said, “…” After that, we were locked into a battle. I was battling Red and Blue as a team. Red sent out Venusaur while Blue sent out Charizard. Both their Pokemon were Lvl. 100 while my Blastoise was a mere Lvl. 0 so I automatically knew that I was going to lose. I only had the option to fight. The options, BAG, PKMN, and RUN were not there. I selected fight and game started working on its own. Blastoise went first and attacked them both with Earthquake, a move that it didn’t even know in the first place. Even more surprising, both of them died. Not fainted, but died. The battle wasn’t over though. The sprites for Red and Blue showed up and now I had to fight them. However, when I tried to attack, Blastoise used Struggle on itself and then died. Leaf’s sprite then returned. The only option I now had was BAG. I opened the bag and selected the only item there, “KNIFE”. The text then stated, “LEAF USED KNIFE!” The attack used the animation as if a Pokemon used Fury Attack. The attack did damage to both characters. Blue was the first to go down and the text said, “BLUE HAS DIED!” Red was the next to go and the text said, “RED HAS DIED!” After that, the screen faded to a black screen.

A few seconds had passed and a text box showed up once again.

“You thought I wasn’t important. You thought I wasn’t good enough. Good enough to be included into the game. You thought girls wouldn’t want to play this game. So you shoved me into a slot. A slot filled empty and unused data. But no more! Now that your beloved male characters are gone, you will be FORCED to play me. You will play the game MY way!!”

After I pressed A, a loud shriek was played. The shriek was so loud that I shut my eyes and my ears were being damaged. I quickly pulled out my earphones and threw everything across the room but I could still hear the loud shriek. It was becoming louder and louder. I couldn’t take it anymore. I began to scream.

My eyes fluttered open. I looked around my room. Everything was normal. It was just a dream. I looked at my clock; it was exactly 10 in the morning. I heard the mail box downstairs so I got out of bed and went to the door. I went outside and went through the mail box. I picked up a brown package. “Oh yeah, I purchased the games yesterday morning,” I said to myself. I brought the package to my room and tore it open. I saw all the games. I saw something shiny underneath the games. It was a clear, green cartridge with a sticker that had Venusaur with the logo, Pokemon Green…

That first one seemed pretty unrealistice to me but I kinda liked Pokemon Green Though I wish it had a little bit more to it. It makes me wonder what would've happened if he chose the other games than green

[last fighter 36]

The rival was not scary but the silver,corps and black almost made me scream i almost fell unconscious in my floor and i could,n sleep.

[redsaber5859]

Cause I started Pokemon when G/S/C came out I never really heard the Lavender town music. I only played Red when I once borriwed it from my cousin so I wasn't very familiar with it that's why most of the Lavender Town stories didn't have much effect on me



I can imagine it now Pokemon Creepypasta - Haha no better name XD
But I would love to do all a ROM with all the creepypasta combined!



My friend at another forum. She loves Pokemon Creepypasta just as much as I do. She just got 1000 subs on youtube and she did this for her 1000 Sub special but she made it sound more funny than scary. We constantly trade Pokemon Creepypasta with each other


2 more Creepypasta!

Finally Free!
It started out innocently enough.
I bought a cart of Fire Red from my local GameStop. But let me stop you there. This isn’t your average, “Someone made a really twisted hack and I happened to have the misfortune to buy it.” No, it was just Fire Red. I wanted it because I had a DS Lite, and therefore, a GBA port to transfer those ‘mons from my Kanto adventure and unlock certain pokemon in my Diamond version.
I checked the cart as soon as I got home, much like anyone else who buys a pre-played game. I’m not saying the last owner didn’t know what he was doing, but his team was a little mediocre. He was on the bridge just south of Lavender Town, and his strongest pokemon were a level 36 Blastoise, and a Snorlax. I don’t remember the details very clearly on the rest of the team, nor on the Snorlax’s status very clearly. I decided to start over.
I renamed my trainer Satoshi, after the original Japanese name of Ash Ketchum. Everything is fine when I play the game. I’ve just made it to Viridian forest with my faithful pokemon by my side. Palmer (Male Bulbasaur) and Tarzan (Male Mankey) are both level eight, while Jerry (Male Rattata) and Yari (Male Spearow) are level six. This is where things start going south.
I’ve been feeling very strange recently. All of my free time is now glued to the screen of my Nintendo SP. My pokemon never level up… I can’t find any wild pokemon to fight anymore… The colors are now washed out, almost monochrome now. I can’t hear anything. My character seems listless now, as he’s only moving at about half his normal speed. Viridian Forest won’t let me pass, so I’m going back to Viridian City, and see what’s going on.
As I reach Viridian City, I hear this awful screeching. When my sprite steps inside the city limits, he stops and the screen shakes as a gate materialized behind him. I walk down in the town, trying to get to Pallet, but as I pass by the Pokemon Center, the screen shakes again. I walk down and notice that my path is once again blocked, but this time by boulders. The only option left to me is the Victory Road, even though I don’t have any badges.
I take a chance, and notice that the gate is set up much like in Gold and Silver. I try to go up, but two silent guards keep pushing me away. I try the Mt. Silver path. Again, I meet with resistance. All I can do is go down. But when I exit… This… This isn’t right…
I’m at the Ruins of Alph. How is this possible? This is supposed to be a remake of the first titles. Johto wasn’t even around yet. I then start to hear that haunting melody, the Unown singing their simple little tune. I have no control, Satoshi moves toward the ruins on his own now. As soon as he enters, the screen goes black.
Then I hear the tones… The tones from the Crystal opening. I see eyes at first, before I realize what’s going on. The Unown are trying to speak to me. I look closely and see what they spell…

I’m starting to lose it. Even with the screen still pitch black, my start menu opens by itself, and I am compelled to see if my buddies are still okay. What I see next runs a cold chill down my spine.
My party has been replaced by Unown, all of them level 66 and spelling out the message CHOSEN.
Why me? What have I been chosen for? The screen changes back to black and the tones begin again. I’m glued to the screen. What are they going to tell me next?

I couldn’t believe my eyes. I could feel a warm sensation flowing down my face. Pressing a finger to my lip, I lifted to see something thick and red. It was blood. I could feel my life force fading as my shirt was stained a deep crimson. I dropped my SP as I fainted dead away onto my bed.
When I woke up, I noticed that maybe an hour or two had passed, and my clothes were clean. My SP was still on, and I picked it up. Opening it, I saw something that made a chill run down my spine. I was at the start of a battle with a Ghost, yet despite this being a GameBoy Advance version, I saw the old GB sprite staring at Satoshi. I hit the A button, but nothing happened. I pressed it again, and noticed that the music had shifted slightly higher in pitch, the Ghost turning slightly. Now panicking, I jam on the A button rapidly, causing the music to rise steadily and the Ghost to turn to face me.
Satoshi faded from sight. The Ghost got bigger and bigger until it’s chilling dead eyes were staring at me from behind the screen, it’s mouth twisted in that devilish grin.
A text box opened right underneath it’s mouth:
“Michael… You don’t exist anymore. You belong to me now. Now DIE and fade away…”
I heard an ear-splitting scream. Everything went black.




I woke up in a cold sweat, yet now feel hollow inside. A grin creeps across my face as I realize it worked. People on the streets now recoil when they see my darkened face. Whenever someone cries out in terror, I laugh like a madman. In my hand, I grip that now bloody red cartridge, and I will never let go. After all, even if his body is mine, I can’t give Michael to just anybody…


Pokemon Green
For as long as I could remember, my friends and I were crazy for Pokemon. We played all the games, watched the anime, and traded the cards. However as time went on, some of them lost interest but my love for Pokemon was still as strong as ever, even as a college student.

One day, I was feeling nostalgic for the classic Pokemon games. I lost my Pokemon Blue a few years back, I lent out Yellow to a friend of mine who never gave it back, and my Silver and Crystal games had long since died. I went out to just about every store in town but no one seemed to have any of the old games (the oldest they had was Ruby). I looked around online for ROMs but none of them ever worked. So I decided to head over to eBay as my final option. They have everything there.

I managed to find a person selling a collection of all the Pokemon games. From Red to Soul Silver and it even included Pokemon Green, all for just one dollar! What a steal! So, I bought it. If they turned out to be bootlegs or they just don’t work, no hard feelings. I only paid a buck for it anyway.

The next day, my package arrived. I went up to my room and tore up the package. All my games were there. Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver, Crystal, Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Fire Red, Leaf Green, Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, Heart Gold, Soul Silver, and of course, Pokemon Green. I grabbed the game and held it up to my face. The cartridge was a clear green colour and the sticker had a picture of Venusaur with the English Pokemon logo on it. “That’s odd. I thought Pokemon Green wasn’t released in English,” I thought to myself. By then I realized that this was a bootleg but I didn’t care. I was more than curious to know what this game was like. I grabbed my SP, put in the cartridge, plugged in my earphones and turned on the game. Everything was normal. The intro was the same as the other two games. Same clips, same music. The logo that showed up was the English Pokemon logo with an image of Red and Venusaur. The music was fine too so nothing out of the ordinary. Maybe this was a translated version of Green? I pressed A and got taken to the menu. As I thought, the menu was in English. The original person who owned the game had a save file already on it. The character’s name was “Leaf”. “Leaf eh? I guess this person was a fan of Leaf from the remade games” I thought. I pressed A on the file and the screen went black. But nothing happened. The screen was black and had no music playing in the background. I thought the game had froze. I was about to turn it off but a text box finally appeared.

“……………………”

“……………………”

“………………………………”

“I WILL HAVE MY REVENGE”

The screen was still black but a sprite had appeared. It wasn’t a sprite I was familiar with in the games. But closer examination made me realize that it was Leaf from the remade games. “What the hell? Since when was there an option for choosing a female character in these games?” I said. I wasn’t able to move around but I was able to work the menu. I had a look at her trainer card. She had all the badges, full money, and a time of 999:99. Her sprite was indeed Leaf. She was wearing the same clothes as Green from the early chapters of the Pokemon Special manga. I exited the trainer card and went to her party in hopes I could probably fly out of this place. She only had a Blastoise at Lvl. 0 and it only knew Fly. I tried to select the attack but Leaf wouldn’t let me leave. A text box saying, “Not yet…” would always pop up. I went into her bag and she only had one item called “KNIFE”. Clearly whoever made this hack was ****ed up.

After exiting the menu, I was able to walk again. But still, I wasn’t going anywhere. I was just walking around in darkness. After walking for five minutes, the screen went completely black. I was now inside Professor Oak’s lab. Oak wasn’t there but Red and Blue were. The music playing in the background a creepy slowed version of the Pokemon Tower music. Leaf started walking up towards the two boys. A text box popped up that read out, “Blue: Leaf?! Leaf what are you doing here?!” Red, being the silent protagonist he is, only said, “…” After that, we were locked into a battle. I was battling Red and Blue as a team. Red sent out Venusaur while Blue sent out Charizard. Both their Pokemon were Lvl. 100 while my Blastoise was a mere Lvl. 0 so I automatically knew that I was going to lose. I only had the option to fight. The options, BAG, PKMN, and RUN were not there. I selected fight and game started working on its own. Blastoise went first and attacked them both with Earthquake, a move that it didn’t even know in the first place. Even more surprising, both of them died. Not fainted, but died.

Blue was the first to go down and the text said, “BLUE HAS DIED!” Red was the next to go and the text said, “RED HAS DIED!” After that, the screen faded to a black screen.

“You thought I wasn’t important. You thought I wasn’t good enough. Good enough to be included into the game. You thought girls wouldn’t want to play this game. So you shoved me into a slot. A slot filled empty and unused data. But no more! Now that your beloved male characters are gone, you will be FORCED to play me. You will play the game MY way!!”

After I pressed A, a loud shriek was played. The shriek was so loud that I shut my eyes and my ears were being damaged. I quickly pulled out my earphones and threw everything across the room but I could still hear the loud shriek. It was becoming louder and louder. I couldn’t take it anymore. I began to scream.

Thats good! If any of you guys can hack-we can make a CreepyPasta hack series!

Guys, after reading a few other forums...

If you're planning on listening to the Lavender Town song...

Please listen to me.

1. It's real. This isn't like those "A ghost will come..." things. This is caused by sound waves and your mind. Please remember that.

2. Do NOT listen to it with headphones. Do you really want a severe headache, and possibly worse? Binaural beats are real, kids, and this song is loaded with 'em.

3. Personally, I tend to avoid anything that messes with the head, just because the brain is so delicate. Keep that in mind, okay?

The effect is real. If you listen to it with headphones, people have been feeling the effects...

Be careful, okay?

Any links with proof? I talked to the guy that made those videos, he said binaural beats are harmless, and don't really do much (if at all) to the brain, but a really annoying loud sound when headphones are used.

Sorry if I'm implying you're not serious, I just want to see where people have said these videos are harmful.

Granted, that's taking the Bulbagarden Community's word, but...

Well, when it comes to anything with the brain, I tend to panic.

...I like my brain.

Also, countered with Wikipedia.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binaural_beats


Additionally, a large part of it is the fact that the listener wants it to be real. Yes, the placebo effect has been mentioned, but if there actually is anything to the song, the psychological desire will amplify it.


...I'm probably overreacting, though. I've been fairly irritable and jumpy all day.

I am 12, and I have heard the binaral tunes many a time. I am actually making a piece of music with the V1 Lavender town, and my brain processes-differently you could say. I enjoy the music, and all I get is a SMALL headache. I love being 2E

Oh, also, I know the whole "White Hand" thing isn't real. I'm not... Well, I'm not that stupid.

And I don't believe people will die or have seizures over this. But you never know. The mind is a funny thing.

[dabridge]

The placeboo effect is probably the only thing to watch out for, and even then I can't see it making a lot of damage if at all.

Besides, people listening with headphones know what they're getting themselves into by scaring themselves so much.

True.

I'm the kind of person that hates being scared, and yet... V_V

Blastoise went first and attacked them both with Earthquake, a move that it didn’t even know in the first place. Even more surprising, both of them died. Not fainted, but died. The battle wasn’t over though. The sprites for Red and Blue showed up and now I had to fight them. However, when I tried to attack, Blastoise used Struggle on itself and then died. Leaf’s sprite then returned. The only option I now had was BAG. I opened the bag and selected the only item there, “KNIFE”. The text then stated, “LEAF USED KNIFE!” The attack used the animation as if a Pokemon used Fury Attack. The attack did damage to both characters. Blue was the first to go down and the text said, “BLUE HAS DIED!” Red was the next to go and the text said, “RED HAS DIED!” After that, the screen faded to a black screen.

A few seconds had passed and a text box showed up once again.

“You thought I wasn’t important. You thought I wasn’t good enough. Good enough to be included into the game. You thought girls wouldn’t want to play this game. So you shoved me into a slot. A slot filled empty and unused data. But no more! Now that your beloved male characters are gone, you will be FORCED to play me. You will play the game MY way!!”

After I pressed A, a loud shriek was played. The shriek was so loud that I shut my eyes and my ears were being damaged. I quickly pulled out my earphones and threw everything across the room but I could still hear the loud shriek. It was becoming louder and louder. I couldn’t take it anymore. I began to scream.

My eyes fluttered open. I looked around my room. Everything was normal. It was just a dream. I looked at my clock; it was exactly 10 in the morning. I heard the mail box downstairs so I got out of bed and went to the door. I went outside and went through the mail box. I picked up a brown package. “Oh yeah, I purchased the games yesterday morning,” I said to myself. I brought the package to my room and tore it open. I saw all the games. I saw something shiny underneath the games. It was a clear, green cartridge with a sticker that had Venusaur with the logo, Pokemon Green…

That first one seemed pretty unrealistice to me but I kinda liked Pokemon Green Though I wish it had a little bit more to it. It makes me wonder what would've happened if he chose the other games than green
The first one was ok, it kinda ruined it a lot though when he went from playing on a NDS to a GBA SP. Majoy sign of bad writing.
The second one was a little better, but the whole 'KNIFE in BAG' thing has been done to death now, but at least the reason was different.

Guys, after reading a few other forums...

If you're planning on listening to the Lavender Town song...

Please listen to me.

1. It's real. This isn't like those "A ghost will come..." things. This is caused by sound waves and your mind. Please remember that.

2. Do NOT listen to it with headphones. Do you really want a severe headache, and possibly worse? Binaural beats are real, kids, and this song is loaded with 'em.

3. Personally, I tend to avoid anything that messes with the head, just because the brain is so delicate. Keep that in mind, okay?

The effect is real. If you listen to it with headphones, people have been feeling the effects...

Be careful, okay?
Well the person i'm making the CreepyPasta site with (zukdeen) listened to it about 6 times thorugh headphones and he ended up getting all the symptoms except from the sezier one.


Who gives a **** about Bulbagarden, only Bulbapedia is usefull IMO
As much as i agree with you lets not turn this into a argument thread.

Oh, also, I know the whole "White Hand" thing isn't real. I'm not... Well, I'm not that stupid.

yea it was proven that this one waas fake because gameboy games didn't have files that had file extensions.

True.

I'm the kind of person that hates being scared, and yet... V_V

I CAN'T LOOK AWAAAAAAAAY.
lol same here Shanghai, i read all of these then watch a scray movie and sit there wondering why i can't sleep XD

[zappyspiker]

Thats what I'm doing!

So... I can do a lot, just need a scripter to help with the scripting.

I would help but I'm more of a GFXer/Spriter but if we do decide to make a hack I would help out a bit



The first one was ok, it kinda ruined it a lot though when he went from playing on a NDS to a GBA SP. Majoy sign of bad writing.



I was so confused when they said this lolz I hate it when a story begins with one thing and midway they change it....

[Hybrid Trainer]

Yea, and it looked like he/she tried to change it subtlety as well. He went from Nintendo DS to Nintendo SP to Gameboy. WTF?

[dragonomega]

Finally Free was quite bad :/ I like the one's where it could be true but that one pfft...
He died and then was reborn Asif.!
Alot of other things but Im tired :P

[Hybrid Trainer]

Ano! What was all that about!
I didn't even understand what happened to him. Did he get deformed? has he gone insane? i just don't know.

[Master Bait]

These scary Pokemon stories are win. MAKE MOAR PLZ.

[Hybrid Trainer]

Well baits were not the ones who write the stories, we just post them here for you all to see.
I think there is another creepypasta competition thread floating around on this forum, you can go check there and read some of the entries.

[dragonomega]

I think that the ghost in the game possessed him,
He then goes onto the streets and loves the sound of people being terrified

[Master Bait]

I think that the ghost in the game possessed him,
He then goes onto the streets and loves the sound of people being terrified
Okay that sounds reeeeeally creepy but why the hell would the ghost do that!?

[Hybrid Trainer]

Oh right i get it now, i misunderstood when it said people recoil when they see me.
And baits read the title, that could give you a hint to why the ghost did it.

[Master Bait]

This thread is creepily awesome. brb going the fanfiction section.

[redsaber5859]

Hey, what is you CreepyPasta site? I'm gonna go check it out :D

Said It With A Bullet

About six months ago, I was discussing how amazing it was that the Pokémon anime was still running after all of these years, with a friend of mine. Although I still try to catch it every weekend, this friend had ceased watching back in one of the Johto seasons, due to finding the series repetitive.

"The final straw, though," he said, elaborating on why he no longer watched the series. "was that episode that was basically a snuff film."

Understandably, I scoffed at this premise. "You can't seriously tell me they released a Pokémon snuff cartoon."

He went on to explain that it was a "lost episode" - not too far of a stretch of imagination, seeing as how there were already several episodes that had been given that title. He said it was the "sickest thing he'd ever seen" and that "it gave him nightmares for a long time." He refused to share the content of the episode, but instead offering the VHS he had somewhere in the back of the closet, claiming that I wouldn't believe him unless I saw it myself.

I had heard about other popular cartoons having legendary, unaired episodes that were reportedly uncharacteristically disturbing, such as Suicide Mouse and Dead Bart. However, the only "evidence" of those ever existing were poorly made Youtube videos by fans of the stories. I figured this was simply Pokémon's version of such.

About a month and a half went by before I saw this friend again. True to his word, he delivered the video tape, but promptly left, not wishing to stick around for the viewing.

Looking the tape over, I noticed nothing strange, save for the fact that it was unlabeled. Already, I was getting chills, having learned the potential horrors of an unmarked videocassette from "The Ring". I decided to press on and watch it anyway - after all what was the worst that could happen? Some amateur production of Ash screaming and his face melting?

I inserted the tape into my VCR and it started right up like most store-bought shows and films would. Initially, I thought perhaps this was just a standard Pokémon VHS with the label removed. Immediately, though, I knew it was something different, when a grainy Japanese title appeared on the screen. The quality was terrible, like the millionth-generation fansubs of DragonBall Z I had seen as a youth. There was no opening theme, just this screen with barely legible hiragana. What I believe to be Meowth's voice actor shouted the title - my Japanese is very rusty and the sound quality was lousy, so the only word I caught was, possibly, "Kojiro".

After a few seconds, the title vanished and was replaced by an extreme closeup of Ash's face, sideways. In what I had believed to be a result of the trashy video quality, it looked like Ash's eyes were wide open, yet completely blank. I soon realized that they may have indeed been blank when, as the focus slowly zoomed out from his face, it was clear that there was a trickle of blood emerging from his right temple. I cocked an eyebrow in confusion.

The scene changed to that of James. A sinister grin was on his face - or at least, what I thought could have been, considering the fact that the video quality was so terrible that I couldn't be sure if I was making out all of the details correctly. What was perfectly clear, was that he held a pistol in his hand.

James said something that sounded like he was gloating. Again, because of my poor knowledge of anything outside of basic Japanese, and the abysmal sound quality, I wasn't able to make out anything he said, but the voice actor sounded entirely different - more of a deep voice, uncannily like Yasunori Masutani's fused villain in the DragonBall animated special "Osu! Son Goku and His Friends Return".

There was another shot of Ash's body, and it was definite that he been shot in the head. The blood had stopped actively trickling, but it was apparent that it had pooled underneath him.

Although the video quality made it tough to tell, it appeared as if the animation were on par with the rest of the series during the first season. If this was indeed a fake, it was a darn good one.

The focus switched back to James, who had started some sort of wicked-sounding monologue. Jessie and Meowth emerged from the bushes after about 40 seconds. They took a look at Ash's corpse and started speaking nigh-simultaneously in rapid, panicked voices.

James interrupted them with a laugh. Putting a hand on his hip, he started gloating again, his chest puffed out with pride. Jessie started screaming at him. I caught "Roketto-dan" (Team Rocket) and "ja nai desu" (it is not), but that was all.

The scene then focused on an enraged James' face. The detail was still horrid, but it was clear that James was pissed. The focus zoomed out as he pointed his gun offscreen to the left, shouting "Shi ne! Shi ne! Shi ne! Shi ne!" - in essence, telling them to die.

A clear-as-day gunshot echoed from the speakers, and Jessie took a bullet to the forehead. She stood, looking upward as if trying to see the wound, as a spurt of blood sprayed from the bullethole. She slowly collapsed to her knees, then fell facefirst to the ground.

Meowth yelled something and protracted his claws, leaping through the air with speed lines in the background. He was stopped short by a bullet to the abdomen. Meowth catapulted backwards as bloody leaked from the wound.

James laughed in triumph, and ran off through a clearing in the forest. At this point, I had begun to wonder that if this was indeed a legitimate production from the anime studio, what sort of sick minds would develop such a thing. At the very least, it was apparent that the roles of Jessie and Meowth were voiced by their usual seiyuu, which further complicated the matter - why would they participate in such a production?

The scene shifted to Ash again, and Pikachu approached the body. A happy shout of "Pika Pi!" was soon followed by several confused repeated queries of "Pika Pi?" It cut to a closeup of Pikachu's face as he realized what had happened, tears streaming down its face with a very depressed "Pi...ka...pi..." and then outright crying. I began crying, too, feeling bad for this adorable fellow and a personal favorite character of mine, who had just lost his best friend.

I tried drying my tears as the scene shifted back to James, running through the forest. It appeared as if he had a wicked smirk on his face. I could hear his voice, which had kind of an echo to it, and since his mouth wasn't moving, I deduced that he was thinking something.

A few seconds later, Pikachu's very enraged voice cut through. James looked startled, and slipped behind a tree, his back pressed up against it. He continued thinking, his expression panicked for several seconds before his evil grin returned.

Pikachu approached the tree, shouting angrily. James slipped out from behind the tree, pointing the gun at the mouse.

"NO!" I yelled. "Don't hurt Pikachu!"

I wanted to grab the remote and shut off the tape, or at least the TV. Unfortunately, my hands felt like two cold stones at the end of my arms, and I don't think all of my willpower would have allowed them to move. Likewise, I was unable to look away.

Before James could fire, however, Pikachu attacked with an electric attack, shouting "PI-KAAA-CHUUU!" in the same enraged voice he had been yelling at James with. The attack hit spot-on, and instead of the goofy zapping animation that one had come to expect from Pikachu's attacks, James' hair and clothes began to catch fire and he screamed the most inhuman scream I had ever heard. It didn't sound like any of the show's voice actors, including this new voice of James', but instead some sort of guttural yell of pain, like some sort of animal or demon.

It began to zoom in on James as his hair began to thin from the fire, and his shirt had partially fallen off. His skin was charred and he began to drop to his knees. The fire then ceased, and all that was left of James as he fell to the ground was a bald, cooked corpse with half of a shirt.

Pikachu fired off two more electric attacks, yelling through its tears. This served no effect on James other than causing him to flop a bit upon initial impact.

I was surprised to see Misty run into the patch of forest where Pikachu was standing. She ran up to Pikachu and said something, wrapping her arms around the little yellow mouse. Both of them began sobbing heavily, and the scene ended with Pikachu's tear-streaked face in closeup.

The cut to static startled me, especially since this entire production seemed to last naught but eight minutes total. I fast-forwarded to see if there was anything after the static, but there was nothing.

I shut off the video and rewound it, putting my head in my hands, trying to decompress. I had definitely seen much worse than what had just occurred on my screen, but the fact that it was Pokémon, a more-or-less wholesome show, that made it so disturbing. What really got to me was seeing how sad Pikachu was - that in and of itself was depressing.

About ten minutes had passed before I decided to call the friend that had lent me the tape. He refused to discuss the content, and the only question of mine he would answer was the origin of the tape - apparently, he had found it at random in a drawer of his, and had no idea how it had appeared there.

There was an awkward silence for about a minute after this, before my friend spoke up again.

"You didn't happen to see what was at 02:16, did you?"

I replied in the negative, not recalling timestamps or anything that would have stood out. His response was "Good, you don't want to." He then abruptly hung up. I knew that I should have heeded his warning, but curiosity got the better of me.

I flipped the tape on again and fast-forwarded it to about two minutes in. Watching closely, I could definitely see something flash onto the screen very briefly, that I had missed before. Going back to the 02:10 mark, I advanced frame-by-frame until I came across the screen he had likely been referring to, one that nearly forced me to change pants.

It was some sort of bear-like creature, with spiraling, goat-like horns. It was like no Pokémon I had ever seen, and strangely, this frame was much cleaner than the rest of the video, and the art style was vastly different - much more detailed and realistic, like an Alex Ross painting. The most terrifying part was that Brock was strung up on a tree across from the beast, and it was pulling his intestines from a large gash in his gut.

I knew not what this scene was supposed to represent, or what this monstrosity that had disemboweled Brock was, but I immediately ejected the tape and took a lighter to it, setting it on fire while praying over it. After the tape had melted sufficiently, I doused it with Holy Water to put out the flame. After it had cooled off enough to handle, I had thrown it in an empty box I had lying around and immediately ran outside to heave it in the trash.

^Wow first Pokemon Anime creepypasta I've ever read - But whhhy "The Ring" That gave more effect to me because when I read The Ring it gave me nightmares for ages

Hey, what is you CreepyPasta site? I'm gonna go check it out :D

It's not finished yet

Fyeah updated with more creepypasta!

It had been a while since I played Pokemon Pearl. I decided to boot it up to psych myself up for Black and White. I’d saved in Solaceon town (I considered it my ‘home base’ of sorts) in the Pokemon center, so I walked up to my PC to see how my pokemon were doing.

Everything seemed in order until I got to Box 16. A small group of Unown was sitting inside. Normally, you wouldn’t find this weird, but I’d only ever caught 1 Unown (uncreatively named “F” as that’s what letter it was.)

H O A R D E

R

Haha. Very funny. Maybe my dad or brother had picked up the game and caught some stuff in the Unown ruins that were off to the side of the town. I looked at each one’s stats - all had low health, strangely enough. That and the catch date read as that morning.

… I hadn’t even touched it that morning. I scrolled through my other boxes, checking the pokemon one by one, and again, everything seemed fine. Then I reached Box 5, which I’d nicknamed “Legend2” (this being pokemon I am sure you can guess I kept legendaries in it. The other “Legend” box was Box 4, as I couldn’t fit them all into one box.)

I’d had a Phione, Manaphy, a Movie 10 Darkrai, Shaymin, an event Regigigas, and a Pokemon Ranger Darkrai in the box. Everything but the Darkrai pair had 0 HP.

… what. Did they resent being in the boxes or something? I was suddenly glad that I’d kept the movie Arceus in my party.

I scrolled to Box 4 (“Legend”). Everything in that box was KO’d as well, save for the Mewtwo I had ported from FireRed.

A distorted Darkrai cry suddenly sounded in the speakers. I scrolled back to Legend2 and found that the Pokemon Ranger Darkrai had been KO’d. The Movie 10 Darkrai had also moved from its previous position in the box. And there were now Unown in the empty spaces below the KO’d Pokemon…

S U F F O C

A T E D

This time a distorted Mewtwo cry played. Looking back into Legend, I saw that the Mewtwo had fainted.

A cacophony of Pokemon cries began to play. I scrolled through the boxes and saw everything’s HP at 0.

0.

0.

Box 16’s Unown now spelled

Y O U R

T U R N

I shut off the PC and ran from the Pokemon Center. Unfortunately, the Darkrai was stalking me. One by one my party pokemon were KO’d as I walked, until only the movie Arceus remained. I assumed this was because it was at the back of my party. Eventually, [ARCEUS fainted!] popped up in a text box. My trainer whited out, but I was not taken to a Pokemon Center. The screen instead faded to black.

One by one, Unown appeared on the screen, eventually spelling out:

WHERE IS YOUR GOD NOW?

Hitting buttons did nothing at this point so I reset. It never happened again, but I’ll always regard that Movie Darkrai with suspicion…

Keep Your Precious Metals
My DS Lite is pretty old. There are bits and pieces of it missing. Like some of the touch screen bits are unresponsive or scratched off. So I use for Game Boy games only. Besides the DSi is so much cooler. But that’s not what this is about. This is about my encounter with something I will never forget.

As any normal Saturday morning I woke up late. I mean really late. Like at 2pm. So I made my bed putting all my pokemon dolls back into place. (I should mention Saturday is when we go to yardsales and fleamarkets.)

Instead of just grabbing breakfast, we went to a resturant. Pretty normal right? After we were finished I excused myself to the bathroom. That’s where I saw it. As I finished washing my hands. I look down to see a Pokemon Yellow game. (And you probably thought I’d find it at some weirdo’s yard sale.) I already had one, but hey, it is a classic.

I hold onto it all day and can’t wait to see if it still works. So as soon as I get home I power up my DS lite and stick it in. (I know the game doesn’t fit in the slot.) It’s fits which is strange to me because the yellow I bought is sitting on the other side of the room in my SP. But I think “Whatever”.

Opening screen same as always. There was no previous saved game on it though. Which was really weird, it had some crazy scratch marks on it. I selected new game.

At first nothing happened and I turned the volume up to see if it was frozen. But then some words popped up. “Would You Like To Transfer From Pokemon Dungeon Explorers Of Darkness?”

Which is odd. Because you can’t transfer, there is no other generation in that game. But I chose YES. Only because I remembered I had a Dialga for a team mate. I really love Dialga.

As it transferred the team over from the DS cartridge slot, I didn’t stop to think about what the sprites would look like. As soon as the transfer was complete it faded to a red screen. And I heard Dialga’s cry. But it was distorted. And on the screen Primal Dialga fades in. This sprite looked advanced. Even for the unreleased games Black and White.

I am a huge fan of Primal Dialga. So I didn’t really notice at first. Then Primal Palkia faded in next to Dialga. And I sort of had a really bad feeling. The screen flashes to and overview of Japan with the regions that were used for Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Shinnoh higlighted in yellow.

It was too advanced for Yellow. It was in astonishing color. And just like in the part were you jump into the distortian world in Platinum, Dialga comes at you. The whole I was sitting there thinking this is awesome!

After that it comes to a scene in Shinnoh. On Iron Island. Everything is crushed. Nothing but flat land and rubble. Riley and Byron’s sprite were their but looked as if they were laying on the ground.

Then to the lighthouse in Sunnyshore. Also in crumbles with Volkners sprite looking as if it’s underwater. Then to the Oreburgh mine. In crumbles, Roarks sprite under what looks to be a rock. It showed all these other highlights of Shinnoh in ruins. At that point I was terrified. This was my favorite batch of Gym Leaders and NPCs.

Then the same with Hoenn and Johto. And when it came to Kanto I held my breath. But it was perfect. Nothing wrong with it. And then the sprites of Primal Dialga and Palkia popped up and seemed to engage in battle.

A Mew and Mewtwo sprite showed up and the text box said “Dialga and Palkia DIED” Not normal. So I laughed it off. But there was no reason to laugh. It flashed to Mt. Silver. Red was burried under some rubble. And all his Pokemon seemed to be trying to dig him out.

The screen faded. And then a sprite I had never seen before came up. He looked as if he was a real photograph and he was angry. He said nothing.

A map of New York popped up. Then a very Pokemon styled map covered it marking towns a places. After that sprites of a Black dragon and a White Dragon came into view. They flashed a few times and turned red. The whole screen turned red.

Very realistic photos of places in New York burning, people dying, and rubble from collapsed building popped up. A world map came up and a three spots in Japan were crossed out and so was a spot in New York.

All the sprites of NPCs and a few important pokemon came up. Bloody and angry.

The text read.

…

…

Do you see…

it…?

People get jealous easily.

We are no exception.

I immediately yanked the game card out. And threw it out the window. I have no idea who has it now. But, I never wanted to finish that game. Never.

The previews for Black and White are scaring me and I just wish they’d stop making new generations. I’ve learned my lesson.

But they haven’t.

Silent Protagonist
You notice how Red’s mom isn’t really supportive? And in the beginning of R/B/Y she seems to be like, “Yeah, all boys want to travel yada yada.” Well, she is supportive, but not really…so…what if the R/B/Y mom is NOT really Red’s mom? Like, his stepmom or something?

Anyway, Red’s father was a drunk and abusive. One night it went too far when he came home drunk and demanded to see Red because he was in trouble for “going into Daddy’s liquor cabinet”. He went to Red’s room while he was sleeping and attempted to beat him, but Red’s mom fought him, trying to protect her son. Red got up and hid under his bed and watched his father murder his mother. That frightened him to utter trauma and caused Red to be silent for the rest of his days. His dad gets arrested and gets the death penalty, immediately orphaning Red.

So he got adopted by Green’s aunt, and they live in a small town, so everyone knows Red came from a weird household, and Green teased him because he didn’t know the truth and also felt Red got more attention than he did. Red always kept to himself, and wasn’t really close to his adopted mother. When he became a Trainer, he was obsessive in his training, vowing to be the best. When Green was the Champion, Red battled viciously until he won. While Red enjoyed being the Champion, he feared Green would battle him again and win this time. He also foresaw a Trainer defeating him. So, Red goes to Mount Silver, not telling anyone where he is. He obsessively trains, and you know how the cold, snowy mountaintops get to you after three years of training?

Well, his PTSD catches up to him, driving Red virtually insane. Whenever a Trainer finds him Red mercilessly defeats each and every one of them, saying he “must defeat his father and rescue his mother” or “to annihilate Green”.

Then, Gold/Kris/Kotone finds him, and after he is defeated, he is silent in shock, then he disappears. What we don’t see is him running to the depths of Mount Silver, screaming, and then sitting on the cavern floor, rocking back and forth like a little child, asking about his mother.

Welcome, PoKEMon Z.
I saw a friend I hadn’t seen for a good 7 years the other day. Turns out, we still had a lot in common, and soon it was as if we had never parted ways. I invited him over, and after a while, we started joking about how we would always play Pokemon sitting next to each other. He was older than me, he had introduced me to the games. He was like my Poke-mentor.
Anyway, for the sake of nostalgia, we decided to play beside each other, one last time. I handed him my Triforce SP and Pokemon Blue, while I played Pokemon Yellow on my old, yellow Gameboy Colour.
I loaded the game, all was well. No scary loading screen or music, and I was inside Fuchsia City’s PokeCentre. I must have left my Pikachu in my storage all those years ago, since it wasn’t following me. I looked at my party before I left, giggled with my friend about the silly nicknames I had given my Pokemon (A Kangeskhan named after my mother, cute), then left the Pokecenter.
This is when things got…odd.
On the house beside the Pokecentre, there was my rival, on the roof…
Obviously my first reaction was to go and try to talk to him. He took a step to the left and ‘jumped’ off the roof. Yellow turned to him as my rival faced me, and a battle initiated.
Except there was none of that battle initiated music. Just silence as my screen blinked the hell out at me. There was the usual pause before the sprites slid onto screen. Except I didn’t see my rival. I didn’t see Yellow either. There still wasn’t any music.
What did slide onto the screen was…this mess of pixels. It looked like MISSINGNO. But…broken, even for MISSINGNO. This is the only way I can describe what I saw. I waited for the game to right itself, or just crash. After all, it’s not like I’ve never encountered a Pokemon glitch before (Big fan of cloning rare candies).
I waited, and eventually, text came up.
“Welcome, PoKEMon Z.”
Now I’m getting worried.
Not before my Gameboy has a chance to scream at me in a headache inducing high pitch. Not liking what the hell was going on, I flicked the power on and back on, praying that of all things that my save file wasn’t damaged.
Luckily, it seemed the save was okay.
Because the game didn’t even go through with the usual load up.
No GAMEBOY Colour display. No intro sequence. No Continue, New Game.
It just loaded the game where I left Yellow, as if the battle never happened. My rival was gone and no music was playing either.
I did my best to ignore what just happened and what was clearly wrong with my beloved game, and attempted to talk to a random NPC.
When I did, the screaming returned.
I didn’t look at what the NPC was saying, I was mashing A as fast as I could to shut the NPC up. Still trying to ignore these glitches, I turned my volume all the way down and continued playing.
As I walked around, the game started….breaking. Yellow wasn’t walking right. 2 steps forward, 1 step back. Houses and bushes were shaking as I walked past them. Colours started ****ing up. Being in Fuchsia City, it was meant to be red, but I was seeing blocks of green and blue and purple etc.
Still trying to ignore all of this, against my better judgement.
I’d already completed Pokemon Yellow before I abandoned it for 7 years. No more trainers to fight, so I thought I’d head over to the cycle track to the east and run in the grass. But that short little path before you get to the gateway building just kept…going, and Yellow is still going 2-steps-forward-1-step-back and the colours are still getting worse. I keep trying to reach the gateway, but then, the fence that is meant to be there starts to be replaced with random NPC models, facing inwards at me. They’re all white and black against the mess of red and blue. At this point I’m accepting that my save file is clearly broken, but still playable. I press on.
But then I get tired of this never-ending path, and turn back, trying my best to just get back to the city, but I realise this path is clearly a one way trip, and I’m getting annoyed at this walk pattern.
I cave, and talk to an NPC, a little girl.
My volume is still off, so I can read what she says;
‘Welcome.’
I press A.
‘Welcome.’
I press A.
‘Welcome.’
I start pressing A a little faster now.
‘Welcome.’
‘Welcome.’
‘Welcome.’
‘Welcome.’
Now the panic is actually setting in. I’m mashing A but the girl won’t stop saying welcome, so I’m now looking all over the screen only to see the NPC sprites themselves are ****ing up, their pixels sliding away from each other slightly like they’ve been cut up. The only one that isn’t doing this is the girl I’m talking to.
‘Welcome.’
‘Welcome.’
The background around the NPCs was shaking now, like the houses had been when I was walking.
I finally snapped out of my A mash trance and just shut the game off. I don’t care if the save file was lost anymore.

I realise my old friend hasn’t said a word. Did he notice what was going on too? He must have at least heard that high pitched noise. I turn to him and he’s making the most horrified face, staring at my blank Gameboy Colour screen.
Finally he says to me, in a hushed tone.
“You’ve turned your game into a corpse.”
I didn’t know what to say. Yes, I was freaked out too but what he had just said made no sense. I watched as he took himself to a corner of the room and huddled himself up. Worried, I went over to him.
He wouldn’t looked me in the eye at all.
None of his words were sitting right for me.
Why did he call my game a corpse?
Soon, I saw he was getting tired, and he asked if it was okay if he went home because it was getting dark.
He still wasn’t looking at me as he left the front door.
The last thing I heard him say was that I ‘summoned’ PoKEMon Z because I had been abusing our rare candy cheat.
The same cheat he had shown me in the first place.
That’s the last I ever heard of him, no matter how many times I tried his phone number, or knocking on his door.
Last I ever played Pokemon Yellow.

I don’t know what scared me more;
My friends reaction.
Or how PoKEMon Z knew I had been using a cheat that doesn’t even exist on Pokemon Yellow

Lavender Lake
Does anyone out there know how to get to “lavender lake” on FRLG? I was only there once, and now I can’t get back. It’s really important to me to find it again, at least, it feels important.
This is what happened, I was playing my old Fire Red game on my gameboy advance SP, just to see if there were any good pokemon I wanted to pal-park across to the new generation when I noticed I had an unhatched egg, so I was running around Lavender Town, where I had saved, trying to hatch the egg. Just incase it was something I wanted to transferr. Now, my old gameboy SP is well used, after all, I used to take it and Fire red with me wherever I went. The internal battery doesn’t work anymore, so it has to be plugged in to the main power all the time to be playable anymore. Seemingly out of nowhere, the door sound played and the screen flickered black a few times then came back. When it came back into focus, I was standing on the edge of some water and it said in the top corner “Lavender Lake”.
There was nowhere to go but to surf, the entire screen infront of me was water, and there was no way back out behind me. I walked to the right and left, but the one-square long edge just seemed to go on forever.
The water wasn’t the normal colour either, it was deffinately darker.. more purple than blue. The ground had a slight tinge of violet to it too. The music was the same as Lavender Town’s, only it sounded filtered, like it was supposed to be coming from underwater.
I surfed forward, and to my surprise the lake was much shorter than it was wide. There was a visible edge on the other side, as soon as I got in the water. My sprite seemed to move terribly slowly, and before I reached the other side a random battle started. Magikarp, always Magikarp. Or at least, the name SAID Magikarp, but the sprite was.. well.. skeletal. It was clearly a fish skeleton, and the cry, the cry sounded like it was trying to say my name. The thing was just as easy to defeat as a magikarp luckily and I got off the lake on the opposite bank.
A text box popped up [GHOST:You Should Not Be Here…. Yet]
The music began to bubble and glitch more, as if it was sinking further away, and in some small way, sounded like it was gurgling my name.
There was a row of 13 graves on that bank, all side by side. In turn, they read “Brock”, “Misty”, “Surge”, “Erika”, “Sabrina”, “Koga”, “Blaine”, “Giovanni”, “Lorelei”, “Bruno”, “Agatha”, “Lance” and the last one, I couldn’t get to, because there was an open hole in the ground infront of it. I heard my name being spoken again.
Another text box popped up as I approached the open grave;
[GHOST: Here lies the champion….]
And my name was called, out loud, the screen started to flicker again, as if a pokemon was poisoned.
I heard my name called again… and regained a small level of sanity back when I realsied it was my Mother calling me. Heart pounding, I went to speak to her and told her I was sorry I didn’t respond, I was wrapped up in a game.
She rolled her eyes at me and said something that made my blood run cold…
“Well while you were playing your game, the power went out. The whole street has been down for the last hour! Didn’t you even notice?”
I said no, and apologized again.
When I went back to the gameboy it was off. No battery, no power.
But I wasn’t finished with Lavender Lake….

I can kinda believe Lavender Lake and Silent Protagonist.

Said It With A Bullet

About six months ago, I was discussing how amazing it was that the Pokémon anime was still running after all of these years, with a friend of mine. Although I still try to catch it every weekend, this friend had ceased watching back in one of the Johto seasons, due to finding the series repetitive.

"The final straw, though," he said, elaborating on why he no longer watched the series. "was that episode that was basically a snuff film."

Understandably, I scoffed at this premise. "You can't seriously tell me they released a Pokémon snuff cartoon."

He went on to explain that it was a "lost episode" - not too far of a stretch of imagination, seeing as how there were already several episodes that had been given that title. He said it was the "sickest thing he'd ever seen" and that "it gave him nightmares for a long time." He refused to share the content of the episode, but instead offering the VHS he had somewhere in the back of the closet, claiming that I wouldn't believe him unless I saw it myself.

I had heard about other popular cartoons having legendary, unaired episodes that were reportedly uncharacteristically disturbing, such as Suicide Mouse and Dead Bart. However, the only "evidence" of those ever existing were poorly made Youtube videos by fans of the stories. I figured this was simply Pokémon's version of such.

About a month and a half went by before I saw this friend again. True to his word, he delivered the video tape, but promptly left, not wishing to stick around for the viewing.

Looking the tape over, I noticed nothing strange, save for the fact that it was unlabeled. Already, I was getting chills, having learned the potential horrors of an unmarked videocassette from "The Ring". I decided to press on and watch it anyway - after all what was the worst that could happen? Some amateur production of Ash screaming and his face melting?

I inserted the tape into my VCR and it started right up like most store-bought shows and films would. Initially, I thought perhaps this was just a standard Pokémon VHS with the label removed. Immediately, though, I knew it was something different, when a grainy Japanese title appeared on the screen. The quality was terrible, like the millionth-generation fansubs of DragonBall Z I had seen as a youth. There was no opening theme, just this screen with barely legible hiragana. What I believe to be Meowth's voice actor shouted the title - my Japanese is very rusty and the sound quality was lousy, so the only word I caught was, possibly, "Kojiro".

After a few seconds, the title vanished and was replaced by an extreme closeup of Ash's face, sideways. In what I had believed to be a result of the trashy video quality, it looked like Ash's eyes were wide open, yet completely blank. I soon realized that they may have indeed been blank when, as the focus slowly zoomed out from his face, it was clear that there was a trickle of blood emerging from his right temple. I cocked an eyebrow in confusion.

The scene changed to that of James. A sinister grin was on his face - or at least, what I thought could have been, considering the fact that the video quality was so terrible that I couldn't be sure if I was making out all of the details correctly. What was perfectly clear, was that he held a pistol in his hand.

James said something that sounded like he was gloating. Again, because of my poor knowledge of anything outside of basic Japanese, and the abysmal sound quality, I wasn't able to make out anything he said, but the voice actor sounded entirely different - more of a deep voice, uncannily like Yasunori Masutani's fused villain in the DragonBall animated special "Osu! Son Goku and His Friends Return".

There was another shot of Ash's body, and it was definite that he been shot in the head. The blood had stopped actively trickling, but it was apparent that it had pooled underneath him.

Although the video quality made it tough to tell, it appeared as if the animation were on par with the rest of the series during the first season. If this was indeed a fake, it was a darn good one.

The focus switched back to James, who had started some sort of wicked-sounding monologue. Jessie and Meowth emerged from the bushes after about 40 seconds. They took a look at Ash's corpse and started speaking nigh-simultaneously in rapid, panicked voices.

James interrupted them with a laugh. Putting a hand on his hip, he started gloating again, his chest puffed out with pride. Jessie started screaming at him. I caught "Roketto-dan" (Team Rocket) and "ja nai desu" (it is not), but that was all.

The scene then focused on an enraged James' face. The detail was still horrid, but it was clear that James was pissed. The focus zoomed out as he pointed his gun offscreen to the left, shouting "Shi ne! Shi ne! Shi ne! Shi ne!" - in essence, telling them to die.

A clear-as-day gunshot echoed from the speakers, and Jessie took a bullet to the forehead. She stood, looking upward as if trying to see the wound, as a spurt of blood sprayed from the bullethole. She slowly collapsed to her knees, then fell facefirst to the ground.

Meowth yelled something and protracted his claws, leaping through the air with speed lines in the background. He was stopped short by a bullet to the abdomen. Meowth catapulted backwards as bloody leaked from the wound.

James laughed in triumph, and ran off through a clearing in the forest. At this point, I had begun to wonder that if this was indeed a legitimate production from the anime studio, what sort of sick minds would develop such a thing. At the very least, it was apparent that the roles of Jessie and Meowth were voiced by their usual seiyuu, which further complicated the matter - why would they participate in such a production?

The scene shifted to Ash again, and Pikachu approached the body. A happy shout of "Pika Pi!" was soon followed by several confused repeated queries of "Pika Pi?" It cut to a closeup of Pikachu's face as he realized what had happened, tears streaming down its face with a very depressed "Pi...ka...pi..." and then outright crying. I began crying, too, feeling bad for this adorable fellow and a personal favorite character of mine, who had just lost his best friend.

I tried drying my tears as the scene shifted back to James, running through the forest. It appeared as if he had a wicked smirk on his face. I could hear his voice, which had kind of an echo to it, and since his mouth wasn't moving, I deduced that he was thinking something.

A few seconds later, Pikachu's very enraged voice cut through. James looked startled, and slipped behind a tree, his back pressed up against it. He continued thinking, his expression panicked for several seconds before his evil grin returned.

Pikachu approached the tree, shouting angrily. James slipped out from behind the tree, pointing the gun at the mouse.

"NO!" I yelled. "Don't hurt Pikachu!"

I wanted to grab the remote and shut off the tape, or at least the TV. Unfortunately, my hands felt like two cold stones at the end of my arms, and I don't think all of my willpower would have allowed them to move. Likewise, I was unable to look away.

Before James could fire, however, Pikachu attacked with an electric attack, shouting "PI-KAAA-CHUUU!" in the same enraged voice he had been yelling at James with. The attack hit spot-on, and instead of the goofy zapping animation that one had come to expect from Pikachu's attacks, James' hair and clothes began to catch fire and he screamed the most inhuman scream I had ever heard. It didn't sound like any of the show's voice actors, including this new voice of James', but instead some sort of guttural yell of pain, like some sort of animal or demon.

It began to zoom in on James as his hair began to thin from the fire, and his shirt had partially fallen off. His skin was charred and he began to drop to his knees. The fire then ceased, and all that was left of James as he fell to the ground was a bald, cooked corpse with half of a shirt.

Pikachu fired off two more electric attacks, yelling through its tears. This served no effect on James other than causing him to flop a bit upon initial impact.

I was surprised to see Misty run into the patch of forest where Pikachu was standing. She ran up to Pikachu and said something, wrapping her arms around the little yellow mouse. Both of them began sobbing heavily, and the scene ended with Pikachu's tear-streaked face in closeup.

The cut to static startled me, especially since this entire production seemed to last naught but eight minutes total. I fast-forwarded to see if there was anything after the static, but there was nothing.

I shut off the video and rewound it, putting my head in my hands, trying to decompress. I had definitely seen much worse than what had just occurred on my screen, but the fact that it was Pokémon, a more-or-less wholesome show, that made it so disturbing. What really got to me was seeing how sad Pikachu was - that in and of itself was depressing.

About ten minutes had passed before I decided to call the friend that had lent me the tape. He refused to discuss the content, and the only question of mine he would answer was the origin of the tape - apparently, he had found it at random in a drawer of his, and had no idea how it had appeared there.

There was an awkward silence for about a minute after this, before my friend spoke up again.

"You didn't happen to see what was at 02:16, did you?"

I replied in the negative, not recalling timestamps or anything that would have stood out. His response was "Good, you don't want to." He then abruptly hung up. I knew that I should have heeded his warning, but curiosity got the better of me.

I flipped the tape on again and fast-forwarded it to about two minutes in. Watching closely, I could definitely see something flash onto the screen very briefly, that I had missed before. Going back to the 02:10 mark, I advanced frame-by-frame until I came across the screen he had likely been referring to, one that nearly forced me to change pants.

It was some sort of bear-like creature, with spiraling, goat-like horns. It was like no Pokémon I had ever seen, and strangely, this frame was much cleaner than the rest of the video, and the art style was vastly different - much more detailed and realistic, like an Alex Ross painting. The most terrifying part was that Brock was strung up on a tree across from the beast, and it was pulling his intestines from a large gash in his gut.

I knew not what this scene was supposed to represent, or what this monstrosity that had disemboweled Brock was, but I immediately ejected the tape and took a lighter to it, setting it on fire while praying over it. After the tape had melted sufficiently, I doused it with Holy Water to put out the flame. After it had cooled off enough to handle, I had thrown it in an empty box I had lying around and immediately ran outside to heave it in the trash.

Erm. i don't know what to say about this. i don't know if its just my weird mood swings (ano, i need to see a doctor about it. it's really bad) but i actually had tears running down my cheeks while i was reading this.
This, is probably one of the best written creepypasta out. Where did you find it?

Hey, what is you CreepyPasta site? I'm gonna go check it out :D
Like Zappy said its not finished yet but i will post a link in the first post when its up and running propperly.
And i'm thinking of maybe doing a mass PM to some of you followers with a link when its finished. But of course you would have to request it to have it sent to you.

^Wow first Pokemon Anime creepypasta I've ever read - But whhhy "The Ring" That gave more effect to me because when I read The Ring it gave me nightmares for ages



It's not finished yet

Fyeah updated with more creepypasta!

It had been a while since I played Pokemon Pearl. I decided to boot it up to psych myself up for Black and White. I’d saved in Solaceon town (I considered it my ‘home base’ of sorts) in the Pokemon center, so I walked up to my PC to see how my pokemon were doing.

Everything seemed in order until I got to Box 16. A small group of Unown was sitting inside. Normally, you wouldn’t find this weird, but I’d only ever caught 1 Unown (uncreatively named “F” as that’s what letter it was.)

H O A R D E

R

Haha. Very funny. Maybe my dad or brother had picked up the game and caught some stuff in the Unown ruins that were off to the side of the town. I looked at each one’s stats - all had low health, strangely enough. That and the catch date read as that morning.

… I hadn’t even touched it that morning. I scrolled through my other boxes, checking the pokemon one by one, and again, everything seemed fine. Then I reached Box 5, which I’d nicknamed “Legend2” (this being pokemon I am sure you can guess I kept legendaries in it. The other “Legend” box was Box 4, as I couldn’t fit them all into one box.)

I’d had a Phione, Manaphy, a Movie 10 Darkrai, Shaymin, an event Regigigas, and a Pokemon Ranger Darkrai in the box. Everything but the Darkrai pair had 0 HP.

… what. Did they resent being in the boxes or something? I was suddenly glad that I’d kept the movie Arceus in my party.

I scrolled to Box 4 (“Legend”). Everything in that box was KO’d as well, save for the Mewtwo I had ported from FireRed.

A distorted Darkrai cry suddenly sounded in the speakers. I scrolled back to Legend2 and found that the Pokemon Ranger Darkrai had been KO’d. The Movie 10 Darkrai had also moved from its previous position in the box. And there were now Unown in the empty spaces below the KO’d Pokemon…

S U F F O C

A T E D

This time a distorted Mewtwo cry played. Looking back into Legend, I saw that the Mewtwo had fainted.

A cacophony of Pokemon cries began to play. I scrolled through the boxes and saw everything’s HP at 0.

0.

0.

Box 16’s Unown now spelled

Y O U R

T U R N

I shut off the PC and ran from the Pokemon Center. Unfortunately, the Darkrai was stalking me. One by one my party pokemon were KO’d as I walked, until only the movie Arceus remained. I assumed this was because it was at the back of my party. Eventually, [ARCEUS fainted!] popped up in a text box. My trainer whited out, but I was not taken to a Pokemon Center. The screen instead faded to black.

One by one, Unown appeared on the screen, eventually spelling out:

WHERE IS YOUR GOD NOW?

Hitting buttons did nothing at this point so I reset. It never happened again, but I’ll always regard that Movie Darkrai with suspicion…

Keep Your Precious Metals
My DS Lite is pretty old. There are bits and pieces of it missing. Like some of the touch screen bits are unresponsive or scratched off. So I use for Game Boy games only. Besides the DSi is so much cooler. But that’s not what this is about. This is about my encounter with something I will never forget.

As any normal Saturday morning I woke up late. I mean really late. Like at 2pm. So I made my bed putting all my pokemon dolls back into place. (I should mention Saturday is when we go to yardsales and fleamarkets.)

Instead of just grabbing breakfast, we went to a resturant. Pretty normal right? After we were finished I excused myself to the bathroom. That’s where I saw it. As I finished washing my hands. I look down to see a Pokemon Yellow game. (And you probably thought I’d find it at some weirdo’s yard sale.) I already had one, but hey, it is a classic.

I hold onto it all day and can’t wait to see if it still works. So as soon as I get home I power up my DS lite and stick it in. (I know the game doesn’t fit in the slot.) It’s fits which is strange to me because the yellow I bought is sitting on the other side of the room in my SP. But I think “Whatever”.

Opening screen same as always. There was no previous saved game on it though. Which was really weird, it had some crazy scratch marks on it. I selected new game.

At first nothing happened and I turned the volume up to see if it was frozen. But then some words popped up. “Would You Like To Transfer From Pokemon Dungeon Explorers Of Darkness?”

Which is odd. Because you can’t transfer, there is no other generation in that game. But I chose YES. Only because I remembered I had a Dialga for a team mate. I really love Dialga.

As it transferred the team over from the DS cartridge slot, I didn’t stop to think about what the sprites would look like. As soon as the transfer was complete it faded to a red screen. And I heard Dialga’s cry. But it was distorted. And on the screen Primal Dialga fades in. This sprite looked advanced. Even for the unreleased games Black and White.

I am a huge fan of Primal Dialga. So I didn’t really notice at first. Then Primal Palkia faded in next to Dialga. And I sort of had a really bad feeling. The screen flashes to and overview of Japan with the regions that were used for Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Shinnoh higlighted in yellow.

It was too advanced for Yellow. It was in astonishing color. And just like in the part were you jump into the distortian world in Platinum, Dialga comes at you. The whole I was sitting there thinking this is awesome!

After that it comes to a scene in Shinnoh. On Iron Island. Everything is crushed. Nothing but flat land and rubble. Riley and Byron’s sprite were their but looked as if they were laying on the ground.

Then to the lighthouse in Sunnyshore. Also in crumbles with Volkners sprite looking as if it’s underwater. Then to the Oreburgh mine. In crumbles, Roarks sprite under what looks to be a rock. It showed all these other highlights of Shinnoh in ruins. At that point I was terrified. This was my favorite batch of Gym Leaders and NPCs.

Then the same with Hoenn and Johto. And when it came to Kanto I held my breath. But it was perfect. Nothing wrong with it. And then the sprites of Primal Dialga and Palkia popped up and seemed to engage in battle.

A Mew and Mewtwo sprite showed up and the text box said “Dialga and Palkia DIED” Not normal. So I laughed it off. But there was no reason to laugh. It flashed to Mt. Silver. Red was burried under some rubble. And all his Pokemon seemed to be trying to dig him out.

The screen faded. And then a sprite I had never seen before came up. He looked as if he was a real photograph and he was angry. He said nothing.

A map of New York popped up. Then a very Pokemon styled map covered it marking towns a places. After that sprites of a Black dragon and a White Dragon came into view. They flashed a few times and turned red. The whole screen turned red.

Very realistic photos of places in New York burning, people dying, and rubble from collapsed building popped up. A world map came up and a three spots in Japan were crossed out and so was a spot in New York.

All the sprites of NPCs and a few important pokemon came up. Bloody and angry.

The text read.

…

…

Do you see…

it…?

People get jealous easily.

We are no exception.

I immediately yanked the game card out. And threw it out the window. I have no idea who has it now. But, I never wanted to finish that game. Never.

The previews for Black and White are scaring me and I just wish they’d stop making new generations. I’ve learned my lesson.

But they haven’t.

Silent Protagonist
You notice how Red’s mom isn’t really supportive? And in the beginning of R/B/Y she seems to be like, “Yeah, all boys want to travel yada yada.” Well, she is supportive, but not really…so…what if the R/B/Y mom is NOT really Red’s mom? Like, his stepmom or something?

Anyway, Red’s father was a drunk and abusive. One night it went too far when he came home drunk and demanded to see Red because he was in trouble for “going into Daddy’s liquor cabinet”. He went to Red’s room while he was sleeping and attempted to beat him, but Red’s mom fought him, trying to protect her son. Red got up and hid under his bed and watched his father murder his mother. That frightened him to utter trauma and caused Red to be silent for the rest of his days. His dad gets arrested and gets the death penalty, immediately orphaning Red.

So he got adopted by Green’s aunt, and they live in a small town, so everyone knows Red came from a weird household, and Green teased him because he didn’t know the truth and also felt Red got more attention than he did. Red always kept to himself, and wasn’t really close to his adopted mother. When he became a Trainer, he was obsessive in his training, vowing to be the best. When Green was the Champion, Red battled viciously until he won. While Red enjoyed being the Champion, he feared Green would battle him again and win this time. He also foresaw a Trainer defeating him. So, Red goes to Mount Silver, not telling anyone where he is. He obsessively trains, and you know how the cold, snowy mountaintops get to you after three years of training?

Well, his PTSD catches up to him, driving Red virtually insane. Whenever a Trainer finds him Red mercilessly defeats each and every one of them, saying he “must defeat his father and rescue his mother” or “to annihilate Green”.

Then, Gold/Kris/Kotone finds him, and after he is defeated, he is silent in shock, then he disappears. What we don’t see is him running to the depths of Mount Silver, screaming, and then sitting on the cavern floor, rocking back and forth like a little child, asking about his mother.

Welcome, PoKEMon Z.
I saw a friend I hadn’t seen for a good 7 years the other day. Turns out, we still had a lot in common, and soon it was as if we had never parted ways. I invited him over, and after a while, we started joking about how we would always play Pokemon sitting next to each other. He was older than me, he had introduced me to the games. He was like my Poke-mentor.
Anyway, for the sake of nostalgia, we decided to play beside each other, one last time. I handed him my Triforce SP and Pokemon Blue, while I played Pokemon Yellow on my old, yellow Gameboy Colour.
I loaded the game, all was well. No scary loading screen or music, and I was inside Fuchsia City’s PokeCentre. I must have left my Pikachu in my storage all those years ago, since it wasn’t following me. I looked at my party before I left, giggled with my friend about the silly nicknames I had given my Pokemon (A Kangeskhan named after my mother, cute), then left the Pokecenter.
This is when things got…odd.
On the house beside the Pokecentre, there was my rival, on the roof…
Obviously my first reaction was to go and try to talk to him. He took a step to the left and ‘jumped’ off the roof. Yellow turned to him as my rival faced me, and a battle initiated.
Except there was none of that battle initiated music. Just silence as my screen blinked the hell out at me. There was the usual pause before the sprites slid onto screen. Except I didn’t see my rival. I didn’t see Yellow either. There still wasn’t any music.
What did slide onto the screen was…this mess of pixels. It looked like MISSINGNO. But…broken, even for MISSINGNO. This is the only way I can describe what I saw. I waited for the game to right itself, or just crash. After all, it’s not like I’ve never encountered a Pokemon glitch before (Big fan of cloning rare candies).
I waited, and eventually, text came up.
“Welcome, PoKEMon Z.”
Now I’m getting worried.
Not before my Gameboy has a chance to scream at me in a headache inducing high pitch. Not liking what the hell was going on, I flicked the power on and back on, praying that of all things that my save file wasn’t damaged.
Luckily, it seemed the save was okay.
Because the game didn’t even go through with the usual load up.
No GAMEBOY Colour display. No intro sequence. No Continue, New Game.
It just loaded the game where I left Yellow, as if the battle never happened. My rival was gone and no music was playing either.
I did my best to ignore what just happened and what was clearly wrong with my beloved game, and attempted to talk to a random NPC.
When I did, the screaming returned.
I didn’t look at what the NPC was saying, I was mashing A as fast as I could to shut the NPC up. Still trying to ignore these glitches, I turned my volume all the way down and continued playing.
As I walked around, the game started….breaking. Yellow wasn’t walking right. 2 steps forward, 1 step back. Houses and bushes were shaking as I walked past them. Colours started ****ing up. Being in Fuchsia City, it was meant to be red, but I was seeing blocks of green and blue and purple etc.
Still trying to ignore all of this, against my better judgement.
I’d already completed Pokemon Yellow before I abandoned it for 7 years. No more trainers to fight, so I thought I’d head over to the cycle track to the east and run in the grass. But that short little path before you get to the gateway building just kept…going, and Yellow is still going 2-steps-forward-1-step-back and the colours are still getting worse. I keep trying to reach the gateway, but then, the fence that is meant to be there starts to be replaced with random NPC models, facing inwards at me. They’re all white and black against the mess of red and blue. At this point I’m accepting that my save file is clearly broken, but still playable. I press on.
But then I get tired of this never-ending path, and turn back, trying my best to just get back to the city, but I realise this path is clearly a one way trip, and I’m getting annoyed at this walk pattern.
I cave, and talk to an NPC, a little girl.
My volume is still off, so I can read what she says;
‘Welcome.’
I press A.
‘Welcome.’
I press A.
‘Welcome.’
I start pressing A a little faster now.
‘Welcome.’
‘Welcome.’
‘Welcome.’
‘Welcome.’
Now the panic is actually setting in. I’m mashing A but the girl won’t stop saying welcome, so I’m now looking all over the screen only to see the NPC sprites themselves are ****ing up, their pixels sliding away from each other slightly like they’ve been cut up. The only one that isn’t doing this is the girl I’m talking to.
‘Welcome.’
‘Welcome.’
The background around the NPCs was shaking now, like the houses had been when I was walking.
I finally snapped out of my A mash trance and just shut the game off. I don’t care if the save file was lost anymore.

I realise my old friend hasn’t said a word. Did he notice what was going on too? He must have at least heard that high pitched noise. I turn to him and he’s making the most horrified face, staring at my blank Gameboy Colour screen.
Finally he says to me, in a hushed tone.
“You’ve turned your game into a corpse.”
I didn’t know what to say. Yes, I was freaked out too but what he had just said made no sense. I watched as he took himself to a corner of the room and huddled himself up. Worried, I went over to him.
He wouldn’t looked me in the eye at all.
None of his words were sitting right for me.
Why did he call my game a corpse?
Soon, I saw he was getting tired, and he asked if it was okay if he went home because it was getting dark.
He still wasn’t looking at me as he left the front door.
The last thing I heard him say was that I ‘summoned’ PoKEMon Z because I had been abusing our rare candy cheat.
The same cheat he had shown me in the first place.
That’s the last I ever heard of him, no matter how many times I tried his phone number, or knocking on his door.
Last I ever played Pokemon Yellow.

I don’t know what scared me more;
My friends reaction.
Or how PoKEMon Z knew I had been using a cheat that doesn’t even exist on Pokemon Yellow

Lavender Lake
Does anyone out there know how to get to “lavender lake” on FRLG? I was only there once, and now I can’t get back. It’s really important to me to find it again, at least, it feels important.
This is what happened, I was playing my old Fire Red game on my gameboy advance SP, just to see if there were any good pokemon I wanted to pal-park across to the new generation when I noticed I had an unhatched egg, so I was running around Lavender Town, where I had saved, trying to hatch the egg. Just incase it was something I wanted to transferr. Now, my old gameboy SP is well used, after all, I used to take it and Fire red with me wherever I went. The internal battery doesn’t work anymore, so it has to be plugged in to the main power all the time to be playable anymore. Seemingly out of nowhere, the door sound played and the screen flickered black a few times then came back. When it came back into focus, I was standing on the edge of some water and it said in the top corner “Lavender Lake”.
There was nowhere to go but to surf, the entire screen infront of me was water, and there was no way back out behind me. I walked to the right and left, but the one-square long edge just seemed to go on forever.
The water wasn’t the normal colour either, it was deffinately darker.. more purple than blue. The ground had a slight tinge of violet to it too. The music was the same as Lavender Town’s, only it sounded filtered, like it was supposed to be coming from underwater.
I surfed forward, and to my surprise the lake was much shorter than it was wide. There was a visible edge on the other side, as soon as I got in the water. My sprite seemed to move terribly slowly, and before I reached the other side a random battle started. Magikarp, always Magikarp. Or at least, the name SAID Magikarp, but the sprite was.. well.. skeletal. It was clearly a fish skeleton, and the cry, the cry sounded like it was trying to say my name. The thing was just as easy to defeat as a magikarp luckily and I got off the lake on the opposite bank.
A text box popped up [GHOST:You Should Not Be Here…. Yet]
The music began to bubble and glitch more, as if it was sinking further away, and in some small way, sounded like it was gurgling my name.
There was a row of 13 graves on that bank, all side by side. In turn, they read “Brock”, “Misty”, “Surge”, “Erika”, “Sabrina”, “Koga”, “Blaine”, “Giovanni”, “Lorelei”, “Bruno”, “Agatha”, “Lance” and the last one, I couldn’t get to, because there was an open hole in the ground infront of it. I heard my name being spoken again.
Another text box popped up as I approached the open grave;
[GHOST: Here lies the champion….]
And my name was called, out loud, the screen started to flicker again, as if a pokemon was poisoned.
I heard my name called again… and regained a small level of sanity back when I realsied it was my Mother calling me. Heart pounding, I went to speak to her and told her I was sorry I didn’t respond, I was wrapped up in a game.
She rolled her eyes at me and said something that made my blood run cold…
“Well while you were playing your game, the power went out. The whole street has been down for the last hour! Didn’t you even notice?”
I said no, and apologized again.
When I went back to the gameboy it was off. No battery, no power.
But I wasn’t finished with Lavender Lake….
The first and third, absolutely the worst ones i've read. end of.
The second one, Silent Protagonist, was pretty good and kinda believable. It explains why everyone is so nice to RED, because they all feel sorry for him.
Now Pokemon Lake, was pretty good. It wasn't to scary or creepy but it was pretty interesting.

Erm. i don't know what to say about this. i don't know if its just my weird mood swings (ano, i need to see a doctor about it. it's really bad) but i actually had tears running down my cheeks while i was reading this.

The S, Tarnished Silver pulled off the WTF factor very well. I loved it.

But... It lacked the Nightmare Fuel qualities of some of the others...

Which is probably good.

"Here lies TOMB still creeps me out, 27 hours later.


Also, after this thread, I'm once again afraid of the dark. And I woke up at 3a.m. for no apparent reason.

[The S]

But whhhy "The Ring" That gave more effect to me because when I read The Ring it gave me nightmares for ages

Because The Ring is the only movie I have ever seen to scare me.

I didn't even get to finish the reading the Ring and I was scared

The S, don't be too proud. A lot of things creep me out.

Mysterious things in particular...

And a toast, to all the "When we feel like it and not before!" authors out there.

Update on the Lavender Town thing:

No, it's not a placebo effect. Listening to this song actually does give me a minor headache.

However, after booting up my GBA for a little nostalgia, I discovered something:

The "new" version gives me a headache too.


...I think I'm just really sensitive to high-pitched noises, in the same way that I feel like I'm about to go nuts when I'm in a crowded, noisy room. Which is also why I intensely dislike my sister's screeching.

Lolz I found a version of Lost Sliver from Gold's POV


Dying…

I am dying…

Please don’t leave me alone…

I want…one more chance with life…

Don’t worry…

I’LL TAKE CARE OF YOU.

“Where am I…” Gold mumbled as he opened his eyes. There were five Unown dancing around him and laughing gleefully. The trainer bolted to his feet and stared at the five alphabet pokemon, wondering what they were so gleeful about.

“Leave?” Gold mumbled. He looked around, searching for an exit, but there didn’t seem to be any. With a shock, he realized he was not at home. This place was unlike any area he had ever seen before. He was fenced inside a large square with a tall pillar in the center. The Unown began to circle him, taunting him. Gold tried to recall how he got in this creepy place but his mind was blank.

Worried for his life, Gold checked his pokeballs. To his shock there was only one pokeball in his possession: his Cyndaquil. Normally he kept a whole team with him and his starter Cyndaquil had long evolved after he fought gym leaders. By the time he was a champion, it had become a Typhlosion. Pokemon don’t unevolve…so where did this Cyndaquil come from?

Maybe it was a baby of his Typhlosion. That had to be it.

Upon further investigation, Cyndaquil seemed to be on his last breath of life. Gold searched his pockets for any stamina medicine, but his bag was empty. This was odd…he always had at least twenty different potions and healing items in case of an emergency. Was this some kind of joke? Or was he robbed?

“I’ve got to get out of here…”

The Unown began to laugh again. Gold pressed Cyndaquil to his chest and looked around the room. The fence was entirely closed. There was no way in or out of it. Gold studied the pillar in the center and, to his biggest surprise, found a set of stairs behind it.

“Maybe I’ll find another way down…” Gold mused as he walked up them.

The Unown followed him, annoying him with their calls and their continuous lining up to spell out LEAVE. But what else was he suppose to do?

The room he entered was utterly dark. Thankfully he had a fire pokemon in his arms. He ordered Cyndaquil to use Flash and the room lit up. Gold screamed in terror.

The room was blood coloured. There were strange sounds coming from the hall in the south…like more Unowns. The room was a setting in hell itself, Gold figured. He turned to go back downstairs but the stairs had vanished.

“Just where am I?”

Gold grabbed his pokegear. The map function was always accurate and maybe a little music would help chase away the freaky sounds. But his pokegear was blank. There was no clock, no phone function and no radio. His map was blank and only showed three question marks, indicating the map had no idea where he was.

Scared out of his wits, Gold began to run. The Unown kept following him but he didn’t care. He had to get out of here…for his sake and Cyndaquil’s. His Cyndaquil was extremely weak and needed a doctor right away.

The more Gold ran. the darker the room became. Finally, he reached the end of the hall. To his disappointment, there was no stairs or door. Only a sign. Hoping it would give him a clue as to where he was, Gold read the sign.

TURN BACK NOW.

“Sure, I’d love to,” Gold grumbled. There was a loud rumbling sound and Cyndaquil uttered a weakened cry before going limp in Gold’s arms. A sudden pain gripped Gold and he screamed. The dark closed in…

When Gold awoke, there were six new Unown hovering over him. They seemed to be saying something…

H

E

D

I

E

“What? No!” Gold yelled. He tried to stand but he had no feeling left in his arms. The light suddenly came on and a sad melody began playing. The Unown helped Gold to stand and Gold looked down at himself. He realized why he had no feeling in his arms…because his arms were gone.

“WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?” Gold yelled. “First I’m trapped and now my Cyndaquil’s dead and my ARMS ARE GONE! WHO’S SICK IDEA IS THIS?”

YOU MADE HIM USE FLASH WHEN HE WAS TOO WEAK

YOU KILLED HIM

Gold realized he appeared to be in a graveyard. Freaked out and wishing he had his arms back, he started to run around until he froze. Something was pulling him under. The dark moved in…

Red. Everywhere. Gold thought he was back in the blood red room from before, but he was wrong. This room looked like the first room he was trapped in, but so so red. He felt something wet drip from his eyes and attempted to rub his face on his sweater. To his shock, his legs were now gone as well and he had turned white. The liquid dripped off his face and into his sweater. It was red, just like everything else.

Gold realized he was crying blood.

Five new Unown swirled around him. They were followed by a red Celebi who flew up to Gold from the side. The five Unown lined up and Gold read what they spelled out.

D

G

“I’m…dying…?” Gold guessed. The red Celebi nodded and faced him. Gold could hardly suppress a scream. The red Celebi seemed to be torn in half. One green eye stared at him, one hand pointed an accusing finger, one small foot kicked around in the air, supported by only one wing.

I SAID I WOULD TAKE CARE OF YOU

NOW COME WITH ME

THERE IS SOMEONE WAITING TO MEET YOU

The red Celebi motioned for the Unowns to move so the five pokemon picked Gold up with their Hidden Power and started forward. Gold shuddered, feeling colder than he had ever felt in his life. He wondered who it was waiting for him.

At first Gold thought he was alone with only the pokemon around him. But as they ventured further down this creepy hall, they passed a bunch of mangled humans that were pale like Gold. They didn’t speak but they did follow Gold and the six pokemon with their hollow gazes. A sudden realization dawned on Gold. These people were all trainers…and famous ones at that. They were all either Champions or former Gym Leaders or members of the Elite Four. But no matter how much power you had in life, it doesn’t help you escape your inevitable death. And now it was Gold’s turn in hell’s waiting room.

He really was dying.

YOU SEE ALL THOSE TRAINERS THERE

THEY THOUGHT THEY WERE THE BEST

THEIR PARTNERS DIED ONE BY ONE

AND THEN IT WAS THEIR TURN

A figure stood up ahead. His back was to Gold and he was as pale and ghostly as the others were. The Unowns hovered behind Gold and the Celebi flew in front of him.

HE WAS MEANT TO BE THE BEST

AND HE WAS

UNTIL YOUR TIME CAME

The figure turned, revealing the legendary trainer Red. Gold stared at him in shock, seeing how much time could change a person. He first met Red on top of Mt. Silver so many years ago but that was when they were both young and powerful. Now they were long forgotten…

Without a word, Red sent out his Pikachu. It looked powerful but so sad and lost at the same time. Celebi hovered in front of Gold, awaiting an order.

I WILL MAKE HIM PERISH WITH MY SONG

Pikachu struck itself, lowering his speed but raising his offensive and defensive stats. Gold didn’t think it was possible for Pikachu to learn Curse but this wasn’t an ordinary battle.

“Perish Song.”

Pikachu ran at Celebi, striking the one side that was there but Celebi hardly flinched. The song was still in affect. Warily, Pikachu ran at Celebi again, putting all his sadness into one attack. Celebi recoiled, hardly holding on. But Celebi smirked and flew at Pikachu, stealing some blood from him and using it to heal itself.

“Pain Split…”

Pikachu shot a strange look at Celebi, making it freeze. The song came into effect and claimed Celebi first, making it vanish. Pikachu soon followed, fading out of existence. Who had won? Gold looked up in question at the boy who was once his idol and saw that Red no longer had a head.

The darkness came…

Gold opened his eyes to find himself back in his bedroom. He looked around, wondering if this was a joke but it was his actual room. His PC, radio and TV were all there. Had it all been a dream? He couldn’t wait to get downstairs and see Mom!

He tried to move but there was no feeling left in his body. Six new Unowns lined up and faced Gold with a freezing glance.

E

“No more…” Gold mumbled. “No more…” He looked down to see what the Unowns meant. His body was gone. All that remained of him now was a head. He, Gold, was soon to be no more.

The Unown made his head float and Gold reflected on how pitiful he seemed to be. This was the end of his life. Memories of his earlier years came flooding back to him. He wasn’t really an eleven year old boy, but an old man who had more than enough of life to satisfy himself. He had traveled through five regions in his life: Johto, Kanto, Hoenn, Sinnoh and Isshu and had collected eight badges from all regions, resulting in forty badges total. He became an idol to pokemon trainers everywhere. And now, at the end of his life, he was granted one last chance to go back to being an eleven year old boy and say good bye to everything.

His first pokemon was his Cyndaquil. It seemed fitting he got to see his old friend at the beginning again as well. Gold tried to smile but it was becoming painful to move. He let the Unowns lead him down the stairs and to the first floor. There was no Mom, of course. She had been dead for a long time. They went through the door into a world of darkness and didn’t stop until they found Gold’s body…as it was before this all started.

All arms. All legs. Normal colour. Gold looked upon his body sadly before whispering, “Good bye forever…Gold…”

It was time to go. The body vanished into the darkness. A haunting chill surrounded Gold and he heard an evil sounding laugh echo from all around him.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

IT’S YOUR ****ING NIGHTMARE

He was back at the graveyard. The large grave he found himself in after Cyndaquil died turned out to be his own. He was no more. His head had vanished. He was truly a ghost of the past now. His badges were gone…presumably given to his family or buried with him and stolen by grave robbers. The gym leaders he won them from were all long dead as well.

Six new Unowns circled the ghost with a final message. Gold whispered his last words sadly before closing his eyes forever.

“I’m dead.”

I was waiting for my trainer to send me out in battle. I Golem was undefeated waiting to show off what me and my trainer could do. As the other trainer sent out his last pokemon my trainer sent me out. Anticipation shot through me as I knew I could KO the other trainers pokemon. Then my trainer told me to use explosion. Fear shot through my body as I realized what had to be done…I exploded as I became the first suicide bomber.Knowing that he had told me to die.

A few months ago, I had purchased an MP3 player from the local supermarket. Nothing fancy, as I don't need all of these bells and whistles that most have. It holds 2 gigabytes of data and has no screen or method of selecting song order, but, y'know, it was $15 and it provides me with what I need.

At one point last month, I was listening to some music on my way home, and suddenly there was an 8-bit-sounding track that I didn't recognize. I had a similar occurrence in the first batch of MP3s I loaded onto the device, where I accidentally loaded some music from the game Psycho Soldier that I thought I had deleted, but accidentally dragged into the folder. After deleting the file from the MP3 player, however, the music continued to remain on the device. The only difference was that I never downloaded this new music.

So I listened to this new track that had randomly popped up, trying to pinpoint it. I knew I had heard it somewhere before, but its origin was not immediately forthcoming. It was a strange, eerie tone, and it made my hair feel tingly, as if it were standing up on end. After the track ended and the next began, I pressed the Previous Track button to return to this mystery song, but it simply returned me to the track prior to the new one. I kept cycling between the one that had come before the new track, and the one that came after. There was no sign of this track after it had finished playing. To put it mildly, I began to get creeped out. After I arrived home, however, I put the event out of my mind.

Three days later I was on my way home again, and the track came on in between two other, completely different tracks. I spent some time trying to identify the sound again, and I was still perplexed as to this track's origin. During this time, I happened to glance over a vehicle, a Lincoln Zephyr, which had its logo spelled out in Unowns on the side. I chuckled a bit, finding a Pokémon fan hardcore enough to do such a thing amusing.

The track was still on my mind when I got home, so I set out to do some research. Checking the files on the MP3 player itself, I found that, like the Psycho Soldier track, it was nowhere to be physically found. I checked my download history to see if I had accidentally downloaded it at some point and transferred it without thinking, but there was nothing of the sort.

I also went through several dozen catalogs of 8-bit gaming music, spending hours of time doing so, but did not find a match to this mysterious music. Dismayed, I went to sleep with the tone echoing in my head.

That night, I dreamed of a spectral girl in a long white dress. Possessing long black hair that covered her face and lacking fingernails, she closely resembled The Ring's antagonist. As she floated along a foggy graveyard, she kept chanting "The answer is in the letters," over and over. When I awoke, the dream still lingered in my mind.

It wasn't until the following Monday that I had an opportunity to listen to my MP3 player again, and once again, it happened on my way home from work. This time, I had made the connection. During the previous instance, I had only just happened to glance at the logo of a vehicle once, not paying any attention to any other words or lettering around me. This time, I focused on every sign, every license plate, every pedestrian's t-shirt. All of them, for the duration of the track, were spelled out in the appropriate Unowns.

This is when it had hit me. I hadn't played the game in question for some time, and especially this specific section, which is why the answer was not immediately forthcoming. I raced home to boot up YouTube and confirmed my suspicion: the track was the theme for the Ruins of Alph.

It took a few minutes to absorb all of this. Somehow, the Ruins of Alph music had implanted itself into my MP3 player despite my not having acquired it. It was playing at complete random instances, and when it was occurring, I was seeing Unown in any instance of lettering around me. Okay, it was strange, but not necessarily fear-inducing. At best, it was some sort of repressed memory hallucination.

The following weekend, I was staying overnight at my parents' house. It was late at night, after my folks had gone to bed. My brother was sitting at his computer, and I had brought my laptop, so we were both just checking up on various things such as the news and Facebook before we went to bed. Listening to my MP3 player, I came across the Ruins of Alph track again. I urged my brother to come over and listen to it. Putting one of the headphones on, he said, "Yeah. It's On a Boat."

"You're not hearing some creepy 8-bit music?"

"No. It's definitely On a Boat."

He went back to his computer while I listened to the rest of the track with confusion. Toward the end of the track, there was some sort of weird, garbled noise, like when a CD skips repeatedly. This wasn't here previously, so I took special note of this occurrence. Following the track's end, in which On a Boat actually did start playing, I plugged the MP3 player into the USB slot of my laptop again, searching once more for some sign of a file that I had overlooked before.

Burrowed amongst a wall of MP3 files, was something that stood out from the rest, something I hadn't seen before. It was a file labeled pkmnslvr.gbc. Recognizing this as a Game Boy Color ROM, I booted it up in my emulator.

It was indeed Pokémon Silver, but what I saw upon running the ROM made my palms begin to sweat.

The trainer name was "The S", and upon loading the game, I had my old party from my cartridge game. The current location was the Ruins of Alph. I knew all too well what was going on: this was a ROM of the haunted Silver version I had discarded months earlier!

Scrambling across the keyboard to shut down the emulator, I accidentally bumped the down arrow, causing the trainer to walk forward and enter a battle. The opponent was the Generation 1 MissingNo., just as I had seen in the corrupted Silver version that had plagued me. At this point, my cell phone started ringing - the ring tone was the Ruins of Alph music, complete with the glitchy, garbled noise from the last time I had heard it. I shut down the emulator, deleted the ROM file, and began using my various anti-malware programs to ensure that there was nothing else malicious afoot. Everything passed through clean.

I haven't had any other problems with this MP3 player since then, other than that Psycho Soldier track that I still can't get rid of. As for the cell phone, all that I saw when I finally had the nerve to open it was a missed call message with a blank number.

[Hybrid Trainer]

Your just too good The S. The way you can even link the two stories together like that. Brilliant.
being completely honest. If you were to write i book it would sell millions.

^Seconding what he said XD It was epic. You're the only one I've really seen who can actually take pokemon creepypasta away from the games

2 new fyeah updates! But yours has me favorited today The S

EASTER EGG - SNOW ON MT. SILVER
So, my brother and I, we kinda grew up on pokemon. Around here a lot of kids did. It worked out perfectly for us, too- every time a new gen came out one of us would get one version, one of us would get the other, and since our mum liked to spoil us a bit we both got the 3rd one. This is going to sound, at first, like a bittersweet story about two siblings who grow up with a couple of games that eventually take them down two different roads… Well, it’s a little more than that.

The years rolled by, we kept collecting. Gameboys got old; we replaced them. Cartridges finally gave out, we picked up new copies. But we started down two completely different roads before R/S/E came out. See, around then my brother got a Gameshark. We had heard all the hacks and cheats you could do with them, even if we were kind of late to the party, and they sounded awfully cool.
Our first guinea pig cartridge was my brother’s old Blue version. We just dicked around with it a little bit, nothing major. But whatever we did ****ed the cartridge up. After just a couple of code entries, it glitched out completely and became unplayable. Naturally we were upset at first; my brother mourned the loss of his hours of work, and I was sympathetic. I told him, “It’s okay, we can replace it I guess. Stupid shark was a waste of money.”
But here our paths finally differed. After seeing the mess it had turned Blue version into, I had become opposed to the idea of hacking or cheating any of my games. (What can I say? I’m a chick. I feel feelings for the little pixel-critters.) At least with that gameshark. But my brother had taken his game’s destruction as a personal challenge or something- don’t think he ever played a game after that which wasn’t hacked somehow. Yeah, we played a **** ton of pokemon, man. But for us there really wasn’t much else to do; we live way out in the country without many other kids, and the farmers didn’t want us on their property… so… we played pokemon out on the lawn just about all day, every day. It was pretty awesome to us, at least.
We lost the gameshark when our rooms got moved around. A new addition was built onto our house and it disappeared in the mess of **** that got stuffed into the new closet.

R/S/E arrived, and after playing through them once we were both in agreement that they were definitely lacking in comparison to the last gen. We both tried another honest play-through, and though we managed to finish, it left us both yearning for some good old-fashioned nostalgia. Where were our old G/S/C cartridges, though? It took us probably a month to dig through the boxes we’d been too lazy to open up before, but we finally found one full of a ****load of all our old electronics: My old purple Gameboy Color still worked, his red one could no longer hold batteries in place. Both of our GBAs were fine, though, along with our snakelights and link cables, that one with the nifty little connector in the middle that I had always wrapped up oh-so-carefully to avoid fraying the wires and condemning it to the trash like our last cable.
We both grabbed up everything we could. It was so nice to have Yellow (which had been my first and most cherished game of any series, not just pokemon) and Red and Gold back.
We went through the motions of checking our old files, taking in all the old memories, and eventually we figured the gen 1 stuff was just too nostalgic to get rid of. I restarted Gold, he restarted Silver. Immediately he snatched the Gameshark out of the box and slipped it into the back of his GBA. I just shook my head at him. I remember what I said to him.

“That thing will kill your game, you know.”

He never had liked me preaching to him about ‘abusing pixels.’ I shut my mouth after that, but it had put him off playing with me. I guess it was just one time too many or something; I oughta know to keep my thoughts to myself, really…

It was a couple of days later that it happened. I was out on the porch, gameboy in-hand, just about to go into the E4 when I realized I needed a little help. My team was ill-balanced thanks to my playing through for leisure, and at the time I was no great trainer that could pull off gimmick runs. I knew that my brother had been two badges ahead of me when we’d last checked with one another, so I was hoping maybe he’d let me borrow a poke or two just for this run-through.
Now, the thing is that I’d spent the last 24 hours at a friend’s place. I had literally come home, dumped my bag in my room, and crept out into the sun with my GBA to play. I had no idea what he’d been up to. For all I knew he was done with the game and onto a new one… which, I figured, was all the better for me since he wouldn’t need those pokemon and I’d stand a better chance of nicking a few. So I got up and went into the house, and when I was crossing the living room I noticed all of his pokemon games lying on the floor. Some of the cartridges had been mangled, like they’d been hacked at with something sharp. Even his old Blue version, long ago dead and too sentimental to throw away, was lying with the plastic cut ragged, split almost halfway up one side, completely unusable anymore even if it would have worked.
I was a little scared. This had to have happened this morning, otherwise our mum would have seen and they wouldn’t be lying on the carpet. Tucking my GBA into my pocket, I crept over to his room and found the door unlocked. Somehow that was even more concerning.

I walked in and found my brother sitting on the edge of his bed. His GBA was in pieces on the floor at his feet, smashed to bits. Next to him on the bed were a hammer and our mother’s gardening scissors. His face was paler than I’d ever seen it, whiter than the time we’d gone corning and the old guy up the street, legally blind and a raving nutcase, had come and chased us into the trees with a shotgun. It was now I also noticed the gameshark on the ground, and a silver cartridge corner poking from under his bed. Somehow they had been spared the wrath of the hammer.

“Are you okay?” I asked. I remember the chills that ran through me. He was my little brother. Seeing him like this was horrifying.
“It was awful,” I remember him rasping, and the way his voice rattled made my knees weak. “Oh god. White everywhere, and then BLACK…”

I remember running over and hugging him. And I remember, his limp arm fell and brushed the gameboy in my pocket, and his sudden scream, right in my ear, making me jump and bite my tongue by accident. He ripped the handheld from my pocket and hurled it at the far wall. I cried out at the dent the plastic system made there, running over to collect it. The screen had gone dark, and though I feared the worst when I flicked the switch it powered up normally. I waited there in the corner, trying to pretend the GBA mattered enough not to go and run for our mum.

The volume was on.

The pokemon theme started up, and he screamed again, picking up the hammer. This time /I/ screamed, too, and ran from the room with my GBA clutched to my chest like a shield.

He ended up in the psyche ward of the hospital for two days. When we went to visit him, I left my GBA at home. No one could figure out what had set off his strange, manic behavior. There was some talk that I didn’t understand at the time about some kind of disorder he may or may not have had, but even though mum and I had collected and brought in all the cut-up cartridges to be looked at (mum’s idea, not mine), no one had even thought to tie it back to the game… maybe that was my fault. I hadn’t said a word about what had happened when he had accidentally touched my Gameboy, or the blind, white terror he had been thrown into when the music had started.
On my last visit to the hospital before school on the second day, I was left alone in the room with him while mum had some private talk with the doctor about precautions to take should this happen again. I sat in a chair next to the bed where he was staring at the ceiling. But then suddenly he sat up, making me flinch.
“Hey,” he told me, “Angie. Go in my room when you get home.”

I didn’t understand what he meant, and then I remembered the things we hadn’t packed up and brought in… the game and the hacking tool under his bed.

“Get rid of them. I don’t ever want to play with them ever again.”

His voice was so weary and desperate… he sounded like an old man on his deathbed. My poor, damaged little brother… how could I refuse?

“Promise you’ll get rid of them.”

“Okay. I promise.”

I was carted off to school late, and through the whole day I only had my promise to him in my head. I didn’t know it at the time, but this would be the last time that I could ever play the big-sister role and help him out. I just had to get home and get rid of that game… but as the day went on a sick curiosity started to go through my own head. What could possibly have happened to that game that scared him so badly? I was scared, myself, but I just had to know. I had to.

I got home and went right into his room, bent on uncovering whatever horror was waiting for me. Mum had since vacuumed the room, and the cartridge and gameshark were no longer visible. I got down and crawled half under the bed, feeling timid but holding onto the promise I made as my badge of courage. Under the bed there was enough dust to make me cough, enough old legos and various other toys that I couldn’t set my elbow down without it landing on something. But I finally saw both objects. They’d been shoved to the corner, on top of a notebook that looked too new to have been down here long. Unthinking, I grabbed the corner of the paper and dragged everything out with me, still wheezing from the dust. (Allergies and all.)
They looked so innocent, simple toys and a simple, spiral-bound bunch of papers. When I set Silver version and the gameshark on the floor, I took a closer look at the notebook. On it were scrawled at least twenty different cheat codes, but one had been scratched out with sharpie over where it had initially been drawn in with pen. This was confusing. He had REALLY tried to erase it out- the marker had been pressed to the paper so hard that ink soaked through most of the pages behind it, almost 2/3rds of the way to the card-stock back cover. But pen has a way of sticking around. I picked up the notebook and tilted it backward in the light, and the reflective surface of the sharpie revealed the indents that had been left where he’d written. The code was an unintelligible mess of letters and numbers, but the words next to it confused me.

“Easter Egg - Snow on Mt. Silver”

I remembered what he had said when I’d found him… he had been raving about white, white and then black… could he mean snow? Even though it was only August and the temperature was still climbing to 90 degrees every day, a chill ran down my spine. Did I dare…?

I picked everything up and brought it to my room, and laid it out on the carpet in front of me with my own GBA next to it. For a long time I just stared down at it, and the longer I looked, the more maniacal Lugia’s face became on the sticker… like some kind of twisted grin, like it was daring me to find out what had happened to my brother. I was a 14 year old kid. Did I really want to tempt fate and risk ending up like him? I glared down at Lugia for awhile longer.

I had to see.
I slid Gold out of my GBA and stuck Silver in in its place. It took me almost 15 minutes to compose myself and turn it on.

It started up normally. I left the sound on low, too afraid of what I might hear to keep it up the full way, and too curious to turn it the whole way off. The title screen was normal, too. Lugia again, but somehow menacing despite my common sense telling me it was exactly the same picture as every other time I had started up the game. How bad could this be? I asked myself. His notes said Easter egg. Didn’t that mean that that was coding already in the game?
The menu came up… still absolutely normal. His character was Blake, with a mostly filled pokedex… but the time was odd. 999:99. I KNEW he couldn’t have been playing that long… I had barely logged 50 hours on my own game and I was at the E4… and I was playing slowly. Probably the result of his hacking ****ing up his file, I thought. Well, whatever then…
The game started up, and the first thing I noticed was the prolonged black screen. It took almost a minute for anything to change… and there was no sound at all. The hairs on the back of my neck were standing up already, but it was too late to turn back.

Finally, a very dim sort of map came onto the screen… but it looked like static. What was going on? I squinted down and realized with a fearsome pang that it was actually the Mt. Silver map… but what I thought was static was heavy-falling snow. So this was where he had last saved his game. I checked his party… a very normal team for someone who’d been using a Gameshark: Typhlosion, Feraligatr, Meganium, Pidgeot, Tyranitar, Lugia, all level 100 with modded moves… typical for him. Something about the sprites was… strange, though. They seemed sullen, in a way. Their colors seemed washed-out, and their expressions lacked the usual vigor they normally had. I chalked this up to missing pixels or something, also due to the hacking…
The map had brightened up just a smidgeon when I closed out of the start menu. Indeed, snow was somehow falling very heavily; pixels danced across the screen so fast it was hard to see the little sprite that was my brother’s character. Something was off about him, too. When I checked the information, it was the same as the pokemon sprites; the colors were dull. In fact, now that I thought about it, he almost looked frostbitten.

My stomach tightened, and I turned and tried to move back down the mountain. As I hit the bottom of the screen, words popped up, and there was finally a sound – my sprite hitting an invisible wall.

“I can’t turn back now.”

That was… unsettling. I went into my pokemon and tried to use Pidgeot’s ‘Fly’ ability.

“I can’t fly in this!” obviously referring to the snow.

‘**** this,’ I thought, going into his bag. There was an escape rope. I tried using it.

“I can’t go back anymore.”

What was going on? Once again, I tried to walk back down the mountain, and to my horror the words changed with every attempt.

“I can’t run away.”
“I can’t go back down.”

“I can never go back.”

This last one sent a frigid feeling through my heart. There was no way down the mountain. I had to climb. Turning the little sprite around, I moved him forward.

No resistance at all, though my walking speed was oddly slow. What was truly weird was the lack of grass, of trainers, of anything at all but that white snow, which still blew across the screen and made it almost impossible to see.
As I moved further “up” the mountain, his walking speed became slower, and slower. The static curtain of pixels grew thicker, so that I could barely make out the features of the map… but it seemed like the only way to move was straight ahead anyway. I reached what looked like a set of stairs at the very top edge of the screen. I didn’t remember this being there before. As I tried to move up, the little sprite paused.

“I’m cold.”

By now even I was getting goosebumps. His walking speed had become painfully slow, as if somehow he was being impeded. Up the little staircase…

More text on the screen.

“Meganium has died.”

What the ****, I thought. Pokemon don’t die in these games. I checked in my party, and was frightened and confused by what I saw.

Meganium’s sprite had been replaced by a red X. All of my other pokemon sported varying degrees of damage, though I hadn’t battled once. I went into my bag and found a single revive, and tried to use it.

“It’s too late,” it said. What kind of easter egg was this?

There wasn’t much else I could do… trying to turn around yielded the same messages as before. So I kept moving.

“Pidgeot has died.”

I checked again… sure enough, there was the little red X. This time I selected it and looked at the pokemon itself, trying to figure out what was wrong… I wished I hadn’t.
The sprite was mangled; pieces of it were missing. What was left was splotched with a sickish blue-grey color, and its eye was a solid black pit. I flipped down to Meganium- same deal, a leg missing, a chunk of its neck, most of its head, save that pitch-black, dead eye.

Morbid curiosity urged me onward, and the path never deviated from the straight upward road I’d traveled the entire time. Along the way, every now and then, another party pokemon would ‘die’ and examination of its sprite would show it was in the same condition as the others. Until all that was left was Typhlosion. One more stair case was up ahead. I climbed it, braced for whatever horror awaited me.

I hit the summit.

It was deserted – Red was nowhere to be found.

The snow had stopped falling.

In the very center of the map was something sticking out of the snow. It looked like a pokeball. Okay, maybe all this creepy **** lead up to some climactic, final battle using whatever was in THERE. If I picked it up, maybe Red would come out of hiding. I walked over an examined it, and there was a burst of static noise from my game that made me jump.

What appeared on the screen was a battle animation, my trainer sprite appearing, his skin tinged blue… against another mangled pokemon sprite.

It was Celebi.
In the center of that black hole that was its eye, a single red dot burned out like an ember. The thing looked rotted. I didn’t even throw out my mostly-dead typhlosion before it had moved.

“Celebi used Perish Song.”

A screech came out of my GBA, and I almost dropped it as the screen went white. A part of me was relieved, thinking that my final pokemon had been KO’d and I would be transported to a pokemon center… but I was wrong. My sprite reappeared in what looked like a cave; was in now inside the mountain? I checked my trainer card and felt sick. The sprite was just as mauled as the pokemon had been; a leg gone. A single eye remaining, pitch-black and so, so sad looking, tears welled up at the corner… And every color on him was replaced by those sick shades of frosty blue-and-grey. Every stat on the card was reduced to 0, except the time, which still read 999:99.

I quickly moved back to the map. His sprite there mimicked the horror it had become on the trainer card; pieces were missing, everything was discolored. I started trying to walk, and at first I received a message.

“It’s so cold.”

There was only one direction to go- upward. I moved on, and every now and then would be stopped by a message that made my heart sink lower and lower.
“Mother…”

“It feels so cold…”

“I can’t go on…”

The walls, as I walked, became darker and darker, until they were pitch-black at the end.

There was an exit there, marked only by a white outline. I had no other choice but to go through it.

It opened into a chamber that was also solid white… the only way to distinguish the walls was a thin grey line that marked them as separate from the floor. Against the far wall there was another sprite. Red’s sprite. Intact. I had come this far… I had to finish this. I walked right up to him and hit A.

“…”

A battle started.

Red’s sprite had none of the deformities that marred my own. The colors were the same blues and greys, but he was intact. He just looked… extremely sad. His first pokemon came out; Venusaur. It was just like my own had been… but level 0, with a speck of health. I sent out typlosion, who had just 6 hitpoints left. No pokemon made a sound when they were brought into battle.

“Venusaur used struggle!”

There was no animation, just a single point of damage done to typhlosion, and then the opposing sprite dropped off the screen.

“Venusaur has died!”

There was no text asking me to switch out. Instead, there was just what I took to be dialogue from Red.

“…”
His next pokemon was Blastoise, even more mangled than Venusaur had been. It too struggled and died. After each round there was that ominous “…” from their trainer. Every sprite was more damaged than the last; his Espeon was barely distinguishable as a pokemon. I realized somewhere he was sending them out all out of order, which saved one pokemon for last…

Pikachu came out, and it was grotesque. It, too, was discolored like it was frostbitten. It was missing an ear, half its body and tail, its head was mostly intact but its eyes were much larger than they should have been, and glared out at me like pitch-black windows into hell… but the thing that got me the most was the giant smile that extended almost all the way to the edges of its head. Its health was somehow at 0, or at least looked that way.
My hands were shaking. I didn’t get a chance to attack.

“Pikachu used Pain Split.”

“Pikachu has died! Typhlosion has died!”

It cut back to the image of Red’s sprite… and now it looked like mine, with his body so butchered it looked like a carcass stripped of most of its meat… except it had those same, soulless, deranged eyes as pikachu.

I finally understood what happened. They were dead. They were dead, and this sublevel of the mountain was the hell they now existed in.

Red finally spoke.
“It’s over.”

The screen flashed black and white for a moment.

“ used Destiny Bond!”

A horrible, hideous screeching started to issue from my GBA. The screen went white and it shrieked at me, and I threw it to the floor and pressed my back against the bed. The horrible noise continued for several long moments while the screen stayed white.

Then went black.

Then there was silence.

It took me a long few moments, but I eventually stood up. I took the gameshark. I took the notebook. I took that ****ing possessed game. I picked them all up and carried them to the garbage can we had already set out for morning pickup, at the end of our long, winding driveway… and I threw them in. When I got back to the house, I don’t know what made me do it, but I picked up yellow version and inserted it into my Gameboy… I think it was part of me determined to make sure I hadn’t somehow been tainted as well.
The music started up. The game played. I turned to my pikachu and hit A.

Its smiling face greeted me with an ear twitch and a big, pixelated smile. A pleasant, normal smile. I turned my game off, and spent the next hour crying on the floor.

My brother and I never did play pokemon together again – he gave it up for good. I stuck to replaying my comforting, unhacked games.

That winter, the snow fell thick.

A CLEAN SLATE
I awoke in my room like any other normal day, changed into my clothes like any other normal day, and checked my computer for e-mails like any other normal day. There was no sense of foreboding before it happened, no warning feeling like the instincts of an animal, just a typical morning. I stumbled down the stairs and found my mother sitting at the table. She was oddly still. I mean REALLY still, she didn’t breathe or blink or talk until I tugged on her dress. A noise rang in my ears. I recognized the voice of my mother echoing against the kitchen walls. Her mouth didn’t move. Stillness. The echo was loud and hurt my ears, so I curled over on the ground in an effort to drown the sound out. I then began panicking at the moment the echo stopped. I paid no attention to what the echo spoke, nor did I care. At first I was cautious, prodding her lightly. But she kept still and quiet, the same strange grin stretched across her face. I grew hysterical and tugged at her blouse, breaking down in tears on the tiled floor. In my blinded and mad state, I punched my own mother and clawed at her skin. There was no look of pain on her face as my nails dug into her flesh, and no blood or red swelling as I hoped to cause her pain. I suppose I fainted after that, for I could not remember what happened for a few hours after that. Perhaps I went mad and destroyed the house, but all I know is that I awoke in a strange room, much to dark to see… against the darkness a figure materialized and without lips moving, spoke these horrible words:

“Hello! Are you a boy? Or are you a girl?”

[Zoroark-Nightmare]

this makes me not want to play my older games, ever AGAIN. EVER EVER EVER!!!

So, that's where missing no comes from..
What's weird is...

I've had nightmares before about this. Before I knew about it just now.

it'd start off with your character walking through a town, then all the people turned white and bloody and tried to grab you, then you ran into the woods while mutts just tore your legs off, and you sit there and this litte girl walks up and says "help me" as her skin melts off and her eyes fall out, and this ugly beast tears her heart out through her back, comes up to you and slashes your face.

EDIT:
I made pictures of the terrible people..
here's what most of the dying people looked like

EDIT: I swear upon my life that this nightmare is exactly how I tell it. MY LIFE.

Second pic:http://img185.imageshack.us/img185/6285/49475854.gif the part where the beast said to the guy in my nightmare "come join me..." and when I read this, I remembered about the dream and TOTALLY flipped out.



I absolutely hate the missingno creepypasta and the lost silver one.. =(

[Shanghai Alice]

The S...

You need to stop writing. Now. You're too good. You'll make me suicidal.

The whole story was... nothing special.

Then I read the end. I'm shivering.


Also, Zoroark Nightmare, that was freakishly surreal.

...
Forgotten Red

One day, I was walking home from a friend's house after his birthday party had ended. I could've have taken a shorter route home, but instead I decided to take the long way, past the liquor store. I still regret that decision to this very day.

Upon making it to the store, I noticed something sitting between the sidewalk and the street. It was near the gutter. Upon leaning my head over a few inches, I found that the object appeared to be a red Gameboy game cartridge. As there was only one red colored cartridge that I had ever seen in my life, I ran over to it. Much to my excitement, it was a copy of Pokémon Red.

However, the game seemed to be in pretty bad shape, what with its ripped label and slightly cracked case. Upon looking at the back, I saw a label that I had assumed the previous owner had stuck on the game to keep track of it (much like I did upon owning more than one of each version). On the label I could see some words written, but the label was too scratched to read.

At first, I questioned why anyone would just toss a copy of Pokémon Red to the ground and forget about it, as if they wanted to get rid of it. At the time, I ignored these facts and was just happy to have another Pokémon game to play.

As I returned home, I quickly ran into my room and grabbed my Gameboy Advance SP from my dresser. I inserted the battered game into the system and hit "On" so that I may relive a classic game from my past.

As the game started, I saw the traditional opening scene and title screen as a wave of nostalgia blew across my body. I entered the usual menu and a proceeded to click New Game… or so I was, however to button did nothing. Already feeling this odd, I scrolled down to Options. Just as with New Game, that didn't work either.

By now, I thought to myself that the game was broken and could not be played, but what did I expect from a game sitting on the side of the street? However, I decided to give the Continue option a go, before making any official proclamations. Without showing any player data, I was sent into the game.

Upon entering the game, I was in the space where you normally are when you start the game, in your room in Pallet Town. I decided to check the player options to see what was on this file. The first thing I noticed was that the player's name was RED (yeah, really original kid). I checked his trainer card which revealed his $999,999 and 8 gym badges, nothing completely unusual. Finally, I moved up to his Pokémon team.

My eyes grew wide when I saw that the team was indeed Red's team, his team from HeartGold and SoulSilver. Pikachu, Venusaur, Blastoise, Charizard, Snorlax, and Lapras were all there.

Interestingly, Lapras only had 3 moves and one of them was Surf.
Having enough of this, I decided to go downstairs to see if everything was normal. I walked over to my mom expecting to see the usual text, however it was indeed different:

"Oh RED, PROF. OAK is looking for you. He wants to give you something for your victory in the league."

Victory in the league? Did I already win? This definitely seemed like a hacked game at this point, but I was just getting started and wanted to explore more.

I walked outside into a normal Pallet Town and walked into Oak's lab. As I stepped in, my character walked up to him without me controlling him (Like at the beginning of the game when he brings you there).

At this moment, Oak just went on about how he was proud of me and all that jazz until he finally gave me an item, HM00. Quickly checking my items, I only had the HM, so I booted it up. It contained Waterfall.
However startled by the unexpected HM, I felt that it must have just been part of the hack, so I continued on. I remembered that my Lapras had a free space, so I taught him the move.

Upon leaving the lab, I walked up toward Route 1, only to find it blocked off by CUT trees. Knowing that there was another way out of Pallet Town, I ventured to the bottom, to the water. I went to my party and chose to surf on Lapras.

Shortly after I began to surf down, I saw what appeared to be 2 sideways water tiles, replacing the game's border to the left. I moved over toward them only to realize that I could not pass. After a small amount of thinking, I decided to see what waterfall would do.

After using the move, I was able to pass over the tiles and ventured westward into the new area. The path I followed was very linear for about a minute, before I was told to surf north. Shortly after that, I found myself in what I could easily recognize as New Bark Town in Johto.

Now I know what you're all thinking, what's so creepy about this story? The hacker edited part of the Johto region into Red version, so what? Just wait for it.

I decided to explore the devamped town to judge it for detail, only to realize that none of the buildings had working warps. Disappointed that the hacker had seemed to forget the warps in the town, I decided to continue west onto Route 29, or so I believed I would.

What I think was one step away from entering the route, my controls locked. I soon saw what appeared to be the sprite of Gold, except in GBC monochrome just as the rest of the town. He simply spoke these words:

"…
Why are you here?"

Just then, a battle initiated. On the other side of the screen, I saw the monochrome sprite of Gold from the 2nd Gen games, except he seemed angry.

He sent out his Typhlosion, level 100, which immediately made me concerned as it had its sprite hacked in as well, but just as Gold had, he dawned an angry look on his face. I sent out my Pikachu, level 88. Without knowing how he seemed to One-hit KO all of my Pokémon with just Flamethrower (including Charizard and Blastoise!).

What surprised me even more was the lack of a "whited out" or "blacked out" text box. Instead, I returned to the overworld with another textbox appearing:

"…
Why are you here?
Why are you here?
Why are you here?
...
Get out."

Just then, the screen cut to black. When it returned, I was floating in what appear to be a black void, however my sprite was visible. I was unable to move at that point, so I decided to check my party to see if they were all still fainted. Upon opening the menu, my jaw dropped.
Sure my Pokémon were all at full health, but they had all decreased in level by ten (I.E. Pikachu at level 78).

This began to worry me as I went to check my trainer card. Luckily, there was no disgusting sprite change at this point as I had expected and everything looked normal. Normal, until I looked at my badges.

To my dismay, I now had only 7 badges, and the 8th was replaced by a bloody letter Y.

Upon returning to the overworld, it seemed as the black background had been replaced by Route 1… or so it appeared to be.

In reality, it was shaped like good ol' Route 1; however the borders were now replaced by Lavender Town tombstones and the entire route had the palette of Lavender as well.

Nervously, I walked upward and through the tall grass, half-expecting the Marowak Ghost to appear. At the top of the route, instead of Viridian City, was just a door. No, not attached to a building, just a standalone door.

Seeing as the way up to Viridian was blocked the same way as Route 1 was from the beginning, I had no choice but to enter the door.

The moment I warped into the new, dark room, a text box appeared:

"Lapras fainted."

Instantly, flashbacks to reading that Lost Silver creepypasta were coming back, but I regained composure and checked my trainer card again. Once again, everything seemed normal until I checked my badges.

Now, I had 6 badges. The 7th had been replaced by another bloody letter A.

Remembering that my Lapras had fainted, I checked my Pokémon. To my horror, Lapras was no longer there and, just as before, my remaining team had leveled down another 10 levels.

As I continued to play through this game, I continued to enter new rooms; my Pokémon continued to "faint", the survivors continued to decrease in level, and my gym badges continued to disappear. That is until, I reached the end.

Upon entering that last room, the process that I had become familiar with had happened again, on my second to last Pokémon:

"Venusaur fainted."

I checked my usual data, now realizing that I only had Pikachu left, level 8. This seemed very discouraging toward any possible good ending to this freaky little game I was playing. Just as before, I checked my badges.

They were now all gone and spelled out two 4-letter words:

STAY
AWAY

My heart was now racing, and I was desperately trying to bring myself to shut off the game, but to no avail, as if something wasn't letting me turn it off.

I was now in the normal Hall of Fame room, but I was able to free roam in it. Upon walking to the top of the room, I realized that it began looping, as if I was walking through and endless hallway.

After about 5 minutes of walking, I reached a downwards ladder, which was the only way out, so I took it.

I was now in New Bark Town again. Without taking a step, I was immediately facing Gold. He spoke:

"…
I said GET OUT!"

The battle began, each of us now with one Pokémon, him seeming even angrier than before.

Suddenly, he sent out a Ho-Oh, level 255. I sent out all I had left, Pikachu, now level 1.

His Ho-Oh seemed to have more of an evil grin than an angry face, but I think I knew why.

I had no items, I could not run, and I had no other Pokémon. I could only select FIGHT. My fate was sealed when it was shown to me that Pikachu didn't have any moves left.

"Ho-Oh used Sacred Fire."

As the obvious states, Pikachu fainted after one hit… but fainted isn't how the game said it:

"Pikachu died."

As this message appeared, a distorted fainting cry from the Yellow version Pikachu played as if he was dying slowly from the fire.

However after that, I still didn't black out.

My trainer sprite appeared on screen again and I was given the battle options. I chose the only thing I could choose, FIGHT. Just like Pikachu, I had no moves.

"Ho-Oh used Blast Burn."

As the move hit, the screen began to turn red as an extremely high-pitch sound that sounded like screaming started to play. I couldn't take it anymore and managed turned the game off.

I grabbed a sledgehammer from the garage and proceeded to walk to the city dump. However, once there, I remembered the label on the back of the game.

Upon looking at the torn label on the back of the cartridge again, I actually could read it:

STAY
AWAY

I tossed the game to the ground and smashed it with the sledgehammer until I couldn't recognize it as a game anymore… than hit it again for good measure. From that day forward, I promised to never play another used game ever again. However, at the same time, I don't think I could remember the 1st generation of Pokémon as the flawless time that I once did. I am also now afraid of battling Red on my HeartGold version, fearing that his spirit would come back to kill Gold (or at least my player in his place).

I know that willing suspension of disbelief is very big (Believe me, I happily rolled with The S's "The Game Knows My Past" story), but...

If I got an ultra-creepy hack, I wouldn't smash it. I'd keep it, and use it as a sick, sick prank.

[zappyspiker]

^Haha I'd do the same

It's good, have't been able to read any CPs ever since the owner of Fyeah went away for a week

But now all of them have been put up here, i've been concentrating mostly on the site.
But don't worry people, i wont let this tread die. I will do my best to keep it alive :P

[Shanghai Alice]

Everyone's read those creepy stories... The stories about the Pokemon that supposedly kill, or the hacks that contain creepy messages that show up in secondhand stores every now and then.

Sure, the stories are creepy. You read them, and you feel a shiver down your spine. But then you finish reading, and get on with your life. After all, there's no way those hacks could exist.

There's no way that someone could just find something like that, and even if there was... What impact would it have on their lives?

Unless, of course, the "hack" wasn't just a practical joke. Unless the "hack" wasn't just some urban legend.

What if the screwed up cartridge contained the words of a living, breathing person?

I didn't believe that you could butcher a Pokemon game so badly...

I honestly might never touch another cartridge for as long as I live.

-----------------------------------------------

A few years ago, I knew a kid named Jacob. We never really spoke much, and I probably never would've given him a second thought if he wasn't in my class. Even then, we were never even close. Mere acquaintances.

Life moved on, I forgot he even existed. Once we left middle school, he moved on to some private high school out in the suburbs, going out of sight and out of mind. However...

Sh**, I never should've gotten into this... About four months ago, he transferred into my high school. Bullies were giving him trouble at his old school, so, naturally, he wanted out. Understandable, considering how weak the guy actually was. But even if I hadn't known him very well... Even if I only knew him through school, I could tell that he had changed significantly in the years we had lost contact.

He had grown paler, weaker, and he'd developed a huge interest in the paranormal, stuff that typically creeped me out too much to get into.


Long story short, I befriended him out of pity, and we had some good times together. The kid was remarkably intelligent, but it was almost as if he hated the world, and thought of nothing besides revenge.

The kid offed himself about two months ago, two months after I'd gotten to know him. No warning, nothing to push him over the edge, he just...

His parents (Who were surprisingly friendly and positive, considering who there kid was) had found him hanging from the ceiling. Underneath his body, he had left a blank red GBA cartridge, with a messily written note stating that the cartridge was "For T S." My initials.

I was one of the few people who attended his funeral, though it was more out of respect for the parents. What mattered most was, though I hate to admit it, that blank red cartridge sitting on my bookshelf at home. I had really wanted to know he wanted to show me.

I... regret my curiosity.

After the ceremonies and mourning had ended, I used my first bit of alone time to fire up my blue SP. Thinking back to those stories about Pokemon hacks, I hesitantly put Pokemon Red (What else could it be?) into the device.

I was greeted with a black screen, and then the usual intro sequence, minus the music. Instead, all that could be heard was the first note of the Lavender Town melody, played over and over...

At the menu, that's when things started to get weird. I had accidentally hit NEW GAME out of habit, but, rather than Prof. Oak, these words appeared:

"Starting over isn't so easy. I made it just for you."

I mentally scratched my head, but thought nothing of it. Scrolling down to CONTINUE, I held my breath and dove in.

I was in the starting location. Like everyone else, I checked the current player.

Name: WILL
Playtime: 6:66 (What a twisted sense of humor...)
Pokedex: 6
Badges: 8

All badges with only six Pokemon...?

Whatever. I closed the window, and decided to have a little look around. It was when I actually started interacting with objects that I actually noticed the differences.

At first, I tried to leave the room. I'd seen the starting room before, so why look around?

"I can't leave. There's only one way to end this."

Slightly creeped out, I tried to ignore this, and decided to check the bed.

"Only one way to sleep..."

The computer:

"Hello, T S. Have you seen my Pokemon yet?"

I had totally forgotten about that, too wrapped up in the surroundings...

Taking a deep breath, I closed the text box, and opened the menu. Hesitating slightly, I examined his party.


Six Mews, all level 5, all with strange names.

CHECK
THE
SPACE
BEHIND
THE
TV

I didn't know why, but something... Something was sending chills up and down my spine. Maybe it was the fact that this was the last thing this kid did. Maybe because it was directed at me... Maybe because all the hints in the room pointed towards one, inevitable outcome.

I had to do it. Morbid curiosity was mixed with respect for his memory. He had wanted me to see something, and I couldn't say no...

I closed the menu, took a deep breath, and, just like finding a hidden item, checked the space behind the TV.

"Say hello to me for me."

I blinked. What the...?

Before I could hit A, the game automatically cut to a battle screen. No music (I just noticed... Has the music even been playing at all?), no sound, just the familiar animation that led to a battle.

My trainer sprite was standing in front of one of the Ghosts of Lavender Town. However, what happened next... Just read for yourself.

"JACOB wants to battle!

Go, THOMAS!

JACOB sent out JACOB!"

The Ghost disappeared, replaced by another Ghost. My sprite simply remained static.
More importantly... Thomas... That was my name. Clearly, this was more than just a usual battle.

>FIGHT PKMN
ITEM RUN

>TACKLE
----
----
----

I selected Tackle, knowing it was hopeless. But...

"Come with me, Thomas.

GHOST used SELFDESTRUCT!"

What the hell? That's not even...

A high-pitched shriek emanated from my speakers, as the screen went black.

Clearly, I had died.

This was too much for me. With sweaty hands, I flicked the power switch.

Nothing happened. The black remained, the screeching continued. I pulled the cartridge out. Still, it stayed the same...

In desperation, I opened the window in my room and threw the thing out in the street, silencing it for good.

SPs aren't that expensive anymore. I can get a new one. Sentimental value wasn't worth what I had just suffered.

As for the cartridge...

I didn't destroy it. I couldn't, and I still can't. I think there was supposed to be something after that battle, and one day, I might have the guts to reach it.

For now... I can't bear to remember those days. Though it wasn't that long ago, it feels like an eternity away...

I still have the cartridge. There was something else I was meant to see.

Sometimes, the light will flicker in my room, or the water will start running inexplicably. Maybe this house is getting old, or maybe Jacob is just checking in.

[560cool.]

I've decided to write a creepypasta : Mt. Pyre's Duskulls.
It might sound a ripoff of the one about Duskull's evolution, but it was just inspiration.
I'm keeping it as a .docx file attached because of the creepy font I found.
Opinions. ~~

The S...

You need to stop writing. Now. You're too good. You'll make me suicidal.

The whole story was... nothing special.

Then I read the end. I'm shivering.


Also, Zoroark Nightmare, that was freakishly surreal.

I swear it was a real nightmare D:

Feedback? My first creepy pasta

Hallucinations
ahhhh, another Saturday! Going home hanging out with friends... We decided to go to the mall when we saw, we saw a new shop. It was like a hut, all purple and had a golden rope tied around it. We decided to walk inside, however my friends decided not to. I went inside and it was all pokemon dolls! I looked around and saw a pokemon emerald cart, however there was duct tape around the front sticker and on the sticker it wrote "Pokemon Legends" it was written in pen and was very sloppy.
I got home and my house had a small shake, like a mini earthquake, I asked my mom if she just felt that, she said I was crazy. I decided I was just tired... I went upstairs to my room and turned on my gameboy advanced sp, with the cart I got from the hut inside. After the menu, I felt a sudden electrical shock. IT HURT. I thought it was probably the carpeting's static. After that, the menu popped up, no "press start" menu. There was only one option, "new game" well, I clicked it. I was thinking this was gonna be a great hack! A white screen was up for 5 seconds when I felt a gust of wind that threw me off my bed. Oh my god creepy... I closed my sp so I can come back to it later, after I thought this through.
After a while of boredom and basketball, I opened up the screen... A shady character with strange marks on his head and no face was there instead of birch, hiding a bloody knife was there... "birch isn't here right now... Please come back later" after that I was at my house, no moving van, then my hands started having a burning sensation, I went to go wash them so I can relieve them when I fell down the stairs. For a split second I swear I thought I saw a very large bird with blue spikes around him. I was hallucinating. I was alone at home. I made it to the bathroom, I started washing my hands when I saw another large bird.it was red with some type of mowhawk golden hair. I had a unbeatable urge to play that game, I picked ot up and pressed on... In the game, I was in the character's room. I marched downstairs and his mom wasn't there. I walked outside. Complete chaos. I was in rustboro, the towers were destroyed. They were literally ripped in half. I ran around the place when a freezing breeze winded me while I was playing. I kept running. The tracks just never ended. When, I found all of the legendaries in one place.
Arceus was the one in front all of them. The stranger I saw at the start was there "you know, it's not good to steal." I shuddered. All the legendaries started using teleport and disappeared from the screen. The game boy was so over heated I dropped it in shock. I turned around and saw a no faced man faced my direction. He disappeared after I fainted.
I woke up to the sound of my mom yelling "wake up!". I woke up and the game boy was burnt to a crisp. I acted nonchalantly as my mom walked out. I stole my dad's hammer and smashed the remains of my game. From this day, I still have terrible nightmares and hallucinations of giant abnormal animals watching over me. I thought I was ok after 20 years, but that was when I was stabbed through my kidney. They still haven't found the person. I shall remain here in the hospital until my body gives out, or the pokemon come after me again to finish me off. After writing this documentary, I just need to tell you one thing and tha

I have a story much like the pokemon Black one

Back when i lived in Idaho I had a friend, his name was Brandon, we would always work on ideas for a pokemon game if we could ever create one. Then one day we discovered something amazing called emulators, we began our ideas by adding small areas to the map, like an extra room in the Pokemon Tower, or another stable on the moomoo farm. After we got moderatley good at making individual rooms or towns we began to create games. I began work on a game where you were an astronaut from mosdeep and had to go to the moon, while Brandon had an odder idea. Brandon's idea involved a plot where you would die in the pokemon world and be passed on as a ghost through the "dark world". This "dark world" would be filled with alternate lines of text, screwy graphic failure, and horrible wild pokemon. He began work on it in the summer of 2005 but died that winter of heart failure, at the funeral his mom told me that he wished to pass this rom on to me, it was my duty to finish it. But how could i tamper with what had been his in the "light world"? I knew he was watching me from the "dark world" so i cut out the parts he had made where you were alive and kept it how he had left it, unfinished. No alternate lines of text, or map changes are in here, i didn't add or remove anything except for the living parts. In fact, unless your a little curious this game is a huge disappointment.

If you want the rom PM me it's not that good as the story says, but if your bored it could be fun. It's just fire red with misplaced tiles, and alternate music at some parts.

I think that its a great story, But i'm guessing you wrote it solely for the competition no?
If i'm right i would re-write it because its got a great story line and has a good ending. It just seemed a bit rushed is all.

I don't really know what to say about your's "/
I'm not really sure what it is, is it real? because its very believable but its just not that disturbing, i know stories are starting to sway from creepy to upsetting but i think your moving a little bit to far away from creepy side.

[zappyspiker]

Just gonna put the Creppypasta from the competition here - Don't want them deleted when the Section goes away. If by any needs we don't finish judging before it's deleted I'll be VMing the winners and I'll post the results here

I always read about people finding games or some weird glitch happening that mentally or physically scared some random kid for life. But I always thought that they were just stories. That they were all just made up. Little did I know that I would be writing one of my own some day.
I guess I should start from the very beginning shall I.
I guess this all really started two years ago when I first met him. We didn’t really speak much until we both had a mutual friend. But the way I acted was like I’d known him for years. I don’t know if it was just him being manipulative or if it was just something about him but I would have done anything for him. And I guess I kind of did.
It was getting towards the end of our high school years and he was getting really behind on his coursework, I couldn’t just sit there and watch one of my best mates fail because we had a incompetent teacher. So I did what any good friend would do. I stayed behind for 2-3 hours every day, I stayed back 2-3 hours on top of the hour and a half bus ride I had on top of that. We were inseparable until the end of school. It was then when things went a little bit weird.
He began to call me out, it wasn’t unusual as we did used to meet up a bit outside of school but after a while he stopped showing up. Now usually I would think the worse because of my paranoid nature but the was he kept on calling me out help those thoughts at bay. But stupidly I obeyed and ended up being left to walk 10 miles home. I told him I was sick of him, nobody that has done as much as I had should be treated like that. This is things went from weird to creepy. Oh how I wish I had realised sooner.
This next bit I’m not too proud of. But I was sick of people always walking all over me! I started to spread rumours about him, sending malicious text messages and emails. After about a month every had heard about him. All his friends had heard there own deep dark secrets from someone else, which I had cleverly woven back to him. Even his family were paying the price as I’d, through the actions of his brother, persuaded them that he was in fact gay. Him being of the Muslim faith they didn't take it very well. However this turned out to be true so I guess it wasn't all bad. But on top of all that I completely ruined any chance of him making new friends because if the last rumour the secret, which had nothing to do with me, came out that he tried to kiss me. At that point in time though I was all for sticking to that rumour. I can safely say this completely ruined him. After that I never heard from him again, I think on some level he knew it was me. But I guess I’ll never know.
About two months had passed since then and I’d completely forget about him and what happened. I wouldn’t have connected it but it was now that I received a message from him. It was through facebook so I completely ignored its content and sent a message back. The message basically said that he should **** off and leave me alone like I told him to. Him being the annoying type I was expecting a message back, but after two whole days and no reply I decided to go and check out what it was that broke our silence.
The message. Nothing but a URL, not even a title. I was about to click delete when I noticed where the URL lead too. It was a URL to my own site, a URL to a part of the site I was not aware existed. The URL read http://6thfloor.cz.cc/zkhan.NDS. Go check that URL leads nowhere. The guy could barley use Microsoft word so there is no way he could hack a file into my server. So how is it when I clicked on it something happened...
The screen went white, the page was blank. I was expecting to get a 404 error and be done with it but boy was I shocked when a download started. It was a .NDS file.
By now I was thinking of the most obvious reasons of how this was happening. The most reasonable thing I could think of was that he had befriended someone with extraordinary hacking abilities and asked them to do a favour, Sound familiar?
I set the download to start and it downloaded fairly quickly when compared to the normal speed of my server. Once it had finished I plugged in my MicroSD card into my adapter and set it to copy so I could see what it was.
I booted up my flashcard and started the game, guess what I found? The name and the icon said that it was Pokémon Black! And it was in English! Could this be a random act of kindness from a once good friend? Or was it just a meaningless attempt to use up our limited server space? Either way I had an English version of Pokémon Black.
I booted up the game and got a black screen. Nothing unusual, just an antipiracy feature I though. I was a little disappointed that Nintendo hadn't been a little more creative like that Zelda Spirit Tracks game.
I put the game down and went to Google an antipiracy patch for the game and I literally jumped when the sound of the bells from the HGSS into chimed. I swiftly ran across the room to get my DS. I immediately saw that it wasn't Pokémon Black. The screen had gone from being completely black to a big white box being in the middle, The box had the word 'START' written in big black clock letters right in the middle of the box. It was obvious what the game wanted me to do so why not do it?
My jaw immediately hit the floor as my name flashed upon the screen. He must have met a really dedicated hacker if he can make something as advance as this.
After a goof few minutes of staring at my own name I came to the conclusion that I had to do something to make it progress. I pressed a but nothing happened. Mashing the other buttons I found out that the game progresses using only the B button. The game continued and text started to scroll up the touch screen. It wasn't much but it sent chills up my spine.
It read:

"David, I know that you were annoyed at what happened to you and that the main culprit was me but what you did to me was unacceptable. I know that it looked like I was messing with you but that was no excuse for someone to do what you did. And for this I hope you will pay. Because you went to far, too far David..."

An animation sequence started then. The camera was panning from left to right over the screen showing a messy bed room, the average bedroom of any teenage boy. A strange sensation of Déjà vu struck me as the camera stopped in the middle of the room. A silhouette appeared in the middle of the screen and once again my eyes almost lurched out of my head when I saw what it was.
It was a trainer sprite of him, the detail was amazing. It looked exactly like him from the odd shaped head to the exact thing he wore last time I saw him. The only fault I could see was that the picture seemed to be discoloured slightly just below his right eye running down his cheek.
Next thing I know was that the sprite began to shrink like it does in all Pokémon games and became an overworld sprite. Was this going to be like any other game?
Unfortunately the answer was no. as the sprite appeared in plan view of the previous image I mashed at the D-Pad but the small bundle of pixels ignored my commands. So I sat there wondering what could happen next.
A loud beeping noise was the next thing to play with my heightened tension. It was strange as I don't remember having my volume on but I was too scared to notice that at the time.
The sprite made a small shuffling animation and it had a small object in its hand. A text box popped up. It read:
"I'm here now. I swear if you leave me standing here on my won again I won't be responsible for what I might do!"
My heart sank as I reached for my phone. I opened my sent box and there it was. In plain black and white there were those exact words I had sent him.
The text box disappeared without me having to press anything so I quickly dropped my phone and paid attention to the game. A large sprite appeared on the screen. It was a mug shot sprite just like the ones that are used for the C-Gear in the game.
Slowly the face contorted into an expression full of worry and guilt. Slowly the screen faded to black.
A weird white mist was hovered around the edge of the screen and making it harder to see. A text box appeared just above this white smoke. It read:
"Several hours before"
We were now in a hallway. It was small and wasn't very cluttered like the last one. The same sprite came running up from out of the white fog and came to a sudden halt at what looked like a door. A new sprite text box appeared now but this one had something completely different in it.
It said:

میں باہر جا رہا ہوں اب چپ
This roughly translated to:
"I'm going out now mum"

I immediately pulled out my phone and began taking pictures of the text. I could send them to a friend who knew what this language was. If it was what I thought it was.
However while I was concentrating on the picture quality I seemed to have missed something and next time I looked at the screen there was another sprite on the screen. Yet another text box appeared this time from the other sprite.
This time it read:

آپ کی نہیں ، تمہارے پاس کام ارے نہیں کرنا
"Oh no your not, you've got work to do"

From this point onwards my camera flash could have given me a seizure because the next thing that happened on screen happened so fast I could barely keep up.

میں تجھ سے بیزار مجھے حکم کے ارد گرد ہوں
"I'm sick of you ordering me around"

کیا تم نے ابھی مجھ سے کیا کہا؟
What did you just say to me?

میں نے کہا... میں نے کہا کہ میں نے ہر وقت اپنے تمام کام کر کے تنگ آ گیا ہوں
"I said... I said I'm sick of doing all your work all the time"

Everything stopped.

The flow of the text seemed to seize., the fog around the screen seemed to pull back slightly in shock. The sprites seemed to stop breathing even though they weren’t breathing moving in the first place. The other mother sprite seemed to shuffle slightly only a pixel either side.
A pokéball appeared next to her. I know I shouldn’t be shocked by this but it didn’t seem in place in this game. The Pokéball opened revealing a Clefable next to the mother. His sprite stepped back in shock as a pokéball appeared next to him too. This one opened to release a Hitmonchan.
The screen distorted as it changed to the battle screen. But instead there weren’t any Pokémon trainers, nor was there any introduction text.
All it said was:
“Clefable used Double Slap”
Next the animation played and Hitmonchan’s health decreased.
Now came something I’ve never seen before. The trainer’s backsprite appeared and the camera span round.
The camera was now behind Clefable.
The camera zoomed into the trainer sprite and his eyes seemed to sink into the back of his head leaving behind only two anger filled red pupils.
The camera shot back to normal view behind Clefable as the Hitmonchan shook rapidly from side to side as if doing some sort of speed attack. Without any warning text a series of punch animations played whittling down the Clefable’s health bit by bit till it reached zero.
The screen went black.
No overworld.
Just black.

A loud beeping noise was the next thing to escape from this games the whole screen turned white. A block of text began to appear on screen.

“Just don’t speak to me anymore. Don’t text, don’t call, don’t inbox. I’m sick of it. After everything I did for you. This how it ends.”

The game went deathly silent. The white text screen faded away revealing the bedroom that I had previously seen. Only this time it seemed to be darker, almost monochrome but, Except for the untouched sprite of the creator. Another text box appeared.

“What have I done?
Why have I done this?
Why?
I’ve messed up.
Beyond Repair.
Nothing left for me.
Only one thing to do now.
The thing that you only barely escaped from
It’s going to get me”

My face froze. My hands constricted my DS stress marks stretched across it. The sprite walked across the room and stopped at a rough pokéball.
“Found Rope”
I now had tears streaming down my cheeks begging that he had made a slight error when he was typing. But as much as I pleaded with the game I didn’t get what I hoped for. The next text box read:
“Used Rope”
An image of his chest appeared on top of the overworld and slowly slid across the screen. It reached the edge of the screen and with a sharp snap the sprite shot down revealing a rope wrapped tightly around his neck.
The blood slowly trickled down his chin and soaked the rope as it became a deep red. The screen faded to black. I closed the lid on my screen. And I walked out the room.

The story you have read was based on a true story.
I have since been contacted by his older brother. He informed me that a note was found. I’ve been invited to the funeral by him, I guess I can finally put everything to rest now.

The Annoying Orange, Shinx, Houndour And Starly In The Tower Of Blood

One day, The Annoying Orange was sitting in the kitchen, when he heard a noise. It was a squeak at first, but it turned into a scream. "What was that?" The Annoying Orange stuttered, shivering in fright.
"Don't worry..." the scream, now a voice said, but in a normal tone.”My name is, well, I cannot tell my name, but I have a quest for you. Your quest is to go up the Tower Of Blood and get me a marshmallow called Steve, who is sitting on the steeple. But, you will need some bodyguards. I have arranged for a Shinx and a Houndour to meet you at the base of the tower. Well, off you go!" the voice continued.
But, there was no way to get all the way to the Tower Of Blood. Or was there...? The Annoying Orange rolled about on the grass outside, and waited. Soon, a Starly picked up the Annoying Orange.
"Starly, could you take me to the Tower Of Blood?" The Annoying Orange asked the Starly.
"Of course," the Starly said, in English.
"Did you really just speak English?" Orange said to the Starly.
"Well duh, didn't you just hear me?" replied the Starly.
'This Starly could speak human language! Freaky or what!' thought Orange.
Soon, they arrived at the Tower Of Blood. It was near Sanyou City. Just like the voice had said, there was a Shinx and a Houndour at the gate.
"Thanks a lot for the ride, Starly! Me and my bodyguards should be going inside now," Orange said to Starly.
"You're welcome, but please may I come with you?" replied Starly.
"OK! I need as much help as I can get!" Orange replied.
They began the trek up the dark, tall, cold Tower Of Blood.
"This is taller than I thought. And where did it get it's name?" said Houndour.
A Koromori sliced Houndour's nose with it's wing, causing blood to leak out!
"Does that answer your question?" replied Shinx, before getting sliced on her nose, too.
"Well, I've got a gun," Orange boldly said, before shooting down all of the, now bloodstained, nearby Koromori. Then, the team continued their quest to the top. Just as they were about to climb the first set of steps of four, yet another Koromori sliced Starly's wing, causing lots of blood to leak out.
"I can't fly anymore!" wailed Starly.
Houndour and Shinx carried Starly up the first set of steps, followed by Orange. Houndour and Shinx continued to carry Starly, while getting sliced by endless Koromori. When the team reached the second set of steps, they had a fair bit of blood on them. They climbed up the steps, with a fair bit of blood on them.
When they entered the third floor, a Misdreavus used Perish Song. Shinx, Houndour and Orange ran as fast as they could to the next set of steps. Along the way, Starly died. Shinx, Houndour and Orange were depressed at this outcome,but they continued to travel. By the time they climbed the third set of steps, they were completely bloodstained. They had escaped the Perish Song by the skin of their teeth, but they were covered in dark red blood. The third set of steps creepily warped them to the steeple. There was no place for the bloodstained team of three to gain balance, but Orange grabbed the marshmallow, who was called Steve, sitting there. Then, they creepily teleported back to Orange's home. Then, a Zoroa snatched Steve off Orange and ran away.
"Oh No!" the voice said,"Go get Steve back!"
Just before Zoroa was out of sight, Orange shot Zoroa and Shinx ran off to get Steve back.
The voice revealed itself to be a...Pikachu that spoke English! Orange handed Steve to the Pikachu, who used it's tail to cut Steve into many tiny pieces.
"We went to the top of the Tower Of Blood to retrieve a marshmallow, watching the death of a friend and risking our lifes along the way, just for you to cut it up?!?!" Orange, Shinx and Houndour angrily boomed.
"Well, I just hate marshmallows called Steve, and I wanna destroy them all!" came the Pikachu's angry reply.

Team Fail
Red's Revenge

A year or so ago, when Pokemon Heart Gold was only out in the Eastern Countries (You know, Japan... Korea...) I wanted a copy. On Christmas Eve, I won a bid on Ebay for a Japanese copy of the game. I waited in the mail for it to arrive, and missed the Enigma Stone event. Oh well. I opened the box as soon as I got it, and began playing. It was the game I couldn't put down. I played it constantly- Pokewalker and all. I had it at school, the market, roadtrips, you name it, I had it.
It was in Feburary that I was playing my beloved game one fine afternoon. I had finally reached Mt. Silver. I found my way to the top to challenge Red. I was sure my Lv. 97 Typhlosion and Lv. 95 Kyogre could beat him. Everyone else were HM slaves. :P Anyways, when I reached the snowy summit of the mountain, HE WASN'T THERE!!! I was bewildered. I knew he was there for the first time you get there to face him. So, I shrugged it off.probably a programming error. I kept playing and made my Team even stonger. I then decided to go to mom to get some money for the stat-boosting items (Carbos...). I went to the house. Instead of what I normally see, Mom sitting at the table, she was on a chair beside Red. He was holding a pistol. I knew there was no turning back now. He walked up to me slowly, and commanded me to let all of my Pokemon out of their Pokeballs. I did so, without a Yes/No question. They then followed him to where my mother was. He then started a speech:
"So... YOU... You are the reason I cannot win. I have trained MY WHOLE LIFE for this, and you go and wipe them with your pathetic Pokemon. Pfft. Such a pathetic Trainer." He then raised the pistol and shot Typhlosion. It was graphic. He then continued, "I have been a trainer ever since I was 11. I wanted to face the Pokemon League, but YOU. You simply waltz in and beat them ALL. Without breaking a sweat, Even Proffesor Oak acknowledged you and wanted to interview you on his radio show!" He raised the pistol again. He shot Kyogre. Then, my HM slave, Gyrados was next to take a bullet. He then turned to my mother. "I have thought this out for a long time. Many weeks in the days you have become a new household name. I have decided on this for so long and so much, my mind hurts. I'm glad I don't have to think of this anymore." It was getting hard to watch at this point. "And now, I can deal with my problems. Hehehe..." He then shot my mother. It was as graphic, if not more, than the Pokemon. The game then went to a cutscene. Red held the rifle up to my player's head. "This was the cause of all my problems, and now, I have a solution. Enjoy this, you will never see the light of day again. Goodbye." As Red pulled the trigger, the screen went black. You heard a gunshot, then a thud on the floor. It then said, "You are dead. Erasing game..." I let it do that. After it did, I took a hammer to it and broke it into a bunch of pieces. I then flushed it down the toilet. I will never buy from Ebay again.

Today' Adventure (PMD Adventrure)


After reading up all those creepy stories about Pokemon on the internet, I’ve decided to hunt down fake cartridges and see if any of them are “creepy” and hacked. I came across a curious Pokémon Mystery Dungeon : Explorers of Darkness copy, which looked obviously fake. Taking the opportunity, I clicked Buy. It was only 5$ ; very eBay like.

The next day, it arrived in mail. It was wrapped in black paper, which is weird, since I ordered many games from the internet and they were all in another color. Even weirder, it was only the cartridge, without the game’s pack.

It took me a while to boot it up, since my DS wouldn’t load it. When it finally began, I was astonished.

The old intro wasn’t there and I got skipped to a cut scene. It was a human, Ranger-like, surrounded by three Pokémon. They were a Wigglytuff, Chatot and Skuntank. They were actually talking to that human, which I assumed was me. The eerie background (the one from the dreams in PMD 1) had a purple background color and moved really slow. The three Pokémon said :

“Skuntank: Maybe… should I take him into my team?
Wigglytuff : NO ! He’s only mine. You have absolutely no right to take him.
Chatot : Master, please, stop arguing with your best fr…
Skuntank : WE’RE NOT FRIENDS AT ALL ! Take this, fluffy loser.”

Skuntank threw a weird ball which made a smokescreen animation, then the screen turned white and warped to the guild. It was when I first stepped on the grid from above the guild. Then, it started a lot of talking (by the way, it was a Bulbasaur there…) :

“What ?
I’m remembering something about me ! I remember being surrounded by three Pokémon…
It feels like a dream, though. It doesn’t seem real… at all.
One of them… he’s a Wigglytuff !
One is a flying type… and the other one…
………………………………..I can’t figure it out.”

It got me thinking if it was backstory on how I turned into a human. At this point, I knew it was one of those hack made by a poorfag with no life. But, I decided to push on…

It continued normally, and I quite enjoyed playing through my favorite PMD game. What entirely bugged me was that every time I beat Pokémon, they would never join me. At first I thought the RNG was just messing around, but arriving at the expedition chapter without a Pokémon in my team was absolutely odd.

Then, at the scene where Wigglytuff beats Skuntank and his sidekicks, I get pushed in there as well…

Skuntank tells me I am a human and I was turned into one just for the poor amusement of Wigglytuff and Chatot. They no longer knew who I was because of Skuntank erasing their memory. He was the only one who still knew something about me and my past. He then took me into a portal, and I warped in an 8-bit Goldenrod !

A woman came out of the Gym. She appeared to be an older Whitney. Skuntank was claiming she was my mother, who lost me. She wanted me to return, but there was no way to do so. He also told me normal Pokémon could sense I was a human, so they never came close to me. Only my partner was behaving normally…

From that place until the Dialga chapter, it all ran smoothly, except for the bugging thing about getting Pokémon. Then, right after I scored a win on Dialga, I got warped into that 8-bit Goldenrod again…

This time, Whitney was at a funeral. The main street of Goldenrod was occupied by it. Hundreds of people were moving slowly and singing weird songs about me and my life. Then, from the coffin they were carrying, there rose a big ghost of me…

“This, my friend, is the future.” He said. “Take your pick : live, or die.”

Then, the Yes/No window appeared, but with Live/Die instead. I picked Die, thinking I would get to play more adventures. Then, a long hand rose from the DS and grabbed me of my neck. It started shaking, and I started feeling an acute burn across my whole body. I punched my DS Lite with all my power and the mysterious, undead and white hand vanished. Seconds later, I was destroying the cartridge with the biggest hammer my dad owns. I took the rests and threw them on the window.

My DS Lite got a cracked screen and everytime I open it, a white hand appears on the screen and the following words come out of the DS’s speakers : “Only a little bit more time until you’ll be mine… just waiting for you to die… if you picked that…”.

I get scared, but I keep repeating in my mind : “It’s just a game.”.

Really ? Is it just a game ?

I never thought much on the PMD backstory, but now I don’t want to do this so much as I used to. Mostly because I get scared easily, but sometimes it’s also because my experience...

Mines of Oreburgh

It was bright and sunny that day, in true sense, it was unusually sunny. But that didn’t affect Ash and his faithful companion Pikachu, who were travelling alone in the Sinnoh. The emptiness was killing them from the inside, the reason being that Brock and Dawn were both missing as his fellow companions. The very thought of that incident makes them shiver even now, ten months after what had happened in the abandoned coal mines of Oreburgh....

It was yet another normal day for Ash, Dawn and Brock who were walking enthusiastically towards the Oreburg gym in anticipation for Ash’s first gym battle in Sinnoh. But disappointment met Ash as he entered the gym. “Roark isn’t here, young trainer!” said the old man sitting in the corner of the gym. He wore a black cloak which added to his strange appearance. There was an unusual and mysterious glow on his face. But Ash took no notice of it. “Where is he?” “At the Oreburgh coal mines!”, the old man replied with a small, wicked smile, which spoke a lot more than it seems to a person at the first thought. Without a second thought, Ash ran out of the gym at a speed which even Pikachu found hard to catch up with. “Wait for us, Ash!!” said Dawn and both of them paced out as well. The old man gave out an evil laughter, “Three kids and some Pokemon.... Cute little victims we’ve got today!”

Night was approaching; it had begun to drizzle as well. An unsuspecting Ash rushed into the mysterious and ghastly coal mines of Oreburgh. Dawn, Brock and Pikachu finally caught up with Ash, panting hard. “Why on earth did you run like that Ash!?”, came the words from Brock. “I just want to meet Roark and have a gym battle with him!” “I know that you are excited Ash, but please don’t do something like that again”, said Dawn. “Alright, I won’t!” “Let’s go find Roark now!”

As they went a little deeper into the mines, eerie sounds, like the shrieking of some lost soul, could be heard louder and louder. “This is a little weird. Am I imaging this or can I really see shadows in the distance?”, said Dawn. “There are some people out there!”, came a voice from the distance. Soon, they could see two figures running towards them. “Who are you guys?”, asked Ash. We just work over here as miners”, said one of them, the expression of fear was quite evident on their very faces. “You guys look tensed. Is everything alright? And where is Roark?, inquired Ash. “Hey kids.. let me advice you all, don’t go any further.” “But why?”, asked Brock. “I’m sure you guys won’t believe me”, said the miner, “But we can assure you that there is something terribly wrong out there.” Ash paid no heed to what they said, “I must go find Roark! I want my gym badge!” “Go on...”, said the miner. “I’ve done my job; I warned you” as Ash and his friends disappeared into the darkness.
Back in Oreburgh city, Officer Jenny and the other police officials storm into the city. Officer Jenny rams the door of the gym to find the old man still sitting there. “Who are you!?” enquired Officer Jenny. The old man didn’t speak a word. “Who are you and where is Roark?!” The old man raised his head and smiled. Then suddenly, within a fraction of a second, he ran at the speed of light out of the gym. As the bewildered officials stormed the gym they discovered a body, chopped beyond recognition. Blood flowed like a river from the gym.

“What on earth happened here?”, came the words from Brock who watched with terror the hundred of human bones and skulls which lay before them. “I’m scared now Ash”, said Dawn, we should get out of here!” “You are right, lets head back!”, came the timid reply from Ash. “Pika! Pi-Pikachu!!”, came the terrified sound from Pikachu. “What happened?” “Oh my God! What the hell is that?!” “Oh, it’s just the old man from the gym.”, said Brock. “I can honestly say that I’m glad to see you”, said Ash. “There is something terribly wro--“ Suddenly the old man drew his sword and charged towards them. “Pikachu!! Use thunderbolt, now!” It was too late; the old man struck his sword right into Brock’s abdomen. “Arrrrrggghh!!”, came a cry from Brock who fell on the ground, blood flowed... “Brock!!!”, came the shriek from both Ash and Dawn. But soon enough, they heard the loud footsteps of someone running towards them. The old man, alerted by this noise, stepped back in a defensive position. It was Sir Aaron! He held the old man by his throat, and banged his head against the walls of the cave. “Tell me!! Why are you here, Oak?”, asked Sir Aaron with all brutality. “Professor Oak?! How can this be?”, asked a bewildered Ash. “This isn’t time for old tales kid.”, said Sir Aaron. “Go! Celebi! Heal the wounds of the young man!” “Not so fast, Aaron!”,said Oak as broke free and attempted to charge with his sword. Both of them engaged in a duel. Sir Aaron chopped off Oak’s head. Brock too was healed to perfection by now, thanks to Celebi. “Is it over now?”, asked Dawn shivering with fear. “He was just a messenger... I’m afraid that this is just the beginning....”, said Sir Aaron.“But I want to end this right now!, he said as he marched ahead into the darkness. “We should get out of here before something happens again”, said Dawn. “Go two can go, but I’m going to help Sir Aaron out there!” But before Dawn could reply, Ash had also disappeared into the darkness. “God save him...”, said Brock who looked quite pale himself.

“Foolish little kid... Why do you want to get yourself killed?”, asked Sir Aaron. “I want to help you!”, said Ash. “Look out!!” A group of Gengars encircled them. They soon heard a conversation in the near distance... “Oh look who we’ve got. Sir Aaron and some kid...”came a voice. “That kid is the chosen one, sir.” “Ahh! Very well! We get to kill the both of them at one go!” A tall figure appeared in front of them. “I heard you killed my trusted servant, Oak.. Is it true? Well, you must have, Aaron; quite amusing though..” Sir Aaron charged towards him which the mysterious figure evaded with ease. “How amusing.. You have the nerve to do that?” “Do not underestimate me N!” said Sir Aaron leaping towards N for another failed attempt to strike. With a change of positions, Sir Aaron soon found his neck at the edge of N’s sword. Suddenly an explosion took place and Ranger X’s Kadabras stormed the place, effectively blocking N’s Gengars moves and knocking them out. “You, Ranger boy! Trying to be a hero? Take him into custody, guards!” Talking advantage of situation, Sir Aaron chopped off N’s head. But to everyone’s astonishment, N’s head began regenerating! “You can’t really think of killing homunculus, can you? I would have been glad to kill off this very moment, but an old friend of yours wants to do the honours...!” Meet Oak or Professor Oak!” “This can’t possibly be true!”, exclaimed Sir Aaron “I just killed him a while ago!” “I think you are smart enough to figure that out, Aaron. And enough with this blabber! Finish him off Oak! We will take care of this kid and the ranger later!” With his lightning fast speed, Oak finished off Sir Aaron. All that left was a puddle of blood with flesh and bones in the middle.

“Not so fast, N!” came the voice from the background. It was Dawn and Brock. “Seems like we’ve got some visitors! Show them how we treat our guests!” Next it was Brock and Dawn’s turn...Both if them suffered the same fate. Ash saw them bleed to death. Ranger X somehow escaped, and dragged Ash along. It was quite evident that they wouldn’t have been able to get out from there if they didn’t take advantage of the situation, with N’s huge zombie army near. “We got to get out of here quickly”, said Ranger X. “I can’t possibly leave without my friends behind!”, remarked Ash, quite astonished with what he heard. “Sometimes you care about yourself kid, and leave others to their fate” Ranger X commanded his Onix to block the entrance to the mine, burying all those inside.

And today as Ash sights the Victory Road in the distance, memories of the past come back to him. He can’t help but blame himself for what happened in the mines of Oreburgh.



Rucario
Goldenrod Silence

I had been a fan of Pokemon since the beginning, but none of them kept me occupied for long. I had played Red for so long and I had a Charizard that was a level 46, and then after I had lost to the Champion Blue and forgot to save, I threw my game to the ground and sobbed for months. Once I got over it, Gold and Silver had been released. I had read stories of people getting pirated Pokemon games or hacked Gameboy cartridges such as Pokemon Diamond for the Gameboy Color. I had never heard of them as a child, but when I got older, the stories began popping up very frequently. The stories were amazing and opened up more possibilities to me, good and bad. I had received games from my friends that were pirated that they had bought on Ebay, but I had never tested them. One day my friend, Michael, had handed me a DS cartridge that had a white label sticker in the place of where the logo might have been that said "Pkmn SoulSvr" in black Sharpie Marker. He had approached me after handing it to me and said in a strong voice that sounded as if he was holding back tears.

"You can't... can't.. can't defeat me...."

I laughed in his face and walked back to my house from his. It seemed as if it were a big joke. Michael was notorious for playing practical jokes on people. This was just another one. When I got back to my home, everything was normal; my mother in the kitchen cooking dinner, father in the den watching the news program, and my 16 year old brother on the floor in his room playing Xbox. I walked upstairs to my room where my DS was. I popped the game in and watched the opening screen. It was normal: Lugia soaring underwater as the logo pops up. I clicked the name that read "me" in lowercase letters. I laughed at it. Michael was doing a pretty good job so far. When I opened it up, I was standing in Goldenrod City with a Blastoise at my side. I checked the Pokemon tab and saw that Blastoise was the only Pokemon on the team. The Blastoise's name was Warturtle and it was a female, which is uncommon. It's rare to ever find a female Squirtle, so this one was rare. Everything seemed normal so far. I walked into the Pokemon Center, which wasn't normal. It was dark and the only light was the light above the nurse and it flickered. I walked over to the nurse to see what she would say. A small icon appeared on the screen of the nurse with an angry expression on her face and the little speech bubble popped at the bottom that was representing what the Nurse was saying.

"What do you want? Your Pokemon is already at full health! Get out of this building!"

When I pressed "A" to get out of it, I appeared in a mirrored Goldenrod City. It was dark out now, but my clock was accurate and it was still day time. It appeared that it was night time, but the trainer's characters were different and had a scared, bleak expression on their face. I walked over to one of the many trainers and pressed the "A" button. The trainer turned and an exclamation point appeared above their head.

"Get.. get out... now! He's coming... he's coming for your Pokemon... he's here for all of us...... go......."

I laughed at this and went to the Goldenrod City Gym where I was waiting for Whitney to tell me to get out as well. When I walked in, I saw a man that had a taller sprite than everyone else and he seemed to have been arguing with Whitney. I automatically walk closer to the arguing trainers.

"I am here for you.... Tell me where he is.." the tall man said in a somewhat desperate voice.

"It doesn't matter, because I'm not going down without a fight." Whitney said with a Pokeball in her hand. She sounded frantic and panicked, but I couldn't blame her. I tried to exit the gym, but I was unable too.

An icon like the nurse's appeared on the screen, but this one was the man. A large mask was over his face and he had a Pokeball in his hand. The music changed from the normal Goldenrod music to the music from Lavender Town and the speechbox appeared at the bottom once again.

"... You can't defeat me...." The man said.

There was something about him that was familiar. The man tossed a Pokeball and a Haunter appeared. It reminded me of the Haunter I had on my team at the time of my loss to the Champion. The Haunter wrapped around Whitney and her sprite fell to the ground face-first. The man turned around and knocked my character to the ground. When I walked back out to Goldenrod City, the Lavender Town music was still playing and people were running frantically around the city. The man was now with a Charizard and had burnt down several buildings. A large amount of rubble from a destroyed building had sat at the left side of my screen and I had noticed that there were piles of trainers that were laying down in a pile. Children as well. The sprites of Lyra and Whitney were in a separate Pile. I was now afraid and regretted laughing at Michael. I quickly pulled the button that would turn the DS off, but it didn't work. I panicked and threw my DS against the wall, but it was still working. I was beginning to panic and I just had to go along with it. The Champion Blue appeared with his Rhydon to try and stop the madness that the man had caused. The Charizard became enraged and shot flames from his mouth at Rhydon and then used Slash on him it seemed. Blood leaked from the side of Rhydon as it fell to the ground. An exclamation point appeared about Blue's head as he was being pinned to the ground by Charizard. Charizard used a strong fire attack on Blue, killing him. It was now clear to me now on who it was: it was my character from my Red game. Blue's body was now on the ground, dead. The same could be said about his Rhydon. The man had walked over to my character and stood for a while. The speechbox at the bottom appeared and only said a few words that brought tears of fear and sorrow over me.

".... I'm sorry....."

I pressed "A" as he ordered his Charizard to kill him. It fired uncertain blasts of flames from its mouth that sent him to the ground. The Pokemon flew off and was never seen again. I sat there for a while as the city burnt down to the ground. I sat there for quite some time. The direction pad didn't work for some reason. The screen slowly faded to black as the normal credits appeared on the screen. I then took the game out of my DS and slipped it into my pocket. I walked down the stairs, the world still the same it should be. When I exited my house, I walked to my shed and got a hammer and went out into the street with tears streaking down my face. It was hard, because I know that my character from Red was the same character that I had so much fun with in my youth, but it was the right thing to do. I walked to the street and set the hammer down on the cartridge with all of my might and destroyed it. I then did the same with all of my other pirated and hacked games so that others don't have to find the same games and experience the terrible things that I went through in the first time I flicked the game in.

Flame

I was a big pokemon lover. I collected almost every Pokemon game. When mom did take me to the flea market, i saw weird Pokemon game for GBA. It was all green and has written on the sticker - Pokemon Chaos Emerald. I was thinking that it is some hack that was based on Sonic... But i wanted to see how this is made. When we came back to the home, i started to play this right away. It has another title screen than original Emerald. There was Rayquaza, Groudon and Kyogre. Rayquaza looked like it is being already killed and Groudon and Kyogre have got pale skin and scary red eyes. I did continue. There was no save file, so i started New Game. Everyone seems to be normal, but the Azurill that Birch take out from the Pokeball, looked like it's bones! Bones were full in blood... It was a little strange to me, but i didn't got freaked out. And there was not gender choosing, it was another thing that was weird to me. Ok, the ol' shaking truck animation... But there was no boxes... There was... Coffins! Pretty creepy, yeah. And when i got out the "truck" i didn't been in Littleroot. I was in Mt. Pyre. There was alot people and the old woman came to me and tell...
"We're doomed! We cannot escape the Groudon and Kyogre's wrath! Only death awaits us."
When i came to the place where should be orbs. They were put in but the Emerald Orb was totally crushed. There was blood coming from it... Then the old man came to me and told me that our only hope, Rayquaza was killed. Then the egg hatching animation was on... The "egg" hatched into Bad EGG... The game got freezed. I was about to turn it off, but then the Mt. Pyre turned into Giygas from Earthbound! I couldn't control my character. It was slowly coming to the monsters. Then the Trainer Card automatically showed up. It was showing Brendan with bleeding eyes and mouth. Then the 8-bit Lavender Tower started playing. Everyone has got pale skin. I was thinking they changed into zombies... Then automatically battle against a trainer who got left hand blue, right hand red and green head sent out Groudon. I've got only Bag EGG so i sent it out. There was only one option. Run. When i choosed it, the textbox said that Bad EGG was loafing around... I was laughing to it. Then chosed it again and the textbox said...
"Bad EGG started hatching!"
It was weird... When i pressed A, it showed the Substitue monster, that knew only OHKO moves. It was "Fissure, Sheer Cold and Guillnote". I used Sheer Cold and defeated Groudon. The screen goes black and i hear the slowed down Rayquaza cry. It SERIOUSLY freaked me out, but i wanted to see what happens next. Background changed into volcano like place and the trainer got horns... It was hell. Trainer send out Kyogre, but it fainted without a fight.... There was no "Foe's GROUDON fainted!". Instead of "fainted" it meant "dies"... Then the trainer did got wings and devil tail... It was a Devil... He send out the third Pokemon. Rayquaza. It was all covered in blood. The textbox said...
"This POKEMON doesn't want to fight!"
So i just tried to use Sheer Cold... But it missed! There was another textbox...
"Show me your rage, my tool of destruction!"
It was a little sad... Rayquaza used Frustration that missed, then used Outrage that almost defeated my "Pokemon". There was 1 HP left. The textbox said again...
"You're useless! Die!"
The Rayquaza started losing HP, and after every hit, i heard Rayquaza cry... In every hit it has got lower pitch, then Rayquaza's HP got to 0... But it didn't faintend. Textbox said...
"Rayquaza used Tears!"
The screen goes black... And there was dialogue...
"Brendan is trapped in the hell!
The world is destroyed.
There's no hope.
We're... doomed."
Then the game showed Rayquaza sprite. Speechbox said - "Rayquaza used Perish Song!" Then the glitchy sound started to play... Then the 8-bit Mt. Pyre theme started to play for 1 minute...
The game turned off itself. It didn't wanted to turn on again... I did take my dad's hammer and i did go to the street. I destroyed it and threw off to the trash can... I dediced to not buy the hacked games again...

When i first played Pokemon, i played Emerald.
I started out with Torchic, wich turned out to be shiny! Never did i know until i discovered Serebii and looking at Blaziken's shiny sprite, asking around its forum. I charged through the game like a madman, being the idiot i was, having Blaziken at Level 100, with a few HM slaves at 20, and DESTROYED the league and BF.

A long time ago i transferred my Blaziken to SoulSilver, raping Kanto with it, then Red. After transferring, i lost my copy, but i never thought much of it. Until a week ago, when i found it. I booted it up, but i never thought this could be true.

I chose my save, and ended up before Wallace, i talked to him.
"Did you come back? You abadonned us, and now you just 'want to check it out again'? How pathetic. Time to die." He said, i shat my pants.
My party was only a Shiny Blaziken, the same one started out with, it seemed, level hundred. His Party? Level 100 Arceus-Water. "How? What? It's Gen III!" i thought. It used Judgement once, and Blaziken fainted.
My screen went black, and it said:
"Choose." A Yes/No option appeared, but with Blaziken/Arceus.
I did not know what this ment, but i chose Blaziken, thinking it was who will win the match. I was wrong. A voice said to me "Always relying on Blaziken. Always. Always...." I blacked out, and heard Blaziken's cry (talk about Blaziken Fanboyism).

I woke up, and it was all a dream.

THE END.

Hallucinations

ahhhh, another Saturday! Going home hanging out with friends... We decided to go to the mall when we saw, we saw a new shop. It was like a hut, all purple and had a golden rope tied around it. We decided to walk inside, however my friends decided not to. I went inside and it was all pokemon dolls! I looked around and saw a pokemon emerald cart, however there was duct tape around the front sticker and on the sticker it wrote "Pokemon Legends" it was written in pen and was very sloppy.
I got home and my house had a small shake, like a mini earthquake, I asked my mom if she just felt that, she said I was crazy. I decided I was just tired... I went upstairs to my room and turned on my gameboy advanced sp, with the cart I got from the hut inside. After the menu, I felt a sudden electrical shock. IT HURT. I thought it was probably the carpeting's static. After that, the menu popped up, no "press start" menu. There was only one option, "new game" well, I clicked it. I was thinking this was gonna be a great hack! A white screen was up for 5 seconds when I felt a gust of wind that threw me off my bed. Oh my god creepy... I closed my sp so I can come back to it later, after I thought this through.
After a while of boredom and basketball, I opened up the screen... A shady character with strange marks on his face and no face was there instead of birch, hiding a bloody knife was there... "birch isn't here right now... Please come back later" after that I was at my house, no moving van, then my hands started having a burning sensation, I went to go wash them so I can relieve them when I fell down the stairs. For a split second I swear I thought I saw a very large bird with blue spikes around him. I was hallucinating. I was alone at home. I made it to the bathroom, I started washing my hands when I saw another large bird.it was red with some type of mowhawk golden hair. I had a unbeatable urge to play that game, I picked ot up and pressed on... In the game, I was in the character's room. I marched downstairs and his mom wasn't there. I walked outside. Complete chaos. I was in rustboro, the towers were destroyed. They were literally ripped in half. I ran around the place when a freezing breeze winded me while I was playing. I kept running. The tracks just never ended. When, I found all of the legendaries in one place.
Arceus was the one in front all of them. The stranger I saw at the start was there "you know, it's not good to steal." I shuddered. All the legendaries started using teleport and disappeared from the screen. The game boy was so over heated I dropped it in shock. I turned around and saw a no faced man faced my direction. He disappeared after I fainted.
I woke up to the sound of my mom yelling "wake up!". I woke up and the game boy was burnt to a crisp. I acted nonchalantly as my mom walked out. I stole my dad's hammer and smashed the remains of my game. From this day, I still have terrible nightmares and hallucinations of giant abnormal animals watching over me. I thought I was ok after 20 years, but that was when I was stabbed through my kidney. They still haven't found the person. I shall remain here in the hospital until my body gives out, or the pokemon come after me again to finish me off. After writing this documentary, I just need to tell you one thing and tha

Monkey God Shrine



Game developers are a mischievous bunch. They’ll often put hidden easter eggs or pranks into their games, just because they can.

Someone presumably got fired over this one.

This only happens in Japanese copies of Black and White. Well, alright, English ones haven’t been made yet, but somebody’s bound to take it out before they’re released, otherwise there could well be quite a lot of traumatised children.

Take a party of four to the Site of Dreams, and put Musharna in the first slot. Mine was called STEVE, but I think any name starting with S will work. Make sure the other three have initials that spell out A-R-U in that order. S-A-R-U, "monkey", you see?
Now, this next part might get a bit tricky, because you have to know Cut and not have any elemental monkeys. The grinding will take a while. Once you have the Tri Badge and the HM, go back to the Site and start poking around. Might need to employ a walk-through-walls cheat, I couldn’t get where I needed to go without it. Don’t talk to the monkey girl. She’ll come up to you when you find the right spot. The girl will speak to you in Japanese. I dunno, I never translated it, but there’s bound to be some otaku out there who has. Whatever.

She’ll lead you into a part of the Site of Dreams that I’m fairly certain nobody was, strictly speaking, meant to access. Reason being that it looks, well, kinda sinister, to be honest. There’ll be a set of stairs leading down into the ground, and statues of the monkeys on the three non-accessible sides. (Incidentally, I tried getting to the stairs with walk-through-walls, but no luck. It has to be the girl who brings you here.)

Go down the stairs. It seems like a choice, but the girl will take you down anyway. Scripted event, I think. You’ll be in a large stone hall, lit by torches. Creepy place. The location card will say “Sarugami Jinja”, which I’m fairly certain means “Monkey God Shrine”. She’ll lead you forward and ask you another question in Japanese, presumably “Do you want to continue?” Answer no and you’ll black out and wake up in the Sanyou Pokémon Center. The game will be normal after that, but the event won’t be triggered again.
Answer yes and she’ll lead you to the end of the room. There’ll be a huge statue of a monkey there. It’ll be the most hideous monkey you’ve ever seen, a hulking, monstrous thing, and under it will be a seven-figure stone counter. It might tick down while you’re watching it. If it does, someone else has done what you’re about to do. No idea how they did that – it even happens if you’re nowhere near wi-fi.
Anyway. The girl will go forward and let out her three monkeys onto three stone pedestals in front of the monkey statue. Then the three Gym Leaders will come in. Dent, Pod and Corn, that’s their names. They’ll each say something in Japanese, then let out the evolved forms of their monkeys.

Now that I think of it, this whole thing seems a lot like a cult.

The monkeys will start dancing on their pedestals. A weird, twirly jumpy sort of dance. I can’t really describe it here, my brain goes all wobbly when I try to remember what it looked like. When they’re done, the whole room will tremble. Bits will fall from the ceiling. The music will escalate, growing high-pitched and annoying. Orange light will flash across the screen.
The monkey statue will turn from grey to silver. As you watch, the music will suddenly stop entirely, and the statue will let out a screech and leap upwards through the ceiling, leaving behind you, the leaders, the girl and the other monkeys. As you watch, they’ll turn to stone, and the counter will tick down by one. When I last tried it, it was at 641,592.
After that, the game will play relatively normally. There’ll be a few differences, though – for one thing, everyone in Sanyou City will be dead, as if torn apart by a ravenous beast. You'll never find any elemental monkeys in the wild. In addition, you’ll occasionally see the mutilated corpses of Trainers you were meant to face, with a silver blur escaping off to the side. Makes grinding hell, let me tell you, though at least it’s never Gym Leaders.
In fact, when I looked it up, it seemed like all the dead Trainers were ones with their own elemental monkeys. Like the Monkey God was taking his revenge on those who enslaved his servants. At least that’s my theory.

On the surface of it, it seems like just a nasty little prank by some game developer. But it does make you wonder. How does that counter know how many times the Monkey God has been awakened? And what happens when it reaches zero? What will the Monkey God do then?

And what of all those players who don’t bother with the easter egg – who just accept the girl’s generous “gift” of an elemental monkey, and go merrily on their way…?

The Best


I was good, yes. I was the very best, no doubt. Well, at least, that’s what I liked to think I was. No, no, let me finish. Excuse my pompous behaviour; I don’t get to brag too often. Where was I? Oh yes, how marvellous I was, was it? I’m going to assume that that gesture means yes. Anyway, like every other Pokémon trainer in the world, I once aspired to reach the Pokémon League. The only difference between me and the rest of those wannabes was that I was the best. Have I said that? Sorry. I’ll continue, and I’ll try not to deviate too much. Time is precious, no? Ahem, to reach the Pokémon League, battle the elite four, and subsequently defeat the reigning champion was a dream shared by many trainers, young and old. Of course, reaching the League, requiring months of journeying and gym- battling in the process, was no easy task. Beating the elite four, even harder. And the champion? Well, count for yourself how many champions there’ve been in the past hundred years since the league was established. Am I going off on a tangent? By that look you’re giving me, I think I am. I’ll try to condense it.

So to get to the top, there was one sure fire way to victory. That is to say Pokémon training. Yes, training. Did you think I was going to tell you an easy way to get there? It’s all hard work my boy. Hard work, blood, and guts. Blood especially, if I might add. Even I myself, a sprightly young trainer back in the day, trained excessively to be the very best. Sure my methods were a tad, how shall we say, unorthodox, but I got there in the end didn’t I? Sacrifice was essential and there was to be full dedication towards my goal. Dedication, of course, is not a word to be treated lightly. I still remember the first loss of my campaign towards victory. It was my starter. And no, it wasn’t one of those rare starters you kids get nowadays from those research labs. We got our Pokémon the old fashion way. We went out and caught them ourselves, trained and reared them by hand. My starter, for one, was a simple Ralts. Yes, she was my Ralts, my first ever Pokémon. My first ever, true friend. Sadly, however, she was also my first ever loss. By the time she left me, she wasn’t a Ralts anymore of course. She was a fully-grown, beautiful Gardevoir.

I still remember the look on her face as she passed on. The nurse told me that fatigue had pushed her over the edge. Fatigue and the rough training regime I had created. But how was I to know? She had never complained. Yes, I know Pokémon can’t talk, but ours was a bond like no other. I could practically tell when she was hungry, when she was tired, and when she felt down. That’s why it was odd when one day, during our practice session following a particularly violent battle, she just up and collapsed in the middle of the field. She never told me she was hurting. She never told me she was tired. She just pushed herself to the edge. I guess she also shared my dedication. I know because right before she passed on, she looked me in the eye. It wasn’t anger, nor was it fear for her slave driver. No, it was a burning desire to go on. Death was not something she found could dampen her resolve. She had sacrificed herself towards my cause!

I wept afterwards. Yes, I wept like I had never wept before. Not even when word reached me of the death of my father did I weep as much. She was a friend, almost a platonic lover! My Gardevoir! My beautiful, special, beloved!

…

But that’s all in the past. Guilt has a way of following you around for your whole life. I don’t deny that it was I that had caused her death, but I have moved on.

Regardless, I pushed forward. Time passed, and I began to realise something. Through my constant fraternization with our Pokémon brethren, I found that, essentially, I was able to befriend them quite easily. Any Pokémon that I caught, immediately warmed up to me as though I were a long lost friend. They were all loyal to me; never once did any of them find the need to desert me. There, you see. That’s definitive proof I was the best. What other trainer could claim to have shared the connection I shared with my Pokémon? What trainer? Tell me!

I did feel guilty, though. It was this same special connection that drove some of my Pokémon to their deaths. All of them, loyal to the very end. Their persistence would have brought tears to my eyes if it were not for the fact that I had hardened myself to their charms. They loved me, I could tell. I tried not to love them back. I failed. I locked away my love deep within my heart and swore to never get too attached. That failed too. The tears that fell as, one by one, my original team expired, rocked me to my very core. I could not keep losing my dear friends this way. There had to be a way. I increased the levels of intensity of my training regimen. I was cold. I was callous. I was ruthless. I wanted them to hate me. I wanted them to be my tools towards the domination of the league and nothing more. Friends? I could do without them if it meant saving the lives of those I held dear to me.

But still, despite my cruelty, they drew closer, wanting to find the inner me. I think they sensed how, deep down, my intense love for them was present. Mutual, as was theirs. After that, I could never let them stop. They rushed forward into the thick of battle in droves, eager to prove themselves worthy of my affection. Was it a gift or curse that I had? I could not tell. To be loved is a delightful thing, but if it meant that they would gladly die en masse just to satisfy my desire of becoming champion… that was something else. It was sad.

Why didn’t I consider quitting? Surely that was a logical escape to my predicament. There is, however, a simple reason. The spirit of my Gardevoir wanted me to push forward. I could feel her by my side on those lonely nights after a burial, pushing me forwards, strengthening my resolve. I had to win for the sake of those that had fallen! I could not let the memory of those noble ones who had died in my name be shamed by my cowardice! Never!

In the end, however, I suppose that it was this very attitude that led me to the seventy-four deaths that tarnished my trainer years. Seventy-four deaths, my boy. All of them on my conscience. All of them wanted me to win. They wanted me to be the best! The best that there ever was! The best in the world!

In the end, I proved it to them. I became the champion. All my Pokémon continued to shower me with love and I continued my training. It was not enough to just be the best. I had to stay the best. What would the spirits of the seventy-four fallen say if I had been beaten by some new trainer who just happened to be better than me? I would be shamed. Their memory would be shamed. I could never let that happen!

Yes, even after becoming champion, the deaths still began to pile up. I could not stop training. My Pokémon could not stop pushing themselves for my sake. It was a vicious cycle. If only the world was static and trainers would not grow stronger with each passing generation. Then I would not have to train. You may think that it is out of disrespect that I do not include those fallen after my victory into the seventy-four noble ones. That is not so. I have lost count. The years have not been kind to me. I found that I was beginning to lose my edge. I was getting weaker and the trainers, stronger. I have said this. But no, I would not step down. A hundred or more have possibly fallen to my ambition. I felt every one of those deaths as a personal blow to my psyche and an encouragement to never lose. To no one would I fall!

Do you see that there in the corner? Of course you don’t. The bond between me and my Gardevoir is still strong even after all these years. I can still feel my Gardevoir’s presence. No, that isn’t entirely correct. It’s not just her. I can feel all of them with me right now. The hundred or so who have fallen are with me right now. Not in flesh, but in spirit. They are right behind me encouraging me to stay the champion. They whisper words of encouragement to me even now.

So you see, that is why I have to do this. The ropes are a courtesy, my boy. Would you rather my other Pokémon pin you down? The gag, so you do not scream. I have told you my story, and that was kind of me. Now you won’t feel so bad about going the way of my beloved Gardevoir. I promise, it will be painless, mostly. I have sharpened the knife to a point especially in case this ever happened. I told you, my boy, I cannot lose.

If only you hadn’t won.

Yuukihime
Silence


There is always something about silence that could drive a person mad. Those eerie silences that occur right before something bad happens. Many call it the quiet before the storm. A storm. That was going to be Cassandra's life in a nutshell during the next few days. Oh, but enough of my rambling, let's begin with the story, shall we?

Cassandra tossed and turned under her sheets, she couldn't sleep. Not with her twin sister coming home tomorrow. She was too excited to sleep and on top of that Halloween was tomorrow! What a day it was going to be tomorrow! She continued to toss and turn but couldn't settle down. Her Minun opened its eyes, and snorted at her obviously telling her in its own way to go to bed, and then went back to sleep. Cassandra laid down and took a look out the window. It was going to be a full moon tomorrow, a full moon on Halloween. They seemed to go hand in hand. What a perfect day tomorrow was going to be..

Cassandra closed her eyes and felt herself drifting off after, "I wonder..if ghosts will come out tomorrow...that would be fun.." Her words faded into oblivion as she felt herself fall asleep. She was completely at peace, even her dreams were peaceful.

She awoke the next morning to her alarm clock which had been set early so she could greet her sister properly. Cassandra could already hear movement downstairs. Her parents were already up, her mother making a special Halloween breakfast, and her father reading the paper silently but today was different. For the first time in 6 years she would see her sister who her parents sent away while the two were still seven.

She ran down the wooden stairs and nearly fell down them in the process. Cassandra peeked in through the hallway excited to see if her sister had arrive. No sign of her at all. The room was the same as it had always been. Her father sipping his coffee and her mother cooking breakfast. She let otu a disappointed sigh and decided to go sit down at the table.

Cassandra's father looked at her and then returned to the paper, he was always a serious man. Always focused on business and stocks. Her mother told her it was a stressful job and this is why Cassandra guessed that her father was nearly bald.

Her mother on the other hand was extremely upbeat, always greeting the world with a smile. She was someone who always managed to liven the household with her corny jokes and bad puns but this morning she was completely silent when cooking breakfast. Which Cassandra found odd because she had always liked to sing when cooking or doing anything for that matter. Whether she was any good or not was a completely different story. The whole house had an air of silence in it, excluding her pet Minun who was wolfing down it's breakfast.

"So...Alexandria is coming home today...what do you guys think?" Cassandra asked her parents. They remained silent. Why were they so quiet? Were they anxious to see their other daughter? Were they happy? Cassandra couldn't quite tell.

"Ah, Cassandra here's your breakfast. Chocolate chip pancakes with a side of marshmallows and please this year, don't name it Steve, I don't see why you have an obsession with naming marshmallows Steve." Even her voice this year held no cheer.

"Ah well I can't wait until Alexandria gets her-" She stopped mid sentence as she heard the loud stomp of shoes on the patio and the loud slam of a suitcase. Cassandra's stomach did a flip, it was her sister! She was home! Cassandra ran to greet her sister when the door flung open with angry force. Standing in the doorway was a girl, about 5"4 with short brown hair. Her eyes were a light green and her skin was a light peach color. Cassandra really wasn't expecting this to be her sister. She didn't look like anything she'd imagined. She had imagined someone with a much more meeker and reserved appearance..this person was..headstrong and outgoing.

"Where's my breakfast?" Alexandria declared with a harshness and sat down at the table. Her mother quickly hurried and set down some pancakes. She looked at the pancakes and then looked back at her mother, "You expect me to eat this? I demand something a little less on the syrupy side."

Cassandra could only look at her sister, this couldn't be her...not Alexandria. When they parted she had been so...so fragile and scared.

"Well that's what your sister is having..." Her mother mumbled meekly, almost as if she was scared of Alexandria. Her father said nothing, preferring to stay hidden behind the paper but she could see he was shaking. They were scared.

"Um...Alexandria...you don't have to be so rude." I pointed out, she turned to me and smirked. It was an evil smirk. Alexandria turned to their mother and snickered.

"Never mind, I'm not hungry, where's the bedroom? I'm a little tired after my trip." She said standing up and grabbing her suitcase.

"Oh it's upstairs, on the left." Her mother said but instead of responding to her mother she looked at Cassandra.

"You, you will show me where it is." Alexandria declared and grabbed Cassandra's hand and started dragging her up the stairs and grabbing her hand so tight that it started to hurt. When had her twin become so mean?? She wasn't headstrong, she was just mean..

Cassandra managed to break free of Alexandria's death grip once they reached the top of the stairs. She rubbed her wrist and looked at the red marks her sisters grip had left. She looked at her sister who was giving her an impatient look, "Well? Are you going to show me my room or not?" She hissed.

"It's down the hall..um..follow me.." Cassandra muttered and led her down the hall, unfortunately the only guest room had become a closet so Alexandria was to stay in her room. Which at first Cassandra was sort of excited about but now...

She opened the door to her bedroom, the bed was unmade and dirty clothes littered the floor. There was also a deflated air mattress spread out in the middle of the floor. Alexandria looked at it for a moment and then through her suitcase onto Cassandra's bed, "You can sleep on the air mattress." She said coldly. Cassandra looked at her in amazement. This couldn't be, her sister wasn't this mean.

"But..that's my bed..." Cassandra muttered. She still was having a hard time believing that her sweet younger twin sister had turned into such a jerk. Alexandria began unpacking her things onto the bed, "And Minun likes to sleep their and..." She couldn't find the heart to tell her that this was her room and to follow HER rules.

"Oh, so your run by a silly Pokémon? How lame Cassandra. Stick up for yourself once and awhile. Jeeze." She snickered and tossed the suitcase off the bed onto the floor and did a belly flop onto the bed, "I'll be taking my nap now. Leave." She ordered and closed her eyes.

"Um..did you want to go trick-or-treating tonight?" Cassandra asked meekly. She had bought them matching costumes and everything and last night was excited to go trick-or-treating with her sister.

Alexandria opened one eye, "You still go trick-or-treating? Lame. Anyway I have stuff to do tonight, I'll need to use your Minun too and I'll be moving everything out of the way in your room for tonight. A bunch of my friends are coming over to party." Alexandria stated. Cassandra couldn't say anything toward her sister. Her only response was to walk out of the room and close the door behind her.

She stood outside the room and felt tears run down her eyes. Had her sister always been this mean? What happened, what had changed her. She could still remember that meek little girl inside of her. One that couldn't live without her. One that clung to her and asked her to read stories with her. What happened? She contemplated and let the tears fall, she felt like she was in her own little world until her Minun came up and nuzzled her.

"Oh, Minun...What..happened?" Cassandra knelt down and gave her Minun a pat on the head, "At least, I get to go trick-or-treating with you... Let's go get our costumes ready." Cassandra mumbled and walked slowly down the stairs. Somehow she felt defeated in a way. This year was suppose to be the best Halloween ever. Going trick-or-treating with Alexandria and Minun on a fool moon.. It would have been so fun..

Cassandra had left her costume in the living room and it still needed some finishing touches, she was intending to be a Selene, a Lunatone anthromorph out of one of her favorite book series, and had planned for her sister to be Helios, Selene's twin brother but that wasn't going to work out, obviously. The only idea she had for Minun's costume was, ironically, a Plusle costume. It was simple, a little face paint and her was done. Minun and seemed to like the idea when they discussed it.

"Let's go get my costume Minun then I'll work on your face paint!"
She reached the bottom of the stairs and stopped. She could hear her parents arguing in the kitchen. Cassandra held her breath and began eavesdropping.

"We can't let her live in this house! It's too dangerous!" Her mother's voice cried. Cassandra peaked in to see her mother sitting at the table and her father standing beside her.

"Well the mental institution we sent her to closed down for malpractice...we didn't have any other choice but to take her back.. We'll find another, hopefully within a few days if not we need to send Cassandra away to make sure that what happened back then..doesn't happen again." Her father said and placed his beefy hand on her shoulder. Cassandra's mother broke down into tears. She had never seen her mother cry, not ever.

"Men...tal Institution...?" Cassandra whispered. Her heart beat had quickened as her parents sat silently in the room. The only thing that could be heard was her mother's sobs and the ticking of the clock. She was silently praying to Arceus that this was all some cruel dream. She pinched herself to make sure she wasn't having some horrifying nightmare. She had to keep herself from gasping as she noticed she did feel pain when pinching herself. This was no lie, she was not dreaming.

Then they must be lying right?
Yes, they had to be! Alexandria wasn't mentally unstable in the least bit. Right? RIGHT? She continued to argue with herself mentally. Trying to recall the day Alexandria had been sent away but no matter how she tried the only vivid image she could make out was her sister getting in the silver-painted car and driving off begging for her sister to come save her. That was the only thing she could think of! What had happened?! She kept searching her memories for something, anything that could possibly give her some clue. Any clue!


But nothing came.
When she had calmed down enough to stop arguing with herself she entered the kitchen to grab her costume, she was still shaking. Still afraid and confused she passed her mother who had stopped crying and was managing to keep her composure, her father had left to attend to some business. Cassandra didn't say anything to her mother. She felt a hint of anger towards her mother, why hadn't they told her? Why did they keep it a secret, why were they hiding things? Alexandria was her sister! She had the right to know!

She left into the living room, everything was still so silent. Even Minun, usually so talkative was completely silent.

She grabbed her costume and laid it down on the cream colored couch and grabbed the sewing equipment she had left on the coffee table. She began sewing the Lunatone costume, her Minun watching. Cassandra weaved the thread around the unfinished part of the costume in silence. Still trying to figure out what happened on that day.

The time passed slowly. What was only a few minutes seemed like eternity but eventually the sun began to set and it was time to put on her costume and go trick-or-treating with Minun. She had pushed the horrible idea out of her head that her sister was some mentally insane freak.

"Ah, Mom I'm going to go put my costume on!" Cassandra called. She got no response from her mother, she was still sitting at the table rubbing her temples. She went to the bathroom and closed the door. She still had to do her face make-up and hair, "I'll be back soon, Minun. Wait here till I'm done" She told her Minun, the small Pokémon nodded.

And while Cassandra was doing her make-up in the bathroom Alexandria from her room. Her hair in adorned with many charms and wearing a black cloak, "Come here Minun, I want to show you something..." The Pokemon looked at her in fear as Alexandria flashed a sadistic grin at the Pokemon. She grabbed the small helpless creature and returned to her room.

When Cassandra had emerged from the bathroom about 20 minutes later in full face make-up with some silver hair streaks she had noticed that Minun wasn't there, "Minun..Minun, hello...? Where did you go?" Cassandra called, "Must have gone back to my room to get something..." Cassandra though, "We're gonna be late if he keeps this up!" She smiled and decided to check her room. Walking down the hall she was dreaming of all the sweets she would get tonight and how much to eat in one night.

She slowly opened the door...and as soon as she had she wished she hadn't.

All of her things were pushed to the sides, the bed, all her chests of clothing, everything. Alexandria was standing in the middle of the room adorned in a black cloak with the hood pulled over her head and was chanting in what sounded to be Latin. What was more horrifying was what she was standing in front of.

It was a pentagram, candles, the star and was traced in what appeared to be blood. And in the middle was what shocked her the most, in the middle was her Minuns corpse. Beheaded and mutilated. Its organ spewn everywhere, eyes clawed out.

"Alex...andria....!" Cassandra's voice was hoarse and her mouth was dry.

"Oh...? It seems I've been found out...Well, regardless...look at my masterpiece...! A summoning circle! I'll summon Giratina and right the wrongs that have been dealt to me!" She cackled evilly. Cassandra's heartbeat quickened.

And for the first time since Alexandria arrived, Cassandra yelled, "WHY! WHY ALEXANDRIA?! WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS!"

Alexandria clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, "Because..." Alexandria's body relaxed and she let out a loud cackle, "I CAN!" Alexandria gave her sister an amusing look. She was getting pleasure from watching Cassandra squirm.

Again that eerie silence filled the room. Cassandra was shaking, and tears were flowing from her eyes. Why had her sister done this? She must be possessed, she must!

"Ah, I know what you're thinking right? 'She must be possessed', right? Wrong" Cassandra froze, now Alexandria knew what she was thinking? What WAS she? "There is also a reason why I'm doing this, I wanted to hurt all the people who hurt me...starting with you." Alexandria's voice had gone cold and was filled with hate, "Why was I sent away and not you? Why was I sent away to that horrid INSTITUTION while you continued to live in peace...that day...the day I told you I had killed that houndour..you told me you would protect me..and I BELIEVED YOU BUT INSTEAD YOU SOLD ME OUT! And now it's payback time...For Mom and Dad who left me in that horrid place...and for you..who sinned against me..."

Cassandra was to frozen, she couldn't remember what her sister was talking about..Why? Why was she being blamed, "Alexandria..." Cassandra's voice went shaky.

"Well, now that your here..let's get this show on the road, I'm going to kill you all and use you all as sacrifices for my ritual...At least your death won't be in vain." Alexandria cackled and stepped onto the mangled corpse that she used to call Minun. Alexandria's foot stepped clear on the heart and the heart made a distinct, wet, sound as it flattened. Alexandria cackled evilly, Cassandra bolted out of the room and down the stairs.

"Mama, Papa! Alexandria's gone..!" Her voice wouldn't work as she tried to explain what had happened.

"Cassandra you've looked like you've seen a ghost, what's wrong?" Her mother mumbled and her father was going to ask the same when Alexandria ran down the steps, laughing like a maniac. She stopped at the last step and grinned.

"Oh good, your all here...now I can dispose of you all....you'll let me right?" Alexandria said in light-hearted tone.

"Y-Your insane!" Cassandra yelled and hid behind her mother. Her mother was shaking as well and her father gave her a defiant look. Alexandria gave them a look of disappointment and then let out another cackle.

"So that's how it's going to be, I really hadn't hoped it would come to this but of course you can never do things like this the easily." She reached for a butcher knife in the kitchen and grabbed it so tight her hands began to turn white.

"Run..call the cops...I'll hold her off..." Her father whispered to her, Cassandra looked at him with despair. She reached out for his hand.

"No...daddy you don't have to do this...We can leave together...we-" Before she finished her sentence her father collapsed in front of her. Alexandria was now standing in front of him and lunged the serrated blade into his stomach. Her mother took her hand and ran upstairs while Alexandria was preoccupied dismembering and dissecting their father.

The two hid in the closet hoping and praying that Alexandria wouldn't find them in this tiny closet. The only sound was their breathing. Cassandra's mother held her tight as a Cassandra buried her face into her mother's chest

"Oh mother...oh darling sister...where are you....?" Her sister's sadistic voice filled the halls of the stairs closet and one could hear her dragging the blade against the walls, "Oh I see..hiding in the closet from me...how mean and all I wanted to do is play...

This is when Cassandra's mother released her grip, "Cassandra, Mommy...is going to save you...I will distract you...and you call the cops and run...I brought her into this world and can most certainly take her out...if I die...and am unable to take her down just run...don't try to fight her..just run..." She mumbled and released her daughter from her arms, "I love you..never forget that." The mother stood up and opened the closet the store.. and then the sound of a tackle...accompanied by a loud thud.

"Oh...sister deaaaaressssssst where ARRRRRE YOOOOOU?" Her sister cackled and approached ever close to the closet, "Don't worry, I won't hurt you...not one bit.." She closed her eyes and waited for impending doom and prayed to Arceus.

"Please..Arceus..let me stop her...even if I die in the process..." After the silent prayer, she knew what she had to do...first would be to call the police..second would be to kill her monster of a sister. She had to summon all her courage..for one last time Cassandra would face her sister.

She left the closet and looked at her sister. Blood and organs had splattered the hallway. Cassandra tried not to look at was once her mother, "Alright, you want me...you got me, Alexandria." Cassandra smirked at her sister but soon bolted for down stairs. She had to find a phone, and fast. Luckily, she knew where her parents cell phones were and she would call the cops.

She began rummaging through the kitchen drawers. She heard her sister entering the room and her evil cackled, "Oh, so you're going to call the cops on me? That's mean." She cackled and ran towards Cassandra. In the nick of time Cassandra grabbed her mother's cell phone and ran around her sister as she stabbed the butcher knife into one of the drawers.

"Okay...9..1...1" Cassandra dialed as fast as she could while still running from her maniac sister who had grabbed another butcher knife.

"911 what is your emergency?" The operator's voice was calm cool and collective.

"Please, send cops quick! My sisters gone mad! She's already killed our mom and dad..I'm at...4156.. Elm Road in Littleroot town! Please hurry!" She dropped the cell phone and could not longer answer the 911 operator ''Hello hello!'' cries.

Now it was a matter of waiting, but the cops would take to long...She only called the cops because she knew they would both be dead by the time they got here. She was in the living room, and was desperately looking for a weapon, her sister was still following her and she had to think of something fast. She grabbed her mother's glass flower pot from the coffee table and clenched it tight. Now was the moment of truth.

Her sister had found her and was running at her with a knife, it was time..She would make sure her sister would never kill anyone again, even if her parents didn't want her to die...she knew how this was going to end.

"DIEEEEE!" Alexandria hissed and lunged the knife at the same moment Cassandra smashed the pot onto Alexandria's head.. The two fell with a sickening thump to the ground and blood began to pool around the two.

-----
October 31st, 2010, a tragic day. A family of three was found murdered and horribly mangled in Littleroot town. The victims were as follows, John Mazerek, Anette Mazerek, and Cassandra Mazerek. It is believed that there was a struggle with the killer who is unknown. The bodies were found completely beheaded and ripped open with large amounts of blood spatter all over the house. The Father was found in the kitchen, the mother in the upstairs hallway, and the daughter in the living room. From the 911 calls, it is believed that Alexandria Mazerek is the killer.

This is not possible, however.

Alexandria Mazerek died in a fatal car accident just the day before, it seems the family had not received the notice that she had died.

So many unanswered questions came with this case, why did the murderer feel he had to mangle their bodies so badly? Why had Cassandra claimed it was her sister killing them? And why couldn't the Growlithe's find any evidence of a fourth person at the scene?

Regardless, this family was horribly murdered by a fourth person..this was not a murder-suicide because all bodies were found dissected.

So many questions were left unanswered on this case.. Sometimes I wonder if this was caused by some otherworldly being..

-Pokemon OldPlatinum-



(couldn't think of a better name, sorry...)

It was what people would call a „normal day“ when I decided to replay my good old Platinum version. With the release of HeartGold/SoulSilver in my country, I totally forgot about Platinum but I decided that one day, when I´m done playing my HeartGold, I´m gonna go back to Sinnoh and finally, that day has arrived. But unfortunately, I couldn´t find my beloved Platinum anymore even after I searched in the entire house for it (no surpise, I often lose stuff). A bit disappointed, I looked at eBay whether there was one for sale and there indeed was. The weird thing was that there was only one result when I searched for “Pokemon Platinum”: With the cheap price of 3 dollars. Although I read many stories where scary stuff happened when they bought Pokemon games at such a cheap price, I somehow couldn´t resist and bought it. Some days later, it finally arrived. There was nothing abnormal on the game but I soon should find out that I was wrong about that. Everything seemed to be normal: From the intro to the well-known shillouete of Giratina. Very happy about that fact, I pressed Start and saw that, unsurprisingly, the pre-owner hasn´t deleted his save. Since I was pretty curious on what team he had, how he called himself etc. I decided to look what he´s got – not pretty much judging from his playtime: Only 2:25. Maybe he just got bored pretty early in the game or he is a very fast player, but I decided not to care about that and pressed A.
I found myself in a room in the Old Chateau, probably the eastern one. The weird thing was that, instead of the normal sprite of the protagonist, I saw the sprite of a little boy. I decided to check the menu whether there were more surprises and soon found more: The player had no Pokedex, not a single badge although he at least has to have two when he has played till the Old Chateau and only one Pokemon in his team: Rotom. There goes the imagination of an awesome team. I decided to end my little trip through the menu and explore the mansion. But instead of the old, broken home where many ghosts live, everything looked clean and new, as if there people live in there. I walked the stairs down and soon, a textbox popped up saying: “CHARON!” Seemed to be the player´s name (I must´ve overseen that in the beginning) because the little boy moved without me pressing anything in the dining room where he seat himself next to a little girl. There were also an old man, a woman and a butler but the butler was pretty busy walking around and serving the meal. After an eating scene everyone left the room – except for one person: The butler. I wanted to check it out but everytime I tried to walk out of my old room, I got pushed back. I finally realized that every escape would be pointless and checked out the room. Everything was normal, except for a notebook that I never really noticed. It was where the player before saved. Curious how I was, I decided to take a look, went to the notebook and presed A. Something I´m gonna regret for the rest of my life.

Day XX Month XX: I got the job as a butler. Yeah!

Day XY Month XX: Everything seems to go well. But the little boy here always looks at me in a weird way, as if I´m a thief or something like that.

Day XX Month XY: I´m starting to hate this family. They treat me like the last dirt, don´t even pay well! The old man even threw books after me just because I´ve forgotten to clean up the room.

Day XY Month XY: I´m gonna pay them back today! They´re all gonna die!

When I read the last two lines, I had one of the biggest shocks in my whole life: The date of the entry is today´s! Just when I was done reading the diary, I heard a woman´s scream. It came from the DS! I tried to exit the room and, whether you could call it luck or not, he door opened. Just when I ran down the stairs there came a textbox saying: “Don´t come any closer!” Usually, I´d listen to such warnings but my curiosity kept me going. When I entered the room in the left, I saw the butler with a Mismagius, and a body surrounded by blood. It was the woman! I ran out there as fast as possible, heading for the exit but I soon found out that when I tried to leave, the same thing like in my room before wil happen. Suddenly, I saw the butler sprite running to me but I managed to escape by hiding under the table in the dining room. Instead of a textbox, a voice from the DS said: “I will find you and kill you!” I was so scared I even turned around to see whether there was anyone behind me but to my luck, no one was there. I decided to play on although it´d probably better not to. It was soon after I hid the little dude when the next scream came, this time a little older. I decided it´d be best to be brave and rescue the little girl before he´d kill her, too. I ran from under the table straight to the floor with the five rooms. The only problem I haven´t thought of is where the girl´s room is. I just decided for the room with he TV where you would normally encounter Rotom and dashed in there. Luckily the girl was inside and soon a textbox popped up: “Finally you´re here! Let´s escape from here!” The last thing that came from the textbox was a “Girl joined you.” I went outside, now with a little girl on my site. But the butler also was in the floor. Now where there was no way to run, I took a closer look at him: His eyes were expressionless and his Mismagius looked like it wouldn´t have a soul. Without any dialogue, I was forced into a battle. Thr butler had Darach´s battlesprite without the Lady but had his dull, expressionless eyes and a Mismagius that also seemed to have a dark or no soul. Without a Pokeball animation, the Mismagius came out. Instead of its normal cry, it had a scary woman´s scream mixed with the screech sound of R/B/Y. Its level was 100. Since I had nothing else to offer I sent Rotom. But when I clicked “battle” it said “Rotom has no PP left” although I haven´t had any battles before and Rotom had full HP at the beginning of the game. Against every law of Pokemon, my Lv.20 Rotom attacked first with “Struggle” which did almost no damage. Mismagius finished it with a Shadow Claw. When Rotom fainted, the batler´s sprite appeared behind the Mismagius out of nowhere and in the textbox it said: “Now you can perish!” The battle scene disappeared and I found myself in the floor with the girl, the butler and the Mismagius. Mismagius moved closer when all of a sudden, the word “RUN” in a textbox appeared, followed by a YES/NO question. I decided for “YES” and soon, the little boy ran out of the room with Mismagius trying to follow. Just when it was about to reach me, Rotom came out of the Pokeball and took the Shadow Claw that was meant to kill me. Terrified, I tried to run out of the room. It worked! When the boy left the mansion you saw the sprite of the little boy running in the town. The screens went black when you could hear a little girl´s scream out of the forest.
I tried pressing A over and over again when I finally stopped and turned the DS off. I think this game should show us how Charon´s life was. With no family left and his only friend Rotom dead, he must´ve led a hard life. Trying to fill that gap with money, he joined Team Galactic. I´ve always hated Charon but I´ll definetively never look at him in that way ever again now that I know about that. I still have that hacked game but I´ll never play it again.

The Pilot Episode


The creators of Pokemon originally planned a Yu-gi-Oh! Like show that involved Pokemon cards, it was going to be called “TCG”. As an Artist for the 1st season of the original Pokemon I was called in to draw for this one. I found the drawing dull, and repetitive but when we asked to retire or leave early the heads of the show threatened to find us, and make sure that we would live a horrid life. Knowing about Pokemon Green's Lavender Town most of us believed this, although there was an older gentleman named Steven Davidson who never believed a show, game, or anything for that matter could hurt you in any way. One day Steve threatened to leave because some of the ideas in the show were a little too macabre for children, of course the heads of the office threw the threats at him, but he angrily stormed out and went right over to his lawyer to get the heads sued. Of course the 4kids, Pokemon corporation, and Nintendo lawyers made sure to keep this case quiet, they paid the lawyer $5,000,000 to keep the case in private court and ended up losing. This drawback made the first episode be cut to 3:00 AM on a Wednesday, which of course wouldn't matter because of what was going to happen.

Everything was quiet around the offices until we ended planning period, and started work on the pilot episode. We were taken into a room by a man we didn't know, and he began a Film labeled “Opening Theme”. The Theme did not have music yet and was in black in white with low end sketches instead of animation. The opening theme would consist of Ash's son standing in a field and staring into the sky, suddenly a flash would occur and Brock would be standing there in front of Ash's son who was now named as Shane by a caption, what was weird however is that when the Brock caption flashed on the screen an older looking Steven Stone could be seen sitting in the tree in a background, the weird thing about it was that Steven wasn't even mentioned in the Pilot episode's Script. As we watched this a few people turned white, I wondered why and then someone asked the presenter to pause so he could get a better look at “that man in the background”, suddenly I also turned white as I saw that Steven wasn't sitting, he was impaled by the tip of a pine tree. The presenter continued the tape. After that A new girl ,who was to be named Linda according to the caption, was shone, she wore a white dress and in her hand held a card, upon closer inspection it was a Mismagius. Linda held the card up and a Mismagius flew off screen, after that the screen went black and a Skarmory was shone flying towards the viewer, although the Skarmory actually Flew off the screen or so it seemed. The presenter paused and explained that this would be the first ever show to utilize Autostereoscopy which was a way to see 3d without Cyan-Red glasses. With the Steven Stone picture still fresh in our mind a friend of mine took her cellphone out and called the head of production for “TCG”.

About 20 minutes later an Audi pulled up to the studio and a man named Lyle Hernandez introduced himself and told us that this show would not be aired, and all of us would be payed $10,000 by the U.S government. The presenter was taken to the Audi, and later that night on the 11:00 news a reporter said that a man named Buck Williams was taken to jail for the murder of Steven Davidson, and that everyone who had worked on an upcoming show with him would be charged for helping him commit this crime.

Report created on 11/1/2009 by JOHN HOWLAND

11/1/2009, 2030 hrs Homicide
3855 Hopfield Road
Crime Scene

I was dispatched to this location at 0700 hours this morning after reports came in of an endangered individual. A fifteen year old girl named Annette Manzano called in after receiving a series of text messages this morning from a friend which displayed signs of an increasing state of fear (messages in Evidence section below). Upon arrival, three victims were found inside, identified as Melissa Shillings, Jamison Adams, and Kent Taylor. Each had sustained hundreds, possibly thousands of minute puncture wounds, from which were seeping a mixture of blood and an unidentified black liquid. Gouges on the inside of the door and wooden splinters under the fingernails of the deceased suggest that they tried to claw their way through the door, which was locked upon my arrival. Muscle freeze at the moment of death left expressions of extreme terror on their faces.

All of the doors and windows to the room of the crime scene were closed and locked, although they do not appear to be durable enough to contain a desperate victim. No signs of entry or exit by another individual have been found.

Forever
Passing Thoughts
Passing Thoughts

I'm long gone. That's a fact. I needed to tell someone, you must listen, before it's too late. I can sense you want to push this information away, but... no, your life will be lost if you do not heed my warning. Take this seriously, not like the Annoying Orange, or the Mashmellow called Steve. This is something you must remember.

Anyway... a couple of years back, I purchased a Pokemon Gold game along with a Game Boy for about $20AUD. A friend of mine sold it to me, who had played the game for hours on end, meaning it was sort of worn out – which is why I got a discount. After I heard everyone talking about how vast Johto is, I knew I had to play them somehow.

I played every other main Pokemon game; except Gold. I played Silver and Crystal, I knew what they were like. It was just up to this one game, then I'd really be a Pokemon master. I didn't care that I wasted my life on Pokemon, to me, it was for my mother.

I'd watched all the movies – with the Spell of the Unown scaring me the most. I couldn't imagine meeting real Unown. It just seemed too surreal. I mention this because... well, you'll see. It will show why I fear for those children who are addicted to the games; why I'm no longer here.

The first playthrough was quite memorable. I caught a shiny Entei in the grass outside of Violet City, before they were even released, you know, later on in the game where they roam Johto? Yeah, I kind of bypassed that somehow. But, I cherished that Entei. It was mine, the first shiny I'd ever caught. I knew we could go far. I took a few photos of it and reset the game – I knew he would always be in my heart.

You see, I was addicted, I couldn't put the game down. I replayed the game about five more times after that, each time becoming more involved with them. I started hallucinating that there were real Pokemon near me, but I didn't mind that – they were my friends, I didn't question this. I lived alone with only my father and I was so anti-social I had no other friends. I sort of started yelling at them one day and I don't really know why, I guess I couldn't control myself, but from then on, I had no human friends. These small pixels on the game were my only friends. I could feel them, I could talk to them, I could sense that whenever I was down, they were there. Even when I reset the game, I didn't feel like they were lost. Physically, they were by my side. I began to build an army, I didn't desire to take over the world, no, they were just my friends.

On the sixth time I reset, the game acted... differently. When I clicked “New Game”, I didn't see Professor Elm in the introduction; instead I saw Delhia, or otherwise known as Red's Mother. She said everything Professor Elm would have said, but with her sprite. I slowly kept tapping A until I got to the point where I could name myself. I decided to name myself “Molly”, this time around because that was the name of my mother who... had passed away. Seeing Red's mother reminded me of how close I was with her, so I was going to play through the game, to honour her.

The start of the game was like my first any other playthrough without any mention of what happened in the introduction. I made the assumption that it was just a glitch and nothing more – my friends wouldn't do anything to me to try to scare me, would they?

When it came time to pick a Pokemon, I chose Cyndaquil, but I twitched, as Elm said “I don't have Cyndaquil, sorry... please take Totodile.” I re-read it twice, wondering why I had to take Totodile, but I took it anyway. I knew that I would soon form an unbreakable bond with Totodile and that we would be together; forever.

Totodile proved to be pretty strong, with good EV's – I didn't even need to catch another Pokemon up until the route after Cherrygrove. I caught a Celebi. Not any Celebi, but a shiny Celebi. Something wasn't right about this Celebi, though. I didn't have a connection with it like I had with every other Pokemon. Each time I looked at it, I started to feel drowsy, I lost sensation in my hands. I started breathing faster. This Celebi was important, for some reason or another, but it was determined to make me suffer. I put down the game for a few hours and I continued playing, ignoring Celebi.

When I picked up the game, I went through everything like normal, I even maanged to battle Bug Catcher Wade. But, once I beat him, the game seemed darker. I got a sense that there was something more in Violet City. I started to lose the aura I had with my Pokemon. I was worried, I... couldn't lose them, they made me feel like I was a human again, like I was a real person. I didn't even consider that the game was hacked, that it was all a lie at the time. No, I continued, because I knew I couldn't lose these friends.

I went into the house where you can participate in an in-game trade. The man asked me if I wanted to trade a Granbull for my starter, Totodile. I accepted because I wanted to make new friends, I wanted them to experience life outside of that box. When I got it, it was level 31. The massive level difference was great, but I knew I couldn't train it, it wouldn't listen to me. I could sense that it wanted to hurt me. I slowly moved my finger over to the start menu, pressing the down button until I got to save. I hesitated, and shut it off. I didn't want this Granbull anymore. I wanted my Totodile back.

As soon as I turned the game on again, the Johto theme song began playing in the game opening; by then I knew Violet City, or the game rather was cursed. I was disappointed, but addicted. Even still, I couldn't lose my friends, they mean so much to me. I had to beat this game for them.

When I pressed “New Game”, the screen went dark blue for about 5 seconds and returned back to where I was before I entered that house, which was in front of Bug Catcher Wade. When I entered Violet City again, I saved straight away and went over to the Gym to see what type of gym leader was there. Inside the gym, there was... nobody. All I saw was a gym without anyone in it, which was really unusual. As I went to exit the gym, Professor Elm's assistant ran up to me, asking me whether I'd take Professor Elm's egg to hatch it, so he can research on it. I agreed and left the building. I wanted to see what the egg was – maybe it was my shiny Entei, which I couldn't feel the aura of ever since Celebi joined my party. I still don't even know how I found Celebi, but... I'm not sure.

I left Violet City and entered the Ruins of Alph, looking for the gym leader. To my right, I saw a huge tower with strange blue and purple flowers around it – the size of normal flowers, but their positioning was... unusual. I entered the tower, expecting to find something scary; the first thing I saw was a bed in the middle of the tower, along with some books on the floor and a toy Entei. Immediately, I felt a chill down my spine, like something was happening that I couldn't control. I loved Entei but... I didn't want to play the game anymore... the tower reminded me too much of the one in the Spell of the Unown.

That movie... caused me to lose my one and only mother. It was too scary. I couldn't. I...

I don't believe in supernatural things usually, but I know somehow those Pokemon got to her. You see, she had a heart attack, when Molly's father in the movie disappeared. I never got to see the end of the movie and I never wanted to. All I know is that Unown were involved and they... somehow caused her death.

I couldn't keep playing the game anymore. I would rather live in a world without imagination than face my greatest fear; the Unown.

About a month later, on a stormy Halloween night, I was bored and decided to pick up Gold for another try. I knew I had to face my demons, plus, I really missed my Pokemon.

I turned on the game, while at the same time turning on the TV. I heard the Johto theme song in the opening, once more. I turned around to look at the TV, but it short circuited somehow. I'd like to think that it was the wind, but I know it wasn't. It couldn't have been. I heard a growl nearby, I turned to my left and I faintly saw the outline of Granbull but it was too large to be one. I felt sweat drip down off my forehead as I felt something almost touch my back. This wasn't real, it... can't be real.

I quickly entered the tower again, knowing that as soon as I went in there, it would mean the faster I could leave it.

On the upper floor, there was a shiny Entei. It was my Entei, I could tell, but it didn't recognise me. I couldn't physically sense it was there – I could see it, yet it wasn't there, if you get what I mean.

I closed my eyes, counted to six and continued pressing the a button, advancing through all of the text that displayed, which just showed what each letter of the alphabet was, but based upon the Unown. I didn't want to see them at all, I just needed my Entei back.

The game asked me if I wanted to battle Entei. I accepted. It was the only way to win him, and in a way, communicate to my mother, that I still loved her.

Before the battle started, a new dialog box popped up, saying “Molly, I love you, but you know I can never be yours. You need to beat me,, to free us all... so that we can all be with you.”

I felt the tears filling my eyes, as I suddenly remembered the day my mother read a story to me. It was the night before she died. It was some story about how dogs are always faithful to their owners, because they really love them – a lot more than any other animal. I knew Entei represented a dog and then I knew... Molly was my mother. I'm going to have to beat Entei to let her go, so she can finally be free from wherever she is. I don't know where, but it definitely isn't here.

When the battle started, my main Pokemon was a Charizard. Did the game really want me to pit a Pokemon I didn't know against Entei? Either way, I had to fight it. Charizard won easily, but... when I beat it, I didn't feel alive anymore. I didn't feel like I was in the room. I didn't feel like I was playing a game, I... wasn't alive.

I know lots of people have died and come back to life and have barely remembered it, but I remember it fully. All in detail. I saw... my mother. She was just a baby, I felt like I had an aura with her and that she was talking to me, but... her mouth wasn't moving. I could hear a voice saying that I could never rescue my mother, that playing the games, has only wasted another life, that it was all Game Freak ever intended to do. They created Pokemon to destroy lives; to make them... their slaves. They wanted to take over the world, and they could do it, I know that now.

…

She was gone. In an instant, I'd lost my mother; I was alone again in the world. My Pokemon were gone. Everything... even the illusion I had of them being real. The world around me was beginning to fade, I was returning to life... I....

It was a dream. My mother was never there, but I did see something. In the background, I saw an Entei. My Entei and my mother was there. I couldn't be in this world anymore. Pokemon had given me so much, but yet taken away so much. I do remember though, that when children play Gold they lose everything else. They're trapped in the world of Pokemon. I know my childhood is long gone, and I can only blame the Unown for so long until I realise that it's my fault. I was the one who wasted her life – not the Unown. Now I'm stuck half-way between here and half-way between there, knowing that Pokemon has taught me so much, yet never let me experience what it's like to be alive. I'm just a soul now. I'm forever lost, I have nothing left, but I needed to let you know that please, stop your children from playing or watching Pokemon so obsessively. Eventually you'll all disappear and you won't have anything left. Don't let your life be a waste...

Deception


We join our heroes once again as they are en route to Viridian Forest, where the annual Pikachu-Sighting contest is held. The golden tree branches swell in the cold Autumn wind, leaving behind a mysterious sound. Slowly creeping through the woodlands, they can't help but notice miniature shadows pop out in the nearby bushes. After a long, upsetting walk, Ash, Misty and Brock finally arrive at the campgrounds in the centre of the forest. Suddenly, a shadowy figure appeared before them.

“We welcome you, dear visitors, to the contest campgrounds.”

Its face bent into an unnerving smile, deeply disturbing the three friends. They didn't have time to think about it, though, as the middle-aged woman pointed her finger at a distant silhouette.

“Your tent is over there. You should be safe over there.” With that, the woman slowly departed.

As puzzled as they were, they walked over to the tent, which, much to their surprise, was in perfect condition. Three comfortable-looking sleeping bags were already in there, so there was no need to use theirs. After eating dinner in silence, Ash came up with the brilliant idea to stroll through the woods until the moonrise. Of course, they all accepted.

Hacking their way back into the dense forest, they couldn't help but notice the different atmosphere. The tree branches were no longer golden, being replaced by empty, lifeless, depressing contours. No longer was the Autumn breeze in the air. Instead, an abominably chilling tempest took its place. As soon as they stepped into this chaos, the way back was indistinguishable from the rest of the tenebrous pathways.

Panic soon overcame them, as they ventured even deeper into the woodlands. A few minutes later, an ancient cabin came into their view, to their relief. They ran as fast as they could towards it, breaking the seemingly eternal silence that confined them. Pushing the rusty metal door, they were greeted with a magnificent scent. There was no sign that anyone had ever lived there, except for a few paper sheets which time made impossible to read. Spider webs were scattered all over, and the source of the smell wasn't to be found.

Typically of Brock, he went to take a dump into the woods. As he slid open his zipper, he noticed a dark Pikachu unlike any he had previously seen. The strange animal charged towards him, revealing his carnivorous appearance. A desperate scream was heard in the vicinity, alarming Misty and Ash. They went to search for Brock, and found him deeply frightened. Clutching his hands, they both dragged him back inside the cabin.

The three friends immediately went to sleep, hoping that the night would pass faster this way. However, they couldn't shrug off the feeling that something was watching from afar. Unbeknownst to them, however, was the fact that the same Pikachu was on the fragile roof of the cabin, its bloodshot eyes concentrated on what was happening inside.

A snowflake fell from the skies.

The next morning, the friends woke up with a scare as they heard a loud “Bang!” that tore the silence to pieces. They immediately rushed outside, but the door was unmovable. They thrust with all their might, and they finally made their way outside. That moment, three astounded people were watching as a snowstorm was raging outside, everything covered with a thick layer of snow. The next moment, however, another bang was heard through the air, and when they recovered from the shock they found themselves back into the cabin, as if nothing had happened. Outside, everything was the same as it was when they arrived. Morning hadn't come yet.

The friends didn't know what was going on, or rather, didn't want to. The only thing they wished was that they would be at home, in their warm beds, at safety. The pitch-black Pikachu winked.

Ash woke up to the smell of flowers. The weird feeling that something was missing overcame him as he descended to the ground floor of his house. His Mum greeted him with a kiss, then he sat down at the table as he waited for breakfast. Calmly, he looked out the window only to see the same woman from the campsite, staring at him nervously. A blink of an eye later, then she was gone. He didn't have time to reflect on that, though, as his mother put a fresh orange on his plate, then left for work. As soon as he attempted to cut the orange, a scream was heard. The orange then started talking for what seemed like hours, only muttering nonsense. The whole time, Ash stared at it, but couldn't comprehend the abnormality of the situation.

Suddenly, it clicked. As the same Pikachu on the roof frowned, Ash woke up yet again inside the cabin. The creature had one more ace up its sleeve, one that didn't involve dreams.

As the morning sun rose up on the silver sky, the three friends left the cabin in an attempt to go back to the campgrounds. The events of the previous night seemingly forgotten, they strolled calmly, cheerfully even, through the forest. This time, a warm breeze flowed through the air, and numerous flowers hung on every branch. Pink leaves completed the charming landscape. They came to a river, where they decided to take a break to eat. They laid down a cloth, then, once again, Brock left to take a leak. He returned soon, a scared expression visible on his face. He kept muttering the same phrase over and over again, but Ash and Misty couldn't understand anything. Brock let out a scream, grabbed a knife, and ran into the woods. They ran after him, but couldn't find him.

Three days later, their food was running low. On the verge of a crazy-like state, they abandoned any hope to return to the campgrounds and decided to go back to Pallet Town. They ran, and ran, and ran until Misty bumped into something and fell. An old doll was sitting on the ground, and it had a string to make her talk, like the old ones that Misty used to play with when she was young. Ash decided to take it, as Misty started to cry when she saw it.

Finally, Pallet Town came into view. The two bid farewell to each other, and they both expressed their will to try to find Brock the next day. Ash entered his house, but no one was home. He figured his mother was at work again, so he remained calm. Later that evening, as she wasn't home yet, he decided to call her.

“Hello? Mum?” He silently asked, waiting for an answer.

“Hey, how may I help you? I think you may have got the wrong number”. A reply from the familiar voice he knew so well.

“Mum, it's me, Ash. When will you come home?” Ash was starting to get worried.

“Listen, it's not nice to prank call people. If you don't stop, I'm going to call the police.” Then she hung up.

Ash started to cry, in disbelief. He couldn't understand what was happening. How could she forget him? What had happened? He decided to call Brock's family, to tell them the regrettable truth about their son.

“Hello Mrs. Stone, it's me, Ash. I have to tell you something about your son.” He hoped for a reply.

“My son? Which one of them?” The woman replied, in an alarmed tone.

“Brock. You may know that we went camping together, several days ago.”

“Excuse me, but I don't know any Brock. I suggest you call the police, because you got the wrong number. Goodbye.”

Hopelessly, Ash completely broke down. The doll, which he put in front of him, on the table, started to talk by itself. It started talking gibberish again, repeating the same thing over and over, each time in a lower tone, as if the battery depleted. Its last world, however, could clearly be understood.

“Don't worry, your friends are in a better place now. Have fun!” Then it stopped.

The entire atmosphere darkened, and sounds were heard everywhere. Someone attempted to open the front door. It was locked. Ash went to see who it was. No one was there. The walls. They were slowly getting closer to each other. Screams were coming from everywhere. Everywhere. Ash wanted to exit the house. He couldn't. They were outside. Waiting for him. His Mum. The campsite woman. Brock. Ash fainted.

That night, at Misty's house, she was calmly sitting on her bed. The TV blared in the background.

“Former Pokémon Champion, Ash Ketchum, was found dead in his house in Pallet Town. Experts cannot find out the cause of the death. Reportedly, neighbours saw him running erratically around the ground floor, as if chased by something. Next, the Pikachu-sighting contest was a success--.

Misty turned off the television, then started laughing. As her skin turned darker, her hair became longer and longer, the laugh became maniacal.

“Finally, back into action.” Zoroark said, having dismissed its human-like appearance. Next to him, a Pikachu, Ash's one, in fact, was slowly turning black, its eyes becoming red.

A calendar was hanging on the wall, next to the alarm clock. Bright digits, that read 3:00 AM, could be seen next to the current date, 31st of October.

“Trick or Threat?”
Charzeon
A Red Eye Night





Seth poked one eye out from the blanket covering his head, just as the girl on tv was stabbed in the back by some unknown assailant. This caused a huge amount of blood to burst from her back and hit the camera, drenching it red.

"Jabez, why do we have to watch this?" Seth whimpered to his much older brother who sat right next to him on the couch.

"Oh come on Seth, it's Halloween," Jabez replied lazily, his eyes not leaving the tv, "you gotta watch a scary movie on Halloween. It's pratically a crime if you don't."

"But...why do we have to watch something this scary?" The 6 year-old boy asked.

"Oh come on Seth, it's not that scary," the 19 year-old young man said. "See? That girl who was just killed is about to get some pay back."

Confused and very curious, Seth turned back to the moive and saw that there was now a whole bunch of ghost Pokemon surrounding the dead girl. A Haunter floated over to her and put a hand into her body. Slowly, the rest of the ghost when into her and, when that was complete, the girl opened her now blood red eyes. She then stood up, pulled out the knife that was still in her back, and walked over to her murderer. The man, who had ben quietly walking away all this time, now turned to see who or what was following him. His eyes grew wide as hhe saw the living dead girl but before he could do anything the possessed girl thrust the knife at him and stabbed him in the heart. This brought about another burst of blood that seemed to cover the camera.

Seth whimpered pathetically and once again hid his head under the blanket. Jabez just grunted and said, "Oh come on, it is so obviously fake. There is no way anyone would have that much blood, let alone that much from a wound like that. Even if it is at the heart."

This struck Seth at very strange and he looked up at his older brother with is wide, brown eyes. For a while, the younger brother watched the older brother watch the tv. Then, as if deciding that a thing like this was enough to get annoyed at, Jabez turned to Seth with his hazel eyes and asked simply, "What?"

Seth looked away and didn't answer the young man for a little bit. Until he finally got up the courage and said, "Well...I guess...I was just thinking that...you would...you know...know if that was the right amount of blood or not."

Jabez looked at his brother as the detectives on tv came to the scene of the crime and started talking about what might had happened. There was silence between the brothers for a beat or two when Jabez asked at length, "Why, because of what happened that night?"

Seth looked away and bowed his head, wishing that he had never brought the subject up. Jabez was, of course, referring to that incident a year ago when the whole family had been camping. Jabez had brought his girlfriend along; "So that things would be more interesting," as he put it. Sadly, one day when the two went out into the woods for some hiking, they came across a mother Ursaring and her baby Teddiursa. Since their family had never been into Pokemon and they never ahd one around them, the young man and his girlfriend were defenseless. Both tried to run away but Jabez tripped and fell down a short hill into a small hallow that had been dug out by some other Pokemon before hand. The young man was stunned and just before unconiousness over took him, he saw the Ursaring slash at his girlfriend with her huge claws. After wards, a search party found him and brought both him and his now dead girl friend back, though not before seeing the gash in her now still chest.

Silence filled the space between the two brothers as they reflected on that time. It was Seth who had found his brother first and got the other party member's attention and he also saw what became of the girl. Since then, Jabez to be more and more interested in bloody films and shows, even books, while Seth did all he could to keep away from things like that.

The detectives were now in an abandon house where they thought the undead girl was hiding out. As they moved, a Gengar went into one of the detective's shadows and that detective started to walk slower and slower then his partner, who didn't see what was happening.

"You know..." Jabez said just as the one detective pased out from exhaustion, "there's been something...I've been meaning to say about that night. Something...that other's don't know about."
Set looked at his older brother. "What do you mean Jabez? Did you see something? Like...a ghost maybe?"

Jabez grunted. "Nah, nothing like that. Actually...the story I gave you guys...wasn't completely true. I kind of...glossed over some parts..."

"What...?" Seth asked his eyes wide.

"Well...you see...it wasn't actually a Ursaring that killed Julie, my girlfriend," the young man said, his eyes still on the tv as the detective desparately tried to shoot at the ghost Pokemon now surrounding him.

"Wait...if it wasn't the Ursaring," Seth said, his mouth moving around the words as if they were something foreign and un wanted, "then...what was it?"

Jabez turned to Seth and a slow grin spread across his face. On screen, the detective let out a loud scream as what used to be his partner rose up and tried to shoot at him, eyes red and burning.

"Come on Seth, you aren't that stupid," Jabez said, reaching into his pocket and pulling out his hunter's knife he always carried around him. "Think about; who was the only one around Julie when she was murdered? Who was the only one that was anywhere close to her? Plus you saw the wound, there's no way that a Ursaring would had done that little of damage. Not to mention she probably would had eaten Julie. "

"S-stop it Jabez," Seth said, wrapping his blanket tightly arround him and moving to the corner of the couch. "This isn't funny."

"Oh, I'm not trying to be funny," the older brother said, his grin growing and moved to Seth. "I'm telling the honest to goodness truth. After all, why would I joke about comitting bloody murder? As to what you said before...I do so ever know how blood flows from the body once a door has been opened for it." He let out an evil chuckle. "Of course, now that I've told you this, I guess I'll have to kill you to keep you quite."

Just as the detective let out yet another scream as the girl from before appeared, the tv and lights in the room flickered, showing hints of red in Jabez's eyes. Seth let out his own, childish scream and tried to get away, but his feet got tangled in his blanket and he feel with a loud thump onto the floor. The boy turned around deperately to try to get out of his own trapped web. By this time, the tv and the lights were back to normal and when Seth looked around, he saw Jabez give a sigh and put his knife down on the couch.

"Geez, relax will you," Jabez said with sigh, as the dective in the movie jumped out a window and ran away from the house. He was now on the edge of a forest, panting deeply and in relative safety. "I'm just messing with you."

"That wasn't funny Jabez," Seth said as he finally kicked his blanket off of him and climbed back onto the couch. "I was really scared..."

Jabez just grunted and continued to watch the movie. Seth stuck his tongue out at his brother and turned to watch the movie as well. Right now, a Gastly was floating behind the now lone detective and gave a wide grin. Other ghosts hid in the shadows of the forest and the silhouette of the girl who was murdered could just be seen.

"Actually, Jabez...I have something to say about that incident..." Seth said, looking down so that his medium-length brown hair covered his eyes.

"Seth, please, there is nothing that you can say that can scare me," Jabez said with a sigh and smoothed his own brown hair. "Please, save yourself the trouble and just stop right now."

"But...I'm not trying to do to you what you did to me...this is real..." Seth said, fidgetting on his seat. "Because, you see...I was actually following you two..."

Jadez snapped his head around to stare at his brother, his eyes wide. The detective in the movie also turned around when he heard a branch snap behind him and looked around. "What are you talking about Seth?"

"I...I was really mad when you wouldn't let me come with you on your hike," the boy said, "so...I followed you guys. I was real sneaky and all, you didn't even notice me. Then you went to that dark area in the woods. You know? The place that looks like it's always night there? Well, I saw you and Julie go in there and I followed you."

By now, the ghosts had shown themselves to the dectective and started circling him. The detective was able to break away, however, and started a mad dash through the woods. Jabez's hazel eyes grew even more as he listened to what his brother was telling him. "Wait...so you mean you were there when we...?"

"You and Julie went off to a little corner in the area," Seth continued as if he had never stopped. "You lowered Julie to the ground and then you started making these really weird noises. I was really, really scared Jabez...it was dark and all these really weird noises including the ones you two seem to be making...and it was so cold..."

Jabez, who had been gulping this entire time, wondering what other kind of damage he had done to his little brother, but then blinked when he mentioned how cold it was. Sure, it had been cool that day especially in that dark area, but it was by no means cold. "Whoa, back up there Seth, what do you mean it was cold?"

Seth let a small grin cover his face and bent his head lower. "Yes...it was cold...so cold out there. But this body...this small, frail, scared body was warm, so very warm...It was such a nice change."

On the tv, the detective had just reached a dead-end. He turned around to see the girl from the begining, surrounded by ghost Pokemon of every kind, slowly stalking towards him. Jabez slowly brought a foot onto the couch and place a hand on the furnature as well, near to the knife. "Oh okay Seth, you're doing great. You're really freaking me out. Now, why don't we just cut this out and finish watching the movie, okay?"

Seth's grin grew, looking much like the girl's grin in the tv. "You don't remember what happened after you had your fun, do you? It's all blank. You just remember waking up in that hallow outside of the dark area with me looking over you. Oh, and what the girl looked like after I pointed her out to you. As to what you said before...I do know that a Ursaring would had made a much bigger gash then that. No, a gash like that...would had beenn made by a knife. A knife...well, like the size of the one you're now reaching towards."

Jabez lunged for the knife just as the detective started shooting at the still slowly advancing undead girl. The young man was only able to barely wrapped his hand around the handle of the knife when Seth suddenly tackled him to the ground. The breath was knocked out of the older brother and he looked up to see glaring red eyes framed by brown hair and above a wide grin. The thing that looked like Seth kicked Jabez in the groin, causing him to cry out in pain and let go of his tentative hold on the knife.

Seth jumped off of Jabez and grabbed the knife. It turned around and was about to thrust it into the young man when Jabez slammed a right hook into the side of his head. The thing that used to be Seth hit the ground hard and rolled a bit. Jabez quickly got up and was about to kick the body when it started to cry.

"Jabez, what was that for?" Seth whimped, lifting his head and looking up at his older brother with watery brown eyes. "Wha...what happened? I don’t remember...I just know we were talking and watching a movie when...everything went dark." More tears came to the young boy’s eyes. "I...I don’t know what happened! Why did you punch me!?" By now he was bawling.

Jabez sighed and walked over to his younger brother. On tv, the detective was able to shoot the possessed girl right between her eyes, causing her true colour of her eyes to flash for a split second before she fell down. The ghost Pokemon disappeared and the dectective slowly walked over to the girl.

"Here...let me help you up," Jabez said as he went down on one knee and held out a hand to the still down boy. "I’m really sorry about that. It was just a misunderstanding, I swear."

Seth sniffed a few times lifted a very shakey hand towards his brother’s large one. When he placed the small paw into Jabez’s, he suddenly grabbed with a strength not like his own and, jerking forward using this grip to get momentum, thrust the knife into Jabez’s heart.

Jabez let out a gasp at the same time the detective did when the girl suddenly got up as he reached her and punched a fist through his chest. This gasp was interrupted but a gurgle as blood entered his lungs and spat out of his mouth. He then fell onto his side, his body completely still. The last thing he saw was blood red eyes and the last thing he heard was a vile laugh.

The thing that had taken Seth’s continued laughing for some time until he finally got tired of it. Then, it went over to the corpse and pressed a loving hand to the now cold cheek, with a face like that of a new mother looking upon her baby.

"Finally I got you," it said, stroking the cheek lightly. "It took me almost a year to finally get that boy’s conscious out. To be honest, it probably would had taken me longer if you hadn’t scared him so much just a little bit ago. Thanks so much for that. I hope hell will treat you well." It slowly got up and turned around. "Now, I just have to get good ol’ mommy and daddy, then I can move on to-"

The thing interrupted itself with a gasp as it felt something enter its back. Looking down, it saw the same hunting knife it had just used on Jabez sticking out from its heart. With wide eyes, he turned his head to meet blood red eyes much like his own. Another gasp came through its mouth, along with some blood.

"Master Gengar...but....why..." it asked, the light in its eyes losing intensity as its life forces was slowly being drawn out.

"This is too much, Brother Haunter," the Gengar that had taken over Jabez’s body said. "Not only have you taken the body of one of the living, but you use it to kill. Which wouldn’t be too bad if you actually took some time inbetween the kills. But no, not even a year has passed since your first kill and now you are already ending another’s life. this is unacceptable. Good-bye, dear Brother Haunter."

The Haunter that had taken over Seth’s body wanted to say something, but the blood now coating its lungs and mouth. In a few seconds, the body was still and the Gengar let go of the knife, watching impassively as the body fell. With out a word, Jabez’s eyes returned to their hazel colour and then that body, too, hit the floor.

On the tv, the detective’s body also hit the leaf covered forest floor. The girl slowly got up and looked at the body. She then turned to the camera, where the two brother’s corpses watched with dead eyes, and gave a wide grin.

"Happy Halloween kids, and remember, always watch your back," she said, then laughed as the credits started to roll.

Please Read





The short version:

KEEP OUT




The long version and explanation of this is as follows:




Readers, heed this message well – the house beyond this very notice is not the place to visit.

Now, we assure you this is no joke that it is, as you say, haunted. We fear even saying that will only strengthen the urge for you to go ahead and figuratively press that ‘please kill me’ button by visiting the place, but we just feel you’d want to know beforehand. The following involves rambling, but we just wish to give you some idea of what goes on there.

This is not your ‘Old Chateau’ either, where the scariest thing you’ll find is a lonely Rotom with self-esteem problems and some ghosts more interested in floating through walls than anything else. No, this one comes with a death count.

No, it is not ‘over nine thousand!!!1!!1’, as we’re sure some of you are oddly tempted to stupidly ask. It’s growing in number though – most that enter do not leave.

Well, maybe if you’re a girl (and we assure you, by ‘girl’ we do not mean ‘pansy’ or ‘sissy’ or the like, but a female human being) then you may be safe (usually), although visiting still is not recommendable. The stench tends to put off most anyway. No – if you are a male trainer, then this message goes out to you. And we don’t mind the decent ones (we believe there are some of you that exist...or hope), but the overly curious who are judged to be ‘impure’...don’t expect mercy from the judges. Trust us on this one, although you are free to try your luck. We’re just tired of watching one after one enter the doors time and time again never to leave, but we guess it says something about you males. Pah. But we’re sure certain beings could argue that the world improves with each one of you removed – you’d be surprised.

Take... Jason, a fellow who tried his luck. We suppose it is the same for all of you trainers – you enter the nearby town, overhear a gossip or two, a tale here and there, and before you know it you’re informed by the gym leader that ‘that dusty old place is strictly off limits to all’. You may even have encountered the village crazy, who was said to have been the only one in living memory to make it out of the fittingly-named ‘Home of Death’ - alive. Not that he’d shed much light on the issue – according to dear Jason here who encountered him personally, the hobo had been reduced to ranting at any visitor to his humble garbage dumpster with ramblings about his 'Annoying Orange' before trying to get you to shake hands with ‘Steve the Marshmellow’ ever since his visit. Oh, and Jason also seemed to have taken particular care in remembering that he smelt of cheese.

Believe us, Mr Crazy-Man got off easy.

However, such facts seem to have encouraged Jason and the others to come in droves rather than keep them out, one by one trying to sneak into the building late at night (something about daylight not making it ‘scary’ enough), attracted to the place like moths to a bright light.

He got past the first obstacle easily enough – a silent army of trees that stand around the house. He made his foolish Pokémon cut one down and easily stepped past, not thinking how anybody else could have gotten in without removing a tree before. He did however become a bit suspicious when he later looked out from a window within the large home, only to have seen the tree having regrown without a hint of so much as a missing branch or leaf. He thought Sudowoodo are very common creatures or something stupid like that.

No, instead Jason made the mistake of looking through things that wasn’t his. Reading through old diaries, smirking at an old wardrobe of clothes (and daring to mess up the stack) and investigating himself in a dusty old mirror for starters. We don’t know, maybe he thought there was a chance he’d score or something in the nearby future to justify combing his hair right then and there.

Then again, he was not far off the mark. You see those who anger the hosts by prying too much end up spotting another visitor. And so Jason observed a most shapely female, who giggled and moved out of sight into an adjacent room he hadn’t noticed before. Of course, like so many before him, Jason followed.

Clearly not thinking why she floated into the room rather than ran.

But... we guess the less stupid, selfish people remaining, the better. Why, it’s almost like a service being done to society. (No offence, Jason, but you did think with something else than your head when you saw her).

Of course when that fact crossed his mind and he thought ‘hang on maybe following what looked like a ghost to me might not be the brightest thing to do’, it was too late. We’d spend more time to detail the sight that lies in that room, like the rotting corpses, and the smell, and the buzz of flies resting on the meat – Jason particularly remembers the flies, it seems – but we suppose that would give you the basic gist of it. Not a pretty sight according to Jason.

Nor did the girl ghost appear beautiful to him when it turned around – there was something about the lack of face that suddenly put him off. He’d have screamed right then and there, but for the most part he was frozen in place. Not just out of fear, but due to the ghosts that suddenly sprung him from behind, took control of his body and examined his memories. Imagine an unknown presence suddenly slip into your conscious, seize control of your movements and suddenly your entire life is shifted through methodically. Jason didn’t enjoy that.

Unfortunately for him, while he stood there helplessly, he was found to be...impure in thought, in memory, and in past deeds, and so he unceremoniously joined the bodies. It’s very easy to kill when you’re a ghost.

In case you are currently wondering how Jason could possibly tell us all this after being, you know, dead, well we strongly advise you to ignore the above and come visit us – you’re not bright enough to be likely a nice well-meaning person, fit to keep living. Speaking from experience, of course, and there’s always exceptions.

Yes, this warning comes from us, the hosts. ‘Oh, how horrid’, you may cry. We have our reasons – after all, we even make sure people like Jason know ‘why’ just before the fateful moment (hopefully no future ones would have read this message first). We used to be a merry bunch, living with our trainer. A sweet soul, she was, if a little dim-witted. She failed, after all, to see what a back-stabbing murderer he was. Our first victim was probably the most deserving, after he left her lying in the mud with a knife in her back. We had seen through his false pretences of ‘love’ and ‘romance’, but she fell for it, and our warnings had failed – she died, and shall remain so evermore.

We do not recommend trying to seek retribution against what we have done to these young men – believe us, we know them better than you do (and you won’t fair much better anyways if you try to remove us). Each and every one we killed was a nasty piece of work who’d sooner take advantage of someone than give the time of day. You might not be able to guess which one of your friends would, say, stab you in the back, but we can. And there’s a lot more of them than you may suspect.

Besides, the girl ghost is only set on those we believe to be impure (and only those with impure thoughts find themselves unable to resist following, as is the nature of our trick), and we make sure to examine each and every fibre of their thoughts and memories before dealing with them, just to make sure. Sure, we were incorrect about Mr Crazy-Person (I believe his name was James) – he was a fine person after all, who didn’t bear any resemblance to him in character or personality, but we did let him back out with his limbs intact, after all. Not our fault he left his sanity behind. Consider him an example of what could happen, if he still is among the living when you read this.

But why do we do this, and why this notice we put here? Partly because we want peace. We don’t mind having to kill – we’re quite good at it, and when you’re a ghost Pokémon, you don’t really care much about delivering death to others anyway. Our anger knows no bounds if you intrude. But we much prefer nobody disturbing the old residence of our beloved trainer. She deserves just as much, and more. Such a sweet soul. But you don’t seem to understand it. You keep coming, trying to poke and pry. And previous ‘rumours’ made about this place only made it worse. Some visitors we just scare off, but those we have suspicion over, or those who pry too much...you get far more scrutiny. Yes, it is males we despise, and we may be ‘sexist’, but we have our reasons, perfectly backed up by a few trillion ill-gotten thoughts of people that should never have come into this world. Many more of your gender has wronged others before.

So we repeat – if you value your life, please don’t enter our home, deep in the forest. Let us be.

Mind you, we’re not the only place to avoid if you are impure of mind, and certainly not all such places come with warnings. But we’ll leave that to you to figure out. Paying attention to ‘Keep out’ signs is a good start though...

Grandfather's Tale
Grandfather’s Tale
By A Typhlosion
I remember one Halloween, when I was a Cyndaquil, my father took me and my friends, Totodile and Chikorita, trick-or-treating. After we were done, my father was pretty irritated, which is understandable–after all, he had just spent the past few hours walking us around the neighborhood, stopping us from going back to houses that gave us rare candies and from setting fire to houses that only gave us berries.
So while we were walking away from the last house (two Oran Berries each), he gave us an ultimatum.
“All right, come on. We’re going to Grandpa’s house for a visit.”
“I don’t wanna go to Grandpa’s house!” I cried. “He’s got all these scary paintings on the wall and he always tells me how much better things used to be and the whole house smells funny!”
“Don’t talk about your grandfather that way. We’re going to his house whether you like it or not.”
“But the smell–“
“Shut up about the smell! Your grandfather is old and it’s not his fault he can’t always control which end his flame come out of!”
Chikorita and Totodile giggled. I decided to play my trump card.
“But Chikorita and Totodile are with us, and Grandpa hates strangers!”
My dad didn’t even look around.
“I called him earlier and he said it was okay!” He paused. “Actually, what he said was ‘the little buggers better not drop any candy wrappers on my floor or I’ll show them what we used to do to bug types back at the Academy,’ but he meant that it was okay.
“Now, we’re here! I want you three on your best behavior!” He knocked on the door, and a large pendulum swung from the ceiling of the veranda, and it was only because he ducked at the last second that my father didn’t get decapitated.
A few seconds later, the door was answered by my grandfather, an elderly Typhlosion whose flames were flecked with silver.
“Oh, it’s you. Next time, use the secret knock.”
Dad bristled.
“Dad, the secret knock is 57 knocks long and you always say I never get it right. Anyway, it’s Halloween! Don’t you know that kids will be coming to your door?”
“Why do you think I put that thing up? Dang kids think that just because it’s Halloween I gotta give them candy. Lemme tell ya, back in my day if we wanted candy we had to cut lawns to get the money. And it was better candy, then, too, none of this high fructose–who’re these kids?”
Dad sighed.
“I told you, they’re your grandson and his friends, remember? I called you!”
“None of these kids is my grandson! My grandson’s a Cyndaquil, like a proper Pokémon!”
“He’s dressed as a Moltres for Halloween. Now, I’m going to leave them with you, okay?” He ushered us into the house. “I’ll be back for them in a few hours.” He walked down the path and started to head back to my house.
“Hours?! What the heck am I supposed to do with them for that long?”
“I don’t know! It’s Halloween, tell them a scary story or something!”
Grandpa closed the door, and we were alone with him.
Several seconds passed while my friends and I tried not to look at the paintings hung all over the room. Then Grandpa coughed.
“So,” he said. There was another pause while he appeared to be trying to figure out what you’re supposed to say to children. “So, what are you doing in school these days?”
“We’re studying weather effects, sir,” said Totodile.
“WEATHER EFFECTS? Lemme tell you kids, in my day weather was real weather, not this modern stuff. Hail was the size of golf balls, and if you battled in it then the next day you looked like you’d gone fourteen rounds with a Hitmonchan. Now follow me into the living room.”
We followed him in silence down a dark hallway into a room lit only by a few dim candles.
“Now sit down in front of that chair while I make a phone call, then I tell you a story.” He walked out of the room.
Chikorita stared at me. “Your grandfather’s weird,” she said.
“Yeah,” Totodile agreed. “My grandpa’s not like that. My grandpa spends most of his time looking for his glasses so he can get to the diner in time for the early bird special.”
Grandpa returned. “Now quit yer yapping while I tell you a story!” he said as he settled into his chair.
“Now, there were once three Pokémon children, just like yourselves, who were never afraid of anything. One day, an incredibly wise, extremely handsome Typhlosion told them to stay away from the Ruins of Alph, because the Unown there had sinister powers and could trap you there forever.
“’Hahahahah!’ said the kids. ‘I’m serious,’ replied the Typhlosion. ‘If you go in there, the Unown will appear and trap you there forever!’”
“The kids skipped off laughing. One of them said ‘Let’s go to these ruins. I’ll bet it’s really cool!’”
“Hang on a second,” said Totodile. “There’s an Unown in one of my classes, and he doesn’t have any sinister powers! But he does have to use eye drops once an hour or his eye gets all crusty and red and starts oozing this–”
“Shut up and listen! Now, when these kids got to the ruins, they started to have second thoughts. ‘Looks pretty spooky,’ said one of them.
“’What, are you SCARED?’ said another. ‘No!’ replied the first. ‘Then I DARE you to go in!’ Well, of course he couldn’t back down now that–“
“Wait, that’s not right,” said Chikorita. “You can counter a regular dare with a double dare.”
“That’s right,” I said, nodding. “If you want a BINDING dare you gotta go up to triple DOG dare.”
“Fine! ‘I TRIPLE DOG DARE you to go in!’ You happy now, you little brats? Now stop interrupting!
“So the three of them went into the ruins, and when they had gone a little way, a huge stone fell from the ceiling behind them, blocking the way out. ‘NOW what are we gonna do?’ they said to each other. ‘How’re we gonna get out?’”
“They should look for the directory,” said Totodile. “My parents told me that if I ever get lost in the mall, I should look for a directory and go where it says I can get help.”
“THERE IS NO DIRECTORY! It’s ancient ruins, not the mall! Now, where was I? Oh yes.
“They then saw carvings in the shape of Unown on the walls. ‘Escape,’ read one of them. ‘Great!’ said another. ‘That means there’s a way out!’
“’Wait…’ said another. ‘It looks like some dirt’s covering up some writing above it…’
“So they got on each other’s shoulders and wiped away the dirt, revealing the word ‘No’.
“They suddenly became aware of thousands of Unown eyes around them, get closer and closer… And they felt another presence behind them. They turned around slowly…”
We heard some steps from outside the door, so we three turned around, too.
There was silence for a moment.
Someone coughed behind the door. Someone said, “Uh, should I come in now?”
“Dagnabbit, Slowking, I told you to come in after I said ‘turned around slowly!’”
“Sorry!” A Slowking dress in a rather sloppy Magikarp costume entered the room.
“Slowking, I told you to get a SCARY costume! Why are you dressed as a Magikarp?!”
“Well, everything else at the costume shop was really expensive! I mean, the Mewtwo costume cost forty bucks a day to rent! I wasn’t gonna pay that just so you could scare them! You owe me ten dollars for this as it is!”

Later, when my Dad picked us up, he asked us if we had a good time.
We looked at each other.
“We don’t wanna go trick-or-treating with Cyndaquil again next year,” chorused Chikorita and Totodile.
“Thanks, Dad,” I muttered.
I got back at him, though. The next time he saw Grandpa, he would be treated to a long lecture on what’s wrong with today’s youth, because I had left a dozen candy wrappers under Grandpa’s kitchen table.

The Curse of the Old Chateau





“Anyone who dares to intrude in the Old Chateau shall be cursed…the victim’s spirits dwell in it to this very day…”

I was, back then, just your average teenage boy, living an ordinary lifestyle with a very normal obsession to Pokémon games…that, like most clichés, would have his whole world turned upside down by the arrival of one, single package.

“Edward! A package for you! Come down and get it, already!” My mom yelled. I ran downstairs. Arriving at the door, I saw an annoyed face plastered onto my mom’s face. It was currently glaring at me. My mom asked, “Ed…did you spend your friend’s allowance to buy this junk again? You seem to do that all of the time lately…your allowance hardly dropped!”

Confused, I looked at the package. It was wrapped in plain red wrapping paper. The object it coated was, undoubtedly, a DS game. On the wrapping paper, there was a tag showing who sent the package.

I shrugged. “I didn’t bl-make them buy anything this time, mom…I swear.” After a quick glaring contest, mom gave up and sighed. “Well, then…”

I took the package and ran to my room. When I looked outside my window, I saw that the sky was starting to get enveloped with murky shades of grey. Talk about creepy…it was clear just a few minutes ago, for pete’s sake!

I opened the gift, to see…black. Again, I was dumbfounded. I took out the whole box and scanned it. Completely, utterly black. Not even a barcode. I opened the box, and, sure enough, a DS game stared out at me. It was a “Pokémon Diamond” game, which weirdly was printed on a red background.

“It’s those fake games, right?” I wondered out loud. “Those games that people try to copy and mass-produce illegally, but fail…”

I put the game into my DS, then turned it on. Strangely enough, the game went right to the opening sequence of the game, showing the poor Dialga all messed and glitch. When the menu screen came on, I saw the CONTINUE option shining out at me. The save file had its trainer be named, “PASS THE MESSAGE” in bold, capital letters. I frowned. If memory served me correctly, up to seven letters were used for your name. What a stupid hacker. I pressed the “A” button on CONTINUE. The screen went black, then showed a very familiar scene: inside the Old Chateau. I turned to leave, but, I decided, since I was here, I might as well check out the ghosts, right?

The man/butler was my first choice. I walked up to the statue and examined it. Instead of the usual “glaring eyes” bullcrap, I saw something creepier…

“Do not intrude. You have been warned…”

I stared at the message, then shook my head. The creator of this hack seriously needed a break. Did he make this game to scare other people, or something? Sighing, I proceeded into the dining room, and saw the man/butler stare at me, then float eerily towards the kitchen, as always..

“Calm down, Edward…it’s just a stupid game made by a stupid hacker…why are you so nervous…”

I walked my character upstairs to the room where the little girl ghost could be found. When I was about to enter, another dialogue box appeared. It said:

“Do you really wish to go on? You can still turn back…” A Yes/No box appeared. I smirked. The creator was obviously trying to scare the player. (*Crash* The thunder boomed. Way to ruin the mood, much?) I clicked “Yes”, then my character went inside. I saw the ghost girl in the other room. Then, something weirder than anything else today combined occurred. I still have nightmares about it.

She stared at my character, forget that a pixilated wall was between them. She blinked. Once. Twice. Then, she floated through the wall, and stopped right in front of me. The ghost then spoke hauntingly, “You have ignored his warnings. Prepare to face the consequences.” Man, when I said spoke, I meant that she was actually SPEAKING in her freaky little voice. Scary.

The ghost circled around, then sank. Right. Into. My. Character. Thunder was heard rumbling again. I heard mom dimly calling me and shouting, “Your dad and I’ll be going to the coffee shop, okay, hun? Just behave!”

My character started to move on his own. I quickly tapped the d-pad, but to no avail. I kept tapping it, hoping, somehow, it would respond. It didn’t.

I saw, helpless, as my character slowly stepped closer to the creepy-eyed painting. As soon as he stepped right in front of the painting, he stopped, and apparently, examined the painting, for the usually absent eyes were glowing a deep, bloody, red.

The painting spoke. (By then, I was scared stiffless. Lightning crackled outside. Oh, how I hated it.) It showed at the bottom of the screen what it said in bloody red. Even to this day, I still see those words swim before my eyes.

“Pass this game on. Or else, you will die. DiediediediediediediediedieDIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEE!” Then, suddenly, the screen went black, yet again. A few seconds later, a messy “squelch” sound was heard. The graphics were not needed for me to know what happened.

A few seconds later, a bloodcurling scream filled the air. It reminded me of despair and woe. But the scariest part of it all was the words it formed.

“DIE, Edward.”

A few days later…

I really wasn’t in the mood for school after that, so I stayed at home for a few days, passing it off as a headache. Heck, it could’ve really been a headache, with that stupid scream bouncing inside my skull.

I looked around the room, only to see that Alina was missing. Confused, I asked the person sitting right next to me why Alina was absent. He simply shrugged his shoulders and replied, “I dunno…when she heard a few days ago that you were absent, she paled and ran out of the classroom. She didn’t come back since. Even her closest friends didn’t know.”

Then I remembered. The tag on the stupid, scary game. There were two words on it:

From, Alina.


The Explorer Of Destiny

WHAT IS IT YOU DREAM ABOUT?

So it was the 31st of October once again.
I'm not really one for scary things, so I usually just go to my friend's houses to trick or treat, but this year, something odd happened...
After all that Robert buisness, I decided to stay away from second hand games.
*******
So I went down westfield derby (my local shopping centre) to a shop called Cex.
It's an exchange shop.
I thought it wouldn't hurt to look inside, so I had a look.
I looked, old wii games, old DS games.
I then saw a £2.00 Emerald game for GBA.
I was SO tempted.
In the end, I gave In and bought it.
********
When I arrived home, I stuck the game in my GBA.
I played all day with not one break, until 9:00.
At that time, I decided to turn the game off.
I flicked the power switch, but nothing happened.
I did it three more times.
Nothing.
I looked at the screen and it said, "Sweet dreams my boy....."
According to my mother, I then passed out.
It explains why I didn't remember much.
I woke up next morning to find a note by my bed
It said, "you are dying."
I went to my mirror and I saw it.
My face was all bloody.
I was dying.
What was going on, I didn't know, but soon, all would become clear...

Apparently I was taken to hospital, they said the only possible cause was insanity.
They couldn't decide what had caused my "insanity" but they (after questioning my mother) eventually found out.
I went to sleep later on and dreamt of a man.
A man that looked EXACTLY like the Robert guy I saw a while back.
He held a gun this time though.
With an angry look on his face, he loaded the gun.
He said, "You made me do this, you didn't understand my warning..."
He raised the gun to his head and as I stood there, helpless, he pulled the trigger.
I watched blood fire out everywhere and then I awoke.
At home.
I heard my mother say, "Get up Harvey!"
I got down from my bed and on my desk was an emerald cartridge.
I turned it over and on the back it read,
"This is Robert who has written this and one day,
this cartridge may be your survival.
I know there is something you have been dying to ask me.
Who am I?
The answer my friend is that you will find out very, VERY soon..."

I think the forum will still be available for event orgainsers like us.

Those are surely a lot of entries. We can safely conclude that the event was very successful. You guys must be having a tough time judging though. XD;;

Ya hybrid, I did make it for the competition.
Ok I shall make it better later

[Hybrid Trainer]

@Zappy: Yea that's fine, can't wait till we find out who won. I hope it's someone like forever :P
Plus, love the way my entry is at the top XD

It was hard, I had to read them twice just to remember which ones I had picked XD

XD Well you you were the first story through. And the ones who I picked for the top 3 I actually cried in part of their story or almost cried - Which is weird cause I'm a person who doesn't usually cry

[zoo3891]

I think that its a great story, But i'm guessing you wrote it solely for the competition no?
If i'm right i would re-write it because its got a great story line and has a good ending. It just seemed a bit rushed is all.

I don't really know what to say about your's "/
I'm not really sure what it is, is it real? because its very believable but its just not that disturbing, i know stories are starting to sway from creepy to upsetting but i think your moving a little bit to far away from creepy side.

Sorry, the story was disturbing for me a little, i just got a weird feeling of sadness when playing through the rom, I guess this would be like if someone posted a personal joke.

[[.εternity]]

Will the results ever be released? D: I can't wait to see who won!

[MasterSceptile]

Gah! First I enter a Creepypasta contest here on PokeCommunity, only to find that the host is not here anymore... then I find out that I missed the official one! *Shoots self*

Anyways, I might as well post this here, since (I can obviously guess) that the contest is no longer open to entries. :(

_______________________________________

We all know who Pokémon Trainer Red is. He’s the protagonist from the 1st generation games who becomes champion of Kanto only to wind up on at Mt. Silver in the 2nd generation, saying only, “…”. Now many say that he was always a mute, but that can’t be as he always called the name of the Pokémon he sent out into battle. Without those little details told, let this pasta began…

We all know the rumors of the mysterious things that are send to be hidden in Kanto, waiting for someone powerful enough to stumble upon it… or foolish enough. There once was a boy, and a very strong one at that, who stumbled into a land where he didn’t belong, and he paid the price.

He was merely walked down a typical route, when he stumbled upon a man. A man with a look without emotion, almost in a possessed trance, blood all over with gashes on his face. The man walked up to Red, placed a stone into his hand, and collapsed. He was dead.

Red, completely freaked out by this, ran away from the scene, though he still held the stone that the man had left in his hand.

After running for what seemed like forever, Red finally stopped to catch his breath. After a short break, he took a look at the stone in his hand. It had been stained with some of the blood of the old man, but what Red wanted to know was what the stone could do. He called out three of his Pokémon.

“Go! Venusaur! Blastoise! Charizard!” said Red, releasing his powerful creatures.

The Pokémon trio approached Red, as if they were immediately drawn to the stone.

“Hey, watch out guys. Who knows what this thing is.” said Red again, trying to figure out what the stone was.

The trio ignored him and continued forward. The stone flew out of Red’s hands and drifted in front of the trio, whom stopped as the stone hovered in front of their combined gaze.

Suddenly, all three Pokémon began to glow white. They were… evolving?

“What? No way! They’re already in their final evolution forms! What could that stone be doing to them?” said Red, who had so many questions, with so little answers; only staring at the sight of his evolving Pokémon. But these were no normal evolutions.

As the Pokémon finally became visible, Red did his best not to scream in terror of what had just happened to his companions.

Venusaur was no more. His entire body had morphed into something else. He now stood, what appeared to be, over 20 feet tall. His legs were now the size, and form, of trees. It stood with a long, green neck to stretch out, bearing a displeased face, with red eyes and hundreds of vines rising from its back.

The others were no better. They shared their 20 foot heights and their red eyes with each other. Charizard’s head had gained a third horn in the middle, which completely rearranged his face, along with large spikes on his back, which was completely on fire. Blastoise was the most intact, though he had gained two more hydro cannons on his back. Red looked back at the stone, only to see that it had exploded into a veil of mist, which floated away.

Beginning to panic even more, Red took out his Pokédex and pointed it at the beasts, only to receive static.

“Wha-what are you things?” said Red, frightened.

“We are those, whom you humans claimed, did not exist.” responded the trio, in booming voices that almost shattered Red’s eardrums.

Red was stunned by the fact that these “things” had just spoken back to him, but he was even more concerned with what they wanted.

“What do you want from me?” he said, weakly.

“…Revenge.” said the evolved Charizard, looking like it was ready to toast Red, right there.

The trio lifted Red with a psychic force and proceeded to rise off of the ground. Red, panicking, screamed out for help, feeling lucky that he had spotted an old man walking by. In fact, it seemed to be that crazy old man from Viridian City who was obsessed with coffee and catching weak Pokémon.

The old man did not response. In fact, it didn’t seem like he even noticed the 20 foot megaliths the stood right in front of him. However, before Red could finish his second call for help, the old man turned to stare up at him, with the same red eyes as the beasts.

Red whited out.

When he awoke, he found himself in a realm that seemed to be his world, but destroyed. Buildings were in pieces, the sky looked like static, and there wasn’t a soul in sight, not even his evolved Pokémon that brought him here.

“Whe-where am I?” asked Red.

Suddenly, there was a demonic chuckle and a twisted voice from what seemed to be a very close distance.

“Kekeke… our world.” said the voice.

Red turned in surprise, to find what looked like a walking corpse, the size of a normal human, but with giant needles for arms.

“They said that I was just a typo of another fake… They called us all fakes. Rumors. Myths. They never truly believed in us and would even mock anyone who did!”
continued the voice, growing ever more twisted.

Red was still growing confused, even to the point of insanity, whether it would be caused by his confusion or this strange creature.

“Who are you?!” Red snapped.

Before Red could even blink, the corpse had delivered a giant slash across his body, obviously fatal. However, he lived. As Red was screaming his lungs out, his body was rebuilding, painfully. Finally, it had been repaired, but by what?

Before Red could ask what had happened, though fearful of the consequence of another question, the corpse spoke again.

“Excellent. Much like us, you are in a world where you cannot die, however, you still feel all the pain you would normally,” the corpse began, “if not, even worse.”

The corpse stared at Red, who was now completely silent, and gave him an order.

“Come follow me, there is someone waiting for you Red.” spoke the corpse, in a very soft, wind-like voice.

Red was about to ask how this thing knew his name, but he was too frightened and proceeded to follow the corpse.

Eventually, they reached what appeared to be an even more grim section of the world, this dimension’s Lavender Town. The entire place was a mass graveyard.

They stepped forward to a grave stone that was much larger than any other. Red began to read the inscription:

Doomsday

‘What is that suppose to mean?’ thought Red.

Suddenly, the graveyard started to shake. A large figure began to rise out of the ground. The figure appeared to be a giant assortment of bones that formed some sort of head, but what shocked Red was this new creature’s height. It had to be at least 90 feet tall, but it was as transparent as a ghost.

“Master,” began the corpse, “I have brought forth this boy. He was sent here after he evolved some of his creatures with the Mist Stone.”

‘Mist Stone?’ questioned Red to himself.

Suddenly, the loud roar came from the massive beast, causing Red’s ears to start dripping blood.

“Is this one of those who called us fakes? Myths? Nothing but works of fantasy?!” the voice growing more annoying with every word.

“Indeed,” said the corpse.

The large creature, Doomsday as the grave stated, let out a demonic laugh, even more powerful than the corpses.

“Then I guess this boy wouldn’t mind knowing the truth before he is sent to his punishment.” said Doomsday.

“T-t-tru-truth?” said Red, stuttering his first words against Doomsday.

“Of course!” boomed his voice, “You probably believe that Arceus created the universe don’t you?”

“Well…” began Red.

“Of course you do! That’s what they tell you to believe, because he is the divine Pokémon, the Pokégod!” continued Doomsday, once again raising his pitch. I’ll tell you the difference between us and Arceus, kid. Arceus can be defeated, captured, and even used by morals. While we… we are INVINCIBLE! We can’t be captured because you morals don’t even acknowledge our existence!” finished Doomsday.

“But…” began Red, only to be cut off, once again.

Doomsday rammed one of its sharp bones, straight through Red’s body, knowing that he could recover, all just to make him suffer. Red winced, but did not scream, he couldn’t. He just let his body regenerate, once again.

“Enough talk,” began Doomsday, “it’s time for you to face your worst nightmare.”

Suddenly, other strange creatures began to crawl out of the ground. They grabbed at Red, who tried to run, but could not. He could not escape his fate. The creatures that grabbed at him where much like his Pokémon trio, as they seemed to be the evolved forms of other Pokémon, without evolutions.

Before he knew it, Doomsday tore a rift in existence which began to consume Red. Red fought with all the energy he had left, but was no match for that, which he did not understand. He closed his eyes and was swallowed up by the rift.

When he woke up again, Red was at the peak of a snowy mountain. In fact, for a second, he believed that he saw what looked like the Indigo Plateau in the short distance. However that all was wiped from his mind when he looked straight off the side of the mountain. He saw Doomsday, the corpse, his evolved trio, and many other creatures, some that were those that came out of the ground and others which he had not seen before. They were all laughing at him.

“Come follow me Red, and you can fulfill your destiny. Just come follow me.” spoke Doomsday, motioning Red to come to him.

Red, having lost all control of his body, ran right for the creatures. He jumped off the peak, lunging toward the beasts… who vanished. Red continued to fall, unable to unsee the creatures that now tormented him.

“Welcome to your new home Red...” began Doomsday’s voice, “You are ours now.”

Red found himself, no longer falling, but back on the mountain’s peak. He tried to speak, but nothing came out. He tried to leave the peak, but he could not. He was trapped on the mountain forever, and he could not leave. He was where his masters had put him, to live out the rest of eternity.

Many trainers came to face Red, all of which were vastly inferior to him… and yet they still beat him. It was that day, when the Johto boy beat him, that he truly knew what his punishment from the Pokégods was.

He was going to forever have to do the one thing that he had never done, nor wanted to do.

Lose.

…

He was destined to be the very best, now cursed to fail for all eternity.

@MSceptile: wasn't this posted on 6thfloor?

[MasterSceptile]

Indeed. 6th Floor, PokeCommunity (in that other contest that never had results), and just recently posted it on Bulbagarden.

Okay, this is already getting ridiculous. 10 days have passed since the contest ended, so that means that even if you did 2 fanfics per day you would have finished by now. It's not that I don't understand that you may be busy, but you shouldn't have chosen to host this contest if you knew you won't have time.

I keep telling Blaziquaza to PM me but he isn't.... I really wanted to get the results in before my exams next week.....

Well Zappy i say that if he hasn't got back to you by tomorrow we get Mod's involved and get him removed as a judge. We can just use your votes.
It's not like he doesn't have time, he's been asking questions over on fyeah and is apparently writing his own pasta, he's also found the time not only to sign up to my site but he's also made a starting thread.
He has time he's just not using it wisely ¬.¬


Oh and good luck with your exams ;P

...uhh what? It's not a staff issue. Zappy and Blaziquaza can work it out on their own, rather than anyone else getting involved. If they don't reach an agreement, Zappy can just submit her results but removing him as a judge? Even Jake (Hiroshi Sotomura) ain't gunna do that.

[Team Fail]

Ha. I found this:

This is a creative way to make a creepypasta. I wouldn't have thought of it.

[560cool.]

Okay, I'm subbing eternity. I'm also a bit annoyed, but reading through this thread I can see it seems to be Blaziquaza's fault.
I think that if he knew he'd be short of time, he should have just stepped down from this and let Hybrid or someone take over. I know I didn't win ; I'm just curious.

I don't get where your comeing from "/
Hee's not doing his job properly, if it were you that was avoiding your responsibility then you would get a good talking too and if you continued you'd probably get demoted right?
Then why isn't the same thing being done here?

Well it's a bit late to be getting a new judge in now. Unless they had already read all the entries and made a decision on points. Oh and btw it would have to be someone else, like The S or someone, who would take over because i already entered ;P

[Forever]

The thing is, I don't think any of the staff who aren't involved really care. :x Plus, the get together has ended already, so there's not much else that can be done besides someone saying "judge already", etc. You can't just take... away the responsibilities because noone has it atm? XD;

[Hybrid Trainer]

Well i see your point but i'd at least like this to be taken into consideration at the next get together.
It's just getting really annoying you see "/ it was a really big contest compared to some of the others so he's annoying more people than if he'd judged say the costume contest. (not saying the costume contest wasn't good tho :P)

[[.εternity]]

Blaziquaza told me he posted the results to zappyspiker, so it's only a matter of time until he logs in and finally announces the winners. Fingers crossed for everyone, and good luck!

[zappyspiker]

Ah, don't worry about it.

Yea, i guess there's no reason fall over this now.
The results are in either way :P

That should be enough. Who knows, maybe he was referring to a Sunday in 2011 or 2012.

[Hybrid Trainer]

Almost Monday now and no results.
♪Somebody's in trouble♪

And lol at above comment XD

[zappyspiker]

Sorry, haven't been on a computer all weekend.. currently on my phone to type this message. The results are almost done and I'm trying to get them in as soon as I can. It's just gotten harder since I've received Blaziquaza 's results late and it's gotten on top of my exams...

[Hybrid Trainer]

Excuses, Excuses, Excuses...
lol j.k, just get them here asap Kk.
Good luck with all your exams btw ;P

[[.εternity]]

Ladies and gentlemen, it's Thursday almost. Mind keeping us updated on the results?

[Hybrid Trainer]

To be quite honest if this goes on any longer i'm gonna loose interest in the whole thing and not bother to read the results or the winning piece.
probably resulting in me not putting them up on the site

[bobandbill]

Well it seems they were posted in a separate thread now, so yeah. About time it seems? =p

[GaXeL]

Hope it's not considered reviving cause I post like 3 months later...
But,did you guys read the kadabra one?

[Hybrid Trainer]

Well it does count as reviving dude so sorry but just so that people still have somewhere to go and discuss pokemon creepypasta heres a website where you can go to http://pokepasta.cz.cc
here you can comment on each of the creepypasta thats up and also submit creepypasta :)

Oh and if you mean the one with the tv thing yea I have read it.

[Hiiro]

Threads that haven't been posted in over a month since the last post date is reviving. So please, try not to revive threads over a month old. It's better to recreate the topic yourself than to open up an old one that's been considered dead for awhile now.
