... is like being slapped in the face with an old and very heavy fish. Insult and injury in one very smelly package.

So what do I mean by this? Well, there are a few key elements. Much of it is Nintendo's fault. To be fair, they're not entirely to blame. Just "mostly".

The Dream World has got to be the worst thing to happen to Pokemon since Mr. Mime. For a multitude of reasons.

The given theme for the story was "Cast Aside". The first thing that crossed my mind was a scene with Tinkerbell and Captain Hook in Disney's not-too-bad adaptation of Peter Pan. But, never mind that for now.

Below the story itself are some notes...

Pokemon.

Goodness, what a surprise, says the PokeCommunity at large. We were expecting it to be about marzipan. However, I'm going to be very specific with this one. This is about the two virtually exclusive natures of Pokemon which seem more or less at each others' throats, with two very different ideologies warring upon one another.
