I bet you wouldn't think of me being embarrassed if you bumped into me riding a huge Dragon snake after splashing away a bunch of Metapods and whatnot now, would you!

Don't worry Sven, there will be plenty of chances to mess up everything. I'll make sure to have options available.

1. Bug Pokémon? Butterfly net? Let's do this! 5 votes
2. There must be an excellent view if you climb in a tree. 1 vote
3. Forests are boring, quickly running through is the best option. 1 vote
4. Maybe going on adventure alone wasn't the best idea ever. Let's return home and watch television. 1 vote


I really like how the first four votes were all different, but then everything turned on #1.

Hyzenthlay May 6th, 2015 6:50 AM

Oooh, I could catch myself a cute little Sewaddle! Can't go wrong with #1, for sure!

P.S. Nice idea, HAN!

3. Gotcha!
Location: Bluestream Forest

As a Pokémon trainer, you gotta catch 'em all. Catching at least one is a good way to start. "Go, butterfly net!" you shout as you raise the net in the air, looking for the nearest butterfly Pokémon to catch. Sadly your war shout scared off most of the wild Pokémon, not that there were any butterflies anyway, but you notice a Venonat watching you curiously. (Is he laughing at you?) You remember it evolving into a butterfly, so the effect would practically be the same. You don't take the time to think and swing the net towards the insect, which swiftly dodged it. After two more tries slamming the net around the wild Pokémon, you managed to get it inside your net. In your enthusiasm, you broke the net's stick. But that doesn't matter, you finally have your first Pokémon! Now it's hoping it won't escape the net.
As you walk further, nothing important happens. Most Pokémon still seem to be hiding from you. A Caterpie camouflages itself between the leaves, a Spearow flies away above the treetops, a Venipede shoots away into the bushes. Not much later you see the exit of the forest, while still holding a Venonat in a broken net under your arm.

What do you do?
  1. Look for a small room to lock yourself into, giving no escape possibilities for Venonat.
  2. Who said I had enough already of that forest? Turn around and go back.
  3. There must be a PokéMart in the next town, supplies would be helpful.
  4. Now would be a great time for a picnic somewhere in the fields.
Additionally, you can give a nickname to the 'captured' Venonat if you want. Suggestions?


magicarp4thewin May 6th, 2015 8:16 AM

Hmmm #3 seems to be the obvious choice... But that's no fun lol. I'll vote #4 and use the power of food to bond with venonat

(Still think we should've went with the bucket for a water type)

Guardian May 6th, 2015 9:41 AM

No! You go back into that bush after the Venipede!
Also, doesnt Venonat fight back while you're carrying in a cheap netlol?
This is really fun, dont mind me protesting all the time :D

Also, is it just me or we never actually told anyone we went on a journey?
Also, how old are we?
Real me would probably have a snack, but the more real me would go back and find a Pokemon I'd be satisfied with.
Also can you provide us with some info like what season at time it is? :)

Anyway, I vote for 2, turn around and get something more. I actually dont mind Venomoth and Venonat despite the color, but we could use more Pokemon.

Percy May 6th, 2015 3:47 PM

Choice #3 for me!

Guardian May 6th, 2015 3:54 PM

Why do everyone wants supplies, are we a Pokemon trainer or a Traveling Vendor? :P
Unless we need pokeballs though...

Squirrel May 6th, 2015 4:47 PM

Venonat is cool, I vote #4 so we can make friends with him by offering food :D Not sure on a nickname yet though... how about Scrambles because they always look so confused?

Suicune May 6th, 2015 8:38 PM

4. Now would be a great time for a picnic somewhere in the fields.

I'm not sure if we remembered to bring any food with us, but a picnic would be nice for bonding, and maybe an encounter! Not sure about a nickname, hehe.

Don't forget the options are things you want to do, it isn't specified if they will succeed. Who knows, there might not even be a PokéMart in the closest town, or even a town at all. Or the Mart could be trapped or taken over by the local evil gang.

I really doubt how effective that would be, as it has a bottom. The water can't flow through and will partly push the water Pokémon out of the bucket instead of enclosing it. I think using a butterfly net would be more efficient. ;)

You clearly demanded for a Venipede, so I had to give one a cameo.

It's stuck, so it lacks the room to Tackle. And anybody should know that butterfly nets are super effective against bug Pokémon.

Doesn't that mean you got really into the story? I think that's rather positive.

-Well noted. You didn't tell anyone, but your parents will probably notice as soon as they get out of bed.
-I haven't really specified an age, but expect someone of about 12-16 years old.

This is the Pokémon world, there live Pokémon in other places too. And with "other places too", I mean like everywhere. What did you do in your playthrough? Sticking around in Viridian Forest because there still kept appearing other Pokémon and you got to catch them all?

Scrambles sounds good. :)
Other options are still welcome, then there could be a second poll regarding the name.

What do you do?
1. Look for a small room to lock yourself into, giving no escape possibilities for Venonat.
2. Who said I had enough already of that forest? Turn around and go back. 1 vote

Thanks. Then we might want to go back before we get grounded forever? xD

yeah, usually I do actually
Still, That's what I'd do irl probably, so there you have it :D

As for the nickname, we can call him (assuming it's a male), Bugger or Flyon (flying posion or somethin', I suck at creating nicknames tbh)

You were the only one who actually voted for returning home and watching television. (So in fact you might be the only one who was not messing up. :P)

Etherion May 7th, 2015 4:47 AM

There must be a PokéMart in the next town, supplies would be helpful.

Nickname suggestion: Creepy

Aslan May 7th, 2015 6:31 AM

I heard picnic and came running!

Going with #4! Who cares about bonding with Venonat when you could be stuffing your face with pizza, soft drink, cake, IKEA meatballs and RageCandyBars instead?

Omg this would be the most perfect picnic ever it sounds so wonderful ♥♥♥ There's no way Venonat could leave after trying some IKEA meatballs.

Lycanthropy May 7th, 2015 10:57 AM

As you can see, I experimented a little with the lay-out.

4. An early lunch
Location: Greenseed Town

You leave the forest and are glad you're back in open space. Even though you took a decent breakfast this morning you decide to sit down for a while next to the road and eat a bit of your lunch. During this, you have your attention focused on the Venonat, which seems really interested in your cheese sandwich. You break the sandwich in half and give half of it to your Pokémon, which calmly sits down and accepts it. Seeing him enjoying the meal, persuades you to remove the remains of the net and lift him on your lap. It seems you get along well. You think you should give him a nickname, but are out of inspiration for the moment. You're going to think about this later.
Following the road leads you to Greenseed Town, a farmer's town, famous for its Miltank ranch.

Where do you go?
  1. Pokémon Center, to get some trainer advice.
  2. PokéMart, to get some items.
  3. Miltank ranch, to check it out.
  4. The bakery, because food, that's why.
  5. Corn fields, to see if they obscure something interesting.
Secondly, what will Venonat's nickname be?
  1. Scrambles
  2. Bugger
  3. Flyon
  4. Creepy
Next update expected in ~23h.

Guardian May 7th, 2015 11:28 AM

Trainer advice? We dont need that, here is the advice, RUN! There are Miltanks out there! RUN, and DONT look back!

Lol, good job HAN on doing this btw, that...format you're using looks really neat. And your writing is really good too.

1. I just gave you one.
2.You seem to really want us to go get us some items. What are your hidden intentions?
3.See 1!
4.We just ate!
5.At first, no, cos bugs, but on the other hand, we could stumble upon another Venipede, or Pidgey or even some nice snakes so YES, this one gets my vote.

As for the names, I vote B or C

Suicune May 7th, 2015 12:56 PM

Although items would probably be good, I'm super curious about #5! Maybe we can find something (or someone) there that can help.

I also like the name A. Scrambles for Venonat. :)

Aslan May 7th, 2015 1:00 PM

Let's go to the corn fields! THERE'S FOOD AND MYSTERY COMBINED GUYS

For names, I vote A! Scrambles makes it sound like a cute egg.

Percy May 7th, 2015 4:32 PM

choice #1!
And for nicknames? I pick A.!

DyingWillFlareon May 7th, 2015 8:03 PM

Naturally, I'd go to the Mart, but I wanna see those darn cornfeilds! #5!!

And name Venomat B., haha, Bugger. X3

Meadow May 7th, 2015 8:10 PM

Hmm... The bakery, because food, that's why. With a PokéStory mindset, I think this is spot-on. ;P

And I personally think Venonat should be named Bugger. xD

Guardian May 7th, 2015 8:38 PM

If we include the Pokestory on this one, we can expect to see a wild Sandshrew in the cornfield that will immediately after we see it die, probably after being stepped on by a dancing Zekrom which also would conveniently appear right after we see a Nurse Joy chasing a Poochyena with a huge injection. And ofc Sandshrew would then be revived and join out team, and probably evolve into a Starmie.

HAN btw why dont you vote for next moves and nicknames too though?
