Summary: An angsty kind of fic from the POV of a Muk that I keep in my
PC… thank Farla for this…I should stop reading her fics, they make me
depressed and I can't concentrate on my happy fics like CCA…
Disclaimer: Not mine. Never will be mine. Need I say more? Come on,
how many disclaimers have I written. I DON'T OWN POKEMON!
Title: Why me
She just won again. Seriously, why does she keep fighting the Elite
Four? Oh, I forgot. It's because she needs money to buy more vitamins
for her precious pokemon. But they're not for me. Because she never
gives me anything…
I remember when I first saw her cycling down on Cycling Road; with
six poke balls at her waist. She was fighting the Grimer around there,
with a Scyther. It was no contest, since the Grimer kept falling to
her Scyther's swift blades and sharp wings. Wing attack. Next pokemon
comes along. Wing attack. I think she was looking for Slugma, actually…
Feeling a need to protect my relatives, I slithered out and attacked.
Her _expression didn't even waver as she commanded her Scyther to use
False Swipe on me.
I was surprised. I still had 1 HP yet! An attack from that vicious
bug should have finished me off…
Then, she threw a Fast Ball at me. I broke out easily.
She tossed another one. Five Fast Balls later, she was starting to
look impatient. Her scyther was still very strong, as I had only
chipped off about 1/14 of its HP.
I used Smog and managed to poison it, but she healed it with a
Psncureberry.
She sighed and pulled out another ball. This one was pink. That meant
it was a love ball. I guess it made sense, since I was a female and
the Scyther was a male. This time, I didn't get out.
When I saw her again, it was only through the PC. She moved me to a
box marked `Venom', with other grass and poison type pokemon inside.
Then, she never looked at me again.
At least not directly… I see her often, going through the boxes. She
released Grimer and another pokemon, now I've forgotten what it was,
but probably an Oddish. Weezing she actually trained up from a Lv. 11
Koffing. But since I'm already evolved, I guess she doesn't need to
train me…
I envy them.
Her pokemon that she carries around all the time…
Why won't she use me in battle?
I've seen her records from beating the Elite Four, there's not much
to do in the PC, after all, but I can check what they say.
Suicune. Entei. Raikou. She uses them a lot, because they're the
legendary dogs. Actually, she usually doesn't use Entei, but it's
still an impressive level ninety.
Espeon. Umbreon. Flareon. Jolteon. Vaporeon. She seems to love the
eevelutions. Probably because they're cuddly and not like me… for
heaven's sakes, she has two of each eevelution already and five more
un-evolved Eevees waiting in her Egg-bred box!
Dragonair. Pichu. Persian.
Dragonair because its pretty and can learn a whole bunch of elemental
attacks, which I can't do. Actually, I can learn some fire and
electric attacks, but she's never bothered to teach me, probably
saving the TMs for pokemon she likes more…
Pichu because its cute. Oh, and that little bundle of Level 75 fur is
deadly! It knows Thunderbolt and Double Team, bred over from its
father, Raichu, as well as Rollout and Sweet Kiss. She can play the
paralyze/confusion game with it.
Persian is holding her Amulet Coin. Whenever she fights with it she
earns twice the money. It knows Dark, Normal, and Electric-type
attacks. Plus it can learn other stuff as well…
Lapras and Charizard.
Lapras is her Surfing pokemon, and Charizard is her Flyer pokemon.
She carries them around all the time and doesn't bother switching.
After all, they're on a high enough level to take care of the Elites
anyways.
Bellossem. Scyther. Pidgeot.
Bellossem is her HM absorber, as it knows both Flash and Cut. But it
can fight as well, putting its opponent to sleep before leeching them
with Giga Drain.
Scyther is her catcher. She uses it to catch new pokemon. Its False
Swipe can ensure the capture of almost any lower-level pokemon. It's
not fair. If I'd know I was going to spend eternity in this little
box, I would have enraged her so she would faint me. It would have
been better than this.
Pidgeot is her second Flyer. When Charizard needs a break, she takes
out Pidgeot and they go around, exploring.
Mew. Mewtwo. Articuno. Zapdos. Moltres.
These were traded from a friend. But I don't care. They don't seem to
mind sitting in boxes, since they know they'll be let out soon. Why
does it seem as if everyone else gets to leave, but I'm always stuck here?
Maybe even being a breeder like Ditto would be better.
I hate my life sometimes.
I check her stats, out of boredom. This time she took Aerodactyl and
a Poliwag she'd just caught. Why does she want a Poliwag? She already
has a Poliwrath. Will she release him as well?
Maybe being released would be better than sitting her forever.
I'm just a little ball in a big box. And I hate it.
Let me out!
Arcanine was let out, so he could breed with Ditto. He likes her. She
raised him up nineteen levels from a Growlithe.
Maybe I'm the only smart pokemon around here. Everyone else seems to
like her. Of course, they get vitamins and haircuts and berries and
Lugia knows what else.
Speaking of Lugia, he gets to leave and battle as well.
I HATE HER!
It seems like everyone else has been trained.
Oh, she's looking in the box.
Is she taking me out? Am I free now?
Apparently. She's pressing the Release button.
I sigh and leave. Finally! I'm free! And I hope I never get captured
again!
Nobody cares that I leave. Nobody waves; they're all curled up snugly
in their own poke balls, smiles on their faces.
Idiots. I'm ditching this group though. I pity them.
But what the heck, I'm out of here. Good-bye, trainer! I hope I never
see you again!
A Muk slithers off into the distance.
The End!
Drop me a review and tell me what you think! Flames will be used to
weld Destiny's armor.
