//------------------------------// // Pinkie the Wonder Trainer (And Gilda the Douche) // Story: Pinkie Pie Nuzlockes Through Kanto! // by DarkAura //------------------------------// In Ponyville, five mares and one baby dragon rendezvoused at the outskirts of Sweet Apple Acres. They all stood in silence for a good five minutes before Applejack broke the silence. "'Ah don't know about you guys, but 'Ah can't seem to find Pinkie anywhere." The orange mare shook her head as she idly used one hoof to move a small pebble around. "That's why we're here, right?" "But of course!" Rarity replied. "It seems she's disappeared without a trace! We simply must find her!" "No kiddin'! Without her, Sugarcube Corner wouldn't be as awesome and pranking wouldn't be as fun!" Rainbow Dash said. Twilight was appalled. "Rainbow! We need Pinkie back because she's our friend and we're worried for her! Not for something you want!" Rainbow chuckled awkwardly. "Yeah, you're right. Sorry about that." Twilight let out an exasperated sigh. As she paced the dirt paved ground, everyone else continued to discuss amongst each other. One thing was for sure; Everyone knew Pinkie was in trouble one way or another. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "This is so COOL!" Pinkie raced across the entire room, checking out every little thing. After withdrawing a potion from her computer (which was odd enough), she trotted down the stairs and headed out the door, not even caring there was a woman sitting on a chair forever. Pallet Town was like scenery porn to Pinkie. From a Gamecolt, it looked all pixelly. But, with Pinkie inside the game, everything looked so vivid and clear. She could make out every detail; the daisies covered in pollen, the fresh smell of a new season, a slight gust of wind blowing in every direction. Simply put: It was beautiful. After spending almost five minutes admiring the beauty of Pallet Town, Pinkie headed for the tall grass. Right on cue, Professor Oak showed up. "Don't go out the- ... Oh Arceus, it's Red..." He sighed. "Just follow me, Red..." Obediently, she followed Oak into the lab. Oak's grandson was standing next to the table with Pokeballs, half-tempted to just snatch one, until he noticed his grandfather come inside. "Hey Grandda..." He stopped when he saw Pinkie. "Gramps! Why'd you have to bring Red here?!" The Professor sighed. "I don't even... Look, you both choose a Pokemon, got it?" Pinkie nodded her head rapidly, while Oak's grandson nodded hesitantly. "Can I please please PLEASE choose first?!" Pinkie begged. "Sure, sure, I don't care." Oak said. "WHAT?! Gramps! You said I could pick first! Why does HE have to get everything?!" Oak's Grandson whined. "Don't be such a whiny pants! I've played this game twenty times, I always go first! Oh, oh! Since you're such a no good whiny pants who says I'm stallion, I'll name you Gilda!" Pinkie giggled. "But my name's Ga-" "Ah, yes, I remember now!" Oak snapped his fingers. "His name is Gilda!" "I-you- GAAAH!" Gilda nearly ripped his hair out in sheer frustration. During that outburst, Pinkie nabbed the first Pokeball she saw and bounced out the door. "Let's see what Pokemon you are!" Pinkie said after she headed to the outskirts of Route 1. After about a half hour of trying to open a Pokeball with a hoof, she finally got it open. and what came out was... A Squirtle! "Yay! I'll name you Gummy, since you're sooooo cute and teethless!" She giggled as she picked the Squirtle up. "... What are you doing?" "Picking you up, silly!" "Aren't you going to ask why I can talk?" "Nope! Everypony can talk, and so can Squirtle like you!" Pinkie squealed. Gummy merely shrugged. "What now?" "We go to Route 1 silly!"
