... Angel? Are You Sleeping?
Pinkie stood right at the edge of Viridian City, having only taken ten minutes to get through route one.
"Route one wasn't that super long, last time I remember it!" Pinkie frowned.
"Whadya expect? That's the standard size for routes." said Gummy.
She sighed. "Everything's just going really really weird!"
"How so?"
"Nopony's staying on script, the routes are longer, and I'm not a super itty bitty sprite thing!"
"... The hay are you smoking?"
"I'm not smoking anything! Why's everypony thinking that?" She stomped her hoof in frustration, then sighed. In a split second, her attitude turned perky so fast, it was scary. "Oh well, might as well have lots and lots more fun! And you know what reeeeally fun? Battling wild Pokemon! I really really wanna train you guys!"
Pinkie, Gummy, and Angel turned back to Route one, where a Rattata appeared. "Oooooh, let's catch it!" She said as she chucked a Pokeball at it. Much to her surprise, the Pokeball bounced off of the Rattata. "Huh? Meh, it doesn't matter! Let's faint it!"
"I'll do that, Pinkie. I'm only level two, you know. I need that training." He set his talons firmly on the ground as the Rattata sneered. "C'mon, I can take y-" It came so fast, he didn't even notice it until it was too late. The unexpected Tackle attack blew Angel twenty feet to a tree, which produced a loud SMACK. After two seconds, which seemed like forever, he slumped to the ground. He didn't move again.
"Holy-... Oh god, Angel?"
"Oh don't worry, ya little worryfilly! Angel's just sleeping!" Pinkie said, oblivious.
In two seconds, Gummy fainted the Rattata, and the two of them walked towards Angel. Pinkie bent down and lightly shoved at his slumped shoulders. "C'mon buddy, we gotta get going!" No reply. "I said come one, time's a'wastin'!" Still no reply. "... Angel? Are you sleeping?"
"Pinkie... He's not sleeping..."
"S-So... he's napping, right?"
"Uh... y-yes... He's in the middle of a very long nap... One that'll last forever."
"B-But..." She stomped her hoof on the tree right above Angel's body and cried. "H-HE'S NOT SUPPOSED TO DIE! T-This is Pokemon... Pokemon only faint... Not..." She didn't have the heart to say that word.
"Wait... Do you... Do you /not/ know about Nuzlocke Season?"
"W-What's that?"
"It's like hunting season, except Nuzlocke Season's where Pokemon die instead of faint, and Pokeballs only work on the first Pokemon of each route. That's why you couldn't catch the Rattata..."
Unusually, she didn't say a word. Her tear filled eyes turned to Angel's corpse, and she nearly cried even more. Shakily, she stood up and carefully carried the body a few feet away from where it was originally. She then dug a hole with her hooves, and then brought the body in the hole, where she put the dirt back on.
Gummy put a hand to Pinkie's shoulder. "If it's any consolation, he would've appriciated the burial."
Pinkie nodded and tried to smile, but a quivering frown was overwhelming it. "I... I hope..."
The two of them headed for the Pokemon Center and stayed there for the night.
(A/N: First death, and Pinkie has to cope with Nuzlocke season. Hope you guys like Chapter 4!)

1475444 What, why did you have to go and put THAT in there?!

*blink blink* Holy shit.
Umm... Brutal. But as someone who has struggled through a Nuzlock challenge, that's just how it goes...
But really. Holy shit.
oh god angel D:
1476819 Because it's a Nuzlocke, and, unless you take super good care of your Pokemon, you'll have deaths in it. I figured it was a good way for Pinkie to realize it was a Nuzlocke.
Don't worry, Angel's in a better place... and by that, I mean not heaven or hell.
1479086 Did you really have to include Creepy Pasta in this, in my opinion all he does is turn innocent games into nightmare fuel because some people get their sick kicks out of it.
1473962 I don't remember seeing that one, I only the saw other one on YouTube by the way.
1479216 That's not what a Nuzlocke challenge is about. It's about using Pokemon you wouldn't use and to grow a bond with them. Nobody wants their Pokemon to die; It'd just be a lot more sadder. But deaths will, nine times out of ten, happen in every run. I have not met a single person who gets a sick kick out of getting their Pokemon killed. You saw how Pinkie felt when she lost Angel; she was torn, she didn't get a kick out of it.
And a death isn't a creepypasta, as long as it's doesn't make a gut wrenching picture in your mind.
No...
Not Pinkie too...
She can't handle being apart from her friends. She won't be able to handle losing them forever...
