Another short humor thing. I'm sure something like this has happened to pretty much everyone who's ever played a Pokemon game. Hope you like. Based on Pokemon White.

WILD PANSAGE APPEARED!
"Holy s***!" I screamed, startled by the Wild Pokemon Encounter music. I think I startled away a couple Tympole, but I didn't care. I had Panpour and Pansear safely stored in PokeBalls clipped to my belt, and after three hours of running in circles around Pinwheel Forest I finally met the third one I needed for my collection. My goal was to complete the whole Unova PokeDex, and I couldn't do it if I only had the two. I could feel the adrenaline running through me as I unclipped a PokeBall. "I'm gonna make you mine, Pansage. Go, Pansear!"
And the battle began in a flurry of red and green, fire and leaves and monkey fur. I always got excited when encountering a new Pokemon, and I couldn't stop myself from cheering as Pansear's type advantage made itself obvious. "That's the way to go, Pansear! One more strike!"
Pansear leapt into the air and unleashed a blast of fire with its Incinerate technique. Pansage was left with the minimum HP to keep it from fainting. "Nicely done, Pansear," I said with a grin as the fire monkey landed gracefully by my side. "I can take it from here." It was time to make Pansage mine - as soon as I found another PokeBall.
Pansear looked up at me, slightly confused as I dug around in my pocket. "Hang on, I know I have one here somewhere..." I switched pockets. Nothing. I checked the pockets in my back. Nothing. "Okay, seriously, where are my freaking PokeBalls?" I muttered under my breath as I slung my bag off my shoulder and started digging through it. After a few minutes, I got mad and pulled out my identification device and opened up my inventory.
NO POKEBALLS.
I HAD USED MY LAST POKEBALL ON THAT STUPID THROH HALF AN HOUR AGO.
"Oh, for the love of Mew!" I screamed and threw my bag to the ground. "Of all the rotten -" And then I noticed that the Pansage had crawled away while I was distracted. It had escaped. "ARCEUS D*** IT ALL!"
