Staring blankly at the ceiling watching as the color outside my ball glowed brighter, I must be outside. My trainer threw my ball on the ground as the bright light embraced me and waking my eyes to see a beach with my trainer standing in front of me.

"Ziggy, we had some good times together.."

I knew exactly where this was going, he's going to abandon me like the stories I hear from the tall-grassers. If you can't tell Im a plain Zigzagoon. Im one of those Pokemon you'll come across if you just wander the forest with a couple PokeBalls, I remember grabbing my trainers sandwhich gobbling it up as he pet my head and thought I was friendly saying if I wanted to tag along with him. Shaking my head yes, he threw a plain Pokeball to my forehead as the gentle tap opened the ball and shrunk me inside. We knew each other for about a couple weeks. Fighting Pidgey and Rattata. Even challenging the first gym and unfortunetley fainting with the first attack. The new Pidgey he recently got laughed at my misery doing a much better job surviving the longest. That's because the only move he knows is 'Gust'. The Pidgey told me the trainer would most likely abandon me for an even greater Pokemon since only six can be with the trainer at the time, who came up with that rule who knows. Pidgey stayed in its ball I assume since its just me and my trainer.

"Im going to miss you, there's a trainer out there for you, which is why were going to the Pokemon Center", he held me in his arms as we walked out of the beach area into town. 'A new trainer' I thought.

In the Center as usual Nurse Joy and Audino were behind the desk only this time Im not here for a check-up, but to be sent away. There's a machine in the center that transport Pokeballs with Pokemon to one location to the next called the 'Wonder Trade Station'. My trainer gave me one last wave of goodbye then tapped the button on the Pokeball to bring me inside. Setting my Pokeball on a tray the machine started.

"Pidgey Im going to miss him", the trainer grew tears.

The machine shined sending the Ball through a portal and popping out a different PokeBall in its place. The trainer grabbed it curiously, wondering what was inside.

"{screams} It's a Mew! Best Trade Ever!"

On the other side…

A little dizzy my Ball got snatched from the tray quickly. The excited voice was not my previous trainer but a more sweet and friendly kind of voice, eager to see my new trainer, I tried pawing at the side of the Ball to try to communicate with the trainer to release me quickly. Sometimes the Pokemon inside can make the Ball shake from just nudging one of the corners. There was no shining beam of light taking me to meet my new master, instead I just heard distant talking with the Center's Nurse Joy and…Wigglytuff. I must be in another region.

2 Hours of sleeping in the Pokeball.

I was on my back being rocked back and forth by the ball moving in what felt like a car seat. Just then the car seem to park and I felt a new pair of arms grab the ball holding it with care and wrapping it in a warm fleece blanket. The heat transferred to the Ball a bit, depending on the PokeBall you can feel the condition outside, if you were in a regular PokeBall like me it would just be like the air crawling inside the ball, for example I can feel hot summer heat or shivering cold snow or rain. I heard the Luxury Balls were like Hotsprings for the Pokemon or like spas. The MasterBall, they say there's one and only one of its kind, but rumor has it there's several they made and gave them to specific people.

Most likely they might have been rewards that Proffesors gave to the best Trainer or a Scientist that just so happened to be studying it. But the PokeBall is….ok, I mean its kinds cozy but it does get a bit cramped when time goes by. Hearing noises all around me, clearly human, and by the smell there was no other Pokemon in the house. My Ball rested on a table as I started hearing small footsteps ring my ears, then seconds later the Ball's light dragged me once again outside. Opening my eyes seeing the smile of a young girl with a party hat wrapped on her head. I smiled back hoping to make a good first impression if this was to be my trainer or master. See when a Pokemon gets captured we sort of get mind controlled to obey the person that caught us. It's kind of a curse, you just hope your getting a great human being to be around and if he or she isn't a very nice person well too bad your stuck with them until they abandon you or trade you. What am I saying, Im overthinking things again.

"Hi there", the girl nuzzled her face against mine in a playful manner. Funny how my last trainer was more of a warrior type guy. Making me and my old buddy {if you want to call him my buddy} Pidgey like soliders running through dirty mud when the rain finally stopped and running as fast as we can through the fields of cut grass, that way we didn't trigger the common bumping into Wild Pokemon thing then our trainer would have to run to us to command what we have to do.

This trainer I have now seems a bit too sweet.

"Your cute, your face reminds me of a Halloween Pumkin smiling", the girl laughed.

My mind was wondering if that was a good thing or a terrible thing. See I knew humans had holidays but I had my last trainer for a short time so I never got to experience any.

"I will call you 'Pumkin' ", the girl leaped in the air.

And this is why I can't stand the fact humans give us nicknames. I heard other Pokemon called worse things, nowaday Pokedex's had an updated code to not allow our names to be too vulgar, but that sure didn't most most trainers. The room smelled nice and had the fragrance of something sweet, my nose couldn't help but point towards a huge cake on the table. She put me down shaking her head as if she knew what I wanted. The day went by fast people meted and greeted me and tossing me treats under the table, this was the life, a trainer that lives indoors and not in the wild. Sweet, not that I hate the wild but jeez all those battles and getting swipped with claws and electrocuted, it doesn't hurt too much for Pokemon but it still leaves a sting. Soon after all the guests from her party left and she picked me up and laid me on her bed next to some stuffed Pokemon toys like a Snorlex and a Gengar. I heard her brush her teeth then hop in the bed with me and instantly slept. Might have been creepy but I did watch her just sleep for a while. She didn't look like the type to be battling or even go for that eight gym badge quest, that would be way too dangerous at her age. Things might just be slow for a while, I don't know why but a small piece of me wants to battle again.
