Skorupi lived in the forest. It was considerably peaceful, besides the bullying of Charmeleon and his cronies.
Charmeleon, Gligar and a Raticate always teased Pokemon they didn't like. Skorupi was one of them. And he ran into them today.
"Well, well, well. Look who's crossing our paths today!" Charmeleon said loudly. Skorupi didn't say anything but stare at them mildly. Gligar glided towards him. "Loser's gonna do something, huh?" He sneered. Skorupi wanted to Poison Jab Gligar in the face. But...it'll be a dumb thing to do. "Three against one, huh. Ganging up like that. What a fair game." Skorupi replied testily. Charmeleon stared me with one eye. "Hmmmm, it indeed is a fair play. I say, where are your friends?" Skorupi automatically looked around. "They're not here. Like I didn't know that." He said.
Charmeleon glared at me. "Look, you miserable scorpion, when I evolve, I will kick your miserable butt. Oh, wait. I can do that now!"
He fired a Flamethrower at Skorupi's tail. The little purple Pokemon winced in pain. But he was very angry. He couldn't hold it in.
"Look, I won't be taking useless insults from an obnoxious red lizard." Skorupi exploded. But so did Charmeleon. He grabbed hold of Skorupi's tail and a furious fire burned in his eyes. "You'll regret you ever lived," Charmeleon growled, and blasted him with a Fire Spin. Skorupi flew out of Charmeleon's grasp onto the ground. Then, Charmeleon fires again, and again. Skorupi can't handle it any more. It was burning, painful. He was on the edge of blacking out. Skorupi closed his eyes, but he heard a loud thump in front of him, and the three bullied fleeing.
Then, Skorupi blacked out.
"Hey, little fella. Wake up." Skorupi opened his eyes a bit. Where is he? And who's talking to him? Obviously not Charmeleon. But a large Drapion was looming over him. Skorupi would've screamed if it was anything else. "Who...who are you?" He asked weakly. "I saved you from those nasty Pokemon punks. You sure got toasted there." Apparently Drapion had taken Skorupi to the PokeCenter. "Well, thank you for doing so. I'm Skorupi. I'm guessing your a Drapion…?"
The Drapion laughed. "Yes I am a Drapion, but my nickname is Klamax. You are welcome to call me both."
Skorupi nodded wearily. Boy, was he glad to be alive. "I can't live my life with those punks hanging around. What'll I do?" Skorupi cried.
Drapion clicked his pincers. "If ya can't avoid them forever. Best to stand up to 'em. Show em who's boss. Fight that brute Charmeleon." Skorupi was a bit lost. He can't beat even Raticate. Forget Charmeleon. "But, I just can't!" He protested. Drapion scuttled outside. "And that's why we are gonna train, buddy."
