Hi guys, I'm back with another update! I can't get 1.5k words but I got 1.1k instead, so live with it.
I am hoping to finish this story in a short 15++ chapters, so be prepared for that many chapters ^.^

We arrived at Virdian City. Inferno was very exhausted because we "level grinded" so much; around 3 levels. As soon as we reached Pewter our eyes try and grab hold of the pokemon center.

In the pokemon center, I read through a lot of guidelines on how to beat Brock, the gym leader of Pewter City since Virdian City's gym leader has mysteriously dissapeared.

Seems like I have a disadvantage since Inferno is a fire type, and Brock uses Rock types. Not very surprising as I've seen a lot of journeys ends here because of Brock's Onix.

I then look up on something else; Charmanders. They are fire lizards, able to breathe fire out of their mouths because of certain internal organs. I learnt of their moveset, and found out if I level him to a certain level, he will evolve into Charmeleon and learn Metal Claw; a move super effective to Rock types.
I stood up and gestured Inferno to come to me.

"Let's get some Pokeballs," I said to him.

Meanwhile, Purple has been busy. Like her brother and many other people such as Lucas and May, she has been zooming through the cities. She is already in Virdian forest, and already captured 12 pokemons, her pokedex filling up nicely.

"Hmmm, so when a Caterpie levels up, it turns into a Metapod... very interes-"

"Uhm... Purple?"

"What is it Torrent?"

"I think I saw a shiny!" said the Squirtle restlessly

"Where?" Purple said, standing up to see if her Squirtle is correct.

"THERE!" Torrent shouted, pointing in a tree.

Purple saw what's in a tree, growing a huge grin in the process. It seems like a very strong pokemon by the standards of this route. Purple didn't ignore it one second, and she chucked a pokeball right at it.

Ztan made his way into the pokemart, asking for pokeballs. "Hmm, you're a new trainer, correct? I'll give you 5 for free, but next time no more!" said the clerk after inspecting Ztan's trainer card.

Ztan ran straight for Route 2 like a madman, Inferno following right behind him. Ztan ran straight into the bush. He found a little Pidgey waiting for him in between the shrubs.

"INFERNO! FIRE BLAST MURDER KILLER THING! But don't kill it"

"The heck do you mean?" Inferno questioned, but burned the Pidgey anyways.

"Ouch, that hurt, buddy!" shouted the Pidgey.

"POKEBALL GOOOOOOOOOOO!" shouted Ztan, unable to resist the temptation of catching a pokemon. The ball shook 3 times, and a "ding!" sound was heard. He had captured his first Pokemon.

"Hellll yess! I'm going to call you Cloud, since Sky is already a darn common name for Pidgeys" said Ztan without asking for Cloud's real name.

"Well whatever, that's fine anyways" said Cloud, smiling in agreement

Purple slumped onto a tree, her Squirtle and her new friend; a strange coloured Ratata.

"So, what's this about anyways?" said Marc, the Ratata.

"Well, Purple's on a quest to adventure throughout the region..." said Torrent, explaining the situation.

Meanwhile, Purple has found out about the strange coloured Ratata. It isn't a shiny pokemon, it's a pokemon infected by a virus because shiny Ratata aren't usually bright red. Purple also found out about the virus. It's called Pokemonium Nuzlokium, or using the common term that people use about this, Nuzlocke. They say this disease causes huge grave to people who had deep feelings for the pokemon.

"I have to be very careful with this guy, he seems special."

"Sorry about the awkwardness before guys... I guess I am a bit impatient..." said Ztan filled with regret.

"It's fine, but before anything stupid comes along," said Cloud, "Why did you start this journey?"

"It's a very long story, but basicly, I want to see my purpose in life."

The route seemed awfully silent as I explained what I mean by the "purpose in life" I was talking about.

"So, long story short, I have lived a pretty decent life. I had friends, I had enemies. I had rivals and besties. I had been shunned, respected, laughed at, joked with, and loved. My life is amazing yet unsatisfacting at the same time." I said quietly so no random trainers would jump at me.

As I looked up, I see the cloud moving slowly as I slowly unravel my life to my new friends. I smiled and continued my story.

"I am willing to go on this adventure to ask many glorious people about this... question that I am asking right now... It's not simple given the fact that I'm asking the unspeakable." I said, rising in tone.

"Get to the point buddy." said my Pidgey.

"Well, the point is, while beating all the gym leaders, I will ask what does it mean to be alive, for every one of them it must be different." I said.

I stood up and started making my way into the forest. Inferno walks behind me looking tired while Cloud is perching on my shoulder. Let's hope I get more friends in this accursed forest.

Inside the forest, we found a lot of bug type trainers waiting to murder us. That's what the guy in the entrance said, anyways. What really happened was: Ember, Ember, Ember, Level Up, Gust, Ember, Level Up, Gust, Gust. How amazing was that!

Then we saw a little glimmer in the grass. I poked it with a stick and something leapt up to me. It has a green colour, red eyes and a carnivorous look. At first I thought it was a Scyther. THEN, I saw what it really was.

"Aww, aren't you a cute Caterpie." said Cloud, perching on my shoulder.

"Shut up. My look ain't your business, you gonna die if you try to mock me again!" the Caterpie said harshly.

CLOUD USED MOCK. DARN WELL IT'S AMAZINGLY EFFECTIVE!

"Ooooh, the Caterpie's mad," Cloud said even more mockingly.

"That's enough cloud, Pokeball GO!" I said.

"What the heck is that?" the Caterpie said.

The ball absorbed the Caterpie. 3 slow shakes later I own a Caterpie. How delightful is this, three pokemons already.

"Call me Delux or you die." said Delux, the Caterpie.

POKEDEX REGISTERED:
Delux the Caterpie
Adamant nature
Met in VIRIDIAN FOREST at Lv4.

Alrighty, let's get out of this accursed forest before any more frantic Caterpies come and murder us with "powers." We all laughed (except Delux) and made our way out of the forest, only to find an exit filled with caterpies with red eyes and a vicious look ready to kill anybody in it's path.

Darn it life, why do you have to be sooooooo hard.

And here we have chapter two with 2 new pokemons added to the party and a lot of character development. Peace out!
