Chapter 1: The Beginning
About 10 years ago, a young boy named Cody was walking through a dark, dank path deep inside the Viridian Forest. The forest was full of wild, vicious, and strange creatures.some even unknown to mankind. When Cody heard a noise, he sent out his Pikachu to illuminate the area. With one Flash, the entire forest was lit up. Then, he looked in some shrubbery nearby and found a Weedle-stick. It was sort of like a Weedle, just with a stick on it. Cody, who was very curious (since a MelonStickemon or anything that ended with "stick" was new to him), touched it, only to be stung with the stinger on its head. MelonStickemon were more dangerous than Pokemon, as each of them had some dangerous characteristic on the stick part of its body. This Weedle-stick, for instance, had many poison stingers covering the Popsicle stick-like stick. Cody decided to capture it until he remembered that he didn't know how or what to catch it with. He tried a regular Poke Ball, but it failed. Then, suddenly, as the Poke Ball went back to his hand, a blinding light surrounded the Poke Ball. When the glowing stopped, the Poke Ball was different. Instead of being red and white, it was orange and yellow with a big stick, with a melon on it (which is the Melon Stick). Cody was very surprised. He threw it at the Weedle-stick and it went inside the ball. Cody thought it was easy just to watch it break out. 'Maybe I can battle it.' Cody thought as he held the Poke Ball with Pikachu in it. "I'll try with Pikachu," Cody said as he threw the Poke Ball. Pikachu came out only to say the stupid phrase we all know and hate: "Pi pika chu!" Cody was very irritated at that and yelled at Pikachu. "You quit that Pika-stuff now and battle this Weedle- stick or else I will!" Pikachu decided to listen and quit the Pika-stuff - and also let Cody battle the Weedle-stick! Cody ran up and tried to tackle it, only to run into the poison spikes. Cody then pleaded with Pikachu to battle, as the Weedle-stick's poison leaked out into Cody's arm. Pikachu only said,

"You said you'd battle it, so I let you. If you're so tough, then you can take it on yourself."

Cody sighed and took the Weedle-stick out of his arm. "OUCH!" Cody screamed when he pulled the Weedle-stick out. The scream was so loud that Pikachu spilt its Melon-flavored soda. Pikachu was very ticked after that and shocked Cody until he gave Pikachu more money for a new drink. Cody thought, 'That lazy little rat, he does nothing around here.' "PIKA!!!" Cody quickly turned around to see Pikachu being carried off by a pack of Sandshrew-sticks. Pikachu tried to shock them, but it failed. Then Cody went off after Pikachu and grabbed onto a few of the Sandshrew-sticks, only to be blinded by the dust bombs on the stick part of their bodies. The leader of the Sandshrew-sticks said,

"We are taking Pikachu to a secret hideout in Diglett's Cave. Meet us at the hideout and bring Melon-bombs for a big battle against the Digletts and Dugtrios."
END OF TRANSLATION
Cody thought, 'Kooky.but that IS my Pikachu.he may be lazy and annoying but he is MY Pokemon.' "Okay, I will," Cody said to the Sandshrew-sticks as he walked off towards his own Melon factory in Viridian City. Little did he know, however, that this would be the beginning of the end.
