Chapter 5: Phantump and Bannetes

Hiiiiiiii!


I want to say to Kecleon: Thanks for consistently reviewing! I really appreciate it. I was playing Pokémon... Crystal, I think? I got to the part with the Slowpoke. That does show that they do eat parts of Pokémon. I actually have never heard of that Cloyster theory, but looking at the pictures shows their eerie similarity...:P


Time for a story!

Imagine:

You are a young child. You and your parents were exploring the forest and you got separated from them.

Now you are stumbling around. You fall and your clothes rip.

You look upwards, through the tall trees that loom around you. They look like dark giants, holding many Pokémon.

Suddenly, you hear a rustling.

And the pumpkins rise from around you.

You recognize them as Phantump, Pokémon that hold the spirit of children who died when they were lost in the forest.

"You shall become one of uuuuussssssss. Jooooooiiiiiinnnnnnn uuussssssss..." they hiss, coming towards you.

Starving and tired, you fall. The Phantump come closer.

You are soooo exhausted.

Finally, you let your eyes slide shut. But just before they close for the last time, you see a dark shape appear. You recognize it- a Banette. A Banette that looks like your doll-

"Rosie?" you whisper, recognition and hurt flooding through you.

"This is what you get for betraying me..."


"Yup, Banettes and Phantump story. Have fun sleeping!"

p.s. Where can you get Banettes in the games?
