Chapter 38: Clefairy and Cleffa
"Standing here is really boring..."
"Yeah, but we've caught all the Clefairy and are digging to get the Moon Stone, which is a huge reward in itself."
"That's right, hehe."
The members of Team Rocket were chatting and laughing under the moonlight.
Meanwhile, the Pokémon Clefairy and Cleffa were trembling with fear in their cage.
They were playing and waiting for the moon to shine on the Moon Stone, but suddenly, these people appeared and captured them all.
They were illegally mining the Moon Stone and even laughing about it!
Those bastards!
"By the way, I heard an explosion nearby earlier, I wonder who used a bomb?"
"Who knows? Maybe the captain?"
"Tch, that fat guy is good for nothing except for his strong Pokémon. I wish I could punch him in the face."
...It seems none of the Team Rocket members liked the fat guy.
"Calm down, just be patient, and one day we'll get there. We just need to report to the Boss."
"Right, haha!"
"Skibidi."
?!
Suddenly, a voice came from behind the two, making them sweat and turn around.
...but no one was there.
"Hey... am I hallucinating?"
"What kind of hallucination makes us both see the same thing?"
"Ohio Rizz."
?!??!
Both of them looked around, goosebumps rising.
"...Is there a Gastly here?"
"Are you stupid?! Gastly wouldn't appear here, especially not in an area where Fairy-type Pokémon live!"
Yes, in a way, Fairy-types have very high life energy, while Ghost-types represent death energy, which are opposites.
Even though these two types do normal damage to each other...
"L+Ratio."
"THERE'S DEFINITELY SOMEONE HERE!" The Team Rocket member quickly turned around, only to see a boy staring wide-eyed at him.
"AGHHHHH!!" Both of them screamed in fear at the sight of the boy.
The boy's face was almost purple, as if poisoned, and his body was trembling uncontrollably.
This kid wasn't human!
Gastly, right?! It has to be Gastly!
"Skibidi rizz ohio taco bell fake jordan 1 2 buckle my shoe gedigadidao fire in the hole no taxes women grimake shake."
What language is it speaking?!???
The more they listened, the more terrified they became.
"G-Get your Pokémon out now!!"
"B-But I'm scared!!"
"SCARED OF WHAT?! IF YOU DON'T DO IT, WE'RE DEAD!"
Hearing that, he quickly took out a Pokéball and summoned Zubat.
"Zubat, Bite!"
Zubat flew towards the boy, biting his head making him bleed.
But... the boy remained calm.
"I THOUGHT GHOST TYPES FEARED DARK TYPES?!"
The other one, also frightened, summoned Ekans to help.
Ekans lunged to bite, but the boy grabbed its tail and used it to attack Zubat.
"感受一下我的武功吧,你这个混蛋 ! "
????
"What kind of language is this kid speaking now?!"
The boy jumped behind the man, grabbed Ekans, and looped it around his neck.
Then he pulled hard!
"Uaghh!"
"L-Let him go!! He's choking!!"
As the man was about to step forward to stop him, suddenly, a hand gripped his shoulder tightly.
"Huh?"
He turned around, only to see seven other boys staring at him.
"sieht sehr schön aus! Ich weiß nicht, wie sein Hintern ist!"
"おそらく他の人たちと同じように,今は他のものを見たいと思っています"
???????
What kind of language are you kids speaking now?!?!
Then the boys started punching him in the face, touching him in the chest, kicking him in the nut, licking his cheek, breakdancing, and speaking strange languages.
It was like hell!
Clefairy and Cleffa became even more terrified, tenfold!
Luckily, a girl approached.
"It's okay, you're safe now! We're not the bad guys!"
'But we're just a bunch of crazies,' the girl thought to herself, sighing.
She took out her Pokémon, Charmander.
Her Charmander was well taken care of and was still at level 5.
This was simply because its trainer didn't want it to fight.
But Charmander is a Pokémon with a fierce personality, and a strong desire to battle is in its genes.
So not fighting and not getting any stronger was an insult to this fiery lizard!
But its trainer loved it very much, so it wouldn't complain... (lol)
And now was the time for it to be useful for once!
Even though it hadn't learned any moves yet...
Charmander looked at the iron cage and thought for a moment, then remembered it had a fire tail.
But the flame on its tail was quite small, and it didn't know how to make it burn stronger...
Ah, there's a way!
It recalled memories that made it angry!
It started remembering how its Trainer always lovingly held it close to her chest...
No! That's embarrassing! I'm a man, I shouldn't think like that!
Hmm...
It remembered its Trainer affectionately petting an Oddish...
AGHHHH!!! HOW DARE MY TRAINER PET THAT POKÉMON!!! I'M CUTER!!! (lol)
The flame of anger burned to its fullest, quickly melting the iron bars of the cage.
Clefairy and Cleffa were amazed and then thanked Lily and Charmander.
"This way!" Lily led the Clefairy and Cleffa out, but they didn't follow.
Lily found it strange, so she turned back to look at the Pokémon.
Clefairy tried to explain that the Moon Stone was still here, and they couldn't leave.
But if Lily could understand what Pokémon were saying, things wouldn't be so difficult...
Of course, Red stepped in to talk to Clefairy.
After all, Red, Brock, and Hilda were all following the players.
Hilda blushed as she looked at the Clefairy in front of her, finding them extremely cute.
Red understood after hearing them and noticed the moon starting to shine brightly.
The Clefairy and Cleffa noticed this too and quickly ran over to gather in the spot where the moonlight was the brightest.
The players, who were previously acting crazy and tormenting the Rocket members, suddenly stopped, paying attention to the Clefairy and Cleffa.
The Clefairy and Cleffa all began to sing, and the moonlight grew even more radiant.
The Moon Stone beneath their feet started to glow, making everyone squint from the brightness.
The Clefairy began to shine—they were evolving!
When the dazzling light faded, the Clefairy's forms had changed.
They had evolved into Clefable!
The Cleffa joyfully congratulated the Clefable, who were just as happy.
And the players?
"...truly beautiful."
"Fairies descended from the heavens..."
"I think I'm in love..." (ew)
Red noticed that the players had returned to normal and felt relieved, thinking that their earlier chaos could have been disastrous if they encountered Pokémon much stronger than them.
Red then looked at the player still holding Ekans as if it were a weapon.
...wait, that actually worked.
Red didn't realize that his thoughts were beginning to be influenced by the players...
