The Kamizardic Region Book 1: Beginnings

Chapter 11: Irresistible Attract

Just starting on route 303, Zane, Alta and Grimsley let out their Pokémon for a lunch break. “This food is so tasty.” Zane commented and took another bite. “Thank you Zane. I’ve been told I’m pretty good in the kitchen.” Grimsley thanked him. “Look at all of our Pokémon. They’re all so happy.” Alta smiled. All eight of their Pokémon happily ate their food. Trapinch was eating his food the slowest as usual. He savoured his food though. A Pokémon was watching Trapinch eat his food and she planned her next move carefully. She acted as if she fell out of the bushes right beside Trapinch. Trapinch saw her but continued eating. “Absol Ab!” Absol was trying to get attention on the new Pokémon. “What is it Absol? Oh look a Skitty!” Grimsley was surprised. “A Skitty did you say?” Alta asked taking her pokedex out. “Skitty is the kitten Pokémon. It can’t stop itself from chasing moving things, and it runs in a circle, chasing its own tail.” Dexter announced. “Aw it’s so cute.” Zane came over and patted Skitty’s head. “Skitty!” She smiled with her plan still in her head. Zane and Alta went to go clean up their lunch when Skitty put her plan into action. She went over to Trapinch and used attract. Trapinch fell for it because Skitty is a female and Trapinch is a male. His eyes turned into pink hearts. “Skitty Skit Skitty.” Skitty told Trapinch she was hungry and wanted some food. Trapinch quickly gave Skitty all of its food and she started to chow down on the food. Alta noticed this and was a bit concerned. “Why is Trapinch just giving his food to Skitty?” Alta asked. “Well there is one of two options happening here. He either has real feelings for Skitty and wanted to share his food or she used attract because she was hungry.” Grimsley explained. “Let’s see if she knows attract.” Alta got her pokedex out and looked at Skitty’s moves. “She does know attract!” Alta started to get mad. “That dumb Skitty is a filthy rotten thief.” “Now you know how I felt when Murkrow stole my pokedex.” Zane remembered that moment quite clearly. Skitty finished Trapinch’s food but was still hungry and picked out her next target. Snivy still had food left and Skitty waltzed over to her. “Skitty Skit Skitty.” Skitty asked for some more food. “Sni Vy” Snivy turned its back on Skitty and continued eating. This action ticked Skitty off and she used attract on Snivy. The attract did nothing because they are both females and Snivy kept chowing down ignoring Skitty and hoping that she would go away. “Skit Skit Skitty!” Skitty hit Snivy on the back with double slap. Snivy was angry and stared furiously at Skitty. Skitty charged forward with iron tail but Snivy wrapped Skitty up with vine whip. Alta was watching this and didn’t look too pleased. “Is Skitty trying to steal your food as well Snivy? How dare you try and steal my Pokémon’s food.” Alta was not too happy. “Skitty Skitty.” Skitty looked glum that her plans on getting food failed and she was frustrated with herself. Murkrow was looking at how Skitty’s tail moved and then chomped down on it with his beak. Skitty got a jolt of pain and burst out of the vine whip. “Skitty!” She used blizzard and froze Murkrow in place. “If it’s a battle you want then it’s a battle you’re going to get. No thief freezes my friend’s Pokémon.” Alta was ready with Snivy. “Cyndaquil can you defrost Murkrow with flamethrower?” Zane asked and Murkrow started his defrosting process. “Skitty!” She used blizzard again. “Snivy use leaf tornado!” The blizzard froze all of the leaves from the leaf tornado. “Snivy hit them with vine whip!” The leaves hit Skitty one after the other. With quick thinking, Skitty hit the remaining leaves with double slap. “Snivy use leaf tornado!” Skitty used copycat, which turned into leaf tornado. The two attacks collided and exploded. “Snivy use vine whip!” The vines wrapped around Skitty trapping her. “Snivy use leaf blade and finish this nonsense!” “Skitty, where are you?” A female’s voice shouted. Snivy immediately freed Skitty and she went back to her trainer. “I’m sorry I forced you to evolve. Will you please forgive me?” The female trainer hugged her Skitty with a moonstone in her hand. “I’m Sissy. I hope my Skitty wasn’t too much trouble.” Sissy introduced herself. “It’s nice to meet you. I’m Alta and this is Grimsley and Zane.” Alta introduced them. “Snivy Snivy Sniv.” Snivy was explaining to Skitty that evolving wasn’t that scary. Skitty thought about it for a couple seconds then agreed to evolve. “That’s awesome Skitty, I’m so glad you want to evolve. Sissy put the moonstone on the ground and Skitty jumped to the ground and touched it. There was a bright light and Skitty changed shape. “Delcatty.” Delcatty was happy that she evolved. “Delcatty looks like a cool Pokémon.” Zane took his pokedex out. “Delcatty is the prim Pokémon and the evolved form of Skitty. It is highly popular among female trainers for its sublime fur. It does not keep a nest.” Dexter confirmed. “This is so amazing. I have to go tell all of my friends. Catch you guys later some time and it was nice meeting you.” Sissy ran off with Delcatty at her side. “She’s got a ton of energy that girl.” Grimsley commented. “I’m just glad Skitty won’t cause any more trouble.” Zane and the rest of them laughed at the inside joke because they knew Delcatty would still get into trouble.
