Pokémon Creepypastas

When Team Skull Had to Escape

I was just outside Po Town. It was raining heavily, yet the joyful music was still playing in the background. I could hear the faint cry of Raticates and Fearows blending in with the music.

My character walked up to the gate of Po Town, and entered. In there it was raining even more heavily, this time the odd shocks of lightening showing up on the screen.

I walked up to the two Team Skull Grunts, somehow unable to run, and stopped in front of them.

The music played sorrowfully in the background, as the protagonist looked around. I had a chat to the first Grunt, him saying "this place has been dead for years, yo."
The other one said "why are you here? Guzma passed on and Plumeria went off to her own stuff and left us all behind."

'Passed on'? I thought. What's that supposed to mean?

I walked up some more, treading on all the graffiti. I went in side the normal-looking pokemon centre to get away from the rain for a bit, and for some hope of the music to stop.

To my luck, the music continued to play but the rain was outside causing chaos. I walked up to the desk of the centre, only to be greeted by a female Grunt.

The centre was a mess, the usually happy and safe feeling of the place had disappeared. Now graffiti, spray bottles and boxes filled the area.

None of the screens were on and everything looked dead, as the previous Grunts had described.

I attempted to talk to the female Grunt, but the male one began to sing.

"Why are you here, yo?
This place is as dead as my ear, yo!"

The female one began to speak up.

"This is what's left of our hideout.
No point being payed; healing up, just get right out!"
"After the boss and plumeria left, this place feels like abyss...
Have you ever felt as dead as this?"

The spinda began to speak, but its cry sounded like a slower and deeper version of it's normal one.

"So like we said: get out of this scrape,
We'd rather you go and make your escape!"

Then they stopped, and disappeared, like they were never there. I wondered around the area a bit and the previous spinda, hypno and Grunt I saw had also gone.

I exited the place, only to be greeted by rain and thunder. I decided to get a move on and head up to the big building, and to see if Guzma really had gone.

All the Grunts around the area had mysteriously disappeared, as my character finally reached the door.

With one simple press of A, I was inside. The game labelled the place as 'shady house' and to my surprise some Grunts were still around. The place was just as much of a mess as the rest of the area.

I talked to the first Grunt I saw, as he said "What? A kid? Get out of here, before you die too!"

I paused, and re-read his speech in confusion. I pressed A to finish off our conversation and the Grunt disappeared too.

I walked West down the corridor and stumbled across a female Grunt who was sat down, staring at the walls as if she had nothing better to do.

"Guzma... even though he's tough, he couldn't beat death. No one could."

Suddenly, I realised what happened. Guzma either literally or metaphorically died. How? The ultra worm holes, probably.

The Grunt also disappeared, as I walked South for a bit, then headed East and into the nearby door.
