《Petilil - Bottom Up》 Rules of The Modified Pokemon World & Prologue 6/16 "Talking" *Sounds or actions happening* Thinking "Telepathy"
A quick explanatorychapter to clear some questions. If any updates are made to this list, the title willhave the edit date. -No such thing as PP. -Pokemon can die. -At the end of a chapter, you will see a detailed status screen of our protagonist, however in the Pokemon world, the pokemon just can''t simply bring up a status menu. -You only have to "defeat" another Pokemon to gain Experience and level up, meaning you don''t have to kill them to do so. -Although stats do exist,only you viewers will get to see the exact numbers. The Pokemon in this world can''t see much in detail unless under special circumstances or a special ability was used. -Natures do alter stats. -IVs exist while EVs don''t,and IVswon''t be mentioned in the story. -TM moves can be learnedby eithergetting stronger meeting special requirements, even some learning TM moves they shouldn''t in the games. (By a certain degree of course. No flamethrowing-Blastoise will be found.) -Egg moves function as normal. (For instance, if two Pikachuswith one holding a light orb were to breed, the offspring *might* have Volt Tackle.) You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.-Pokemon don''t only remember 4 moves. -Items made by human obviously don''t exist. (Pokeballs, Choice band, etc.) -Evolution can''t be stopped once it starts. -Items (including Evo stones)can be naturally found in the environment. -The story is set in Pokemon Generation 5, but Pokemon Generations usually don''t apply beyond that. Meaning you can find a Ralts or a Snivy in the wild naturally.
~Prologue~ The World of Pokemon. Filled with wonders and mysteries, it is a very unique world. On a normal day in the Pokemon world, a new life was born - an Egg. However, this Egg wasvery unlucky. A short while after its birth, its parents were chased down by predators of the forest. Maybe the god pities it and gave it a bit of luck, the egg survived because the predators didn''t notice it. However, can the egg survive without its parents'' protection and care? Maybe it''ll die a short-lived life. Or maybe, it''ll survive and strive like a blooming flower. Only time can tell now. . . . . . . . . *crack* *Crack* *A small hole was formed at the surface of the egg* Chapter 1 Finally, after what seems like hours and hours of tackling, the pokemon was out of its shell. "Mom? Dad?" She spoke, but no answers were given. -Petilil''s POV- I searched my surroundings, but my Dad or Mom wasn''t near. It was nighttime now, the surroundings were very dark, giving off a gloomy feel. I feel like I''m being watched on my back at all times, but when I turn around to see... well there was nothing. "Anyone?" I said again, but the only response was the silence of the forests. I start to panic. If my Mom and Dad aren''t around here, then it means they''ve gone out for food... right. That''s wishful thinking at best, any parent with a right mind won''t leave their child that''s not even one day old in the night alone. The most likely answer is they''ve... they''ve... perished... and I was now alone... I felt sad when that thought came to my mind. I was alone, and no one will help me. No one will talk to me, no one will find food for me when I''m barely half a day old, no one will protect me... Scary thoughts came to my mind when I thought about that. That''s right, there''s no time for sadness and sorrow now. Currently, I''m the best target any predator could wish for. If I don''t start doing something now, death was guaranteed. Alright, Petilil. You can do this! First of all, it was the middle of a night. Ensure safety was definitely the top priority objective. I start searching my surroundings again, this time looking for spots to hide. I saw a tree with grass relatively taller than the others in this area growing under it, and decided that was the perfect spot for now. I run to the patch of grass, making some rustling sounds. Some predators must have heard this, I think, so I won''t have much time until one comes. I quickly dug a hole in the ground, making sure to leave breathing pockets, and jumped in it without making too much noise. Now I should look just like the patches of grass near me. (Some minutes passed) This book is hosted on another platform. Read the official version and support the author''s work. I now hear multiple footsteps of what I think are the predators of this forest. As they got closer and closer, I could feel my heart beating harder and faster by the minute. Now they''re right next to me, I barely held in my screams, heartbeats beating so fast I could hear it more clear than what the predators are talking about on the surface. Luckily, after some minutes passed they walked away. I try to make a sigh of relief, but then realize almost my whole body was in the ground, so I failed to do so. That was close... I thought to myself, then the sleepiness took me into dreamlands. -On the surface- A pack of Poochyena lead by a single Mightyena soon stopped as they lost Petilil. "I swear a saw a small Pokemon near here!" Said a Poochyena silently. "I highly doubt it. Besides, didn''t your eyes get hurt in the last hunt? I''m 90 percent sure you only saw the shadows of a patch of grass and mistook it for a Pokemon." Another Poochyena responded. "Enough!" The Mightyena commanded. "The important matter, is now we''ve lost a potential prey. It wasn''t anybody''s fault, however..." The Mightyena stopped for a moment and continued. "To lose track of prey that easily, all of your senses had to be improved on!" Said the Mightyena in a devastating tone. The Poochyena knew of what''s to come, and they cursed the Poochyena who made up a non-existing prey in thier minds.

Chapter 2 -Petilil''s POV- I was quickly awakened by the warm sunlight. It felt very good when I was under the sun. It feels like its gently and softly touching me, giving me the energy to move, almost like a parent would... I saddened up as I came to that thought. But as of now, the more important thing is to find the essentials. I start moving through the forest again, this time feeling lighter than when it was nighttime. I advanced quickly, and the result was some berries I picked up from nearby bushes and a pond of fresh water with Magikarp in them. It was extremely difficult to carry things with how things are now because I have no hands or legs. This wasn''t a big problem before, as I floated slightly above ground before, but carrying things were another story. As to how I actually carried them, well... I just put them on my head, in the middle of the 3 leaves(grass, whichever you think make more sense to you) It certainly wasn''t a pleasant experience, and was it hard to balance berries on my head. But it will have to do as the method of carrying as of now. I sit by the pond and start looking through what I have gathered. A total of 3 berries, one being round and blue, with a green tip at the top, and another being yellow with red dots on its surface, and the final one is a bunch of small and round red berries. It was until now that I noticed how different I was apart from others of my kind. My leaves(grass, whichever made more sense to you) were a bit brighter than usual, but the bigger change was my body. It was bright yellow. I''m not sure why or how, but clearly it was a disadvantage. If I was normal colored, I''d be able to blend into my surroundings with ease. Now with this "golden" body of mine, well, wouldn''t you say finding a random gold plant in a patch of grass be abnormal? Urgh. Why do you have to play me like this, God? Sigh. Well, it doesn''t help thinking about it now. The more important matter at hand right now is to devour these newly found berries. I decided to try the yellow-with-red-dot berry first. The taste was... mediocre. That was all I can say about it. Mediocre. It didn''t exactly taste like anything. It''s like food having all the spices in the world, but every flavor was the same amount like each other, creating food that has 5 flavors but you can''t taste it simply because it blended in so well. Next was the small-and-round red berries. To say it in the simplest terms, it''s Amazing. The berry was a little drier and had less in the sour side. I felt like I just tasted some heavenly meal crafted by the head chef to serve a king in a palace... well, maybe I''m exaggerating, but still. It''s very good. After tasting the small round red berries, I decided to keep the last berry. I wasn''t hungry by then, and I was sure the taste of this berry would only be overshadowed by the red berries, which isn''t a good thing. So, I drank some water from the pond and moved on. Not long after I started moving, I heard the sounds of Pokemon battling each other. I was scared at first, but curiosity got the better of me, so I went to the source of the sounds. It was quite the scene. A red fox-like Pokemon with 4 tails was fighting a group of dog-like Pokemon with gray and dark fur. And the situation wasn''t going well for the fox-like Pokemon. It was getting more and more beat back, and the injuries on it wasn''t a big help. The dog Pokemon was growling at it, then suddenly, one tackled the fox Pokemon with a hard force, and it flew a good distance. Maybe it was Fate playing me, or God''s sick nature to see what would happen if something occurred, the fox Pokemon landed right next to me. Great. Now they''re sure to find me. I drop the berry on my head and carried the fox Pokemon. Then I ran without much thought. And clearly, it was a bad idea to carry it. Now I have a Pokemon not only bigger than me, but also heavier than me, on my head, and it severely slowed down my speed. I looked back and the dog Pokemon are now chasing me. They''re slowly but surely catching up. There''s no choice but to fight now. I put the fox Pokemon down and turned back to fight them off. The four tackled me instantly. Thankfully, my speed allowed me to dodge 3 of the tackles, but the fourth one not. "Eeeek!" I let out a screech of pain, but being painful and doing nothing doesn''t help this situation. I calm my mind and use Absorb on the dog that tackled me. It seems to dealt more damage than I had anticipated, and one of them fell just like that. I also heal some of my wounds it inflicted on me, but not to full. But it did not faint. The four charges at me again, this time I almost got hit by one. I used Absorb once more and the injured dog collapsed. -You leveled up to level 4! Growth was learned- Did you know this text is from a different site? Read the official version to support the creator. A voice said that in my mind, but it''s not the thing I''m concerned about right now. Although from four dogs to three dogs was a massive step in victory, the fact that they''re now enraged is not. They let out an intimidating howl of rage, and now they are charging at me with insane speeds. I can definitely say for sure, If they hit me with a tackle at that speed and power, I''d be sure to go up to see my parents. And I don''t want that to happen. Not while this fox Pokemon was unconscious, at least. The situation, however, wasn''t looking good. I don''t think I can fight them in that state of power. I head towards the fox Pokemon, put it on my head, and ran as fast as one Petilil could towards one single direction. It didn''t matter which, as long as I kept running towards it. I ran, and ran, and ran as fast as possible. I did not look back and only kept running. But finally, I ran out of energy and collapsed onto the patch of grass with the fox Pokemon next to me. As my consciousness fades, I could hear the dog Pokemon no more. -Fox Pokemon''s POV- I wake up to find only forests around me. It seems like the Poochyenas are gone... somehow. Then I saw it, the most probable reason as to the disappearance of the Poochyenas. A Petilil was lying on the ground. I can tell that she was injured, and most likely ran out of energy after saving me from those dogs. But why would she save me? More likely or not if I was another Pokemon I would''ve made her my lunch. How did she even run that fast anyway? I know grass Pokemon tend to have more strength under the sun, but still. She did just carry a Pokemon bigger and heavier than her and ran from Poochyenas. And moreover, her leaves were brighter than usual, and the whole body was shining a brilliant bright yellow. She must be special to have those kinds of colors. I guess the more important thing to do is wake this Petilil up. I thought to myself. I start by searching nearby bushes, and luckily enough, there were Oran berries. I ate some of them to recover my strength by a bit, and I put some of the berries in the Petilil''s mouth, in hopes that she would heal from them. Some minutes after she ate the Oran berries, she woke up. She was confused at first, but seemed to realize the situation and calmed down. "So you''re awake," I said. "...Yes" She answered, in a quiet voice. "Come on now, don''t be shy. The Poochyenas are long gone by now." I said. "I''m Vulpix by the way, and I assume you''re a Petilil born with very special colors somehow." "...Yes" She said, this time in a louder voice than before. "Why do you have those bright yellows on your body instead of green?" I asked. "I was born with those colors" She answered. When I questioned her "And why is that?" She simply replied with "I don''t know" Curious. It seems to me like a bad idea to have all of those shining colors on one''s body. It simply gave away their position, and made it harder to hide in bushes or blend in the enviorment. "Why did you save me?" I asked, now the Petilil is in a slightly shocked face. "You had no reason to do so, and there''s also the chance that once I wake up, I''d just turn you into lunch." Then, she answered: "I... don''t know, really." I was confused when she said that. Then she continued: "It just felt right to help you at that time." Now that''s a weird Petilil If I''ve ever seen one. Helping others in another species? There''s basically little to no one who would bet their lives to save another from different families, and let''s not even talk about different species. Speaking of families... "Where are your father and mother? I didn''t see them around here. Did you sneak out of your home?" "They..." As she''s saying that, her face suddenly became sorrow, almost to the point of crying. I think I''ve asked the wrong question. It seems like this Petilil''s family is now..dead. And she''s the only survivor of the said family. I''ve had a family before, and hearing this just makes me sad. "It''s OK," I said. "Don''t answer the question if you don''t want to then." Now less sad, she gave me a smile and a nod, like she just gave me a mental "Thank you".
