You know, you kind of need Pokeballs in order to catch anything in this CYOA...
Begin crafting Earthly Curry balls.

Pick up as much random crap as you can and shove it into the pocket he's in.

Get to Cherrygrove and then forget how to run so you can learn it again.

You forge ahead towards Cherrygrove City as you craft Pokeballs out of Earthy Curry (you manage to make ten), catching a Hoothoot (using a Pokeball, and defeating a few more), and grabbing an Oran Berry on the way. You also shove a ridiculous amount of random stuff into the pocket with Gallerian Marlon in it, pointedly ignoring his yells of annoyance, because the guy did try to kill you for crimes you haven't actually committed yet. Once you actually make it to Cherrygrove City, you realize that you've forgotten how to run. You think back to that sign, all the way at the start of Route 29, and remember: "It's like walking, but faster", and re-learn (or remember) how to run all over again. Re-equipped with this new, knowledge, you run all the way to the dry cleaner's (although it's only about ten feet away from you), and buy some Tide Pods by trading them for a small part of your vast amounts of curry, dropping them in the pocket with Gallerian in the hopes that maybe he'll resent you less if he gets his robes cleaned. Gallerian: "Uhm...thanks? I guess? I'm still pretty sure you're going to destroy the world if you keep going on the path you're on. Seriously you should maybe consider stopping this 'Pokemon Journey'." Looking around once you're outside of the dry cleaners, you see not only the dry cleaner's, but also a Pokemon Center, a Pokemart, three random houses, one of which seems more plot important than the others, a route to the north, a route to the east, and a few people loitering around. You could go anywhere within the city, talk to anyone! There's even almost identical twins sitting on a bench near the entrance to the town! What shall you do? |

Swap the twin's clothing, and see if anyone in the immediate area, including themselves, notice.

You walk over to the twins, preparing to initiate the greatest switcheroo of the century, if not the millennium: First, you plan to switch the twins' clothing, then, switch the more fashionable outfit of the two with your own, proceeding to finally switch yourself with the twins! This plan will be genius! However, you to take a moment to wonder if this place has a drunk guy in it, and eventually, through your powers of observation, deduce that there is not, in fact, a drunk guy there, and you briefly scream that your life is a lie, which, unfortunately, attracts the attention of the twins that you were going to pull the switcheroo over on.  The one with the bow looks you over, and says, "Well... At least it's not..." And then the other, seeming to be almost creepily in sync, replies, "Someone who abandoned us..." You naturally have no idea who or what this pair of twins are talking about, and ask them if they can switch clothes with each other and then you. They laugh in sync, before the boy with the ponytail speaks up again. "Mistress will not mind..." "If we play dress-up for now." Having gotten the twins' verdict, you swap their clothes, and then swap your outfit with the dress and ribbon. You now look 20% more fashionable! Gallerian yells in protest from inside your pockets, but you ignore him. The twins, however, do not, and pull him unceremoniously from the pocket that was formerly known as yours. You note that yeah, his robes are clean now. "What are you..." "Doing here? Interrupting the..." "Errands on behalf of our Mistress?" And then, before Gallerian gets a chance to speak, the twins say "You abandoned us!" in unison, and take out Pokeballs, preparing to fight. You look over at Gallerian, and he looks about as confused as you are. Gallerian: "I haven't met EITHER of you! Ever!" "We know..." "You to be wrong..."  The Creepy Twins attack! Twin 1 sent out Hoothoot! Twin 2 sent out Sentret! Gallerian still looks pretty confused, and you think he's telling the truth about not having seen these twins before. What will you do? Sentret: 10/10 Hoothoot: 11/11 |

So first things first, you shove Gallerian Marlon at the twins and try to help him take on a battle stance.  "I...don't understand what I'm supposed to do here." He looks at you for help, getting pecked in the face by the twins' Hoothoot and getting a bloody nose in the process. (Gallerian Marlon: 12/15) Seeing that Gallerian is going to be of literally no help here, you send out every Pokemon that you have! (Hoothoot: 3/12 Totodile: 13/14 Cyndaquil: 14/14) "That..." "Isn't allowed...." The twins try to get you to forfeit by invoking the rules of how a Pokemon battle is supposed to go, but you aren't having any of that! What, do they not know that attacking a party member who isn't one of your Pokemon due to not being caught in a Pokeball is ALSO against the rules? If they're going to break the rules, you sure have a right to! And break them you shall! You start by punching the Hoothoot in the face, which knocks it backwards into the guy twin's face, which instantly KOs it. As for the Sentret, you order Cyndaquil and Totodile to both use their starting Normal type attacks (Scratch and Tackle respectively) on it, which gets its health in the red. "This is..." "Not good...." Sentret uses Tackle, fainting your Hoothoot, but Gallerian manages to hit it with his gavel while it's distracted. The twins, for their part, recall their defeated Pokemon, and fix you with a stare that can only be described as, well...creepy. "Mistress will not...." "Forgive this...." They then run off. Gallerian: "Uhm...thank you? I'm not entirely sure why they hated me so much, but..." He wipes the blood off his face, trailing off because he doesn't know how to finish that sentence. Notable is the fact that you managed to switch clothes back with the twins upon winning the battle somehow without any of you noticing, so you didn't lose all your curry and items. What shall you do, then? |

In the face of Gallerian Marlon's confusion, you decide to revenge. In a much less extreme fashion than what the readers are thinking of, though. Probably. You turn to him, face completely serious, and inform him that those twins were probably ANGERY about a future crime he would commit. Gallerian sighs, pinches the bridge of his nose, and starts to speak.
"That's not even how it wo-"
Both his train of thought and speech are interrupted by a tree catching on fire due to it hyperempathically feeling your rage, and crashing into the vaguely plot-important house.
You are now the guy who lives in the vaguely plot-important house. You think about how you can see the sea, when suddenly you hear a loud crashing behind you, accompanied by something that sounds almost entirely unlike the screams of a thousand pipe organs. You turn around, no longer seeing the sea, and notice that the doorway has smoke drifting through it. Unsure of what this means, you go towards the door, only to see a burning tree trunk and a stairwell wreathed in flames. You bolt towards the window of the room you were in, but you end up having no way to get down and escape the inferno so you can only wait, watch, and hope for a miracle.
Five minutes later, you can no longer be the guy who lives in that house, because he's too busy being dead.
Gallerian opens his mouth, tries to say something, closes it again, tries to compose himself, and then goes on an angry tirade.
"Look, I know you caused that, the Judges foresaw it. That's literally only the beginning of what'll go wrong if you don't stop." He sighs, and tries to take a reasonable tone. "Ozzy, go back to your town. Play with your books and your joint-stool. Forget about the plot."
What will you do.

The first thing you can think of is to look at the note that you had saved for such an occasion as this. You reach into your pocket, rummage around for a bit, and then pull it out. The words scrawled in a barely-legible handwriting by your past self shake you from your frozen and indifferent mental state, and you collapse to your knees, letting your head drop to your hands, and beg for forgiveness from the remnants of the ruined house. The house, being merely dust and ashes, doesn't respond to your emphatic apolog- Wait. What was that? You could've sworn you saw little piles of soot with eyes floating away from the house just now. You blink again, trying to adjust your vision to see them better, and they're gone. You internally shrug, thinking that perhaps it was a side effect of your guilty conscious. Like how people with guilty consciouses are more startled by loud noi- "AHEM." You're so startled that you achieve the EIGHT FOOT VERTICAL LEAP, and you turn around, only to see Gallerian standing behind you, arms crossed. Gallerian: "Are you going to go back to your home before you can cause more damage to this region?" Wow, rude. He could clearly see that you were in the middle of trying to ask for forgiveness, and he asks this right now? You haven't even had time to think yet! You see him about to open his mouth to ask you again, and you're still not ready to answer, so you do what comes naturally to you: You shove Earthy Curry into Gallerian's mouth so he can't talk with his mouth full of curry. That'll buy you a bit of time. Well, what'll you do now that you have time to think? Don't ask me, I almost had this ready to post then accidentally closed the tab, tried to reopen it to save it, found nothing, and questioned the nature of existence itself. |
