I'm a Nidoking... and today, me and some other, Pokémon who can't stand this place as much as I can, are going to escape from it together.
As usual, this place is not heavily guarded, or rather, this place is too big, so big that there is no way for them to effectively monitor all of us Pokémon, which of course is the source of our misery...
There is no way for us to continue to survive here...
We've grown too big to be safely housed here by humans.
We have to be sent to some unknown place like our predecessors and then face an unknown future.
...That's not the future I want!
We decided to get out of here, and that seemed to be the way to go, and while it was just as full of unknowns and dangers, at least I held my future in my hands.
A dozen or so of us Pokémon gathered, and after making the realization, we easily broke out of that flimsy, fragile fence.
The fence was so fragile that I punched a big hole in it with just one punch...
Along with it came the sound known as an alarm.
There were many more Pokémon by the fence, but they looked at the hole... as if they hadn't even seen it, and turned away...
I didn't really understand why they wouldn't take a step, but I knew I had to get out of there.
The humans known as trainers would be arriving soon.
After their arrival, what awaited me would only be more than the understatement 'sent away'...
I quickly left wherever I was.
Then I finally got to see the brutal outside world...
Killing, fighting, and injuries had become routine.
Some of the Pokémon who escaped with me were captured, and others wandered around outside like me...
I've gotten used to life in the outside world, and gradually, I've become very similar to the Pokémon in the outside world, fierce and cold. Although this is different from my life in the cage - I call that place a cage - I seem to prefer this kind of life.
It's as if I was born this way...
But there's only one thing that's different... my fear of humans... far exceeds that of any other wild Pokémon...
They always seem to be able to talk about it easily when faced with a human...but unlike me , I always had to work up the courage to face humans. They've talked about the cowardice of humans, and I've scared off, or fought off, plenty of them, but I still have a fear of them.
Maybe it's from being beaten as a child, or maybe it's from being taught a lesson for fighting back when I was older...
Either way I can't face humans properly.
I scare them away when they approach my territory, or run away for now...
There is no Nidoran in this forest... I miss the girl I played with... but she stopped in front of that hole...
I don't know how she is now, and I don't think about it anymore...
Today's I met two more humans, a man and a woman. They both looked young, and young, among human trainers often means weak.
From their demeanor... they didn't seem to have little to no experience surviving in the wild either, which was a good sign for me, newbies often meant I didn't have to go next door to the Kangaskhan's house for a while, so I stormed out, snarling menacingly, I wanted them to get scared and get out of my territory!
[Stay out of my life!!!].
And then I have no recollection of what followed...
——————————
"That's what he just said! Loto! So pitiful! Loto!"
The screen ended up using a laughing and crying emoticon...
What kind of bad intentions does Rotom have again?
...He just doesn't have good intentions, okay!
Rope and Whitley listened to Rotom's translation, looked at the large Nidoking who was crouching on the ground, and were momentarily speechless, not knowing what to say...
This guy isn't too bold, isn't too weak, and doesn't have a strong personality...
The mouth is quite hard.
But the head is not very hard...
Nidoking covered his head, he could feel where a huge bag had bulged.
[Damnable human, why can he knock me with his fist even if it hurts so much!]
Nidoking thought rather sadly as he shed tears.
Whitley looked at Nidoking's huge head full of bags, and then looked at Rope's fist, and momentarily did not know what to say.
Suddenly it felt like the Nidoking in front of her was the victim, and Rope was the accused...
No... that seems to be the case.
Nidoking didn't intend to hurt them in the first place, but he has already been hurt by Rope...
So pitiful...
Whitley couldn't help but use a compassionate gaze when he looked at Nidoking.
Nidoking felt Whitley's gaze, and became even more aggrieved...
[I'm being looked down upon by humans again... I'm so pitiful... Wuwuwu...]
Rope was also helpless, who let the beginning of the questioning when this guy insisted on putting on a look of preferring death to disobedience, so Rope can only move to force a confession, you know as the most loving Pokémon, you have to know as a As the one who loves Pokémon the most, how can he just rough up the Pokémon?
But Rope doesn't feel guilty about roughing up this Nidoking. Who knows if you were trying to be scary or if you really wanted to finish us off. There's really no psychological burden at all in beating you up, right?
"Rope, is this guy... a Pokémon abandoned by humans?"
Whitley stared at Nidoking for a moment before asking.
Nidoking was definitely not rare in the wild, after all, Nidoking's evolution required Moon Stones, and Moon Stones were quite plentiful near Mt. Moon, but this place was half a Kanto away from Mt. Moon.
So the most likely reason for this Nidoking to appear is that it was released by humans.
But it sounded like they were a lot of Pokémon surviving together, so according to speculation... it should be a place similar to a large research institute.
But before Rope could answer, Whitley overrode his thoughts...
"No... this guy couldn't have escaped from the Safari Zone!"
Whitley looked like he suddenly thought of something, then said.
"How did you guess?"
Rope looked at Whitley and asked with interest.
"A lot of different species of Pokémon are clustered together, which is not an easy thing to do in the first place. The only people in the Kanto region who have the ability to set up an institute like this are you and Professor Oak, but if you and Professor Oak don't have it, plus there's the Safari Zone right nearby. So I think that he's coming from the Safari Zone!"
Whitley was close to writing the words 'compliment me' on his face.
"Pretty smart, but pretty dumb too."
Obviously, Rope didn't get the compliment she was hoping for.
"Then tell me what's going on!"
Whitley asked as she clasped her hands to her chest and rolled her eyes at Rope.
"Kangaskhan is only available in Kanto at the Safari Zone."
Rope spreads his hands with a look of masterful loneliness...
Whitley's face freezes.
Rope looked at Nidoking and sighed softly...
"It looks like it's not just Legendary Pokémon that have to communicate with humans... the Safari Zone may have such and such shortcomings, but with the Alliance watching over it, it's not enough to plot against Pokémon! ..."
