Deep in Celadon Forest, Icy awoke to a half-dozen Caterpie on
top of him. “AHHH!!!” he screamed as he got up, sending the Caterpie flying.
“Opps, sorry.” They crawled around looking for nice, juicy leaves to snack
on. The rest of Icy’s pokémon also looked around for food. Icy found some
bright red apples and shared them with the others. After breakfast, they all
spent some time training and playing games.
Icy and his pokémon took a walk through the forest.
Sunlight poured through the trees and sparkled off water droplets. It was such a
beautiful day and Icy wanted to do something special with his pokémon. They
found a clearing which had some rocks scattered and a few small flowers. Swarms
of Butterfree fluttered overhead. Icy’s Caterpie looked up at their evolved
forms with awe.
Finally, Icy decided to have a picnic with his pokémon.
He sent Abra and Porygon to go find some good food. While they were gone, he set
up the picnic. A few minutes later, Abra and Porygon returned with enough food
to last the night. They put the food out and everyone ate.
After finishing their lunch, Icy let them play in the
clearing. The Butterfree he had seen earlier that day came back and began
playing with his pokémon. It would take a long time for any of Icy’s Caterpie
to evolve into Butterfree. As he watched them, one stood out. It had green
tipped wings and a light green body instead of the normal blue and was slightly
smaller than the other Butterfree. Immediately, Icy felt a strange calling to
it. Something inside of him was saying, this was the one. “I want that
one...,” Icy thought.
Icy called Abra to his side, then called for the green
Butterfree. Icy proposed a contest between Abra and Butterfree. If Abra won, Icy
got to capture Butterfree, and if Butterfree won, Icy would give all the
Butterfree lots of food. They agreed to the term and the contest began.
“Abra, he doesn’t look that tough, just use your
confusion attack.” Abra fired his confusion attack at the Butterfree, who
evaded it with amazing agility. Then, Icy noticed Butterfree glowing and just
before it could fire its psybeam at Abra, Abra teleported. “Whoa. Looks are
deceiving... No matter. Abra, psybeam now!” Abra’s psybeam knocked
Butterfree clear out of the sky. Icy won the contest and captured the Butterfree.
They all spent the remainder of the day playing with the
other Butterfree. Icy sat down caring for Butterfree’s wounds. After it was
ok, they joined the others in their games. Icy was so happy with his new
Butterfree that he decided to share his food with the Butterfree anyway. They
promised to take Icy and his pokémon for flying lessons if they had the time
the next day. Icy happily agreed and as the sun set, Icy wondered about all the
pokémon he would see at the Pokémon Auction in Celadon City.
