Last time, our hero Lewis battled with
the unofficial Gym leader Icy. After Buttercup defeated Marowak,
Static frying Pidgeot, and Alakazam and Hocus fought to a standoff, it was down
to Weedle and Gloom. Weedle was about to lose when it mysteriously
unleashed a psybeam attack! And now we join Lewis and Sara trying to
uncover the mystery...
“Weedle, just stay calm and stay under the light.”
Lewis said to Weedle as he went underneath a scanner. Sara looked
under a microscope and saw Weedle’s DNA. “It looks like standard
Weedle DNA. The only thing strange is a high number of intelligence
neurons.” Sara says. “Intelligence neurons?” Lewis
asks. “What gives bug Pokémon the advantage of being superior to psychic
type is that most don’t have a localized brain. Their mind is spread
out through neurons across their body, and when one is damaged, it can easily
be shut down and transferred to another neuron until it’s
repaired. There are a lot more then a standard Weedle in your
Weedle.” Sara explains. “Could that explain why Weedle fired a
psybeam?” Lewis asks. “I’m not sure. No Weedle in history
has fired a psybeam!” Sara says. “Well, this is very strange.” Lewis
says. Weedle crawls out. Lewis takes out a cellular
microscope and inspects Weedle. “This is fascinating!” Lewis
exclaims. “What?” Sara asks. “Look at this!” Lewis says,
handing over the cellular microscope. Sara looks into
it. The neurons were glowing! They were getting bright,
and energy was flowing through them. “I think I have an
explanation.” Sara says. “What?” Lewis asks. “Your
psychic, right?” Sara asks. “Yes. Most people from
Saffron are psychic.” Lewis replies. “Where did you catch this
Weedle?” Sara asks. “Just outside of Saffron, why?” Lewis
asks. “Your Weedle has psychic-type DNA in it. It must
have been descended from a psychic type Pokémon, so logically, you have the
rarest Weedle in the world because it knows psychic attacks! But
according to this it needs a lot of adrenaline to start the psy-attacks.” Sara
replies.
Lewis hugged his amazing Weedle that could psybeam.
“This is really cool, Weedle! I didn’t think this would be possible!”
Lewis says. Lewis walks back into the kitchen and recalls Weedle.
He starts making a cup of tea.
Kelly was looking at Lewis’s egg. “Hey Lewis, what is
that egg you have here?” Kelly asks.
“It’s a poke-egg. I found it when I was inside the
forest.”
“Can you tell us what’s inside of it?” Nicky asks.
“Well, let me check.” Lewis says. Lewis pulls out a strange
looking pokédex. It was more rectangular, and longer then wide. The
pokédex opened two ways: first a top part opened up, and then a second part
opened to the right. A bottom section about a half-inch long didn’t open
at all. The pokédex showed the picture of the egg, and it said, “A
poke-egg. Information available: a normal type Pokémon resides
within. Current mass: 4 lbs. No other information available.”
“What kind of pokédex is that?” Icy asks.
“It’s a pokédex which won’t come out for another year or
two.” Lewis replies.
“Your family must be up in high places.” Nicky says.
“Yep. My dad is vice-president of the Silph Co., and
my Mom is a programmed for the pokédex.” Lewis replies. Suddenly, the egg
starts shaking. Lewis runs over to it just as the egg starts cracking
enough! A leg comes out! Another! Two arms pop out! The
shell cracks off!
The small Pokémon opens it’s eyes for the first time and
says, “Jiggly! Puff puff!” Lewis pulls out the pokédex again which
says, “Jigglypuff: a balloon Pokémon. Uses its alluring eyes to enrapture
its foe. It then sings a pleasing melody that lulls the foe to sleep.”
“It’s not as cute a Togepi, but it’s still the cutest thing
ever!” Lewis says.
