Two years ago, a boy came into my laboratory. He said his name was Ash. He wanted to take one of my starters, the Charmander. He offered me money. I declined. Any professor would. That night, as I was leaving my office, I was attacked. He threw a sack over my head, he hogtied me, and he drove me out into Lavender Town. And when he pulled the hood off, I was kneeling in front of an open grave, with a Remoraid pointed at my head.That was my introduction to Pokemon Trainer Red.From that moment on, there hasn't been a minute that I wasn't afraid. Yeah. I worked for him. I made a lot of money. I observed the Pokemon he caught. But that's not why I did it. I did it because I knew what he would do to me if I refused. Over and over, I thought about going to the police. I even thought about talking to Agent Looker. But I knew that Red would kill me, wherever I was. And I was right. You look it up. October 4, 2009. He murdered ten men inside three gyms in the space of two minutes. Electrocuted. Drowned. A man was burned alive by his Charizard. They even killed one of my colleagues, an assistant professor. He was cooperating with the police. Officer Jenny. The news said he was stabbed by vines from a Venusaur. So, yeah, when it all blew up, I ran. But not from the police. From him. People think Red might be dead, but is he really? He's still out there, somewhere on some mountain.Ms. Cynthia...you are looking at a man who has lost everything. My profession. My family. My freedom. I have...I have nobody. I have nothing.
>Why were you working against me, Ditto?!>...You're not a real Pokemon. >I'm what?>You're not a real Pokemon! "Pokémon GO", for Arceus' sake? A mobile game? What a joke! I worked my ass off to get where I am! And you take these shortcuts and you think suddenly you're my peer? You do what I do because you're given a second evolution? I committed my life to this! You don't slide into it like a cheap pair of slippers and then reap all the rewards!>I thought you were proud of me...>I was! When you straightened out and got a job in "Let's Go", I was very proud!>So that's it then, right? Keep ol' Meltan down in the spinoffs, 'cause he's not good enough to be in the mainlines. >I know you. I know what you were, what you are. Pokemon don't change! You're a fan design! And fan designs I can handle just fine, but a fan design in a mainline game is like a Chimchar with a machine gun! The series is sacred! If you abuse that power, fans get mad! This is not a game! You have to know - on some level, I know you know I'm right. You know I'm right!>... >...>I...I got you a 20-pound bag of Ice Stones and some Emboars, and some eggs, and a couple of those berries that you like. Some Metal Coats, it's enough for three or four days. After that, you're on your own. I am done.
>>58763715Schizo--I AM NOT CRAZY!I am not crazy! I know Oak swapped those colors. I knew it was Blue. One before Green. As if I could ever make such a mistake. Never. Never! I just - I just couldn't prove it. He covered his tracks, got that idiot at on /vp/ to lie for him. You think this is something? You think this is bad? This - this chicanery? He's done worse. That affair with Agatha! Are you telling me that a man just happens to be poised to become Champion but then doesn't in favor of his grandson? No! *He* orchestrated it! Blue! He *defecated* through a *sunroof*! And I saved him! And I shouldn't have. I took him back to my lab in Sandgem! What was I *thinking*? He'll never change. They'll both *never* change! Ever since he was 9, *always* the same! Couldn't keep his hands out of the Pokeballs! "But not our Blue! Couldn't be precious *Blue*!" Killing his own Raticate! And *HE* gets to be Champion? And *HIS* grandfather gets to be Champion? What a sick joke! I should've let Cyrus win when I had the chance!
