Hi. Ready?

lets do this

Thunder looked behind him. They were still there. Two Pokemon that wanted to be in Takuma's group. They were still following him.

Don't they ever give up? he thought.

If you wanted to be in the bully Pokemon's gang, you had to do a few things first. One of those things was to follow the small Pikachu around, and then beat him up afterwards. The Electric-type wasn't too keen on that happening again.

He saw that they were getting a bit closer to him each time he turned around to face them. It was only a matter of time now, then he'd be in a world of pain and hurt.

Thunder was close to Poke Market, this he knew. Maybe he could duck into a store and lay low for a little while. That sounded like a good idea to him. The shiny Pikachu made a mad dash to the market, his paws carrying him as fast they would allow him to go. The shiny Pikachu raced into the closest shop he could find, and slowly backed away from the door and windows.

And right into someone.

He squeaked in shock and fear, and spun around, his eyes wide as he stared up at whoever it was that he had backed into. It was a Raichu, though this one didn't look like he was from Pikachu Village, the Pikachu was sure of this. He would have seen the older Pokemon there before, right? Another thing the smaller Pokemon noticed, was that the Raichu wasn't a normal colored one. Instead of being orange, this one was black and green. Not that he minded, he thought this one looked better than most Raichu he had seen in his short life so far.

Wait, better looking? Just what the hell was he thinking? He knew he shouldn't be thinking such things like that. It was wrong, wasn't it? That was what most Pokemon said. Liking the same gender was wrong. So, why was he thinking such things now?

Shaking the thoughts away, Thunder stared up at the Raichu, and took a small step back away from him.

Greechu... the green and black Raichu looked at the tiny shiny Pikachu and just stared for a moment before grumbling at him and asking "In a rush now are we?" he took a step closer to the Pikachu

Thunder gulped and pinned his ears back, taking another step away from the older Electric-type. "I-I guess you could say that.." he muttered, more to himself then to the Raichu.

He glanced back at the door, he didn't see the two Pokémon out there any more. He breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank Mew... Now I can go.. he thought. Oh! Wait, I almost for got the whole reason why I went to Poke Market in the first place..

The Pikachu looked around the shop to see what all was there, before he turned back to the Raichu.

"Um... Do you have any games?"

"indeed we do... what kind of games are you looking for? we have games of all kinds... from fun games to boring games" the Raichu chuckled

"Umm.. Something a large group can play," Thunder said. "I need one for a party.."

"We have plenty of those"

"Alright... That's... Good.." the Pikachu said. "So.. Umm.."

"Want me to take you to the games?"

"I guess..?"

Greechu shook his head as he walked to the back room

Thunder quickly followed after him.

Greechu had grabbed a game out of a box "Here is the game I think you need"

The little Pikachu looked at the box in the Raichu's paws. "What is it?"

"a game"

He rolled his eyes. Of course it's a game. But what kind?

Thunder took it and gave the box a once over. It felt warm against his paws, as though it was heated. The box was a small golden color, that had odd markings on it. The title of the game read: The Forbidden Game. The Pikachu's eyes widened at this. A forbidden game? Why was it forbidden? What was so bad about it, that it was named such a thing?

Being the gamer he was, he felt as though he had to go and play it. Something about it was telling him to. Yet, there was a part of him that was telling him not to.

"Umm.. How much is it?" the smaller Pokémon asked, looking at the Raichu.

"It's free"

"Free?" he echoed.

How could a game like this be free? Thunder shrugged it off. At least he wouldn't have to pay for it.

"yes... free"

Thunder looked down at the golden box in his tiny paws. Did he really want this game? Wave did enjoy old board games like this, and it was the Water-type's birthday today. So it was ether this, or nothing.

"Alright.." the Pikachu said after a moment. "Well, thank you. Um... See you later I guess?"

With that, the little Pokemon turned and headed off. He thought he heard something like 'See you at nine', but he took it as 'See you later', and ran out the door.

(Mmm.. Should we do a time-skip to when they're setting up the game, or to when they're in the game?)

((yes skip XD))

(Okay. XD.)

Thunder groaned and slowly opened his eyes. He sat up having been laying on a cold, hard, wooden floor. The Pikachu saw all his friends, still out cold, and went to the closest one. That being Wave. He shook the Water-type Pokémon until he woke up. The two then went and woke the rest of the group up.

"Where are we?" Willow asked.

"It looks like a house of some kind," Rocket replied.

"Yeah, but why are we here?" Fang questioned.

"To play the Game of course," a voice said.

Everyone turned to see who had spoken. It was a Snivy, like Willow, only this one was black-and-red, with red eyes to match. What was beside the Grass-type, made Thunder gasp in shock.

It's the Raichu from before!
