At least that was one bird I didn’t need to catch… he thought as he looked around the area once more; accompanied again by William the Wooloo. ‘Tell me,’ the ovine would hum from somewhere near his legs, ‘…are all humans like that? Crazy?’ “Well… some are. But some of them have their own distinct ‘styles’, and I think she’s one of those that has those unique things about themselves,” he would explain. ‘Oh.’ “Why, still confounded about what she did when we encountered her earlier?” he would confirm with the ovine; who would then nod their confusion. SAM!

But aren’t you like, the same or so?’ “Who, me?” he would blink, before looking up into the canopy overhead. The pair of eyes observing them would disappear without further ruckus. “See, what I want to do is fly in the skies above. I don’t know why, but I’ve always been drawn to reaching for the sky and not being stuck on the ground,” he would hum while the Wooloo listened to his every word. SAM!

While he was waxing poetic about being up in the sky and feeling like an airplane, the Wooloo would have a staring showdown with the bunch of eggs… ‘Hey. You’re not the one we need,’ he would bleat; rolling into position in front of the human who was still rambling about wanting to fly in the skies. It wouldn’t take too long for the Exeggcute to get the hint; and eventually depart from their path—before William would return his attention to the human still going on miles about flying without wings in the sky. SAM!

Will, did you say something?” he would ask, finally looking down to see that the ovine was munching on grass, yet again. It would take a while before he would get an answer, seeing as the Wooloo had found this particularly juicy patch of grass and was working his way through it. ‘No… not really,’ the ovine would answer truthfully. “Well… you know. I want to be like, an airplane, but without the wings. That would feel so weird,” he would hum as they moved on. ‘Why’s that?’ “How can you hide wings in public?!” SAM!

Them,” he would hum unimpressed, as he placed both his hands on his hips. “What is up? Where are the tropical birds?!” he would wail a few moments afterward; was he in the wrong area again? ‘Shoo!’ the Wooloo would bleat; rolling up into a ball of white and attempting to bowl the Exeggcute away; as even he was in no mood to fight a bunch of eggs! “Huh. You’re also violent?” he would blink at this revelation. ‘What? You thought I was just a mushroom-licking, perpetually greedy little shit? Nope!’ “Hey!” ‘Your words, not mine!’ SAM!

SAM!

Were the ‘starter’ Pokémon more common than the actual common classified Pikipek out here?! Or was his RNG just… going bonkers at the moment?! ‘Ooh, go ahead, try to burn me, you little monkey!’ the Wooloo would taunt the Chimchar; before the simian Pokémon would give them this extremely confused look; this was before the human would then apologize on behalf of the insanity that his Pokémon was getting tangled up in. “Sorry!” he would call as he led the Wooloo away from the Fire-type. ‘Unless we’re looking in the wrong place?’ “I hope not!” he would exclaim. SAM!

That’s all we ask!’ the Wooloo voiced out his sentiments; and the human would nod; letting out a deep sigh because where were all the Pikipek hiding, anyway? (Despite him only playing up until the end of Generation Six, there were a few Pokémon from the later generations that had his fancy; and Pikipek from Generation Seven was one of them. He already had a Wooloo from Generation Eight, and that was all that mattered!) “I know, right?! Where are they all hiding?!” he would echo the ovine’s sentiments as well. SAM!

Just that—this wind—is so strong!” he continued as he leaned into the wind; the better to approach the goddamned avian; the better to try and catch them… battling high winds SAM!

I know you can do it!’ the Wooloo cheered him on while leaning against the tree; since it was strong enough to prevent him from being blown away. It wouldn’t take too long before he would finally manage to get as close as possible to the Pikipek… SAM!

Was it… dare he say it… Special?! The Pikipek let out a surprised squawking noise; however he wasn’t done yet! The Wooloo would continue cheering him on from far outside the ‘wind storm’ that was raging around the Pikipek; hoping that the crazy human could finally get what he was looking for. SAM!

It was a miracle he hadn’t been knocked down yet, all things considered… ‘Come on! I know you got this!’ he could hear the Wooloo cheering him on despite the very loud winds howling around the immediate area. SAM!

The moment the Pikipek crash-landed onto the grass was the time the high winds would stop blowing—and goodness, what an immediate mess the place turned out to be! “…yikes,” he would breathe out; a few moments later the Wooloo would come rolling in, coming to a stop as he hit his human companion’s boots gently. ‘There you are,’ the ovine would hum; before looking around at the disaster of a place where the Pikipek had finally fallen down from. “Not the best, but hey, we got what we came for!” he would cheer quietly; pulling out the golden Pokéball and then tapping it on the Pikipek’s forehead. Two sets of eyes watched as a beam of red light shot out of the Pokéball and they watched, waited… catch attempt on Pikipek! SAM!
