Pokémon- the infernal glitch (Part 2)

Yellow rushed to the "Elite" Four, flying on the back of his Togetic. He liked to put air quotes around the word "Elite" when referring to them because of how easily he kept beating them. (Incidentally, they always put air quotes around the word "Champion" when referring to Yellow because no champion other than the one hired by the Pokémon League ever stayed in the champion room like they were supposed to after winning.)

"Oh no. Not you again." Lorelai said as she saw Yellow approaching. "Listen, can I just give you your allowance and ask you to just leave? Or are you going to insist AGAIN to fight my Pokémon?"

"Forget you and your Pokémon! I want you to open that door!" Yellow called out!

"You know it's against the rules for me to do that unless you beat me."

"Fine! Then I shall best you in battle again!" Yellow exclaimed.

"I choose you: Go, Dewgong!" Lorelai roared.

"I choose you: SHOTGUN" Yellow said, pulling out the shotgun, and killing the Dewgong on the spot.

Lorelai, so shocked by this turn of events opened the door, and then threw herself onto the decorative icicles below. Yellow scoffed "Weak!", and then he ran through the door. An announcement went out over the PA. League Elites were to let Yellow through because he has a fucking shotgun.

"Hmm, makes sense to me." Yellow mused. "Alright, now let's see who this new champion is supposed to be!"

Rushing into the Champion's Walk, Yellow was surprised. Expecting to see Red, he had no idea he was going to run into this fellow. Standing before him was Blue.

"Ah, so I see you've come." Blue stated calmly.

"HA! It's just you! How did you ever get this far? Here I was worried and everything! You're nothing to fear. You're just Blue. Poor Blue, never able to beat anyone. Such a weakling." Yellow laughed.

"I'm no weakling, and I can prove it." Blue retorted. "In battle."

"Fine. Go! Umbreon!" Yellow shouted, throwing his luxury ball. His Umbreon emerged, and the stage suddenly seemed dark as night, Umbreon's markings giving off a pale and yellow light, like the moon.

"I choose you, go MissngNo. !" Blue said in a voice that sounded eerily like Auto-tune.

Blue threw his premiere ball, but the Pokémon that popped out... was it even a Pokémon  There he saw... a greyish block, it... looked odd. There were parts of Pokémon in there he thought he saw, but Yellow couldn't even give a good description of the thing.

"That doesn't look like a Pokémon at all! But I'll beat you anyway!" Yellow exclaimed, feeling the fear welling up deep inside it, but trying to force it down with anger. It wasn't working very well.

"MissngNo. ! Use Splash!" Blue exclaimed. Yellow burst into laughter! Splash! The worst attack any Pokémon ever knew. Limited to mainly Magikarp, the move was literally just flopping about where you are and not even hitting the opponent. What a joke.

Umbreon squealed in pain, and then collapsed in a heap, the light of its markings going out, and the room returning to its normal lighting. Yellow's mouth fell open.

"No. No way. That... that's impossible! I... I don't even! HOW!?" Yellow said, but then suddenly, he remembered he was in the middle of battle, so he withdrew his Umbreon, and sent out his Dragonite... but before he could even declare an attack, the world went all.. weird. There wasn't a way to describe it, the colors of everything swapped around, and everything went blocky.

When Yellow awoke, he was at his house, and he noticed he only had one pokéball with him. Fearing what may come next, he decided to open it. "Go, pokéball."

Out of it popped his Caterpie. Great. "What happened to all my other Pokémon?!"
Calling back his Caterpie, he strolled to the computer which he had installed a network connection to Oblivia's PC for Pokémon storage. He was shocked by what appeared on screen.

Empty boxes. Empty boxes galore. 30 Boxes without a single Pokémon  It just wasn't possible! Caterpie was now his only Pokémon in the world, and he didn't know how!
Opening his trainer case to grab the phone number of Professor Yew, he was startled to see something even worse. He was missing all his gym badges, except the last one he had earned.

Rushing out, Yellow ran from all the wild Pokémon and approached the first gym: the rock type. Bursting in through the doors, he demanded the gym leader give him a replacement badge.

"Sorry, but if you want a new badge, you're going to need to challenge me." The leader said calmly.

"But I already beat you once!" Yellow cried.

"One badge for beating me once. You lost it? Beat me again, and don't be so careless this time!"

"Alright, fine! Let's go!" Yellow said in a fit of rage, throwing his pokéball, and sending out his Caterpie. The rock leader sent out his Onyx.

"Caterpie, use string shot!" Yellow called, but Caterpie looked confused. "Ok, then use... uh... tackle" still no response "umm, oh for goodness sake do something!"

Caterpie smiled (smeyesed, actually, because it smiled with its eyes), and turned upon the Onyx unleashing a fierce Hydro Pump. Onyx fell to the ground, soaking and mostly crumbling into mud.

"Whoa. Okay, do another one!" Yellow called to his Caterpie as the gym leader sent out his Geodude. Caterpie suddenly called forth a huge wave of water, which it rode, crashing it into the Geodude.

Several Pokémon later, Yellow was once again the proud owner of a Boulder Badge.

"This is gonna be easy. But I still wonder why Caterpie knows these moves (it's awkward), and I'm also confused where all my other Pokémon went. I hope I'm not in over my head here." Yellow sighed as he left with a smile on his face.
