Prompt:
A cluster of Gastly huddled together against a fairly large tombstone. They were shielding against the wind. It was surprisingly a windy day in the cemetery, a solid 25 mph gust that swirled their outer forms with discomfort as dusk began to settle. Being made up of 95% poisonous gas, its quite easy to be blown away by strong gusts despite being able to defeat even the largest foes by enveloping them in stated poisonous gas. It was best to wait the weather conditions in the safety of numbers.
"Heh! Just as predicted!" A few squinted eyes peeked up to address the voice. "Right time of day- check! Use of the weather- check! One of you GASTLY's will be mine!" An approaching human with a NATU hopping beside them took a pose, insinuating a challenge. "Now which one.." The group of gastly began to grumble to each other. Who did this kid think they were? "NATU! Use PECK!" The bird-looking pokemon lunged forward, scattering the crowd of gastly to avoid the attack... except one. While the rest evaded and went for new shelter, occasionally being blown off course of escape, one was unaware in deep slumber until it was awoken from the hit.
Gastly took 5 damage. "GaAH-" Gastly winced then glared. "Gas, Gastly!?"
"Nat- tu tu, natu!" Natu screeched back.
"Alright! Way to go NATU!" The trainer encouraged. "Again, PECK!"
Gastly took 5 damage. Gastly flinched. "Hm, maybe I overestimated these guys. Easier for me.. NATU, use PECK again!"
"Gast-GASTLY-GASTL-" Gastly stuttered, looking to the sides of the protective tombstone for any other sort of cover. How could he escape? Another hit snatched him away from those thoughts.
Gastly took 5 damage. "GAHS!" He snapped in frustration.
The trainer took out a red and white sphere from their pocket as they continued to give commands to their pal. "C'mon, NATU! Again! PECK!"
Gastly wasnt familiar with the object. He wasn't familiar with ANY of this! Why was a bird listening to a human? Why couldnt he just sleep in the nest of his friends? This was confusing! It was.. so.. confusing!
Gastly dodged. "Huh?" Gastly managed to scoot aside enough for the Natu to miss- barely escaping the wind pulling past the stone tablet- and huffed. Injured, tired, frustrated- Gastly felt a manifestation of energy form infront of their forehead. "Ghast..LY!"
Gastly used Confuse Ray! The Natu was hit dead on with the proximity, earning a startled gasp from the trainer.
"NATU! Are you alright?" The little bird wobbled as sparkling stars circled its head.
Natu is confused! "NATU! We're close to capturing this GHASTLY- hold on a little longer, use PECK!" The Natu steadied itself.. then face planted into the ground.
Natu hurt itself in confusion! "WHAAA?! You cant be serious! NATU- let me cure that!"
"Gast?" Ghastly titled its axis in mild interest then gave a short snort of amusement. This could prove to be an opportunity. Looking between the trainer and feathered dizzy fighter, Ghastly wisped away.
The Wild gastly ran away! The last thing he heard was a wail of disappointment. From the tombstone he continued taking his time hiding behind other stones until he floated into a nearby tree.
The ghost pokemon silently settled amongst the branches, giving a sigh of relief. He felt weak, but assured itself that he would be alright with some rest. As he closed his eyes, he recalled the move he responded with towards the Natu. Confuse Ray. He couldnt remember how he knew what it was, but he just.. knew. Maybe it was luck. Maybe it was
a power inside.
