I always thought the pokemon Magikarp was harmless. After playing countless hours of pokemon on my ds, the pokemon magikarp never really appealed to me. I just thought it was a weak pokemon.
that was before I realized why magikarp was created. |

I didn't even know why magikarp was created. I knew it involved into a strong pokemon, but that was about all I knew.
I really didn't really wanted to know before, or cared, but that was before I actually caught one, or was forced to catch one, as I should put it. |

I was playing a copy of pokemon diamond. Everything was going smoothly, like normally.
After all, I beat this game like 6 times. I knew what I was doing.
When I got to jublife, the familiar jingle played.
I never stopped to get the fishing rod, or any type of rod, when I played this game in the past.
The reason was simple: It was useless to me. Why get a fishing rod, when it is really useless throughout the whole game?
I wanted to do something different though. Taking my time, I went through the house where the old man gives you a fishing rod for the first time. |

I had visited this place before, but not on this copy of the game. Previous copies of the game. It was always pointless and a waste of time to get the rod.
As I approached, I went up to the old man that has the rod, and pressed "A"
He said the familar chat as normal
" Do you like fishing?"
I wanted to be funny, and press ""no"
But the only scary part was, it wouldn't let me press no. It would only let me press "yes" So I did. |

When I pressed yes, the same chat continued
" Do you want to know how to use it?"
Knowing that it was easy to use, I pressed "no". But once again, it wouldn't let me press no, So i pressed yes.
The chat box was filled with giberish writing. just random words and symbols I couldn't understand. |

When the old man was talking, I just decided to leave, knowing it was pointless to actually try the thing out. But it wouldn't let me exit the way I came from. It would only let me continue to the lake.
when I got there, The lake looked normal. What was confusing was the name of the lake. It said "magikarp"
Not knowing what to do, I just went to the lake, got out my rod, and pressed "A"
What happened after that was freaky. |

I entered a pokemon battle as normal, and a magikarp appeared.
The magikarp appeared to have no fins or limbs. It just had three magikarp heads on to one.
The makikarp used splash. The attack almost took out my starter pokemom. |

The magikarp used splash again, knocking out my pokemon.
I couldn't believe it. The game skipped my turn.
Knowing that I had no other pokemon at this point, I was ready to except defeat. All I wanted was to get out of their.
But instead of the losing screen that I expected, It said I still had one pokemon left.
As it entered battle, I couldn't believe it. My last pokemon was a Magikarp. |

This time, it let me attack.
I studied the attacks I had
" splash"
" kill"
Kill!? I knew it was impossible for a pokemon to have such a move. |

I kept using splash, but it kept missing the pokemon. The game kept skipping the opponets turn, so I decided to use the move " kill"
As I pressed it, smoke filled the screen. Several unstable sounds went through my speakers. It soudned like frusterated screams.
As I washed in horror, the magikarp I was up against died. Blood gushed out of it, and it just layed there motionless. |

My magikarp died too. It just screamed a low fainting sound, and that was that.
After the battle was over, the screen went black.
" Rest in peace" the chat box said.
As the screen became visible again, it showed a cutscene of the two magikarps being buried.
Then, the screen zoomed out, not only showing two graves, but hundreads, thousands, of graves for dead makikarps.
Then the game just froze.
I shut the power off, then back on, but it said the game was corrupted, only leaving me to start a new game. |

My mind wondered about what had happened.
Why did all of the magikarps have to die? What was the purpose to this?
And then it hit me: No one cared about the Magikarp anyway.
I probably wasn't the only one who didn't care about the Magikarp.
Everyone thinks Magikarp is a weak and defenseless pokemon.
So if most people think that, then what purpoise does the pokemon actually have? it's as good as dead anyway.
Over the years, I lost the game, and the lesson the game tought me faded.
But once in a while, the lesson appears back into my mind.
Not to judge pokemon by it's power or strength, but by it's purpose. The good inside of it.
Don't judge someone by there outward appearance. But how they treat you, and everyone around you.
THE END. |
