[[And just grinning at that.]]

Well, their sprites weren't the only ones that kept their changes. When the player sent out his Celebi, it too kept it's amputations. And, unlike the normal signifier for a shiny Pokemon - which I suppose is some small sparkle, accompanied by a pleasant ring - the sound that played now was far more like several screeches all started at once.

Red, of course, sent out a Pikachu. Expected, yes? And it seemed like a rather normal Pikachu as well, only its own sprite had undergone a few tweaks.

Instead of the normal perkiness a Pikachu typically holds, this one looked sad. Mournful, almost, with tears in its eyes. Somehow, it was also level two-hundred and fifty-five, but that's merely a technicality issue, right?

Now, this is about the time in which you are offered your normal fight menu. You can choose to attack, to run, to switch Pokemon or use an item correct? Unfortunately for our hero, he was only given the option to attack.

And Celebi only had one attack.

The Pikachu, being the level that it was, went first thanks to its superior speed. It used Curse, an attack which Pikachu cannot normally use. Celebi, of course, used Perish Song.

Both Pokemon, in three turns, would be knocked out.

And here is where the battle began playing itself, disallowing the student any further interference.

The Pikachu used Flail, which did little to either Pokemon, while once again Celebi used Perish Song. That did nothing, as it was already in affect.

The, the Pikachu used Frustration. This knocked his Celebi down to ten HP. The Celebi, however, decided to make up for this loss using an attack it didn't know previously. Pain Split. This cut their lives in half, leaving both with one hundred and fifty. Pikachu then used Mean Look, which did absolutely nothing.

That was when Perish Song took hold, gripping both Pokemon and aiming to knock them out as it was supposed to. It worked well on Celebi, though when the Pokemon fainted, the player was informed that it had died, and then the backsprite simply vanished.

Pikachu, however, was still standing, and much to the student's surprise, used another move. One outside the five move limit.

Destiny Bond.

It, too, "died".
