Description
Yeah, this was funnier in my head when I had been up for 18 hours straight, in the wee hours of 2 A.M. I try to make jokes that, even if you had not played the game, you would still get it. When I was drawing this, I needed a threat that was vague enough to be funny, yet needed to be in-game. "Releasing into the wild" was okay, but not everyone knows you can release the Pokemon you've caught and don't want anymore. I also contemplated sending them to a "breeding farm", but again, not everyone knows that you can breed Pokemon. I then thought of the box system for storing your seventh and up Pokemon. Shoving a mass number of Pokemon into a box seems cruel, and when I first saw it in the original Red, I first thought of a massive crate, and all the Pokemon inside cramped, cold, and uncomfortable. I guess this is all coming back in this strip, as Pidgey genuinely seems fearful of the box. Or is it just me?Also, I don't see how I expect a Metapod, a Pidgey, and a Pikachu to beat Brock. That's just mean, I think.

lol! "the box" for me is a pc box named "the box" and only the pokemon that have terrible luck in battles go there. There are only 3 in my platinum game that bad, my bidoof, my starly with terrible stats, and my kriketot that misses HALF of its attacks, all are pretty bad pokemon really.

Ideally, Mankey should have absolutely nothing to worry about.

I think the Pidgey looks more concerned for your mental health....then again it's a pidgey, you can't get much worse then being that anyway.

I don't know... you could be a Rattata. Pidgey at least evolves into something useful.

That's true....or be that weird beaver thing from the D/P games.

Bidoof? Yeah, he's pretty worthless too.

Yeah, compared to him, atleast Raticate looks nifty.
