Prologue

When your friend Neil asked if you could watch his Pokemon for a few days while he was out, you didn't really expect much from it. You just thought you were going to have to occasionally fill up a Skitty's food bowl, or give a Growlithe a few pets so that it didn't get separation anxiety. When you arrived at the deer's house, and picked up the spare key in the location where he had told you it would be, everything seemed relatively normal. That was, except for the pole that was off to the side of the deer's house, rather large and thick and with a long lead tied to it...that was a tiny bit strange, but also something you had seen before as well. Neil's house was rather nice; the deer had said that you were more than welcome to stay the night, and as you walked into the kitchen and took your shoes off, you were honestly considering taking up the deer's offer just from what you had seen in here alone! You still hadn't seen, or heard, anything from the Pokemon you were supposed to be taking care of, though. There weren't any bowls or feeders in the kitchen, either...maybe the Pokemon was asleep? Maybe it had its own room deeper in the house or something? That was an honest possibility, seeing how big this house was for somebody who apparently lived alone...

You got all the answers to your many questions as soon as you stepped through the kitchen and into the living room, though...you weren't exactly a fan of what you saw. Instead of a cute Pikachu or docile Togepi for you to take care of, Neil had left you with a massive, couch-filling Scolipede! Easily at least eight feet long from head to hoof, the beast took up the entire living room couch and then some, and even worse, he was alllll splayed out on his side. Legs spread, showing that shiny, black underbelly, and more shockingly for you, a pair of huge, black balls with a thick, purple shaft sticking out from on top of them! "Oh, geez, I don't need to see that..." you winced as you instinctively went to cover your face, the bug giving you a very casual look as it continued to laze around on the couch, making no effort to give you any room whatsoever! After you uncovered your eyes, though, you noticed the other things in this living room. Namely, two very large buckets that were sitting on the floor in front of the bug, a glass coffee table separating the two from each other. You walked over to these buckets, leaning over to see that one was full of all sorts of different colored and sized poffins, piled on top of each other to the point where they were almost overflowing! The contents of the other bucket were a bit more surprising, though. You looked down inside, and nearly winced once again as you saw a bucket that was absolutely full of squirming, floundering micros, all species and colors...you had heard of small people like this before, but you had never seen one until now, let alone as many as there were in this bucket...how the hell did Neil get bulk micros, anyway??

Either way...as you stood in front of the two buckets, the Scolipede looked at you. Expectantly. Waiting for you to start shoveling those buckets right into his mouth. And with how big the bug was, if you didn't treat him well, bad things were probably going to happen! Uuuggh...after all this was over, you were going to be demanding some payment from Neil, for sure...
