You are a level 2 pidgey on route 1. Among your many siblings, you were the runt. They have all moved on to other places, leaving you behind to fend for yourself. You thought about letting yourself get caught by a trainer, but you have heard stories of what happens to low-level pokemon caught by trainers, stories that make your gizzard shake. You are not going to become a human's slave, you will have to make a name for yourself some other way, but first, you have to find some food.


Standard minimalist RTD.

1: complete failure, often with extra consequences.
2: fail
3: neutral
4: partial success
5: complete success
6: overshoot

Note: This takes place in Generation 1.

Dig around for delicious Earth-type Pokemon eggs.

3: You use your talons to dig around in the ground, but a level 5 rattata appears and starts taking the eggs for itself

[Dustan Hache]

Eat a catterpie, they tend to be even smaller than we are and they are weak to us!

5: You ignore the Rattata and fly to look for more food. You spot a level 2 catterpie among the trees. Normally, they aren't in this area, but you got lucky. It turns around to string-shot you, but your keen eye allows you to dodge it. You grab it in both your talons and rip into it until it goes limp. You land in a tree and feast on your catch. After eating half, you feel energized like you never felt before.

LEVEL UP

However, it seems another pidgey was not happy with your catch. A level 4 pidgey attacks you for the other half of the caterpie.

Status:
Level 3 Pidgey
Route 1

retreat a little ways away from it, let it get close to the other half of our meal, then tackle it and give it a all around good thrashing!

4: You squawk at the opposing pidgey, then fly away leaving the half-catterpie on the tree branch. The level 4 pidgey greedily flies over and grips the catterpie in it's talons, but you had circled around and you tackle it from the side, taking it by surprise. It drops the catterpie onto the ground while struggling to recover from your blow. The catterpie landed in a pile of leaves, where the Level 5 Rattata from earlier snatched it in its mouth and began chowing down. You could either fight the Rattata for the catterpie, or continue fighting the Level 4 pidgey, as you already have the advantage.

2: You quickly look for alternate food sources, but there are no metapods on Route 1. You would have to fly northward to find some. You need some more food before you make a long journey like that.

[ziizo]

try to find berries

try to find berries

2: You ignore both the Rattata and the Pidgey and fly off to look for berries. You find a bundle hanging in a tree, but before you get to it, the other Pidgey tackles you from behind, knocking the wind out of you and sending you tumbling to the ground. (Minus 1 for next 3 moves)

[hector13]

practice some moves on the trees

[Urist Reborn]

((How strictly are we sticking to gen I? Specifically, are berries, such as Oran berries, even present here?))

[origamiscienceguy]

practice some moves on the trees

4-1=3 The pidgey flies off to fight with the Rattata over the catterpie, leaving you alone. You practice tackling the trees, but you don't feel any progress.

(Also, are we all different pidgeys or just one being controlled by everyone?)
