Surprise! Turns out I was able to think of a cool plot detailing what happened to Chikorita when she was teleported to Prismatic Jungle in the past! I literally had no clue how this could go without the story being really sad and Chikorita likely scarred...until the day I bought my copy of Pokemon Black 2. I wanted a Snivy again, but was getting bored of never giving him a nickname, until I suddenly thought of "Chai" for him. And thus, the inspiration for Chai the Servine was made, marking him the very first character to ever be inspired by a Pokemon in a game I played! (His personality here is WAY different than the "Docile" nature he has in game, haha.)

In addition, the title of the story, "Survival of the Cutest", was inspired by a certain self-contained original manga story I thought of a while ago of the same name, featuring a 7-year-old girl who is captured and taken to an alien planet, and has to figure out a way to get back home, even if she has to stand up to her captors to do so. All I had to do was cast Chikorita in the role of said little girl, Tivoli in the role of the primary villian, Chai in the role of the one character who helps the little girl, and Sherri as...well, one of the people they end up saving from the bad guys. Plus, it was a big bonus that Chikorita could just be teleported to the Prismatic Jungle instead of me having to go through the whole "abduction and hyperdrive sequence" procedure.

This will be a WRITTEN entry (something I haven't done since Mission 3, so I really hope I do well this time!), not just because another comic would take too long, but because I wanted to delve deep into Chikorita's state of mind for this mission, and prose is really the best way for me to get such psychological things across as obviously as possible. Plus, Chikorita wants to be a writer and is better at writing than art, so yay for stuff that makes sense character-wise!

I've already got the whole story typed up over Thanksgiving break, so all I have to do is revise it one more time. Prepare to be flooded by 8 parts of prose! (I'm also aware that there are a number of people who tend to skip over such things. To those people, I'm warning you now: If you skip over this story, you will miss a CRUCIAL component of the character change that Chikorita will go through!)

NPCs primarily featured in this story:

:bulletblack: Tivoli the Tyranitar and Sherri the Cherrim are NPCs belonging to #PMD-Explorers.
:bulletblack: Chai the Servine (Personal NPC by me)
