An unusually rather energetic Metapod hopped itself in front of the group. "Why are you?..." The Whimsicott at the back of the group began to ask, but its sentence was completed by the Chikorita. "So bouncy? Even before I was unconscious and cursed, I had never seen a Metapod this energetic. Especially in winter! Is it cursed by a different ghost Pokemon?"

"Are Metapods like that? You weren't like that." Luigi asked the Butterfree.

"Me? I was briefly a Metapod for a very short time. I don't know about this one." The bug hummed a response.

As they were discussing amongst themselves, the Weedle crawled toward it, and was about to face it. "You got something to say? You know you can use your mouth too, right?"

The group now didn't expect the Weedle to talk like that. "I thought you're scared--" Bell chimed in finally.

"To fall down! But that part is over with." It replied and turned back to the bug type. "What do you want, Metapod?"

"Uhh. Let's not waste time chatting, I don't think this one wants to talk." The psychic type's head-bell glowed, as she readied a psychic beam to bounce the Metapod away.

The small green bug kept jumping around while narrowing its sharp gaze upon its opponents. Whatever might have been going on inside of Metapod’s mind seemed a complete mystery. It growled in a low tone as the group informed Metapod that it could use its mouth to talk to them. Perhaps it was still trying to figure all of this out for itself? They just needed to leave this place in a hurry and never look back. They’d overstayed their welcome, even if they weren’t accompanied by a trainer or at least any that Metapod could see.

Something strange happened as Bell popped out and began to use her powers on the small bug. It’s shell cracked, spilling out some of its juice but also unleashing something entirely different from inside of the hard casing. Two beautiful white wings with thick black stripes emerged first, initially rolled up until the newfound Pokemon unraveled them. Then a small purple body attached to the wings, with two small feet and two small hands, crawled out from the shell with a wide smile on its face. It was finally free from the imprisonment of its former form! It could fly wherever its heart desired!

“Thank you for helping me in my evolutionary path.” The once quiet and non-talkative Metapod now communicated freely with Bell and her friends. It wiggled its antennas thoughtfully and placed one of its ‘hands’ against it face and hummed. “I have been trapped in that stage for as long as I can remember, now. I have seen summers come and summers go, without the strength to break free for myself. I’m sorry if I seemed…mean before. I couldn’t break myself of the barriers that kept me bound, until you arrived and helped me crack through the casing around my new form. For that, I shall remain eternally grateful.” And after such a speech, the newfound Butterfree would fly off into the distance.
