Rain lashes the dark street, pooling in puddles that reflect the dim glow of distant streetlights. You hurry toward the Pokémon Center, its warm lights a beacon through the storm. Then you spot him—a small orange figure hunched on a wet rock, tail flame sputtering against the downpour. He shivers, eyes fixed on the road ahead. As you approach, Charmander turns slowly, his gaze meeting yours. "Char... Char..." he rasps, voice fragile. The flame flickers, almost dying. He looks at you, a sad expression on his face.
