The One I Hate
Some loathe yellow snakes that glare
Flinch and ‘hax’ with a stupid stare
You hate trash bags? Must not care…
Floating ice cream? They won’t dare
Shark-like dragons, flaming apes
Blue blunt dolls that stop escapes
Eyeless fiends in crooked capes
Plain pink blobs that change their shapes
But I’m not here to speak of that
Or the glare from all Patrat
Nor metal ants or swarming bats
So let’s move on from idle chat
I’m here to speak of one small thing
A round body, spindly wings
Some zigzag patterns on this being
I can’t forget it, even trying
Finding it on Pokémon White
I never thought to see this fright
The time of day, it wasn't night
As I rhyme-recite this plight
My avatar was more than miffed
Us trapped inside this sandy rift
It was then my heart, it skipped
For we had just been…Sigilyph’d
I threw my DS across the room
At this sight of twisted gloom
While under a forbidden tomb
I knew I had just met my doom
I felt my team consumed with dread
A feeling we weren’t apt to shed
Where exactly was its head?
I only whined, “We are so dead.”
It glared at us with that third eye
My Servine had no chance to try
For no Pokémon wished to die
We all thought the end was nigh
Then all at once, it fell facedown
My Growlithe growling with a frown
No longer with its doomy crown
We left before it came around
We then came to the Elite Four
Floating up, there was no floor
To Caitlyn, to begin the war
Then it came again once more
That Sigilyph was quite obscene
It struck my spider with Ice Beam
Galvantula countered with a scream
Thunder struck and cleared the scene
So that ends my chanting tale
Hopefully I’ve cleared the veil
Of the one I hate, it surely fails
I’ll finish before the poem stales
It may be up for all debate
But I’ve made clear the one I hate
Sigilyph and its frightening trait
But I’ll rant no more, it’s getting late.
