I had gotten used copies of games before that wouldn't start or had sound glitches and that sort of thing. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary, thankfully. Once I got home, I headed up to my room and popped SoulSilver in. I paid for them without any problems and left the store. ![]() They had both Diamond and SoulSilver, slightly used, but supposedly still in good shape. They usually had a bunch of used games in a case near the front, so it hopefully wouldn't be too much of a problem. Since I had a little extra money from work, I decided to head over to my local game store and see if they had any replacements, though finding Pearl, Platinum, or SoulSilver would be just as good. It didn't help that the cartridges were so tiny, either. Being a slob really did have its disadvantages sometimes. Though I remember having copies of Diamond and HeartGold somewhere, I couldn't find them. After a while, I shut off my DS and decided to look around. As I sat there, EXP farming the elite four like I often did to raise my lower leveled Pokemon, I vaguely wondered if I had any other versions lying around my room. I had been playing nothing but fifth gen for a while and craved something new. With my copy of X already preordered, I was pretty excited about the entire thing. I was playing my copy of Black, like I usually did on lazy Saturday afternoons. It all started about a month before the release of X and Y. Well, you don't really want to hear about all that, do you? I have a story to tell and I'm pretty sure you're all much more interested in that than what I did when I was a kid. ![]() Regardless, I soon was one of the only people in my nerdy little group of buddies that still played the games. After all, every gen had its own share of lame designs. Most of them complained about the new games lacking originality when it came to the designs of the Pokemon, but I never shared their thoughts. Yet, as we grew older and the newer generations of the game came out, my friends started to lose interest. We always had a lot of fun with it, trading, battling, even sharing tips with one another on how to get the most out of the experience. As a nerdy sort of kid who grew up in the late nineties, it was one of the staples of my childhood, a game that I could always get together with my friends and play. However, there still remains one relic from (presumably) around the time the lullaby was first written: a video bringing the words of Hypno to life.This wasn't made by me the poem was made by amazing anon and I copied it fromĪh.Pokemon. Information on when or where the creepypasta was first published is extremely scarce at best, but it is likely that it first emerged sometime in 2010. However, Hypno’s Lullaby is an astonishing exception, remaining anonymous for over eleven years now. ![]() Many authors of famous creepypastas such as Ben Drowned, the NES Godzilla Creepypasta, and Sonic.EXE, have revealed themselves. But what is even more bone-chilling is the lack of information on the origins of the creepypasta itself. The premise of the whole poem was horrifying enough, with Hypno kidnapping loads of children and their fates left… open-ended. However, it would ultimately be the inspiration for the infamous lullaby. This entry shocked many players, especially considering the kid-friendly nature of the game. There once was an incident in which it took away a child it hypnotized.” ![]() In Pokémon FireRed, Hypno’s Pokédex entry reads, “It carries a pendulum-like device. The context behind the creation of the story actually came from an official source. But perhaps the eeriest and most mysterious of them all was Hypno’s Lullaby, based off of the psychic-type Pokémon, Hypno. Examples included Lavender Town Syndrome, Strangled Red, and Gary’s Raticate. The Pokémon franchise was no stranger to creepypastas, holding some of the most iconic of all times. These icons could’ve been from books, cartoons, or most prominently of all, video games. Creepypastas were (and still are) terrifying Internet tales that haunted the minds of children and adults alike, and of the most popular were those based off of popular childhood icons. In the early 2010s, a certain genre of storytelling peaked in popularity on the internet–creepypastas. But perhaps some of the greatest fears are those that tap into and infect some of people’s most treasured childhood memories. Fear–the source of all psychological terrors that torture the minds of many.
