You wake up to see your arcanine swallowing a pokeball which contained one of your pokemon. After failing to get them to spit it out, you reach into their mouth in an attempt to grab it with you hand even going down their throat but you soon find out that wasn't the best idea.

Next week's story on patreon is completely sfw since it is an origin story for my vaporeon Rain as well as my zoroark Loki. So while I know it won't be for everyone, any support is still appreciated.

The next gym was in a small village near the top of the mountain and with it being the seventh gym for most trainers, it was also one of the most difficult. Not only in terms of its gym leader but also the journey there. Steep rocky terrain all the way up with an ever increasing amount of snow the higher up you got. Blizzards were a near constant thing, either naturally or from many pokemon in the region brewing up a storm.

There were only a few stops along the way with only one of them being a proper pokecenter, the rest were cabins that let trainers stay a night to rest. While many tried to make it to each of these stops every night, many trainers would fail to do so from the heavy blizzards slowing them or getting lost entirely in the storm. You had been fortunate enough to reach the first two checkpoints without issue but the third was proving difficult.

Your arcanine had stayed out of its pokeball for the entire journey up the dangerous mountain. Both to protect you from other pokemon and to keep you warm enough to not get frostbite. None of the pokemon you came across were able to stand in your way but the large number of battles were starting to take their toll.

With night approaching, you were going to have to set up camp out in the cold. There was no sign of the next checkpoint and it was possible you were already lost with how little visibility you've had for the past few hours. You weren't sure where you'd be able to set up camp safely though since there was no cover in your current field of view.

It would take you another thirty minutes of walking before you saw some trees. If nothing else it was possible you were near the checkpoint since it was said to have plenty of pine trees around it. Not that you'd be able to find it now with the sun setting, lowering your visibility even further.The trees while not completely being able to protect you from the snow would at least help with the blizzard a little.

You'd have some difficulty setting up your tent with the freezing air and snow making your body shiver. Arcanine noticed just how cold you were though and rubbed their massive body against you while you set up the tent, sharing their body heat. While the shivering stopped for the most part, it then became difficult to get it set up from the massive pokemon bumping up against you constantly.

Once you did have the tent set up however, arcanine quickly started nudging you for food. While their food was ice cold, it wouldn't really bother them since they were able to set it ablaze within their mouth and cook it within seconds. You on the other hand had to warm yours up slowly after you got a fire started with the help of arcanine. Unfortunately they helped just a tad too much as your food got slightly burnt from how large the initial flame was.

After getting your food down rather quickly, you put out the fire and went inside the tent. Arcanine follows in right after you before zipping it shut. It was rather cramped inside the tent with the arcanine out of their pokeball but you didn't have a choice given the circumstances. You stripped down to let your clothes dry off over the night. Plus you kind of had to in order to share body heat with the arcanine more easily to avoid freezing to death.

The large fire pokemon felt nice though between their soft fur and the large amount of heat coming from them. You almost had to wonder if it was going to end up being too hot inside of the tent by the time morning came. At least your clothes should be completely dry if that was the case.

It would take you a while however to fall asleep between the arcanine's shifting around as they got comfy. Also didn't help that they'd sit up briefly every now and then to listen closely to whatever sound was being made outside. Once they did lay back down, it'd be a coin flip whether they'd lay back down next to you or if you'd end up pinned underneath them. Once you did pass out you were out for good at least until you woke up feeling a little cold from arcanine getting up.

Part of you didn't want to get up yet, feeling like it was a bit earlier to be up and moving about. You knew you had to get a move on though to find the checkpoint especially if you actually were lost. If only you had reached the checkpoint last night, you might have been able to sleep in a couple more hours. Maybe even take a day off from the hike for some proper rest, if they'd let you at least.

After a long yawn and a stretch, you'd turn your head to see what your arcanine was even up to. You'd quickly spot the arcanine with their head sniffing around your clothes, probably trying to find some poketreats."Arcanine stop that. I'll get you some in a minute, I promise," you say to the pokemon. Not that they listened to you and in the end you were forced to pull their head away from it.

Unfortunately as you did, you saw another one of your pokemon's ball in their mouth. "Spit it out," you commanded the arcanine. However when you went to grab the ball they swallowed it down in one gulp. Despite your efforts to try and get arcanine to spit up the ball, nothing you tried worked.

It was then you thought about reaching in for it, if nothing else maybe that would get the large pokemon to cough it up. The arcanine resisted as you pried their jaws open and gave a confused whine when they felt your hand push down into their throat. You could barely see a bulge of your hand in the large pokemon's throat as you pushed down inside of it.

The deeper you pushed your hand, the more you felt a tug on your arm as the arcanine's gullet tried to swallow your arm on reflex. This worried you a little but sure your arcanine wouldn't be able to eat you. You'd quickly be shoulder deep and it was then you realized just how deep the stomach was with your hand still in the esophagus. Having failed to reach deep enough, you'd start to pull your arm free of your pokemon's throat.

Once you were about to pull your elbow out of their throat however you heard a hungry growl from the arcanine's stomach followed by a swallow. "Arcanine, no!" Your words fell on deaf ears however as they swallowed once more, pulling your bicep back into their gullet. Bringing your other hand up to the large pokemon's jaws, you'd push at it while attempting to pull your arm free.

While you weren't able to pull your arm free, it seemed the arcanine wasn't able to pull you any deeper either so you were in a stalemate for now. The arcanine was actively licking at your arm now and you could even feel a happy rumble coming from their body. You were definitely in danger now if arcanine was enjoying your flavor since you knew they didn't like to give up their food.

Their tongue then came out the side and pulled your other hand into their jaws then immediately swallowed it alongside the other. You'd beg arcanine to stop but again they refused to listen to your words. Instead they would open their muzzle more as they took their next swallow and pull your head inside.

You could see their teeth on either side of your head while that thick, squishy tongue slurped over your face, soaking you with saliva. They were salivating heavily at the thought of eating you, feeling the slimy liquid go down over your body. No matter how much you wiggled and tried to pull free, you were no match for the large pokemon.

With the next swallow, you'd watch their throat open up as they did and pull your head and shoulders down inside of their fiery hot gullet. You could feel their head descending down over your body while they took their next swallow, pulling your chest and part of your belly inside with ease. Their teeth nibble at your belly and back as you hoped they wouldn't bite down on you.

At this point you could only really flail your legs and tail as their esophagus was too tight for you to move your upper body at all. Your hands started to push through into their stomach, letting them move once more but it wasn't a huge improvement considering where they were. Then the next swallow came as their tongue curled up between your legs and pulled your hips into their jaws.

You did your best to squirm, thinking maybe if you moved around too much they'd be forced to cough you up. Though if anything it only seemed to make you sink inside even faster and encourage them to swallow. Now with your hips in their jaws, they'd lift their head and you could no longer feel the floor of the tent. Instead your legs were actively pushing against the roof and helping send you deeper.

Part of you was ashamed to admit that you thought for a brief moment that the heat was an improvement over the icy cold wind you had to deal with the past few days. Not only that but their insides felt rather snug in the way their body embraced you. This was a bad train of thought though seeing as you were being eaten alive and shouldn't be accepting the fact you're being turned into pokefood right now.

The arcanine was practically wolfing you down now as they had a rather easy time swallowing your legs once they got your hips down. Your head spilled out into their stomach and you were soon able to start pushing against their stomach walls in a last ditch attempt to stop them from swallowing. While it was worth a try, you'd quickly discover that you were no match for the arcanine's powerful body as the very next gulp they took forced more of you into that stomach.

You'd have no choice but to start curling up inside as a few inches of your body would enter the stomach every few seconds. Their stomach fluids were hot just like the rest of your body. Making you feel like you were slipping down into a hot tub albeit a deadly one. Once most of your upper body was inside the stomach, it would start to feel almost as tight as their esophagus.

Before long your hands would find the pokeball the arcanine had swallowed and you pondered what to do with it. You didn't want to release them into the stomach in case the ball was somehow able to survive the arcanine's insides but part of you wondered if releasing them would make swallowing you too much for the arcanine. Before you could come to a decision however you felt the arcanine's tongue wrap over your paws and tip of your tail as they took their last swallow.

The rest of your body quickly joined you in the stomach, curled up in a very tight ball. Your pokemon's ball was still in hand as you weren't sure what to do. If you realised them now you might just get crushed in this tight space especially if it is one of the bigger ones. You could feel the belly sway side to side as arcanine walked around, they probably ruined your tent to escape not that it mattered now.

Everything then shifted drastically as arcanine rolled onto their back. This only made you wiggle a bit more desperately as you slowly got your head back above the stomach fluids. It was hard to move with how tight it was and by the time you got your head back above the fluids and once more into the stale air, you were exhausted. The trip down into your pokemon was rather taxing on you physically.

They'd start to knead over your form in their stomach as you felt those large paws press down over you. There wasn't anything you could even do at this point and started to doubt arcanine would cough you up with how unbothered they were by your movements. You could hear the gurgling groans of their stomach all around you and even the beating of their heart in the distance.

That part of you from earlier started to come back the more your helplessness set in. Maybe you'd continue on as part of your pokemon at the very least. Forever a part of them as they continue their own journey out in the world. Surrounded by the warmth of their flesh forever as you become one with it. It was certainly a nicer thought than just being food and nothing else at the very least.

You kept the pokeball hugged close against your chest while the fluids got higher over time with what little air was inside slowly vanishing. Doing your best to keep your head above it for as long as you could until you were completely submerged in the arcanine's stomach fluids. Your whole body went still soon after as you passed out, completely submitting to the arcanine's stomach while it worked on digesting your body.

Outside the arcanine had fallen asleep once more, rather happy with their catch. They'd never have to worry about being separated from you ever again as you'd be a part of their belly and with them at all times now. The arcanine might even have to eat the rest of your team in time to experience this feeling of fullness again as well as to keep them close too. That thought only solidified in their mind when they woke up and felt the pokeball you were holding release its occupant into their stomach, ready to accept another meal.
