**Yoink** was a randomized Pokémon that debuted in Patterrz's Pokémon Platinum 10 Year Anniversary Sleeplocke, which debuted during Patterrz's livestream of the same name, which streamed live on May 30th 2021.

**Yoink** was Patterrz's starter, which was chosen because the chat recommended him to pick the unrevealed starter.

## Yoink's Fate

Yoink was Patterrz's starter, which was chosen because the Discord Chat recommended him to pick the unrevealed starter inside the far left Pokéball. Out all of the starters, the Middle one was a Raikou, the right one was a Voltorb, & the far left one that Pat ended up with was...a Paras...

For obvious reasons, everyone in the YouTube chat were heavily pessimistic & called for a Run 2. Pat, however continued on with optimism. Unfortunately, because Paras had replaced Turtwig, & Raikou had replaced Chimchar, Barry (named Subnoodle TIME in this run) had Raikou.

Paras, for obvious reasons fainted in the tutorial battle with Barry due to him having a Raikou, which the Paras wasn't able to do much damage to with his low attack stat & Scratch *literally* as his only attack. Barry's Raikou was able to finish the Paras off almost instantly using Bite twice.

Later, during a grinding session, the Paras (still unnamed) fainted to a wild Pokémon (a Farfetch'd) during a grinding session, but luckily, this happened before Pat got any Pokéballs, so it didn't count as a death.

**Yoink** was then finally given his name after this because a new member named BugCatcherVince#008 cleverly claimed the Paras line shortly after the starter was picked.

Along the way, **Yoink** was able to help out with catching most of Pat's encounters, including **Gorignak**, **Crabcake**, **Sobek**, **Majestic**, **Callum**, **Baku** & **Draco**, & helped defeat a few trainers.

### Close Calls

* Pat finds out that one of the starters he could've had, the Voltorb in the far right Pokéball had Truant during the team up battle with Dawn. Truant Voltorb would've been very bad for his run. Luckily, he got a Paras instead, despite not getting the Raikou. See the clip

### Yoink's Death

Sadly, **Yoink** was killed during the battle against Roark; Roark had a Tropius on the team, which had Gust; Pat didn't know about at the time, & on the 2nd turn, it killed **Yoink** with it easily, due to **Yoink**'s 4x weakness to Flying Type attacks.

He was sent to the death box in a funeral shortly after Pat wins the 1st Badge, & **Callum** (as a Wurmple) takes his place.
