I've been having a slew of pokemon dreams recently.

Dream 1 - Store

I was in a store, some sort of Claire's or Ardene's. I never shop there, ever, but here I was in the dream, shopping. At the back of the store, there were four long shelves spanning from one wall to the other, one on top of another, filled with Pokemon plushes. Some were smaller and had black keychain things stuck to the top of them, and some were large. Really large. I picked up the biggest one (that didn't resemble any sort of actual pokemon): it was purple and a lighter red, and the price tag read $364.99. Wow, just because it was as large as me, that didn't mean I'd spend that much on a piece of fabric. I chucked it back into the shelves and looked some more. I then picked up a Turtwig plush, which was the same one I had in real life. I got the real thing in Disney World; Epcot's anime store to be exact, but this wasn't an anime store. Because of this, I was like "wow, they have this plush here too?"

I definitely wasn't lucid at this point; at least not until I picked up a shinx plush. It was about twice the size of an ipod touch and had a black plastic keychain at the top. I looked at it for a little while and then put it back, as I had now become lucid and didn't want to waste my time looking at these plushes anymore. "Sweet," I said out loud and exited the store, emerging into a rural area with homes and sidewalks. Immediately I decided, since somehow I forgot about my current dream goals, to ride a pokemon. Fly it, to be exact. I summoned a Charizard using my turn-around method, which looked the way I wanted it to, with the exception of its size; it was slightly smaller than it should have been. After all, how was I supposed to fly on its back if it couldn't even support my weight? I let it go and it bent over, allowing me to get onto it. It then began to fly, but as it got to a certain point in the sky, maybe a few feet above the houses' roofs, it began to sink back down. I imagined it flapping its wings even more in an attempt to get it to go higher, and it did for a moment, but it sank back down again.

I was sick of trying to mess with this, so I jumped off while it was still in midair and belly-flopped right on the ground. That was clumsy. I looked up (I didn't move my head, but instead just moved my eyes) to see it flying away, higher and higher. As soon as I did this, however, the dream went darker. I stopped looking up and got to my feet, feeling that looking up was a stupid thing to do. Had I just destabilized my dream?

I suppose I did, because the dream continued to turn darker and darker. Then, it ended.

Dream 2 - False Awakening

The next thing I knew, I was in my bed. Crap, I thought, it was so stupid to look up because it destabilized the dream. I was about to get up for a glass of water, but I suddenly realized something. I wasn't in the right bed, and so I realized that I was still dreaming, it was just a false awakening. "Wow, my lucidity carried over from my other dream," I said to myself as I got up. But the dream ended rather quickly.
