This.... Well, ill try to begin by saying a few postives. First off, the story was easy to read, and the grammar was done well. However... ... I can't really think of any other postives.

Its a creepypasta based on Missingno, and uses as many cliches as possible. Game crashes, save data corrupted, restarting game, game breaks 4th wall, demonic voices, and of course, the Nightmare. This feels like a collection of "haunted game" cliches, except even worse as it had some massive plotholes. The first paragraph just cut off. I didnt even realize what happened at first. Would it be so hard to add "and then the game froze?". Plus, the titles of the sections are comedic. "pokegod of Cinnabar". Really?

The Nightmare itself was the best part for being the most hilariously done cliche nightmare part I have ever seen. "IM IN THE GAME!" "TEXT APPEARS SAYING A WILD MISSINGNO! APPEARS" the guy even has that infamous "TRIPS OVER NOTHING WHILE RUNNING" trick they use in slasher movies to stop the victim from getting away. This feels more like a satire than an actual serious creepypasta. Missingno's comment about being the "4th legendary bird" and "made a storm that killed hundreds of people" and that turning it/him into a "Jumble of pixels" was just plain funny.

The ending. Also so cliche. Destroys game, yet the game's "spirit" still haunts him. Seriously, i give this story a 8/10 for comedic value and as a statire of other generic cliche filled creepypastas. Sadly, I doubt this is actually ment to be a satire, so my real rating is a 3/10. Theres not really anything worthwhile to redeem this creepypasta... except for the easy to read part. And the lack of Hyper realistic blood.
