Author's Note: Alright! My first Pokemon story~! It's NxTouko(White). It's set after the ending of the game, and yes, this is more based off the Game because I haven't really read the Manga. I'd love feedback so please read and review!
I'll try to update once every couple of days, as long as the feedback is decent. Because really, I've developed this story so far in my head and I am absolutely beyond excited for it!
Touko stood on the deck of the boat, breathing in deep. The salty tinge of the air from the ocean tickled her nose, her long brown hair blowing back from her face. Her trademark hat was off, sitting in her room on the ship.
She had been on this boat for a good few days, on her way to a new place. The Johto region. It was the first time she'd left Unova, though she had embarked on her Pokemon journey over seven years ago. Excitement flared anew as her blue eyes caught sight of land, so near.
Touko had taken a bit of a break from Pokemon, after she beat the Elite Four. Well, sort-of beat them, really. N, of Team Plasma, had challenged her from the very beginning of her journey. She had believed him to be a tentative friend until he was revealed the be the King of Team Plasma. He had pushed her, and the Unova Gym Leaders had helped her. She obtained Reshiram, a powerful Legendary, and was forced to battle. Touko, then about 11, had won. N had fled the scene afterwards, and that was all anyone had heard since, aside from someone hearing he was spotted "in a far off land."
From there, she continued to train, checking out the rest of Unova, exploring every inch of the land that she could, catching Pokemon and meeting people, but never overstressing herself. Finally, around the time Touko was 15, she finally challenged the Elite Four once more, winning but never accepting the title of Champion. Cheren came around right after her, winning and taking Alder's place as Champion.
And then she took another break..staying at home with her mother, mostly, for the next two years. She did go off occasionally,often to visit Lacunosa or Castelia for the fun of it. Finally, right after her 17th birthday, it was as if Touko woke up needing change. She asked around, and found a ship to go to Johto- that was it. That was the way to go. She boarded as soon as she could, and now, here she was.
Her Team had changed significantly over the years, Emboar still being a central Pokemon, and one of the only two she had on her right now. The other was her Scrafty, and all of her other Pokemon were stored away safely in her PC. Except Reshiram- who she had released willingly, though she'd see glimpses of it occasionally. She had plenty of Pokeballs in her bag...she wanted to meet new Pokemon. Catch some more.
"Olivine City!" A Sailor announced as the Ship finally came to Port. A short time later, the brunette teenager was stepping slightly shakily off the boat, and into Olivine City of the Johto Region. She walked through the city at a leisurely pace, looking at everything. So incredibly different from Unova. The buildings were so different, the feel was so much more comfortable, home-like.
Touko stopped in front of the Lighthouse, the sign reading Glitter lighthouse. Her blue eyes lit up as she stared upwards at the towering building, making mental note to tour that later. For now? She headed to the Mart, to stock up on the usuals (Full Restores, Full Heals) and then stepped outside, stretching her long, pale arms backwards. The salty smell of the air was so relaxing, the Sun was warm, thought the light was dimming. She tossed Emboar's pokeball into the air, and in a flash of red light, the large Pokemon was standing in front of her.
"C'mon, let's go see if the Pokemon Center has any spare rooms." Touko said with a grin, looking out to the Horizon, where the sun was beginning to sink. Emboar grunted in approval.
She strolled down the small road, Emboar following closely. An unusual green Pokemon with a long neck that had a large pink flower around it had stopped, Trainer-less sniffing Emboar. Touko whipped out her Pokedex, opening it.
"Magenium," the voice said. "Its breath has the fantastic ability to revive dead plants and flowers."
Emboar was staring at the Meganium, who crowed it's name loudly. It looked friendly, but why was there no Trainer? A small, decorated string was around Meganium's leg, indicating it had a trainer.
"Hey, come on big guy, let's find your Trainer." Touko said softly, catching the Grass Pokemon's attention. She turned to walk into the Pokemon center, the automated door flying open- walking straight into a very familiar, pale green haired man.
The man, taller and more filled out than he was seven years ago, laughed slightly. "I knew Meganium felt happy, and only one person I have ever met has made Pokemon feel like that so quickly," He said. "Hello, Touko."
Touko backed up a few steps, blue eyes flying wide open. Emboar even turned, growling her name is recognition. "N!" She exclaimed, hand flying to her chest. "Wow. I never knew I would see you here!"
