READ THIS NOW!

Hey guys!

So while I was gone for a long time, I actually decided to write a new story!

Now I think that this story will be much easier to write and read and much more interesting because I will have a narrator, (rather than Ash telling the story in Jubilife High) which means I can have multiple scenes going on at once, and the story does not revolve around only 1 character.

Okay, so this story is about the Pokemon Manga, which in my opinion by far beats out any other aspect of Pokemon (the anime, for example)

If you've already read it, good on you, because the characters look and act the same, the only difference is their ages.

If you haven't, don't worry, I've thought of the 99% of you.

The following will be a list of each character, followed by their age in THIS story, who they're based off of in the anime and the game, and link to a picture of them if you'd like to see what they look like. (just remember to take the spaces away from the dots)

WHEW! Well it seems like a lot of characters to remember but you'll see how they all come into play naturally, so no worries!

Oh, and I put it as a Red/Yellow story, but there will be much more, don't worry!

These first two chapters will be short as they serve as introductory chapters.

And now, without further ado, please enjoy,

POKEMON UNIVERSITY!

Chapter 1

There were only three. Only three pokemon were downstairs in the kitchen. Where was the fourth? And what was it doing?

A young boy lay in his bed on this beautiful summer day in the Kanto countryside. Piercing eyes, jet-black hair, a strong physique. This boy's name was Red. Red was on his summer vacation, fresh out of high school. He was looking to pursue a career as a pokemon trainer. So far, he's had absolutely no luck.

A pikachu entered the room with a letter in its mouth. It quickly climbed on top of Red, still fast asleep. The pikachu tapped Red on the shoulder. Nothing. The pikachu frowned.

"Piiiiiiiii-"

Still fast asleep.

"Kaaaaaaaa-"

Red's eyes suddenly shot open.

"Chuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"

What seemed like a million volts shot through Red's body in an instant. So uncomfortable, so painful, so... Tickly?

"Gaaaahhhhhhhhh! Oh, good morning Pika. You know, you could've just yelled instead."

Pika shook his head and smiled. He much preferred his way.

"Hey, whatcha got there? Is that...? No way!"


Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! Somewhere far away, in the Johto region, an alarm set off. A much simpler awakening for another young boy straight out of high school, who went by the name of Gold. Pokemon battles were his strong point, too. Why would Gold set an alarm in the summertime, you may ask? The morning was the perfect time for a stroll around New Bark Town to find a "damsel in distress", so he claimed. Gold was always up even before his own pokemon.

After eating hardly anything and combing his hair just to mess it up and wear a hat, he finally stepped out the front door. He quickly checked his mailbox, then dashed toward the...

Wait, something in the mailbox was addressed to him? What a rare occurrence! The damsels could wait, for now.

Gold slowly opened the letter, so as to not rip the part where his name was written.

"Oh. My. Gosh!"


"Dad! Be quiet!"

Our third young boy was rudely awoken by his father's training. Ruby, as we shall call him, was a gym leader's son, and had recently moved from Johto to Hoenn when he completed high school at the beginning of the summer.

"Ah, forget it!" Ruby decided to get up, put on his hat, which he always wore, and go visit his pokemon, who were in the yard. Ruby had a different outlook on pokemon. He preferred to dress them up, smarten them and make them perfect for contests rather than battles. He wanted to be a coordinator.

Ruby opened his door, only to step on a beautiful letter that said his name on it. He quickly opened it and read it. "Oh you've gotta be kidding me!"


"Ms Berlitz, it appears to be time to take on the day."

A beautiful young girl with long black hair lifted her head out of bed and greeted the day. This girl went by the name of Platina. As the daughter of a famous researcher in the Sinnoh region, Platina was filthy rich. However, it did not show one bit in her personality. Platina's goal, similar to our other young boys, was to challenge and defeat all gym leaders.

"Thank you." She excused her butler. But he would not leave.

"There appears to be some mail for you, miss. Shall I read it for you?"

"No, thank you, Gramps. I'll read it myself."

She took the letter and her butler scurried off. She opened it very carefully. Upon reading it, she gasped.


"Woooooooo!"

His energetic vibe was never to be trifled with. Black, another young boy, was the most hyperactive, energetic person you'd ever meet. But he had his goals, like our other young heroes. He wanted to become the champion of his region's, Unova, Pokemon League.

He was running around his hometown of Nuvema for no apparent reason other than to burn off some energy. As he turned the final corner to his house, he saw the mailman.

"Hey, my man. How's it going? Good? It's going good here."

"Yeah, well, Black, today's your lucky day, because there's actually mail for you for once!"

"WHAT? REALLY? You're lying. Show me. Now now now!"

Black viciously opened his letter and read it.

"A message from the Pokemon Board of Education. Congratulations Black of Nuvema Town!
