Meet Josh. He's just your average kid, from New Bark Town, going to Professer Elm's house for his first Pokémon. Among entering the lab, he was greeted by none other than Gary, his soon-to-be-rival. Gary was also getting a Pokémon. "Huh! Josh! I already know what Pokémon you're getting. I'm picking Chikorita, and I can bet you're picking Totodile! Am I right?" Josh nodded. "Yeah! How'd you know?" Gary looked odd. "You have been looking at Totodile for days. I know you want it!"

Gary was right. Professer Elm walked in the room. "Josh! You're finally here! Now we can pick the Pokémon you guys want!" Me and Gary were both talking about the same thing. "We already know what we want! I want Chikorita, and Joshie here wants Totodile!" Professer Elm let us to our Pokémon. First, he sent out Gary's Chikorita. It seemed to like Gary. "Chiko-rita!" Gary hugged it, and began his journey.

After five minutes, Professer Elm let Josh see his new Totodile. It seemed to really like him. "Toto! Dile!"

(NOTE: From now on, I will write this story in first-person)

I left Professer Elm's lab, thanking him for my new Totodile. Before I set out for my journey, I went home. "Mom! Guess what? I got my first Pokémon! It's.....Totodile!" I let my Totodile out so my mom could see it. "Toto! Dile!" Mom looked so happy. "That is just the cutest thing I've ever seen!" After that, I set out for my journey. Just me, and my Totodile.
