Encounters in the Camingo Region

"Kyō! Kyō wake up!" Kyō slowly opened his eyes to see his older sister, Azami, staring at him. "Happy 13th Birthday Kyō! You know what that means right?" Kyō was rubbing his eyes and mumbled "13th...eh...oh!"

Welcome to the Camingo Region! A series of islands not too far off from the Hoenn Region. Camingo is known as the "Mixing Bowl" of the Pokemon world, as it is where the top scientists and celebrities gather for large events. There is also a wide variety of Pokemon, from all regions of the world, that roam in this region.

In the Camingo Region, Pokemon Battling is the favourite pasttime. Many of the top battlers have trained in Camingo at some point on their Journey to be the best. The Camingo League Tournament is also the largest of all and even includes a three-round Preliminary set of matches just to get into the tournament.

The official age to receive one's first Pokemon was changed to 13 years old due to the large amounts of children getting lost on their journeys. Today we join our hero, Kyō, on his 13th birthday.

"Today's the day I finally get to choose my partner!" Kyō exclaimed as he jumped out of bed. "Once you get dressed, I will meet you downstairs so we can go get your Pokemon." Azami stated. Kyō nodded and motioned her to the door. She smiled and stepped out of the room.

Kyō changed into his signature outfit; A navy blue long sleeve shirt covered by a zip up red short sleeve jacket, a red beanie, and black pants. He has fairly light skin, medium length ash brown hair. He is 5'5" tall and around 110 lbs. Kyō is somewhat of a playful boy, but knows when it is the right time to make a joke.

Kyō walked down the stairs to see Azami watching a news program on TV. "Another bank has been robbed by the evil crime syndicate 'Team Valhalla'. These crooks, once again, used odd, dark Pokemon similar to those used by Evice of Cipher in the Orre Region." The news reporter nervously reported on the program. "That's the third bank this month..." Azami mumbled.

Azami turned and saw Kyō standing there "Oh, didn't see you there. Ready to go?" Kyō nodded and the two of them walked out the door. WHAM! They turned to see their friend Cal on the ground after tripping over a rcok. "Hey Cal! You on your way to get your partner too?" Cal and Kyō were born on the same day 13 years ago, and have been best friends ever since. "Ow, that smarts...Oh hey Kyō! Yeah I'm on my way, can I go with you guys?" Cal replied. "Of course" Azami answered, "the more the merrier!"

The three of them walked through the small town, Hajime Town, to the laboratory of Professor Sumac, a total travel time of only two minutes. Once they arrived Cal paused "This is the moment..." he said, "The moment I pick my partner, the one who will be there for me whenever I need them. I already know who I am going to pick, how about you Kyō?" Kyō stopped to think. Of course I know. I decided the same day I saw that battle. "I think so. I know I could never regret this decision even one bit." With that, the three walked inside.

*I know its a little short, but the rest of the chapters are much longer. Think of it as the tab on the first line of a paragraph, the other lines are longer than the first one.*

I hope you all liked the first chapter of my first fanfiction. I will be uploading all sprites of the characters in the story to photobucket and leaving a link after each chapter like so. Please leave constructive criticism, and I look forward to posting my next chapter.
