The Psychic Pokémon Master


It was a normal day for the calm Saffron City. Everyone was minding their own business. One particular young girl named Sabrina was making her way back to the Saffron City gym. What she didn't know was that her life was going to change completely.

She was only 10 but was given permission to be a substitute for the gym in case the leader couldn't be present. In her opinion, the blunette wasn't really fond of battling Pokémon. What she did enjoy though was playing with the many psychic Pokémon there and had been given a task to get some supplies for the said Pokémon.

Sabrina had just finished buying the necessary items required and decided it was time to head back to the gym until she noticed it was getting dark. Thinking hastily, she decided to take a shortcut through an alleyway. While walking, she could hear faint breathing and decided to turn around and see what was there and questioned the darkness.

"Excuse me, is someone there?" Sabrina only heard the breathing getting louder and began to panic. She was about to run out in fear when a large man grabbed her and tossed her to the wall. She tried using her psychic powers to make the man stay still enough to run away, but found herself not being able to use them.

Wondering why her psychic powers weren't working, Sabrina looked down and noticed she had been injected with some kind of strange needle that drained her of psychic powers. Quickly, she pulled it out.

She still couldn't use her psychic powers and figured it out that it would take some time to get the powers back. For now, she had no way of defending herself. Sabrina tried swinging at him but he moved much too fast for her to hit him. Suddenly, she was pushed against the wall and the man started pulling her shirt up.

"Don't worry this will be quick," But before he could do anything he heard someone yell.

"Let her go!"

All of a sudden, the giant man was on the ground and couldn't move. He was wondering why when he noticed that Sabrina had gained some her psychic energy back thanks to the mysterious boy distracting him long enough. But she couldn't hold it long since she was still weak. The large man took this as an opportunity to escape and took out a gas bomb. Almost immediately throwing it on the ground, he ran away. Thanks to the knockout gas and being tired Sabrina could feel herself slipping out if consciousness. The boy called out to her.

"Hey, are you okay?" That's all she heard before falling to the ground and blacked out.


After a while of sleeping, Sabrina slowly opened her eyes and adjusted them. She soon noticed she was somewhere different

'Was that all a dream?' Thought Sabrina with a questioning tone. She was pulled from her thoughts when the door opened revealing a boy.

"Oh, I see your awake! Hi, my name is Ash Ketchum of Pallet Town. I didn't catch your name," Stated Ash while walking up to Sabrina and sitting on the bed smiling at her in a way that made her blush slightly.

"Oh, me! My name is Sabrina and I hail Saffron city. I actually help run the Saffron City gym," said Sabrina still slightly blushing.

"Whoa! That's so cool! So, do you play with Pokémon a lot?" Asked Ash putting his face closer to hers with eyes sparkling in excitement. The action was making Sabrina blush again.

"Actually, yes I do. You see, the Saffron gym specializes in psychic Pokémon, so I mostly spend my time with the Pokémon there," Replied Sabrina, a little bit surprised the boy didn't know much about the saffron city gym.

"Wow, you're so lucky! I only get to play in Professor Oak's laboratory with the different Pokémon there, but rarely any trainers get to capture psychic types so I rarely see them. The same thing applies to Professor Oak. Some psychic Pokémon are still a mystery to him and he wants the Pokémon in order to be able to conduct his research. That's when I decided I'd become a psychic Pokémon master when I start my journey as a Pokémon trainer. But that's not 'till I'm ten..." Spoke Ash, a little depressed when he remembered. "You see, I'm only nine and to get your Pokémon trainer license you have to be ten. I have to wait till tomorrow for my birthday and I'll be able to get my starter Pokémon to begin my journey as a psychic type Pokémon master!" Ash spoke with a confident feeling while pointing to the sky.

'Wow. For a little kid he sure talks a lot,' Sabrina thought while sweat-dropping

"Have you started you Pokémon journey?" Ash looked at Sabrina curiously.

"I'm the right age to start but I haven't put much thought into it. I always thought I'd stay in Saffron for the rest of my life."

"Well it isn't really a hard question. Hey, I got it! Why don't you come with me on the start of my Pokémon journey to be the best psychic type Pokémon trainer? I could use your help since you have been around psychic types so much. What do you say? Want to come with me on my journey to be the best?" Asked Ash while reaching his hand to Sabrina for her to shake.

'He's asking me to join him even though I don't know him. However, I see he has a lot of potential. I might just give it a try,' Thought Sabrina before shaking his hand and speaking.

"It's a deal then. We will both go on our new journey." Sabrina smiled at Ash, causing him to blush slightly

"Great! Well, let's pack up and start our journey tomorrow!" He exclaimed having a huge grin on his face.

"Ash, breakfast is ready!" called out another voice.

"Coming!" Ash yelled back.

"Oh, Ash, before you go, could I ask where exactly are we?"

"Oh, we're in my house!" Exclaimed Ash before he ran off to eat his breakfast.

'He's really energetic for someone who is 9 years old... But who really cares?' Sabrina thought before going to follow Ash since she had one more question to ask. All of a sudden, a woman came through the door.

"Oh, I see your awake and completely healed," The woman thought for a second. "I almost forgot would you like to have breakfast with us?"

"Really? I'd love too!" Exclaimed Sabrina happily.

"I forgot I didn't properly introduce myself yet. My name is Delia Ketchum. Nice to meet you Sabrina."

"It's a pleasure to meet you as well Ms. Ketchum"

"Please, you don't have to be so formal. Just call me 'Mom,'" At that remark Sabrina blushed slightly, remembering the woman was Ash's mother. The only reason she would call her 'mom' was if she was married to Ash. These thoughts made her whole face go red in embarrassment, letting her imagination run wild.

She was quickly pulled from her thoughts when Delia said "Or you can just call me by my first name... I'm just used to Ash calling me 'mom'. I almost forget what my name is" she chuckled softly, causing Sabrina chuckle as well. "Well, we better get going. I bet you're really hungry. Let's go eat!" Delia said before stepping out of the room.

'Wow, Ash's mom is really nice! I still remember what I thought when she said to call her 'Mom',' Sabrina thought before blushing slightly again. 'I can't keep thinking like this! I can't let them wait! Might as well go downstairs to eat,' She thought to herself before heading out of the room and into the kitchen.


Well everybody, how did you like my first chapter of my first fanfic? I hope you enjoyed. Both Ash and Sabrina will be 10 and that's when they will start their journey. Who will be Ash's first Pokémon find out in the next chapter.

(Swirly (beta): Oh! You guys should ask questions! That'd be fun to answer!)
