AN: Hi Everyone! This is my first story up since I have decide to actually write and not just read. I have completed this series...mostly except a few episodes here and there. You can go to my profile to see the run down on how I write Pokémon with OC main. I hope you'll enjoy it!
BTW I sadly own nothing of Pokémon except some of the characters which you should be able to tell who is mine.
Episode 1: Born to be a Champion!
The sun shone bright on a beautiful Monday morning in a little town called New Bark Town in the Johto Region as a young professor busied herself around her lab. Today was a big day as three new trainers were coming to receive their starter Pokémon. Everything was different than how starters and trainers got Pokémon. Now, trainers started when they were 14 and were handed picked to be trainers. Eventually people became trainers, just not all at once. In theory some people got starters and started on a journey this month and next month three more would go. Now, if only the remaining two would show up.
"I hope those two get here soon or I'll be forced to give out the starters to two different possible trainers. I really wanted those two," Professor Krystopher said to herself. That was how it worked. If they didn't show up they would lose the chance and have to wait.
Meanwhile across town…
A slight snore could be heard under the covers as the 14 year old girl slept unknown she was being watched. She sat there waiting for her moment to open her mouth with what seemed harmless attack to wake her trainer's daughter up like she did every morning. Looking over at the clock it read eight, well, now was the time as the green and yellow Pokémon smiled.
"Sunfloraaaaa!" the Sun Pokémon cried out with an Uproar attack.
"Ah!" Chasen Emerson cried as she was woken up. "Why?! I'm trying to sleep..."
Sunflora only smiled before going to the door to meet her trainer and Chasen's mother Valerie.
"Chasen get up!" she called to her still sleepy daughter who had fallen back onto her bed.
"Why?" Chasen whined.
"I'm assuming you want your starter Pokémon right?" Valerie asked her soon to be Pokémon trainer.
"Huh?" That seemed to get her daughter's attention as a mop of brown hair and brown eyes looked at her.
"To begin your journey?" Valerie hinted. Her daughter was intelligent in both knowledge and Pokémon, but in the morning she was slow.
"That is today!" Chasen said bolting out of bed and put on dark blue jeans, a high neck black long sleeve shirt, blue/black/grey high tops with black socks, and a light navy blue zip up athletic jacket. She then thru her medium to long brown hair into a ponytail and then a black headband with her bangs hanging in front of it.
"Yes and Sunflora was trying to get you up." Valerie spoke defending her Pokémon.
"Thanks Sunflora! Good?" Chasen said to the Pokémon that had been with since she was a baby. Sometimes Sunflora treated her as one like last night putting her to sleep with Grass Whistle when she was too restless.
"Sunflora!" the Pokémon cried grabbing some items off the desk.
"Forgetting something?" Valerie asked.
"Huh?" Chasen asked.
"How do I look to you?" Valerie asked. As she thought before…slow.
"Like you do every morning...except blurry," Chasen answered. Valerie nodded her head toward Sunflora who was showing her black rectangular glasses, a charm, and grey gloves. "Oh yeah!" She slipped on the glasses, charm, and gloves. "Now I can see! I'm good to go!"
"Perfect." Her mother agreed.
"Thanks. Can't forget my sunglasses. Bye Sunflora! Bye mom, I'll see ya later! Love you!" Chasen said as she grabbed her bag as she left it by the door after she packed it the night before. She then raced down the road to one of her best friend's house.
Chasen couldn't believe that this was going to the last time in a while she was going to be in her home town of New Bark Town. Typically a journey took about a year to complete and there was also the idea of going to other places afterward. That was for another time though. She runs up to the door and shouts.
"Will you hurry up?!" A noise is heard and the door opens revealing Alyssa Cantu, Chasen's second best friend.
"I'm trying. I need to make sure that I have everything I need," said the blonde haired girl that comes out in reddish pink top with a half way jacket and light blue jeans. On her feet are pink boots to match the outfit. A reason why Chasen and Alyssa clash was style and the opinion on the color pink.
"Can't you do that later? If I don't get my starter Pokémon because you took too long I'll make you my partner." Chasen threatened with a glare. She wanted her starter as this was the moment she looked forward to her entire life.
"That's mean…and you wouldn't?" Alyssa asked. She knew Chasen liked to joke.
"Try me…" Chasen whispered in a low tone to say she wasn't kidding.
"Alright let's go." Alyssa said before they raced off to the lab.
"Oh thank you, you two finally made it." Professor Krystopher said as she saw the two running up the road to her lab that was located the edge of town.
"We would have been here on time if not for…" Chasen started her excuse.
"Sorry, but at least we're here." Alyssa said making sure Chasen didn't go any further with her comment.
"Well I have two left. Aiden picked his up early this morning. Remember the boy who would come here from Cherrygrove and play with guys. I recall he had rivalry with you Chasen." The professor said revealing who the third trainer was getting a starter.
"Chasen…" Alyssa teased Chasen. It was no secret the two often tried to show each other up that came off as flirting.
"Shut up…" Chasen repeated the motion Alyssa made minutes ago to quiet her.
"Well, why don't we get started? Here are your Poké Balls and a Pokédex. I assume you all remember what they are for from when you were all the time learning. Now to my favorite part of starting a journey, the starters. Here they are. First, we have the grass type Chikorita and last, the fire type Cyndaquil." The professor said to rap everything up quickly. All kids in New Bark Town know the professor and go to her classes about being trainers.
"They're all so cute." Chasen said looking at the two.
"I don't know who to choose." Alyssa admitted.
"Did Aiden say why he picked Totodile?" Chasen asked noticing the water type starter was missing from the trio.
"He said Chikorita was too girly for him and since Cyndaquil is at a disadvantage to Totodile," Professor Krystopher explained what Aiden had told her.
"Sounds like him." Chasen added.
"Also this Cyndaquil is a little different…" the young professor continued knowing she'd have to tell them eventually as one of these two young girls was about to become Cyndaquil's trainer.
"Different?" The duo asked.
The professor took a breath before explaining, "At the moment it can't use fire type attacks and only blows smoke. I can't figure out what happened so I was hoping a trainer would take him and figure out what's wrong and help. Right now, no one wants the poor little guy."
"I know who I want!" Alyssa said as she wasn't really paying attention to what the professor just explained about the fire starter.
"Who?" Chasen asked hoping she wouldn't pick the one she wanted.
"Well I want to the best coordinator so the perfect choice for contests is Chikorita!" Alyssa exclaimed picking up the grass starter and cuddling her.
Chasen looked at the Cyndaquil as his heart broke and Chikorita is delighted by her choice as she cuddled back. Cyndaquil was afraid now the other new trainer will not want him.
"So Chasen, do you want Cyndaquil?" Professor Krystopher asked hoping she would say yes. He needed a trainer to get over his problem and Chasen always seemed like the person to give anyone a shot. Cyndaquil assumed by the silence that the answer was a no so he turns around and begins to walk back toward the desk where his Pokéball sits.
"Well…Of course I do! Cyndaquil was the Pokémon I wanted in the first place and I don't care if he is different, it just makes him unique, and that's what I want in my Pokémon." Chasen said before Cyndaquil got too far away.
"That's what I want to hear." The professor said.
"Quil?" Cyndaquil asked. (Really?)
"I'm not joking, so, you want to join my team Cyndaquil?" Chasen asked. She wanted the Pokémon, but she wasn't sure if he wanted her.
"Cynda!" Cyndaquil cheered.
"That's great!" Alyssa said happy for her friend. She also knew Chasen had Cyndaquil from the start and actually her least favorite of the trio was Chikorita.
"You two are lucky you got her on time or I would have had to pick other students." P. Krystopher explained. Alyssa gave a questioning look, but Chasen knew why. "Those are the people I know have potential and will take care of them. I pick three people every couple months and give them a choice to complete their dreams. Also this puts many more trainers out there to help with my research.'
"Thanks!" Alyssa said. Chasen stayed quiet still kind of upset about the Professor's choices of people. It wasn't that she didn't like Aiden, it was, she was hoping for someone else. With everything taken care of the girls left the lab to head home to check in before leaving. As always one has to be stopped.
"Hey Chasen! I just heard you got your starter. I bet I could beat you in a battle!" A girl named Hannah that Chasen knew from her school days called out. She always thought she was better than everyone else especially since her family worked for another a battle company that had supplied their 14 year girl with her own starter not through a professor.
"I seriously doubt that." Chasen said under her breath. They practically irked each other.
"Go Teddiursa!" Hannah said calling out her what Chasen deemed a teddy bear.
"You asked for it, Cyndaquil come on out!" Chasen called.
"Ha! You picked that little whip. I heard about it from a friend of mine, it's weak and can't use fire type moves." Hannah said mocking the fire mouse.
Cyndaquil had low confidence from the start and this fact and her words made it worse. He is afraid Chasen would return him. He wanted someone to believe in him after getting knocked down.
"I don't care! I just met him and already care for him because he's my partner! That's why I've decided to permanently make him my own by calling him Blitz!" Chasen defended as well as marking Cyndaquil as hers by giving him a nickname.
"That's so cute! I have to think of one for Chikorita!" Alyssa said liking the idea of nicknaming the Pokémon.
"Is the name okay with you Cyndaquil? It means that you're unique and one day you'll find your fire and I bet it will happen like your name. I hope that's okay?" Chasen asked not wanting Cyndaquil to be stuck with something he didn't like.
"Cyndaquil Cynda? Cyndaquil Cyndaquil! Cynda Quil!" Cyndaquil…Blitz said. (I have a name and a trainer? Oh thank you and I love the name! From now on I am Blitz!)
"I'm glad and now let's shut her up. Alright I'm ready!" Chasen declared after helping her partner…it felt awesome to say that.
"Teddiursa Scratch!" Hannah commanded. With small sharp glowing claws the little bear charged the fire mouse.
"Dodge it and Tackle!" Chasen countered as Cyndaquil moved out of the way of the attack before slamming into his foe.
"No! Use Mud-Slap and then Scratch!" Hannah said. Teddiursa responded by slapping mud at Cyndaquil that hit him in the face before he was knocked down by the scratch attack.
"Blitz!" Chasen called to her Pokémon as he attempted to rise.
"Finish this with Scratch!" Hannah said hoping this would be the end and she could finally rub the victory in Chasen's face.
"Blitz use Smokescreen!" Chasen said as a last tactic hoping to get the upper hand. A thick black smoke emerges from Blitz's mouth and Teddiursa is no longer able to see what is going on. "I figured I'd even up the playing field. Blitz use Tackle!" Blitz having cleared his eyes of mud. He sees Teddiursa and tackles him. Teddiursa is pushed out of the smoky field and has fainted.
"No Teddiursa! I will defeat you and your Cyndaquil." Hannah said returning her Pokémon and running off before Chasen or anyone else could say anything.
"Good luck with that." Chasen said having the need for the last word.
"That was awesome! You two make a great team." Alyssa commented having watched the battle.
"Thanks."
"What made you name Cyndaquil? You usually don't talk about that stuff." Alyssa asked knowing her friend when talking about Pokémon.
"I wanted Blitz feel special and that he was supposed to be with me and that he needed something special after what Hannah said. I love the little guy," Chasen explained as Blitz gets on Chasen's shoulder and nuzzles her face.
"Cynda, Cyndaquil." Blitz said to her. (Thanks, I like you too.)
"So, are you going naming Chikorita?" Chasen asked remembering that Alyssa mentioned wanting to nickname her starter.
"Yeah, I named her Solar," Alyssa replied happy that the name was agreed by both trainer and Pokémon.
"I like it." Chasen agreed before hearing her name being called.
"Chasen! Alyssa!" It was Domino Mitchell, Chasen's best friend. Domino was the same age and was the opposite of Alyssa. She has short black hair, glasses, and was taller than them both. She wore green cargo capris, an orange/red striped long sleeve shirt, with a brown open vest over it. Chasen and Alyssa had been friends since they were little, but when Domino arrived in town Chasen and her clicked. It was hard to admit that the two had a stronger friendship that the brunette and blonde. Chasen swore Alyssa and Domino only stayed friends because of her as she was middle ground.
"What's wrong Domino?" Chasen asked seeing her friend out of breath and in a hurry. In truth, Chasen felt a pinch in her chest every time she saw Domino. The reason was Domino wanted to start on a journey to escape New Bark Town and find a path, but she wasn't chosen. Professor Krystopher could only pick three, but she told her there was next time and not to worry.
After catching her breath Domino almost yelled what was wrong, "There is a Pidgey attacking a bunch of kids down by the lake!"
"Let's go!" Chasen commanded without a second thought and without even one second going by since the statement.
With horror in their eyes the girls nodded and began to run toward the lake. Those kids needed help and it was dangerous to mess with Pokémon when you're not a trainer.
