#001 - Bulbasaur
Pokeshots is a collection of one-shots, short stories, drabbles, and other such assorted words for short fanfics. Each chapter will focus on one species of Pokemon, and they will be going by the national Pokedex. For the purpose of this project, Pokemon that can change their form at will or with items will be counted as the same Pokemon. So, Pokemon like Castform, Rotom, Oricorio, and Giratina will not have separate chapters. However, Alolan Forms will be given their own chapter, since they're so different that they might as well be a different species. Each little story will be paired with the in game text that inspired the piece. I may or may not do some special episodes for unique Pokemon - Spiky Eared Pichu, the purple Kecleon, the red Gyrados, the gold Magikarp, and other assorted unique/false shiny Pokemon.

ORAS Flavor Text: Bulbasaur can be seen napping in bright sunlight. There is a seed on its back. By soaking up the sun's rays, the seed grows progressively larger.
Bulbasaur sighed as he flopped down on the soft, pillowy grass, flowers tickling his nose every time he inhaled. It was late afternoon, with nary a cloud in the bright blue sky. High above him, the burning hot sun carefully bathed the world below with warmth. It was, without a doubt, the perfect day for sunbathing.
"Bulba." It went without saying that Bulbasaur was quite content. How could it not feel like it didn't have a care in the world? Yes, it was a day like today that Bulbasaur absolutely lived for. He was rather fortunate that the area where the Professor's lab was situated in had almost nonexistent winters and mild summers. It was the perfect for the Grass and Poison type.
As he lounged there, his mind drifted to thoughts of the future. According to the old man that was taking care of him for the time being, a young child was coming in next week to get a starter Pokemon. Much as he was loathe to give up his favored sunbathing spot, Bulbasaur couldn't deny that he felt a certain itch to get up and see the world beyond the lab. Just think of all those lovely sunbathing spots he could be missing out on.
"Char?"
"Bulba, bulba bulbasaur bulba!" Bulbasaur grumpily cracked open one red eye to glare at the orange lizard like creature that was staring at him curiously. Charmander cocked his head to the side before deciding that it was probably best to go bug someone else. Bulbasaur glared at the Pokemon until he deemed that it was far enough away, before closing his eye again and settling back down onto the soft grass, smiling as the sun's rays gently danced over his still body. With nothing else to do, he quickly dozed off, left to quietly dream about lazy days under the sun.
Finished! Please leave me a review! I know these will probably be kind of short, but it challenges me to make a good story without the luxury of a lot of words.
