Disclaimer: I don't own pokemon or any other products I mention in this chapter.
Ello, I decided to actually work very hard with this story. If you want a character to be in this story I still need a friend to travel along with my character (no pokemon only other trainers. I'll give them pokemon and make what they catch just give me one or 2 pokemon to start with and what your persons like, and if you do post a description make it a little detailed. I also need a rival.) This chapter may be a little short because im basically just explaining the main character and his background. (When the writing is like this it means it's a flashback.)
Chapter 1: The start of it all
A teenager around 12 sat in his room of his new home in Viridian City. He yawned quietly as he flipped through the TV channelsHis only pokemon so far Aron sat next to him munching on a small pokemon treat. The teen eventually fell asleep the TV still on a show about professor Oak almost at its end. He seemed like a basic teen standing at 5-4, brown hair and green eyes. His room was like any other assorted posters of elite four members and the latest bands. His house was full with the scent of pasta and some meats that go into it. His name was Scrap Stryker. He has the dreams of most other pokemon trainers he wants to be the greatest and go around the world winning every league no matter how long it takes. He is also interested in the pokemon contest there like battles but more complicated. But the only strange thing about Scrap is that he still hasn't started his pokemon journey even though he should have started at 10. The problem is his mom, ever since a certain incident involving Scraps father. Ever since that incident they moved from Hoen to another far away region called Coro (a role playing place me and my friends made.) to Johto then finally Kanto. His family used to be huge assistants to professor Birch until one fateful day. It was about 4:30 Scrap just finished his HW in the lab with his friend Brendan and they were both battling. "Go Aron!" Scrap shouted throwing a great ball healthy Aron appearing and letting out a roar.
"Its skin is shiny and very tough like steel dad says that means it's very healthy." Brendan said smiling." Go Kip!" Brendan shouted throwing a pokeball a small Mudkip appearing in a flash of red light.
"I see you have been training Kip a lot too." Scrap said smiling. "Aron use iron defense and then head butt." Scrap shouted Aron turning into iron and then head butting Mudkip.
"Kip! Use um… water gun!" Brendan shouted Mudkip hesitating a bit but using water gun. The water hit Aron making it flinch a bit but it got back up.
"Alright Aron try using that move I tried to teach you before metal claw!" Scrap shouted Aron let out a roar and charged at Mudkip its front paw glowing with a silver light.
"Heh you barely even know what that move is how do you expect Aron to know that move, Kip use dig under Aron to make him fall into the hole and then use water gun to fill the hole with water.! Brendan shouted Kip dodging the failed metal claw and burying right under Aron. Aron fell though the hole, it landed on its back and let out a yelp of pain and help. Kip jumped up in the air and shot a large blast of freezing water into the hole Aron getting shot up to the top of the hole its eyes little swirls. "Good match Scrap." Brendan said extending his hand. Scrap accepted the hand.
"Thanks but I don't get it why couldn't Aron do it we did it before and it worked." Scrap complained.
"Listen metal type pokemon are a very hard type to train, I once met the metal master Steven when dad had a meeting with the elite four the league champion and other strong trainers." Brendan explained. Scrap let Aron out of its great ball and gave it a max revive, Brendan walked back down the hill to leave Scrap alone with Aron. Scrap was talking to it a bit saying they were going to be the best but this happy moment was disturbed by a large explosion and a large amount of screams. Scrap returned Aron in a flash of red light and ran down the hill to witness the lab burning to the ground while team Magma members were laughing and beating the others in pokemon battles, they all had camerupts and they were all in the circle shouting attacks like embers and flamethrowers. Scraps dad was in the middle with a kabutops, a blastoise and a swampert. "All of you hydro pump!" Scrap shouted as the three water pokemon shot huge blast of water at the camerupts. They were going good until all the magmas clicked a button on their waist and the camerupts went into an uncontrollable rage. "All of you useless pokemon now use overheat!" They shouted all the camerupts using the attack Scraps father and his pokemon screaming in pain and then disappearing a flash of light.
Scrap woke up in cold sweat and panting he sighed and turned off the TV. He returned Aron to its great ball. He walked down stairs and grabbed some bread and sat down. "Hey ma im going to pallet town after dinner and see if anything interesting is going on." Scrap said as he started to dig into his pasta.
"You have to bring Aron you know there is tall grass on the way to pallet and you may encounter a pokemon or two." She warned as she cleaned up some dishes her sandslash standing on a stool and helping her dry it the dishes up.
"Fine." Scrap said grinning as he handed sandslash his plate and he walked out of the door and letting Aron out. "Hey buddy wants to battle some pokemon? He asked smiling and giving it some pokemon food. Aron nodded and the two were off in the grass looking for some pokemon. Scrap heard some grass shift he quietly told Aron to used mudslap on that area to cover the approaching pokemon. Aron did it and a small blue tadpole like pokemon jumped up angry. "Oh cool a poliwag." Scrap said a little excitement in his voice. "Alright Aron use take down." Scrap said happily as Aron charged at the poliwag. The poliwag jumped up and tackled Aron. Aron got up. "Okay Aron we couldn't do it with Brendan and his Mudkip a few months ago but we can o it now, use metal claw!" Scrap commanded as Aron charged at the poliwag right when it unleashed a water gun, Aron charged right through the water and hit it hard with its claw the claw magnificent silver. "Great job." Scrap said throwing a pokeball, it hit poliwag and opened up. The ball blinked red three times and then finally closed. "Welcome to the team poliwag." Scrap said smiling. "Alright you two to Pallet town." He said as he led Aron to Pallet town on the way they fought two pidgeys and a rattata. He used Poliwag on the rattata and on one of the pidgeys and he used Aron for the last one. Scrap was walking and securing his pokeballs on his belt, he didn't notice he was walking right towards a teen with spiky brown hair and a blue sweater. When he finally did notice, it was too late he walked right into him, Scraps pokeballs fell all over the place the empty ones and the two that were filled. "Sorry sir." Scrap said embarrassed.
"Hey no problem kid." The stranger said slowly lifting up poliwag's pokeball. "So you're a trainer and with the amount of pokeballs you have with something in them you just started, am I right?" The stranger asked grinning and handing Scrap poliwag's pokeball.
"Yea how did you know? Scrap asked securing it to his belt.
"Oh because im one of the best trainers around and leader of the viridian gym." The man said grinning.
"No way your Gary Oak, my names Scrap striker I was watching a program on you before I came here." Scrap said excitedly. "I got bored so I came here to see if I can catch the professor during one of his lectures to starting trainers." Scrap explained.
"You just missed it; I was the guest for this week I was showing how having a diverse team of pokemon can help you in almost any situation. I also show off my Rydon and Arcanine." Gary said smiling.
"Oh man I can't believe I missed it, when I was little I saw you in a battle during the indigo pokemon league, when I saw you're Rydon and your Arcanine I was amazed they were amazing." Scrap said amazed and disappointed that he missed the lecture.
"Well Scrap when you start your pokemon journey come over to the gym and im going to give you something." Gary said walking off.
"Alright." Scrap said running off to Oaks. He walked into the lab passing by some assistant's right into the back. He just caught the end of the lecture.
"Okay kids now remember type advantage is a very good thing to have in a battle but a pokemon's strength level and friendship with trainer affects a lot. Some pokemon even only evolve with friendship." Oak said happily as the kids started to file out.
"Professor Oak?" Scrap called as he walked to Oak who was in the back working on a red book looking device.
"Yes Scrap." He said smiling as he put the object down.
"I want to be a pokemon master or a coordinator may I have a pokedex and can you get me registered." Scrap said grinning.
"Why yes, when did you decide on this?" Oak asked as he walked to his computer and registered Scrap. He then handed Scrap a pokedex.
"I decided when I met your Grandson Gary." Scrap said grinning and taking the pokedex and his trainer card.
"Don't you want to pick a starter?" Oak asked a little confused but grinning that Gary can take a very sad kid and give him enough confidence to become a trainer.
"I got em." Scrap said grinning and lifting up Aron and Poliwags pokeballs. He thanked Oak and walked off back to Viridian. The sun was setting some stars were darted across the sky he heard a loud roar and a bunch of people shouting. Like anyone else he ran to the sound and he saw a kid around his own age battling two shady looking characters in black uniforms with TR across the shirt. "Hey leave me alone 2 on one isn't fair!" The kid shouted as he threw out a pokeball, a small human like pokemon appeared out of the flash of red light. Scrap pointed his pokedex at the pokemon and the pokedex started to talk. "Machop the muscle pokemon, its whole body is composed of muscles. Even though it is the size of a human child it can hurl 100 adults." The pokedex explained.
"Wow." Scrap said as the two people in uniforms sent out a venonat and a diglett. It seemed as if the two finished pronouncing a song Scrap heard the last two words which were their names. "Jack and Victoria." The two said grinning. "Okay Venonat use tackle." The female who was Vicky commanded. The pokedex continued to talk. "Venonat the insect pokemon, its eyes act as a powerful radar, enabling it to be active during the night its eyes also enable it to shoot powerful beams, Diglett the mole pokemon, this pokemon lives about a yard underground, where it eats roots it is sometime seen above ground." "Diglett use scratch!" Jack commanded. Scrap took a closer look at the group ready to help, the teen was wearing a baseball cap that was turned back words and a red shirt that had a bunch of fire pokemon it, and he was also wearing blue jeans. The two shady people were wearing identical black uniforms, Jack was wearing a cap tat covered up his blond hair and Victoria had long waist length black hair with green stripes going through them.
"Hey kid I'll help." Scrap said running to the group and letting poliwag out of its pokeball.
"Thanks the names Brian," He said as he jumped out of the way of venonat tackle. "Machop karate chop venonat. Brian commanded Machop running full speed at the small purple fur covered insect and hitting it with its hand. Venonat got hit but bounced of the dirt back onto his feet. "Venonat use growl then tackle." Victoria commanded. Venonat growled cutely and then used tackle while Machop was distracted. Machop was thrown into the tree but he got back up. "Alright Machop finish it with the move we were using against that beedrill." Brian shouted, Machop roared and charged at venonat sliding and tackling it. Venonat had swirls in its eyes. "Darn it, Jack finish that runt and then take this one on for me." Victoria shouted.
"Shut up Vicky." Jack shouted. "Alright runt get ready to lose, diglett dig under ground get behind the poliwag and use scratch." Jack shouted. Diglett dug under ground at extended its claws and swiped at Poliwag.
"Poliwag jump up and use bubble!" Scrap shouted. Poliwag jumped up in the air and unleashed a barrage of bubbles right when diglett came up. It was super effective but Diglett still stood. "Diglett use scratch again!" Jack shouted, Diglett swiped at poliwags face. Poliwag let out a cry. "Poliwag use bubble." Scrap shouted poliwag let out a barrage of small bubbles and knocked diglett out.
"We'll be back we always get our revenge." Vicky shouted as the two ran off with their pokemon.
"Thanks so were you heading off to?" Brian asked happily as he returned Machop in a flash of red light.
"Back to my house in viridian then im stopping off at the gym to go see Gary Oak." Scrap explained.
"Hey meet me in the forest I'll be training there." Brian said running off. Scrap smiled and walked to his house he opened the door and walked upstairs to his room. He started to pack. When he was done he walked downstairs to confront his mom. "Hey mom tomorrow morning im going to leave to go on a pokemon journey." Scrap said closing his eyes waiting for his mom to yell. "Okay, I knew this was going to happen one day, even when your father was killed I knew it was going to happen you just needed a pick me up." His mom said happily Sandslash walked in the room carrying a bag of gloves cloths, food and a pokenav. "No way I've always wanted one mom thanks." Scrap said hugging her. The next morning Scrap woke up ready to go he put on a green shirt and blue jeans. "See you mom." He said registering his home number and the professor's number. Scrap walked out Aron and Poliwag next to him. He walked right to Gary's gym. He then opened the door and was about to walk in.
