A/N: Yes, Lia's Story finally begins again! NEW OCs are accepted, until 20 of them are submitted. However, next chapter posted will NOT be until after October 7th. Also, I am changing my style to POKEMON CAN TALK! Or at least Lia can understand them.
Poke-speech
Upon docking at Aspertia City, I looked around at the sights. Several birds I have never seen before, that looked similar to swans, flew overhead, screaming their names. Light gasped as she looked over at them from my head, until I sent her in her Poke-ball. I grinned and ran to what looked like a house.
The area was much different from Littleroot. For one, Littleroot Town was tiny and consisted of three houses, where it was more like a village than a town. The only building that made Littleroot significantly a town was the Pokemon Lab, where Professor Birch had lived. In Aspertia, there was a significant amount of houses, along with a Pokemon Center and Mart. I immediately went to the mart, but like the one at Oldale Town, there were no Poke-balls available to buy.
Another significant difference was the new Pokemon the city had. Everyone had some creature following them around, while back at home, it was only Drake, Birch, and I who had them. I noticed some blue fighting type wearing a karate suit with a black belt helping to make a new villa, which was where I would live. Not only that, but there were moving trash bags with faces. Never mind, those were Pokemon too. Multiple tiny pigeon-dove mixed Pokemon hung around the electrical wires. Yes, this city was much different than Littleroot. Welcome to Unova, Lia.
"We need to find the lab," Azul stated, her telepathic voice resonating in my mind. I nodded slightly, not wanting people to think I was hearing voices or something… Which I really was.
"I agree," Thor stated. He walked in the shadows, unnoticeably there so people would not gawk at him. I returned him immediately, along with his mate, Azul. I did not need attention with three Pokemon not from the region.
"You must be Lia Ashton, right?" a voice asked me. I looked up and saw a blonde haired girl with glasses that approached me. She had a pixie style haircut and looked at me with wide eyes. I looked at her and she carried a briefcase. Obviously, my newest team member was in it.
"Yeah, I am. Are you Professor Juniper?" I asked. She shook her head.
"I am Bianca Noir, the professor's assistant. You and Hugh, another kid, are getting your starter Pokemon today. But, I am sure you know how a Nuzlocke works, right?" she asked. I merely nodded.
"Great, follow me," she said cheerfully. I merely followed quietly, trying not to draw attention to myself.
"So you are my new rival…" a navy blue haired boy mused. His hair was messy, spiking up in a wild fashion, and he grinned. He looked about fourteen, and his skin was pale beyond point. I wondered vaguely if he was a vampire.
"Name's Hugh," he said. I nodded and muttered my name, not one for introductions.
"Wait, you're the Hoenn Champion," he said. Then he snickered.
"What's so funny?" I asked, offended.
"Well, it's funny that you guys still think there are only about 400 Pokemon, or was it 300?" I groaned, realizing how that was true. Most in Littleroot did not even know about Mew, only knowing about Pokemon like Latios and Latias. It was only upon Birch getting news from a sighting of Mew from Professor Juniper that we realized where Mew was located. And this all happened AFTER I toured Shinnoh, Johto, and Kanto. Great.
"Good of you to tell me," I faked a smile and shook his hand. He realized my forced smile and scowled a little, but took my hand anyways.
"Um, here are your Pokedexes and you can choose your Pokemon." Said Bianca. I nodded and looked at the three Pokemon.
The first was a little blue and white otter. It smiled at me and held up a scallop, but I looked away at it. It then began to cry and I knew it was not my type. This was an Oshawott. The second was a tiny red and black pig, called Tepig. I knew it to be a fighter, but still, I had to look at the third. The third was a green and white snake with legs. I gse snake with ott. ack pig. I knew it to be a fighter, but still, I had to look at the third. The third was a green and to crt gave me a smirk and winked, but I raised my eyebrow at it. It frowned and I grinned.
"I pick Snivy," I said, as Bianca handed me the Poke-ball. Welcome to the team, Excalibur.
