Rory's Pokemon Adventures
Chapter 1: VS Seviper
It was the dawn of a new day in Fuschia city. But it wasn't any old day. For today was the start of one boy's pokemon journey. Rory was 15. He had traveled as a breeder for 5 years with his trusty pokemon Zangoose nicknamed Zan. He never had much interest in battling, but all that changed on the day he watched a pokemon league match between Flint of the Sinnoh Elite Four and Steven the Hoenn champion. He watched the intricacies of the moves, the quickly made strategies, and the power of the bond between pokemon and trainer. He wanted to be there, fighting with Zangoose at full power against another powerful trainer.
"Good morning Zangoose" Rory said with a yawn. The normal type pokemon was lying in its bed on the floor.
"Zangoose" the pokemon said as he yawned.
"I take that as good morning" he smiled. He ran down stairs and saw his back pack with all the supplies he would need in it. He also saw a watch-like device next to it. It was a Poketch.
"Thanks mom, I've wanted one for so long" he said with excitement.
"If your going out in the world again I've got to make sure you're prepared" she explained with a worried smile.
"Well mom I have to go or I'll miss my flight".
"Have fun in Sinnoh, and make sure to call and write" his mom said trying to hold back a few tears. He gave her a hug and ran out the door.
On the flight he thought of what he was going to do first. He figured he was going to go get a Sinnoh starter from Professor Rowan. Then he remembered he had a pamphlet with the starters in it.
"I'm thinking about getting a Turtwig" he said to Zan. The pokemon nodded with acceptance.
The plane landed in the Jubilife airport and then the bus to Sandgem came. They arrived in Sandgem and he walked to the lab. He came in and immediately ducked because a flower pot went right over his head and shattered on the door. It was thrown by a Chimchar who was tearing up the lab. Professor Rowan was trying to get it back in its pokeball but the little red beam was avoided by the fire monkey every time. Not even the professor's young assistants could keep up with the little ball of energy.
"Zangoose, TACKLE" Rory yelled.
Zan jumped on the monkey but its flamethrower make Zan jump with pain. Chimchar charged at Rory but he dipped to the right and the monkey ran into the door. The force of the strike made the door glass shatter. The fire monkey ran out and into the forest.
"Hello, I'm sorry about the commotion but that Chimchar is just a ball of energy. You must be Rory, I'm professor Rowan. I will give you your starter when I get back but the starters are used to being fed by us and they don't know how to survive without humans to feed them" said the Professor.
Rory was ready to help.
"I'll go and find it." Rory said with enthusiasm.
"Are you sure you can handle it?" Rowan asked.
"Of course, me and Zan can do anything!" Rory yelled.
"I'm trusting you" Rowan said sternly.
The woods were dark. He could hear some kind of noise in the bushes. He thought it was going to be his first battle. He parted the bushes and he saw Chimchar crying in fear.
"Chimchar, are you ok?" Chimchar jumped on his shoulder and hid behind his head.
"What are you hiding from?"
Just then Zan smelled something and jumped into the bushes. There was a lot of hissing and screeching. Then Zangoose jumped up and slammed a Seviper on the ground. Rory knew what was happening. Zangoose and Sevipers had hated each other for as long as anyone can remember, and Zan was no different. This had happened once before, when they were traveling in Hoenn when Rory was a breeder. He had lifted his nose in the air, smelled, and jumped into some tall grass just to attack a Seviper. Zan had won then, and it looked as if he was going to win again.
Chimchar was still cowering on Rory's shoulder and whimpering. Then the Seviper slashed Zan with its poison tail. Zan slammed into a tree and was down for the count. Rory ran over to Zan, he was knocked out and poisoned. It seemed as if he was dying. Then the Seviper slithered over to Rory and was poised to strike with its huge fangs. It lunged and was about 3 inches from Rory's neck when Chimchar's tail flame grew to double its normal size. It used a huge flamethrower and the Seviper hissed in pain. It flew at least 20 feet and was out with one hit. Chimchar did a victory dance then passed out from the stress of the huge attack. Rory decided to put Zan in his pokeball (which he hated) and carried Chimchar so he could take them to a pokemon center.
Rory waited in the lobby while nurse joy treated Zan and Chimchar.
Nurse Joy came out of the ER. "Your Zangoose is hurt very badly but will be ok with a day of rest, and Chimchar is just tired" she said with a smile.
"Thank you very much nurse Joy" Rory said. They spent the rest of the day there and were ready to leave for the lab the next morning. Chimchar sat on Rory's shoulder and Zan walked right next to him. They arrived at the pokemon lab at around noon.
"Here's your Chimchar sir" Rory said sadly. Rory had become quite attached to the little guy and hated to give him back.
"Rory, would you like to take Chimchar as your starter?" Rowan said much to Rory's delight.
"Yes!! I mean if Chimchar wants to" Rory said in a calmer tone. He looked at Chimchar and asked
"You want to come with me and Zan on our adventure?"
"CHIM!" Chimchar said exited.
"Well then I guess your pokemon adventure has officially begun" Rowan said.
