Chapter 1: First Pokémon

Jameson woke up with a start. Today would be the day he would get his first Pokémon and he wanted to be the first arrival. Jameson got up and got dressed and ran to Professor Oak's lab. As he ran he passed by Ash Ketchum's house and thought to himself "Hmm, Ash can be pretty late sometimes, maybe I should make sure he's up… Nah, he's really excited about this, there's no way he'll miss this."

As he neared the lab he noticed that he didn't eat breakfast before he left. Making a quick diversion he went to an apple tree that was just outside of town. After he ate the apple he tossed it over to a rattata who was looking at it hungrily. He then proceeded back to the lab and took his place in line, which happened to be first. As the sun started to rise he noticed other would-be trainers lining up behind him. He thought to himself "Hmm, no Ash, guess he's not getting a new Pokémon." Jameson already knew which Pokémon he wanted. He wanted a charmander. All of the sudden, the gates opened and Professor Oak called for the first trainer.

As Jameson entered he felt excited the closer he got to the lab. When he entered he could barely keep from shaking. Then Professor Oak asked "Do you know which Pokémon you want?"

Jameson said "Well, I have given it careful consideration and researching, and I have decided to go with Charmander."

"Ahh, an excellent choice." Professor Oak said as he handed Jameson Charmander's poke ball.

"Sweet! Come on out Charmander!" Jameson said as he tossed the poke ball into the air. The poke ball opened up and a bright white light shot out onto the floor and took the shape of a Charmander before fading away to reveal Charmander.

"Charmander Char" Charmander said.

"Hi Charmander, I'm Jameson. I'm your new trainer. I hope we can become best friends as we explore together. Together, we shall become a great team. I promise to take care of you and to be a good trainer. So what do you say, you want to come with me and go on an adventure?" Jameson asked Charmander.

"Charmander Char!" Charmander said in excitement as he skipped over to Jameson's side.

"I think he likes you." Professor Oak said.

"Awesome. Now it's up to you Charmander, do you want to walk with me outside the poke ball, or do you want to go in it?" Jameson asked.

"Char." Charmander replied as he motioned walking.

"Great! Then outside the poke ball you shall stay." Jameson said with a smile on his face.

"Good luck to you and Charmander!" Professor Oak said.

"Thank you Professor! Bye!" Jameson said as he and Charmander rushed out of his lab.
