I know that the Brendan/May adventure has been overused, but I still made a different Hoenn Story. Along with a bunch of other crap I added. Most from the video games, but gym battles and normal battles are from anime. Brendan also gets a rival, and it's not May...
Disclaimer: I don't Own Pokemon, but I do own several characters in the story.
Chapter I: New Place, New Pokemon, and New Rivals
From a distance, anyone could see a huge moving truck coming rolling through. It was big, red with a white Pokeball symbol on it, and a male truck driver and a female was in the front seat. But inside the truck was a boy about 11 years of age, with snow white hair, light skin, and hazel eyes. He was wearing a red and black sweater with a yellow collar, black pants, yellow fingerless gloves, red, white, and black shoes, and to top it all off, a black headband with a red Pokeball symbol. His name is Brendan Maple.
He was showing off his dodging skills most of the ride (the boxes), and he had his good share of practice of this because of his old school loved the game dodgeball for gym class.
"Stupid things," he said out loud while dodging another one that was headed right to his face and sitting on a box. It's a good thing I was a kick ass player of dodge ball in Goldenrod City..." All of a sudden, the truck went to an abrupt stop, jerkiing Brendan to the steel door of the truck, and making him look like a rag doll.
"Ow!" he yelled as soon as he connected the door. "Stupid driver, what's happening up there, is mom giving the driver head or something?" The big door opened up, and his mom was standing in front of him.
"What was that about me," his mom asked with a goofy smile on her face.
"It was nothing," Brendan said. "Don't worry 'bout it."
"Well okay then," his mom said. "Welcome to your new home." She said with a normal smile this time. "Don't you like it?" she asked.
"Yeah, it's alright," Brendan said while walking inside the house. He saw a bunch of Machoke carrying boxes and setting up the house.
"Go up to your room and set your clock honey," his mom yelled up at him while he was heading upstairs. So Brendan headed up to his room and took a good look at it. It was bigger than his last room, with just his bed, computer, clock, television with his Game Cube set up, and his rug. And his room looked larger because there was a lot more room. He went to set up his clock and headed to his P.C.
"The potion that Janelle gave me should still be in here." He said while taking it out and putting it into his bag. Then he headed downstairs…
"Brendan, get down here quickly!" His mom yelled to him. "Your father is on the news! Come quickly!" Brendan came down at normal pace and looked at the television set.
"And that was Norman Maple of Petalburg City Gym. And this is Gabby and T.Y. from Petalburg City, going back to you Tom…"
"Aw, we missed him." Brendan's mom said. "He was on the news on a report on him being the new leader. Oh well, why don't you go meet the neighbors.
"Sure, whatever," Brendan said while heading out the door to the house next door. It was weird because it was just like reflection of his house. But he only stayed on the subject shortly, because he went to the door, and headed on in.
"Hey," a voice from inside said. "What are you doing in my house?"
"Oh, um…I'm sorry ma'am." Brendan said while heading out.
"Whatever kid," she said while standing up. "I'm just sick of people coming into my house without knocking. But you're the new neighbor, and you look about my daughter's age. How old are you kid?"
"Um…11," Brendan answered nervously.
"Hmm…exactly her age." She said while starting to smoke a cigarette. "Yeah, my husband is at work, which is just the building below us. If you want to see May just head upstairs, and the room to the right, you'll see it'll be her room."
"But what if she's doing something…" Brendan asked.
"Oh relax you pervert, she's just cleaning her room." Brendan just shrugged, and headed upstairs.
"Well, mom said to change after I clean my room, so…" as the girl in the room took off her shirt, Brendan walked in.
"Hey I'm Bren…WHOA!" he yelled when he saw the girl.
"HEY!" the girl screamed while picking up her TV remote and was smacking Brendan with it.
From downstairs, May's mom heard a loud thud from her daughter's room.
"I wonder what that noise could be," she said while giggling. "Ooh, I love playing jokes." Mrs. Birch went upstairs and saw Brendan on the floor with a huge red vertical mark on his face, and a slight nose bleed.
"MOM," the girl yelled. "He was looking at my chest!"
"Oh relax May, your only 11, even though their bigger than most of the girls at your school, but don't worry about it."
"Whatever," she said. The girl named May had light brown hair and sapphire eyes. She was wearing (after she changed) a red shirt with some black just below the collar and some white at the bottom of the shirt, white gloves where the fingers were black, short shorts (looking like some booty shorts to Brendan), semi-long black socks, red, black, and yellow shoes, a yellow fanny pack that was around her waist, and a red bandana with a white Pokeball symbol on it.
"Well," May thought to herself. "This new guy is a lot cuter than that loser Albert who moved to Kanto." She thought while staring at Brendan and losing her anger towards him.
"Anyways," she said out loud. "I have to go help dad with his Pokemon research. I guess I'll see you later…"
"Brendan," he said telling her his name and standing up.
"Okay then," she started. "I'll see you later Brendan," she said while leaving her room. Brendan just looked at May's room, which was a reflection of his room, and headed out as well.
"I guess I'll go to Prof. Birch's lab to see something interesting in this one horse town." Brendan said while leaving May's house. When he got there he took a look inside, and saw a man with glasses and writing stuff on paper.
"Hello Professor Birch," Brendan said with a smile.
"Oh I'm not Professor Birch, I'm his assistant, Professor Birch is out doing fieldwork." The man said.
"Oh," Brendan said feeling like a dumbass.
"But I know you can find him on Route 101." He said with a smile.
"Um…ok then," Brendan said while leaving the lab and headed up Route 101. He was expecting peace and quiet while he was headed to find the Pokemon professor, but he was very wrong.
"HELP!" a male voice screamed. Brendan ran over to the voice, and saw a middle
aged man who was hanging on a tree branch, and saw a little Poochyena barking at him.
"Young man," he screamed. "Look in my bag, there's a Pokeball! Please use it to save me!"
"Um…"Brendan said while thinking quickly. He looked into the man's bag, and saw three Pokeballs inside. Quickly, Brendan grabbed one, and threw it out. What came out of the ball was a little blue fish looking thing on all fours.
"You look like a water Pokemon, am I right?" Brendan asked anxiously.
"Mudkip mud (trans: sure am!)." The thing said.
"Alright then, whatever you are use Water Gun at that dog looking thing." He said. Brendan didn't know about Hoenn Pokemon, and it was going to take a while for him to get used to them. But the blue thing sprayed a pretty large water gun at the little dog, and it ended up running away.
"Wow," the man who Brendan assumed was Professor Birch. "Thank you for that." He said with a smile of gratitude.
"It was nothing." Brendan said with a smug attitude. He couldn't help himself from being arrogant at times.
"Come with me to my lab." He said while turning and walking away. Brendan followed without question, and for a few minutes, Brendan had to endure Prof. Birch's ass in his face while they were going to the lab. When they finally reached it, Professor Birch looked at Brendan and smiled at him.
"Well Brendan, I heard that you didn't have a Pokemon yet, so I'll let you keep the Mudkip that you saved me with," he said with a smile.
"Um…" Brendan said. "Thank you, I guess."
"No problem," the professor said. "Hey, my kid May is out on Route 103 studying the local Pokemon wildlife, go see her.
"Even though you don't tell me what to do," Brendan said in his smug voice and turning around. "I guess I'll go look for her." And left the lab before Prof. Birch could say anymore. While heading on back to Route 101, Brendan had to fight some Pokemon on his way to Oldale Town, and Route 103. The annoying thing about it though, was that all of these Zigzagoons or Wurmples would just pop out of nowhere in the tall ass grass, and want to battle Brendan.
"Damn, I want to catch one of these stupid things, but all I have is this stupid Potion, and I know that Oldale isn't too far away." Brendan said in annoyance of the Pokemon wildlife. When he reached Oldale Town, he saw a few buildings, a house, a Pokemon Center, and a Pokemart. All of a sudden, some random kid ran out of the house.
"Mom I'll be fine don't worry," he said while rushing.
"Hey kid," Brendan asked. "Where are you going?"
"Littleroot Town!" he yelled at him. "Professor Birch is going to give me my first Pokemon, and I can't be late," he said while turning and running towards where Brendan just came up from. The kid was wearing a black short sleeve shirt with a large burgundy rectangle in the middle, blue jeans, black shoes, and black wrist bands. He had light brown hair and honey colored eyes.
"Hmm…" Brendan said. I wonder if he gets the Pokemon he likes. But it ain't going to be Mudkip!" Brendan yelled outloud while going to the Pokemon Center. He walked inside, and saw a couple of Pokemon trainers talking to one another. Ignoring them, he went up to the nurse wearing a white nurse attire, and a weird hair do, along with pink hair to top it all off.
"Hello, welcome to the Oldale Town Pokemon Center. Would you like me to heal your Pokemon?" she asked in a bored attitude.
"Yes please," Brendan said while handing the nurse his Mudkip's ball.
"What," she said. "One Pokemon, you must be a sucky ass trainer," she said while looking disgusted.
"Well, I'm a damn beginner, no need for you to act like a bitch towards me!" Brendan said offended.
"Well, you need to catch more Pokemon, and become a real trainer. Then you might get laid," she said while putting the Pokemon on a tray and pressing a button.
"Wha, Wha, WHAT?" Brendan asked, shocked to hear a woman like the nurse to say something like that. The machine stopped, and the woman handed Brendan Mudkip's ball.
"Look, my name is Nurse Joy. Sorry to bitch at you, but it's just that time of the month for me…"
"Um…whoa, too much information there, whatever that means" Brendan said while turning to leave.
"Well if you wanted to know why I was bitchy…" the nurse yelled at him. "It's called PMS!"
"God what was her problem," Brendan asked himself while walking out of the center. "And what's the time of the month or PMS mean? Oh well, I guess if I become a famous Pokemon trainer, then I might get laid, even by that hot chick May." He said while going to the big building with the blue roof.
"Ah, a new trainer I see," a man in front of the building asked.
"Yeah, and the next trainer in front of Trainers Monthly," Brendan said with a grin on his face.
"Actually, it's a girl named Melisa who just won the Johto League Gold Conference." The man said.
"Oh, well then, when I get more famous and stuff." Brendan said while feeling dumb.
"Anyways," the man said while pointing to the building he was in front of. "This is a Pokemart. Just look for our blue roof, you'll find us." The man said with a smile.
"Whatever," Brendan said while heading up to Route 103. While walking up there, he had to fight more Pokemon, only this time, there were some Poochyena mixed in with the other two Pokemon he kept frequently fighting.
"Man, I need some cash." Brendan said while seeing a familiar girl bending over with her butt in the air. She was scribbling something on notebook paper, and looking at some Zigzagoon footprints. Brendan decided he wanted to get back at her for the remote thing earlier. So he quietly walked up to her while she was mumbling some stuff about how a Poochyena's footprint is slightly bigger than a Zigzagoon's footprint, and grabbed her butt and squeezed with force. May screamed, and turned around to punch Brendan in the cheek with good force.
"You perv," she yelled at him. "Why did you do that?"
"Well, your butt was in the air." Brendan said while standing up. And that remote thing I had to get back at you for…"
"Wait 'til our fathers here about this." She said with a grin. "You'll be in big trouble for this one." She said while her face turned back to serious.
"You won't tell," Brendan started. "Because I challenge you to a Pokemon battle. If I win, I get to squeeze your butt again, and you can't tell anybody that I did. And if you win, you can punch me again, and tell anyone that I did it.
"Hmm…" she said with a thinking look on. "What you did was wrong, but your match is equal in satisfactions if either of us wins, and good consequences if the either of us loses. Yeah, I'll accept your challenge, but don't forget to prize money rule.
"Right," Brendan said while pulling his Pokeball out and ready for his first battle. "I chose you, Mudkip," Brendan said. The little mud fish Pokemon came out of its ball and tilted its head while saying its name.
"Hm…" May said while looking at Mudkip. "We might be to a little disadvantage, but we can still beat him, Torchic!" she yelled while throwing its ball out. A little orange chick came out, and said its name just like all other Pokemon do.
"Ladies first," May said. "So Torchic, use Scratch on Mudkip." The little chick Pokemon rushed towards the mud fish, and scratched his face with its foot.
"Alright then, Mudkip, Tackle it." Mudkip obeyed, and started to rush at Torchic.
"Torchic, dodge and use Focus Energy," May said. The chick Pokemon moved just in time, and turned red. Then it went back to normal.
"Mudkip, use another Tackle attack." Brendan said getting worried. Mudkip ran towards Torchic again, and this time the tackle connected.
"You can shake it off Torchic," May said while Torchic was getting up. Then it literally shook off and stared at Mudkip. "Good, now fry that fish up with your Ember!" she said. Torchic blew little fireballs at Mudkip, coming awfully close to connect.
"Quick, Mudkip, dodge them!" Brendan yelled getting more worried. Mudkip did dodge most of them, but about 5 of them hit Mudkip. He fell over and looked like he was out…
"No, I can't lose," Brendan said. "Wait a minute," he said while reaching in his bag, and pulling out the potion…
"Let's wrap this up, Torchic, burn it with your Ember again," she said. While Torchic was sending out little fireballs to Mudkip, it just randomly stood up and glared at Torchic.
"Okay Mudkip, dodge and use Water Gun!" Brendan said. Mudkip dodged every little flame, and shot Torchic with a nice Water Gun that got a direct hit, sending Torchic to the ground.
"Now, finish it off with your Mud-Slap!" Brendan said. Mudkip dug its tail into the ground, and just when it stood up, Mudkip slapped Torchic back down with its Mud-slap. You could just see the twists in its eyes that Torchic was out.
"Alright, I won." Brendan said in triumph.
"Mudkip (trans: Alright)," Mudkip said.
"Well, great job Torchic, you deserve a good rest," May said returning Torchic to its ball.
"And as you know, I get to grab your butt, and you're not allowed to tell." Brendan said proudly. May regretfully gave Brendan 300P and he was able to squeeze her butt, and she couldn't complain. After the humiliation, May started to head back to her father's lab.
"Come on, lets go," she said with an annoyed tone. Brendan walked with his head held high, and May walked with hers held low in shame. "That's why I hate battling." She said.
"Why, because you always lose," Brendan asked smugly while they reached Oldale Town.
"No, I'm actually more interested in Pokemon Contests more. That's what I want to do, not battle with them."
"Oh, well if that's what you want, then that'll have me one step closer to becoming a famous Pokemon Master," Brendan said while entering Route 101.
"Yeah, but I guess I'll tell my dad once we get back to his lab." She said with her head still headed low. The rest of the walk back was quiet, more Pokemon jumped at them, but they both just ignored them while heading back to the lab.
"Hey May," Brendan said.
"What," she answered annoyed.
"What's the time of the month?" Brendan asked sounding stupid.
When they finally reached it, and headed in, the boy that Brendan saw earlier was in there playing with a green looking Pokemon with big yellow eyes.
"May, Brendan, where were you two," Professor Birch said while giving them a red device and 10 Pokeballs (5 each). "The red device is called a Pokedex; it stores information on all of the different Pokemon here in the Hoenn region. May and Brendan opened up their Pokedexes, and listened to the voice inside.
"Hello, my name is Jessica, the Hoenn Region Pokedex." All three of the Pokedexes said at the same time. "Please enter your name, height, and weight." It said.
"Why does this thing need our height and weight?" the boy asked.
"Because this Pokedex has new technology, it can compare your height and weight to any Pokemon available in the Hoenn Region," Professor Birch said with a smile. There's a weight scale and a height measurer over there.
"Cool," Brendan said while entering his name (Brendan Maple), height (5'2"), and his weight (92 lbs.). The other boy and May also did the same things with there Pokedexes, and then took out their Pokemon. On unison, they each pointed there Pokedex at May's Torchic. And the three Pokedexes talked in unison.
"Torchic, the Chick Pokemon. Torchic sticks with its trainers, following with unsteady steps. This Pokemon breathes fire of over 1800 degrees F, including fireballs that will leave the opponent scorched black." Then they pointed their devices at the green Pokemon.
"Treecko, the Wood Gecko Pokemon. Treecko has small hooks at the bottom of its feet that enable it to scale vertical walls. If a bigger foe were to stare at this Pokemon, it would glare right back without conceding an inch of ground." And then they pointed their Pokedexes to Brendan's Mudkip.
"Mudkip, the Mud Fish Pokemon. The fin on Mudkip's head acts as a highly sensitive radar. Using this fin to sense movements out of water and air, this Pokemon can determine what's taking place without using its eyes.
"This thing's pretty cool," Brendan said while looking at it some more.
"Not really, it's just a simple device," the guy said while putting his up.
"Oh um…I never got your name," Brendan said.
"Well of course you didn't," the guy said in a smug kind of way. "Because I never told you."
"Well you don't have to be smug about it." Brendan said coldly.
"Oh so now your all dark all of a sudden?" he asked while grinning at him.
"If I were dark, you'd notice, you retard." Brendan said.
"Did you just call me a retard." The guy said getting offended and going to Brendan's face.
"Did I stutter," Brendan said doing the same thing.
"Now gentlemen, no need for any harsh arguments here," Professor Birch said. "You're friends and…"
"Naw Professor," the guy said again. "I don't befriend asses like this old man here."
"And I don't befriend guys who go through PMS like you do," Brendan said. May told him that girls got mad for some reason. The new guy had no comeback, so he simply left without another word.
"Yeah Brendan," May said. "How did your hair get so white anyways?"
"Well, back in Johto my hair was black, but this bully declared that he was going to do pull his last prank on me for the last day of school. So even though I tried to avoid him, but one of his goons got me, and had a bucket of white hair dye. They dunked me into it, until my hair was pure white, like how it is. The sucky part is, it dried when they threw me down. I went home trying to wash it, but it didn't come out. But hey, I'm used to it by now."
"So why don't you just get some black dye, and get your hair back to normal," Prof. Birch asked.
"Well, I like it this way," Brendan said while putting his hand threw his hair.
"Oh," May said. "So…"
"I think that you and Brendan should travel together and take the Hoenn League Challenge," Prof. Birch said. "You two would be fine traveling together, catching Pokemon, sharing strategies to defeat gym leaders, and all of that." He said with a smile.
"Um…Dad," May said with her head down.
"Yes dear," he said with a goofy smile still on.
"Um…I don't want to take the Hoenn League Challenge with Brendan." She said. "I'm more interested in Pokemon Contests." She said while looking at him.
"Um…" the Pokemon professor said with a confused look. "Oh, Contests. They are pretty famous here, and I give you permission to do so if you still travel with Brendan, I can't have either of you go out alone.
"Thank you daddy," she said while hugging him in delight.
"We gonna get freaky in this journey," Brendan thought with a perverted grin on his face.
"Um…Brendan are you okay," May asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine!" Brendan said thinking quickly.
"It's settled then. May and Brendan traveling together through Hoenn. I'll call your father to let him know that you're coming up his way." Prof. Birch said.
"Okay then," Brendan said while him and May turned and headed out the door.
