Full Summary:
Green has been waiting for this day her whole life and is just about ready to set off to begin her very own Pokemon journey.
But things aren't always easy. Take camping without a proper bath tub for one thing. Or all these trainers demanding to battle any which way you look. Also those bug Pokemon jumping on you at the most unexpected times.
And what's with that sinister Team Rocket that always insists on recruiting her. Plus that creepy kid who never seems to leave her alone.
Luckily, she has her beloved Squirtle, Naga, by her side. Together with her two childhood friends-turned-rivals, what could possibly go wrong?
But first she needs to get the hell out of this stupid Mt. Moon.
"So he gives us our Pokemon and makes us his delivery boys because he forgot to change the address at the Wingull Post Service."
Blue kicks a stone into the stream with a lazy plop, startling a few goldeen swimming around. He continues, "I say we ditch it and set off now. I bet they're probably a box of Lava cookies or a bag of Pecha Berries from the south or something equally boring."
Red sighs like he was used to this kind of behavior. In a way, he has; being next-door neighbors to the cocky, impatient Blue for sixteen years can develop a high tolerance to idiots (especially the rich kind).
"We have to go back. It's the least we can do for Professor Oak. He gave me my pikachu without even charging a dime." Blue fondly patted his bright yellow mouse Pokemon. Pikachu's red cheeks sparked and he let out a content 'Pikaa'
"He wasn't supposed to charge you for him, stupid. Pikachu was yours to begin with." Blue said as he watched his own bulbasaur playing with Green and Naga by the stream.
Red followed the boy's gaze and smiled as Green pulled Blue's bulbasaur from the stream he fell into. Green laughed as the green plant Pokemon shook himself dry.
"Yeah, well not all of us are rich grandkids of famous professors."
Blue noticed the boy's gentler and more relaxed tone and knew instantly the cause. He knew. Of course he knew. They've been best friends for over a decade, how could you not? But rather than teasing him like he would on a normal day, Blue got up and yelled, "Hey, Green! Are you ready?"
The brunette trained her bright smile at the two boys sitting by a rock and stood up. She told the two Pokemon that they should get going, then waved back and said, "Let's go!"
"I told you, they'd be cookies."
"Oh don't be such a grumpy mankey, Blue. The Professor's happy and we can finally get on with our journey. Plus I got a Lava cookie I've been dying to try. I'd say it's a win-win situation." Green said as she stared up at the blue sky and white cotton clouds passing by.
They'd asked for directions to the entrance Daisy said would take them straight through the Viridian Forest to get to Pewter City and ultimately, the Pewter City Gym. They were currently taking a break and stopping for lunch under a tall Alder tree watching the busy Viridian city pass them by.
"Yeah, we heard you the last sixty or so times. Give it a rest, Blue." Red added as he scooped another heaping pile of Pokemon food on their Pokemon's dish.
Pikachu and the others devoured it the minute it reached their dishes.
Green laughed, "They deserve third and fourth helpings, Red. Naga battled really well."
Blue jumped down from the branch he was lazing on and gave an indignant huff, "I was going easy, seeing as that was your first battle."
Red interjected saying, "Yeah well she still won against both pikachu and bulbasaur. I guess you could say it was beginner's luck."
Green furrowed her eyebrows and retorted, "Excuse you. All that was pure skill and I'm going to be the first to get to the Hall of Fame, just you watch. Isn't that right, Naga?"
The blue Squirrel-turtle Pokemon looked up from his plate and cried out, "Squirtle squirt!"
"Once I teach bulbasaur some grass-type moves, you'll be sorry." Blue warned, only his tone gave him away and Green only stuck out her tongue despite the smile forming on her lips.
"We'll see."
As they made their way to the Pokemon Center to stock up on items before heading to the Viridian Forest, they noticed a couple of strange looking men in black uniformed outfits surrounding an ace trainer. And the trainer didn't looked too pleased.
"I told you, no! Are you three nitwits too stupid to understand what no means?"
The man in the middle replied with a creepy grin plastered on his face, "But think about what you can achieve if you join Team Rocket!"
"And you'll surely be a Top Rank Admin." one added.
"And be paid handsomely by our bosses." the last says.
"I'd love to, but that would be a lie. And if you bother me one more time, I'm calling the police." With that, the trainer walked away leaving the trio stunned and frustrated.
The wise move in this case, when three strange men glare at you with wicked intentions, would be to move along as quickly as possible and not make eye contact at all. But Green couldn't bring herself to move and felt her feet rooted to the ground. She felt a throb in her temple and her fingers itched towards her Pokeball.
Red looked back, realizing the brunette was missing. He noticed the three creepy looking guys making their way towards her and the tense stance Green held. Red immediately yelled Green's name.
"What about you, girlie. Want to join Team Rocket?" The same middle man beckoned to the girl.
"No?" He said when his question was answered only by Green's steely gaze. "Okay, we can soon change that."
For the whole of the battle, Red and Blue found themselves as engaged in the battle as Green was. Naga attacked with more force than usual, sensing his trainer's fury. The three grunts were no match for Naga and the result was in favor of Green.
The strangers ran away with empty threats to call their parents. "You'll pay for this!" They screamed as people shot them odd looks before continuing on with their business.
"That was amazing, Green!" Red exclaimed as the brunette walked back to them with a grim expression on her face.
"Even I have to admit you were pretty damn cool." Blue said, one hand on a hip with a smirk to match. Blue saw the expression on Green's face; the usual cheeky-cheerfulness was absent.
"What's wrong?" All teasing left his voice.
Green only shook her head and began until a voice interrupted their conversation, "You were wise not to join Team Rocket."
Green spun around only to come face to face with an equally strange looking boy with firey-red hair.
