A/N: Hi guys, I am back with another fanfic. It is about a love story between a human and pokemon. It is between a Gardevoir and a boy named Sam. Actually it is all about their adventure of conquest of Johto League.

I don't know its good or bad, I will leave this up to you. Don't expect any romantic stuff in the beginning, both characters will slowly and eventually fall for each other. So be patient and enjoy the story.

All reviews and comments are welcome.

Bond Between Them…

Chapter-1 The Beginning

A boy is in his room watching TV. He is watching a pokemon battle between 2 trainers, it is Gengar V/S Onix. They both are fighting furiously.

"It's great! It's really great." he shouts in joy.

"Come on Sam, come down, dinner is ready." a female voice calls him from downstairs.

"OK mom, just a little bit more." he replies.

After few minutes, that fight ended with Gengar as its winner. Then that boy switches OFF the TV and runs downstairs for the dining room.

"Mom, where's the dinner? I am really hungry.", he says.

"Take your seat Sam, I will bring it to you in a moment.", she replies.

That boy takes his seat. After sometime, his mother serves the food and he doesn't waste any more time and begins eating.

Actually he is a 17 years old boy, his name is Samuel Connor, Sam in short. He lives with his mother, Daisy Connor in a small town in Johto region, New Bark town. He has not any siblings. He hasn't seen his father even for a once. According to his mother, he is a great adventurer and explorer, he left Sam and his mother when he was just a single year old for another adventurous errand. Just like his father, Sam also wants to become an adventurer and explore the whole world, discovering new pokemons, but on top of his ambitions, he wants to become the pokemon master, the most powerful pokemon trainer in the world. In order to achieve his dream, he has to climb the stairs of success one-by-one and his first step is to get a pokemon of his own. To do this, he is going to meet Professor Elm, who lives next door.

Actually, Sam lives in a very small town. Though he only lives with his mother, he has lot of friends. Since his town is so small, everybody lives peacefully and knows each other. There is also a famous personality among them and that is Professor Elm. He is a famous scientist of pokemons who has done great discoveries about pokemons. He is middle-aged bachelor. He loves the kids of his town very much as well as pokemons in the whole world. He still wants to discover every pokemon present in the world, to do so he seeks the help of young trainers. That's why he is going to distribute many new pokemons among new trainers next morning. He is doing so because those new trainers will travel across the land and search new pokemons. Sam also wants to become a part of professor's ambition, so he is going to get his first pokemon and begin the errand of his own.

After eating dinner, Sam goes upstairs in his room, changes his clothes and switches OFF the light and lays in his bed to sleep. He is not able to sleep at all, after all it's a very important day for him next morning, he is too excited to sleep.

After an hour, he is finally able to sleep, but he is still dreaming about his first pokemon.

"Wow, I +have my own pokemon.", he says in sleep, "But who it should be? Should it be Chikorita?...Yes! I want Chikorita, a grass type pokemon is really a good idea, but wait, what about…. Cyndaquil? ... Yeah, that's right, fire type pokemon is really hot, but wait….it's too early to decide…, what about…..Totodile? YES!...Totodile is the best idea, water type pokemon really suits me, after all it's so cool. Totodile, use Watergun, finish our enemy…yes, Totodile, use Tackle… that's great…..", and like that, he goes on dreaming the whole night.

Next day, he wake up in the morning and looks at the wall-hanging clock in front of him.

"WHATTTT!", he shouts in shock when he realizes that he's already late. He quickly takes a bath, changes his clothes and runs for Professor's Lab, even without breakfast.

When he reaches there, he sees many young trainers like him coming out of Professor. Elm's house, with their first pokemons in their hands.

"Wow! Look, my Pidgey's great.", one of them says.

"My Nidoran is also awesome."

"My Jigglypuff's so cute, isn't it?", everybody seems so happy after getting their first pokemons.

'I hope it's not too late for me.', Sam thinks. Then he hurries for Prof..

When he enters his room, he finds prof. there, he approaches him.

"Good morning Professor.", he greets him.

"Oh… it's you Sam, very good morning."

"You really did a great job, everybody seems so happy with their pokemons."

"Yeah, you bet."

"So, can I get a pokemon too?"

"Of course Sam, just wait a moment, I will give it to you."

"OK sir, as you wish."

Then he searches his pokeballs storage. After searching for a while, he says to Sam,

"Sam, there is a problem."

"What do you mean by problem?"

"Actually you arrived here late and all of the pokemons are already distributed."

"What!? Really?"

"I am sorry Sam.", after hearing this, Sam just stands there in shock, seeing his all dreams get shattered in pieces.

'My Chikorita…, my Cyndaquil….., my Totodile…", he keeps on recalling their names. He didn't get his first pokemon just because he got up late in the morning. He really curses himself for doing that but nothing can be done now. He leaves the Prof.'s house with gloomy face.

'Curse you, curse you, curse you, just die in hell.' hew curses himself. When he is cursing himself in the middle of his agony, he sees a strange presence in bushes far away near the town border. Then that bush suddenly makes violent movement and something escapes from the bushes into the deep forest. Sam rushes towards it. He is about to reach the town border when a man comes in his way and stops him,

"Hey you there, stop right now." he says to Sam.

"What happened mister?"

"I guess you are still young and haven't got any pokemon, am I right?"

"Yes sir."

"Then I am sorry young lad, you are not allowed to go in the forest."

"But why not?"

"Because there are many wild pokemons out there, they can harm you if you don't have your own."

"But sir-"

"No my son, I will not listen to you, you have to go now."

"O-OK, as you say.", then Sam takes a few steps back, turns around and pretends to go but he is not intended to give up that easily. When he finds that man is not looking, he quickly hurries towards the forest and begins looking for 'strange presence'. He is desperately finding it, he is looking in almost every bush he sees, but cannot find it.

"Damn it, where does it go? I probably would have found it if that man didn't stick his nose.". He finds here and there. When he is searching, he senses some stalkers are following him. He looks around to see them. There he sees many angry red eyes in bushes. It seems that they are going to ambush Sam. He looks terrified, he falls on the ground due his legs shaking in fear. Then a flock of mad Spearows comes out of the bush and rush towards him. Sam is there on the ground seeking for help, but there is no one to help him. They charge towards him. When they are going to strike him, then suddenly a strange creature appears besides Sam from nowhere, it holds Sam's hand and then they both vanishes into nothingness and those charging Spearows hit directly on the ground, missing Sam and of course hurting their own beaks.

Back in the town, Sam appears outside of Professor Elm's house with that creature. Then Sam has a closer look on it, it is a small creature, less than half meter in height, its body is full of white fur, it has green hair covering it's both eyes with a pair of pink horns growing on its head. It is probably a wild pokemon.

"Hey, hey….. did you save me from those Spearows?". It nods.

"Well thank you very much, you really helped me, I don't know what would have happened if you weren't there." . It then slightly blushes after hearing this.

"But I have seen a pokemon like you for the first time, who are you?"

"Ral….Ral…." it tries to tell but Sam doesn't understand anything. Then he looks around himself and finds that he is just outside Prof. Elm's house. He gets an idea then.

"I….. I am sorry but I can't understand you, but there is a man that can help us, now come with me." He says. Sam picks it in his arms and hurries for Prof. Elm's lab. After reaching there, he approaches him.

"Hey Professor…." He says.

"Ohhhh….. it's you Sam, what's up?"

"Look at that pokemon, it just saved me."

"Saved you?"

"Yeah….." then Sam narrates him the whole story that happened with him.

"Hmmmm….. I see."

"Yes, I can, it is a Ralts"

"Ralts?"

"Yes, that pokemon is called Ralts, it is a psychic type pokemon, it can use various moves that will amaze you, like what it used to save you is Teleport."

"Really?"

"Yeah, the horns on its head, it can also judge people's emotions with its horns"

"Wow, it's really great."

"Hey Sam, I have an idea"

"What is it?"

"You don't have a pokemon of your own, then why don't you start with this Ralts?"

"Really?"

"Yeah, but you have to ask it first"

"Hey Ralts, do you want to stay with me from now, I promise I will keep you well, I will raise you properly, I will never harm you, please stay with me, please become my first pokemon"

There is a period of silence for some time, Sam is eagerly waiting for its answer, at next second, it nods.

"Yipeee….. I have finally got my first pokemon" Sam innocently smiles at it.

"Well, good for you Sam, you have got your first pokemon."

"Yes, I have."

"Sam, can I ask you for a favor?"

"Of course professor."

"Sam, you see this world is full of pokemons, we still don't know everything about them, it's a dream of my life that I get to know each and every existing pokemon of this world, but I can't do it alone, that's why I entrust new generation trainers like you with this task. Now Sam, will you help me to achieve my dream?"

"Yes sir, as you say"

"Excellent Sam. I know that this errand will not be easy for you, now let me give you something that will help you on your journey" after saying this, Prof. hands many things to Sam from his desk.

"Hey Sam, take all these things."

"But what are these things?"

"Don't worry, I will tell you about everything, let's begin with this red-pocket size machine, it is a Poke-dex, you can say it is a whole encyclopedia of every known pokemon in your hands, it can tell you about everything about any pokemon, next is this Town Map, it has detailed information about our Johto region and also take these poke-balls with you, it will help you to catch pokemons, but be sure to buy them when you run out of'em from 'Shop' which is present in every town, do you understand?"

"Yeah all of it."

"Good, now go home and tell about this to your mom, you won't want to leave on an errand leaving behind her worrying about you, do you?"

"Of course not professor."

"Good."

"Now I have to go home professor to do some preparations, good bye."

"Good bye Sam."

"See you later.". Sam runs for his mother, he can't wait to go on an adventure.

When he reaches home, he tells everything about it to his mother, he also shows his Ralts to her.

"Wow Sam, this Ralts is so beautiful."

"Sure it is."

"Sam, will you be alright on your journey?"

"Of course mom, I will. You don't have to worry about me."

"I know but you are all alone in your journey."

"Come on mom, I am not alone, Ralts is with me, after all I am going to catch many pokemons."

"Yeah ….."

"OK mom, I think I should be leaving now." Sam takes his bag pack and Ralts with him.

"Sam just be careful and properly look after your pokemons as well as yourself."

"Of course mom."

"And also be sure to properly look after your Ralts, after all its need are different from yours."

"What do you mean mom?"

"You Ralts, it is a female one, don't you know?"

"Really? I didn't know that."

"You didn't know but I can tell it is a female one, after all I have my own experiences with pokemons."

"OK, I will also take care of that."

"Then I guess its time for you to leave."

"Yeah, bye mom."

"Bye Sam, just be sure you do well."

"You too mom. See you later."

Sam begins his journey, journey full of adventure, journey of his conquest, conquest of his ambitions, his errand begins now.
