(This story was something I decided to do and it uses my imagination and some real experiences that I had while playing the games myself. Enjoy!)

"Speech"

'Thought'

*Poké Speech*

Chapter 1

"This day couldn't get any better!" Grey said happily as he was packing his items in his backpack for this certain day.

Grey is a 14 year old teen that wears a blue and grey hoodie with the hood down, black sweatpants with matching black shoes. His backpack is black and grey with a white Poké Ball symbol on it.

Grey was turning 15 today and unlike other kids, who leave when they turn 10, his mom wanted him to learn about Pokémon more for a few more years before he leaves home. He had ate breakfast already and was just about finished packing when his mother came in to check on him.

"Do you have everything Grey? You'll need all your essentials when you leave." questioned Grey's mom.

"Yup! Now I've got to hurry to Prof. Oak's lab!" Grey exclaimed. "Bye mom, I love you!" "Love you too, sweetie. Be safe and remember to visit or call sometimes." the two conversed before hugging and kissing each other.

Grey ran to Prof. Oak's lab and when the building was in sight, he made a mad dash for it, too excited to slow down. The lab door opened and Grey came in to see some kids stewing about, some conversing about their new Pokémon and others excited to receive new Pokémon. Grey got in line with 3 kids, who were also talking.

"I want a Charmander! They turn into big, mighty dragons!" "Well I want Squirtle, they'll help me swim!" "I want Bulbasaur! Grass types will be effective for both the first and second gym."

Grey just kept quiet and paced back and forth, waiting for the professor to call them in. The waiting finally ended when Prof. Oak called them all in. The professor smiled when he saw Grey. When Grey was being held back, he learned about Pokémon from the professor himself!

"Hello children! You too, Grey! Today, your lives are at a turning point and your decision of your new pal will be vital! Pick wisely! You'll go in the same order as you are now, so come up John!" the professor encouraged as he revealed a table with 4 Poké Balls on it.

John picked Charmander and when he tossed the Poké Ball, he was greeted by a happy "Char!"

"We'll be the best of friends, I just know it!"

John went off to the side while Mary walked to the Poké Balls and chose Squirtle's.

"Squirtle! Squirt, squirt!"

*Hi! Who are you?*

"Aww, aren't you just the cutest? We'll be the best team in the region!"

Mary went beside John and started telling Squirtle about herself. Luke and Grey were the only ones left now. Luke went straight for the grass type's ball. He sent out Bulbasaur and picked them up.

"Hi Bulbasaur, I'm Luke and we're going to fight our way to the league! Are you with me?"

An assuring "Saur!" told Luke that Bulbasaur was in.

"Alright! I can't wait to start training!" and after he said that, he stood next to the others. Now, Grey was the only one left and he had only one choice, which he was fine with, as long as he got a Pokémon.

'Ok, alright. Oh man, this is it!' Grey thought as he approached the last Poké Ball. He picked it up and tossed it to the floor. The ball erupted with a beautiful, white light and the Pokémon, his Pokémon finally materialized.

"Pika!"
