So here's a new fanfiction series that I've been thinking about doing for approximately… 1 week. Okay my idea isn't really that well thought out but I'm hoping that this will rekindle the spirit of writing fanfiction by giving myself a bit of a challenge (I've been re-writing/fixing some of my older fanfictions that DESPERATELY need to be checked for grammar and pointlessness as well as some… other reasons).

Basically every Friday (unless something urgent comes up) I will post a new chapter which will be around 500 to 700 words at the most (aside from the author's notes that I leave) for this fanfiction until this arc is complete (yes there will be more arcs after the Sevii Islands). This story will mostly follow a new OC named 'Kole' and his partner pokemon (whom I'm sure you can all guess what it will be) on his journey through the Sevii Islands (which for the sake of this fanfiction may have a few more pokemon running around on them then the FireRed/LeafGreen games allowed) battling a series of fictional Frontier Brains and many other adventures along the way.

Four Island

A small group of children no older then ten, stood outside the entrance to the Ice Cave all wrapped up in winter clothing despite the fact that it was spring. The children totaled in five and all of them were excited to finally be able to get their first pokemon with help from none other than Lorelei of the Kanto Region's Elite Four.

"All right everyone; do you each have a pokeball?" Lorelei asked her small companions to whom they all nodded, "Okay, make sure you stay near me at all times while we search for your future partners."

"This is gonna be great!" shouted a girl with short black hair (that was currently covered in glitter) named Carol as she giggled with excitement

"Shh! Do you want to scare away all the good pokemon?" scolded a girl with long blond hair in a ponytail

"Hey, she's just excited, you know? You don't have to be snobby about it Samantha," said a tall boy with messy chestnut-brown hair named Dan

"If all the good pokemon are so easily scared then they probably wouldn't be very heroic anyway," said Carol's twin brother, Baryl

"Huh… that's a good point," said the final child a boy named Kole who was looking around the cave wanting to find his partner pokemon

Samantha shook her head and rolled her eyes, "Boys…"

The small group journeyed through the cave until the heard a scratching sound coming from their right. Lorelei held up a pokeball and sent out her only non-Ice-type pokemon, Slowbro and shined her flashlight towards the sound and saw… a Sneasel!

"Oh! I want to catch that one!" said Baryl as he threw his pokeball at the Sharp Claw Pokemon. The ball made contact with the dark/ice type and swerved back and forth until it finally clicked. "Sweet! I got my partner!"

"Huh? Baryl, why would you catch a Sneasel?" asked Dan knowing full well that most Sneasel were the furthest thing from heroic (according to what he read)

"I think Sneasel would make a great hero don't you think so Ms. Lorelei?" said the young hero fanatic to which Lorelei giggled to herself

"Well, Sneasel are very clever and they tend to work in groups so I think you might make a fine little hero out of him. Speaking of which, are you going to give Sneasel a nickname?"

"Huh? Oh right, I can do that. Hmmm… how about Scratcher?"

"Why don't you ask your new partner first?" Lorelei suggested and Baryl sent out his new companion who looked up at his new trainer and nodded at the suggestion of a nickname.

After Baryl returned Scratcher to his ball Lorelei turned back to the small group "All right now let's make sure we all… where's Carol?"

And so it begins... sort of. I suppose I didn't introduce Kole that well since he hardly did anything in this chapter but trust me you'll be getting more of him later on. I hope you'll all enjoy next week's chapter (I'm writing them ahead of time so I can assure you it's done) where more of the children get their starter pokemon. Also as a final note the children are ten when they get their first pokemon but they'll leave home around the age of 12 (cause sending 10 year olds out into the world is just ludicrous next you'll be telling me that mice can shoot electricity… oh wait).

Remember to leave a comment they're always a joy for me to get.
