Chapter 1

"It's been two years since Kanto League Champion Sam has been seen. Sam was last seen training near Indigo Plateau, when a strange fog arose and he disappeared along with it. No-one knows what happened to the champ. In other news…" Sam clicked off his PokeGear radio.

"All this time and they are still clueless, good thing they aren't searching in Hoen I guess…" chuckled Sam as he entered the small town of Littleroot.

Two years had passed since Sam's disappearance, it's time to start again, he thought.

Sam was 18 with flicky brown hair and piercing blue eyes. He wore blue jeans and a long sleeve white top; almost indistinguishable as a masterful trainer. But first, off to Burke's. I'm going to need a Pokemon. He thought with a sly grin appearing over his face.

Sam walked through the empty streets of Littleroot town in the golden afternoon sun. Thank God there's no-one around, he thought, I don't need the attention.

"Ahh, there it is…" he said to himself, doing his trademark hair flick as he approached Professor Burke's lab.

The large white square building loomed over the street casting a magnificent shadow, displaying a huge glass dome on the roof. It seems Burke has done some renovations, Sam laughed as he stepping into the foyer.

"Interesting…" Sam said under his breath as he looked at the three magnificent sculptures of Pokemon around the foyer. There's Torchic… and Mudkip… and Treeko, he thought, easily recognises his region's most recognisable Pokemon.

"Can I help you sir?" a female voice rang out from behind him.

"I'm looking for Professor Burke," said Sam, not averting his gaze from the three statues.

"Oh, well, I'm sure I could help you sir, my name is Erin," said the girl who was smiling politely at Sam.

"Thanks Erin, but I need the Professor, it's pretty important…"

"Fair enough… well you'll probably find him on route 101 sir," said Erin, her smile disappearing as she turned and left Sam staring at the statues.

Sam turned to see the red head walking out of the room. Sorry about that Erin, thought Sam, I just can't risk revealing myself yet


Hi everyone, this is my first fanfic story =) I know it's a fairly basic thing, but I'm just trying to get my skills together because I have some ideas but no idea how to write them properly. So please review and let me know how to improve and what you thought =)

Also, the next chapter will probably be up pretty soon... I've already written the first four... stupid waiting period ;) haha

Accepting OC's, need their name, age, appearance, complete team (in the order of when they get them and if they evolve eventually or not), personality (may be subject to change depending on what the story needs).
