A day in the pokemon world, a place where people and pokemon all around live in peace and adventure around the world. As for me, I've just woken up and got out of bed, ready to become a real pokemon trainer. I got my clothing on and woke up my best friend, Buizel. He wasn't so happy about getting up so early, but it was a big day for the both of us: the day I became a real pokemon trainer.

Before we get into any more detail, you need to know about the two of us. I do have a name, but everyone just refers to me as Zapp, so I go by that. I wear a short sleeved hoodie, blue jeans, red sneakers, and fingerless gloves (like the TF2 heavy would wear). I am 13 years old and as of today will become a pokemon trainer.

As for Buizel, he doesn't really have any accessories. Still, he is a strong pokemon and can get very competitive when it comes to battling. He has my best friend since the day we met (I can get into that detail later). He was also very excited to be exploring the world and battling many new and powerful pokemon. So back to the story:

I went downstairs with Buizel and saw my mom waiting for me downstairs. She had my bag ready to go, but not before saying goodbye.

"My little boy is growing up! I'm so proud! Stay safe, and watch out for wild pokemon!"

"Mom, i'll be fine," I told my mom, with a smirk on my face. "Besides I have Buizel with me." Buizel gave a pose of bravery as I looked at him.

"Oh! The Professor wants to see you today! you should go visit him before you leave town!" mom said, as I opened the door.

"Sure mom, i'll see you soon!" I then walked out the door with Buizel, and went to the lab. "I wonder wwhat the professor wants with me. Do you know Buizel?" I asked, but Buizel shook his head. When we reached the lab, Professor Oak was standing there waiting for me.

"Hello there! I'm glad you could make it, Zapp! I have a special gift for you!" Oak said. I was surprised when he brought in a pokemon wearing a scarf around it's neck.

"This is Snivy, the grass snake pokemon. I received this one as a starter, along with two others," Oak explained. "I was thinking you would take it as your pokemon, since you are becoming a trainer."

"Sure, i'll take him in and give him proper trainer care." I said, with Buizel and Snivy shaking hands.

"HA! You're still not going to beat me! I'm he better trainer!" said a kid next to the pokeballs.

"Ah, yes! This is my grandson, umm..."

"MY NAME IS GAR-"

"AHEM... Waffles, he said Waffles." I said, interrupting his chance to NOT have a stupid name.

"Ah, yes, that's his name! thank you Zapp!" Oak said, totally falling for it.

"Alright smarty, you're going down!" Waffles sent out a Tepig and Scynther, possibly his starters, and challenged me to a battle. I agreed, and went into battle. Thanks to being told in a story, we can skip the extremely emberassing defeat Waffles got.

"Also, there's a part two to your gifts," Oak said as he pulled out some tiny metal devices from the box next to him. "These are special devices that allow humans to communicate to the pokemon who are also wearing the device. It's a prototype though, so there are only a few available." He put one device on each pokemon that me and Waffles had and then put one on each of us. Then he activated them.

"Testing, testing. Does it work?" I looked down at Snivy, and turns out it worked.

"Well, if it does work i'll give the professor some credit. I have a LOT he needs to know." I heard from Buizel, a voice I AM familiar with.

"Alright, thanks Professor!" I said in excitement. "Time to start my adventure as a pokemon trainer!"

We stepped outside, and took our first steps into the new journey of pokemon. Little did I know, things would never be the same again.
