Chapter 1: A Journey Begins Part I: Tengan's Flight
The day begins fresh and crisp in the City of Saffron. The sun is shining and the people are around. Inside one of the houses, an eager, young, trainer is preparing for the journey of a lifetime; becoming a pokémon master. Tengan rushes to make sure that he has everything with him for his new adventure. As he finishes, he heads downstairs to say good-bye to his mother and head off with his older brother.
"Hey Mom, hey bro" I said.
"Hey Bro, are you all ready to go?" My older brother Hisan asked.
"Yea, I think I have everything I need." I replied.
"Well, I'll miss you around here." My mom said as tears welled in her eyes.
"We went over this before; I want to do this." I said. "Ever since I was younger, I've wanted to train pokémon and now I am finally able to."
"I know that." My mom said. "But that doesn't make it any easier. Nevertheless, I understand that you must do this. So, don't forget to call me when you get to Pallet Town."
"I will mom and I will miss you." I said as I hugged her.
"I'll miss you too." My mom said. "I love you."
"Love you too mom" I said as I broke away and started to go out the door.
"Hold on, wait." My mom said as she ran over to me.
"What?" I asked.
"You almost forgot this." She said as she handed me a pokéball.
"Wow, I can't believe I almost forgot this." I said. "Thanks."
"You don't want to go losing that." Hisan said. "That's your first Pokémon."
"Yea, that's right." I said.
"Well, we got to get going." Hisan said. "We don't want him to miss appointment with Professor Oak."
"Alright, be careful." She said.
"We will mom." They both said.
They both left and began walking to the outskirts of the city.
"Do you need to the Pokémon Center before we leave?" Hisan asked.
"No I had him checked out by Nurse Joy this morning." I replied.
"Well then, we should be going now." Hisan said as he grabbed a Pokéball from his belt. "Go, Pidgeot."
At that moment, a huge bird appeared in front of us. It had enormous wings and seemed to greatly respect my older brother.
"I think you should let your Pokémon out for the ride as well." Hisan said.
"Alright" I said as I reached for my pokéball. "Go Abra."
Soon a small, beige sleeping beast appeared.
"Are you sure you want to start out with him?" Hisan said as helped us on Pigeot's back. "I mean, I have plenty of other pokémon that you can use."
"Yea, he may look like a pipsqueak, but he packs some power; when he's awake." I replied.
"Alright, well hang on." Hisan said as he hopped on as well. "Alright Pigeot, fly us on over to Pallet town."
Right after he said that, the winged beast took off and began flying towards Pallet Town. I looked around at the disappearing city and new emerging forest and prairie scenery. The whole ride there, I saw various different types of Pokémon. Some of them were flying; others were grazing in the fields. My brother and I talked about his adventures in Kanto as I made an attempt to wake up Abra. After a while, I felt like it was an impossible task and gave up. Soon, he woke up and was hungry. I dug through my backpack and found some Pokémon food and fed him. Soon he was asleep again. We landed in Pallet about an hour and a half later.
"Well this is your stop Bro." Hisan said as he helped me and Abra down. "Maybe you should call him back now."
"Alright" I said as I grabbed my Pokéball. "Abra, return"
"Well, good luck bro and I hope to talk to you soon." Hisan said
"Where are you going?" I asked.
"I'm starting fresh in the Hoenn region." Hisan said. "Don't worry lil' bro, you'll be fine."
'I hope so.' I thought to myself.
He got back on Pigeot and went off in the distance. I walked around Pallet and searched for Professor Oak's Lab. I found a river edge and checked my map. It turned out that I passed it. I looked around until I saw something very strange glowing in the water. I decided that I wasn't yet prepared to investigate it, so I traveled back and found the lab. I walked in and found Professor Oak.
"Hey Professor Oak" I said. "I'm Tengan from Saffron City."
"Ahh yes, I remember seeing you at the league tournament when your brother Hisan was doing his matches." Professor Oak said. "As I recall, he did exceptionally well. I expect good things from you as well."
"Yea, my bro is a great trainer." I said. "In fact, he's starting anew in Hoenn."
"Well that's good." Professor Oak said. "Well, you'll need a training license, Pokédex, some Pokéballs and a new pokémon."
"Actually, I have my own starter pokémon if that is okay." I said.
"Really, let's see it." Professor Oak said.
"Alright" I said. "Come on out Abra."
'An Abra hmmm' Professor Oak thought. 'I should've expected that.'
"Well this Pokémon appears to be in tip-top shape and has a liking to you." Professor Oak said.
"Yea, me and Abra have been together for a little while now." I said.
"Well, I have three other people coming in today for pretty much the same thing." Professor Oak said. "Would you like to stick around until they come? That a way, you can see some other trainers and make some friends."
"Sure" I said.
With that I began to have an interesting discussion with Professor Oak about Psychic Pokémon and different types of Pokéballs and Berries. Soon another person came in and about two minutes later another came in.
