The Sinnoh Region, home to many fascinating creatures called Pokémon, and Professor Rowan, the professor of Pokémon Evolution.
Today was the tenth birthday of three new trainers: Damien Dahrk, Melanie Martinez, and Karma Akabane.
((If you cant guess where I got the names then I don't know what to tell you))
So like all the other tenth birthdays the three new trainers must choose their starter Pokémon which are: Chimchar The fire type, Turtwig the grass type, and Piplup the water type.
This batch of young trainers are ready to embark on their journey, and take the world of Pokémon by storm.
Twin Leaf Town
Karma woke up with a start, his eyes that were so white he looked blind, stared at the ceiling above him. He had the strangest dream that confused him so much. All he could recall was a small voice calling his name. He didn't know why but it sounded very familiar.
He sighed as he swung his legs off the side of the bed and out of the covers. He took a glance at his bedside clock and groaned seeing as it was only 4:53 in the morning. He still had about 3 hours until he had to be getting ready and heading to Sandgem town.
He got up and walked over to his closet. He decided he might as well go walk for a little bit. He quickly threw on just a plain white T-shirt and some red sweatpants, and then slipped on his red running shoes.
He tiptoed down the stairs to the living room, where Damien and Melanie were staying so all three of them could go to the professors together this morning. He smiled at his two closest friends and slipped outside into the cool morning air.
He stretched a little then took at a slow jog towards Lake Verity, it was a tranquil spot for him to forget about the dream. Today however it wasn't so tranquil, as he entered Karma heard the sounds of moves and gruff human voices calling them out, alongside pained Pokémon cries.
Karma growled and ran faster to the scene and yelled as he saw a group of Pokémon hunters surrounding an Absol and a Skorupi, and both looked badly injured.
Karma screamed in rage at the hunters, then ran forward and smashed his fist into the side of ones chest, then knelt next to absol, who looked at him.
Karma leaned down and placed his forehead on Absols and spoke softly, "Absol, please lend me your power, show me your best move, initiate Connection."
Karmas mind whirled with the absols moveset and he chose one with his mind, he then stood with his eyes blazing black fire, the hunters stepped back then chuckled cockily and tried to step forward until a pulse of Darkness was shot at them by Karma.
"You come near these two again and I'll do worse then just threaten, I'll kill you!" He growled darkly, "My name is Karma Akabane, the Protector of Pokemon, now leave!"
The hunters scrambled to get away from the kid who was growling darkly, as he watched the hunters leave he turned back to the two Pokémon and started to search for any more injuries. As he was he accidentally brushed the Skorupis leg and made it cry out in pain which made Absol growl threateningly at Karma, until it saw the somber look on the boys face.
"This isn't good, if I don't get you to the Pokémon center fast then you won't be able to walk on this leg." He then looked around and spotted a buneary and called it over.
"Hello young buneary," he placed his forehead on the buneary sand opened the connection again, he searched the bunearys moves and smiled, he tapped with his mind and moved away from the Pokémon, "Thank you young one."
"Bun Bun!" The rabbit Pokémon chirped then hopped away.
Karma carefully picked up Skorupi and looked at Absol, "Can you run pretty fast?"
"Absol!" It confirmed.
"Good then follow me!" With that Karma activated the agility move he chose from the buneary and rushed off to Sandgem town, with Absol close behind.
Sandgem Town Pokemon Center
The doors of the Pokémon center opened and Karma rushes through and towards the desk, "Oh hello Karma...oh dear what happened to this Skorupi?!"
"Pokémon hunters." He growled and nurse joy nodded.
Nurse Joy gently laid Skorupi down on bed and then looked at Absol, "Do you need healing as well Absol?"
Absol shook its head, and Karma smiled, "Don't worry," he walked over to chansey who chirped happily as he laid his forehead on hers, "chansey is letting me borrow heal pulse so I'll take care of Absol."
Nurse Joy smiled, "Ok Karma, and remember if you ever decide to not be a trainer you'd make a great ranger or doctor with that ability of yours."
Karma smiled, "I know," he looked down at Absol, "But it comes in handy when needing to train a certain move to my Pokémon, correction, my family."
Joy and Chansey smiled at Karma then took Skorupi back to back of the building to start treatment.
Karma sighed and knelt next to Absol, a slowly glowing pulse of light emanated from Karmas hands, "I really hope Skorupi will be ok, and don't worry as soon as you two are healed I'll take you straight back to Lake Verity."
Absol looked at the boy in front of him, he then nuzzled his hand, "Absol."
Karma smiled, "Thanks Absol," his hand continued to glow as some bruises disappeared from Absols body, "in just a bit you'll be good as new."
"Absol Absol?" He asked.
Karma chuckled, a slight glint lit up his white eyes, "I guess your wondering about my ability huh?"
Absol nodded, "Ab."
Karma smiled and sat on a bench nearby while Absol sat and looked at the boy.
"It began when I was 3 years old, right on my birthday." He said as he told Absol.
Flashback
A 3 year old Karma walked through the woods of Lake Verity, he had gotten lost while on a birthday picnic with his mom and his friends.
He started to sniffle, he wanted to cry so much he didn't like how scary the forest was and he hated how he got lost so easily.
As he wandered he spotted a bright light flash from a little ways away and he decided to head towards it, when he came close to where the light came from he gasped, he saw all the rare Pokémon only told in the legends of his storybook right in front.
He giggled happily and ran out to see them closer, but as the legendaries spotted the young boy they stopped conversing in their language and looked at the young boy.
Soon though a majestic deer like Pokémon with a sun like emblem wrapped around its body trotted over to the child.
"Young One, What is your name?" Asked the deer in the boys mind.
"My name is K-Karma! Karma Akabane!" He exclaimed happily, though still struggling with his name slightly.
The deer smiled, "Young Karma, you are the first human to ever see all of us Legendary Pokémon in one place, you must be very special."
Karma didn't quite know what Legendary meant, but he understood Special and smiled widely.
The deer chuckled, "I am known as Arceus,the creator of the world, please come here child."
Arceus beckoned the young boy forward and leaned his head down to look at the young boy.
Karma giggled and without warning hugged Arceus's head, their foreheads touching a brief second before Karma let go, his eyes glowing a soft pink, visible a little in his white eyes.
"This is a surprise, you are very special indeed, you seem to have gained my move Teleport, please use this move to return to your family, and return to this spot when you become a trainer." Arceus said as they all disappeared.
Karma cocked his head and felt the power hide away in his mind as he walked away, the talk burning itself into his memory.
Flashback end
"Still to this day I haven't used the teleport move I got from Arceus, because I learned that as soon as I get a move and use it then I can't use it again unless I borrow it again." Karma told Absol, who was still stuck on the fact that this human had met Arceus.
As they sat in silence the emergency room light went off and a ding was heard as Chansey and nurse Joy came out with Skorupi on a gurney.
Karma and Absol quickly stood and walked over to them, "Thank you so much nurse Joy!"
Nurse Joy smiled, "Your welcome Karma, now she can't walk well as it was Badly sprained so Absol I need you to watch her for me ok?"
Absol nodded, "Absol!"
Karma smiled and leaned his forehead against Skorupis and initiated the connection, he chose a move he would keep for a special occasion and stepped back, "Skorupi, just so you know I'm taking you and Absol back to Lake Verity."
Absol and Skorupi looked at each other and nodded, "Absol! Skorupi!" They said simultaneously surprising the two humans.
Karma then chuckled, "I get it, you don't want me to do you?" They both shook their heads, "Ok then, well after I go to the lab and get another partner I'll catch y'all so we can be a real family."
Absol nuzzled his future trainer while Skorupi cheered, Nurse Joy smiled and reached behind the counter and returned with two premier balls, she then handed these to Karma, "Use these to catch them please, I've had these for so long they will start collecting dust soon."
Karma smiled as he took the two premier balls, "Thank you very much nurse Joy." He said with a grateful smile.
He then turned towards the two Pokémon, "Alright let's get going," he looked at his watch, "we've got to meet my friends and the professor, it's Time for you two to meet Ace."
He picked up Skorupi carefully after shrinking the premier balls and looked at Absol, "Alright let's go."
"Absol!" With that the trio walked out of the Pokémon Center and towards the lab.
