Prologue: It all begins anew

My name's Arthur, I'm from the Human world, where no Pokémon exist and only exist as videogames. Why do I say that? Well my game, "Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Forever's Travels", just booted me in a weird world. The weird thing is that I was just looking through Walmart and saw it. I asked around (as I never heard of the game, and I know all of the handheld Pokémon games) and NO ONE saw it! Hell I just put it in my pocket and nothing, no alarms went off, no one after me, it's like they WANTED me to have it. When I got home and put it in my New 3ds XL something took me into the game! I was changed into a Charmeleon, which is the one Pokémon I wanted to be.

"Welcome to the World of Pokémon!" A voice called out, I saw text in front of me as it read the words the voice said.

"Well, doesn't this seem unique?" I remarked, used to the words in nearly EVERY Pokémon game to date.

"Geez, how rude. Anyways, you are here for a reason, I called you here as our world is in danger and we need your help." The voice groaned and continued.

I was a bit shocked, but intrigued and the same time. "For what? What is it that you need my help of all things?" I questioned, curious but at the same time worried about the answer.

"Well, we Pokémon are being overpowered and it seems Humans are the only ones that stand a chance against their army." The voice answered, worry deeply rooted in the voice.

"Wait, how do you know that? Are you even sure that is true?" I asked, a bit scared as it sounded like they knew that as a fact, and what army was they talking about!?

"Well you aren't the only human who crossed over, the only one who stood a chance so far was a great Charizard Human, who was able to defend for many years. Sadly age got to him and he has but died from the injuries. Now we found a new Charmeleon, one that can be even stronger then him, possibly our only chance of winning this war. You. You, Arthur, are our last chance of winning this war. Please, help us defeat Darkrai, and have our peace back." The voice begged me, pleading me to help him.

"Well when you boost my ego like that, how can I say no? However if it's a war, I don't think I can do this by myself. I never been a Pokémon before and even then, no one can go against an entire army by themselves, not without getting seriously hurt or being buried and forgotten. It's just not possible." I replied, choosing my words carefully as I explained a serious point. With my lack of skill, how was I to do this by myself?

"Well, we kind of already got some teammates for you, meet your team Arthur!" The voice said as the text went away, revealing a large pool-like room with 4 other Human Pokémon, all looking around. The first thing I did was look down at the pool-like floor, looking like a clear marine blue. The second was look at the 4 H.P. (Human Pokémon(s)) around me. The one right to the left of me was an angry, anxious Pikachu, looking like he would just fight all 4 of us here and there just to calm himself. The one on my left was a calm, serious Riolu, looking with a keen eye just like me, he just rolled his eyes and went back to talking to the Eevee, thinking I wasn't worth his time. I got annoyed of him pretty quickly. The one right beside him was an eager, energetic Eevee, being the only one out of the 5 of us to go up to each other and say hi. The last one was the most odd, being a Grovyle that just looked away, eyeing the pockets of everyone. I checked mine, finding glasses (That I immediately put on and was happy that it was my prescription), a cell phone that was claw resistant (Yesssss, I can still play my games and talk to my girlfriend! (And manga-style tears fell when it didn't allow any outside communication and only gave the time of day)), and a few weird coins with the letter P on them, I figured they were Poke and just put them in a safe place.

After everyone was finished looking, the Eevee walked up to the Riolu and they started talking, seemly knowing each other. The Pikachu looked towards me but I walked to the Grovyle before the Pikachu could say anything.

"So, guess we're partners huh?" I halfheartedly joked, intentionally leaving the pocket with the Poke unprotected, wondering what he would do.

"Hn, what would you know about me?" The Grovyle coldly asked, as he took the bait. I grinned as I grabbed the arm and sent him to the ground. The others looking at us.

"Well for one, you try to steal things from others. For two, you are bad at reacting to a situation, and for three. You aren't very bright." I explained, stomping on the other hand as he tried to steal from the opposite hand.

"Hn. The name's Grov. You're not as bad as you seem." Grov smirked as he gave a (most-likely fake) name. It was better than nothing I guess, so I just accepted the name.

"Well, the name's Arthur, but just call me Zach." I replied, figuring to do the same thing, but better.

"Hn." Grov grunted as he walked away, a grin on my face. The Pikachu walked up to me as the Riolu and Eevee kept talking, obviously still listening in on the conversation. (Looking to the left every 5 seconds isn't hiding it well idiotas!)

"So, you're the leader huh?" The Pikachu asked, smirking.

"I guess, I hear we're supposed to save their world, how did you get here?" I asked, curious on if anyone else had the same experience as me.

"Well, I was just heading to my local market, I think it was Target, and saw the game "Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Forever's Travels" I figured it was a new PMD game, and tried to buy it, but they said "Why are you handing me nothing? What, do you have imaginative money!? Get out of here punk!" I was confused but I just took the game and went home, when I turned it on, I found myself here. By the way, the name's Rick, just call me Pika." Pika explained, an arrogant grin on his face. I figured it was time to talk to the annoying duo over to the left and walked over there.

"You weren't hiding that very well." I said, the two having slightly shocked faces, the Eevee's face said it all really and the Riolu hid it with slightly widening his eyes before they faced me.

"H-Hiding what?" The Eevee stuttered, totally giving herself away.

"So, it was that noticeable? Well, guess you'll be a good leader, but if that's the best you got, then you got a long way to go." The Riolu grinned, taunting me to react, but I just grinned and turned towards the Eevee, ignoring him.

"What's your name?" I asked politely, intentional leaving the question open.

"Kiki" "Vincent" The two said at the same time. Step 1 complete. I turned to the Riolu, Vincent.

"Now I asked Kiki nicely, that was rude to butt into our conversation." I mockingly said as his face blushed with a mixture of embarrassment and anger. Step 2 complete.

"Said the idiot…" Kiki mumbled just barely enough for me to hear her, but not enough for Vincent to hear her.

"I know right! He's such an idiot!" I purposely twisted her words, Vincent getting angry at her and Kiki trying to defend herself as I slowly walked away, Operation 'Annoy the annoying Riolu' complete.

The voice and text came back as we walked back to our original places, each marked by a light matching the H.P. (Red for me, Yellow for Pika, etc. etc.)

"Now that you all have met one-another, let's get down to business. You are going to the Pokémon world, where no humans exist. Only by calling you out from your world have we been able to face Darkrai in battle. Our world is in ruins as we try to finish him off with no end in sight." The voice explained to us.

"So it's a Strategy RPG?" I asked, thinking of it like a Fire emblem game.

"No, there is no turn based system but it is a RPG, its real time. Be careful, it's not a game anymore." The voice warned us, as we felt the room vanish the voice and text disappearing as we fell from the sky screaming.

A/N Hio, did I do good?

Edit, I added some parts to avoid confusion, not much but it is there, I love to read your reviews so keep it up
