Prologue

May 22, another peaceful day in a Masara Town, but today, today is a special day, today is Satoshi's eight birthday. 'Just three more years until I get to start my Pokémon journey!' was his first thought when he woke up that morning. He was excited to see the world, but he didn't like the fact that he had to wait three more years. In the middle of the party, a postman came by and delivered a package to his home.

"Satoshi! There's a package here for you!" His mom was yelling from the door. This attracted the attention of the other people at the party.

"Thanks mom, but do you know who this is from? There's no return address, and I highly doubt that this is from dad."

"Nope. I was hoping that you knew," she replied, tilting her head wondering what could be in the box, and who it could have come from.

Satoshi then went to get a pair of scissors to cut the relatively strong tape off. When he opened it, everyone around was looking at what could be inside. What he found, and what they saw, inside was a big old looking book and a letter. After taking the items out of the box, he opened up the letter, what was written was:

'Inside the book can only and will only be seen by your eyes alone until you turn ten.

The book will help you harness your inner power that will help you in your journey in the future.

So use this information wisely and you will become the best in the world'

- A friend

'I wonder who this friend is. The only person I consider as a friend is Gary, but I already got a present from him.'

Upon opening the book, words started to write themselves onto the book in a bright blue color, startling Satoshi:

'Greetings young Aura Guardian, I am Sir Aaron. If you are reading this book then you are one of the few that can harness their Aura and use it to its fullest potential. In order to keep the workings of an Aura Guardian's a secret, the words in this book are visible only to you. I have written this book so that in the event of my passing, the teachings of aura may continue.'

- Farewell and good luck

After reading this, he went up to his room and made room for it on his bookshelf. For the rest of the party, many of them were wondering who could have sent it, and the people who saw the book was wondering why the pages that they saw where completely empty.

The next day, Satoshi read the first few pages with the words appearing like they did the previous day. From there, Satoshi started his training in using Aura with the book's guidance the whole way. With the start of the training, his schedule for the day changed to fit it. He started by waking up at 6:30, so that he could start his hour of meditating, which he loathed greatly at the beginning. The book said that meditating is going to help with concentration and bring out his Aura in the future. After his mediation, he went to jog around the border of Masara Town to improve his stamina. On occasions, he would also go down the beach, which is about a 15 minute walk from his home. This lasted for about a month for him to get used to it before the actual training started. Something that he had to give up for him to stay in fit was that he couldn't eat like a Snorlax anymore. This action startled his mother greatly, thinking that he was sick, which Satoshi replied saying that he shouldn't be eating a lot on his journey when he is out on the road.

After getting used to this new schedule, Satoshi started his Aura training away from his home so that just in case his mom saw, she wouldn't worry about what he is doing. The book said that the first lesson is to project his Aura. Upon projection his Aura, what he saw disturbed him. What disturbed him when he first projected his aura was that his Aura is different than what the book said it should be. The book said that his aura should be a bright bluish color to teal, but when he projected his aura, there was red going along on the outside of the blue. After seeing this, he asked the book what is the problem, but the only thing the book said was that each species Aura is different. He waved it off as being a mistake or something, but it still was settling for him.

After a year of training, Satoshi was nine years old, and he started to think about his journey more, so he started going to Dr. Okido's lab to learn how to take care of Pokémon properly from the books at the lab, or having a hands on experience with the Pokémon on the ranch.

Half a year later, during dinner, Satoshi asked his mom something that startled her. He asked if she could teach him how to cook, and make Pokémon food. She was first mad thinking that he didn't like her cooking anymore, until he mentioned Pokémon food. After staring off into space for a few moments, which then she replied, "Yes!", a decision that she regretted for the next few weeks. It wasn't that Satoshi was bad in the kitchen; it's just that whenever he tried to make something, it became inedible. After many, many, many more lessons, his improvement went faster until he was almost as good as his mother, almost.

Now a ten year old Satoshi got a surprise three months before the start of his Pokémon journey, he had made a lot of progress in learning Aura. He already knew how to use some Pokémon moves with his Aura. When the book said that with practice he was able to actual use some moves like a Pokémon, this startled him and just made him want to work even harder on his Aura training. On this day, another package that is addressed to him arrived early in the morning during breakfast.

"Satoshi! There's a package for you!"

"I'm coming mom. Huh, another package?"

When he opened the package, Satoshi and his mother was surprised to see a Pokémon egg inside an incubator. The egg was blue in color with a black tip and having something that looked like black spikes in the middle of the egg. The package included another letter:

'You are nearly ready to follow your destiny. This Pokémon will help you in your future'

- A friend

From then on, Satoshi also studied on raising a Pokémon egg, and infant Pokémon, at Dr. Okido's lab. He took great care and gave lots of love towards the egg. Because Dr. Okido said that the first thing the Pokémon sees after it hatches would be regarded as its parent.

The last three months of his training consisted of continuing on learning to communicate with Pokémon through Aura, and creating bonds with your Pokémon to connect with them. After the time passed, Satoshi was excited for tomorrow. Because tomorrow was the day that he would start his journey.
