Hello! This is my Latest fic so I decided that I'm going to be doing a Naruto/Pokemon story. This takes place in the Kanto region (except Pallet Town is Konoha). Also there will be pokemon from different regions including Sinnoh and maybe Unova so don't be surprised if they end up in places where they aren't normally found. The starter pokemon for some characters won't be the usual types like Leaf, Fire or Water so don't go saying thats not the right kind of starter. One last thing some of the characters aren't villains in this fic and some characters are going to be traveling with people they usually don't interact with.

Summary: Once every 5 years comes a tournament so big you have to prove yourself worthy to enter. The only problem to register this tournament you need all 8 badges and six pokemon. Sakura Haruno just starting on her pokemon journey wants to enter to prove to everyone she will be the best pokemon trainer ever. Finding out about this journey makes her strive to gain all 8 gym badges just to enter and to catch 6 pokemon she will enjoy.

Centers on The Konoha 12 and Team Hebi but mostly Sakura.

Disclaimer: I do not know Pokemon or Naruto.

"And Nidorina leaps back to dodge that shadow ball! But wait! Dusknoir uses its hypnosis to stop Nidorina in its tracks!"cried the TV announcer as the pokemon began swaying and had begun to lose consciousness. Its trainer then brought out a pokeball and with a flash of light, he returned his pokemon back inside ball.

"Our trainer has chosen to recall his Nidorina but with one pokemon down what will he use next?"The trainer on the TV pocketed his pokeball and took out a new one. This time came out an Umbreon.

"What a surprise? Our trainer has called out his Umbreon! How will Dusknoir fare against his new opponent while it's at a disadvantage?"shouted the announcer as a young pink haired girl excitedly watched.

The Umbreon throws its iron tail down on the battlefield and forced the Dusknoir to jump out of the way. While the vulnerable Dusknoir was in midair, the Umbreon managed to use Dark Pulse at the stunned pokemon and knocked it back a few yards away.

"Hooray!" Shouted the cheerful girl as she pumped her fist. She then jumped onto her bed and grabbed her Jigglypuff alarm clock.

"I, Sakura Haruno will be the world's greatest pokemon trainer." shouted Sakura as she danced excitedly on her bed waiting for the next day to come.

"SAKURA HARUNO!"

"Oh No!" The girl panicked and slowly turned her head towards the door. There she saw her pink haired mother standing in the middle of her doorway.

"Young lady do you know what time it? It's nearly midnight and you're still up watching television!" her mother yelled. Sakuma sure was scary when she's in a bad mood. Sakura looked behind his mother and saw her mom's Mr. Mime peeking through with a nervous look on it's face.

"How do you expect to get your first pokemon if your not going to be there on time?" Sakuma yelled.

"Oh don't worry mom I'll turn off the TV soon I promise" Sakura said crossing her fingers behind her back.

"Oh Alright" Sakuma sighed knowing how stubborn Sakura could be when she wanted.

"But Sakura I want you in bed soon and if you're going watch TV at least watch this channel." Sakuma walked over and picked up the TV remote from the floor. She then changed it to a different channel. The channel on now showed the famous Professor Sarutobi giving one of his lectures about pokemon evolution.

"But mom! This channel is so boring. Can't I watch the battle," whined Sakura. She looked up to his mother with pleading eyes.

Sakuma shook her head.

"Nope, now go to bed soon." With that said, Sakuma left the room.

Meanwhile another excited youngster was still up in her room getting ready for tomorrow. Like Sakura, Yamanaka Ino was a young girl who also was beginning her journey as a trainer the next day. Ino was always the studious type and the preppy type at school and happened to be top in her class at Trainer's Academy and top in most popular female. Unfortunately she was constantly distracted by a certain young boy along with the majority of the female population at her school.

She laid out all of her items on the bad and carefully put each thing into her bag. Once she finished, Ino took one last look at the pink backpack on her bed and decided to do another check to make sure she had everything packed.

'Okay, extra change of clothes check. Pajamas check. Sleeping bag check. Toothbrush and toothpaste check. PokeGear check. Shampoo, conditioner and hairbrush check. Town Map check. Extra pokeballs check. Berry Pouch check. Potions check. Money check. Whew! I think that's it! Oh wait I forgot secret diary. Okay secret diary, where are you? Oh they you are! Check! Every girl ought to have her own secret diary. Okay now I think that's it. Check!'

After that, Ino placed her backpack at the door, ready to go for tomorrow morning. She stretched her arms and yawned. It was getting late for her. Then Ino walked up her giant mirror that hung on the wall and took a good look at herself.

She narrowed her baby blue eyes and tried to put a look that made her seem older and mature. Ino then played around with her long blond hair, which she grew out to gain a certain someone's attention, and tried to find the best hairstyle that would look good on her. She needed to look her best tomorrow in case she might see her crush. Ino squealed at the thought of seeing him before she leaves on her pokemon journey. She then tried pigtails but that didn't work either since Ino thought it made her looked like a little girl. Braids looked funny on her. Eventually, Ino decided to just leave her in a ponytail.

"Okay Ino. You're not just a little girl anymore, not an academy student anymore. You're a pokemon trainer now." Ino said proudly to herself while she faced her reflection.

"Ino dear, shouldn't you be in bed by now? You have to wake up early tomorrow morning." Ino's mother softly scolded from down the stairs.

"Oh yeah," Ino sheepishly replied. "I'll go to bed now. Good night mother."

The Next day...

"Holy Crap it's almost 11!" Sakura shouted immediately changing and running down the streets of Konoha to get to professor Sarutobi hoping there was still a pokemon left for her.

Little did she know the clock she looked at was a broken one.
