A/N Hey guys, AgentLucario here. After reading lots of pokémon fanfiction on this site, an idea popped into my head and I decided to roll with it. So here you go! R&R please, any constructive criticism would help. Thanks!
Edit: It's been a year since I've started this, and realized a few holes in my plot. So... there are a whole bunch of changes being made after chapter 33, which I will list before chapter 34 (don't want to spoil anything xD). I will eventually rewrite the first 33 chapters, but want to finish the whole story first. So sorry for the poor writing/realism of the first half-ish of this story, but the main ideas will remain intact. Enjoy!
Kat's POV
I was seemingly floating in nothingness when I heard two pokémon speaking in English. Some distance away I could make out a small pink cat talking to a giant centaur-like pokémon with a golden ring on his back.
"Is she ready?" the pink cat (who by the way, is adorable) asked.
"She'll have to be," the big centaur replied in a solemn voice. He then turned directly to me and stared at me so intensely it was as if he could look into my soul.
"WAKE UP!"
I woke up with a start. It was all a dream. What were those pokémon? Oh well, it was probably nothing, I thought. It took me a few moments when I realized it was my sixteenth birthday! Today was the day I began my pokémon journey! I rushed downstairs to find my parents waiting for me.
"Happy Birthday!" they both cheered. My father then told me, "I found a little eevee who was just itching to go on an adventure."
As if on cue, the little eevee came over and looked up at me. As I picked her up I could see it in her eyes that she was just as excited to go on an adventure as I was. My father went on, "We also packed a bag with a pokédex, some pokéballs, and some survival equipment like a sleeping bag and food."
I had to ask my parents about my dream before I left. "Hey, Mom or Dad, do either of you know of a pokémon that looks like a cute pink cat or a big centaur with a golden ring on its back?"
"... I don't know, honey. It was probably just your imagination," my mother replied.
My dad, however, had a better explanation. "Maybe it was a psychic pokémon talking to you in your dreams? I think some of them can do that…"
"Don't worry about it, I'm sure it's nothing," I assured them. I should probably go to a library at some point to do some research. My thoughts on the two mysterious pokémon were interrupted by Eevee who started poking me and pointing to the door. I guess she really wants to go on an adventure.
After a hasty breakfast and a farewell to my parents, Eevee and I began to head out from my home in Viridian City to Pewter City. She is so full of energy, jumping out of my arms and walking alongside me with a spring in her step. I figured that I should probably get to know Eevee better before we head out on our journey. I scanned her with the pokédex and learned that she already knows Quick Attack, Tackle, and Sand Attack. I then saw that there were a couple of wild caterpie that we could use to train.
"You up for some training girl?" I asked her.
"Vee Eevee!" she yapped excitedly. I assume that's a yes. Man, I really wish I could understand my pokémon.
"Alright, use Tackle!" Eevee complied, surprising the young caterpie and slamming into it. It wasn't giving up yet however, and fired back a String Shot.
"Use Quick Attack to dodge!" Suddenly getting faster, Eevee somewhat dodged the String Shot and the Quick Attack was enough to knock the poor caterpie out.
"Great job! That was awesome," I congratulated her. However, she was trying to get some of the String Shot out of her fur and failing miserably. I picked her up and helped get the sticky webs out of her fur. She suddenly became a furball of energy running and jumping around like a newborn kit, encouraging me to continue on. I laughed at her excitement and followed her as we entered Viridian Forest.
A/N Thanks for reading this! I know it's slow (and short) at first but please bear with me, the action really picks up in the next chapter. Thanks!
