I DO NOT OWN POKEMON! Its my dream!

"Since the Beginning, Humans and Pokemon alike have searched for it's meaning. Many strange and wonderous legends have emerged from the pursuit of it's mysteries. But none as stranger than this tale of the most powerful Pokemon of all. Welcome to the Wonderful world of Pokemon!"

"FARFETCHD! FAR! BAQUACK! FAR!"... "CRUNCH" "ZPPT"

Ugh. 5 more minutes.

"Dolan, your going to be late!"

Huh? Late for what? I'm done with school. Finally 15, I can go my own way now into the world. Supposed to meet this old grumpy professor and get my poke... IT'S THAT DAY! This is the day I get my first Pokemon! Jumping out of bed, I quickly throw on my white T-Shirt and my faded jeans, and grab my leather jacket and hat from my desk and run downstairs. There my mom is waiting with breakfast, obviously amused at my race and panic.

"Don't worry. I set your alarm clock 15 minutes early so you wouldn't be late. Now don't talk, for there's things I must tell you before you go on your journey."

"YAOWWW!"

"Watch out, the foods hot."

Thanks for telling me that NOW.

"Now, you're fifteen and I have no right to keep you here. That's when every young teen goes to find their place in the world. But you are part of our family, and must present yourself respectably. Be polite to strangers, and treat your Pokemon well. My Vaporeon has been with me for years and is almost a daughter to me. If you treat them and raise them right, they will become your life long friends too. Hmm... what else? AH! Yes, are you in need of any money? You will need it to wager battles with other trainers."

"I..."

"But of course you will need money, Haha, if you were anything like your father your always in need of money. Losing battles left and right. I'll put it in your pack. Now don't follow after him, ok? Be a good trainer. Don't give up. And don't come home very often, you must forge your own path."

"But... but..."

"No buts. Now you better go before I break into tears. And you don't want to see that. Your pack, and your keys are on the wall, and I stuck a nice handbook filled with lots of interesting things in it. The Professor's lab is located in the middle of the forest, just follow Indigo Road and you'll find his laboratory. And no, he won't bite."

I grab my pack from the wall, throw it onto my back, cripple a little under it's weight, and then grab the keys. I head outside and the sun is shining on my back. A perfect day to begin my adventure. Carefully, I store my hat in my pack and grab my keys. I open the garage and pull out my motorcycle. Used to just sit in there, collecting rust and dust but with some elbow grease on my part it took on a whole nother life. I grab the helmet from the wall. A nice helmet, with shaded lens and a tribal design on the back. Looked like some magical creature. I put it on and adjust the straps. Then I put the key in and start the engine. It roars to life, filling the garage with the sound. I roll it out and kick the stand. My mom is standing outside on the porch, watching me. I realise that i truly will be leaving this place. I quickly run up and hug her.

"Thanks, Mom. I'll be sure to do all those things. And don't worry, ok? I'll be fine."

She smiled weakly and said,

"I'm sure you will."

I release her slowly and walk away and climb on to the humming bike, I clutch the throttle, and quickly I'm speeding away from the house. I look into my mirror, and see my mom waving to me as I disapear down the road, I put a hand up, until I see the house no more.

Quickly, I begin to notice the road changing as I turn onto Indigo Road. All dirt. Just my luck. I slow down and ride through the forest, noticing the Bellsprout and Oddish as I pass by and the Pidgey and Metapod in the trees. Finally I come to a white building, kind of worn down. I slowly roll up and park next to a Jeep with jungle camo on it. I turn the engine off and hop off. I won't need my keys. Putting the helmet on the seat, I grab my hat and put it on. Then I stride over to the door and ring the door bell.

"Now don't you worry, I'll be with you in a second!"

I wait nervously outside.

CREEEEEEK.

A man with bleach blonde hair steps out. In his 40's, he was muscular man with a big labcoat on.

"Yes Hello? Who are you?"

"I'm Dolan, sir. I'm looking for Professor Oak. I've come for my Pokemon."

"Ahh! Yes! I was wondering when you would arrive. Right this way, now tell me, how have you been, Dolan? Unfortunately Professor Oak is out vacationing on the Orange Islands. I'm his aid, Professor Higan. I work with him. So you've come for your first Pokemon. Well, you came to the right place. I have three with just the right temperament that would be perfect. Right this way."

I follow him until I reached a bubble that looked like a jungle on the inside. He enters. Slowly, I open the door and then go in. Wow! The forest which I saw before is now teeming with Pokemon.

"Prof... Professor, what are all these Pokemon doing here?"

"Oh, these are all the Pokemon Professor Oak have caught over the years. I also study them to further my research."

Wow. There were many Pokemon here. Mankey, Caterpie, Spearow, there were so many that even I didn't even know all of them. I had done alot of research too. The Professor led me to a far corner of the Jungle where three Pokemon were playing together.

"Professor, is that a Squirtle, Charmander, and Bulbasaur?"

"Why, Yes! You will get to choose one of these as your partner."

"Wa... WHAT? But you hardly ever find these in the wild!"

"Yes, I know. This is the last of them that I have bred from the Professors precious Pokemon. You are a lucky man. Now, go ahead and choose one. You may go interact with them if you want."

Not believing it for a second, I go over to where the Pokemon are playing.

"Hey, little guys. Wanna play?"

As I approach, they scurry into the bushes. Why are they afraid of me? Maybe they don't like me. Great. Now how am I supposed to get a Pokemon. I sit on the ground and stare at the forest for a while until I feel something tap my boot. The Bulbasaur had come out of the bushes and was hesitantly feeling me with her vines. I pretend not to notice so as not to disturb her. Then she starts poking me like a doctor does, hitting my knee and then my arm. Then, when I guess she feels satisfied, she comes over and lays down in my lap and falls asleep. I am astonished. Who knew this shy Pokemon would come up to someone like me? As I sit there, stuck I might add, petting her, the Professor slowly comes over.

"Congratulations are in order, I think. Not many trainers get a Pokemon to trust them so on their first day. Hmm, well anyway, lets see if we can move her without disturbing her sleep."

Slowly I get up, removing Bulbasaur from my lap, careful not to disturb her, and follow the professor out of the Lab.

"Now that you have your Pokemon, I have other things to give you on your journey. You have no problem with taking the Bulbasaur, do you?"

"No sir, I like her."

"Good, now lets get those items."

I follow him into another big room stocked with many supplies. Potions, Pokeballs, and some other items that even I didn't know. I go up to one of them. It says "Protein" on the tag in front.

"Ah, I see you've found the Nutrients. These nutrients help increase your Pokemon's power. However, they are very expensive, and hard to find. I'll give you that one. Now lets go get Bulbasaur's poke-ball."

"Actually sir, I was thinking maybe I could get a Calcium instead? Bulbasaur is more of a special attacker than a physical one."

"Well, I've seen who's done their research. Yes of course. Go ahead."

Quickly I put the protein back and grab a calcium from the wall. I throw it into the small pocket in my pack where I decide to keep the small items I find on my journey. Then I follow the professor out.

Professor Higan led me out for a small room next to the glass bubble. Inside the room on a pokeball rack were three pokeballs, different from regular pokeballs because there were three different colors. A red and white one, like the normal pokeballs except for a darker shade, a blue and white pokeball, and a green and white pokeball.

"The green and white one is Bulbasaur's. You can go and grab it."

I slowly walk over to the rack and grab the pokeball. It was smaller than i had originally thought. Fit snugly in my hand, like a baseball.

"Now lets, go grab your Bulbasaur."

We head back into the glass bubble and bulbasaur lopes over to me. I pick her up and we walk out of the laboratory. As we walk out I notice the bulb on her back and the little vine buds poking out.

"I think I'm gonna name you Flora. My mom would love you, Flora."

She seems to enjoy the name 'cause she perks up a bit when i say it.

"What a nice name for a female Bulbasaur."

She gets really excited at something, so I let her go and explore the outside of the lab.

"Now, where are you headed Dolan? The nearest town is Viridian City."

"I'm thinking of going into the forest and catching some pokemon. Then I can get there pretty fast with my motor-"

VROOOOM! VROOMOOMOMOM!

CRASH!

"Flora!"

Flora had decided to look at my bike, and managed to turn it on. My bike was now halfway into a tree. That was my dad's precious bike too! I turn to yell at Flora, but she's inside the bush next to the lab, looking scared out of her wits. It must have scared her when it turned on. I go over and pet her gently until she relaxes.

"Well, it looks like you won't be needing your bike."

"Ya, I guess your right. Would you mind sending the parts back to my mom? It's my Dad's old bike, and precious to me."

"Yes, of course. Now it's about mid morning. You better be on your way if you want to make it to Viridian City by nightfall."

"Ok. Bye Professor Higan! I'll call you when I get to Viridian City."

I start to walk into the forest with my Flora in my hands and as I prepare to delve into the forest, I hear a faint "Good Luck!"

I look back and wave one last time, and then stride into the forest, where adventure was waiting for me.

Ok Everyone Please Review! Thank You!
