Hey guys! After reading some crossovers between Pokémon and our reality, I decided to start my own crossover. I thought it would be better since I could see there were few stories like that.

Disclaimer: I do not own Pokémon! Except for my OCs, of course...

August 1st, 2012

Country: Canada

New Bark Town, 300 kilometers northwest of Toronto and 330 kilometers southwest of Algonquin Park City

It was about 5 o'clock in the morning. Wilson woke up as soon as the first solar rays met his room. He grunted when he stood up. It was another routine day of boringness.

Quick Main Character Introduction:

With 19 years old, Wilson is already a college student. He is about 1.93 meters and with thin body. His hair is short dark brown and with eyes of same color. Despite of his age, Wilson wasn't a college student yet and had been studying on his own to the limit so he could apply to the University of Toronto.

Also, Wilson hadn't many friends. He grew up like that. As a result, he wasn't much of talker, even among his family.

Chapter 1: Unbelievable

Back in his game room, Wilson watched the sun rise through the window, thinking of himself. He liked to think. Whenever he got a free moment, he always stopped what he is doing to thinking about his life and his future.

I need to do something different today. I can't stand all this studying every day.

He looked for his cell phone and watched the time. 5:10 am yet. He needed to take his brother and cousins to the school with his car. He gulped when he thought about that. He had just got his drive license this week and he was already helping his father on small errands. Whenever he drives, he gets nervous when he fears the worst, especially when his brother and two cousins were around.

They were very different from him. While Wilson preferred to be calm and quiet, they were always cool and loved to mess with people.

Stupid kids. He thought as he pictured their uprisings inside his car. But, Wilson liked their presence. They were part of his family after all.

He walked out of his game room and went to his old room to get his clothes. The main reason why he wasn't sleeping in his room was because his mother had a surgery and had to recover. She has chosen his room because it was windy, so she could sleep better.

He slowly opened the door, but it made enough noise to wake up the dog his mother bought 6 years ago. It was lying by my mother side where it always liked to be. It grunted when it noticed his presence.

Stupid dog. This is my room after all. He didn't make eye contact with it since it would only worsen things and he didn't want to wake up his mother. He opened his locker and picked up his usual clothes: a Mass Effect N7 t-shirt bought directly from the Bioware Store at the Internet, jeans, his underwear and a pair of blue and white colored sneakers. He quickly exited his room and headed towards the bathroom.

Wilson was totally dressed, but he was forgetting something. When he realized he reentered his old room and looked for his goal. The target was located at the other side of his old bed, on a small table. It was a brown hat that his mother bought for him 7 months ago when he went to Toronto with her for the first time. But, it was for no common trip. He had a goal there. He went there to apply for the university he had dreamed for so long. The course was Mechatronic Engineering, the one he always dreamed to apply.

As he was thinking on that, he became sad at the time. When he received the results a few weeks ago, it wasn't what he expected. He had failed the exam and until today, he hadn't completely overcome his grief.

So, he headed back to his game room and picked up his Nintendo DS. There was only one game that could make him cheer up. Since he was a kid, he was fascinated with the Pokémon anime that was displayed at the Fox Kids TV channel. Even now as a young adult, he always found comfort playing those games.

He selected Pokémon Soul Silver in his game list and booted it. Although he had finished the game already, he left his save just before he had to battle the ultimate Trainer, Red. Wilson's favorite Pokémon was Latias who he had replaced his starter by her when he began the game for the first time, by using an Action Replay Code. Actually, he does that to every Pokémon game that has the Third Generation included.

When the game started, the screen showed the main character at the summit of Mt. Silver, where Red was located. Wilson pressed forward and so did the character. Few seconds later, there he was. Red, overlooking the landscape beyond him. Souza noticed his heart beat up. An exciting challenge was coming. He pressed forward and talked to Red. The latter turned and didn't respond.

"Battle Time!" Wilson mumbled chuckling.

#30 minutes later#

Wilson finally managed to defeat Red once again and the victory cheered him up a little. Still in his game room, he looked through the window the world outside. He was trying to picture the real world if Pokémon really existed. But, he quickly reminded himself that it was all a fiction created by Satoshi. At least, that didn't stop him from dreaming about Pokémon becoming real one day.

He exited the game room again and headed towards the kitchen. His father was already there, waiting the breakfast.

"Good morning, Will." His father greeted when he noticed his older son. Will was his short version name. Everyone close to him called him like that. Actually, he doesn't quite mind it.

"Morning…" Wilson mumbled quietly.

"You're already starting your day like this?" His father asked, clearly noticing his bad mood.

"I'm just tired of this studying routine. I want to do something different sometimes." Wilson sighed. But what could he do? Despite him being a gamer, Wilson was tired of the games that he had finished on his Xbox 360 and Nintendo DS. There were no games that could get his interest so far. And he hated online games because they were easy to get addicted.

"Why don't you go to the hill near here? You always went there when you needed to relax. Moreover, you can go there after you take the boys to school."

"Hmm... Good idea. It has been some time since I last went there." The hill they were talking was the borderline between the town itself and the nearby forest. The mayor made it as a park area that could overlook the entire town. It was Wilson's sacred ground and he loved the tranquility he felt there. There he could be away from everything, except his thoughts.

"Your brother is taking shower already. I called to your aunt and she's getting your cousins ready too." His father spoke while eating his bread.

Good thing everyone live in the same building. Gas is getting expensive these days. Wilson thought. Their school was 20 kilometers away from the building. It usually took him 10 minutes to take them there due to little traffic at early morning.

"Eat. I made sandwich for you." His father pointed to the dish in front of him.

"Thanks." Wilson said as he sat and he began to eat. As soon as he began, his brother came in.

"Morning." He greeted. His name was Charles. 16 years old and basically the opposite of Wilson. More muscular due to his love for soccer, but his grades weren't that high as Wilson's were when he was still in high school. Charles had a short dark brown hair like his older brother, but his style was different from Wilson's. While Wilson liked his casual classy style, Charles liked his spiked hair.

"Morning." Both Wilson and their father greeted. When Charles sat, he noticed his older brother's bad mood.

"What's it, Wilson? Still worried that you didn't get a girlfriend yet?" He laughed. Charles always used those jokes to get him mad. It was true anyway. In his whole history, Wilson never had a girlfriend to begin with. Most of the girls he met in his past life thought he was strange and avoided talking with him. A few got the courage to talk to him, but those conversations were brief and Wilson liked that way. He hated when they started talking about things he didn't care.

"Nope, just bored to hell." Wilson replied, ignoring his brother's joke.

"Not many games left to play, huh?"

"Yup."

"I suggested him to go to his usual place at the hill." Their father intervened.

"Nice idea, dad. You should relax sometimes. Study in excess isn't healthy for your brain, you know."

"I know. It's just… I want to make myself certain that I'll pass this time."

His father put his hand on Wilson's shoulder. "You'll do it. Everyone here have confidence on you."

"Thanks."

#An hour later#

Wilson had arrived at the park at the hill's summit. He parked his car at the parking lot next to the park. He walked to the entrance and look at his cell phone. 7:10 am. There weren't many people around at this time, so he wouldn't be disturbed. He walked to the very edge of the park, the part where he could see the entire town.

He sat on the grassy ground and let the wind caress his face.

I forgot how this place was so relaxing. When I was young, my father always took me here at night to watch the stars. He quickly remembered his gameplay of Pokémon Soul Silver. I wish that my life was like of those Pokémon Trainers. Befriending creatures to help them on reaching their ultimate goal of becoming the Pokémon Master. That would be so exciting.

Suddenly, he lost his trail of thoughts when he heard something. The bushes behind him were rustling.

Wilson quickly got up. "Who's there?" But he had no response. He readied his fist in case he had to fight. Then, the bushes stopped rustling. He waited, but nothing or no one appeared.

Whatever it was, it must have got scared of me. He lay down on the ground with his arms supporting his head to get a view from the town.

That's when he heard something strange. It was a coo. He first thought it was the wind, but it was more like a voice than the sound of the wind. He looked around, but saw no one.

"I must be imagining things…" But he was cut off when he heard it again.

He got up and looked around again. "Whoever is here, please show yourself!"

Then, a blue light appeared in front of him, revealing what was making the sound. Wilson went agape when he identified what was in front of him. It was a creature that he never expected to encounter in his whole miserable life. Hovering in front of him, there was a Latias.

"I must be dreaming!" He quickly slapped his face hard, so he could wake up from the dream. But he didn't, because what he was seeing was real. His reaction made Latias giggle.

"I can't believe this. You are really a Latias?" Latias nodded and gave a coo. Wilson translated as a yes.

Oh my God… but how can this possible? There was only one answer to that. A miracle. One of his most prized dreams had finally come true.

Wilson slowly reached out his right hand towards Latias. Latias saw this and hovered a few steps back, fearing the human.

"Wait, I won't harm you. I promise." Latias stopped. Feeling he was telling the truth, she inched towards him. She let him feel her long neck. Her feathers were soft as he imagined they were.

Latias liked the gesture and gave a few happy coos. Then, he moved his hand to her head. But something strange happened. When he put it there, a burst of light let out and everything became white. (1)

#Few minutes later#

Wilson woke up with Latias above his head, looking at him concerned.

"What happened?" He grunted as he got up. He felt a terrible pain on his right hand. When he looked at it, he became surprise. On his hand, there was an encrypted symbol that resembled the one that Latias had on her forehead. This is quite familiar somehow… Wilson thought, but he shrugged it.

He looked at Latias who was still concerned for her new friend. "Don't worry, I'm okay." He got some happy coos as she started twirl around him in joy. Wilson chuckled. "Quite the energetic, aren't you?" She stopped and made a nod.

He still couldn't believe that Latias, a Pokémon, was real thing. He started to get curious. "Where did you come from? Do you have any family?"

Latias looked down when she heard the word 'family' and started crying. Wilson saw this and moved closer. "Hey, it's okay. Sorry to ask about it." He gave her hug. She rested her head on his shoulder. Strangely, she found it comfortable and quickly stopped crying. They stayed like that for a few moments, both enjoying the affection each other gave.

"Feel any better?" Wilson softly asked. All he got was a lick at his cheek. He chuckled as to how she was showing her affection towards him in such a short time they got know each other. "Well, why don't you come home with me since you don't have a place to stay?"

Latias gaped in surprise. This was her first contact with a human and he was asking her to come to his home. Her surprise quickly became happiness. She nodded and twirled around him again. She then tackled him, bringing down to the grassy ground.

Wilson smiled at her playfulness. It was just like when she was with Ash Ketchum from Pokémon Heroes. He set her to the side and got up again. "Now, let's think of a name for you…"

Most of the names he had in his mind were the ones he got from playing video games. "Karan?" She shook her head. "What about Scarlet?" She shook her head again. "Hmm… let's see…" Those two were the most usual names that he gave to his Latiases in his gameplays. Now, he had to think of a new one that could suit her. "What about Neemie?"

Latias thought for a minute and gave a happy coo, stating that she liked it. "I'm glad you like it, Neemie. Come on, I'll take you to my home."

He took her to his car. At first he thought she wouldn't fit at the passenger seat, but she managed when she made her equivalent of the human sitting with each of her wings at her seat's sides.

"Oh, one more thing. You may want to use your invisibility because if people see you, they will probably freak out." Latias nodded understanding her concern. But, before she could do it, Wilson interrupted her. "By the way, is there any other Pokémon around here beside you?" She shook her head in response. Hmm… Looks like she is the first of many about to come, I guess.

"Alright, you can use your invisibility now." She quickly did what he told. Everything seemed normal, except for the abnormal security belt that was hanging to thin air.

Wilson started the car and began driving back to his home. However, some thoughts still plagued his mind. This has to be work of Arceus, I have no doubt about it. He looked towards his 'empty' passenger seat for a moment. How I'm going to take care of a Legendary after all? Inside the games was one thing, but in real life it's way more complicated. He then looked to his right hand. And what's with this symbol on my hand? What does it mean? And how it's related to Neemie? He hoped he could get to the bottom of this real soon.

Note 1: Guess where I took this idea...

So what do you think about it? As you may have noticed, this chapter is basically an introduction of our main characters. The action time will happen after some chapters ahead.

I know that the Pokémon Regions were designed with Japan as their reference, but here I'll make them disperse around the world. In later chapters, I'll show you the other countries I have chosen to represent the other regions. (As you may have noticed, I chose Canada to represent the Johto Region.)

Any questions, please state them with your reviews. I'll try to answer the best I can.

Please review!
