Waking up, I immediately noticed the unusual amount of peace that existed in my house at the moment. Not a noise. Not one, single noise. To most people, that might not be much of a strange occurrence. But to me, it was really, really strange. My mom was one of those people who woke up early and talked quite loud. I slowly undid the covers of my lime green bed, stepping out onto the cold wooden floor of my bedroom. Walking into the kitchen, I realized that my mom was actually gone.
I tilted my head, but payed really no notice to it. I looked at the clock, seeing that it was already almost ten. I went back into my bedroom, shutting the door and getting dressed in my usual outfit. I always wore a blue and white long-sleeved shirt with a pink pokeball on it, and black pants with a yellow skirt. My mom said that I dressed too crazily, but I didn't care. It was my style, whether she liked it or not.
Another weird quirk about me was the way that I wore my hair. I always twisted it up into buns on either side of my hair, and then allowed it to droop into pigtails. Yeah, it was strange, but I liked the way it looked. My father had always teased me and put it up like that. My dad was actually in a different region now. He was a pokemon researcher, and he traveled all over the world to try and find new species of pokemon. I didn't get to see him much, but it was fine. I knew he was doing something really important.
Once I was finally dressed, I heard the front door open. I slipped on my tennis shoes, (Which were blue, yellow, and white) and walked over to my door. I opened, it, walking out into the main room to see my mom closing out of her Xtransceiver. I smiled, walking over to her. For some reason, she seemed a bit out of breath.
"Good Morning mom." I said happily. She smiled, leaning forward and kissing me on the cheek, like any mother would do in the morning.
"Good morning Rosa. Did you sleep well?" she asked me, stroking back my hair. I laughed, nodding slightly.
"Yeah, I did." I replied. However, I left out the small detail that the reason I had slept well was because she wasn't up at 5 in the morning, roaming the house singing to herself. She smiled.
"Well, that's good. Now, I've got to ask you something. Do you know Professor Juniper?" she asked me. I wracked my brain for a moment, then finally came to a conclusion.
"Oh, yeah! She's a famous Pokemon researcher, just like Dad, right?" I asked her. She nodded.
"Yes, and a very old friend of mine, actually. She called me today for the first time in ages! I know this is completely out of the blue, but Rosa...Do you want to have a Pokemon?" she asked me. I froze for a moment, my eyes wide in excitement. I automatically knew that answer.
"Well, yeah! That would be amazing!" I exclaimed happily. She smiled, patting my arm gently.
"Okay, well then, step one is complete. Well then, do you know what a pokedex is?" she asked me. Again, I automatically knew the answer. In truth, I had been studying up on pokemon for the past three years so one day, I could be just like my dad. But, I had never really told anyone about that.
"Yeah, it's a device given to new trainers. It automatically records any Pokemon that you encounter on your journey." I replied. She nodded in approval.
"Yes, very good. I knew you would know the answer. Now, would you like a Pokedex?" she asked me. I nodded vigorously.
"Yes, I do. That would be amazing." I said. I didn't know for sure what she was getting at, but I had a pretty good idea.
"Okay then, step two is completed. Now, Rosa, your course of action has been set. A girl named Bianca has come here to meet you! She's Professor Juniper's assistant. I was told to simply look for a big, green hat." she began. I waited in anticipation. My mom smiled.
"Yep, that's right. You're going to go look for Bianca. And then, you'll get a Pokedex, and a Pokemon to be your partner." she said. I squealed, jumping up and down. Finally, I would get to go on my own journey!
"Okay, well you'd better get going Rosa. Oh, and that young lady may be a bit lost, since she's never been here before. But just go look for her! Be careful!" she said. I nodded, then sprinted out the door. Suddenly, I heard a voice call my name.
"Hey, Rosa!" it said. I immediately recognized it as my friend Hugh. He and his little sister walked over to me slowly.
"Have you gotten your Pokemon yet? There aren't any trainers around here, and I'm getting pretty bored." he said. I looked at him in excitement.
"Oh, wow! You're getting a Pokemon too! That's awesome. But no, I'm going to go get one now. From a girl named Bianca." I said. He tilted his head, his blue hair falling slightly over his face.
"Bianca? And she's giving you a Pokemon? Really? That's cool." he said. I nodded. Hugh's sister walked over to me.
"Rosa...If you get a Pokemon, take really good care of it, okay?" she asked me. I smiled, reaching forward and fixing her hair. She had always been like a little sister to me too, since I had known her brother for so long.
"Yes, of course I will. I'll make sure it's the happiest Pokemon alive, okay?" I asked her. She nodded in agreement.
"Okay, well let's go get your Pokemon. There's something I need to do, and to do that, I need someone I can trust besides my partner Pokemon. A person I can trust. That's right, I'm talking about you Rosa! After all, I've known you longer than practically anyone. Oh, you head on home sis, okay?" he said, turning back to his sister.
"Okay big brother." she said, turning around and going home. I was staring at Hugh. I never realized that he had considered me that great of a friend...I mean, yeah, we hung out all the time...But for him to say that he trusted me more than anyone in the town...That was really special to me.
"All right, let's go find that person named Bianca." he said, winking at me. I smiled, and we began walking through the town. After walking around the entire town, we still couldn't find her. Hugh turned to me.
"We could always try the lookout. I mean, that's the only place that we haven't checked in the town...So we should go." he reasoned. I agreed, and so we walked to the other end of town, down the long path to the lookout. Once we were there, we climbed the stairs to the very top.
There, looking out over the town, was the lady in the green hat. We had finally found her. I turned back to Hugh, who sighed in releif. He then stepped aside.
"Okay, well, go get your Pokemon! I'll be waiting here for you, okay?" he asked me. I agreed, walking up to the platform. I walked over to the lady, and tapped on her shoulder softly, so I wouldn't scare her.
"Excuse me, are you Miss Bianca?" I asked her. She turned to me, looking a bit dazed an confused.
"Oh, yes that's me. Assistant of the Pokemon professor. Sorry, I was just looking at the scenery. It's so pretty...But anyways, you must be Rosa, am I right? Wow, you're exactly like what I heard you would be like! It's nice to meet you!" She said.
"Yeah, you too." I said, shaking the hand that she had outstreached to me. The girl looked very kind, with blonde hair that fell to her shoulders and bright red glasses.
"Okay, well I have a very important question for you. Will you help us complete the Pokedex?" she asked me. I nodded, answering the question for a second time. She grinned.
"Oh, wow, thanks! Your support will help Professor Juniper's research move foward! Anyways, filling up the Pokedex is totally fun! But, now, I've got something for you! Okay...Ta-daaaa! In here is the Pokemon that will be your partner." she said.
I studied the box in her hand. It was silver, with a huge glass lid over it. Bianca pressed a button, and the glass lid slid backwards to reveal three labeled PokeBalls. The first one read, 'Oshawott-Water Type' The second one read 'Tepig-Fire Type' And the final one read, 'Snivy-Grass Type' I studied them for a moment.
"I...I guess that I'll take Snivy please." I said, finally making my decision. I took out the pokeball, clutching it in my hand. She smiled.
"Oh wow! You and that Snivy are a perfect match!" she said. I was confused by that for a second. Why did she think that I resembled a grass snake...But I didn't care. I had finally gotten my own Pokemon!
"Well, now that you've got a Pokemon, you need a Pokedex too! So, here you go!" she said, handing me a small pink device, that looked a bit like a cell phone. I thanked her, putting it in my pocket. Suddenly, Hugh bounded forward.
"Hey, how long were you planning on keeping me waiting anyways? Hey, what's that? OHH it's your partner, isn't it? That's great! But what's that you're holding in the other hand..." he asked, staring at my Pokedex. Bianca suddenly spoke up.
"That's a Pokedex!" she said. Hugh looked confused for a moment, but then looked quite serious. He looked Bianca in the eyes.
"Please...Can I have one too? I want to get stronger...If I have a Pokedex, I can learn more about Pokemon. And I'll get better, right?" he asked her. She studied him for a moment, then reached in her pocket.
"Okay...I guess you're right. Here you go!" she said, giving it to him. He thanked her, then turned to me.
"Let's see how good of a trainer you are! I'll use my Tepig...I raised it from an egg!" he yelled. I stared at him like he was crazy.
"Wha-But I just got my Pokemon!" I exclaimed. He shook his head, taking out his PokeBall.
"Nope, I won't let you back out of this one. Tepig, GO!" he shouted. His Pokeball burst open, and a small orange pig popped out. I threw my PokeBall on the ground, like he had, and my Snivy came out. I took out my Pokedex, pointing it at Snivy.
"Snivy. Grass Type. Level 5. Male. Attacks include Tackle and Leer." it said. I breathed a sigh of relief. At least I knew what it could do now...
"Okay, Tepig, use Tackle!" he yelled. The Tepig ran towards Snivy quickly. Thinking on my feet, I quickly yelled a command at Snivy.
"Dodge it, then use tackle!" I screamed. Sure enough, Snivy jumped out of the way just in time, dodging the attack. Then, it came from behind, knocking Tepig over. Hugh looked at me in astonishment, then back at his Tepig.
"Okay, Tepig, use tail whip!" He said. The Tepig walked over, wagging it's tail. I checked my Pokedex, seeing that it had lowered Snivy's attack. But, I felt that the Tepig was already quite weak.
"Snivy, Tackle! One more time!" I shouted. My Snivy jumped into the air, landing on top of Tepig and bringing it down. The Tepig lay on the ground, knocked out. I stared at it, suddenly feeling bad. But, I ran over to my Snivy, hugging it.
"Great job! You're such a great Pokemon!" I exclaimed loudly. It rubbed its head against my hand, and I smiled. Then, I looked up at Hugh sadly.
"Sorry about that...Is you're Pokemon okay?" I asked him. He blushed, looking at his Tepig.
"Yeah, he's fine. Don't apologize, that's what battles are for. But you're really strong. Now, I'm heading off. Get stronger!" he yelled, running down the stairs and away. I stared after him, then returned my Pokemon to it's PokeBall.
"Both your Pokemon are so strong! That was an amazing battle. But, you might want to heal Snivy at the Pokemon Center. You've been there before, right?" she asked me. I nodded.
"Yeah, with my dad. I'll be fine. But thank you so much Bianca. I'll see you later." I said, then walked away toward the center, happy that I finally had a Pokemon.
