This is my 6th Pokemon story and my first story that's made because of a "request" you can say.

Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!... I smashed the button but didn't break the clock at least. I looked at the clock and saw the time. I saw that it's 7:35. Really early I must say. Considering I just wanted to get pokemon.
I'm in Pallet town and I live close to a friend of mine. His name's Ash. Me and him are adults now 18 to be exact, we were born around the same time. I will start our pokemon journey on this day. I'm gonna go early as expected because I wanted to get my pokemon. I got dressed put on a pair of socks, shoes, a pair of boxers and shorts and a shirt. I took a bath before all of that just to be fresh awake. My mother prepared breakfast for me.
"Remember to be safe out their, honey." She said before I left.
"Yeah no problem."
"Bye, have fun!"
[7:49]
Got my stuff prepared and some money. I bought some potions, food, and water for the journey. I got a casual backpack to begin my journey and put my stuff their. I went out and walked to Professor Oak's lab to get my starter. The sun was still relatively close the horizon so I knew it was very early. I had a wrist watch to keep the time. I passed by Ash's house and Gary's house they still must be sleeping. I went my towards the lab.
I reached the lab and there's no one but Professor Oak
"Ah welcome." Oak said in a drowsy way. "I see you came here early to get your pokemon. Really early." he said in a yawn.
"Yeah. I just wanted to be early and I was too early."
"Well then you can have all the time you need to check out the pokemon."
I came forward and saw 3 pokeballs in a circular container. Each one contains a starter. I looked at them and saw symbols each one corresponding to the pokemon's type.
"Can I take them out and have a look?" I asked him.
"Sure. You can inspect them if you want. I'll get you your pokeballs and pokedex…" He then yawned, "...And a cup of coffee."
With that said he gave me my pokedex and pokeballs then went to get a coffee.
(There's Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle. Wonder who should I pick.) I thought to myself. I activated the pokeballs.
"Bulbasaur!"
"Char! Char!"
"Squirtle! Squirtle!" They all called.
"Hmmmm. Which one to choose?" I said as I reached for my pokedex.
While that was happening Professor Oak came in still yawning with some steaming coffee.
"Have you chosen one yet, Kyle?"
"Ehh not yet. I should've chose one of them in my sleep." I said mostly to myself.
[Minutes later]
"Ok then let's go!" I said. I went out of the lab with my starter following suit. My starter was the fire lizard Charmander. I named it Flare. I wanted to get a good head start even if it means leaving a friend behind. But ash is always late and quite slow to be honest.
I used my pokedex just to get a good glimpse of them and their moves. Flare had a good starting moveset of Ember, Scratch, and Growl. It's really good. I learned more from the pokedex as it showed that it is female and has a adamant personality. Really interesting how the pokedex can know all of this in one scan of a specific pokemon.
We were walking on our through Viridian City. The gym there is closed so I have to return here at some point, and no point in staying here if the gym's closed. So we went straight to Pewter City. I was going through some grass and encountered a pokemon, it was a Pidgey.
"Ohh look our first pokemon!" I said in excitement which also found it's way to Flare.
"Char!"
I got my pokedex to scan this Pidgey. Nothing much said. It has Sand attack and Tackle, is male, and has a sassy personality
"Flare use scratch!" I said to her. She got her claws and scratched at the Pidgey. The Pidgey used tackle but didn't really do much to Charmander.
"Scratch the Pidgey again Flare!" It didn't hesitate and scratched the pidgey and it was weak. I got my pokeball and threw it to the Pidgey. Before I knew it the Pidgey was engulfed in a red light and disappeared. The pokeball was shaking. Then it clicked. First pokemon caught.
"Yes great work Flare!" I said as I punched the air.
"Char!" She said and jumped towards me. I caught her laughing, she's quite heavy for a little pokemon.
"Gotta put you down, you're quite heavy." I said putting her down.
"Char."
"Alright, now let's get walking to Pewter City." I said. She followed shortly.
We reached it in little time and I caught a Nidoran, Weedle, and Caterpie while I was at it. I battled couple of trainers as well, each one of my pokemon having a battle so they can level up. They were so easy. But I don't think Brock or Misty will be easy at all because one, they're gym leaders, and 2 their types are super effective against Flare basically making her somewhat useless. She will only be a last resort though. There was nothing much at Pewter city. Just a medium sized settlement with the gym being in the middle along with a pokemart and pokecenter. I first went to the pokemon center to heal my team. Then went to the pokemart to get pokeballs, potions and status effect heals.
I reached the doors of the Pewter City Gym, I'm shaking but I slowly got my composure by taking a deep breathe.
"You ready Flare?"
"Char!"
"Ok, I won't put you in your pokeball but you won't be the first to fight, cause you will utterly get wrecked by rock types, so I'll use you as a last resort. Keep an eye on the opponent's moves." I said to her. She nodded. I took another deep breath and walked through the doors.
(There's no turning back now.)
-Giovanni-
"Finally another clone, another one. A successful one this will be. That other Mewtwo had escaped and gone too powerful. Now this one will be more or less submissive and less powerful than the previous one, but still the same nonetheless. Cloned from the mythical Mew. Born, no not born, created to be the most powerful psychic pokemon the world will ever see." I looked at the tank containing the tranquilized Mew.
"No one will see this coming. No one can stop us now at this point. Team Rocket will reign over all!" I rambled
"Giovanni sir!" I heard behind me
"What is it now? Better be something urgent."
"Uh not really sir."
"Then stop wasting my time."
"I'm just notifying you of a wandering trainer, and he has Charmander."
"Oh, you're telling me you came here just to notify about a kid who just picked his starter?!" I said intimidatingly. He gulped.
"Y-Yes s-sir, but he's not a kid he's 18." I thought about that for a moment.
"Well then, that's ok. I'm just hoping this trainer gets strong enough to battle the gym leaders and then, when he comes here, he will face the wrath of Team Rocket."
"Yes sir!"
"What's his identity?"
"Kyle Woods, he came from Pallet."
(Woods? That name sounds… familiar.)
"Alright then dismissed." He left shortly afterwards.
"Woods…That name sounds all too familiar." I went to my computer to look up the name.
"No, it can't be…"
Chapter 1. Yes it's shorter than the usual chapter I write, about 600 words shy compared to the others.. It's because this is just the beginning. This is just a glimpse of the story.
Again thanks to jermainessj48 for requesting this story.
