"Come on Pikachu help me out here" were the words of a certain raven haired rookie trainer to his newly received yellow rat, a Pikachu, which was currently sitting on a tree branch.

"How about, no." was the rat's response, not like the trainer could understand.

On the other hand, Ash could understand the tongue being stuck out at him as a negative.

Growling in frustration, the raven haired ten-year-old, also known as Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town, picked up two rocks from the ground. One for the initial strike at those damned Pidgy, and another for any resistance.

Or maybe it was to toss at that Arceus damned yellow rat that still was sitting on the tree watching with mild amusement.

"Fine then! I don't need your help!" Ash said as he looked for another small brown bird Pokemon to try and assault. He noticed something that fit the description, maybe a bit bigger than an average Pidgy. So he summoned his strength and maybe a bit of his luck and threw the rock. It flew through the air, and with the tall-tale sound of a Thonk, it hit its mark right on the small birds noggin.

On the birds side of the story it hadn't been the best of days, some Rattata stole his food and he was ganged up on by a few Pidgy. Safe to say he wasn't in the best of moods, but when that rock hit him in the head he turned around to see a young raven haired trainer with a rat nearby, he saw red.

The bird flew at Ash looking to cause as much pain as possible then noticed the rat again. Connecting the dots the bird assumed he was what humans called a trainer, so he choose to take on the more dangerous target, and made a beeline towards the yellow rat sitting in the tree. He was about to make it too, but then felt another stone hit him again leaving him a bit disgruntled and off course… straight into the tree the mouse Pokemon was sitting on…

Ash couldn't believe what he just saw he then quickly fumbled around his pockets looking for a Pokeball, finding it he quickly threw it at the downed bird. As the whole outcome had finally hit Ash he started to smile like a mad-man. He caught his first Pokemon, all by himself with no help from that stubborn electric mouse. Putting the ball in his pocket he turned to the Pikachu, which had fallen from his perch on the tree, from shock or the bird hitting the tree, even more shocked then he had been and still staring at the place where the downed Pokemon once lay.

He was quickly shaken out of his shock when the human spoke "Told you I didn't need your help."

Pikachu's response had been blowing him a rassberry before climbing to his original spot in the tree.

Ash sighed and he took out Pikachu ball, he knew the small mouse wouldn't follow him nor get in the ball, and Gary, his rival ever since he was young, was getting farther and stronger every minute he wasted on this lost cause of a Pokemon, and he already had another Pokemon to replace the mouse. So he just left the Pokeball, pushed the release button, set it down by the tree Pikachu climbed and walked away. Pikachu got the hint and quickly ran down the tree and went to the forest in the opposite direction. Their paths making an early split.

As Ash continued through Route 1 as he looked at his Pokedex trying to look at Pokemon he caught. Finally finding the scan feature he scanned the pokeball containing his new pokemon.

"Spearow, the tiny bird Pokemon, Its loud cry can be heard over half a mile away. If it's high, keening cry is heard echoing all around, it is a sign that they are warning each other of danger." A robotic voice said.

"So it warns its friends if it's in danger, wonder why it didn't screech." Ash said to himself while continuing reading the things the machine didn't say aloud.

Spearow

Ability: Sniper

Growl

"Sniper, what's that?" Ash asked.

"Pokemon have abilities that come into effect in battles, some even have use out of battle. The Sniper ability makes critical hits gain a power boost. It has no use out of battle." the robotic voice replied.

"Got it, make sure to get as many critical hits as possible" Ash said closing the small machine to proceed onward.

Before he could make any move to head to the next city he was interrupted by a small boy that he failed to notice coming that had making a b-line towards him.

"Hey you!" The kid yelled.

"Huh?"

"You're a Pokemon trainer right?"

"Well I-"

"Yeah you are, you have that Pokedex your holding and Pokeball on your waist. So battle me"

"But I-"

Not listening to Ash the boy throughout his Pokemon, a small purple rat with huge buck teeth, a Rattata.

Ash, still a little bit caught off guard from the whole thing hesitated before tossing out his Spearow… Which right after he was released he preceded with flying up to Ash's head and began pecking for all he was worth. Ash started panicking and started running around waving his hands in the air trying to stop the bird from pecking his eyes out. It made a pretty humorous scene, or at least for the boy and his Rattata, who began laughing.

Spearow finally took notice to the boy and his rat laughing, he didn't take seeing someone laugh at him well and seeing the same species that stole his food again made him motivated him to fight. Spearow stopped harassing his human and got into position to battle. Ash taking notice of nothing pecking him took his place behind the bird with a determined look on his face. They were soon going to face there first battle, and their first test of teamwork.

Spearow looked completely confident in himself, despite the fact he had several major head injuries not even more than 30 minutes ago. He even yawned a bit, before Leering at the small mouse to and to scare it off back to its human.

The Rattata seemed a bit hesitant to fight a predator like Spearow, but a comforting look from his trainer gave him a bit more courage. So the small purple mouse stood at attention ready to make any sudden move.

"Okay Spearow, use let's start this off with growl." Ash commanded. Spearow just looked back at his trainer like he was an idiot. Was his trainer really stupid enough to think that he would need a human's help for a battle?

The Spearow's train of thought was cut off when he was tackled to the ground by the little mouse.

"Nice one Rattata!" the young boy called out. "Now use tail whip!"

The Rattata then proceeded to turn around and whip the bird with its tail repeatedly, further disorienting him. Spearow put a small amount of distance between from him and the rat to try and reorient himself before pecking the hell out of it, the human, and his stupid trainer. The damage was from was really getting to him and the pain in his small body he was ignoring has been making itself painfully obvious as of late.

"Spearow get in the air!" Ash yelled out, but before his Spearow could even think to respond,

"Rattata use quick attack to finish it before it can get into the sky!" and with almost blinding speed the small mouse rushed Spearow launching him with the force it hit.

The small bird to his credit tried to stop himself from falling to the ground and crash for the second time today, not that it helped. He crashed to the ground before rolling til he stopped a small distance from the trainers.

He tried to get up while ignoring whatever his trainer was saying, whatever it was he was saying, to fight that annoying pest, but the entire strain of the day finally took its toll on him. 'Beaten by a rat. Guess this is the final insult to my injury' Spearow thought before he finally let the darkness of unconsciousness take him away from this terrible day. He could have sworn he saw one of those humans running towards him before he lost all consciousness, but he chalked it up to head injury.

To Be Continued…

Revised my shit and added to it. Tell me anything I did wrong, and try to give criticism, ass kissing doesn't help me get any better.
