A new trainer Gill starts his journey through the Unova Region along with his childhood friend Bridgette as they leave Nuvema Town to start their journey and discover the Pokémon world.
Chap 01: The Journey Begins
An alarm clock goes off after it was put on snooze times and the time was 9:20AM
"What's the time?" He asked the clock
"Holy Crap I'm late!"
He then rushed out of bed and put on his black T-shirt, black jeans, red shoes and finally his white Jacket with blue stripes going down from the shoulder area. And then went to the mirror to see if he was presentable while he stared into his own grey eyes and observed his slightly tanned skin he straightened his black hair which looks wild and messy with strands going in every direction, and decided it was good enough. He took his blue backpack and was ready to go.
He went downstairs where he met his mom who had the same grey eyes tanned skin and black hair but longer and not tied in anything, and was wearing a sleeveless white top and pink yoga pants.
"So Gill, are you heading to the Pokémon Lab?" his mom asked
"You bet I'm going to get my very first Pokémon." Gill responded
"Well you have fun Gill."
"I will Mom. Oh yeah I might be coming home late so put my dinner in the microwave would ya." Gill screamed as he ran out the door.
"Sigh. He must really be excited about getting his first Pokémon."
-A-
Gill runs to the Pokémon research labs and sees a familiar face there.
That familiar face is surfer girl Bridgette. She has her same blue long sleeve hoodie and the sleeves were rolled up , and her board shorts and her sandals. Her long blonde hair tied in a ponytail and sported olive coloured eyes.
"Gill! You're late!" Bridgette screamed
"Sorry Bridgette I slept in, but I'm here now."
"Of all the days you had to sleep in on the day we get our first Pokémon."
"Hey can we go and get our Pokémon already." Gill requested
"Sure." Bridgette responded.
They went into the building as they are looking down a hallway leading to a metal door. And then they were met with someone who looked like a nerd.
That nerd was Harold who looked the same as he always did and wearing his light green coloured glasses. And wearing a lab coat and holding a clipboard.
"So are you the ones who are getting their Pokémon today?" asked Harold as he sniffed his nose
"Of course we are." Gill replied confidently
"Sniff, Ok."
As the three of them walked down the hall and Harold began to speak again
"You two should really be more punctual there is already someone here waiting for their Pokémon."
"Wait so it will be the three of us picking our Pokémon?" Gill asked loudly
"Yes." Harold replied simply
"That would have been useful information to give us yesterday." Bridgette stated
Then Harold complained "Well how was I supposed to know I'm not the professor, gosh!
Then they got to the metal door, Harold took off his glasses and put his eye in front of the retinal scanner. Then the door opened and the two looked in surprise at their third companion.
"Courtney?" they both said in unison
Courtney who had her short brown hair and chocolate brown eyes. And wore her white shirt with her purple sweater. Covering her shirt and wore her tight brown pants and pink and white sneakers replacing her heels.
"Gill, Bridgette, I didn't think you were getting your first Pokémon today. No matter my dream will soon be realised and become a reality."
"What is your dream Courtney?" asked Gill
"As if I must explain myself to you." she retaliated.
Then the Pokémon professor emerged from an automatic door holding three Poké balls
"Sorry to keep you guys waiting, I was stuck on level 35 of castle warriors hehe anyway let's get started. I'm Professor Wyatt. Sam Wyatt to be precise.
Yes Sam the video game geek is now the Pokémon Professor of Unova. He wears the same clothes as he did but now has an unbuttoned lab coat covering his every day wear.
"Now you're wondering why I'm giving your Pokémon, well it's to…."
"Observe the bond people have with their Pokémon." Courtney said in a fast tone "Look can we skip all that and get to the main reason why we're here?" she said cheekily
"Alright fine then. I wanted to explain how you control your Pokémon but fine well skip all that." Sam said with an annoyed voice
"Here are the three Pokémon one of you will be leaving with." He then continued "Starting with Oshawott, the Sea Otter Pokémon a water type." Oshawott appears out of the Poké ball giving the three soon to be trainers a cute stare
"Aww, Courtney isn't that just the cutest thing you've ever seen."
"No comment." Courtney said while she rolled her eyes at Bridgette.
Then Sam continued "Next we have Tepig, the Fire Pig Pokémon a fire type." Tepig exhaled embers from it snout as soon as it came out of the Poké ball.
"That's pretty cool." Gill said admiring Tepig's flames
"I'll say." Bridgette agreed
"It looks promising." Courtney admitted
"Finally." Sam said "We have Snivy, the Grass Snake Pokémon a grass type." As Snivy came out of the Poké ball it had it's arms folded and a confident grin on its face.
"Whoa, now this Pokémon looks powerful." Gill said
"Now there's a Pokémon with a desire to win!" Courtney stated
"It's… okay I guess." Bridgette said
Then Snivy gave Bridgette the death stare.
"Okay okay you're more than ok, your awesome."
"Now you guys take your pick while I get busy." Then Sam takes out his handheld and gets back to his game of 'castle warriors'
"So, ladies first." Said Gill
Courtney then grinned "The choice is obvious I'm choosing Snivy."
Snivy then put it's arms on it's waist, grinned and closed its eyes. Tepig then bowed it's head in shame and Oshawott was throwing a tantrum
"Well you pick your partner Gill." Bridgette requested.
"Okay." He then looked at Tepig then Oshawott and repeated this until several times even the Pokémon got annoyed with this.
"Okay I choose Tepig!" He says in dramatic fashion and points to his new partner
Tepig then jumps into the air in celebration and Oshawott is devastated.
Bridgette walks over to Oshawott tries to comfort the sad Pokémon
"If it makes you feel better I would have chosen you from the start, I kinda have a soft spot for water types." Then Oshawott's eyes sparkled.
"Hey Gamer Geek we picked our Pokémon, now give us the Pokédex already!" Courtney demanded
"Hey that's offensive! Anyway she is right, here are your Pokédex's, this device records information on every Pokémon you encounter." Gill's Pokédex was black and red, Bridgette's was white and blue and Courtney's was plain grey.
"So to the three of you one more thing here are fifteen Poké balls, five for each of you can only keep up to six Pokémon in your party." Oh and before I forget Courtney, here is Snivy's Poké ball. Bridgette, here is Oshawott's Poké ball. And Gill; here is Tepig's Poké ball. So you three enjoy your journey and take care of those Pokémon.
Then three of them left the Pokémon research lab. Then they were outside walking down town Nuvema Town. Then Courtney and Bridgette were started their conversation.
"So where are you going to start Courtney?" Bridgette asked
She then chuckled after hearing this. "Where do you think? I'm going to start my journey by beating the Striaton Gym Leader!" Then Courtney realised something. "Uhh Gamer Geek forgot to give me a badge case."
"Hey I'm going to get one too." Said Gill
"Tsh you're going to challenge the Pokémon Gyms."
"Well yeah, I will win all the gym badges and enter and win the Unova League."
"How do I put this delicately? Your knowledge of Pokémon is similar to that of a six year old."
"Okay Court, that's a little uncalled for." Bridgette stated
"It's okay Bridge I'll change her opinion of me after I beat her in a battle."
"Tsh you're going to scare me with a type disadvantage? Okay rookie you're on!"
Harold was going to referee for the match.
"Ready to lose Gill?!" Courtney said with a grin
"Not to you. Let's win this Tepig!"
"No way will Snivy and I lose our first battle as partners. Right Snivy?!"
"Hey Oshawott why don't you watch the battle, they may be our friends but on the battle field their our rivals."
"I'll give you the first move Gill."
"Thanks Courtney. Now Tepig use Tackle!"
Tepig charged into Snivy with full force and sent Snivy back into a tree.
"Let's finish this use Ember!"
Tepig's rounded tail end glowed red and shot embers at Snivy.
"I won't lose, Snivy use Leaf Tornado!"
And Snivy went upside down and started to spin creating a tornado of leaves using it's tail. Snivy used Leaf Tornado to deflect Tepig's Ember.
"What! How did you do that!?" Gill asked
"I told you, I won't lose! Snivy use Vine Whip!"
Snivy extended vines from it's neck and started whipping Tepig with them.
"Tepig dodge it!"
But Tepig couldn't get out of the way of the super-fast Vine Whip.
"That Vine Whip is too fast. Tepig can't dodge them."
Snivy retracted the vines
"Tepig use Ember!"
"You don't learn do you? Snivy use Leaf Tornado!"
And like the last time Ember was deflected by Leaf Tornado
"Now, Snivy Tackle!"
"Well do the same. Tepig use Tackle!"
Tepig and Snivy ran into each other's heads and Tepig rammed Snivy back a little.
Courtney thought to herself 'Hmm it would seem that Tepig's physical attacks are quite powerful. So it's time to end this'
"Tepig use Ember once more!"
"Snivy dodge it!"
Snivy jumped over Tepig's Ember.
"Snivy use Vine Whip and throw Tepig into the air."
"Huh what the?!" Gill shouted
Tepig was thrown into the air by Vine Whip
"Now Snivy finish this with Leaf Tornado!"
Before Tepig fell to the ground it was caught with Leaf Tornado and Snivy sharply jerked it's body to slam Tepig into the ground.
"Tepig no!" Gill screamed
Then Tepig's eyes were replaced with still black sprials
Harold announces "Tepig is unable to battle so Snivy wins and the victory goes to Courtney!
Then Gill ran to his wounded Pokémon
"You were great Tepig. Take a good rest."
"See I told you, I wouldn't lose. Snivy that was a perfect performance. Return. Well I'm off the Striaton City to win my first gym badge."
And she left.
Bridgette tried to comfort Gill "You know it's not bad to lose to Courtney, I mean she really hates to lose."
"I'm not bummed at all in fact I more fired up! Now that I have Courtney as a rival I know how much stronger me and Tepig must become."
"Wow that's great, hey how about me and Oshawott help out?"
"Sure that will be great."
-A-
At Gill's house the next day his mom was saying goodbye to her son.
"Goodbye Gill, enjoy yourself out there, and make sure your nice to your Pokémon."
"Don't worry I will mom."
"Oh and Tepig take care of my son for me I know he likes getting into trouble then Tepig started laughing"
"Mom!" Gill moaned
"Sorry I couldn't resist now you and Tepig go out and enjoy yourselves."
"Thanks, Bye mom." He yelled as he went over to the edge of Nuvema Town
-A-
Bridgette and Gill end of Nuvema Town.
"So your parent agreed to let you go." Gill asked
"Yeah after some convincing."
"Alright let's go." Gill shouted. Then he realized something and asked Bridgette. "Where are going?"
Bridgette rolled her eyes "Were going to Accumula Town first, then from there we can get to Striaton City."
"Ok then let's go." Gill screamed
A/N: So there's the hardest part done. Also if you have any ideas on who can become gym leaders and some possible Pokémon /TD character matches or just want to express your views on the story Please comment it would be really appreciated
P.S: Obviously Snivy was a perfect match for Courtney. Let's see if you can come up with a better match up. That is my challenge to you.
See ya on the next chapter!
