Hi everyone. I've written several types of stories but I plan on posting more of them. This is an original story set in the Pokemon world. It takes place 14 years after Ash finishes the Kalos region. This story isn't about Ash though. I hope you like it and if you do be sure to like and comment. Also I'm looking for trainers to enter in this story. Pm me if you want your original character in on it. Enjoy.
A 35 year old woman with brown hair walks upstairs into her sons room.
She looks at her son as he sleeps in his small bed with blue covers on him with pokèball designs on it.
"He looks so much like his father. From his bright sky blue hair to his deep blue eyes." she thinks to herself as she walks over to him.
"Geo dear. It's time to wake up. Today is your twelfth birthday and you get to pick your first Pokèmon from Professor Oak." she says in a gentle voice.
Geo wakes up and looks at his mom. Noticing that she's wearing the special green dress with a light green trim that his dad gave her.
"Mom? What day is it?"
"It's Friday. Happy twelfth birthday." she says.
Geo looks at her and smiles before getting out of bed and tripping on the Pokèmon toys that were on the ground.
"Ouch! That hurt."
Geo's mom looks at him.
"Are you OK?"
Geo gets up and looks outside at the view that his house in Pallet town gives him. The morning sun shines while a gentle breeze appears to blow the leaves on the trees.
"Today's the day I start my Pokèmon quest." he says to himself.
"Yes it is. Get dressed so you can head out to Professor Oaks laboratory. I'll be down stairs with your backpack." she says before she walks out of the room.
Geo grabs his white T-shirt that has a pokèball design on it and puts it on before grabbing his dark blue jeans and black shoes with brown laces.
After getting dressed he walks down stairs and see's his mom sitting down with his blue backpack that looked similar to Ash's original backpack. Geo liked it for that reason. Ash Ketchum is his hero and his rival. She also had his favorite blue bomber jacket. The jacket has 2 white lines on the arms that reached from the neck to the talons. It was his favorite because his dad gave it to him before he left. But he was too young to wear it back then.
"I've packed your backpack and your jacket was washed. I also have your pokèwatch ready for you." she said.
"Thanks mom." he says as he walks over to her and puts on his jacket, backpack, and pokèwatch.
Geo's mom walks over to him.
"Don't forget to call. You have my number. If you see your sister, say hi to her for me. If you run into trouble, alert the authorities."
"Mom. I'll be OK. I'll have my Pokèmon with me and I'll call you every two days." he said.
Geo's mom smiles and hugs him as if she will never see him again. This was her little boy. She wanted to tell him to stay with her or even ground him so he wouldn't leave but if she did he'd sneak out like he always did.
"I know. It's just that my little boy is now a Pokèmon trainer. With your sister gone and your father on a journey, it's going to be hard with just me and your baby brother here. I love you Geo." she said before she let him go as tears fell from her eyes.
"I love you too mom. I'll be back when I finish my journey. Bye." he said as smiled and walked out the door.
Geo smiles as he walks to Professor Oaks laboratory. Several thoughts erupted in his mind. Some on his mom. Some on the road ahead.
"What kind of Pokèmon should I choose as my starter? A water type? They do look cool. Maybe a fire type. They are strong. Or maybe a grass type. They have endurance. Then again there's the new starter type, the electric type. They're fast. I can't decide. Which ever I choose, I'll remember this day." he imagines himself looking at the different types of Pokèmon.
He smiles before a boy with green hair runs into him from behind causing them both to fall to the ground. Geo gets up now irritated by the fall.
"ouch. That hurt." Geo looks at the boy, now irritated from getting knocked down, "what's you're problem?!"
The boy gets up and looks at Geo.
"Sorry. I'm in a hurry. I'm on my way to get my Pokèdex from Professor Oak."
Geo looks at the boy. He takes notice that he's wearing a black wrinkly T-shirt that looks like he threw it on earlier with blue pants and a black leather jacket that looked like a bikers jacket. His hair is straight and arced on his forehead to create an "M" shape. His eyes matched the color of his Leafgreen hair.
"Pokèdex?"
"Yeah. You know what a Pokèdex is right?" questioned the boy.
Geo nods, a little irritated that the boy would ask that as if he was stupid.
"Good. I wouldn't want to have to explain it to someone from the Kanto region. That'd be sad."
Geo viewed him. A little confused by what he just said.
"Aren't you from the Kanto region? I've seen you here twice before."
The boy smiles proudly.
"Nope. I'm from the Johto region. My names Jakeri Jyoti. But everyone just calls me Jake. I guess it's easier or something. Who knows." the boy shrugs.
"I'm Geo Matsuda and I'm gonna be the best Pokèmon master to ever exist. You'll see!"
Jake looks at Geo and smiles. He knows that his dream is to become the best Pokèmon master as well but as far as Jake sees it, Geo has a long way to go if he wants to beat him.
"That's the same dream I have. Guess one of us will be the best. I have an idea. Why don't we battle. I want to see how strong you really are."
Geo looks at Jake with a hint of sadness.
"I don't have any Pokèmon yet. I'm on my way to Professor Oaks laboratory to get my first one."
Jake looks a little disappointed.
"I'll join you then. I'm headed there anyway."
"OK. Then we'll have a battle." said Geo as he smiled.
Geo and Jake walked down the dirt road that lead to Professor Oaks white laboratory that was on the nearby hill. Geo smiles as he thought of starting his journey with a Pokèmon. Several more thoughts entered his head as they got closer and closer to the lab. What if I'm not a good trainer? What if I can't win? What if I don't see my mom again? These are just a few worries that he had.
Upon arriving at the steps to the laboratory, Geo had a worried look on his face. What if my Pokèmon doesn't like me? What if my sister says I'm a joke?
Jake quickly looks over at him and notices the look on his face. He begins to see himself since he was a new trainer as well. He knew how it was to have those kinds of worries.
"It's Geo right?"
Geo looks at him.
"Yeah."
Jake looks at Geo and smiles. He knows that Geo is stressed and nervous.
"It's OK. I know that you're nervous. You'll do fine." he says.
Geo looks at him. He knows that even he can't become a Pokèmon master without facing this. Ever since he was a kid, he was looking forward to this. The same path his dad, sister, and even his mom at some point took. They all took this same step. Now it was his turn. His turn to challenge the gyms. This was his story.
"Yeah. Let's do it." said Geo.
After walking into the laboratory, Geo and Jake saw several Pokèmon ranging from every region. They looked at them as they walked up to the Professor who was feeding a baby pichu.
"Professor Oak?" asked Jake.
"That's my name."
Geo smiles.
"Professor, I'm here for my first Pokèmon. My name is Geo Matsuda and this is Jakeri Jyoti. He's here for a Pokèdex." said Geo as he smiled.
The Professor turned around to show his face. His hair was brown and spikey with two strands resting on his forehead. He wore a black T-shirt under his unbuttoned white lab coat that had a bit of dust on the lower trims and sleeves. His pants were black with dust on the pockets. When he moved, his rusty half of the model 1 pokèball that hung from his brown leather belt swung and swayed.
"I'm Professor Gary Oak. Geo, you're late. So are you Jakeri." he said as he walked over to a clean table with pokèballs on it.
Gary picks up three pokèballs and walked over to Geo and Jake. He held one pokèball in one hand and the other two sat on his other arm as he held them close to his body.
The pokèballs were the new mark two models. They looked like regular pokèballs but with futuristic blue neon lights on the trim instead of a white trim. The button was also changed to a gray button. The pokèball also had a slight darker shade of red.
Gary hands a pokèball to Geo.
"You can choose from these three Pokèmon. Not all of them are the usual starter ones." said Gary.
Geo looks at the pokèball in his hand. He looks surprised by how much it weighs. This was the first time he held a pokèball.
"My first Pokèmon." he says as he gets excited.
With a throw, he releases the pokèball from his hand and into the air. The ball opens up and frees a Pokèmon that was on the inside. The ball digitizes in Geo's hand. From it emerged a growlithe. It smiled and barked at him as it chased it's tail.
"A growlithe! So cool." he said before he pushed the button on the pokèball.
Growlithe returned inside the pokèball.
Gary hands Geo another pokèball and Geo throws it. A bulbasaur emerges from it.
"Bulbasaur!"it said before Geo returned it.
Gary hands Geo the last pokèball. Geo throws it up and a Poliwag emerges from it.
It looks at him before turning away.
"My dad had a Poliwag. I'll choose him." said Geo.
Gary smiled and pulled out two small rectangular Pokèdex. They were both red and sleek. It was a similar design to the Unova Pokèdex. This Pokèdex no buttons but had a holographic top screen. The bottom screen had a D pad. It had a holographic scanner on the back.
"These are the two Pokèdexs I have." he said as he handed them to Geo and Jake.
Geo smiles and looks at Poliwag who's looking away.
"What's your dreams?" asks Gary.
Both of the glance at eachother before they both blurt out "To become a Pokèmon master and beat Ash Ketchum."
Gary stares at them and laughs.
"Beat Ashie boy?" he chuckles," Me and him were rivals for years. He gets better with every battle. You can't beat him that easily."
Geo grows a little angry and shouts," I will beat him! You'll see! I'm gonna to be the best. Better than anyone before. When I stand on the stage infront of Ash, I'll be ready."
Gary stops and stares at Geo. He now knows Geo has passion. He's watched Geo grow up since he had been 18 and returned to Pallet Town. That was eleven years ago. He never bothered to learn more about the boy, since he was too busy helping Pokèmon.
After hearing him yell those words he was drawn to him. Like a venomoth to the flames of a charmanders tail. This boy. No. This young man was willing to prove himself to the world. He could see it in his eyes and he's seen it before. In one person before. He's seen it in Ashs eyes when he battled. Could this kid have the same determination or is this feeling of strong will just a fluke. There's only way to see.
"Alright Geo. Do you know how to become a Pokèmon master?"
He looks at Gary now wondering. He's never thought of that before. He knows that they made a new rule on it nine years ago but he was too young at the time to remember. His dad had told him when he was four but he couldn't recall what it was. He always pondered on this question.
"No." he said in a soft and settle tone.
Gary smiled," What trainer doesn't know how to become a Pokèmon master? Nine years ago the champions made a rule with Ash's approval. If a trainer beats the elite four and the champion of a region, he or she will receive a Champion badge that will be put on there trainer card. Collect two of them and you'll be able to enter in the Pokèmon master tournament. If you win the tournament you will have to face the top four trainers in the world and if you beat them, then you can face the Pokèmon master of that time for his or her title."
Geo looks excited.
Gary looks at Geo and Jake's pokèwatches.
"Do you have your pokèwatch linked to your Pokemon?"
Geo and Jake look at him confused.
"Every trainer knows about it. Linking a Pokèmon to the trainers watch let's the trainer know it's moves and it's status. If a Pokèmon battles, you'd want to know how hurt it is. That's why the pokèball you use for that will link to your trainer card and that will link to your pokèwatch. You can also find your Pokèmon using it. Since you picked Poliwag, he's linked to your watch. Just tell your watch to show you Poliwag status."
Geo pushed the button on his watch to turn it on. When he did, a small blue holographic display screen shot up three inches into the air from his watch.
"What's Poliwags stats?"
"Showing Poliwags stats." replied the watch in a female voice as a hologram screen of Poliwags stats appeared," level ten. Health is at 100 percent. No status problems. Gender is male. Owner is Geo Matsuda. This Pokèmon has a special attack stat that is high but it has low defence."
"You can also say. Poliwags Attack list. For Poliwags attacks. Or Poliwags health." added Gary.
Jake turned to Geo and pulled out a pokèball.
"Ready for our battle?" he asked.
Geo looked at him ready. "Yeah."
Within one minute, Geo and Jake were standing 4 feet away from eachother with Poliwag on Geo's side.
Jake threw his pokèball and a cyndaquil emerged from it. The air was filled with tension as for who would make the first move. The tension made it feel like the air was suffocating. Every breathe that was taken felt like it was evading capture by the lungs. Every movement felt like it could be the wrong one.
Jake and Geo's watches were ready and the battle began.
"Poliwags move list." said Geo.
"Poliwag knows bubble. Water gun. Water sport. And double slap." said Geo's watch.
Geo looks at Poliwag before shouting with firie passion, "Poliwag, water gun!"
Poliwag jumped into the air and shot a huge and powerful stream on water towards cyndaquil.
Cyndaquil jumps out of the way.
"Use ember!" yelled Jake in retaliation.
Cyndaquil shot a bright red Flame from its mouth that flew towards Poliwag. Poliwag dodged it and shot three bubble from its mouth that flew towards cyndaquil. Geo looked confused because he didn't say use bubble. Did Poliwag use it on his own?
The bubbles hit cyndaquil and exploded on contact. Cyndaquil flew back but managed to regain his balance.
Cyndaquils health falls to 60 percent.
"Use tackle!" yelled Jake.
Cyndaquil tucked it's head and charged towards Poliwag.
"Dodge it and use bubble!"
Poliwag jumps in the air at the last second and shoots out a small stream of water from his mouth that moistens his body.
"Follow him!"
Cyndaquil jumps up with his head tucked and slams into Poliwag. Poliwag flies and hits the ceiling before falling to the ground.
"Poliwag!" yells Geo.
He struggles to stand up as his body drips water onto the tile floor. Geo prepared to run to him but Poliwag turns and give him a glare.
"Poliwags health is 60 percent." said the watch.
"Use leer!"
Cyndaquils eyes grew red as he forced a stare into Poliwag. Poliwags body grew red before returning to normal.
Geo looks at Poliwag. He looked like he was weaker now. The started to realize that he has to take control of this battle.
"Poliwag. Listen. I need you use water gun. Don't hold back. I'll tell you when."
"Cyndaquil use tackle!"
Cyndaquil prepared to charge towards Poliwag.
"Poliwag. Stand still."
Cyndaquil tucked it's head in and charged towards Poliwag.
"Cyndaquil! Use smokescreen as you run!"
Cyndaquil opened his mouth and released a black cloud of ash and smoke that blinded Poliwag and Geo
"Poliwag! Use water gun!"
Poliwag unleashed a powerful blast of water from his mouth while in the smokescreen. The attack was in vain as Cyndaquil slammed into Poliwag. He flew back into Geo's hands.
"Poliwags health is ten percent." said the watch.
Geo looked at Poliwag as he was trying to handle the pain he was in. His body had bruises that were a darker blue than his own body.
Geo held the pokèball in his hand as he looked at Poliwag. He knew that this was his first battle and if he gave up now he would always remember this. He also knew that he couldn't force Poliwag to be in pain. He pushed the button on the ball and Poliwag was absorbed into it.
"I lost." said Geo.
Jake returned Cyndaquil to his pokèball before he walked to Geo.
"It's OK. It happens. How about I train you?" he said.
Geo looked at him. Hope now in his reach.
"Yeah." he said before they both shook hands.
