Today was the day that Mikayla finally could start her Pokémon journey.

"Lets see. I'll need Pokéballs, berries, oh! Can't forget my chocolate!" she planned.

"Well, off to Professor Oak's Lab" she screamed as she rode away on a bus.

"SHHKKKKK"

"HOLY FARFETCHE'D, WHAT THE HO-OH WAS THAT," she shrieked.

"Sorry for the disturbance, but the government just issued a Team Rocket bomb threat and all forms of public transportation must stop. Please leave the bus. Arigato Gozaimasu! Said the bus driver.

"Stupid Team Rocket Cultists, always trying to steal some poor kid's Pikachu" lamented Mikayla.

Being over 5 miles from Pallet Town, she decided to take some shortcuts through the woods strangely inaccessible to normal people. Little did she know what was up ahead.

Into a clearing in the middle of the forest, Mikayla decided to take a break by a shady tree

"I should have brought more sandwiches," she said.

PLOP

"EEEKKK!"

Suddenly a squirmy Caterpie fell from a branch above. Worm silk ruined her lunch.

"I guess I'm going to have to eat you!" she pointed.

The Caterpie slunk back to the base of the tree.

"Awww. I can't eat you. That would be gross and mean. It would be MEASS! Anyway, will you agree to be my Pokémon if I raise you to a Butterfree, without the threat of being eaten by all those darn pooping pidgeys?" she asked.

"ENGNGNG" nodded Caterpie.

So, on their journey together, Mikayla and Caterpie continued through the shortcut. They traveled through dark jungles, barren plains, and...Is that a Meowth hot air balloon?

"What the Sharpedo is that! Oh My GAWD, it's the secret Team Rocket hideout," exclaimed Mikayla.

Mikayla and Caterpie crouched low under the surrounding shrubs. Hah, don't you just love to say the word "shrub". "SHRUB SHRUB SHRUB SHRU…"

"SHUT UP NARRATOR. YOU"LL GIVE US AWAY"

Anyways, Mikayla overheard the banter of the Team Rocket goons

"All hail Giovanni, master of the plan, now rookie, just don't unplug this, it will shut the whole system down…"

SYSTEM POWERING DOWN…WHIRRRrrrr…CLANK

"OK, which one of you is the damn idiot who unplugged it?" their leader exploded.

"Hehehe" laughed Mikayla as Caterpie used String Shot to yank out the cord.

Soon, they were miles away from the base. Suddenly, the forest cleared and Mikayla realized that they were finally in Pallet Town. Mikayla bolted to Professor Oak's Lab.

"I've come…pant…to claim…gasp…my starter Pokémon. Geez, why are there so many stairs to your lab?" she wheezed.

"If it is a Pokémon you want, you are in luck, I've got 3," said the professor.

Mikayla opened the first Pokéball. It was a Squirtle.

"All Hail Hitler" it cried

Mikayla opened the second Pokéball. It was a Charmander.

"All Hail Kim Jong Il" it shrieked.

Mikayla opened the last Pokéball. It was a Bulbasaur.

"I have no god," it said.

"I can't take any of these. I'm Buddhist!" She cried.

"I'm sorry" apologized Oak. "They were rescued from abusive homes, except the last one, he's good. But I can give you this Psyduck. The only thing it does is say "PSYYYDUK" and throw psychic poltergeist-like tantrums."

"That's perfect" Mikayla screamed.

And that's how Mikayla became obsessed with Psyducks.
