Chapter 1: The Journey begins
I awoken to the sound of rattling and and the bumps from the road. After a while the truck came to a complete stop. Yawning and stretching i opened the door to see four burly guys. I jumped back a bit scared. My mom called to me. "Gale don't worry about the packages the Machokes will take care of them." She smiled.
I looked at them again a bit surprised. "They're pokemon?". I've never seen pokemon like these in the Unova region. I headed towards our new house which was located in the Kalos region. Before i even walked into the door i looked in the corners of my eyes only to see the four pokemon flex and admire each others muscles. I sent shivers down my spine.
As i entered i noticed how beautiful our house was. My father is the current champion of the Unova region it's no surprise that he would have money to spare. "Gale please set your clock in your bedroom." I nodded and walked up stairs to set the time. While doing that i thought to myself how do i look after the hours of traveling. I looked at the mirror: my skin was dark; completely opposite from my parents since i was adopted. I had a black beanie with a grey and white pokeball and underneath it saying " P K M N", a black jacket with a white shirt with the same words on it, black pants, and white shoes.
Heading down stairs i heard my mother talking to someone. It was my father on a holographic transmitter. He noticed me enter and smiled."Gale, how's the Kalos region". He asked. "It's a beautiful." His smiled turned into a more serious tone. "Are you going to keep your promise?" He has been trying to get be to become the next champion of a region like him and mom ever since i was little. Honestly though i don't even want to become a trainer but i did promise him. "Yes i do plan on becoming a trainer." He smiled and said good. "I contacted an old friend of mine named Professor Sycamore to help you learn about becoming a trainer and give you a starter type. He's in the same city as you just look for a building with a pokeball on a podium. I have to good i love you both." *Click* It was the end of the call.
I said goodbye to my mom. She smiled and waved back. I decided to look around for a bit. The town was rather small but it did look very nice. After awhile of sightseeing i finally found the building. I entered to see hallways full of paintings. After awhile i entered a room to see a scientist with groove hair. I walked up to him. He stared at me with a confused look but shortly after nodded. " You must be Gale i presume?" I nodded. He clasped his hands together and smiled. "Alright do you need me to explain the basics of the world we live in?" I shook my head remembering when my father taught me. He understood and showed me a table where 5 pokeballs laid. "Choose a pokemon that you would like: Charmander, Squirtle, Bulbasaur, Snorunt, and lastly, Cradily." After think for a bit i decided to get a snorunt. "An ice-type nice choice." He looked behind me. "You must be Yuki." I turned to see the most beautiful oriental girl standing before me, she looked the same age as me 15. She smiled at the professor, she wall full of confidence. Professor Sycamore explained to her the rest of the pokemon. He had a twisted smile on his face. "I would recommend a Charmander ." she looked down and picked up the ball. "I was planning on getting it anyway.". He looked at me one more time and then back at her. "Why don't you two battle each other.". "That sadistic bastard" i thought to myself. She declined because she had some important family matters to attend to. He frowned but gave us a pokedex and a poke-start. "This is a new invention i've been working on! It allows you to see the health of your pokemon, which status effect is on it, tell which gender it is, and it shows what badges you've collected." He said proudly. We thanked him and walked out the door. She went left and i went right.
I entered my house by using our key, my mom wasn't home. I went upstairs and sat the pokeball on the desk. I laid down tired as ever. I heard rattling and a sound of energy. Setting up quickly i noticed Snorunt was out of its pokeball. I was surprised but i decided to check whether or not it was a male or a female. I turned on the watch like machine. Pressing on the Gender Analysis tab i pointed it towards the pokemon. It showed the results back to me. It was a female. I looked at her to think of a name. "Hmm how about runt, you look like a little one." I patted her head. She pouted at me and blew a cool wind from her mouth at me. I smiled and thought it might not be so bad to become a trainer with pokemon companions.
