"And Lance's dragonite takes a hard blast from the new challenger, Ken!" "That's right! The new challenger to our league is no pushover! Not many trainers can train a gyarados that well and deceptively teach dual type water and flying type pokemon zap cannon!" "The crowd is going wild! And dragonite is going down. I've never seen Lance look so shocked in my entire life! ... Wait! Dragonite is back with a vengeance and that hyper beam must have hurt!" "Another shot at the big D by gyarados and .
BRINGGG!!!
An alarm clock goes off, shaking Ken out of his slumber and disrupting his perfect dream. It was only 6:00 am but Ken Takenouchi (sorry ran out of surname ideas) was already up and awake busying himself with last minute preparations for the beginning of his pokemon journey. After washing up and going through his bag for the fourth time since last night Ken rushes down to fix a sandwich and grab a packet of milk from the fridge. "What's the rush son? It is only 6:40 am. you have another twenty minutes to go!" asked a well dressed man who was reading a newspaper seating at a quaint little coffee table at the kitchen. "I have to make sure I am not late, bye dad! Say bye to mom for me ok? See you!" replied Ken as he rushed out of the door.
"My, my we are early aren't we?" asked Misty. In towns where there were no labs or professors, the local gym leader would be the one to give out and officiate the starting of a trainer's journey although their pokedex and starter pokeballs would be issued by the local professor, Professor Oak for Kanto and Professor Elm for Johoto in this instance. Ken was an eleven year old boy living in Cerulean City. "Yes madam! I made sure I would not be late!" "How cute you are! Since you are so early, why don't you look at your choices first?" "Really I can look first?" asked Ken in disbelief. "Of course you can. It is already 6:50 am and the real process starts in only 10 minutes. And look here come the other trainers!
Misty gets up on a platform and starts to give a small briefing. "Here at Cerulean, our specialty is water! So starting trainers have a choice of poliwag, horsea, staryu, shellder and seel. The order in which the trainers will choose will be decided by chance! Please wait a few moments." An excited murmur passes through the bunch of 3 trainers-to-be. Finally after about 5 minutes Misty appears. "Ok first up is Jack followed by Amos and finally Ken" the trainers go up to the platform where there are 5 pokeballs. As it turns out, Jack chose shellder while Amos chose staryu. When it was Ken's turn to choose he was left with poliwag, seel and horsea. "A seel can evolve into the powerful ice and water type dewgong while horsea could become the powerful kingdra if I play my cards right. A poliwag is not too bad too. and poliwraths are no pushovers. what a tough choice. Finally Ken picks up a pokeball and goes to Misty to collect his pokedex and pokeballs.
Exiting from Cerulean City Ken carries on towards the rock tunnel via route 9 and 10. While walking slowly through a worn out path a pokemon suddenly jumped up at Ken shocking him so much so that he almost fell down. Taking out his pokedex, the mechanical voice responded, ~ mankey, a monkey fighting type pokemon who is well known for his temper ~ "All right! A wild pokemon. Go Horsea!" A flash of light emits from the pokeball and a horsea popped out ready for a fight. "Ok horsea, start off with a smokescreen then follow up with a bubble!" commanded Ken. Blinded by smokescreen, all of mankey's missed horsea by a long shot. Dodging a low kick horsea blows out a steady stream of bubbles hitting mankey right in the back. "All right keep this up and we will be able to weaken it down in no time!" cheered Ken as horsea fired off another round of bubbles at a very confused and puzzled mankey. "Nows the time, pokeball go!" exclaimed Ken as the pokeball hits mankey and sucks it into the pokeball where It was too tired to fight back.
"I.I . I caught my first pokemon! Mankey is mine!" rejoiced Ken happily as horsea did a little jig on the ground. After returning horsea to its pokeball Ken rushed through the tall grass towards the pokemon centre outside the rock tower. "Oh! Hello, you seem to be very happy" commented nurse joy as Ken handed her his pokemon at the pokemon centre. "Indeed I am, on my first day of being a trainer I caught myself a new pokemon!" "Oh really what did you catch?" asked nurse joy as she tended to another trainer's bellsprout. "A mankey and it was really feisty too!" "A. a . a mankey did you just say you caught a mankey around routes 9 and 10?" asked nurse joy. "Yes. is there something wrong?" "It is just that for the past one week or so, whole groups of mankey have been vanishing from routes 9 and 10 and there is o trace as to what has happened.
A sad silence penetrated the cheer of the lively pokemon centre as the trainers around backed up nurse joy's story with various stories and accounts of mankey suddenly vanishing. "What has been keeping the mankey from this area I have no idea, but we will find out as soon as we can!" proclaimed nurse joy cheerfully. Offers of help from the trainers there began pouring in. Suddenly a scream was heard outside the pokemon centre. Ken and a group of trainers rushed out only to find a hurt trainer and a bunch of unusually angry mankey. The mankey had bloodshot red eyes and were staring at the trainers with a look which conveyed a simple yet frightening message. Next time, we are after you. ____________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________
What's going on? Can they find out what has happened and what will be become of Ken's pokemon adventure? Read the next chapter to find out! For now see you and please READ AND REVIEW! Flames are welcome as it tells me what is wrong so I can change!
