Hi there, people of the Pokémon world! My name is Rozaleena Cortez, and I will be the… equivalent of a coordinator for this here story. This is my very first Pokémon fanfic, so if you have suggestions, please do not hesitate to tell me.

Fang: RozaCourt does not own Pokémon. Only her characters and… one Pokémon.

Me: thank you, Fang! He's here with me all the way from the Maximum Ride fandom.

Fang: only for your cookies.

Me: whatever. Anyways, enjoy!

Chapter one: Ash

"Whoa, I've never seen so many people collected around one specific spot that isn't a stadium at one time," I muttered as Iris, Cilan, and I walked to the square. We had just arrived back in Unova.

"Is today a festival day that we may have forgotten?" Iris asked Cilan.

"I don't believe so. Let me…."

"Oh my goodness! Iris, is that you?! Excuse me!" We looked from Cilan to the crowd. A girl with really long platinum blond hair pushed her way through and looked at us. "It is you!"

The girl smiled as someone took a picture of her before running in our direction. Iris's look of confusion turned into one of recognition. "Lily!" The two girls hugged tightly. Even Axew seemed happy.

"I knew it! I came back from my journey, but your mom said you went to another region! I was bummed out because I got here just as you were leaving! But I stuck around knowing you would come back eventually! And now here you are, and-OMG- I missed you so much!" the girl said in one breath. The two hugged.

"I missed you too, Lily! You've missed so much! I can't wait to fill you in!" Iris said.

"Axew, ew!" exclaimed Axew. The blond picked him up.

"Of course I missed you, Axew. How could I not?" 'Huh? How did she understand him?' I thought as the girl and the Pokémon seemed to strike up a conversation.

"Um, hi there," I said. The two girls looked over at Cilan, Pikachu, and me.

"Oh, right. Sorry guys. I just got a bit excited," Iris replied, rubbing the back of her head. "Lily these are my friends Ash and Cilan. Guys, this is my other childhood friend Lillian."

"A friend of Iris is a friend of mine," Lillian replied, setting Axew down to shake our hands.

"Likewise. It's nice to meet you, Lillian," Cilan replied.

"Please, call me Lily. Everyone else does." Her eyes fell on me. "Oh my goodness, you have a Pikachu for a partner too?! He is so adorable!"

"Pika?" Pikachu tilted his head to the side in question.

"Yep, you heard me right. I said 'have a Pikachu for a partner too.'"

"You can understand Pokémon?" I asked.

"Of course. My whole family can. It's what makes us great Pokémon trainers, masters, coordinators, and connoisseurs. Come on out and make new friends, Pikachuett." A Pikachu climbed onto Lily's head.

"Pika, pika!"

"Pikachu!"

"I don't do much battling, so your Pikachu is probably a lot stronger than mine. But if I ever am in a dire situation, she comes through for me."

"What do you mean, you don't battle much? Aren't you a Pokémon trainer?" Cilan asked.

"Lily is more of a show girl than anything. She goes around the world searching for the rarest Pokémon in each region. In the midst of her searches, she competes in pageants," Iris answered for her.

"Exactly. I even have my own show: Rare Finding with a Rare Lily. Pikachuett is my co-host."

"Wow, that must be a lot of fun," I replied.

"It is. And sometimes, the Pokémon join me in my travels and we become great friends."

"Hey, Lily. Last time we spoke, you said you wanted to find the rarest of the rare Pokémon. Did you?" The other girl smiled and pulled out a Pokéball.

"See for yourself. Uniswan, it's time for your close up!" We all gasped lightly when the Pokémon came out. It was a pure white unicorn with a shiny white horn, pink sparkly mane, and swan like wings. I pulled out my Pokédex and searched up Uniswan.

"Uniswan is a flying and fire type Pokémon. Her horn comes in great handy when she's in danger," the voice on the Pokédex said.

"Wow, I've never even heard of a Uniswan," Cilan told her, touching the Pokémon's mane.

"Well, there's only one. And she only appears to the Chosen Ones," Iris informed us. "And becomes the partner of the True Chosen One. The one with a very pure heart. Which explains Lily through and through."

"Pika, pikachu," Pikachuett said to Lily.

"Oh, you're right! I totally forgot! Sorry, guys, I have to go. Mom sent me to get some berries and I still have to get them. Can't have a berry cake without berries." She mounted Uniswan. "Hey, I have an idea. Why don't you all come to my place for dinner?"

"Sure! Same time and place?" asked Iris.

"You know it. And bring all of your Pokémon too. We'll have something extra special for them. See you later. Let's go, Uniswan."

We all waved as the show girl flew away.

So, why do you guys think? Do you love it? Do you hate it? Should I change something about it? Should I have a beta-reader to help me out? Review and let me know please! You're reviews will be so appreciated that I will read, reread, and analyze each and every single one as if I am reading a good piece of literature for my AP class.
