Burst: Hello! Welcome to the first chapter of my 1st Pokemon fanfic! First, I would like to say one thing. I understand its Pokémon not Pokemon, but chances are I'll rarely do it right. Now, allow me to say this: Let's get this party started!
Every generation after generation, a new legend is born. This is the story of Blake Hollow of Honeydew town and his friends as they travel across the Shizumi region fulfilling their dreams!
A trainer's beginning! I choose you!
The story begins in Blake Hollow's room. As it can be seen, he wore a red jacket over a white t-short and jeans. Like his Mom and brother, he had emerald colored eyes. (They will be introduced shortly.) Over his short but spiky black hair he wore a black cap with the image of a white Pokeball in the middle. He was nearly ready, but there was one problem. "Where the heck is my backpack?!" Blake yelled in frustration. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. "Come in Mom!" Blake yelled to the door. The door opened to reveal Amanda Hollow. She had real curly long brown hair than went down to her shoulders and wore an orange colored skirt. (To the perverts of the world, I didn't say mini, shut it!) "How did you know it was me?" She asked confused. "Since when do little brothers knock? Oh by the way, have you seen my backpack?" Blake asked nervously. "It's downstairs honey. I packed it with snacks and money. But let me get to my point. Could you please take your brother to the professor's lab? You know he loves it there." Asked Amanda. Blake sighed, but nodded. Amanda smiled at him and quickly left before he could change his mind. With another sigh, he left his room and knocked on his brother's door. "Come in!" A young boy's voice came. Blake opened the door to see his brother Dustin waiting for him to speak. Dustin was a small boy with straight brown hair that stuck up in the front. He wore a gray t-shirt and black shorts. On his head was his small friend Pichu, a small yellow mouse with flat diamond shaped ears. "Alright, alright. You can come." Blake said, doing his best to smile. "Thanks Blake! Thank you so much!" "Pi! Pi! Pichu!" Dustin and Pichu cheered. Blake's smile grew slightly more. "Guess its okay he's coming with me. After all, we share a love for Pokémon!" Blake thought to himself. The three ran down there stairs, to see two breakfast bars, a bag of Pokemon food, and a sticky note from Amanda on the kitchen table. The brothers quickly looked at the note. "I left this so you can eat on the go. Get to the lab across town quickly! Don't want to be rude! I'll be there as soon as I can, just need to pick some stuff up. Have fun! Sincerely, Mom." After reading the note, the two brothers quickly grabbed their food, and Blake grabbed his backpack, which was lying against a chair, and ran out of their house.
Later, Honeydew Lab.
"Hmph. Late as always." A cold voice answered as the brothers came in. The brothers noticed one of Blake's best friends, Evan Lumina. He had messy red hair going down to his ears, ice blue eyes, a navy blue jacket similar to Blake's over a brown shirt, and old looking jeans. Evan seemed cold, but he loved Pokemon as well and was very competitive. "Give me a break Evan. I had a little boy with me." Blake replied. "Hey! I'm not that little! I'm almost 6!" Dustin argued. Ignoring Dustin's remark, Blake and Evan continued talking. "Where is everyone?" Blake asked. "The professor is out on an errand. Holly on the other hand, went upstairs to grab something." Evan said pointed towards the stairs.
Just then, a young girl ran down the stairs. It was none other than Holly Rose, the daughter of . She had straight blonde hair going down to her neck, a tie dye t-shirt, and torn pants. In her hand she had a suitcase. She's been friends with the boys for a long time. Holly had a complicated personality. She can change from peppy to moody to crazy to angry very fast. She walked over to the three, and scratched Pichu behind the air, who was lying on Dustin's half asleep. "What's in the suitcase?" Blake and Dustin asked. "You'll see." Holly answered with a big grin. She walked over to a wooden table on the other side of room, and the boys followed. "Now I reveal to you, the Pokemon starters!" Holly yelled, opening the suitcase to reveal 3 Pokeballs. The brothers looked in awe, while Evan didn't seem impressed. "So are you going to give us the starters, or are we going to stare like half brained primapes for all of eternity?" He asked annoyed. Holly scowled at him. "Don't be so pushy. We'll get them when my Mom gets back. She should be back any min-""Honey I'm home!" Yelled , who just burst in. "That was fast." Everyone other than her said. had hazel eyes and blonde hair like her daughter, but her hair was tied back. She wore silver glasses, a lab coat, and camouflage colored shorts. "Can we get our Pokémon now?" Evan groaned. chuckled. "Sure." She said. She stood behind the table while everyone else stood in front. They all waited in suspense, staring at the Pokeballs. "Let the ceremony begin! First I'll give Blake Magby, the starter of fire, due to his fiery spirit deep inside!" The professor said, handing the middle sphere to Blake. "Alright!" Blake cheered. "Next, I'll give Spheal, the starter of water, to Evan, for his calm and cool nature!" handed the sphere on the right to Evan. "I'm sure we'll be good friends." He muttered. "Now, to my daughter Holly, for the knowledge you have and seek, I give you Budew, the starter of Grass." Rather than being handed it, Holly grabbed the last Pokeball herself. "Heck yeah!" Holly cheered, making the peace sign. "Finally, so he can begin his journey as well, here's a Pokeball for Pichu." reached into one of her coat's pockets and took out a Pokeball, which Dustin eagerly snatched out of her hand. Dustin held it above his head, and Pichu willingly head butted it, and it opened, revealing a red light that captured Pichu, and the sphere closed. "Yay! I get to be a trainer too!" Dustin cheered. Blake glared at , which caused her smile to fade. "I know what you're thinking, why is my little brother, who's only 5 years old, joining me on my journey? The answer is simple. Hold on." reached into her right pocket to reveal a letter. She read it out loud: "Dear Blake, I'm very sorry. I just couldn't face you. I support you with all my heart, but I couldn't see you leave. So, I've hitched a ride on a mail delivery bird Pokemon to get to Highbound City, where your father's Pokemon gym resides. He's invited me to stay. I wish you luck.
Sincerely,
Mom
P.S. Please take your brother with you. I don't want him to be home alone.
then closed the letter and smiled. Surprisingly, Blake just shrugged. "I guess it would nice to have my brother hanging out with me. Plus, he can watch me cream Evan! Go Magby!" Blake threw his Pokeball out and out came Magby. It was a small red Pokemon with stubby arms and legs with claws. It had a yellow belly and a tube like mouth. It had bump like hair on its head. "I knew you would do this. Go Spheal!" Evan sent out Spheal. Spheal was a round blue seal with white spots and a tan belly. "Mag Mag!" "Spheal!" The two Pokemon called out their battle cries. Dustin also let Pichu out and Pichu climbed onto Dustin's head. "Boys. Well I might as well let you watch. Go Budew!" Budew easily jumped into arms, knowing she was now her trainer, and recognizing her from when her Mom researched her. "This should be a good battle. Evan and Blake both know all of their starter's moves after visiting the lab often." thought to herself. "Magby use ember!" Blake commanded. Magby shot out blasts fire from his mouth at Spheal, who took the hit and cried out in pain. "No Spheal! Use Water gun!" Evan yelled. "Dodge it Magby and use smog!" Magby ducked and then released a cloud of gas from its mouth, surrounding Spheal. Panicked by the poison gas, Spheal was blasting water guns all over the place. Everyone but the 4 battling ducked behind furniture. Spheal kept on continuously blasted water guns, when two ended up hitting Magby, who was pushed all the way into Blake knocking the two down. To end the chaos, Evan grabbed a large fan and blew the gas away. Due to the poison and due to the berserk water guns, both Pokemon were worn out, which meant the battle was almost over. "Spheal! Finish with a water gun!" "Dodge and use ember!" Spheal shot out the best water gun he could, but to no avail. Magby had jumped in air and began shooting ember attacks. Magby landed on the ground and the two Pokemon panted with exhaustion, glaring at each other. The stare down only lasted a few seconds when Spheal rolled to the side, unable to continue. The two trainers praised their Pokemon, and then returned them. Dustin and Holly returned their Pokemon as well, and then Holly, Dustin, and ran over to them. "That was awesome!" Dustin cheered. "I'm impressed. I can't wait to see what Budew can do." "I agree. Now with me." The professor said, running over to her desk, the 4 following. She opened the top drawer and pulled out 5 Pokeballs for each of them, which they each put on their belts. Then, she handed them each rectangular devices. Blake's was Red, Evan's was White, Holly's was pink, and Dustin's was sky blue. "What are these?" Blake asked. "They are Pokedex, short for Pokemon encyclopedia. Each Pokemon you encounter, use these to obtain their data. You should see your Pokémon's data there. Try it!" The professor said. Obeying her, they each opened them up and look at the data. "Pichu, the tiny mouse Pokemon. The electric pouches on its cheeks are still small. They cannot store much electricity yet." ""Magby, the live coal Pokemon. Its body temperature is around 11,000 degrees. It's healthy if it's breathing yellow flames." "Spheal, the clap Pokemon. It rolls across ice floes to reach shore because its body is poorly shaped for swimming." "Budew, the bud Pokemon. Sensitive to changing temperature, the bud is said to bloom when it feels the suns warm touch." They said in robotic voices. "Wow. These babies will be helpful in Pokemon mastery!" Holly said, accidently showing her excitedness in a dorky way. "Alright then, there's still one last thing for me to do. But first, please go home and get whatever you need, if you haven't already." announced. "I'll go upstairs and get packed!" Holly said, running upstairs. "I have to help Dustin get ready!" Blake said. "I have to, um, get something at home." Evan muttered. Thus, the three boys left.
Later, back at the lab.
Everyone was back at the lab, except suspiciously, Evan, an hour and a half later. "Well we're here! I'm so excited!" Dustin said grinning. "This would explain why we took so many breaks." Blake muttered. "On another note, a less disgusting one, that jerk Evan skipped out on us." Holly grumbled. " "I kinda expected as much. Evan isn't much of a people person." Blake mentioned. "Well since Evan isn't coming, let's begin, starting with you Blake. Why do you want to go on a journey?" asked him. "My dream hasn't changed. I'm entering the Pokemon League!" Blake said. The Professor smiled and handed him a case with 8 spaces inside. "This is a badges case. You'll need to defeat 8 gym leaders and collect their badges to get to your goal! Now, why do you want to go on a journey?" asked, facing Holly. "Other than collecting Pokemon data, I want to be a Pokemon coordinator and enter the Pokemon Festival!" Holly exclaimed. handed Holly a case as well, this one with 5 spaces inside. "This will be your ribbon case. You'll enter many Pokemon contests, some won and some lost. Out of the many there will be, you must win 5 to get to the final stage. Now, I ask you Dustin, though I know you actually have little choice in the matter, what's your dream?" asked. Dustin smiled weakly. "I guess I don't have much of a dream. But I know for sure I'll be happy." He said. hugged her daughter and they all said goodbye, leaving together and admiring the sunset.
Burst: Whew! That was long. I'm not sure how good that was, but I'm not working on the next chapter till I get some reviews. Plus, my Kingdom Hearts fic needs some writing. Oh, and if you want to know why Blake was so cool with his bro coming, you'll learn later, though I'm not sure when yet. Adios!
