Pokémon Black and White
I've been playing the game and well I figured I might as well start one on this region too and I will eventually post on Trinity's World of Pokémon. For this story I will be using the trainers given on the games as only Bianca has made an appearance on the anime last time I checked. Instead of either boy or girl being the main character I've decided to used both black and white and for the sake of not having their names as colors I'll just do what I've seen people do, change their names. White will be Whitney (Winney) and Black will be Blake. Those dreaded names Hilda and Hilbert will refer to Whitney's mom and Blake's Dad ok?
Pikachu: Pika pi?
Me: omg pikachu…I love you –cuddles-
Pikachu: chuuu…
Me: Ok, I know…disclaimer. I do NOT own pokemon, if I did I would have made Ash age eons ago.
"Talking"
'Thoughts'
"Pokémon Language"
"Whitney you need to wake up dear your friends have gone on their journey hours ago" Hilda called to her daughter from down stairs.
It was then Whitney had sat up her blue eyes wide in realization "Ugh I over slept" she jumped out of bed and proceeded to wash up and change into her clothes which consisted of shorts a white shirt and a black vest, a white hat with a pink pokeball symbol followed by pink black back pack to hold her items in.
'Some friends I have, Cheren would have at least wait up for me' she got down stairs and started eating her breakfast. "Why didn't you wake me mom?" I asked her as I ate my toast and eggs.
"I did, three times…guess third time is the charm" she said with a laugh.
"Now all the pokemon are probably gone now" Whitney said with a sigh.
"You know Professor Juniper keeps a lot of starter pokemon in stalk just in case. Just hurry up to the lab ok, do you have your Xtransceiver?" her mom called as her daughter got up.
"Got it" she held her arm out and it was black and red watch like device with a screen on it. "I'll see you later ok" she called as she headed out the door.
"I can't believe Bianca and Cheren…leaving me while they go off to get their pokemon" Whitney frowned as she walked to see the Professor. She sighed when she remembered that they had planned to meet up at a certain time and she missed it. "Curse you sleep…so wonderful and eye capturing" she muttered before she approached one of the larger buildings of Nuvema Town.
"Awesome! Thanks Professor!" A boy ran out, passing Whitney before she had the chance to see who he was or even open the door to the lab.
"Guess there goes another pokemon…better hurry before I don't get a pokemon" she said and went inside. There was a lot o machinery in the lab and people in lab coats doing research or keeping track of the pokemon that trainers send to the professor.
"There you are Whitney I was wondering if you would ever get here" Professor Juniper said as she young girl came in.
"Sorry over slept."
"No worries I'm down to my last 2 of the day so you got lucky. A trainer just got Tepig so you only have-" she let's out one pokeball and a Snivy came out and followed by Oshawott. "Snivy and Oshawott to pick from" She said finishing her statement.
Snivy was a bit shy and clutched at it's leafy tail. Oshawott was energetic and his eyes sparkled in eagerness as he stared at Whitney.
"They are both so cute…but I choose Oshawott" Whitney said.
"YES!" it jumps up and down happily before jumping into her arms and climbing up onto her back where it rested on top of her hat.
"I think that's a good choice, here are your pokeballs and your pokedex" Juniper hands her the items which Whitney accepts happily, glad she didn't miss her chance on getting a pokemon.
"Now go on out there and have an adventure" Juniper said happily as Whitney heads out.
"Don't worry I will" she said and Oshawott waved as he left with his new trainer.
Just as she goes outside her Xtransceiver beeps and she looks at the screen and it hitting the button the screen divides into two separate images of Bianca and Cheren. "Winney there you are we've been trying to contact you for awhile now" Cheren said and a Snivy was resting on his shoulder.
"Yea but when you didn't answer just got our pokemon. And oh my gosh you got a cute little Oshawott" Bianca squealed and held her Tepig up so that we could see it. "I got a Tepig" she said smiling.
"I'm very hurt you guys left me…you guys know I love sleep one of you could have woke me up because mom is impossible" she said narrowing her sapphire eyes at them.
"We're sorry, I just had to get on out before dad made me stay" Bianca said and they knew how her dad worried and fussed over Bianca since they were kids. That was mostly because of Bianca's clumsy and ditzy nature, she would always get lost and trip over flat ground and so lately her dad was trying to make her stay and not go on a pokemon journey.
"So much for us traveling together" Whitney said and pushed the button to end the transceiver and sighed. She had really hoped the three of them could travel together because the three of them had been together since they were little kids.
"Darn it that stupid Patrat got away." Whitney turned to see a boy with brown hair with a red and white cap with a black blue jacket and black pants with sneakers. Beside him his Tepig looked defeated as he was unsuccessful.
Whitney then realized who this trainer was, it was Blake. She had known him for a long time because of her mom and his dad being friends. However when Blake moved away Bianca and Cheren came into her life and the three of them became friends and it was only last year did Blake move back with his dad. However with so many years of them not seeing or hearing from each other it was awkward seeing each other again.
"Have trouble Blake?" Whitney asked deciding to see if she can help out in anyway.
"Oh hey Whitney, just can't seem to catch a patrat. They run before I can even throw the pokeball" he said rubbing the back of his head.
"Maybe you aren't weakening it enough and your Tepig has to move fast because some pokemon would rather run then fight…you just need to get that one pokemon who's willing to battle" Whitney said to him.
"I guess so…so I saw those two buddies of yours leave town earlier today…how come you didn't go with them?" he asked. Oshawott jumped down and greeted his old friend as it was the same Tepig he was with in the lab.
"Ah I overslept and they kinda went on ahead. I'll catch up to them eventually" Whitney said trying not to be too angry again as she had talked to them on the Xtransceiver not long ago.
"Ah, in the mean time would you like to come with me? I haven't gotten the hang of battling yet apparently and you seem to know what to do" Blake asked and glanced at their pokemon who were chatting happily. "Our pokemon seem to be getting along too" he added.
Whitney looked from him to their pokemon. 'He's still so nice to me…even though he put up with them ignoring him for a year and me barely talking to him…he was my first friend after all…' she thought about it for just a moment. "Ok that sounds like a plan" she said to him and his brown eyes lit up enthusiastically.
"Alright, let's do this Tepig, we will catch a pokemon this time" he said with determination and his pokemon happily agrees becoming as enthusiastic as his trainer.
A they walked on Route one the leaves rustle and out comes a Lilipup and it barked at them and got into a battle position.
Blake points his pokedex at Lillipup and gathers information on the pokemon.
"Alright Oshawott ready for your first battle" she said and the pokemon jumps down ready for battle.
"Aww I wanted to try again" Blake muttered but decided to watch.
"Alright Oshawott water gun" a jet of water collides with the pokemon as it tries to dodge to avoid the attack.
Lillipup comes in for a tackle and when Oshawott dodges out the way it bit its tail.
"AHHH" the little pokemon yelped as its tail was being bitten.
'So it knows bite' "Alright shake it off buddy" she tells him and Oshawott used its tail to hit it against a tree where the pokemon finally lets go, shaken up from the impact it took.
"Water gun" and Oshawott shoots a final jet of water at the pokemon who collapses on the ground again and it still tries to get up.
"It's a stubborn one that's for sure, a fighting spirit!" Blake said not sure if it should encourage it to keep battling or give up so it can be captured.
The pokemon faints, too tired to continue "Go Pokeball" Whitney tosses her first pokeball and soon it sucks in the pokemon and the ball wiggles and the light blinking at the center. When it stops she picks up the pokeball. "I we caught a Lillipup. Good job Oshawott" she said and the water pokemon was happy it won its first battle and hugged it's legs happily.
"That was awesome" He said getting excited by the minute. "Now I have to capture a pokemon" he said with excitement.
Sure enough another patrat came out pausing as it saw the two trainers.
"Quick now's your chance" She said to him.
"Alright use ember let's go" Blake called out and his Tepig blew a stream of small embers from his nose at the patrat who dodged and charged for a tackle. "Use tackle too" Blake said. Tepig scrapped his feet in the dirt before charging at full speed and the two collided into each other head on and trying to push the other back.
"Ember let's go buddy!" Blake yelled seeing an opportunity now that Patrat was close up. Another stream of embers came and collides into the pokemon sending him back. And it charged again for another tackle. Tepid shot out a gust of smoke through it's nose, ready for the challenge.
"Dodge and use tackle again" Blake said and Tepig jumped as the patrat came close, landed on it's back to push it to ground and leaped a few feet away and charged in for another tackle while it was still trying to get up and it was a successful hit. Patrat had fainted.
"Alright! Go Pokeball!" Blake threw the pokeball and it landed and the red beam sucked it into the ball before it landed on the ground and wiggled around a little bit, red light blinking slowly before it stopped, signaling it's capture.
"Alright I got a Patrat!" he exclaimed and his Tepig shoots out a puff of smoke through it's nose, happy to win a battle.
"Glad you caught your first pokemon Blake" Whitney said and was surprised when he grabbed her hand and shaking it.
"Thanks to you, you built up my enthusiasm and it rubbed off on us and it gave us the motivation we needed to get our first pokemon." He said happily.
"It was nothing really…I don't think I done all that Blake" she said turning pink in embarrassment as she used her free hand to rub the back of her head.
"You really do encouraged me, even back when we were younger. I remember you being straight forward and just doing it even if you messed up where I could easily get discouraged" he said remembering way back when they were like 4 years old.
Whitney just smiled happy she could make a difference. "Come on Blake…we have a bit of a walk before Accumula Town" she said and she watched him break into that familiar smile that she had always seen as a kid before nodding and running ahead.
"Race you there" he said with his Tepig running behind him.
"Hey no fair, let's go Oshawott" she said picking up her pokemon and running after them.
They had made it to Accumula town, both of them completely out of breath from racing each other.
"I win" he panted, hunched over as he gathered his breath.
"Only because you ran ahead like 3 feet before saying we were racing" Whitney remarked, completely tired.
"Hey it's the pokemon center. Let's go and rest and heal our pokemon" he said and the two head into the pokemon center.
"Hello how may we help you" a nurse joy asked with an Audino wearing a nurse cap on its head.
"Oh we would just like for you to heal our pokemon" Blake said.
"Alrighty just leave it to us" Nurse Joy said and once Blake and Whitney returned their pokemon she took their pokeballs to be healed.
"Winney there you are" Whitney turned and it was Bianca coming over to them along with Cheren who just ignored Blake all together before turning to Whitney.
"Hey guys. I thought you guys would wait on me" she said to them.
"I'm sorry ok…what's important is that we are back together now." Cheren replied adjusting his red framed glasses. "And what were you doing with him anyway?" he asked glancing at Blake who left their group a long time ago to wait on his pokemon.
"While you guys left me I ran into him trying to catch a pokemon. I kind of showed him with a battle between me and a pokemon and then we've been racing till we made it to town, that's probably how I caught up to you" Whitney explained.
"So will you be traveling with us now?" Bianca asked.
"If he comes too, he;s really energetic and give you motivation" Whitney replied.
"No way, it has to be just the three of us" Cheren said stubbornly.
"Look he was my friend too long time ago. I'm tired of making me choose all the time" Whitney said before standing up and perfect timing Nurse Joy's Audino came back holding their pokeballs.
"Thank you" they both tell it and it happily leaves to help Nurse Joy.
"Hey I thought you were going to leave with your friends" Blake said looking at her.
"I just…well decided that if you'll have me I'll travel with you...besides you may need me" Whitney said pointing out his lack of knowledge.
"Hehe sure then, welcome to the team" he said holding his hand out which she accepts, his face in a big smile.
Whitney felt bad saying that to Cheren but Blake was her friend too even if it was a long time ago and was tired of avoiding Blake for Cheren's sake. She had decided to use this journey as a way to get to know Blake again. She was a little sad to see Bianca and Cheren had left already but decided it's better this way.
When they left the pokemon center they spotted a group of weird people in solver like knight armor surrounding a guy with long grey-green hair wearing weird robes.
"My name is Ghetsis. I am here representing Team Plasma. Today, ladies and gentlemen, I would like to talk to you about Pokémon liberation." Said the guy in the robes and the people of the two were murmuring, all curious as to what was going on.
"I'm sure most of you believe that we humans and Pokémon are partners that have come to live together because we want and need each other. However... Is that really the truth? Have you ever considered that perhaps we humans... only assume that this is the truth?" Ghetsis continued much to Blake and Whitney's surprise.
"What on earth is he saying?" Whitney asked she couldn't believe he would say such things.
"Of course it's the truth" Blake said beleiving pokemon and humans are partners.
"Pokémon are subject to the selfish commands of Trainers... They get pushed around when they are our 'partners' at work... Can anyone say with confidence that there is no truth in what I'm saying?" Ghetsis challenged and the towns people broke into conversation.
Whitney took a moment to think, yes we used them for battles but the bond between trainer and pokemon are strong. She as angry that someone would say people treat pokemon anything other than friends.
"You're wrong!" Cheren called out from the crowd "I've only started my training but I never mistreated my pokemon. And people and pokemon can work together to bring out each other's fullest potential" Cheren said and I couldn't have thought of any other way to put it. 'Leave it to Cheren to find the perfect words.'
The crowd murmured in agreement at the trainer's words.
"How do you know if battling is what the pokemon desires? All pokemon were free only to be suddenly captured and forced to fight for selfish humans" Ghetsis exclaimed.
"We must liberate the Pokémon! Then, and only then, will humans and Pokémon truly be equals. Everyone, I end my words here today by imploring you to consider the relationship between people and Pokémon... and the correct way to proceed. We sincerely appreciate your attention." He continued before Cheren could come up with anything else to say. When ending his speech his followers surround him and they all walk off together, their steps in unison.
As the crowd dispersed Whitney tried to look for Cheren but couldn't and she sighed figuring he took this time to go off on his own or with Bianca now that she refused to travel with them.
"That guy was messed up in the head for sure. No way humans abuse pokemon. They are our friends, I know my Tepi is he said letting out his pokemon who looked around for battles.
"No battle here buddy you can just relax" he said.
"That's right Oshawott is my friend too and I feel like I would never want to make it do anything it doesn't want to" Whitney said and just then the Oshawott in question came from it's ball and jumped onto her shoulders.
"Friend!" he nuzzles her cheek affectionately.
"I think your Oshawott really likes you. Not that I blame him" Blake said laughing making her rub her head a light blush coloring her face at his compliment.
"Your pokemon…they are speaking."
Whitney and Blake turn to see a guy who looked a bit older than them. He had long teal green hair held in a pony tail wearing a black and white cap. He had a white shirt over a tighter fitting black shirt with khaki pants and dark green sneakers. Hie grey eyes were deep and intensely looking at them.
"Our pokemon?" Blake asked looking down at his Tepig who was staring at the mystery guy. He also looked to Oshawott who was also looking at the mystery guy.
"Yes…they tell me you Are Whitney and Blake and that they've only been traveling with you for a short time" He tells them.
Whitney looks at her pokemon and back at him "Who are you anyway since you know who we are?" she asked.
"My name is N. And do you not believe that man Ghetsis?" he asked holding out a pokeball. "Are pokemon really happy this way?" he asked in wonder.
"How can you say that when you have a pokemon?" Blake asked and N looked at him for a moment.
"Your pokemon…speak highly of you…Your Tepig says he likes your energy and believes you can make him find his inner energy and be strong" He said to him and turns to Whitney. "Your Oshawott…he adores you and already feels a connection with you even when you only battled once…he says…it feels right when he battles at your side" he said his grey eyes locking on her blue ones.
"Wow you mean it Tepi?" he asked looking at his pokemon who smiled when looking back up at his trainer.
Whitney looked to her Oshawott and took him from her shoulder and held him in her arms. "You really think that Oshawott?" she asked unable to believe this was true.
"Yes, I want to continue to fight alongside you!" he happily confirms this actually surprised someone understood his thoughts like N could.
"Wow…that's an amazing gift you have N" Whitney said to him.
His grey eyes soften for just a split moment before coming serious again "Let's test how good you battle Whitney, let's have a battle" he said tossing out his pokeball and out came a Purrloin.
"Hey why don't you battle me?" Blake asked.
"Her pokemon feels the stronger connection to its trainer. Therefore I only want to battle her. Though if you fail to win you have to let your pokemon go, it's unfair to keep them this way" he said.
"Whitney you can't…if you lose you lose your pokemon" Blake said.
"Then we just won't lose, go Oshawott!" Whitney called out her pokemon who jumped from her arms and onto the ground.
"Ah it's determined to win for you. Such a loyal pokemon…Purrloin use scratch" he said and the pokemon charges with its claws outstretched.
"Water gun let's go!" Oshawott used water gun just when it was close sending it back a few feet it gets back onto its feet and moves in for another scratch and this time Oshawott falls back, getting up again.
"Tackle" Oshawott ran in for a tackle and the cat pokemon dodged out the way and used furry swipes which Oshawott only managed to dodged the first blow before the onslaught of attacks.
"Oh no...Oshawott is tiring out" Blake said in concern.
"You can do it buddy water gun" Whitney called out hoping it could handle this battle. Slowly but surely it got up, determination gleaming in its eyes and shoot out a powerful watergun, hitting the purrlion and making it faint.
N smirks only slightly before returning his purrlion "You did well my friend" he whispered softly into the pokeball.
"You two have a great connection helping you win this battle" N said looking at Whitney.
"So why do you believe in what that crazy guy is saying when you have a pokemon?" Blake asked unable to understand the logic.
"Pokémon are my friends, and for that reason I will change the world for their sake" N said walking off.
Later on that day Whitney and Blake trained their newly caught pokemon till the sun was going down and the city lights were starting to turn on.
"Guess that's enough training for now" Blake said returning his Patrat.
"Yea let's go back to the pokemon center for the night" Whitney suggested returning her Lillipup.
When they returned they got their room for the night and headed on to bed.
"What a long day" Whitney yawned as she climbed into bed.
"I know…battling, and running around and training…and just so much going on" he said as he got into bed as well.
"I can't believe those guys today though…what was it Team Plasma and that Ghetsis guy is crazy to say we mistreat pokemon…" Whitney yawns again.
There was a long pause and Whitney turns over so that she can sleep after thinking Blake fell asleep.
"Whitney."
"Hm?"
"I'm really glad you decided to stay with me" he answered softly, surprising Whitney greatly. "I honestly thought I may never get the chance to change things between us and become your friend again" he added.
"I know…sorry it took so long" she said to him feeling that this was the right thing to do. "From this day on we will be partners" she muttered before yawning again. "Goodnight Blake" she told him, unable to keep her eyes open any longer.
"Night…Winney" he said as he too drifted to sleep, signaling the end of a long hard day as trainers.
So there you have the first chapter of Pokémon Black and White. Next chapter on out I think I may do First person for the remainder of the fanfiction.
