"Welcome to the world of Pokemon. Have you ever dreamed of becoming a Pokemon trainer? Well now, this is your chance! Professor Cedar will be giving away free Pokemon for children eligible for a Pokemon License. Who will you get? Bulbasaur? Snivy? Rattata? Oshawott? Now, all sixteen of you children get into line to receive your Pokemon!" Professor Fern instructs, as the eagerly waiting children scramble into a single file line.
"Oh boy! I can't wait to see what Pokemon I will get!" Zoey, a ten year old from Harmelean Town exclaimed, being at the back of the line.
"Ha! Since you are at the back of the line, you will get the least valuable Pokemon!" Joanna, a bully, taunted her.
"Joanna, your stupid remarks don't affect me!" Zoey attempted to defend herself.
After a few minutes, it was time for Zoey to receive her first Pokemon. She was so excited, she was literally shaking. And finally, the time came. Professor Cedar handed the girl a black PokeBall, with two yellow stripes.
"Hey! Why did she get one in an Ultra Ball?" Harvy called out.
Professor Cedar tried to explain, "Well, we ran out of ordinary PokeBalls, so we had to use an Ultra Ball. But it doesn't mean anything really."
"My Chameleon would kick your Pokemon, what ever it is, butt!" Joanna grinned, as Zoey left the Pokemon Laboratory.
Zoey scuddled home quickly, so she could pack her bags for her ultimate journey. Becoming a Pokemon Trainer. As she walked inside her home, her two little brothers, Tim and Pete, hugged her, interested in what Pokemon she got.
"So, what Pokemon did you get sweetie?" Her mother curiously asked, sipping a cup of lemon flavoured tea.
Zoey shrugs, "I don't know yet. I will tell you once I find out myself! I'll be in my room upstairs if you need me!" she dashed up her stairs, and ran over to her room.
She was just so ecstatic about receiving a PokeBall. She lifted up the ball, and prepared herself for the ultimate moment.
"Pokemon! I choose you!" Zoey threw down the ball, and out came a Pokemon, with different shades of green, a small tail, tusks from his mouth, and a long like horn coming out from his head.
"Oh my gosh!" she squealed. "It's an Axew! And it's so adorable!"
She was just about to leave her room to tell her mother the good news, but first tried to get Axew inside it's PokeBall! After five minutes of useless attempts, she called up her dad to help her out with the situation.
"Ah." her dad smiled. "Here, read this information about PokeBalls on my PokeDex!"
A voice from the PokeDex explained that some Pokemon don't like to be confined inside PokeBalls of any kind, so they will just follow their master.
"So, that's why Axew won't get inside his PokeBall!" Zoey realised, and walked down her stairs to her mother, as her Axew followed from behind.
Her little brothers, along with her mother, watched the cute Pokemon look around the place in joy. Tim and Pete laughed in joy.
"So, it's an Axew honey! But before you say anything, I know you are going on a journey to become a Pokemon Traine." Her mother began. "It's quite obvious, so while you were out at the lab, I packed you a bag with the necessary clothes, some rations and a few little knick knacks in there. I also gave you some money, and a few PokeBalls to get you started. Me and your father are extremely proud of you honey!"
Zoey smiled, "You really did this for me? I love you two so much! I will not let either of you down! And I am a girl who stands by her word!" She hugs her mother.
Her father chuckled, "Especially that time you said you'd clean under your bed! Man, that was a huge mess!" He sarcastically laughed, and his daughter softly punched him in the arm. "Anyway, I also want you to have my sixth generation PokeDex! It will tell you everything you need about the Pokemon you want!"
"Wow! Thanks dad!" Zoey hugged him. "Well, I'll be off on my journey! I will miss you both!" Zoey left the house.
Zoey lived in Harmelean Town, which is in the region called Morrow. It used to have very few citizens, but now it has grown into a huge district! Zoey was heading through a forest which leads to Aquifer City, where a local Pokemon Gym is located.
It's speciality Pokemon is Water, which shouldn't be too much of a problem. While Zoey was walking down the road, heading to the forest path, a friend of hers with the name of Adin blocked her path.
Zoey stared blankly at him, 'Uh, why are you blocking my path?"
"You. Me. Pokemon battle. Now!" He smiled. Zoey shook her head. "Come on, please?" he begged of her.
Zoey finally gave in, "Okay! Fine! But don't go too hard on me, okay?"
Adin pulled out a PokeBall, and threw it in the air, "Pidgey! I choose you!" The flying Pokemon emerged from it's PokeBall and soared through the sky.
"Axew! I choose you!" Axew jumped down from Zoey's shoulder, and prepared for battle. "Alright Axew! Use Tackle!"
The green Pokemon jumped in the air, and smashed Pidgey to the ground. Adin swallowed nervously, scared that he could lose the battle because of the strong Axew.
"Alright Pidgey, use Gust!" Pidgey blew Axew back away, as it used it's attack. Axew got back up, ready to continue.
Zoey smiled, 'Use your Dual Chop Axew!"
Axew attacked the Pidgey again, lowering it's health critically. The Pidgey dropped to the ground. Adin called out to it, trying to convince it to get back up.
"You can do it Pidgey! I know you can! Now use Quick Attack!" Adin commanded, and the bird dashed to Axew, and quickly attacked it.
Axew was thrown back again, and Zoey was unsure if it could continue in the battle. As it got back to it's feet, a bright light shined so brightly, everyone had to cover their eyes.
"What's happening?" Zoey curiously asks.
Adin is shown in joy. "That's my Pidgey! It's evolving into a Pidgeotto!"
"Axew! Attack Pidgeotto with Tackle!" Zoey commanded.
Axew tackled the recently evolved Pidgeotto to the ground, causing it to faint. As Adin made it return to it's PokeBall, Axew and Zoey cheered for their PokeBall. "You're not as bad as I thought Zoey. I'm going to Aquifer City Gym in hopes of getting a gym badge.
"Oh really? Because that is where I am heading!" Zoey explained.
"Mind if I join you?" Adin asked, and Zoey agreed.
The two walked over to the forest, leaving Harmelean Town. Their adventure would shortly continue.
