Prologue
You hear a lot of things about soulmates. You hear a lot about how soulmates usually come about, but one of the most common ones that pop up around the world is this:
It is said that when a soul descends on the earth, it splits into two halves, each half inhabiting a separate body. Both of these bodies will there forth never feel complete until they have found the other half, or, their 'soulmate.'
Let me tell you a little secret. This isn't true. It's a nice idea, sure. But still untrue.
I made souls, after all. And there are different kinds of souls – just like there are different types of pokémon. I'll try to explain to you how they work. Let's start with the average soul. It may be difficult to keep up, so I'll try to keep it simple.
You see, souls are tiny compared to the creatures of the earth. Before they 'split,' a soul is probably the size of an apple. And the soul doesn't split into two halves, it divides itself into multiples parts, sometimes hundreds. But there is always one slightly larger fraction of the soul, which we'll call the main soul. This part goes to the host – a human, for example. The other parts of the soul - which we'll call secondary souls - seeks out and plants itself into other bodies. The average person/pokémon will have a main soul, and around 50-100 secondary souls. If someone with a secondary soul comes into contact with someone that has the same kind of secondary soul, they are likely to become friends. If someone with a secondary soul comes into contact with the holder of the main soul, they are very likely to become very good friends. And these people are soulmates.
And that's only the average soul. It's part of the basic soul family. In this family of souls, there are five different kinds of souls. There are three different families.
As time goes on, and you learn about more and more of the souls, what I have said now might not make sense. Some of the things I say may appear to contrast eachother. Make one another impossible. It's okay, though. It'll all make sense in the end.
Just remember that souls are important. Souls control everything.
Absolutely everything.
Even the life of someone as ordinary as a pokémon trainer.

Authors note: Not a great introduction for the story, I know. Chapter one will be a lot better, it's alright. There will be more story than an unknown character's view on what a soul is. When that chapter comes out depends on how many OCs I get within the week, if any at all. I hope I get some! If you are submitting an OC, remember to PM me the form and not to put it in the review section. Until next time, see ya!
