Chapter 1: First meetings
It was a cold day in January. January 9th to be exact. The day my Pokémon journey would finally begin. Ever since my brother left home five years ago I had wanted to be just like him. Now I want to show everyone that I can be better than him. My name is Josh, 10 years old, I live in pallet town and this is my story.
I awoke that day to my mom telling me to come down stairs. Apparently there was a surprise waiting for me and boy was I surprised. For standing there was my big brother saying happy birthday. I was ecstatic I haven't seen him in five years.
"You didn't think I wouldn't be here to see you on the day you start your journey did you" said Jason.
"I have to admit I was doubtful after all your duties as the champion of all five regions has kept you busy enough to miss four of my other birthdays" I said to him.
He just looked sheepish. "Well I better make up for it" he said.
Then he went into another room and told me to follow. When I got there my eyes when wide for sitting there was gifts I would never forget.
"Here you go josh a pokegear from Johto, five pokeballs to start, and new backpack (AN: like the Johto male hero)", and there being handed to me by Jason's first Pokémon, Kurama, was a premier ball and I just knew it held a Pokémon.
"Go on josh take it and show us you're first Pokémon" Jason said. So I did just that.
As I through the premier ball it burst open and a red beam of energy shot out.
And there it was my first Pokémon.
It looked like a small jackal. It had blue and black fur with a little yellow around its neck. Along with metal pads on the top of its hands.
I quickly grabbed my new pokedex and scanned it.
#447 Riolu, Female, ability: Justified, height: 2'04", weight: 44.5lbs, nature: rash, It uses the shapes of auras, which change according to emotion, to communicate with others. Current moves: quick attack, foresight, endure, blaze kick (egg move).
"Wow jay you really got me a riolu as my first Pokémon" I said.
"Yeah I believe you can bring out the full potential of her" Jason stated.
I walked over to riolu "hi there I'm josh I hope we can work well together".
She sniffed my hand and then smiled while jumping up to my shoulder and nuzzling against my cheek.
I smiled and obliged. "Ok josh I'm sorry but I have to leave champ obligations and all that" Jason exclaimed.
"I understand I will see you later, bye". I stated
"Well then goodbye" and then he left.
"Well mom I guess this is it it is finally time to start my Pokémon journey, goodbye" I said
"Good bye sweetheart I wish you the best of luck and remember if you are ever tired you can comeback home and rest" said my mother.
I turned to riolu. "Well before we go I should give you a nickname huh".
"I would like that" she said happily.
I was about to freak out thinking I had gone crazy when I remembered that riolu an lucario can project their thoughts and feelings through aura.
"That's right you can alow me to hear your thoughts, ok now for a name" I started to think.
"Josh if I may suggest how about reiki I have heard your brother often speak about it" Riolu said.
"Hmm yea reiki will work perfectly for you, ok from now on your name is reiki" And so we both left the house and started down the road towards route 1. After walking for a few minutes reiki spotted something to the west, I looked and some some kind of small mouse.
I pulled out my pokedex and scanned it. #19 Rattata, Male, Ability: Guts, height: 1', weight: 7.7lbs, nature: Adamant, It searches for food all day. It gnaws on hard objects to wear down its fangs, which grow constantly during its lifetime. Current moves: Tackle, Tail Whip, Quick Attack
"Well reiki what do you say we try to make a new friend". "Yay lets do it " seems she agrees.
"Alright reiki hit him with a quick attack" rattata was hit of guard so it slid across the ground very easy; I threw one of my pokeballs. One shake, two, but it was not ment to be as the pokeball burst open releasing rattata and it ran off.
"Well you win some you lose some" I said
"I am sorry josh" reiki said
"Hey it isn't your fault it's mine I threw the ball too early so cheer up we will get the next one"
As we make our way we see a city about a quarter mile in front of us I know this to be viridian city.
We got to the city and made it to the pokemon center. I recalled reiki and allowed nurse joy to take her pokeball. I was given a room and was told reiki would be ready by the morning.
