Beginning the Adventure: Showdown at Oak's Lab.
"My name is Winger" a young teen announces dressed in a grey nightshirt and pajama pants he was sitting on a window ledge hanging out of his bedroom overlooking the twilight Pallet Town "Tomorrow I begin my Pokemon journey, catching Pokemon, adventure, training, Pokemon battles and really wild things…I shall become the worlds Greatest Pokemon Master!" he declares loudly.
"Red!" an angry mothering voice from downstairs calls up to him "it's way past your bedtime" she nags "don't make me go up there!"
Winger loses his balance and falls back into his room with a thud "OK Mom" he calls back from his position on the floor, he sighs and rolls over "wonder if Ash or Gary's Mum nagged them on the eve of their Pokemon Adventure?" he muses to himself as he climbs back onto his feet.
He laughs to himself "then again they made it to the finals of the Pokemon league so what's to knock?" he stretches and yawns "time fer bed" he yawns again as he crawls into bed tangling himself up in his sheets "Gotta be the best" he mutters sleepily "be the best that I can be"
Dawn rises
The following Morning Professor Oak got up as usual fully prepared to care for the Pokemon stored at his lab while hopefully completing some work on his experiments, but today it was his duty as Pallet Town's resident Pokemon Prof to hand out a starter Pokemon to three newly appointed trainers. At least this time they'd either get a Bulbasaur, Charmader or Squirtle unlike poor Ash.
Blue reminded Oak of his own grandson in many ways, sure of himself, cunning, prideful and above all arrogant, still he had great potential. Green reminded Oak of Ash's friend Misty in some ways, she had a fierce temper, and yearned to prove herself as a trainer. Red reminded Oak of Ash in a way, they were both brash and overconfident but his heart was in the right place, who knows in a few years time…he could become one of the greats, they all could.
Winger awoke refreshed and ready to begin his epic adventure. He pulled on a worn Black T-shirt with a faded pokeball logo on the front, over which his favorite Fire Red Jacket went along with a matching pair of Red trousers, he brushes back his black scruffy bangs hanging over his Mystical Green eyes.
Racing through the kitchen and grabbing a bottle of fresh water and a slice of toast for the road, he paused merely to grab his backpack from the hall, with a potion and antidote already stored just in case, yelling a cheery and heartfelt goodbye to his mother from half way down the drive he sets of at top speed for oaks lab. Greatness waited for no man so he intended to run there as fast as his legs could go.
On the way over he overtook Green his best friend and not bas for a girl, her long and silky brunette hair went past her shoulders, she wore a yellow shirt with the monogram 'Teen Spirit' across her front along with a pair of green dungaree's, she sported a tomboyish air and glared at winger through Deep blue eyes as he passes by winking and waving back at her.
A short while later Winger leant against the gate in front of Oak's lab waiting for Green to catch up, eventually she strode up to him a livid expression on her face "If you were going to take the time to wait for me here why couldn't you have slowed down and walked with me!" she yells in his face Winger shrugs "if I'da walked the walk, you'd have talked the talk all the time" he claims smugly.
"Red!" Green takes a threatening step forward, Winger takes a sensible step back and winces "It's Winger" he insists bravely. "Your name is Red!" Green screams into his ear "Red, Red, Red!" Winger jumps back rubbing his ear "okay, okay! I'm sorry and it's Winger"
"Whatever" Green dismisses his objection with a wave of her hand "can we get our Pokemon now?" she asks Winger opens the gate allowing Green to go first he doff's an imaginary hat "after you milady"
"Call me milady once more and I'll break your nose" Green snaps back at him. Winger grins as he follows her hands behind head "definitely no lady" he comments.
Green swipes at him Winger dodges her fist and jogs up ahead "miss me, miss me, maybe you should kiss me" he teases her, Green blushes and runs after him.
Opening the front door Prof Oak interrupts Green's attempt to kill Winger "are you've arrived" he smiles warmly "in here" he leads them into a room filled with hi-tech equipment and shelves stacked high with pokeballs.
"Wicked" an awe struck Winger exclaims "whoa, all those Pokemon" gasps Green.
"Yeah it's pretty cool I guess" states Blue dressed in Jeans and a Navy Blue sweatshirt with Blonde spiky hair vivid Red eyes and an ever present smirk. He and Winger never could get along especially when they start competing against each other.
"Oh before I forget don't expect to get the best Pokemon" claims Blue twirling a pokeball between his fingers "first come, first served and I was here first" he states arrogantly.
"Good for you" Green ever the peacemaker at least between Winger and Blue congratulates him.
"Don't bank on it" winger mutters to himself.
"Now, now" Prof Oak intervenes holding out the two remaining Pokemons pokeballs "there are still two left"
"But which two?" Winger asks him. Green reaches out and swipes a ball at random "hey!" protests Winger "I choose you…" she throws the ball releasing a Green Pokemon with a bulb on it's back "Bulba!" it cries.
"Oh a Bulbasaur just what I wanted" gushes Green kneeling down she holds her arms out for Bulbasaur who jumps into her arms "I'm gonna take real good care of you OK?"
Blue snorts and rolls his eyes. Winger would have been in agreement if he didn't hate agreeing with Blue.
"And that leaves me with…?" Winger accepts the last pokeball from Prof Oak hesitantly releasing the Pokemon an orange/Red Lizard with a flame at the tip of it's tail "Charmander!" it cries. Wingers stoked "Ber-rilliant!" he exclaims "Just the 'mon I was hoping for, Char from here on in were partners you got that?" Charmander nods its head solemnly "great gimme five buddy" Charmander leaps up and winger slaps it's claw careful not to get hurt.
Green stands back up turning to Blue "then that must mean you got a…" Blue opens his pokeball releasing a small blue turtle Pokemon "Squirtle!" it cries happily.
"I told you I got the best" Blue smirks "I could take you in a pokemon battle any day" he claims.
"Ooh that sounds like a challenge" Winger faces of against Blue, Char faces of against Squirtle.
"Why not" Blue squares up to his rival "I could use a warm up match say for a hundred just to keep things interesting?"
"Sure" replies Winger "I love taking money of jerks like you" he smirks "your on"
"Oh dear" sighs Prof Oak giving in to the inevitable he steps back out of harms way. Green rolls her eyes "boys" she mutters disgustedly under her breath.
"Char…" calls out Winger, "Squirtle…" calls out Blue, "…Tackle attack!" they announce at the same time.
Charmander and Squirtle tackle each other both taking damage.
"Break the tie scratch attack!" Winger commands Charmander who scratches Squirtle whose shell absorbs some but not all of the damage.
"We've got to act fast" declares Blue "bubble attack" he commands Squirtle who blasts Charmander with bubbles that slam into Charmander causing it to cry out in pain.
"Charmander is a fire type Pokemon" Prof Oak explains to Green "it is vulnerable to water type attacks"
"Char!" Winger calls out to his Pokemon in concern "can you keep going?" he asks Charmander who struggles back on its feet "Charmander!" it cries determinedly nodding its head "okay then" decides Winger "try an ember attack!"
"Squirtle Withdraw and raise defense!" Blue commands his Squirtle as suddenly a minor explosion rips through the lab obscuring the scene in a cloud of smoke and sending pokeballs flying everywhere.
"What in the…"Prof Oak exclaims. Winger, Blue and Green glance around in confusion there battle forgotten.
"Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha" laugh a pair of villainess voices framed in a hole in the lab wall, mere shadows obscured in the smoke "prepare for trouble" a sinister female voice declares. "And make it double" a horse male voice declares.
"To infect the world with devastation" the female voice continues. "To blight all peoples within our nation" the male voice continues.
"To announce the evils of truth and love" declares the female voice. "to extend our wrath to the stars above" the male voice declares.
"Cassidy" the Female voice introduces herself as the smoke clears revealing her to be a young woman dressed in a black uniform emblazed with the red letter R. "Butch" the male voice introduces himself as a young man dressed in a black uniform emblazed with the red letter R.
"Team rocket encircling Earth all day and night" declares Cassidy. "Surrender to us now or you'll surely lose the fight" declares Butch. "Raticate!" cries a Raticate poping up between them.
"Who do you think you are?" growls Blue "Botch and Cassidy they told us" quips Winger "and you interrupted our battle" he adds taking on a darker tone.
"Go away little boy" sneers Cassidy "yeah" adds Butch "this is grown-up business" he claims patronizingly "were here for the Pokemon" Cassidy tells Prof Oak "so hand them over or else!"
"Your members of Team Rocket aren't you" Prof Oak accuses the villainess pair.
"Team Rocket?" asks Green.
"Criminals who steal Pokemon" Prof Oak grimly tells them "they run a black market in TM's and items, there influence stretches all around the world!"
"That's despicable" yells Blue "what a day, for once you and me agree on something" Winger growls through gritted teeth.
"Char Ember attack" Winger commands Charmander, "Squirtle Water gun attack" Blue commands Squirtle, Charmander and Squirtle prepare their attacks but they fail, collapsing with exhaustion they pant hard for breath.
"Huh?" gasps Winger.
"Their both exhausted from their battle" Prof Oak explains.
"Go Hitmonchan" Cassidy sends out a fighting type Pokemon with Boxing glove arms "Go Hitmonlee" Butch sends out a fighting type Pokemon with kick boxer legs.
"Comet punch" Cassidy orders Hitmonchan who punches Squirtle repeatedly sending it flying back, "Rolling kick" Butch orders Hitmonlee who rolls its kick into Charmander who is sent flying back.
"My Bulbasaur isn't tired" states Green "vine whip!" Bulbasuars vines entangle Hitmonchan and Hitmonlee "now use your razor leaf attack" she commands Bulbasaur who launches several leaf's at Raticate knocking it back.
Butch growls while Cassidy cackles, Butch starts to laugh as well. "I must admit I never expected to encounter much resistance but you'll have to do a whole lot better than that" Cassidy tells them.
"Break free of that vine whip!" Butch orders Hitmonchan and Hitmonlee struggle and strain, Hitmonchan breaks free first while Hitmonlee launches a stretched kick at Bulbasaur whose vines loose their grip on it allowing Hitmonlee to break free.
"Now Raticate finish it with your Skullbash attack" Cassidy orders her Raticate who lowers it's head which glows as it launches itself at top speed into Bulbasur slamming it a harsh blow knocking it out.
"Bu-Bulba!" a teary eyed Green cries out as she rushes to her Pokemons aide.
"There Pokemon have way more experience than our starters" he realizes "we never stood a chance"
"Were not beat yet" Claims Winger kneeling beside Charmander he stares at the pokeballs on the floor an idea forming in his mind. "But our Pokemon aren't strong enough" Green protests.
"Then we'll just have to use other Pokemon" states Winger snatching up three pokeballs he throws them releasing the Pokemon within.
First a giant purple sludge monster giving of a terrible smell "Muk!" it cries rearing up, secondly a giant orange crab Pokemon with a huge pincer "goking, goking!" it cries (a Kingler) and third a large bull like Pokemon with three tails it snorts and stamps its hoof's (A Taurus)
"Hey there not your Pokemon" protests Blue.
'Ash's pokemon' thinks Prof Oak a tight smile on his face 'it figures they'd find there way into this, it's in Wingers hands now'
"Try all you want to fight back" laughs Cassidy. "we'll just keep knocking you down" sneers Butch.
"Raticate superfang attack!" Casidy orders Raticate who shakes violently and chomps down on Kingler taking out half it's health in one go.
"Hitmonlee start kicking" Butch orders Hitmonlee who hammers away at Muk whose sludge body absorbs the hits quite well. "Hitmonchan use your Mega punch!" Cassidy orders Hitmonchan who punches Taurus with a glowing fist sending it staggering back.
Winger seethes "hey" he calls out to the Pokemon "your not going to take that lying down are you?" he asks "I know I'm not your trainer but you have to listen to me, we have to win this battle, we can't let them steal all the Pokemon, are you with me?"
Muk nos it's head "Muk, muk, muk, muuukkkk!" it cries. Taurus growls angrily at Team Rocket "Go-King" Kingler agree's.
"Great, now Kingler use Guillotine!" Winger Commands Kingler whose mandibles throth as it charges Raticate taking it out with a one hit KO. "Muk body slam that Hitmonlee!" Hitmonlee found itself trapped under muk's considerable bulk. "Taurus take down now" Taurus charges recklessly at Hitmonchan hitting it hard and dealing a lot of damage.
Raticate had fainted, Hitmonchan teeters and faints, Muk pulls itself up to reveal a fainted Hitmonlee.
"Blue, Green deal with Cassandra and Botch" Winger snaps his fingers at his fellow trainers who were glaring at the now offenceless Team rocket.
"It's Cassidy" snaps Cassidy out of reflex. "The name is Butch!" snarls Butch.
"Whatever" shrugs Winger.
"Squirtle" growls Blue, Squirtle perks up recovered from it's tiredness "bubble attack" Squirtle blasts Team Rocket with bubbles causing them to cry out in pain.
"Bulbasaur vine whip" Green commands her now recovered Bulbasaur who whips Team Rocket with its vines causing them to cry out in pain.
"Char use your flamethrower!" cackles Winger clearly enjoying himself perhaps a bit to much, Charmander opens its mouth and blasts team rocket with it's flamethrower.
"This isn't as easy as Jessie makes it seem" Cassidy coughs, "who knew losing could be such hard work" groans Butch as they both racked with pain.
"Okay Bulba use your sleep powder to finish them off" Green claps her hands as Bulbasaur unleashes a stream of pollen at Team Rocket who as they breath it in their eyes get heavy and they collapse into a deep sleep.
"Brilliant Team work Guys" Winger congratulates everyone.
"Go-King" cheers Kingler waving it's pincer in the air excitedly, "Muk, muk, muk, Muk!" cries Muk, Taurus bellows happily.
Prof Oak watches the proceedings with pride yes it seemed like the world of Pokemon was in safe hands with trainers like these exploring it.
Mid-afternoon
After Team Rocket are arrested by Pallet town's Officer Jenny. Winger Blue and Green are now ready to begin their journey. Prof Oak approaches them before they leave "it's a shame you never got the chance to finish your first Pokemon battle" he comments.
"Huh, we all knew me and Squirtle were gonna win" claims Blue arrogantly.
"Keep dreaming" Winger retorts "you an the Squirt never stood a chance"
"Still" Prof Oak interjects before another fight can break out "I feel you should have some kind of reward for your efforts in saving my lab and all the Pokemon" he held out fifteen empty pokeballs in his hands, five each "of course it's up to you to fill them of course" he laughs as Winger, Blue and Green accept their pokeballs "oh and in all that excitement I very nearly forgot" he reaches into his lab coat's pocket and pulls out three red handheld computers "your Pokedex"
"Pokedex huh?" Winger flips his open activating it "Pokedex Unit 1101749 assigned to Pokemon Trainer Red of Pallet town" it announces.
"Cool always wanted an ID Card…how do you change the date of birth?" he fiddles with the Pokedex "I am monitored to respond to the name Dexter" the Pokedex adds.
"It's a high tech Pokemon Encyclopedia" Prof Oak explains "it will instantly record data on any Pokemon you encounter"
"Neat" comments Green stowing her Pokedex away in her handbag.
"Could come in handy" comments Blue stowing it away in his back pocket.
"If your leaving pallet town you should head up Route 1" Prof Oak advises them "you can try to catch the Pokemon there"
"That's a point" Winger rubs his chin thoughtfully "If I'm going to travel all around Kanto I'm going to have to find my way around"
"That's easy" scoff's Blue "I have a highly detailed Map it shows every town and Pokemon Centre in Kanto, I'm not about to lose my way" he sneers.
"I suppose I could nip home and borrow my mother's Town Map" Green thinks aloud.
"Great" mutters winger "I don't have a map and my Mom hate's traveling…I know!" he snaps his fingers "I'll ask your sister to lend me a Map she'll have one" he tells Blue who scowls "nnggg I'll tell her not to lend you one" he runs of presumably towards his house with Winger in pursuit "like she'd listen to you" he yells after blue "she digs me"
"I'm not with them" claims Green before sighing and running after them "wait up already" she shouts after them.
Prof Oak anime sweatdrops "perhaps the world of Pokemon is not in such safe hands after all" he sighs.
