"Excuse me Professor are you here?" A boy with black hair wearing a red jacket over a black t-shirt with dark blue jeans and white sneakers entered Professor Oak's Laboratory and looked to see the Middle aged man setting up three Pokeballs.

"Oh hello Nile! I was just setting up the Pokeballs for you and the other kids to choose. So who will it be?"

"I already know." Nile smiled and picked up the middle Pokeball and opened it making a Charmander appear laughing. "I choose Charmander."

"Char, Charmander." Charmander hopped into the boy's arms and hugged him making Oak smile.

"Ah he's sure taken a liking to you. Let me go get your Pokedex and Pokeballs." Nile then looked out the window to see the backyard full of Pokemon making him smile knowing who their owner is.

"Hey Professor, how's Ash?"

"Ah you know, he's Kalos Champion now and he's currently here in Kanto. Last I heard of him, he was on his way to Pewter City." Oak said as Nile smiled at the pokemon and waved to Bulbasaur making him wave back. "Here you go. Be careful out there, you never know what will happen." Oak handed Nile an indigo Pokedex and five Pokeballs. Soon after saying his goodbyes to the Professor, the two headed out with Charmander walking happily alongside the boy.

"Hey Charmander you ready to have some fun?" Nile asked his partner who looked at him and nodded as they left Pallet Town watching Pidgey and Pidgeotto fly through the air.


"Getting dark huh?" The two entered Route 2 after leaving Viridian City to stock up on Potions and necessities and saw the sun beginning to set making Charmander laugh. "I guess we can reach Pewter City before midnight or would you prefer camping out here tonight?" As they walked on, the two heard a rustling in the bushes making Charmander get ready to fight. But as he was ready to attack the bushes, a boy and girl Nidoran fell out hurt making Nile run over to them. When he lifted the two up, he noticed the male Nidoran was a lighter color and the female was a darker color surprising the two of them. "I think we should go back to Viridian City and have Nurse Joy check them out."


"Are they alright?" Nile asked as he and Charmander watched Nurse Joy walk over to them in the lobby.

"Yes they're quite alright. You know they don't have trainers right?"

"They don't? But they're shiny right?"

"Definitely. You see, male Nidoran are a nice shade of purple while their shiny counterparts are a light shade of purple, nearly pink. Female Nidoran are a light shade of blue while their shiny counterparts are a darker blue." Nurse Joy explained taking out a small book and showed the boy and Charmander a photo of normal and shiny Nidoran. "How did you find them?"

"They were hurt when we found them in Route 2. If you want I can take them back myself and save you the trouble."

"That would be great. Be careful especially since they might have been running from poachers. Let me go get them." Nurse Joy walked away leaving Charmander to start acting goofy to entertain his trainer. But it was soon cut short by Nurse Joy yelling making the two run to where her scream came from. When they arrived, they saw a hole in the wall two men wearing black suits with a red R on them throwing the Nidoran and other Pokemon in a cage while another tied up Nurse Joy and her Chansey.

"HEY! GIVE THEM BACK!"

"Buzz off twerp."

"Char! Charmander!"

"Take care of him: ZUBAT!"

"You as well: RATTATA!" The two men throwing the Pokemon in a cage threw two Pokeballs towards Nile making a Rattata and Zubat appear.

'This is my first battle ever...Ash once told me that a trainer never gives up even when the odds are against him, he never gave up and he became Kalos Champion.' Nile closed his eyes and began to remember his conversation with Ash before he had gone to Kalos. He smiled and opened his eyes making Charmander run forward. "AND I'LL BE THE KANTO CHAMP! CHARMANDER USE SCRATCH!"

"Dodge it." Zubat and Rattata jumped out of Charmander's way as he tried to attack them, but he instead attacked the lock on the cage making the Nidoran attack it as well. When they did, the door broke open and all the Pokemon jumped out with the Nidoran running to Nile and Charmander.

"Good to see you guys are okay."

"Nidoran, Ni."

"Alright then. NIDORAN USE PECK ON RATTATA! CHARMANDER SCRATCH ON ZUBAT!" Charmander scratched Zubat and Nidoran hit Rattata with it's horn making them fly into their owners. "Let me see something...alright. NIDORAN DOUBLE KICK!" Nile took out his Pokedex and saw Nidoran 's moveset and she kicked Rattata twice sending him into Zubat knocking them out.

"Y-You twerp!"

"Chaaar. CHAR!" The three men tried to run at Nile but Charmander shot embers at them making them go backwards getting hit by the attack.

"That was ember! CHARMANDER EMBER!" Charmander fired the attack again making them go into their truck as Officer Jenny arrived.


"Time for you guys to go back home." The four were back on Route 2 with Nile putting the Nidoran on the ground. But they stayed put making Charmander laugh. "What's wrong you guys?"

"Ni, Nidoran."

"Charmander." Charmander went into Nile's pocket and pulled out two Pokeballs making him smile.

"Alright. GO POKEBALL!" Nile enlarged the Pokeballs and threw them into the air making the Nidoran jump up and into them making them go inside the Pokeballs and fall into Nile's hands as they moved until they were successfully caught. "Cool, I got two Nidoran." Nile smiled looking at his Pokeballs and put them in his pocket as Charmander jumped on his shoulders and they began to walk confidently towards Viridian Forest. 'Just you wait Ash, I'm coming after you.' He looked up seeing a vision of Ash's back facing towards him and he began to run making Charmander laugh and point forward. 'But who were those guys back at the Pokemon Center last night?'


"Giovanni sir, we encountered a problem getting those special Nidoran you requested." Giovanni the leader of Team Rocket finished petting his Persian as one of his grunts walked in to deliver the bad news.

"You mean the two Shiny Nidoran that when evolved will become a perfect Nidoking and Nidoqueen? What went wrong?"

"Well according to our troops currently in the Viridian City prison, a boy with a Charmander stopped them in the Viridian City Pokemon Center just as they were ready to bring them."

"I expected to hear you say Ash Ketchum."

"Sir what should we do? Send Jessie and James after him?"

"Those two are too incompetent to do a simple task. Let him go on, we'll meet him soon enough." Giovanni said beginning to stand up making his lackey nod and walk out leaving the man there growling. "I still have a Plan B. Time to set Plan A-Z-M into motion." The man looked out the window and began to laugh maniacally as in his head, the silhouettes of three Pokemon covered in Electricity, Ice, and Fire made him imagine all of Kanto bowing to him.
