Pokemon and the skylord conspiracy.
A pokemon novel

My first book on fanfiction, be as harsh as you like, I need to know if i've got it wrong.

Chapter one: The new trainer.

Beep-beep-beep

"Five more minuites..." I mutter and hit the snooze button on the alarm. Then I remember what day it is, and sit up so quickly I give myself a headache. I head downstairs, eat the fastest breakfast i've ever had and dash back up to get dressed.
"Well well. Look who's in a good mood. Something happening today?" My sister Keira asks me. "Can't talk. Need to get to the lab-Out of my way cheeps!"
A large, fat torchic was snoozing in my bedroom doorway.
"Can't you find him somewhere better to sleep?" I ask my sister while pulling on a sock "Nope. He falls asleep and he's stuck. He isn't gonna move till lunchtime."
Cheeps was my sisters starter pokemon. She went for the cute one of course. However he turned out to have a muchlax's stomache, and soon he was the size of a medium dog. He also had a habit of setting the furnature on fire. My sister, who was 4 years older than me had had him for three years, and hadn't really trained him very well. "So, which pokemon are you going to start with?" Keira asked me.
"I don't know. They say Mudkip is the strongest verses nearly all of the gyms, but Treeko's are easier to train."
"Why not go for a Torchic like me?"
"Because on my journey i'll be in a tent, And you know what he was like when you went camping."
Keira blushed. "Not my fault he burned down half the campsite. We didn't realise Sam had trodden on his tailfeathers."
Sam was an old freind of our family. He was 11, One year older than me and was already out on his journey.
"Well, i'm come mum isn't here to see me off?"
"I don't think she could stand it. She said for me to tell you to put on clean underwear every day. Oh and you can come back any time."
"Nice. See you in a year or so."
She smiled.
"Yeah, hurry back. I could do with somebody to train Cheeps with."
I set of onto the short road to Littleroot town. Of course it wasn't much of a town anymore. More of a small city. Hoen had changed quite a lot. Lavaridge had been wiped of the map after Mount chimney erupted five years ago. Lilicove had felt the effects too, and had been barraged with rock and ash. It was still there but some horrible disease had flared up and the whole area was off limits. Slateport had merged with Muaville to create Maw cove. And Littleroot and oldale were almost full cities.
About an hour later I reached the outskirts of Littleroot. "Pheew" I whistled.
"This place sure is big."
I had never been in a city before. I lived in Outridge, a new town constructed about 10 years ago. It was similar, but less cramped. And greener.
I looked at the map on my pokenav. Although extremely outdated (It was my mum's when she was a co-ordinater) It had at least auto-updated itself.
The famous 'Birch labratories' Building was a short walk to the east side of Littleroot. All new trainers started there. The building was famous for it. Nearly any trainer in Hoen had been there once. The three starters you could choose from were Torchic,a fire type that vaugley resembles a chick. From what I knew, it was the hardest against the first gyms, but had a huge advantage against some of the hardest ones. Next was Mudkip, a water type swamp...dog-cat-thing. I didn't think there really was any way to describe it, but I knew it was overall the strongest against most gyms. Stats alone said it was the best one, but it did have the problem of being the slowest to increase power, and the hardest to teach powerfull moves. And last was Treeko, a grass type geko like creature. They are supposed to be the easiest to train and can learn powerfull moves like solarbeam. I pondered over my choice all the way to the center. I decided I would just try picking at random and hope for the best.
But when I reached the building I was surprised. There was a large crowd outside. Shoving through the crowd I reached the front. There were two scientist's there. One was Proffesor Birch, that much I could tell...But who was the other one?
"People, settle down, settle down" The other man anounced over the tanoy. "As you know, I have discovered a method of evolving any pokemon, at any time."
A cry of amazement came from the crowd. Me too. I knew evoloution could take a long time and would greatly increase a pokemons power as well as changing it's shape and sometimes type too. "My collegue Proffesor Birch will now demonstrate."
He pulled off a large cover on the table next to them. There was a device like a defribrilator, with two paddles attached to wires, and a pokemon I had never seen before. It looked like something from an old video game. It was angular, squat and bright pink with a blue nose,
feet and tail. I pulled out my pokedex and scanned it.

"Porygon. The digital pokemon. Porygon was created as part of an experemental project to create a man made pokemon. It is capeable of using almost all types of move."

That sounded like a strong pokemon. I wondered if you could find them wild, or just in labs.

I knew I wouldn't get my starter untill later, but I wanted to stay and watch the demonstration.
The proffesor took the two paddles, and placed them on porygon's back. "Stand back people. This will be bright so you may need to cover your eyes."
He pulled on some dark glasses.
The other proffesor did the same,then flicked a switch. Brilliant pure white light blazed down the wires and into porygon. A strange buzzing cry came from the creature, which had also started to glow. As the glow got brighter, I realised it must be in pain.
"Stop!" I yelled "You're hurting it!"
"Don't be ridiculous boy, evoloution does not hurt."
But I knew it was hurting it. The Porygon had started to warp. The shape was presumably changing under the light.
It let out a loud cry, and with a deafeaning BANG lightning shot out in all directions! The machine went up with a smaller boom, and the whole street was suddenly full of yells, fires and screams from those hit by it's bolts.
I don't know why I did it. But I do know now it was the right choice. I ran forward, gently lifted the smoking porygon, and ran. I heard crys, protests and yells but I kept running. I knew that that experiment had hurt it, I could just tell. I couldn't leave it.

About an hour later, legs screaming in pain, I stopped running and sat down on the bank of Littleroot river. The creature looked up at me.
It's look was strange. It looked sad, but bemused.
"Ermm...Hi."
It lept of my lap, and looked at my face with that same strange look.
"What, are you hungry?"
Nod.
"So, you want this?" I offered it my sandwitch.
Shake.
"You understand me?"
Nod.
"So, what do you want to eat?"
It lept up and started rummaging in my bag. I saw that the paddles had left angry red scorch marks. Then, it gave a cry of triumph, and pulled out my memory stick. It pulled off the top, and started to suck the end port. I could see little 0's and 1's floating off. As it ate, the burn marks seemed to simply fade out.
"Oh right, 'cause you eat data dont you. You're sort of a computer program. That's pretty cool. So what are you going to do now?"
It looked at me. Then back at it's lunch. Then gave a happy kind of beeping noise, and settled down in my lap.
"Sooo...You want to travel with me?"
Nod.
"Alright. I think I shall call you...Data."

And even now, rescuing him was the best choice I ever made.
