Chapter I
The Beginning


"Mom, hurry up!" said Ryan. he had been waiting on her for 10 minutes.
Today, Ryan was in a hurry. He had heard Professor Redwood had asked him to
come over to his lab today, and he was eager to get there.

"Okay, okay. Let's get going!" said mom. they got into the car and left.

"Why do you think Prof. Redwood wanted to see me today?" asked Ryan.
Professor Redwood had never been interested in him in the past, and Ryan had no
idea why he would be now.

"I don't know. We'll know shortly, though!" They pulled into the drive-
way and got out.

"You don't have to stay, mom."

"Alright, i'll just head home. if you need a ride back, just call me and i'll
come pick you up." Ryan knocked on the door, and entered the lab.

"Ah, so you've made it, Ryan," said Prof. Redwood.

"So, why have you asked me to come here?" Ryan questioned.

"I have brought you here today, because today is the day I belive you are
ready! I belive that you are worthy of a pokemon!
