Nate POV
Today was finally the day. It was finally the day I could get a Pokemon and go explore mainland Unova. And finally see my brother, who never has much time to visit, and I wanted to go to him first! Oh what starter should I get? All these thoughts raced through my head as I thought of the three I should get. I think I would like to have an Oshawott, just like my brother! Afterall, you can't get much cooler than a samurai! I leaped out of bed and threw on my normal shirt and shorts, putting my visor off my mop of hair and grabbing my bag and some socks. I ran to the living room and saw my mom, making breakfast in the kitchen. I sat at the table, grinning widely as she put my plate on the table.
"Slow down cowboy, you still need to eat before you go find Juniper's assistant." She laughed at my enthusiasm.
"Mooom, I get to get a Pokemon and go explore! Of course I'm excited!" I shoveled the food into my mouth and hummed happily.
"I know you are. Oh, Hugh stopped by earlier. He wanted to show you the Pokemon that hatched from his egg earlier this week." Mom said to me as my face lit up brighter than normal.
"Hughy came over!?" I yelled, before whining. "He came over and you didn't wake me up? Mooommm!" Why did I have to be such a late sleeper? I wanna see what Pokemon Hugh got! And Hugh himself of course. We started going out during the time my bro was on his adventures and I couldn't be happier.
"Well, you looked so peaceful while you slept, so I thought I'd let you go on for a bit longer. Besides, I'm sure he'll be back later to accompany you." Mom said with a bright smile. "Now finish up, you don't want to be late." I nodded and cleaned my plate, placing it in the sink before hugging her goodbye, and grabbing my shoes.
"I'll be sure to call you all the time Mom!" I said, waving, before running off towards Hugh's house, only to find him already standing in the road in between our houses, his little sister standing beside him, holding a Pikachu doll. I grinned and ran towards him, almost knocking him off his feet.
"Hugh!" I smiled, hugging him tight. "Sorry I wasn't up when you came by. I heard about your egg though! What hatched? Tell me!" I asked him. He just smirked in response.
"I'm not telling until you get your Pokemon, Nate." He placed his hand on my head and ruffled my hair. "Come on, let's go." I sighed and grabbed his hand and dragged him to the place I was told to go and meet the Professor's assistant. I waved goodbye to his sister as we headed off.
We walked towards the outlook point, which has the best view in the town, and is where I'll be getting my Pokemon. Once we got to the top of the stairs, we saw a blonde lady with an orange jacket standing there, looking at the view in awe. She was holding a cylinder object in her hands which I assumed to be where she was keeping the Pokemon. Hugh stood one step down from the top and leaned against the railing, letting go of my hand.
"Go on then, talk to her." He gently nudged me towards the lady. I nodded, very determined to receive my very first Pokemon. I swiftly walked up behind her and tapped on her shoulder. She jumped with a surprised squeak and quickly turned around.
"Eh? Oh, you must be Nate!" she smiled "Don't do that next time, ok? You nearly gave me a heart attack." She giggled to herself and bowed. "It's very nice to meet you, My name is Bianca and I have the Pokemon right here." She pressed a button on the cylinder and the top opened up revealing three Pokeballs. I tapped each one open so I could see which one had a Oshawott in it. All three were released and I quickly scanned through them before squatting in front of the blue otter.
"Hello there, friend. Do you want to be my partner?" I asked hopefully. The small water type gazed into my eyes and nodded and chirped happily as it jumped into my arms. I grinned and stood up and spun around hugging my new partner. "We're going to be the best of friends!" I stopped and let it hang on my shoulder.
"How cute. Would you like to give your Pokemon a nickname? Amazingly, you were lucky enough to get a female, which are pretty uncommon among starter Pokemon." Bianca asked returning the remaining two starters back into their pokeball and into the container. I thought for a moment, what name would best suit you? I asked in my head looking at the otter on my shoulder.
"Hmm, I think I'll go with… Kishi." I smiled and held her up in the air. "How do you like that name, buddy? " The tiny Pokèmon happily cried it's name and wiggled out of my grasp so she fell on my face and hugged tightly. Bianca and I both laughed.
"Here, I'm also to give you this." She took something out of her bag and handed it to me, "It's a Pokedex! It'll give you all the information on Pokemon you've seen or caught. It's an amazing tool!"
I happily accepted it and put it in my own bag. "Thank you very much ma'am," I bowed and Kishi, who was now on the ground followed my action. "I'll use it always." I straightened myself up and waved farewell. But before I could turn around, Bianca grabbed my hand.
"Wait! Before you go...I want to ask you something… " I looked at our hands and back at Hugh who had an eyebrow raised. "You're Black's brother right?" I nodded. "If… if you see him can you let him know I said hi? And to come by the lab anytime…"
"Oh, um, of course! I'll try but he's not always home… " The thought was making me a little upset and I tried to put it away from my mind right now. I want to be happy right now.
"I know it's hard to see him like this but he's your brother and our best friend. I want to see him feel better." I sighed and nodded pulling my hand away slowly.
"Well, I'll try." I waved goodbye once again and turned around walking towards Hugh.
"That took awhile, I thought it was just going to be, receive Pokemon and go, that's it." he seemed slightly irritated "And what was with the hand holding?"
"Oh that, she was just asking about B-" I lost my voice a little when I tried to say his name. "About my brother…" I picked up Kishi and held her to my chest. "And there was more to it than that, she gave me this!" I took out the Pokedex and handed it to him. He took it into his hands and examined it.
"Hmm." he handed it back to me to which I pocketed. "There's something I want to ask her now, but first." He glanced at Bianca who was watching us and grabbed my chin pulling me close to his face and kissed me.
I heard a gasp followed by a squeal in Bianca's direction and a surprised cry from Kishi.
"Just in case." Hugh said as he pulled back and winked at me. I was a blushing mess and pulled my visor down to cover my face. He waved his hand to motion Bianca to come to which she did.
"Can I help you?" she asked with her voice more perked up. Her face too, was red as she looked between myself and Hugh.
"Yeah, can I have a Pokedex too? I want to be a strong trainer and I think that a Pokedex will help me very much!" He said enthusiastically. She thought for a moment before nodding.
"Of course! It so happens that I have another Dex on me!" She took another one out of her bag and handed it to Hugh. "Treat it well, alright?" She bowed again and waved. "Goodbye now, have a safe journey!" And with that, she was gone. I turned towards Hugh showing him the Oshawott in my arms.
"Look look! I chose Oshawott, now you have to show me what you hatched!" I said bouncing up and down.
He chuckled and pulled out a pokeball from his belt. "You're cute, you know that right?"
"What? No I'm not!" I looked away blushing.
"Cute. Anyways, here he is." He released the pokeball and there stood a small green Pokemon. "Meet Snivy. The grass snake Pokemon. I gave him the name Regal." The snake starter chirped happily, going to Kishi and bowing to her, in which she waved back happily. "Come on, let's head back." Hugh said as he took my hand and walked down the steps.
