Episode 1

Pallet Town, Kanto Region

"Jay! It's time to get up!" I heard a voice shout from beyond my bedroom door, at the bottom of the stairs. I buried my face into my pillow, grumbling and wanting to sleep more. I heard my door opening before I was suddenly pounced on. I bolted upright with a yelp before looking down and saw my mother's Growlithe, Burst, staring up at me with his tongue hanging out.

"Morning to you too, boy." I yawned. I ran my hand through my short, orange hair before nudging the fire type off and climbed to my feet. I rubbed my brown eyes before standing and began to get dressed.

I slipped on a grey T-shirt, a short-sleeve, dark green zip up with black accents, a pair of dark green jeans and black and grey shoes. I grabbed my black beany with a green pokeball on it and slipped it on my head.

I picked up my glasses, putting them on and walked out of my room with Burst following me. We made our way down the stairs and into the kitchen where my mother was sitting at the table, feeding a baby Vulpix that had hatched just a day ago.

"Morning mom." I chirped before walking to the fridge and opening it.

"Morning, dear." My mother had brown eyes, like mine, but her hair was a black color.

I grabbed the carton of milk and grab a cup from a cabinet, pouring some and putting the carton back. I looked over to the counter and saw a stack od pancakes sitting on a plate with a fork beside it.

"Thanks for breakfast." I picked up the fork and plate before sitting at the table, across from her.

"You're welcome." Mother smiled before putting Vulpix' food down and began to groom it. The Vulpix let out a small noise of contentment before shutting its eyes, enjoying the feeling of a brush going through its fur.

I quickly ate, not wanting to make the same mistake my best friend did by getting the professor's lab late a month earlier. Once I was done, I walked over to the sink and sat my plate and fork inside before doing the same with my cup after I finished drinking it.

"I'm heading over to the lab, now." I stated before kissing my mother on the cheek. I grabbed my backpack, slung it over my shoulders and made my way out of the house and began to head to the lab. I could see people outside of their houses, doing some work with their Pokemon or simply walking.

It didn't take long for me to get to the lab, walking up all those flights of stairs just to get to the front door, which I opened and walked inside. "Professor Oak?"

"Jay, I didn't expect you to be an hour early." Oak came out from another room, walking towards me.

"What can I say? I didn't want to pull an Ash."

Oak chuckled and shook his head, obviously getting the joke that I was making at the expense of my best friend. He led me over to the table that had three pokeballs on it and before I knew it, the three starters were standing in front of me.

"Charmander!"

"Squirtle!"

Bulbasaur!"

The three stared up at me for the longest moment before Squirtle diverted his attention away from me, followed by Charmander. They were looking around, as if to see if there were any other trainers around. Bulbasaur, on the other hand, kept staring at me with his red eyes, as if he was assessing me.

He waddled over to me, sniffing at my shoe before he began to rub his head against my leg contently. he moved away when I knelt, and he reared up, putting his front paws on my thigh. I began to rub his head, causing his eyes to shut and lean into my touch.

"It seems that Bulbasaur chose you." I heard Oak chuckle before walking away from the two of us. I paid him no mind, just continued to rub my new Pokemon. I did not expect for one of the Pokemon to choose me, it was supposed to be the other way around. I wasn't complaining, though. How can I when Bulbasaur was the only two starters I didn't mind getting, the other being Charmander.

"Here you go, Jay." Oak stated, causing me to look up at him. I saw him standing there, holding five pokeballs and a red pokedex. I stood up, putting the pokeballs on my belt and the pokedex in my pocket before clipping Bulbasaur's ball with the other five.

"You can give you're Pokemon a name." Oak told me, and I thought for a long moment, looking down at my partner.

"A name, huh?" I mumbled, staring into Bulbasaur's eyes. "Duke…how does that name sound? Duke?"

"Bulba!" The newly named Bulbasaur nodded, his lips curving into a grin.

"Duke it is!" I grinned before taking out glancing at the pokedex and then looked at the professor. "Is it okay if I use this on these three?"

"Sure, go ahead." Oak nodded. I opened the device and pointed it at Duke.

"Bulbasaur, the seed Pokemon. A strange seed was planted on its back at birth. The plant sprouts and grows with this Pokemon." A robotic voice stated.

I turned towards Charmader and Squirtle.

"Charmander, the lizard Pokemon. Obviously prefers hot places. When it rains, steam is said to spout from the tip of its tail."

"Squirtle, the tiny turtle Pokemon. After birth, its back swells and hardens into a shell. Powerfully sprays foam from its mouth."

I slipped the dex back into my pocket after closing it and straightened up. "Thanks Professor, I'll see you later."

Duke and I made our way outside and down the steps until I noticed a group of people standing at the bottom of it. I could see both of my parents as well as Delia, Ash's mother, standing there, waiting for me.

"What are you guys doing here?" I questioned them as I finally stepped off the last step.

"We're here to see you off." Delia smiled. "It was if it was only yesterday that you and Ash was playing in our backyard with Mr. Mime."

My parents walked closer to me and place a hand on my shoulders, both smiling proudly down at me.

"You're going to be a fine trainer." My father stated, his amber eyes shining.

"We love you." My mother kissed my forehead.

"I love you both, too." I stepped away and looked down at Duke. "You ready?"

"Bulbasaur!"

I began to run with Duke running beside me. I waved back at my family, a wide grin on my face.

It was time to start my Pokemon adventure and with Duke by my side, there's going to be nothing to stop us from being the best.
