Pokemon: New World
Chapter 1: Rebuild
It was dark night lit with a full moon as a ship sailed through the ocean. On the deck of the ship, a teenage boy leaned on the railing of the ship on the port side. He had short black hair and dark brown eyes. He wore a blue jacket over a black shirt, blacks jeans, and a red hat. He silently stared up at the moon with a sullen look on his face.
A woman with long black hair like the boy the boy walked out of the ship's cabin and walked up to the boy and placed a hand on his shoulder. "What's the matter Roy, can't sleep?" She asked.
"Yeah..." Roy mumbled.
"You thinking about your Pikachu again aren't you?" The woman asked.
Roy remain silent as he looked down into the bluish black waters. He turned around and began to walk away. "I think I've stayed up long enough, I'm going to bed... Goodnight mom..." Roy stated as he walked to the door of the cabin. He opened the door and walked into the cabin and shut it behind him.
Roy's mom stared at the door of the cabin silently. "That poor boy, he hasn't been the same since that day..." She said sullen look on her face.

Roy laid in his bed with a thoughtful look on his face as he closed his eyes. "Pikachu..." He mumbled.

A younger Roy, wearing a red jacket instead of his current blue one and a pair of blue jeans stood at one end of a battlefield with a horrified look on his face.
In front of him, lay a bruised and battered rodent like pokemon that was covered in short yellow fur and had small black eyes. It had three brown stripes on its back, red fur on its cheeks, and black fur on the tips of its long ears. It was covered in bruises and scars.
Roy shuffled over to his Pikachu and knelt down to its side. He scooped the injured pokemon into his hands and held it close to his body. He hung his head, casting shadow from the bill of his hat over eyes as tear dripped down onto his Pikachu's nonmoving head.

Roy stood in front of a counter with a pink haired nurse standing behind it and beside a machine with a smell red and white pokeball inside of it.
The nurse said nothing as she shook her head in negativity.
Roy's eyes widened as his mouth become agape with horror. He paled as his eye rolled in the back of his head and he fell over backward with his vision blackening before he hit the hit the floor unconscious.

Roy lay in his bed, fast asleep with a single running down the side of his cheek.

In a large city filled with tall buildings and skyscrappers, several people wearing business suits and mining uniforms ran up and downs the street.
Unbeknownst to the many busy humans, a small orange and yellow lizard like pokemon sat in one the alleys between the buildings. The pokemon had orange head from the mouth up with a small red scale making up a crest and a yellow body with a red belly. It wore a shed skin over its legs and tails, making it appear to wear a pair of pants. Around it necks was a small locket that it held in the palm of its hand. It stared down at said locket as it leaned against the wall of a building.
"Purr(Hey),"
"Scr(Hmm)?" The lizard pokemon mumbled as it looked up from the locket and over to a bunch of trash cans.
A small cat like pokemon leaped onto the tops of the trash cans. It was covered in mainly purple fur with cream colored fur on its forelegs, back, mouth and neck, and forehead and pink fur around its green eyes and extending onto its forehead. Most notable about it, was that it had three scratches over its left eye.
"Scraggy Scraggy(Oh, it's you Purrloin)" The lizard pokemon, Scraggy, said with half lidded eyes.
"Purrloin Purr Purr Purrloin(You don't need a human), Purrloin Purr Purr Purrloin(All we need is each other)." Purrloin meowed.
Scraggy looked away silently as it tightened its grip around the locket. It stood up and walked toward the entrance of the alley.
"Purr(Huh)? Purrloin Purrloin(Where are you going)?" Purrloin asked.
"Scraggy(For a walk)..." Scraggy replied as it walked out of the alley.
"Purr..." Purrloin sighed. "Purrloin Purrloin Purrloin Purrloin Purr Purrloin Purrloin Purr Purrloin(It must be hard for a caught pokemon to return to being a caught pokemon)..." Purrloin sympathized.

Scraggy walked down the street hanging its head with its hands in makeshift pockets in its skin pants. All the human it walked past it ignore it as they were busy with their daily lives. Scraggy wasn't paying attention to where it was walking, causing it to bump into someone's leg and fall on its rear.
The owner of the leg, a youngster boy with an orange hat that he wore backwards, felt Scraggy hit its leg, causing him to turn around and look down at it and smile: "Cool, a Scraggy, I've been looking for one of those!" The boy exclaimed. "Go Pidove!" He shouted as he pulled out a pokeball and released a small bird like pokemon from it.
Pidove have mainly gray feathers with black feather on it wings and neck and yellow eyes. It had a black beak with a pink cere and pink legs.
Scraggy flipped backwards onto its feet and assume a fighting stance and a determined look formed on its face.
"Pidove, Air Cutter!" The boy ordered.
"Pi!" Pidove shouted as it flapped both of its wings, created a large blade like vacuum that struck Scraggy and knocked it backward and onto its back.
"Scr!" Scraggy grunted as it stumbled back to its feet.
"Quick Attack!" The boy ordered.
"Pidove!" Pidove exclaimed as it flew toward at high speeds, striking Scraggy before it had a chance to react, knocking it back even further and causing it to drop to one knee.
Scraggy stood back and cringed in pain, shutting one of its eyes. It shook off the pain and pounce at Pidove and attempt to kick its legs, only for Pidove to veer to the right and dodge the attack to its surprise. Scraggy landed back on to the ground face first and struggled to get back up.
"Now to catch it." The boy said as he pulled out a pokeball.

Roy walked off the ship behind his mother, carrying a large cardboard box.
"Oh cheer up Roy, today we begin live anew in the Unova Region." Roy's mom reassured. "I'm sure you'll make many new friends here in Castelia City, just wait and see." She added.
"I hope you're right..." Roy replied.
The two walked off of the pier and up a street pass several people to a large apartment building.
"Here we are, 3108." Roy's mom stated as she read a card and look at the number on the apartment building. She placed the card into her pocket and walked into the building.
Roy was about to follow her in, but stopped in midstep when he heard a voice.
"Forget this, I'm all out of pokeballs!"
Roy turned to the voice and saw the youngster walking away from the injured Scraggy that lay on the ground appearing to be losing consciousness. Roy widened his eyes and dropped the box he was holding. He ran to the injured Scraggy and scooped it up in his hands in a similar manner to his late Pikachu. "Hey, wake up little guy! Are you okay?" Roy asked.
Scraggy slowly opened its eyes and looked up at Roy. Its vision was blurry, so it blinked its eyes to clear up its vision and clearly see Roy's worried face. It widened its eyes in surprise before suddenly headbutting Roy in the stomach, causing him to drop it and land on his back.
Scraggy landed on it feet as Roy sat up and adjusted his hat.
"What was that for?" Roy asked with slight anger his voice.
Scraggy looked down in silence as if it was in deep thought before suddenly running away.
"Hey wait, your injuries!" Roy called out in concern.
"Scr!" Scraggy groaned as pain shot throughout its entire body, causing it to flinch up and stop moving. Its eye rolled into the back of its head as it fell over unconscious to Roy surprise and horror.
"L- little buddy!" Roy called out. He ran to Scraggy and picked it up. He looked up and saw several people on the streets staring at him. "Pokemon Center, where is it?" Roy demanded as he asked a random business man.
"Oh, uh, it down the street and then a left-"
"Thanks!" Roy thanked as he ran in the direction the was pointing. 'I can't let the same thing happen to this pokemon that happened to Pikachu!' Roy thought as he ran down the street.
