Hello everyone my name is Descendant after countless writer block curses I have decided to attempt to write a Pokemon Fan fiction. I mostly base most of my stories so to me this is a challenge so please enjoy this story and sit back relax let the words take you away.
Prologue : A Trainer's Journey Begins
The summer breeze flew all across Pallet Town the townsfolk were outside gardening training or just relaxing with the sun shining above them. Across the bridge of Central Pallet Town many Pokemon and trainers were focusing their bodies and minds, for their upcoming journeys many were traveling to Johto Hoenn and Sinnoh regions to start their adventure. Others were at Professor Oaks to get their starting Pokemon over the last few months Prof. Oak had the privilege of having all the starting Pokemon from each region in his lab , mostly girls would volunteer to help the cute little Pokemon. On a hill a young man no more then fifteen years old wearing sunglasses was reading a book about Pokemon Evolution he rested comfortably on the grass he focused on his book. Unannounced to him someone was slowly creeping beside him, flipping a page he continued reading but something was wrong his shoulder felt heavy turning his head finding the source a mass of black hair laid comfortably watching the sky.
" Wow the weather is so beautiful today don't you think ". a young girl asked sweetly
" I'm not your pillow you know ". the young man answered
" Awe you could be ". she stated sitting up
Removing his glasses young Shade Devan's grey eyes met with Joan Swans purple loving eyes, sparkling with affection for as long as they could remember these two have always loved one another. No matter how hard Shade tried he could never stay mad at her will except the time when she pushed him in the river and he was covered with seaweed but that is a whole different story. She wore a light purple top and blue cut jean shorts with her glasses on her head, around her neck was a gold necklace with her birthstone on it as a birthday gift . Shade on the another hand wore black jeans with a silver black shirt to match, touching her cheek he gently smiled at her lovingly as did she.
" So how was the volunteer work ". he asked folding the corner of a page in his book
" It was fantastic, I played with a baby Cyndaquil all day " . she answered sweetly
" That's good I'm still wondering what Pokemon to start with though ". he stated sitting up
" Shade it's been two months already and you still don't know , hm I'm beginning to think you don't want a starter Pokemon ". she stated turning her head away
" The truth is I just can't decide at all ". he said standing up
" Shade ". she said sweetly
" This world where man and Pokemon exist is so vast and free that the very thought of going on a journey like that boils my blood, meeting new challenges finding different Pokemon, discovering hidden mysteries and becoming a champ is what this world brings". he yelled with excitement
Getting up Joan walked to him kissed him softly and held him tenderly.
" Love is also very important as well " . she said tenderly
Walking hand and hand the two watched how many people were excited about their children starting on their own, reaching his house he opened the door and smelled the delicious aroma of curry in the air walking to the kitchen he saw his mother Jenna Devan cooking away.
" Hey mom ". he said opening the fridge
" Oh hi Shade dinner will be ready soon Joan are you joining us today ". she said sweetly
" If you don't mind Mrs. Devan's ". she stated politely
As the trio sat at the table Shade was looking over the list of Pokemon Prof. Oak mailed him a few days ago, the wheels in his mind were turning swiftly looking left and right up and down trying to find the right partner.
" Man what a pain, here I thought choosing a Pokemon would be easy but it's like pulling teeth " . he thought racking his brain toward a decision
" Shade honey you have staring at that list for hours any choices yet ". asked his mother
" Well I do like Turtwig and Treecko, Charmander looks strong but so does Totodile and Torchic " . stated Shade drinking his orange juice
" From what I learned is that Charmander is more of a strategy type Pokemon it requires a lot of training , Treecko is an endurance type its defensive power is key to raising it well " . said Joan looking at the list
" I think I'll go to the volunteer thing with you Joan and see what they are like ". said Shade getting out of his chair
" That's a wonderful idea honey you can observe how each behaves " . stated his mother
" Well I'm off thank you for the meal Mrs. Devan's " . said Joan putting on her shoes and opening the door
As Shade walked with her they reached her house and were at the front door.
" I'll see you tomorrow good night Shade " . she said kissing him
" Sweet dreams I love you good night " . he said walking away
Reaching his house once more he went to his room changed his clothing and hoped into bed, after a while a large boom was heard from outside thunder roared as rain plowed Pallet Town. Then out of no where a loud roar was heard all around waking up Shade, he looked outside a thunderbolt flashed near the outskirts of the town the wind howled an ear shattering screech was heard . Curious Shade changed his clothing and ran outside in the storm and through the underbrush he found the source of the noise. A group of Houndour were attacking a young Scyther biting and tackling left and right, scars all over it's body it's claws chipped and cracked. The Scyther stood up weak but continuing to endure the attack, Shade was speechless the heart of Scyther was huge every attack combination it just got up breathing heavily. Grabbing a stick Shade swung it left and right making the Houndour growl and back away.
" Go on get away from here go back to the forest " . yelled Shade swinging madly at the angry Houndour group
They charged at Shade tackling him down left and right he got up protecting Scyther again and again, swinging his stick at the Houndour growling in frustration the growling stopped and Shade fell to his knees breathing heavily and exhausted. The stick in his hand caused blisters to form and it was broken in half turning around the Houndour left into the woods Shade turned Scyther was up and ready to fight .
"Scy Scyther ". It said falling to one knee and breathing heavily
" Scyther hey are you alright ". asked Shade looking at it
" Scy ". It said before collapsing on the mucky ground
Shade removed his coat and draped it over Scyther picking it up he ran through the rain and thunder towards Prof. Oaks lab ringing the door bell and banging on the door. After what felt like forever Prof Oak. opened the door and Shade collapsed on the floor. The sun woke up Shade as he sat up bandages all over him turning he saw Scyther sleeping soundly, getting out of bed Shade ached all over and he opened the window to get some air into the room and watching the clouds move in the sky. The door opened Shade didn't turn or blank just staring at the sky letting his mind wonder, Joan was there leaning on the door as she closed it she walked to him and wrapped her arms around his bandaged chest and laid her head on his spine.
" I'm glad your alright Shade ". she said softly
The door opened once more and Prof. Oak was there .
" I'm glad your up Shade you seem to be recovering very well ". he stated confidently
" How is Scyther doing ". asked Shade not turning around
" Well with a little more rest it's wounds will heal but I'm afaird that the scars will remain as will as yours Shade ". answered Oak politely
" I'm glad could you leave me alone with Scyther for a while ". asked Shade moving to his bed
" Of course you two need your rest ". answered Oak leaving the room
As Joan left after Shade stood by Scyther's side day in and out not moving an inch observing how it's will to survive was so strong , for 3 days Shade was there watching it sleep soundly one morning It's eyes opened a little and It saw Shade sleeping on the bedside with his hand on it's claw . Bending down it used it's nose to stir Shade awake.
" Scy ". it said nudging Shade once more
Stirring awake Shade was face to face with Scyther their eyes searching each others souls Shade could have sworn he saw fire in Scyther 's eyes , getting up they both got out of the room and downstairs to the Research Area where everyone was waiting .
" Professor Oak , Joan , Mom I'm ready to start my journey as a Pokemon Trainer ". said Shade looking at everyone
Everyone stared in shock even Scyther who was kinda of confused , Joan ran and hugged her boyfriend like crazy his mother was clapping for him .
" So Shade have you decided what Pokemon top start with ". asked Oak
" Scyther do you wanna go with me on my journey ". asked Shade
" Scy ". It answered confused
" What do you say partner ". asked Shade holding out his hand
Scyther understood now it smiled and raised its claw and shook hands with Shade smiling happily. After a while everyone was outside the Lab Shade was wearing some new clothing and his sunglasses and a black red backpack.
" Well Shade here is your Pokedex it contains all the Pokemon data that exists in this world , and some Poke balls ". said Oak handing it to him
" Shade honey here is a map for all the areas to you can explore and a Poke phone so you can keep in touch ". said his mother handing him everything
" Thanks mom Professor Oak ". said Shade using one of his Poke balls
" Scyther ". it said smiling
" Scyther return ". said Shade and placing the ball on his belt
" Your first stop should be Pewter City in order to get there you must cut through Viridian City then enter the Forest ". said Oak cheerfully
" Shade be careful okay I don't want to get hurt ". said Joan crying a little
" Hey don't worry I'll be fine I love you ". said Shade kissing her softly
" I love you too have a safe journey ". said Joan smiling
Turning around Shade walked as everyone waved behind him the sunset was coming walking forward with Scyther by his side, this is one adventure that they will never forget and what new challenges face them they will fight to become champions .
