Chapter I: A New Beginning
It was a warm summer afternoon in Hoenn. The wind, calm. The leaves on the trees as green as ever, Slackoths hanging or laying on the branches.
Brendan a 16-year-old boy from Johto was riding in the back of a rental van with boxes almost overflowing with clothes and other items. Every once in a while, the van would hit a bump on the road sending a box flying at Brendan's face, "Ugh, why do I HAVE to be back here in this hellhole?" He moaned as he rubbed his
The Van was nearing to a halt, and started backing up. "We must be here... thank Arceus."
The Van stopped. A few seconds later, a Machoke opened up the back door, "Maachoke" It cried, "Thanks" Brendan answered back.
Brendan jumped out of the van and stretched, he looked up and saw a plane flying, most likely to another region as it didn't look like it was landing anytime soon. He remembered Johto where his old hometown was located, his friends Ethan, Lyra, and Krystal. He had good times with his friends in his childhood. He missed Krystal the most, his ex-girlfriend was a cool, energetic person. But last he saw her was two years ago when she went on a Pokémon journey. He still keeps in touch with Ethan, his best friend and also the Champion of Johto. Lance still stands in for him while he is travelling.
"Brendan, are you gonna help unpack the van or are you going to stand there daydreaming?" His mom snapped at him, "Sorry mom", Brendan went to unload boxes.
The Machoke's and Brendan got all of the boxes unloaded into the house, his mom was unpacking them and putting items in their respectful places. Brendan putting boxes labeled "BRENDAN" upstairs into his room. After everything was unpacked, Brendan looked at his watch, "6:12 PM". He saw the clock that his dad bought him, and set it.
He walked back downstairs and saw his Dad walk through the door, "Hey Honey was the drive alright from the airport alright?" "It was fine Norman a little bumpy for Brendan though" she giggled "I'm glad we are closer to your job now." "Brendan! My Boy! How are you?" Norman said. "Hey Dad. I'm tired...and sore, haha" Brendan answered back
Mom got dinner ready in the surprisingly fancy kitchen, they ate. Prepackaged Ramen noodles probably weren't the healthiest choice for an evening meal, but considering the current situation, it was doable. Brendan walked upstairs, down the hall, and into his room. He went to his computer and started typing an email to Ethan, saying that they made it to Hoenn, etc. After that he went to his bed, got undressed and crawled in.
Brendan's nose twitched as he smelled bacon cooking from downstairs and woke up, he looked over at his clock on his nightstand, "10:37 AM". He yawned, got up and stretched. He looked down and saw his six-pack. He was very athletic, he worked out all the time, he never wears any clothing that isn't made for sports usage. He had equipment in his old house in Johto, but then his old room had more space in it to fit massive equipment like Blowflex's and Treadmills. He figured he would get a Bowflex or treadmill at some point while he lived here.
He got up and walked over to one of his suitcases, picked out a black tee and a pair of shorts. He put them on and walked downstairs. His mom was in the kitchen watching the Hoenn News Network, the screen had a man in a suit and tie, and a woman in a purple gown reporting the recent news in Hoenn. A pan of bacon cooking was on the stove
Brendan's Mom was making bacon and pancakes, when Brendan walked in the kitchen, "Morning Mom" he greeted "Morning honey, you sleep well?" she answered back "Actually I did!" he answered. Looking around the room, he noticed his father was not absent. "Where's Dad?" he asked with concern "He went to the gym early this morning. He's got a lot of challenges today." His mother said matter-of-factly
"AND THAT CONCLUDES THE INTERVIEW WITH NORMAN MAPLE, PETALBURG CITY'S NEW GYM LEADER. BACK TO YOU ERIN." the Interviewer announced. "Oh darn, I missed it. Your Father was going to be in an interview today with HNN, but I missed it, ugh.." she sighed. "Anyways breakfast is ready, I have a feeling you will need a big one." She stated.
After they finished eating, Brendan's Mom "Honey, why don't you go and say hello to the neighbors? They are old friends of your dad and I. I'm sure they'd be happy to see you". "Sure, I'll be back". Brendan said
Brendan walked out of the house, shut the door behind him. He stopped and looked at the old log houses and the forest around them. It looked like those slackoth he saw yesterday afternoon hadn't budged at all. Littleroot was a peaceful town, ideal for him. He wondered what it would be like living in this place forever, much better than Goldenrod. "I could used to this place" he whispered to himself.
He walked over to the house next to his, it looked very similar to his house, at least from the outside. He knocked on the door, a woman opened the door, "Hello?" she asked "Hi, my name is Brendan, my parents and I just moved in next door, I'm just here to say hello!" He answered back "Ah! Come in! She said as she walked back in the house, he followed, He closed the door behind him. The lady said "I know your parents very well, in fact my husband and your dad are very good friends. Your dad said his family would be moving in next to us! We have a daughter about the same age as you, she is upstairs….. MAY! COME HERE PLEASE!" She yelled like she had done it before.
"I remember you actually, you were quite the cutie." She said. After a few seconds a girl came down stairs. "What is it Mom!?" she sounded annoyed. t the girl was the same height as he was, brown hair that was partially in a ponytail, the sides loosely waved down to her shoulders on both sides of her face, a bandana wrapped around the back of her head. She had sapphire-colored eyes. She was wearing a red tank top with black shorts. "Honey come meet this young man." She told her daughter.
Brendan got back home from next-door and prepared ready for the day. He changed from his Black tee and shorts to a thin long sleeve sports sweater colored orange and black and sport shorts, he put on his sweat resistant white beanie over his brown hair.
He walked downstairs to meet his mom, who was very edgy. She looked like she was trying to avoid talking to him. Brendan walked out of the door and down the dirt path street, when he heard someone screaming in the woods by his house. He started running towards the forest as the screaming became louder, and louder. He ran through the the tree line about 200 feet when he saw a heavyset, middle-aged man in a lab robe being chased by a gray looking creature. The man yelled "YOU THERE YOUNG MAN, LOOK IN MY BRIEFCASE OVER THERE BY THE BUSH. THERE ARE POKÉBALLS IN IT, FIGHT THIS THING WITH ONE!" The man commanded in a terrified voice.
Brendan ran over to the briefcase and opened it. Three Pokéballs were neatly placed in the briefcase he quickly picked one and threw it.
A green lizard-like pokemon came out "Treecko tree" the Pokemon said. Brendan felt a fire inside him, like he knew exactly what he was doing, his outer mind stopped and his focus went to the to-be battle. He knew what moves the Treecko knew automatically without any guide book he synced his mind with the Treecko. He yelled "Treecko use Pound on the Poochyena!". The lizard pokemon jumped in the air and slammed the Poochyena away from the lab-coat man. Poochyena looked very angry, it started running towards Treecko as its incisors grew, it was going to use the Bite attack. Brendan knew what to do immediately as he said "Treecko use Absorb to suck it in and then use Pound once more!" The green Pokemon sucked in the Poochyena and stole its energy, then slammed it with its tail with the extra energy. The Poochyena went flying over the trees. "Tree, cko" the Pokemon snobbed its head away from the direction the Poochyena went soaring into the sky.
The man in the lab coat's jaw dropped at the sudden skill of Brendan ridding of the wild dog-like Pokemon. "My, my. You saved my but there son, and that skill, are you an experienced trainer?" The man asked, "...um no I-I..." Brendan tried to answer as he snapped out of his trance. "Because I have never seen a beginner battle like that before." The man rambled. He was shocked himself he had done such a thing. He had never commanded a Pokemon in his life, let alone strategize in battle like that before. "N-no, I-I have never b-battled before..."
The Man recognized Brendan for when he was a little boy. The Man visited Norman in Johto a few times. Brendan had grown up. The man looked like he needed a drink of something strong. "Cmon son, let's go to my lab, we will discuss some things there"
"I wonder…." The man thought.
The two walked in the lab "Brendan, I'm Professor Birch. Owner of Littleroot Laboratory... I have reason to believe what you did back there was no coincidence... Nobody, I mean .DY can do what you did on their first try. You can see Elite Four members or Champions have that kind of skill when battling. And the way you mastered commanding Treecko was totally legendary." Professor Birch rambled. Brendan didn't know what to think, he can't even remember Treecko's moves or the strategy. "What causes this? I have never ordered a Pokemon to do something in my life..." He stood there in shocked silence.
After a couple of minutes, the man spoke to himself "I wonder if this is why Norman's wife called me to give him a Pokemon". "... Son, will you take Treecko with you? I want you to go on a journey across the massive region of Hoenn" the man continued "will you take Treecko as your first Pokemon?"
