✋Toppa' The mornin' to ya' laddies, and Gooood Mythical Morning! This is my first Pokemon/Harry Potter crossover, and here's hoping it magically, captures your interest, I on nothing, and No one but my OC's. I'm starting off with My OC traveling through Kanto first then at the end of the Indigo Conference receives his invitation, to Hogwarts.
Chaptler 1: A Journey of Magic begins with friends, and a multi-purpose encyclopedia.
The Sun shone through the shades of the bedroom I shared, with my older cousin Ash, as soon as I opened my eyes the first things I see are my Pikachu Barry, and my Eevee Kara.
I met Barry, when Ash, Pikachu, Misty, Brock, and I were in a forest full of Pikachu. Ash almost left Pikachu there but Pikachu chose to stay with his best friend instead, but during our time in that forest Pikachu, developed a bond with a small Pikachu, that lived in the forest. Before we took off I had an idea for Pikachu to not say good bye to the little one. Ash only had Five Pokemon at the time Pikachu, Pidgeotto, Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle so I asked Ash to catch for me, and hold on to the little Pikachu for me until I was old enough to own it, and until then I could take care of it, with Brock teaching me how thanks to his breeding skills.
Kara was another matter when we got to Ecruteak City city. I found Kara asleep under the shade of a tree during our first time in Ecruteak. When Kara woke up she bonded with Barry, and I immediately, Ash had a full party at the time but we managed to work something out with Professor Oak. He would hold on to Barry's, and Kara's Poke Balls while Barry, and Kara themselves stayed with me, and the three of us had been best friends ever since.
As soon as I woke up, I felt warmer as soon as I looked, at my yellow...furred...paws?, " What the...!" I jumped out of bed and, realized I had shrunk to a 1 foot, 4 height, When I looked in a mirror I saw a Pikachu staring back at me with a confused look on it's face. It's eyes were the same blue as mine are, plus it had a mane style similar to my hair. " Wait... Since when did I become a Pikachu?" I asked in astonishment. As soon as I said this the next thing I knew I was tackled, and pinned down from behind along with my tail. Then Ash's Pikachu clasped his paws tightly to my cheeks. " Alright you little intruder, what are you doing here, and were's Cole?" Pikachu asked, now I got the picture. Kara, was on my back, while Barry, and Pikachu blocking whatever electrical attack I would try to use to break free.
" Pikachu, Barry, Kara! Get off its me Cole!" I shouted, Struggling beneath Kara's wait, had I been my human self I wouldn't have minded, but as a Pikachu though it was noticeable.
" Prove that your Cole." Kara, demanded.
" Barry, you almost said, goodbye to Pikachu, but I talked, my cousin into catching you so you two could stay together, and I could take care of you until I was old enough to be a trainer, and you and I have been best friends ever since." I recalled, " Kara every morning when I wake up the first thing you do is you make absolutely sure that my hair is neat, and clean which is why you groom it, Pikachu when we were lost on the Island of The Giant Pokemon, the only ones there were you, me, Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle, but later we found Meowth, Jesse's Ekans, and James' Koffing."
I finally felt Barry release my tail, Kara climb off my back, and Pikachu release my face, as Barry, and Pikachu helped me to my feet, and Kara began giving me the morning ritual of grooming.
" Great now, how am I supposed to go on my Pokemon Journey?" I said, as Kara started working my back.
" Well maybe you can be someone's else's Pokemon." Barry joked. I however didn't find this funny, and inched backward, into Kara, who wrapped her tail around me, as she worked my head.
" Cole I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you like that." Barry, said, apologetically, " I understand this must all be scary for you, but Kara, and I will help you be with you every step of the way, as will every other Pokemon you catch. We'll do everything we can to change you back.
" Ash, Cole breakfast," called Aunt Delia,
" Oh no," I sighed, as soon as I did there was a puff of smoke around me, and when it cleared I was human agian. Still wearing my Green, sweat shorts, and yellow tank, my fur was replaced with my Caucasian skin, My Eyes still the same cyan, and my Hair back to blonde, but still well groomed thanks to Kara.
That's when I heard a yawn from above, a boy three years older then me, with tan skin, brown eyes, black messy hair, and two lightning bolt shaped markings under his eyes, wearing a pair of, green pajama shorts, and a yellow, and green short sleeve descended, the latter leading to the top bunk.
" Good Morning, Cuz!" I greeted cheerfully, as he went to the bathroom to freshen up.
" Pikachu, Barry, Kara. I want you three to promise me you won't tell anyone about what happened." said to them the instant Ash shut the door behind him.
" Right!" Barry, and Kara promised,
" Pikachu." I said turning to him, " I need you to promise me you won't tell Ash, Do you promise."
" Yes," He said hesitantly, " But I honestly think it would be a better idea if you told someone."
I know what your thinking, how am I not weirded out by talking Pokemon, Well being with, Ash, Pikachu, Misty, Togapi, Brock, Barry, Kara, and Tracey I've been almost everywhere before seen alot of weird stuff. Waking up as a Pikachu, was only half it after that I've become a bit more open minded.
I will Pikachu," I promised, " It's just I'm not ready yet, but I will."
As soon as Ash, was done in the bathroom, I took it over, freshened up, and slipped into my new clothes. I used to were a green hoodie over a red t-shirt, and tan cargo shorts, but, Aunt Delia, some new ones a pair of light blue jeans, a black t-shirt, a pair of red, black, and white sneakers, a pair of black wristbands, and a blue sleeveless jacket with a yellow collar, and yellow stripe going along the zipper.
Ash was now dressed up in his new clothes as well, as soon as I got out. " Morning Champ!" He said, to me ruffling my hair.
" ' Morning Ash!" I said, hugging him, around the waist. After which the five of us, headed down to breakfast.
" Ash?" I asked,
" Yeah, Cole!"
" I was wondering, could you come with me to Professor Oak's Lab to get my Pokedex, and pick up Barry's, and Kara's Pokeballs?" I asked,
" Of course," Ash, answered, happily, " Only if you come to see Pikachu, and I off to Hoenn."
" Don't forget you promised you'd be there to see me in the Indigo League Conference." I reminded, " Just like I promised I'd see yours in Hoenn."
" You know I'll always be there cheering you on, Cole." He promised, confidently.
" We'll all be there to support you honey." Aunt Delia, said, hugging me from behind, as her Mr. Mime, got in on the action.
XXXXXXXX
After breakfast Ash, and I headed down to Professor Oak's Lab, but a group of five others were already there, one was Tracey Sketchit, Professor Oak's assistant, along with a boy, and two girls about my age, and Professor Oak's grandson Gary. One of the girls I recognized as a close friend of mine Lauren, Professor Oak's granddaughter, and Gary's little sister. She wore a purple, sleeveless tunic, with a blue collar, green pockets, and stripes, over black cycling shorts, a green, and yellow kercheif secured her, blonde hair, she also wore black ankle socks, and Brown, and Blue running shoes, and hazel eyes.
The other Girl had, dark brown hair that was cut short, green eyes, and wore a grey hat, with a yellow pokeball, logo, she also wore a red sleeveless shirt, a pair of black sweatbands, a green, skirt, long blue socks, and pink, and white athletic shoes.
The Boy however seemed of african descent, he had brown, eyes, and his black hair was covered by a silver beanie with a dark blue headband, He also wore a yellow, and red, collared short sleeve shirt, with red fingerless gloves with blue wristbands, dark blue jeans, and red, and yellow running shoes.
" Cole!" Lauren said, as she ran up to me and hugged me, which I returned.
We're just good friends, kinda like My Cousin, and her Brother used to be, and still are before, and after that Pokeball incident, a while back, accept we haven't done that just yet, and we pinky swore to stay friends despite, being rivals.
" Hey Lauren." I said, returning the hug.
" Pi-Ka," " Ee-Vee!" Barry, and Kara greeted.
" Hey, Barry, Kara." She said,messaging Barry's left cheek, and scratching Kara behind the ear. To which they leaned into.
"Gary, I thought you were going to do Pokemon Research?" Ash, said to his, childhood friend, gone rival, now rekindled friend.
" And miss My little sister's big day?" Gary said, proudly, placing a hand on Lauren' shoulder. " Not happening."
" Hey Tracey, who are your friends?" I asked, Ash, and My former travel buddy during our time in the Orange Islands, regarding the newcomers.
" Oh these are Nikki Leafgreen, and Troy Firered." He said, as they waved,
" Hi, I'm Cole Ketchum, these are my BFF's Barry," I introduced, as Barry waved. " and, Kara." to which she did the same.
" Nikki." " Troy." They each said respectively, shaking, my hands politely.
" So any ideas which ones you guys want?" I asked, just to be start a conversation.
" Well I want, Squirtle." Lauren said, positively, certain.
" Wow, is it because that was my choice?" Gary asked.
"Well, originally, because it's cute." Lauren, answered. " but seeing as you're a better person I guess I can make that a second reason."
" Bulbasaur, is so the one for me." Nikki stated,
" Charmander, has been the one I've wanted for a long time." Troy, confirmed,
"Nice, well as you can tell I'm ready, to go." I stated, gesturing to Barry, who was riding on my head, like Ash's was doing right now, and Kara, traveling in my arms the way Misty would hold Togapi.
" Ah your here!" said Professor Oak, happily.
" Grandpa!" Lauren, and Gary said, hugging him.
" Yes, it's always good to see my Grandchildren." He said, returning their group, hug. " Now lets get started."
Professor Oak, led us to a table with three Pokeballs on it. Each ball was clearly labeled, " Now Lauren, Nikki, and Troy pick the one you want, while I go get Cole the Pokeballs for Barry, and Kara." Professor Oak said, as he went to the storage area of his. Lauren, Troy, and Nikki just picked the ball that contained the Pokemon they wanted, and let them out.
" I think I'll call you Donnie." Lauren decided, " What do you think?"
"Squirtle, Squit, Squirtle!" Donnie said, happily as Lauren picked him, to bring it into a hug.
" Well I think Jax suits you perfectly." Troy stated, " How about you?"
" Char, Char, Mander." Jax just jumped up, and down excitedly, right into Troy's arms.
" I like the sound of, Rose but what's your opinion?" Nikki, asked her new Bulbasaur, which had heart-shaped spots on her face.
" Bulb, Bulba, Bulbasaur!" Rose said, nuzzling into Thea's own hug.
" Well! I'm glad to see the three of you, bonding so well." Professor Oak said, happily as he passed me, Barry's, and Kara's Pokeballs. " and these are for all of you." He said, holding up, four Pokedexes These are your new Pokedexes." He explained, as he handed each of our own along with six Pokeballs, each.
I noticed how different the were compared to the one Ash had when he traveled through Kanto. These ones opened from the top like a note pad. Not the side like a book.
As soon as we stepped out there was a big crowd of people, waiting for us. " Aunt Delia." I said, somewhat surprised.
" Cole." She, said, holding a yellow backpack. " Look at how grown up you are."
That's when I saw two flying objects headed our way, once they landed I realized they were Charizard, one I recognized as Ash's, the other had bow on it's had which told me she was Charla, on her back was Liza.
I also felt something bump against my shin, and looked down to realize it was Ash's Bulbasaur.
At exactly the same time I heard a siren, and saw an Officer Jenny ride up on her motorcycle, with Ash's Squirtle wearing his Squirtle Squad, shades, sitting the sidecar.
" Liza, Charizard, Charla, Bulbasaur, Officer Jenny, Squirtle!" I exclaimed, excitedly. " What brings you guys here?"
Liza was the first to speak up. " Well Charizard, knew that today was your big day." she explained, Charizard, was always looking out for me, and tended to be protective of me. " So He, and Charla wanted you to have this."
It was then I noticed Charizard was carrying something in his arms. Upon closer inspection, I realized it was a Charmander. " Wow really Charizard?" I asked,
" Rer!" Charizard, answered, placing it down on the ground.
" This is Charizard, and Charla's son." Liza explained,
" Char, Char, Charmander!" Charmander, said looking around, then up at me.
That's when Bulbasaur, reached behind himself with his vines, and lifted another Bulbasaur, out.
" Whoa is this your son Bulbasaur?" I asked, as Bulbasaur placed him in front of me, and nodded.
" Bul, Bulbasaur!" The little Bulbasaur, said, as it was set next Charmander.
" Squirtle, Squirt, Squirt, Squirtle!" Squirtle said placing, another one next to the other two.
" Squirtle?" The little one, said thoughtfully.
"That's Squirtle' son through an affair that he had with another member." Officer Jenny, explained, " Squirtle's been trying to training for the Squad, but it didn't quite fit in, So Squirtle decided to give it to you."
I just knelt down to let Barry, and Kara introduce themselves, pulled out three Pokeballs from my belt. " I'm thinking Charmander, should be Ronnie, Bulbasaur, should be Oliver, and Squirtle, Kaldur." I said, what do you guys think. I heard three approvals.
"Okay, guys these are Barry, and Kara." I said, as the two greeted them. " How would you guys like to be apart of our team." I asked, placing the three empty Pokeballs in front of them.
Both Ronnie, Oliver, and Kaldur turned to look at their respective parents, all of whom nodded. With that all three of them hopped in.
" Ash lets get going." I said, looking at my watch. " Your gonna miss the boat to Hoenn!"
" Your right we'd better go!" Ash, exclaimed.
" Yeah thanks Charizard, Charla, Bulbasaur, Squirtle!" I shouted, as Kara leapt into my arms, and Barry climbed onto my head.
" Bye Aunt Delia." " Bye Mom." We said, as we group hugged her, and then took off for the Ash's boat.
