Was it midnight? It had to be. I was too excited to wait until morning. Brave enough I even sneaked out of the house.

A long line was waiting outside of a game store. The line had about 30 people in line camping out. The air was cold, and the breeze made me shiver. I blew into my hands to keep them warm as I waited in anticipation.

The store opened. The crowd started acting rowdy, so they had to let in a few people in at a time. As I waited I overheard people talking about their favorite things to do in these games. Getting to the end, stopping the main bad guys, catching a legendary etc.

It's finally my turn inside and I pick up my copy of the game.

"That'll be $34.99.", the cashier told me.

I hand him the money in cash and he gives me my change back. He puts the game with the receipt inside a bag and hands it too me.

"Thank you have a nice night." He tells me.

"You too". I respond.

I get home quick. As I get to my house I check to see if anyone's awake before I open the doors. I look through the window to the living room and see that the lights are off. I slowly unlock the door and walk in. I can hear my little brothers console playing loudly in his room; that might have been why I snuck in without getting caught.

I walk into my room as if I've been home the entire time and close the door. I take the game out of the plastic bag and open it out of the game case. I grab my 3ds, get under the covers of my sheets, and insert the new game I got into the 3ds. Pokemon Omega Ruby.

The game turns on.


A boy with a white beanie, brown hair, black shorts, and a red shirt wakes up inside a moving van. As he begins regaining consciousness he looks down at his arms and begins freaking out.

"Huh? My arms? My legs!"

He moves his body around inspecting what could have happened to him.

"What's happened to me? My body's different it's much bigger than before."

He looks around noticing the cardboard boxes around him. There are labels on them saying stuff like "Dishes", "Furniture", and "Electronics" on them.

"I'm inside the moving van. That can't be right."

The boy hears a ringing coming from his pocket. He hears it and takes out a device he's clearly seen before.

"Why's my pokenav ringing? It's never rang before."

The pokenav turns on showing a pixelated Professor Birch on the screen.

"Professor Birch! Thank goodness you haven't changed. Somethings happened I think I may have gotten kidnapped or something and they did something to my body."

The pokenav starts showing text across the screen.

Hi! Sorry to keep you waiting! Welcome to the world of POKéMON! My name is BIRCH. But everyone calls me the POKéMON PROFESSOR.

The boy looks down stupefied realizing that this isn't a call from the professor.

The moving van begins driving through a forest filled with different types of pokemon as the boy continues reading the text.

"This world is widely inhabited by creatures known as POKéMON. We humans live alongside POKéMON, at times playing together as friends, and at times helping one another out. And sometimes, we just like to have fun battling others like us!"

"Help me out by getting me out of this van!" the boy screamed at the virtual professor.

The van is passing by a group of Arons and a Lairons. Shroomish begin popping out of the ground jumping up and down for fun. A Poocheyena and a large Tropius come face to face looking ready to battle.

"But as close as we are, we don't know everything about POKéMON. In fact, there are still many, many mysteries surrounding POKéMON. I do research to try to unravel those POKéMON mysteries. But that's enough about me! What about you? Are you a boy? Or are you a girl?"

"What kind of a question is that clearly I'm a –"

Before the boy can finish his body changes into that of the female trainer of the game. He… She? Looks at herself having a mental breakdown. The trainer looks at the pokenav with a picture of what they used to look like and a picture of May, his oldest friend he's known for a long time. The indicators on each picture change back and forth and with each time his body would change depending on where the indicator was on.

"I think I'm gonna be sick.", he said as the boy this time.

The picture of himself is selected and the professor asks, "Will you give me your name, too?".

"Oh, I've got a couple of names for you.", he growled.

A keyboard pops up on the pokenav. Letters begin typing themselves on the keyboard. As this plays out the boy reaches for his backpocket and when he reaches in he finds it empty.

"Where are they?! No no no where are all my pokeballs? Where are all my pokemon that I was carrying?" he said looking worried. "Okay think. Nothing here makes sense. I'm inside the moving van from when I first arrived to Hoenn. All my pokemon are missing and my body has a new layer of depth to it. Speaking of that this entire van has some new depth to it. Everything was much more… flat the last time. Could this be a reset?"

The keyboard closes on the pokenav. On the screen it reads "My Bitch" in clear bold letters.

"So you're My Bitch?" says Professor Birch.

"What?! NO! Professor Birch you know who I am the first time we met I told you my name was Brendan.", he screams.

"Ah… I see!"

"Phew! Thank you I'm glad I was somewhat able to get through to you", Brendan exhales in relief.

"You're THAT My Bitch! You're the one who's moving to Littleroot Town, where I live!" the Professor replies.

Brendan throws the pokenav into one of the cardboard boxes nearly breaking it. He sits down with his hands over his head in a panic.

"Alright so I've gone insane. I'm having massive déjà vu I could've sworn I've been through all this before, several times actually, only this time everything feels different. These aren't exactly the same scenarios that play out like usual except for the me losing my pokemon that lets me know I've reset."

The van finally stops moving and the doors open. The usual flashing bright lights at the end of the van appear. The thing Brendan remembered each and every time.

"This is where I would always start. Why did it take longer this time? Isn't this where I was always supposed to start?", Brendan wondered.

Brendan walks towards the light. He hops out of the moving van looking around waiting for his mom to take him into their new home as she did every time except this time she wasn't the first thing he noticed. Brandon began looking around and stared up into the sky seeing something blasting across.

Brendan turns around confused again. He notices the moving van is out of its original place. It would always be right in the front of his house but this time it was parked to the right of it.

"…Maybe I'm over thinking this reset. After all these are pretty small changes it's nothing drastic." He thought to himself.

Brendan's mom walks over to him. She had the same old smile on her face she always did when he started each time.

"My Bitch! You're here at last!" she laughed.

"I change my mind this is terrible!", he mentally cried.
