A/N: Hey guys! It's chapter 1! Before we get to it, I just wanted to give a shoutout to PrincessKatniss02 for following and reviewing this story!

In this chapter, our first main character is introduced, but that's all I can tell you; Read the story to find out what else goes down!


Chapter One:

Lewis Lawrence, (He preferred to be called Louis) was a pretty good kid. He was ambitious and confident about everything he did, but living in the small town of Lilo, he was often bored. Not many kids in his town were his age, and he had no family around other than his parents. Louis sought out adventure. He was unable to bear the thought that his life would be a continuous bore. Luckily, he lived in a life with Pokémon, magical creatures that lived alongside humans as companions in his world. Sadly, the boy had never come into contact with the animals. Just as he was sure that his life would never change, one fateful day, it did.

ooo

Louis rose up out of his bed. Turning his head to look at his alarm clock. It read 11:29 AM.

"Oh man!" Louis exclaimed, "I'm late!" He knew he shouldn't have stayed up watching "Pokémon TV!". He heard Professor Maple was going to stop by Jendo Town, the next town over that could be reached in a walking distance, and let a select number of young trainers a partner Pokémon to take with them at eleven-thirty. As the clock ticked almost demeaningly, he started to panic. Quickly, he brushed his teeth and changed his clothes. He raced downstairs and into the kitchen, startling his mother who was enjoying a breakfast meal.

"What's the hurry, Lewis?" Kara, his mother asked.

"I've got to get to Jendo Town! You know that, Professor Maple's gonna be there and I'm going to get a Pokémon!" Louis threw open the pantries, grabbing a PokéYum toaster pastry and shoving it in his mouth. She chuckled slightly, "Honey, I set your clock two hours fast so that you'd make it to Jendo by 10:30. He stared at her with a blank face, his cheeks full.

"Weally?" he mumbled. He swallowed, "Well, I guess that's a good thing." He sat down next to his mom and ate the rest of his PokéTart at a normal pace. After about thirty minutes he said his goodbyes and stood in front of his mother at their porch.

"Wait, Lewis, I want you to take this," he looked to see his mother holding the latest version of phones from PokéTech called the 'Xtranceiver', "This way, you can call me whenever you want and I can call you to figure out what you're up to!" Louis smiled, taking the gift from his mother.

"Thanks mom! I'll call you as soon as I get my first Pokémon!" Kara nodded. As Louis walked down the steps, he waved to his mother. And with that, he started the first steps onto his newfound journey.

ooo

So Louis left his childhood home for Jendo Town. As he walked the pathway to Jendo, he made sure to stay out of the wild grass since he had no Pokémon. Well, at least not yet, he thought with a smile. He saw two people up ahead, an odd man in some sort of uniform and a small boy. But something was strange. They were arguing. Or playing a tug-of-war game of some sort. When Louis looked closer, he saw they weren't playing at all! The man was stealing the boy's Pokémon! He had to help him! But he had no Pokémon! Defeated, Louis ran past the scene, the sounds of the little boy's cries as the man ran away echoing in his mind. It hurt him, but he knew there was nothing he could do about it. Until he reached Jendo Town did he stop thinking about the little boy, and start thinking about his future with Pokémon.
