The Adventure of Devlin
Fire Red: Chapter 2
The Journey Begins
I woke up to see frank on his shell snoring quietly i called him back into his pokeball and got dressed for the day. I waved good-bye to my mom and headed out the door. I decided to take the safe path through the woods to Viridian city. The path was made so that non-trainers and trainers without pokeballs can get to viridian city without Pokemon attacking them, I would have to buy some when I got to the pokemart. Seeing the store i quickly ran in only to be greeted by the shop manager.
"Hey, you came from Pallet town?" he asked.
"Yea why?" I asked back.
"Professor Oak's package came in today could you bring it to him?"
"Of course, not a problem." I said eagerly, Professor Oak gave me my first Pokemon, bringing a package to him would be the least I could do to repay him. I turned around and headed back to the lab.
"Oh hello Devlin, how is my old Pokemon doing?" Oak asked.
"Good so far, I have a package for you." I told him.
"Oh really? Ah it's the custom pokeball I ordered, thank you Devlin."
"Yo Gramps, what did you want?" Gary shouted as he ran through the lab doors.
"Ah yes thank you Gary for reminding me." He said as he reached for two red box like objects. "These are called pokedex, they record data on Pokemon that you have seen or captured. It was my dream to record data on every Pokemon in the world, but I'm too old now so i want you two to carry put my dream for me."
"No sweat Gramps, I'll take care of it. Devlin you can just go home, you won't be needed for this." Gary said as he took his pokedex and 5 pokeballs and walked out.
"Sorry professor. Thank you for all that you have done, I won't let you down." I said as i grabbed the pokedex and remaining pokeballs. Finally I was ready, as i walked through the grass of route 1 a Rattata scurried by. I sent out Frank and after a couple tackles and a pokeball later me and Frank had a new friend. I called out our new friend as I entered Viridian city again. He looked scared, out of place. I couldn't blame him, he only knew me as some guy that started attacking him. "Hey there buddy, don't be scared, Frank and I are going to take care of you. I think I'll name you Eli."
Eli seemed to relax a bit and rubbed against my leg. I smiled and called him back into his pokeball before having him and Frank healed at the pokecenter.
With both my friends at their best i decided to head over to route 22 to try and catch a new friend. I walked into the tall grass and quickly spotted a Mankey. I took a chance and threw a pokeball. It worked to my surprise. 'Jessica, that's what I'll call her.' I thought to myself as i headed on to route 2. Before i got to route 2 though an old man insisted that he teach me to catch Pokemon and after i listened to him and received something he called a teachy T.V I passed on.
As i entered the tall grass of route two i found our newest friend, a Pidgey, the poor thing must have seen a couple harsh battles because it's wing was folded a bit weirdly. After catching him i brought everyone back to the pokecenter. After they were all healed I called out Jessica and our newest friend to introduce them to Frank and Eli.
What happened next though, was something I never expected.
