Chapter 2 - Water, Fire, Grass...

A/N: I do not own Pokemon!

The OC's Torai Desu and Quin Okido belongs to me however! Please ask permission before use.

This is the chapter where Torai gets her Pokemon, what will she choose?

Enjoy! Read and Review!

Torai ran through the town, excitement clear on her face as she neared the laboratory Okido worked in. Her time was now, she was going to make her father, mother and friend proud.

Suddenly however, she bumped into someone and crashed to the ground with a hiss, looking up to see Quin. He was Green's son, and was born in America, far away from any of the regions Torai knew about.

Even though he was born in America, he had moved to Kanto before learning the language there, so since Kanto was rather close to Japan, as were the other regions Torai had heard about, he obviously knew Japanese as his native language.

"Oh, if it isn't Torai..." Quin jeered, glaring down at her as she stood up and glared at him. "Are you getting a Pokemon too? No doubt it'll be pathetic, after all, it's trainer is pathetic..."

"I was taught by Green!" Torai defended, pushing past Quin and into the lab. "So you're only insulting your father's teachings!"

"No, because I was taught solely by Green, you had your pathetic father teaching you too!" Quin sneered, and Torai tried everything not to turn and floor him.

"Papa taught me how to love Pokemon, he's a much better teacher than anyone else!" Torai roared, glaring at her new rival.

"Now, now...Torai, Quin..."

The two teens hummed and turned to see Okido stood before them, smiling kindly, much like he had when he saw Red and Green walk in arguing so many years ago.

"I understand you're both excited about recieving a Pokemon...Green and Red were the same the first time they walked in here..."

"Hai! I can't wait!" Torai said excitredly, bouncing on her heels. "Papa said he'd be here to see me get my Pokemon, I want to recieve it and go home to show my parents!"

"That's rather sweet of you, Torai, Red and Green just left without a word, I told their parents, so it was fine..."

Torai giggled and thought about it, that would be something her father would do. "Of course, before you collect your Pokemon, you must recieve your Pokemon Zukan..."

They both lit up and Okido walked away, returning in a moment with one red Pokemon Zukan, or Pokemon Encyclopedia.

"This is the Pokemon Encyclopedia, or as you probably both know, the Pokemon Zukan...This stores information on all 151 Pokemon in Kanto...However even though Red caught all of the Pokemon, except Mew, each and every Pokemon Trainer should try to fill their own, it adds to you reputation and gives you a closer bond with your Pokemon..."

Torai frowned when Okido handed the red Zukan to Quin and turned away from her. Where was her's?

"Torai, I know how unique you are and how you love to embrace it, so I took the liberty of hand making your's with unique features..."

Torai got all excited as a black Pokemon Zukan with a white hatch was placed in her hands. "This is the newly developed Pokemon Zukan, it's got the same qualities as Quin's, but with a different design. With this Pokemon Zukan, you can check the level of experience and even the attacks of your Pokemon along with it's general information..."

"Awesome!" Torai exclaimed, putting her Zukan away and following the Professor to the table holding three Monster Balls.

"These are the same types of Pokemon I offered Red and Green all those years ago...Each indevidual one is special and have their own personalities..."

A picture appeared on the screen as the ball on the left lit up. It was a green pokemon with a large bulb on it's back and large red eyes.

"Fushigidane..." Okido said, as Torai smiled and the screen faded to another Pokemon, the middle ball lighting up with finesse. "The grass type Pokemon with a unique look...Even with these attributes, it's not the most common choice of new trainers..."

"Hitokage..." An orange salamander appeared on the screen with a flame lighting it's tail, it's eyes blue and it's belly and warm yellow colour. "The fire type Pokemon with the most power, it's fast, strong and powerful against very difficult attributes! It's the most popular amongst trainers!"

Then the last Monster Ball lit up and a blue turtle appeared on the screen, one both of them recognised as the unevolved version of Green's Kamex.

"This is Zenigame...The Water Type Pokemon...This is almost as popular as Hitokage for it's powerful attacks and highly defensive shell, it's ability to carry three times it's weight across water is also a key factor!"

Okido switched off the screen and turned to the two new trainers. "Choose wisely...Your Pokemon cannot be changed and the regret you feel if you choose the wrong one will greatly affect your bond as you grow to know one another..."

Torai froze as Quin pushed her forward, urging her to choose first. She didn't know, she hadn't chosen because all of them were perfect for her. Why did she have to be tri coloured and named the same?!

"Is there a problem Torai?" Okido asked as she stood there, terrified of the Monster Balls. "Are you frightened of the Pokemon? They aren't meant to be threatening to you..."

"N-no, I'm just...Hesitating on a choice..." Torai stated, sighing and looking down at her feet. "See, I wanted to follow Papa's example and choose one to go with my name, but my name means 'Tri' so I can't..."

Okido sighed and rubbed his forehead with two fingers. "I can't choose for you, Torai...It has to be your choice, take all the time you need..."

Torai sat there for several minutes, with Quin getting annoyed behind her, before she finally chose. Her father's Pokemon had been Hitokage, she however, wanted somthing different.

"I choose Fushigidane..." Torai said, taking the Monster Ball and tossing it into the air, gasping with shock as it opened to a small green Pokemon with a bulb on it's back diving into her arms. "F-Fushigidane...I picked this Pokemon because like me, it's not a common choice, whereas I'm not common...I want my Partner to relate to me so we can be closer than ever!"

"What a noble choice...Quin what do you choose?" Okido watched as Quin picked up Hitokage's Monster Ball and pocketed it, not even seeing if it was the type he wanted.

"I chose Hitokage..." He said, he might love Pokemon, but bonds were worthless, he wanted to be the best, not to make his Pokemon his friends.

"Do you want to give your Pokemon nicknames?" Okido asked and Quin declined immediatly. Torai smiled down at Fushigidane and shook her head also.

"Now, Torai..." Quin said, smirking as he took out Hitokage's Monster Ball once more. "How about testing out our new Pokemon?"

"Wh-what?!" Torai stammered, she was now terrified as her Fushigidane watched her with confusion and a little bit of doubt. "I-I don't want to Battle! I'm going to see my parents!"

Quin laughed and stood infront of the door when she attempted to leave. "See? Pathetic, you want to be the best Pokemon Trainer out there, yet you won't battle?!"

Torai growled and nodded, glaring at Quin who was practically laughing in her face. She was going to show him, he hadn't seen her battle yet!
