A/N: Tell me if you guys like it or not. I've been working on this story for a while and I wasn't sure if it would be good or not. But I'm actually kinda confident in this one. ^w^ Review, Favorite, and/or Follow! :D


Lucas' POV


We made our way through the grass and I could tell Barry was excited and Dawn was just stunned. I honestly felt jealous of them. Getting there first Pokemon and setting out for a journey is what I've always wanted, but never asked. I was afraid that Professor Rowan would just tell me that I wasn't ready.

We walked into the lab and we all sat down at a table and Barry and Dawn placed both Piplup on the table.

"The two of you have a long way to go to becoming what you want to be. So, I'm going to start you off. You both have now obtained your first Pokemon and can now start your adventure. I have done something for the two of you and now I want something from you."

The three of us watched as Professor Rowan had gotten up and went to his desk to retrieve something.

"Now, I will give you this."

He walked back to his seat and held out two Pokedex's. One pink and one orange.

"I'm getting old and I want to find out more about the Pokemon out there. These are called Pokedex's and they can identify any Pokemon that you have, catch, and see. I want the both of you to see as many Pokemon as you can and bring back the Pokedex's after you have finished your journey's."

I looked at the two and could only stare. Accepting such a task seemed hard to do. Seeing every single Pokemon in Sinnoh would be wonderful.

"We accept."

"YEAH WE ACCEPT!"

"Good."

They took the Pokedex's and exited the lab with the Piplup's following. But, before the door could close Barry came back in.

"THANKS GRAMPS!"

"Oh...you're both welcome."

I sat at the table still with Professor Rowan walking to his desk again.

"Well Sir, what's the next thing that we do?"

He walked back silently and placed a blue Pokedex in front of me.

"Huh?"

"Not us Lucas, you. I want you to go on a Pokemon adventure yourself."

"Do you really mean it?"

"Yes. Lucas you are a young boy and staying in one place is no good for you. Explore the world out there and hopefully you will enjoy it like I did when I was younger."

"What about the la.."

"Don't worry Lucas I have many other colleagues here to help me with my studies. I love your determination to follow my work. But, you have a world out there to see and you must start somewhere."

"Thank you Professor."

I stood up and took the Pokedex from the table.

"Here, take Turtwig with you."

"Are you sure, he's rare."

"I'm positive. Also take these Pokeballs with you. I've taught you how to catch a Pokemon before, so you should be fine."

He handed me five Pokeballs and I took them graciously.

"I'll call your father and tell him that you started an adventure."

"Okay. Thank you so much Professor."

"No, thank you."

I smiled and dashed home with my arms full of Pokeballs. I knocked because I couldn't reach the door knob and my little sister opened it.

"Lucas? Why aren't you at the lab? Why do you have Pokeballs in your arms? Did you steal them?"

I walked past her and up to my room while she followed me.

"I'm not at the lab because I'm starting a Pokemon adventure, I have the Pokeballs so I can catch Pokemon, and no I did not steal them, Professor Rowan gave them to me."

I took out my yellow backpack and placed everything inside accept Turtwig and put it on my back.

"I'll be gone for a while sis. So, take care of dad while I'm gone okay?"

I ruffled her hair and gave her a hug. I walked out of my room and out the front door. I was ready and nothing could stand in my way.

0o0o0o0

"HEY GET OUT OF THE WAY! IM GOING TO FINE YOU FOR BUMPING INTO ME!"

"Barry calm down. You bumped into him."

Barry? I guess it was Barry and Dawn from before.

"DAWN HE BUMPED INTO ME... HEY, YOUR THAT KID FROM THE LAB!"

I looked up at Barry and Dawn and just smiled. I wasn't surprised to bump into them, but I didn't know it would hurt. Literally.

"I'm starting my Pokemon journey today, too."

"REALLY?"

I nodded feeling proud saying that I was on an adventure. It all happened so fast.

"How about we bring him with us Dawn?"

"Sure that would be great. What do you say...um..."

"Lucas. My name's Lucas."

After I said that Barry put an arm around my shoulder and started rubbing the top of my head with his fist.

"WHAT DO YOU SAY LUCAS!"

I hesitated a little, but I nodded. Traveling with others would be a good experience.

"GREAT NOW LET'S GO TO JUBILIFE!"

He let go and i straightened my hat. He seemed to always be rushing, but I think I could get used to it.

"So Lucas, do you know how to catch a Pokemon?"

"I do, but i never first hand did it."

"Well, THERE'S A FIRST TIME FOR EVERYTHING. CAN YOU SHOW US?"

I looked at the both and nodded. We made it to the tall grass and walked inside. I was nervous, but it exciting all at the same time.

We walked around for a little and that's when i spotted two Starly.

"Okay, here Barry. You battle one and I'll take the other one on."

"ALRIGHT! COME ON OUT PIPLUP!"

"Come on out Turtwig."

I was excited to see what Turtwig looked like and it was small. It stood on all fours, unlike Piplup and had such bright features.

"Well, first you weaken the Pokemon. Turtwig, use Tackle on one of those Starly!"

We all watched as Turtwig charged at the Starly and knocked it down. I took a look at Barry and he seemed to just be standing there looking cluelessly at Piplup.

"Hurry Barry! Use an attack on the other Starly!"

"I DON'T KNOW ANY MOVES!"

"Check your Pokedex, it'll tell you your Pokemon's moves."

He nodded and took it out looking at it with a serious face.

"Turtwig Tack.."

"PIPLUP USE POUND ON THE OTHER STARLY!"

I saw Piplup run pretty fast for a tiny Pokemon and knock the Starly out cold. My mouth hug open.

*I didn't know such a tiny Pokemon could hold back so much.*

"How was that Lucas?"

I stared at him and nodded.

"Good, now throw a Pokeball before it recovers."

"Hehe... About that..."

"What's wrong?"

"Well I kind of don't have any Pokeball's.."

I face palmed myself. How was this guy suppose to survive out here when he doesn't even have any items. I was feeling genorous today so i went through my bag and picked up a ball.

"Here Barry take one of mine."

I handed it to him and he took it without a single word and tossed it at the fainted Starly. While he did that I had to focus on my Starly.

"Turtwig Tackle one more time."

"Turtwig!"

He charged and the Starly fell, so I threw the Pokeball that I had in my hand. It got forced into the ball with a red beam of light and the ball wiggled for a while. I crossed my fingers for good luck and Turtwig had stood nearby the Pokeball in case it came out.

"come on, come on..."

It stopped wiggling and I felt proud. Turtwig picked up the Pokeball and than gave it to me.

"Thanks Turtwig."

"Turrtwiig!"

I petted his head and took it into my hand.

*Alright, my first Pokemon! Now, just four more.*

"GOOD JOB LUCAS! WE CAUGHT OUR FIRST POKEMON!"

He held his hand up toward me expecting me to give him a high five. I slowly rose it, but slapped it still.

"Now Dawn we have to get you a Pokemon so you're not behind!"

"uuhhhh... Okay, but I don't see any more around here, let's keep walking."

I looked at Dawn and I could tell she probably didn't buy any items either.

"Here Dawn, a Pokeball."

"Thanks Lucas. Can you teach me too?"

I wouldn't feel right if I declined and I had no reason to, so I just nodded.

"Oh, thanks Lucas."

Me and Dawn kept walking when all of a sudden someone got in between the two of us and put there arms on our shoulders.

"ALRIGHT! LET ARE JOURNEY BEGIN!"

I couldn't help but smile at him. I turned to them and smiled.

*It wouldn't be that bad traveling with these two...*
