"Ugh…. Oh my lord… what…. what happened…?" I asked myself. My eyes were still closed, afraid of what I would see considering I was feeling sore all over my body, plus, there was something heavy on my back.

"Oh, y-you're awake. Are you alright? You seem pretty hurt. Please open your eyes. Come on. It's okay." A voice coaxed. It was sweet, and soft. It sounded like it could call out anything and have it do anything it told them to. Which is just what I did.

I opened my eyes to see a brownish, quadruped, furry fox-like thing sitting next to me. A cream color fur bushed out on its neck, making a mane, and on the end of its tail. Which is also very bushy. The thing's brown, kind eyes stared down at me. One of it's rhombus shaped ears gave a small twitch as a bug flew past it's ear.

"Ugh… I'm… I'm fine." I said, trying not to sound like I'm in pain from trying to get up.

"Well, you don't seem fine. There's a town nearby. Come on, I can take better care of you there." The strange fox said.

"But… wait… I… ugh…." I stutter, trying to get myself up. "Help…"

"That's all you needed to say." The fox said. It went over to me and took one of my front legs. It started to drag me down what seemed like a dirt road.

I took this chance to get a better view of my surroundings. The road was in a sort of ditch form, with hills on both sides. It seemed like the hills went down a long ways, but weren't very high. Just over the top of the hills, I could see brilliant green trees and cotton white clouds. The sky a beautiful blue behind them to make an ideal portrait.

"H-hey. You can stop dragging me." I said to the fox. "I think I can get up now…" I bring my legs underneath me and lift myself up from the ground. It wasn't easy, but, I managed. I took a few steps forward, but forgot to move my hind legs as well, causing me to fall again. I noticed the fox giggling to the side a bit. "Hey! It's not funny! I don't know how this works!"

"You don't know how to walk?" The fox giggled. "How preposterous! Everyone knows how to walk! And you're a first form! By the looks of it, you've been that way for at least a few years! You should know how to walk perfectly! Unless, this is some sort of trick."

"It's not a trick… I honestly don't know what I'm doing…" I said, trying to remember how to walk, but failing. Instead of finding how to walk, though, I did find that, I can't remember anything. Not a single thing. Nothing. Except, my name, and what I was before…. this. "Wh-where am I?" I ask, starting to get a bit worried I can't remember anything.

"Why, this is Hilly Road. Everyone in this region knows this place. It's the main road throughout the entire region. Everyone uses it. Were you a wild Pokemon before?" The fox said.

"Wild…. Pokemon… what?" I ask, obviously confused at what the fox was asking.

"Wild Pokemon. You know, a Pokemon who was raised in the wild." The fox said, sounding like it was common knowledge and I as the dumbest thing in the world, which at this point, wouldn't be much of a surprise if I was.

"What's a… Pokemon…?" I ask, looking at the fox curiously.

"Oh jeez. Do I really have to explain this? I mean, literally everyone knows what a Pokemon is." The fox said, obviously annoyed now.

"Please?" I ask, trying to smile, but ending up unsure if I succeeded.

"Arceus…" It mumbled. "A Pokemon is a collective of species who all derive from a divine God named Mew. Mew was created by the Great Creator Arceus. We all share a small percentage of DNA that makes us part of the collective. But each species is different. Most of our species evolves into something else later in their life. Like you, a Bulbasaur. You will eventually evolve into a great plant Pokemon called Venusaur. Where as I, an Eevee, can evolve into eight different pokemon. But, I can only choose one. I cannot undo my evolution, and I cannot evolve again. Does that explain anything."

"Uh… you kinda jumped around a bit… I don't really know… It explains a bit, like what I am… and what you are… but… How do we evolve? Why can't we undo our evolution? What do I need to do to evolve?" I ask, becoming even more curious and confused.

The Eevee gave out a small sigh. "I don't know how we evolve, you just can't evolve, and you need 'life experience' or whatever that is to evolve… Or you need a certain stone or special rock to evolve…" The Eevee said, getting a bit annoyed.

"Oh. Um… well… My name's Silvus." I say, trying to change the topic.

"Call me Maki." The Eevee said. "Can you walk?"

"I think so…" I say, getting up and walking a bit. It's awkward, and I get the feeling it certainly looks that way too, but it works now. Just a little stumble every now and then. "Yep. I can walk."

"Good. I don't really want to carry you all the way to Yungi Town anyways. It's…. It's a long way…" Maki said.

"Well, thank you for helping me. And explaining things to me. But, do you mind if I ask a few more questions until we get to town?" I ask Maki.

"Yes. I do." Maki said, giving a slight frown.

Well, I guess this is the first chapter. Um, ask me what you want explained in the next chapter, or suggestions on characters. But yeah. I'm gonna be working on this as my main story for a while. I hope you guys have a great day! And keep reading!
