Chapter 2
After a few minutes of trekking through the forest, I spot a clearing that could be Professor Birch's campsite. I arrive at the site and find a bag filled with Poke balls and a pouch that contains a Pokedex and MY LICENSE?
"Hey there you are, I've been waiting for you since I was 8 yea- ", I get cut off by a scream that I could only assume was Birch's.
"AAAAHHH, HELP ME SOMEONE…", he yells suddenly appearing out of the bushes with 3 Poochyenas just behind him.
"JASON GET OUT OF HERE NOW", he yells at me tired of running.
I don't obey him and instinctively grab a poke ball out of his bag not caring what it was that was inside it and clicked the button to release it.
"Come on out!" I yell out getting the attention of the Poochyenas while informing the Mystery Pokémon I would soon take command of.
"Torchic", the mystery Pokémon appears presenting itself.
I quickly try to remember Torchic's moves and remember one that stood out to me.
"Torchic, use Ember!" I command.
Torchic nods and lets out a series of flame balls that rapidly shout out of its mouth and hits all three Poochyenas while avoiding to hit the Professor at the same time.
The Poochyenas are hurt badly but are now angrier and have their attention focused on us. They start coming at us all three at the same time so I decide to drench them in fire to hopefully tell them they are no match for us.
"Torchic use Flamethrower, all you've got now!" I command.
"TOOORCHIIC" A large stream of fire erupts form its mouth engulfing them in it. The professor jumped out of the way, as he heard my command. The Poochyenas all scurry away. Two of them disappear while the third looks back with a face of pure hatred then disappears into the bushes.
"Good job Torchic you did great man!" I say proudly at Torchic. He nods and cuddles in between my legs.
"Thanks Jason, If you hadn't come when you did I would've been dog chow" he says almost at the point of passing out.
"Your welcome, what did you do that pissed them off so much?" I ask.
"I don't know I guess they were hungry." We both laugh then walk over to the bag with Poke balls.
"I came for my License and starter Pokémon Professor!" I state,
"Ah that's right, here gimme a sec", he says reaching into the bag. Pulling out my license, Pokedex and three Poke balls.
"Alright here's you're License, Pokedex, and your Poke balls along with a belt to hold them", he says handing them to me.
"Thanks and what about my starter Pokémon?" I ask confused.
"I think you got that covered!" he responds looking at my legs where the Torchic stayed circling my legs and rubbing its face on them cutely.
"I guess I do. Well Torchic you ready for our first adventure?" I ask.
"Tor... Torchic", he says excitedly while jumping in the air flapping it little wings.
"Well, that's that, I better head back now i think I've had enough of nature for now", he says jokingly. "Be careful now Jason when traveling alone. There are Pokémon that will try to hurt you for crossing into their territory without you knowing", he informs me.
I know about this already and have studied intensively about the territories of Pokémon anywhere I go.
"Don't worry Oak I wouldn't be here getting my first Pokémon if I hadn't passed the Survival and Tracking Tests", I say.
"Good Point well I'm off and so should you, good luck out there", he says shaking my hand and leaving with his bag of Poke balls.
I looked down at my Torchic smiling and hug him then returned him to his Poke ball and head off on my journey.
