11 I woke up to the sound of my favorite radio station going off. "This is 106.1 KISS FM's morning wake up call with Kid Kraddick in the morning.." I let the radio play through some songs as I got up and changed. I put on a white T-shirt and some blue jeans and grabbed my backpack. I saw a package on the table. It said: To Justin; From Jamie. I opened it up to find a berry juice kit. It had a juicer so you could make your own berry juice. It also had several jars already filled with all the other berry juices. I slipped it in my backpack saying a silent thanks to my sister. As I headed out the door I turned off the radio and checked the clock. It was 7:00 A.M. "Shoot, The ceremony is in 30 minutes!" I ran down the street heading for the lab. The lab was a couple of blocks away from my house but it was on a high hill and I wanted to get there first. I shot up the hill like a bullet and I reached the lab in a record time for myself. "I guess all those times I ran to the lab before to see the new pokémon paid off." I said to myself as I knocked on the door. Just as the door swung open I was knocked over from behind by none other than Brittany. I formed the fall into a flip and landed past the professor and right in the lab. I turned around and glared at Brittany. "Don't ever do that again." I said to her. "Well I'm just excited about getting my first pokémon like you and you were in my way." She said giving me an evil eye look. Turning to the professor I asked him if we could choose our pokémon yet. "We have to wait until Eric gets here." He said. Just then the door flew open and in bursts Eric holding his backpack with one strap and panting like a winded dog. "Alarm…clock…didn't..go off… sorry I'm late." He said after finally getting some air. I pulled out a water bottle and handed it to him. "Thanks.." he said while trying to regain his composure. When he was done we went to the main part of the lab. I walked up to a growlith on a medical table. "What's wrong with Quicksilver?" I asked. "Oh she just ate some meat a grimer had sluged. She just ate some poisin cure berries so she should be all right." I walked up to a table that had three pokéballs on it. They were on raised platforms with indentions in them to keep the pokéballs from rolling around. A glass dome protecting them slid away as the professor pressed a button. "You have first choice Justin because you came here first." He said from behind me. I picked up the ball that had a small flame inside an eye on it engraved in gold and turned to the professor. "Can I have Chartan?" I asked. "Of course," He turned to Brittany and said "You're next." I smiled and walked a few feet away. "Come on out Chartan." I said throwing the pokéball into the air. It cracked open on the ground and let out Chartan in a flash of red light. I stared in awe as I realized that posters really didn't show much detail. A lot of muscles for a psychic. I thought. Are you my new trainer? A voice said in my head. I looked around before my eyes settled on Chartan. Yes that voice was me, master Chartan said. I put two fingers to my right temple and concentrated You don't have to call me master you can call me Justin. I told him. As an afterthought I asked How did know what I was thinking?. I can read my trainer's thoughts Justin. he said. I was interrupted by Eric shaking my shoulder. "What?" I asked him. "You looked like you were staring off into space and the professor wants to give us a final speech." He said. Before the professor started speaking I asked "Did you know Chartan could talk?" "Yes I did but I wanted you to find out on your own," He replied calmly. "Now if you have any other questions I can get your stuff and you can leave so, are there any more questions?" When no one said anything he said "Good then I'll go get your guy's stuff." With that said he left to go into back room. "Hey Justin, you want to battle?" Eric asked. "Sure," I said before turning to Chartan "Do you want to Chartan?" Sure, I wouldn't mind a little excersice after being cooped up in that pokéballHe said. We walked out to the battle arena Professor Ketchum had built for just such an occcasion. A light breeze blew in through the arena's open sides and top. "Stratos, Go!" Eric shouted. The blue dragon automatically took to the air preparing itself for battle. Brittany took a seat on a nearby bench to wait and challenge the winner, her Vinetras sitting next to her. Chartan moved into a defensive position readying himself for the battle..

13 Chartan, use Psychic Assault! I said my eyes beginning to glow. A glow appeared in front of Chartan and he looked at Stratos who was flying in the air. What seemed like millions of miniature missiles of psychic energy at Stratos. Surprisingly Stratos did what looked like a barrel roll in the air and dodged all of the missiles. "Stratos, Flying Tackle!" Eric shouted from the other end. Let's do a nice physical workout, I said Duck and Claw his belly as he flies by
14 Smart maneuver, Justin Chartan commented. He ducked down and just as Stratos went over him he struck out his claws a scratched at the scales on his underbelly. With the combined speed of Stratos's dive Chartan cut off some off his scales causing a small amount of blood. With the added exhaustion of dodging all of the psychic missiles he crashed into the ground.

16 I rushed up to Chartan. Good job, Chartan! I said before turning to Stratos and Eric. "I'm sorry about the cut Eric." I said looking at the cut. I pulled out some of the regular berry juice and put on a spray attachment. I pulled out a piece of cloth, sprayed it with the juice, and wrapped it around the cut. "Thanks Justin." Eric said before he walked to the sidelines with Stratos. "You're up Brit." I said to her. "I am not battling a pokémon that has double advantage." She said. Just then Professor Ketchum came into the arena. "Looks like you guys took advantage of the battle arena," He said, "He is your pokédexes and the rest of your supplies. Vulcan is southwest of here by about ten miles so you had better get going." We waved to the professor and started walking down the road.
