Chapter 3


After receiving his Pokedex, having a tearful goodbye with his family, and one long speedboat ride later Naruto found himself walking off the docks and onto the grass of one of the most famous places in all of Kanto; Pallet Town.

This seemingly average town may not look like much but to understand the importance of this historical landmark you had to understand the trainer that was born here. The same trainer whose image was immortalized in the statue in this center of this small town. He didn't look particularly special with his sleeveless jacket, undershirt, and hat but this man would forever be known as the boy that saved Kanto, Trainer Red.

The story goes that just over 10 years ago Red was a young trainer that was beginning his journey when he got involved in Team Rocket's scheme to capture Pokemon and successfully clone the Pokemon of Legend Mew. Red showed amazing talent and skill as a young trainer being able to not only stop Team Rocket in their tracks but also being able to expose and defeat its leader Giovanni; former Viridian City Gym Leader.

If that wasn't enough of an accomplishment when Team Rocket's cloned version of Mew began to rampage in Cerulean Cave Red was able to use his team of extraordinarily powerful Pokemon to subdue and calm it. The now named MewTwo developed a genuine respect for Red and due to his kindness decided to leave the Kanto region peacefully in order to find its own purpose.

You can understand that after accomplishing such feats the people of Kanto were almost begging for Red to become their regional champ, hell Lance was more than willing to give up the seat. So it was a shock to everyone when Red declined saying how the job didn't suit him and he much preferred traveling and spending time with his Pokemon. The last the public had heard of him was that he created a school on Mt. Silver where he mentored his apprentices and any trainer willing to make the trip to see him.

Anyway hero worship aside Naruto finally took his eyes off of the statue and made his way towards the entrance to Route 1 ready to officially start his journey.

-X-X-X-

Naruto and Larvitar had run a gauntlet of the Pokemon in Route 1 leaving many defeated Rattata and Pidgey in their wake.

"Larvitar use Bite on Rattata and send it flying." Naruto ordered Larvitar who sunk its fangs into the tail of the purple rat Pokemon and threw it against a nearby tree unconscious.

"Good job buddy this makes it our 10th victory." he complimented rubbing Larvitar's horn.

"Spearow!" came the yell of a group of bird Pokemon that were disturbed by the battle that they saw as encroaching on their territory.

Naruto pulled out his Pokedex to scan the new bird-like Pokemon.

Spearow, the Tiny Bird Pokemon. A Spearow is very protective of its territory, it flaps it's short wings busily to dart around at high speeds

The five Spearow horde flew side by side with the one in the center, obviously the leader, buffing its chest out trying to look more intimidating.

"If it's a fight you guys want then we accept. Let's go Larvitar!"

[Larvitar vs Spearow Horde]

The Spearow on the far right started the battle flying in with its beak glowing white; a Peck attack.

"Larvitar use Headbutt!"

Larvitar's head and the Wild Spearow's beak collided in a brief test of strength before Larvitar's head proved stronger, knocking the Wild Spearow into the grass with swirling eyes.

Before he could celebrate the small victory three of the other Spearows flew towards Larvitar with white beaks and outlined with red energy; a group Fury Attack.

"Larvitar use Iron Defense to withstand the damage." Naruto ordered knowing that Larvitar would be to slow to avoid the onslaught of attacks to come.

It's body became outlined in light blue energy before he began to shine.

The Spearow swarmed the tiny rock type and pecked him with all their might. Fortunately Larvitar's defenses were strong enough to weather the blows with only small scratches to show for it.

Just as the Spearows group attack ended and Larvitar released Iron Defense the last Spearow came flying at his exposed side leaving a white trial behind it.

'That Spearow not only knows Quick Attack but it was smart enough to let the others rush in and attack Larvitar when he was vulnerable.' Naruto thought with a smile on his face; this battle just got interesting.

"Larvitar get up and use Screech then Headbutt!"

Larvitar released a high-pitched yell that made the flock fall out of the sky in pain. Before one of the Spearow could even land it met the hard head of Larvitar that knocked it right out.

When the 3 remaining Spearow were able to stand up they were all met with the harsh glare of Naruto's starter ready for more battling.

Two of the Spearow avoided the glare while the one in the middle met it head on. Naruto just knew that one was the leader and the one who knew Quick Attack.

The lead Spearow let out a commanding squawk before the other two bird Pokemon flew away, making the previous one sided battle into a one on one duel.

"Larvitar use Bite!"

The Rock Skin Pokemon charged in with its tiny fangs bared to bite one of Spearow's wings but the bird proved to too mobile by flying around Larvitar and hitting its back with a Quick Attack.

Before Larvitar could recover the Wild Spearow rushed at him with a Fury Attack.

"Larvitar use Iron Defense and wait."

The Tiny Bird's blows were powerful and were able to push Larvitar further back.

"Now Larvitar grab Spearow and give it a Headbutt."

Spearow was shaken by the blow but proved to be sturdier than the others because it was able to get back up.

"This guys tough but I think these next attacks will decide it. Larvitar finish this with a full power Headbutt!"

Larvitar and Spearow met in a clash of Headbutt and Quick Attack that left both Pokemon struggling to stay standing.

However after a couple seconds the damage proved to be too much for Spearow who fell to the ground and didn't get up.

"Alright go Pokeball" Naruto stated throwing the ball at Spearows prone body hoping for an easy capture.

"... ... CLICK"

"Yes" he exclaimed rushing over to pick up the ball of his first official capture as a Pokemon trainer.

"We did it! We caught a Spearow!"
