It shows the Ultramarine Cruise heading towards the Sinnoh region as Wingull and Pelipper fly in the air as Aipom is on my shoulder. It the shows Misty and an unknown girl and Emile and an unknown guy they both are on the opposite sides of each other. Then it shows all of my Pokémon as Aipom jumps up and uses Swift it then shows Roxie and Wally walking as Roxie punches Wally in the arm. Adam is then seen looking out of the window gazing at the sunset. I am then seen running towards the end of the tunnel as I exit four silhouetted people are standing in a red background with Charon. It ends with me finding a box of items that were sealed off with the words on the box chipped away. I then pick up a picture frame covered in dust as I then blow the dust off it.
Last time on Pokémon: Alex's Contest Chronicles: The Second Performance. Alex has reached the Sinnoh Region and he encounters a Growlithe that is injured. Later on, he sees a mysterious Pokémon in the Lake Verity.
"Young man come with me." The older man said.
"Okay." I said, "But what about Aipom and Growlithe?"
"Don't worry I'll take care of them." Nurse Joy said.
"Come with me to my laboratory." The man said.
"Laboratory?" I responded.
"Yes how else do you expect me to do my research, in a can of beans?" the man said while still showing no emotion.
So a few days back a trainer had started his journey and he had a battle with the Growlithe but when Growlothe lost he punished Growlithe and he also starved and later he then abandoned Growlithe.
"What was the trainer's name?" I asked.
"Uh, his name escapes my mind." the man said.
"People like that shouldn't even treat Pokémon that way, Pokémon are supposed to be our friends, they shouldn't be left for abandonment.
"I agree." the man said.
"I'm sorry I never asked your name, mine is Alex." I said holding my hand out.
He faced my direction and stared at me without blinking and seemingly not breathing either.
"Okay." I said pulling my hand back and putting it in my pocket.
"So what do you study in your laboratory?" I asked.
We continued to walk until we reached his laboratory.
"Here we are." he said.
"To answer your questions my name is Sorbus, Sorbus Rowan and here I study Pokémon evolution." he said unlocking the doors.
"The evolution of Pokémon." I said.
"Yes, I have discovered that ninety percent of all Pokémon are connected in some way to others through evolution." Professor Rowan said as he put his glasses on his face and moved the paper on his desk in to a neat stack. "I'm also determining if evolution is a form of Pokémon reaching maturity, or a way for an "incomplete" being to become "more complete," as Legendary Pokémon don't evolve."
"Intriguing." I said as I looked around. "So do you know the other Professors?"
"Professors such as?" he said as he set his briefcase down.
"Professor Oak?" I replied.
"Yes, I do know Samuel Oak. He is an old friend of mine." he said.
"What about Professor Elm and Birch?"
"I know of both of them." Professor Rowan said.
"I think I should check on Aipom and Growlithe." I said walking past the fish tank that had Magikarp, Finneon, and Feebas in it.
"That reminds me can you get the three Pokéballs that are inside that case." Professor Rowan said.
I waked over and opened the case and took the two Pokéballs out.
"Feed them if you will." he said.
"You at least say please, not like I work here." I said pouring the food for the three Pokémon.
"What was that?" he said as he stood behind me.
"Uhhh I said, I should really work here." I said.
"Not enough words, you're missing some." he said waling away.
"So these are the starter Pokémon for the Sinnoh Region." I asked
"Yes." Professor Rowan replied.
"But there should be three starters." I said.
"A strange boy came here the other day and he was quite hyper and his word speed was impeccable should should be an auctioneer." Professor Rowan said.
"Adrian, it can only be him." I sighed.
"I will let you have one." Professor Rowan said.
"Really?" I said.
"But after the trainer today comes to pick one out."
"One of you guys are going to be my Pokémon." I said.
The Piplup at the end of the table frowned.
"Don't be sad we are gonna have fun."
Piplup's beak then glowed white and it pecked at me multiple times.
"Yeeouch!" I exclaimed.
"Oh yes and beware that Piplup has a very bad temperament." Professor Rowan said.
"You don't say." I said sarcastically.
"Your brand of sarcasm is very boring." Professor Rowan said.
Piplup then headbutted me and back and forth we both did not let up.
"I'm here." the girl said with the camera around her neck.
"Ah Lexi I'm glad you made it here." Professor Rowan said.
"Really he doesn't show it, does he." Lexi said to me.
"I know, the lack of emotion is just-" I stopped taking as he glared at me.
"Hey you look familiar do I know you?" Lexi asked me.
"Not that I know of." I replied.
"You're Alex Whitestone." she said.
"Yes that's me." I said nervously as she snapped many photos of me.
"My name is Lexi." she said hugging me.
"Oh are these the Pokémon I can choose from." she said pushed me to the floor and she she took photos of them.
"Great another hyper one." Professor Rowan mumbled.
"I heard that." Lexi said. Alex which one should I pick?"
"Maybe that Piplup over there." I said.
"I dunno it looks like it is a handful and problematic."
"I'll take this one." Lexi said holding the Chimchar in her hands.
"Here are your five Pokéballs, Sinnoh Dex, and here is also Chimchar's Pokéball." Professor Rowan said.
"Thank you very much." Lexi said.
"Looks like you get Piplup." Professor Rowan said.
"Great." I said sarcastically.
Piplup opened its beak as it glowed light blue it then released a stream of blue bubbles, my face and hair became soaked. Piplup started laughing and pointing.
"Don't worry Chimchar use Ember." Lexi said.
I was then covered in ash as the attack dried me up.
"Thanks." I said.
"Here is Piplup's Pokéball, five empty Pokéballs, and your Sinnoh Dex. It has the current Pokémon that you've met on record." he said.
"Thank you." I said. "Piplup return."
Piplup refused to go in the Pokéball.
"Fine then." I said
Later
"Your Aipom is at her full heath." Nurse Joy said as she brought Aipom out on the stretcher.
She jumped in my arms and sat on my head.
"Aipom me have a new friend, I guess?" I said.
Piplup walked away and sat in the booth.
Nurse Joy what about Growlithe?" I asked.
"She needs to stay here she is badly injured." she replied.
"Hey, Alex are you here to compete in the contests?" Lexi said as we both walked to the booth.
"Yup, so are you a trainer?" I asked.
"Yes and no, yes I'm a trainer, but I'm not collecting badges." Lexi responded. "Are you new to Sinnoh?"
"I'm new as well." Lexi said.
The medium skin tone girl wearing Dawn's Platinum clothes with black pants under the skirt. She had soft blue eyes and in her ears there were Pokéball earrings. She had long blonde colored hair with a streak of purple going down the left side of her hair that she put behind her ear.
"Hey Alex since we are both new here in Sinnoh let's travel together." Lexi suggested.
"Sure that's fine with me." I said.
"We are gonna be the best of friends. Say cheese!" she said as she focused the camera on both of us.
