"Speach"
'Thoughts'
The pokemon world, a world in which is inhabited by creatures known as pokemon. They live everywhere in the world, let it be underground, in the vast seas, the high mountains, across the plains and deserts, and possibly even all the way in outer space. They can be found across the globe.
This world is a place of fiction for us, a place in which was created by the minds of artists and cartoonists in our growing world. Many young individuals wish to one day truly travel the pokemon world and experience something that so many people wish for, and that is to become a real pokemon trainer.
But, what if a single extremely fortunate youth were to arrive in the pokemon world? Gifted with his knowledge of the pokemon world and its secrets, how would he affect the flow of its history? Will he bring forth a new age within the era? What impacts will he have? Those questions, are soon to be answered.
As now, we are able to see the silhouette of a young man floating in a vast white void, the silhouette slowly began to reveal the boy's features as he appeared to be around the age of twelve or so. His hair swaying slightly due to the void's environment almost feeling like being underwater.
The male had fair skin and a lean body, he had straight black hair along with white front bangs. He was wearing a tight black t-shirt with black jeans and tall white combat boots, around his neck was a long white scarf and on his wrists were fingerless black gloves with the finger holes being white.
"Huh? Where am I?" The young boy muttered in confusion as he slowly opened his eyes. This ended up revealing a pair of beautiful obsidian black eyes. He stared for a second before bringing up his hand and looking at it with half opened eyes. 'This feeling... I feel like I'm underwater, but I can breathe just fine.'
True to his words, it felt as if he was wearing a second set of clothes over his own current clothes. It was wrapping around his body like the feeling of water making contact with the skin while at complete ease. He blinked a couple of times before looking around in a confused manner.
"Where is this? I was just in my room..." The young male wondered. He continued to spin a couple of times around as all he could see was the vast endless color of white that seemed to meet to end. "What is this place? There is no possible way that this is one earth, there's no plane of existence on it that is merely the color white..."
"You are quite observant, aren't you? Young one?" A male voice was heard as the young male quickly turned to find the source. The voice seemed to be a pure voice, one of superiority as well as infinite power. "There is no need to be alarmed. So, please, may you feel at ease."
"..." The male looked around defensively for a second before hesitantly calming down, he sensed now malice in the voice and it compelled him to drop his guard as there were most likely no ill intentions directed towards him. "Alright, then who are you? Where are you? Where am I?"
"Calm down, Young Asbel. Your questions will be answered soon." The voice called again. The boy now identified as Asbel widened his eyes slightly at the voice knowing his name, though he couldn't say anything as he was interrupted by a small golden light that soon expanded and began to change shape in front of him.
"What the...?" Asbel muttered. He watched as the light grew to bigger sizes before slowly getting dimmer as it revealed a large figure standing on all fours in front of him, it had a body of white and a gold arch of sorts around its stomach area. It also had a relatively long head and red eyes. "No way... Arceus."
"You would be correct, Young Asbel. I am indeed Arceus, though not the one that you are thinking about." Asbel blinked in confusion at what the alpha pokemon was talking about, not the one he was thinking about? "You are referring to me as the Arceus in the pokemon world, but I am a different one. One that stands above all worlds, the true creator."
"Wait... then you mean to tell me that you're God?" Asbel said with widened eyes as he unconsciously took a step back in surprise, though it was more of a swim back since he wasn't touching any solid ground. Arceus, the one in front of him, nodded his head to the young boy's words.
"You are correct again, I am indeed the one you usually refer to as God. Now, onto more pressing matters..." Arceus said in a more serious tone. Asbel blinked in confusion for a second before narrowing his eyes as he also gave Arceus a serious look. "You are currently standing in a void, a void between all worlds."
"So, like a dimension gap? A space between worlds that also separates them from each other?" Asbel asked. Arceus nodded his head as he gave a small chuckle before saying. "You are an intelligent one indeed. So, I would like to make a preposition for you, Young Asbel."
"Huh? A preposition? What does it entail?"
"Well, first. What do you think of your world?" Arceus asked. Asbel blinked as he gave Arceus a look of confusion. Arceus, seeing this look, then further explained. "I mean as to what you see your world as? How does this world of continuous evolution of the human race feel to you as a human being?"
"Well... If I am to answer honestly, it's dull. It's a world of evolution, yes, but that's all there really is right now. My life has not much excitement and nothing thrilling that would exhilirate my blood." Asbel said as he looked at his right clenched fist. "I feel like... I just don't belong."
"I see..." Arceus muttered. Arceus then closed his eyes for a bit before smiling softly as he looked back at Asbel, who then looked back at the deity in turn. "Then back to my preposition then. How would you like to be transferred to a world of excitement? The world of pokemon."
"Wh-What? The world of pokemon... but, is that really a possibility?" Asbel asked with uncertainty. In his mind, he did truly want to go to such a world, a world where he can put his pokemon knowledge to the test as well as get himself the exhilirating life he always wanted.
"Hehehe... I am a god, Young Asbel. Transferring a single human to another world is but a simple task." Arceus chuckled. Asbel blinked as he had the courtesy to look a bit embarassed, he probably should have figured that a task like that was child's play to him. "So, how about it? Would you accept my offer?"
"...Yes! I want to be brought to a world where my life can reach new heights!" Asbel answered with certainty after a bit of a pause between his and Arceus's line. Arceus stared for a second before smiling as he nodded his head towards Asbel.
"Very well, then allow me to provide you with the necessary equipment," Arceus stated. He then glowed for a second before Asbel was doing the same, Asbel flinched for a second before calming down. The glow continued for a bit before finally stopping.
"Eh?"
Asbel suddenly felt that his body had gotten a bit heavier, he looked down to see that around his waist was now a white belt with a total of six holsters, which look much like the shape that would hold pokeballs. He then looked behind his back to see that there was a black backpack swung over his right shoulder.
"Woah... Huh?" Asbel patted his clothes but stopped when he noticed something on his left wrist. Bringing it up to his face, he realized that it appeared to be a watch of sorts which was mainly black in color along with blue and had a camera and a display. He blinked in surprise before fiddling with it. "An Xtransceiver... from the black and white games."
He then proceeded to press the blue button on the right side of it as another screen popped out, he then closed it back as he then heard Arceus getting his attention. "That device has information such as the world map, time display, and many more functions. And inside your bag that I have given you, you will find a pokedex and also a couple of more items that you will find useful."
"Thank you, Arceus." Asbel smiled. Arceus nodded with his own smile as he then held his front right leg to the right as Asbel watched and saw that a portal then appeared while swirling like a vorted. "This portal will lead you to the Kalos Region, a place I'm sure you know of. And before you leave."
"Hm?" Asbel turned to look at Arceus in confusion before seeing a small pokeball floating down towards him, he held his right hand out as it floated into his hand. It stopped glowing before he looked at it in confusion. "That right there, will be your partner, someone you'll treasure dearly."
"Thank you once again, Arceus." Asbel smiled as he then walked towards the portal as he holstered the pokeball onto the belt around his waist. He began to go through but stopped for a second before turning around and looking at a confused Arceus before pointing towards the God. "Arceus. I promise, the next time that we see each other eye to eye, I will be the strongest trainer in the world! You can count on that."
"Then I will await your return," Arceus smirked. Asbel gave a smirk in returned before waving as he ran through the portal.
Asbel could now be seen exiting out from a portal. Upon doing so, he looked around to see that he was standing in a what appeared to be a rather peaceful route which was clear of trees with only having decently tall grass being around. He opened up his Xtransceiver's map and looked at his location.
"Apparently this is Route 3, and I'm pretty close to Santalune City." Asbel smiled. He was glad that he was at least close to civilization and not somewhere far into the wilderness of this pokemon world. "I need to make sure that I have everything that Arceus said he gave to me, just to make sure..."
Asbel closed down the device as the time then displayed on the screen as he swung his backpack off his shoulder and placed it on the ground. He looked inside as it appeared pretty full as he was curious to see what was inside, though when he looked, he was honestly shocked at the number of items.
"Wow... There are potions, a couple of pokeballs, a tent, food supplies, and even a sleeping bag and more." Asbel muttered in surprise. It seemed that Arceus sure did provide him with pretty much everything that he needed for this journey. He then noticed a wallet inside as he took it out. "I guess this has a bunch of Poke that I can use to resupply, thank Arceus. Also, wasn't there supposed to be a pokedex in here?"
Asbel placed the wallet into his pocket as he reached into his bag and dug for a bit before finally taking hold of what appeared to be a square pokedex that was red in color with the center being a bit of a holographic image. It was the Kalos variant of the pokedex.
"Awesome, to think that I would actually hold a real pokedex in my life..." Asbel smiled. He then closed it down before placing it in his pocket as well as he fixed up his scarf before closing up his back pack. He then reached to his belt and took hold of his pokeball that Arceus gave him. "I wonder what pokemon Arceus gave me?"
He curiously primed the pokeball by pressing the center button as he then gently tossed it up as it opened and a stream of red light shot out before it began to form a small figure on the ground, Asbel had caught the pokeball before looking down to see the pokemon that had emerged.
"Woah..."
Asbel was now looking at a small bipedal pokemon with light brown hide which was covering most of its body with the exception of a cream-colored belly. It was wearing a skull over its obscured head with only the eyes being shown through the open eye holes of the skull.
"A Cubone, I definitely don't mind this," Asbel muttered. He could definitely think of many different strategies and methods of battle that he could have with having Cubone as his partner pokemon. Plus, Cubone was a really nice pokemon in his opinion.
He smiled softly as he looked at the small pokemon that slowly opened its eyes, it looked around curiously before looking up at Asbel with a curious look on its face. He then blinked a couple of times as he noticed something rather... abnormal about this Cubone of his.
'What in the world? It's holding two bones?' Asbel though in slight surprise. True to his words, the Cubone in front of him had a bone in each of its hands. Normally, a regular Cubone would only have one bone which it uses to battle, but this was a rather interesting development. Asbel just pushed the thoughts away as he smiled and knelt down. "It's nice to meet you, Cubone. My name is Asbel Quarter."
Asbel then held his hand with his palm facing upwards towards Cubone, who had stepped back a bit before looking at the hand for a few seconds before hesitantly walking up and placing its left bone on his hand while still holding onto the bone. Asbel smiled before lightly gripping and shaking the bone as if it was a handshake.
"Once again, it's nice to meet you Cubone. I'm your new trainer, so how about you and I work our way to the top of the world? What do you say?" Cubone stared for a second before cheering as it nodded its head while waving both arms up and down while still holding onto its two bones. "Great! We'll definitely win together!"
Asbel smiled as Cubone did the same with closed eyes. Asbel then realized something as he took out his Pokedex from his pocket before holding it up towards Cubone who didn't do anything as the Pokedex opened up and a bunch of information appeared.

'Wow, this Cubone sure is pretty good for being a starter, better for me I guess.' Asbel smiled as he read the information with surprise. He looked at Cubone and smiled before taking out his Pokeball and holding it towards Cubone. "We'll rise to the top in this world, Cubone. We'll take down the gyms, then the Elite Four, and finally the champions."
Cubone nodded its head in agreement as it cheered before Asbel then returned it to its Pokeball as he turned to look towards the direction leading towards Santalune City, and where his first challenge in this world will be.
"We'll win for sure."
