Last time:

Ash's P.O.V- Oak's lab, pallet town, Kanto

I sat down underneath one of Professors Oaks tree's at the Lab with my Egg next to me, I had been reading trough the Aura book I got last year, it said the way to discover if you had Aura or not was to meditate for a hour with nothing to distract you, so that is just what I have finally decided to do, I have finished class, cleaned up the lab and fed the pokemon, complete peace. I crossed my legs and leaned back against the tree, I closed my eyes, trying to meditate

3rd POV

what young Ash wouldn't realize for a few more years was when he was meditating, he did awaken his Aura abilities, as he meditates a faded blue glow appears around him, the tree and the egg, the young Oak tree suddenly shoots up from 7ft to 8ft as if it was nothing.

Now on pokemon:Ir

Ash P.O.V-Pallet town Kanto- 3 weeks before Ash begins his journey

OMG why does Gary have to be so annoying, thanks to him mucking about, both of us have to do extra chores for the Professor. Then again I got the easier jobs, such as replacing wires, fixing the fence, feeding the fire types and ect. Gary however got jobs such as cleaning every bookcase in the Lab, Cleaning all the Pokeballs, Putting all the books back in Alphabetical order, feed the water, Ice and dragon Pokemon and more. Professor Oak told me that there was power shortage to some of his equipment, that means going around the outside of the lab. as I Approached the back of the lab I could here crackling and what sounded like a Pokemon eating some wires. I got myself into a crouching position and reached into my backpack where I grabbed a special pokeball designed by Professor Oak, A normal Pokeball if thrown into a live-wire will fry however Professor Oaks special pokeball can work perfectly. the pokeball looks normal however it has a small lightning bolt on it. I looked around the corner, What I saw as a small yellow mouse that if I am correct is Pichu, he was nibbling away at the wires on the ground. I turned around the corner and said softly "Hey there little guy, I don't want to hurt you, just step away from the wires" the small mouse pokemon looked up at me and squeaked before running off and running up a tree, I ran across to the tree and calmly climbed it, I reached the top of the tree and looked across the branch separating me and Pichu, I Threw the pokeball so it would spin, It bounced of the Pichu's ear causing a red light to come from the ball, once Pichu was inside the ball fell from it's position onto one of the lower branches, I hoped down the various branches and arrived in just enough time to see the pokeball shake, not even a couple of seconds later my ears heard a familer ding as the Pichu was officially caught.

End of Theme

I climbed along the branch the pokeball was on and picked it up, since it was so close to the ground I just jumped down from the branch instead of climbing down. I went back over to where the wire was and quickly replaced the wire with a new one, I muttered to myself "Really wish that Professor Oak would replace those wires and put them underground" I picked myself up and walked back around the Lab, I held the pokeball containing Pichu in my right hand, grasping it tightly so it wouldn't drop to the ground, I wonder if pichu got lost from his pack or if even was part of a pack. I got around to the front of the Lab and went trough the large Oak doors, Gary was over by the bookcase with a feather duster, now that was a funny sight to see, Gary with a pink apron and a multi colored duster, keeping my foot on the door I pulled out my pokegear and 'Snap' my pokegear took a picture of Gary in the apron and duster, Gary as if he was a pokemon using swift swung his head around at the sound of the Snap, "Ash what the Hell was that for" I snorted "What?... You look absolutely hilarious in that Apron" his head sank to the floor "Please don't show it to anyone Ashy-boy" mmm.. I show it to someone I lose my oldest and best friends trust but it is so god darn fun but what do I value more... Definitely his friendship "sure gary but only because you asked, so where is the Professor" He looked back up at me with a small smile "Thanks ash, Grandpa is upstairs in his study"

I walked up the staircase to Professor Oaks study. Professor Oak's study is right at the top of the Lab, some believed that Professor Oak lived in his study but the members of Pallet town knew that he didn't. I knocked on the Dark Oak door that was the entrance to the Professors study, You know I have just realized something, Professor Oak really likes Oak, Oak doors, Oak tables, Oak chairs, Oak trees and more. I Heard a muffled "Enter" so I pushed the door open, Professor Oak was at his desk with papers all around him like always "Ah Ash what is it?" not even looking up from the paper he was reading trough, "Professor I caught a Pichu using that new pokeball you designed, the Pichu was nibbling trough the wires" at the mention of his pokeball succeeding his head snapped around "The pokeball, it actually works? I must let Silph co know almost immediately, Ash put the pokeball downstairs next to the starters" The professor rushed out the study and down the stairs to get to his communication phone. I closed the door over as I left his study and calmly walked down the stairs.

2 weeks later- 1 week before the journey begins

"Come on Pichu, come and eat with the rest of the pokemon" I said to the small Tiny mouse pokemon, Pichu shook his head but moved slightly closer to me. pichu would only allow me or professor Oak near him, if Gary got too close for Pichu's liking he would use Thunder shock. I don't know why but as Pichu got closer I felt something, it was faint but there was definitely there. When Pichu stopped and started to nibble at his food, a blue glow began to appear around his little red cheeks, The rest of the pokemon about 10 ft away turned to look at Pichu, then suddenly Pichu was enveloped fully by the blue glow... is he evolving? "Professor, is Pichu evolving?" I didn't turn around in case he was "Yes I believe he is Ash" I covered my eyes with my arm as the glowing got brighter and brighter and then it stopped, Pichu was gone and in it's place was a pikachu, Pikachu came over to me licked my hand then put his paw to my hand, "Ash get out of... too late" a bolt of lightning struck me, "Pikachu why did you do that? I thought we were getting along" he came over to me again and liked my before running over to the other pokemon.

Makoto's P.O.V- same time

"Mum, heading off for Professor Rowen's now, I will contact you when I get onto the Train and when I get I reach Johto, then again when I am on the train to kanto and when I am in kanto" I yelled to my mom, My mum Jogged down the stairs, "Going already honey? Before you go pop in and see you aunt and cousin, Make sure you do contact me Miss, actually I just remembered something, give me a few minutes while I get them for you" jogging into the kitchen to get whatever it was she wanted to give me, Ugh why do I have to visit aunt Joanne and Dawn, I mean I don't mind them but I want to be able to get a good spot at the Pokecenter in Goldenrod City, I waited for my mum to come back trough and after a couple of minutes she returned with a brand new white, one strap bag, "Mum is that a new Bag for me and my travels?" It looked stunning "Yes it is honey, along with that there is some new traveling clothes, Some poke-medicine, sleepwear, food and a brand new credit-card which will be updated every time you win a battle or I update it, the finale thing is a pokemon Egg, Now go and begin your Journey Honey" I ran towards my mum and gave her a big hug "I love you mum" she looked at me as if she already knew "I know dear and ditto back at you but go!" I picked up the bag from where she placed on the couch and flung it around my right shoulder "Thanks mum, bye!" running out the door.

I ran over to my Aunt's house and knocked on the door, "Come in" could be heard from inside. I opened the door to see my 5 year old cousin playing with the pichu doll i got for her a few months ago, "Hey aunt Joanne, hey dawn" I said, Aunt Joanne was in the kitchen cooking up breakfast for her and dawn, I saw her pop her head around the corner with plates full of food, "Hey Makoto, how are you" smiled at her lightly "Fine Auntie, just visiting my aunt and cousin before I begin my Journey" She walked over to the table and put down the plates "Well I am glad you took a few minutes out of your schedule to see us, I will give you a bit of toast with scrambled egg and bacon before you go, Sound good?" I walked over to Dawn while saying "That sound's like a great Idea Auntie" I picked up dawn and hugged her like crazy, dawn gave me small hug before saying "Ma...K...oto take me to brekie please" Of course Dawn still couldn't pronounce my name properly, that and how much food does this girl eat.

After having a bit of food and Saying Goodbye I was finally ready to set off, I tied my shoe laces and began to sprint out of town, Professor Rowen's Lab was in Sandgem Town which was about 10 minutes away from Twinleaf Town, I ran trough the route as to not have a pokemon attack me, I saw in the distance Sandgem town and I pushed myself to the limit. I reached the Lab quite quickly and opened the door, you see Professor Rowen Believes that knocking and waiting to enter is a waste of time so everyone know to just go straight in, I walked to the far end of the Lab where I knew Professor Rowen would be waiting for me. Just Like I thought the Professor was at the back with a singular pokeball next to him, He noticed me and said "So Makoto are you sure you want her?" I just nodded and replied "Yes Professor, She is the One for Me I can tell, It's almost like it's fate but She is definitely the one for me" He nodded at me and said "Here she is along with 5 extra pokeball, this is your pokedex and these are your train tickets, Now let Staraptor take you to the train Station"

1 week later

Ash's P.O.V- Ketchum residence- night before Journey- 20:55

can't believe it, can't believe it, cant believe it, cant believe it... Okay Ketchum calm down, sure tomorrow I begin my journey but I am prepared, egg in container check, New Bag check, Tents check, Books check, Pokegear charging, Medicine check, sleepwear check, Traveling clothes and hat che... where the hell are they, oh man I need to find those Items fast so I still have time to meditate tonight, so they aren't in my room so that means that my mum probably has them, I ran out of my room and leaped down the stairs to the living-room, My mum was sitting watching the last night of this years Pokemon League, It was a trainer called Ethan against Bruno of the Elite 4 but I didn't care about that, I looked around the room for my Outfit when I saw it in the bin except my Hat wasn't with it, I continued to look around the room until I saw a box with my name on it, I walked over to it and asked my mum "Mum is this from you?" without looking at me she replied "Sort of, it is Mainly from your father but I did some stuff to it, Your father got this for you and for Gary"

I opened the box slowly and inside was cloths and my Hat from lance along with them was a note from my dad, it read "Hey son, dad here, Tomorrow you will be starting your Journey, You shouldn't be wearing those old rags of mine on your Journey so I have bought you a brand new outfit, some advice for your Journey, treat your Pokemon well, get a rival and make friends, i hope you enjoy your Journey, Love Dad(Red)XXX" Thanks dad, I put the note back and put the lid back onto the box and picked it up "see you in the morning mum" I said before walking back upstairs with my new outfit in it's Box, I placed the Box on my Desk under my and got into my PJ's, I climbed up the Bunk and began to meditate for an hour, Every day I meditate I can feel I am getting closer to unlocking my Aura, I am close enough that I can see a Blue glow coming from behind a closed door.

The Next Morning- 06:59

I bolted up from my sleep exactly 1 minute before my Alarm would have gone off and woken me up, ever since I had started to Meditate I would always wake up right before My alarm, I got down from My Bunk and went over to My alarm and took out the battery in it "No point in wasting the battery in it" I knew my mom would be up in a few seconds to begin Breakfast, but breakfast would be in 30 minutes so I sat down and crossed my legs and began a light meditation to gather all my thoughts. me and Gary would get our starters and walk into Viridian Forest and separate at the River to go on our separate Journey. I don't know why but I had a feeling something was going to go wrong today but at the same time I felt as if it would be the start of something amazing which it is!

I heard my mum calling me down from downstairs so i picked myself up off the ground and headed out my room unlike last night where it was a rush to get down the stairs today it wasn't, I calmly walked down stairs into the dining room and sat myself down, not even a minute later mum came trough with Breakfast and put it on the table before sitting herself down in her chair, "So Ash ready to begin you Journey Today?" I cut off a bit of Bacon while she was talking and began to eat "Yea definitely, I wonder if my egg will finally hatch though" I checked the clock '07:40' "Maybe it might hatch, maybe it won't, have you had a look at your new set of clothes yet?" I shook my head "No going to look at them after my shower" after that we ate in silence for 5 minutes before I said "Going for my shower, try to avoid upstairs for the next 5-10 minutes" she nodded her head at me like she was a bobble head.

I walked out the shower with a towel around my waist, luckily my room was right across from the bathroom so I didn't have to worry about making a mad dash, I put my hand to to the lock and swiped it off, I grabbed the door knob and pulled the door open, I poked my head out to make sure my mum wasn't up here which she wasn't, I crossed over to my room and closed the door behind me, I walked over to the Window and pulled my green curtains closed. I let the towel drop to the ground as I picked out a pair of fresh pants and put them on, at the same time slipping on a pair of socks. I walked over to the box with my new clothes in it, I lifted the Lid off it just as I did last night but this time instead of reading the letter I out it on the desk. on top was the Hat that I got from Lance when I was 6, It was completely red apart one area at the front, it was completely white but had a small, Stretched out green sort of a U and a small L above it(New Movie Hat), I placed it on the doorknob. The next thing I pulled out was a black shirt with a tag on it, the Tag said 'Ultra strong, water proof T-shirt', I pulled the tag off it and read the back of it 'Adjusts to your size!' well this is useful, I Pulled it on and just like it said, it adjusted so so it fits just right on me, not too tight but not loose. The next Item was a pair of grey cargo trousers that had the same adjustments as the T-shirt, pulling them on made me like I was almost there.

I left the final item inside the box and put my hat back in, I would return for these when I get my starter, I began to pack my bag carefully, I placed the 3 books I was taking carefully at the bottom, my sleepwear was next in, then a few undergarments, then went in the Medicine, The last thing I put in the main part was my Egg. I don't know why but I felt that today would be the day my egg finally hatches, I zipped my bag closed and placed it by my door.

I took my hat off the golden door knob and placed it onto my desk, I looked around the room that I had stayed in or the last 10 years, To think that nearly 4 years ago on the dot me and gary met the Champion of Kanto and Johto Lance, the one who inspired us to become Pokemon masters, "I swear Lance, i shall fulfill the promise me and Gary made to you" clenching my right hand into a fist and pushing it upwards as I said it.

I walked out my room and walked down the staircase, I reached the living room and grabbed my pokegear from the T.V cabinet it was lying on, I also picked up my cheap earphones that were lying next to it. I opened up my pokegear and went to one of my playlists, The walk to Professor Oak's took about 10 minutes to so it is a good idea to listen to some music while you are walking, I went up to my mum and gave her a hug saying "Heading off to professor Oak's mum, will be back before I leave properly though" she turns to face me with a tear in her eye, crushes me in a ginormous hug, Once I got out the hug of doom I walked over to the front door. Once I was out the door I pulled out my pokegear and earphones from my pocket, I plugged in my earphones and opened my pokegear and started the playlist, the first song was a very fitting song for today, it was 'It's Time- by Imagine Dragons' one of my personal favorites, I started my walk towards the Professor's Lab.

Professor Oak's Lab- 08:58 AM

I finally reached the Lab, Normally I can keep my emotions in check but today was the day, the day I got my first Pokemon! I mean who wouldn't be excited, luckily I was able to put it all into one big grin, Standing over by the front door leaning against the wall was my oldest friend, Gary Oak. He was quite clearly in is own little world so I gave him a light punch to his arm to snap him back into reality, "Shall we head in good friend of mine" he snapped up and looked at me like I was crazy "Of course we shall Ashy" the Grins on our faces were infections so when we went inside and the Professor saw us his face broke out in a grin like ours with a few chuckles before snapping back into a serious face, "I am faced with quite serious situation at the moment, you know how there are 2 other trainers other than yourselves getting their pokemon today?" We nodded as if he was a madman for thinking we didn't know that "well when the truck that delivered the starter pokemon arrived this morning, it onlyarrivedwith3" wait what did he say? Gary asked him "Grandpa can you slow down a bit" he looked at us a tad nervous` "it only arrived with 3 pokemon" My eyes widened, that is extremely bad but he wasn't finished yet "I have already called the other two trainers to see if they would wait about a hour to get another pokemon but they refused, so here I am asking one of you two"

In my mind I sighed, of course this would happen today, today was going so well until now, Then i sighed again realizing that the logical choice for the person to wait for his pokemon is me, I already have a pokemon egg so I already have a additional pokemon technically on me, "Professor Oak, I have a better idea instead of making one of us wait give Gary his starter and I will take that Pikachu that I caught a few days ago" The professor gained a thoughtful look on his face before looking at us again "You know what Ash, that is an excellent Idea and for that and for being so noble and kind I will increase the amount of pokemon you can carry to 7" Yesss! I just made a very good solution, you know what maybe this was how it was supposed to happen, Because now this day has just got a lot better.

The professor started to walk away to get the pokeball but before he left the room he said "Gary you get your pokemon, you know which one it is, I am off to get Pikachu" Gary walked over to the mo the middle pokeball which both of us knew contained squritle the water starter, he flung the pokeball up into the air, the ball hit the ground and a red beam released the small water turtle, he walked over to him and got onto his knees, "Hello buddy, My name is Gary Oak, my Goal is to become the strongest pokemon trainer out there, would you like to join me on my journey" The small pokemon shook it's head up and down excitedly, Gary smiled "So do you want a name? do you want to stay out side of your pokeball?" the small pokemon agreed to both again "I think I will cal you Storm, how does that sound" the squritle began to dance, the two of them along with Squritle still dancing walked out the Lab but before he could leave Gary turned around and said "I will wait for you at the start of route 1 Ash"

A couple of minutes later the professor returned with the pokeball in his hand "Ugh let me guess, Gary picked squrtile and left immediately without picking up his pokedex of some pokeballs, also sorry about taking so long, the little mouse refused to go in his pokeball" I laughed because what he said matched exactly what Gary did "Yes he did Professor, I will take them to him" reaching out for the pokeball, the Professor gave it to me and I equipped it to my belt,I walked over to the table and stuffed my pockets with the Items before turning around and leaving the Lab, running down the hill to reach my house and grab my gear.

I arrived at my house and bolted up the stairs I grabbed the last remaining thing in the box, a jacket(His movie Jacket) pulling it on, it seemed to fit just right, on my desk was the final two items, the gloves and the hat, The gloves were dark green finger-less gloves with light green outlines at the wrist, I pulled one and then pulled the other one straight afterwards . T then picked up the hat and muttered to myself "Here we go, it's time for you to start your quest Ashy boy so let's show them what happens when you mess with pallet"

3rd P.O.V

The pre-teen's eyes gained a determined glint as he muttered to himself he brought up his hat to his black spiky hair using his other hand by grabbing the back of the cap he brought the Hat onto his hair sitting perfectly, his Hazel eyes glowed with determination, he grabbed his backpack and jumped down the stairs, he ran over to his mother, Delia Ketchum, Delia ketchum is a woman who is in her mid 30's, she had light brown hair that goes up in to a pony tail, she hugged her son to death saying "Ash you better call every time you reach a new town" Ash still grinning didn't complain and said "Of course I will mum, I have to go and meet up with Gary, I will call you tomorrow or the day after depending on when I arrive" She let go of her son and he bolted out the door and yelled "My name is Ash Ketchum, son of Red Ketchum the current Pokemon Master, I am 10 years olf and I am going to show why you don't make fun or mess with Pallet Town" running along the path to where route one begins

Ash's P.O.V-Route 1

Gary was lying down against a tree with his squrtile Storm lying on his legs, I coughed slightly to grab his attention "Ahh Ash your here, about time" Of course, he is so impatient "well for one I had to pick up your pokedex and pokeballs for you" I siad pulling them out with him quite quickly snatching them out of my hand trying to hide a blush "also I want to deal with something right now" he looked confused until I grabbed my pokeball off my belt "Oh you want to get Pikachu to respect and listen to you" I nodded "well me and storm will be Leaning against this tree looking tough to help" I looked at him "Thanks gary" I was about to press the button when I said "Ready?" "Ready" with that I let Pikachu out.

Pikachu looked around confused until it noticed me standing in front of it " Listen here Pikachu, I am now your trainer and you WILL listen to me, if you don't like that you can go trough those two behind you" giving my head a little nod at the two of them, Pikachu's body lowered itself a bit so I said "We can do this two ways, one where you and I become good friends and forget any of our past history and work as partners or you can do it the hard way and do it grudgingly" He looked up at me and his body lifted itself back up again "Pika?" "Yews we can, so start over again, Hi my name is Ash Ketchum, My goal is to be the best pokemon trainer in the world, do you want to join me in this quest?" getting down on one knee and putting my hand out for a hand shake "Pika pika" Putting his paw out and shaking my hand, "So do you want to stay in your pokeball or not? also do you want a nickname?" "Pika Piapi(No), Piika(y.s)" "Okay then so yoy don't want to travel inside of the pokeball and you want a nickname don't you, How about sparky?" He shook his head had the name "Okay how about Shazam?" He jumped up onto my shoulder and rubbed his cheeck against mine with a small spark coming off from his pouch "Shazam it is"

"Gary, we should scan Shazam and storm with or Pokedex's to learn the Gender, Ability's and moves, I will go first"

'This POKéMON has electricity-storing pouches on its cheeks. These appear to become electrically charged during the night while PIKACHU sleeps. It occasionally discharges electricity when it is dozy after waking up'

'This Pikachu is male and has the Ability Lightning rod, it knows the moves: Thundershock, Quick attack, Tail whip and Slam'

"sweet I have a pretty rare Pikachu what about you Gary?"

'SQUIRTLE's shell is not merely used for protection. The shell's rounded shape and the grooves on its surface help minimize resistance in water, enabling this POKéMON to swim at high speeds.'

'This squirtle is Male. it has the Ability Rain Dish, it knows the moves: bubble, tackle, tail whip and bite'

"Sweet you have a pretty cool squirtle Gary, wanna have a fight?", "He smirked at me "Of course Ashy-boy"

A/N-so there is chapter 1, sorry about such a late update but I thought I released this months ago, I saw pokemon the movie 20: I choose you, tonight and holy fuck was it good, it has fully cemented the pairing that I have picked for this story. Final thing is Makoto's full name is Makoto Verity Jenness, the next chapter should hopefully be up soon.
