I do not own Pokemon or Nintendo.
Chapter One: A New Beginning
The sun shone through John's window as a new morning began. Birds twittered outside, cheerfully singing a happy song.
John was a red head who had always dreamed of becoming a pokemon trainer. He was 4' 8", and he had turned ten just last night. The night before he had stayed up late, too excited to sleep. He eventually drifted into sleep.
John lived in a region called Correso, in the town of Apollo.
John slept soundly, dreaming of his pokemon that he would choose. His
dream shifted between from Charmander to Mudkip to Bulbasaur to
Torchic and beyond. He had no idea that he would receive a pokemon
that no one had ever heard or dreamed of.
In John's dream, he chose a starting pokemon, though he didn't know what it was, and was walking with his three other friends, along a path. Suddenly, he stumbled upon medium sized round object. He picked it up, and stared at it. The object had an intricate design, and it looked like a pokemon egg. The egg-shaped object began to crack. Through the cracks shone light. All of a sudden the object split in half, and inside was a blinding bright light, and immediately John's mind was filled with the white light, the soothing, beautiful white light....
John awoke with a start. He sat up slowly, yawning. John looked at his watch. It read 10:42. John muttered, "Crap!" He shot out of bed and raced down the stairs. He didn't want to be late for picking his starting pokemon. When he got to the bottom of the stairs, he saw his dad standing in front of the door.
His dad asked, "What's the rush?"
John replied hurriedly, "No time. Have to get to Professor Hemlock's lab to choose a pokemon." His dad stepped aside and John burst out of the front door. John sprinted toward the lab, hoping there would be at least one pokemon left. When John got there, he rushed inside. He stopped, panting. He saw his three best friends, who were Wanda, Bill, and Ivan, sitting on a bench near the door. Wanda was a blonde with blue eyes and had a knack for helping people out and being kind. Bill had brown hair and brown eyes and couldn't help being competitive. Ivan had dark hair and eyes that would change from blue to green to red, depending on his mood. Ivan was a smart kid and could build all sorts of gadgets and gizmos.
Wanda said, "Hi John! I got a Cynaquil!"
Bill said, "I got a Bulbasaur!"
Ivan exclaimed, "And I got a Mudkip!"
John panted, "Am I too late?"
Wanda said, "You might be able to get one if you hurry." John rushed into the next room, just in time to see Professor Hemlock say to a trainer, "Congratulations! You got the last pokemon I have!" The trainer, who was a boy, walked out happily.
John walked up to Professor Hemlock and asked quietly, "Are you sure there are no more pokemon left?"
Professor Hemlock said, "Oh no. I'm sorry. You will have to wait until next week. But I can give you a Trainer's license a week early." Professor Hemlock walked to a nearby computer and typed quickly. Several minutes later, a printer beeped and printed out a small card. Professor Hemlock took it and walked over to a small machine. He put the card into the machine and the card came out the other end laminated.
"There you go!" said Professor Hemlock to John. John took it, trying to hide his disappointment.
"Thanks," John mumbled. He walked out of the room over to his three friends.
Wanda queried, "Did you get a pokemon?" John shook his head.
Bill said quietly, "Oh man."
Ivan said to John, "Here. I'll give you one of the Poke-gear systems my mom and I made. I gave them to Wanda and Bill." Ivan rummaged around in his backpack and pulled out a small cube with a blue button on it. He handed it to John.
"Press the button," Ivan said to John. John pushed the button. The cube unfolded, and on each inside face was a different gadget.
John smiled. "Thank you, Ivan."
Wanda said, "Well, we're about to head out to Pineapple town. Do you want to come? I'll give you the first pokemon I catch."
"Me too!" exclaimed Ivan and Bill.
John smiled and said, "Sure! You guys are the best. First I have to say goodbye to my dad."
"Don't keep us waiting too long!" said Bill.
"Don't worry," replied John. "I already packed all my stuff." John raced home, faster than when he first went out to the lab. When he got home, his dad was standing near the doorway.
His dad asked, "Did you get a pokemon?"
John replied, "Sorry, no. But I did get a trainer's license."
John's dad asked, "Are you going to set out on your pokemon journey?"
John said, "Yep. I came home to get my backpack and say goodbye to you." John rushed inside the house, ran to his room, grabbed his already packed backpack, and ran back down the stairs to the front door.
John said quietly to his dad, "Well, I guess this is it."
John's dad hugged him and replied, "Come back soon and be sure to call me when you get to the next town."
John, with tears in his eyes, said, "Goodbye, Dad."
John could tell his dad was desperately trying not to cry when his dad replied in a trembling voice, "Goodbye, Son."
John walked out of the house and walked towards Professor Hemlock's lab. He hoped that he could come back soon to his house. He started jogging toward Professor Hemlock's lab. He was about 200 feet away from Professor Hemlock's lab when he spied a small round object, hidden in a bush. He walked over to the bush and pulled the object out. The object looked like a pokemon egg, was rainbow colored, and had a very intricate design. There were lots of lines crisscrossing all over it. He held the egg-shaped object and suddenly a thought came to him. Was this the egg from my dream?, John thought. It couldn't be. Oh well, he thought. He carried the egg the rest of the way to the lab. He saw Wanda, Ivan, and Bill standing outside the lab.
John ran over to them and said, "Okay, I'm ready to go!"
Bill asked John, "Hey, what's that you're holding?"
John replied, "I'm not sure. I think it's a pokemon egg."
Ivan said to John, "Maybe we can check the egg thing on my Poke-gear system." John pulled the Poke-gear cube out of his pocket. John pressed the button and the cube unfolded.
Ivan instructed to John, "Okay, point this little sensor here at the egg thing." John pointed the sensor.
Ivan then said, "Okay, press this little yellow button here and a picture of the pokemon should appear on the screen." John pressed the yellow button. A red question mark appeared on the screen.
"I've got no clue what the heck this is," a voice that came from the Poke- gear said.
Ivan said, "Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you. This Poke-gear has an AI personality."
Bill replied, "What does that mean?"
Ivan said, "The gear can talk and think."
"Okay, back to the egg. Just what is in it?" John said to Ivan.
Wanda said excitedly, "Maybe it's an undiscovered pokemon!"
Bill said gruffly, "Are we gonna head out yet?"
John exclaimed, "Oh yeah, we better head out." With that, the four set out to Pineapple City.
