Prologue (Team Yellow's Pokélog)
My name's Janet Harris, I'm from the Reflexion Kingdom in Mildew, and I'm an eighteen-year-old pokémon master. Some people think it's amazing that I'm a pokémon master at the age of eighteen, but other people think it's pretty pathetic that it took me three whole years to get there. Either way, I did have a lot of fun on my pokémon journey. My two best friends, Sand-Cloud Pluff and Gelby Chu, came with me, which made it a lot more enjoyable. My friend Luke Smytheson was also training to become a pokémon master, so we met up with him a lot, too. Of course, some of the best memories are of the friends I met along the way . . . Simone Earl, Josh and Kew Gibbs, Allin Martin, and the team known as The Stars, which is made up of Sylvia Evans, Lia Dunlap, Tara Floyd and Vanessa Sykes.
Despite all the fun, it wasn't all that easy. I had a few rivals to contend with. These two older trainers called Ace and Kat kept showing up and bugging me, but after a while they must have headed off in a different direction to me, 'cause then I didn't see much more of them. Then there was my number one rival, Mitch Orien. He used to be best friends with Luke, but then . . . well . . . Mitch and I just don't get along, OK, and that's all I'm saying about it. So yeah, basically I think I kind of drew Luke away from Mitch, 'cause he knew that I didn't like him . . . and I kind of feel guilty about ruining their friendship, but on the other hand I'm glad because Mitch is such a creep and I'm really glad Luke doesn't hang around with him anymore. Anyway, Mitch was always ahead of me during my pokémon journey, and he was always showing off because of it, but then Luke and I both beat him in becoming pokémon masters . . . and you should have seen the look on his face, it was so funny! We sure showed him!
I haven't really seen that much of my trainer friends during the past year, 'cause I had to go back to school for a year so that I'd actually have some kind of qualifications. I've finished school now, which is great, because it's just in time for the Master Tournament, which is a pokémon battling competition exclusively for pokémon masters, held all the way over in Aspen. It'll be my first big pokémon tournament that I'll compete in, and I can't wait to see how well my pokémon match up against the competition. The best part is that the top trainers win a rare pokémon! Speaking of which, Aspen has a whole lot of pokémon that don't live in Mildew, so while I'm there I'll be sure to catch as many as I can . . . this is gonna be so cool!
