Chapter 1
Katarina Claes peered through the bushes with an Ultra Ball in hand, she was currently on a mission to catch herself a Pokemon, hopefully something strong and not something weak, because it might be the only hope she has to avoid her doom!
-FLASHBACK-
A few days ago Katarina and her father Duke Claes had been invited to visit the royal palace because Katarina had become a candidate for Prince Gerald Stuarts fiancee, however during a walk around the royal garden with the Prince Katarina had tripped and hit her head causing her to regain her memories from her previous life in another world where she was a high school student living in modern day Japan, she had just woken up from a three day fever and the prince had come to visit her to see how she was doing.
Currently she was sat up in bed as Prince Gerald sat on a chair by her bedside a fluffy brown creature sat on his lap which looked like some kind of rabbit, standing by the window was Katarina's personal maid Anne, stood next to her was pink and white creature shaped like an egg with fluffy hair on its head and around its arms and midsection and in the middle of its belly there was a pocket with an egg.
''How are you feeling?'' Prince Gerald softly asked.
''Oh, I feel much better thank you, my fevers gone down'' said Katarina, before glancing at the fluffy creature sat in his lap as well as the egg shaped creature standing next to her maid, this was her first time seeing them, when she first awoke from her fever sleep she had only seen humans, but she didn't have time to think of them right now.
''I'm so relieved to hear that'' said Prince Gerald gently picking up the fluffy creature and placing it down on the floor so he could stand up and bow ''I'm so sorry that I caused you to injure your face''
''Oh no, I'm the one who should apologise'' said Katarina getting a shocked look from Prince Gerald, Anne and the egg shaped creature who exchanged shocked looks, not expecting her to say that ''I worried everyone and caused so much trouble''
''besides this is just a little scratch nothing to be worried about, I can easily just hide it with my fringe''
''It may not bother you, but I'm afraid most of high society won't see it that way, they'll likely see you as damaged goods and it'll defiantly hurt your chances to marry'' stated Prince Gerald.
''O-oh, right'' Katarina mumbled slowly, Gerald began to speak again but Katarina was now more focused on the egg shaped creature as well as the rabbit like creature sat on the floor besides her bed 'yep that's an Eevee and that's a Blissey, I guess I got reincarnated in the Pokemon universe that's pretty cool'
Katarina was brought out oh her thoughts as she realised the Prince was speaking to her ''so whats say you Katarina?'' he asked.
''Yes'' she said without thinking.
With that Prince Gerald picked up his Eevee and walked towards the door, his manservant waiting for him at said door turning back before he left the room he said ''then I'll come back soon to present myself''
Katarina waved as he left until she realised something 'wait what does he mean present himself' but she didn't have long to ponder over that as Anne rushed over to her.
''Lady Katrina, oh wow congratulations!'' Anne said excitedly with her Blissly bouncing on her feet behind them.
''Huh, why, what for?'' Katarina asked confused.
''What for?'' Anne said confused ''for your engagement to Prince Gerald of course''
Katarina's eyes widened ''say what!''
Later on after lunch Katarina was laid on her bed feeling exhausted, all throughout lunch her parents accompanied by their partner Pokemon, her mothers Salamence and her fathers Rhyperior, had chatted excitedly about her new engagement they were so wrapped up in talking about it they didn't even hear Katarina trying to tell them that it was just because of her forehead, she had been bemoaning being engaged to the prince and was now just thinking to herself as she looked in a handheld mirror 'compared to my previous life I'm definitely a lot prettier, but with these slanted eyes I look like a villainess in an otome game, in fact this whole situation reminds me of an otome game I played before I died, there was a Prince who was engaged because an evil rich girl blamed him for a wound she received on her forehead… wait that princes name was Gerald, what was the name of the girl he was engaged to…' her thoughts trailed off as she remembered.
''Katarina Claes!''
Katarina then bolted out of her room rushing past two maids standing outside her room who were quite shocked by her outburst, Katarina quickly made her way to the library to do research to find out if she was in the world of that otome game or at least a very similar one, after all Fortune Lover, the otome game she played, didn't have Pokemon in it, so maybe this was a world was different in some ways and after an hour of research, where she read books and maps and asked the maids questions in regards to certain topics everything lined up to this being the world of Fortune Lover only with Pokemon instead of magic, which meant…
''I'm on the path to doom!''
After a couple of hours one where she panicked and another where she had a large headache which caused her to remember some things from her current life Katarina had calmed down and started to think of a plan and thanks to the new knowledge she had regained from her current life she quickly managed to come up with one, she grabbed a bag from her room before heading towards her families Poke ball Vault.
The Poke ball vault was where her father stored all of his Poke balls, one of the reasons Katarina was selected as a candidate for Prince Gerald's fiancee wasn't just because she was a well bred lady but it was also because of her families prestige, Katarina's great, great, great, great grandfather had invented Pokeballs, this invention had obviously done a lot to make the Claes family very rich and very powerful as they now held full control of the Pokeball market, the Claes family also had several smaller noble houses under them, they would grow fields of Apricorns to make into Poke balls for a cut of the profit.
Katarina had never entered the vault before regaining her memories, not because she wasn't aloud both her father and mother had encouraged her to go inside the vault to get what she needed to try and catch her own Pokemon, but she had never entertained the idea of going out to capture her own Pokemon before now and was just content to wait until her father gave her one of his Pokemon, but things were different now so Katarina went inside the vault.
As she entered Katarina's eyes widened to the size of dinner plates as her jaw dropped, the vault was the same size as their ball room, only this room was set up like a library with shelves lining the walls and rows of shelves reaching from one side of the room to another, all of the selves full of Poke balls, each with a large verity of poke balls, there were poke balls, great balls, ultra balls, lure balls, heavy balls, dusk balls, feather balls, luxury balls and many, many more.
Katarina started to rush around the vault grabbing as many different kinds of poke balls she could she mostly grabbed Ultra and Great Balls though as she was hoping to catch something strong so she'd need strong poke Balls, she also grabbed a handful of the different verity of poke balls, it was imperative her plan work so better to be safe than sorry, because Katarina's plan was to catch a strong team of Pokemon have them protect her.
-FLASHBACK END-
Which brings us back to where we started, Katarina had been in the forest outside of her family manor for a couple of hours now and had found nothing that had interested her yet, a couple of pidgy's, a Bidoof and a few Caterpie, but nothing that would service her plans.
'Hmm, maybe I should just call it quits today and try again tomorrow' Katarina thought to herself, before looking down at the Ultra Ball in her hand 'I hope this plan works, the last Pokemon game I played was Legends Arceus, it worked there so I don't see why it wouldn't work here, well time to head back for today'
But just as Katarina was about to head back for the day when she heard a rustling in the bushes behind her, readying the Ultra Ball she had in her hand she approached the bush cautiously, but then a cry came from the bush which made Katarina jump in surprise, causing her to fall over and drop the Ultra Ball, she quickly scrambled to take a random ball out of her bag before throwing it, she heard the ball capture the Pokemon and rushed over to see if it was caught.
Pulling the bush open she saw that she had thrown a Luxury Ball and it had worked, she had just caught a Pokemon and now it was the moment of truth, it was time to see if she had caught something worthwhile, Katarina gave the ball a gentle throw and it opened releasing a burst of light which formed into what looked to be a small land shark, a Gible and it instantly made Katarina exited 'it's a Gible, a Gible, that means if I can get a Garchomp! This is awesome!' she cheered in her mind, she quickly got down to the little land sharks level and said ''hey there Gib-'' and the moment she knelt down the Pokemon jumped up and bit down on her head.
But… it didn't hurt if anything it actually kind of tickled, Katarina gave a small giggle before reach up and gently pulling the little land shark off her ''I'm hoping that means you like me'' she smiled putting Gible on the ground ''its nice to meet you Gible, I'm Katarina Claes'' Gible just responded with its usual response of its name ''I know its nice to meet you'' Katarina then petted it on the nose which Gible seemed to like as it nuzzled into her hand as she petted it, as Katarina petted her new Gible she noted how its fin didn't have a piece taken out of it which meant this Gible was female.
Then a sudden thought came to her ''oh here, I found these while I was out here'' she said taking a handful of berries out of her bag and putting them in front of Gible, the land shark happily ate the berries up happily ''I'm glad you like it'' Katarina was beaming before her face took a more serious expression ''Gible, I need to ask you something, do you want to be strong'' the small land shark stopped eating and turned to its new mistress, it simply nodded sadly before looking downtrodden, but it looked up when Katarina petted its nose again ''so do I, so lets become strong together'' Gible responded by happily latching back onto Katarina's head and the girl just giggled it looked like this was the start of a beautiful friendship between the two.
So this is the new story hope you like this, I've wanted to do it for a while so I decided why not I hope you like it, if you have any suggestions for what Pokemon to give Katarina go ahead, she's not going to have a set type and I've got a few members of her team in mind but I don't have the whole team planned yet, same goes for any Pokemon you think certain characters should have tell me and movesets because I don't think I'm very good at those, oh and before anyone tells me 'his name is Geordo' I know, I think his name is Geordo that's what my officially translated Manga says his name is, but I'm writing this on an application on my computer then cut/pasting it on the website the computer would keep auto correcting it to something else, Gerald doesn't do that so I'm calling him Gerald.
Also sorry for the confusing memory stuff in this, I wanted Katarina to be surprised about being in the Fortune Lover/Pokemon world for a bit so yeah... sorry.
Katarina's current team:
Gible (female)
