Nils and Ren have been traveling through Viridian Forest for several hours. The problem was, however, they were lost. At one point, the two boys decided to take a lunch break.

"Hey Nils,' said Ren, "How much progress do you think we'll make because I'm starting to get scared."

"I don't know," answered Nils, "We'll just go as far as we can."

Suddenly, Nils heard the sound of buzzing. Curious, he decided to find the source believing it was a Pokemon. So he and Ren followed the buzzing until they found the source which was a Ledyba.

"What Pokemon is that," asked Ren.

"It's a Ledyba," answered Nils, "From what I've heard, they're not common in this forest. I think I'll catch it."

Nils then sent out his Bulbasaur who was eager to make a new friend.

"Bulbasaur use tackle," commanded Nils as Bulbasaur used the selected move.

The attack hit Ledyba and it then retaliated with a move that appeared to be Comet Punch

"Use Vine Whip to knock it away," said Nils which led to Bulbasaur doing as instructed. "Now use Sleep Powder," and Bulbasaur used the move of choice which put Ledyba to sleep."Alright go Pokeball," Nils shouted as he threw a Pokeball at the sleeping Ledyba.

Once the Pokeball hit it's target, The Ledyba went inside it and after a few shakes, the capture was a success.

"Alright Bulbasaur we caught a Pokemon," cheered Nils who was excited of the fact he made his first capture.

"Bulba," said Bulbasaur who was happy to have a new friend.

"Is that how most people get new Pokemon," asked Ren "Because I want Pokemon too but I don't think I am good at battling."

"Don't worry," said Nils, " There are other ways you can get Pokemon you don't have to battle all the time." "Anyway, come out Ledyba," said Nils as he sent out his new Ledyba.

The Ledyba was still sleeping from the Sleep Powder so Nils used an Awakening on it which woke it up.

"Hi Ledyba," said Nils, "I'm sorry for attacking you like that" "It's just you're not common in this area so I had to catch you." "Anyway my name is Nils."

Ledyba was surprised at first due to being captured while sleeping but it smiled at it's new trainer none the less. Nils then checked his Pokedex and from it he learned that Ledyba is a boy and it's moves are Comet Punch and Supersonic.

"Help," shouted shouted a young woman who appeared out of nowhere and was being chased by a bunch of Beedrill. The woman seemed to be close to twenty years old, She had short, orange hair and was was wearing a brown jacket.

"How are we going to help her," asked Ren, "There's too many of them."

"I got an idea," said Nils, "Ledyba use Supersonic on all of the Beedrill."

Ledyba did what he was told to do and managed to get all of the Beedrill with it's Supersonic which confused all of them.

"Hurry, let's get out of here while they're confused," Nils said to the woman and they all fled until they were out of range of the Beedrill.

"Thanks," said the woman, "I don't know what would have happened if I didn't run into you." "My name is Firenze by the way."

"Hello, I'm Nils," introduced Nils.

"And my name is Ren," introduced Ren. "Hey I was wondering why were all of those Beedrill chasing you."

"Well," Said Firenze, "I was training my Litleo because it's young and weak for the time being when it accidently hit a tree with her Ember attack." "The tree caught fire and a bunch of angry Beedrill appeared because the tree was their home."

"I guess that's a good reason for Beedrill to chase someone," said Nils, "By the way do you know how we can leave this forest?"

"Yeah I do," answered Firenze, "Were actually close to Pewter City but since it's late I suggest we have dinner and rest for the night first." "By the way, I'm on a journey to improve myself as a Gym Leader but after that incident, I'm scared to go alone." Can I go with you two?"

"Sure why not," answered Nils, "But if you're a Gym Leader, Can I have a battle with you when we get to your Gym?"

"I'd be happy too," answered Firenze, "But my Gym is at Cinnabar Island, it may take a while until then."

"Ok," said Nils "Anyway we have had a crazy day today so let's have dinner."

And so Nils, Ren, Firenze and their Pokemon had dinner and after a little while, they set up a tent and went to sleep. As he slept, Nils wondered what his first Gym Battle would be like.
