Chapter 2-Where we last left our hero, he was getting ready to get his first Pokémon, but sadly he wasn't that interested...

"Come on, lets go! I need someone other than my partner to trust. Yep, I'm talking about you! You seem perfect for the job! Now let's go!" He shouted, pushing me forward.

"Lyon...I'm not into Pokémon like you are...I honestly don't even want one. Can't you just tell my mom that I got one?" I pleaded as he pushed me along. Lyon shook his head quickly.

"Nope! Now, lets see..." He looked around for a moment before turning back to me."Bianca is probably out the Outlook..." He added. Most newcomers to Aspertia usually go the Outlook. That would be a good place to start... As we walk up the steps, we get into a little conversation.

"Taku...your lucky to be getting Pokémon and should be happy." He said.

"I don't know...I'm just not into that stuff..." I mumbled. As I speak, Lyon stops following me, causing me to stop as well.

"Go on and get your Pokémon! I'll wait here for you..." He pushed me up the rest of the way. In front of me was now a girl that fit the description my mom gave me. She didn't seem to notice me. I tapped her shoulder lightly.

"Um, excuse me..." I mumbled.

"Oh, it's so pretty!" She said, turning around. A small blush covered my face. She was actually kinda...pretty."Hello! Don't you agree?" I nod quickly to her question.

"My name is Bianca. Nice to meet you! I'm Professor Juniper's assistant. I'm here looking for a boy named...Takuto."

"That's me..." I said with a faint smile. She looked pretty surprised.

"Your Takuto? You are exactly what I expected! Pleasure to meet you! Now I have a question to ask you. Will you help me complete the pokedex?" She asked. I would do anything for yo- I mean...uh...

"Yea, I guess I could..." I tried to play it cool...how did I do?

"Really? Thanks! Filling the pokedex is totally fun!" Bianca reached into her bag and pulled out a capsule with three pokeballs inside."One of these Pokémon will become your partner! Now all you have to do is pick!" She added, letting all three Pokémon out. I glared at all three of them. The penguin one looked too happy...the pig just got on my nerves. I soon brought my attention to the green snake thing. It seemed just like me...quiet and un wanting.

"Can I get that one?" I pointed to the green snake. Bianca smiled.

"You chose Shivy, the Grass type! You guys are such a perfect match! So adorable!" She smiled."oh, I almost forgot, do you want to nickname your Snivy?" Nickname? Hm...I'm not really good at this type of stuff. Wait I got it...surprisingly.

"Ace..." I said.

"Nice nickname. Now that you've met your partner, you'll be getting a pokedex as well!" She smiled handing me a red and grey iPod of some sort. "Professor Juniper wants you to meet all the Pokémon in the Unova region!" I nod then look down at Ace as he looked up at me.

"Hello..."

"Hi..." Wait, is it me, or did that thing just talk... I looked back at the other two Pokémon.

"Osha!"

"Te-Tepig!" I couldn't understand them...yet, I understand Ace. I push that thought aside and look back at him.

"I guess we're partners..." I say, lifting him up to my shoulder and putting his pokeball in his bag. I preferred having him out here than in that weird device.

"Heeeeeey~ , how long do you want to keep me waiting?" Lyon said running up the steps. I thought he already left!

"Sorry..." I mutter as Ace popped up from behind my head. Lyon stared at Ace a bit confused.

"Who's this little guy?"

"Ace...my partner..."

"The pleasure is yours..." Ace said. Lyon looked at Ace, but all he seemed to hear was "Snivy, Sni, Sni..." Is it weird that only I can understand what Ace is saying? Hmmm...

"I know my sis already told you this, but take really really good care of him, got that?" He said poking my nose.

"The hell?! You know I hate that!" I almost shrieked making Ace laugh at me. Lyon pouted a bit. His eyes soon caught the sight of my pokedex.

"Cool iPod! Lemme see!" He snatched the pokedex from me and looked through it. He was like a kid in a candy shop.

"It's a pokedex, silly!" Bianca laughed. Lyon thought for a moment.

"Hey, do you happen to have any spare ones?" He asked Bianca."I want to get stronger and a pokedex would help a lot! Right?"

"Uh...who are you again?"

"Lyon! I need to search for something very important! And that pokedex could be the key to it!" Bianca thought long and hard. *sighs dreamily*

"Well...I guess it wouldn't hurt. I don't understand well but, going on a Pokémon journey is always good! Lucky for you, I have another Pokedex with me!" She went through her bag and handed Lyon a blue, white, red, and grey pokedex. The two seemed to be concentrating on each other, so I tried to take this chance to sneak away from Lyon, but he was always a step ahead.

"Let's see how good you are. I'll use my Tepig I hatched for an egg! Get ready Takuto!" What did I get myself into?
