I gotta get what Pokémon they got down fast, cause I'll forget. So here's where the gang gets their first Pokémon. If you think I'm insane for assigning certain Pokémon to people, just ask me why I it, cause I do have my reasoning, believe it or not. Some of that reasoning is questionable, but there is some reasoning that is totally obvious and genius.

I still do not own YGO GX or Pokémon. I don't even live in Japan.

"Does anyone else think this is happening a little fast?" Jaden questioned. The group was walking back to the lab, led by Professor Oak, with Jaden and the others in a clump behind him. "I mean, a day ago we didn't even know what Pokémon were, but now, here we are, in a whole other dimension. Heck, we're not even allowed to duel anymore!"

"Oh, you're allowed to duel," Professor Oak called back. "You'll just have to sit down and play on those mats, like you did in elementary school. I assume you brought your decks? Plus, you are the only people in this dimension who even know how to duel, so you'd have to do it amongst yourselves."

"Seriously?" Jaden grinned widely. "That's awesome!"

"Now, here we are," Professor Oak stopped in front of the house they had noticed earlier and unlocked the door. "Most of your possible Pokémon are in here. I take you each aside and allow you to pick one. I currently have five with me, one of which—Aster, right?—has already met."

Aster scowled at the memory as the group entered the house.

"Aster, since you have the most, albeit miniscule, experience with Pokémon, you may choose first." Professor Oak moved to an adjoining room. "Follow me. The rest of you, stay here." After Aster was through the door, Oak shut it behind him. "Now, Aster, since there was supposed to be eleven of you, I have prepared eleven Pokémon for you to choose from."

Professor Oak pulled five Pokéballs from his bag. "These are Pokéballs. As you have already learned, they contain your Pokémon."

Professor Oak released five red beams from the balls, forming the Swablu, a brown Pokémon with a skull covering its head (Cubone), a small, blue, penguin-like Pokémon (Piplup), an orange, monkey-like one (Chimchar), and a black Pokémon that looked like a floating sheet with eyes, a red necklace, and black and red hair (Misdreavus).

"See any you like? There's ten more, if you don't," Professor Oak stated.

"Uh…can I see the others?" Aster asked tentatively.

Professor Oak released ten more Pokémon from Pokéballs lying on a desk. (A/N: I give up describing them—just Google Images for them, cause I spelled them all right): Eevee, Cyndaquil, Igglybuff, Totodile, Ralts, and finally, Riolu.

"Some of these were imported from other regions," Oak explained. "The Chimchar, the Piplup, and the Riolu, for example, are from the Sinnoh Region. All of these Pokémon are also very rare."

Aster blinked.

"Oh, oops!" Professor Oak laughed. "I forgot to tell you! Certain types of Pokémon found in the wild are 'rare.' That means they are very hard to find. There are also common Pokémon and legendary. There is only one of each type of legendary; odds are you will never meet one. Common Pokémon are all over the place; the Zigzagoons you saw earlier were common. Also, this world is separated into four major regions: Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh. There are other, smaller, regions but those are the important ones. We are currently in Kanto."

"Uh…okay. So they're like continents."

Professor Oak laughed. "Something like that. So, go on, choose. But chose wisely—this will be your traveling companion, and the one that will most likely help you defeat Team Rock—er, Light. Team Light."

Aster nodded. "Right. Can I have…that one?" He pointed to a small, black and blue Pokémon that slightly resembled a dog on its hind legs.

"Riolu?" The Pokémon tilted its head and smiled. At least, Aster thought it smiled. "Rioluuu!" The Pokémon ran at Aster and latched onto his leg, like a toddler. A deformed, blue toddler who could only say "Riolu."

"Uh…" Aster stared helplessly down at it.

"Riolu? Excellent choice!" Professor Oak handed Riolu's ball to Aster. "You can nickname it, if you want. You don't have to right now, but if you want to later, you need to go to the Name Rater in Slateport City."

"Um…I'll keep it at 'Riolu.'"

"Very good. Now, be sure to pass on to information I told you about the regions and the nicknames to the others. And pick one of your friends to send in."

"Alright…um…" Aster glanced down at his leg and the Pokémon attached. "What should I…?"

"Tell it to return to the Pokéball. Say, 'Riolu, return.'"

"Riolu, return." The Pokémon dissolved in red light and was sucked into the ball. "Cool. I guess I'll send in…Jaden." Aster walked outside, while calling: "Jaden, it's your turn!"

"ALRIGHT!" Professor Oak heard the enthusiastic Slifer yell. "MY TURN!" Jaden ran in before the door even swung shut behind Aster.

"WhodoigetwhodoigetwhodoiGET?!" Jaden asked, so fast Oak could barely tell what he was saying.

"Well, you, uh, get to choose from these ten…" Professor Oak began. He then told Jaden what he had told Aster—the rarities, the regions, and recalling and nicknaming the Pokémon. "So…who would you like?"

"Hmm…I really like monkeys so…that cute little guy, right there!" Jaden pointed to an orange monkey with a flame for a tail—Chimchar.

"Chimchar? Good choice. Nickname?"

"Hmm…Sushi Lollypop the Fifth! I'll call him Sushi!"

"Um…o…kay…" Professor Oak sweatdropped, recalled Sushi Lollypop the Fifth into its Pokéball, and handed the ball to Jaden. What's with this kid? "You can pick someone else to come in, now."

"Alright!" Jaden skipped out of the room, shouting: "Syrus! Your turn!"

The aforementioned bluenette strode in nervously. Professor Oak gave him the information needed as well. "So, choose your Pokémon."

"Um…I guess…I'll take…that one?" It was more of a question than a decision. "The, uh, penguin-thing."

"Piplup? You want to nickname it?"

Syrus shook his head. "Nah. I'll keep it at…uh…what—?"

"Piplup."

"Right. Piplup."

"Piplup!" The penguin Pokémon cheered.

"Piplup, return!" the Piplup retreated back into its Pokéball and Professor Oak handed it to Syrus. "There you are. Now, you can choose someone else to come in."

"Uh…okay. Atticus?" Professor Oak heard Syrus say as he left.

He was soon replaced by a brunette in an Obelisk blue uniform. "What's up, dude?" That was when he spotted Igglybuff. "Oh, my God! That's the cutest thing ever!" Atticus ran up to the pink ball-shaped Pokémon and wrapped it into a vice-like hug. "Yes, you are the cutest, yes, you are!"

Professor Oak laughed. "Looks like you've already chosen your Pokémon. There's a few things I need to tell you before you leave, though." Professor Oak gave him the spiel. "Would you like to nickname it?"

Atticus glanced at the Pokémon, which he was still squeezing. "Yeah! How about…Cuddles!"

Professor Oak nodded. "Now, would you returning Igg—Cuddles to its Pokéball?"

"Sure! Cuddles, return!"

"Now, pick someone else to get their Pokémon."

"Alright! Uh…Jesse! Your turn!" (A/N: I'm too lazy to go through everyone else, so I'll just skip through their dialogue…)

After Jesse chose his Eevee, he sent in Jim, who chose Cubone, which he named Skull Knight (Professor Oak decided that Jim was the strangest of the bunch, including Jaden—and that's saying something). Jim, in turn, sent in Axel, who chose Cyndaquil, named it Cinder, and sent in Adrian, who chose Swablu. Since no one else was left, Adrian had no choice but to pick Chazz.

"Here you are…Chazz, right?"

Chazz nodded at Professor Oak's statement and surveyed his options—Misdreavus, Totodile, and Ralts. "Don't bother telling me about regions, returning to the balls, et cetera; everyone else already told me."

Chazz's eyes lingered on Misdreavus for a moment, but he quickly looked away. The ghost Pokémon floated over to him and cooed. "Misdreavus."

"I guess I'll take that blue crocodile-thing." The Misdreavus sagged when it heard Chazz, who went over to pet Totodile. "ACK!" Totodile had decided that it wasn't too fond of Chazz; it had latched its mouth onto Chazz's hand. "GET IT OFF!"

"Totodile!" Professor Oak scolded. The Totodile immediately let go, leaving Chazz's hand throbbing.

"S-scratch that…" Chazz murmured. "I guess I'll take the floaty one. ("Misdreavus!" Misdreavus exclaimed happily.) And I'll nickname it Myst. With a 'y'."

"Very good then. Now join your friends, show off your Pokémon, do whatever you nine are doing out there. Then, I'll give your more information about your journey and the threat you'll be fighting."

As Chazz walked out the door, Professor Oak snickered. This is an awfully strange bunch. I'm glad I'm not that oddI'm also glad I don't walk around with a crocodile all the timeI wonder if that thing ever gets heavy
