The path I chose went to a lake with a small beach next to it, it looked nice. I walked over to the lake, just looked across it, nothing but trees surrounding the place, well besides this beach. But then something caught my attention. A ripple in the water, then a yellowfin appeared out of the water. Without thinking I throw my bag on the ground and dug out a pokeball. I pulled it out and increased the size, then I threw it at the creature. The ball hit the creature and it opened in midair and a red beam came out of it, it then went back to the ball and the ball hit the water. "Shit."I said to myself. I didn't think this through. "Now my socks have to get wet." I told myself. But then I remembered, I have squirtle. I pulled out squirtles ball. "Squirtle, I choose you!" I said as I threw the ball in the air. out popped squirtle. "Squirtle!" He said proudly. I smiled, it felt so fun to say that. "Squirtle, I just caught a pokemon, I need you to go get the pokeball out of the water." I told squirtle. "Squirt." He said, then he jumped in the water. The water was a bit murky so I couldn't see where he was. I tried to look but I couldn't see him. But then he emerged from the water with a pokeball in his mouth. "Good job squirtle." I said rubbing his head. He then put the pokeball in front of me. "Squirtle!" He said happily. I then picked it up. "This is it, after 16 years this will be my first pokemon that I caught, are you ready Squirtle?" I asked Squirtle after my small speech. Squirtle nodded his head. I got on my knees and picked up the ball, then I pressed the white button. The pokeball opened and a red beam came out. It formed wat looked like the shape of a fish. "KARP KARP!." It said loudly. It was red, with yellow fins on it bottom and top, with a white tail fin, and then t had yellow strings that looked like a moustache on it's open mouth. It looked retarded too because it was flopping around all over the place saying its name. "What is it?" I asked out loud. Squirtle shrugged his shoulders. I pulled out the pokedex and pressed the scan button and aimed it towards the fish. Then a screen popped up and a robotic voice started to talk. "Magikarp, a water type pokemon. Magikarp is a very weak pokemon that shouldn't be on the battlefield, but better suited for the dinner plate." The voice said. "KARP KARP!" It said again. I looked at him, but it his big eyes I could tell he was a fighter. "No, you are now my Magikarp and i will be make you the strongest Magikarp in the world, but i will call you bud, that is your name now." I told Bud while standing up. "Karp!" bud said, but it wasn't loud or random, he said it confidently. I then opened his pokeball and he was sucked back inside of it. "Squirt?" Squirtle asked me. "Your turn now." I told him. I then put him back in his pokeball. Then it was just me again. I looked down the beach and saw a small path, guess I'll head over there.
I started walking over to that direction but I felt something hit my face really hard. I fell over on my side, it felt like I just got punched. I looked in the direction that it came from and there stood a pokemon. It was the shape of a star and was golden, with a red circle in the middle of it. "Hya." It said loudly. Then it shot water at me and it hit my gut. "Gah!" I yelled as I went to the ground. "Okay then, let's battle." I said as I got up. I reached in my bag and pulled out buds pokeball. "Bud, I choose you!' I screamed as I threw the pokeball. Then Bud came out of it. "KARP!" He said. I then pulled out my pokedex and checked what moves he knew. There was only one move, splash. "Okay, bud, use splash!" I yelled. Then bud flung himself in the water and started splashing water onto the star pokemon "It's not very effective." I muttered to myself. But then the star pokemon jumped behind bud in the water , then it blasted him with water and bud came flying towards me. He landed at my feet, with bruises and he looked practically dead. "Bud, come back, Squirtle, I choose you!" I said as I put bud back in his pokeball, then I threw squirtles pokeball in the air. Out popped squirtle. "Squirtle!" He said. I pulled out the pokedex and checke the moves he knew. It said water gun, tackle, and tail whip. "Okay squirtle, use water gun!" I yelled. Then Squirtle took a big breath, and blasted the star with a blast of water from its mouth. It hit hard, and the star staggered. "Yes, good job Squirtle!" I said out loud. But then the star got back up, and launched itself towards Squirtle. It hit him and Squirtle was pushed back. Then the red ball in its chest started to glow. I had to think fast, that move looked powerful. "Squirtle, counter that attack with tail whip!" I screamed. Then Squirtle leaned back, and he turned his body super fast and hit his tail against the star. The star was launched backwards. "Now finish it with tackle!" I yelled at the top of my lungs. Squirtle then started running towards it and hit the star. The star then fell to the ground. I then threw one of my empty pokeballs at it. The ball hit the star and it sucked it in. Then the ball fell to the ground. "Yes, we caught it squirtle!" I said. "Squirt squirtle." Squirtle said. I then ran over to the ball and bent down to pick it up. I then decreased its size and put it on my belt. Then I pulled Squirtle's ball out of my back pocket. "Okay, Squirtle, come back." I said as I put Squirtle back in his pokeball.
"So, you caught that Staryu?" I heard a voice say from behind me. I turned quickly to see a man standing there. He had dirty blond hair and looked to be a little taller than me, and he was wearing a long sleeve black shirt with jeans, but he looked like he was a cocky person. "Umm, yeah, a staryu." I said. He laughed a bit. "You know what, I'm glad, that things been attacking people when they walk by, I would have caught it, but it's below my level." He said with a smirk. I then stood up. "Well I'm glad i could help, my name is Eren by the way." I said holding out my hand. He just looked at my, and then laughed a bit. "I don't shake hands, but if you can beat me in a pokemon battle, then I might shake it, and tell you some tips." He said smirking. "I've only known this guy for like, 2 minutes, but I hated him. "How bout you don't be a dick and show some courtesy, and I will battle you to show you that I'm a good trainer!" I yelled at him. "Great, lemme see your pokemon then.' He said. I gritted my teeth. "Fine, Bud, I choose you!" I yelled as I threw his pokeball in the air. "KARP!" Bud yelled as he came out of his pokeball. But he looked different, he looked bruised and beat up, but still strong. But then the guy started laughing. "Oh kid, look, if this is a joke then you're hilarious, in that case, I'm Oluo Bozado." Olue said holding out his hand. I slapped his hand away. "That is bud, my pokemon, and he is strong!" I yelled. "Oh buddy, that's a magikarp, that's like the weakest pokemon of all time, but I'll still battle." Oluo said. Then he backed up and got a pokeball from his belt. "Electabuzz, I choose you!" Oluo yelled as he threw his pokeball in the air. Then out came his pokemon, and Eren realized he should have kept his mouth shut. It was as tall as him, and had yellow fur and a black lighting bolt on its chest, and to top it all off, it looked pissed off. "Electabuzz!" It screamed. Oluo smiled. "Electabuzz, use slam." He said cooly. Then without warning Electabuzz bolted at Bud with his hands in the air. But Bud jumped out of the way right in the knick of time, well he flopped out of the way but he still dodged the move. "KARP!" Bud yelled in victory. Oluo looked like he was steaming up. "Use splash!" I yelled. Bud then jumped in the water and splashed on Electabuzz, but nothing happened. "Try it again, if you miss this time then you're being transferred!" Oluo yelled. Electabuzz looked scared for a moment. Then it ran after Bud, but Bud didn't have time to react. Electabuzz picked up with his hands,and then slammed Bud into the ground. Bud then stopped moving, he fainted. "Bud come back." I said as I put bud back in his pokeball. I then pulled out Squirtle's pokeball out of my pocket. "Okay, Squirtle, I choose you!" I yelled as I threw Squirtle's pokeball. Squirtle came out, and looked ready to fight. "Squirtle!" H yelled. "Okay quick, use water gun!" I yelled. Oluo just laughed a bit. But Squirtle shot water at Electabuzz, but it did nothing. "You're funny, but use slam again Electabuzz." Oluo said while laughing. Olou then picked up Squirtle and slammed him on the ground, like he did to Bud. "SQUIRTLE!" Squirtle screamed in pain, then fainted. "Ugh, Squirtle come back, i choose you, Staryu!" I yelled as I put Squirtle back in his ball, then I threw Staryu's. Staryu came out, and looked good. "Hya!" It said. I then pulled out my pokedex to see what moves he knew. Rapid spin, water gun, and tackle. "Let's see you use Rapid Spin!" I yelled at Staryu. Staryu then started running at Electabuzz and the jumped and spun around like a ninja star, it hit Electabuzz in the face, causing him to stagger. "Yeah, that's it Staryu!" I yelled. "We need to finish this, Electabuzz, use thunder wave." Oluo screamed at the top of his lungs. "Electabuzz!" It screamed. Electabuzz then clapped his hands together and it made a loud sounds, like thunder crackling. Then a wave of electricity hit Staryu and me. I went flying back and Staryu went flying back as well. I fell on my back, and when i sat up Staryu went flying into my chest, unconscious.
"What the hell Oluo!" I heard a deep voice say. Olou put Electabuzz back in it's ball. "Just showing this kid the ropes, and a beating, but now that that's over I'm leaving." Oluo said. I then lifted my head and saw the man. He was wearing a tan shirt with brown pants, and he had blond hair with a goatee, but the dude looked ripped and he looked tall, I'd say 6'5 at least. "Yeah, you better run, before i kick your ass without the pokemon involved." He said with a murderous look. Oluo got the idea and started to run. Then he came over to me. "Hey kid, you okay?" He asked me. I put staryu back in his ball and stood up. "I'm fine." I said. The truth was, I wasn't, my legs were wobbly and felt weak. "Look, I was watching that battle for a while, and you don't seem to know what types are." He told me. He seemed nice, so I wasn't going to treat him like Oluo. "What is that then?" I asked him. "Well, your water moves didn't do anything because it was an electric type pokemon, ground type are strong against those, do some research and you will become a stronger trainer, I promise." He told me. "Well thanks, what's your name?" I asked him holding out my hand. He took at and gave me a very firm handshake. "I'm a nobody, bt I have one more tip for you, you should go to the gym in Pewter city, then you should challenge the gym leader." He told me. "Sure, I'll go tomorrow,have a good then, I guess, but first I need to heal my pokemon." I told him He nodded and just looked out on the lake. I then started walking towards the path that led to Pewter city.
It was a bit of a walk, but I found the city. It looked nice, like a nicer version of my town. I walked in and saw a building with a red roof, I figured that that was the pokemon center. I stepped in and was welcomed by a warm breeze, the air conditioning was great in this place. It was a big room, with some computers and and large desk at the end of the room, and next to it was a hallway. I walked up to the desk and saw a women standing there, she had pink hair that was set up in pigtails. When she saw me she smiled. "Hello, welcome to the pokemon center, what do you need?" She asked me. "Umm I don't know actually, I'm new here." I said sheepishly. She smiled even more. "Well that's wonderful, my name is Nurse Joy, and you can either rent a room here or heal your pokemon." She told me happily. "Oh, well in that case I'd like both, thanks." I told her. I then pull out my three pokeballs and handed it to her. "Of course, once your pokemon have healed, the room is through that hall." Nurse Joy said with a smile. I waited for five minutes and she came back with my pokemon. "Here you are, have a good day, we hope to see you again." Nurse Joy said with a smile. I smiled and nodded at her, then went down the hallway to find my room. I found the door at the end of the hallway, I opened it and stepped inside. It was a normal room, just a bed against the middle of the wall, a desk, a small closet, a small couch o the opposite side of the room, and a small bathroom. First I stripped down and stepped into the shower, it felt nice to have a nice shower after a day of walking, the water felt good down my back. But then I washed every bit of myself and I stepped out, and changed into some clean cloths, which was a T-shirt and some shorts. I then stepped out of my room and looked around till I found a washing room. I stepped in and saw someone else. He or she were wearing a white sweatshirt with the hood up and was just looking at the wall while there cloth were washing, just sitting on a bench. I quietly put my clothes in one of the washing machines and went to the bench he or she was sitting at. I sat down for a minute of awkward silence, so I decided to say something. "So how are you?" I asked. Then she looked at me, and I could tell it was a she, she had a pretty face, with blonde hair sticking out of soe places from the hoodie. "I'm fine." She said. I just nodded, not knowing how to continue this conversation. "So, what brings you to Pewter City?" I asked her. He sighed. "Nothing much, just stuff." She said, she sounded annoyed. But then her washer dinged and she got up and walked over to it. "By the way, I'm Eren." I told her. She got her clothes and looked at me. "I'm Annie, bye." She said flatly. Before she got up I quickly got up. "Ugh, do you need any help?" I asked her. I wanted to get to know her, something about her. "Bye." She said more firmly. Then she stepped out. Damnit. I thought to myself. But after 45 minutes of waiting I got my clothes and went back to my room. Once I stepped in I opened the window and put my cloths over the window.
I was going to go to sleep, but I had an idea. I went back to the bathtub, and filled it up with warm water. Then I got my pokeballs out of my bag. I first let Squirtle out. "Squirtle!" He said happily. "Hey pal, were just sleeping, and I thought you might want to sleep on the couch?" I asked him. Squirtle then hopped at the edge of the bed, apparently he wanted the bed, not the couch. Then I grabbed Staryu's pokeball. I then let him out. He came out and looked refreshed, for a triangle that is. "Hya." He said. "Hey Staryu, i know we just met, but you're still part of my family, do you want to sleep on the edge of the bed?" I asked him. But he did the opposite of what Squirtle did, he walked over to the couch. "You guys act like me when I was 12." I told them. I then walked into the bathroom. I pulled out Bud's pokeball, and let him in the bathtub. "KARP KARP." Bud said while swimming in the small tub. "Hey Bud, just sleep tight, you earned rest." I told him. Then I walked over to my bed, and got under the covers. "What a day." I told myself as I drifted to sleep.
