To Know The UnKnown..
First Encounters.
I had ran into the tall grass, the feeling was filling my body with excitement mixed with a multitude of fear, but I was mostly thrilled, a piece of grass shifted and out jumped a pokemon, my pokedex recorded its data, a Lilipup, the puppy pokemon...oh my god so cute! I was determined to get this pokemon, I had to!
"G-Go! Aibou!"
I said as my pokemon jumps out of his ball, he cried his cute little 'Oshaaa' and landed on his feet standing up tall, his only attacks, by the pokedex were, Tackle and Growl...not a good start, but he was only level 5... so this is what training was...battling...but I didn't wanna...hurt the pokemon...suddenly out of no where Aibou was scratched and yelped, I growled as I made my move.
"Aibou, use your tackle!"
I yelled out, he ran fast at the Lilipup and tackled it into a tree, it was dazed so I threw out a pokeball waiting patiently until...
Click!
The ball stopped moving, this must have ment I got a pokemon, suddenly I was filled with an un controllable giggle as I held the pokeball and nuzzled it, I let it out and looked at it, I thought I should name this one too, looking at her face I smiled.
"Hello, Fido...welcome to the family!"
I grinned as I pet her then returned her to the pokeball as I continued, I saw Cheren ahead..but I didn't feel ready to advance yet, I felt like trying again, so I walked around until.. from a tree fell a beaver like pokemon, I jumped in fright as it yelped and bit down onto Aibou, whom ran about slamming it into a tree.
"Quick! Use tackle!"
I commanded as Aibou once again tackled into the pokemon knocking it out into a daze, I threw out my second pokeball and waited for that familiar click, it went on few more seconds then...
Click!
The familiar noise was heard and I had a Patrat, I decided, it was too nervous to risk letting it out the ball so named it while it rested. I named her , Jaika.
"Oh my gosh... 3 already! I feel so giddy!"
I giggled softly as I walked with Aibou at my side, he clung to my leg as we walked to Cheren, he smiled at me as he spoke.
"Are you ready? Bianca and I have 2 already. Go see her when you're ready and we will compare Touko."
He stated. I nodded to him as I made my way to Bianca and she waved her cheery self as I stood in front, Cheren followed behind me.
"So, how many do you have White?"
She asked me as I showed my pokemon and she gaped as did Cheren at my 3 little pokeballs in my hands. Cheren pat my shoulder.
"Wow, your going to be one hard cookie to beat yes you are!"
Bianca stated and I chuckled as I looked at my little Aibou hiding into my leg, I smiled as Cheren spoke.
"Well, I'm off to Accumula Town, there is a pokemon gym and a heal centre there, Touko, you should go to, Aibou would appreciate a rest, if he's going to walk."
Cheren stated as he waved and headed off ahead, Bianca waved too and spoke.
"If you need us, well...I don't know really, just trying to be supportive, maybe something will happen to make us talk while we are long distance, byeeee White!"
She smiled running before lightly tripping and continuing on her way, I decided to goto Accumula town and get rested, it was on my way there I seen like a flash of white in front of my eyes, but I brushed it off and walked on to the pokemon centre.
"Oh! Touko! You're here already, let me show you something, this is a-"
Proffesor Juniper greeted me and began speaking when Bianca ran in panting.
"I-I wanna hear too!"
She said as the proffesor smiled and continued her talk.
"Well, this is, as I was saying. A Pokemon centre, this is like a trainers best friend, yoi can heal here and its completely free, no cash! So remember, when your low, come here. Now..."
She continued to tell us about the Pc and how we store pokemon inside it or transfer mail and everything like that before waving and leaving us to our own things, I healed up then walked out only for two boys to talk loud enough for me to hear it.
"Hmm there's a commotion at the square..."
"Let's go see it, come on Spinda!"
The second male had with him a pokemon that must be a Spinda, whatever it was, I had never seen it before.. I headed over and Cheren met me, his face serious.
"Let's listen Touko! It may be important.."
He stated and I nodded as I stood with him, men in blue were walking with a large green haired man with an odd eye glass sort of thing on his left eye. It was odd, but what he said was odder...
"Ladies, gentlemen and children, I have called you here, to speak of...Pokemon Liberation! Now we have in this world, creatures called 'Pokemon' but can we honestly say... Pokemon are happy? Being confined to small pokeballs? Who amongst us has ever thought about the idea that pokemon may be happier when not with trainers?"
The man stated, I thought it stupid, pokemon had to be in a pokeball, it protected them from harm and kept them from being stolen...what was this man all about?
"And so, my friends, I leave you with this...Pokemon Liberation, is truly the only way that we can ensure these magnificent beings are kept unique, please, think of the pokemon. With that, I leave you. Gentlemen, let's go."
He stated as he began to move away with his secutity men, many people looked around and sighed as they looked at their pokemon and then shook their heads, others were not buying it, I looked to Cheren who laughed.
"Liberation of the Pokemon? What bulls-"
He was about to finish when a green haired man walked to me and stared at me, his eyes were as green as his emerald hair, he spoke.
"...I've never heard a pokemon say that...interesting..."
He said and I was at a blank, pokemon speak? I didn't even realise, I knew that it was happy but I'd never heard him talk...Cheren blinked.
"Slow down, what was that about pokemon talking? Who are you!"
He asked but the male just looked directly at me, it was causing me to get freaked...did I have a blemish or something? He spoke again.
"So you cannot hear it either...that's...sort of sad...I..Am N..."
He stated as Cheren speaks again.
"I am Cheren, I want to be the champion and learn about pokemon, this, is Touko."
He stated, I could have sworn I saw him smirk at the mention of my name now, but he went back to a grimace as he then spoke.
"Champion eh? Well... That means, you will confine many Pokemon to pokeballs...right? Touko was it...let me hear yout pokemons voice again..."
He said as he threw out a pokeball with a Purrlion, I just stared a bit confused at what exactly happened...
'Who is this guy...'
Was all that went through my brain as his emerald eyes bored into my own blue ones.
