Our heroes have now started their journey. With Matt getting Bulbasaur, Joseph getting Squirtle, and Scarlet getting Charmander. How will their journey begin? Read on!
"Wow, I've never been to Route 1 before. It's quite..."
"Bland?" Joseph interrupted.
"Hey! I've waited 10 long years for this and I still haven't had a battle!" Matt shouted.
"Wanna have one?" Joseph asked.
"Yes I will!"
Matt VS. Joseph!
"The rules?"
"Standard Pokemon League rules: Each Pokemon uses one move per turn. When one trainer has no more Pokemon left to use, that trainer loses. The losing trainer will give the victor a small amount of prize money. Got it?"
"Yes!"
"Let's Go!"
Matt got his Pokemon out first, "Gooooo Bulbasaur!"
"Go Squirtle!" Joseph said as he sent out Squirtle.
"Hmmmmm...," Matt thought, "Bulbasaur, use Tackle!"
"Squirtle, use Tail Whip!"
Matt's Bulbasaur's defense fell. Squirtle lost 35% of it's HP.
"Bulbasaur, Growl!" Matt commanded.
"Squirtle, use Tackle!" Joseph ordered.
Squirtle's attack fell. Bulbasaur's HP went down by 30%.
"Bulbasaur, finish the Squirtle off with Tackle!"
"Squirtle, use Tackle!"
Bulbasaur won the speed contest against Squirtle and got a Critical Hit on Joseph's Squirtle.
"I won!" Matt cheered.
"Good for you, here's 250 Pokedollars. Use it well..."
"Hey, do you know where Scarlet went?" Matt asked.
Joseph looked around, "Oh yeah... where is she?"
A voice came from the horizon, "Hey guys! If you don't hurry up I'm going to get to Viridian City first! Last one's a broken Exeggcute!"
"You're not getting there first!" Matt shouted.
"And you're not being first either!" Joseph yelled.
"Let's see!" Matt said as he was running.
Our trio is getting ready to arrive at their first stop. Who's going to win this contest of speed? We'll see soon! Stay tuned...
