(AN1: Pokemon don't suddenly recognize him, but they do know of him)
When Naruto sat down at night and looked at the map with Pidgey across from him he told her that he was planning on going to the best person available to get signed up. The 'Pokemon Training for Dummies' book had a lot of information in it as well as a list of people and places that one could get signed up at and the top ranked person in the book was one Professor Oak of Pallet Town, a nice scalded town near the sea.
Pidgey stated that he would never make it to the town, using her beak to peck at the town in a whole different region.
Naruto just grinned at her and made a bet that if he couldn't make it there in twenty-four hours starting that morning, he would buy her anything she wanted when he got his starting money, but if he did make it, he would double her already intense training regime.
Of course, she wasn't dumb enough to take that bet, no matter how far the trip would be she would never risk having to double her training,
"Pallet Town is an the Kanto region," he muttered while looking at the huge map, "And there only two main routes into the town, a boat ride on Route 21 south or Route 1 connecting to Viridain City,"
Naruto pulled the training book from the backpack and started looking for any other information on the towns. Pallet town had quite a few famous people grow up there and they all loved the town despite not having many major pokemarts and pokecenters, they also got most of their supplies from Viridian City.
Viridian City was a large city located in western Kanto, It was also called the City of Evergreen because it was surrounded by trees. It was also the home of the Viridian City Gym. Viridian City also had a branch of the Pokemon Academy, a school for rich adults to send their kids to learn how to be trainers.
Naruto wasn't bull-shitting when he made that bet, Pidgey didn't know about a lot of his powers so she had no idea that he could teleport himself in that direction. He couldn't directly teleport there because for one, he had never been there and secondly, it was too far for a single jump.
Folding the map up and closing the book, Naruto put them both in the bag and zipped it up, "Well Pidgey I'ma need you to get in your ball so I can travel quickly, besides, I don't need any trouble for having a pokemon and being unregistered." he told her while expanding her pokeball.
Pidgey disappeared into her ball when the red beam of light hit her from the round button on the ball and he pressed it again, making it shrink down to a manageable size.
The blond legendary placed it into his pocket and popped his neck leaving in a swirl of green leafs.
His first stop landed him in a grove of small trees, finding it empty he left again, just missing a small Diglet popping its head out of the ground and looking around in a confused way. Just then it heard an hiss and turned around to see an Ekans looking at it evilly before lunging at it, hissing it's name as it sailed towards the small brown pokemon.
Diglet cried out it's name in shock and shot back down into it's hole with the purple snake right behind it.
All went quite for a minute until the sounds of a struggle echoed across the forest. Smoke and cries flew from the hole and the Ekans quickly tried to crawl out the hole, it was covered in bruises and scraps, even had a swollen eye. But something grabbed it and started pulling it back down.
The pokemon sank its fangs into the ground and left a pair of trenches carved into the grass as he disappeared into the dark hole again.
A few seconds later it shot out of the hole crying while a family of Diglet and Dugtrio popped out of the ground, glaring at the fleeing Ekans as it slithered away leaving a dust trail behind it.
The stopped glaring and looked at each other before chanting their names in laughter.
Naruto's second stop landed him on top of a sleeping Snorelax, it grumbled and latched onto him with a loud yawn, cuddling him like a teddy bear and rolling over. His yell was silenced when it rolled over on top of him, it's weight crushing him. Had he been a normal human he would have died but he was able to teleport to safety.
Five more jumps and Naruto landed on a dirt road, looking around for any dangers he sighed and laughed in victory when he saw the road sign pointing towards Pallet town. The teleporting was fun and all but he never knew what he was about to land on or by. His fourth jump was the worst by far, he had landed right on the road in front of a large eighteen wheeler, the bright lights making him freeze like a deer in the headlights.
Being hit wasn't painful in the least, it had all happened too fast to even feel. But the man driving the truck sure was pissed. His truck had been totaled when Naruto didn't budge, bringing the truck from 60 MPH to a dead stop. Didn't help that his tails were out and the person soon recognized him as the Legendary Pokemon from the news.
He could already see the headlines, 'Legendary Pokelord hit by truck, truck destroyed.'
Shaking his head, Naruto once again changed his face back to the way he had it, when he released his tails his disguise had faded too, not only that but he nearly released his bowls, had that happened he could imagin how the news would be.
In today's news, a truck driver's 18-wheeler was totaled last night when what he claims was the Pokelord appeared out of nowhere in the middle of the road, neither were harmed but investigators found a pair of soiled boxers not too far from the scene
He shock his head again to rid himself of the thoughts and started walking towards the town to find a place to stay for the rest of the night.
Despite being a smaller, Pallet town had a small hotel for people just passing through. it was like the town, small and pleasant. There wasn't many rooms but they were real nice, giving off the feeling of staying at home, not a cheap hotel room with tacky carpet and wallpaper. It also smelled better too, a nice lemon sent lingered the room, not the overbearing sent of mold and semen which would easily be smelled over the cleaning solution when he focused on his nose. Naruto had been to motels which weren't cleaned as much before and he hoped never to do that again.

The next morning Naruto was up and about before the sun was. He had only slept for a couple of hours but then again he only needed a few hours to be fully alert.
Walking down a street next to a large river, Naruto did an over head toss and threw the Pokedex into the rushing water, having used the last of it's funds to get that room. It definitely wasn't cheap, now he knew why the book said that trainers would live tough lives in the beginning, seeing as they had to camp out in the wilderness until they made it big, even then only the best of the best lived lives of luxury. Winning large contests with huge prizes.
Walking down the road, Naruto saw Professor Oak's lab sitting on top of a hill. It wasn't overly large as it could've been. Being one of the leading professors made Oak a wealthy man, but unlike a lot of people he didn't flaunt it around and lived in a modest, but still roomy home connected to his lab.
It didn't take long to reach, despite having to walk there. As he leisurely strolled down the road was greeted by a few shop owners who were opening their stores.
Going up the steps of the lab, Naruto knocked on the door loudly.
A minute passed.
Naruto knocked again.
Another minute passed.
Resting his knuckles on the door, Naruto started making beats of the door until he heard a voice directly behind him.
"Can I help you?"
Naruto stopped beating and turned his head towards the voice, "Professor Oak?" He asked the man wearing a white lab coat and carrying a large brown grocery bag,
He nodded, "Yes that's me, may I ask why you are rapping on my door."
"You wouldn't answer the door," Naruto said with a straight face.
Oak chuckled and fished out his keys from his pocket, "You remind me of my grandson. Anyway, I was just picking up a few things from the store, Don't know what I'd do if they weren't open all day and night." he mused while sliding the key into the lock then inviting the blonde in, "But what brings you here so early?"
Naruto followed him inside, "Well I wanted to get registered as a Trainer,"
Oak nodded, "Ah, so you woke up bright an early for this, too excited to sleep huh?"
Naruto nodded, "Yeah... excited,"
Oak led him into the kitchen and put his bag down, "Well Mr..."
"Naruto"
"Well Naruto, your In luck, I don't have anything planned for today so I would be happy to give you your test and get you registered."
The test was simple. Oaks took him into the lab where he set him up at a computer. He enter some information about himself, most of which was fake, after all how could he enter Konoha as his birthplace and a birth date from hundreds of thousands of years ago. The test part was to see what he knew about Pokemon, rather or not he knew how to care for them, what their weakness was, and considering who and what he was...
"Oh my!" the Professor exclaimed, "I've never seen such a high score before."
Naruto shrugged.
"How in the world did you know about Onix having a weak spot in the center of it's back? We've only just discovered that,"
Naruto smirked inwardly, "I know things,"
Oak smiled, "Well your scores are amazing, you could become an elite researcher or even a professor like me, If you want, you could work with me until you get the experience to be a professor,"
Naruto shook his head, "No thanks, I'm going to be a master and that can't happen if I'm stuck in an office or lab,"
The professor nodded,"Yes I serpose, well, what starter pokemon would you like? My lab offers-"
Naruto stopped him and pulled Pidgey's pokeball out, "No thanks, I already have my starter," he told him with a smirk. He was already in the database and now all that was left to bo was get a Pokedex and have it set up. He couldn't get in trouble now for being unregistered,.
He tossed it up in the air, "Pidgey go!"
It opened and Pidgey came out a beam of white energy, swooping around an landing on his sholder, puffing and ruffling her feathers in pride.
Professor Oak looked at him in shock, "Amazing!" he gasped while looking at the bird pokemon, "You caught this Pidgey without help from a Pokemon?"
Naruto shook his head, "Kinda, me and Pidgey are partners, but I didn't want someone trying to catch her so I got her to agree to traveling through town with me in a pokeball,"
"You tamed a wild Pidgey without any modern help?" Oak questioned in shock.
When a trainer caught a while Pokemon, they normally took them to a pokecenter where they were healed , the very same machine also calmed them down so that they would think clearly. Most wild pokemon ran off of pure instinct and that instinct sometime made them hostile and untrusting of humans. That machine took care of that but in the old days, you had to work hard to earn their trust, often it was life threatening.
Naruto shook his head, "Yes I did, It's not hard to do, consider them you partner, not your property, and never ask them to do something you wouldn't do yourself" he shrugged.
Oak nodded in agreement, "Well, lets get you your Dex and get it set up,"
Naruto and Pidgey shared a look and nodded to each other before following the professor.
Professor Oak hooked up a Pokedex one of his computers and set it up, taking only a few minutes to have his information downloaded into it. After a second, the blue light in the corner flashed and Professor Oak unhooked it, "Congratulations Naruto, you are now a trainer,"
Naruto took the offered device and thanked him before siding it into his pocket and leaving soon after.
"Well Pidgey," Naruto started while walking down the dirt road, his face turning into a smirk, "I'm officially a trainer now, know what that means,"
Her eyes got wide, making his smirk widen.
"That's right, back to training for you,"

Naruto spent two more days training Pidgey, teaching her an attack then having her practice on a clone. She at least got one attack each day and mastered them to an acceptable level.
First Naruto taught her a better attack that didn't involve physical contact like Take down, it was a normal attack that fell into the special category called Razor Wind. Then he taught her one of his personal favorites, a Psychic move called Reflect, which, like the name implied, reflected an attack back at the attacker.
Teaching his partner gave him this weird sense of pride, it must have been what Iruka felt when he sat through class trying his best to teach him something. At least he knew how the man had stayed sane enough to put up with them.
Watching as Pidgey used reflect to block a underpowered razor wind from his clone, Naruto nodded at her near perfect form. He was about to tell her to do it again but he stopped short, catching her attention.
Looking off the the side Naruto saw a flower peeking out from a bush. Pulling out the Pokedex, he opened the front and pointed it at the hidden plant, making the light blink once before lighting up.
Bellsprout, the small flower pokemon. Easily recognized by it's small size and plant like body, along with its yellow bulb with a pint tip. All Bellsprout have an ability which researchers have named Chlorophyll, which give the Bellsprout an increase in speed when it's sunny. This Pokemon prefers hot and humid environments and is quick to capture prey in it's vines.
LV: 6
...
It listed a few more things like it's weakness and a few nodded, he never really had a Bellsprout but he did have a Weepinbell before, the Bellsprouts evolved form.
Pidgey swooped over to his sholder and scanned the trees and bushes where Naruto was looking then saw the hiding pokemon. she looked at Naruto for orders and asked it he wanted to catch it.
Naruto nodded, "Pidgey use razor wind on the bush then follow up with take down," he muttered lowly.
Pidgey nodded and took flight. She flapped her winds hard at the bunch sending small razor sharp bursts of wind at the innocent bush which got torn apart by the attack.
Bellsprout never saw it coming until it was too late. It cried out in surprise as the bush was murdered around it just before being hit by the Pidgey.
Pidgey grabbed the pokemon with her talons and tossed the Bellsprout out into the open where it rolled to a stop at her trainers feet. It sat up, the two leafs on each side of it's body rubbing the sides of it's head while muttering part of it's name.
Naruto looked at the Bellsprout and grabbed an extra Pokeball from his coat pocket. He pressed the button to expand it and held it over the dazed Pokemons head and dropped it.
It conked the little pokemon on the head before flying up in the air and opening, engulfing it in a white beam of light and pulling it in. The pokeball fell to the ground and shuddered once, the front button glowing dimly.
Naruto watched and picked it up just as it stopped moving.
"Wow that was surprisingly simple," he said to Pidgey while tossing it up and catching it. "Good job by the way, I think were almost ready to start changing gym leaders."
Pidgey puffed up at his praise.
"I think that's enough for today," he muttered, "Well walk to the next town and train Bellsprout a little before really getting into any big battles."
Pidgey flew up to his sholder and trilled in agreement.

Back in the region of Orre, the legendary pokemon Mew flew around a clearing. She had searched high and low for the origin of that power. She didn't get a good lock on it but she was able to feel the lingering aura in the clearing. It had taken a while to find too, but now that she did she happily fluttered around the trees, the remaining power giving her a feeling of peace and happiness.
But the lingering aura was slowly dissipating. Mew's ears lowered as the feeling slowly disappeared. She had to find the creature that possessed this intoxicating aura. It was pushing her mating instincts and whatever it was, she wanted it to be her mate.
To be continued...
Well here's the third chapter, Naruto's already got his second Pokemon and Mew is searching for him. Please keep reviewing it's intoxicating to find a bunch of unread reviews waiting for me.
Also, if it seems a little slow I'm sorry, I never expected this to be so popular so I'm having to work harder at it.
