Sigh. Finally done with uploading Chapter 1. Phew~ That sure was quite... taskful. For a newbie. Hehe.

2 days prior to the battle of Red & Gray:

Our hero, Red, have received a letter from none other than Professor Samuel Oak, the region's top Pokemon expert. But that doesn't mean he is such a celebrity. In fact, he just lives a couple of blocks away from Red's lil' old house.

"Hey, Pika, looks like the Prof needs us for somethin'. Hmm. Wonder what it is..."

Red opens the letter:

"Dear Red, I am now officially giving you the honor of becoming a full-pledged Pokedex Owner, along with my grandson, Gray, & also another lass named Gale. You have proven worthy of becoming one. Good luck & best wishes. From, Prof. Samuel Oak."

Whoa. Who would've thought that top professors still use letters & mails nowadays...? Well, just about time. Since Red had finally graduated in junior high, he can now fulfill such a responsibility. Red then put the letter inside the 'mail' secion of his bag & dashed down the ladder along with a Pikachu following him.

"Bye, mom. I'm now leaving on a journey for Prof. Oak. See ya, mom! I love you!"

"I love you, too, Red. Now good luck~!"

Red hugged his mother one last time before leaving the door of the boundaries of his dreams, & took off to see the good prof.

Riding a bicycle, Red pedalled towards a Research Laboratory up the hill of Pallette Town.

Now after reaching the prescribed lab, Red entered & greeted everyone inside. Red was quite a cheerful, happy-go-lucky fellow, who is also keen in making friends. Although the only problem with him, according to some girls, is that he's too addicted to Pokemon Battles that he's being oblivious to girls who adore him. In fact, he really is oblivious. He is quite charming & good-looking. He is also physically fit & strong, quite the body of an athlete, & has potential, too. He really is quite smart; smart in making strategies in Pokemon Battles, at least. But sometimes he can be quite a doofus.

"Good morning, Red. What a surprise."

"Huh? What of it, prof?"

"Heh. He's implying that you became early for a change, you dweeb." Gray sneered, obviously mocking him.

An orange-haired lass giggled beside another Professor which Red had noticed.

"Hey, it's prof. Juniper!"

"Hahaha. Glad you still remember me, Red."

"Course I do. Whatcha doin' here, Prof? And... Who's that girl beside you?"

Red finally noticed the girl. She had long, shiny, orange hair, kinda like Shirley's of Code Geass, she had leaf-green eyes, flawless & nice skin, blue, sleeveless shirt which had a circle hole in the upper-center which reveals her beautifully-shaped, deep cleavage. She had a nice body physique, containing large & nicely-formed breasts & beautiful legs, revealing from her extremely short, scarlet skirt. She had long socks which reached below her knees. And also, she seemed to look young yet maturely enough to assume she's the same age as Red & Gray.

"Oh, this is my niece, Gale LeafGreen. She's my older sister's daughter."

"Oh.. Hi there, miss. Nice meetin' ya." Red smiled at him as he greeted with the same cheerful voice.

"Oh, uhh... Um. Y-Yeah. Nice meeting you, too." Gale blushed as she shook his hand. She obviously developed a crush on him. Prof. Juniper just giggled at the thought.

"By the way, about sending you here... You three already know the details, right? Hmm... Well, i'll just explain it later. But right now, i'm about to give each of you, a device which i had developed after long years of research. And Prof. Juniper here helped me with the design & functions, which she had managed to come up with from her own region's advanced technology... Behold, the Pokedex Version Z.X.~!"

What will be this task? And will Red be able to use this device properly? Stay tuned!
