What does it say at the top of SE #007: Something Special? In short, it says: "No Red & Yellow because one's oblivious and the other is nervous" and "No Black & White because the arc hasn't progressed far enough (basically)". Yet all these reviews/requests demanding a Red & Yellow…

So here it is! The first Red & Yellow! … Damn, I feel spineless… But this is the result of all your whining… Your whines have been… er… accepted? Granted? Ah, things along that line.

I am now overriding that thing on the top of SE #007: Something Special. Black & White will pop up every now and then, and for Red & Yellow… well, let's just say that it could come up again… depending on how this one goes.

Primary: Red & Yellow.

First Date:

Red was sitting underneath a tree in front of his house, dozing off in the warm weather.

"Congratulations, senior!" came a sweet voice.

Red snapped awake and looked up. He could see Platinum looking at him with a bright smile.

"Huh?"

"I have heard that you have a date with senior Yellow tomorrow."

"Oh. Thanks."

"Senior Yellow has been waiting for this moment for many years, senior," Platinum said. "I am sure that she is very nervous."

"Yeah… Where do you think I should take her?" Red asked. "Because I have no idea what to do in a date."

Platinum giggled. "I am sure that senior Yellow will be happy regardless of where you take her." She placed a hand on her chin as she thought. "Um… … Diamond mostly takes me to his home to cook me dinner."

Red thought for a second. "Well, I can't cook, so…"

"Perhaps you should buy her dinner and watch the sunset near a beach?" Platinum offered. "For the past two years, I have looked forward to the day when Diamond would make that offer to me…" She looked a little sad, so Red thought of a comforting phrase in his head when the heiress suddenly beamed. "But Diamond promised to take me on that date when I return home! I cannot wait!"

Red looked confused for a second. "… Well… what's his plan? Maybe I could get an idea for my date with Yellow."

"Um… okay, then. But you must not tell senior Yellow about this. I do not want her to get the wrong idea."

"Of course."

"Diamond told me of his plan, and I am really excited. First, he is going to take me to the beach south of Sandgem Town for a walk along the cliff. We will be able to see the sunset and it is going to be beautiful!" Platinum squealed out. "And then we will eat dinner, and then he is going to take me to Lake Verity to see the stars and the moon in the perfect calm! Oh, I just cannot wait!" the heiress squealed out again. Realizing how… childish she sounded, she blushed in embarrassment and tried to calm down.

A thought occurred and Red looked confused again. "Hey, if Dia promised you your perfect date, then… why are you here in Kanto?"

"Well… um… Since last week, the president of the television company in Sinnoh had been inviting me for dinner," Platinum started nervously. "I agreed once, and there, he introduced me to his son, who is the heir to the company. The president suggested that I should be friends with him, but I do not like him at all. It was pretty obvious why the president kept inviting me to dinner. And to avoid refusing the offer without a reason, I told him that I would be in Kanto to stay with my seniors."

"Hmm… it sounds to me that this president guy wants you to be his son's girlfriend," Red said.

"Yes. It is quite… creepy."

"What are you going to do if that guy invites you again the moment you get back home?"

"My father will tell him that I am on a date, and perhaps the president and his son will stay away from me." Platinum shook away the bad feelings and forced herself to smile. "But I digressed. Senior, where do you intend on taking senior Yellow?"

"Well… I guess Mt. Moon Square. It's calm there, and it has a lake… do you think she'll like it?"

"Of course, senior."

"Hey, when are you going to leave for Sinnoh?" Red asked.

"The ship leaves for Canalave City at 3:30 pm," Platinum replied. "As such, I cannot stay long. I must take the bus to Vermillion City within 30 minutes.

Red checked his watch. It was noon. "Hey, why don't we get something to eat? And afterwards, I can just Fly you to Vermillion City. It'll only take 30 minutes that way."

"I highly appreciate the offer, senior, but I do not wish to be a burden," Platinum said. "After all, your Aerodactyl is used to carrying one person."

"Well… you can't ride Aero on its neck. That's why it carries me whenever I need to Fly. But if I carry you, and Aero carries me, I don't see a problem."

"But…"

"Don't worry. I carried Blue a few times before, and she's probably much heavier than you," Red said with a laugh. He suddenly took a nervous glance around. "… Don't tell her that I said that. She might… uh… murder me."

Platinum giggled. "I understand senior."

"Well, come on then. I know the best restaurant in Pallet Town."

The heiress gave a gracious bow. "Thank you very much, senior."

Meanwhile, Crystal's house in Violet City, Johto…

"So, Red and Yellow are finally dating," Blue said before taking a sip of tea.

"Really?" Crystal said in surprise. "Wow. It's about time, I guess. Where is he taking her?"

"I don't know. He told me that he has no ideas. I wanted to suggest something, but I'm not sure either," Blue said with a sigh. She looked at Crystal and Gold (who was sitting silently with a blank look on his face). "That's why I came here. Believe it or not, you two have more experience with this kind of thing than I do."

Crystal shook her head. "I don't know if that's a compliment or an insult…" With a sip of her tea, she tried to think of an idea. But none came up that would be suitable for Red and Yellow. She turned to look at Gold. "Any ideas, Gold?"

The goggled boy didn't reply, as he was still lost in deep thought. 'Those betraying Hoenn punks! I'll get them… I'll get them good!'

Blue took another sip and suddenly narrowed her eyes. "Now you two, remember this. I spent a long time trying to get Red to take Yellow out on a date. If you interfere or mess this up…"

"I don't know why you're threatening me," Crystal said. "I'm not going to interrupt anything."

"I know. I'm telling you to keep an eye on Gold."

Gold snapped out of his thoughts and looked at his senior. "Relax. I have better things to do than interrupt some date." The goggled boy rose to his feet. "Now if you'll excuse me, I've got some… uh… payback to administer." He looked at Blue. "Senior Blue… do you know where that bickering couple is?"

"Ruby and Sapphire? I think I saw them trying the Apricorn picking in Route 31," the Kanto girl replied without much thought.

"Thank you," Gold said calmly. "I will return shortly with a screaming Sapphire, and a crying Ruby. Or the other way around."

Blue watched Gold calmly exit the house. She turned to Crystal with a confused look. "What's wrong with him?"

The Johto girl sighed. "You don't want to know…"

An hour later, there was some furious knocking on the door. Crystal opened the door and Ruby and Sapphire hastily entered.

"Crystal, you have to stop Gold!" Sapphire said while trying to catch her breath. "He's gone mad! He's still blaming us for the whole movie crew incident, and he's trying to force us to interfere with Red's date with Yellow!"

"What? That's crazy!" Crystal said.

"He's threatening to shoot stink bombs down our throats if we don't listen! He's chasing us right now!" Ruby said.

Just then, as if proving Ruby's accusations to be true, Gold's voice came from the outside.

"Get your asses out here, or I'm going to shove down so many stink bombs down your lying throats, that you'll taste them even after death!"

The door burst open once more and Gold appeared, fully extended billiard cue in one hand, five stink bombs in the other. Ruby and Sapphire hid behind Crystal, while the Johto girl put her hands on her hips and glared at the goggled boy.

Gold sighed. "Oh, that is just not fair…"

Vermillion City harbor, 3:00 pm…

Red released himself from his Aerodactyl's grip and landed on the ground. He was still carrying Platinum in his arms, and as expected, she was very light and easy to carry. The heiress was still blushing with embarrassment.

"Um… thank you very much for the… ride and lunch, senior Red," she said as she got off of her senior's arms.

"No problem." Red looked at the ship docked in the harbor. "You should get on, Platinum. People are starting to board."

"Of course, senior. Good luck with your date," Platinum said.

"Thanks. Thanks for the advice too. I guess I'll let you know how the date turns out."

"Do let me know, senior. And do tell me if you require my assistance. I will be glad to help."

"Alright. I'll see you the next time you come to Kanto, or the next time I go to Sinnoh."

"Good bye, senior. I wish to see you again soon."

Platinum bowed to her senior and after giving him a cute smile, quickly boarded the ship. Red looked at her for a second before he got his Aerodactyl to carry him again.

"Alright… now to go home and think about what I'll have to do tomorrow…"

Next day, 5 pm…

Red simply sat on a chair and looked into a mirror while Blue fixed his tie and straightened his suit. The champion intended to pick up Yellow in his regular clothes, but Blue (who had been waiting outside his house) stopped him and forced him back inside.

"Blue, why exactly do I need a suit when I'm going to take her to Mt. Moon Square?" Red asked.

"Because you need to look nice for your first date!" Blue said in a frustrated tone. "Yellow's been waiting for this moment for years, and you are not going to go to her in your everyday clothes!"

"Uh… are you okay?" Red asked. "You seem… uh… irritated today."

"Yeah, I'm fine," Blue said quite angrily as she tightened Red's tie. "Why do you ask?"

"Because… you're… choking me…"

Blue noticed that she tightened the tie too much and quickly loosened it. "… Sorry, Red. It's just that… in my first date with Green, he came to pick me up in the same clothes I saw him wearing for the past week. And now, seeing you making the exactly the same mistake… I just got reminded of that day…"

Red adjusted the tie and took a deep breath. "Yeah, well… I'm not making that mistake now, am I? No need to choke me here."

"I know," Blue said with a sigh. She looked at Red from head to toe. "Alright. You're ready. Now I'll tell you some of the things you should do, and some things you should never do on a date."

"Such as?"

"Never let the girl pay for the dinner. Meaning, always pay for the dinner. Second, you're trying to make the girl happy. You will do what Yellow wants, even if it's something that you don't like. And don't ever, ever pull a prank on the girl. Those are the mistakes I've seen and heard Green and Gold do. Don't make the same mistakes."

Red looked at her silently. "Thanks. I'll be… uh… on my way then."

The champion then headed out of his house, Blue following. Red's Aerodactyl carried its trainer to the Viridian Forest. Blue looked at him for a second before she got onto her Wigglytuff. She felt a little… angry… and she was going to find Green (who was in Hoenn at the moment) and give him hell. He'd never see it coming…

Meanwhile, Yellow paced back and forth in front of the door to her house, waiting for Red to arrive. Blue had called an hour ago and told her to wear her best dress for the date. Having no dresses whatsoever, Yellow had no choice but to stay in her regular attire, and hoped that Red wouldn't arrive in a fancy suit.

But unfortunately, when someone knocked on the door and Yellow hastily opened, she could see Red in that fancy suit, looking very awkward. The two Kanto Dex Holders simply looked at each other, noticing the unexpected difference in each other's clothes.

"Uh… hi, Yellow…" Red said with a nervous smile.

"Um… hi, Red…" Yellow said, also with a nervous smile. "N – Nice suit…"

Red rubbed the back of his neck. 'Now… what was I supposed to do? … Oh, right…' "Uh… let's go eat dinner, then."

Red was going to take Yellow to a restaurant in Viridian City, but changed his mind to Pewter. And to get there quickly, he lifted Yellow onto his arms, and got his Aerodactyl to drop him off at the city.

Upon arriving at the city, Yellow quickly got off of Red's arms and looked away. She couldn't make eye-contact with him, as she was blushing too much. Not knowing what to say in this kind of situation, Red simply led her towards the restaurant where they would eat dinner. But just as he was about to open the door, he remembered something.

'Oh, crap! I forgot my wallet thanks to Blue!' Red opened the door for Yellow, and the moment she entered the restaurant, he sent out his Aerodactyl, Pikachu, and Espeon. "You three, get over to my house and get me my wallet as soon as possible!" he whispered to them. He quickly entered the restaurant afterwards to avoid suspicion.

Luckily, the dinner ended in an hour, and by that time, Red's Pokémon were back with the wallet. How the three Pokémon got into his house when he forgot to give them the keys, he'll never find out.

After dinner, Red took Yellow to Mt. Moon Square as promised. There weren't going to be any dancing Clefairies tonight, but… oh well. It took around 3 hours to get from Pewter City to Mt. Moon, and in that time, the two Dex Holders talked about what they were doing for the past week. But mostly, it was just Yellow stammering and Red listening (because he couldn't think of anything to say).

Upon arriving at the Mt. Moon Square, Red sat by the small lake and looked blankly at the sky. Yellow nervously sat beside him and looked at the moon and the stars. She occasionally glanced at him, wondering when he was going to-

'Hmm… I remember Blue telling me to do something…' Red thought to himself. 'And Platinum told me to do something too. But what?'

'Arm around her, now!' his brain yelled. 'Due to your… incompetence, I'm taking over!'

Red shrugged and complied with his brain and put an arm around Yellow's shoulders. The girl jumped in surprise but slowly and carefully moved closer to him and leaned slightly.

'Now, your next step: kiss her!' Red's brain ordered.

Red started to choke and Yellow looked at him with a confused and worried look.

"Red, are you okay?" she asked, but the champion didn't hear her.

'Kiss her?' he thought to himself. 'But…'

'Now, you fool! Or I tell Blue that you ruined your date!'

"How the hell are you going to do that without a usable mouth?" Red muttered to himself.

"Did you say something?" Yellow asked as she looked at him again.

'Ha, you fool!'

'Shut up…' "I… uh…" Red sighed and looked at Yellow. The moonlight reflecting off of her eyes sure made her look pretty… 'Ah, what the hell…' Red leaned over and kissed her in the mouth.

Yellow almost jumped in surprise again before she lost all control over her muscles. Her eyes closed by themselves and she ended up basically falling into Red's embrace.

After the kiss ended, Red looked up at the moon and the stars while Yellow was in his arms, also looking at the sky.

'Well, that worked out pretty well… I should ask Platinum and Blue for advice. And I should really listen to my brain a lot more.' Red looked at Yellow. "Hey, Yellow, want to do this again in a few days?" he asked. "Yellow?" he called when the girl didn't reply. Noticing that she was fast asleep, he kissed her on the cheek and looked at the sky again. "I'll take that as a yes. I need to get to Mt. Silver tomorrow, but when I return, I'll take you out on another date!"

This chapter occurs immediately before the only chapter of SE that has death of a Dex Holder. Anyways, here's the post-ending.

Post Ending:

Red sat dozing off on a chair in his house. In a few hours, he would go and pick up Yellow for another date, inspired by the success of the date three days ago. Suddenly, the phone rang and the champion woke up.

"Hello?"

"Damn it, Red! What the hell did you do?!" came Green's voice.

"Huh?"

"Pesky girl is forcing me to wear suits and is burning all of my other clothes! What the hell did you say to her when she visited you?!"

"Uh…" Red rubbed the back of his neck and wondered what to do. He considered in simply hanging up, but chose not to. There was no need to fuel the rage of the already-enraged Gym Leader. Luckily, there was another call incoming. "Oh, there's another call coming in." Red pressed a button to answer the other call. "Hello?" As the champion listened to the person on the other line, he froze. "What? … Platinum?"

And…

What Could Have Been (1 of 2):

Possibility 1/4:

"Get your asses out here, or I'll shove so many stink bombs up your asses that you'll be burping out stink gas!"

Possibility 2/4:

"Get your asses out here, or I'll shove so many stink bombs up your asses that you'll be crapping out stink bombs!"

Possibility 3/4:

"Get your asses out here, or I'll shove so many stink bombs down your throats, that next time you open your mouth, you're going to smell the stink all around you!"

Possibility 4/4:

"Get your asses out here, or I'll shove so many stink bombs down your throats that your breath will permanently smell like stink bombs!"

(2 of 2)

"And now, seeing you making the exactly the same mistake… I just got reminded of that day…" Blue suddenly glared at Red. "Also, much heavier than Platinum?!"

"Uh oh…" Red muttered. "How did you…"

"Why you! I'll have you know that everyone else thinks I'm very thin! And Platinum is unnaturally thin! She's also 7 years younger! Of course she's lighter than me! But you didn't tell her that she was lighter than me. Instead, you said that I was heavier than her!" she yelled angrily as she tightened Red's tie once more. "What is wrong with you?! And what is wrong with you males?! Don't you know how to say things without insulting anyone?!"

"Don't… kill… me…" Red gasped out. "I… have… a… date… that… you… forced… me… to… make… with… Yellow…"

"Now you make me sound violent and crazy!"

And so ends all of the first ever Red & Yellow. Future attempts? Maybe in a long while…

Next up, or rather multiple chapters coming up will be the applicable pairings of the Dex Holders in order after Red & Yellow. So Green & Blue, Gold & Crystal, and so on until Black & White. White is not a Dex Holder, but Black is. So, after Diamond & Platinum, the next pairing would involve Black, and as such, Black & White.

Until the Green & Blue pops out as SE #026 (halfway done, as this chapter started around the same time as the Green & Blue), leave reviews and wait for SA #010 (as it'll probably come first).
