Pokémon World
In this world there are living creatures called Pokémon, there are of them in the land, the skies and even in the sea, the people who caught Pokémon for the battles are called Pokémon Trainers.
Kanto: Pallet Town
In Pallet Town, inside a house there are two children, one has white skin, blue eyes and light brown hair, and he is wearing a blue-striped shirt, brown shorts and green socks, his name is Caleb Ketchum. The other is a girl with white skin, light blue eyes and light brown hair tied with two ribbons in pigtails and she is wearing a blue overall dress with purple shirt and pink socks, her name is Sara Ketchum, Caleb's twin sister.
"Hey, mom!" Young Caleb said running along with her twin sister. "Can we go, please!?"
"To Professor Oak's Pokémon Camp!" Young Sara added.
Her mom has white skin, light brown hair tied in a ponytail and light blue eyes, she is wearing a dark blue shirt, a light blue vest and long purple skirt, she is Eva Ketchum.
"It's a really cool trip to a camp where you get to go and check out Pokémon with Professor Oak!" Young Caleb explained.
"Oh! So they have a camp for that, too? Alright. I'll fill in an application for you, then." Eva said and Young Caleb gasps with excitement.
"Yay! Alright! Alright! Yay!" Young Caleb said with excitement.
"But I have an early appointment that day that I can't change." Eva was saying but Caleb wasn't listening as he was too excited and then she asked. "Are you sure you can wake yourself up?"
"Don't worry mom, I'll wake him up my brother." Young Sara said.
"I'm glad you're hearing me for him." Eva said.
"Thanks mom." Young Sara said.
Fields
The nature in the Pokémon world is so wonderful seeing those Pokémon roaming across the fields.
The lizard-like Pokémon wearing a white skull as a helmet and wielding a bone as weapon is Cubone, the plant-like Pokémon with yellow head, roots-like body and green leaves as arms is Bellsprout, the green caterpillar-like Pokémon is Caterpie, the purple butterfly-like Pokémon with red eyes, white wings, blue small hands and blue feet is Butterfree, the light brown bird-like Pokémon which is inspired from the waxwing is Pidgey and the sparrow-like Pokémon which is slightly dark brown color is Spearow.
All of them are Pokémon native from the Kanto region, unless this one which appeared from a treetop, it is a small, ground-dwelling rodent-like Pokémon with pale yellow fur, its ear-tips, collar, and tail are black and angular and has pink rounded cheeks, that one is a Pichu.
"Pi-Pichu!" Pichu said before climbing down from the tree with excitement since he is younger.
The little and cute Pichu was watching his surroundings.
"Pichu. Pichu?" Pichu wondered with his ears perking up. "Pi-Pi-Pichu."
Then the tiny Pichu sees 4 Butterfree trilling.
"Pichu! Pichu! Pi-Pichu!" Pichu said happily.
But as Pichu was around with joy as the Butterfree flew off there was a cave and eyes were seen, then a purple rattlesnake-like Pokémon called Ekans came out to attack, clearly Ekans is a predator, but Pichu noticed it.
"Pichu!" Pichu said, using Thunderbolt to shock Ekans
After Ekans receives the attack, the purple snake slithers away to the cave scared while Pichu is a bit wiped from his own attack and falls down. Apparently, it appears Pichu is still learning to control his electricity and as Pichu gets up.
"Pi." The tiny Pichu sighs before getting up and looking up. "Pi-Pi-chu. Pichu?"
The Pichu sees a couple of white furred monkey-pig hybrids-like Pokémon called Mankey gibbering in the trees.
"Pi-Pichu?" Pichu wonders while turning around.
He finds two small rodent-like Pokémon called Nidoran, the purple one is male while the light blue one is female, it was a couple since the male Nidoran is nuzzling the female one, after seeing the Pokémon Pichu runs off.
"Pichu? Pi-Pichu!" Pichu said before running to a cliff.
He sees a view of a herd of brown ostriches-like Pokémon, the ones with two heads are Doduo while the ones of three heads are Dodrio, the Doduo and their evolved form were running as a flock of Pidgey was flying.
"Pi-Pichu." Pichu said while seeing the Dodrio and Doduo herd.
He could see the wilderness where there are many Pokemon who live in groups, and it seems that this poor Pichu is all alone, just then his train of thoughts was interrupted by the wind blowing.
"Pichu?" Pichu wondered as he turned to see behind him.
It was two men wearing green clothes, brown coats, brown hats and black sunglasses (based from the two poachers from Dreamworks' Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa), and for their look they were Pokémon Hunters, greedy people who hunts Pokémon to sell them at the black market, and they have an evolved form of Spearow which is called Fearow and anthropomorphic fire being inspired from Karura from the Japanese myths and it is called Magmar.
"Well, well, well." The poacher #1 said.
"Look what we have here." The poacher #2 said greedily.
"A wild Pichu in Kanto, we could make a lot of money." The poacher #1 said, thinking of catching Pichu but only for money.
"Magmar, use Smokescreen!" The poacher #2 ordered his Magmar.
"Mag!" The poacher's Magmar said while releasing a black smoke from the mouth.
"Pichu!" Pichu replied in shock before covering his mouth and was disgusted by the smoke.
"Fearow, use Drill Run!" The poacher #1 ordered.
"Fearow!" The poacher's Fearow said before spinning the beak like a drill and dashing towards Pichu.
Luckily the Pichu was able to recover himself before barely dodging the Drill Run's attack by jumping but fell off the cliff screaming.
"He fell off the cliff!" The poacher #2 exclaimed in disbelief.
"He won't go far." The poacher #1 said, clearly decided to catch Pichu, and turned to see his Fearow. "Fearow, search for that Pichu."
"Fear!" The poacher's Fearow nodded, clearly obeying the poacher before taking flight in the search of Pichu.
Now speaking of the tiny Pokémon, he is still falling while screaming for his life until he bumps at a few tree branches then falls into the arms of some Pokemon.
"That was scary…! But where am I…?" - Pichu subtitle while getting up after fall.
"You're safe, little one." - The Pokémon subtitle while holding Pichu in the arms.
The Pichu saw that he was caught by a light brown kangaroo-like Pokémon called Kangaskhan.
"Who are you…!?" - Pichu subtitles while shrieks scared.
"Don't worry, little one. I'm Kangaskhan and you're in good hands." - Kangaskhan subtitled.
"Thanks, Kangaskhan." - Pichu subtitled, he was happy and relieved to be saved.
Then a baby from Kangaskhan's pouch came out with curiosity, but the baby wasn't alone, a brown fox-like Pokémon called Eevee who is from Pichu's size was in Kangaskhan's pouch too, the spot at the tip of the tail is flower-shaped, meaning that Eevee is a girl.
After the Baby Kangaskhan comes out of the pouch to Pichu, he giggles and trills playfully.
"Hehehe… That tickles…" - Pichu subtitled; he was giggling as the Baby Kangaskhan nuzzled Pichu.
Then Pichu notices other Kangaskhan mothers with their babies.
"Whoa… There are more of them…!" - Pichu subtitle; the little was amazed at the sight of a group of Kangaskhan.
"Everybody!" - The Kangaskhan leader subtitled and the others Kangaskhan spot the Kangaskhan leader. - "Let's move!"
They head out, as the baby Kangaskhan gets in its mother's pouch and they walk away.
"Mom, can he come with us?" - Eevee subtitle; waiting anxiously for Pichu to come with them.
"Of course he can, sweetie." - Kangaskhan subtitle; gladly accepting Eevee's request.
Then the mother Kangaskhan approaches the little Pichu and gently picks it up and places it in her pouch and he comes out from the pouch while Eevee giggled.
"You're so cute." - Eevee subtitle; complimenting Pichu who couldn't help but blush. "I'm Eevee, nice to meet you." - Eevee subtitle; introducing her name to Pichu.
"Likewise, I'm Pichu." - Pichu subtitle; introducing himself to Eevee.
"Welcome to the family, Pichu." - Kangaskhan Baby subtitle; welcoming Pichu as a new brother.
The herd kept moving across the forest until they found berries and started to pick them up for their infants. The mother Kangaskhan then picks three berries for her baby, Eevee and Pichu, Pichu was curious, as the mother Kangaskhan insisted, and Pichu then accepts the berry. Eevee eats her berry slowly as the excited Baby Kangaskhan eats the berry whole, much to Pichu's shock as the Baby Kangaskhan was laughing and trilling.
"Wow!" - Pichu subtitle; in surprise.
As the mother looked up there was no berry left.
"There aren't any berries." - Kangaskhan mother subtitle.
"Oh no…" - Baby Kangaskhan subtitle; he was disappointed.
"Here, take it." - Pichu subtitle; offering the berry to Baby Kangaskhan but it shakes the head meaning no as an answer. - "Huh?"
Pichu insisted, until the mother Kangaskhan takes the berry.
"Open wide." - Kangaskhan subtitle.
Then Pichu opens his mouth wide and Kangaskhan has him eat the berry whole much to Eevee's surprise.
"Good boy." - Kangaskhan subtitle; she said between laughs.
The Baby Kangaskhan giggles to Pichu, also Eevee joined the giggling as Pichu munches the berry and gulps.
"It's tasty!" - Pichu subtitle; liking the berry's flavor.
Now, the once-lonely Pichu is now happily living with a small group of Kangaskhan. Later, they were then seen in a pond where the Kangaskhan mother was just sitting down while Pichu sang and swam, Eevee and Baby Kangaskhan swam happily, then we saw the three swimming together in opposite directions till they bumped into each other.
"Oh goodness!" - Kangaskhan subtitle; she was concerned.
Then they came out of the water and both laughed at each other. And later during the night they were in a cave with the others sleeping, as baby Kangaskhan and Eevee slept, only baby Kangaskhan was snoring, and Pichu had trouble sleeping until the mother Kangaskhan places her hand do where Pichu is before getting patted, the mother Kangaskhan was sleeping happily and Pichu then falls asleep relaxed.
Pallet Town: Caleb's House
A week has passed until the day arrived for Professor Oak's camp. Caleb was still sleeping, wearing light blue pajamas, his bedroom has teddies from Pokémon and posters from the Pokémon Starters of Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova, Kalos, Alola, Galar and Paldea, the boy has much love for the Pokémon.
"Pokemon Camp... so fun. I can't wait." Young Caleb said while sleeping.
"Brother, wake up!" Young Sara called him while opening the door causing the Young Caleb to wake up abruptly before falling from his bed. "Good morning."
"Good morning, sis." Young Caleb said while rubbing his eyes.
"Today is the day for Oak's Pokémon Camp." Young Sara said.
"Oh right!" Young Caleb said while getting up.
Then after having breakfast, the siblings were now wearing their usual clothes, Caleb has teal sneakers and Sara has light purple sneakers, they have dark blue and pink backpacks, and they went to Oak's Pokémon Camp.
Professor Oak's Lab
Young Caleb was running as Young Sara was following him.
"Wait brother, not so fast!" Young Sara called him.
"I cannot arrive late!" Young Caleb said while still running.
But as he was running he bumped accidentally with another girl around his age, she has semilong blue hair and blue eyes, she was wearing light blue-sleeveless shirt, pink skirt, pink sneakers, purple socks and light blue backpack.
"Oh dear…" Young Sara said while shaking her head as Young Caleb immediately before realizing that he bumped with the new girl.
"I'm really sorry, it was not on purpose!" Young Caleb said while bowing rapidly apologetically and gave his hand offering to help her to stand up.
"It's okay." The new girl said while smiling before accepting his help, the young boy couldn't help but blush at the sight of the new girl. It seems like he is seeing an angel but his train of thoughts is interrupted until the new girl asks for his name. "What's your name?"
"My name is Caleb, and she is my twin sister, Sara." Young Caleb introduced himself and his twin sister.
"Hi." Young Sara said, greeting the new girl.
"My name is Aria, nice to meet you." The new girl called Aria introduced herself.
"So, you came here for the Pokémon Camp too?" Sara asked Aria.
"Yeah." Aria answered.
"I have an idea, let's go together." Caleb said.
"Okay." Aria nodded.
The trio kept going until they met Professor Oak, he has grayish brown hair and he is wearing a white lab coat and a red shirt, light brown pants and dark brown shoes. He has more children gathered there.
"Hi Professor Oak." They greeted him.
"Hi children, I see you all came ready for the Pokémon Camp." Professor Oak greeted them, until he noticed Young Caleb. "Look what we have here, it is Caleb."
"How do you know my name?" Young Caleb asks, surprised.
"I remember I met your father a long time ago, he was one the best Pokémon Trainers around the world." Professor Oak explained to the young boy.
"I didn't know you met my father before he…" Young Caleb was saying until he felt tears shedding from his eyes.
"What's wrong?" Young Aria asked with concern.
"I miss my father so much…" Young Caleb said while wiping the tears away from his eyes.
"I'm so sorry…" Young Aria said before hugging Caleb to comfort him.
"It was so sad losing him." Professor Oak said with sorrow before changing the subject. "But assure you that the camp will brighten your day."
Now with the children gathered, the group went inside the bus ready to go into a forest for the camp.
Fields
After traveling in the bus, the children were so excited to see the wild Pokémon, however, Professor Oak was in charge of the group.
"Alright, then, it's time to observe the multitude of Pokemon living in this forest." Professor Oak said, calling the children.
"Yay!" The children cheered before giggling innocently.
Professor Oak and the kids see a Pokémon Trainer with a tiny light blue turtle-like Pokémon with orange shell called Squirtle using Bubble Beam at a wild Caterpie and hits it successfully.
"Whoa! A wild Caterpie!" Caleb said.
"Squirtle!" The trainer's Squirtle said as the trainer got ready the Pokéball.
"Now, go! Pokeball!" The trainer's Squirtle said before tossing the Pokeball which hits Caterpie and it goes in.
The Pokeball shook three times until it beeped, meaning the capture was a success.
"Alright!" The Pokémon Trainer said before laughing a bit and picked up the Pokeball. "I just caught a Caterpie!"
All kids gasp with amazement at their sight of the trainer catching a Pokémon.
"Just as you observed, by throwing Pokeballs at wild Pokemon, you have a chance to catch them. And when the rest of you turn ten, you can become Trainers. You'll then choose a first partner Pokemon suitable for beginners. That's when you and your Pokemon will be able to go out on your very own journey!" Professor Oak explained the children.
"Wow, that sounds so awesome!" The children said.
"But before then, you'll want to learn everything you can about Pokemon." Professor Oak told the children.
"Alright, Professor, we will!" The children said.
"I wish to be a Pokémon Trainer now." Young Caleb said to himself.
"Caleb, we are not old enough yet to be Pokémon Trainers." Young Sara told him.
"Aww man…" Young Caleb groaned as Aria giggled at the funny antics of Caleb.
Later the group sees seeds-like Pokémon with egg forms called Exeggcute passing by a path as the Professor Oak and his class walk; they then stop to see a yellow cocoon-like Pokémon called Kakuna.
"Who can tell me something about this Pokemon?" Professor Oak asked the children.
"It's a Kakuna, the cocoon Pokémon!" Young Caleb answered.
"Ooh, precisely!" Professor Oak said, impressed.
Then the group sees a brown duck-like Pokémon holding a leek like a weapon, the name of the Pokémon is Farfetch'd.
"Then you probably know this one, too." Professor Oak said.
"Mm-hmm." Young Caleb nodded before answering "That's a Farfetch'd! It's got a leek that can swing like a sword and slice up all kind of stuff!"
"Wow!" The children were amazed
"Amazing! Wow!" A kid said.
"You know everything!" Another kid said.
Young Caleb couldn't help but blush at the compliments. Later they see a brown mole-like Pokémon called Diglett.
"That's a Diglett! It's like to eat tree roots!" Caleb said.
"Diglett." Diglett said, but then two other heads emerged revealing itself as a Dugtrio.
"The evolved form of Diglett!" Young Caleb guessed right.
"Trio! Trio! Trio!" Dugtrio said while overlapping before going under and digging away.
"They've got amazing power. They can dig tunnels at over 60 miles per hour!" Young Caleb explained.
"How do you know that?" Aria asked him with curiosity.
"My dad gifted me a book about the Pokémon of Kanto." Young Caleb answered.
"Looks like you came well prepared for this journey." Professor Oak said, impressed by Caleb.
The group kept advancing until they saw the group of Kangaskhan.
"Do you kids know who that Pokémon is?" Professor Oak asked the children.
"It's a Kangaskhan." Caleb guessed again.
"Very good." Professor Oak said before changing. "Okay children, let's have lunch here."
The children prepared the picnic clothes for lunch there, Caleb and Sara were close to Aria and a new girl with blonde-hair and teal eyes, she is wearing a light green overall dress, white socks, pink shoes and has a butterfly hair clip in her hair.
"There, it is enough for you two." The blonde-haired girl was feeding a berry sliced in two for a wild Pidgey and a purple mouse-like Pokémon called Rattata who were praised.
"Hello." Young Sara greeted the new girl.
"Ahh…!" The new girl gave a frightened yelp.
"Sorry, I didn't want to startle you, but I was impressed to see you feeding those Pokémon." Young Sara apologized, but the new girl looked away shyly. "My name is Sara and he is my twin brother, Caleb. What's your name?"
"Um… I'm Leyla." Leyla replied quietly.
"Sorry about that, Leyla is a bit shy when she meets new people." Aria said.
"It's okay, take your time Leyla." Caleb said, clearly understanding her as Leyla smiled shyly.
Meanwhile, Pichu and Eevee were playing in the fields by running until they saw Caleb's group. The children have apples, cookies, chocolates, chips, onigiris and sandwiches (just like the ones in Pokémon Scarlet/Violet). The sandwich of Caleb has mayonnaise, mustard, ham, cheese, avocado, tomato and bacon, the one of Sara has mayonnaise, rice and boiled egg, the one of Sara has jam, strawberry and banana, and the one of Aria has mayonnaise, ketchup, fried fillet and potato salad, clearly they have different tastes. Pichu and Eevee were curious to see the food, in seconds they stared back at the group of Kangaskhan and the Pokémon duo decided to go quickly, even if Pichu was attacked by two Pokémon hunters he saw the children very friendly.
"I'm glad to bring this sandwich for the camp." Young Caleb said, enjoying his sandwich.
As they keep eating, Leyla notices the curious Pichu and Eevee.
"Oh, you have an Eevee and a Pichu close to you two." Leyla said with a small smile seeing Pichu close to Young Caleb and Eevee close to Young Aria.
The two youngsters turned to see the two wild Pokémon.
"Oh, hi." Young Caleb greeted the wild Pichu, the boy started to pet the wild Pichu below his right pink cheek and was squealing in delight.
"Oh my gosh! It's so adorable!" Young Aria said, cooing the wild Eevee close to her, then she pets the wild Eevee behind her ears and squeals in delight.
"Pi-Pichu." The wild Pichu says while trying to reach Caleb's sandwich.
"Eev-Eevee." The wild Eevee says while trying to reach Aria's sandwich."
"Do you want some? Okay." Young Aria said before giving a piece from her sandwich to feed Eevee.
Then Caleb did the same with the wild Pichu who is meeting a gentle human, but unknown to them the same Fearow working for the Pokémon Hunters found Pichu before flying back with the two poachers.
"Did you find him?" The poacher #1 asked.
"Fearow." The poacher's Fearow replied with a nod.
"But we have a problem, that Pichu is with those children." The poacher #2 said they noticed the Pichu close to the children.
"It doesn't matter, somehow or another I'll force those children to give us that Pichu." The poacher #1 said, willing to capture Pichu.
Back with Caleb's group, the boy realizes.
"Pichu, hide inside my backpack, I don't have enough age yet to bring a Pokémon with me and I could get in trouble if you're with me." Young Caleb explained to Pichu but he wasn't sure yet. "Don't worry, I'll feed you if you obey me."
"Chu." Pichu nodded with a smile before obeying Caleb and went inside his backpack.
"You too, do the same, Eevee." Young Aria instructed the wild Eevee who nodded before hiding in her backpack.
"Okay children, the lunch is over, now let's go to explore more Pokémon." Professor Oak called the children.
"Yay!" The children cheered.
Just after they packed up their things they resumed until Flamethrower appeared from nowhere and barely hit the group but startled the children.
"What is going on here!?" Professor Oak exclaimed.
"So, you must be Professor Samuel Oak." The poacher #2 said.
"Who are you two!? Don't you see that we're having a Pokémon Camp!" Professor said, doing his best to protect the children.
"We don't want to cause problems, just we want to capture a Pichu who is in your group of children." The poacher #1 answered.
"A Pichu? We don't see Pichu here in Kanto." Professor Oak said, confused.
"Don't play with us, I saw one of those kids having a Pichu!" The poacher #1 demanded.
"It is impossible! The children know that they don't have enough age to have Pokémon!" Professor Oak said, a bit angry.
"Yeah!" The children added.
"Very well, tell us where the Pichu is or I'll instruct my Magmar to attack the children." The poacher #2 said, threatening to attack the children.
The children were getting scared, even Aria and Leyla streamed some tears of fear, Caleb was sweating nervously because he knows that Pichu is inside his backpack.
"You won't attack them while I'm here!" Professor Oak said before pulling out a Pokéball. "Go, Dragonite!"
*POKÉMON RED/POKÉMON BLUE MEDLEY / POKÉ FLOATS (SUPER SMASH BROS MELEE)*
He tossed the Pokéball which came out a yellow dragon-like Pokémon with wings called Dragonite who roared.
"Wow!" The children were amazed.
"A Dragonite, maybe we could win more money if we capture it." The poacher # 2 said, greedily.
"I don't know what you are planning to do! But the Pokémon aren't used to hurt people!" Professor Oak said before instructing his Dragonite. "Dragonite, Dragon Rage!"
Professor Oak's Dragonite releases a blue dragon fire from the mouth.
"Dodge it!" Both poachers ordered.
Fearow and Magmar dodged the attacks.
"Now use Smokescreen!" The poacher #2 ordered and Magmar releases black smoke to blind Dragonite.
"Fearow, use Drill Peck!" The poacher #1 ordered and Fearow's beak glowed in white energy before spinning it like a drill and hitting Dragonite.
"It's not fair, it's two against one!" Young Sara pouted with anger.
"We don't do fair." The poacher #2 said sadistically.
"Are you okay, Dragonite?" Professor Oak asked his Pokémon and grunted with a nod. "Use Twister!"
Dragonite flaps the wings creating a tornado.
"Dodge it!" The poachers ordered and both Pokémon dodged.
"Use Mirror Move!" The poacher #1 ordered and his Fearow mimicked Dragonite's move which hits Dragonite.
"Use Mega Punch!" The poacher #2 ordered and Magmar's right fist glowed with white sphere of energy before hitting Dragonite.
Young Caleb was gritting his teeth in frustration, the battle was unfair for the Professor Oak and he couldn't sit with the crossed arms anymore before opening his backpack where Pichu is there.
"Pichu, let's fight against them!" Young Caleb said.
Pichu watched the serious expression of Caleb and he nodded before coming out to face the two poachers.
"Look who decided to show up." The poacher # 1 said as Caleb and Pichu were facing him.
"Caleb, what are you doing!?" Professor Oak exclaimed in a surprised tone.
"I was the one who was hiding Pichu, I didn't know those men were after him, but I cannot let them cause trouble!" Young Caleb explained to Professor Oak.
"He has the same spirit as his father…!" Professor Oak said in his thoughts while helping Dragonite to stand up.
"This will be very easy." The poacher #2 said before giving orders to Magmar. "Magmar, use Fire Punch!"
"Magmar!" Magmar's right fist was covered in flames before going towards Pichu.
"Dodge it and attack!" Young Caleb commanded.
"Chu!" Pichu dodged before using Quick Attack which hits Magmar in the stomach.
"That was Quick Attack, normally Pichu learns that move when he evolves to Pikachu…!" Professor Oak said while seeing the wild Pichu.
"Fearow, use Drill Run!" The poacher #2 ordered.
"Fearow!" The poacher's Fearow said before using the same attack from before.
"Dodge it and attack with a different move!" Young Caleb commanded.
"Chu!" Pichu said before dodging Fearow's attack.
Then Pichu's tiny tail was covered in metal before jumping towards Fearow and smacks his tail against the foe Fearow.
"That was Iron Tail!" Professor Oak said, impressed again.
"Fearow, use Fury Attack!" The poacher #1 ordered.
"Magmar, use Mega Punch!" The poacher #2 ordered.
Fearow's beak glowed in white energy while Magmar did his attack, both went towards Pichu.
"Dodge it!" Caleb commanded.
The wild Pichu obeyed Caleb's order before dodging the attacks.
"Keep attacking!" Both poachers ordered their Pokémon.
Aria was watching in amazement Caleb's bravery facing the two poachers but at the same time she was concerned of seeing them being outnumbered, then she decided to open her backpack where Eevee was there.
"Let's go!" Young Aria told her and she nodded.
"Use your next movement!" Young Caleb commanded.
"Pi-chu!" Pichu said using Thunderbolt zapping Magmar and Fearow but the small rodent-like Pokémon fell to the ground tired after using his electric type attack.
However, Fearow and Magmar still have energies.
"Looks like Pichu has run out of battery." The poacher #1 said.
"Now let's attack him at the same time." The poacher #2 said.
Just before he could give orders, stars came out from nowhere which hit both Pokémon, the one who did the attack was Eevee in the company of Aria. Unknown for both Pokémon, the same Kangaskhan who is a mother-like figure for both Pichu and Eevee, she gasped at her sight of seeing Pichu and Eevee fighting against the poachers.
"Now there's a wild Eevee with them!" The poacher #1 exclaimed.
"I'm having enough with those damned brats!" The poacher #2 says, getting irritated. "Magmar, use Smokescreen!"
"Magmar!" The poacher's Magmar uses his attack to blind both small Pokémon.
"Fearow, use Razor Wind!" Fearow started to charge energy before firing white energy blades going towards Pichu and Eevee.
*ENDS*
Suddenly Kangaskhan put herself in front of Pichu and Eevee as she received the attack. The children, Oak and good Pokémon watched in shock.
"The next time I won't fail!" The poacher #1 grunted.
"Pichu!/Eevee!" Pichu and Eevee exclaimed with tears in their eyes.
"Kangaskhan…" Kangaskhan said weakly, luckily she is still alive.
The sadness from both smallest Pokémon turned in anger before glaring at both poachers.
"Pi… CHUUUU!" Pichu unleashes Thunderbolt with all his strength which zapped Fearow.
"Ee-VEEEE!" Eevee said while tossing a ball of ghostly energy which hit Magmar.
As both Pokémon from the poachers received the attacks, they fell to the ground beaten.
"No!" Both poachers exclaimed in disbelief after being beaten by two smaller Pokémon.
"They've beaten those two men…!" Professor Oak said in shock as both poachers called back their Pokémon inside their Pokéballs.
"I can't believe we lost against a Pichu, an Eevee and two brats!" The poacher #2 said indignantly.
"It doesn't matter, maybe we lost the battle, but we'll take Pichu with us!" The poacher #1 said, willing not to give up.
"Oh no you won't! Pichu, use Thunderbolt!" Young Caleb commanded.
"Pichu!" Pichu said unleashing his attack which zapped both poachers who screamed in pain before collapsing to the ground.
"Phew, I'm glad it's all over…" Young Caleb sighed in relief.
"Now what?" Young Sara asked.
"I'll call Officer Jenny to take those two men in custody." Professor Oak answered.
Pallet Town: Caleb's House
Caleb's mom was cleaning up the house until she saw police cars driving outside.
"I wonder what could happen now." She said.
Even if it doesn't seem like something related to Caleb, she decides to go outside.
Fields
Back in the camp, which possibly could end after being ambushed by two Pokémon Hunters, the parents of the children were there too, Professor Oak was speaking with a young police woman just around either nineteen of age to her twenties with aquamarine hair while the cops were handcuffing the two poachers.
"It's really hard to believe that two children were able to beat those Pokémon Hunters." Professor Oak said.
"I didn't expect them to stop those two hunters either, we had been looking for them for months." Officer Jenny said, impressed.
"About Kangaskhan she will be in the lab just like Pichu and Eevee." Professor Oak added.
Then Officer Jenny sees the two poachers. "You two will go to prison for a long time."
The two poachers were being carried to the police car.
"We would've gotten away with it, if it wasn't for those meddling kids!" The poacher #1 said bitterly before entering the patrol car.
"Yeah, yeah, tell it to the judge." Officer Jenny said, pushing him in the back of the police car.
"Not bad for two children." Young Aria said while having Eevee to her right. "I think I would call you, Felicity."
"Eevee!" Eevee, now nicknamed Felicity, accepted her new name.
"Caleb, Sara!" The mom from both siblings appeared before hugging them. "Thank goodness you two are okay."
"We're okay, mom." Young Caleb reassured.
"Please tell me what happened?" Caleb's mom asked.
"We were in the Pokémon Camp until two poachers attacked us, they were going after Pichu but she and his new friend Aria with a Pichu managed to beat the Pokémon from those two poachers." Young Sara explained.
"He did what!?" Caleb's mom asked in shock and Caleb downs his head in shame.
"I'm sorry mom, those two poachers were battling unfairly against Professor Oak, and I couldn't bear to sit with crossed arms, therefore we decided to battle against them and we beat them, please don't be mad with me or her." Young Caleb explained shamefully while shedding some tears in case that his mom scolds him.
"Caleb…" His mom spoke gently. "I'm proud of you, you were brave just like you father."
Then her son hugged his mom tightly, even Pichu joined the hug.
"Thanks mom." Young Caleb said.
"However, there is a small punishment for you." His mom said in a teasing tone.
"Oh dear…" Young Caleb said with a bit of dread.
"You and your new friend will go daily to check Kangaskhan which will include Pichu and Eevee." His mom said and Caleb and Aria sighed in relief.
"Phew, thank goodness." Young Aria said.
"Now we'll go home." Eva said.
"Just wait for us for a few seconds." Young Caleb said and his mom nodded, he and his new friend turned to see Pichu and Eevee in the Oak's lab since they don't have enough age to have Pokémon. "Pichu, I would like to bring you home but I don't have it allowed to bring you with me."
"Pichu…" Pichu said a bit sad.
"I know it sounds sad, but we'll come daily to the lab to visit you." Young Aria said.
"Eevee." Felicity said with understanding.
"And when the time comes, you'll travel with me." Young Caleb said.
"Pichu." Pichu said happily.
Then Aria turned to see Caleb.
"I'll go back to my home, it was a pleasure to meet you." Young Aria said before kissing Caleb in the right cheek, he couldn't help but blush as Aria giggled with her hands behind her back innocently. "Goodbye."
Then she goes with her parents, Caleb sees Aria one more time. The trip was amazing, dangerous when the poachers appeared, but he made new friends and befriended one Pokémon and someday he could be a great Pokémon Trainer.
Kanto: Pokémon League
3 years passed after Caleb went to Professor's Oak camp, now in the Pokémon League Stadium, two different trainers have different Pokémons, one is a blue tortoise with a brown shell and other is a purple ghost with red eyes, they are called Blastoise and Gengar.
"Yes, this battle of the Pokémon league finals is really picking up steam!" The announcer said.
Blastoise attacks by using Gyro Ball but Gengar dodges.
"Gengar dodges it!" The announcer said.
Then Gengar uses Night Shade.
"It uses Night Shade! But Blastoise withstands it!" The announcer said.
Blastoise managed to resist the attack before using Ice Beam.
"Wait! That was an ice beam!" The announcer said.
The Ice Beam hits Gengar and freezes the ghost Pokémon too.
"And Gengar is frozen! What will the trainer do now?" The announcer asked.
The trainer called Corey returns his Gengar inside the Pokénall and brings out another Pokéball.
"There goes the Pokéball!" The announcer said.
Corey throws his Pokéball letting out a frog-like Pokémon with a flower in the back called Venusaur.
"And the next Pokémon up is Venusaur!" The announcer said.
Venusaur uses Razor Leaf to attack Blastoise but the tortoise hides inside the shell protecting itself from the attack.
"It's a Razor Leaf!" The announcer said.
Then Blastoise used Hydro Pump hitting Venusaur.
"But Blastoise's Hydro Pump scores a direct hit!" The announcer said.
Then Venusaur uses Take Down and Blastoise uses Skull Bash with both attacks colliding before using Solar Beam and Hydro Pump respectively.
Pallet Town: Caleb's House
Now in Pallet Town, Caleb is 10 years old, he is wearing a blue jacket, light green t-shirt, light blue jeans, white socks and teal sneakers.
"Oh yeah! Get 'em!" Caleb said, overexcited for the battle.
The moment he's been waiting for will be tomorrow, and also thanks to constant visits to see Pichu in the lab, Caleb is ready to start his Pokémon Trainer journey. Typically Pokémon Trainers start with Bulbasaur, Charmander, or Squirtle.
Later Caleb was sleeping in his bed, wearing pajamas for sleep , having a dream of having a Pokémon Battle.
"Pikachu, here we go." Caleb said while sleeping but he grabs the Pokéball Clock. "All right, I choose you!"
He throws the clock and smashes it, and goes back to sleep. While he is sleeping, outside Caleb's bedroom, Sara who is now 10 years old and she is wearing a purple shirt, jean shorts, pink socks and light purple sneakers and now her hairstyle is semilong hair.
"Sara, honey? What's the matter?" Eva asked her daughter.
"Nothing." Sara answered sadly but Eva wasn't buying it one bit.
"No secrets, dear. Tell your mother the truth right now." Eva said and Sara sighed sadly.
"It's just, I don't want Caleb to go." Sara said.
"Dear, we have been over this, Caleb has made up his mind." Eva said.
"I know, but I'm going to miss him." Sara said and tears trails from her eyes.
Eva knew as long as Sara and Caleb can remember, they have never been apart even once and they were really inseparable.
"I know, I'm going to miss him, too, but you have to remember he's going to be back." Eva said and this made Sara feel a little better.
"I guess you're right." Sara said.
"Dry those tears and change into your pajamas. You should be asleep." Eva said.
"Okay." Sara said, hugging her mother and she hugged her back.
After sleeping until the next day, in Caleb's room, he was sleeping until his mom opened the door.
"Caleb Ketchum, are you still asleep? You'll be late getting to Professor Oak's lab!" His mom told him, causing Caleb to wake up.
"Yeah, right, Professor Oak's Lab…" Caleb was shocked before getting up late panicking. "Mom, why didn't you wake me up!?"
Then he quickly changed to his traveling clothes.
"You said to yourself when you turned ten, you could wake up on your own!" Eva said.
Professor Oak's Lab
Meanwhile at the professor's house a huge crowd is seen standing outside as Gary Oak, the professor's grandson has just retrieved his first Pokémon which was a Squirtle who has beaten a Bulbasaur who is a green reptile-like Pokémon with a bulb on the back, despite the disadvantage of type, clearly his Squirtle was decided to win. Along with cheerleaders cheering him on.
"Gary! Gary! He's our man! If he can't do it, no one can! Yeah!" The cheerleaders chanted as Sora rushed through the crowd.
"EXCUSE ME!" Caleb shouted as he finally got through only to bump into a boy around his age. Wearing a blue shirt, dark blue pants, a necklace of a yin yang one side being green and another being yellow, and brown hair.
"Hey watch where you're going!" The boy growled but he got a good look at him and instantly recognized him. "Well, if it isn't Caleb. Better late than never. At least you get the chance to meet me again."
Caleb gave the boy a scowling look as he knew who he was.
"Hello Gary." Caleb said in an irritated tone.
"Mr. Gary to you." Gary corrected him. "Show some respect."
"Yeah, of course, the snobbish grandson of Professor Oak." Caleb said in his thoughts while growling.
"Well Caleb, you snooze, you lose, and you're right behind right from the start. I got a Pokémon and you don't!" Gary said arrogantly.
"Yeah, I could see that you got a Squirtle." Caleb said while rolling his eyes and Gary called him back to the Pokéball.
"That's right, you loser, and right now it's inside this Pokéball." Gary said as he took the Pokéball out, pressed the button to make it fit in the palm of the hand and twirls it on his finger.
"Let's go Gary~Let's go!" The cheerleaders chanted while the crowd cheered for him.
"Thank you fans! Thank you!" Gary addressed his peers. "Thank you all for this great honor! I promise you that I will become a Pokémon Master and make the town of Pallet known all around the world!"
"YAY!"
"Sorry to pull away from your adoring public." Caleb said, grabbing Gary attention's. "But surely you already knew that your Squirtle was at a disadvantage against a plant type like Bulbasaur."
"I already know that, but my Squirtle was already stronger than Bulbasaur." Gary said arrogantly. "So, what about you? Who will be your next Pokémon? But I'm afraid that I was the third trainer to get my first Pokémon."
Caleb was growling until he realized about his Pichu he met in Professor Oak's Camp.
"I have my first Pokémon waiting for me in the lab!" Caleb said smugly.
"Oh really? Let me guess? Is the same Pichu who lived in my grandpa's lab. Maybe he is an electric type but he hurts himself with his own electricity." Gary said, mocking Caleb's choice but he ignored him while getting another idea.
"Pichu evolved into Pikachu on my ninth birthday if you don't know it!" Caleb said, shocking Gary in seconds before recomposing himself.
"Well, good luck with your Pikachu. I have chosen the best Pokémon from Professor Oak. And as you already know, he's my grandfather." Gary said arrogantly before getting into a ruby red automobile waiting for him. "Thank you all for witnessing history in the making! And now I, Gary Oak, am to set off into the world to learn the ways of the Pokémon trainer!"
Caleb just stood, a bit angered but satisfied with telling the Pokémon that he chose, then he impersonated Gary's hairstyle.
"And as you already know, he's my grandfather." Caleb said mockingly to Gary before coming back to his usual hairstyle. "Just because he's the professor's grandkid doesn't mean that he has to rub it in my face."
"Don't let him get to you, Caleb. He's not worth it." A female voice told him.
He turned to see Leaf, a young girl with slightly messy dark brown hair that goes up to her lower back. She wore a sleeveless teal shirt with a bit of black, a short pinkish-red skirt, cyan slouch socks, and white shoes with a pinkish-red stripe in the middle, also a white bucket hat with a pinkish-red Pokeball logo, black wristbands and she is carrying a bright yellow messenger bag.
"Hi Leaf." Caleb said, greeting her. "I see that you got a Bulbasaur, but I'm sorry if you lost the battle."
"Don't worry, the advantage of losing is that you can learn from the mistake." Leaf said.
"Bulbasaur." Bulbasaur said.
"Yeah, thanks for the advice." Caleb said.
"Ok, see you." Leaf said before calling back to her Bulbasaur inside the Pokéball and departed from the town.
Later, Caleb arrived at the lab where Kangaskhan is in the entry.
"Hi Kangaskhan." Caleb greeted the kangaroo-like Pokémon.
"Kangas." Kangaskhan said, greeting the boy who befriend with Pichu before evolving.
"I see Pichu isn't in your pouch anymore." Caleb said, then he wonders about Eevee who was nicknamed Felicity and he says in his thoughts. "I wonder where Aria and Felicity are?"
Then he entered the lab.
"I see you arrived just in time." Professor Oak said.
"Oh good morning, Professor." Caleb greeted. "So where's Pikachu?"
"Pikachu?" He asked the boy keeping a straight face before he chuckled. "I still remember when you bravely faced those two Pokémon Hunters."
"I know that, I know I was younger than now that day." Caleb said, remembering clearly that day. "But I waited a long time for this."
"Very well, Caleb." Professor Oak said. "If you feel that way, then who am I to deny you a Pokémon? Come with me."
The professor led Sora into his lab leading up to four Pokéballs, just one has a bolt of lightning engraved on it.
"So, where is Pikachu?" Caleb asked, waiting for him.
"Your Pikachu is inside of this Pokéball." Professor Oak said, pointing at the Pokéball with the bolt of lightning engraved on it.
Then suddenly, the Pokéball opened by itself revealing a yellow mouse Pokémon with red cheeks, pointy ears with black tips, brown stripes on its back and a lightning-shaped tail with a brown patch.
"Pikachu." Pikachu said before jumping in Caleb's arms.
"Pikachu!" Caleb said, hugging his first official Pokémon.
"I didn't expect him to come out of the Pokéball just now." Professor Oak said, but he couldn't blame the electric Pokémon since he was anxious to travel with his human partner.
"What do you say buddy? Are you ready for this?" Caleb asked his first befriended Pokémon in the past.
"Pika." Pikachu replied with a smile.
Then Professor Oak handed Caleb some additional Pokéballs and a small red device.
"Now take these with you. Your Pokédex will give you information on any Pokémon you scan or search for. And these Pokéballs will contain the Pokémon you battle in the wild." Professor Oak explained to Caleb. "Take good care of your Pikachu."
"I will." Caleb said before taking his Pokédex and additional Pokéballs.
A few minutes later, Caleb had just gotten out of the lab to begin his journey when he was greeted by his mom and what appeared to be his neighbors. Caleb walked up and placed Pikachu down. Eva is holding a green backpack with yellow streaks on the side.
"Mom." Caleb said when he saw everyone.
"Oh Caleb." Eva said in tears. "I'm so proud of you. You are finally going to fulfill your dream and start your Pokémon training. I am going to miss you so much. Oh my little boy."
It is normal for her to miss her son a lot after living 10 years straight with her.
Pikachu walked to his side looking curiously around at the humans outside while Eva unzipped his backpack and pulled out its contents.
"I've packed your shoes, your jacket, and extra clothes, along with some shirts and underwear. I also packed your favorite snacks and some hot chocolate, in case you want something hot, but be careful not to burn yourself. And I have packed some clotheslines to do your laundry and some rubber gloves…" Her sentence was cut off when Caleb quickly grabbed the back from her.
"Mom, please!" Caleb said, blushing. "I'm old enough to take care of myself. Besides, you're embarrassing me in front of everyone here."
"I understand." Eva said before looking down and spotted Pikachu next to him. "Hi Pikachu!"
"Pika." Pikachu chirped, greeting Caleb's mother since he met her in the past.
"How curious? I thought all Pokémon stayed in their Pokéballs." Eva pointed out. "Why not this one?"
"Uh, oh yeah." Caleb said, knowing that his mom was right and he pulled Pikachu's Pokéball. "Okay Pikachu, time to go inside."
Caleb lightly threw the Pokéball only to block it with its tail. "Pi."
Caleb tried and tried but Pikachu just blocked the Pokéball every time until the boy realized one thing now.
"Don't you like staying inside of your Pokéball, do you?" Caleb asked his Pokémon.
"Pi." Pikachu said, shaking his head, saying no as an answer.
"Oh, we are already understanding each other." Caleb said before putting Pikachu's Pokéball, and turned to see his mom. "Pikachu doesn't like staying inside his Pokéball."
"I see, but unless you two are friends for a long time." Eva said.
"Yeah, it's true." Caleb said while petting his Pikachu in the forehead.
"And be sure to change your underwear every single day." Eva told him.
"Okay mom." Caleb said, embarrassed at that part.
"Pikachu." Pikachu chuckled.
Route 1
Now with everything ready, the new Pokémon Trainer starts his journey and with a befriended Pikachu when the boy was 7 years old, those two could get along very well.
"Our first day as Pokémon Trainer." Caleb said but suddenly a couple hands covered Caleb's eyes.
"Guess who?" A female voice asked him.
"Aria… is that you?" Caleb asked, recognizing her voice.
The same girl who met three years moves her hands from his eyes, turning to see that Aria is wearing a light blue sleeveless shirt with hood included, dark blue shorts, purple wrist bands, white sneakers with cyan soles, pink socks, her blue hair is now tied into a ponytail and has a light blue streak across her hair, also her Eevee nicknamed Felicity has a cerulean bow in her neck.
"Yeah, that's me." Aria said, giggling.
"Eevee." Felicity said.
"I see your first Pokémon is Felicity." Caleb said.
"Yeah." Aria replied before asking him. "So, what Pokémon have you caught?"
"I'm starting my journey right now." Caleb answered.
"Well, me too." Aria added.
"Now I'll catch new Pokémon." Caleb said before asking her. "Do you wanna see me catching Pokémon?"
"Yeah, it will be funny." Aria answered.
"Eevee." Felicity said.
The duo were exploring across the grasslands.
"So, what Pokémon have you caught?" Caleb asked Aria with curiosity.
"Well, I just caught a Pidgey and a Rattata, they are very common over here." Aria answered.
"Well, I'm going to catch them too." Caleb said and as they continued they saw a Pidgey. "A Pidgey!"
Caleb pointed his Pokédex at the bird Pokémon.
Pidgey, the Tiny Bird Pokémon
Type: Normal/Flying
Pidgey are docile Pokémon, usually avoiding conflict whenever it can. When in danger from predators, Pidgey will whip up sand to protect itself.
"This can be pretty easy to catch." Caleb said before instructing his Pikachu "Okay, Pikachu! Go get it!"
"Pika!" Pikachu responded, ready to battle.
*KANTO WILD POKÉMON BATTLE - POKÉMON GOLD/SILVER/CRYSTAL (SMASH REMIX)*
"Start with Quick Attack!" Caleb commanded and Pikachu went at high speed before ramming Pidgey.
The Tiny Bird retaliated by using Gust which releases wind by flapping his wings, luckily it didn't damage Pikachu so much.
"Now use Swift!" Caleb commanded and Pikachu swung his tail releasing stars which hit Pidgey who retaliates by using Sand Attack which the tiny bird Pokémon use the legs to kick sand.
"Dodge it and use Iron Tail!" Caleb commanded.
"Pika!" Pikachu replied before dodging the Sand Attack and his tail was covered in metal before smacking it against Pidgey
"Now go Pokéball!" Caleb said before pulling out a Pokéball and he readied to throw it.
He then threw the Pokéball at beaten Pidgey, making it flow inside. The Pokéball wobbles around and around until stars then swirl to confirm the catch.
"Yes! My very first catch!" Caleb cheered.
"Wohoo!" Aria cheered for him.
"Pi-Pikachu!/Eevee!" Pikachu and Felicity cheered for Caleb too.
Caleb scanned the Pokéball with his Pokédex to know the moves of Pidgey.
"Gust, Sand Attack, Tackle and Roost. Cool moves." Caleb said and he heard some rustling in the grass, and out came a Rattata. "A Rattata."
Then he points his Pokédex at Rattata.
Rattata, the Mouse Pokémon
Type: Normal
It will chew on anything with its fangs. If you see one, you can be certain that 40 more live in the area. It's cautious in the extreme, and its hardy vitality lets it live in any kind of environment.
"Get ready for another battle, Pikachu." Caleb told him.
"Pika." Pikachu nodded before facing Rattata.
"Pikachu, use Quick Attack!" Caleb commanded and Pikachu did his attack which hit Rattata.
However, the purple mouse-like Pokémon then tackles Pikachu.
"Use Swift!" Caleb told him and Pikachu released stars to hit the purple mouse Pokémon.
However, Rattata then comes right at Pikachu again and then rolls into a ball of fire.
"Dodge it!" Caleb instructed and Pikachu dodged the attack, Caleb managed to recognize the attack. "That was Flame Wheel!"
Rattata uses Flame Wheel again going towards Pikachu.
"Pikachu, stop him by using Thunderbolt on the ground!" Caleb commanded and Pikachu used Thunderbolt which caused Rattata to interrupt his attack. "Now use Iron Tail!"
Pikachu's tail was covered in metal and slammed it against Rattata.
"Now Pokéball, do your thing!" Caleb said before throwing another Pokéball, making it flow inside.
The Pokéball wobbles around and around and stars swirl around the Pokéball confirming the catch.
*ENDS*
"I got myself a Rattata!" Caleb said before grabbing the Pokéball.
"Can you call your two Pokémon? Apparently I saw that your Rattata is different from the mine I caught." Aria said.
"Sure." Caleb said before calling his new Pidgey and Rattata.
Then Aria did the same with her Pidgey and Rattata.
"I knew it." Aria said.
"What is?" Caleb asked.
"My Rattata is a girl while your Rattata is a boy." Aria said.
"Oh, is true. The whiskers of the female Rattata are short." Caleb said, realizing the difference. "But what about Pidgey?"
"The mine that I caught is female, I suppose your Pidgey is male." Aria answered.
Just as Caleb's Pidgey was seeing his surroundings as he steps and then a loud snapping sound is heard, Caleb saw his Pidgey in a metal cage.
"Pidgey!" Caleb exclaimed before approaching his trapped Pokémon. "Don't worry! I'll get you out of there!"
"Where does that cage come from!?" Aria asked.
"I don't know, but I know what to do…!" Caleb replied before turning to see Pikachu. "Pikachu, use Iron Tail on the cage!"
"Pika!" Pikachu nodded before using his move to break the cage and release his Pidgey.
"HEY YOU!" An angry male voice called. "What the hell do ya think you're doing?!"
Caleb and Aria turned around to see two men in their mid-twenties to early-thirties standing there angrily glaring, but directly at Caleb.
"I just saved that Pidgey that you had locked in a cage! My Pidgey to be exact!" Caleb snapped back. "And who are you to do that to Pokémon like that?"
"We're Pokémon Hunters." The first man who is a Pokémon Hunter answered. "We make money selling Pokémon on the black market."
"Wait a second! You must be the girl who released a Caterpie from a cage!" The second Pokémon Hunter answered.
"Did you think you could escape from us!? Now we'll make you pay for interfering in our business!" The first Pokémon Hunter said as the second hunter pulled out a Pokéball.
Knowing that the Pokémon Hunters mean trouble, Caleb and Aria called back their Pidgey and Rattata.
"Spearow! Go!" The second Pokémon Hunter said calling his Spearow which is a minor version of Fearow.
"Spearow!" The hunter's Spearow said as Caleb pointed his Pokédex at the Pokémon
Spearow, the Tiny Bird Pokémon
Type: Normal/Flying
Spearow are hostile and territorial Pokémon. Spearow has a very loud cry that can be heard over half a mile away. If its high, keening cry is heard echoing all around, it is a sign that they are warning each other of danger. It is also known to attack humans and other Pokémon that carelessly stumble onto their territory.
"Spearow?" Caleb gasped. "Huh!?"
"Go get those kids!" The hunter's Spearow ordered and Spearow flew right to Caleb and Aria, just for them to duck while protecting Pikachu and Felicity before the aggressive bird Pokémon could get them.
"Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!" Caleb commanded.
"Pika-chu!" Pikachu said using Thunderbolt which zapped Spearow.
"Aah! Spearow!" The second hunter exclaimed before getting himself angry. "I want that little rat! Besides, nobody does that to my Spearow and gets away with it; especially some punk nosy kid!"
"If we want that money by selling that Pikachu to the black market, we'll need the whole flock to deal with those children in the first place!" The first hunter said before he took a whistle and blew on it.
The whistle blurs sounding like a Spearow's cry and before they knew it, a whole flock of Spearow starts flying towards them.
"Uh oh." Caleb panicked before turning to see Pikachu, Aria and Felicity and asked. "Should we run?"
"Yeah, let's!" Aria answered.
"Eevee!" Felicity nodded.
"Pikachu…!" Pikachu nodded as they started running.
They ran as fast as their legs could carry them and eventually lost the Spearow flock by hiding behind a big tree as the Spearow just flew past the tree not noticing that they lost their targets.
"That was a close one." Caleb panted.
"Pika." Pikachu also panted.
Once both trainers and Pokémon caught their breath, they started walking slowly hoping the Pokémon hunters had lost their trail.
Caleb and Aria sighed as he couldn't believe that there were more Pokémon Hunters. They catch Pokémon in the wild instead of the traditional way and sell them to greedy people who would add them to their collection.
"I hate it that people like them exist." Caleb said.
"Me too." Aria added, in agreement with Caleb.
"They don't seem to understand that Pokémon like you are living creatures. I mean, I know Pokémon have actual thoughts and feelings just like people. That's why I like Pokémon so much." Caleb said.
"Pika." Pikachu said.
"I like Pokémon so much too." Aria said.
"Eevee." Felicity said.
"Let's get out of here in case those Pokémon Hunters appear." Caleb said and Aria nodded.
The two children with their Pokémon make their way and speaking of the Pokémon Hunters, they were still searching for Pikachu mainly.
"That Pikachu couldn't have gone very far." The first hunter said.
"Do you think it has to do with the Pichu that lived in the Kanto region?" The second hunter asked.
"Who knows? But probably that Pichu evolved into Pikachu." The first hunter replied calmly.
"Possibly yes, but probably Hunter J could want that Pikachu." The second hunter said but the first hunter shushed him.
"Not so loud…! She and the Council of Pokémon Hunters are already wanted in the Sinnoh region…! We cannot say that info here in Kanto or another region…!" The first hunter said before changing the subject. "Now let's search for that Pikachu and that Eevee."
"Okay." The second hunter nodded.
Then both Pokémon Hunters resumed before blowing their whistles again. Then the flock of Spearow flew in pursuit of the kids and both Pokémon. Now speaking of Caleb and Aria with their Pokémon, elsewhere, fifteen to twenty minutes later, the kids and Pokémon were miles away from the Pokémon Hunters hoping that they had lost them.
"So, how does Felicity have that bow?" Caleb asked with curiosity.
"I gifted that bow to Felicity when I came for her in the lab." Aria answered before speaking and petting Pikachu. "Normally, Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle are chosen before starting the journey, but Pikachu and Eevee are very special cases."
"Chu." Pikachu said enjoying the petting.
Then Felicity nuzzles gently on Pikachu, causing him to blush. The place looked so peaceful until the flock of Spearow came out from the trees.
*NIGHT OF FATE (KINGDOM HEARTS 1.5 REMIX)*
"Oh crap!" Caleb exclaimed. "It's them again!"
Aria, Felicity and Pikachu turned and saw to their dismay that if the Spearow had spotted them, then the Pokémon hunters were right behind them.
Caleb grabbed Aria's hand and started running, she was being forcefully dragged, by she ran at the same pace as him, the Spearow were gaining on them fast.
"Pikachu! I'll keep you safe!" Caleb said but Pikachu ran ahead hoping that he'll get the bird's attention. "Don't run ahead of us!"
The Spearow flew through Caleb started to peck at Pikachu, fell out of exhaustion and more started to dogpile him and proceeded to peck him.
"Vee!" Felicity exclaimed before attacking with Swift, but the Spearow started to peck her too.
"Felicity!/Pikachu!" Aria and Caleb shouted.
Then Caleb let go of Aria's hand and he went over to Pikachu while receiving some pecks of his own. Caleb picked up the injured Pikachu and Felicity and started running with Aria right behind him. Caleb and Aria made it to a ledge, dreading that it was a dead end.
"We should find another way around." Aria said.
"There's no time for that!" Caleb argued. "We're gonna have to jump down!"
"Are you crazy?" Aria asked. "We won't survive on the way down."
Luckily Caleb had an idea, he grabbed a piece of bark big enough for the both of them and he turned to Aria.
"Do you trust me?" Caleb asked her.
"What?!" She asked him.
"Do you trust me?" He repeated.
Seeing no way out of it she had no choice but to trust him. "Yes?"
Caleb grabbed her hand as they slid down the ledge. They passed some Pokémon living in the area. The Spearow were still on their tail while Aria held onto Caleb as tight as she could while he did the same to Pikachu and Felicity. They made it to the bottom and started to run again. They ran just as fast as they could go with a storm cloud forming. Caleb didn't care if it did start raining, he just cared about keeping Pikachu and Felicity safe. Lightning clashed as the Pokémon hunters rode in on their motorcycles.
"There they are!" The first hunter yelled.
"Don't let them get away!" The second hunter yelled as well.
The Spearow managed to catch up when they started to peck at Caleb and Aria, causing them to trip while Caleb dropped Pikachu and Felicity. Aria managed to get back up, but weakly she walked over to Caleb and both Pokémon.
"Are you okay, Caleb?" Aria asked while picking up the hurt Eevee.
"Yeah." Caleb answered before looking down at Pikachu and he gently picked Pikachu up in his arms and handed him to Aria. "Take Pikachu and run."
"No Caleb." Aria said. " I'm staying beside you. They're after you too because of me!"
"No, I let one of their catches get away." Caleb explained. "I don't want Pikachu to be in even more pain because of me!"
Aria looked in his eyes and saw tears flowing in his eyes, Pikachu saw it as well.
Caleb saw the Spearow flock fly around when the hunters arrived before stopping as Caleb lifted up his arms in defiance against the two hunters and their Spearow.
"Look at that!" The second hunter said. "This kid is actually playing the hero."
"Yeah!" The first hunter laughed. "This kid is either brave or just plain stupid!"
Both hunters just laughed as they saw the look of determination on his face.
"Look kid." The first hunter said to him. "Just give us the Pikachu with Eevee and we'll leave you and your little girlfriend alone."
Caleb didn't trust his words, he knew that was a lie, therefore he just stood there still refusing to move.
"Just who do you think you are messing with us, anyway?" The second hunter asked in bewilderment.
"My name is Caleb from the town of Pallet!" Caleb announced. "I will not be defeated by the likes of you! Not by people who will catch and sell Pokémon for money and other selfish gains! I am destined to be the number one Pokémon master of the world! I will catch Pokémon not for fame and fortune! Not for glory and power! But for the trust and bond that humans we share with Pokémon everywhere! For the friendship that humans and Pokémon have forged since the old days! For the love and compassion that Pokémon trainers give to their Pokémon! The only way that you will ever get Pikachu and this girl with her Eevee is through me!"
Caleb, Felicity and Pikachu just stood there as they listened to Caleb's words.
Pikachu was especially moved, now seeing his mature side to him, he was so lucky to meet a great human friend just like him. Aria was close to shed tears as the boy is about to be torn apart by feral bird Pokémon right before her eyes.
"If you want to die that badly." The second hunter said. "Then we'll give you what you want!"
"Prepare to die." The first hunter added.
"FINISH HIM!" The hunters ordered.
At the crack of the lightning, the Spearow flock dove towards the young Pokémon trainer like raining arrows. As the Spearow were getting closer and closer. Pikachu leapt out of Aria's arms and ran in an effort to save his life as Caleb did for him.
Before Aria and Felicity could call for Pikachu to come back. Pikachu climbed up on Caleb's leg right up to his left shoulder. Caleb was shocked to see that Pikachu had jumped in front of the incoming birds. And just like that, Pikachu let out a powerful Thunderbolt.
"PIKACHU!"
Caleb, Aria, Felicity, the hunters and all the Spearow were caught in the blast. The hunters and Spearow were sent flying in the direction they had come in while Caleb, Aria, Felicity and Pikachu were sent flying in another.
*ENDS*
Once the clouds had cleared. Caleb, Aria, Felicity and Pikachu were knocked out, but not for long. All four had regained consciousness.
"Eevee…" Felicity weakly said.
"Pikachu…" Pikachu weakly said too.
"Well, we beat 'em." Caleb said.
"Pikachu." Pikachu nodded.
"Sounds like Pikachu is saying yes to that. And so is Felicity." Aria agreed.
Caleb groaned as he slowly got up and looked at them. Caleb smiled as Aria got up and lifted Pikachu up and handed him to his trainer.
"Here Caleb." Aria said as she handed the injured Pokémon to him.
He took Pikachu only for his hand to be on top of hers and both blushed when that happened. Then they saw something in the sky which appeared to be a giant bird with its feathers consisting of gold and red, with yellow tail-feathers, a white underside, and green feathers at the tip of its wings. It had a green stripe on its neck, a yellow beak, black rings around its red eyes, and a feathered, yellow crest on its head. Its wings are prismatic, flapping about causing it to leave a trail of a rainbow behind it. It has darkly colored feet and legs with four toes and long talons.
"Whoa." Caleb all he was able to say at the sight. "What is that?"
"It's Ho-Oh." Aria simply said.
"Ho-Oh?" Caleb asked her confused.
"Ho-Oh is a legendary Pokémon." Aria explained to him. "I had only heard about it in stories my grandma used to tell me when I was little. It is said that it revived three dead Pokémon in a burning tower and became its servants. I never thought it was real. It's even more beautiful than I thought."
Caleb turned to Aria and thought to himself.
"Not as beautiful as you." Caleb said in his thoughts while blushing and ended up with a tinge of pink on his cheeks.
They watched Ho-Oh fly into the rainbow left behind by the rain.
Caleb and Aria set off to Viridian City, both carrying their Pokémon in their arms and they kept walking until they saw the town in front of them.
"There it is." Aria said. "Viridian City. This is where I live here."
Caleb turned to see Aria as she turned to him and kissed him on the cheek causing him to blush.
"That was for saving me." She told him.
Pikachu weakly licked Sora's chin as his blush disappeared. They started to walk to the town to get Pikachu and Angel checked into the local Pokémon center to heal.
?
Somewhere in a darker place there are four people.
*VILLAINS OF A SORT (KINGDOM HEARTS 1.5 REMIX)*
One is a young woman with light purple and light blue eyes, she is wearing a dark green sleeveless shirt, brown pants, red gloves and red boots.
The second one is a tall muscular man with gray hair, brown eyes, and recessed in an olive green soldier uniform.
The third one is another man dressed like an Australian stockman, a brown Akubra hat with white crocodile teeth with its dark brown leather band decorated with a rare golden eagle feather, around his neck is a dark gray backward facing bandanna and a brown vest over his cream shirt.
And the last one is a woman with silverish-white hair and a black overcoat and she wore a pair of visors and has a device on her right arm.
"It's been three years since two of our best Pokémon Hunters were defeated." The tall man said, apparently being a witness.
"There are rumors of a boy who befriended a Pichu in the Kanto region and beat those two Pokémon Hunters." The man dressed like an Australian stockman said, who knows about Caleb and his Pikachu, but he doesn't meet the boy yet in person
"A Pichu in the Kanto region is extremely rare, but it is very weird to hear that those two Pokémon were beaten by just one boy." The woman with purple hair said.
"Possibly the Pichu in the Kanto region is just a memory, even if he evolves to Pikachu he could have an excellent price for the black market." The woman with silverish-white hair said.
"Maybe we should send our best men to the Kanto region." The man dressed like an Australian stockman suggested.
"No, Percival McLeach." The woman with silverish-white hair told him. "We cannot risk our presence in the Kanto region."
Then he turned to see the tall man.
"Tell me, Commander Rourke. What about the Pokémon Hunters in the Kanto region?" The woman with silverish-white hair asked the commander.
"Recently two Pokémon Hunters who led a flock of Spearow were beaten by a powerful Thunderbolt, we have some of our best men in the Kanto region." Commander Rourke said.
"Hunter J, but in the Kanto region the Team Rocket is there, also hunting for Pokémon. Maybe we must go there." The woman with purple hair said.
"That won't be necessary, Commander Violet." The Pokémon Hunter J spoke. "We have many of our men working in different regions, and I'll destroy anyone who gets in our way, only thus will the Council of Pokémon Hunters remain."
*ENDS*
So, this is the Council of Pokémon Hunters and to make things worse there are other Pokémon Hunters across the regions in the Pokémon World. Apparently despite Caleb managing to beat four Pokémon Hunters, there are more of them doing their mean business. And speaking of the Pokémon Hunter J she walked towards another where she saw statues from captured Pokémon.
The Pokémon turned into statues were a nine-tailed fox called Ninetales, a minor version of Magmar called Magby, a four-legged Pokémon based from the mud fish and the axolotl called Swampert, a Pokémon with a horn in the head inspired from the mythical creature Baí Zé called Absol and for the last a bear cub called Teddiursa who had tears in the eyes, clearly that poor Pokémon was separated from his trainer before being taken by a cruel and remorseless Pokémon Hunter.
Even if both children started the beginning of their journey together, there will be more dangers ahead.
