I do not own The Loud House or Pokemon.
(Twelve Sixteen Franklin Ave - The Loud House - Royal Woods)
(Sunday Afternoon)
Hours have passed since Lincoln Loud with the permission of his parents was going to become a Pokemon trainer in Kanto, an Island region off the coast of Japan. To say he was excited would be the understatement of the century, since he feels this new passion project of his might be able to Bear some fruit so to speak.
Meanwhile, unknown to him his sisters were currently having a Loud sister only family meeting in Leni's bedroom. And of course the subject of the meeting was none other than their little / older brother Lincoln. They even included Lori, who's away at Fairway University through video chat.
"So Lincoln is up to something and you guys want to know what it is?"inquired Lori, after she heard everything from her sister's regarding their grandfather Leonard's weird behavior.
"Yes. Father unit destroyed my listening device, and mother unit covered up the ventilation that led to their room so that we couldn't hear what was going on in that bedroom. It's unusual for our parents to be the secretive, let alone Gramps. So whatever is the subject is concerning Lincoln, I can safely conclude that it's top secret."said Lisa, as that is what her analysis has concluded.
"I say we going to Lincoln's bedroom and force him to tell us what he's up to!"shouted Lola, feeling like using violence would be the most obvious solution.
"I don't think that's a good idea with Mom and Dad being around, dude."said Luna, knowing that Lincoln could immediately call their parents to come to his rescue if they tried anything violent.
"Ahh! I guess that's true!"said Lola, admitting that her usual tactics wouldn't work with mom and dad being around.
"So what should we do?"inquired Lynn, wanting to know what their next move is going to be.
"Why you guys care what Lincoln is doing?"inquired Lori, getting the attention of the rest of her sisters.
"Well... it's unusual for Lincoln to be this secretive. I mean, no offense, but he's pretty bad at keeping secrets regarding him."said Leni, knowing that her little brother wasn't the best when it came to secrets that revolves around him.
"Yeah! I mean there's hardly a secret if it's that's not in comedy Fort Knox."said Luan, who has most of Lincoln's embarrassing moments recorded on video.
"That's true, but maybe Lincoln is just trying something new so that he can feel better of losing that Michigan magic competition or whatever it's called. I mean literally, it's not like he's bothering any of you."said Lori, something the rest of her sisters had to admit was true.
"True... but it still bothers me that Lincoln gets to do something with Gramps, and we're not included!"argue Lana, with the rest of the sisters in the room agreeing.
"Hmm... I guess that's true. We just got Gramps back and it's not fair that he's doing something special for Lincoln and not us, but I'm sure he has his reasons."said Lori, who wouldn't lie and admit she wasn't a little jealous.
While she has been having fun at University, she has missed spending almost all day with her siblings and being involved and their wacky antics. But she has learned to cope with that by keeping regular tabs on her siblings and what they're up to.
"Dudes, what do you think Lincoln is doing?"inquired Luna, getting the attention of the rest of the loud sisters, as they noticed that Luna was looking out the door, towards Lincoln's bedroom.
"What do you mean?"inquired Lynn, wanting to know what her older sister was talking about.
"Little dude is literally packing up a duffel bag right now."said Luna, noticing that Lincoln appeared to be putting clothes and other essential items into a duffel bag.
"I don't know... It's not like we can fork him to tell us what he's up to. Hahahahahahaha, get it?"said Luan, causing the rest of her sisters to groan as that pun was terrible.
"But seriously, dude. It looks like Lincoln's packing for a trip."said Luna, who knew her little brother will enough to know that he only packed things up when he's going somewhere.
"Well we have school tomorrow, so it's not like he's going anywhere."pointed out Lucy, who appeared out of nowhere and scared everyone, including Lori even though she was nowhere near Lucy.
"Lucy, please stop doing that."said Lori, who swears that her little sister is when they going to give her a heart attack.
"Sorry, but my point still stands."stated Lucy firmly.
"She's right."agreed Lola."We have school tomorrow, and I doubt Lincoln is going to miss school."
"She's right. As a home monitor, I can't let Lincoln skip school or anything else, since that would ruin my reputation."said Lynn, who knew it wasn't her best interest to keep Lincoln at school.
"Well what is he doing now?"inquired Leni, wanting to know what her little brother was doing right now.
"He's pulling out his laptop and looks like he's dialing some numbers. I think he's going to have a conversation with his friends."said Luna, before she noticed that Lincoln noticed her and he quickly.
"Dang it!"said Luna, realizing that Lincoln noticed her spying on him.
"I think he's calling his friends. That's not unusual."said Leni, as Lincoln talks to his friends all the time during the weekend.
"But the duffle bag thing is still suspicious."argued Lola, something her second oldest sister could argue against.
"What's he planning?"wondered Lucy, before she noticed that her sisters were looking at her.
"What?"inquired the goth girl.
"You do like going into vents."said Lynn, making her roommate know where she is going with this.
"Oh no!"quickly argued Lucy, realizing that her sisters wanted her to go into the vents to spy on Lincoln.
"Come on, you're the only one who likes tight cramped spaces."said Lana, knowing that Lucy was the right person for this job.
"But Mom and Dad will get mad at me if they catch me in the vents."said Lucy, who was under strict instructions not to go into the vents.
"Don't worry, Lucy. We won't tell anyone."said Lola of all people.
"That is not very reassuring coming from you."said Lucy, since Lola was a notorious tattletale.
"Come on, Luc."said Luna, trying to pressure Lucy into agree.
"I'll sneak up to his door and listen. I'm not going into the vets. Is is that a fair compromise?"said Lucy, causing her sisters to huddle up and debate with one another.
"That's fine."said Lori, making Lucy feel better as she left the bedroom, to go sneak towards Lincoln's bedroom and listen in on his conversation with his friends.

(Lincoln Loud's bedroom)
(Sunday Afternoon)
"So yeah... I'll be out of Royal Woods for a couple of weeks."said Lincoln to his friend group which consisted of Clyde McBride, Stella Zhau, Rusty Spokes, Zach Gurdle, Liam Honeycutt, and Ronnie Anne Santiago.
"So where are you going?"inquired Clyde, wanting to know where his best friend was going.
"I'm... I'm going to meet up with an old friend of my grandfather, Leonard Loud."said Lincoln, who knew he couldn't tell his friends about the pokémon business as he wasn't a full-fledged Pokemon trainer yet.
And he didn't want to risk being banned from being a Pokemon trainer by the Pokemon League by revealing information he was not allowed to reveal just yet.
"Who's this old friend?"inquired Stella, wanting to know who this old friend was.
"He's a professor who specializes in Flora and Fauna."said Lincoln, who was technically telling the truth, even though these weren't your run of the mill animals that professor Oak studied.
"So he's some kind of professor? That honestly sounds like something your sister Lisa would be interested in rather than you."pointed out Ronnie Anne.
"Yeah, but I feel like a change of pace is necessary."said Lincoln, causing his friends to win since they knew how badly he's been feeling ever since he lost that magic competition really badly.
"Dude, are you sure going to be okay? I mean, going somewhere far away is a big change of pace considering what you've been through."said Rusty, wondering if Lincoln was going to be okay.
"Yeah...New environment, especially after losing that competition must not be easy."added Zach to what Rusty said.
"Guys, I'm fine. I just need a new challenge to help me figure out what I want to do."said Lincoln, who knew that his friends worried for him but he was going to be okay.
Especially since he was given the chance to go to a new land to train creatures that can breathe fire and all that!
"Well, as long as you're feeling up to it. Just promise you'll be in regular contact."send Clyde, who knew that their friend group is not function well without Lincoln.
"Don't worry. And if all goes well I have a little surprise for all of you when I'm settled in."said Lincoln, getting the attention of his friends.
"And this surprise would be?"inquired Liam, making Lincoln chuckle.
"It wouldn't be much of a surprise if I spilled the beans now. Anyway, Ronnie Anne, all you need to know is that this surprise might include your friend Sid."said Lincoln, confusing Ronnie Anne.
"How does this include Sid?"inquired Ronnie Anne, eyebrow raised.
"Nah-uh, no spoilers until I'm settled in."said Lincoln, making Ronnie Anne roll her eyes.
"I'm sure th8# surprise isn't that big of a deal."said Ronnie Anne, making Lincoln roll his eyes.
'If only you had any idea how big the surprise will be.' thought Lincoln, who can only imagine how surprised his friends will be when they learn about Pokemon, and get the chance to be pokémon trainers like him!
"So when are you leaving?"inquired Stella, wanting to know when Lincoln will be leaving.
"Tomorrow."responded the white haired middle child of the Loud family.
"But we have school tomorrow!"stated Clyde."Lincoln, you cannot be absent from school without a good excuse."
This made Lincoln, remembering that Clyde had a perfect attendance record, so he can understand why he would be worried for his best friend not attending school.
"My Grandpa already told me he got all the necessary documents for me to be excused from school. So you don't have to worry, Clyde."said Lincoln, knowing that the Pokemon League had it covered.
"Well... as long as you continue your studies."said Clyde, who did not want to go to high school without Lincoln as he worried he could become a litter bug and a delinquent...?
"Well we're definitely going to miss you at school, partner."said Liam, knowing he would miss Lincoln.
"Yeah, our friend won't be the same until you come back."said Rusty, adding his two cents.
"You better get us some souvenirs from wherever you're going."said Stella, as that's the least Lincoln could do for dropping this bombshell so last minute.
"And you better bring us some tasty food from that place as well."said Ronnie Anne, making Lincoln roll his eyes.
"Don't worry. Once I'm settled in, I'm going to see if I can get you guys something you will never expect."said Lincoln, referring to the chance to be coming pokémon trainers.
This made Lincoln's friends curious as they wondered what Lincoln was doing and why he was hiding his big surprise. Little did they know that this surprise will affect them in more ways than one, weather in a good way or a bad way was up to them.
Meanwhile, Lucy had heard most of the conversation, that only hurt a bit of it from here and there thanks to the mahogany wood that Lincoln had installed in his door, to prevent his sisters from listening in.
"Where is leaning going with Gramps?"Lucy said to herself, before the door opened.
This knocked her off balance as she fell on her back, before she stood to see Lincoln staring down at her.
"I knew you were there the whole time."said Lincoln, since Lucy may be able to mask her presence, but she's not able to stop her breathing.
"What are you going to do with Gramps?"inquired Lucy, making Lincoln realize that she only heard bits and pieces of the conversation.
"That's for me to know and you guys to find out later."said Lincoln, before he closed his door.
Lucy looked at her brother with curious look, wondering what he was hiding and why he was trying so hard to hide it.
'I need to know what you're up to...' thought Lucy, who wanted to know what Lincoln was going to do.
And she had an idea on how to do it.
So she quickly headed to the others to tell her what she heard, and to see if they could come up with a plan besides her own plan to get Lincoln to spill the beans.
Lincoln on the other hand let out a heavy sigh, having realized that all that time feeling sorry for himself has left them tired since he didn't get a proper amount of sleep last night.
"Hmm... I think I'll sleep earlier today since I have a big day tomorrow."said Lincoln, before he began changing into his pajamas.
Once he put on his orange pajamas, Lincoln quickly made his way into bed and quickly fell asleep within moments, since his body was tired from all the time he felt sorry for himself and lack of sleep.
That day he had a very strange dream. Now normally Lincoln would have a dream where he was his favorite superhero Ace Savvy, but on this day he had a very different dream.
In the dream he was standing in a magnificent stadium with confetti and fireworks firing all around. Lincoln looked on as he watched crowds of people, including people he knew and were acquainted with cheering his name as some guy wearing a cape handed him a trophy. This confused Lincoln, especially along with the trophy he received a huge cash prize.
What really did confuse him was the six mysterious creatures that were standing in front of him as he was on a podium.
The first creature looks like some kind of little brown fox with rabbit like ears.
The second creature looks like a large bird of prey.
The third creature appear to be a very big snake.
The four creature looks like some kind of European dragon.
The fifth creature looks like it was carrying some kind of thing in its hand.
And the sixth and final creature reminded Lincoln of a dinosaur from prehistoric times.
For some reason Lincoln was not scared of these creatures. In fact he saw that piece being near these creatures, like they had been by his side through thick and thin, and he trusted them with their safety like he they trusted him with theirs.
Lincoln felt like with these creatures having his back, the sky's the limit so to speak!
Meanwhile, Lincoln in the real world with smiling as he continued to sleep, knowing that tomorrow he had a big day with heading to the airport to take him to Kanto!
Can you guess which Pokemon are going to make up Lincoln's main team?
I hope you get the answers right.
Anyway, next chapter will be Lincoln going off to the airport to take him to Kanto.
And will his friends be able to become Pokemon trainers later?
Only one way to find out!
That is all I had to say.
