Pokémon: The Kanto Journey!

Red/Blue/Green/Yellow/FireRed/LeafGreen. Other wise known as the first story of a series of epic adventures. The story that follows Red. However....what if everything you knew about the story was only a fraction of the truth? Have you ever wondered what happened to Red and Satoshi's fathers? Or why Blue ended up as an orphan? Have you ever wondered how Team Rocket came to be? Well in this Fanfiction, it will be a retelling of R/B/G/Y/Fr/Lg. Other plot elements from the Anime (Season1-Season2) will be included to complete the tale of Red, Blue, Leaf, Satoshi, Kenny and others as the dark secrets of Kanto will finally be revealed. So basically there is no counterparts, everything related to Kanto (anime, games, manga) will be mixed in together in someway or another. It was all fun and games, but Team Rocket was one gang you should've never messed with.

Rating: I guess I could say PG15. Death, Blood, Profanity(Minimum), and Sexual References(Mostly nosebleeds, nothing graphic at all.)

[Hey there guys, it's the author. I'm excited to share this story here as well! I've been working things out here and there, and I hope you guys like it! So here I go!]


Chapter 1
~~~~~~~One Year Into the Future
Red crawled out of the rumble. He was badly cut and bruised, and was panting heavily.
He barely managed to get out of there in time. That explosion was enormous. He turns to see the now destroyed and smoking building.

He survived that…

He heard footsteps. He froze and knew who it was immediately.

That’s when he heard the horrible screams of his friends. He wondered if they were being tortured, or something worse.

The footsteps stopped. The screams of his friends still didn't end. He hears a small click and he looks up to see a revolver pointed at his forehead.

"Get the hell up."

Red could barely do so. He wobbled and eventually stood. He stared into his eyes.

The man chuckled a bit and slapped Red with the gun. Red only turned his head and coughs out blood. He looked back at the man.

"You knew it from the beginning. You mess with Team Rocket, and you die. Simple as that. Now take a look at all your friends, Red. Where did you lead them?"

Red looked around the forest.

He sees Leaf was being held on her knees by gunpoint. Her hat was nowhere to be seen, and she was badly beaten.

He then sees Blue. He was lying on his stomach, his eyes wide open, not breathing. Blood was dripping down from his forehead.

Kenny was laying on the floor a few feet away from him, he couldn’t tell what was wrong with Kenny.

Red closed his fist.

"Red, it was all fun and games at first. Fun and games. Then reality sinks in, and it's a drag isn't it?"

Red looked at him with that same cold stare that he would give at those Rocket scum. Red saw him raise the gun.

"Any last words?"

Red said nothing.

He laughed. "I guess you'll die saying nothing at all. Nice making business with you Red. See you in Hell."




------One Year Earlier------





Chapter 1! Opening: Dreams Await! Getting the Identification!

~~~~~~~~Red
"Hello! Welcome to the Official Pokémon Registration Center! What might your name be?" said the nice lady in the reception place.

Red smiles and almost shouts his name out load. The woman stares at Red and blinks twice. His mother smiles, embarrassed that his son would yell at the poor now shocked lady.

"Sorry, I'm just so excited!" Red apologizes.

"It's ok, I've had worse kids who were excited as well. So you are Red, right? From Pallet Town correct?"

Red nods his head quickly.

"Ok in just a moment you will get your official ID. If you may, please head to the waiting room next door."

Red smiles wider, knowing that his dream was about to come true.

Red is tall for his age, around 4’11. He’s an average boy with a great heart. He respects his surroundings, and acts quickly too. He has short, messy brown hair and brown eyes that sometimes seem to shine red. He always wears a Pokeball themed cap that he got from retailers. He also wears a red and black sweater with no hood and blue jeans with red, black, and white sneakers.

Red had finally become 13 years old, which is the new required age to get an official Pokémon Trainer ID. Now that he is old enough, he can finally get his first Pokémon ever!

The excitement was filling his heart. He thought about entering Prof. Oak's lab already and getting introduced to the starter Pokémon that he's always seen other kids on TV gain from him.

Red and his mother, Delia entered the room where other kids were waiting as well. Red found a seat and sits down, still smiling widely.

"Red, calm down, you'll have a heart attack or something," his mother said with a worried look on her face.

"Don't worry Mom, not even a heart attack will stop me from getting my ID today. I can't wait to go on a journey already Mom! Today's the day, I Red, will become a trainer of skill and hard work!"




~~~~~~~~~Leaf
Leaf entered the OPRC. She grins. Finally, it’s time.

"Leaf, wait up!" her father cries hurrying after his daughter.

"Come on Dad! Why are you slower than usual? Can't you see I'm getting my ID?"

Leaf runs to the receptionist.

"Hi, I'm Leaf from Pallet Town, I'm here for my ID," Leaf said as she slams her hands on the table and leans forward onto the poor woman's face, centimeters apart from each other.

The woman frowns and looks at her father.

"Leaf, please, you’re acting like a child! And didn't you say earlier that you were to not be treated like a kid anymore?" Leaf's father said to her.

"Dad, pleeeeeaaase! I am no longer a kid. I am now going to be an official trainer now. So how long is the wait, I have to go talk to my other friends from Trainer School that I'm getting an ID."

Leaf is a girly girl who loves to get cute stuff. She around 4’7 in height, and energetic. She has long brown hair that falls down to her waist area. She has bluish eyes and always has green painted fingernails. Today in particular, she was wearing a pink shirt with blue jeans that were folded up to her shins. She wore tanned sandals and a green knitted cap on her head. Not usually what she wears, but all in all, it’s fashion to her.

The woman points to a door that said waiting 'Waiting Room.' Leaf frowns.

"Really?! I do have to wait forever don't I?! Ugh! Whatever, I'm sooo going not to enjoy this. Daddy, let's go wait in the room. Let's see if any of my friends are in there."

Leaf sets off to the room and her father hurriedly follows.

Leaf enters and examines the room. Great, there was no one she knew, except for her boring neighbor, Red. He’s not boring at all… She had a crush on him, but that’s all. Nothing special.

The boy turns and waves at her. Leaf waves back, even though she would rather not.

She found a seat and sat. She takes out her PokeGear and dials her friend, Marie. Soon she was engaged in full blown conversation. Her father sits next to her and gives a big sigh of relief.




~~~~~~~~~~Blue
Blue casually enters the building. He looks around and smirks. Of course no one is here, he thought. He’s the first one here, as always. He strolls to the cute receptionist.

"Hi, are you here for you ID?"

Blue nods and said, "Of course I am. First one here of course too."

The woman shakes her head. "You’re the twentieth here today actually," she said.

Blue's eyes widen. "What?!? What do you mean?! I'm not first?!"

The woman smiles awkwardly and asks for his name.

This irritated Blue even more. "I’m Blue from Pallet! You know, the grandson of a famous Professor?! Ugh, whatever, Let me see who else made it before me, I'll challenge 'em all tomorrow mornin'!"

Blue Oak is a very cocky guy. He is tall too, 5’2. He is one of those guys that would go out with a bunch of girls, only to break their heart and to move on. He has short and spiked up hair that would either be brown or orange depending on the sun. He has hazel eyes that makes a lot of girls happy. He’s wearing a long sleeved purple shirt with blue jeans. Alongside that, he’s wearing a pair of caramel colored boots with two fat black stripes going horizontally across his boots. He’s also wearing a green and yellow orb that was hanging from his necklace. Typical clothing that Blue would wear.

And with that Blue storms in the waiting room.

He sees no one that he knows. Wait....!

Oh no. Red.

They've been rivals ever since Blue can remember, and with good reason. He doesn't like Red at all. He’s nothing but a wannabe hero and crap, it’s annoying. Not to mention of that one day…

Blue's face turns red with anger at the sight of Red. How could he, Blue, have lost to someone as stupid as Red?! He enters the room and decides to hide his anger; he doesn't want to look like a drama queen.

"Well, well, well. If it isn’t Red."

The other boy looks up. He stands when he realizes it was Blue.

"Blue!" he exclaims closing his fists.

"Hey, Red's mom. I just came to see why you came so late today."

Red growls in anger.

"I didn't see you, so maybe you came late yourself," Red states and he locks eyes with Blue.

"I happen to be at the restroom you know. Well, I'll leave you now. I gotta go check on my ID. Smell ya later!"

Blue exits the room.

Leaf on the other hand was staring at Blue as he left. She has the biggest crush on the planet on Blue.

"Hello? Leaf? You still there? Hello?" Marie said through the PokeGear as Leaf was lost on thought.




~~~~~~~~~Kenny
Kenny goes inside the building. He knew that it was now time to become a Pokémon Trainer.

"Kenny, I'll be right back to pick you up in five minutes. Have fun in there, and enjoy every moment of it!" Kenny's brother, Aiden said.

Kenny nods as he sees his brother fly off with his Charizard back to Pallet Town.

Kenny turns back to the building.

Kenny was finally here. This is where he will start of his Pokémon Journey. Kenny has read all about this place. This is the Official Pokémon Registration Center that is located at the city known as Saffron. Of course, Kenny has also read about the city's history, but he would rather not think about that at this moment.

Kenny is rather short than most boys, that being 4’8. He is also very intellegent. He has light chocolate skin, light brown eyes and black eye glasses. Kenny also has tan hair that is made up of dreadlocks, but usually covers most of his head with a blue beanie. He always wears the same thing, a blue sweater with a white hood. He never zips it up, which reveals a white shirt with a black Pokeball logo in the middle of it. He wears grey pants with blue, white, and black shoes.

Kenny walks up the nice lady at the reception table.

"Hi, I am Kenny from Pallet Town. May I get my identification card please?"

The nice lady nods her head and writes Kenny's name to on the paper and tells him to wait at the waiting room. Kenny smiles and thanks the lady.

He enters the room and sees his neighbors Red and Leaf. He sits next to Red.

"Hello, Red!" he said. Red waves at him.

"Are you excited?" Kenny questions.

Red nods his head.

"I can't wait to get my first Pokémon. It feels like a dream. Who are you thinking of getting for your starter?" Red said examining Kenny's face.

Red and Kenny really don't talk as much, but Red knows that Kenny is really smart. Maybe listening to his ideas would gain him access to become a better trainer. And to be smarter and better than Blue.

Kenny closes his eyes. "I will choose a Charmander. Not because of specific strategy, but because I want to follow my brother's footsteps. He has a very smart and strong Charizard."

Red nods his head, but he secretly wished for a more intellectual answer.




~~~~~~~It's Time
"May the following people please report to the front desk: Red, Blue, Leaf, and Kenny from Pallet Town."

Kenny and Red look at each and smile widely.

"I got to go girl, I'll call you later!" Leaf said as she got up.

Red and Kenny dash to the door just as Leaf does as well. They both stop to see who will go through the door first.

"Hmph!" said Leaf as she flips her hair and walks out the door with her nose up in the air.

Kenny adjusts his glasses and walks out the door. Red follows nearby.

Red sees Blue already standing at the reception table with a smirk on his face. Red frowns.

"Better late than never, right Red?" Blue said looking at him.

Red growls and grinds his teeth.

Leaf jumps in front of Blue and yells out, "Hi Blue!"

The shocked Blue blushes as he looks down at her pretty face.

Blue always finds himself looking at her, even though he was pretty sure that he does not like her. Well yeah, Leaf was pretty hot, but if even if he did like her that way, she would never like him back. He knows that Leaf only goes for smart, kind guys.

"Oh, what's up Leaf?"

Leaf's face turns to a bright pink.

"Right now you."

Blue's blush worsens. Red gives a small snicker and hides his face with his hands, and Blue notices which makes him mad.

Kenny just sighs. He knows that Blue and Red always fight and he knows that their fights would finally be settled by a Pokémon battle. Their arguing is getting annoying as it is.

"So it's time to finally get your IDs," the receptionist said.

The children all turn their heads at the same time at the lady.

The woman sets down the IDs on the table.
Red smiles and takes his card.

Kenny grabs his card and begins to examine it.

Leaf takes her as well and holds two fingers to the lady and winks at her.

Blue smirks and takes his card and stuffs it in his pocket.
"You are all now registered on the Pokémon Records. Don't lose your ID, you need them to fight against gym leaders and to enter the Pokémon League. You are all now official Pokémon trainers!"

Red and Leaf cheer. Kenny just smiles to himself. Blue shrugs and smirks.

"Don't forget to get your starters at Prof. Oak's laboratory. Good luck on your journey!"


~~~~~~The Heroes Meet
Red exits the OPRC. He smiles and looks at his ID. Finally, it's time to shine, to be better than anyone else in the whole region. If he could even make it to the top.

Leaf suddenly jumps on Red to give him a hug.

"Red, we did it! After all that hard work from Trainer School, we are finally trainers!"

Red blushes and smiles at her. Blue walks up to them.

"You know Red, now that we're official trainers, I can't wait to kick your butt!" Blue said holding a fist to his chest. Red growls at Blue.

"Must you two always be fighting?" Kenny questions adjusting his glasses.

"You shut up Kenny! You won't even make it three feet before getting attacked by a wild Pokémon."

"You dare say such words to me?!"

"I do. Guys, let's all just face it, I'll end up champion by the end of the year," Blue states lifting his hand up in a cockish manner.

"Oh yeah? I bet you won't!" Red exclaims.

"Is that a bet?" Blue smirks.

"You bet it is!"

Blue smiles wider. "Fine. Here's the deal, whoever reaches Indigo Plateau first will win the bet. Of course you have to be part of Pallet Town to comply. So here's the deal. $200,000 to whomever reaches the Pokémon League, AND becomes champion. So it's a race, you fall behind, you stay behind."

Kenny looks uncertain.

Red growls.

Leaf just brushes her hair.

"Well, deal or no deal?"

Red smirks. "You're on! I'll beat you any day!" He sets his fist to the center of their circle.

"I suppose I shall try my best..." Kenny states as he sets his hand on top of Red's fist.

"Ugh, I am only doing this cause this is exciting."

Leaf slams her hand on top of Kenny's Blue sets his hand on Leaf's.

"Alright then. May the best Pokémon Trainer win. Let’s see who’s the best trainer in Kanto."

They all lift they're arms up.

Red gives a cold stare at Blue. "You won't win me Blue."

"Whatever Red, we all know how this is going to end, smell ya later!" He walks away.

Leaf looks at Blue walk off. "I'm off, goodbye Red! See ya around Kenny!" Leaf runs of to her awaiting father.

Kenny and Red were left alone. Red looks at Kenny. "Good luck Kenny."

"As to you too Red. I will see you around." He walks off into the city.

Red sighs. His mother comes up to him. "Ready to go back to Pallet?" she asks. Red smiles and nods. The two of them then walk off deep into the city of Saffron.

If anyone is wondering who the main characters will be here's my list (and I guess it's kinda spoilery, but does not reveal any plot points just what the characters will go through. So here it is:

Red Tajiri- He is from Pallet Town and lives with his Mother. He's always striving to do his best; he's courageous, and aiming to defeat Blue. He gets along with Leaf and Kenny a lot more than with Blue. He's one of the many main characters throughout the story. His main weakness is knowing that Blue is one step ahead of him. Will he have what it takes to be the Pokémon Champion?

Blue Gareth Oak- He is also from Pallet Town and is Red's rival throughout the Pokémon Journey. He only wants to win Red, and sometimes he might do it in cruel ways, but has a good heart. He also might have feelings for Leaf, but refuses to show any true emotions for her. Blue is a selfish, cocky guy and won't let anyone stop his way to become the top.

Leaf Melody Green- She's from Pallet Town as well and has a major crush on Blue. She's the girly girl type, but she's also serious when she has to be. She has many secrets within her, and throughout the story she will try to help Kenny get his crush, Sid. She's smart and only wants to become the top in order to win Blue's heart....and to become the cutest girl in Kanto.

Kenny Monteleone- Originally coming from Vermillion City, Kenny is an intelligent, shy kid. He's gay, and that doesn't let him down. He has a crush on Sid who's new in the Kanto Region. He only wants to become Champion to make Sid interested in him. His main rival is Lacy from the Unova Region who's also after Sid. With the help of Leaf, will Kenny win Sid's heart? Or will Lacy beat him?

Sid Charleston - He's from the Hoenn Region that moved to Pallet Town. He's like Brock, he's obsessed with girls and clumsy. He decides to go on a Pokémon Journey with Kenny, much to Kenny's excitement. He's oblivious to Kenny's feelings, and he might just be to his own feelings towards Kenny as well. His motivation to be the top is to win all the girls attention. What will happen between him and Kenny?

Satoshi Ash Ketchum- He is from Pallet Town as well, and at first was skeptical with his starter, Pikachu, but now his Pokémon has relied on Satoshi and Pikachu became his traveling companion. Along the way he meets Misty and Brock. Satoshi has a slight crush on Misty, and sometimes gets jealous over that. Can Satoshi make it to the top?

Misty Kasumi Lillis- She's the Gym Leader in Cerulean City. She's a tomboy, and is never seen with a good attitude. One day while fishing, Satoshi took her bike and found it ruined. She dedicated herself to follow Satoshi until he pays her bike back. Along the way, she's realized that Satoshi is special to her, and not just as a friend. She will help Satoshi become Champion. Will Satoshi ever see her as more than a friend?

Brock Takeshi Stuart- The Gym Leader of Pewter City. He's a ladies man, or at least tries. He took interest in Satoshi's way of handling Pikachu, and decides to travel with him and with Misty. He's very wise, and is a good chef. He aims to be the best breeder around, and maybe along the way, he could find the perfect girl of his dreams. If he could stop making a fool of himself.

Lacy Bayle- She's that one girl that wants to be up on all the guys. She only wants fame, and cute boys. When she first saw Sid, she knew she had to get him, only there's one problem: Kenny. She knows his secret, and uses that as an advantage. She's always trying to make herself look desirable, and only agreed to go to the Pokémon League to beat Kenny and get her precious Sid. Will this conceded girl win her way?

Paul Furushima- He moved to the Sinnoh Region a long time ago, but now he's back. He serves as Satoshi's main rival. He's very quiet and when he does talk, he's cruel to Satoshi. He only cares about becoming Champion and getting the best Pokémon around. He has a dark secret too, but all will be revealed in good time.

Dominick Gambrel- Kenny's ex-boyfriend that is still in love with Kenny. Throughout the journey, he will try to get Kenny back (with the help of Lacy), but the only problem he has is Sid, who Dom considerers as his rival. When it comes to Kenny, he is willing to do anything to make sure what belongs to his is safe... even doing the unkindly acts. Dom also has a secret that will only be revealed in time.

Jaune "Yellow" Forrest- The shy girl who usually doesn't want to battle. She's brave when Pokémon are in trouble. She travels with her ChuChu, and at times she just doesn't care about collecting badges. Her inner problem is whether she should become a Champion or not. She has a crush on Red, but refuses to say anything on it, besides who would date someone like her? Throughout the story, something inside of her is building, an unseen power that could prove dangerous to her and others.

I know the first few chapters will be all happy and unicorns but that's how the story, you're just a kid going along to become the best Pokémon Trainer there is but then you meet the bad guys. So yeah I hope you guys like it!

First off, don't imply unicorns are happy. They can be grumpy mother****ers when they want to be. >:|

Now as for your story...

The very opening definitely catches my attention, and I like your decision to focus on a group of four protagonists.

That said, there are some pretty significant problems.

The first is your grasp of the English language, while still not the worst I've ever seen in a fanfic, is rather unsound. There are many, many bits of typos and awkward word choice and weird-sounding dialogue that bring this fic down.

Additionally, the decision to describe your characters in little blocks is a bit awkward and tell-not-show-y.

Plus you contradict yourself. You say Leaf has a crush on Red and then show her being awkward with Blue and it's confusing.

Finally, reading your character notes, I see you're intermingling characters and bits of canon from the anime. While that is by no means a bad thing in and of itself, (I'm planning on doing so for a couple future fics) the way you're doing it is also contradictory and confusing. Like... What the hell is Ash doing here when we already have his counterpart Red? Why did Paul leave Sinnoh? Additionally I worry you're gonna overwhelm yourself with too many major characters.

tl;dr I'd suggest honing your basic English and storytelling skills before taking this further. Find someone to go over your story with you, it helps. But don't give up.

Hey there, I've decided to upload the next chapter. I did some proofreading (although hopefully it's not as bad as my first chapter). Hopefully it's not too bad -_- I think this will set up some stuff I have in plan, especially the end.


Chapter 2! Pallet Town: Prep for the Start!
~~~~~~~Red
Now at home, Red was pacing around his house, anxious that he is finally an official Pokémon Trainer. Tomorrow morning, he will get his very first Pokémon from Prof. Oak. He just can’t stand still. He was looking forward to this ever since he first started Trainer School.

Delia on the other hand was sitting at the table watching her son. She didn't know what to feel. She’s glad to see her son so happy, but she couldn't shake the fact that her own son will be leaving her. She watched hopelessly as her son paced around the living room.

Red was thinking a lot. Charizard would be preferable; it would help him fly off whenever he needed him. Blastoise can surf him around the sea at will. Venusaur can make some delicious berry juice according to Kenny and would be useful if he runs out of money.

"Mom, how much money am I getting?" Red asks.

"$3000. That should be enough don't you think?"

Red nods his head and continues to pace.

"Now Red, come here," Delia said to her son who went to her.

"Tomorrow is a really big day for you. So I want you to know that I love you so much, it's unbearable. I will worry so much, so please don't forget to call me whenever you can. All boys leave home someday. It even said so on TV. The point is, be brave, be smart, and try to change your underwear once in a while."

Red blushes at her mother's last words. "Mom! I know to change my clothes!"

Delia laughs and hugs her son. "Oh Red, you wear the same thing every day! I love you Red. Be safe."

Red squeezes her mother with his arms. "I love you too."

Mime, Mime!


Red turns and sees Mimey caring a bag of fruits to them. Red smiles and takes an apple and bites it.

"See Mom, you still have Mimey here to protect you."

Delia looks at Mimey who smiles. Delia closes her eyes and smiles at Mimey.

Red suddenly remembers. "Mom, I have to get my potions off the PC. Can I?"

Delia looks at her son and nods her head. Red hurries off to his room upstairs.

Delia has never seen Red act so happy. Not since he found out about Grey.... She ignores the thought and walks over to the kitchen to see what else she can clean.




~~~~~~~~Leaf
Leaf was on her bed admiring her drawings that she drew of Blue. She likes this one particular drawing which she and Blue were kissing. She looks at it for a few seconds and sighs.

Blue will never be hers. Even if she did go out with Blue, what’s to say that he won’t break her heart? All the other girls like Blue too…

Hmph. They all want him. We all want Blue actually. Maybe Kenny might actually want Blue too. Or Red. He can keep Red though.
Leaf frowns. She looks out the window. Red was in his room doing something on his computer. She walks up to her window and stares at him.

“Red…”

She shakes her head and jumps on her bed. Leaf looks around her room.

“Wow, I have a lot of posters and plush dolls,” she said to herself.

Leaf grabs a Bulbasaur plush. Maybe she'll get this one. But it's so ugly. All the girls will make fun of her. Well, she can always do a makeover to it. She stares at if for a while. Why choose this one?

She throws it away and picks up a Charmander doll. This one looks fierce. It looks kinda cute, but it's orange. She tosses it away.

"If only Blue was a Pokémon, I’ll catch him and keep him...."

She picks up a Squirtle. Now this one is cute. It's so cuddly looking. Imagine with a Squirtle, she could swim everywhere she wants with it.

That's when Leaf decides. She smiles and runs downstairs with her Pokémon plush.

"Dad! I know what Pokémon I want now!"




~~~~~~~~~Blue

"Now, Blue, wait until tomorrow. Everyone else is getting their starters tomorrow," Professor Oak said to his grandson.

"I can't wait until tomorrow! I actually threw up because I was so anxious! I want my starter now!"

Oak sighs. "You can't. Not even if you are my own kin, I can't. Why don't you go see your items? You have to have enough things on your journey..."

Blue frowns. "My stuff is all in my PC. I transferred all the money to my ID. All I need is to carry are my Pokémon with me. That's all."

Oak shakes his head. "Your father should have really named you Green. Instead he goes on to name you the opposite of Delia's child."

Blue smirks. "He should have named me Gary instead, much simpler if you ask me. Instead that's my middle name, but I like my name. Blue is a much more of a professional name."

Oak sits on his chair. He is always so naïve and stubborn. Where did he go wrong as a parent?

Daisy walks in the room. "Hey, Gramps. Hey, Blue. I see you brought home your ID Blue."

Blue flashes his ID.

Daisy looks at it and laughs.

"What? They used our old pictures when we were 10 years old. Of course I look funny. Not as funny as Red's though."

Blue walks away and heads to his room where he throws himself to the bed. He stares at the ceiling.

Why are all the houses in Pallet the same model? His room could easily be mistaken for Red’s room. Well if there weren’t any posters and stuff.

He grabs his guitar and starts playing on it. He is very good with the guitar; he once played in front of everyone in Trainer School. Whenever he’s bored, Blue just comes home and plays on his guitar. He starts to play on a song that he made up, so far the only name he could think of is called “Pallet Town’s Theme.”

"Tomorrow, I get my starter. I hope Red chooses Bulbasaur so I can burn him with Charmander!"

Blue continues to play not noticing that his grandfather was watching him.

Oak shakes his head and continues walking. Why does Blue dislike Red so much?




~~~~~~~Kenny
Kenny was in his room getting his pack ready. He had put in his some potions, some paralyze heals, and antidotes inside. Also, he secretly stores in a Premier Ball. He had obtained this ball in a small contest that he won in school. He’s glad that he can finally use this on a Pokémon; the trick was, on who he was going to use this Pokeball on. Kenny wanted this Pokémon to be special.

He looks at his shelves filled with trophies of spelling bees and math quizzes. He opened the small little wooden door behind his trophies and takes out his seven Pokémon journals. He has been writing theme for a while, before he moved to Pallet Town. He sits on his bed and reads through all the problems that he had and all the thoughts that he used to have back then. It’s interesting to see how his writing improved.

Kenny stops reading and hides his journals though the secret door. He takes out a brand new purple journal. He’s been saving this one for the Journey across Kanto. It’s time to use it. He neatly places it in his now filled backpack.

Kenny looks out his window. He sees someone outside on the grass.

It was a boy. He’s chubby, but not overly fat. He’s also tall. He has short spiked up hair that is black in color. He’s hiding some of his hair with a red bandana that’s around his forehead. He’s wearing a brown shirt that has some red in it. Khaki shorts that was up to his knees, and his shoes are brown with red and white.

He’s cute.

Kenny smiles to himself and realizes that it was the new kid that moved to Pallet Town. Kenny forgot his name, but he thought he was pretty handsome. Although he knew that he would have no chance with this boy from Hoenn.

Everyone in Pallet knew that Kenny liked boys instead of girls except the new kid, but they didn't mind. They also knew that Kenny has the potential to become the next Pokémon Professor. Kenny does not wish to be a professor however. Kenny would much rather be with Pokémon as a Pokémon Ranger. But there was only one thing that was letting Kenny down. He was extremely shy. If Kenny is to complete his dream about becoming a Ranger, he must overcome this obstacle.

Kenny found himself staring at the new boy who was looking straight back at him.

They stared at each other for a while. Kenny was frozen in fear. The boy waves at Kenny.

Kenny suddenly starts to panic and almost falls out the window. He catches himself and then gave a big smile at the kid. Kenny waves as a big blush marks goes through his face and he closes the curtains.

Kenny sinks to the floor. Once again, Kenny has managed to look like an idiot. This tends to happen a lot.




~~~~~~Sid
Sid looks at the kid's house with confusion.

That was weird. Maybe he's the shy type. Oh well.

Sid walks inside his house. His mother greets him. Sid waves at her and just walks up to his room.

He had moved a weak earlier here to Kanto from Hoenn. He misses Littleroot Town, but he's glad to have moved here so he can start into a fresh beginning. He hasn't talked to anyone yet on the town, Sid was a little bit shy. He knows that some kid named Blue lives around here because he saw him around talking to some girl who kept calling his name yesterday. Although he only saw Saffron City for a little bit, he has come to say that Saffron might be his favorite location in Kanto, but there is still a lot more to explore.

He enters his room and throws himself at his own bed. He stares at the ceiling and starts to imagine being back in Littleroot Town talking to May. He had this huge crush on her, but she never made a move on him. At least they were good friends.

He sighs.

What if he never finds someone to hang around with?

This thought sent chills down on him. He has to find someone to talk to, maybe this Blue dude. Maybe he could show Sid around or something, he can’t start off without a partner.

He checks his watch. It's 9:00pm. What should he do now? He turns on the TV.

"And now we take you to the current Elite Four Champion, Lance!" said a smoking hot reporter on the TV. The camera zooms a little and reveals a man with red hair and with cape.

"So to all rookies, trainers, and other folks who wish to enter the Pokémon League, you must gain all eight badges from Kanto or Johto. Until then, I will remain here, in The Indigo Plateau. I will be waiting."

"That was Lance of the Elite Four. None have been able to defeat him to date. Except two years ago when the current Champion, Aiden, who humiliated Lance with his mysterious Ice Type Pokémon that he refuses to show. Will any one be able to beat the Pokémon League Champion? Or will Aiden remain Champion for another year?"

Sid suddenly had a thought.

What if he wins the Pokémon League? He could become the Champion of the Kanto Region! Then he would be prized by all the girls in all the regions!

He smiles. So it's decided. Sid will try to become Champion. And no one will stop him. No one.




~~~~~~ Somewhere in Kanto
Jesses and James came running inside the Boss' headquarters.

They kneel before a shadowy figure sitting in a chair slowly petting a Persian. A Meowth stood beside the person.

"Sir! We have managed to steal four Pokémon today!" Jesses said without daring to look up at her boss' eyes.

"Just four?" the Boss said.

The Boss stands.

"I will not stand this stupidity any longer. Just today, Butch and Cassidy have stolen 27! Do you really think I will accept you goof balls? You both disgust me. But at least you brought me something. Meowth," the Boss said.

"Y-Yes sir?" the Pokémon stutters.

"From now on, you will help these two on missions. I trust that you won't fail me. Right?"

Meowth looked at the stupid idiots, and he slowly nodded his head yes.

"Good, now don't fail me. We will succeed."

The three of them exit his office. The Boss looks at a picture that was on his desk. A boy with red hair stood in that picture. The Boss says nothing and continues on to do what he does best.

Arianna enters the room. “We need to talk.”

The Boss grunts in annoyance.

“Last thing I need is for you to come and talk about him. I already told you what’s going to happen, and I’m taking procedures to make sure he doesn’t come back in Kanto. Other than that, leave.”

Arianna shakes her head and leaves her husband alone in his office.

So there it is! Any other chapter after this I will have someone help me proofread from this site. Other than that I'm done for today...

Hey there everyone, I decided to post the next chapter of my Fanfic, I hope you guys will enjoy.

Chapter 3: The Starters of Kanto Region!
~~~~~~~ Leaf
She opens her eyes. Could it be? She looks around for her window. It was now morning.

Sunshine. That means…

A wide smile appears on her face and she immediately goes to her closet.

She changes into her red short skirt, and a light blue shirt. She steps into her fabulous shoes and looks for a perfect hat to wear. Ah! The premier hat! She puts it on her head. She glances back at the closet and sees her black dress that she used to wear when she was small. She walks up to it.

She touches the fabric and sighs.

“Won’t go back to you ever again.”

She closes her closet. She grabs her yellow purse and runs down the stairs.

Her father was there waiting. He was reading the newspaper, the headline read: Team Rocket Strikes Again!

“Dad, I’m leaving, bye!” Leaf shouts.

"Make sure to show me your Pokémon when you get it!" he manages to exclaim as he sees his daughter run off to Prof. Oak's lab.

"Kids. They grow up way too fast."

As Leaf ran, she couldn't stop thinking about her beautiful Bulbasaur. In the end, she decided that Bulbasaur is the Pokémon she wanted. Plants are her specialty anyway, she controls most of the garden anyway.

No matter how ugly it looks like a Bulbasaur will lead her to her goal. She wants to be a Beauty Trainer, and some say that Beauty Trainers make it to train with the Pokémon Gym Leader, Erika, Leaf’s inspiration. She has seen Erika in person, and she knows that Erika is very pretty. The official trainers that stay in her gym are all females, and they are beautiful too. She'll fit right in, and with a Grass Type, Erika is sure to like Leaf.

She runs down the road and reaches the staircase that goes up a small hill where his lab awaited. She can see the building, which was a small one, and she’s only seen the outside of it until now. Up ahead is also a wind turbine in the back of laboratory. She hurries up the stairs.

“Maybe, just maybe, Erika will take interest in me. To impress Erika, I have decided to get a Bulbasaur!”

She stops in front of the door. She can hear kids already , they’re excited voices coming from inside.

She lets out a deep breath. “Here I go!”

Leaf enters the building.

His laboratory isn't as big as she had imagined. The room just had rows of bookshelves and a table with a computer at the end of room. There were doors that probably lead to somewhere else like the backyard of his lab. It was rather small, but she didn't care.

Some kids were in a line waiting to get their starters. Leaf hurries to the line where she could barely maintain her excitement. It felt like forever for Leaf to finally reach the Professor.

"Hello Leaf! Glad you can make it!" Oak says as he waves at her.

Leaf smiles at him and said, "Hello Professor! Like, where is Blue? Did he get his Pokémon already?"

Oak shook his head. "I let him stay over the house for a few minutes due to bad behavior. Now Leaf, I have three Pokémon in this table: Charmander a Fire Type, Squirtle a Water Type, and Bulbasaur a Grass Type. Which one would you like to have on your journey?"

Leaf shouts out her choice and startles a few kids behind her.

The Professor just smiles and hands her a Pokeball. He then takes out another Pokeball and replaces the one he gave to Leaf.

Leaf stares at it and starts to jump up in down chanting her Pokémon's name.

"Don't forget your Pokedex." The Professor gives her a pink Pokedex.

Leaf examines it. It was a flip open device that had a small camera on it.

“It’s incomplete, and it’s the duty of every Pokémon Trainer to complete it. Now I’ve taken the liberty to upgrade it to the National Dex, so in case you see a Pokémon that is not from Kanto, don’t worry about it. The last time the Pokedex said it can’t read a Pokémon was about five generations ago, haha!”

Leaf hugs the Professor.

"Thank you, thank you, and thank you!" Leaf breaks her hug and runs out the door.

The Professor smiles and returns to hand out Pokémon.

She starts to cheer again. She presses the button white button from the center of the Pokeball and it opens. A red beam shoots to the floor. Leaf watches in amazement as her Bulbasaur came out, standing there staring at her.

Bulba?

"Hi Bulbasaur!" Leaf shouts and embraces it. Bulbasaur was a bit confused about what just happened but accepted the hug.

"I'm Leaf, your trainer. I was hoping you and I could travel as best friends."

Bulbasaur tilts her head to the side.

"Would you like that?" Leaf asks.

Bulbasaur looks deep into her official trainer. She looks friendly at the most.

Bulbasaur smiles.

Bulba! Saur!

"Eeeh! Oh my God, we are going to have so much fun Bulbasaur. You know what; I think I'll call you.... Bulba! You like that?"

Saur! Bulbasaur!

Leaf hugs it even tighter. She finally got her Pokémon. Now she can actually go out and start her Pokémon Journey around Kanto!

"There's someone you've got to meet Bulba. Come on, I'll take you there!"

Leaf carries her new Pokémon down the road to her house. On the way, she saw Blue's house who was looking down at her through a window. She waves at him and continues on.

Blue looked very angry. He thought about the unfairness of how Leaf got to be first than him. Scratch that, how anyone else got to be first than him. At least Red is still asleep.


~~~~~~Red and Blue
Blue continues to stare out at the passing kids. Kids who were happily getting their starters. Kids who were enjoying their lame *** Pokémon. Blue can easily beat them all. Being the grandson of a Professor really has its benefits. He’s worked with many Pokémon before so he wasn't too excited. Seeing all those kids run about makes him happy… that they are all rookies. He can so beat them at a battle. They all look so weak. Blue could hardly wait to see Red's face when he defeats him in a battle. Suddenly his PokeGear started to ring.

It was his Grandfather.

"S'up Gramps?" Blue said.

"Blue, I need you to come here and take care of the lab. I have to check on something. Will you please hand out the Starter Pokémon?"

Blue agrees and hangs up.

Great. Not only can he not get his starter, but he has to give away the starters. Can this day get any worse?



Red wakes up from his bed. Light surrounds his room.
It's time.

He changes into his light blue jeans, and puts on black undershirt. He then he puts on his red and white shirt. He then puts on his signature red hat that looks like a Pokeball. He steps into his shoes and sets his backpack on his back.

He looks at his mirror. He wasn't smiling. He feared that this was all a dream, but of course it's not. He doesn't know what to expect about Pokémon. He knows a few things like Fire Types and Water Types and stuff, but he doesn't really know what he will expect from them. He forces a smile and walks down to the stairs.

His Mom was waiting for him already. Her Pokémon was next to her, and they watch Red come down the stairs. They stare at each other for a while and then Red hugs her. Delia hugs him back as a few tears run down her face.

"Red, no matter what happens, remember that you always have your mother here. Don't let anything bring you down. Be brave and smart as you have always been. I love you."

Red breaks the hug and wipes her tear away from her eyes and states, "I love you too Mom. I'll call whenever I can."

He exits the door and looks back as her mother waves at his son goodbye. She closes the door.

And she begins to sob.

Mimey walks up to her and hugs her who gives the weakest smile at her Pokémon.........

Her Red is finally growing up to be a Pokémon Trainer. She will have to accept that her son will leave and journey on his own.



Red continues his way to the lab. He tried to get his mother's image out of his head and he succeeds when he sees something pink fly by swiftly. He looks around at the sky and sees it.

It was a Pokémon! But, what was it?

The Pokémon was small, pink and it had a long tail. It flew in front of him, inches apart from his face. He blinks twice, and the Pokémon does so too, mocking him. Then, the Pokémon looks at him with a curious look on its face. It smiles and nods its head. The cute Pokémon giggles and flies up into the air. All can Red could do was look at it, uncertain on what to do. The Pokémon tilts it head to the side and does a front flip in midair. It giggles again, covering its mouth.

Mew! it cried and flew off to Route 1.

"Wait!" Red yells and he runs after it. He runs through Pallet Town, and sees the long patch of grass that leads to Route 1. The pink Pokémon disappears in the grass. Red passes Prof. Oak who was studying a Pikachu.

He was just touching the grass to Route 1 when he suddenly hears the Professor call out his name.

"Hey! Wait! Don't go out! It's unsafe! Pokémon live in tall grass! You need your own Pokémon for protection! Here, come with me Red. I have something to tell you anyhow."

Red looks out into Route 1.

"But....."

"Now Red, come along."

They enter the Pokémon Lab. Only a few lab assistants and Blue were inside. Blue had his arms folded and was clapping his foot onto the ground impatiently.

"Gramps, I'm fed up with waiting!" he exclaims.

"Blue? Let me think.... oh that's right! I told you to come here! Just wait a sec Blue. Here, Red. There are three Pokémon that are of course in these Pokeballs. When I was young I was a serious trainer just like how you and Blue will become one now. In my old age, I can't do such a thing so I would like you two do me a favor, but first, Red, choose your starter."

His words angered Blue.

"Hey, Gramps! What the hell?! What about me?!"

Oak shook his head. "Blue, language please. Be patient Blue, you can have one too."

Red walks up to a table which contained three Pokeballs.

It was time to choose his very first Pokémon.

Blue suddenly runs and bumps Red out of the way.

"Hey, watch it!" Red yells.

"You got in the way!" Blue responds.

"I did not! You freaking pushed me!"

"Well then, you were in the way right?"

Red and Blue lock hands and start to push each other to see who's strongest.

"Red! Blue! Please just choose your Pokémon!" Prof. Oak said trying to break the rivals apart.

Blue pulls his hands away and looks away from Red.

"Humph! I'll get a better Pokémon, and besides, I don't need to be greedy like you. Go ahead and choose Red!"

Red gladly smiles and looks at the table.

Blue smiles secretly. Good, now he can see what Pokémon Red will get, and he will choose the opposite type. Blue will have a bigger advantage than Red!

Red looks at a Pokeball. It had the fire symbol on the roof of the Pokeball. He grabs it and unleashes it into the room.

A Charmander appears and gives a big yawn. It looks up and sees Red.

Char?

Red smiles at it. It’s perfect!

"Hey little guy, the name's Red!"

Char?


The Pokémon looks at his new trainer.

It sniffs him. Charmender looks a bit skeptical. Maybe it didn't like Red?

The Pokémon suddenly jumps on Red's leg and starts to cheer. The new friends give a few twirls in glee. Red received the Charmander from Prof. Oak!

"Hey, it likes me!" Red said happily.

"Red, so I see you want the fire Pokémon Charmander? It seems really energetic! Would you like to give it a name?" Oak asks.

Red thinks about it. "Lizardon? Fuego? Nah, I'll just leave it how it is."

"Great, now move over!" Blue said pushing Red aside. Charmender looks at Blue and its eyes turn orange.

"I'll take this one then!" Blue said snatching a Pokeball of the table. It was the Pokeball with the water symbol.

Blue suddenly throws his Pokeball to the floor and a Squirtle appears. The little Pokémon looks around and finds Blue.

"Hey there Squirtle, I, Blue Gary Oak, am your new Master. So you only listen to me ok?"

Squirtle looks confused but nods its head.

"My Pokémon looks a lot stronger than yours," Blue said to Red who rolls his eyes.

Charmander looks at Squirtle.

Char, char?


Squirtle looks at Charmander.

Squirtle, squirt!

The two Pokémon start to chase each other around gleefully.

"Your Pokémon seem to be friends!" Prof. Oak said as he watched Squirtle and Charmander ran along.

"They are not friends!" Blue exclaims. He grabs the Squirtle.

"Now listen here you! We don't play with Red's Pokémon! Can't you see that we're rivals with him?"

Squirtle looks at Charmander.

Squirtle?

"No! Just do as I say, ok?" He sets the Pokémon down.

Charmander approaches Squirtle. The water Pokémon looks sadly away. Charmander looks sad and walks up to Red.

"You're messed up in the head Blue," Red coldly said as he returned Charmander back into his Pokeball.

"Whatever Red. We could battle right now, but I really want to start my journey. Okay! I'll make my Pokémon fight to toughen it up! I don't want to lose to some loser like you, Red. Gramps, I'll see ya later, I have Pokémon to capture and Gym Leaders to beat. Smell ya later!" Blue then walks out the door.

Red stares at the door. He turns to Professor Oak.

"Good luck on your journey Red, it will be difficult with many challenges and hard Pokémon Trainers." Oak said to him.

"I don't need luck, Prof. Oak. I’ll be the best out there, you’ll see, I won’t let you down! Well I'll see you later Professor. I can't let Blue win me." And Red hurries off out the door.

Professor sits down at his chair.

"Oh no! I forgot to give them the Pokedex! Well, they'll come back when they realize they're missing it...."


~~~~~Sid and Kenny
Sid wakes up.

"Oh my God! What time is it?!" He looks at his watch. He curses and runs downstairs.

"Sid! Where are you going with your underwear?" his mother said. Sid looks down and sees that all he's wearing are his boxers.

"Dang it!"

He quickly runs back upstairs into his room. He puts on his tan khakis, his dark brown shirt, and his shoes on. He then puts on his red bandana over his forehead and runs out the door.



Kenny just woke up as well.

"Great, of course I would be late!" Kenny states to himself.

He puts on a pair of grey pants, a white shirt with a grey and black Pokeball in the middle. On top of that he put on a blue sweater. He puts on his shoes and puts on a blue beanie over his head. He then grabs his white backpack and puts on his glasses.

"Bye Mom, bye Dad, I'll be back in a few minutes!" Kenny yells as he runs out the door.



Sid runs inside the laboratory. He stops by the Professor.

"Oh, hello! I thought I was done with the trainers. You are Sid, yes?" Prof. Oak asked.

Sid was panting. "Hey. Yes I am."

Prof. Oak looks at him worriedly. "Are you ok?"

Sid nods his head and looks at Prof. Oak.

"Can I have my starter now? I've been waiting of this for a while now."

The Professor handed him a Pokeball.

"This is the last starter Pokémon that I have. It's a Squirtle."

Sid took the Pokeball. A smile breaks through.

"This is exactly the Pokémon that I wanted! Wow, thanks Prof. Oak!"

The Professor smiles. “That wraps up all the Starter Pokémon!”

"Professor Oak!" Kenny yells as he bursts through the door.

He stops his tracks when he sees Sid standing next to the Professor. Sid stared at Kenny with shock.

Kenny had nothing else to think but, Oh no, what is he doing here?!

Kenny can feel his face turn red of embarrassment.....

He steps up to the Professor and tries his hardest to not look at Sid.

"Professor Oak, I'm sorry for being late, but do you still have a starter for me?"

Sid looks at Kenny. Is this the kid who he had that awkward staring contest yesterday? He looks straight up like a nerd.

Kenny can see from the corner of his eyes that Sid was staring at him. Kenny can only hope that his blush isn't noticeable.

"Unfortunately, I just gave my final one to Sid here..."

Kenny's world seems to have faded to a black abyss. He goes on his knees and groans.

"But, I still have another other Pokémon that isn’t necessarily a Starter Pokémon."

Kenny's head shoots up. "You do?" Kenny asks.

Sid looks over to the Professor and then to Kenny. Sid felt this rush of guiltiness go through him. Wow, he actually did take the final starter. At least he gets a Pokémon...

He shrugs and begins to walk away. Maybe that Blue kid is still around.

Professor Oak walks to his front desk and brings back a Pokeball. He throws the Pokeball to the ground and a Pokémon appears. It sparkles for a few seconds.

Sid looked over his shoulder and sees the Pokémon stop sparkling. He stares at it, curious at what it was.

"Kenny, this is a Sandshrew."

Kenny stared at it. Of course Kenny knew what a Sandshrew was, but..... it's green?

"Kenny this Sandshrew is a Shiny Pokémon."

Kenny leans forward on it. Sid, who decided to take a closer look, walks up to it and stares at it too.

The Pokémon steps a few steps back and slashes both of the curious boys. They scream in pain.

"Ow! What was that for you little punk!" Sid exclaims as he held his face.

"Sandshrew just got scared that's all. Sandshrew is a special Pokémon because of its color type of course. Instead of only one special ability, it has three. Or so I think... I don't study Shiny Pokémon... Actually, there is nothing special about it except that it is incredibly rare to find a Shiny Pokémon out in the wild. I caught this a week ago. You can have it if you want."

Kenny looks at the Pokémon while still rubbing his nose.

"I'll take it. Not like I have much of a choice."

Kenny kneels before the Sandshrew.

"Salutations! I'm Kenny!"

The Sandshrew just turned around from him.

"Don't worry, Kenny. He's just mad that you startled it. He'll grow on you," Oak said.

Kenny returned the Pokémon to its Pokeball.

"Thank you Professor Oak! I'll take care of Sandshrew." Kenny bows.

"Yeah Professor, thanks! I'll take care of Squirtle!" Sid cries out giving a wide smile that showed his sparkling white teeth.

Kenny almost drools. He notices that while he’s standing next to him, this guy was really tall.

The Professor gives them their Pokedex. Kenny noticed that his was a white color instead of red.

“Prof. Oak, why is my Pokedex white instead of red?” Kenny questions.

"Kenny, I am trusting you with this upgraded version of the Pokedex. You see, there are different versions of the Pokedex. I made them all different for each region. My latest one should reach Kalos by now.... Anyhow, you're version is the one that I call Generation 3 Pokedex. I colored it specifically for you. It is far more advanced than the ones I gave to others. I'm entrusting you to use it well."

Kenny shakes his head in shock.

“Professor Oak, I can’t do that! It’s not fair to the other Pokémon Trainers!”

The old man laughs. “Kenny, I read through your Pokémon Trainer School Exit Exam. You got the highest score of all the students in Kanto!”

Kenny blinked in disbelief. Sid’s mouth dropped.

“But…”

“No buts Kenny. I have hopes that you will complete the Pokedex too. You will see some of its advanced features later.”

Kenny looks at his Pokedex. "I thank you Professor, I will not let you down!" He bows down again.

Sid looks at his Pokedex and then to Kenny’s. He smiles at him.

"Hey, nice Pokedex! It looks badass!" Sid compliments.

Kenny blushes and said nothing as he hurries of the door. He waves at the Professor who just waved back. Sid hurries after him.

"Hey, wait up Kenny!"

Kenny stops outside the building. He faces the Hoenn kid.

Sid stops in front of Kenny.

"Hey, I don't think we really introduced ourselves. I'm Sid. I moved here from the Hoenn region," Sid said extending his arm.

Kenny looks at it and he can feel his face turn hot again.

"Why so shy dude, I ain't gonna bite."

Kenny decides to shake his hand. "I'm Kenny. Nice to meet you Sid."

Kenny quickly takes his hand away. Kenny starts to walk towards Route 1.
"Hey, wait! Wanna travel together?" Sid asks.

Kenny trips on air.

"Woah, you alright dude?" Sid said helping Kenny get up.

"I'm... ok… Thanks. You… would want to travel with me? Why?"

Sid smiles and puts his hand on the back of his head and said, "Well, I really don't want to travel alone. I hardly know this Kanto region, I’ll be such a noob, ya know? So it'll be chill to travel with someone who knows the places and stuff. And you seem to know everything. So what do you say, companions?"

Kenny looks away.

Wow. Sid actually wants to go with Kenny! Wow! Kenny turns back around.

"Sure. Shall we?"

"Uh, hold on, I forgot my backpack back at home. Mind waitin' for me?"

Kenny shakes his head and Sid runs off. No. Kenny doesn't mind at all. He smiles to himself.

Suddenly he hears someone yelling. He turns to see Satoshi running towards the Lab, still wearing pajamas.

"Kenny, please tell me it's not too late!" he cries.

"Satoshi, I was lucky enough to even get a Pokémon...." Kenny sadly states.

Poor Satoshi, he won't be able to get a starter now...

Satoshi races inside the Lab.

"Ready Kenny?" It was Sid. Kenny nods and turns towards Route 1.

And so it began, the first steps of the Kanto Journey has commenced!

Hello! Chapter4 is now ready! Hope you guys like it!


Chapter 4! Route 1: The Journey Begins!
~~~~~~Somewhere in Kanto
The Boss smiles widely. He stares at the monitor and sees all the kids get out of Pallet Town. They were all cheerful and happy.

"Why are you smiling?" Arianna questions.

"Today is the day children get their ill-faded starter Pokémon. Imagine all the Pokémon we could steal, my love." He wraps his arms around her waist.

She smiles. "Of course." She turns and kisses his lips.

They smile at each other. "I haven't kissed you in a while," Arianna says feeling The Boss' chest.

He smirks and walks to the desk. "I'm a busy man Arianna. Trying to maintain this place without fail is excruciating." He sits on the chair.

Arianna frowns. "Well.... Since I'm here now, can we talk about Silver?"

The Boss shakes his head. "Leave Arianna. I told you, we don't talk about him."

Arianna shakes her head. She walks to the door. "You know, he worries about you."

"I'm not surprised."



~~~~~~~Blue
Blue was now walking down the road of Route One. He has his hands in his pockets and casually passed all the other trainers who happen to be looking for Pokémon to catch.

Many people say that Route One is the shortest Route in Kanto, so this should be no problem for him. He has a Squirtle now, and he knows that Red will have a lot of difficulty trying to beat Brock in Pewter City.

All is according to plan. This is going too easy for him.

His main intention is to defeat all Gym Leaders and be the Pokémon Champion. That was the main deal anyway. And also to rub it on Red's face.

He comes up to a sign. It said, 'Route 1. Viridian City: 1 Mile Ahead.' He looks at the sign then down the road which was nothing but a path with tall grass laying randomly about.

Great, this won’t be too easy to get to Viridian first.

Maybe he could hurry up somehow.

He managed to sneak by Leaf earlier who was talking none stop on her PokeGear. He hopes that she doesn't catch up, he'll make a fool of himself....

This wasn't going to take long, maybe. He starts to fast walk. Red wouldn't be too far behind.

Suddenly Blue sees something fly by fast.

“What the hell was that?”

He looks around. Then he sees something else fly by. He notices that the Pokémon were Pidgeys.

Blue smiles.

Not the best flying Pokémon out there, but Red would be furious if he sees him with another Pokémon.

This is all too easy. He reached for his pouch, but just as he did that though, the Pidgeys flew off elsewhere.

"Oh no you don't!" Blue yells. He runs after the Pokémon.




~~~~~~~Leaf
"I know, I was like, what if Blue wants to journey with me? But then I was like, he won't want to because he wants to beat Red. I swear, either Blue likes Red secretly or his hatred is actually real. So far, I think that this whole rivalry is BS. Don't you think Bulba?"

Bulba smiles at her trainer, but deep inside Bulba's thoughts, she wanted her trainer to shut up for a while.

Leaf looks at her Pokedex and aims the camera on her Pokémon.

The Pokedex then spoke in a female mechanical voice, "Bulbasaur; Number 001. The seed Pokémon. A strange seed was planted on its back at birth. The plant sprouts and grows with this Pokémon. It can go for days without eating a single morsel. In the bulb on its back, it stores energy."

Leaf goes through her Pokedex. All the pages were blank black except for Bulba’s. It had a full set of information, her height, weight, and other stuff. She looks at her Pokémon.

"So, that's why you have a giant plant thingy on your back. How weird. But still kinda cute though. I can't wait to show you to Erika. She'll be over thrilled."

Bulba sighs.

They come up to a sign. She reads it and nods.

" I knew it, so this is actually Route 1. Hmm. Maybe we can find a shortcut or something. I don't want to get my shoes dirty."

Just as she said that, a Pokémon falls right on her face.

Wurmple! Wurmple!

Leaf freezes for a few seconds watching the giant worm Pokémon crawl around her face.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!"

Leaf throws the bug Pokémon of her face.

"Ew! EW! EEEEEWWWW!!!"

Leaf franticly wipes her face.

Bulba stares at her curiously.

"Who's that Pokémon?!" Leaf cries out and flashes her Pokedex on the worm.

"Wurmple; Number 265. The worm Pokémon. It sticks to tree branches and eats leaves. The thread it spits from its mouth, which becomes gooey when it touches air, slows the movement of its foes. It lives amidst tall grass and in forests. When attacked, it resists by pointing its venomous spikes at the foe."

Leaf looks back at the bug. She's never seen a Pokémon like this. It's so ugly compared to a Weedle.

"Ugh, Bulba, see if we can defeat this Pokémon. I choose you Bulbasaur!"

Bulba jumps in front of the Pokémon. It gives out a cry.

Wurmple?

"Ok, what do I do now?" Leaf looks at Bulba with her Pokedex.

"Known moves: Tackle, Growl."

Leaf smiles. This should be easy!

"Ok! Bulba, use Growl!"

Bulba growls at the Pokémon and Wurmple backs away looking scared.

"Ha! How do you like me now you stupid worm!"

Suddenly, Wurmple lets out something from its mouth and surrounds Bulba with white silky web. Leaf screams.

"Bulba, use Tackle!"

Bulba tackles the Pokémon a few inches away, Wurmple does the same silky move and covers Bulba even more. Bulba staggers back and forth. It was losing its speed, Leaf noticed.

"Bulba Tackle it again!" Leaf yells.

Bulba leaps forward only that Wurmple manages to move away. Wurmple then leaps forward and stings Bulba with its front stinger, impaling itself to Bulbasaur's right arm. Bulba exclaims in pain. Bulba falls to the ground, but gets up and shakes the Pokémon away.

"Bulba, use Tackle again!"

This hit was a direct hit, and Wurmple flies off into the air a few feet up. It falls down, hitting the floor hard. It didn't move, and its eyes were closed. Leaf waited a while.

"Oh my God, I killed it!" she concluded.

There was a sudden ding from her Pokedex. She looks at it.

Bulbasaur's image appeared and a blue bar was under its image.

"What is this?" Leaf questions.

"Pokémon earn experience points when winning a battle. These points help them level up. When a Pokémon levels up to a certain level, they evolve."

Leaf closes her Pokedex.

"It said that you’re now in Level 6. I wonder what level you evolve in."
She stares at the Wurmple. “It looks dead to me, how is it that it faints?”

Leaf walks up to her now looking tired Pokémon.

"How do I take all this web off? Um... are you ok? You look too tired."

She flashes her Pokedex at Bulba.

"Your Pokémon is poisoned."

Her eyes widen. "No! Oh my God! What do I do?"

The Pokedex then spoke, "Poison can be treated very easily with an antidote sold at a PokeMart. Or simply go to a Pokémon Center. Pokémon's health points will reduce every passing minute if poisoned. If left untreated for a week, death will occur."

Leaf carries her Pokémon.

Although she was now covered in web, she carried it.

"Hang in there Bulba, I promise that you'll make it. There's a Pokémon Center in Viridian."

Leaf then breaks into a run. Bulba on the other hand throws up on her back. Leaf stops for a second but then remembers that her Pokémon is in danger. She ignored her nice clothes and continues her way to Viridian City.




~~~~~~Red
Charmander was walking right next to Red. Together they journey across the shortest route in Kanto to reach Viridian City.

Before he went into Route 1, he said goodbye to his mother. She was so happy to see Red with his Pokémon. It was hard for Red to leave his mother like that, but he must become the ultimate trainer there is. He also passed a man who gave him a Potion.

Charmander looked excited to walk with his trainer Red noticed.

Red looks around. There's no Pokémon in sight. Maybe they're all hiding somewhere along the tall grass.

"Alright Charmander, listen for a while, ok?" Red said.

The Pokémon gladly faced its trainer.

"In TV it said that you guys level up by battling and winning other Pokémon. So I want you to at least get to the next level before we continue to Viridian. But, we'll have to battle other Pokémon. So are you with me?"

Charmander looks a little bit uneasy but nods its head. Red pets Charmander's head and then they walk into a patch of long grass.

They walk around it for a while.

Suddenly they hear a rustling sound.

Red can then see a Pokémon.

A wild Rattata appeared!

It was looking straight at them.

"Go Charmander!"

The Pokémon jumps in front of the Rattata.

The Rattata opens its mouth and lets out a cry.

"Charmander, use Scratch!" Red yells out.

Charmander rushes up to it and scratches the Rattata.

The Rattata winces and shakes its head. Then it tackles Charmander to the floor. Charmander gets up.

"Use Scratch again!" Red shouts.

Charmander dashes to the Rattata and scratches the poor Pokémon on its forehead. Rattata then faints.

Red smiles.

"Yes! We did it Charmander! We won our first Pokémon Battle! Feel stronger?"

Charmander exclaims and jumps up and down. Then it flexes. Red laughs.

"Alright, let's go to Viridian now. I think you got enough experience. I'm not sure though. I wonder how you know how much experience a Pokémon gets..."

Red and Charmander pass the fainted Pokémon and walk pass a sign that confirms that this was in fact Route 1.

Red found himself thinking about that strange Pokémon that he saw earlier today. What could it be? It said Mew, but would that actually be its name? Who knows? All Red can do was hope to see it again someday.




~~~~~~Sid and Kenny
Kenny watches Sid walk.

They were quiet; no one was talking at all. It was so awkward, he could faint of pure stress. He was still in shock that Sid would even want to walk with him. With Kenny.

Wow.

However, this doesn't confirm anything. He can’t assume too much.

Sid could only be doing this because of kindness. Or maybe Sid did in fact not know this region.

Kenny found himself staring at his behind. Kenny suddenly looks away and realizes that a nose bleed was coming.

Luckily, Kenny brought a tissue box from his house, he knew that being with someone like Sid was sure to bring nosebleeds.

Kenny puts his napkin on his nose and sees the blood drip on to the tissue.

Sid glances back at Kenny.

"You ok? You're bleeding..."

Kenny smiles. His first conversation?

"Oh it is nothing really, it's just this condition I have called proboscis epistaxis continuance. It makes me bleed every once in a while."

Sid stares.

Oh great. Once again, Kenny managed to freak someone else because of his smartness.

"Oh, cool. I didn't even know that existed."

Kenny sighs.

"So what's the next town?"

Kenny looks at his map.

"It's Viridian City. According to the map, it's only a mile ahead of us. Strange, it seemed longer when the bus would come and pick us up… This is Route 1."

Kenny stops to notice a fainted Pokémon on the ground.

“Cool! That’s a Wurmple! I didn’t know they lived in Kanto too!” Sid shouts poking the fainted Pokémon with a stick.

Kenny quickly flips through his Pokedex. He aims the camera, and a noise is heard. He sees the Pokémon in page number 265.

“It says here that many other Pokémon are brought through ships, and Wurmple are common to travel the region accidentally. Interesting, they’re native in Hoenn but are known to reside in other regions… Can evolve to two different kinds of Pokémon… Fascinating.”

Sid smiles and walks up to Kenny. He stands next to Kenny and glares at the Pokedex.

Sid is taller than Kenny. By like four inches too. He's all a bit chubby, but Kenny bets it’s all muscle....

Kenny can feel Sid's warmth. His nosebleeds worsens.

"Is there a gym there? Viridian City? I really want to win one."

“A gym? You wish to battle all the Gym Leaders don’t you?” Kenny questions.

Sid grins widely.

“You bet! That’s the goal of all the Pokémon Trainers, win all the Gym Badges!”

Kenny said nothing and sets his Pokedex away. He then puts it inside his backpack and proceeds to take a book out. He finds the Gym Leader section.

"Yes, there is, his name is Giovanni. He's the eighth Gym Leader. I’ve never seen him in person. I’ve seen him battle, and he’s one fierce Gym Leader."

Sid looks at Kenny. Kenny made eye contact, and then he immediately looked away.

Sid didn't know what to think. This guy's smart, he thought. Very smart. Maybe he would be an awesome companion after all. He's very shy too.

Sid hears something.

He turns to his right and he sees a Pokémon. What is it?

"Hey Ken, what Pokémon is that?"

Kenny looks at Sid then to the Pokémon.

"It's a Sentret, Normal type. They normally come from the Johto region, but of course due to migration, some Pokémon come over and inhabited some places. Did you just call me Ken?"

Sid stares at the Pokémon that was eating a berry of some kind.

"Hey, let's catch it!" Sid exclaims.

" 'Let's'? As in us?" Kenny questions and turns around.

"Haha, you know what I meant dude! It could be strong!"

Kenny frowns. A Sentret strong?

"I don't know, don't you think we should check its statistics first?"

Sid looks at Kenny with a blank expression.

Kenny sighs and takes out his Pokedex.

Kenny aims his Pokedex at the Sentret. A male mechanical voice then said, "Sentret; Number 161. The scout Pokémon. It stands on its tail so it can see a long way. If it spots an enemy, it cries loudly to warn its kind. When acting as a lookout, it warns others of danger by screeching and hitting the ground with its tail."

Kenny presses the Pokémon's picture on his Pokedex and a new screen pops up.

"It's a female, Level 5. It knows Tackle and Defense Curl. Strange, I wonder what are EV’s and IV’s. I’ll have to check on this later. So far the numbers seem pretty low. You want it?"

Sid looks at it.

"Nah, I think I'll just battle it."

Sid throws a Pokeball to the floor, and Squirtle comes out of it.

The Pokémon stretches.

"Alright Squirtle, you and I are gonna battle for the first time, so give it all you got."

Sid looks behind him to see that Kenny was smiling and when Sid smiles at Kenny, Kenny quickly looks away.

He's too shy, Sid thought.

Suddenly a shrill came from the Sentret.

Sid looks at it.

"What's it doing?"

The Sentret then begins to slap its tail on the floor rapidly.

Out of nowhere a lager Pokémon ran in front of the Sentret.

"Uh oh," Kenny said.

Sid flashes his Pokedex at the Pokémon.

"Furret; Number 162. It lives in narrow burrows that fit its slim body. The deeper the nests go, the more maze-like they become. There is no telling where its tail begins. Despite its short legs, it is quick at hunting Rattata."

Sid looks at Kenny.

"What is a Furret doing defending this Pokémon?"

Suddenly Squirtle gets thrown to Sid and they both fall.

The Furret then jumps on Squirtle and scratches its head.

"Hey! That's not fair! Squirtle attack!"

Sid's Pokémon looks confused.

"You have to tell it what move to use!" Kenny shouts.

"Wait what the hell? How do I know what his moves are?"

Kenny once again uses his Pokedex.

"Squirtle; Number 007-"

Kenny presses the screen. He quickly examines it.

"He has Tackle, Tail Whip and Agua Jet!"

Sid gets up.

"Squirtle, Tackle!"

Squirtle lunges forward and knocks the poor Furret to the ground in one blow.

"Haha! Take that you stupid Furret!"

It gets back up and scratches Squirtle again. Squirtle flies into the air.

"No way!" Sid shouts as he sees Squirtle fly up higher and higher.

Sid's Pokémon falls to the floor. It wasn't moving.

"Oh no!" Sid runs to it.

"He fainted...." Kenny said.

"Hey Kenny, you try to defeat that bastard, he's way out of my league," Sid tells Kenny.

"It's gone."

Huh? Sid looks back, Kenny was right.

The Furret and Sentret are gone.

“Damn it.”

Kenny walks up to Sid who picks up his fainted Pokémon.

"Wow, my first battle, and I loose. I suck at this."

Kenny shakes his head but doesn't look at Sid.

"It was your first try I’m sure you will get better. For the most part, you were great. Even though it's the Pokémon that usually does all the work."

Sid notices a smear of red going through Kenny's face.

Is he.....blushing?

No, he's just shy around people, so maybe this is the closest that he has ever been to a stranger.

"Sooo what now? I'm just gonna have to stay with my fainted Pokémon?" Sid said.

"To Viridian City. There's a Pokémon Center there that should heal your Pokémon. And the Gym Leader."

Sid puts his Pokémon back in its Pokeball.

"Alright then, Ken, lead the way partner."

Kenny turns away blushing and they start their way to Viridian City. Sid follows closely. Maybe being with Kenny wasn't a bad decision after all.

They continue to walk through Route 1. Suddenly, they see a boy in a bike zoom off. Kenny and Sid stop.

"Was that Satoshi Ketchum?" Kenny asks.

"Who?"

There was a loud boom, and about thirty flying Pokémon fly above them, chasing the boy. Kenny looks into the sky.

"Where did those rain clouds come from? The forecast said nice weather..." Kenny states staring at the sky.

It starts to rain.

"Wow, nice start for a journey huh?" Sid jokes elbowing Kenny.

"Ouch."

"....Sorry...."

PKMN Trainer
Hey there everyone! Here's the next chapter! Hope you enjoy it!


Chapter 5! The Tales of Viridian City!
~~~~~~Satoshi
"Please make sure he'll be ok Miss!" he cries as he sees his Pokémon get carried away by other Pokémon inside another room.

Satoshi was close to tears. This was not how he intended to start his Pokémon journey. That storm could’ve killed him… send him in a comma or something. But Pikachu…

"He's in critical condition, but he will be fine by tomorrow. Right now you need to rest."

Satoshi sees her go inside the room. He can only hope that Pikachu's ok. He couldn't have taken that much electricity from that lightning. It’s not healthy…

He finds a seat on a couch.

That storm came out of nowhere. He was so lucky to even get out of there alive. All those trainers better have taken cover, it was bad. He suddenly remembers that one girl he stole the bike from.
He felt sort of guilty for stealing that girl's bike too… Maybe all the other trainers are still out there in that storm, like that one girl...

But he was really more interested in that Pokémon that he saw in the clearing.

It was glowing, and that rainbow was surprising too. It was big with feathers, it looked amazing.

What was that Pokémon? The Pokedex didn't get to read it in time….

The doors open and a kid enters. He walks up to the front desk. The boy looked very impatient, but he was smirking.

"Hello, anyone here, my Pokémon need healing you know!" the kid shouts.

"I'll be out in a second!" a voice was heard from the other room.

"I need them healed now!" the boy insisted.

This made Satoshi mad. He stood up and faced the kid.

"Hey! Can't you see she's busy with other Pokémon right now?!"

The kid smirks at Satoshi.

"Whose Pokémon is more important than mine?"

Satoshi closes his fists. "She's fixing up my Pikachu!"

The kid chuckles. "You got a Pikachu? What a stupid Pokémon. Who's your starter then?"

Satoshi stays quiet and looks the other way.

"Let me guess, my grandfather gave you a late Pokémon? How pathetic! You should have been there earlier then you would have gotten a better one than a Pikachu."

Satoshi's anger rises higher at his words.

"You know, you look familiar, aren't you related to Red or something? You two seem to be both suck at everything. Same stupid face and everything."

"I'm Satoshi from Pallet Town! And I'm not related to Red! You don’t deserve to be called an Oak, Gary!"

Blue looks at Satoshi. He closes his eyes and shoos Satoshi away.

"Oh I know who you are Satoshi. Who doesn’t know who you are? You’re like a trademark really. Everyone in Trainer's School used to call you Ashy Boy. Because your face was always so ashy. Right Ashy Boy? And I’m an Oak alright, there’s no one better than me, and I’m certainly better than a wimpy kid like you!"

This was the break point. Just as Satoshi was about to throw a punch, the doors fly open.

"Hey you kid! What is this crap?!"

Satoshi stares. It was the girl that he stole the bike from. She was all wet, and her face was pink from anger.

"You steal my bike, and you leave it abandoned all burned up! What the hell kind of manners do you have on a girl?! I can sue you right now, hell, I’ll kick your *** right now if I wanted to!"

Blue chews on an apple loudly. The girl and Satoshi face him. He just smirks.

"Well, well, well. What do we have here? Aren't you Misty, the Gym Leader of Cerulean City?" Blue asks as he takes another bite of his apple.

"Yes, I am! And this kid just... messed up my bike!"

Satoshi finds his voice. "I'm sorry Misty, I needed it to take my Pokémon to the Pokémon Center. It was an emergency!"

Misty suddenly looks calm and worried. "Oh yeah, that's right, I forgot. Is your Pikachu ok?"

Satoshi was surprised at how fast she had calmed down, but it was the benefit for him.

"Not so good, he's in critical condition."

Blue throws the apple cord on the floor.

"What did you even do to it Ash? I bet you tried to get rid of it cause it's so stupid."

Misty looks at Blue. Her eyes turned to fire.

"For your information Pikachu was struck by lightning!"

Blue shakes his head. He gives a small chuckle and said, "I knew you wanted to get rid of it somehow, but damn can you be cruel to Pokémon."

Satoshi was about to strike, but Misty did it instead.

Blue stumbles back. He was bleeding from his mouth already in just one strike.

"You’re nothing but a bully! You're so ignorant! Why don't you get out before I knock some sense into you?!"

Blue looked visibly angry. "Whatever, this Pokémon Center is stupid with bad service anyway. I'm going to enjoy bringing you down, Misty! Smell ya later, dorks!"

Blue exits the door.

Satoshi blankly stared at Misty. "You hit Blue Oak..."

Misty smiles at Satoshi's reaction. "That idiot deserved it. I can't believe that he's Prof. Oak's grandson! So you're staying overnight for Pikachu, huh?"

Satoshi nods.

"Well I guess I'm staying too."

Satoshi looks at her eyes.

"But the gym! Who will be the Leader then?"

Misty sits down and smiles.

"Well kid, my gym opens on the weekdays not on weekends. And even if could go back, I can't since my bike is BBQed."

Satoshi looks away as she said that.

"What's your name anyway?"

"Satoshi, Satoshi Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town."

Misty smiles at him.

“I’m Misty from Cerulean City. Nice to somewhat meat you since you destroyed my bike.”

Great, he's stuck here with Misty. He glances quickly at her. She was looking around the Pokémon Center, admiring all the cute Pokémon that needed to be healed. She's kinda cute......




~~~~~~ Red
The lightning flashes the sky and then thunder breaks the silence as Red quickly took shelter in the Pokémon Center. He lets out a sigh of relief.

Where did the storm even come from? It was ok a few minutes ago as he was walking down Route 1.

He sits down on a couch. He made sure that his items were ok and dried. He then takes off his hat and shakes the water off. He looks up to see a girl and a boy, who Red recognized as Satoshi, and they’re sitting down in another couch parallel to his.

"Hey, Red,” Satoshi says when he notices him.

Red just waves back at him.

"Gary was in here earlier you know. He said that you and I are related! Can you believe him? We don't even look alike."

Red cringes at the thought of him. That means that Blue is a step ahead of him.

The girl looks at Red then at Satoshi.

"You two kinda look the same. Maybe you're lost cousins or something."

Satoshi shakes his head in disapproval.

"Red and I don't look the same. Besides, I talk more than he does, in school he was always the quiet one."

Red looks at Satoshi. He was right. Red never really liked to interact with people ever since Blue left him to be more with Pokémon and his other friends. Red still talked to people though, not as much as people do to each other however.

"What starter did you get Red?" the girl asks.

"I got Charmander."

The girl chuckles. "Ha! Good luck beating me! I'm a water trainer in Cerulean City."

Red knew that he had seen her from somewhere. She's Misty! The new Gym Leader in Cerulean City. What was she doing here in Viridian?
Red hears a door open. He sees the nurse come out from the backdoor. She walks to her desk.

Misty and Satoshi stand up and hurry to the nurse.

"How is he nurse? Is he ok?" Satoshi asked worriedly.

"Your Pikachu is resting and is fine now. I took all the unnecessary electricity, so he should be fine. You can get him back in the morning."

Satoshi smiles in relief.

Misty sits back down with a slight smile on her face. Satoshi then sits down as well.

"Weird weather here in Kanto. That storm almost killed us," Satoshi said to Red who was just sitting down looking at a poster of a Gym Leader called Lt Surge.

"At least that lightning hit Pikachu. You could've ended in a comma. Ha, then you could've imagined the whole journey Satoshi!" Misty jokes.

"I saw a Pokémon," Satoshi said ignoring Misty, "it was big and was flying across the storm in an opening. A rainbow suddenly came out when it touched the sun. It was glowing and it was green with red orange."

The nurse suddenly stands up.

"Did you say glow?"

Satoshi nods. Red looks at him.

"It could be you saw the Legendary Pokémon, Ho-Oh."

This caught Red's attention. Legendary Pokémon?

"Ho-Oh?"

The nurse walks up to the now interested children.

"Yes, Ho-Oh. Is it that Pokémon right there in that picture?"

She points to a poster on a wall. A bird like Pokémon was flying upward, while on the other side of the poster, another Pokémon was going under to what appears to be water.

"Yes, that's it!" Satoshi cries.

"Then yes it is Ho-Oh."

Misty gets closer to the poster. She feels the poster.

"Why is it Legendary? What makes a Pokémon Legendary?" Red asks.

"There are a lot of Pokémon that are based around legends, so we call them Legendary Pokémon. Ho-Oh is one of many. The one at the other side of the poster is the Beast of the Sea: Lugia."

Red comes up to the poster. He stares at this majestic drawing. He then looks at the other Legendary Pokémon, Lugia.

"So what's the legend?" Satoshi asks.

"Well the legend has been changed throughout history, but it only focuses on one true and main story. The most famous version is this version that I heard when I was small. In the Johto Region, there are two main towers: the Bell Tower and the Brass Tower. It was said that Lugia rested on top of the Brass Tower while Ho-Oh on the Bell Tower. One day there was a giant storm, and lightning struck the Brass Tower. It burned, luckily everyone except three Pokémon survived. Then the rain set the tower's flames off. Lugia and Ho-Oh were never seen again. No one knows where Lugia is, but as for Ho-Oh countless of sightings has been recorded. Apparently, those pure of heart can see it."

Red looks at Satoshi and so does Misty.

"Humph! Satoshi has to be lying since he ruined my bike!" Misty exclaims.

"I took it for Pikachu. It could've died!" Satoshi exclaims.

Misty still looked mad.

The nurse gives a small smile and leaves to the other room.

Red looks at the poster again.

Ho-Oh and Lugia huh? The wonder of how it would be like to see them strikes his mind. Satoshi’s got to be lucky. Seeing a Legendary Pokémon… If anyone gets to ride them, they must be the luckiest trainer in the world.




~~~~~~Leaf
Leaf runs to the Pokémon Center.

"Help, help!"

She stops in front of the front desk. The nurse comes running back.

"Yes? What happened?" the nurse asks worriedly.

"It's my Bulbasaur, it's been poisoned!" Leaf shouts looking at her Pokémon that she carried through the whole run.

She had stopped next to a tree due to the rain, and she had fallen asleep earlier, but she then remembered her sick Pokémon. Leaf was all wet now.

"Don't worry, it'll take a few seconds."

The nurse reaches into her pocket and takes out something. It looked like a spray thingy, Leaf concluded.

The nurse said, "This will hurt a bit, but it should heal your poison."

She sprays the bottle on Bulba, and she twitches a little.

"There, your Pokémon should be feeling nice and new any second now. You should rest here for a while, you seem socked."

Leaf nods at her and looks at the couches at the far end. Oh no. Red, Satoshi and some ugly dressed girl were staring at her. Did they already beat her in a Gym Battle?! Oh God, no!

She sits next to Red.

"Please tell me that you haven't fought any Gym Leaders," Leaf said.

Red shakes his head. Satoshi does the same.

She lets out a sigh of relief. "Oh thank God, that would have been so embarrassing! I battled a Wurmple, and it poisoned her. Then this storm came out of nowhere and I was like, stupid worm! Of course, Bulba defeated it and leveled up."

Misty and Satoshi exchange looks.

"Who are you?" Leaf said looking at that ugly girl.

Leaf never really liked to be that girl who examines fashion, but this girl dressed too much like a boy. Look at how her hair is set up, it's hideous.

"I'm Misty from Cerulean City. I'm the Gym Leader there."

Leaf gasps. "You are the Gym Leader in Cerulean?! Wow, you at least could dress more formal."

Misty's face turns hot. "What do you mean formal?! What's wrong with the way I dress?!"

Leaf shrugs and smirks.

"Well for starters, try to actually dress like a girl, and let your hair down too."

Misty was about to assault her when Bulba jumps onto Leaf's lap.

"So, what Pokémon do you use?" Leaf asks.

"You can find that out by yourself thanks."

Leaf looks at Misty. She looks away, setting her nose up into the air.

"Fine. I will. And I will enjoy winning you," Leaf said with a longer smile.

Misty looks away.

She won't lose to that girl, Misty thought. Not while she has her offensive team.




~~~~~~ Sid and Kenny
"Rattata; Number 018. The mouse Pokémon. Its fangs are long and very sharp. They grow continuously, so it gnaws on hard things to whittle them down. Bites anything when it attacks. Small and very quick, it is a common sight in many places."

"Hoothoot; Number 163. The owl Pokémon. It always stands on one foot. It changes feet so fast, the movement can rarely be seen. It begins to hoot at the same time every day. Some trainers use them in place of clocks."

"Spinarak; Number 167. The string spit Pokémon. It lies still in the same pose for days in its web, waiting for its unsuspecting prey to wander close. If prey becomes ensnared in its nest of spun string, it waits motionlessly until it becomes dark."

"Ledyba; Number 165. The five star Pokémon. It is timid and clusters together with others. The fluid secreted by its feet indicates its location. When the weather turns cold, numerous LEDYBA gather from everywhere to cluster and keep each other warm."

"Pidgey; Number 016. The tiny bird Pokémon. A common sight in forests and woods. It flaps its wings at ground level to kick up blinding sand. Does not like to fight. It hides in tall grass and so on, foraging for food such as small bugs."

"Pineco; Number 204. The bagworm Pokémon. It likes to make its shell thicker by adding layers of tree bark. The additional weight doesn’t bother it. It hangs and waits for flying-insect prey to come near. It does not move about much on its own."


Sid looks at Kenny. He scratches his head.

"What are you exactly doing dude?"

They were under a giant tree which covered most of the rain from the out of nowhere storm.

Kenny without looking at Sid said, "I'm completing my Pokedex. I always wanted to complete one, so now I'm doing it. You should try too; it's interesting to find out about the natures of Pokémon. Unfortunately, the Pokedex will only say some information unless you catch them. Once caught, you get full data. This Pokedex is weird however, it tells me about IV’s and EV’s, but I have no knowledge of this mechanic whatsoever."


Sid looks at his Pokedex. It was very plain compare to Kenny’s. Completing it would take forever.

"I'll do it if you help," he said.

Kenny turns to Sid who was now getting information on a passing Rattata.

Kenny stares. "You want my help? To complete the Pokedex?"

"Yeah, it'll be chill."

"Um, ok. If it's not much of a bother...."

Kenny can feel a blush coming so he turns away quickly.

There was silence for a while, but Kenny broke it when he asked, "So, how's Hoenn life? I heard things are always tropical there."

Sid looks at Kenny.

"I miss it dude. It was so peaceful. So many trees, so much water haha! South City was the best. I moved to Littleroot Town for a year though. That's when I met the most beautiful girl in the world."

Kenny tries his hard to not scream or do anything embarrassing. So he is straight… figures.

"I miss her, May. She was so bomb."

Kenny doesn't look at him.

"Did you two date?" Kenny said, but he failed to sound happy.

"Hell yeah! She and I would go anywhere! I once took her to see a movie and she kissed me. First kiss too," Sid said with a wide smile.

He was lying though. He and May never went out. All they did was small talk. And even when Sid asked her out, she refused. She refused…

He shakes the thought and looks over at Kenny who was frowning.

Sid notices that Kenny looked gloom. "What's wrong Ken? Did my story put you depressed?"

Kenny shakes his head.

"No.... it's just that I've never even dated anyone in my life...."

Kenny swallows hard and he suddenly remembers Dom…

Sid felt guilty now. He couldn't just say the truth now, if he did, Kenny wouldn't trust him.

"Cheer up dude! I'll help ya get some hot chicks. And to do that, you'll have to enter the Kanto Pokémon League!"

Kenny looks up. What if Sid rejects the idea of him being gay? Maybe staying silent would be the best option.

"The Pokémon League? You really think I could even handle going to the Pokémon League? I mean it all seems so complicated to me, getting the Gym Badges and all."

Sid stands up.

"I might be stupid and lost at the first battle, but if there's one thing that I'm good at, it's battling! Whenever they do televise a Pokémon League Battle, I see it! I will help you if you help me with this Pokedex! And to um, you know, get smarter."

Kenny stares at Sid. Could he really mean all of that? Those this settle that they are traveling for sure?

Sid stretches out his hand out to Kenny.

"So partners?"

Kenny looks at his hand then at his beautiful brown eyes.

Kenny shakes it. Sid then pulls him up.

"Alright! So let's go Viridian City!" Sid exclaims running out into the rain.

"Ah, wait!" Kenny said grabbing his backpack and running after him.

As they were running however, they hear a deafening roar above them.

Sid and Kenny look up into the sky in fear.

They stare in amazement as a giant snake-like Pokémon flew across the sky. It was green with yellow stripes and huge. It floated up into the clouds before roaring once again. Before the boys can react however, the Pokémon disappears into the clouds, and then the weather turns calm and sunny in an instant. Sunlight hits them both. They stayed watching for about a minute or so into the sky.

The Pokémon was gone, but they could still hear its roar.

They kept staring at the sky in wonder and bewilderment.

"What. Was. That?" Sid asks Kenny.

"I... have no idea! Whatever it is, that was no normal Pokémon..."

They look at each other and they chuckle.

They continue their way down Route 1.

Sid set his arms behind his head smiling at the sky. Kenny sets his hands behind his back staring at the floor.

"No one will believe us," Kenny states.

"Well at least we saw it. That counts for something right Ken?”

Kenny smiles.

“Indeed.”

Both friends continued their way down Route 1 until they reached Viridian City.

Sid stops and faces Kenny.

“That’s a sign dude. I think we’ll be in one hell of an adventure.”

Kenny blushes and nods.

Sid suddenly wraps his arm around Kenny’s shoulders. They walk to the start of the city, anxious to see what would happen next.




~~~~~~Somewhere in Kanto
"Sir?" the Grunt said worriedly.

"What is it?" the Boss said petting his Persian.

"Sir, we managed to create it, sir. It's perfect this time."

A smile breaks through the evil man's face.

"Good. I want to see it immediately. It will only work into my commands."

The Grunt was about to leave, but the Boss was not finished.

"Now, now, what's the rush? I know about the incident regarding my money problem. That it was in fact you that sunk my money into the sea next to Vermillion City."

The Grunt suddenly tries to run to the exit, but a Pokémon closes it.

"No, it wasn't me, I swear!"

The Boss stands up.

"Lying to me now? Well, I hate liars and damn people who try to mess up my carrier. So, you, must die for the good of the Team."

The Grunt starts to bang on the door.

"No, don't do it, please! I'll make it up to you!"

The Boss smiles wider.

"Your death is your payment. Nidorino, use Poison Sting."


Jessie and James look at each other as the screams came to an end.

"Was that John?" James asks Jessie.

"I think so. Let's go before we end up like him!"

"Right!"

They bump into Arianna.

"What the hell are you two doing?" she asks looking at them with anger.

"Uh... nothing! We're just looking around! Well it was nice seeing you Ariana! Bye!"

Ariana sees the two Rocket Grunts run off.

She shakes her head.

Idiots. Just plain idiots.

She has no idea how those two are even in Team Rocket.

She felt the presence of someone looking at her. She turns to face Petrel.

“What do you want?”

Petrel laughs. “What, can’t I check out a nice piece of a**?”

Arianna smirks and walks up to him, forcing her hips to move in a sexy manner. She runs her fingers through Petrel’s face. She suddenly grabs his neck and slams him against the wall. Petrel lets out a surprised yell.

“Petrel, Petrel, Petrel. You only live because the Boss wants you to live. If not, I swear, you would be deep down in the ocean. Dead.”

Petrel lets out a toothy smile.

“Arianna, I can see the future, and you and I will be closer. I can see it.”

Arianna chuckles. “Keep dreaming.”

She lets him go and walks away. Petrel stared at her walk. He licks his lips.

“Oh you’ll come to terms my little red-head.”





~~~~~~Pallet Town
Oak watches the phone call. He gets it once it finally rang.

"Birch, tell me what happened, are you ok?"

Oak hears his old student laugh.

"I'm fine. It was just a rabid Poochyena. My new neighbor saved me by using my Pokémon, haha! I'm thinking of letting him keep it. I'm sure he'll want it, even though Starter Day isn't until next week."

Oak gives a sigh of relief.

"I'm fine, really. I'm surprised news traveled that fast."

Oak was frowning. He should tell him.

"Birch, it's still alive."

Birch laughed. "What's still alive?"

"Mew."

Oak can hear something crash. He figured something fell from his hands.

"Sam, that's not possible, it's dead. Dead, Sam."

Oak shakes his head and says, "It's alive. I saw it run off into Route 1. I wasn't the only one who saw it, a boy who lives in this town chased it too. It's alive."

There was silence.

"There's something I need to tell you too. It involves the two Ancient Pokémon. I think they might actually exist. My brother... he's being very persistent about it. Fly over here to Hoenn, we need to discuss this in length. I know they still watch you."

Oak nods. He looks around and swallows hard.

"I'll arrange a meeting. Until then, goodbye Birch."

"See you then."

Before Oak can hang up, he hears someone say, "Prof. Birch, Brendan is looking for you!"

Oak hangs up and looks at the ceiling.

It's alive. After ten years.

It's alive.

PKMN Trainer
Here's the next chapter!

Chapter 6: The Package of a Battle!

~~~~Red

It was now the next day, making it the first day that he was away from his mother. He promised to call, so he will. Leaf, Misty, Satoshi, Kenny, and Sid were still fast asleep. Which was good, this could give a head start to Red.

He walks up to the Video Call and dials his mother. It rings, and finally, his mother answers.

"Red! How are you honey? Did you make it safely? There was a big storm yesterday!"

Red just smiles. "I'm ok Mom, honest. I got here before the storm can get anymore worse. I'm just calling to say that I'm moving on from Viridian. I should be in the next town soon. I'll call you when I'm there."

Delia smiles at Red. "Ok Red. Take care, ok? Don't forget to call! I'm rooting for you!"

Red blows her a kiss and waves goodbye as he signs off. He looks at the floor for a few seconds and sighs.

"Miss your Mom?" Red hears Misty say.

He nods. He turns to face her.

"She seems nice, and she obviously cares a lot about you. I'm glad that you’re doing ok."

Red blushes a little, but luckily Misty didn't notice.

"I'm off now, get ready to face me when I reach Cerulean Misty."

She smiles. "I'm going to win anyway," Misty said winking at Red.

He smiles and waves goodbye as he exits the Pokémon Center.

Misty smiles to herself. Red will be easy to beat. When the nurse healed his Pokémon last night, she saw that his starter was a Charmender. Being a water type Gym Leader, this will be easy for her.



Red walks down the city. It wasn't as big as he had thought. The buildings were small, and there were mostly owned by the Silph Company. He had always wondered what Silph Co. did, maybe he could visit the main office one day.

He walks up to a gate, in which a woman and an old man blocked the way.

"You can't go through here! I absolutely forbid you from going through here! This is private property!" the old man shouts at Red who gets startled.

"Um....."

The woman looks at Red. "Oh Grandpa don't be so mean! I'm sorry, he hasn't had his coffee yet, if you're not in a hurry, can you wait a while? My son is making it right now."

Red just nods his head and walks back to the city.

Now he didn't know where to go next.

He walks back to the Pokémon Center. If he went back, it would be awkward…

He looks around and spots a building marked as PokeMart.

Hmm, maybe he should go there and see if he can buy anything useful for his journey. His mother did in fact transfer a lot of money to his ID.

He goes inside and sees people looking around buying their things. There were rows of stuff to get and buy. It looked expensive too.

"Hey! You come from Pallet Town?" the PokeMart clerk suddenly said.

Red looks around confused to see who he was talking about.

"You, in the red! Yeah you!"

Red walks up to the man behind the glass table.

"You know Prof. Oak right? His order came in; can I get you to give it to him?"

Red nods his head.

Red received the Pokémon parcel from the PokeMart clerk.

"Okay, thanks! Say hi to Prof Oak for me too."

Red nods his head and walks out.

Great, he thinks.

Now he has to return to Pallet Town. Back to the very beginning. He starts his way to Route 1.









~~~~~~Leaf

She yawns and looks at her Pokedex. It was 11:00am.

It's time for her to move on. She looks around to see everyone sleeping except for one person.

Red. Ugh, that guy can never seem to stop!

She grabs her things and exits the Pokémon Center, ignoring the fact that Red was gone.

Sunshine hits her face and she smiles about that.

"Well, at least the sun is out."

She walks down the sidewalk and sees a building. Ah, her old Early Trainer School. She remembers when she was a little girl and she would play with all her friends and laugh. Of course, she would scam them, but they were good friends.

Also when Satoshi, Blue, and Red….

She shakes off the fact and continues going down Viridian City.

She stops by a closed gym. Damn, how is she supposed to win Red and the others at the bet? Maybe there’s another one close by.

She smiles to herself and walks down further into the road and comes across a woman and a sitting old man drinking coffee from a mug.

"Go away!" the old man yells.

Leaf freezes. What the hell is this guy’s problem?

"Grandpa! Stop being so mean! Just pass little girl. Route 2 is straight ahead."

Leaf said nothing to the rude old man.

She stops next to a sign that read, "Route 2: Half a Mile to Viridian Forest."

Viridian Forest?! Oh no! She forgot about that stupid forest.

This could ruin her shoes!

But she will have to toughen up. No more girly crap. She’s a trainer. This a Pokémon adventure, and she will have to get dirty. Leaf was surprised that she was even thinking about this. Oh well….

Red and Blue could be way ahead of her, she realized. She hasn’t seen them. She looks around the grass area. She sees a Pikachu jump up a tree and disappear into the darkness.

Leaf sighs. Maybe Blue already defeated his first Gym Leader… No! She can’t be losing this early, she just reached her first city.

She sees movement behind some trees.

Something start to glow a faint pinkish blue. She squints her eyes to try to see better.

Out of nowhere, a pink flying Pokémon zooms into her view.

Leaf screams and falls back. She backs up from it.

Mew? The Pokémon cries.

Leaf hurries to take out her Pokedex, but when she turned, the Pokémon was already gone.

It flew off to Viridian City. She runs back to the city.

“Come back!”

What was that Pokémon? It was so cute!

As she was running, she was bumped by a man wearing a weird outfit. The letter 'R' was printed in his all black uniform. Leaf watches as the man enters a house with an evil smile on his face.

Wait a minute, she’s seen these guys before on TV. What was their gang name? Team Rocket?

Can this day get any weirder?

Leaf ignores the man and walks down Route 2, completely forgetting about the weird pink Pokémon.



Inside the house that the Rocket Grunt had entered, lay a tied up man.

“You won’t get anything out from me Proton. You can do whatever you want, I ain’t talking.”

"We can do this the hard way, or the easy way. You decide," the man in the suit said taking out a crowbar. He walks up to the man.

The tied up man stayed silent.

"The Boss wants his Dratini. Now, where the hell is it? Or I'll beat the living crap out of you."

The tied up man spits out blood to the Grunt's shirt.

"That's my favorite uniform. I guess it's the hard way then?"

He then slaps the tied up man with the crowbar.











~~~~~~Sid and Kenny

"We are way behind on everyone else in Pallet Town."

Kenny and Sid were hurrying up to pack up. Satoshi was still fast asleep, and Misty was very mad at that.

"Why don't you come with us Misty? We're heading for Cerulean on the way," Sid tells Misty. Kenny looks over at them.

"No thanks! This kid ruined my bike! So I'm going to make sure that he gets me a new one."

Sid looks disappointed and he and Kenny exit the Pokémon Center. Misty looks at Satoshi and then contained the urge to yell at him.

Kenny wasn't in a good mood today. Sid seemed to like girls..... he saw it, the way he stared at Leaf and Misty. Why did Kenny have such illusions that he could ever be with someone like him?

"Hey dude, did you see Misty? Isn't she like a new Gym Leader in Kanto?"

Kenny nods his head gloomily and said, "Misty is the Gym Leader in Cerulean ever since her father retired. This is her second year as Gym Leader. I suppose that some of her family members are substituting for her now. It doesn't matter that much though, she's a tough Gym Leader."

Sid smiles at this.

"Oh I bet she is. She's kinda hot. So was that Leaf girl."

Kenny gets more depressed. He sighs.

"So which would you date from those two?" Sid questions smiling widely.

Kenny almost trips. "D-Date? Uhm! Leaf!"

Sid gives a confused look at first, but then smiles widely and says, "Dude! I would so date her too! She's hot!"

Kenny's depression gets to a low level.

They continue their way down the road when Sid sees a building. "Hey, it's the Viridian City Gym!"

Sid runs to the building, Kenny following. Sid tries to open it. He tried again, no budge.

"What the hell, it's locked!"

Kenny looks at the windows.

"Well, the lights are out, maybe Giovanni left somewhere important. Either way, we need seven badges before we can fight him."

Sid stops trying to open the door.

"This sucks. What's next after this?"

Kenny looks at the map. "Route 2. It leads to Viridian Forest. After that, our first Gym Leader, Brock, will be there in Pewter City."

Sid adjusts his backpack. "Let's not waste time then! Red, Leaf, and Blue are already ahead of us! Race ya to Route 2!"

Sid breaks off running.

"Hey, wait for me!" Kenny said as he runs after him and tries to stuff his map into his backpack.

They pass an old man who yelled them to walk, but they ignored him. As they were running, Kenny saw in the sky a hot air balloon in the shape of a Meowth. He can see a woman with long crimson hair and a man with short blue hair. Kenny ignores it and they entered the first steps into Route 2.

"Think we'll ever see that giant green Pokémon again?" Sid asks.

"I doubt it!" Kenny answers back as they headed further to their next destination.



On that air balloon, a plan was being made.

"Listen up you idiots; I don't want you two to mess this up. The Boss is already pissed at you two for failing to do what he wanted. You know what he did to John, and I doubt that you two want to end up like him. He found out that the experiment died this morning, so you really don't want to screw up. We will be known after this attack. Butch is handling the Dratini case so it's up to us. And if we fail, I will personally scratch your faces up. Got it?"

"I don't know why you're telling this us Meowth, we know how to steal Pokémon from the Pokémon Center. We are almost there," James said playing with a red rose.

"We can handle it Meowth, so stop being such a worried cat," Jessie tells the talking Pokémon.

Meowth frowns.

They better do it right, Meowth thinks. If not, it's his head that will be on the Boss' wall.











~~~~~~Battle! Red Vs. Blue!

Red had made it to Pallet Town safely. He fought a few Pokémon on the way, but that’s pretty much it. He was now entering the Pokémon Lab, and Professor Oak seems glad to see Red.

"Ah Red! How is my old Pokémon? Well, it seems to like you a lot from that one time I saw it. You must be talented as a Pokémon trainer! What? You have something for me? Ah! This is the custom PokéBall I ordered! Thank you Red! Now, Red can I ask you for a favor?" Oak said smiling.

Suddenly the door opens.

It was Blue. He smirks and walks through the lab in his cocky manner.

Red can already feel the anger rising. He closes his fists.

Blue doesn't look at Red and said, "Gramps! What did you call me for?"

Red looks at Blue.

Professor Oak gasps. "Aha!"

Red looks at the Pokémon Professor.

"Oh, right! I have a request for you two. On the desk there is my invention, the Pokédex! It automatically records data on Pokémon you've seen or caught. It's a high-tech encyclopedia! Red and Blue. Take these with you. You can't get detailed data on Pokémon by just seeing them, though you get some data, not all of it is completed. You must catch them to obtain complete data. So, here are some tools for catching wild Pokémon. When a wild Pokémon appears, it's fair game. Just throw a PokéBall at it and try to catch it! This won't always work, however. A healthy Pokémon can escape. You have to be lucky! To make a complete guide on all the Pokémon in the world… That was my dream! But, I'm too old now! I can't get the job done. So, I want you two to fulfill my dream for me. Get moving, you two. This is a great undertaking in Pokémon history! Can I count on you two to help me with this?"

Red just nods his head.

Oak gives them the Pokedex.

Red received the Pokédex from Prof. Oak!

Blue smirks and looks at him.

"Alright Gramps! Leave it all to me! Red, I hate to say it, but you won't be necessary for this."

Red growls, "I don't need you tell me what I'm necessary to do or not!"

Blue smiles even wider. "Whatever Red."

Red said nothing and starts to head to the door.

"Wait, Red! Where do you think you're going? Let's check out our Pokémon! Come on, I'll take you on! Unless you're a wimp!"

Red turns his head to Blue.

"Well since you clearly only have one Pokémon, I'll be fair, I'll only use Squirtle."

Red walks slowly up to Blue.

"I won't lose, Red!"

"We'll just have to wait and see, Blue!"

Professor Oak sighs. "In here? All my work could be damaged.... wait!"

The Professor suddenly hurries to clear off the space. Red and Blue stare blankly.

"Sorry, don't want my stuff ruined, valuable research! Carry on!"





Red and Blue lock their eyes.

Blue smirks and gets on his battle stance. He then throws his Pokeball to the ground.

"Go Squirtle!" Blue yells out.

Red adjusts his hat with a serious expression of his face.

"Go Charmender!" Red unleashes his Pokémon.

Charmender and Squirtle look at each other confused to see each other again.

Red can feel sweat come down his face.

Blue knows he has the advantage against Red, so this will be very easy.

Out of nowhere, the two Pokémon embrace each other in a happy hug.

Char, Char!

Squirtle!


They were now running around playing.

Blue and Red fall to the ground.

"Squirtle! What did I say about playing with Red's Pokémon! We were just about to battle!" Blue yells as he and Red stand up.

Immediately the two Pokémon got into the center of the two boys.



Charmender looks at Red, who nods.

"Squirtle, use Tackle!"

Squirtle was hesitant at first, but then lunges forward. It was running swiftly towards Charmander.

"Charmender, dodge it!" Charmender jumps out of the way just before he was hit. Squirtle lands on a desk, breaking it. It shakes its head and frowns angrily.

"Scratch it Charmender!" Red exclaims.

The fire Pokémon does a small front flip and scratches Squirtle's face. The poor water Pokémon yells in pain. Charmander seemed to not like hurting Squirtle…

"Now use Scratch again!" Red shouts.

"Squirtle look out!" Blue says too late.

Charmender scratches him again, making Squirtle grunt in more pain.

"Squirtle, Tackle, now!" Blue orderes.

The water Pokémon shakes the pain off and runs in high speed and tackles Charmender to the floor. The tackle was strong enough to send it rolling across the hard floor. Charmander struggles to get up.

Blue laughs. "Again, Squirtle!"

Charmender only got to get up for a half a second before he pushed down again, sliding away a few feet, landing next to Red.

"Charmender, Scratch it again!" Red says pointing out to Squirtle.

Charmender gets up, and Red notices that the flame in Charmander’s tail had visibly grown.

Charmender dashes to Squirtle. Its arm on its back, getting ready to attack.

"Dodge it!" Blue shouts, but it was too late, Charmender had attacked it, hard enough to send the Pokémon staggering back in pain. Squirtle slides a few inches back, sending dust out of the ground.

"Finish it Charmender!"

Char! it cries as it raises its claws high up into the air and scratches Squirtle on its face, drawing a giant red scar on its left eye. Red notices blood on Charmander’s claws too.

Squirtle cries in pain and falls to the ground in defeat.

It wasn't moving, and blood was dripping down from its scar now.

Blue stares at Squirtle. He was panting, it was an intense battle… that he lost!

Professor Oak was chewing on a candy bar.

It was all quiet, except for the heavy breathing of Charmender.

Red wanted to cheer on the outside, but knew to keep it.

"W-WHAT?! U-u-unbelievable! I picked the wrong Pokémon! Gramps..."

Blue walks up to his grandfather.

"Sorry Blue, Red won fair and square. Pokémon do get hurt in battles, and sometimes death can occur, that's why it's only to faint a Pokémon, like your Squirtle."

Blue didn't like the fact that he lost..... to Red!

"I want a different starter!" Blue exclaims closing his fists in fury.

His grandfather shakes his head.

Blue runs to the table. He snatches the PokéBall.

"Fine, I'll get this Pokémon and Squirtle!"

Blue grabs Squirtle.

"Blue, you can't take that Pokémon!" Oak said.

"Whatever gramps, it'll help me for my Pokedex, as for you Red, this isn't over! I know! I'll borrow a Town Map from my sis! I'll tell her not to lend you one, Red! Hahaha! Don't bother coming around to my place after this!"

He storms out the Laboratory.

Red was about to run after him, but Oak stops him.

"No Red. It's not worth it. He can keep that Eevee. He will learn the hard way I suppose. I want you to have my Bulbasaur, Red. I was planning on giving you a Pikachu instead, but I figured a starter such as Bulbasaur would fit your tastes. I just got it yesterday, but I'm sure you'll have more time to tend to it. Either way, I have to go to Hoenn for the week, Professor Birch has found more evidence regarding Kyogre and Groudon. And a map will be useful on your journey, so stop by my house if you want."

Red nods his head even though he wondered what on Earth was a Groudon and a Kyogre.

Oak walks to a desk and hands Red a Bulbasaur.

"Thanks Professor. I have a question, do you know any Pokémon that's pink and flies around?"

The Professor thinks for a minute.

"Yes, I think you might be referring to Mew. It's a Pokémon that is hardly seen by anyone, it disguises itself. They're extinct however, the last one killed by Team Rocket. You say that you saw it?"

"Yeah, I saw it fly up to me yesterday. When you called me to get my starter Pokémon."

The Professor looks away.

"Thank you for telling me Red. I suggest you keep that quiet, you wouldn’t want people thinking you’re crazy now. Now carry on, I'm sure Blue would've gone off to Viridian by now."

Red said goodbye and left with Charmender close behind him.

The Professor sat on his chair. Could it be that Mew didn't forget about him? Could it be.... that Mew is really looking for Professor Oak after all this time?





~~~~~~Somewhere in Kanto

"Boss, Jessie and James are now in Viridian while Butch is interrogating the man who stole our Dratini. Everything is going well."

The Boss smiles.

"Good. I'm sure the Dratini is in the Viridian Pokémon Center. If Dratini is not there, kill the man. He has stolen. I hate when people interfere with my plans. Has the President answered my request?"

The Grunt shakes his head.

"Tell him if he doesn't want Saffron City to be taken, tell him that I want it soon. Or he will regret it."

The Grunt nods and leaves the door. The Boss pets his Persian.





~~~~~~Sid and Kenny

"If you're strong you'll survive and you'll keep your dream alive!" Sid continued to sing.

Kenny was trying to be polite and resist Sid's singing.

"What song are you even singing?" Kenny said.

Sid looks at him. He smiles widely, showing his white teeth.

"I don't know, I used to hear it in Hoenn. Every region has their own theme you know."

Kenny blushes.

He didn't know that...

"So what now dude, we just continue our way to Pewter City right?" Sid asked.

Kenny nods and takes out his book. "Yes, according to my book, Brock specifies in Rock Type Pokémon. So, therefore you have the advantage."

Sid smiles at that.

"Alright! Hey, let's battle Pokémon! I want my Squirtle to gain more experience!"

Sid throws his Pokeball in the air and Squirtle comes right out of it.

"Hey bud, ready to fight again?"

Squirtle!

Sid laughs. "Alright then, all we have to do is find a worthy opponent. How about that Pokémon right there!" Sid points to a short purple Pokémon eating a blue berry.

"A Nidoran!" Kenny exclaims flashing his Pokedex and aiming it at the Pokémon.

"Nidoran; Number 032. The poison pin Pokémon. Its large ears are always kept upright. If it senses danger, it will attack with a poisonous sting. It stiffens its ears to sense danger. The larger its horns, the more powerful its secreted venom."

Sid looks around.

"What's wrong? Nidoran too dangerous?" Kenny asks trying to hold in a giggle.

A red mark goes through Sid's face.

"Hey, I don't want my Squirtle poisoned that's all! What level is it in anyway?"

Kenny looks at his Pokedex. "Level 3. It's a male in case you haven't noticed. The blue ones are the females. Don't forget to get information on the Pokémon!"

Sid takes out his Pokedex and records the data.

"Kenny, why don't you battle it?" Sid asks.

"Me?" Kenny remarks pointing to himself.

"Yeah dude! You have to make your Sandshrew powerful enough to evolve."

"I know that, but, what if I suck?"

"You won't! You're smart as hell! Besides, girls dig strong Pokémon!"

Kenny hesitantly takes out his Sandshrew.

"Ok then, go Sandshrew!" Kenny throws the Pokeball in the air, and his Sandshrew sparkles for a few seconds and it stops.

"Cool, it has all that special effects on it!" Sid cries out.

“Fascinating, I think Shiny Pokémon sparkle after you release it from its Pokeball.”

Sandshrew looks at Kenny and looks away with an angered expression.

"Don't tell me he's still mad at us?" Kenny said gloomily.

"Maybe, it still is. Hey, Sandshrew? You still mad little buddy?"

Sandshrew looks at Sid for a split second and looks away again.

Kenny walks up to it. "Don't be mad Sandshrew, we're sorry for scaring you, honestly."

The Pokémon looks at Kenny and then looks away again.

"Aw, it's hopeless," Kenny gives up.

Suddenly Sandshrew jumps on Kenny. They tumble over, Kenny laughing. Sandshrew was licking Kenny now.

Sid smiles.

He was looking at Kenny who had smile and was laughing, and for a moment, Sid felt peaceful. He was happy that Kenny felt happy. Sid suddenly felt himself blushing.

What the heck just happened?

Maybe he shouldn't have taken so many pain killers last night that scratch that Sandshrew gave them didn't hurt too much.

Kenny walks up to Sid holding Sandshrew on his arms.

"I'm ready to fight!" Kenny said smiling.

Sid stares at Kenny for two seconds.

"Oh, right! Yeah, I'll be rootin' for ya! Go and give him hell!"

Kenny notices his sudden respond, but ignores it and releases Sandshrew.

"Ok Sandshrew, get ready for your first battle!" Kenny cries.

Sid wasn't paying attention. He was asking himself why he felt that way when he saw Kenny.





~~~~~~Leaf

"So you're telling me, that the nearest grand shopping mall is in Celadon City?!" Leaf shouts at the PokeMart clerk.

"Well uh, sorry ma'am, all we have are supplies needed for your Pokémon Journey...."

Leaf brushes her hair to the man.

"Whatever, I'm fine with my awesome clothes anyway." Leaf storms out the PokeMart.

Ugh, that man was so annoying.

Leaf decides that Viridian was over, so she needs to continue on.

She walks to the gate.

The old man was still there. Leaf ignores him and walks on to Route 2.

It was getting late. The sun was starting to set.

Something catches her eye, an air balloon. It's so cute! With that Meowth cliché!

Leaf smiles to herself and wonders what her other Pokémon will be. She hopes to get another Pokémon soon. Or to even fight a Gym Leader soon. Maybe Leaf can make it to Pewter City by nightfall, she doesn't want to use her sleeping bag yet, it's way too early for that. She runs into Route 2 trying to at least hurry up and catch up to everyone else.





~~~~~~Satoshi and Misty

"Now, about my bike...." Misty said as she saw Satoshi's Pikachu crawl on his back and then land his shoulder.

"I'm really sorry; I'll make it to you soon!"

Misty crosses her arms.

"Oh you will alright, now that I don't have a bike, I'm going to follow you until you give me my bike dammit!"

Satoshi felt this sudden urge of running off now. He knows how much a bike costs, and he clearly doesn't have that much.

"Ok, ok! I'm off to Pewter City tomorrow, Misty! All we have to do is go to Cerulean!"

Misty walks away. "Good, there's a bike shop there anyway! You can buy me a bike there!"

Satoshi falls to the ground.

Pikachu looks at Satoshi and then at Misty. It then shakes its head.

"What are you looking at?" Satoshi tells Pikachu.

The yellow mouse giggles.

"Oh no!" the nurse cries.

Misty and Satoshi hurry to the desk. "What's wrong?" Satoshi asks.

"Look at the security cameras outside. You see that air balloon in the shape of a Meowth? That's been known to be Team Rocket!"

Satoshi looks confused.

"Who's Team Rocket?"



"Meowth! And when we snatch all their Pokémon, those scared little mice will know I'm the top cat! Ready Jessie? Ready James?"

The two rocket grunts ready their Pokeballs as they hover on top of the Pokémon Center.

"Ekans!"

"Koffing!"

"Attack!"

The Pokeballs burst through a window from the roof. The Pokeballs fall to the floor and the Pokémon come out.

Misty and Satoshi take a step back.

The nurse runs off to the back, and yells "I'll protect the Pokémon, hold them off until the Police comes!"

Satoshi and Misty exchange worried looks.

Suddenly the roof explodes, sending bits of concrete everywhere. Satoshi pulls Misty out of the way as the falling destruction almost kills her.

Misty had screamed, and they both fell to the floor.

Koffing!

Ekans!


The Koffing slides across the air and covers the Pokémon Center with thick brownish black smoke.

"Misty! Are you ok? What just happened?!"

Suddenly, Satoshi hears laughter.

"Don't be frightened, little boy!"

"Allow us to introduce ourselves!"

The smoke clears to reveal a woman with long crimson hair.

"Prepare for trouble!"

The smoke clears forward and a man with periwinkle hair holding a rose appears.

"And make it double!"

"To protect the world from devastation!"

"To unite all peoples within our nation!"

Now the smoke had cleared.

“To denounce the evils of truth and love!"

“To extend our reach to the stars above!"

"Jessie!"

"James!"

“Team Rocket, blast off at the speed of light!"

"Surrender now or prepare to fight!"

A Meowth falls in front of them.

"Meowth, that's right! Now listen up you little brats, we're here for the Pokémon, and Dratini! Now give them up, unless you want to end up scratched up!"

Satoshi helped Misty up.

"You guys don't make any sense! Why are you attacking a Pokémon Center?"

Misty starts to slowly pull Satoshi away as she stares into Ekans eyes. It hisses at her.

"You just don't get it. We want all your Pokémon. Now!" Jessie said.

"You're not taking Pikachu!" Satoshi yells as his Pokémon starts to let electricity from its red cheeks.

"We don't give a damn about you Pikachu! Now if you just surrender, and tell us were all the Pokémon are being held, we might just let you out of here alive!" Meowth shouts.

"Satoshi, let's go, they're crooks..." Misty said tugging on his shirt.

"So what? They bug me, we can take them!"

The Team Rocket trio smile.

"The boy's bugged?"

"How cute."

"Enough talking! Attack them you idiots!"

James and Jessie extend their arms.

"Koffing, attack!"

"Ekans go!"

Misty and Satoshi break into a run.

The nearly escaped a deadly strike from the Ekans who flew into some computers and the computers explode.

Koffing flies through the air and head-butts Misty to the floor, and she slides away.

"Misty!" Satoshi exclaims.

Satoshi helps her up and they try to run to the exit.

Meowth blocks their way.

"You can't escape from Meowth!"

The talking Pokémon jumps in the air and scratches Satoshi on his face, drawing blood. He screams covering his face.

"Look out!" Misty yells as she pushes Satoshi away. She jumps to the other side as Ekans flies into Meowth, and both Pokémon crash out the door. Meowth lets out a shrieking cry of pain. The Ekans hisses in anger.

Misty tries to run out, but Ekans blocked the way. She grabs Satoshi's hand and they run to the other room. Pikachu lets out a shock and shocks Meowth and Ekans.

"In here, quickly!" the nurse hisses.

They enter a room. It was filled with rows and rows of Pokeballs.

"What do we do?" Misty asks to the nurse.

"We have to transfer all the Pokeballs to the nearest Pokémon Center. It's in Pewter City."

The nurse turns on a computer. She types into a system.

"Hello? This is Viridian Pokémon Center! We have a Pokémon emergency! Transfer all the Pokémon out of here now!"

Suddenly the Pokeballs start to glow white and they start to disappear.

Out of nowhere, Koffing crashes through the door breaking the computer and scattering Pokeballs to the floor.

The nurse screams as the computer explodes.

"Oh no, the Pokeballs won't be able to transport!" she shouts.

Laughter can be heard.

"You are all trapped now. Just give it up." Meowth smiles.

The trio appear at the busted up door.

Ekans slithers its tail, rattling it.

"I guess we have to fight," Misty said.

"But Pikachu still isn't fully recovered!" the nurse panics.

"That's why I'm going to handle these clown myself! Go Starmie!"

Misty tosses her Pokeball to the floor. A purple star appears. It shakes off some water and stood tall and firm.

Heah! it cries.

"Ekans, use Poison Sting!" Jessie commands.

The snake Pokémon lunges forward.

"Starmie, Water Pulse!" A wave of water rushes out of the tip of Starmie's front side and the water breaks into four dashes of water. It hits Ekans that sends it hurling back towards the Team Rocket Trio. They get send out the door screaming.

Meowth, didn't get hit and quickly got ahold of some Pokeballs.

"James!" he cries out as he throws them to James who catches them.

He stuffs the Pokeballs in a bag.

"Hey, give them back!" Satoshi yells.

"Starmie, Swift!" Misty yells.

Heah!

Starmie spins rapidly and little star-like yellow objects fly towards the bag and it rips scattering the Pokeballs.

"No! Koffing, Toxic!"

Thick purple gas escapes out of the Pokémon and hits Starmie.

"No!"

Starmie gets a little bit darker, and it shakes violently and then it falls to the ground but gets back up.

"It's badly poisoned, you should just stop now little girl," James smirks.

"Water Pulse!" Misty yells and Starmie once again sends the villainous team sliding across the floor.

Pikapi! Pikachu cries out.

Satoshi turns around and sees that a lot of Pikachu were standing next to his own.

"What are they going to do?" Satoshi questions.

"Oh I get it, Pikachu, use ThunderShock!" the nurse exclaims.

Pikaaaaaaaaachuuuuu!!

There must have been at least 20 Pikachu doing the same move, the lightning bolt hits the Team Rocket Trio. The scream in pain. The electricity surges to the walls, and lights on the ceilings. Soon everyone was yelling out in pain, the electricity was overwhelming. Eventually, the electricity finds the power grid on the Pokémon Center.

And with an explosion that rocks the now night sky, there was no more Pokémon Center.





~~~~~~Sid and Kenny

"Did you see that light dude?" Sid asks Kenny as they were preparing their sleeping bags.

"Uh no. Maybe it was a meteor or something. We are in that season for meteor showers."

Sid frowns.

"It was too bright though, it looked it came from Viridian City."

Kenny sighs. "Ok, we'll check it out tomorrow if you insist."

Sid shakes his head. "Nah, you're probably right. Have a good night dude."

Sid covers himself up, still thinking about the light.

"You too Sid, pleasant dreams."









~~~~~~Leaf

ZZZzzzzz........ ZZZZzzzzzz..... ZZZZzzzz...... ZZZZZZZ!

Bulba was covering her ears. Leaf can sure snore loudly.









~~~~~~Red

He couldn't believe at what he just witnessed. The Pokémon Center exploded. Almost immediately he sees paramedics and ambulance on the scene as well as police officers. News casts appeared as well.

Red runs to go check out what happened. He sees some dead Pokémon on the floor, but no human bodies.

He sees that Blue had shown up.

"Woah, did you see when it exploded? It's a shame that all those Pokémon died. What a start for a journey."

Red doesn't look at Blue.

"What happened?" Red asked a police guard.

"Team Rocket struck again. We are unfortunate to lose a few Pokémon, but the nurse and the two other civilians are ok."

Red looks at the rubble. Poor Pokémon. They didn't deserve this.

"Team Rocket did this?"

"Yeah, they're a gang who steal Pokémon. They are always up to no good. If you see them, come and report them. If you're wondering how the building blew, the nurse combined the efforts of Pikachu to send them away, but all that power blew everything."

Red slowly nods his head. Team Rocket. He remembers his mother talking about them. Especially because of....

He walks up to one of the ambulance, Blue following nearby. He sees Satoshi and Misty getting treated by some paramedics.

"Satoshi! Misty! Are you guys ok?"

They look up.

"We're ok, but those Pokémon didn't make it."

Red looks back at the building.

"We're lucky to be alive. Team Rocket managed to escape," Misty explains.

"So this Team Rocket, did you battle them?" Blue asked.

"Yeah, they weren't too hard though."

Blue smirks.

"At least you can actually beat someone Satoshi," Blue remarks.

Satoshi growls and keeps his anger to himself.

Red on the other hand was staring at the building.

Why did a gang try to attack a Pokémon Center? They must have been looking for something valuable. But what?









~~~~~~Viridian City

The Boss was standing next to the Pokémon Gym. He petted his Persian.

Butch came into view.

They were staring at the destruction and all that drama down at the Pokémon Center.

"Well?" The Boss asks without looking at Butch.

"They'll find the body sooner or later at the house."

The Boss smiles.

Meowth casually walks up to The Boss.

"Did you get it?"

Meowth's coin shines and he smiles sinisterly.

"Right here Boss. Just like you said. Jessie and James already are planning to go after that Pikachu that you want."

The Boss' smile widens.

Meowth hands over the Pokeball.

"Go with those two Meowth."

Meowth looks at The Boss.

"But—"

The Boss smacks Meowth across the face. The poor Pokémon staggers to the floor.

"I hate buts Meowth. Now hurry your *** to Jessie and James. Don't disappoint me. Go!"

Meowth nods and walks off into the dark night.

PKMN Trainer
Hey guys, I'm back with the next chapter :) Enjoy!
Chapter 7: The Terror of Viridian Forest!
~~~~~~Sid and Kenny

Sid was admiring his amazing pecs and biceps. Girls run up to him and start to feel up his muscles. All the girls were happily feeling him up.

“Wow Sid, so much muscle!”

“I love how strong he is!”

Sid blushes and smiles widely. “Calm down ladies, one at a time!”

"Oh Siiiiiddd!" he hears someone call.

He looks to his right. His eyes turn to hearts immediately.

May was standing in his view wearing nothing but a red and blue bathing suit. Sid can feel his mouth drop to the floor, drool pouring out like a river.

"Sid, come help a little? I need lotion on my back. Would you?"

Sid pops up in front of her.

"Yes May?! Anything for you May!"

May giggles and Sid carries her up from her feet.

"Sid will you please....." May said bending her arm to her forehead showing her cleavage to Sid.

"YES?!"

May touches his left cheek.

"Sid.... wake up."

Sid looks confused. "Huh?"

May looks serious now. "Wake up. Wake up!"



Sid opens his eyes.

"What?" he said weakly looking up at Kenny who was covering his nose with a napkin that was all red.

Sid frowns and closes his eyes again.



"Sorry to wake you up, but Blue just passed us and well we're behind. He was um... very happy... very happy. I think he won Red in a battle or something. And um... you have an...."

Kenny clutches his napkin more as the blood gets wetter.

"I have a what?" Sid said leaning forward and rubbing his eyes.

Kenny looks away and points down at his sleeping bag.

"Huh?" Sid said and he looks down.

Sid's eyes darken in embarrassment.

".....Oh....."

Kenny blushes and walks up to his sleeping bag.

"It's ok Sid, those are normal......"

Kenny packs everything up.

Sid stands up and turns to another direction, covering his crotch.

"I'm sorry dude... I can't..." Sid can feel his face turn hot.

This is so awkward, Kenny thought. Well at least he got to see his....

Kenny's nose squirts out blood. Curse his mind!



After they finished packing up, they decide to continue their journey to the Viridian Forest. They walk pass some Pokémon in Route 2. Sid was staring at the Pokémon, his face red with embarrassment. Kenny saw his… He looks over and sees that Kenny was a little bit more farther up than he was.

Kenny on the other hand, was still thinking about earlier. He was wondering why Sid was in that condition. What dream could it have been? He knew that it had to be a dream… he read in a book about puberty…

Suddenly, something runs quickly from their view. It was like a darkened shadow.

"What the hell was that?!" Sid cries.

Kenny takes out his Pokedex. They wait for a while, but there was nothing coming out again.

Kenny looks around. What to do?

"Should we run?" Kenny asks.

"Maybe. How far are we from the form the forest?"

Kenny was taking his map out when suddenly a long silky string attaches to the map, and flies off to a tree.

He sees an Ariados. It was big too.

"Ah!" Kenny exclaims and he falls to the floor.

Sid looks at it. “Who’s that Pokémon?"

He flashes his Pokedex at it.

"Ariados; Number 168. The long leg Pokémon. It spins string not only from its rear but also from its mouth. It is hard to tell which end is which. Rather than making a nest in one specific spot, it wanders in search of food after darkness falls."

“Sid! Those things are highly dangerous in the wild! I suggest try slowly moving away…” Kenny says, as he crawls away slowly.

“It’s just a stupid Bug Type, Ken! What harm can it do?”

The Pokémon lunges at Sid who screams and runs away. He runs behind a tree, but the Ariados jumps on the trunk, and crawls around, trying to get Sid.

"Why is it attacking me?!"

He runs off into Route 2. The Pokémon follows.

"Sid wait!"

As Kenny was running, he saw other people's footsteps. Could it be that others had gone inside the Viridian Forest?

He kept running, trying his best to catch up to Sid who despite being chubby, he sure can fast faster than a Dodrio.









~~~~~~Satoshi and Misty

"WWWAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!" Misty hides behind Satoshi.

"Whoa, what's the matter Misty?" Satoshi asks looking scared.

"Look, over there!" Misty exclaims.

Satoshi looks and sees a Caterpie. It slowly was crawling across the grass.

"Cool, it's a Caterpie! Why are you scared Misty? It's a Bug Type."

Misty still was hiding behind Satoshi.

"Even if it is a Pokémon, bugs are disgusting, and I don't like them! Do something, capture it or something, anything!"

Satoshi laughs. "What happened to big ol' tough Misty back in Viridian City huh?"

Misty looks at Satoshi. Her eyes became ablaze.

"ARE YOU GOING TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT OR NOT?!?"

Satoshi takes a few steps back.

"Ok, ok just stop screaming. This is a piece of cake. Caterpie, you're mine!" He flips his hat on his head and throws the Pokeball at Caterpie.

It took about 15 seconds, but Satoshi caught a Caterpie!

Satoshi starts to jump up and down and whirls Misty around. Pikachu gets a little dizzy and falls to the ground.

Misty looks away. "It takes a worm to love a worm."

Satoshi takes his tongue out at her. "Haha. Very funny. Hey Pikachu!" The yellow mouse springs up.

"Hey, we got a new friend!"

Pikachu cheers.

"From now on, we'll catch a whole bunch of new friends! Caterpie, you're sticking with us."

Misty looks petrified. "Does that mean...."

"Caterpie, come on out!"

Misty runs away as the bug Pokémon comes right out.

Caterpie looks at Satoshi, but then he sees Misty. It rushes over to her and starts to rub itself on her.

Misty exclaims, "Get this disgusting bug away from me!"

Satoshi laughs.

"Hey, I think Caterpie likes you."

Misty backs away and grabs Pikachu. "You keep Caterpie, and I'll keep Pikachu."

Pikachu smiles and enjoys Misty petting him.

"Whatever Misty, let's go Caterpie."

The bug looks sad and climbs to Satoshi's shoulder. They continue their way through the forest while Pikachu follows.

"Wait for me!" Misty yells but keeps her distance from Satoshi and Caterpie.

"Why are you still following us?" Satoshi asks.

"M-My bike! You have to pay up for my bike! And this is the fastest way through the forest!"

Satoshi shakes his head, but is glad that Misty is coming along.









~~~~~~Red

Red went over the features of his Pokedex. It’s a weird device, he wonders why Prof. Oak would give him an empty Pokedex if he spent so much of his life researching Pokémon. He finds the page about Charmander. He reads his Pokémon's entries out loud.

"From the time it is born, a flame burns at the tip of its tail. Its life would end if the flame were to go out. The flame at the tip of its tail makes a sound as it burns. You can only hear it in quiet places. Whoa, I gotta be careful with Charmender, don't want my Pokémon to die."

He exits the gate and is suddenly surrounded by a dark eerie forest. He can hear the leaves rattle in the background. He can even hear some Pokémon crying out in the distance.

Well, this place isn’t creepy at all. Red spots a boy with a straw hat holding a big net. He walks up to a kid.

"Hey, do you know where the exit for the forest is?"

The kid tells him that the exit is to his right. "But watch out for my friends, they're itching for a fight!"

Red smiles at that.

Pokémon Battles.

Imagine all the kids he could fight.

"Thanks!" Red said as he went on.

He's only fought against Blue at this point, and he won once and lost once. He went through Route 22 after the whole Viridian City explosion thing happened, and that’s where he and Blue fought again, only this time he lost… Maybe he could actually beat other people.

That kid looked like a Bug Catcher, so maybe he might actually be able to beat them with Charmander. He also has the Bulbasaur that the Professor gave him. Maybe he might actually make it through the forest.

However, there was something that Red didn't notice as he walked through the forest. A Pokémon was watching him, and had evil intentions. Very evil intentions.









~~~~~~Leaf and Blue

Leaf readied her stance. The Nidoran growls at her.

“Go Bulba!”

In the distance, Blue was watching her battle. He studied her way off battling. Wow, she even battles cute. They was she jumps whenever she gets a good hit. Blue blushes and shakes the thought out of his head. He secretly passes Leaf and rushes to the gate to Viridian Forest.

"Bulba, use Tackle!"

The Bulbasaur tackles the Nidoran to the floor, and it wobbles a bit.

Leaf cheers. Can she still catch it?

Leaf summons her Pokeball and throws it at the Nidoran.

The ball shakes, and then it stops. Some confetti pops out

"Did I get it?" she wonders.

She walks up to it. She smiles and carries it up.

"I did it! I caught my first Pokémon! I did it, I did it!"

She jumps up and down as her Pokedex sounds off twice. She looks at her Pokedex.

Bulba was now in Level 7!

She returns her Bulbasaur.

"Great job. Now, time to get some info on Nidoran." She aims her Pokedex at the Nidoran.

"Nidoran, Number 029. The Poison Pin Pokémon. Though small, it must be treated with caution because of its powerfully toxic barbs. The female has smaller horns. While it does not prefer to fight, even one drop of the poison it secretes from its barbs can be fatal."

Leaf swallows hard. Whoa, this thing could kill with one drop of venom? Either it's overpowered, or the Pokedex was lying.

Leaf begins to twirls around and she trips. She smiles. "Time for me to catch another Pokémon!"

She runs to the building that leads to Viridian Forest. She passes a girl talking on her PokeGear about Rattata's bite. There was a lady blocking the door to the forest.

"Are you going to Viridian Forest? It's a natural maze in there. Be careful, don't get lost."

Leaf smiles at her and enter the forest. "It's not so scary," Leaf told herself.

"BOO!"

"AAAHH!"

Blue starts to laugh.

Leaf blushes. "What the heck Blue!"

Blue continues to laugh.

"I got you good Leaf. Or should I say Melody."

Leaf blushes even more.

"Don't say my middle name you loser! What do you even want?"

Blue looks hurt. "I just came to show you this."

Blue flashes a case, and it held a badge.

Leaf's mouth drops to the floor.

"You got the Boulder Badge?!? Does that mean you defeated Brock?"

Blue smirks.

"Of course I did. It was all piece of cake. With my Squirtle, I single handled fainted all his Pokémon," Blue said proudly.

"What Pokémon does he have?" Leaf curiously asked.

"I'm not telling anything. You'll find out when you get there."

Leaf was unsatisfied. "Come on Blue, please!"

Leaf jumps in front of him and wraps her arms around his neck. Blue couldn't hold back his blush as her faces was inches from his own.

"Ok, ok! I'll tell you! Just stop!" Blue panics.

Leaf lets go, and inside her mind she's cheering. She held Blue. She HELD Blue.

"He's special in rock type. I mean the name really gives out the clue. Brock is a ROCK trainer."

Leaf smiles. "Thanks Blue. Now all I have to do, is get through the forest. How many Pokémon do you have Blue? I have two."

Blue smirks again. He closes his eyes and raises his hand in a cockish way. "I have four. My starter, Pidgey, Rattata, and Eevee."

Leaf gasped. "You have an Eevee?"

Blue nods his head. "I got it walking around. It will most likely be better than any other Pokémon."

Leaf nods her head. Wow, he actually is doing better than anyone in Pallet... God, he’s so hot.

"If you want a faster way down the forest, keep following that path here and then take a right. You'll get to Pewter City in no time."

Leaf smiles wider. "Thanks again Blue. See ya!" Leaf runs of into the forest.

Blue smiles. Helping a hot girl, check. Time to get follower girls, check. Beating Red, check. All he needs now is to go to Cerulean City.....









~~~~~~Sid and Kenny

"What the hell was that thing's problem?" Sid exclaims as he ran out of breath. Kenny caught up.

"Did it leave?" Kenny asks looking around. It really was gone.

"Yeah, that little prick. What now?"

Kenny was about to take out his map, but... "AAAHH! That Ariados took the map!"

Sid looks at the ground. He examines the floor. He knees down and felt the tracks.

"Those look like the tracks of the Ariados. Let's go after it." Sid runs off.

"Wait up Sid!"

Sid comes to a stop and Kenny crashes into him and he falls.

"Ouch."

"Sorry Ken. Look around for that ugly *** Pokémon. I have a bone to pick with that thing!" Sid looks around the floor for more tracks. That's strange, they stopped.

“Sid, I’m amazed that you looked for tracks. I find it interesting.”

Sid blushes and rubs the back of his head. “Well when you’re dating a professor’s daughter, you get their habits you know?”

Kenny’s eyes widen and look at Sid.

“You mean to tell me, that May is Prof. Birch’s daughter?! I always thought he had a son. Fascinating… You two seem… happy together.”

Sid was about to say something but he would rather not.

Kenny and Sid continue to look for the tracks. Nothing appeared.

"Are you sure this is a good idea? I mean, I think I remember going through here with my brother once..." Kenny’s voice trails off.

"We'll be lost dude! We have to find it! Maybe it jumped somewhere. Kenny?" Sid looks back and sees that Kenny was looking up at the trees.

"Kenny what're you looking at?"

He looks up and gasps.

A bunch of Spinarak and Ariados were looking down at them.

"I forgot about the nests...." Kenny whispers.

"Run!" Sid yells.

They start to run away.

The Pokémon were close behind.

"What do we do?!?" Sid yells as they ran deeper into the forest.

"They're going to eat us!" Kenny yells.

They jump over a log which actually connected to a steep hill, and they rolled all the way down hurting themselves. They’re covered in dirt and leaves now.

"Ouch," Kenny complains as he adjusts his glasses. Sid pulls him up and pushes him to run.

The Pokémon were still after them.

"What do we do?!" Sid yells again.

Kenny looks around and sees a clearing. He runs into it, Sid follows.

They see a house. They go in and slam the door.

"This is too much for me! It hasn't even been a week, and we're facing life and death!" Kenny exclaims.

"Calm down, Ken! We have no choice but to battle them, go Squirtle!"

Sid throws his Pokeball. His Squirtle comes out.

Kenny releases Sandshrew. His Sandshrew sparkles for a few seconds.

"What do we do now? My Sandshrew is at Level 6. Your Squirtle is at Level 7. We'll never make it!" Kenny whines.

"Kenny, listen to me, we can do this!" Sid said trying to calm him down.

The Spinarak enter through the windows.

"Squirtle, use Aqua Jet!" Streams of water hit the coming Bug Pokémon. They are thrown elsewhere.

"Sandshrew, attack using Scratch!" Kenny instructs.

Sandshrew began to attack any Spinarak that came near.

"Dammit!" Sid said as he began to punch the Pokémon with his bare fists now.

Kenny found a broom and began to fight them off as well.

"There's too many! What do they want?!?"

Kenny sends a Spinarak flying away. That's when he remembered.

Sid insulted the Ariados.

"Sid, you have to apologize, you offended the Ariados!”

Sid punches a Pokémon away. "Are you freaking kidding me dude?!”

Kenny kicks a Spinarak.

"They're attacking because of that! Do it before they get a lucky bite!"

Sid screams his apology, and all the Bug Pokémon stop. As soon as they heard, they all left.

Kenny gave a sigh of relief. He sits on a chair.

“I’m done for today. We should just rest here. Maybe the owner of the place will be here soon.”

"That was so close. We could've died," Sid said as he petted his Squirtle.

"Don't think you're safe now little boy," said a voice.

Kenny and Sid whirl around.

They see a man and a woman standing there looking at them.

"What the hell? Who are you?" Sid questions.



"Check your eyes and prepare for trouble!" the woman said.

"We'll get the prize, so make it double!" the man said raising a flower.

"To protect the world from its own greed!"

"To steal all the treasure that they don't need!"

"To work every heist like there are none other!"

"And split the spoils with one another!"

"Jessie!"

"James!"

"Thieves return under the cover of day and night!"

“Surrender now or prepare to fight!"

A Meowth falls in front of them. "Meowth that's right!"

Kenny and Sid exchange looks.

"Are we being filmed? Are we getting P’unked?" Sid asks. Kenny shrugs.

"This is no television cartoon, manga, or game kid!" Jessie angrily remarks.

"This isn't even a fan fiction!" James said.

"What are these guys talking about Ken? You know them?" Sid questions with confusion.

"No. They must be my father's friends I suppose, he does have weird friends," Kenny answers.

"Shut up you too. Where's that Satoshi boy, we're looking for him. That Pikachu he has could be quite useful," Meowth smiles and his teeth twinkle.

"Is it me or is that Meowth talking?" Kenny said adjusting his glasses.

"Never mind that! Where's Satoshi so we can steal his Pikachu!"

Sid and Kenny exchange worried looks.

"You're actually members of Team Rocket aren't you?" Kenny said looking at the symbols on their chest.

"Yes. We are. Now where are they or prepare for trouble."

Sandshrew stands in front of Kenny, Squirtle does the same to his own trainer.

"Ok then, Ekans go!"

"Koffing attack!"

The two Pokémon came out of their Pokeballs.

"Ekans, use Poison Sting!" Darts start to come out of Ekans and nearly hit Squirtle who dodged it.

"Squirtle, use Tackle!" Sid shouts in anger.

Squirtle tackles Ekans which sends it hurling to Jessie.

"Koffing, use Poison Gas attack!" James exclaims pointing at Sandshrew.

Black smoke came off from Koffing and consumes Sandshrew. Kenny's Pokémon doesn't even flinch.

"What?" James exclaims.

"Poison doesn't do that much damage to Ground Types, Sandshrew, use Scratch!"

Sandshrew jumps in the air and scratches Koffing to the floor. It bounces and lands on James’ head.

"We're losing the fight!" Meowth said backing away.

"Meowth's right. It's time to be blasting off."

The trio carried they're Pokémon away.



"Did we just win our first Pokémon Battle?" Kenny said scratching his nose.

There was a ding. Kenny looks at his Pokedex.

"Sandshrew went to the next level!" he cries out.

Sid looks at his Pokedex. "Squirtle needs a few more experience points. Then he'll be in Level 8. Who's Team Rocket? Why did they attack us?"

Kenny sits down on an old and creaky chair.

"I read in an article about Team Rocket. They're this gang that steal people's Pokémon. They're dangerous; they've also been known to kill people. But those too didn't look too serious, I suppose that maybe they're wannabes. But Team Rocket is also known for genetically creating a Pokémon about ten years ago."

Sid looks at Kenny, he was clearly interested.

"They made a Pokémon? Dude, isn’t that like illegal? Which one was it?"

Kenny looks at the roof.

"Yes it is illegal. They made a Pokémon that they called Mewtwo. Apparently, the Team Rocket boss was trying to create a very strong Pokémon based on the Legendary Pokémon: Mew. He succeeded, but at the cost of many Team Rocket members. It became unstable, so Mewtwo escaped, and there was only one survivor. Mewtwo killed them all. Except for one. Do you know who that was?"

Sid shakes his head.

"Red's father."

Sid's eyes widen. "No way! That guy you pointed out the other day?”

Kenny nods his head.

"He confessed almost everything, but then he was killed in prison. He didn't even have time to say who the Team Rocket Boss was. He said that the Boss was in front of our noses the whole time, but he was very secretive. He explained the events on which happened in Cinnabar Island. On the Pokémon Mansion. They captured Mew and tortured it. They got DNA, and they cloned it. Mewtwo was made. The Boss controlled Mewtwo, but Mewtwo had enough. One day in the lab, Mewtwo killed everyone except for Red's father. Even Red's dad didn't know why Mewtwo spared him, but he said that Mewtwo looked deep into his soul and saw something special. I guess Mewtwo was right."

Sid stayed quiet as he heard the story.

"Ever since, Mewtwo was added to the Pokedex. Of course everything in there is just speculation. No one has ever seen it battle or anything. Some people say that he is somewhere in Kanto, waiting for the right moment to strike back. Other than that that's all that I know."

Sid swallows hard. “That’s scary as hell dude. How did you even find out about this? Does Red know about his dad?”

Kenny shrugs. “Honestly, I don’t know. Not many know of the story. It’s been buried deep into Kanto’s history. I asked once about it to Prof. Oak, and he told me to never mention it again. So it must be real. If Red knows the story, then that would explain why he was always so quiet in Trainer School. The truth, however, of whatever happened will never be told.”



Jessie, James, and Meowth listened to their conversation.

"Could it be true? What he's all saying?" James asks.

"Maybe, but we can't ask the Boss, he'll end us in less than two minutes. Meowth, do you know if this is true?" Jessie asked.

Meowth was looking at the ground remembering that awful day...

The fire that spread everywhere. How he didn't know how to speak Human yet, and how Mewtwo saved him, and how he threw him to Giovanni. Ever since that day, Giovanni has had Meowth by his side. Meowth even learned how to speak because of Giovanni. He is his master.

"Meowth?"

The Pokémon looks at him.

"If I were you two, I would shut my mouths. The boss doesn't want to hear about you guys talking behind his back right? So I would suggest to shut up, and drop the subject."

Meowth walks off into the forest.

Jessie and James exchange looks. Then they hurry after Meowth.





~~~~~~Satoshi and Misty

Misty was walking away from Satoshi. He manages to capture a Pidgeotto, and Caterpie evolved into Metapod. And now, he wants to get a Weedle? Why does he love Bug Types so much?

Misty hears something and turns around to see a long katana in front of her nose.

"Greetings maiden, are you by chance the Pokémon Trainer from Pallet?"

Misty shakes her head violently. "No, that's not me!" she cries.

The boy puts his katana away.

"Alas, my search continues. I advise you to refrain from further shrieking while passing through this forest. Unless your goal is to attract a horde of Beedrill." The boy leaves on.

What a weird kid, Misty thought. Wait....

Satoshi is from Pallet!

Misty runs after the boy.





~~~~~~ Red

"Go, Weedle!" Bug Catcher Rick cries.

He throws the Pokeball and a Weedle comes out.

"Weedle?" Red questions. He takes out his Pokedex.

"Weedle; Number 013. The hairy bug Pokémon. Often found in forests, eating leaves. It has a sharp venomous stinger on its head. Beware of the sharp stinger on its head. It hides in grass and bushes where it eats leaves."

Red smiles. "Go, Charmander!"

His Pokémon bursts out smiling and doing a front flip as he fell to the ground.

"Weedle, Poison Sting!"

The Weedle flies forward and stabs Charmander on its chest, drawing purple liquid and blood. The Charmander shakes a little and Red notices that Charmander even turned a little purple.

"Charmander, use Scratch!"

Charmander runs up to it, and scratches it, sending it back a few inches.

"Weedle, String Shot!"

Silk wraps around Charmander, and Red's Pokémon stagers back.

"Use Scratch again!"

Charmander does a front flip and scratches it.

The Weedle faints and Rick returns it.

There was a little ding, and Red realized it was from his Pokedex. Charmander was in Level 7. Red saw that Charmander had learned a new move too, Ember.

Rick sent out Caterpie!

"Charmander, use Ember!"

Charmander spins his tail, and fire comes right off and hits Caterpie.

The poor Pokémon didn't have time to react. It faints easily. Red raises his fist in the air.

"Oh yeah!" he exclaims.

The Bug Catcher looks gloom, but hands over $72.

"Thanks," Red said smiling, but it fades when he sees Rick's face.

"Hey, cheer up, you just have to train harder."

Rick looks up. "I guess.... maybe I will."

The Bug Catcher waves goodbye and leaves.

Red looks around. He sees Charmander eating a berry.

"Whatya eating Charmender?" Red asked.

Charmender holds up the berry.

Char, Char!

Red looks at it. "As long as it doesn't hurt you, it's ok to eat."

Charmander eats it.

Red smiles. Charmander was a good choice. He wouldn't want any other Pokémon as a starter. At least that old man from Viridian taught him how to catch a Pokémon properly. He can then catch his own Pokémon later.

Red hears a sudden buzzing.

He looks at the sky. He gasps as he notices a bunch of Beedrill flying towards him. He hears a scream and he turns to sees Charmander gat taken away by a Beedrill.

The Beedrill almost manage stab him, but he rolls away.

"No Charmander! Use Ember!"

The Beedrill and Charmander get surrounded by fire, and both Pokémon fall to the ground. Charmander shook its head while the Beedrill fainted.

"Charmander, are you ok?" Red questions.

Charmander looks at its tail and nods.

The Beedrill didn't leave, instead, they all zoomed towards Red and Charmander.

"Run!" Red yells. Charmander and Red run off into the forest as the Beedrill go after them.





~~~~~~Sid and Kenny

" I just heard Red's voice right now." Kenny said stopping.

Sid stops and looks at Kenny. "You did? Is he near? We have to tell him about Team Rocket. All I can hear is this horrible buzzing right now though."

Kenny starts to hear it too.

The buzzing kept getting stronger and stronger.

Suddenly a Beedrill appears in front of Kenny.

He screams and jumps on Sid who carries him like a bride.

Sid can feel a blush coming on, but then he sees ten Beedrill come up in front of them. One of them was green too! They all looked angry.

"Holy crap!" Sid yells.

The Beedrill charged, aiming their pointy stings at them.

Sid and Kenny scream.

Still carrying Kenny, they run off into the forest.





~~~~~~Leaf

"Those screams are scaring the hell out of me," Leaf said to herself, her hands scrounged together to her chest.

"Leaf, look out!"

Leaf turns around and sees Sid carrying Kenny and they were both running towards her. They both crash and fall.

"OW! What are you two doing?!"

"Beedrill!"

“Beedrill?”

Leaf takes out her Pokedex. "A new Pokémon?" Leaf asks.

She looks at the attacking Pokémon. Sid pulls her down just in time to save her from a sting.

"Beedrill; Number 015. The poison bee Pokémon. It flies at high speed and attacks using the large venomous stingers on its forelegs and tail. May appear in a swarm. Flies at violent speeds, all the while stabbing with the toxic stinger on its rear."

Leaf gets up and runs away. “Nice meeting you, bye!”

"Hey, wait up!" Sid yells as he runs after her.

"Don't forget about me!" Kenny cries.

He gets up, but is tumbled over by a Pokémon. Kenny hits himself on a tree log, and is knocked out cold. The Pokémon stares at Kenny and roars at the Beedrill which made them fly away. The Pokémon carries Kenny on its back, and they both disappear into the forest.







~~~~~~Satoshi and Misty

They took a deep breath of relief. They turn to Samurai.

“You idiot, look what you did! You could’ve killed us! You should’ve left that Weedle alone!”

Satoshi and Misty exchange looks. They hear a buzzing and they turn to a tree. It was enormous. It held some Pokémon.

Samurai looks at the tree closely. A bunch of Pokémon were stuck to a tree. He realized what it was.

"A whole hive of Kakunas!"

Misty gives a small yell in fear. Satoshi takes out his special Pokedex that was green, blue, red, and yellow.

"Kakuna, a transitional stage between Weedle and Beedrill. Kakunas remain inactive until they evolve into deadly Beedrills and hatch."

Satoshi looks at the tree holding all the Kakuna. He then sees a familiar looking Pokémon.

"Hey, look over there, it's Metapod!"

Misty covers his mouth. "Are you stupid? You'll wake them up!" she hisses.

It was too late, the Kakuna look at them. Their eyes shine red.

The three trainers freeze.

They begin to glow, and to their horror, they evolve into Beedrill.

"They-they evolved!" Misty exclaims.

The Beedrill start their wings.

They scream and they run away. The Beedrill were close behind. Samurai locates his cabin. They go inside, and hide. The Beedrill strike the door, and when they realized that they can't get in, they left.

"What happened to my cabin?!" Samurai exclaims.

Satoshi notices that the whole place was wrecked, as if a Pokémon Battle had taken place there. He even sees a few weird looking green Bug Types on the floor, fainted.

"I hope you learned your lesson loser, you letting that Weedle escaped could've caused us our lives!" Samurai exclaims.

"Take that back!" Satoshi remarks.

"I do take it back, because even a loser wouldn't leave their Pokémon like you did!"

Satoshi was taken back. "I tried to save Metapod...."

Samurai looks away.

"Your Metapod will pay for its trainer's inexperience. The other trainers from Pallet weren't so ignorant."

Satoshi looks at Samurai.

"You mean you fought the other trainers?"

Samurai smiles and sits down.

"Ah, there were three spectacular matches. First there was Red. He defeated me easily with his Charmander. Although he was prepared, someone had told him that I was itching for Pokémon Battles. Then there was Leaf, she used Bulbasaur, and she defeated me. Then there was Blue. He was better than all of them. I lost in just two hits, I didn't even get to attack. Each one inspired me to redouble my own training. Until I could finally beat the other trainers from Pallet. Unfortunately, one of them was you. I can't wait to find the other two from Pallet, and make sure that those two are worth the battle."

Misty stands up looking mad. "So that's why you were after Satoshi! You wanted to win him in a battle!"

Samurai gets up. "Compared to those other three, Satoshi is a joke!"

Satoshi looks away mad. “I’m no joke…”

“You may look like Red, but you sure lack the skill!”

Satoshi walks away. Misty faces Samurai.

“You know, you don’t have to be an *** about it!” She walks off to Satoshi and Pikachu.



That night, all Satoshi can think about was how Metapod was doing. Misty and Samurai were fast asleep, and so was Pikachu. All he could do was hope now. He closes his eyes, and he falls asleep.

Just as he fell asleep, Sid and Leaf were shouting out for Kenny, who still has not appeared yet.

“I hope he’s ok, he’s been gone all day!” Sid said worriedly.

“I’m surprised that you two are like even traveling together. It’s like, why would you even travel with him?” Leaf said as she started making her sleeping bag.

Sid looks over at Leaf. “What do you mean? Kenny’s a chill dude, I like him.”

Leaf’s head shoots up. “You do?”

“Yeah, he’s kinda hard to understand sometimes, but he’s a good traveling partner.”

Leaf smiles to herself. “I guess. We’ll search tomorrow morning. Until then, night Sid.”

Kenny on the other hand, was staring at his captor.

Kenny has never seen this Pokémon before, and he thought it was Stantler. He faints again.





~~~~~~Kenny

Kenny woke up again. He saw something green staring at him. It was a Pokémon obviously, but he had never seen one like this one.

It curiously looked at Kenny and sleeps right next to him. Kenny doesn't know if he should panic or if he should pet it.

Kenny decides to look around his surroundings. He was inside a large tree he noticed. He was lying down on soft leaves. Suddenly he sees that big Pokémon that he saw last night before he fainted.

"It's you!" Kenny exclaims backing up into the tree's trunk.

Don't fear me human.

Kenny gets surprised. "You can talk! Well telekinetically, but I can listen to you!"

I am no danger. I am sorry for hurting you yesterday, but I needed some supplies to heal my son. We have run out of Oran Berries here in the forest.

Kenny looks at the little snoring green Pokémon. "That's ok I guess. You also saved me from those Beedrill huh?"

Yes. My Deerling and I have been traveling, and he got hurt by a mischievous Pokémon. It won't leave us alone, and my time is coming to an end.

Kenny looked confused. "What do you mean by time? You're not... dying... are you?"

The Pokémon slowly nods. Kenny felt his heart break in two.

I need your help. Please take my son with you on your Pokémon journey. He is very young, but knows a few things about battling.


Again Kenny is left heartbroken again.

"Why? Why me?"

I sense that you will do the right thing. Protect him from that Pokémon please. I will remain here for the rest of my days. Before you go on, take this.


The Pokémon hands over a green rock.

It is an emerald from my trainer. Keep it. My son loves that rock a lot.

Kenny takes the emerald and digs it into his bag. He takes out his Premier Ball. It’s time to use this… He presses it gently on Deerling and he goes inside the Premier Ball. The mother Pokémon rests next to Kenny.

Thank you. Close the entrance to the tree. It's not too hard.

Kenny exits the tree.

"I don't know your name...."

The Pokémon smiles. Sawsbuck is what they call me. As for now, please go on. Take care of my son. He will understand what has happened. Goodbye, Kenny.

The Sawsbuck closes her eyes and rests on leaves.

Kenny quietly closes the giant wooden door that led inside the tree. He stares at it for a while, and continues his Pokémon journey with Deerling.

He looks at the Premier Ball. He caught a Pokémon that he never even knew existed. And Sawsbuck…

Kenny wipes a tear off his face and walks through the forest.





~~~~~~Sid and Leaf

Leaf picks up her Pokeball.

"Is catching that Caterpie really necessary right now? Kenny is still out there!" Sid cries out.

"I know, but it's Kenny. You don't know him as I do. He's smart enough to handle himself out there. He's the one who remembered all the Pokémon Types back in Trainer School. He's also the one who named 53 Pokémon. So don't think that he's not smart enough to handle himself out there."

Leaf sits on a log and polishes her Pokeball. Sid sits next to her.

"Why are you even traveling with him anyway? Why not go alone in Kanto?" Leaf asks looking at him closely.

"I thought he looked cool enough to travel. I think someone like him could actually be of help since I don’t know Kanto at all. He’s more of my guide, and really I want to enter the Pokémon League. He and I are helping each other," Sid said.

Leaf closely looks at Sid.

Could it be? Leaf wasn't sure.

"Well Kenny is a good person to be around. He knows what he's doing."

Sid nods. "He's very shy though."

Leaf smiles. "You noticed too? He can be very geeky at times too."

Sid nods. He suddenly remembers how he carried Kenny away from the Beedrill. That somehow made him blush.

Leaf noticed. Now she was positive. She smiles wider and stands up.

"Well, I have to go on, Blue is already beating us."

This shocked Sid.

"What about Kenny?" Sid asked.

His reaction is so cute, Leaf thought. He's worried about him.

"You'll find him sooner or later. Well gotta go, bye!" And Leaf hurries off.

Sid is left dumbfounded.





~~~~~~Red

Those Beedrill had stopped yesterday, but now he had another problem.

Pika!

The furry Pikachu sent out another electric attack, and this time Bulbasaur faints.

"Bulbasaur return. Go Charmander!"

His starter comes out with a small roar. The furry Pikachu smiles and dashes towards Charmander.

"Charmander, use Scratch!"

The Pikachu was too fast!

It uses ThunderShock, and Charmander shakes as sparks fly out of him.

The Pikachu then jumps on Red. It smiles as Red begins to panic.

Pikachu! The Pikachu zaps Red.

He screams in pain.

The Pikachu jumps off, and Red is left with burned clothes. He stares at the trees for a while before he falls.

The Pikachu giggles.

The Charmander gets mad. It charges at Pikachu which runs away.

Pikachu looks at Charmander, and gives him the finger.

Charmander gets madder.

"Just let it go Charmander, it's not worth it," Red said as he lays on the floor. Charmander stares at Pikachu running away.

Red gets up. "Return Charmander," Red said.

He walks down the path and sees a building that leads to Pewter City. He felt a little jolt come from within him. That electric attack surely hurt. From the corner of his eye, he can see a Bug Catcher go up to him.

"Hey wait up! What's the hurry? Why the rush?" Red hears a Bug Catcher say.

"I'm in no mood to fight right now, so leave me alone before you go crying home to your mother because my Charmander defeated all your stupid Bug Types!" Red yells at the poor kid.

The kid looks scared and nods his head swiftly. Red continues on and enters the building to Pewter City.

He will get his revenge on that Pikachu someday. For now, all he wants to do is sit down.

The Pikachu on the other hand was watching Red go through the gate. It smiles and hopes from a tree to another.





~~~~~~Satoshi and Misty

"Finally! We can now go to Pewter City!" Misty said giving a sigh of relief.

Satoshi smiles at Pikachu that was on his shoulder.

"I'm happy that Metapod evolved. Now I have a Butterfree! Did you see how Butterfree set all those Beedrill to sleep? Now that was cool! Also Team Rocket was on there too, making it sweeter! Time to reach Pewter City!"

Satoshi was so excited he ran forward to the clearing.

Misty follows closely. "Hey, wait up Satoshi!"

And together they continued their way to the next town.





~~~~~~Kenny and Sid

He walked to what appeared to be an endless road. He finally heard Sid's voice. Kenny runs up to him.

Sid looks pissed.

"Kenny! Where the hell where you?! I thought you died or something, I was so worried!"

Sid couldn't help realize that he sounded too worried. A blush mark escapes his face.

Kenny shows him the Premier Ball.

"You left to capture a Pokémon!?!" Sid said looking at it with anger.

"Please don’t yell, those horrible Beedrill could still be out there. And no, not really.... here sit down, it's a long story."

They sit and as Kenny explains the story to Sid. Leaf was looking at them from a distance. She was right. They are totally going to fall in love. There's no doubt. Especially the way Sid reacted. They were meant to journey together, how cute! Leaf adjusts her hat. Well her time here is up. Viridian Forest is over. Time to fight Brock!

Leaf runs off.

"Oh. Hell then, I'm glad you're ok then. There's nothing we can do for Sawsbuck?" Kenny puts the Premier Ball away.

"No. You seemed too worried...." Kenny said under his breath.

"So, are we going to complete the Pokedex?" Sid said.

Kenny nods his head. "That's the plan. I also was thinking, the next Gym Leader is Brock. You have the advantage to win. Rock isn't very effective to Ground Types too. So consider this a great lead."

This made Sid smile.

"Well what are we waiting for? Let's go to Pewter City right now!"

Sid gets up. Kenny adjusts his glasses.

"Shall we?"

Sid nods his head.

They both casually walk out the forest and followed a path.

Sid sets his arm on Kenny’s shoulder and together walk through the forest until they reach the gate to Pewter City.

Something was staring at them however. It wanted to hurt them; it wants them to stay on the floor, and to stop breathing. It wanted them dead. It can smell the Deerling. It wants it dead.





~~~~~~Somewhere in Kanto

The Boss was staring at his reflection from the window.

"So your plans are to get rid of all the sea in this planet right?"

The Team Magma grunts look at each other.

"That's the stupidest thing I have ever heard. You both disgust me. I've decided now, I'm going to kill one of you right now. The other one that lives, go tell your boss to stay away from Kanto, if not things won't end well for him. Now both of you give me your Pokeballs."

The Team Magma grunts said nothing as they threw the Pokeballs to The Boss' feet.

The Boss raises a gun and shoots a Team Magma member on the head. Blood squirts all over the other Team Magma member who looked scared out of his mind.

"Domino, Viper, clean up the mess. As for you, get the hell out of my region. There can only be one main gang here, and that's Team Rocket. Tell Maxie, to go follow his stupid dreams on his own region. I already have my hands filled with Team Dim Sun and Team Cipher. If you want to get involved into more gang wars, go ahead and do something stupid. Now get the hell out of my face. And stay in Hoenn with Team Aqua."

The grunt runs away into the dark. He turns back and smiles evilly.

“Oh Team Rocket, you’re in for a surprise.” He runs off.

Ariana walks up to The Boss.

"We need to talk," she said. The Boss looks at her.

"If it's about him, no."

The Boss said nothing else and walks off into the darkness as well.

Ariana looks at him walk away.

When will he realize that he needs to be around Silver more?

Despite the consequences.

Hey everyone! I'm here with a new post, this time it's a flashback! Hope you enjoy!

PokéFlashback #1: Trainer School Drama!
~~~~~~ One Year Ago

Kenny read in his book. He was reading a drama about a man who has journeyed many lands to try and find his wife who was stolen by a villainous team who snatch Pokémon and had stolen his wife for having a weird Pokémon called Mew. Kenny was getting really into it until….

“Well, well, well, what do we have here?”

Kenny didn’t look impressed. “What do you want Nathan?” Kenny said looking up.

“Oh nothing, I just came here to bully you of course. Since I’m you’re bully.” Nathan grabs Kenny by the shirt and easily picks him up from the ground.

Kenny was the nerd one in his grade. That being 6th grade. Nathan was the tallest and meanest class in his grade. Kenny was really annoyed.

“My lunch money is in my desk. Can I at least have this recess to enjoy my activities?” Kenny questions. He was really enjoying that book.

“How about... no? I’m bored here, and I want to enjoy beating the crap out of you every day,” Nathan smiles.

Kenny just rolls his eyes. “Do it quickly, I really got a good book.”

“Let him go!”

Kenny and Nathan turn their heads.

It was Dom.

“Aw, is your boyfriend going to save you?” Nathan said leaning in on Kenny’s face. Kenny just sighed.

“Actually, yes I am. You see I was curious to go over your backpack. I happen to find some interesting magazines,” Dom said with a sinister smile on his face.

Nathan drops Kenny. “Ouch,” Kenny calmly said.

Nathan looks at Dom. His face had turned red.

“You didn’t,” Nathan said closing his fist.

“Oh I did. And you better let my boyfriend go, unless you want the whole school to know that you see some manly action. And I really do mean manly,” Dom said and he chuckles.

Nathan was enraged. “If one word escapes about this…” Nathan started to say.

“And no one will know you’re homo secret unless you leave him alone. Got it?”

Nathan said nothing and walked away.

Kenny brushes off.

“You ok boyfriend?” Dom said winking at him.

Kenny blushes and gathers his things.

“Is he really gay?” Kenny said.

“Yeah he is. That makes three of us now doesn’t it? Anyways, wanna grab some berries?” Dom said.

Kenny smiles. “Sure!”

They walk off and headed to the big Oran Berry tree. They gathered some of the berries.

Kenny stuffed his mouth with them. “I love Oran Berries. Not to mention Pokémon love them too. It also heals them,” Kenny states as he chews.

Dom giggles. “You’re such a nerd,” he said and hugs Kenny.

“H-Hey! What are you doing?” Kenny said blushing uncontrollably.

“You’re my boyfriend smart one; I can hug you as many times as I want.”

Dom was about to kiss Kenny when he moves out of the way.

“We’re not boyfriends! We’re only best friends!” Kenny said looking away but still blushing at the fact that Dom considered him as his boyfriend.

“C’mon Kenny, I know you want me. And besides, remember what we did in my sleepover party?” Dom said leaning closer to Kenny whose eyes had darkened because of embarrassment. Kenny begins to bleed from his nose.

“You didn’t have to mention that….”

Dom laughs and snatches Kenny’s backpack.

“Hey!” Kenny shouts.

“You’re going to have to catch me Kenny!” Dom said smiling as he ran away.

Kenny smiles and runs after him.





Leaf was talking to her friend Marie on the hills.

“-and I was like, Blue was looking at me the whole way! I just don’t know what to do you know?” Leaf said looking at the sky.

“Oh Melody, Blue is stuck in your head permanently,” Marie said looking at the sky too.

“Well first I was all up on Red, remember? Now Blue is stuck in my head.”

Marie and Leaf exchanged looks and giggled.

“I can’t believe Red and Blue are still mad at each other. Remember how they used to hang out all the time? Now it’s like they hate each other for life!” Marie said.

“They don’t hate each other too much. I just wished I knew what made them tick. Maybe they fought over a girl or something,” Leaf said.

“Speak of the devil,” Marie said leaning close to Leaf.

They see Blue and his other couple of friends coming up to them.

“Well if it isn’t the two drama queens,” Blue said standing in his new cocky way.

“Go away Blue!” Marie said looking away.

Leaf on the other hand was blushing but looked away to conceal her state.

“I want to talk to Leaf by the way,” Blue said.

Leaf goes stiff and rolls down the hill.

“Hey! Where are you going?!” Blue shouts.

Leaf continued to roll down the hill until she crashed into Red. He falls down on top of her, inches away from each other's face. Red blushes and Leaf smiles weirdly.

Blue stops in front of Leaf and Red.

“Oh! Uh- What the heck Melody!?” Red said feeling his knee.

“Oh, I’m sorry Red!” Leaf blushes.

Red looks up and sees Blue standing there. Red looks away.

“What’re you doing here Blue,” Red said.

Blue smiles. “I’m here to ask Leaf on a date for your information.”

“WHAT!?!” Red and Leaf scream.

Blue smiles wider.

“I wanted to ask you out for a long time now Leaf. I just couldn’t have the guts to tell you.”

Leaf blushes a lot now.

Red gets mad and stands up.

“You don’t even like her! You’re just doing it to get back at me!” Red yells.

“Huh?” Leaf looks at Red.

“Hold it Red. You know that I’ve liked Leaf in the longest of time. You’re just jealous that I reached her first!” Blue exclaims.

Leaf looks at Blue.

“I’m not jealous! You don’t like her!” Red yells. Leaf turns to Red.

“Then why are you getting so mad that I’m actually getting at her!” Blue exclaims. Leaf looks at Blue.

“Well…. I…. I….” Red stutters and a red mark goes across his face.

“Admit it Red! You just want her get at ME!” Blue said pointing at his chest.

“STOOOOOOP!!!” Leaf screams. Blue and Red stare at her.

“You two are always freaking fighting! Now you’re even fighting over me! Oh my gosh you’re fighting over… me? Wait- no! I don’t even like any of you! You two are a bunch of babies!”

Red and Blue give shocked faces.

Leaf looks behind her and sees Satoshi.

“I like him!” she screams pointing at Satoshi who looks confused.

“YOU LIKE ASH!” Blue screams in shock.

“You want Satoshi?” Red questions silently.

“YES I DO! You two just use me as a way to continue fighting….” Leaf said as a solemn tear goes down her eye. Red was about to reach out for Leaf but stops and looks away.

She walks up to Satoshi who looked confused out of his mind.

“Leaf what's going on…” Satoshi said blushing.

Leaf looks at Satoshi.

“Satoshi, I love you. I've been trying to tell you for the longest of time but now today I have the courage to tell you how I truly feel about you.”

And then Leaf kissed Satoshi on the mouth. Satoshi's eyes widen and then he closes them when he realized that he liked the kiss.

Red stares into the abyss.

Blue twitches and runs away.

Kenny and Dom had seen everything go down.

“Dom, Leaf isn’t in love with that boy,” Kenny said.

“I know. Do we interfere?” Dom asked.

Kenny nods his head. He didn’t realize that Dom was holding his hand.

Meanwhile, Nathan was hiding behind a tree.

He wipes a tear off his face. Now how will he ever approach Kenny?

The next chapter is finally here <3 enjoy! Part 1 of 2.
Chapter 8pt1: Battle in Pewter City!
~~~~~~Red

After what seemed like forever, Red had finally reached Pewter City. He smiles widely at this achievement. This means that he finally gets to meet his first Gym Leader. And his first Gym Badge.

Before he talked to anyone else, he walks into the Pokémon Center. He looks around and notices that this Pokémon Center looked the same as the one in Viridian City. Too bad it blew up. He walks up to the nurse.

"Welcome to our Pokémon Center! We heal your Pokémon back to perfect health!"

Red sets his two Pokeballs down to the desk. The nurse smiles, takes the Pokeballs and puts them on a machine. It blinks five times and does a few beeping noises, and the nurse then proceeds to take them out.

"Thank you! Your Pokémon are fighting fit! We hope to see you again!" she said handing the Pokeballs in a tray.

Red only smiles at her and sits at a small table. A few feet away. He polishes his Pokeballs with a napkin.

Wow, he’s made it to Pewter City. He survived a Beedrill attack, he fought three Pokémon Trainers in the forest too. Except… he lost to Blue. They’re tied. He will beat Blue. He has to beat him, if not; Blue will never stop tormenting him. He can see it now; Blue is holding the trophy while stepping on top of Red and laughing. Red shakes the thought away and grunts in annoyance that he would even think about such depressing thoughts.

“Yes, mother, I’m in Pewter now. The airplane was so dreadful. Yeah, I’ll call you when I can, bye!”

Red looks to his right and sees a girl with a red and black hat with long red and black boots sitting down and talking on her PokeGear. She had short mahogany hair that touched her shoulders. She even had a long pink bag. But her eyes were a periwinkle blueish color. Red was about to look away when she turned and they were caught in a stare.

"You have staring problems or something kid?" she said.

Red shakes his head and looks away.

"Hey, it's ok if you're shy and all. It's ok."

Red noticed that she had this accent on her. Not an annoying accent, just a different accent, like she didn’t live around here or something.

The girl gets up and sits in front of Red.

"So, have you defeated Brock yet?" she asked. She folded her legs, sets her arms on the table, rests her head in her hands and stares at Red.

Red looks at her and shakes his head.

"I have. He was so easy. Well since I have my Snivy with me. Who ever knew that the first Gym Leader could be so easy you know?"

This caught Red's attention.

"Snivy? I've never heard of that Pokémon."

The girl smiles. Her teeth twinkled.

"That's because Snivy isn't common at all here in Kanto."

Red's eyes widen. "You're not from Kanto?" he asked.

"Nope, I come from Unova. It's not the best place in the world, but it's home. I come from Nuvema Town. Where are you from?" the girl said, getting into talking with Red.

"I'm from Pallet Town. It’s a quiet town in the south. So you're from Unova? Why'd you come here?"

The girl shrugs, but kept her eyes fixed on Red, like he was some form of candy.

"Eh, I wanted to start my Pokémon Journey somewhere fresh. Somewhere new. Well old. Kanto is so nostalgic in some way. I mostly came because of the strongest Psychic Pokémon. Have you heard about the rumors that it’s being sighted?"

Red stares. She rolls her eyes but continues to smile at him.

"Really you're from Kanto and you don't even know about Mewtwo?"

Red suddenly remembers. He looks away trying to hide his sadden face. It seemed to fail because her smiles fades as well.

"No need to be shy kid. Not everyone knows everything. Anyways, you should go battle Brock."

The girl gets up. She was heading to the door when Red runs up to her.

"Wait, let me see Snivy! I want some information on it for my Pokedex."

The girl smiles in a cocky manner and turns to face Red.

"Tell you what, battle me. If you win, you get your information. If you lose, well maybe next time."

Red smiles. He was liking her style.









~~~~~~Route 2

Misty and Satoshi had finally reached the Pokémon Center. Misty looked tired and worn out, but Satoshi was smiling nice and wide while his Pikachu remained next to him on his shoulder.

"Come on Misty, at least tell me what Pokémon you're going to use for your Gym Battle against me," Satoshi begged.

Misty groans and stops Satoshi.

"Can’t you see I’m tired?! But if you really want to join the Pokémon League and compete in the regional championship, you need to beat Gym Leaders from different towns. Once you do that, you'll get the Gym Badges as proof.”

Satoshi looks thoughtful.

“Can you do that?” Misty mocks.

"Of course I can. I'm going to defeat every Gym Leader in Kanto. Even you Misty." Satoshi raises his hand in triumph and Pikachu does the same.

Misty doesn't look impressed.

"You still need to defeat Brock. I doubt you can. He’s as hard as a rock, you can’t defeat someone like him!"

Satoshi crosses his arms. “I can defeat anyone!”

Suddenly they hear a laugh. They look over to see a man with a wide smirk on his face. His face was covered with a pair of sunglasses.

"You defeat Brock?" said the old man who chuckles again.

"What the? Who are you?" Satoshi questions.

The old man smiles. "The names Flint. You can't defeat Brock. You'll lose instantly."

And without a single word, the man leaves. Satoshi growls. He will see. He will see.

"That was weird. Hey look, it's Red!" Misty said happily.

Satoshi looks and sees Red exiting the Pokémon Center. A girl walks out with him.

"Hey, Red!" Misty calls out to him. The girl and Red walk up to them.

"Hey, Misty. Hey Satoshi."

Misty blushes. “Hey, Red. What are you up to?”

Satoshi notices and scratches his head. Why is she blushing? Is it because of Red?

"I was just about to fight this girl from the Unova region," Red states introducing the girl. The girl had a face of disgust when she saw Misty, but then immediately smiles.

"You're from the Unova region? That's awesome!" Satoshi said with a wide smile on his face.

"I'm Lacy by the way. And Red and I were about to fight. Wanna see?"

Misty and Satoshi both nod their heads.

"Well, Red, I guess we're getting quite the attention. Ready to lose?" Lacy said to Red with a smirk all while placing her hand on her lip and stretching her leg apart and leaning to the side.

"I don't lose easily," Red said closing his fist and showing it to Lacy. All she did was smirk and run her eyes through him.



"What's this? Red in a battle?"

Everyone turns to see who had spoken.

It was none other but Blue.

"It's that kid again!" Misty said crossing her arms. Blue just smirks.

"Hey Misty. I couldn't help but overhear what you losers were talking about. I guess Red is going to fight? I want to see him lose of course, since I already beat him once didn’t I, Red?"

Satoshi and Red grind their teeth together in anger.

Lacy stares at Blue who glances over at her. She winks at him. Blue does the same. Lacy seemed a bit surprised by that, but this just made her smile even more.

"Hey, what's up guys?"

It was Sid, Leaf, and Kenny now. They came from different directions and eventually came up to the group. The eight of them now stood looking at each other.

"Well, might as well call this a competition then. Since we're all here, how about we all battle each other. Of course, Red and Lacy are going first," Blue states looking cockier than ever. He glances over at Leaf who was practically drooling. She snaps out of it and looks away with a blush mark. Blue gives a small chuckle. Lacy takes notices of this behavior. She turns to Red who nods his head.

"Ok then, let's go, come along."

Red adjusts his hat and leads the way. Leaf smiles and runs to Red. Blue smirks and follows. Lacy walks in a conceded way and follows Blue. Satoshi and Misty follow along. Sid smiles at Kenny who blushes and fast walks to the group. Sid looks a bit confused but follows.

They reach the arena. It was just a field that was painted to look like a gym layout.

“Wow, this place is awesome!” Sid exclaims looking around.

“Indeed, every city or town has an area for this, in case a Pokémon Trainer wishes to challenge another Trainer. All sorts of Pokémon Trainers come here to battle,” Kenny explains raising his finger in a smart fashion.

“Pfft, Nerd,” Blue says as he starts eating an apple.

Sid didn’t like that.

“That was mean dude,” Sid says looking a bit agitated.

Kenny shakes his head and smiles.

“Oh, he doesn’t mean it. We’re friends.”

Sid frowns and looks back at Blue. Friends huh? This Blue guy looks like he can be a dick to people.



~~~~~~Battle! Red Vs. Lacy!

Misty takes a black and white flag from the arena and heads to the middle. Lacy and Red follow her and face each other. Red stood nice and tall. Lacy stood in her conceded way.

"So, it's a no bound rule! You can use all the Pokémon you have with you!” Misty exclaims.

Lacy smirks, while Red kept a serious face.

"First off, it's Red vs. Lacy! On the sound of the whistle, you guys are going to have to throw the first Pokémon in to the battle. Ready?"

Red adjusts his hat. Lacy just kept smirking.

Misty walks away and blows the whistle.



"Go, Charmander!" Red shouts as he throws his Pokeball to the floor.

"Go Snivy!" Lacy exclaims and does the same.

The audience stood and watched. Leaf grabs a paper from her bag and writes Red with and starts cheering. Blue does the same except writes, “Kick his *** female Red girl!” Leaf looks at his sign and shakes her head. Blue shrugs with a smile.





Charmander bursts out and lands on the floor.

Lacy's Snivy lands on the floor as well and it sparkles for two seconds.

Red had no time to look at the Pokémon, he has to win this.

Lacy on the other hand was panicking in her mind. Red chose a Fire Type. Now what is she going to do? She needs strategy.

"Charmander, Ember!" Red exclaims.

His fire Pokémon flips its tail to Snivy and a giant ball of flame flies towards Snivy.

"Dodge it!"

Snivy jumps out of the way.

"Snivy, Leer!"

The Grass Pokémon gives a threatening look at Charmander which makes him flinch a little.

"Now use Vine Whip!" Lacy shouts.

Snivy jumps in the air, and two long vines stretch out and slap Charmander to the ground.

"Get up!" Red yells in annoyance.

Charmander gets up easily and gives a small angry cry.

"Use Ember!" Red cries.

Charmander flips its tail, and a fireball of fire flies to Snivy.

"Look out!"

It was too late, Snivy was consumed by fire, it yells in pain. Snivy still stood however, but very weakly, it even had burn marks all over it and had darken with brown.

"Charmander, finish it!" The fire Pokémon jumps in the air and turns violently, sending a large fireball to Snivy.

The grass Pokémon dodges it. Red and Charmander gasp.

"Leer!" Snivy does the same look, Charmander backs away.

That move seems to make Charmander lose focus, its defense can easily go down because of that.

"Ember!"

Charmander does his move again, but Snivy still manages to move out of the way.

"How does it keep evading my attacks?" Red yells in frustration and closing his fists.

"Cause you Kanto folks are slow at everything! Now use Tackle!" Lacy exclaims extending her arm to Charmander.

Snivy dashes towards Charmander, and it barely dodges Snivy. Lacy looks surprised which made Red smile. Red lifts his arm up into the sky.

"Ember!"

Charmander does a 360 turn, and its tail releases fire in which it flies to Snivy. The Pokémon is consumed by fire. The attack seemed to be a critical hit! Snivy staggers for a bit until it fainted.

Red cheers in joy, but then Lacy stops him.

"Go, Mareep!"

She throws her Pokeball and a Mareep appears. It sparkled for two seconds too.

Red looked uncertain. He noticed that this Pokémon was pink. What type could it be?

"Mareep, Thunder Wave!"

Mareep shook its fur and little pink and yellow sparks flies towards Charmander which hits him. Charmander freezes and electricity flies all over him. It twitches in pain.

"Mareep, Tackle!"

The Mareep dashes forward and tackles Charmander to the floor it rolls on the floor.

Charmander got up. "Use Ember!"

Charmander tries to move, but it was paralyzed!

"Mareep, Tackle!"

The Pokémon tackles Charmander again and the poor Pokémon is sent flying across the arena.

Red was getting mad. Sweat fell from his forehead.

"Charmender hold on!"

Lacy smiles. "Your Charmander doesn't look too good! You should just give up now while you have the chance Red!"

Red growls. His Charmander waved from one side to another.

"Mareep, finish him with Tackle!"

The Mareep dashes forward.

"Charmander, use Ember now!"

Just as Mareep was about to finish Charmander, the fire Pokémon flips its tail and fire flies to Mareep.

Mareep burns. It screams in pain.

It was a critical hit! Mareep staggers back, but shakes it off and tackles Charmender to the ground.

Charmander doesn't get back up.

Red returns Charmander to its Pokeball. He looks down at the ground with his cap covering his face. Lacy smirks. She sees Red look up with a smile.

"Go Bulbasaur!"

Bulbasaur lands on the floor.



Leaf, Blue, Satoshi, Kenny, and Sid gasp loudly. Red and Lacy turn to them.

"Where'd you get a Bulbasaur?!" Satoshi exclaims.

"That's so not fair, I'm the one with the Bulbasaur!" Leaf shouts as she waves her arms in anger.

"Dude, you gotta tell me where you got it!" Sid says getting out his Pokedex.

"In which location did you find it?! Was it during our timing in Viridian Forest?!" Kenny says adjusting his glasses and looking closely at it.

Blue suddenly smirks widely. He sets his hand in a cocky way.

"Let me guess, Gramps gave you it didn't he? What a noob, taking Pokémon instead of capturing them."

Red looks annoyed and said, "You stole that Eevee from him."

Leaf screams. She turns to Blue with closed fists. Blue shrinks.

“Uh… hi?” Blue says sounding guilty.

"You said you caught it! You lied to me, in my face!" she exclaims looking angry.

Blue puts a hand behind his head. "Well.... you see..."

Leaf crosses her hands and looks away. “Forever ignored Blue Oak. Get out of my space, you’ll contaminate it with your lies.”

Kenny was too busy looking at Mareep.

Could it be a Shiny? He's never seen a pink Mareep before. The Professor said that Shiny Pokémon are better at some things. Did he say that?



Lacy and Red ignored the crowd and focused.

"Mareep, Thunder Wave!"

Once again that same electric move flies towards Bulbasaur, it moves out the way in time.

"Bulbasaur, Vine Whip!"

Two long vines come out and slap Mareep to the floor. Mareep didn't get back up.

Red won! Red beat Pokémon Trainer Lacy!



“What? I lost?! I guess you Kanto folks aren't too bad…"

Lacy returns her Pokémon.

She pays Red $180 for winning!



Everyone cheers for Red.

"Well, at least you're good in Pokémon Battles Red, I could so beat you in basketball and other games," Blue said in his cockish manner.

"Good job Red!" Kenny congratulated.

"Yeah Red, nicely done dude!" Sid said with a smile.

Red turns to Lacy. "Now for our agreement?"

Leaf raises an eyebrow. Lacy notices and smiles at Red. She rolls her eyes but kept her smile.

"Can I at least heal my Pokémon first?" she said.

Red nods his head. Lacy and Red leave to the Pokémon Center. Leaf watches them leave, frowning.



"Ok then, how about Satoshi vs. me? Come on Satoshi, I'll take you on!" Blue said with his smirk.

"Go on Satoshi, accept his match!" Misty said pushing him forward.

"Uh, ok!" Satoshi said.









~~~~~~Blue vs. Satoshi!

Satoshi sets his hat on the opposite direction. Blue just flips his long and spiky hair.

“Same rules as last time! You can use all your Pokémon!” Misty says with the flag in position. She then walks away and blows the whistle.

"Go, Squirtle!"

"Go Pikachu!"

Pikachu and Squirtle face each other.

Crap, Blue thinks.

"Pikachu, ThunderShock!" Pikachu crunches up, and electricity jumps out and hits Squirtle which screams in pain. It was super effective!

"No!" Blue exclaims. Squirtle was still standing however. It twitches as electricity jumps out of it.

"Squirtle, use Bubble!" Squirtle releases a few hard bubbles to Pikachu who dodges it.

"Pikachu, ThunderShock!"

Pikaaachuuu!

Pikachu's attack hits Squirtle again, and this time, it's game over for him.

Squirtle faints to the ground. Blue shakes his head. His star Pokémon losing to such a loser like Satoshi is sad.

"Go, Rattata!"

Blue sends out Rattata!

"Pikachu, use ThunderShock!" Satoshi commands. Pikachu charges up.

"Rattata, Tackle!"

Rattata dodges Pikachu's attack, and tackles Pikachu a few feet away. It cries out in pain and rolls through the dirt. It gets back up.

"Use, Tail Whip!"

Rattata turns around and wags its tail around, Pikachu following it curiously.

"Pikachu, focus, you're letting your guard down!" Satoshi warns.

"Now Rattata, finish it with Tackle!"

Rattata dashes towards Pikachu and head-butts Pikachu. It is then seen flying across the dirt and lands on its back. It didn’t move.

Satoshi runs up to Pikachu. "Pikachu, are you ok?"

Chuu....

Satoshi picks up his Pokémon. He walks up to Misty. "Take care of him will you?"

Misty nods and takes the tired Pikachu of from Satoshi.

Blue was smiling. "Well, who's next to faint, Satoshi?"

This made Satoshi mad.

"Go Pidgeotto!"

His Pokémon comes flying out. Blue looks in awe for a few seconds but shakes of the fact. Satoshi… has a Pidgeotto first than him?

"Pidgeotto use Gust!"

Rattata was too late to move as a giant wave whirls him up in the air and he falls to the ground hard. It grunts in pain.

"Rattata, Tackle, now!" Blue shouts.

Rattata jumps in the air, but misses the attack.

"Pidgeotto, Gust again!"

The same thing happens, only this time Rattata is sent higher into the air and falls down to the ground on its head. It fainted.

"Dammit, go, Eevee!" Blue shouts.



In the background, Kenny was getting information on his Pokedex.

"Eevee; Number 133. The evolution Pokémon Its genetic code is unstable, so it could evolve in a variety of ways. There are only a few alive. Its ability to evolve into many forms allows it to adapt smoothly and perfectly to any environment."

Sid smiles.

"That Pokémon's tight! I wish I had an Eevee!" Sid said now turning over to the battle that raged on.

"I wish I had you," Kenny sighed. His eyes widen in fear.

"Huh?" Sid asks.

Kenny panics. "Uh, Nothing, I wish I had a Mew!" Kenny exclaims, and he gets a nose bleed.

"Oh ok! Wait, what's a Mew again?"



"Tackle!"

Eevee jumps in the air and with a direct hit easily faints Pidgeotto.

"What?" Satoshi questions.

"You forgot how weak it got because of the battle back in Viridian Forest, Satoshi!" Misty angrily cries out. Satoshi sighs.

"Go Butterfree!" he exclaims.

Blue looks worried now. How can Satoshi already have a Butterfree?

"Butterfree, Stun Spore!" Yellow dust fills Eevee who instantly stops moving. It coughs out yellow dust.

"No!" Blue cries out.

"Butterfree, Tackle it!" The Butterfree swoops down and sends Eevee flying up in the air.

"Finish it!"

Butterfree flies off towards the now falling Eevee, and tackles it to the floor. Eevee twitches a little, and then stops. It had fainted.

Blue furiously throws a Pokeball at the floor, and Pidgey came out.

"Pidgey, Gust!"

A rush of wind escapes Pidgey's flapping wings and hits Butterfree which is swapped down to the ground, sending dust to everyone watching. Butterfree still managed to endure it.

"Butterfree, use Sleep Powder!"

Blue dust falls on Pidgey and almost immediately falls asleep on the ground.

"No!" Blue cries out grabbing his hair (Leaf drools watching Blue get all pumped up.)

"Butterfree, finish it with Tackle!"

The Butterfree dives and tackles Pidgey a few feet away. Pidgey then woke up! It shakes off the pain

"Pidgey!" Blue cries in relief.

“Butterfree, let’s do this!” Satoshi cries out extending his arm to the battle.

"Tackle!" both Satoshi and Blue shout at the same time.

Butterfree charges to Pidgey. Blue's Pokémon flies forward like a bullet.

Both Pokémon collide, and somehow get tangled up in which they both fall to the ground sending dust again all over the place.

Everyone held their breath. The dust starts to clear, and the silhouette of a Pokémon is seen.

Pidgey staggers to get up, but it eventually did. Butterfree remains in the floor.

Blue defeated Satoshi!

Poor Satoshi stared in disbelief and shock.

Blue cockishly flips his hair away from his face and returns both Eevee and Pidgey.

"Yeah! Am I great or what?! Sorry, Satoshi, you're just not fit to fight me. Better luck next time. Smell ya later!"

And with that Blue walks away smirking and leaving the crowd in bewilderment.









~~~~~~The Pokémon Center

Since Blue left, everyone decided to rest in the Pokémon Center to rest while their Pokémon healed. So it was now Red, Leaf, Kenny, Sid, Lacy, Satoshi, and Misty.

Kenny was getting information from his new Pokémon, Deerling.

"Deerling; Number 585. The season Pokémon. The color and scent of their fur changes to match the mountain grass. When they sense hostility, they hide in the grass. The turning of the seasons changes the color and scent of this Pokémon’s fur. People use it to mark the seasons."
Kenny smiles. Such an interesting Pokémon.

"Wow, that's so sad," Misty said.

“There was nothing he can do though Misty,” Satoshi ties to explain.

Kenny had told them the story of how he got a hold of his new Pokémon.

Leaf however was looking at Kenny. She needs to talk to him about this new fore coming about him and Sid. They'll look so cute together!

Lacy on the other hand was also staring at someone. She thought Sid was pretty cute on the chubby side, and she wouldn't mind a boyfriend from another region. Lacy smiles at Sid who smiles back and he continues to eat a donut from the Pokémon Center.

Lacy smiles to herself. She’ll get him.

Red had gotten his information on Snivy too. It was all well so far.

"Sooo, who's fought Brock yet?" Lacy asks.

Nobody said a word.

"Really?! Am I seriously the only one who defeated Brock?" Lacy questions.

"Well you see..." Kenny started to say but was interrupted by Lacy who said, "I mean come on, I'm not even from this region and I'm beating you guys?"

Leaf stands up. "Blue defeated Brock fair and square! He even showed me his badge!"

Red and Satoshi almost choke on their food. "Blue did what?!" they yell at the same time.

"Um.... well....." Leaf says, blushing.

Lacy stands up. "Well, I got to go to the hotel that I'm staying at. Tomorrow I'm off to Cerulean City to fight the next Gym Leader." Lacy walks off.

"She doesn't know it's you huh?" Sid asks Misty.

"Nope!" Misty said smiling while she kicks back and slurps up her milkshake.

Red and Satoshi shrink in their seats. Blue already defeated a Gym Leader…

"Oh cheer up you guys! You can literally go and fight Brock right now!" Leaf said sitting back down. She takes a sip of her lemonade.

"I'm tired,” Red says resting his head at the table.

"Yeah, me too,” Satoshi adds and does the same.

"Ugh, really?! Then stop complaining that Blue is beating you guys! You two are seriously like twins or something! Blue is winning, and you two just sit around doing nothing!" Leaf exclaims.

"Why are you even defending him so much?" Red questions.

"Well.... he's a good friend....." Leaf says looking nervous.

Red and Satoshi exchange looks and then burst out laughing. Satoshi falls of the table.

Leaf blushes and turns around angrily.

"Blue, a friend? Leaf, are you feeling ok? Blue is the biggest jerk in Kanto!" Red laughs.

“That’s the funniest thing she’s said in a while!” Satoshi chuckles.

Leaf gets up. "You two are unbelievable! Maybe you two are related in some way after all!"

Leaf storms out the building.

Kenny sighs. "Must there always be such conflict between them?"

Sid smiles at Kenny. “I kinda find it funny haha! Makes Leaf even hotter!”

Kenny gets up from his chair and walks to the nurse. Sid blinks twice as Kenny reaches the front desk.

"Excuse me; can I know when my Sandshrew will be better?"

The nurse looks at Kenny. She gasps.

"You're Kenny! You're Aiden's brother!"

Kenny suddenly froze up. Oh no….

Misty's head shots up. She looks at Kenny closely and then gasps.

"I knew you looked familiar! You're Aiden's brother!"

Kenny fades into the blackness.

"Who's Aiden?" Red asks.

"Really Red? Aren't you Kenny's friend? Aiden is the current Champion of the Kanto Pokémon League!" Misty says with anger.

Red and Satoshi now look at Kenny.

Kenny's head slowly turns to face the sitting companions. He sees Sid reaction. Sid was wide eyed and his mouth was open.

Kenny sets his arm behind his back and rubs it.

"Oh, did I forget to mention that? Haha."





~~~~~~Leaf vs. Brock!

Leaf went back inside the Pokémon Center which was now at night. Everyone was fast asleep.

Good, she thought.

The nurse was wide awake. "Hello Leaf, how can I help you?"

Leaf quietly said, "I'm here for my Pokémon. I've decided to fight Brock right now. It's the only way I'll be ahead of those losers over there."

The nurse smiles and gives Leaf her Pokémon. "Good luck!" the nurse whispers.

Leaf nods her head and runs outside.



Leaf goes inside the Pokémon Gym. It was completely dark.

"Who goes there?" said a voice that made Leaf jump in the air.

"I'm here to challenge Brock in a battle!" Leaf cries out even though she was afraid.

Suddenly a light shines a boy. It was a Youngster Trainer. Leaf wanted to become a Youngster Trainer, but she decided to wait.

“You’re not Brock…” Leaf says looking unimpressed.

“Of course not you harlot!” the kid says crossing his arms.

“Harlot?! You little runt, I’ll teach you manners!” Leaf says looking mean and nasty.

The kid raises a hand. Leaf stops running up to him.

"Brock is a talented Gym Leader, girl. He loves to beat Rockies like you down the solid rock. He switches kids every day, but we have to show him of our worthiness. If you want to fight Brock, you have to get through me!"

Leaf readies her Pokeball. “Oh I’m going to enjoy beating you!”

The door closes behind her and the lights of the Gym beam up. It was a wide space, filled with boulders and rocks everywhere. Brock was nowhere to be seen.

"Go Geodude!"

"Go Nidoran!"

An intense battle rang out with Leaf this young boy, Nidoran was defeated, and so was her Caterpie, but with Bulba, she succeeded! The kid goes on his knees and starts crying.

"Now then, I'll go heal my Pokémon in the Pokémon Center, and then I'll come back and defeat Brock."

Leaf goes to the door, but she realizes that it was locked. She tries to open it again, but it wouldn’t budge.

“What the hell?! Why can’t I leave?” Leaf exclaims kicking the door.

"I lock the door. You can't leave."

Leaf turns around and a light shines on a teenager. His arms and legs were crossed, and he sat on top of a large boulder. He wore only a pair of dark tan pants. His hair was spiked up.

"As a Pokémon Trainer, you should always be prepared to buy potions or other items on a journey. You cannot leave until you either battle and win, or battle and lose. You can always forfeit a match. Can you defeat me, Brock?"

Leaf looks back at the door then at Brock.

"I will fight you! I can't let myself just forfeit. If you lose, it's all on me,” Leaf says standing her ground with confidence.

Brock nods his head once.

Suddenly the ground begins to shake, and the arena is suddenly transformed into a rocky battlefield!



"Since this is your first Gym Battle, I will use only two Pokémon. Go, Geodude!"

"Bulba, let's do this!"

Bulba lands in front of Brock's Geodude. Both Pokémon stare at each other. Bulba growls while Geodude slams its fists together.

"Geodude, Tackle!"

Bulba was immediately thrown a few feet across the field, rolling until it lands standing on its feet. It shakes off the pain.

"Bulba, use Vine Whip!" Leaf shouts.

Two long green vines stretch out of Bulba and slap Geodude. It flies towards Brock who simply tilts to the side as his Geodude almost hits him. Geodude hits the wall and faints. Brock’s face expression didn’t change at all. He remained serious.

"Is that all you got?" Leaf smiles. Her Bulba jumps once in excitement.

"Go Onix!" Brock says throwing a Pokeball to the ground.

"Say what?"

The Pokeball opens, and an Onix appears. It gives a roar as it stood nice and tall. Leaf and Bulba freeze as they stare at this Pokémon’s amazing height.

"A way I like to humiliate week trainers is by using the move Bind. Onix, Bind!"

The giant Pokémon suddenly takes a hold of Bulba and starts to crush Bulba tightly. Bulba was struggling. Leaf was starting to panic.

"No! Bulba!"

Brock stands up. "Do you give up?"

Leaf looks at Bulba who slowly turns blue.

"NO! Bulba, use Vine Whip!"

The two fines go up in the air and slap Onix on its head; screaming, it releases Bulba.

"Bulba, Vine Whip!" Leaf shouts again.

Bulba jumps in the air and hits Onix everywhere with its vines. Onix cries in pain.

"Super-effective!" Leaf cheers as she starts snapping her fingers and dancing around.

"Onix, Tackle!"

Onix uses its tail and tackles Bulba who was barely landing on the floor. Bulba is sent flying across the gym and hits Leaf. Leaf screams in shock and pain as they are both sent flying across the gym and crash out the door. Glass flies everywhere; Leaf rolls across the dirt with Bulba until she stops a few feet away from the gym. She groans and struggles to get up. She looks at her Bulba.

Bulba fainted....

She looks back at the gym. The door had fixed itself somehow, it was nice and organized, and no glass or debris surrounded the entrance. And out of the shadows Brock appears before Leaf. She stares in horror at him who seemed tall and fearsome.

"You should really come back when you're strong enough. Just because you have a type advantage does not mean you can win a battle. Maybe you should go back to where you came from. Until then, take your Pokémon back to the Pokémon Center. Good night."

Brock disappears in his gym as the door closes behind him.

A tear goes down Leaf's face.

She… lost. She actually lost. How...? She has a type advantage, she should’ve won. It doesn’t make sense. Bulba… Onix… What just happened.

She carries her fainted Pokémon and limps towards the Pokémon Center.

"I'm so sorry Bulba, I failed. I failed you. I'm so sorry,” Leaf tells her fainted Pokémon with tears raining down her face.

She goes inside the Pokémon Center.

Cut and bruised she hands all her Pokémon to the nurse.

PKMN Trainer
Part two of chapter 8! Murp.
Chapter 8pt2: Battle in Pewter City! Enter Team Rocket!
~~~~~~Red

He woke up. Did he hear right?

He sees Leaf talking to the others. She had a few bandages on her face, and a stitch on her right cheek. She looked really sad and down.

"You faced Brock?" Red spoke, interrupts them talking.

Everyone looks at Red.

"Yeah… He was… so strong. I don't know how someone can beat him. That Lacy girl we met yesterday… and Blue… they must be really tough to defeat someone like him."

Red sits next to Leaf and checks out her scars. He shakes his head.

“You got hurt really bad. How did this happen? Are you ok?” Red asks.

Leaf nods her head and looks away. “I was stupid. The whole thing was stupid. I thought we could win because I’m a Grass Type and he’s a Rock Type. I don’t get it.”

Sid shakes his head and says, “It ain’t just about the type advantages though. It’s about being smart and making sure you don’t take too much damage. Sure you have the advantage, but it’s the way you battle out in the field that counts.”

Red, Kenny, and Leaf look at Sid in amazement. Sid blushes and rubs the back of his head.

“Sorry, I see a lot of battle on TV.”

Leaf gives out a weak smile and looks at Kenny who was keeping an eye on Sid. He then looks away with a blush mark on his face.

"What do we do then? Do we still fight him?" Kenny questions.

At that point, Misty comes up to them.

"I couldn’t help but hear you guys talking about Brock. Well, I saw Brock in a meeting with all the Gym Leaders. When I became a Gym Leader, I actually fought him against him. He wasn't too hard."

Kenny stands up.

"That's because you didn't go to Trainer School like the rest of us. You already had a bond with actual Pokémon. And you're father was a Pokémon Gym Leader. You took over his position of Gym Leader, therefore of course you're strong. Saying you defeated Brock in such a simple manner does not help since you have had experience already Misty.”

Misty stares at Kenny. She sits back down.

"Discussing and going against each other isn't going to help us defeat Brock, Kenny," Satoshi said looking at Misty with worried eyes.

"There are some Pokémon Trainees in his Gym. They won't let you face Brock until you can defeat them," Leaf states. At this, Sid groans.

"How the hell are we supposed to win against Brock if he locks his gym until either we lose or he loses?" Sid said looking at Satoshi’s Pikachu who was drinking a bottle of ketchup.

"That's why we have to train." Leaf said standing up. Everyone looks at her.

"So what Level do you think his Pokémon are at currently? Maybe we can try to train to match up to his level." Kenny questions.

"At least 12 or 14. I’m not sure. They're strong."

Sid stands up. "Well we can't just sit here doing nothing. I'm off to Viridian Forest to train. You coming, Kenny?"

Sid runs off. Kenny follows.

"What are you going to do Satoshi?" Misty questions.

"I think that I'll just fight Brock right now," he responds while standing up.

"That's a stupid thing to do," Misty tries to warn him.

"I won't lose. Besides, I already got all the information I need to defeat Brock." Satoshi said.

Misty blushes. "You know.... if you need help.... you could just ask for my help..."

Satoshi crosses his arms.

"I don't need your help Misty!"

Satoshi walks off leaving Misty in shock.

"Burned to the ground," Leaf jokes.

"Shut up Leaf! I'm leaving!" Misty exclaims as she exits.

Leaf looks at Red. They both stare at each other for a few seconds.

“Hey… uh, Leaf-” Red starts to say.

"You're going to train?" Leaf asks quickly.

Red just nods his head.

"I'm off to Route 3. There's sure to be more Pokémon there. I'll train there."

And Leaf exits the Pokémon Center.

Red sighs. Maybe now isn’t the best time to confess to her.


Red walks down the road and sees the gate to Route 3. He was about to go when someone calls him.

"Hey wait!"

Red looks at the man.

"You're a Pokémon Trainer right?" Red nods his head.

"Brock is looking for new challengers. Follow me!"

The man starts to walk away.

Red looks at Route 3 then at the man. Screw it he thinks.

"Come along!" the man exclaims.

They walked all the way to the Pokémon Gym. Red saw a bunch of people talking about Brock and how awesome he is. He overheard a group of girls saying that Brock is so famous and all that nonsense.

They stop in front of the gym.

"If you have the right stuff, go take on Brock!" the man said and then leaves.

Red stares at the Pokémon Gym. He can hear the cries of someone coming from inside. A boy comes running out crying and holding his fainted Charmender.

Red imagines himself in that boy. How is he going to beat Brock?

Red decides to train somewhere in Pewter to improve his skills.

As he walks down the town, he sees a familiar straw hat looking around on the buildings. He smiles and runs up to her.

“Hey, Yellow!”

She turns around and blushes but smiles.

“Red!”

She runs up to him to give him a nice big hug. They break the hug and look at each other with wide smiles.

“Hey Yellow. What are you doing in Pewter City? I thought you were you going to help your Grandmother move around stuff in Viridian Forest?”

She nods her head, “Yeah I was, but then I saw you go into Pewter so I decided to go and say hi!”

Red nods his head. He stares at her hazel eyes.

Yellow is one of Red’s best friends. They met when they were small, and became friends after an incident with a Pokemon. After that, Red and Yellow started talking and became good friends. Her real name is actually Jaune, a Kalos name that means yellow so they nick named her Yellow.

Red sees Yellow take of her straw hat and it is revealed that her hair has been dyed to a light brown color. Her hair was also shorter than usual and she had two pigtails.

“So are you going to fight Brock?” she asks.

“I was about to train, wanna come and see me fight wild Pokemon?” Red says reaching out his hand to her.

She blushes and nods. She grabs his hand and they walk through Pewter City.

Jaune smiles to herself as they walk through the city. Ever since she could remember, Red has always been nice to her, and over the years, she’s grown to have a crush on him. She knows that Red doesn’t see her that way, but it’s better to stay silent in order to hide the awkwardness.

They go through Route 2. Red lets go of her hand, smiles at her and runs into the tall grass to find a Pokémon. Jaune watches him from a distance and starts daydreaming of Red kissing her. She blushes at the thought and continues to daydream. At least in her dreams, Red is more than just a friend.







~~~~~~Kenny and Sid

"Kricketot; Number 401. The cricket Pokémon. It chats with others using the sounds of its colliding antennae. These sounds are fall hallmarks. Its legs are short. Whenever it stumbles, its stiff antennae clack with a xylophone-like sound."

"Butterfree, Number 012. The butterfly Pokémon. In battle, it flaps its wings at high speed to release highly toxic dust into the air. Its wings, covered with poisonous powders, repel water. This allows it to fly in the rain."


Kenny puts his Pokedex away. "Who knew that so many Pokémon could be in the forest."

Sid comes back from his leak. He zips up his zipper.

"Dude, I just saw someone looking at us."

Kenny turns to Sid. His eyes were big.

"What do you mean you saw someone looking at us?"

Suddenly two people appear out of knowhere, and they were wearing black suits with a letter 'R' on their chest.

"Well, well, well what do we got here?" the man said.

Kenny backs away from them. Sid stands still.

"Team Rocket!"

The grunts laugh. "You got that right! Now, if you can do us a favor, give us your Pokeballs."

Sid closes his fist. "Like hell I will!"

Kenny pulls on Sid's shirt. "Let's just go!"

The grunts laugh. "Don't you two look cute together! Hand 'em over now or else."

Sid grabs his Pokeball. Kenny shakes his head frantically.

"Ah, the little runt wants to fight us! Ok then, go Zubat!"

The Rocket Grunt throws his Pokeball to the floor. The Zubat comes out.

Sid was ready to throw his Pokeball when suddenly a stream of fire comes from the sky and burns the Zubat. It immediately faints.

"Freeze you bastards!"

Kenny and Sid look up. The grunts do as well.

It was Aiden!

He was on his Charizard, flying down to the ground.

The two grunts run away, carrying the Zubat.

Aiden lands with Charizard on the floor. He smiles at the site of his brother.

"What's up Kevin!" Aiden said getting down.

"Salutations… Aiden."

Aiden hugs his brother. Sid stared in awe.

"You shouldn't be in Viridian Forest so early in the morning Kenny. It's dangerous in the morning and at night. People have died here."

Kenny looks sadden. He turns his head away from his brother.

"So what're you doing here anyways? Going to fight Brock? And who's' this?"

Kenny looks at Sid who was practically drooling.

"This is Sid, Aiden. He's from the Hoenn region. He moved here two weeks ago. We're traveling together."

Sid stared at Aiden. Kenny face palms.

"You're... the Champion of Kanto...." Sid whispers as if he was out of breath.

Aiden laughs. "Yes I am."

"How'd you become Champion?! How does it feel to be a Champion?!" Sid exclaims and soon started to ask so many questions.

"Whoa calm down dude. I've only been Champion for two years. It's my pleasure to meet all my fans though. Now my question, what are you two both doing here?" Aiden asks.

"We're training to fight Brock, but then those two idiots where there,” Sid responds without taking his hypnotic eyes away from the Kanto Champion.

Aiden shakes his head. "You two should go train somewhere else. The Viridian Forest is a dark place. So I suggest that you two keep going on to Pewter right now. I'm busy at the moment." Aiden pets his Charizard.

"So what starter did you get Kenny?" Aiden says looking at his brother who sadly looks at the floor.

".......Shiny Sandshrew......"

Aiden looks at Kenny. He then gives a little chuckle.

"Really?! Wow! What happened?"

Kenny looks gloom. "....I was late....."

Aiden then continues to laugh. Sid snaps out of his estate and looks at Kenny then at Aiden.

"Wow I feel so sorry for having such a downer brother. Do you even have another Pokémon with you?"

Kenny nods his head. "Deerling."

Aiden laughs even more. Sid frowns at his mocking.

"You got a Deerling?! How in the world did you get a Unova Pokémon? Oh well at least that makes up your failure to be late."

Sid looks at Kenny. Kenny eyes seem to turn a bit brighter, and glassier. Is he going to cry?

“Ken…” Sid says but then the Champion walks up to him.

"Hey, Hoenn Kid, take this." Aiden hands Sid a Pokeball. Sid takes it and examines it.

"It's a Wooper. You'll love it. A girl gave it to me when she visited my house back in Vermillion. Well I gotta go, get out of the forest you two. Good luck on defeating Brock!" Aiden jumps on Charizard and they fly off elsewhere.

Kenny continues to look on the floor.

"Kenny, not to be mean or anything, but your brother is kinda a dick. And are you ok dude?"

Kenny nods his head.

"I appreciate your concern… And yes, I know. That's why I didn't mention him in the first place. Ever since he turned 18 and won the Pokémon League, he changed. Not that it matters. I want to defeat him, just to rub it on his face. Rather devastating that I would reach such lengths, but he mocks me constantly."

Sid smiles at that. He then says, "That's the spirit! That can be your goal! Reach the top so you can get some respect dude! We need to keep training though, so let's train hard!"

Kenny nods his head. They begin to walk through the forest. Sid puts an arm around Kenny in which Kenny has a nose bleed.

"You and I, we're a team. We ain't gonna let nobody stop us from reaching the Pokémon League."

Kenny blushes and smiles. "I know... but then there's the Gym Leaders. We have to defeat them first. Then there are other trainers who will participate, and we have to defeat them too. Too many trainers to beat. Too many Pokémon to catch, to many secrets to unveil…"

Sid nods his head. "I know. Tag team 'em and we'll surely win. We gotta keep our heads up, no matter what the problem is. The only problem is Brock right now."

They stop. They had reached Route 2. It was practically empty. In a distance, Kenny can see Red and some girl he couldn’t recognize walk back to Pewter City.

Kenny wipes his nosebleed and faces Sid.

"We could train here."

Sid nods and they run off to the tall grass.

In a distance though, a Pokémon was staring at them from afar, ready to strike. But it held it's murderous intentions for another time.









~~~~~~Somewhere in Kanto

The Boss was looking at the dead body. The back of the carcass’ head was bleeding. The bullet when clean through. He smiles as Ariana and Archer stood before the Boss. The two admins look at each other and then turn back to the body.

The Boss steps over the body and looks at Ariana then at Archer.

"You two have been very successful in missions. You’ve proved it right before my eyes by killing this spy. Maybe I should make you two my higher ranking officers."

"Boss?" Archer questions while Arianna stares at her husband in shock.

"No longer Admins. You two are my Executives now," The Boss says lighting a cigar.

Ariana and Archer exchange worried looks.

"Then... who will be your Admins?" Arianna questions.

The Boss smiles and looks at the dead body.

"Definitely not Jessie or James, those two idiots are pathetic. I don't trust Tyson yet, his loyalty is still to be proven. Attila and Hun disgust me. Annie and Oakley are my ranking assassins.”

Ariana walks up to The Boss. "What about Domino?"

The Boss smiles at that. "Yes, Domino has proven to be helpful. Not to mention that she is a great actor. I have thought about Viper as well. It is settled then. Viper and Domino will be my new Admins."

Archer leaves leaving Ariana and the Boss alone. He closes his eyes and waits for the question.

"Will you talk about Silver now? Making me Executive won't make me change my mind."

The Boss looks at her.

"Why do you care so much about that boy? He is not one of us. He plays too much."

Ariana grabs the Boss' arm. "He is only ten years old! Leaving in Johto was a big mistake. He will think that we abandoned him!"

The Boss grabs Ariana by her hair and pulls her close to his face.

"Listen when I say this: Silver cannot be involved with this. I don't want him to get hurt. It's better for him to be somewhere where I know he will be safe from all the destruction. Kanto is too dangerous."

He lets her go. He starts walking away, but Arianna stops him.

"What about Mars?! Don't tell me you forgot about her?! She's with the enemy because of you! Kanto is too dangerous because of you! All of this is happening because of you! We could have done things differently! We could have done so much more!"

The Boss doesn't look at her.

"I know that. It's too late to change it now. I’ve become more, than I was before Arianna. And it will stay this way forever."

Ariana shakes her head and leaves.

The Boss stares into the darkness.

There is nothing he could do. At least he could prevent a gang war. At least he could do that.





~~~~~~Sid and Kenny

Kenny and Sid had trained their Pokémon as well. They now sat on a bench on Route 2, and they admired all the playfully playing Pokémon around the area.

Kenny was sitting on the opposite side of the bench. He looks over at Sid who was smiling and looking at the sky. Kenny slowly went closer and closer to Sid. Eventually, he was a few inches away from him. Kenny can feel his nose bleed start to commence.

Sid looks over at Kenny. He blinks twice.

Wasn’t he sitting all the way over there a second ago? Weird. At least he’s closer to talk to.

"Hey dude, I was wondering, what do we do after we finish the Pokémon Journey?" Sid asked Kenny who was looking through his Pokedex.

Kenny looks at Sid and blushes when he suddenly realized that he was way too close to him. Kenny looks away.

"Um…I-I don't know, how about we g-go to Hoenn?"

Sid smiles at that.

"Duuude! That'll be so badass! Let's hurry up and train harder then," Sid said.

Kenny nods his head. “That is the initial plan.

"How about a battle?" Sid suddenly states with a smile.

Kenny's nose begins to bleed. He quickly takes out a napkin.

"Of course! I accept your challenge. For how much are we talking about?" Kenny asked.

"How about $150?" Sid suggests.

Kenny agrees.

"You two are going to battle?"

It was Lacy.

She sits on a log that was a few feet away from where they were sitting at. Sid can feel his face turn hot.

"Yeah, wanna watch?" Sid asked.

"I'll watch you battle anytime Sid," she said with a flirtatious way and this makes Sid noticeably blush.

Kenny closes his fist and looks away. "Let's just get on with the battle, shall we?"



Sid and Kenny stood a few feet away from each other. Kenny adjusts his glasses. Sid smiles widely.

“You ready Ken?”

“Ready when you are Sid!”

"Alright Wooper, let's do this!" Sid shouts as he throws his Pokeball.

"Deerling, let us battle!" Kenny exclaims as he does the same.

Both Pokémon come out. Wooper and Deerling stare at each other.

Sid was smiling. His first match against his pal, he isn't going to lose so easily.

Kenny on the other hand was worried. His first Pokémon Trainer Battle is with Sid. Kenny can only hope to not look like a fool.

Just as they were about to say a command, they hear a pop and smoke suddenly surrounds them. The three trainers start to cough.

"What the hell?! What's happening?!" Sid wails as he continued to cough and he then shields his eyes.

They hear some Pokémon screaming, and when the smoke clears, Deerling and Wooper were gone!

"Hey what the hell?!" Lacy exclaims.

They hear laughter. They see a man and a woman standing next to a cage which contained Sid and Kenny's Pokémon.

"Hey what's the big deal?!" Sid angrily remarks.

"Aww is poor little fat boy mad? Haha! Thanks for your Pokémon!" the man said flipping them off.

Kenny and Sid instantly recognized that outfit. It was Team Rocket!

“Who are you people?! What’s the deal with stealing their Pokémon?!” Lacy commands as she stood up and ran up to Sid and Kenny.

“They’re a gang of bad people who steal Pokémon for a living!” Kenny explains.

Lacy shakes her head. She readies her Pokeball.

"Oh no you don't! Go Snivy!" Lacy cries and her Pokémon comes out when the Pokeball touches the ground.

"A Unova Pokémon! The Boss would surely like that one! Go, Grimer!" the man said as he released his Pokémon. The Grimer raises its arms.

Grimer! It cries.

"Go Sandshrew!" Kenny says.

"Go Squirtle!" Sid exclaims.

The Rocket woman throws her Pokeball to the floor and an Onix comes out. It roars wildly.

"Onix, Bind!" the woman ordered. The Pokémon takes ahold of Snivy and crushes it.

"Grimer, Poison Gas!" the man commands as he points at Sandshrew.

Purple smoke surrounds Sandshrew, but it hardly flinched.

"Sandshrew, use Swift!" Kenny cries out.

"Squirtle, Aqua Jet!" Sid exclaims.

Sandshrew closes its arms and then releases them and yellow stars fly towards Grimer where it is hit. Squirtle flips its tail and streams of water hit the Onix which screams and releases Snivy. The Pokémon falls to the ground, but shook of the pain.

"Thanks, hot-stuff! Now Snivy, use Vine Whip!" Lacy said when her Snivy was released.

Two vines escape out of Snivy and slap Onix which was super effective.

Onix stumbles back.

"Onix, Bind it now!" the woman yells.

Onix tries to bind Sandshrew with its tail but missed.

"Grimer, Mud Slap!" Grimer grabs mud and throws it towards Sandshrew. Sandshrew stumbles back, but stands. It wasn’t very effective though.

"Snivy, Tackle!"

Snivy runs towards Grimer, hits it, and in which Grimer slides away a few centimeters. It shakes of the pain.

"Sandshrew, Rapid Spin!" Sandshrew prepares itself and spins around and lunges itself to Grimer. Grimer falls down and faints.

There was a ding, which indicated that Sandshrew is now in Level 13.

"Onix, Tackle!" Onix use its tail and hits Snivy and it flies of to Pewter City.

"Snivy!" Lacy yells as she runs after it.

"You've done it this time! Squirtle, Water Gun!" Sid angrily yelled

Squirtle puffs in air and a long jet of water hits Onix and it gives a final yell before it falls to the floor. It fainted.

"Aww yeah!" Sid said snapping his fingers. Kenny smiles at his victory.

The Rocket Grunts look at each other.

"It's over Team Rocket!" Sid cries out to them.

"Not yet you little fat ***!" the man exclaims and he takes out a gun.

Kenny and Sid hug each other in fear.

"Th-that's not fair! We beat you fair and square!" Sid said with a shaky voice.

The man laughs. "Bad guys remember?"

Suddenly police sirens are heard and were heading their way.

"Dammit! Let's go Hun!"

"What about the Pokémon Attila?"

"Forget them, let's go!"

They run off to Viridian Forest.

The police get of their cars and run off after them.

"Wow, I can't believe that we almost died again!" Kenny said.

"I have a feeling that we're going to be seeing Team Rocket a lot on this journey." Sid implies.

Kenny nods.

They suddenly realize that they were still hugging each other. Sid and Kenny break apart.

Sid felt embarrassed and looked away while Kenny grabs napkins and cleans his nosebleed.

"Sid!"

It was Lacy.

She runs up to him, Snivy close behind her.

"Thank God you guys are ok!" she said.

"Yup, ain't no gang members gonna stop us, right Ken?" Sid said elbowing him.

"Ouch," Kenny said rubbing his arm.

"You were so brave Sid!" Lacy said hugging him.

Sid could feel his face turn hot. A blush is present.

Kenny's mouth drops.

"Well, I mean, Kenny helped too..." Sid said.

"I know but you looked way more badass," Lacy said.

Kenny falls to the ground.

Sid and Lacy exchange looks and Lacy blushes. She turns her head away.

"Well, I've got to go, so I'll see you later!" Lacy said and she walks away.

Sid was staring at Lacy's behind as she walked away. Sid sinks to the floor smiling and drooling.

Kenny looks away mad.

Great, now that Lacy girl is surely after Sid. Just what he needed.

"I think you need a moment," Kenny said and he walks towards the caged Pokémon. He opens it. The Pokémon cheer. He returns Deerling back to its Pokeball, and Wooper runs off to Sid.

Kenny sighs and sits on the cage.

He sees Sid dancing around like a maniac.

"Kenny?"

It was Leaf.

She sits next to him on the cage. "What's this doing here? And like, what's wrong with Sid?"

Kenny explains everything that happened.

"Oh....." Leaf looks away.

Then she stands up.

"Kenny, I need to know something important. Do you like Sid?"

Kenny was set back on this question. He nervously looks away.

"Well.... um.... he's a good guy...."

Leaf wasn't satisfied.

"No idiot, as in do you like-like him?"

Kenny looks at the dirt and slowly nods his head.

"Does he know that you're gay?" Leaf questions.

"No, and I'm not planning on telling him anytime soon. He actually wanted to go with me on a journey. With me, Leaf. Me! I’m most certainly annoying with my smartness… And yet he still wished to travel with me around Kanto. I'm scared that if I tell him, he'll leave...."

Leaf shakes her head.

"Kenny you need to step up your game. I know a few things about guys, and well one of them is what they're interested in. Sid seems to be interested in you, and he worries about you. This Lacy girl is only bad news to you, and that's why I'm going to help you get your game on!" Leaf said raising her fist up in the air.

Kenny stares.

"Do you still like Blue?"

Leaf falls to the ground.

She gets up. She taps her fingers together and does a baby face. "You still remember what I told you back in Trainer School....."

Kenny stands up. "Of course I do! So why haven't you made a move on him?"

Leaf looks at Kenny then at the floor and kicks the dirt. "Well shucks, I don't even know. I guess I'll do that after Blue has decided to stop being such a jerk with everyone else. All he cares about is defeating Red! I mean come on! I worry about him sometimes, it’s not healthy."

Kenny smiles.

"I have studied Blue from afar, and no not because I like him or anything, but because when you told me that you liked him, I wanted to see how he reacts around you. He is totally in love with you," Kenny said smirking.

"Eee! You really think so?!" Leaf said smiling widely.

Kenny nods.

"Well it's settled then! We'll help each other out!" Leaf extends her hand.

Kenny shakes it.

"Well, it's getting late. Tomorrow, I'm going to fight Brock," Leaf said walking away.

"Wait, are you sure you're ready to face him again?"

Leaf smiles. "Of course. And besides, I have a surprise that will surely give him a kick!"

Kenny looks confused and Leaf winks at him before she leaves. Kenny smiles to himself.

Sid walks up to Kenny. He sets his arm around Kenny's shoulders.

"You're hitting on Leaf aren’t ya little buddy?" Sid questions.

Kenny blushes and said, "Something of like that."

Sid and Kenny stare at the sunset.

"Well dude, tomorrow's a new day."

"Yes Sid, yes it is. So, are you... hitting on Lacy?"

Sid looks at Kenny's eyes. "I don't know yet. I think she likes me. If she does, I'll hit on her if you know what I mean."

Kenny blushes.

They look into each others eyes as the sun continued to set...

Kenny clears his throat and looks away as Sid looked away too. Still with his arm around Kenny, Sid walked with his pal to the Pokémon Center.

"You know Sid, not to be any kind of romantic feeling towards you at all, but.... it's nice that you and I are hanging out."

"I know how you feel Ken. I know how you feel," Sid said.

Kenny sighs. He doesn't really.





~~~~~~Somewhere in Kanto

The Boss slaps Meowth to the floor.

"I told you to keep following that child; can't you see that his Pikachu is rare? Very rare?"

Meowth covers his head. "Please Boss, I promise I won't stop following him!"

The Boss looks at James and Jessie.

"You two better not fail me again. I don't want to see you until you've taken that Pikachu!" The Boss exclaims.

"Understood!" the two Rocket Grunts say.

"Now get the hell out of my face!"

The trio walk out of The Boss’ room.

"Meowth, why do you even rely yourself to The Boss if he keeps mistreating you?" James whispers.

"Meowth! That's none of your business!" Meowth runs of with tears.

"James, I think we should try to go easier on Meowth," Jessie said.

"What do you mean? He's the one who has to boss us around now."

Jessie and James shrug and walk away.
