Sorry for the crap Title Guys :p

"Tommy!" ,"Tommy!" Screeched a young girl shaking an older looking boy who was lying in his bed.
"What is it Annabell?" He Asked Ferociously, obviously angry as the young girl had woken him up
"Today is the day, we are finally getting our first pokemon!" The girl Screeched "Mum told me to wake you up!”


“How did I forget” The boy asked himself quickly getting up and grabbing some folded clothes at the end of his bed and walked into The bathroom. The girl lied on her bed and daydreamed about barking her new pokemon orders, she wondered what kind of pokemon it was going to be, possibly a Metapod or even a Tentacool? Older looking women walked into the room “Annie, you still are not ready? You can use the other bathroom, go have a shower and get dressed!” Annie got up and walked out the door. Tom Looked in the mirror, he had blue eyes with mid length black hair, he dried himself with the towel, put on his new clothes A blue pair of tight jeans and a White shirt over the top with his trusty blue hat. He walked down the Family hallway and began Slamming on a door


“You nearly done in their Annabell? We should really get going.” “Nearly, she said drying her long blonde hair , putting on her new clothes as well , a pair of tight jeans similar to her brothers and a blue singlets , smiling at herself in the mirror she walked out of the room , “Ready!” She giggled to her brother. He simply smiled back and walked out putting his black shoes on, Annabell had the same pair but her pair was white.


“Mum, we better get going, we will call you when we get out of town!” “WAAAIIITTT!” She screamed sprinting out towards the door with a black backpack and a Blue shoulderpack, handing the black bag to Tommy, While the Blue one went to Annie. “You better call me, every night I want to hear about all of your adventures!” Tommy Smiled not knowing what to say, “Annie quickly splurged out “Mum we both love you but we really have to get going, we will chat later!”



Tommy and Annabell began walking out the door and taking a left on the path. Tommy was 15 years old, while Annabell was 14 years old. Annie was born with an unfortunate illness which demanded a lot of time and care, her mother only just allowed her to get a pokemon, Tommy did not get a pokemon until he was 15 because he did not want his sister travelling alone, They lived in a secluded part of the Johto Region, They lived in a small town called Freshwater, everyone in this town relied on a young man named Knight to get there first pokemon.



As Tommy and Annabell approached the building knight had wished to meet them at, a much older looking man with long brown hair and a thick beard in a expensive looking suit rushed pass them knocking any to the ground “sorry in a rush!’' he said as he kept running. “You alright Annie?” Tommy asked, “I will be fine” She replied. After about 10 more minutes of uneventful walking They arrived at knight’s building, Knight Came out the front door with the man to his left “Ahh Tommy and Annie so glad you have arrived, This is Carter he is a first time trainer as well!” he sighed as he pulled out 3 small packages out of what appeared to be a laptop Case “I have Assembled a Package for each of you, they each contain one pokedex, five pokeballs and one potion, Now if you three will follow me back inside I can give you each a pokemon!” He said excitedly walking back inside. Annie immediately ripped open her package leaving the brown paper in a trail behind her. While Carter Stuffed his paper in his pocket, Tommy left his closed, ready to open it later.




“Ok Trainers, Before me I have 3 pokeballs, I would like you each to select one!” He said with a huge grin on his face, This just exaggerated the thought of how nice Knight was in Tommy’s Head. “Ladies First” Knight said while grinning towards Annie. She Stood forward knowing this was a huge decision; she picked up the pokeball diagonally opposite to her and said, “This is the one” Happy with her choice she stood back. Knight then said “Carter I would know like you too pick , ‘’don’t mind if I do!” he said stepping forwards to grab the pokeball diagonally opposite to him. The only Trainer left was Tommy looking to his left and seeing his younger sister holding the pokeball up to her ear to see if she could hear anything, then he looked to his right and saw Carter sniffing the pokeball he had picked.




Tommy Leaned forward and grabbed his pokeball. “I Best be off” Said Carter rushing out the door, “That man is always in a rush” Said Knight quickly, Tommy and Annie Slowly Walked out of the lab ‘each holding there new pokemon in there hand “Come on out Buddy” Said Annie throwing her pokeball up into the air, out came a small green four legged monster “Chika Chika” it said, Annie Grabbed her pokedex and scanned it right away “Chikorita the Leaf Headed pokemon it uses the leaf on it’s head to determine the temperature and humidity. It loves to sunbathe.” “Nice! Let’s see your’s now Tommy?” Annie Asked, Tommy Rubbed his Top Lip before realising the pokeball from his grasp dropping it on the ground. Out came a small Echidna with flames instead of spikes “Cynda Cynda Quill!” Tommy Pointed his new pokedex he had unwrapped towards his new friend “Cyndaquill the flamebacked pokemon it has a timid nature. If it is startle, the flames on its back burn even more ferociously”





“Let’s get moving!” Annie said to her brother and new friends, as they where walking down the path the two new young trainers realised that there pokemon where Getting on well. “Annie, Looking forward to our adventure?” Tommy asked , She replied Happily “Yeah , I am looking forward to cheering for you in gym Battles , Doing contests , making new friends!” Just as they got out of town a Small Brown Ball Shaped Pokemon Jumped out of the ground Trying to startle the traveller’s “Looks Like I got my first Battle!” Tommy said Excitedly , Cyndaquill use Tackle , Attacking the Ball Shaped Pokemon , It replied with a Quick Attack , and a scratch , Cyndaquill Growled and used a Ember even though it was not told too. Tommy Quickly Threw out a Pokeball and captured the pokemon “I did it I captured a pokemon” Tommy Said Realising the pokemon and scanning it with his pokedex “Sentret the Large Tailed pokemon it has a very nervous Nature. It stands up high on it’s tail so it can scan wide areas” After Introducing Sentret to the rest of the “Family” Tommy Decided it was time for them to get some sleep , he pitched the tent and Set up his own sleeping bag , he then Pitched his sister’s tent and went to lye in his bed. Just as he got to sleep he got woken by his younger sister Yelling “Tommy! , Tommy Wake up!” Tommy Thinking he was having a timeslip woke up to realise all his sister wanted was help with her sleeping bag. He set up her sleeping bag before going back to his tent for a well deserved Rest.”

Thanks Guys , All Feedback will be greatly Appreciated ^_^

Arrgghh! Massive wall of text! Before somebody speaks, you have to start a new paragraph. Even if nobody is speaking, start a new one just to space everything out a bit. Right now, its very difficult for anybody to read this, let alone leave a decent comment on it. Add a decent number of paragraphs immediately.

Thanks. PocketmonMaster.
 
I do hope the Part 1 of the title doesn't mean you're gonna put this up in separate threads each time...

I missed the textblock bit but in fixing it you've resulted in an odd paragraphing style. So just taking your first two:

""Tommy" ,"!Tommy!" Screeched a young girl shaking an older looking boy who was lying in his bed.
"What is it Annabell?" He Asked Ferociously, obviously angry as the young girl had woken him up
"Today is the day, we are finally getting our first pokemon!" The girl Screeched "Mum told me to wake you up!”
“How did I forget” The boy asked himself quickly getting up and grabbing some folded clothes at the end of his bed and walked into The bathroom.

The girl lied on her bed and daydreamed about barking her new pokemon orders, she wondered what kind of pokemon it was going to be, possibly a Metapod or even a Tentacool?

Older looking women walked into the room “Annie, you still are not ready? You can use the other bathroom, go have a shower and get dressed!”

Annie got up and walked out the door. Tom Looked in the mirror, he had blue eyes with mid length black hair, he dried himself with the towel, put on his new clothes A blue pair of tight jeans and a White shirt over the top with his trusty blue hat. He walked down the Family hallway and began Slamming on a door

I've not done any edits aside from some paragraphs; only use a double drop for things like scene changes and single dropped space for regular paragraphs or it does look extremely wierd one after the other. There's a bit about paragraphing in the advice for Aspiring Authoors thread stickied at the top of the forums, ya know to save me explaining again.

I've bolded a few points as well. You've got a habit of randomly captialisng words (Where really only names, Pokemon and start of sentances should have them) and a few wrong variations of a word. Like in one you used women which is plural sted of woman or using lied (false truth) instead of layed (to lay down).


You've also got a very stop start flow going, pretty much reading like: This happened. Then this happened. Then another thing happened. There's no flow between the sentances which creates a sorda stagnanting effect, notably all rookie writers seem to fall in that trap so it's not just you. If I nab another random bit of your chapter:

“Looks Like I got my first Battle!” Tommy said Excitedly , Cyndaquill use Tackle , Attacking the Ball Shaped Pokemon , It replied with a Quick Attack , and a scratch , Cyndaquill Growled and used a Ember even though it was not told too.
Your version.

“Looks like I've got my first battle!” shrieked with excitement as he grabbed for his own battler. "Go Cyndaquil!"
As the ball clatters with the ground, a shrill cry came from the emerging Cyndaquil snout, prepped and ready for battle.

"All right, use a Tackle attack now!" Shouted Tommy whilst pointing his finger defiantly at the enemy.
The mouse’s fur bristled with flames before it kicked away from the ground with it’s stubby claws and launched right at the brown creature’s chest.
The little scout was far faster on her paws though, striking with a flip of its tail in a quick attack and grounding the smaller Pokemon with a thud. Chirping with a sense of victory looming it launched at the downed one with claws bared.

The little fire type growled, though winded it was not going to go down without a fight! Managing to roll onto its back, it glared at the startled Sentret before letting loose a blast of embers at the vulnerable attacker sending it hurtling back to the ground.

Man it feels so wierd writting this style, not done so in YEARS (What what, past tense?! AUUUGH) so it's a little squiggly admittedly but hopefully you get the idea. Tried to keep it close to how you've written so it still seems approachable (I'm a desciption-a-holic after all and think the last thing you need is one of my ramble battles.) but hopefully you can still see what a difference it's made.

And my grammar sucks as well, it sinks in with practice ;) So if you have a think about this and read Advice for Aspiring Authors as well it should be able to nudge you better onto the right track. Everybody has to start somewhere but it's up to you how fast you're gonna improve.
