Chapter 1: A Bruised Eevee
"..." ~Bzzt~
"........" ~Bzzzt!~
".............."~Blugh!!!~
Porygon zaps Hisui off the bed.
"What the hell Beta?!?"
Porygon scurries down to the breakfast table. Hisui walks downstairs in a groggy daze as 15 children run around. From big to small, the children wreak havoc and play as Hisui walks by. He looks over to his left as 4 small children are jumping on Porygon.
~Brrr...~ It looks as if it were to cry. "Poor thing, come on, digitize back into my cell..." Porygon glowed as its pixels were send into Hisui's cellular phone.
The eldest of 16 children, Hisui assumed a lot of responsibilities. His mother being a Pokemon nurse, she often was at work at the town's pokemon center. Hisui's father roamed the world as a professional pokemon trainer. He would visit the family annually, which made his visits worthwhile. Hisui's father was very rich, and provides a lavish life for the family. Hisui did not have 1 brother or sister by blood. All of his siblings were adopted by his parents. Loving and compassionate, they cared for all of their children
Hisui was at a crossroads in his 14 year old life. For as long as he could talk, he wanted to raise a pokemon for his own. His skills as a trainer and care taker grew each year. Books and hands on experience in the pokemon center trained him. His parents made a deal with him. "If you can keep one pokemon safe, cared for, and in good enough shape, on your 15th birthday, we will give you your own trainer case, pokedex, and legalize you to become your own pokemon trainer."
After Hisui and all his siblings eat breakfast and got dressed, he walked them off to school and hugged each one of them. Every sibling cried, they did not know when he would be back. But he gave them each a different berry to plant and told them, he'll always be back as long as the berries grow healthy.
Hisui then rushed over to his secret base, located in Eterna Forest. He pushed aside a mossy boulder, and entered his base. Decorated in grass pokemon accessories, Hisui logged in to his laptop, messaging his friend on messenger.
Green_Guy333: Yo, I should be leaving today! What did you're parents say?
Wizard: My dad is all for me leaving to become a trainer, but my mom thinks it's too dangerous...
Green_Guy333: My dad said he'd talk to her for you. He always convinces your mom to let you go on trips with us.
Wizard: Idk... This is much longer...
Green_Guy333: Hope for the best!
~THUD!~
Hisui looks out the window and sees a tree crash in the distance. "I wonder what’s going on..."
Running out his window, Hisui extends his arm. "Digitize, Beta 1.0!" Porygon swings its legs in the air as it levitates forward. Hisui and Porygon creep atop a tree branch, looking down to the scene. "Damned Eevee!" A mysterious man dressed in a crimson outfit, with a small cape, a skully with small black horns, and a 'M' patched on his chest, kicks the defenseless pokemon. "Damn it! Stop refusing to take this serum. Our researchers say it will force u to evolve into a new evolution. I'm eager to see how you will react. All the other test subjects died, but you were our strongest and most focused Eevee. Now take the serum!"
As he swings his arm downwards, Beta 1.0 and Hisui spring into action. "Psybeam!" Beta 1.0 fires a fuchsia hued beam of waving energy. The syringe shattered and the man staggered. "What!?! Who's there?" Hisui quickly leapt down from the tree, running. "This is for the poor little Eevee!" Hisui swung his leg upwards right into his pokeballs, and grabbed the eevee, running back to his base.
The eevee growled, but was too weak to do anything. As Hisui and Beta1.0 were running, Hisui applied ointment from his bag. "This will make the pain stop. Beta, access cellphone protocol, 1105. Call Stefan." Hisui reached his base and placed the eevee down and a seat cushion made of a soft grass. Stefan answered as Hisui spoke on his bluetooth, "Dude, how far are you from my secret base? Ok, that's real close... Just get here as fast as you can, it's an emergency. No I'm not leaving yet, just meet me here... I'm going to need back up..."
Chapter 2: Charmander's Secret
Stefan was not to far from Hisui's base. His own base was on the opposite side of the forest. Grabbing his two pokeballs and backpack, Stefan dashed out of the base.
Stefan has been Hisui's childhood friend. The two share an equal love for caring and battling pokemon. Unlike Hisui, Stefan was allowed by his parents to become a pokemon trainer. At the age of 5, his father gave him a brave Charmander. A baby of his own starter, Charizard, Stefan's father hoped he would have a great adventure and make many friends. His mother also gave him a pokemon. She gave him a rash oddish, a baby from her Vileplume. Their family was prestigious for training many people to become Savage trainers.
Savage trainers battle with raw emotion and are able to channel their energies with their pokemon. When in sync, the pokemon increase in strength tremendously, but the trainer suffers damage similar to their pokemon. As Stefan grew older, his father had less and less students in his dojo. Struggling to pay bills, Stefan and his parents own the town pokemart, living a average lifestyle.
"Come on out, Jack and Bush!" Charmander and oddish run in unison with their trainer. The man in crimson walks to the secret base with a Houndour. "Little idiot didn't think we'd use Oder Sleuth to find him. Use Smog to lure him out!" The houndour inhaled, then exhaled a poisonous haze into the base. "Wanna play hide n seek? Fine, use Ember!" The houndour blew flames into the base, igniting the gas. ~Boom!?!~
Enraged, Stefan clenched his fist as he and his pokemon glowed a red aura. "How dare you kill my best friend! Go, Bush! Use Stun Spore!" Waving it's leaves, oddish sprinkled the man in crimson and the houndour is a yellow powder. "-Cough, Cough- Damn kid, I'll kill you..." He summons his second pokemon from his pokeball, "Tear him in half with Shadow Claw!" Before Stefan or his pokemon could react, the sound of slicing can be heard. The dust clears as Stefan is on the ground, unharmed and the enemy Sableye is revealed. Hisui jumps down from a tree, "If I didn't plan ahead, I would be in that plume of smoke. Stefan, thanks for coming, because this will prove if we are ready to be trainers. We cannot falter when destiny beakons..."
Stefan stands, clenching his fist as he calls oddish back into its pokeball. The eevee rest on the mossy boulder near the ashes of Hisui's base. The crimson man inhale's a Parlyz Heal and sprays his houndour. "You think you can handle a battle with me? I might be a grunt, but I'm still a force to be reckoned with! Go! Double Take Down!" Sableye and houndour run, then begin to charge Beta 1.0 and Jack in a full body tackle. Jack was slammed back, but clawed the ground, regaining it's balance. Houndour passed right through Beta 1.0, "That Shadow Claw you used on Stefan, not only did I defend against it, but Beta used it to convert it's type into a ghost type.
Charmander's flame blazed as Stefan roared, "Roast him with Flame Thrower!" Jack leapt, spewing huge flames from it's mouth. The flames trailed into a circle, trapping the crimson man and his pokemon. "There's no escape! Let's combine our attacks! Beta, use Shock Wave!" "Jack, use Fire Spin!" The shock wave glided up the fire spin and zipped all around the inner circle as the flames from the previous flame thrower turned into a flaming electric storm.
The flames die out, as the heavily injured staggers, "I won't give up! All those flames made my houndour store enough energy! Do it now!" Houndour began glowing intensely as it grew larger, grew longer fangs and claws, and two horns on it's head. "Grrrr...." The crimson man rubbed the top of his newly evolved Houndoom's head, kicking his Sableye to the side as it barely struggles to stand. "Use Feint Attack, take 'em all out!"
As he cackles a villainous howl, the houndoom disappears in a flash. A loud thud echoes, as Beta 1.0 is knocked out the second it's hit. Then jack falls, after a concussive tackle. Next is Stefan, who is hit from his blind side. Hisui, terrible afraid of dogs, staggers back in fear as houndoom lashes about, ready to tear him apart. Spiraling all the energy it could, eevee leapt from the mossy boulder and tackled houndoom with a Quick Attack. The houndoom slams into Sableye, knocking them both out. "Damn useless pokemon! I'll snap your little necks! Akk...."
A Scyther lowers it's blade as blood spews from the man's wound. "Don't worry Hisui, we'll take it from here..."
Back at the pokemon center, both of the boy's parents discuss matters. Nurse Joy gives them both their pokemon, "You two fought valiantly! Here, your pokemon are all better." Hisui's father, Mike, walks to them and shake's his head, "It's official, you two are now registered pokemon trainers." The two cheer as they are handed their pokedexs. "I'm going to drop you guys off in Violet City in Johto. You can go where ever you want and have great adventures. Just be sure to look after one another. Come now, my Fearow is waiting."
The two say good-bye to their respected families as they board Fearow's back. Stefan's father runs from their house and hands him a cd. "This TM will help you in your journey. Make me proud son. Carry our family name to new heights..." In tears, the boys bid their families good bye as Fearow zooms into the horizon.
Chapter 3: How to catch a Flying Pokemon
As Fearow lands, a cloud of dust thickens. It's 30 ft wingspan spreads as Hisui and Stefan leap off. "This way will lead you two to Violet City." says Hisui's father as he begins to gain altitude, "You two will hear less of me as I have my own agenda! Hope you two get stronger! See you later!" Fearow zooms into the horizon.
Hisui's flips through his notebook of pokemon notes. His notes contain detailed information for pokemon, including location, species, and battle information. "Hmm, nothing of my interest in this area..." Stefan looks over in his notes, "I thought you said you were done being a pokemon research rookie." Hisui nods, "I am, but in here, I have my own personal notes from the exotic pokemon I saw in mom's pokemon center and from textbooks." Stefan laughed; "All you need is this!" he begins knocking on his own head. "No thank you, you have a thick head full of hot air..."
Before he can punch Hisui, a wild pidgey lands in a patch of grass. Hisui looks at his clock, "Hmm, 10 am. Morning pidgeys will flock until 6pm. With the occational bug pokemon, caterpie, metapod, weedle, and kakuna. Come out, Beta!" Aiming his cell phone at the pidgey, Hisui calls out his porygon. ~Wrrr!~ "You going to train with me?" Stefan raises his pokeball, "Hell yeah! But since we're Violet City gym, I'd wanna catch a flying type pokemon." Hisui nods as the two charge the baby pidgey. As it flies away, in fear, they are surprised to see an entire flock of over 35 pidgey, all surprised and angered.
Hisui and Stefan called out their other two pokemon. "We need back up, Emerald!" "Join this brawl, Bush!" Both grass pokemon let loose a battle cry as the 6 back to each other, Hisui cracks his knuckles, "Let's do this!" The two teams sepurate and begin dropping pidgey like bugs to a fire. One after another, the pidgeys began to cry in pain as they fled after defeat, until one was cornered. The two boys and their pokemon gasped for their breathe. Each pokemon had more than half energy left. The pidgey began to glow, "In it's excitement, this must be the leader, evolving to protect the flock. If we catch him, they others will fly away, if not, it doesn't look to good for us..."
The injured pidgey return with Oran Berry juice seeping from their gullets, ready for a round two. The leader pidgey completes it's evolution process into a pidgeotto. A flap of it's strong wings knock the 6 back a yard before it takes flight. The other pidgey in the trees begin to stir with excitement as they begin to encircle the team, preventing escape. "You reap what you sow, right? Looks like we have to finish this..." Hisui raises his hand, but Stefan halts him, blazing in aura with a serious look on his face.
"We not only scared their children, but we had no business coming here. They were grazing and we interrupted that. I had no idea that this is what my power can do." The pidgeotto's eyes swelled with tears as Stefan's did two, "He feels my passion to battle and I feel his passion for protecting others. This meeting is fate, it's the same way I felt when Bush and Jack were born..." Charmander and oddish nods in confirmation. Hisui returns his pokemon, "Go for it dude..."
Pidgeotto screeches as it flaps it's strong wings, preparing for battle. Stefan returns oddish, "This would be suicide at your level, so come back. Me and Jack will handle this." The two begin to blaze their auras as charmander grinds it's teeth, "Jack, uses Flame Thrower!" After a brief inhale, Jack exhales a thick flame, but hits an after image of pidgeotto, as it rushes for a Quick Attack.
Jack kneels on one knee in pain as he stands, awaiting Stefan's orders. "Use Fire Spin! Trap his with your flames!" Charmander began running under pidgeotto in circles as it spewed flames from it's mouth. Before pidgeotto realized what it was doing and could fly away, charmander roars, instantly creating a powerful pillar of flames. Just as Stefan began to cheer, the flames quickly diffused.
Pidgeotto furiously flapped it's wings, alternating it's wing beat. Hisui yells at Stefan, "Be careful! Alternating wing beats such as those will create up and down drafts! Judging by this temperature, it'll soon create a ..." Pidgeotto lets out a screech as it whips it's wings harder, creating a furious Twister. "So you know a dragon type move? Now I have seen your ace and have decided to catch you. Let's see if dad's TM was worth using.
Pidgeotto flaps on final time as it let's it's twister loose on Jack. "He's open his heat to us Jack... We have to make him a part of our family... Let's open our hearts to him! Rock Slide!" Charmander slams it's tail into the ground, then roars at them, launching them into the twister. The force was so powerful, it was forced back onto pidgeotto and smashed it with stones and rocks. As it plummets to the ground, Stefan tosses a Pokeball, catching the pidgeotto. "Welcome to our family..."
Chapter 4: Pokemaniac Juan
Stefan kneels, gasping for energy as charmander collapses. He returns Jack to his pokeball, "Time to go to the pokemon center..." The pidgey, furious from their leader's defeat charged the boys. "Shock wave!" A trail of electricity zapped all of the pidgey like a connect the dots game. All 34 pidgey collapsed in exhaustion as a trainer walks from behind a tree. "I thought it was weird for a flock to search the forest for Oran Berries in such a hurry and rush into an open field. But after seeing that spectacular battle of honor, I can see why!"
A 6'1" guy walks out. Scruffy hair and a shirt with the three Kanto starters can be seen on him. "I'm Juan, this is my Vigoroth." Vigoroth leaps from the tree branch it was hiding on and let out a vicious roar, beating his chest, 'VIGOROTH!?!?' "I'm Hisui and this is Stefan."
The three boys talk as they walk to the pokemon center. "Thanks for helping us find it, Juan." Juan nods his head, not a problem! How about a double battle when your pokemon are all healed!" The two nodded in excitement, "Sure!"
The sun shined strongly as the three ran to the town's center, a great location for battling. "Go, Emerald!" "Go, Jack!" Juan nods his head and mutters to himself as he examines their pokemon. "A fine coat on Emerald, crisp tail, healthy. Smooth scales on charmander, burning flame, healthy. Sweet, my analysis is done. Go, Vigoroth and Scizor!" Hisui leaps in excitement, that's one of my favorite pokemon! where did you find a scyther!?!" Juan scoffed, "I'll spill the info when you've lost..." In anger, Hisui clenches his fist, "We will crush you!"
Juan raises his arm, putting the other in his pocket, "Scizor, Bullet Punch. Vigoroth, Crush Claw." Scizor quickly dispatched in front of Hisui and pummeled him with it's thick pincers. Vigoroth leapt in behind Jack, placed his claws gently on him, then forcefully pressed down and slashed greatly, creating a vicious wound. Jack yelped in pain. "Emerald, use Magical Leaf! Defend Jack!" Leafeon dashed in front of his ally, swirling it's tail, creating a plethora of different colored leafs smashing into the foes. Stefan fumbled through his back pack to get a Super Potion and sprayed it on Jack, healing him and cleansing the healed wound.
As the three battled, a crowd thickened around them. Cheering for this winning side. "Damn, hang in there Vigoroth and Scizor. Use Fury Swipes and Aerial Ace!" As they charged forward, Hisui pat Stefan's shoulder, "Let's wrap this up! Helping Hand!" Leafeon pranced around charmander, cheering it on and getting the crowd amped up. It then smashed the ground in unison with Jack, "End it with Rock Slide!" Jack roared, the crowd moved from behind Juan, sending the rocks and stones in their direction. Both of Juan's pokemon fainted simultaneously.
"You guys are really good together! You should challenge the town gym leader, Falkner." A man walks from the crowd, revealing his identity. "I would love to fight such young aspiring trainers such as yourselves! I'll be free today at 6pm." Hisui and Stefan babble in excitement from meeting their first gym leader.
Chapter 5: Aiming for the Zephyr Badge
The two boys are outside, battling both their slumber and each other, hoping to surpass Falkner. Stefan burns a bright blue, as he battles passionately against Hisui. "Alright Bush, Bullet Seed!" *Oddish exhales a maelstrom of seed, pelting Porygon into submission* "Third knock out in a row... Come back, Beta!" Hisui digitizes his Beta back into it's cell phone. "Go Emerald!" *Hisui summons his Leafeon, it growls softly, ready for battle*
Hisui plans out his next plan, 'Leafeon can take out Bush no problem, but it's Jack and Pidgeotto I'm worried about. Both of my pokemon can't match up to him... What do I do?' Leafeon hears a cry for help and notifies the others. As it darts in the direction of the sound, Hisui, Bush, and Stefan chase after it. A trapped pokemon is crying in a cage of light. "-GASP- Is that a..." Hisui and Stefan gaze at a captured Celebi. "Return Bush. Go, Jack! Crack the cage open with Rock Slide!" *Charmander scoops rocks into the air with it's claws, then slams them down with it's tail, freeing the Celebi* It attempts to fly, but is too damaged to do so, hitting the ground.
From the trees, a Gligar swoops down, swirling and hitting Emerald. "Super Effective hit, Gligar!" A shadow swan dives from the tree and land softly beside gligar. "How dare you steal my prize? I take a break to the restroom and this happens? Shameful!" Hisui grabs Celebi in his arms and leaps back, "How dare you for harming this Celebi!" Hisui notices her black outfit with an 'R' and a small star next to it. "That R... Are you with Team Rocket?!" She giggles, "One can say that. But our dream and power is far beyond that of the old Team Rocket! Gligar, grab that Celebi! Kill him if you must!"
Stefan gasps, "Did you just say k-kill?!? Jack, F-flame Thrower!" Stefan's aura burns a bright yellow, as Jack hacks smoke. "Stefan, focus! Don't get intimidated by her! Emerald, use Magical Leaf!" Hisui pounced out the way, just being grazed by gligar, but staggers in pain. Emerald's calls upon leaves to slash the gligar. The girl laughes, "Seep into a poisonous slumber!" Hisui assessed the flying patterns of the gligar, "It's using Poison Jab... Damn it, our bags are in the pokemon center..." Hisui begins to breathe heavily as he stumbles to the ground. He feeds the Celebi an Oran Berry. "It's... not much... But, this'll help....." Hisui begins coughing.
Stefan shakes his head an enters a rage, burning fiery red with Jack, "Finally got it together! Go, use Dragon Rage!" Jack roars a shockwave of blue flames, which blast the enemy gligar, knocking it out. Hisui begins to lose consciousness, but suddenly feels warmth from his chest. Celebi glows as it cleanses Hisui's body of the toxins. "Aromatherapy... Thank you..." As he smiles, Emerald nudges him softly. "Alright, we can't let Stefan have all the fun! Let's..." Hisui begins to feel a slight tremor.
"You foolish boys have got this all wrong! You don't have the upper hand! You have been in my venomous grips this entire time!" Emerald pushes Hisui out of the way as a Drapion leaps from under the ground, gripping Emerald's neck in it's pincers. A Skuntank leaps from behind Stefan and attempts to slash him, but is blocked by Jack, struggling to hold it. "You two have skill, but I'm an admin of the Millennium Prominence. Ivy, the Poison Assassin. Drapion. Skuntank. Crush them both under your claws."
Before the final blow could be dealt on either pokemon, both Drapion and Skuntank were slammed back. Clapping can be heard from behind a tree as a lone trainer walks in. "Bravo... Did you get all the Officer Jenny?" ~'I'm on the way, with back up!'~ Juan reveals himself from the shadows. "I already gauged your strength by looking at your Gligar. It didn't instinctively aim for the foe's face, so I knew it was well trained. I didn't want to make my appearance until after I notified the authorities."
Ivy sneered as she waved her arm, "Skuntank, send them to hell with Smog!" Nothing happens. She looks down at Skuntank to see it's mouth clamt by Scizor, pummeling it's face with Bullet Punch and Jack slashing on it's back. "Drapion, Slash them to oblivion!" Nothing happens. She looks down to see a parylized Drapion getting electric knuggies from Vigoroth. "Give Up! We have you surrounded!" Numerous police officers and Arcanines surround the area, as well as Falkner, the gym leader. "Hmmp... We will meet again..." She returns her two pokemon to their pokeballs and throws one more on the ground, bursting Brightpowder everywhere. She is seen flying into the moonlight with a Crobat.
"We can't give chase given the situation with the children and Celebi... We will all head the pokemon center and rest for the night. Officer Jenny, lock down the city for tonite. We'll reopen the city gate posts in the morning..." He looks over to the boys and their pokemon, "Thanks for doing what you can. Get some rest... We have battles in the morning!" After the boys healed their pokemon, they headed to bed. Hisui woke up in the middle of the night to use the rest room. He walks down the hall, and notices Celebi missing. Before he can react, it lands on his head with a bell. "Where I'm from, people give their favorite pokemon a bell to symbolize love and friendship. I'm giving you a bell for your pokemon, Emerald... Maybe one day we can meet at a different time so you can give me my own bell." Hisui rubbed Celebi lightly, then said goodbye as it warped through time, leaving Hisui a Clear Bell behind.
Chapter 6: Gym Challenge! Falker, the Aerial Officer
Hisui and Stefan look at each other and gaze upon the Zephyr Gym. Juan opens the door, "What are you two waiting for?" They all step in. Hisui and Stefan gaze up at the high rise ceiling and assorted flying pokemon. "Welcome, to the Zephyr Gym!" Falkner leaps off his Skarmory, "Are all three of you battling?" Juan shakes his head, "I'm sorry, I have my own set." Juan reveals 3 gym badges from th Sinnoh region. "Astounding! Well, if you want to battle and get the Zephyr badge, just let me know. Today, I have the entire gym open for you two! Which one of your would like to battle first?"
Hisui and Stefan talked it over on the side, then began arguing as Hisui stomped forward and Stefan is rubbing his stomach. "I'll g-go first. Hisui has second." Falkner and Juan look in pity to Stefan as Falkner positions himself across the field. The referee calls out, "This is an official match between a trainer and a gym leader! both are only able to use one pokemon! First to faint, will be declared winner! Ready? Fight!" Stefan calls out Jack, "Go! Use Flame Thrower!" Flames spew from Jack's mouth as Skarmory flies effortlessly to avoid them.
"Skarmory, use Swift!" Skarmory flies in a circle around Jack, dropping bright stars from its wings, pelting Jack. "Defend with Rock Slide!" Jack smashes his tail into the ground, and punches several rocks into the air. Skarmory changes direction, but is slammed in the head with a rock. "Yeah! Critical hit! Finish up with Dragon Rage!" Jack roars a wall of blue flames, which roasts Skarmory as it falls to the ground. It hits the ground, passed out. "Skarmory is unable to battle! The challenger wins!" Falkner walks over to stefan and hands him his first gym badge, then walks over to his spot to face Hisui.
"Return Skarmory, you did good. Go, Noctowl!" From the plasma beam of his pokeball, Noctowl twirls in the air an flies gracefully onto his arm. "Ready yourself Hisui." Hisui grabs two of his pokeballs, and grips Emerald's ball. "I know that Grass is weak against Flying pokemon, but I have an ace up my sleeve..." Tossing the pokeball upwards, Emerald leaps out in a back flip, landing beside Hisui. "This is an official match between a trainer and a gym leader! both are only able to use one pokemon! First to faint, will be declared winner! Ready? Fight!"
Noctowl takes the offense, "Go, nail 'em with a tackle attack!" Bracing itself for impact, Noctowl breezes by Emerald. It then reverses and swoops for another Tackle, but Emerald leaps onto Noctowl, slamming it on the ground. "I figured if we take the fly away from the bird, there will be a greater chance in taking him down. Use Grasswhisle!" Emerald hums softly as Noctowl falls asleep. "Now, use U-turn!" Emerald slams Noctowl, then flips backwards into it's pokeball as Beta gets switched in. "Easy kill. Shockwave!" ~Bzzt!~ Beta zaps Noctowl into submission.
Later on that day, in the Pokemon Center, Hisui grabs his pokeballs from Nurse Joy. “Thanks, Nurse Joy!” She bows respectfully as he runs off to Juan and Stefan. “Well guys, this has been a great experience so far, but I was thinking… Grass pokemon mean a lot to me. I think I want to unlock the secrets to training powerful grass pokemon as well as get stronger on my own. But the next time we meet, it will be a battle to remember! Thanks for everything guys…” The three guys pound their fist together as they all leave their respective routes.
