1 The First Day!
"POKÈMON"
Mysterious creatures that inhabit our world, humanity lives and cooperate with these creatures. using their amazing powers for many purposes, to help to build and even control the weather! but there is one common profession that most people chose...
POKÈMON TRAINER
but...
i will not become that common proffesion...
I will be...
an EXPLORER!
and this is the story of my journey...
Finally, I'm old enough to be an Explorer, I've been waiting for this since I was 10 years old! I Can't wait to see what this World has!
Oh wait I forgot... hi I am "Justin", I'm from the Kalos region, I lived in vaniville town, i am 15 years old right now and ready to see the World. oh boy! i'm excited!
What pokèmon should I bring with me you ask?
well I already have a friend! and He's a "gallade" and I've been his friend since I was a baby when he's still a ralts!
My father trained ralts so he could be strong...
but I secretly trained with ralts so I could be stronger too, that's why... I am prepared!
i do have two other companions but... i will explain to you later.
"Aaahhhh finally, it was time for me to EXPLORE!" i shouted at the sky, ready to explore. then i hear my friend Gallade cheering me up behind me,
"hey let's go to the first gym leader and get some badge!" i said excitedly to my self...
Why the gym you ask? because the gym is the part that I want to explore too! They have strong pokèmon's and maybe something even come up on our travel!
it will be fun!
as i excitedly shout at the sky, i find my self running through a gate with then a path with bushes alligned at the sides, i could feel the anticipation of the new beginning!
after a few running i found my self to another town that i used to come when i came to vannivile town...
Aquacorde town.
a city that i have been visiting quite often for some time to enjoy tea...
yes i do like tea.
and of course i started reminding of it when i see the citizens of this town drinking the fine tea on a vintage chair. the pool of water with spewing water coming out from the pool making a beautiful old fashioned fountain on some locations...
this is a very decent town none the less... but it might be better if there is more people actually living here... luckly every one is not interupting my privacy...
we also took some berries from our house before we left. but we brought no potions and any other medicenes for pokemons...
why bringing berries instead of potions? well, the first reason is that berries are more easier to collect, also the fact is that they can be free! but for the most part, Gallade prefers to eat berries as medicene than actual human made ones... it is natural for them anyways, also i do like eating berries, they can be sweet and juicy!
but enough about berries, as i run towards the stone bridge ahead of me, connecting to route 2
then i stopped in the middle of the bridge and looked back... i can see my town from far away... i also noticed that Gallade stopped and looked at our town as well.
"looks like we have to say goodbye now huh" i said to Gallade, he nods in reply... "ready for our adventure... friend?" i added to him as i smile.
then Gallade opens his mouth...
"ready as you are," gallade said through my mind as he also speak his name in my ears, he has a mid-low voice as he speaks through telepathy. some people might actually thought i can speak to pokemons directly by their language, but no.. it's just telepathy...
funny to think about it tho...
as i turned around to look at the end of the bridge to see the stone ground changed to dirt pathing...
i took a deep breath...
"let's go then!" i shouted with determination of a better future.
//////
the morning sun shines me as i walked at the dirt pathing with a gentle breeze blows through me as my hoodie is still closing my hair and the shine of my eyes... some chirps of a Fletchling heard in the distance... it relaxes me and my friend Gallade as i hear it... it is amazing to hear the nature by it's full glory again... maybe if my old house didn't-
...
let's talk about a different topic!
i didn't only bring Gallade with me of course, i have two others! but for their identity i will only tell you when i do want to... also i really like pokemons more than humans... my father made me hate againt's humanity because of how wretched he is... maybe if he haven't-
...
do you know that my mom is a pokemon breeder? she really likes pokemons like i do too! and Gallade is almost always my number one companion... but...
...
i should better stop thinking like this... i needed to be happy at all times... like what i promised to Alex... a friend of mine i lost in my heart...
i wish he would appear again...
when i wonder about this, i looked around the woods
until i noticed something unnatural.
a huge metal plate crashed on the ground
it was just laying on the left side of the road and in the forest... with curiosity Gallade and i walked towards the metal plate with questions in our head. the metal is badly deformed and dented, i looks like there is a blast mark on it... looks like it was blown up internally...
"Gallade, help me with this" i say as i started to flip the metal, Gallade came by my side and prepared to flip it as well, just as expected. he flips is easily...
and i reveals something different.
the outer side seems to be scratched by the terrain... did it fall from somewhere high?
but where? there's also some kind of painting but... the crash took of most of the paint, making it unrecognisable,
now i have a bad feeling at this...
"what do you think is this?" Gallade ask
"im not sure" i replied...
judging from the direction of the fall, it headed north.
it's heading towards santalune city?
we followed the direction to see if there is another one....
...
and there is...
the metal...
and a Lucario!
it's laying on the ground unconcious! i there any trainer nearby? W-Who cares! i need to help this poor thing!
"What the!?" Gallade blurted as he sees the Lucario, without any other thoughts i run towards the Lucario, i stopped as i look down on it... it's not moving... i kneeled down and looked closer to the Pokemon...
...
It's breathing!
hardly...
...
he needs help quickly!
"justin! i think we're closer to santalune city!" Gallade suggested me
i nodded in reply...
"rrgghh..." the Lucarion groaned quietly.
he's suffering!
"We gotta go to a pokemon center, QUICK!" I yelled,
then i carefully picked up the injured pokemon, after picking it up i noticed that his right arm wasn't put nicely... it's dislocated!
"uunngghh!" it groaned heavily as his dislocated arm hangs. intense fear rises up through my spine and to my head as i see his arm! with realization i carefully put his arm to rest at his chest.
then i run carefully to the nearest pokemon center.
this was unexpected... an injured pokemon? was there a something flying in this area...
and i can't heal him with anyways since i only have some berries! i don't think a revive shard cloud help him too!
it's alright...
we just need to get through route 3...
then we'll reach to santalune city...
...
"hang on!" i shouted quietly as i see the entrance of a city from the distance.
without any other thoughts i kept running, ignoring everyone.
then i see the Pokemon Center from afar! i picked up my pace and with faith i kept running towrads the glass, it opened quickly as i was about to hit it! then i see a nurse looked at me with her expression surprised.
i stopped right in front of her and quickly said:
"H-Help! i think he's dying!" i yelled
"what is the cause?!" she ask
"im not sure... but please help him!" i added
she looked at the Lucario for a while...
"I'll see what I can do" she replied,
then i gave her the Lucario, she picked it up and walk quickly towards another room with a Chansey following.
...
then we stood there...
still confused...
"will he be fine?" Gallade Added
"..." i stayed quiet for a bit...
"He will be"
////////////
the sky is now orange... the dusk fills the place with mixed atmosferes...
now im sitting at a comfy couch as i stare at the ceiling mindlessly... Gallade sits right beside me and staring at the ground instead...
"Beep!" the door alarm sounded again... i looked at the glass door, and another trainer comes in and meet the nurse directly...
this is the 29 time a trainer came here in 5 hours...
"nurse! i need healing!" he yelled rudely
"sure, then lend me your friends" she replied kindly,
then the trainer takes some of his pokeballs to her... then one falls and opens. a red ray burst out of the pokeball and makes a form of a Chespin...
the little fellow smiles a this trainer.
"did you call me out master?" he said to his trainer, Gallade translate his words and put's it on my mind with the it's same voice... a nice translator if i say so.
i looked at the trainer to wait for a nice reply...
but...
the trainer didn't smile...
"what are you doing Chespin! get back in the Ball!" he yelled at it
"W-What?" he stuttered
"i don't have time for this! get back in the ball you weak sprout!" he yelled again as he grabs the dropped pokeball and forced return him to it... instead of giving it to nurse joy, he put it back to his pocket
"Are you sure you don't want to help that one as well?" nurse joy ask kindly again
"no! just heal the one i gave you!" he confirms...
then i hear Gallade growled near me quietly...
"that jerk..." Gallade grunted
i turned to look and him and see that he is staring to that trainer soul...
then i noticed he turned around and looked at us, i quickly pull my hoodie down so my face will be hidden by the shadow...
he looked at us for a while...
"what are you looking at?" he said to Gallade,
Gallade didn't take it nicely and growled louder...
then he walks closer to us...
oh no...
"do you have a problem sir knight?" he mockingly said...
Gallade grit his teeth...
i can feel the rage built up in him...
then he looked at me, i pull my hoodie harder as he stares at me...
"that's your pal, right?" he said to me harshly.
"Yes" i replied calmly...
"it looks like he want's to beat me... you wanna settle this with a battle? i bet i'll beat your pokemons till they beg for mercy!" he said mockingly again...
...
"what's wrong? scared of losing? you must be new here! i bet you haven't beat the first gym yet because of how much your pokemons are weak! and I'm sure they wont live long because of yo-"
i had enough...
i quickly jumped and pull his collar, i stared at him sternly and his face suddenly turned to fear...
"you want a battle? how about i battle you instead with my fist!" i yelled
"Y-You are-" he stuttered
"ANSWER!" i yelled at his face
then he quickly struggles to get out of my hands.
i let go and Gallade is already by my side, ready to fight inside the Center.
"I-I'm sorry! i didn't know that you're-"
"your pokemons are healed" the nurse came out from a room, carrying his pokeballs. she doesn't seem to be aware about our situation, the trainer quickly runs towards Nurse joy and Grabbed all of his pokeballs and runs out of the pokemons center, as if his life is on the line...
"at least that's taken care of" Gallade said through telepathy only...
then i reply to Gallade with telepathy only as well.
"Gallade! that could have gone worse! if i didn't do anything, he might-"
"Excuse me?" The Nurse intervene me
i looked at her and smiled a bit
"what is it?" i replied normally
"the Lucario is healed up!" she said with a smile
"really? where is he?" i ask
"he's right over there!" she said as she looked at the room she previously went out.
and Lucario is being guided by her Chansey!
"so, before we do anything. is that your pokemon?" she asked...
...
well crap...
...
how do i put this...
...
there is only one way...
"well-"
with sudden thought, i said.
"yup, He's mine"
then i see Gallade in shock and disbelief
"what are you doing?" Gallade telepathically yelling at me
"I'll explain later" i reply telepathically as well.
"that's settled then traine-"
"IM NOT A TRAINER!"
...
did i yell?
...
i opened my eyes and see nurse joy...
shocked and intimidated...
Gallade put his arm on my shoulder with concern over his face...
"I-I'm sorry!" i quickly apologize to nurse joy, Gallade put his arm away.
"it's alright. if you're not a trainer then... what is your profession" she asked
"well, my profession is an explorer" i said in an optimist tone so i will change the atmosphere "okay then Justin" she says in a smile.
then Chansey asked the Lucario to come to me, gallade told me that.
"have a nice day" nurse joy waving his hand and give me a smile while i was walking to the exit with Gallade and the...
Lucario...
right when i was about to exit the pokemon center, another trainer run pass through me and quickly meet up the nurse and quickly ask that she wants to rest her pokemons...
(sigh)
trainers...
how much i hate admitting who they are...
...
...
...
we're now right in front of the pokemon center, with no people around... weird...
i took a deep breath and exhale slowly to show my sign of relief after getting out of that place...
there is still one thing i need to do...
time to do it
"so can you tell us what's your trainer is, we'll help you find him" i said to the Lucario happily.
the reason why i said this that the fact that a Riolu needs a trainer to evolve it! thus meaning that this Lucario have a trainer too!
i thought this would be it, then i could go on with my exploring and be done with it...
"w-what's a trainer?" he said
"well, a trainer is a..."
wait...
did i just hear it with my own ears?
...
...
...
did he just talk!
and without any realization...
thus my biggest journey begins.
