Pokemon Adventure Chapter 1: Trainer Candidate

Welcome to the world of Pokemon. A world that fills with many wondrous creatures called Pokemon. There are 100, 200, 300, or even more species that may yet be discovered. They are roaming in the land, the sky, the sea, and even around the neighborhood where everyone least expected. They can be tamed, raised by using a spherical object called Pokeball. They were used to battle towards victory or being as a house pet for safe keeping, everything has their own goal and perspective.

This story began at Kanto region around the Viridian City. A boy was born in Sinnoh and raised in Kanto, ready to embark on an epic journey to an unknown adventure or event that may occur to him...

At least that was every child's dream before Pokemon became more furious to humans due to evil organizations, poachers, and the human itself. Not just Pokemon, but humans as well because of their violence to any fresh adventurer trainer. With the defensive department's suggestions and elite's agreements, each region has been instated that any fresh trainer will start their journey at the age of 16 or reasonably capable to defend him-/herself.

Anyway, on to the story, it all starts with a...

*Beep... * *Beep... * *Beep... * *Beep... * *Beep... *

'Damn clock...' groaned the boy who was forcefully awake by the loud sound of an alarm clock. He tried to reach out with his slightly yellow tan hand to hit the snooze button without looking at it and the alarm is off. He went back to sleep again.

When his conscious started to drift off again to the dream land, he heard a faint clicking sound coming from the door. Soon after that he heard a loud squeal and *BAM!*. Once again he has been rudely awake by someone by slamming itself to his sleeping body. The boy startled by the rude awakening and groaned because he knew who woke him up.

On top of him is a bi-pedal jackal cub with black fur on its lower legs, upper torso, pair of dreadlocks at the side of its head and its eyes to the tip of its nose. The rest of its fur is very dark blue color, except for cream color collar and dull plate on each back of its upper paw. And it wagging its tail and gave him a playful smile.

"Geez, (Riana). You know it's not nice to wake me up like that." The boy groaned at his old friend, the Riolu. The Riolu barked at him playfully and start to snuggle at him or try to shove him off the bed. "Okay... okay... I'm up, Geez. I'm starting to think that you are a boy instead of girl." He giggled at her.

She then pouted him with a tongue then jump off the bed and starts running to the first floor. He shook his head with a sigh. He likes to tease the girl like his own sister whenever she acts like a spoiled cub. He looked around at his room and it was a bit of a mess. School uniforms lying on the ground, trash overflowing with snacks and papers, a study desk at the corner of the room and a TV next to it with a Wii console attach to it. A Closet sit next to his bed with a lamp attached a little higher over the bed so he won't bump on it.

He starts to get up and went to the bath room which right at the left end of the corridor, next to his parent's master bedroom. He flicked on the light that attach to the mirror and saw his own reflection. The boy is 16 years old and had a slight yellow tan skin all over his body. His hair is white as snow and eyes as bright as an amber stone. The posture is like any normal fit average teen as possible and boy what a shonen he is (LOL). He brushed his teeth and ready to get a shower. 'Nothing is better than a warm shower on a morning.' He thought as he washed his body with soap and hair with shampoo and rinse till he is spick and span.

He dried himself with a towel that hang at the towel rack and went back to his room. He picked up and wore the uniform and brought his backpack contained school materials down the dining room. Down at the dining hall, he saw his little friend Riolu is sitting at the chair gobbling some PokeChow. "You know that you could turn into a Grumpig if you gobble down without chewing." He teased him.

"And who teach her to eat like that?" said a female voice that coming from the kitchen.

The little Riolu only snicker after hearing that sentence. "I can't say I'm the one to be blame if she is mimicking my appetite." He said in defense. "By the way, did you send (Riana) to wake me up, mom?"

"Yes, I did, Luke," said the mother who is still cooking at the kitchen. "I don't want you to be late at school, especially when it is final test."

"Ugh... you don't have to tell me twice, and I prefer mid name please." He groaned. "I was up all night to study."

"Serve you right and as long as you are in this house, I have the right to call you your first name, Luke Genesis Ashfield. Would you prefer sunny side up or scramble?" His mother asked him.

"Scramble please." He groaned in protest, as he walked to the kitchen to take an OCJ (Oran Citrus Juice) from the fridge.

His breakfast is served with scramble egg, bacon, sausage, butter toast and OCJ. He chow down the food and ready to leave to school. After wiping his mouth with napkin, he kisses his mother and (Riana) goodbye and went off.

It took at least thirty minute to go to the school. Since it is too early, he looked back at his house. The house itself is nothing special, just a two story high with low rooftop. There are several windows, no garage, just plain normal. He walked to the school slowly to enjoy the view of the city. The size of the city is pretty moderate, moderate enough to have Pokemon Center and a Gym of its own and because of that, lots of people and trainers pass by to resupply for journey or battle against Gym leader or spend a night out. And to make things better, it has a battle stadium where trainers can test their strength against each other before heading towards Victory road. Unfortunately this is one of a few cities that have a school for any kids and teen that didn't go on a journey yet.

The school itself consists of kindergarten, preliminary, mid school, high school, and college. The Viridian City has all of them except the kindergarten and college and that's where he goes right now. After he arrived at the school, he was greeted by one of his friend that happens rushing towards him. "Genesis, Good morning." said the human friend, "Are you ready for the test today?"

"Ready as a Tauros. What about you, Alex?" Genesis asked. Alex Revenant is a 16 year old boy with slightly red skin, dark brown hair and cyan eyes. Right now he wore the same uniform as he is. A simple black suit.

"Not as confident as you are. And to make matters worse, Kaito needs some attention as well by making some pranks." Alex replied.

"What did he do?" Genesis asked.

"First, when I was focus studying, I saw a tray of sandwich. And remembering I haven't had dinner, I reached it and it passed through. Second, I was dozed off at midnight. He cast another illusion to look it was morning. He yelped to wake me and I was in panic until I saw the clock. Lastly this morning, he over flooded the bathroom which again it was an illusion." Alex answered while counting with his fingers. "Pretty much, I'm screwed."

"Chilax. I'm pretty sure that we manage this one out. After all, you are better learner by doing live experiences." Genesis tried to sarcasm at his friend.

"Now that's mean, Gen." He pouted.

Genesis gave a chuckle at his friend's reaction. "Come on, you still have times to do last minute study."

They went inside to the school and into their class. They saw several students are sitting either at their own desk or doing study group. They went to their desk and took out some notes to study again until the teacher came in holding a bundle of papers with his left hand. "All right everyone put down your notes, we are about to begin the test." The teacher ordered. He handed the papers at the front row class. "Please take one and pass it to your friends at the back. While we are waiting, I would like to inform you that we have a guest here and he is going to keep an eye on all of you in case if you are cheating." One or two students gave a quiet growl while the rest tried to hide it. The teacher looked at the door and called out. "Okay you can come in, Professor."

Everyone heard the door opened, but they didn't expect that the one who enter is the famous professor in Kanto. The professor walked inside the class and stood the front of the class. He looked around at the students showing his pride as a Pokemon Professor, even though he is old with tan skin and wore grey suit instead his normal lab coat. "All right students, as I recall this are your final exam and I want all of you to do their best. Your teacher and I have collaborated 100 questions. There are multiple choices and essays. If you pass, you will be a legitimate trainer candidate. If fail, you will restart the whole semesters again. You have two hours and thirty minutes to finish it. Is that clear?" He asked but got a silent treatment from the students. It seems they were shock to see the famous Professor Oak in the flesh.

The students looked at the teacher. "Did I neglect to mention that he is a special and famous guest?" The teacher asked. The students only shook their heads.

The professor only sighed and gave a rough cough to snap everyone's attention. "All right as for now, you may begin the test." He looked at his watch. "Right about now." The time shows 8:30 am. Everyone starts reading and scribbling their names on the paper. They started in random place, from the easy one, multiple choices, or essays. The questions were mix from basic treats, berries, pokemon anatomy and conditions, history, geography, and many more.

Genesis wrote down the answers fluently while Alex scratches his head every single minute. Half of the given time has passed. Some of them still at least quarter of the test, some are at half of the test. The professor and the teacher have a short conversation from time to time and Alex intend to cheat his way out by sneaking from side to side, but suddenly he notice something green at his side. He looked down to see a little Pokemon with white body, green hair like head with a red horn protruding at the front and back of the head. He look at it and felt weird to see its body slender down and the lower part is swaying like a skirt. 'I wouldn't do that if I were you.' A sudden voice echoed in his head, which makes Alex jumped with surprise "Woah!"

Everyone staring at him with confuses and anger. Alex looked at everyone and felt embarrassed. He sat back down and continues to work. He looked at the Pokemon which gave a childish giggle. 'Are you the one who just talk?' He asked inside his head. The Pokemon nodded. 'Why?'

'Remember that you are having a test and your human teacher said no cheating.' The voice really came from the Pokemon via telepath and the voice sound girlish. 'I'll let this one slide so don't do it again.' She walks off to the front of the class and humming with her own tongue. "raaallltssss..."

Professor Oak noticed a little Ralts walking towards him and smiled. "Anything unusual, Ralts?" he asked. The little Pokemon only shook her little big head. The Professor nodded and looked at the students looking at Ralts. "I forgot to mention, this time I brought some help to keep an eye out for any cheaters and this Ralts is one of them," everyone looked around to see there are any Pokemon in the class and true to his words that there are Pokemon crawling and floating on the ceiling. Some walking around looking at the students and greet them with their own tongue. The students looked at the Professor in shocked. The Professor only gave a smile at them. "So you have been warned."

Even though the students were shocked to see so many Pokemon in the class, time still moves on. Thirty minutes before deadline, one by one the students finished his/her test. The teacher saw it and called out. "For those who finished early may submit it at my desk and enjoy your lunch. The result will be announced this afternoon hang on." The students walked to the teacher's desk and put down the test, one of them is Genesis.

Alex looked to see that Genesis has finished it early and he still have at least a quarter more to go. He desperately wrote down the answer as far as he knew. One thing for certain, what Genesis said to him is true. He is a fast learner when it comes to live experience and he would treat his friend Kaito a luxury meal 'if' he passed.

Three minutes to go and Alex is the last one who is still writing the test. Six questions to go and all of them are essays. Many Pokemon are gathering at him and it is not helping him at all. He is getting frustrated. The Pokemon suddenly moved away and went out the class, every single Pokemon except Ralts and another Pokemon. 'Now you can do your best.' Ralts supported him.

'Thanks, but the time...' Alex frustrated again.

'Just calm your mind and you will do it clearly.' The Ralts instructed him.

Alex only gave a sighed as he tried to calm his mind and tried to answer what he think is the right answer. And time ended as he finished writing the last question. He dropped down the pen and exhaled deeply. "Aah... Made it just in time."

'You did it.' Ralts cheered. Alex smiled at her and he looked at another Pokemon at his other side. He noticed it is an otter Pokemon with orange fur and slightly tan on its torso to its stomach. Two tails with the same tan on the tip of the tail. It has fin on both at the front paw and a big yellow collar. It crossed its front paw and gave a smile at him. It nodded and gave a call "Bui..bui...". He submitted the test and went back to packed his bag. He walked pass the otter Pokemon and saw two large tan spots side by side at the back of it, indicating it is a male.

Alex went out of the class and Genesis waited at the front class. "How is it?" He asked.

"I'm totally screwed. TT-TT" He answered sadly.

Both of them went to the cafeteria and ordered some food. They sat at an empty table and enjoy the food. Genesis started the conversation. "So what happened back there?"

"She talked to me telepathically." Alex answered while he ate the mashed potato.

"She?" Genesis asked.

"That Ralts talked to me." He explained to Genesis what went really happened.

"No wonder. I'm betting she reads you like an open book." Genesis laughed as he is holding a carton of moo moo milk.

"I doubt she heard my yapping in my mind, unlike the Buizel at my other side." Alex gave a sighed. "How's yours by the way?"

"Definitely pass." He answered.

"Sigh... At least I'm passing at Pokemon Anatomy, and berries, thanks to Kaito."

"I told you so." Genesis chuckled. Alex pouted for a minute and gave a smile at him. They continued their lunch and waited for the test result.

The Pokemon that have been brought by Professor Oak serve another purpose and that is to keep them company. There are so many Pokemon to see here, some of them are bug type and ghost type while others were water, psychic, grass and normal type. Some are caterpillar; few are spiders, gas like mist, fox in armor, Buizels, ferret, bud plant, seed plant and bell flower. Many were curious what kind of Pokemon are they but most of all, they are curious about how strong they are when it comes to battle.

Genesis is accompanied with Buizel while Alex is accompanied with Ralts. All of them are having a nice conversation while Ralts is doing the hard work. She makes a telepath link between Genesis and Alex and act as a translator as well.

Time flies by when they are having some fun and the teachers called in the students in. The students went back to their respective class and waited for the announcement. Soon the teacher and Professor Oak came in with a bundle of white envelops. "Well I have some good news and bad news." The teacher announced. "The good news is that Professor Oak brought this to give it to your parents" He showed the white envelop. "The bad news is that only some of you will get it."

"Oh man, I'm screwed." Alex groaned.

"Oh yes, you are for I have the reports to give you. I will call out your names and do not open it until I say so." The teacher called every student in the class to present them the report. They were so tense that they tempted to open the report card but his/her friend stops it. "All right, everyone has received the report card. I want all of you to open it now."

Some students are hesitates to open it. Those who are confident enough open the card and a stamp tells them that they pass, along the result marks from every subject. They were smiled, laughed, or yelled "Yes!" Genesis is one of them. Alex is sweating like a close combat. He suddenly heard a groan telling him that someone has failed. He heard another groaned, and another, and another. He started to tense. He closed his eyes and rubbed himself to open the card. He took a peek at the card and he saw the marks with a red stamp said "PASSED". His eyes wide open for he is completely disbelief what he saw.

"I passed?" He asked not believing it.

"I PASSED!"
