Sunlight opened his eyes and looked at the sky.
“Wow, the sky is beautiful today, he said. Wait...The sky?!”
He turned his head and realized he was lying in the middle of a forest, and more surprising, a little creature was on his chest, looking at him. The creature in question was little and cute looking, like a little bunny or something. He screamed, which scared the creature, who ran away. He got up and saw he was alone.
“Where the fuck am i?! He said to himself. Last night, i was in my bed, and now, i wake up in the middle of nowhere. At least, this is not a desert...”
He walked for a little moment, exploring this new place. He saw multiple animal-like creatures which he got captivated by.
“One thing is sure, this place is not Canterlot, or Equestria, he said. Did i get, in someway, get teleported in another world?”
Sunlight verified this theory, to see if he was indeed in another world. He tried to use his magic, and at his surprise, it worked.
“Okay, this world possess magic, he thought. But this is not enough to prove my theory. Let’s continue the researches...”
He walked for many hours in the forest, during when he got to see a lot of creatures that were definitively not from Equestria. He finally found a road which was maybe meaning this world had humans peoples. He continued on his way for 1 more hour before he arrived at the entrance of a town.
“«Lumiose City, The national capital of Kalos, Home of the greatest superstars» read Sunlight on a board. Well, now i have the proof i am in another world.”
He proceeded to explore this city and learned a lot of things. He was seeing everywhere the word Pokemon, which he quickly deduced as being the name given to the creatures he saw earlier. He also saw live fights between the creatures, which were commended by humans, who were holding spherical balls. He learned by reading the name on one of them: they were called Pokeballs.
“Hum, after what i learned of this world until now, he though, Humans of this world seem to use these spherical balls to, in some way, capture these creatures. Then, they make them fight against other creatures, like a sort of competition. I can’t do anything but just find that stupid...But at the same time, i want to learn more about this...”
He searched for a place where he could find information, but strangely, a lot of people were looking at him. That was because he realized he was wearing is «Superhero costume», which was very flashy. Even one of them, a man, told him:
“Ho, this is a very cool costume you wear, man! Are you some kind of mysterious trainer?”
“Hum..Yeah, Totally! He answered. I was actually trying to find an expert on Pokemons, but this is the first time i visit this town.”
“Oh, if you search for a Pokemon expert, i know where you can find one. Just follow me”
The man led him in front of a building where he could read: «Pokemon Research Center»
“Thank you” said Sunlight to the man.
“You’re welcome!” he answered.
Sunlight entered in the building and suddenly got attacked by a cat like creature.
“Not again, Litten, stop!!” said a man.
Sunlight, panicked, took the creature in his hand and was able to hold him back. Suddenly, the cat-like creature calmed down instantly and licked his hand.
“I am sorry he attacked you, said the man. He have the bad habit to protect fiercely his territory.”
The cat was now purring in the hands of Sunlight.
“He seem to like you a lot, said the man. This is the first time i see him being so cuddly with a trainer he just met. Oh, i was forgetting to present myself: I am the professor Sycamore and my specialty is to study and lead researches on the Pokemons, I also to help trainers to learn more about them. And from what i see, you seem to need help”
The professor led Sunlight to a place where a lot of pokemons were playing and having a great time. Sunlight was still holding the Litten in his hands, because this one was refusing to leave him. Sunlight told him that he wanted to learn more about these creatures and about the trainer carrier.
“Hum, you don’t seem a little bit...old, for beginning a Pokemon trainer carrier?” asked the man.
“My parents, were, let just say, a little bit overprotective..” he said.
“I understand, answered Sycamore. Some parents can be more protective than others, well, like people say, better late than never, uh?”
He gave him a strange object with a more stranger shape
“This is a Pokedex, a portable data bank on every pokemons discovered until now.” he said.
The Pokedex started to move on its own and suddenly took life.
“Welcome, Trainer, i am a Rotom-Dex!! Said the device. I am glad to meet my new owner!!”
“Are you some kind of A.I?” asked Sunlight, surprised and captivated.
“No, said Sycamore. What you have in front of you is just a normal Pokedex combined to a Rotom”
“A Rotom?” asked Sunlight.
“Rotom, the Plasma Pokemon, He is a Electrick/Ghost type Pokemon who have the ability to combine his body in any sort of technological device, answered the Rotom-Dex. To gave you an example, If a Rotom take possession of a oven, he will acquire the Fire type instead of the Ghost Type.”
“Now, you will need a Poke-Nav, which is a sort of G.S.P, said Sycamore. The last thing you need before beginning your adventure is a starter Pokemon.”
The professor led Sunlight to a room where 3 little Pokemons, One with frog-like features, another with fox-like features and the last one, with hedgehog features.
“Allow me to present these 3 pokemons, said Motisma-Dex. The one at the right is Froakie, A water type Pokemon with great speed and fast attacks. This pokemon have a sticky foam in his neck, which can be used for a lot of situations. The Pokemon in the middle is Chespin, a Plant type Pokemon. Chespin is known to have a great defensive potential and a good attack, this pokemon can resist an impact with a heavy truck without getting any scratch. The last one is Fennekin, a Fire type pokemon who combine agility and power and love attention.”
“I will choose the Fire type pokemon, said Sunlight, without hesitation. I love fire...and he is so cute...!”
“I was sure you would choose Fennekin, said Sycamore. He is pretty popular in the region, Well, there is his Pokeball.”
The professor gave him the Pokeball.
“Now, you are ready to begin you adventure! Said Sycamore. If i was you, i would try to compete in the Pokemon League.”
“Pokemon League?” said Sunlight, a bit interested.
“The Pokemon League is a sort of tournament, he answered. Only the trainers who have 8 Gym badges, obtainable from the Gym Leaders if you beat them, can participate. This competition will reunite all the trainers who collected their badges and made them fight each other. The trainer who will win the finale will have the chance to fight the Elite 4 and the Champion of the Pokemon League. And if the trainer beat the Elite 4 and the Champion, he or she will be crowned the new Pokemon League Champion.”
“Sound exciting, said Sunlight. Where can i register for the tournament?”
“You can do it at any Pokemon Center, answered Sycamore. Nurse Joy will help you with that”
“Thank you, said Sunlight. Goodbye!”
But when Sunlight was about to left, the Litten he was holding sooner jumped in his arms.
“Hum...Professor?” he asked.
“He he he... Litten seem to like you a lot. He never did that before. I found him abandoned by a trainer during a trip to Alola, i immediately took him with me and brought it back to my lab.”
“Who can be heartless enough to abandon a pokemon?” asked Sunlight.
“Someone who doesn’t understand how wonderful a pokemon is” answered Sycamore.
Sunlight looked the little cat pokemon in the eyes and saw in them a spark.
“Can i keep him with me? Asked Sunlight. He really love me, and i will take care of him”
“Hum, You know what? He asked. If Litten want you for trainer and you want him for companion, then yes, you can keep him.”
The professor walked in another room, then 2 minutes later, came back with a Pokeball.
“Use that pokeball to catch him” he said.
Sunlight took the Pokeball and showed it to Litten.
“Hey, little one, he said. Do you want to have me for trainer?”
The Litten smelt the Pokeball and touched the button with his paw. He disappeared into the ball and that one moved a lot of time before it flashed and made a noise. Sycamore smiled.
“Now, you are the new owner of Litten, he said. I am sure you will take care of him, you are the first trainer he accept since he got abandoned and that mean he saw something special in you.”
Sunlight also took Fennekin’s Pokeball with him and after saying a last goodbye to Sycamore, he headed in direction of a Pokemon Center. He saw a woman who he deduced to be Nurse Joy. She explained to him her duties and helped him to register his name for the League.
“You have 2 months to collect all the badges of the region, she told him. If you don’t have all of them, you will not be able to compete for the Pokemon League of Kalos.”
“Thank you, Nurse Joy!” he said.
“You are welcome!! She said in return. Came back whenever you want!”
Sunlight asked his Motisma-Dex which Gym Leader he should challenge first. The Pokedex told him that there was a Gym Leader in this town, but also said that he was maybe a little bit too powerful for Sunlight at the moment.
“With your Fire type Pokemons, he said. I recommend you to challenge the Gym Leader from Santalune City. She is a Bug type specialist. Fire type attack are super effective against the Bug type.”
“So, show me the itinerary to this city” ordered Sunlight.
The Rotom-Dex showed him the best path to take to make it to the town.
“So, this is on!! Said Sunlight. I have the feeling that a great adventure await me!”
