"Larv," a small cried came from the young pokemon Larvitar, cring at it's master the sixteen year old boy with shaggy dark hair past his ears who was snoozing in his bed. The boy's name was Dustin and since he had moved from his hometown of Pacificlog Town to New Bark Town two days ago things had been slow.

"Wh...at," he slowly said waking from his long sleep getting up from his bed, "Larvitar return," he said grabing the yellow ultra ball as a red beam retrieved Larvitar. The Larvitar was Dustin's only pokemon, his sister had got it for him when she was in Mount Silver. "Another day," he said with a sigh, going into the bathroom freshing up, his hair still sorrta shaggy, he was now in a pair of pants and a yellow shirt instead of the clothes he had fell asleep in, Dustin was an avarge sixteen year old he was slim and sorrta tall.

"Dustin," a female voice cried from bellow stairs, "Breakfeast is ready," she said.

"K, mom," Dustin said from upstairs he grabed his ultraball and walked down stairs. "Sup mom?" he said moozing on over to the table, pulling out a chair and sitting as his mom's Jynx laid pancakes on his plate. "Thanks Jynx," Dustin said with a smile sniffing his delicious choclate chip waffles.

"Jynx," Jynx replied walking into the living room.

"Honey," Dustin's mom said, "Don't you wanna go outside or something?" Dustin's mom said walking over to the table and sitting down next to him, "I know since we moved here you can't surf, but you can allways train pokemon." Dustin's mom was allways caring for Dustin she was a slim women with long dark hair, she looked similar to Dustin.

"Train?" Dustin said cutting his mom with his dark colored eyes. "Mom I'm not gonna be like my older sister," Dustin said eating another bite of his waffle, "Besides," he swalloed the food, "Kai is like really bad to the done."

"But honey your sister Kai gave you that Larvitar," the mom said pouring some water in her cup, and then some in Dustin's.

"Thanks, mom," Dustin said, "but no way." He finished his waffles, and wiped his mouth with the napkin beside his right hand.

"Professor Elm, the local pokemon professor is only about ten minutes away," the mom said trying to convience Dustin, "Come on..."

"No mom," Dustin said, as he went to get up the ultra ball opened and out poped Larvitar.

"Larv," it said with a small cry nudging on Dustin's leg.

"Look honey," the mom said with a smile, "little Larvitar just wants to get out and battle, you know if you complete the pokemon leauge challenege you could end up on t.v."

"Ok, fine, whatever," Dustin said tired of fighting with his mom, "I'll go see that professor dude, in a little bit."

"Right now," the mom said with a smile handing him his cell phone, "I allready got out number stored," she was so happy.

"Fine," Dustin said picking up the ball and returning Larvitar back into his ball. "Be back later," he said as he walked over to the door and started to leave, "Later Jynx, later mom," he said shutting the door behind as he started to walk down the trail.

The door slamed open, Dustin had just made ten steps from his house, "Jynx!" the pokemon screamed.

"Huh?" Dustin said turning around and walking back to Jynx woundering what was wrong, "What is it Jynx?"

"Jynx," it said handing Dustin his shoes.

"O yeah," Dustin laughed, "my shoes," he took them from Jynx and put them on, "Thanks a lot Jynx," Dustin said laughing and then restarting to walk agian.

"Jynx," it said as it rentered the house.

Dustin was slightly whistling down the small dirt roar that would reach Elm's lab quickly, the temperture was mild, not extremely hot but not freezing cold either. Dustin fliped out his brand new cell phone, it was coated yellow and small, it was a flip-phone. "Cool," Dustin said admiring his new phone. He put it back into his pocket and walking calmly until he heard a scream.

"TOTODILE BLAST IT AWAY!!!" the yell was from a girl.

"Huh?" Dustin said then noticing the girl scream she was in a battle with her pokemon, Totodile. Dustin watched the small girl who was tiny and small she looked around ten.

"GET 'EM TOTODILE!" the girl said as her blue gator pokemon unleashed a blast of cold water unto it's enemy a small bird pokemon known as Pidgey.

"Pid--" the little bird said.

"POKEBALL GO!!!!!!" the girl screamed her hat fell off revelaing her golden hair, as she chuncked the ball which hit Pidgey, "Come on," she said as the ball shook then the red center ball stoped. "YES I CAUGHT PIDGEY!!!" she said running in a cheer, which was stoped when she noticed Dustin. "Who are you?"

"Dustin, -er do you know where Professor Elm's lab is?" he asked, he felt wierd asking a little girl that, the girl looked no older than ten.

"My name is Sunni, Your closing in on it, just go strait," she said, "Now I have to leave I'm gonna be a pokemon master," she said running off braging about her newly caught Pidgey.

"Wierd," Dustin though continuing his journy to Elm's lab. He was enjoying the fresh morning breeze that had blown in. He saw some Pidgey soring in the air and just laughed remembering the little girl who caught one, he finally reached a big building similar to a lab, the sign read "Elm's Lab: For new and old trainers alike". Dustin figured this was it and walked in.

"Hello," he said, the words echoing in the lab, he started walking in and noticed on the walls pictures of pokemon, people, gyms, all sorts of amazing things. "Anyone here?" Dustin said.

A strange tall, skinny, light haird man walked up to him, "Yes?" the man said in a neardy voice, "How may I help you?"

"Uh-" Dustin was stumbled, "Are you Professor Elm?" he felt dumb asking.

"The one and only," the man smiled and chuckled, "You are?"

"Dustin," he said, "I came here to uh-see about pokemon training," Dustin said. feeling wierd about explaining this to some stranger.

"Well your too late, I just gave away my Chikorita, Cyndaquil, and Totodile," Elm frowned feeling he has lost a youthful spirit, "Uh-"

"I got a pokemon," Dustin said showing him his ultra ball, "Larvitar," Dustin said the ball bounced on the floor unleashing a flash and the small pokemon Larvitar appeared.

"A LARVITAR?!" Elm said, "HOW RARE!" Elm was in shock, "Gotta relax," Elm said to him self.

"Larvitar...return" Dustin said, hoping Elm would remember why he was here, the ultra ball picked up Larvitar.

"So you wanna take the Johto League Pokemon Challenege?" Elm said, "Eight gym leaders, one championship." Elm continued.

"Uh-ok I guess," Dustin said a little confused like normal, "What do I -uh need?"

"A pokedex," Elm said, "You know it records all data of pokemon, I got one in the back wait right here." Elm said walking into the back.

Dustin felt wierd he had just got here from Pacificlog Town and was allready on his way to being a pokemon trainer, he quickly called his mom pulling out his cell phone and pressing "1" it rang twice before a female voice answered.

"Mom," Dustin quickly said.

"Yes, Dustin," the mom said, "How are you? are you lost?"

"No mom," Dustin said, "I'm fine I do however wanna take the Johto Leauge Challenge," Dustin said full of joy.

"Very well, honey just come by the house after you get back from Elm's and we will talk," the mom said, "bye bye."

"Later," Dustin said hanging up the phone as Professor Elm came up to him holding a yellow device, "Is that the -uh pokedex?"

"Sure is," Elm said, "I've programed you into it, Dustin with Larvitar," Elm said his eyes lighting up at the though of Larvitar. "Go on check it out."

"Uh," Dustin said fliping it out.

The pokedex came alive "I am Devon your pokedex, nice to meet you Dustin." the dex said in a geeky male voice.

"WHAT?!" Dustin didnt know it could talk and was supprised, "It talks?!"

"Oh course it talks," Elm informed him, "How else would you know whats going on?" Elm rolled his eyes.

Dustin was still confused, "Ok?" he then looked shy, "Uh, so this is the famous pokedex?"

"Yes, and not just any ordinary pokedex it's updated to track information from Kanto, Johto, and Hoenn pokemon," Elm started, "also you may change it's voice and accent by clicking this button," Elm showed which button and Dustin fiddled with it going through a female and other voices until he found the one he liked.

"Was up dude," the dex annouced. Dustin smiled he was please with the programing system and even more pleased he was gonna be a good trainer, which he never thought about until today.

"So now that you got a pokedex and you came with an amazing pokemon," Elm said his eyes sparkling at the thought of Dustin's Larvitar, "You need pokeballs, you do know what pokeballs do don't you?"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah," Dustin said he did actually know how to catch one, remembering the little girl with the Totodile catching the bird pokemon.

"Ok, well," Elm said, then going through one of his cabniets, "Take these," he finished handing Dustin ten red and white balls, or pokeballs, "You can get more when you run out by checking Pokemarts."

"Er--Thanks," Dustin taking the pokeballs in his hands, though he couldnt keep them all in his hands Elm seemed to care less.

"Now your own your way," Elm said with a smile knowing he had noticed the spirit of a trainer be born right in front of his eyes, a feeling that to him never got old.

"--Ok," Dustin said, holding his pokeballs and begining on his way out, Elm following him, he got to the door and opened it luckily his pokeballs didnt fall every where, "Later Pro, thanks for the stuff," Dustin said.

"Your welcome, good luck," Elm said waving his new trainer off then closing the door and continuing what he was doing before Dustin got there.

"Great now I got these balls to carry home," Dustin said, to his advantage however home wasnt far. Dustin hummed some on his way home when he fell on a rock, "AH!" he said as his face hit the ground and the balls finally reached the ground, the ultra ball rolled over and Larvitar was unleashed.

"Larv!" it said happy to be out of the pokeball, it grined and then noticed it's master was in need of help.

"Larvitar, help me carry these pokeballls!" Dustin said, Larvitar looked at him and then helped him carry the pokeballs, finally they reached the house and Dustin's mom was very excited, she ran up to him and hugged him, making him drop the pokeballs agian.

"Mo-m," Dustin said, his curculation almost cut because of the tight grip his mom had on him.

"Honey, I'm so glad!" the mom said, then unleashed her grip on Dustin and grabbing Larvitar who was happy, "Come on in honey, I got your stuff ready." Dustin followed his mom into their house after he had picked up his pokeballs, they walked into the living room, a good size room with a couch, love seat, and Dustin's bean bag, Jynx was in there cleaing up.

"So I'm all packed?" Dustin asked, after showing his mom his pokedex, she was quite impressed by it.

"Yes," the mom said, trying to fight back the tears, "--I packed all--your clothes, and some food and---money," she said now crying.

"Mom," Dustin said hugging his mom and comforting her, "It's ok, I won't be gone long," Dustin hoped his promise would be carried out.

"Your right," the mom said grinning up, "Jynx bring Dustin's bag please."

"Jynx," the pokemon said going in the kitchen and coming back with one strap back pack with two side pockets, a front pocket, along with the storage space the actually back pack had.

"Thanks Jynx," Dustin said, taking the bag from the icy pokemon and putting in his pokeballs and pokedex, "Well I better get on."

"Yeah," the mom said walking her second and last child to the door, crying agian, "Now remember I got your number and my number is in your cell so call me," the mom was now in huge aligator tears.

"Ok, later mom," Dustin was a little nervous, "I love you," he said now a little emoitional.

"I love you too," the mom's final words for a short while.

"Larv!" the little pokemon said running from in the living room to his masters foot, nuding at Dustin's leg.

"O yeah I forgot," Dustin felt stupid allready, he returned Larvitar to his ultra ball and waved to his mom as he walked into the sunset, not knowing what the future holds but ready for anything!
