Rom's Pokémon Adventure
Chapter 1: Beginnings
-Lowee- A girl with short brown hair walked out of an open doorway and sighed. She was bored out of her mind.
"Ram's away at Lastation... And, Blanc's busy with her novels," she said as she folds her arms, "I'm so bored... What to do?"
"Oh, Rom... Hello," a woman's voice called to her. A woman with long sky blue hair walked up to her and smiled.
"Hi, Mina... Is there something wrong?" Rom asked as she looked up at the Oracle.
"You have nothing to do, huh? Well, why not take on some quests and get some shares?" Mina suggested.
"Won't Blanc get mad?" Rom asked.
"Honestly, yes... But, think of how happy she would be knowing that you're doing something worthwhile to the nation."
"Mmm... Okay," Rom smiled as she nods her head. She rushed out of the hallway.
"She's a sweet girl... I pray she will be all right," Mina smiled as she folds her arms.
-Lowee Snowfield; Later- "Eternal Force Blizzard!" Rom called as she swung her large blue pen wand and froze an Ancient Dragon solid. She spun her wand at her right side and smiled.
"There... All done. Better head back home." She changed into a one piece pink swimsuit like armor as her hair color changed to blue. She hovered off of the ground and flew off to the left. Suddenly, a large white portal opened in front of her and she stopped in front of it. She looked at the portal and blinked as a pair of crimson red eyes glanced back at her. She gasped as she looked at the pair of eyes that looked back at her.
"Hello? Who are you?" Rom asked the pair of eyes curiously as she hovered closer to the pair of eyes. Out of nowhere, a set of 3 arms grabbed her and almost pulled her into the portal!
"Eek! Let me go! Help!" Rom called as she was pulled into the portal. The portal closed behind Rom.
-Meanwhile; Lowee- Blanc looked up from her novel and looked out the window.
"Something's wrong... Why do I have a bad feeling?" Blanc asked as she stood up and walked over to the open window.
"Oh, Lady Blanc... Is there something wrong?" Mina called as she walked into Blanc's room.
"I just got a bad feeling all of a sudden," Blanc told Mina as she transformed into White Heart, "Did Ram return from Lastation? Where is Rom?"
"Rom went on a few quests near Lowee Snowfield... Ram should be returning from Lastation soon," Mona told her.
"What?! Rom went to handle some quests?!" Blanc asked seriously, "By herself?! I had a problem with Ram going to Lastation... But, she had Bradley bring her! Rom went by herself out there!"
"Lady Blanc, calm down..." Mina told her.
"Like hell I would calm down! My little sister is out there, probably in danger!" White Heart told Mina, "I'll be back!" White Heart flew out the open window.
"She always has a bad feeling for her little sisters... But, she's never wrong for having those protective older sister feelings," Mina smiled.
-Lastation- Ram stopped and looked behind her. Bradley and a lilac blue haired girl looked at Ram with concern.
"What is it, Ram? Something wrong?" the girl asked.
"I don't know... I feel off for some reason," Ram told them.
"Off? What do you mean, off?" Bradley asked Ram.
"I don't know! Rom must be in trouble!" Ram said as she transformed into a similar version of what Rom turned into and flew off.
"Ram, wait!" the girl called.
"I'll go after her, Nepgear... Wait here," Bradley told her as he transformed into Green Brother and flew after Ram.
"Be careful," Nepgear said.
-Lowee; Later- Ram and Bradley lands in front of the Basillicom just as a chair flew out of a window.
"Uh oh... Something happened," Bradley said.
"I hope Rom's all right," Ram said.
"YOU LET ROM GO ALL BY HERSELF! NOW, SHE'S MISSING! THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!" Blanc's voice roared through the large meeting hall as Ram and Bradley walked in.
"What?! Rom's missing?!" Ram gasped as she looked over at Blanc yelling at Mina.
"Oh, Ram... Welcome back. And, yes... Rom went missing not too long ago. We got reports of a large white portal appearing in the sky above Lowee Snowfield and pulling Rom inside. The reports don't stop there... But, this really worries me," Mina said sadly as she turned to Ram, "I am really and truly sorry for putting Rom in danger."
"You better be! If anything else happens to Rom... It's on you!" Blanc snarled as she glared angrily at Mina.
"Calm down, Blanc... Mina, I have to ask. Where was the portal located, again?" Bradley asked.
"Lowee Snowfield," Mina told him.
"That place is notorious for having several unnatural occurrences happening there. Earthquakes, blizzards... You name it, that place is a dangerous dungeon. Where that portal took Rom is a mystery," Bradley said as he folds his arms, "But, I have a feeling that Rom will be okay."
-Earth; Kanto; Route 1- Rom slowly opened her eyes and looked around at the lush green scenery.
"Where... Am... I?" Rom groaned as she looked around at her surroundings. Suddenly, a large brown bear like creature with a ring on its stomach walked up to Rom and roared as it swung its paws at her.
"Eek!" Rom screamed as she rolled out of the way as the bear scratched the ground where Rom was laying. She quickly got up and backed away slowly from the bear as it got on all fours and crawls menacingly towards her.
"Nice bear... Don't eat me, please..." Rom said in a panic as she held up her hands. It roared again and charged at her.
"KYAAAHHH!"
"Flare Blitz!" a female voice called. A large red fire dog like creature crashed into the bear and knocked it into a nearby oak tree. The bear slid down the tree and raced off on its hind legs.
"Phew..." Rom sighed as the dog creature went over to her and nudged her, "Thank you for saving me."
"No problem," the same voice called as a girl about 17 with long brown hair tied in a white baseball cap with a symbol of a ball on it walked up to Rom and pets the dog creature's long yellow mane, "Say you're welcome, Justice." Justice barked happily as it nudged the girl. The girl wore a sleeveless black blazer over a white t-shirt and blue short shorts with long white socks under black boots.
"Who are you? I've never seen you around here before," she said, "Rather, I've never seen someone like you in this region before."
"I'm Rom... I'm the CPU Candidate of Lowee," Rom told the girl.
"Lo-what now? I've never heard of that place," the girl told Rom.
"Huh? Isn't this Gamindustri?" Rom asked.
"No... This is Earth," the girl told Rom, "Maybe you hit your head somewhere, kid..."
"No! I'm telling the truth," Rom told her.
"Ok... Tell me more about this Lowee and Gamindustri places," the girl said, "In the meantime, let's head towards Pallet Town." The girl and Rom walked and talked all the way to Pallet Town, telling each other about themselves.
"You're a goddess? Really? Hard to believe," the girl told Rom.
"Well, I have no reason to lie," Rom told the girl.
"I see... Well, let me introduce myself. My name is Hilda," she told Rom.
"Nice to meet you, Miss Hilda," Rom smiled as she bowed to Hilda.
"Now, now... No need to be that respectful, Rom," Hilda smiled as she looked down at Rom.
"But, you saved me from that bear... I am grateful," Rom smiled.
"It's nothing," Hilda smiled, "I don't tolerate bullies."
"You sound like Mister Bradley," Rom smiled.
"Huh... Well, how about we meet Prof. Oak? He's the leading researcher on Pokémon," Hilda told her, "Maybe we can get someone to help you out."
"Will you help me, Miss Hilda?" Rom asked Hilda.
"Me? Are you sure?" Hilda asked her.
"Mmm!" Rom smiled.
"I'll do whatever I can," Hilda smiled, "Don't worry."
"Ehehe... Yay!" Rom giggled. Hilda smiled as she and Rom kept walking to Pallet Town.
-Pallet Town; An Hour Later- Hilda and Rom made it to Pallet Town and looked around.
"Prof. Oak's lab should be somewhere around here," Hilda said as she looked around. Rom walked up to a small pigeon like creature and pets its head. It cooed and flew up onto Rom's head.
"So cute..." Rom smiled.
"Well, someone's adjusting," Hilda smirked, "You befriended a Pidgey."
"A Pidgey? This is one of those Pokémon you were talking about?" Rom asked.
"Yep... It's a Normal/Flying type," Hilda smiled, "It's very common to encounter Pidgey in Kanto. I'm from Unova... And, Pidgey are rare to come across in Unova," Hilda smirked.
"Uh-huh..." Rom said as she pulled out a white notebook and pen from her left shoulder bag and began to scribble notes into the notebook, "Common in Kanto... Uncommon in Unova."
"You take notes?" Hilda giggled as she looked at Rom.
"Yes... My older sister always told me to document whenever I come to a new place," Rom told Hilda.
"Speaking of which, aren't you getting hot from wearing that outfit?" Hilda asked Rom. Rom was still dressed in her winter outfit.
"Well... Kinda. But, I got used to wearing this... Wearing anything else makes me uncomfortable," Rom told Hilda.
"Look, we need to get you a makeover... I don't want to see you suffer from a heatstroke," Hilda told Rom, "Luckily, a close friend of mine lives here... Let's go visit her first."
"Okay..." Rom sighed.
-Leaf's House- A green haired girl wearing a white hat over her green hair was packing her large yellow bag as a knock was heard on her front door. She looked up and smirked. She recognized the knock.
"Is that you, Hilda?" she called as she puts on her yellow bag and raced to the door. She opened it and Hilda and Rom were waiting on the other side of the door.
"Hilda, it's been a while! How's life?"
"Girl, it's only been a few months... Calm down," Hilda giggled as she hugged her friend.
"Who's this?" the girl asked.
"Leaf, this is Rom... She's from a faraway place. Rom, this is Leaf... The new Champion of Kanto. She beat Red about 2 months ago," Hilda told Rom.
"Wow..." Rom said in amazement.
"Rom, right? Well, you're improperly dressed for the season... Come in," Leaf smiled. Rom slowly walked into the house behind Hilda and Leaf closed the door behind her.
-Meanwhile; Planeptune- Histoire hovered in place as she listened to what Blanc was telling her.
"I understand, Blanc... But, you must calm down. I will search for Rom through the dimensions," Histoire explained as she held her hands up in defense.
"Please... Find Rom. I'm really worried about her," Blanc told Histoire. Histoire closed her eyes and began to glow.
"It will take 3 days to find and contact Rom... Please be patient with me😔," Histoire told them.
"Take your time, Histy... We know you will find her no matter what," Bradley smiled.
"Oh! Hey, Blanc! Ram, too! What are you guys doing here?" Neptune called as she walked up to them.
"Shh! Histoire is searching for Rom... Let's take this conversation somewhere else," Bradley told Neptune as he led her away. Bradley also grabbed Histoire and carried her in his hands as he led the girls to the elevator that led to the top floor of the Basillicom.
"I see... So, Rom went missing?" Neptune asked, "How're they holding up?"
"Ram is trying to be brave and not cry about it... And, Blanc is liable to explode at anyone," Bradley told Neptune.
"Grr..." Blanc snarled.
"Down, girl!" Bradley panicked.
"This is not how I wanted to spend my Saturday," Ram pouted as she looked at the ground, "I hope you're still okay, Rom..."
-Earth; Pallet Town- "Come on out, Rom... We need to see you all dolled up!" Leaf giggled, "I really outdone myself, huh?" A large purple PitBull like creature nods its head and smirked when it gave her a thumbs up.
"Oh, boy... I hope you didn't make her a pin up model," Hilda sighed.
"I would never!" Leaf gasped as she held a hand over her chest.
"It's you, Leaf... You would so do something along the lines of that," Hilda smirked as she pets Justice on the head.
"Well... I'm hurt," Leaf smirked. Rom walked into the living room and looked at Hilda.
"Is this... All right?" Rom asked as she looked down at her new outfit. Rom was dressed in a blue blouse under a black jacket; a blue skirt with pink tights underneath; and, a pair of pink boots. She had her blue shoulder bag over her left shoulder as she fixed her pink fingerless gloves on her hands.
"Wow... She looks like she could kick butt any day of the week," Hilda smirked as she nods her head. Rom placed a pink beret on her head and smiled.
"Perfect," Rom smiled.
"Now, she's ready! Magnificent!" Leaf smirked as she blew out a kiss through her right index finger and thumb, "So, what are you gonna do now?"
"Hmm... I don't know," Rom said as the Pidgey from before flew onto her right shoulder and nudged her.
"That Pidgey from before... Looks like it took a liking to you, Rom," Hilda smirked.
"I guess... What should I do?" Rom asked.
"See, these kind of situations happen every day. Here, take this," Leaf smiled as she hands Rom a red and white ball, "That's a Poké Ball... You use it to catch and befriend the Pokémon of your choice."
"Mm-hmm... Ok, Pidgey. Do you want to be my friend?" Rom asked as she looked at the Pidgey.
"Pidgey!" Pidgey cooed as it hovered to the floor and faced Rom.
"Looks like it's a yes," Hilda said, "Next, you toss the Poké Ball to the Pokémon." Rom nods and lightly tossed the Poké Ball towards Pidgey. The Pidgey disappeared into the Poké Ball as the ball lightly tapped Pidgey on the head. The ball lands on the floor and shook once... Twice... 3 times... Until a small CLICK was heard.
"There you go, Rom... You caught the Pidgey," Leaf smiled as Rom picked the Poké Ball up off of the ground.
"I caught my first Pokémon... Yay!" Rom smiled as she held up the Poké Ball to the air. She tossed the Poké Ball out and Pidgey came out ina red ball of light.
"Here's a little friendly tip... You can nickname your Pokémon into anything you want," Hilda told Rom, "Justice's real name is Arcanine."
"Ok... I'll name you... Oni," Rom told the Pidgey. Oni cooed as it flew onto Rom's shoulder.
"Good... Now, let's go see Prof. Oak," Hilda told her as she stood up.
"You, too? I was on my way to see the old man," Leaf smirked as she slung her yellow bag over her shoulder.
"Great... Let's go together," Hilda smiled as the group of 3 went out the door.
