Leon yawned,stretching his legs and arms as his eyes fluttered open.He looked out of the window, momentarily blinded kwa the sunlight,before hopping out of bed.He looked in his mirror,a grin plastered on his face."Finally!I'm gonna become a trainer today!"He shouted,probably waking the entire neighborhood in the process,before rushing to change out of his pajamas.A few dakika later,he looked in the mirror again.He had on blue shorts and a black t shati with a blue blazer over it,and some blue sneakers.After picking up his black bookbag,he dashed down stairs."Hey Mom!I gotta go!Bye!"He ran towards the door,but was stopped kwa his mother grabbling him kwa the ear."Trainer au not,you will not leave this house without a proper breakfast young man!Now sit and eat!"Leon groaned in pain as he took a seat."Oh....my precious little boy is leaving on a journey!It seems like just yesterday wewe were taking your first steps!You've grown up so fast!"She said,smiling sadly at him.Leon looked up at her."I'll still call wewe while i'm gone mom.You don't have to be so upset!"He grinned,and for a brief moment,she thought she saw his father there instead of him.As he finished his food,he gave her one last goodbye,before heading out.She watched him go farther and farther away.Leon...your so much like your father...She looked at a picture hanging on the ukuta of her and her husband."I wonder what wewe would think of him."She headed back into the jikoni to do the dishes,thoughts of her son and husband running through her mind.

"I made it!"He exclaimed as he approached the small group of tables the other trainers-to-be occupied in Aquacorde town.As he got closer,he spotted Shauna,and took a kiti, kiti cha at the meza, jedwali she was sitting."Hey Shauna!You ready to get our pokemon today?"Shauna nodded excitedly,smiling."Uh huh!I can't wait to travel around the whole world and see amazing things!"Leon was about to say something back,but was interrupted kwa the sound of footsteps.A woman wearing a white lab kanzu, koti that extended to her knees,chestnut brown hair wrapped in a bun,and sky blue eyes that were behind a pair of glasses.she took a kiti, kiti cha in front of the children,plasing four cases on her table."My name is Lyra.I am the assistant of Professor Sycamore.He couldn't come himself due to his research,so i will be giving wewe twelve children your first pokemon.she opened the first case,which revealed Froakie,Chespin,And Fennekin.The sekunde case held Fletchling,Scatterbug,and bunnelby.The third one had Elekid,Magby,and Pancham.The final one contained Ghastly,Eevee,and Abra.

"One of these pokemon will become your partner,so please choose carefully.You may choose now."Lyra said.Each kid looked at the pokemon silently,before Shauna spoke up."I'll go first!"She then walked over to Fennekin,pointing at it."I want Fennekin!"She declared,rubbing the pokemon's head.Lyra handed her Fennekin's Pokéball,a Pokédex,and grinned."Wonderful choice!Who'd like to go next?"Leon stood."I choose Froakie!"He walked over to Lyra,receiving the Pokéball,before sitting down."I'll take Pancham!"A chubby boy with a vanilite t shirt,Tierno,said,standing to his feet."It would be the best first Pokémon for my dance team!"Next,a girl named Serena with honey blonde hair and a pink hait and red skirt, upindo chose."Hmm....i want....Fletchling!"Then another boy kwa the name of Calem chose Ghastly.The last one to go was a small boy named Trevor,who received Chespin.

After everyone got to know their Pokémon a little,Lyra spoke again."Today,each of wewe will begin your journies.Whether it be as a trainer,ranger,coordinator au breeder,i encourage wewe to follow your dreams alongside your Pokémon!Good luck!"The woman left,and everyone else began to follow suit.Leon and Shauna were about to leave when they they were stopped kwa a familiar face."Dan!What do wewe want?"Leon demanded,eyes narrowing.It suddenly grew quiet as all obf the children turned to them.Dan smirked as a Magby appeared inayofuata to him."I want a battle!I'll finally run it through your head that wewe wilk never be a Champion!"Leon was never one to back down."Your on!I'm gonna pay wewe back for bullying me when i was little!"

Leon and Dan both stood a fair distance from each other,pokémon ready"Froakie,start off with agility to get up close!"Froakie shot straight up to Magby,surprising it and Dan."Now attack with Bubble!"Froakie let loose a stream of bubbles at Magby."Magby,jump in the air to avoid it and use pound!"Magby jumped clean over the bubbles as it's hand started glowing white."Froakie watch out!"This proved to be useless as Magby's fist connected with Froakie's face,sending it flying back.Leon grimaced.[I can't lose to dan!][/i]He thought furiously,looking to Froakie,who had just finished recovering."Froakie,use a pound of your own!"Froakie nodded as it shot towards Magby,hand glowing.Dan smirked."Magby,dodge it and finish it with ember!"Magby jumped to the side as it released a few machungwa, chungwa bullet shaped embers from it's mouth."Counter with bubble!"The two attacks caused steam to rise.Both trainers stared intently at the field as the steam cleared.Both Froakie and Magby were unconscious.Dan frowned,returning his Magby silently."Don't think tieing with me makes wewe a real trainer,punk!"He turned away from Leon."You just got lucky!"he stalked off,leaving Leon to tend to Froakie.

"Froakie,return!"As the blue frog returned to it's Pokéball,Leon turned to Shauna,who jogged toward him."That was great Leon!Even if it ended in a tie!You were so cool in your first battle!"She exclaimed,causing the boy to blink in surprise."Uh....thanks!"Then he picked up his backpack,placing Froakie's Pokéball on his hip."I'm so psyched to go on a journey!i'm really going to leave and travel around all of Kalos!"Shauna nodded,as they both headed to the exit of Aquacorde.

As the duo approached the exit,Shauna began to feel upset.She didn't want to say goodbye to her best friend.she wanted to go on her journey and see the whole world with him.A journey wouldn't be as fun kwa herself.As she thought that,Leon stopped."So i guess this is where we part ways,huh?"He asked.Shauna looked down,sadly staring at the ground.She didn't want to part ways!"Leon...we don't have to part ways wewe know...."She alisema quietly.Leo looked puzzled."What do wewe mean?"Shauna looked back up"We could just travel together."Leon looked to be in thought for a few moments,before smiling and nodding."Sure!The zaidi the merrier!"Shauna sighed in relief that she'd be with a friend,and smiled back.Leon then started walking again,hands behind his head."Come on Shauna!Santalune city's right after that forest!"He pointed to the forest a a bit ahead of them as he walked.Shauna started walking too,and the duo departed down Route 2.

Meanwhile,another boy,who had carrot-orange hair and was unusually short was running through a forest,his chespin in his arms.A horde of Beedrill were chasing him,and tears were flowing down his cheeks."Someone help me!"He shouted as he turned,hoping to loose his pursuers.as he saw the path he remembered he used to enter the forest,his face lit up with hope."I'm almost out!"he exclaimed hopefully.as he approached the exit of the path,he tripped on a rock,sending himself and Chespin crashing to the ground."His eyes widened as the horde approached.He screamed as tne group of Beedrill descended upon him.





Okay!I guess now wewe know who the third main character is.Trevor may have seemed a little out of character in his brief appearance in chapter one,but in this story,Trevor is Shy and has a very low self-asteem(however wewe spell it).As the story goes on,he'll become zaidi bold.He still wants to picha graph every Pokémon and is still uber smart though.

Also,about the twelve trainer thing,i just don't see how so many people become trainers without a Regional starter unless they have zaidi options to choose from,and i wanted zaidi characters in my story to begin the same siku as Trevor,Leon,and Shauna do.(Calem,Serena,and Tierno will all appear pretty often in the story.Dan will appear every once in a while,but not often until cloer to the Kalos league.)Anyway,next chapter will be

Befriending the Beedrill of Santalune forest!
