It all starts in the quiet town of New Bark. Where the main character Chris is in for a rude awakening.
Mother: Chris!!! Wake up!!!!!
Chris: No
Mother: If that's how it is then, so be it. *Sends out HootHoot* HootHoot use peck to wake Chris up.
HootHoot: Hoot!! *Uses peck multiple times on Chris*
Chris: Ouch! Alright, alright. I'm up. *Changes out of his pajamas and goes downstairs*
Mother: Good you're awake now. I couldn't believe that you was going to sleep through your 13th birthday.
Narrator: New laws have been set in place for Pokémon. The newest law is that children cannot start their adventure until the age of 13.
Chris: Oh yeah, it is my birthday isn't it? What did you get me?
Mother: A new Pokégear and the professor has something for you too.
Chris: Really??? A Pokégear?!?!?
Mother: Yes and it's the latest version. You can have as many contacts as you want. Also the map and radio are built in. *Hands Chris 2 Pokégears*
Chris: Why 2?
Mother: The other one is for your friend, Cynthia. Don't you have a crush on her?
Chris: *blushes* N-no I don't. D-don't be ridiculous. *Stops blushing and gets serious* Fine I'll give it to her, what do I care?
Mother: *smiles* fine Mr. Tough Guy go already and don't forget to talk with the professor.
Chris: I won't. See ya Mother and HootHoot. *Says as he walks out the door*
HootHoot: Hoot!!!
Mother: I know. I'm going to miss him too.
-As Chris is about to knock on the door of the house where Cynthia lives, she comes running out and barges into Chris-
Chris: Now I'm definitely awake. Good morning Cynthia.
Cynthia: I'm soooooo sorry Chris and Good Morning to you.
- Cynthia and Chris has been friends since childhood. People say that they're inseparable. They will be the same age tomorrow-
Chris: *rubbing his head* Why did you come running out?
Cynthia: The professor wanted me and I wanted to give you this. Happy Birthday. *She says while handing Chris a present*
Chris: Thanks Cynthia. *Chris thinks to himself* (I have to remember that Cynthia's birthday is in exactly ) Do you want me to open it now?
Cynthia: It's your present. Open it whenever you want.
Chris: Then I'll open it now. *Opens the present and finds a great rod in it* Wow, this must've cost a fortune!!
Cynthia: Actually, it was my dad's. He wanted you to have it when you got older.
Chris: Oh is that so? Well I thank him for this. Oh yeah, my mother bought you this. *Hands Cynthia the Pokégear*
Cynthia: *gets starry eyed* Wow, and it's the latest version too. How did your mom afford this, let alone 2?
Chris: I don't know? I choose not to question it. Well we best not keep Professor Elm waiting. Let's go
Cynthia: Alright!
*They both run to and inside the Pokémon lab*
Chris and Cynthia: Hey Professor Elm.
Pro. Elm: Oh, hello Chris and Cynthia. You 2 have finally made it.
Chris: Yea, what did you want us for?
Pro. Elm: I need your guy's help. My friend, Mr. Pokémon, has an egg that he believes to be a Pokémon egg. He can't get it here safely and I have no aides available to help. So I need you 2 to go out there and get it for me. I'll even give you 2 a rare Pokémon for the trip. So what do you say?
Chris and Cynthia: *both are starry eyed* Yes we will help!!!!
Pro. Elm: Thanks. I have 3 to choose from. Chris, you can choose first since it is your birthday. *Aide walks out with 3 Pokémon* Their names are Chikorita, Cyndaquil, and Totodile. Chikorita is a grass type, Cyndaquil is fire, and Totodile is water. So who do you choose, Chris?
Chris: I choose Cyndaquil. I like fire types. So that was an easy choice.
Pro. Elm: Okay. *Gives Chris Cyndaquil's Pokéball* What about you Cynthia?
Cynthia: I don't know. They both are very adorable. But since I have to choose. I choose Chikorita. Since I studied their evolutions and Chikorita is the only one that stays cute.
Pro. Elm: Neat. *Gives Cynthia Chikorita's Pokéball* Now thats settled, you can go for the egg tomorrow since Cynthia is still to young to go out with a Pokémon.
Cynthia: Oh.....
Chris: It's fine. I can wait another day. Let's go Cynthia, we, especially you, have a big day tomorrow.
Cynthia: Yea I do. I can't be sad now. Let's go.
- As they leave the lab Cynthia grabs Chris's arm-
Chris: What is it Cynthia?
Cynthia: Let's have a battle.
Chris: Why?
Cynthia: I want to see who will be the better trainer. Are you scared?
Chris: No I'm not!!! Let's do this! Go Cyndaquil!!!!
Cynthia: Go Chikorita!!!
