Hey,everyone!
I`ve had the idea of writing a fic about the world of Pokemon in the past for quite some time and finally decided to do it.
I`ve decided that it would be best if it is a journey fic,the vision of this world when Pokemon were kept in apricorn-made pokeballs and there were many Pokemon still shrouded in a veil of mistery.
This is my first fic so I`m quite a Noob at this so I would appreciate your opinions as it would help me to improve my writing.
I set the rating to teen as the fic will include some swearing and violence.
Oh,and one last thing:the prologue is short but the chapters will be longer.Enjoy!

Prologue
Professor Oak looked up from his paperwork. People were shouting something out on the streets of Pallet Town. They seemed to repeat only one single word over and over.
"Hey,Rog,can you come here for a moment?"-Oak called his aide.
Oak`s youngest aide nervously made his way towards his mentor`s desk. He started working at Oak pokemon lab just two weeks ago and respected Oak alot. After all it indeed was a great honour to work for the world`s greatest Pokemon researcher.
"What do you need,sir?"-he asked.
Oak leaned forward a bit:"What are they shouting outside?"
Aide responded:"I think it`s 'gold'... but that doesn`t make any sense. Do you need anything else,sir?"
Oak didn`t react as he was thinking over something very deeply.
"Sir,can I do anything else for you?"
"No,no,thank you!"-Oak quickly snapped out of thinking.
The aide was just about to leave when Oak thought of something again:"Hey,Rog,just one more thing!"
The aide was very nervous as he turned again:"What is it,sir?"
Oak smiled gently:"Please stop with all the 'sir' fuss. We are all equal in our seeking for truth."I consider you as my coleague and you should do the same."
The aide relaxed a bit and let out a smile.
"Yes,si-...professor!"
The aide left leaving Oak to his thoughts.
"So,Gold has returned from Mt.Silver and is on his way here. The excitement outside means that he had defeated Red. This boy is amazing. I am glad I entrusted him a Pokedex and approved his travel to Mt.Silver. Who knows-maybe he is not the only young trainer with such a talent. Maybe there are others in far away regions of Japan like Hoenn and Sinnoh.
...
Sinnoh."
Oak was preparing a trip to his old friend,Rowan. As he remembered their adventuring times,he looked at the photo on his desk. Rowan took that photo at the Slowpoke well. It was a picture of Oak and Kurt with a young lady standing between them.
"Those were the times."-Oak whispered to himself.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So I updated the post to contain chapter one. Here it is.
Chapter 1
The peace of nightime Viridian Town was only disrupted by occasional distant cry of a Hoothoot or the sound of Rattata digging trough trash cans. The town's residents were mostly at their homes after a day of work. It was time for daily Goldenrod News and everyone who had a radio was trying to tune in to the waves coming from the far away city.
At the house on the edge of town,nearby town's school,in a moderately sized house,three people were listening to the radio. Two of them were the parents and the third one was their child,a boy that was about seventeen years old. The newsreporter's voice spoke out loud trough the radio:
"And now special newsreparations for space travel to the Moon,Earth's satelite,that The US are commiting are coming to their end. Their research centers have announced today that they will be ready to launch a rocket with a human crew in just few months. This means that they will beat Soviet in the race to claim the Moon. We wil continue to report on the further development of this man's great undertaking. Thank you for your attention,and please tune in tommorow for Goldenrod News."
As soon as the news ended,the boy sprang up and ran out trough the open door. Once outside,he leaned on a tree in the backyard of his house and stared at the full moon. He had a short brown hair and brown eyes which glared angrily at the Moon. He was of average height for his age and had turned eighteen just a week ago.
He was very upset about the news. The problem was simple-he hated Americans. Everyone around him admired these people,but how could they forget what they have done just twenty years ago. These people were at war with Japan and have used the most unhonorable way of warfare.
They used a bomb that did not choose its victims,a horrible weapon of mass destruction,and its impact was still present. Hoenn,where the second bomb had been used,was still recovering of radiation.
But the worst thing was that his parents were one of those who happily accepted everything western as Japan started opening to the world and they wanted to show it to everyone by even going that far to import a Purrloin to keep it as a pet.
"For Pete's sake",the teen thought,"that thing is useless. If it's not sleeping,then it is licking itself clean. Meowth would at least bring money back home."
The western craze his parents had didn't stop with the birth of their first and only child-it just got worse.They gave him a western name. He would have been much happier with a more traditional name than Samuel but he got used to it. But Sam always felt isolated at school as he was one of very few students in his class with such a name. But the western world was gaining more and more influence and now it wasn't that rare in Kanto to have a western name.
Sam had never been good with people. He had few friends and was average at social sciences.But what he lacked there,he made up in natural sciences-especially biology. From his early age,he wanted to know how the world functioned,and the driving force for his imagination were Pokemon. Sam wanted to know more about their misteries and that made him remember his school.
All schools in Japan had a rule which stated that 3rd grade would end the first Monday of May so that the students which by that time have turned eighteen could go on their Pokemon League challenge during the summer. Oak had just turned eighteen and he was glad that his best friend could go with him.
Sam's best friend was Rowan. A few months older than Sam and a complete opposite of him.
Rowan was great at social skills and was a bit of a poet,but he hated math and other "numbers" sciences as he called them. Rowan was also a bug cather. Actually he was the very best one from this side of Viridian forest. His secret was that he caught only one Pokemon,but he trained it which other bug cathers were not doing. They sometimes mocked him of cathing only one bug but his Caterpie proved them wrong by sweeping their Pokemon in battle with ease. But having only one Pokemon was far better than none and Sam didn't have any and the school was going to end in just a few weeks meaning that Sam needed to get his first Pokemon as soon as possible.
His first thought was of taking one of his pet Pokemon with him but his loyal Growlithe was quite old and it would be dangerous for it to participate in Pokemon battles and Purrloin...well the reasons were pretty obvious.
That is why Sam had spared some cash and bought an Apriball. Planning ahead should pay off. Sam clinged to that thought and went back into his house. He needed some rest before tommorow.It will be a big day. Sam will go to the grass on the route to Pallet hill to catch a Pokemon.
...
Sam woke up to the sunshine coming in trough the window in his room. He quickly remembered his big job for today. He eagerly stood up and changed into his T-shirt,trousers and blue jacket. He carefully took out a wooden orb which was wrapped in a sheet from his drawer,placed it in his pocket and went to kitchen to eat breakfast. He quickly ate it and told his mom that he will go to Rowan's and got out of house. After leaving his house,he did not turn north up the main street where Rowan lived,but to the south,to the plains which lead to the Pallet hill and the sea.
As he walked there,he took out the orb from his pocket. It was a small,wooden orb that was surprisingly heavy for its size due to the mechanism that it stored and which could capture Pokemon. A round button was located on its top and pressing it would release the Pokemon stored inside. What an amazing invention Apriball is. It's capabilites range depending on which apricorn is used in production. For example a net ball is made out of an apricorn which smelt of salt and seaweed,soothing water type Pokemon and making it easier to capture them. Dive ball uses a different,but equally efficient method. It is effective only when trown under the water's surface as it utilizes underwater pressure to make sure that the Pokemon that it is trown on cannot force it's way out of it. And,of course,every Apriball was hand-made,thus making it even the regular Apriball such as Sam's quite expensive.
This gave Sam a feeling of selfconfidence as he looked at the powerful device resting in his hand while walking towards the plains where he will catch his very first Pokemon.
