“Omnomnomnomnmonnm!!”

You watched on in shock as Grivent scarfed down the Barraskewda patties like it was nothing. “You have quite the appetite Grivent…” your mom said with a weak polite smile, hoping that this ravenous pokemon leaves enough food for her and you. 

Between careful bites of your own food you asked, “So Grivent are you feeling better now?” 

“Yup!” The cat pokemon responded with a satisfied sigh, putting its paws on its stomach. 

“Good! That means you can come with me to the Pokémon Research Laboratory.”

“Not happening.” Grivent said flatly, hopping out of its seat and heading to the kitchen's exit. “What! Why not?!” You questioned as you stood up from your seat, how many times were you going to have to go after this pokemon? 

“Why would I let some human study and poke at me?” Grivent said with a huff as it turned to face you. 

You let out a sigh as you looked down at the cat pokemon, ‘It really is stubborn… what can I even do here…’ You thought for a moment before suggesting ”How ‘bout you stay the night here, before heading off. It’s super dark out and with all of the excitement you went through today you’re probably really tired.” hoping that this suggestion would convince the pokemon to stay a bit longer until you could find a way for it to come with you to see Researcher Crewl. 

The cat pokemon grumbled and pondered on your suggestion for a moment before nodding, “Alright. But in the morning I’m outta here.” It said, sounding resolute. “Deal.” You responded with a nod. 

Later on, you had a makeshift bed made for the cat sized pokemon in the living room which was where you were also sleeping since your room was filled with boxes that you had yet to unpack. 

As both you and Grivent laid on the floor you flipped through channels before landing on one that was in the midst of broadcasting a trainer going through the elite four battle. 

It was looking to be a close battle, the pokemon trainer and elite four member Vil Schoenheit

“Go! Diggerby!” The Trainer shouted as they threw out their last pokemon. “Froslass use Ice Beam!” Vil commanded their pokemon. “Dodge it with Dig!” The Trainer quickly responded in turn. 

 Grivent “Woah!” quickly sat up from its bed and looked at the T.V, its eyes now glued to the screen, “Human! What is this?” The cat pokemon asked excitedly. 

“It’s a pokemon battle. It’s a part of the yearly Spiewere region tournament…I think this is a rerun from last year." You informed Grivent, a lot of new trainers should’ve gotten started recently but not fast enough to get to the elite four yet. “That one of the lucky trainers to get this far, I’ve heard most couldn’t even get past the 4th gym.” 

“Tournament?” Grivent asked. 

“Yeah. Trainers battle through gyms throughout the region and if they can beat the elite 4 and the champion, they become the new region champion and get a huge cash prize. The trainer and their pokemon will be recognized as the best.”

Diggerby popped out of the ground and hit Froslass with its large ears making it fly back. “Diggerby use Brutal Swing!” The Trainer quickly ordered, trying to get a super effective hit before its opponent could recover. “BY!” The large digging pokemon charged at the Froslass with dark energy pulsing around its ears before it hit the snow land pokemon. 

“That Ice pokemon is supposed to be the best? It’s getting clobbered by that big rabbit.” Grivent commented as they were entranced by the battle, clearly rooting for the trainers Diggersby. “Don’t underestimate them, battles aren’t just about strength, it's about tactics too. Froslass is super effective against ground types and they’re much faster.” You responded as you watched the battle alongside Grivent. 

Frosslass quickly received from the dark type move, “Froslass, focus.” Vil encouraged their pokemon to shake off the hit. “Now, respond with Blizzard!” Vil commanded, Frosslass swiftly following his direction. The super effective move hit and damaged Diggerby and froze its most important fighting weapon, its ears. 

The battle went on for a few more minutes before it resulted in Diggerby knock out. “What?! That Diggerby should’ve totally won!” Grivent complained as they flopped over, you gave them a sympathetic chuckle. “It’s rare for brute force to make it all the way to the champion. That’s why when I compete I’ll have perfect counters to all of my opponents.” you said with a proud grin, having your own plan to get through the Spiewere League. “Well… if I get my starter.” You said with huff as you remembered that you were now 2 days late to get your starter and regional dex. 

“I’ll become your starter!” Grivent quickly responded, leaving you a bit dumfounded ‘I thought this pokemon didn’t like people?’ “What would be in it for you?” you asked as you looked at the cat pokemon with a raised eyebrow. 

“Easy. I’ll be recognized as the best and with that prize I’ll be able to get whatever food I want. Mehehehheheh!” Grivent said with a victorious laugh, clearly seeing this tournament thing as a cakewalk. 

Your eyes lit up despite the Grivent’s very materialistic goals, ‘My very first pokemon!’. “Wait here!” You said before you quickly got up from your floor bed and ran upstairs to your room. Retrieving a pokeball and a sooth bell. 

You came back down to the living room holding both items, and held out the bronze bell to Grivent. “Here. Since we’ll be partners from here on out.” you said, letting the cat pokemon take it from you. 

Grivent looked down at the friendship item quietly for a moment before tying it around their neck. “Alright.” They faced you with an equally determined expression. 

“Great now-?!” Grivent quickly slapped the pokeball out of your hand with its ribbon. “Nope.” the pokemon said. This was certainly going to be a battle…

You chased Grivent around the living room, trying to catch it in the pokeball. “You have to be in a ball to be my pokemon!” 

“I don’t wanna!”

“I’ll let you out right after! Promise!”

You shouted as you leapt over the couch successfully tackling it before it could dash away again. “Gotcha!” You said as you tapped the ball to its forehead, it shook once. Then twice. 

✨POP! ✨

You successfully caught Grivent!

You sighed as you sat in the waiting area of the pokemon center, your mom having dropped you off and having gone ahead to the house. ‘I wonder if it’s ok…it’s been a few minutes now..’ you leaned forward in your seat as you looked at the closed door where Nurse Joy took the gray cat pokemon. 

You were then quickly snapped out of your thoughts you heard a chime as the sliding doors of the pokemon center opened and in walked in was a tall man with half black and white hair wearing a lab coat by his side walked a Furfrou with a very unique trim. It was different from the standard ones you’d see in the Kalos region. 

He talked with nurse joy at the front desk who then pointed at…you?! ‘Am I in trouble or something?!’

You quickly straightened up as he took confident measured steps towards you, “Evening, I’m Dvius Crewl, a pokemon researcher here in Sage Town and this is my partner, Furfrou.” He kindly introduced himself, trying to ease the tension. 

“Frou!” His spotted Furfrou barked, happily introducing themselves as well. 

Your posture quickly eased once you saw that these two weren’t here to harshly interrogate you and hopefully just have a casual conversation, “I’m  {____}... you're probably here because of the pokemon I brought in right?” 

Divus nodded, “Yes, I wanted to know where-?!” The closed examination door suddenly swung open with a burst of fire, the gray cat pokemon quickly scrambling out with an angry, panicked expression. It quickly went for the sliding doors and ran out into the streets. 

“H-Hey wait!” Nurse Joy yelled as she and her Chansey slightly ran after it “You’re not fully healed yet!” the both of them stopping at the sliding doors.

“Tch. I’ll go get them Nurse Joy.” Divus said, quickly turning away from you with his Furfrou in tow, you swiftly got up after them, “I can help too!” you said as you followed them outside of the pokemon center. You couldn’t just sit around and do nothing. You wanted that pokemon to be alright too.  

Divus looked over his shoulder at you and contemplated for a moment before nodding, “Alright. You take left then call me and get to Pokémon Research Laboratory when you find and catch the Grivent.” he said as he took out his Rotom Phone which flew over to me “?” which let out a confused chime when it saw that I didn’t have a Rotom Phone. You could’ve swore you saw Divus give you a confused and judging look as you manually put in his number. 

You nodded to Divius before you both split up.

‘Wait… I don’t know where anything is.’ you walked around aimlessly through the town, looking very lost. You’ve barely moved in here. How were you supposed to find anything?! “Also… did he say catch?” you muttered to yourself as you thought about it a bit more. Did Divius think you were a trainer? Well you weren’t one yet so you had no pokeballs and no pokemon… 

“I’m way in over my head aren’t I… I can barely help.” you muttered to yourself as you checked your phone battery which was at 20%. ‘Can’t use GPS. I should save it when I have to call Divius.’ 

So aimless wandering it was. Sage Town was a very nice place, lots of people and their pokemon going about their day, as you got closer to the dock market you could see an increase of water types and sea birds, like Wingulls and Watteral. 

“Hey!? Give that back!” a man shouted from his stall as multiple items were knocked over by the gray cat pokemon which was holding a slowbro tail and fruit with its ribbons. 

“Myehheheh! Too Slow!” The gray cat pokemon mocked before it ran off.  

‘I found it!’ You said before you quickly gave chase after the cat pokemon. “Hey come back!” you shouted, trying to get its attention. The cat pokemon looked over its shoulder at you and gave an annoyed sneer, “You again?!” it said before it let out a blast of fire at me as it kept on running. 

“Ah!” You quickly dodged but kept up the chase until you both were all the way down to the beach. 

“Huuuuhh huuhh…” you wheezed as you stopped running as your shoes hit the sand, putting your hands on your knees as you tried to catch your breath. ‘Man… that pokemon is really fast…’ 

The cat pokemon took time to revel in your exhaustion, its neck fluff puffing out with little embers. “Myehheheh! Looks like you’re no match for the speed of the great Grivent!” Grivent said as it held its food over its head in victory. 

A victory that didn’t last long as greedy Wingulls began to swoop down and try to take the Grivent’s food. “Neyh?! Get off me!” The Grivent tried to spit fire at the birds who retaliated with angry squawks before using water gun. 

 “Agh?!” It was super effective against Grivent who stumbled back with wet fur, its ribbons still trying to keep a tight hold on its food.

You looked on at the scene helplessly frantically looking around for anything that could help and then you saw it. A big stick. 

“Rahhhhh!!!” You yelled loudly as you rushed towards the fight to defend the Grivent waving the stick around to scare off the Wingulls. Thankfully this worked and the Wingulls quickly flew away at your show of bravery. Once they were all gone you huffed as you tiredly dropped the stick and looked over at Grivent, who was wet and staring at the ground with an upset and frustrated expression. His food now pecked to bits. 

“Hey… If you want some food. I can get you some.” You softly offered as you knelt down to the cat pokemons level, holding out your hand as a sign of friendship. 

“Why would I trust you…” Grivent grumbled as it slightly turned its head away from your hand. 

“Well I already saved you twice… and my mom makes some good Barraskewda pattys” You tried to convince it with a slight smile. 

Grivent seemed to want to resist more but its stomach grumbled loudly, its ears flattened against its head in embarrassment. “Fine.” It said before it suddenly climbed up your arm and onto your shoulder. “It better the best Barraskewda pattys ever.” Grivent said with a cheeky smile.

‘I'm sure Divus won’t mind if I take a small detour...’

As you wandered a bit more into the grass, avoiding the tall parts so you don’t get jumped by pokemon you saw paw prints that led into the woods. It didn’t look like it belonged to any pokemon you knew, you took a quick glance behind to make sure the adults weren’t paying attention. ‘Just a quick look, if it goes into the tall grass I’ll just turn back.’ you reasoned before you took out your non-rotom phone and took a quick picture of the prints before following them… 

You moved deeper into the woods, small pokemon at the edge of bushes quickly scattered when they saw me, only some of the more curious ones poking their heads out to get a better peek. You continued to follow the paw prints which ended at a bush. ‘So this is where it ends..’ you crouched down and began to reach into the bush to pull the branches aside before, “NYEH!” a burst of blue fire came at you from the bush making you stumble back and fall. 

“Stay away from me human!” A small voice shouted as it began to walk out from its hiding spot. It certainly didn’t look like any pokemon you have seen before. A small gray cat-like creature, with its neck fur puffed out and ribbon-like tendrils raised threateningly.

Your shock quickly turned into concern as you saw how dirty and beat up it looked, looks like this pokemon lost a fight against something. “H-hey calm down! I’m not gonna hurt you.” You said as you raised up your hands in surrender. 

“Don’t lie, human! You’re with that other guy aren’t you?” It questioned with a mean hiss. 

“Other? No. I’m just here with my mom. What “other” guy are you talking about?”

“The one with the giant blue frog.” it stated as it bristled. Or was that trembling? It looked like it was on the verge of fainting but was doing everything in its power to stay standing upright. 

Your eyes widened in recognition, ‘blue frog… the cage… the burn marks in the car!’ it all made sense to you now, so this pokemon must have escaped this guys car and maybe have made them crash. 

“Now… get away!” The gray cat pokemon shouted as it spat another ember at you which you easily dodged. 

Before you could retort with another plea to let you help them the pokemon quickly fainted from exhaustion.  

“Shit!” you hissed under your breath as you quickly rushed over to the fainted pokemon, ‘I have to do something…’ you quickly took off your jacket and wrapped it up before carrying it off to the exit of the woods. ‘I can’t let them see it. That guy with the Seismitoad… they hurt this pokemon!’ you walked briskly to the car, holding your jacket under your arm. Trying to make yourself look as inconspicuous as possible. 

“Hey there you are! Enjoy your walk?” Your mother called out to you as she saw you come out of the woods. The well dressed man was already about to get back into his car but his gaze was a bit drawn to my jacket under my arm. 

“Yeah, just got overheated.” you said as you picked up the pace a little bit more to make it back into the safety of the car.  ‘Don’t worry little guy. We’ll get you to a pokemon center soon…’  

{AN: if I'm writing this correctly this is an self insert/xreader fit so just insert your name or whatever into the blank space.}

‘Uggghhh… another day stuck in this car’

You complained in your mind as your cheek rested against the window, watching the world pass by, and keeping a cautious eye on the pile of stuff beside you to make sure it doesn't topple over onto you after the car makes a turn. 

Your mother looks at you from the rearview mirror, giving you a sympathetic and tired smile “Hey, we're almost there. I swear. I know traffic over the bridge was a bit rough but we only have 60 minutes left of driving before we get to our new home. Right, Roe?” Your mother asked her Rotom Phone which made a chipper “⚡️🎶⚡️!” in response. 

“But mom, we're a day late! What if Professor Trien doesn’t have any more pokemon!” you said with a stressed huff as you ran your hand over your face. ‘I’ll have to wait another month to get my starter… what if by the time I get my pokemon… someone else could’ve beaten the champion already?!’ 

“I’m sure Professor Trien will have some left. And if he doesn't, that means I’ll be able to keep you by my side a bit longer.” Mom said with a light-hearted laugh which you returned with a soft chuckle of your own. You desperately wanted to get started on your pokemon journey now that you were old enough but you would miss your mom a lot too. “Besides I can let you take Flaffy if you really want to get started right away.” Mom offered which you quickly rejected, “No, Flaffy’s your Pokemon. I gotta do this on my own.” ‘I’ll show him… I can be the best!’ You said with a determined stare into the rearview mirror which mom returned with a soft look as the car returned into a comfortable silence with low music playing as we got closer to the seaside town. 

After more driving, you saw smoke rising up from a car in the distance with a man and his pokemon standing beside it.. “Woah?” You said as you stuck your head out of the window a bit to get a better look. There was a man, dressed in some business casual clothing standing beside a Seismitoad, he looked pretty worked up, hands on his hips muttering to himself. 

“Yeah…” Mom mumbled as she saw what you were seeing, “You mind if we pulled over real quick.” She asked you.

“Nah. I need to stretch my legs anyway.” You responded with a shrug as your mom began to slow the car to park the car behind the man’s. 

“Hey! Ya’ll need any help?” Mom said as she stopped the car behind his and put it in park. 

“Oh?! Yes! Thank you!” He said as he looked over to our car. 

You let mom get out first and go up to talk to the man before getting out yourself. You let out a low groan as you stretched your cramped legs and wobbled as you took your first few steps after sitting in the back seat for hours. ‘This is nice…’ you thought to yourself as you took in the greenery around you, rolling hills in front and the woods only a few feet behind. Wingulls were flying around which meant you were pretty close to Port Sage. 

You began to walk up to your mom and the well dressed man with his Seismitoad. They were in a pretty deep conversation about car stuff that you could know less about. You glanced into the back window of his car and did a bit of a double take. Although his windows were a bit blacked out, you could see In his back seat was a broken cage and scorch marks on the seats. Before you could peer into this stranger's car any further “Toad!” The Seismitoad called out looking at you with an expression that you could almost call scolding. Causing your mother and the man to look over at you, “Oh, this is my kid  {____}” you mom introduced you. “Hey.” You did a small wave hoping that the well dressed man didn’t see you trying to look into his car, “nice necklace” you quickly redirected so that he would hopefully talk about something else. 

This seemed to have worked, the man touched the ruby red gemstone “Like it? It's a replica of the gemstone on a Golduck’s forehead.” He said in a bit of a proud tone. “Cool”, you simply responded before letting those two get back to their talk about car troubles walking around the car and away from that Seismitoad’s glaring gaze.
