Chapter 1 - All journeys have to start somewhere

Sequo woke up and walked downstairs. As he was walking down the stairs, he wondered if his mother would remember the promise she had made to him. Would this be the day he’d receive his starter pokemon? And what would it be like?

“Good morning, Sequo.”

He could hear his mother saying this. He was excited, yet nervous. Would she even remember? After all, it had been a while since she’d made that promise to him.

“Do you know what day it is?”

His mother asked. Now he knew she remembered. However, he decided to act unaware just to see her reaction.

“Um… Tuesday?”

“Yes, but that’s not what I meant. Today is the day I promised you’d receive your starter pokemon.”

He heard what she said and he started to get really excited. What would his starter pokemon be? Would it be useful in battle?

“Let’s go outside, I’ll show it to you there.”

He followed her outside to the yard. Celestic Town was a beautiful place, it was known to be the town that preserves the Sinnoh region’s history. It made sense why his mother would live here, after all, she was known as the researcher of myths.

“Come on out, Gible!”

She said, sending out a small blue shark-like pokemon from her pokeball. This was a pokemon he knew very well, as it was just like the pokemon his mother had used, even evolving it into a powerful Garchomp. And this pokemon was his now.

“I’ll call you Fin!”

He said. It was pretty clear that the two would end up forming a great bond. Now, it was time for him to prove himself and follow in his mother's footsteps. It was time for him to start the journey to become the champion, just like his mother, Cynthia, the champion of the Sinnoh region.

Maybe he could even become as strong as, or maybe even stronger than his older sister, Duca, who was known as one of the strongest trainers from the Unova region.

Chapter 2 - The first battle

A few days after obtaining his starter, Sequo was traveling through the rocky route known as Route 211. The route was located west of Celestic Town, and it would lead to Eterna City, the place where Gardenia’s gym was located.

His bag was packed with useful items such as pokeballs, potions and other things that he would most likely need throughout his journey.

Suddenly, another pokemon appeared behind a nearby rock. He looked at the pokedex he had also received from his mother. It showed the pokemon was a rock/ground type named Geodude, a fairly common pokemon in the Sinnoh Region’s rocky areas.

This would be his first pokemon battle. While he had seen pokemon battles on TV, the experience was always different to actually lead a pokemon into one.

“Go, Fin! Use bite!”

He commanded with a confident voice, sending out his first partner pokemon.

As the Gible bit its teeth into Geodude’s body, the attack dealt a bit of damage, but not enough to win him the battle yet. Meanwhile, the Geodude used rollout to begin rolling at the Gible. As the move’s power would increase the longer the battle took, he had to think of a plan quickly enough.

However, Sequo was not completely out of options.

“Fin, use dig!”

The Gible burrowed under the ground, leaving the Geodude wondering where it had gone.

“Use twister!”

As the Gible resurfaced out of the ground, swiftly creating a vortex of draconic energy to eventually knock out the Geodude. The Geodude fainted on the ground, defeated.

“Good job.”

He could hear a voice talking to him. He looked around, but there was no one but him to see in the area.

“Who said that?”

He asked, but there was no response. Maybe he had just imagined it, and it probably wouldn’t end up being a big deal anyway.
