As the sun began to rise above the horizon, a lone figure passed by on his way to the lab. Travis shivered a bit, for the morning was pretty cold. He sighed and continued his walk, eventually finding himself in front of the lab doors. He gulped, a bit nervous about this whole thing. He gave his head a shake before knocking twice on the door, slightly curing his nervousness. He then ran a hand through his dark hair as he waited for someone to answer the door.

The door swung open. A string had been attached to the door knob. As soon as the door was open, a butterfree flew out and into the sky, never to be seen again.
The inside of the lab was brightly lit. A cheerful Professor Ash ran to the door. "It worked it worked!" He said. His hat fell off and he flicked it back up onto his head with his foot.
"Why hello there!" He said, seeing Travis. "Come in come in, do make yourself at home. What would you like, coffee, tea? I believe we have milkshakes too. Kacy, do we have milkshakes?"
A poor assistant blinked, surprised that she was being addressed. "No sir." She said quickly.
Professor Ash pouted. "Oh. Okay, well, no milkshakes. But do come in. You are here for your first pokemon, yes?"

Travis blinked in confusion as the Butterfree came flying out of the Lab. As he stepped into the lab, he was almost blinded, but his eyes quickly adjusted to the light.
"Uh, no thanks..." He said, addressing the Professor's drink question. He then nodded as the man asked his last one.
"Yeah, I'd like a pokemon." He said, looking at his feet. He was quite nervous now, not really the one to talk so much.

Professor Ash smiled. "Great! We have Natu, Poochyena and Makuhita, please take your pick!"
He spun around in a circle, his yellow cape fluttering stupidly. Three pokemon appeared. I never said that the professor hadn't trained to be a magician at one point in his life. The pokemon were, of course, Natu, Poochyena and Makuhita.

Travis blinked as the pokemon appeared, wondering how that had happened. He shook his head and examined the pokemon, wondering what to choose. He turned away from the Poochyena, for he didn't really like the looks of it. After a while, he also turned from the Makuhita, not really liking fighting pokemon all that much. He then eyed the Natu, a grin crossing his face.
"I'll take the Natu." he said, nodding happily.

Professor Ash grinned. "Wonderful! Natu are beautiful pokemon and will be a very good partner for you." Using a bizarre psychic ability (perhaps he's a psychic?) the professor made a pokeball appear. This he handed to Travis. Congratulations! Name: -your choice- Gender: -your choice- Level: 5 Attacks: Peck, Leer Nature: cheerful "Oh, you might want these, too." Professor Ash hands Travis a small bag containing five pokeballs, two potions, an antidote, a paralyze heal, an awakening, a burn heal, and 500P. "Good luck on your journey!" You may now go to Route One or explore the rest of Coral Town.

Travis smiled as he took the items, not really noticing that the pokeball appeared out of nowhere.
"Thanks." he said before walking out, his Natu sitting happily on his shoulder. The new trainer decided to explore the town, taking all of the sights. After a while, Travis set himself down onto a bench, wanting to get to know his new partner.
"Hiya Nate." he said, grinning.
<Hello!> the little bird said cheerfully, hopping up and down. Travis chuckled and set the Natu back onto his shoulder and continued exploring the town, wondering what he would find.

A mysterious man stood under an umbrella. "Psst! You there, new trainer kid," He said. He made a 'come here' gesture. "If you're going to start your journey I think I have something you'd be interested in... but make it quiet!"

Travis raised an eyebrow at the man, not sure if he should trust him. He slowly wandered over and nodded.
"Alright, what is it?" he said, dropping his voice to a low whisper. Nate stood stiffly and ruffled his feathers, not really liking the guy.

The strange old man smiled. "I have here something wonderful that I'm sure you would like. You are starting your adventure, yes?"
He pulled a small package out of a large box behind him. "A perfect trainer's starter kit! For just 200P it can be yours."
It was impossible to know what was in the package.

Travis was silent as he listened to the man's offer. He eyed the box carefully, wondering if he should take it. Nate was silent also, so Travis couldn't get anything from him. A voice in his mind was telling him not to do it, but curiosity got the better of him.
"Alright, you've got a deal." he said, stiffly reaching into his pocket and pulling out 200P. He hesitated for a moment before handing it to the man.

The man took the money, handing it to a strange meowth that walked up beside him and then scampered off. He then handed the box to Travis.
Congratulations! You got three lemonades and two oran berries. You made a great deal!
~You may now move onto Route One~

Travis peeked into the box, liking what he saw.
"Thanks." he said to the man before walking off. Nate churped happily from his trainer's shoulder as they walked off to Route 1.
