Post 1.1
Yuki was staring out of the window of the plane he was on heading towards the Orre region. He sighed, "I am so bored this is the longest flight I have ever been on!" This was true, albeit it was the first time Yuki had ever flown, but still this was taking forever! He just sighed again and pulled a notebook out of his black backpack, which he carried everywhere with him. He opened the notebook up to the first page, taking out a pencil he suddenly felt a lot better; he loved the feeling of filling up a new notebook. Yuki had the habit of carrying one with him at all times and whenever a thought or a plot for a story struck him he would start to write at blazing speed, he figured if he went to slowly the idea would leave him.

page 1, Adventure in the Orre Region, notebook 1
So far this is not the adventure I had thought it would be. Let me rephrase that, so far everything here sucks! I have been on this freakin plane for 2 hours now! The in-flight movie is, to say the least, the worst movie I have ever seen...I am not a movie critic for the "Johto Tribune" but seriously this movie should never have been made!....
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The pilot came over the loudspeaker, "we will be landing in the beautiful Phenac City in about 5 minutes, so please strap in and pack up any belongings." Yuki sighed as he put the notebook in his backpack, "well I guess this most wonderful and adventure filled flight is over," he muttered to himself. He sat down and strapped in, absently he rolled his pokeball necklace around in his hand, "soon, very soon, this pokeball will hold a real pokemon in it and I can finally start my journey!" He just shook his head and waited for the plane to land.
Yuki had heard that Phenac was a beautiful place but when he saw it he could hardly believe his eyes. At the middle of this large city stood a huge fountain that seemed to be the place to be in Phenac City. To the left of the fountain was a mart, where trainers went to buy pokeballs, potions, antidotes, etc..., and to the right of the fountain was the Pokemon Center. Yuki pulled the postcard he had been sent, it said he needed to go to the center first. He sighed and adjusted his backpack and headed towards the building.
Yuki entered the center and saw the usual PC sitting in the corner, but standing there as if waiting for someone was a man in a white lab coat. He walked over to Yuki and said, "I assume you are Yuki from Johto?" Yuki was a bit nervous and replied in an almost too loud voice, "yes I am." The man scoffed at him and calmly said, "if you wouldn't mind, could you use your inside voice?" Yuki laughed nervously at this, "anyways come along we have not got all day for small talk you know!" The man led Yuki to a flight of stairs heading down, "head straight down and have a seat." Yuki nodded and he headed down.
He was shocked to discover that it was not a basement, but it seemed to be a normal pokemon lab! He sat in one of the chairs near the middle of the room. He turned and looked at the person next to him, it was a girl about the same age as Yuki, she had golden-blonde hair and icy blue eyes. She was wearing a shirt that said, "stop "reading" my shirt already" and a skirt that was a little on the short side. "Do you have a staring problem or something?" She asked, jerking Yuki out of his trance, "I...wha....no...m....Yuki?" He replied, "so I see you are a artist with words, you almost paint a picture in my mind with your extensive vocabulary..." She said with a wink, "Oh and the names Cassie...Nice to meet you Yuki!" Yuki held out his hand and Cassie shook it. They talked for a little while about where they were from and why they were here and about other random things. It turns out Cassie came from the Johto Region as well, although she lived in New Bark Town, Yuki was from Azela Town. Their conversation was interrupted when a man in about his 20's walked in with an Espeon and Umbreon at his heels.
"Good Morning to you all, I hope the trip here was a very great experience for you." (at this Yuki let out a small unaudiable groan) He starts out. "My name is Tim, I am the one who started the league here and I will be the one to give you your pokemon." (same old newbie trainer thing,Yuki thought to himself) Tim stated to the beginning trainers as he waved somebody into the room. A young girl comes out with a cart of pokeballs and Tim introduces her as his assistant. Tim than begins to speak again, "As you all know Orre was the place where the shadow pokemon outbreak took place, but I promise you that it is all in the past thanks to me and another great trainer who is a gym leader here. Now you will each come up here and take a pokeball, they are all labeled so you will know what pokemon you are getting. I will also give you five pokeballs, pokedex, and a map. After receiving your pokemon you will head out through Phenac City and head to Pyrite Town where the first gym is located. I wish you all luck and just so you know, the person who beats all of the gym leaders and wins his/her way through the Orre League Tournament will face me to become the greatest trainer in Orre, and possibly the world. Now lets get this started!" Tim says as he waves you up to receive your pokemon.
Cassie walked to up to the cart and took one of the two pokeballs on it and threw it, a Torchic came out of with a cry of "Tor!!" She returned the pokemon to it's ball and went back to her seat. Yuki walked over to the cart and picked up his pokemon and let it out. A small green creature with a neacklace of beads around it's neck and a leaf coming out of it's head appeared, "Chiko!" Yuki just looked at it for a minute and then he bent down and said to the Chikorita, "hi I am Yuki, I am going to be your trainer from now on, of that's ok with you." The Chikorita nodded and started to do a little jig on the spot...Yuki could tell this was the start of something great....
