Route 2
Simmering with confidence, Harrison finally made his way past the outskirts of Viridian city. His heart was still beating extremely fast, he was finally out on his journey, finally! Harrison still held his pokeball tight in his hand, waiting at the first sight of a trainer or pokemon to release the mystery that was inside. He continued down the beaten path and traveled for what felt like days, which was realistically only about three hours. The tree's were getting much thicker now, and he knew that he was going to hit the intimidating Viridian Forest before too long. Right as he thought of all the poisonous and bug type pokemon lurking there, Harrison automatically groaned remembering that he hadn't bought any any potions.
He trudged on, in finally decided to take a bit of a rest, he had basically been going at some sort of a jog since he had departed. Sitting down under an impressive tree, Harrison scanned his Pokeball carefully, his curiosity quickly getting the better of him. He sat there for a moment, pressing that front button; watching the metal pokeball almost magically shrink and expand. After awhile, if just became too hard, "I gotta meet you." he said to the pokeball in a determined way, and tossed the ball lightly about two feet away from himself. The pokeball bounced twice, and with a great light and creature finally emerged from within it. Harrison's eyes basically bugged out of his head as he finally realized what time of pokemon it was. "No way!" he called out, looking into the closed, asleep eyes of the new pokemon before him. "It's an Abra! Awesome." he said, digging around in his pack for his Pokedex. He knew the pokemon held a good amount of phychic powers, and was more than enthralled to have such abilities in his very own pokemon.
Harrison popped open the Pokedex, and pointed it straight as his Abra. The light in the front automatically blinked and Abra's picture automatically appeared on the screen of the Pokedex. A computer animated, masculine voice suddenly began to spit out a short description. "Abra; Abra sleeps for eighteen hours a day. However, it can sense the presence of foes even while it is sleeping. In such a situation, this Pokémon immediately teleports to safety. Moveset at given level is Teleport and Hiddenpower." After the introduction, the Pokedex went blank and Harrison continued to stare it it with interested eyes, and slowly approached it. "Telekinesis, Mom and Dad are gonna freak when they hear this." he said with a menacing grin, phychic type Pokemon had always scared them. Harrison crouched in front of his Abra, and waved a hand infront of the closed eye's of the obviously snoozing pokemon. "Hey, wake up!" Harrison said, slightly dissapointed that the first time he met his pokemon, it was asleep. He stared at the Abra for a long time, and out of nowhere, it finally opened it's eyes! The creepy, red eye's of the Abra stared staight into the blue, competitive ones of Harrison.
"Abra Abb." he stated in a mystical way, stepping up and settling itself on it's two legs. It was much shorter than Harrison, but the creature was still very impressive.
Harrison watching in appreciation as the Pokemon got to it's feet, and nealed down get eye level of it. Harrison reached out to but his hand on the Abra's shoulder but the Pokemon quickly teleported behind him. "What it the-?" Harrison began to say, and quickly whirled around to see Abra once more, standing there, looking quite menacing himself. "I'm not one to prank with Abra, I'll get you back twice as worse." Harrison said with a joking tone in his voice, wondering if Abra understand what he was saying. It seemed so, as Abra nodded lazily, the ever menacing demeanor still strong in the Pokemon's aura. Harrison nodded with a confident grin on his face, "Alright good, we are gonna make some team." he said, picking up his pokeball and pointing it to Abra. "But we better get going now, we've got alot of ground to cover." he said with a gaze of determination. As he said that, the read beam shot from the Pokeball and engulfed Abra, evidently returning the pokemon back into it's ball.
Harrison beamed as he gathered his things and continued down the route, this was incredible! He was expected some common Rattata or Pidgey, but no! It was his very own Abra! A phychic type too, he couldn't wait to watch it develop his powers. As he continued down the route, day dreaming of one day challenging the elite four, another trainer completely popped out of nowhere.
It was a young boy, even younger than Harrison himself. The boy strutted up to Harrison in a relaxed manner, holding up a pokeball of his own. "What do you say, one on one battle right here?" he boy inquired, he was obviously trying to be a great pokemon trainer as well. Of course, Harrison couldn't object.
Harrison flashed the kid a crooked smile, and took out Abra's pokeball, raring to fight. "Alright then, you're gonna wish you hadn't thought!" His cocky, and confident manner had so quickly taken ahold of him that it was quite scary. It was his first ever battle, so the extra cockiness had to be used in order to make up for the nervousness that was absolutely surging through his veins. "Alright Abra, here we go!" he said throwing the pokeball to the midpoint of the two trainers. Abra appeared, and of course, he seemed to be asleep again. "Great." Harrison muttered, and watched the other trainer chose their Pokemon.
The young trainer frowned, he didn't like Harrison's cockiness, and decided he needed to shove it back in his face. "Yeah right!" he called at, and threw his pokeball into the middle as well. The ball burst open and Spearow soared out and flew high into the air. "Spearow! Use your peck attack, now!" The Spearow went into a nosedive and approached Harrison's poor Abra at very high speeds.
It seemed like Abra was going to hit it, the Spearow was SO close to it, but at the very last second Harrison fired up and yelled, "TELEPORT!!!" and at that instant, Abra teleported on the sport, just about ten feet to the left. As a result the Spearow crashed unpleasently with the ground and made a horrible screeching noice. "Yeah!!" Harrison called out with a fist pump, "Alright let's finish it! Hidden Power now!" Harrison yelled, doing everything he thought appropriate. He had watched pokemon battles so many times on TV, he thought he new exactly what he was doing. Abra jumped to it's feet with surprising agility, and summoned forth a peculiar ball of energy. The Abra shot it at Spearow and Harrison watched eagerly, hoping it would meet its target.
The other trainer looked out nervously and groaned as his spearow hit the ground. "Oh no!" he called out, yet still remaining in his place. "Hurry Spearow get up!" he said, as he watched Abra prepare a Hidden Power attack. At the very last minute, Spearow sprang to life and dodged the ball of enery and soared towards Abra, pecking him scarely between the eyes. "Take that!" the young trainer called out obnoxiously.
Harrison gasped, and watched as Abra fell back in recoil as he was hit by the Spearows attack. Abra hestitantly got back up and shook his head, as if trying to shake water out of his ears or something. Harrison smiled, appreciating how tough Abra was. "Alright Abra, prepare a Hidden Power, and when I say go, release it at Spearow."
Abra gave a movement of understanding and began to prepare the Hidden Power attack. The Spearow was still flying around in the air, and as the other trainer yelled out a command his Spearow wen't into another nosedive towards Abra. It was diving at extremespeeds now, but Harrison had him right where it wanted him. When the Spearow was just about ten feet from Abra, Harrison yelled, "GOO!!"""
As he said that, the raging Hidden Power attack flew from Abra's hands and went up through the air and crashed right into Spearow. There was a loud noice and an unpleasant screeching noice coming from the Spearow. It flew backwards about twenty feet and appeared to be completely knocked out.
"Oh no!" the other young trainer screeched, running up to his Spearow and returning to it's pokeball.
Harrison did a big fistpump, "Awesome!!" he yelled as he ran up to Abra, who was wide awake at the moment. "You were great, well done." Harrison said, as he summoned Abra back into the Pokeball. Harrison walked over to the other trainer, he wanted so badly to say something cocky like, 'i knew i was going to win.' But gladly, he decided not to. Harrison outstretched his hand and shook the other guys, "Good battle." he said with a nod, looking north deciding he needed to be moving on. "I guess I'll be seeing you around then." he said, and deparated ways.
The other trainer nodded as well, speechless at the loss. "Yeah same to you." he muttered, and headed back to Viridian to heal his fainted Spearow.
Harrison continued down the path for a good hour when something he wasn't expecting happened out of nowhere. "WEEEDDLLEE!!!" was what was heard, and Harrison turned just in time as a wild Weedle and sprung from a tree, aiming his stringer towards him. "A weedle!" Harrison trilled, it was his first wild pokemon that he could actually try and catch! "Alright Abra!" he called out, throwing the Pokemon in the direction of the Weedle. Abra come forth and was settled against a tree, once again... asleep. The Weedle inched around, and then loaded up another attack, this one aimed for Abra. "Weeeeedle!" it called out as it sprang towards Abra at a surprising speed. Harrison didn't have time to call out a command, but on Abra's own time, it teleported right next to Harrison, and to safety. The pokedex did say that they could feel danger coming while asleep... "Good one Abra!" Harrison said exciteded, as he watched the Weedle crash into the tree and slide down it writhing in pain, it was obviously disoriented now. "Alright Abra give it a quick Hiddenpower." Harrison said quietly, now wanting the Weedle to get scared and run off.
"Abraaaa." Abra said as it released that energy that was the Hidden Power attack, it rushed towards Weedle and engulfed it. "Weeeeeedle!" the small bug Pokemon cried out as it recoiled and writhed on the ground, unable to get up or move.
Harrison's pulse escalated, this was his chance to catch a pokemon, FINALLY! He dug his hand into his pokemon and took out a Pokeball, quickly pressing the button and watched it expand. "Ok Weedle you're mine!" he declared and threw the Pokeball at Weedle. The ball hit Weedle and with that curious red light, the Pokemon entered the Pokeball. The ball twitched one, twice, another time. Harrison was on edge, he wanted this pokemon so badly.
