Prof. Oak's Lab

I sit down. "Well that weared me out." I put Charmander's Pokeball in the healing machine. A little song plays and I take him out. I sit down and wait for Ray.

I walk back in, face blank. "Whenever you guys are ready." I mumble.

I flip open my phone and call mom. I talk to her for a bit then hang up. "I'm ready."

I sit down and dig through my pack. Why does everything suddenly look like a Japanese television show? "Does anyone else feel the need to make random faces and noises?"

I nod. "Always." I make Charmander come out. "I think I'll name him Scorch." He grins. "Char!!" I laugh. "I thought so."

I command Squirtle to come out. "I'll name mine.... Phil." Squirtle makes an odd face. "Squirtle?" I pat his head, no idea what he's saying. "Yes, Phil. I do like nachos."

I roll my eyes. "Of course you do." Scorch runs up to Phil.

Phil does what looks like a squat thrust. "Squirtle! Squirtle squirtle, squirtle?"
I blink. "Okay. Go play now." I back up a tad.

Scorch blinks. Then he headbutts Phil. "Wow. That has to hurt."

I scoot over to Steve. "I wonder." I turn his head towards mine and headbutt him as hard as I can.
"Squirtle! Squir....tle." Phil passes out.

I grip my forehead. "It does. It really does." I pass out like Phil.

"Heh heh." I take off my glasses again and rub my eyes. This is why I like my other nickname, Ouch. Why? Because that freaking hurtsssss.

I wake up. "Damn that hurt." I stand up. "I'm ready." I grab my bag and Alex's ear. I return his Bulbasaur.

"Meh." I mumble and return Phil. I stand up and put my glasses back on. "First step?"

"We go to the first Gym in Pewter City."

I nod once. "Mkay."

"Alright." I begin to walk with her out the door, still dragging Alex by the ear.

I roll my eyes, trying not to laugh. Suddenly, I hear traveling music. "Seriously where is that---?"
(A loud speaker):
"AND THE YOUNG HEROES SET OFF on a journey that awaits many surprises! They walk, chins and hopes high, out of the arena fearlessly with only there Pokemon and wit. Will they survive next episode? Tune in for Episode 2: March of the Totodile!"

I blink. "......Okay?"

I look around. "What the f%^&?" I walk out with a puzzled look on my face.

I follow quickly.

"Yes it is Korra. And it also happens to be the day you get your first Pokemon." He leads her to the Pokeballs. "Choose wisely."

"Good choice. Remember to prepare. This will be a long journey. This Pokemon will be your companion." He grabs a Pokedex. "This is a Pokedex. Fill it full of info about Pokemon everywhere. Come back to me after you complete it."

"Well I better be heading to Viridian City now. So bye professor," Korra told him as she took the pokédex and left.
