This was it.
I held the Poké Ball tightly in my right hand, holding my MP3 player in my left. I lifted my Poké Ball to my face and licked the cold metal, smiling. "You're mine now, Koaleaf.", I whispered softly. "All mine."

I leaned over the side of the boat, the breeze from the sea chilling my face and blowing a sweet wrapper from my pocket. It wasn't far to Tangelo Island. I had left North Mandarin Island this morning, as always, landed at Valencia Island to collect my new Pokémon, Koaleaf- as the online trainer guides had said it was powerful and cute (it certainly lived up to the second one)- and was now heading to Tangelo Island to officially start my life as a Pokémon Trainer. I turned on my MP3 player and chose the song My Sweet Heart by Komatsu Rika. I was in high spirits, something that didn't happen often. I don't know why, but I'm typically just... depressed. For no reason.

The boat landed at the beach and I stepped off, thanking the captain quickly before turning to look for a place to stay. After all, if I was going to search for Pokémon, I'd need to stay here. As for school, I'd do it on the internet; I had my laptop with me.

As I approached a building claiming to be "Tangelo Trainers' Hostel", I heard a voice calling me. "Hey, are you a new Trainer?" I turned and saw a boy of about my age, with shoulder-length light blue hair and dark brown eyes, dressed in a black jacket and trousers, and holding a Poké Ball, approaching me. "I'm Kaoru. And I'm burning to try out this Pokémon's attacks on a newbie." Without another word, he threw his Poké Ball high into the air.

Rival Name: Kaoru Akasaka

OOC: Once you've got a link to your profile added (either through Preferences > Update Profile or by adding one to your signature), I'll be happy to.

A brightly glowing beam shot out of the Pokeball, and quickly shaped itself into the form of a tiny Pokémon. As the glow dimmed, you found yourself face to face with... something a lot less impressive than you were expecting. It was a small fire Pokémon, with exaggerated ears, fists, and a tail to boot. The fire-type jumped high into the air to show off its powerful legs, almost jumping up as high as its trainer was tall. It landed and turned to face your Koaleaf. You could see that it was just as eager to battle as its trainer.

"Ready?" you heard the boy call.

OOC: I've got my link up. : ) One question; what is my Koaleaf's max HP?

"Are you sure of that... Kaoru? You look pretty new yourself." I smiled to hide my doubts. A Grass-type vs. a Fire-type? This was going to be hard, but not impossible, if what they said on the internet and in the books was true.

I flipped Koaleaf's Poké Ball into the air; it opened halfway up in a burst of red light, and my Koaleaf fell out, landing on the street on its back with a dull "fwumph" noise. I just remembered not to facepalm. "Don't worry, Koaleaf-kun; just get up and Scratch Kaoru's Pokémon!"

[5] :koaleaf:

Koaleaf unsheathed the claws on both hands and threw itself through the air at Kaoru's Pokémon.

Both Pokémon scratched at each other, doing about the same damage to each other, each.

Koaleaf landed on the ground and slid back with its momentum. It hadn't been scratched too badly, I saw; it wasn't bleeding. Strong enough to attack again.
"Scratch again, Koaleaf.", I commanded.

[5] :koaleaf: 21/26

Koaleaf spun through the air, this time with the claws on his feet out too, aiming to embed all of them in Kaoru's Pokémon.

He came... all over the person that changed my user title.

More scratches, but it seems that Koaleaf did more than usual.

I could see now that I had an advantage, and needed to press it. However, so did Koaleaf. Without me even giving the command, it threw itself at its enemy and began tearing at it with its claws.

The next to last round of attacks were exchanged, with Koaleaf far ahead of the opposition.
Time's like a big ball of timey-wimey, wibbly-wobbly...stuff.

Almost there, I thought. Kaoru's Pokémon was limping now, and bleeding slightly from its neck. It didn't have much energy left. Koaleaf would easily knock it out, providing Kaoru didn't have any strange tricks up his sleeve.
"Koaleaf?", I called. Koaleaf readied itself for one more Scratch attack, then sprang.

Practically flying forwards, Koaleaf tore its claws through Pyroo one more, taking the fire-type down for the count. Koaleaf gains 100% experience and grows to level 6! With a dejected look on his face, the boy handed you a bill worth 1000P (they have $1000 bills in Pokémon?!) and stalked off.

You can make one last post here if you'd like, and then I'll close this topic and you can start one in the next route. Alternatively, you can just make your next post in the new route, and I'll lock this topic once I see it.

OOC: Thanks! Oh, and I thought P were like yen, so they come in 1000s? *geeky*

I smiled. My first victory. Once this boy had gone, I would lapse into woot-ing madly. I pressed the button on my Poké Ball and Koaleaf disappeared inside it. Which was just as well; he had decided wooting madly couldn't wait, and had been creating a right din.

I slipped the P1000 into my pocket and, without another word to Kaoru, turned to walk inside the hostel. I noticed that a large crowd had built up around where we had battled, and was only now dispersing. Pokémon battles must be a popular sport, I thought as I walked inside. Soon, I had booked myself a room for one night. In the morning, I would move on to the next route. I had five Poké Balls; I could catch five Pokémon on the route and train them for my next enemy. It could be anyone, I realized, as I lay on the bed filling in a school form on my laptop. Anyone could approach me in the street and battle me. And anyone could beat me. I had to train hard.

Sending off a quick e-mail to my mum ("Reached Tangelo Island safely. I'm staying overnight here then moving on. ~Rei-chan"), I released Koaleaf from his Poké Ball and placed him in the bed to recover his HP, then pulled off the pillow, put it on the floor and attempted to sleep there. Next morning would be amazing, I was sure.
