A blue-eyed boy quickly ran his fingers through his dirty blond hair before pulling on his shoes and dashing out the door with his mother calling after him. He barely heard her since he was a third of the way up the dirt road that lead to professor Cycad’s laboratory. A slight smile showed on his otherwise serious face, today was his tenth birthday and he would get his first Pokémon and begin his training to be a Pokémon master. When he reached the lab professor Cycad was there to welcome him.

“Welcome Jet,” said professor Cycad, “follow me and I’ll show you the Pokémon you have to choose from.” Jet followed the professor into the lab where three young Pokémon waited.

“These are the three Pokémon beginning trainers in the Kanto region have to choose from. They are Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle.” said professor Cycad pointing to each in turn. The Bulbasaur and Squirtle paid no attention to Jet, but Charmander looked up at Jet with large, curious eyes.

Jet picked him up and the two of them gazed at each other, until Charmander sneezed. A small flame spurted from Charmander’s mouth and left a small black spot on Jet’s new jacket.

“I apologize,” said professor Cycad, “that Charmander seems to catch every little cold that comes by.” Jet just smiled.

“I’ll call you Scorch.” he said to the small Charmander. Scorch blinked dazedly in return. Jet set Scorch down and returned him to his pokeball. He shrunk the ball and placed it on his belt.

“Now Jet, remember that Pokémon are more than just pets or wild animals. They are our friends and fellow beings.”

“I know Professor, Scorch and I will be best buds. I gotta go.”

“Okay then, good luck on your journey.”

“Thanks Professor.” Jet said as he grabbed the five extra pokeballs Professor Cycad had laid out for him and ran back to his house.

Back at his house, Jet began packing things he would need on his journey. Scorch watched the boy with fascination. Jet’s mother came in while he was packing.

“Are you planning on leaving so soon?” she asked. Jet nodded. Scorch looked inquisitively up at her from where he sat on Jet’s bed.

“Well, don’t forget to eat something before you leave dear. You rushed off before eating your breakfast.

“Okay, mom.” Said Jet, not really hearing what she said. She smiled at her son as he finished packing and put on his cap and coat. She then turned her smile to Scorch.

“Take care of him for me, okay?” she said

“Scorch, return.” Said Jet picking up the Pokémon’s ball. A red beam of light shot out and enveloped the Pokémon as it vanished into the pokeball. Jet then grabbed his belongings and ran out of the house.

“Jet, you need to…eat something.” Said his mother as her son disappeared down the road. She shook her head. That boy was a bundle of energy when he was excited.

“Just like his father.” She murmured.
