There is a tale in the Gale Region of a boy named Picard. Picard lives in a small town called Sunset Town. In the Gale Region on the planet PokeGlobe, rival, sinister gangs engage in wars, spanning all over region. The gangs are Gang Blaze, who try to coax other novice Trainers to join their team for world domination. The other team is Gang Mecha, who steal Pokemon from Trainers, including Gang Blaze, for their own evil ways. Both teams are fighting over territory and special gemstones, enabling Pokemon to increase in strength. When the Pokemon hold onto the gemstones, they can become powerful and dangerous. Other effects are that the gemstones aren’t stable, making Pokemon powerful for only a short amount of time, and that the Pokemon turn an alternate color than they originally were. Picard is just a novice Trainer, and doesn’t own any Pokemon except for his father’s Arcanine. The Professor who lives in town, named Prof. Herb, gave Picard a Pokedex for any new allies that joined Picard’s team...
Chapter 1: The Appearance...
Picard is your average 16 year old. His father died when confronting Team Mecha when Picard was 4. The Pokemon that Picard’s father was using was his Arcanine. Now, his Arcanine lives with Picard and his mother.
Picard was outside, chopping firewood with Arcanine during dusk. "Dinner’s ready, Picard!" yelled his mother. "I’m coming mother!" replied Picard. The wind was howling and leaves were whirling in a whirlwind to the rusty orange sky. The leaves suddenly dropped. "That whirlwind wasn’t natural!" Picard said quietly to himself. He felt a felt a shiver run down his spine. Picard quickly spun around and found that a Pokemon was watching him. Arcanine started growling deeply at the shadows…
A foot with claws stepped out from the darkness of the bush. Then a part of a black, crescent moon was sticking out… "Abbbsol!" barked the Pokemon. Picard clicked open his Pokedex. It read: Absol, the Disaster Pokemon. It said that Absol appears only before disaster strikes. Picard has heard that an Absol is a very rare Pokemon that is not commonly found in the Gale Region. Picard is determined to capture it. "Arcanine, go!" "Arrrc!" Absol dug its feet into the ground, then it sprung into action with a Quick Attack. Hitting Arcanine, it reacted with an Extremespeed, and struck Absol with greater power. Absol laid on the ground, panting. "Pokeball, go!!" The Pokeball hit Absol, and opened, absorbing Absol. It hit the ground, and started to shake and flash. The flashing ended; Absol was obtained!
Chapter 2: Operation Rescue.
Picard was excited that he caught his first Pokemon so far. Remember, his family (his mother and himself) owns his father’s Arcanine, so originally, it isn’t Picard’s first Pokemon. Picard ran inside his comfy house and told his mother the news. Picard’s mother, by the way, is named Lyndis, and his father’s name is Will. Lyndis was stoked that Picard actually caught a Pokemon such as Absol. Picard lives in the valleys region of the Gale, where Sunset Town lies. Near the mountainous regions, Absol are scarce, but live freely in small numbers.
"Come out Absol!" said Picard, opening the Pokeball. "My, Picard, this Absol pretty healthy, despite that there is war going on the other side of the mountains. Picard, call Prof. Herb, and see if you can drop by his lab tomorrow morning. Try and see if this Absol is in good health. Or, you can visit our town’s Pokemon Center, and call Prof. Herb there. You know, the Center is only at least 1/5 of a mile from his lab." Stated Lyndis. "You don’t mind if I take Arcanine to accompany on the trip?" asked Picard. "Certainly, you may borrow Arcanine’s leash so you can ride him," replied his mother.
After Picard’s talk with his mother, they ate dinner and fed both Arcanine and Absol. He than slept the night in his room, Picard dreamt what it would be like if his father, Will, was still alive. He tossed and turned in his sleep. He couldn’t get his father out of his mind… It was morning soon. Picard woke up, got dressed, ate breakfast, and said "good-bye" to his mother. Picard checked up on Arcanine and Absol, who were staying in the barn overnight. He got them fed, and groomed them. "Absol, I want you to come with me, so you can get healed at the Pokemon Center." Asked Picard. "Sool!" barked Absol, nodding its head in reply. "Absol, return!" Absol went to its Pokeball.
Picard then got the leashes strapped to Arcanine on its harness. "Okay," Picard said to himself, "it’s just like riding a bicycle. Just calm down, Picard." Breathing deeply, Picard commanded Arcanine to move steadily. "Arcanine, I’m counting on you to take me downtown to the Pokemon Center. I know my mother and I ride you sometimes, but this is my first time riding alone." Arcanine had its eyes on Picard while listening to him and then focused on the road and sped off suddenly. Picard clenched the leash tightly. In a matter of minutes, Picard saw houses and was riding down Sunset Town’s Main Street. He noticed over the first couple of buildings, that there was a blue roof with a gigantic red Pokeball on top.
Picard made it to the Pokemon Center, and went inside, with Arcanine at his side. He walked up to the main desk, ringing the bell, waiting patiently for someone to come. He turned on the Video-Phone and dialed Prof. Herb’s lab’s phone number. The screen flickered, and the picture came on. "Hello, this is Prof. Herb’s Pokemon Lab. This is Prof. Herb speaking," said the professor.
"Hey, Prof. Herb, this is Picard! How are you doing?" answered Picard.
"Oh! Picard, it’s you! I’m fine. How have you been lately? Have you caught your first Pokemon yet?" Herb asked.
"You know that my family has an Arcanine as our Pokemon, right? I was outside getting firewood for the living room, when I felt like I was being watched. I turned around and an Absol appeared before me!" said Picard, confidently.
"AN ABSOL?! That Pokemon is especially hard to find where we live! You’re very lucky to find one. With all the battling going over the other side of the mountains, and all. I bet that Absol came into the valley, looking for food." Prof. Herb said, nodding his head with his eyes closed.
"Uh, yeah, but I caught it!"
"WHAT?! Geeze, that’s great, Picard! What do you plan on doing with it?"
