I looked myself at the mirror, and smiled. I, Sara the Pokemon trainer, was finally old and mature enough to set myself on a Pokemon journey. My pulse and heart pounded as I raced downstairs for breakfast.

After eating, my mother said to make sure to come back home as soon as I got a Pokemon from Prof. Elm's lab. When I went out and went closer to the building, I noticed a mysterious red-haired boy looking through the window. I couldn't help myself but draw my attention towards him and walked to him.

"Hello, um, may I ask why you're standing outside? Don't you want to get your starter Pokemon?" I asked politely. He turned his head around and when he saw me, he looked disgusted.

"It's none of your business, now, go away," he suddenly grabbed me forcefully and pushed me back. I nearly fell to the ground, and I quickly got up, fuming. He snickered at me, and I could see those dark, cold eyes. I was angry.

"Someone has an an attitude problem here," I snapped. I was about to confront him but tried to shake it off. I glared at him though he didn't notice and then went straight inside Prof. Elm's laboratory. He greeted me warmly and cheerfully.

"Hello! You must be Sara, right?" He smiled.

† Joey, Ichimé †

-Age 13-
Being very outgoing, Joey often brings attention to himself whenever possible and in his family is referred to as "the clown."
Although often outgoing and rambunctious, be can be very unpredictable and sometimes go silent for long periods of time.
He is very childish.

When he was young he was very much involved with his cousin's and sister's pokemon when they were on their own pokemon journeys. Making him excellent at determining a pokemon's thoughts and needs.
Living in Pallet Town, he often begged his parents to take him to go and watch his cousin's contests and battles when he was little; because he was to young to have his own pokemon to take with him, and too young to go himself. Until then he usually snuck out to play around at Professor Oak's. He often spoke to his sister on her journey this way, and became close with the pokemon at the lab. When his parents found out about his break from home they shook their heads and said he might as well go on his own journey considering he had so much energy.
At age 9 his cousin sent him her very own pokemon for him to start his journey out with, that pokemon was Spyro, a very mild tempered Charmeleon. Soon after several failed attempts at trying to catch his first pokemon he ran into and successfully caught Kyuubi, a smart yet shy Volpix. Then, Mew sent him Dragonite, who was very lax. When he had finally reached Viridian City he had received an egg, only this time from his big Sister. Which contained yet another new pokemon, Sora, a very mischievous Riolu.
Soon after his departure toward Viridian, his parents received word that his Sister would be landing in the town of New Bark just West from his home Town of Pallet. When he had heard of this he turned back just after receiving the news and started for Johto. Working hard he somehow found himself facing new pokemon, in which he caught Kimané, a super-smart pokemon a bit on the fast side. After several casualties he finally made in into Johto, where he somehow finds himself standing now in the very windy town of New Bark with his new pokemon standing by his side.


Charmeleon lv. 20
Nickname: Spyro
Having a gentle nature did not make him at all a pansy-core, as was Mew's playful nickname for him before she sent him to Joey as a Charmander. Spyro is often described as the quiet "good kid."
He was Joey's first pokemon.


Volpix lv. 24
Nickname: Kyuubi
When She first met Joey she was often shy and not very reliable, but with a whole ton of one-on-one training she has become stronger and has learned to stick up for herself more. She is very outgoing and often playful. She was Joey's first caught Pokemon.


Dragonite lv. 56
Nickname: Ritsu
As a Young Dratini, she lived a quiet life with a trainer named Mew, and became extremely attached to her trainer, eventually evolving into a strong leveled Dragonite. But then Mew decided she'd have a more exciting life with a new trainer and was eventually traded to Mew's younger cousin, Joey, in Johto, who is still not very well experienced. She likes to sleep and is not very loyal to Joey yet due to his inexperience.


Riolu lv. 14
Nickname: Sora
Yet another transfer from Joey's family, although it was his big sister, Toby, in whom entrusted him with Sora's egg. But Sora, being stubborn, is not at all fond with his trainer even when he was born, and is repeatedly speaking to his trainer and becomes very distracting during battles.


Pupitar lv. 19
Nickname: Kimané
Being smart and a quick thinker was always her best quality when she was a larvitar, which was Joey's first problem when he first met her. Eventually, Joey gained Kimané's trust and they've become close along their journey. Joey often tries to carry her around in his backpack.
