Hello! My name is Idealia, but my daddy calls me Storm. I am 3 and in kindergarden and i live in between Iccirus City and Anville Town inside of a hidden cave! Isn't that cool?! I go to the school at the foot of the mountain i live on. Its fun there! And tomorrow you bring your daddy to school so he can meet all the kids and the kids can meet him. I can't wait!

~The Next Day~

I run into the yard and gasp with delight. The whole playground is filled with kids and their dads! I join the crowd, but my daddy isn't here yet. All my friends come over to where i am and we talk about how excited we are. Soon, missus teacher calls for silence, and says we are going to introduce our dads to the whole class. One by one, she calls kids up, they show their dads, and they move back down into the crowd. Finally, its my turn! I run up onto stage and giggle with glee. "Hiya everybody! I want to show you my daddy!" Suddenly, a black shadow was cast over the yard. A storm cloud was passing overhead, crackling with electricity. Everyone back up, but i stayed where i was and smiled. Slowly, a dark figure made it way down to the playground. With a BANG, the figure landed onto the ground behind me. All the kids were clutching to their dads and each other, terrified. When the clouds and dust cleared, standing right behind me was Zekrom, huge in size and power. I giggled and hugged what i could of my daddy's big leg, but everyone was slowly backing away from me. I saw them backing away. "What's wrong?" I asked. "Don't you like my daddy?" Everyone just stared. I called to my friends and reached out towards them, but they shrunk away. Tears forming in my eyes, i ran towards my daddy, and he picked me up and cradled me close. Then, after casting an eye out to the crowd, shaking before us, he flew off, back to our home, far away from those mean people who i once called my friends.

"Dad come on! I'm twelve, fully educated, and i have Sunshine to protect me!" I argue with my dad, Reshiriam, just to leave the cave and live out with other people by myself. "Truthton, Arceus forbid!" I gasped. My father usually calls me Blaze, but now that he calls me by my real name and calls out a curse involving Arceus all and mighty, i was taken aback. We went back and forth for a long time until finally my dad said, "Alright. Blaze, i will let you leave but you must wear this and never take it off or let it out of your sight." Then, he powered his tail so it turned red, and blew fire out towards me. The fire was ineffective, but i could tell dad was focusing on something else. Once he was finished with the huge blast of fire, a long necklace with a single, small charm in the shape of the light stone was fitted around my neck, reaching down to right under my chest in length. I gasped, for its beauty enthralled me. I packed a few pokeballs in my bag, along with some potions and revives. Sunshine, my espeon, jumped onto my shoulder, and after a few quick goodbyes, i ran out the house. Cold air blasted my face, and i shuddered while rubbing my arms. My jacket was not of much protection, despite its thickness. I knew it was only because of my home, a lava tube inside a hidden inactive volcano off the coast of Undella bay, with rocks bordering it. It was all nice and toasty on the inside so my dad was more comfortable. The minute i had set foot out, the entrance quickly vanished, concealing my father within. I smiled and stared at the necklace draping around my neck, gawking at its presence. Thats when i knew that my journey was going to be a great one.

~a few days later~

Exhausted, i walked over to the entrance of the pokemon laboratory in Nuevema Town. I had traveled for several days non-stop to get to Professor Juniper's lab to choose my starter pokemon. Sunshine had collapsed in exhaustion earlier, so put her into my shoulderbag, since she HATED her pokeball dearly. I only knew of the professor because of chat around the shops i eavesdropped on, and the stories i had heard when i was smaller, the ones my father had often told me. And also my map that i had gotten apon turning ten. I walked inside, panting, to be met by a large entryway with a small desk at the center. I walked up to the desk, and behind it stood a nice lady who helped me sort out my applications for starting my journey. When i told her my age, twelve, she looked at me with surprise, and said that usually children come in at the age of ten. I was a little confused about how my height had not given away my age, but i was around the size of an overgrown ten year old, i guess. I've never had much direct contact with other humans in my entire life. Then again, i wasn't too much of a human, either. Being created from the element of fire by Reshiriam didn't sound very "human-ish" to me. After filling in my information, the woman told me i was going to have to wait a moment for the professor to come. After about a few minutes, a shorter woman wearing a white tank-top, a green mid-thigh tight skirt, a lab coat, and light brown hair put up in a twisty-ish style walked out. "Hi", she said. "I'm Professor Juniper! Who are you?" "Hi, i'm Truthton, but you can call me Blaze. That is, i-if you want to." I had never met a person face-to-face, so i didn't know what to do. Luckily, it wasn't so awkward as i feared. "How may i help you Blaze?" She smiled at me in a friendly way, so i felt better. "I'm here to start my journey Professor." I replied a bit shamefully, remembering the normal age of beginning trainers. She went right on, thankfully, and acted as if it was okay for an twelve year old to be doing what a ten year olds do every day. "Alright! Here are some pokeballs, your pokedex, and an xtrasiver. Now, there are three pokemon to choose from, and you can only take one to be your partner." Then she showed me an orange pig with black skin near the rump but not its hind legs. Its tail was a black curly spring till the end, and on its tip was a red ball. Its face had a natural black mask of skin on it, all except for its snout, which was as orange as the rest of its body. "This one is Tepig." She stated. I ran Tepig over with my pokedex, and stored the info inside the small technology. "Next up is Snivy" she released a small serpent with legs and arms with unusual patterns of a light peachy color and green. Its tail was a maple leaf, and it had big brown eyes that you could get lost in. The might of been red, but the lighting was somewhat dim in the massive room. The sun was setting, however. I stored Snivy's information into the pokedex as well, then the professor wrapped things up. "Last but not least is Oshawott" she announced, and released the adorable creature. It was white with two dark blue small horns jutting out of the top sides of its head, and wore a light blue cover of skin that frilled up somewhat like the lolling waves of a beach where it ended near to its face. A small scallop sat in the middle of the tiny ocean, and the small one seemed proud of its possession. Its face had small freckles on its cute little cheeks and its nose was so big but petit at the same time. Its eyes were the most adorable thing of the small guy's face, so cute but serious at the same time. I scanned it for info, then pocketed my pokedex and listened to Professor Juniper talk about the abilities and stuff like that. I was educated by my father on this for many years, so i knew it, but i was polite and listened anyway. "So, which pokemon will you choose?" She asked after a while. Tepig jumped up and said loudly "Come on! Choose me! Choose me!" Snivy showed no interest in me whatsoever, and Oshawott stared at me with those adorable eyes and a goofy smile on his face. "Me! Me me me! Pleeeeease?" I took in my breath at his cuteness, and said, "Professor Juniper, Oshawott is the most adorable little thing ever! I choose him. Isn't he so adorable?" She looked at me with the smile and agreed. Oshawott's stomach growled. "I'm hungry... Can i have an oran berry?" He pleaded. I fell for it all and dug into my bag for one. "There you go." Professor Juniper stared for a second, then gasped and told me to stay put. I stared after her as she scuttled down the halls to the back room, which i assumed to be her research laboratory itself. Then Tepig stopped jumping and lied down, losing all interest in me, joining Snivy. "Geez. Always gotta act all adorable, then you're never picked...." He said in a sighing voice. "Oh cheer up Tepig, i bet the next person in here will choose you immediately! It was so hard to choose between you and Oshawott! You have no idea how adorable you were!" I assured him. He jumped up, surprised at what i said. "You-you can understand me?" He cried. "Yes, is that normal? Is that okay?" I panicked for a second. Was the Professer going to the back room to do something to me? "It's not what what usually happens, but it is amazing!" Tepig gawked at me for a few seconds, but then Oshawott bumped in. "So didya choose me? Huh? Huh?" He was all cheery, and was bouncing up and down. "Yes Oshawott. I chose you." "Yay!" He sent a burst of water out at me, and it hit me square in the forehead. "Ow! Ow! Ow!" I said in the most silent way possible. It hurt since i was a fire type Reshiriam human, and it hurt badly. "Are you ok?" Oshawott stared at me with his big eyes. "Was it too forceful?" "Its ok Oshawott" i said in relief as Tepig helped me out by using ember on my drenched spot. He was quite smart. "I'm just...." I stopped short, and sighed. I couldn't tell. Just as the pokemon were about to ask what i was going to say, i heard a door squeak open. I followed the sound to see Professor Juniper emerge from her lab. "Hi Blaze! So you heard Oshawott talk?" She said it with a hope clinging in her tone that i did not trust. She also had this helmet thing in her hands. "What? Uhm... No..." I denied the comment and left with Oshawott by my side and Sunshine still in my shoulderbag.
