Chapter 1 - Arrival

     The bustling city of Castelia is one of many cities of Unova. It was also the centre of economical and trading city of the region, as ships and ferries docked at the docking area. On the streets, there were businessman and woman walking towards their office buildings and other places. It was always crowded with people, moving from places to places.A certain brunette was on a cruise ship, on her way to Castelia City, to start her new adventure. She had two flaps like hair on both side of the head and her name was May. She wore a blue bandanna, a blue dress to go with her bandanna and a pair of black bikes shorts. She wore a green fanny pack around her waist, which held her pokemons, potions and berries that she always brings with her. But unlike the other regions she travelled, she was planning to capture a few Pokemons around the Unova region. She brought along her Blaziken, Glaceon and Venusaur on her trip, as they would provide some company and protection against wild Pokemons.Once the ship had docked at one of the port that connected to the city, May got off of the ship, along with the other people before breathing in the smell of sea. "Finally, we're here. I never have thought it would take me 3 days to get here from Hoenn," May said as she rummage through her bag. She found her Glaceon's poke ball before tossing it out. A flash of red light emerged before her Glaceon appeared in front of her."Morning Glaceon," May said, patting Glaceon's head as she stretched from sleeping in the poke ball. They then got off of the docking area before they enter the city. "Wow, this is a huge city," May exclaimed out of amazement. There were office buildings, restaurants and a few hotels in the city. May spotted a Pokemon Center that was located in one of the corner of the building and figured she should get a map of the region.She was amazed at how big the city was and wondered, could Hoenn have a bustling city as well. She just shook the idea out of her head as it couldn't happen. She was now outside of the Pokemon Center and was amazed at how tall the building was. She couldn't help but feel a little dizzy looking at how tall it was."Amazing, isn't it," a voice spoke next to her. She yelped as she jumped a bit from the voice. She noticed that the voice was belong to man, who had brunette hair like her, and wore a green shirt, a red scarf and a pair of red and green strip pants with a butterfly belt buckle to secure them. "Sorry to scare you like that, miss...""My name is May," May replied as the man bow to her. She blinked a couple of times before the man spoke. "Well, welcome to the bustling city of Castelia City, the center of economics and trades of Unova. And my name is Burgh, the Gym Leader of this city," Burgh said, introducing himself along the line before taking his hand out to shake."Oh, nice to meet you," May said with her sweet smile as she shook hands with Burgh. "Wait, you're a Gym Leader?" May finally caught what Burgh said as he nodded. "I specialised in Bug types, but I have no match against you," Burgh replied."What makes you said that?" May asked, as she raised an eyebrow."Well, you have a really strong looking Glaceon here, and it's rare to see an Eevee to evolve into a Glaceon around here," Burgh explained as he kneeled down beside May's Glaceon before patting her head, which she purred."Oh, well, you see. I'm here for Pokemon Contest," May replied as she rub the back of her head. Burgh look at her with a blink before standing back up."Pokemon Contest?" he asked."Yeah, I came here to take part in Pokemon Contest," May said as Brugh just crossed hus arms while shaking his head."Sorry to tell you this, but here in Unova, there is no Pokemon Contest. The mayor has cancel the contest a few months ago because of the lack of participants," Burgh explained. May just stared at him, as she was dumbfounded about the news. She came to Unova to take part in Pokemon Contest, but to her horror, there was no contest at all."Nooo!" May exclaimed as she cried out of sadness. She had wasted 3 days and money just to get to Unova to learn that they didn't hold any contest. She wanted to win the ribbons and the Grand Festival in Unova, but her dreams was crushed."Hey, don't worry, I'm sure there are other things you could find some fun here," Burgh said, patting May's back as she squat down, drawing some circles on the ground as she was in depressed mood. Burgh just sweatdropped about the girl's reaction as he tried to find a way to make May happy again. "There's an amusement park in Nimbasa City," Burgh told her, but she didn't budge at all.Burgh just sighed as Glaceon just sat beside May. "C'mon, let's head into the Pokemon Center," Burgh suggested as May reluctant to stand up. Burgh help May to the center, with Glaceon following close behind. Once they entered, they headed towards the table before the gym leader helped May on one of the seats. She just slumped onto the table as her Glaceon sat on the chair beside her.Burgh just sighed, not knowing what to do now as he rub the temples of his nose. "Okay, now what," he said softly before taking a seat opposite of May. He had a feeling that she would be taking part in something else, which might be an interesting idea.Meanwhile, in another part of the region, a young man was heading his way to the next city, which was Accumula Town. He wore a white hat with green band on his head, a red shirt with a black lining in the middle that starts at the shoulders, a pair of running shoes he got from his dad on his birthday and a pair of black jeans. Beside him was his trusty Swampert, who had been with his since he began his journey."We're almost there, Swampert. Just need to stop by at the PokeMart for equipment," the boy said as they headed towards the building with a blue roof. Once they entered, they were greeted with cold air from the air conditioning. He sighed at the feeling of cold air on his skin as he headed to one of the aisle. Along the aisle was full of trainers equipment, ranging from potions to mails. The boy looked through the aisle before taking a couple of ropes and poke balls before heading towards the counter to pay for it."That will be 45 Poke dollars," the cashier told him as he paid the amount. He then took the paid items before placing them into his bag before leaving the mart. His Swampert was not willing to leave the air conditioned mart, which Brendan just sighed as he dragged his Swampert out of the mart.Once they were outside, the boy took out a map of Unova before reading it. "Okay, the town we need to head is Nuvema Town. I need to send these files of the Hoenn climate to Prof. Juniper," the boy informed his Pokemon as he fold the map back before placing it into his bag.They then set off to the next town for their assignment while he tried to look for a rare Pokemon that was just found recently. He wanted to be the first to catch the rare Pokemon since there was no recorded data of it nor had anyone been able to catch it. Though he heard there were sightings of the Pokemon back in Hoenn."C'mon Swampert, let's go!" he yelled as they ran down the route that would take them to the next town. Right after he left, a brunette girl with a ponytail, saw him running off wondering what he was yelling about. She just shrug it off before she head down the other route that will take her to Striaton City.Back in Castelia City Pokemon Center, May had just gotten over her ordeal of not being able to participate in any of the Contest since there wasn't any. She was now patting her Glaceon, which was purring, while talking to Burgh. "So, you're a Gym Leader's daughter from Hoenn?" Burgh asked as he sat opposite of her."Yeah, though I only participate in contest," May said as she rub the back of her head with her free hand. She wasn't expecting this kind of bad news, but since she was here, she would might as well travel the region, and possibly, challenge the Gym Leaders of the region."Oh, I see. Well, you could try something else like challenging the Gym Leaders here, since you're a Gym Leader's daughter," Burgh suggested. May pondered on the suggestion. Sure she's the Gym Leader, Norman, daughter, but challenging the Gyms in Unova when she never have took part before was another story. She had never tried battling for badges before, let alone all the tension of the battle. But she wanted to travel the region and explore all of the cities and towns."Okay, I will try it out," May stated as Burgh just smile at her."Great. But first of, do you want to get any of the starter Pokemons of this region?" Brugh asked. May thought for a minute before nodding. Sure she had three strong Pokemons with her, but since she wanted to explore the region, she thought why not caught some Pokemons that will help her out. "Alright!" Burgh clasp his hands together before getting up. "You need to head to Nuvema Town that is North of here. I wish I could send you there, but I don't have any flying type Pokemon," Burgh said nervously as May sighed."It's alright, Burgh. But I get to try out these new running shows my dad gave it to me," May said as she got off of her seat. Glaceon was a little sad that May stop scratching her head as she enjoyed it. She quickly followed May as they both left the Pokemon Center."Okay, Glaceon. Get ready to run with me as I can't wait to try out these running shoes," May stated as she kneel down to reach the button beside the shoe to switch it on. She got up before nodding to her Pokemon."Let's go!" with that, she and Glaceon ran down the streets of the city in high speed as air underneath the shoes gave her more speed to move. It was like gliding on air as she wasn't even breathing really hard.In another region called Almia, a Pokemon Ranger base was stationed there as two members were busy monitoring and doing their business. One of the Top Ranger was on a mission to clear the Psyducks that was blocking the way, again, in Shinnoh. "Sigh, I wonder how many times did that happen," the Operator said as he leaned back against the chair."Well, at least we still have the 2nd Top Ranger here," the Mechanic stated as he was playing his game console."Now that you mention, where is she?" the Operator asked as he scanned the base. There were only 2 of them as it was eerily quiet and the only sound was coming from the Mechanic's game console and the sound that was coming from the monitors. "Wait, sounds? That's the alarm!" the Operator thought before he began typing in some keys into the keyboard while he scanned through the monitors."What's the matter?" the mechanic asked as he turn his game console off, taking interest of what was going on."I don't know, but something's wrong here," he stated as he continued typing in the keyboard. Then he noticed something, the region of Unova was getting some strange signals. The Operator then began typing more words into the keyboard before realising what the signal was about."Get the Top Ranger here, now!" he exclaimed as the Mechanic nodded before leaving his seat. "This is not good, not good at all," he stated, as he was worried about what was going to happen.On the monitor, the signal had actually intercepted a secret call, a call belonging to a secret organization. He didn't know why the signal had managed to intercept it, but it did. And what he got wasn't good. 'We have found a new leader,' the message read out.
