"Mwaawwwrrrrrr!"
I heard a Pokémon's voice shout. Ugghh...Just give me 5 more minutes Meowth. After another minute of shouting, I lazily opened my eyes and sat up even lazier. I stretched a bit, making the tiredness go away. "Good morning, Meowth." I got out of bed and went downstairs.

Hi there. I'm Avery, Avery Astral. I just came here from the Kanto region all the way to the Alola region. Alola's pretty good, though I haven't stepped outside yet. I just know that moving here is going to start up brand new opportunities, especially helping me achieve my dreams of becoming the Champion now that I can finally get a Pokémon. Also, I have a feeling that there's girl just waiting to be met, that will cherish and accept me. Girl. Yeah, you heard right.

I like girls. I found this out before I moved out. I've told my mom about it, and she didn't seem to mind at all. She treated me like I had never even told her, which was just what I wanted. However, when I told my friends, they couldn't keep it to themselves and turned their back on me. They spread it to every girl in my school, and in response they all stayed away from me, even the female Pokémon did too! I was insulted and ridiculed after that, to the point I didn't even feel like going. When, my mom told me we were moving, I didn't really care. But when I was told I would be receiving my first Pokémon, I was excited and I felt my long-lost enthusiasm return.
Eh, I don't really think my attraction to girls much, but I can't help but think the perfect girl is somewhere, waiting for me..

When I reached downstairs, I saw my mom come back in. Probably taking in the amazing sun and talking to herself again. Oh God. "You were out like a light, weren't you? You ought to be full of energy by now! So, Avery, are you pumped to meet some Alolan Pokémon?" she asked.

"Am I?! Of course! It's gonna be awesome!" I replied excitedly.

Mom nodded in agreement "That's right! I want to hurry and meet some too! We're living in the Alola region now! The beautiful islands everyone wants to visit! I'm sure the Pokémon living here must be friendly, right?" I was about to reply when we heard the sound of our doorbell ringing. Who could that be?

"Was that the doorbell? That's got to be Professor Kukui. Why don't you let him in, Avery?" she asked. I went to go open the when a man I assumed was Kukui walked in.

"Hey there, Avery! The name's Kukui. Good to meet you, cousin! You gotta be tired after that long trip all the way out here to Alola! You feelin' any jet lag? We sure are a long way from Kanto out here in Alola. It's still daytime out here, yeah!" As much as I wanted to say, 'Professor, we know that.' I kept quiet, the last thing I want is my Mom having a rant at me for 'being rude' on such and exciting day.

"Professor Kukui! Yes, we just arrived yesterday." said my mom.

"Hey there, mom! I just let myself in. Oh, and call me Kukui, would you? Welcome to Alola!" Now he's calling my mom 'Mom' and me 'cousin'. Am I even his cousin? I don't know.

"Of course. I still remember seeing you battle the Indigo Gym Leaders back in Kanto all those years ago, you know? I've been in love with Alolan Pokémon ever since, so I finally decided to move here myself!"

The Professor laughed at this, for some reason "Ha! I was supposed to be visiting there to research Kanto Pokémon moves and all. I thought I knew a thing or two about battling, but those Kanto Gym Leaders proved me wrong! Hey now, Avery! Let's get moving to the next town over, cousin! Time for you to meet the Island Kahuna and get yourself a Pokémon, yeah!"

"Kahuna?" I asked. Wow, this region is a lot different to Kanto than I thought.

Kukui nodded "Sure, sure. The Kahunas are crazy-strong Pokémon Trainers in Alola, cousin! They're unbeatable for folks like you and me. And the Kahuna here is always happy to give any kid who wants to have an adventure their first Pokémon, yeah!"

"They'll simply give my girl a Pokémon? Those kahunas are really worth meeting! You should hurry and get ready, Avery!" I looked at my clothes and I instantly wanted to change. Why did I even pick these, a greyish-yellow shirt with pink flowers, and green shorts. Ugh! I need blue. A lot of it.

"Ooh, and I bet you got a stylin' hat that matches mine!" said Kukui.

I went upstairs to get changed, and get that 'stylin hat'. A few minutes passed, and I came out, wearing my new clothes for Alola. An azure beach dress with a blue square donning an eye in the centre. I think it was from Geometry Jump? Geometry Hop? Geometry Dash? I really don't remember. I also wore blue shoes with white bumps on top of them, I had a white hat with a azure Pokémon emblem on it. And I won't forget my cool blue goggles. Ahh, that's a lot better. I went downstairs again, feeling a whole lot better.

My mom smiled "You look ready for anything now. Have a good time out there! I'll be sure to have everything cleaned up and put away by the time you come back with your new Pokémon! I promise!" she said, giving my an excited kiss on the cheek.

"Woo, that's a stylin' hat, cousin! Now let's get going to Iki Town. Time for you to get a real nice Pokémon from the island Kahuna, oh yeah!" he cheered. Me and Kukui left to Iki Town, my mom smiled and waved. I happily waved back.

At last, I was finally going to get my first Pokémon!
