Quione ran from the Pokemon lab to her moms house. In her arms she held a Pikachu. When she got home her mom had already come out to see what Pokemon her daughter had gotten. Her mom had been a Pokemon trainer when she was younger and was proud to see that Quione was continuing the legacy. "Look LOOK!" Quione said out of breath. "A Pikachu. A perfect start to my collection of Psychic and Electric Pokemon." Her mom smiled down on her "I'm so very proud of you, and I'll miss you so much." Quione looked at her mom with a tear in her eye. "I know, I know. I'll miss you tons too, but don't worry I'll be in the neighborhood!" "I know you will." Her mom said. "So when are you starting your journey?" Her mom asked. "Well I figured I could start today. " Quione said excited. "Lets have some pizza first, then you can start your journey." Pizza was a celebration in her house. "Okay mom."
Her mom ordered the pizza while Quione walked into her moms pokemon collection room. All her moms Pokemon were standing around. "I'll miss you all so much." Quione said tears streaming down her face. Her moms Charizard came up to her. "Char." It said, and Quione knew it understood. Charizard had been her mom's first pokemon. It had started as a charmander, and had evolved into a charizard.
Finally the pizza was ready. "Quione!" Her mom called. Quione slowly made her way to the kitchen table. This would be the last day in who knows how long that she would be eating with her mom. Slowly she ate the cheese pizza. When she was finished her mom packed her some supper. "Don't forget you can get food at Pokemon centers on your journey." Her mom said. "I know mom." Quione said. "Goodbye."
Quione started on the path to the next city. She was a little lonely, but she had Pikachu, and that helped a lot. "So Pikachu, you ready to start our journey?"
"Chu!" Pikachu said.
"I knew you would be." Quione slowly walked down the path into the grass.

While walking Quione noticed the grass moving. Pikachu keyed in on it to.
"Pika, pika pi!"
"What is it Pikachu?" Quione asked.
She watched as whatever it was started coming out of the grass.

(Sorry for the wait. I've had a lot going on, and apparently so have others.)

Something started crawling out of the grass, alright. Nothing that impressive, though. Just a Caterpie. (Lv3 (M) Timid)

It crawls out of the grass, but freezes as soon as it spots Pikachu.

"Hi guy!" Quione said.
She knew what kind of pokemon it was. The professor said it was very common when she was learning about pokemon. It was a caterpie. Capable of evolving into a butterfree, which was a psychic pokemon. She wanted it bad.
Quione decided to lure it closer with some pokemon food. She dug in her backpack for a few minutes and pulled some out.
"It's okay guy." She said, pulling food out of the bag and laying it on the ground in front of her.
