" See ya later, Altaria! Next time we meet, I'll have a whole bunch of friends you can meet!" Arin waved to his mother's Altaria as it flew off. The bird gave him a ride here, which took at least twelve hours. He had fallen asleep on the soft, cloud-like feathers of the bird and had been awoken by the pokemon when they arrived. The sun was only just beginning to rise. But Arin, despite just being woken up, wasn't tired. Not when he was going to get his very own Pokemon!
Arin asked around a little to find the lab atop a hill. It was small, not exactly the giant, sci-fi place of research he had imagined. But oh well, he wasn't one to judge. It seemed like most of the area around it was dedicated to the wild pokemon instead. How nice! He was running up to the lab when a small, white and red penguin pokemon carrying a sack hopped out of the grass and threw something at the trainer. He ducked, dodging the projectile just in time, but caught the thrown object. When he looked back down, still in a state of shock, the Delibird had already skipped back into the fields. Huh. But the Pokemon had thrown him what seemed to be a present, with a little note saying "Merry Christmas" on it. Ooooooh, free stuff! He'd have to try to find something for the Delibird later. Maybe some berries? Opening it up, the soon-to-be trainer found a pair of rollerblades, protective goggles, and four Timer Balls. Wow, he had just taken his first few steps here and he was already finding cool things! Presents aside, the trainer slipped on the skates and put the goggles around his neck after slipping the Timer Balls into his bag to skate up to the laboratory.

Skidding to a stop in front of the door, Arin poked his head inside. Huh. Seemed empty. Understandable, since it was still really early. Strange machinery decorated the place, and papers were here and there. he was tempted to push a big red button on a large machine, but resisted the urge. Big red buttons almost always activated the self destruct- in movies, at least. Well, this was the place, right...? " Hellooooo? Is anyone hoooome? Is this where people get their first starter pokemon? Geez, did that guy give me the wrong directions...?"

Notes: I hope this suffices! I've had a little bit of writer's block, but I managed to pump out a quick starter thread.
