Here we go! The first entry in my Pokemon Sun Diary! Enjoy! 😄 ❤️💛💚💙💜❤️💛💚💙💜❤️💛💚💙💜 Where do I even start with this?! So much cool stuff has happened! And my in-game self only JUST moved to Alola! 😦 First Impressions of Alola: Gorgeous! 💕👌 So I'm not quite sure if this was some kind of surprise that was made between In-Game Mum & Professor Kukui or just a present because I'm now in a place where I don't know anyone, but I'm to get my very own Pokemon! TOTALLY-NOT -COMPLAINING! Who WOULDN'T want a Pokemon?! 😄🎉 The Professor took me to Iki Town to meet the Kahuna of Melemele, the person who would give me my Pokemon, but he wasn't there. So the Professor told me to go look for him at the Mahalo Trail (B-But I DON'T know him! Let alone what he looks like) saying not to worry "He looks like a Kahuna" ......................Seriously?! 😑 So on what seemed like a stupid quest to ask someone that just moved to a whole new region, I had a chance encounter with a blonde hair girl wearing white, she looked really scared, like she was in trouble. When I asked what was wrong, that's when I saw the problem. An adorable, glittering blue & purple Pokemon on an old rickety bridge being constantly swooped by Spearows! It looked so terrified! Crying out for help! Before I knew it my body started moving towards the bridge, that cute little Pokemon was scared, I wanted to save it! I eventually got to the little guy & I protectively shielded it with my body. Those Spearow were really mean! They just kept swooping at us! I've once been swooped by a bird Pokemon & trust me, it's not fun at all! Even I was starting to get scared. Suddenly, light! Glittery blue light! It was coming from the Pokemon I was protecting! Then the next thing I knew, the Bridge completely broke underneath me! I screamed, I was falling, me and the little Pokemon, I cuddled it close to me still wanting to protect it, but I feared I might not be so lucky, I thought I was surely going to meet my maker there & then....but I saw it! A very fast moving bolt of lightning, shooting towards me! It grabbed me and flew me back to safe ground., where that blonde girl was. The bolt that saved me....was a Pokemon! I had never seen anything like it before, it's appearance is hard to describe, Orange plumage on it's head, black body with white markings, yellow appendages attached to its arms that look like they could be used to close together to make a shield & striking eyes. It didn't do much after that, it just.....stared at me, really carefully then suddenly making a cry & just jolted into the sky & flew away. Me & the girl just started at each other for a moment in silence, we weren't to sure what to say about what just happened, but the silence was broken by the cute Pokemon I was still holding in my arms. It cried happily as it floated to the blonde girl, she called it "Nebby". I didn't really understand what she was talking about, but she seemed very worried about it using its powers, saying the last time it used them, it couldn't move for 3 months (Poor little guy must not be very strong then). Nobby found a very shiny stone near by 💎 The girl gave it to me as thanks for saving the Pokemon, but she had a very strange request "Please don't tell anyone about Nebby, Please?!" I didn't really understand why, I asked why & all she said it was important that nobody found out, she said as she got Nebby to hide in her duffle bag, which brought up another good question in my head: WHY wasn't she returning the Pokemon into it's Pokeball?! But this girl seemed genuinely worried about the whole thing, as much as I wanted to ask what was going on with these two, I decided against pressing her for more information, so I agreed to keep Nebby a secret (I saw Nothing! I KNOW NOTHING!) After leaving the Mahalo Trail I ran back I into the Professor who was ecstatic that I found his assistant-Wait What?! It turned out that the blonde was Professor Kukui's assistant in his Pokemon Research, her name's Lillie (I'm kinda relieved that she turned out to be the Professor's assistant, I was about to ask her if she was the Kahuna! 😅) The Kahuna of Melemele finally turned up, a grey haired man named Hala, he asked if he just saw the Island Guardian flying by & Lillie explained what happened at the bridge, from Nebby being attacked, to me & the little guy being rescued by the Guardian! WAIT HOLD ON! What do they mean Island Guardian?! What was that Pokemon?!! Professor Kukui & Hala explained that the Pokemon that saved me & Nebby was a Pokemon called Tapu Koko, it's worshipped on Melemele as it's Island Guardian & despite it being a guardian of the people on the island, it's a very fickle Pokemon. So apparently it's very surprising that this Tapu Koko actually saved me & Nebby. Hala sees what happened to be some kind of sign that I'm to be a great Pokemon Trainer.......OH YEAH! I TOTALLY forgot that I was actually going to get a Pokemon! So Hala brought out 3 Pokemon, the grass type owl Pokemon Rowlet, the fire type cat Pokemon Litten & the water type sea lion Pokemon Popplio. All 3 were so cute! I found it so hard to pick from the 3 of them, but Hala explained that the choice of partner was a two way deal, both human AND Pokemon must agree to being partners. So as I found myself considering my very first Pokemon VERY carefully, I noticed that the Popplio was looking at me rather sweetly (While the Litten didn't look interested & the Rowlet looked indecisive). I couldn't explain it, but at that moment I chose to really get a good look at that Popplio, there was this, warm feeling, a sensation that it was meant to be....And I was right! The Popplio came right up to me! Letting me pick it up into my arms as it cries happily. It was decided! Popplio was my very first Pokemon! Everyone there was so happy for me, even Nebby who suddenly decided it didn't want to be in Lillie's bag, the Professor was so Kind to give me a special card/passport that proved I was a Pokemon Trainer & a Pokedex! YEAH! An ACTUAL Pokedex! Seriously! Is it Christmas already?! The Professor then asked me if I was going to nickname her (Yeah! My Pokemon's a Girl!) so I decided to name her: Serena. A sweet name for a sweet Pokemon huh? I couldn't believe everything that had happened today, it was all a bit much for me! I decided that it was probably best to have an early night.......then this kid, like a gust of wind, came out of nowhere, saw my Serena & challenged me to a Pokemon battle....HUH?! It turned out the Kahuna knew the boy, lightly lecturing the boy about challenging strangers without introducing himself first (Well manners are important) So this kid, quickly introduced himself as Hau & just as quickly challenged me again 😰 Hala apologised, explaining the boy was his Grandson, he too just got his first Pokemon & is being EXTRA HYPER (Ooooooohhh! Okay) I thought "Why not" & accepted the challenge. My first ACTUAL, REAL, LEGIT Pokemon Battle...........ended way too quickly! 😭 Hau's Pokemon was Litten, a fire type....all it took was two perfectly aimed Water Guns & that kitty didn't get back up for more. The strange thing is that kid was by no means upset by the outcome at all, in fact he was jumping up and down even more excitable than before (What does this kid eat?!!) I noticed something strange, my pocket was....Glowing?! Hala asked to see what was in my pocket & i took out the Shiny Stone Nebby gave me earlier, Hala looked surprised, he asked me where I got & I explained that me, Lillie & Nebby found it after Tapu Koko saved me. Hala looked actually shocked at our explanation, he said that what I was given is something not many people actually possess & for Tapu Koko to give me this stone must mean that the Island Guardian saw something in me & "Chose" me, he added "Perhaps you were brought here to Alola for a reason" Chosen? Me?! I was legitimately in awe, while I wasn't too sure about being chosen by an actual Island Guardian but those words did stick out to me as being true. Maybe I am meant to be here for a reason. Day 1 Entry - END To be Continued... ❤️💛💚💙💜❤️💛💚💙💜❤️💛💚💙💜 I'm SO SORRY this was so long! But I really hope you enjoyed reading this post.
