Thomas visits Alola where he finds Professor Kukui and begins his journey, what Pokemon will he meet?


After the eventful fucking Infernape had given me, he eventually pulled out leaving a feeling of emptiness inside me. Infernape, sighed before he spoke "that.. that was incredible. You are incredible!" Infernape shouted before I shakily stood up, stretching slightly, from being up against a tree and down on the ground. I blushed hearing his words before looking around.

"Is there anywhere I can clean myself?" I asked Infernape who nodded his head, "yes, a nearby stream, largely unused by most Pokemon." At that Infernape decided to carry me there, "you don't have to carry me you know" I spoke as Infernape wrapped his hands around my legs and hoisted me up bridal style. Infernape shrugged his shoulders, "I was rather rough, you looked unsteady and this is my way of repaying you." I pondered his words, wondering what he was repaying me for, the training seemed like the obvious answer, however, he could have been thanking me for the fuck he just gave me. That really wouldn't surprise me.

"So, what are you repaying me for, the training that me and Lucario gave you, or the fuck we just had together?" Infernape looked down at me as he walked closer to the stream, "both" he said simply grinning at the embarrassed look on my face.

That was the end of the conversation before Infernape gently lowered me to the ground and watched as I slowly stepped into the stream and began cleaning my body of any evidence of our encounter. Not that would prevent the Pokemon from knowing what happened, they knew everything about these types of events.

"So, tomorrow you're headed to Alola huh?" Infernape spoke as I finished up with my cleaning. I stepped out of the stream as Infernape began heating my body to dry me off which was a pleasant experience. "Yeah, Alola, from what I've heard Alola is made up off four islands, well one other island belongs to the Aether Foundation, which is dedicated to protecting and saving Pokemon."

Infernape sighed, when I looked over at him he seemed disappointed, maybe even upset as well. "Is something the matter Infernape?" I asked as we began walking back to Professor Oak's laboratory. Infernape walked silently, pondering what he wanted to say, "this may sound stupid..." However, I immediately turned to face Infernape with a shocked expression. "You won't sound stupid, whatever's wrong we can work to fix it."

At that Infernape slightly smiled before speaking again, "I can't help but wonder, will you return after visiting Alola?" At seeing my shocked look once again he spoke before I could express my shock. "Don't get me wrong, I know you will come back, it's just, when your actual trainer travels from region to region, he may only come back briefly to drop off new Pokemon that he caught. I know that your not my trainer nor are any of Ash's Pokemon yours, it's just how we feel."

I stopped in my tracks, looking down at the ground, hearing that Infernape had stopped as well, "Infernape, I had no idea that was what you all felt, when I spoke to Bulbasaur in the first few days of becoming Professor Oak's assistant, he mentioned that most of the Pokemon here hadn't travelled with Ash in a while, save for the Kalos team. However, I want to reassure you" I looked up staring Infernape who was wide eyed seeing my face, or eyes specifically which were shining with sadness. "I'm going to return when I'm done on my journey and when I do, I'll continue helping the Pokemon here grow stronger. It is my hope that you will all remain happy until then though."

At that Infernape lunged towards me wrapping me up in a tight hug, "I knew you wouldn't leave and I'm ashamed that I even believed that could even be a possibility." eventually Infernape released me and backflipped expressing his happiness. "I guess your feelings were only natural" I spoke silently, still upset and shocked that the Pokemon here felt in such a manner.

Our conversation was stopped when we reached the laboratory and I knew that I would have to begin packing for my trip to the Alola region. "Well, this is goodbye for now I guess" Infernape spoke but before I could reply, he grinned excitedly, "but we'll see each other again, I'll make sure the others know your coming back anyway." At that he darted off in the distance. My Pokemon were also at the laboratory likely waiting for me to return them to their Pokeballs.

"So, Tyranitar spoke, "did you have a good time?" I blushed lightly before nodding my head knowing that if I spoke all would come out would be a jumbled mess of words. "Well, for some time I'll need you all to return to your Pokeballs for now, while I head home and pack for the journey ahead." At that they all nodded, before Venusaur spoke up, "master Thomas?" I looked towards him wondering what he wanted to say, "I hope you'll bring along your camera, to continue your dream of photographing every Pokemon you can?" The others voiced their excitement promising to help me with that dream.

"Don't worry, I'll definitely bring my camera, after all, there will be so many Pokemon to see, I'm just so excited!" At that they all cheered and returned to their Pokeballs, before I said my goodbyes to Professor Oak and Tracey. "Thomas, I hope you'll get to see the wonderful sights of the Alola region, the seas their truly are a sight to behold." Professor Oak said remembering everything he had heard about the Alola region. "Don't worry Professor, I'll enjoy everything I can."

At that I left and returned home, rushing to my room to begin packing my bag filled with everything I would need, some Pokeballs would be handy in case some Pokemon wanted to be caught, my trusty camera would be essential as well.

Before I knew it it was suddenly getting rather late and so I headed to bed shouting goodnight to my mother. I blissfully dreamed off the many Pokemon that I would see in the Alola region.

Early the next morning I awoke and quickly got ready and headed downstairs to eat breakfast. I headed outside and got my Pokemon their breakfast as well, "come on out everybody" Venusaur, Pidgeot, Tyranitar, Aggron and Lucario. "Here's your breakfast everybody" as I handed them their bowls and they began eating in earnest. My mother stepped outside hearing the Pokemon eating with such vigour. "My, my, aren't they hungry, or perhaps they're eager to go on another journey with you." At that every Pokemon stopped and cheered excitedly, to my mother they obviously weren't speaking but thanks to the translator I understood their words. "Their definitely excited for the journey."

At that I headed inside and quickly grabbed the plane ticket and had a few hours to get to the airport and would soon be in the Alola region. A quick check and I was certain I hadn't forgotten anything and shouted my goodbyes to my mother before heading on the journey to Vermilion City.

Upon arrival, I handed my ticket to the front desk and soon enough boarded the plane headed towards the Alola region.

While on the plan, I had been given a leaflet on the Alola region and learned quite a bit about some of the Pokemon that lived there and and even some brief information on the phenomena of ultra beasts. The Alola region was made up off four different islands, with different habitats and ecosystems. Melemele Island would be where the plane would land. Then I would visit Akala Island, followed by Ula'ula Island, followed finally by Poni Island. Perhaps I may even visit the Aether Foundation, if time would allow it.

The flight took quite a few hours, so during that time, I attempted to pass the time by looking out of the window, even seeing a few brief glimpses of water Pokemon swimming in the oceans below.

Eventually, the plane arrived at Melemele Island where I soon noticed many differences from other regions I had visited, the Alola region was much hotter, though the heat wasn't unbearable either. The people even had their own greetings here, that being "alola." Upon arrival, I immediately headed towards a Pokemon centre and on the way there I saw a wide variety of Pokemon, some familiar and some completely unknown.

I immediately released my team and gave them some food and water to ensure they were well after the flight, they seemed in good spirits and the long journey didn't seem to bother them like it did me.

I was pleasantly surprised to see a Persian strolling the streets, however, as I had learned earlier, many Pokemon here in Alola had regional forms, due to the climate off the Alola region. Perhaps the most well-known Alola form could be considered Exeggutor. Anyway, back to the Persian, it was darker in comparison to the Kantonian Persian. Similarly, it was a Dark type instead of a Normal type. I couldn't resist not snapping a quick photograph off the Alolan variant.

I decided the best move would be from the Pokemon centre, heading towards the Pokemon laboratory owned by Professor Kukui would be a smart move, from there I would be able to ascertain where best to head for a good journey.

A short walk later and I saw the laboratory, however, in comparison to Professor Oak's laboratory, the lab that Kukui ran seemed rather small, but looks could be deceiving. I knocked on the door and a short while later, Kukui answered the door and upon looking down and recognising me, he welcomed me with a "Alola, Thomas!" I smiled extending the greeting back to him. "So how was your journey to Alola?" Kukui asked me, "the flight was long, but I wasn't disappointed to be visiting a region I'd never been too before."

Kukui laughed understanding that excitement since he was a trainer when he was young and that excitement was only natural and a driving factor for many journey's. "So what are your plans while your staying in Alola? I trust you have a lot you plan on doing right?" Kukui asked me and I nodded my head while pointing my hand towards the camera around my neck.

"My whole journey, I've been wanting to photograph every Pokemon, so, I'll make a start on photographing as many Alolan Pokemon as I can." Kukui nodded his head in understanding, before he told me briefly about the islands of the Alola. His comments of the islands and the Pokemon that inhabited them, were so intriguing that we ended up completely losing track off time.

For the evening, I released my team and gave them some food and water, to ensure they would be well prepared for the exciting journey we would have. They all seemed rather excited for the journey to the point that they seemed incapable of sleep much like myself.

I decided to put off exploration until tomorrow.to rest from the long plane flight.
