Ah, the first chapter in my soon to be ongoing series of stories involving Krad Dashow, a Pokemon trainer from Viridian City who becomes the main focus of many of my other Pokemon OCs. This is the first story in the four (maybe five) story arc that is "The Ongoing Adventures of Krad Dashow", and it is indeed the first chapter as well. I hope you all like it as it took me a while to finish it in it's entirety.

Every year, thousands of youths across the regions begin their Pokémon journey to become Pokémon Trainers. Some do it for fun, others for glory; whatever the motivation, all start fairly the same way: a trip to the local Pokémon lab to receive a "starter" Pokémon, the first of many they will encounter, battle with, and catch in their journey. At the age of ten, Krad Dashow is ready to begin his Pokémon adventure, but unknown to him, is the many twists and turns his journey will take him.

These are his stories.
