As Dante walked towards the laboratory he noticed the professor's assistant, Tracy, tirelessly waving a sign for new trainers to start their journey. Well this was finally going to be the start of his own. All the traveling to come excited Dante. There is so much to experience out there in the world. It was a shame he didn't start until now. This would help him better understand life's mysteries maybe but no more rambling. Time to talk to the professor. Professor Oak greeted him as he walked inside.
"Ah, a new trainer. Come in, come in. Let's get you started." 
Dante responded with a hand shake.
"Thank you so much for this moment sir. It truly is an honor."
Oak laughed inside saying
"Oh it's a pleasure to meet you too. Here let's get our starters out... Hey Tracy can you help this new trainer?"
The professor's assistant walks up to Dante with package of six pokeballs, a pokedex, and even a potion. 
"You'll be needing this for your new journey. The pokeballs will help you catch Pokemon in the wild. The button one it is all you really need to press. The pokedex I just gave you is a wonderful device used to record and display all data collected on Pokemon. The potion is there for in case one of your Pokemon get hurt. You'll want to visit a pokecenter after that because these things are only one use."
Dante was awed by the gifts before Tracy continued.
"Oh and one last important thing." He brings up a plate of some sort holding three pokeballs marked Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle.
"Choose wisely!" He smiles kindly. 
After much thought and consideration Dante picked up the ball for Bulbasaur. He released it out of the ball and oh, what an adorable little thing it was. Dante confirmed to the assistant
"I think I'll choose Bulbasaur. I think we'll be best friends."
Tracy gleamed
"Well that's terrific! Good luck on your journey."
Dante parted the laboratory with his very first Pokemon, Bulbasaur, and went off towards the first gym from what he knew. Master trainers were able to go to places far and wide so it really was good to start here if he ever wanted to travel the world and experience more. He made a similar route upwards through route 1 and was met with the stare of a vibrant trainer. 
"Hey you!" Dante heard "I saw you walking out of that lab you can't trick me. Let's battle!"
Well it was one way to start out. Dante agreed.
"Alright, I'll take you on."
It was the first time he really felt pumped up. The only other times he felt like this was when watching some battles at Mt. Pyre (albeit a bit mad from the grave desecration) and from rare occasions he got to see the gym battles at his home town. The boy sent out a rattatta and Dante sent out Bulbasaur. 
"Bucky use bite!" The rattatta speed and clamped down on poor Bulbasaur. Dante was freaking out. He never battled before. When in doubt...
"Hurry Bulbasaur, shake him off and use tackle." The flailing vegeplant manages to get rattatta off it and slammed it's body into it with a running tackle. Turns out that the rattatta wasn't too strong and fainted.
"Ah Bucky no, return!" The rattatta was returned to a pokeball in the boy's hand. "We'll make it next time buddy." He turned to Dante "Awesoem battle, but don't think you some just yet. After enough training I'll be the best poke one trainer in Kanto, no, the world!" He runs off to what Dante would guess to be a pokecenter. 
"Good job Bulbasaur, it's bad you got bite but I think this will fix you up." Dante applied a potion to the hurt Pokemon. It stunted a bit but it got better fast. Dante thought he should name it but he couldn't find one. Nature already gave it a perfect name or so his I creative mind thought. The rest of his journey to Pewter city has been fairly quiet like on the way to Pallet. At last he found the entrance to the town.
