Pokemon: Legacies
What is a dream?
The dictionary defines it as visionary creation of the imagination – something that seems so real to you, a desire, a lust that only you believe in. People will put you down for it, they will say that it's impossible or ridiculous. They would tell you to find something else to believe in. But it was your dream; your fantasy, your greatest desire. You wanted to grab that shimmering light, no matter how far away it was.
My dream…and dozens of others, I'm sure, no thanks to the propaganda of the Elite Four, were to be Pokemon Masters (although they never specified what a Pokemon Master really was). It's a dream that is wildly different for each person. Some may see it as capturing them all, while others say that just simply traveling the world with your Pokemon is enough. For me, for my dream, it is to vanquish the Elite Four. I want to travel the world, see places I would probably never see, and battle with the best of them.
That is my dream.
***
Professor Oak rubbed his chin as he listened to the proposal from Lance. He had known the man for quite some time – it was impossible for the two to not know each other, considering the man on the monitor was the head of the self-declared greatest Pokemon trainers in the whole Kanto region, whereas he was considered the most brilliant Pokemon researcher.
"There is a severe lack in quality of trainers, Professor. They don't have that love for Pokemon, that desire for greatness, that was so abundant in our youths. So many of them fight the Gym leaders, and most of them fail. Those that get to our doorsteps are so full of pride and arrogance, it is down right sickening. I'm tired of seeing the darker side of the Trainers. I yearn for the golden days."
"And how exactly will me giving Pokemon away – with your granted permission – guarantee a return to those days?"
"Because you know good people, Professor. It's a plain as that."
"I suppose I could find a few individuals with the dream you have so ceremoniously dramatized on TV who have the moral attitude you may be looking for."
Lance smiled. "I can hardly wait."

Pokemon
Give us your first Pokemon. It must be at its first evolution stage. It should be obvious enough that Legendary Pokemon is a big no-no. You can use Pokemon from any of the games, even though the RP is taking place in the Kanto continent.
