Raihan sat by a tree in the Wild Area listening to himself cry like a Sobble. He was the shortest kid in the neighborhood that many of the other kids picked on him.

'When I grow up...hic...I'll be taller than ANYONE...hic...' He told himself this like a vow.

Raihan was tired of the petty nicknames his three bullies gave him, and since he was short, it was hard to stand up for himself. He often took refuge in the Wild Area and hid behind an old Maple tree. There, he would take his tears and water the plants. No one would comfort him, and his parents always got mad when he came home with scruffs and bruises. Instead of lectures, he wanted someone to care for him and see him for who he was.

The wild was breezy that day, and it was getting warmer, but still cold to the young lad. There, she played her grass whistle, catching the little Raihan's attention. That day, the sun was shining like never before, and the little girl was surrounded by a few wild Pokémon, though one seems to be her own. She was sitting on a boulder slowly kicking one foot at a time. There, a Pokémon laid on her lap, one he had never seen before. It was a dark gray pup with sharp teeth, howling to the melody she was playing.

Her eyes were closed like she was in peace; the Pokémon surrounded her were a Tranpinch, an Eevee, a Pichu and a Butterfree. Some of them danced to the melody while the others simply laid beside the rock she was on. Raihan has never seen the girl before, but he wanted to know...if he could finally make a friend today. One that did not tarnish his clothing, or stole his toys, or picked on him for being small. He brushes his raven hair with his fingers. After wiping the tears and snot off his face, with leaves from a tree.

Raihan slowly walks up to the girl until he accidentally steps on a branch, causing it to snap and startle the wild Pokémon near the girl. Upon approaching her, he noticed her short Y/H hair and Y/E eyes looking at him. She then smiled at him and jumped off the boulder with her Pokémon. She extended her hand out and said hello to the young Raihan. Raihan, being shy, plays with his black sweater and looks away. It was his first time being confronted by someone who seems to be his age. This made him nervous, and he began to over think if it was a good idea to talk to her.

"Hello!" She smiled kindly to the young boy, and in return, Raihan could not help but smile.

"H-Hi...my name is Raihan. That music is pretty...how do you do it?"

"Oh! I just kinda learned it from an awesome Pokémon Trainer who used to teach me many things!"

"Oh, uh what's the name? I love Pokémon, and I am hoping to be a trainer someday!" Raihan shouts in excitement then covers in mouth blushing.

The girl in the white dress giggles then nods to Raihan.

"Her name is Cynthia. She's super strong for someone who just turned ten years old! Although I think Steven has a chance to beat her..." The girl trails off speaking her mind.

"Steven?"

"Oh, I'm sorry. I was born in the Hoenn region, so Steven was my...friend...haha!" The young girl replies blushing as she sticks her tongue out.

Raihan looks at his feet as his hands both break out in sweat. He clenches onto his sweater and shuts his eyes tight until he shouts, "WELL, I CAN BE YOUR FRIEND!" He bows low while extending his hand out to her. He looked up and saw tears upon the girl's face. He began to panic, not sure what to do, so he gave her a quick hug.

"I-I'm sorry! Did I say something wrong?" Raihan lets go off her after hugging her. The young girl rubs her face onto her arm then grins.

"No, I was just happy to make a friend! My name is Y/N. Raihan, right? How about Rai? That's super cute!" She says, causing Raihan to blush who then looks at the puppy Pokémon.
