Pokémon Black + Stardew Valley Crossover

Choosing My Starter

Sam's (POV)

"Sweety, wake up! Professor Juniper and your friends are on their way here." Mom cooed quietly while gently shaking the tired teenager awake.

"Mm, I'm up, I'm up." I yawn tiredly, sitting up while stretching her arms.

"What time is it?" I tiredly rubbed her eyes awake, getting up to start getting dressed.

"It's about seven in the morning, sweety," Mom responded.

"And what time are they coming?" As I finished getting dressed, I start to brush my hair.

"Professor Juniper will be coming here at around 8:30, and your friends right after." I nod.

After I get dressed, I head downstairs, eat breakfast, and head into the bathroom to brush my teeth and hair. After that, I put my beanie on, and wait in my room for the professor and my friends to arrive.

***

About an hour has passed, and the sound of the front door echoes from downstairs.

"Sweetheart, the professor's here!" That's strange, Professor Juniper wasn't supposed to be here for another half hour.

I was highly confused as to why she came here early, but she was here. I get off my bed and walk down the stairs to greet her, only to hear the front door close shut and the professor was nowhere to be seen.

"What happened, mom?" I look at her and see that she's holding a present.

"She said that she was going to meet you and your friends at Route 3." I must've looked confused because she then added.

"She told me that she wanted to see what you three picked as a surprise and that she wanted to personally teach how to catch a Pokémon."

"Oh, okay!" I nod my head in understanding.

After a while, Cheren soon came over and stood by my side as we waited for Bianca. Cheren said something about time, but I wasn't able to exactly catch what he said.

"I'm sorry for keeping you guys waiting!" Bianca soon comes running into the room, panting.

"It's alright, Bianca, we both know that you're not exactly good with time." I waved it off since it was normal for her to show up late.

I too am sometimes late, and because of that, Bianca and I help each other out to stay on time.

"Now come on, let's choose our Pokémon and meet up with Professor Juniper." We all head over to an empty desk, and I place the gift box on it.

Excitement and nervousness run through my veins as I slowly undo the bow. As soon as I take off the lid, I immediately grab the one in the middle, I don't know exactly what came over me, but what I do know is that we were going to become best of friends during this adventure.

"Alright, come on out!" Eagerly tossing the Pokémon ball up, excited to meet whoever was inside.

"Oshawott!" I look down to see a cute Oshawott, staring at me

"So, if that's Oshawott, then the one on the left is Snivy." Cheren grabs the Pokéball on the left.

"And Tepig is on the right!" Bianca gently grabs it and holds it close to her chest.

I let out my Oshawott, kneeling so that I can get a better look at him.

"Hmm, I'm gonna call you Sion! Sion the Oshawott!" I gently pets Sion's head with a smile.

"Oshawott?"

I outstretched my arms with a warm smile, and though Sion was a little bit hesitant at first, he wattled over to me with a big smile and into my open arms.
