You find yourself at the Galar league's headquarters, staring up at the towering building from the base. You didn't get to visit wyndon often so you were pleased with this opportunity, even if it meant sacrificing your sanity with an incredibly long and boring meeting.
You had lived in Galar for all of your life, but going to Wyndon still excited you. You weren't used to the warm weather, snowy landscapes and chilly weather was what you had grown used to, seeing as you were the ice type gym leader's daughter. You had a great relationship with your mother, despite the occasional fight, but who didn't fight with their parents? Your older brother Gordie had moved away a few months prior to where you found yourself now, he decided that he wasn't quite fulfilled with being a gym leader, and that he wanted to travel the world with his Pokémon, leaving the gym completely to your mother, soon to be yours.
The gym challenge for this year had just ended last month, so you figured that now was as good of a time as any to start your plans of taking over the Circhester gym. Your mother loved the idea, and was looking for a predecessor anyways so that she could retire. The only issue she had was the type you wanted your gym to specialize in.
Your first ever Pokémon you had was a gift from your older brother. He had found it while he was exploring the Hammerlocke wild area for the first time, seeing as he had just turned 13 and was off on his very own adventure to become a Pokémon trainer. The Pokémon he had found was so small and alone, and he couldn't help but feel bad for it, so he carefully picked it up and kept it safe with him until he had returned home that night. As soon as he stepped in the door he rushed right to your room, with the Pokémon and an unused pokeball in hand.
He carefully opened your door, and you were already fast asleep. He gently shook you awake, this gift couldn't wait. You slowly and begrudgingly lifted your small head, and saw your big brother with a huge smile looking down at you, and something cupped in his hands.
"..Gordie?" You quietly whispered as your rubbed the sleep from your eyes, now sitting up in your bed
"Y/n! I have something special for you, do you wanna see it?" He asked, giddy as can be and excitement taking over his features, barely being able to contain himself. You had never had your own Pokémon, and he was so proud to be the person to give you your first.
"Something special?"
"Yeah!!" He was trying his best to be quiet, so your mother wouldn't wake up, but she had probably woken up the second he accidentally slammed the front door closed.
You yawned and sleepily responded "sure" to Gordie's prodding
He carefully lowered his hands down towards you, still cupping them, as to not let the presumably fragile contents fall out, and when his hands made their way down to your level, you saw a small Pokémon that you were unfamiliar with, you had really only been acquainted with ice types, only having known your mothers Pokémon, and Gordie could tell you were confused as to what Pokémon this was.
After a moment of him still grinning at your confused demeanor, he stated "It's a sewaddle! The Pokédex told me that it's a bug/grass type Pokémon, and that it makes its own clothes! Isn't that cool?" He was grinning from ear to ear, and expecting some sort of big response from you.
You were still barely awake, so all you could seem to react with was a small "hrmfm..", or some type of noise, it was barely legible, as you started to doze off again, he shook your shoulder with his free hand, still holding the small Pokémon in his other hand.
"It's for you, y/n, i wanted your first Pokémon to really be caught by you, and this seemed like a perfect start for you." He said extending the unused poke ball. He guided you how to use it, even though you were still half asleep. You were just a kid, did he expect you to not be tired that late?
