Currently, I'm sitting on a plane next to the window. My brother and sister sat in the seats next to me. The plane was heading to Kanto from Unova; which is where I live. I'm flying to kanto for my birthday it's the morning of October 9th. this has been a overnight flight and we should get to kanto at noon today. Also tomorrow (my birthday) is when the next pokelathon starts. Most people think of that name as the contest at johto where theres like the jumping course, speed course and the stamina course, but for me The pokelathon is where exactly one thousand of trainers go and they get a starter in kanto must beat all eight gym badges in the kanto region, then go two the pokemon league and they have a competition knocking out the trainers until only one trainer is left that on trainer gains 500 points and then they do the same thing in the johto region then hoenn then sinnoh and finally unova soon kalos will join but thats next time. But each pokelathon you must get far enough in the leagues. For example lets say they are in hoenn they only let the top 300 go through to sinnoh so if you dont get to the top 300 your out of the pokelathon and your points convert to money you get at the end of the tournament, plus they help you in the next round. Anyways the way it goes is from 1000 to 700 trainers from kanto. In johto it goes from 700 to 500, and like i said in hoenn only 300 go past. in sinnoh it goes from 300 to 100, and finally in unova It goes from 100 to 32. And finally after the unova league you go back to kanto for the final showdown where first round it goes from 32 to 16 then 16 to 8. 8 to 4. 4 to 2. 2 to 1 and that 1 is the overall winner. I wish i could join but you must be ten years old to join and sign up early. So sadly only my brother and sister my brother jackson 14 years old. My sister Samantha 16 years old. I shook my head. Enough day dreaming. I told myself. I open the window next to me and actually see land. Literally about two seconds after i see the land the pilot calls in telling us we are about to land. I sit back because this flight has been so long and i cant wait to just get to bed. I lean forward and ask my mom who is sitting exactly one seat in front of me to hand me tepig's pokeball. Tepig was my first pokemon you see like i said i live in unova but i actually live in nuvema town in unova too. Thats where profesor juiniper's research lab is. She saw how much i had bonded with a certain tepig she had because i went there everyday to play with him. Eventually she gave me the tepig. And thats the story of tepig my first pokemon. My mom reached into her bag grabbed tepig's pokeball and handed it to me. I let tepig out and told him we were about to land tepig smiled as he sat on my lap, but once again right after I say that we hit the ground. And we hit the ground hard. The airplane shook around but still eventually came to a stop. Slowly the people boarded off the plane and eventually we were able to leave. My dad picked us up from the airport and we drove to a beach house we recently rented and i straight away went to bed and tepig who was just as tired slept at my feet. I was ready for tomorrow.
