Growth: A Pokemon Crystal Nuzlocke

In life, people grow. They make decisions, some good and some bad. They learn from these decisions and call them experiences. From those experiences people grow wiser, and the wiser you are the better decisions you make to create more good experiences than bad. But some people lack experiences, and when that is the case by a certain age, something is wrong. That means that something must be done about it. This is the tale of a young girl who needs more of these experiences.

"Zzz..."

Meet Penny, the young girl now deemed our protaganist of this tale.

"Hm? Wha? You woke me up... What time is it?" 

"..."

"9:00pm!? Oh man, I oversplept!" Now really meet Penny, our protaganist who seems to be nocturnal for reasons unknown.

"Wait, who just..." Penny looked around the room in confusion, not seeing another person in the room with her. Then who told her the time and woke her up?

Suddenly, an older man with whitish hair, wearing a white lab coat and holding a Pokeball in his right hand came walking into the room. Who was this geezer?

"Hello! Sorry to keep you waiting! Welcome to the world of Pokemon!" The man began what seemed to be an introduction to something. Penny watched with utter bewilderment. She didn't even know this guy; why was he talking to her!?

"My name is Oak," Oak? Who has a name like Oak? "People call me the Pokemon Professor." Okay then... A Pokemon Professor named Oak suddenly in her room. Still, why?

"This world is inhabited by creatures that we call Pokemon," Well no duh; she lived here! Of course she would know what a Pokemon was! Wait, was he going to show her a Pokemon? Yes, a Wooper! She loved Woopers; they were so cute! "People and Pokemon live together by supporting each other. Some people play with Pokemon, some battle with them." He then returned the cute Water type Pokemon.

"But we don't know everything about Pokemon yet. There are still many mysteries to solve," Prof. Oak continued, looking right at Penny. "That's why I study Pokemon every day. Now, what did you say your name was?" Well then, topic change time.

"Penny. My name is Penny Lesedi," Said girl replied, a little hesitant with her answer. She still was weary of this guy, even if he did proclaim to be a professor.

"Penny, are you ready?" Wait, ready for what, exactly? What was this guy talking about? "Your very own Pokemon story is about to unfold. You'll face fun times and tough challenges. A world of dreams and adventures with Pokemon awaits! Let's go!" Oh, so apparently he's talking about her starting a journey... Did she have a choice?

Penny was going to ask, but the Professor was already taking his leave. "I'll be seeing you later!" He said and then was gone.

"..." Peny blinked a few times, staring at the door. "Well that just happened. Might as well go see if Mom knows anything about that guy." She told herself and rolled out of bed, landing on the ground with a loud thud. "Oww..." She groaned and stood up, making her way to the door that lead down the stairs.

Thus begins the story of Penny and the challenge she had no idea about.
