The Child of Mew

Chapter 6

My name is Konoha Bulbasaur; my Trainer is Ash Ketchum, who is the Child of Mew. I was once abandoned by another human once before and ended up in the village with Melody. Allow me to tell you my story of the incident that happened seven years ago.

When I was born, I hatched from an egg, all Pokemon are hatched from an egg. When I came into the world as a little mon Bulbasaur, the first thing I saw was a strange place filled with metal gizmos I knew nothing about, but was fascinated none-the-less. Beside me there were two other Pokemon, one was a blue turtle Pokemon who called himself Squirtle and the other was an orange lizard like Pokemon that had a constant fire burning on its tail that had me worried every time I see it, his name is Charmander.

There was a middle aged man by the name of Oak, the humans called him Professor Oak. Oak took care of us, he fed all three of us each day and went outside in the biggest yard I've ever seen to play and practice our fighting moves. All three of us only knew two each.

Squirtle only knew: Tackle and Tail Whip. Charmander knew: Scratch and Leer. I only knew: Tackle and Growl.

Back then, I didn't have a nickname, I was just called by my species like everyone else here.

"Hey Bulbasaur! You wanna play Charmander's new game?" Squirtle asked me with eagerness.

Like the little mon that I was, I was excited and couldn't wait to see what's this new game Charmander came up with.

"Yeah! Yeah! What are we playing?" I asked excitedly.

"I don't know, Charmander wouldn't tell me until we go see him, come on!"

Squirtle and I hurried over to Charmander who was waiting for us near the Oran Berry Tree. Charmander smiled and waved over to us.

"Squirtle, I'm glad you brought Bulbasaur, now we can all play. This is a game I saw the human mons play called Tag." Charmander explained.

"How do we play?" I asked curiously.

"From what I've seen; someone has a disease and if that person touches another the disease spreads. Everyone has to keep running away until everyone is tagged... at least, that's how I think they play."

"Sounds like fun, let's try it." Squirtle bounced up and down.

"Who's going to have the disease?" I asked.

"Squirtle and I decided that... it should be YOU!" Charmander said suddenly before running away laughing along with Squirtle.

I watched the two run off laughing as I grumbled and wondered who to go after first.

"Why do I have to be the one with the disease?" I mumbled annoyed before deciding to go after Squirtle since the turtle didn't have a flame on his tail that could burn me on contact.

Bulbasaur are naturally slow, but Squirtle are even slower, so it wasn't very hard for me to catch up to him and used Tackle on his shell.

"Ha! Gotcha!"

"You didn't have to Tackle so hard Bulbasaur." Squirtle mumbled.

"Quit complaining and help me find Charmander." I said impatiently.

We see Charmander trying to hide in the bushes, but the flame on his tail was easily exposed. Both of us went after him.

The fire lizard ran from us. Charmander was the fastest out of the three of us, so it was a challenge to catch that speedy reptile.

While the two of us slower mons were running after the speedy mon, Oak suddenly called for us.

"Bulbasaur! Charmander! Squirtle! It's time to come in!" he called in his own language. Since growing up in his lab, we were able to understand him, but some wild Pokemon usually have a hard time understanding human speech unless the human itself can talk to us Pokemon.
