A Pokémon Short Story I've always wanted to be with a Trainer, and learn what it was like to be on a Journey. That was every Pokémon's purpose in life. Every day, I'd train hard until I would gain the courage to go out and show a Trainer my strength. That was my purpose. But what purpose does a Pokémon like me have when I'm not as special as the rest?

"The human is a social being." said Aristotelis the Greek. If that's true, then what am I? I gave up all my humanity ever since my father left me. Happiness was replaced by anger, joy by sadness. Everything was the same. Everything was dark. After all these years, I earned strenght most of my peers would dream of. But is it worth it? Why did you curse me like that mother? My name is Jordan Hajime... This is my story! __________________________________________________________________________________ Jordan Hajime applied to become professor Bambo'o's research assistant.
