Description The next day when the sun arose, Kiki and Trouble awoke. They slowly stretched, Kiki slide down out of the tree and Trouble turned on his physic powers and began to float above the ground. Kiki stretched when she hit the ground, and walked off towards the town, Trouble following with out a word. It did not take long before they got to the Pokemart, which was just opening up for the day. The attendant looked down at Kiki, then up at Trouble, "You two must be from Oak's lab. Wait here, I'll get the package for you." She said, before she disappeared back inside the store.

The attendant came back a few moments later, a small box in her hands. She handed it to Kiki, who gladly accepted it, "there ya go. Have a nice day you to." The attendant said with a smile, as Kiki and Trouble walked away. About half way out of the town, Trouble poked Kiki, and used his physic powers to lift her and the box up on top of his head. Kiki smiled as she rode on top of her Claydol friend, "Thank you Trouble." She said, setting the box down in front of her.

The walk back to Pallet town was easy, not as easy as the walk to Viridian town though. Trouble mostly floated down the ledges that were carved into the sloping hillside. A few Hypno's jumped out at them, but Kiki and Trouble easily chucked them back into the bushes. They quickly got back to Pallet town, the sun was his in the sky. The day was only half over.

The pair quickly made their way up to Oak's lab, Kiki still riding on Trouble. As they reached Oak's lab, Trouble picked Kiki up, and set her and the box down on the ground. Kiki walked over to the doors, leaning against them to push them open. Trouble shook his head, "You could have asked." He said softly.

Kiki didn't respond as she knocked on the doors that led to Oaks office. From the inside of the office, she could hear what sounded like an argument. When she had knocked, the argument suddenly stopped, and it was a few seconds before the door opened. Oak stood in the door way, looking just slightly flustered. Leaning against the desk was Gary oak, and sitting on the desk looking absolutely terrified was Gary's Nidoran.

Kiki entered, with Trouble following. Trouble turned around and closed the door silently behind him as Kiki went and put the box on the desk. Kiki walked back and joined Trouble next to the door as Oak walked over and opened the box. Oak picked out a small, red, rectangular object out of the box. Oak flipped the object over, and on the backside was a small, yellow indented Star. Oak smiled, "Yep, this is the one."

He turned around to face both Kiki, who had a confused look on her face. Oak shook his head, "Kiki, do you remember that Key I told you about? This is the key, a simple Pokedex, something that every trainer carries around. You see, I made it like this to accomplish two things, the first is to hide the key in plain sight, and the second to to be able to record the pokemon you befriend. You see, when you hit that button and randomized everything, it wiped all the data on the Pokedex, all my life long work. But, it does have another thing. It will only record pokemon that are naturally native to the Kanto region, and along with that, only pokemon that show up on here are able to evolve."

"What does that mean for me?"

"Kiki, my dear, it means that you will not be able to evolve. At all. But, any pokemon that gets registered in this Pokedex will be able to evolve."

Kiki nodded, she was upset that she would not be able to evolve, to grow stronger, but if others could, then not all was lost. Oak smiled, glad that the small Bagon understood. Just as he was about to hand her the Pokedex though, Gary spoke up, "Oi! Gramps, if she gets a Dex, I want one too. I will not just sit by on the sidelines, not with this stupid poison rat. I want my Charmander back."

Oak sighed, and handed Kiki the Pokedex, before reaching back into the box. He pulled out another Dex, and handed it to his grandson, "There, you can have that one. Good luck." Oak said, obviously done with his arrogant and troublesome grandson. Gary ripped the Dex out of Oak's hand, roughly grabbed his Nidoran by the ears, and marched out of the office, "Smell ya later, looser dragon." He said, before he slammed the doors behind him on his march out of Oak's office and lab.

Oak sighed, "what am I going to do with that boy? He has no respect for anything, except power." Oak looked at Kiki, "Maybe you can teach him a lesson?" Oak said, shrugging, "anyways, good luck on your Journey. Don't forget to register your new friend there when you get back to Viridian city. Oh, and if you leave now, you should be able to make it by dusk."

Kiki nodded, and took her leave, Trouble following. Oak was correct too, the pair reached Viridian city just as night was falling, throwing the surrounding land into darkness. Instead of sleeping outside, Kiki headed to the pokemon center. It only took a few seconds to boot up the PC, and register Trouble as her first companion. While Kiki did that, Trouble talked to Nurse Joy and got them a room at the center. The pair walked back to their room together, and together they laid on their separate beds in silence and darkness. Finally, Kiki broke the darkness, "You know we might die on this quest."

"Yes."

"You know you do not have to do this. I can easily go-"

"Don't. I want to do this. You have given me something to live for, Kiki. I do not care if I die, for I know that I will have died for a worthy cause."

Kiki smiled from where she was laying, "Thank you Trouble. Thank you." She whispered into the darkness as she slipped away into sleep. Trouble nodded from his bed, as he too faded into the land of sleep.
