So, it seems I’m a writer now. Rated PG15 for Violence, Blood, Fatalities, Occasional Swearing, Moderate Sexual References and Themes, Torture, Political References, Romance, Interspecies Romance, Light Alcohol References, Brutal Crushing of Dreams, Hope Spots, Depression, Lawyers, Narm, and Charlie Sheen Nothing more extreme than most of the movies that manage a PG13 rating nowadays.
Here’s a description of the story if you want to know what you’re getting into: Alternate Universe in which Wally from Pokemon Emerald has the ability to talk to Pokemon, being the only person capable of it. Powers vie to control him as he attempts to become the champion of the region. Note: The events of all of the games after Gold/Silver/Crystal are considered non-canon. The size of the regions involved have been dramatically increased, as they are tiny ingame.

Did you get a choice in life?
He didn’t.
Even I made choices for him.
But I just wanted what was best.
Everyone else wanted to use him.
Abuse his gift.
Abuse him.
He deserved better.
Chapter 1: Talk of the Town
A skinny, green haired, modestly dressed teenager nodded along to the beat of one headphones as he walked through the forest, the Ralts he held in his arms nodding her head along to the beat of the other headphone. “I’ll say it again,” -In the Land of the free,- “Use your freedom of choice!” -Freedom of choice!- They sang, walking along the dirt road, their singing the only thing breaking up the otherwise tranquil silence of the path.
As they came to the entrance of what was supposed to be a small, quiet town, they were surprised by the mass of people gathered within. –I thought this was supposed to be a nice, quiet occasion- The Ralts sulked, crossing her arms. Removing the headphones from his and her ears, the boy shrugged, looking down at her with a smile “Hey, it’ll be alright. It’s just a bunch of people.” The Ralts sulked, turning her head to the side. It was only supposed to be him and her. A quiet affair, not the talk of the town.
Of course, normally, there wouldn’t be a crowd. The boy, Wally, was just another kid becoming a trainer. Sure, he was doing so in-spite of his sickness and frailty, but it still wasn't a big deal. It was his fifteenth birthday, sure, but none of his family could’ve shown up. His Aunt and Uncle were in all the way in Verdanturf, as per his request that he do this by himself, and his parents were…well, he missed them, at least. The reason why so many people were there was simple.
Wally was able to talk to Pokemon. He had learned this fact five years ago, after being aided by Norman, the gym leader of Petalburg City, in the capture of a Ralts. The very Ralts that he held in his arms. At first, everyone thought that his ‘conversing’ with the Pokemon was just him bonding with her, but upon his introduction to another pokemon, he started to talk to it as well. After some experimentation, it was learned that he was actually capable of speaking their language, at which point he became a national celebrity.
Everyone wanted him. Devon Corp wanted him to help them develop their translator, scientists wanted him for research, and less savory types wanted him to aid their quests for domination. Just to name a few. He had gone to Unova to receive his pokedex in the hopes that nobody would follow, that he could get away from the crowds, but word traveled quickly, and he was once again faced by a crowd.
His arrival in Nuvema Town was attended by anyone who was in the know, which was a sizable number of people. The usually quiet, small town was full to its limit as everyone lined up to get a glimpse at the boy who could supposedly speak to Pokemon. There were enough people that even the local Unova ranger force was taking part, serving as crowd control for the potentially unruly mass of people.
Walking past the crowds, Wally gave a light smile, much to the cheering of the crowd. –What are they so up in arms about…- Ralts murmured, rather upset. Wally just hugged her to his chest, his nervous smile quivering “W...well, but they mean the best, so lets return their affections.” The rangers parted the crowd, making sure that the boy and his Ralts had a path to the Pokemon lab. Walking up to the it, Wally was met by an exasperated looking female professor, digging through the pockets of her lab coats, staring down into them as if the act of looking would help her find her mysterious object faster.
“I swear…” She said, chuckling as the boy walked up to her. “This has been quite the day. Never thought I would see Nuvema so crowded…” Shaking her head, she looked back up at Wally, analyzing the boy.
“It’s not every day I get to meet someone like you…Wally, was it?” She asked, tilting her head “Ah, uh, yes Professor Juniper. Nice to meet you.” He said, smiling and setting down his Ralts, who proceeded to look around nervously, keeping a eye out. She did not like the size of this crowd.
Wally extended his hand to the Professor, who laughed “You don’t need to be so high strung, Wally! While this is a day to be taken seriously, that doesn’t mean that you need to be high strung! Here is what I need from you! What I want to hear are the courageous words of people who will blaze new paths around the world! I want you two to travel to many distant places and meet all of the Pokémon in the Unova region!” She coughed, clearing her throat “Oh my me, it’s been so long since I last got to say that. You’ll have to excuse my indulgence.”
She pulled out a pokedex and a trainer card, staring at Wally solemnly “So, can you do this for me, young man?” Wally nodded, smiling and gulping “Of…of course, miss Juniper!” The professsor nodded, handing him the pokedex and trainer card "Well, normally, this is when you would receive a starter, but, well, you already have one!" She said, chuckling. Smiling and grateful, Wally took the pokedex and trainer card and placed them in his pockets, nodding “I’ll-“
He was interrupted by a girl pushing her way past the rangers. “Wally!” She screamed, her distinctive white robes dragging along the ground “We believe in you! You can bring us back to the path promised by-“She was interrupted by a large, bulky ranger tackling her, dragging her back into the crowd. Wally stood there, paralyzed, his smile twitching “Wh…”
A grizzled, elderly ranger walked up to Wally, tilting his hat at Professor Juniper before saying “Sir, with all due respect, we need to get y’all out of here. That there lass was crazy as Tauros in a basket, and we’d rather you get ta’ the next town safely then risk ya’ getting ambushed again.” Wally sighed as the man finished; things just couldn’t go well, could they?
Picking up the furious Ralts, who was about to chase after his mysterious assailant, he paused, a furious cough overtaking him before he nodded “Alright, if you say so.” –I could’ve taken her,- the Ralts said, her voice trembling with rage. “She was just a bit too eager to see us. I’m sure she had good intentions.” Wally replied, both to Ralts and the ranger. –Are…are you alright, master?- The Ralts questioned, realizing that he had been coughing his lungs out “Fine…just…I just need some air…”
Giving the youth a dubious stare, the ranger led him back out of the town, two more soon flanking the teen and his Ralts, forming a triangle-like perimeter around him. “Err, rangers, I really appreciate this, but it isn’t necessary!” He said, bowing to the grizzled one “She was just being over frien-“
“Boy, she was damn crazy.” The ranger, interrupting Wally “And y’all sound like yer about to fall over from a coughin’ fit, so yer gonna have us on yer rear come rain or sn…what in the name of sam hill?” The lady had returned, walking towards them with a brisk pace “Now lookie here lass…” The old man warned, preparing a pokeball.
Suddenly two more similarly wide-robed garbed men leapt from the nearby trees, grappling the other two rangers and pinning them to the ground. “By Arecus, what is going-“ The lady lunged, a crackling laugh filling the woods as she tackled the ranger. “Run, my master! Be free from these chains, so that your flock may join you!” Grunting, the ranger struggled to get the surprisingly strong girl off of him. “Geroff me, yah crazy lass!” He shouted, attempting to pry her arms off of his body.
Panicking, looking around wildly, Wally turned tail and ran, running as fast as he could. A small rock, stabbing out of the ground, a inconsequential thing, intercepted his foot as he ran, sending him stumbling to the ground. Coughing furiously as his body collided with the harsh ground, he hugged Ralts to himself tightly to shield her from the impact, the Pokemon wincing in panic.
As he struggled to maintain consciousness, he saw out of the corner of his eye the rangers starting to get overpowered…a flash of red, gushing out of…no, it couldn't be the old, grizzled, powerful-looking ranger’s throat.
There was no way…it had to be the red beam of a pokeball releasing the Pokemon inside, coincidentally right were the ranger's throat was. They…they wouldn't kill him, right?
Ralts squirmed out of her trainers grasp and waddled in between his gaze and the fighting mob in front of them, her arms spread wide as she started to glow. –I…I wont let those crazy people lay a finger on you, master!- She shouted, her voice fraught with nerves. Wally forced a smile, he knew she wouldn't let them. But there was no need for that... His voice a shaky whisper, he forced out the words “Its…*cough*…ok, they wont hurt us…” …Would they?
These were the last things the skinny, modestly dressed, green hair teenager saw and thought before he passed out, from the impact of the landing, and from the trauma of the violence.
Even back then, they tried to control him.
Why couldn’t they let him be?
Why did he have to be born with shackles?
He never asked for this.
But he was always smiling.
Forcing his sweet smile even when faced by bloodshed.
Smiling as those bastards played him like a marionette.
Although it may not seem it, this chapter is fairly important, as it establishes a few things: Wally and Ralts' personalities (yes she will be getting a actual name eventually, don't worry), the strange, robed people which will be elaborated on soon enough, and Wally's popularity.
Mostly the reason I decided to cut off there, however, was because I was certain that people did not want to read a behemoth of a first post.
Also, damn Wally, you are a wiiiimp.
