I've went ahead & spoiled you all with the first 2 chapters! I'l add new ones when I can so keep checking back

Please leave your feedback, & ENJOY!

The Kanto Spy

Chapter One: A new leaf...

Dressed in his newly acquired tux-like uniform & standard issue spy-net gear, he felt like a man on the moon. As he entered the Kanto Secret Agency (or Kanto SA)’s committee hall, he noticed the other dozen or so newly promoted Agents. With a tickling sense of pride & gain, he accepted his new Kanto SA Official Agent Badge.

You see, Kanto has a new agency, the Kanto SA – Kanto’s FBI or CIA as such. Law enforcement, national research & security, or private investigator: Kanto SA covered a number of areas.

So how exactly would someone become a spy for this organisation? Well, a number of vigorous training programmes and a great deal of tests would have to be passed by that person before the can become an Agent, or a ‘spy’. Once promoted, these individuals have the liberty of choosing an agent codename – unfortunately, this liberty comes with equally unfortunate names, such as Agent of Doom (you could imagine the humiliation that person got), or something so immature or rude that a writer like me has too much authority to include it on the very page you read.
Agent K. He liked that. His initial, short & sweet. This was his chosen codename.

This young man was in the prime of his twenties. His hair was brushed with a dark blond colour and remained relatively short. With an average build & standing 6 foot 3 in height, he was a good man for the job. He had initially wanted to become a gym leader in his early teens, but he also enjoyed the whole spy thing. Naturally, Kanto SA & its concept was the perfect organisation for him.

A couple of days had followed Agent K’s promotion when he was called upon by Kanto SA’s head – dubbed ‘Big M’. He was giving Agent K his first mission. Now the fun began.

The man was sitting powerfully at his metallic desk. A number of sheets of paper lay in front of him, as well as a silver fountain pen. It was clear to Agent K that he’d just been writing, & that he wouldn’t exactly be merry. The quicker this talk was, the better,
“Agent K?” he asked with surprising intent, Agent K swallowed dry air, and then he managed to speak,
“Yes sir”
“Excellent, welcome to the agency” his friendly tone came as a bit of a shock to K, a relief, yes, but a shock none the less, “Now, I have a task for you, one of respectable importance I might add. You know of Articuno?” K could feel the excitement inside him swelling up. Who hadn’t heard of Articuno? One of the 3 legends of the sky? He immediately replied,
“Indeed I have sir.”
“Good, good. The very one. Now, we need a few photos of the beast, as we have little visual images of it. Your new shades should do the trick. Get some good snaps to the ICE research sector, we send you a good bonus. Catch my drift?”
Bonus? As in, pay? Being an agent rocked, “Yep” said K.
“Then I hope to hear from the ICE scientists with good news. Unfortunately, we do have a date set. We need the images by tomorrow, 3pm at the latest”
“Consider it done sir”, & with that, he turned...
... “Oh wait, hold on a second!” Big M scribbled something down & handed it to Agent K, “see this man. Get a Pokémon. If there’s none left, see if he can help you catch one. Good luck m’boy”

Unsure, K replied, “Thanks sir”. With that, he turned... & he left.

Agent K read the paper given to him, it read:

See Prof. Oak in Pallet town. Show him your badge; he’ll give you your starter.
‘Big M’
The excitement propelled Agent K to the heliport area.


Chapter two: A friendship ignites

As afternoon arrived in Pallet Town, so too did a Kanto SA heli-jet. The vehicle came to rest, out popped Agent K, & then it took off again. “Right,” thought K, “Oak. Where was this guy?”

His question was soon answered when a girl of around 15-16 emerged from a large building, clutching & gazing at a spherical object in her hand. K guessed it was a poke ball... which it was, as the young girl approached him & flourished her badge, “Are you an Agent?” she asked.
“Yes. Agent K.” He showed his badge, “were you looking for me?”
“Ah! Y-yes, I’m Ground Scout Lexi... sir!” she hastily replied, “I was assigned to meet you here & make sure you got a starter successfully.”
“I see, would that be a starter there then?” K pointed towards the ball, still in the anxious clutches of young Lexi,
“That’s right!” she answered, again hastily (she must’ve had at least 3 tonnes of sugar this morning – that or she was always just a happy person. You don’t often get those...) “Wanna see?”
Before K had time to open his mouth, the ball was tossed in the air. It then shot open; releasing a stream of pure white among the ground, this light eventually formed a reptilian shape & dispersed.
Leaving a small lizard.
With its tail on fire.
Ouch.
“This is my Charmander!” Lexi exclaimed, “I call her Charina, isn’t she just gorgeous! You can tell she’s healthy because of her flame...”
“So I see...” said Agent K, not really meaning it, “Well, I’ll be 2 minutes”. With that, he entered Oaks lab.

Not too high tech, but not exactly a farm house. The lab seemed to be a pretty standard place, with a handful of assistants running about, attending to something or another. K eventually found Oak’s room, knocked, but walked in anyway, “Can I help you?” the seemingly old man said,
“Yes. Kanto SA.” Agent K whipped out his badge, he felt really important & cool now, “I’m here about the starter.”
“Ah, yes! I’ve been waiting, oh, & I trust you met young Lexi outside? Such a nice lass her, if a bit jittery. Do come this way...”
Oak led K to a distinctive desk, before he paused, “Oh... that’s right...” he turned to K, “Sorry son, I’m afraid all 3 are gone. Charmander was the only one left, but as you can see, she’s been chosen by Lexi.
K was a little disappointed – he’d always liked the thought of having his own Charmander, like Lexi. Guess he’d need to find alternate means...
...which Oak happily provided, “Forgive me if I’m wrong... but you wouldn’t happen to be interested in fire types, would you?”
“Well, I think they’re an essential part of any squad professor”
“Well then,” he began, “I’ve got good news for you. Here, take these” he tossed a batch of poke balls towards K, & continued while he was picking a few missed ones up, “Let’s go outside!”

True to his word, Oak took Agent K to the entrance of Pallet Town, searching through the tall grass, “I’ve had a few reported sightings of these fellas over the past few days. Unusual for them to be seen this side of Kanto...”
K was slightly puzzled, “Professor, what exactly are you on ab-”
“Ssshh! Look!” he whispered loudly, “That one looks sturdy. What d’you think?”
Agent K looked onward... & he saw it...

Leaving a small lizard.
With its tail on fire.
Ouch.

^That made me laugh.
Anywho, I like the story, although you never actually said his real name. At first I had noticed some spelling errors, but then I realized you must use "European English," so I won't point those out to you.

P.S.: I think he sees a pikachu.

I dont think so... I mean. Srsly, Oak asked if he -by any chance- liked FIRE pokemon. ^^;;

So your basic Kanto choices would be...

- Charmander
- Charmeleon
- Charizard
- Ponyta
- Rapidash
- Magmar
- Growlithe
- Arcanine


^^;; Pikachu's electric type *nods*



P.S. I may have to fill in the rest of the Fanfiction for Tartan Panda. He cant be bothered ^^;;
