Pokemon: Say "Thanks, but no thanks..."

From Create Your Own Story

As much as you want a Pokémon, and as much as you've been looking forward to this day, you just can't help but feel that this Pikachu wouldn't be right for you.

"Um, no thanks, Professor..." you say, not wanting to sound rude.

"No, no, that's perfectly alright. I understand." Professor Oak walks back to the other room to return Pikachu's ball. "Is there anything I else I could assist you with? Perhaps a tour of the Pokémon preserve, out back?" he says as he enters again.

That does sound interesting, you think, but before you have a chance to respond, a phone starts to ring on the wall opposite you. "Hold that thought," Oak says as he crosses the room to answer it. As he picks up, a video showing a man's face starts on a screen above the phone. "Oh, hello Bill!" Oak says before dropping his voice, leaving you unable to hear the conversation.

They talk for a few minutes before you hear a metallic sound. You look to see another Poké Ball materializing in the center of a device sitting next to the phone. The two talk for another minute or so before Oak hangs up and the video disappears. Holding the new Poké Ball in his hand, the Professor walks back over to you.

"Sorry for that, that was Bill, the genius behind the computerized box system that all trainers come to know and love. Anyway..." Oak gives you a penetrating look before continuing. "It appears that one of his prized Pokémon had an egg while left at the day care. It hatched today, but Bill had no use for it, so he thought it would be best to give it to me to be raised in the preserve. What I have here in my hand is an Eevee. Quite an unusual little Pokémon..." The Professor pauses again to give you another look. "Given your situation... I've decided I'll let you take this Pokemon as your starter... if you're up for it."

You can't believe this! Eevee is supposed to be a fairly rare Pokémon, and here it's being handed to you. Still though, you give it a moment's thought before deciding.
