Lucas awoke to screeching wingulls outside his bedroom window. He rubs his eyes before opening them to see his packed backpack. This reminded him that he was going with his parents to rustboro later in the day. This motivated him to get dressed and out of his room to be greeted by cubone with a welcoming “cuBONE.” “Hey buddy” Lucas responded still a little drowsy. He walked in the kitchen and His mother said “Good morning, ready for the trip?” with a chuckle and he casually answered “yeah, but I wanna do some stuff before leaving.” He continues into the living room and sees presents on the coffee table and his Dad walks in and informs “Those are your late birthday presents because it’s the first time we’ve been home since then.” Lucas’s face lights up as he tears through the wrapping paper and discovers a pokedex, pokenav, and six pokeballs. His father says “we’ve noticed that you were getting interested in training cubone so we decided we would give you the tools to start being a trainer, and also one of those pokeballs is for cubone in case you need it.” “Thanks” Lucas responds. Cubone walks in to the room upon hearing its name. “Come on cubone” Lucas calls and he runs and jumps onto Lucas’s shoulders and they climb down to the ground. They go around the town saying “Good bye” to all their neighbors and then Lucas got the idea to talk to Winona about becoming a trainer and maybe she will be nice enough to add herself to his pokenav, so they travel to the gym. Lucas opens the door and calls out “Winona you here?”
