"RED! It's morning! Time to wake up!"

As you open your eyes, you take in the details around you. Off to your side in the middle of the room is a TV and a video game system. Behind it is a bookcase resting against the wall. Next to it in the corner is a desk with a PC on it. In the other corner is a set of stairs going downward.

It takes you a short time to realize that this is your room. Then the voice that called you was your mother. The fog in your mind begins withdrawing, and you remember how you asked her to wake you up early.

Today was the day you go to OAK's LAB and pick out your first POKéMON before setting out into the world to be a TRAINER.

Soon, the distant lingerings of the dream you woke from are not even a distant memory as you hurry up and get dressed.

Beyond a clean pair of underwear and pants, there's not much to your wardrobe that'll offer you a great deal more variety than you usually wear. So you put on one of your clean shirts and jackets before spending a bit longer hunting down your hat.

Finding it under your bed, you give it a quick dusting off before placing it on your head.

You are now ready to start your day!
