Vermilion was 6 when he watched Cynthia defeat the reigning Champion and become the new Champion of the Sinnoh region. He knew what he wanted to do with his life after that. Now, on his 12th birthday, an accidental trip down to the Grand Underground finally sets him on the path to becoming a fully-fledged pokemon trainer. Hey all, if you couldn’t tell by the title, this is a pokemon fanfic inspired by classic shonen storytelling with a cast of mostly original characters set in the Sinnoh region. (for legal reasons, I obviously don't own Pokémon or that stock cover art)
