Set two years after Red had become the champion of the Indigo League, Seris Nova is sent to Pallet Town by his mother to meet her longtime friend. However, shortly after arriving, he finds out that friend was Red's mother, who has not seen her son i...
G: Fine, fine. If you are going to face the other gyms, I suggest starting off with Brock in Pewter City. He was trainers' first stop for getting their first badge before Blue came.
Seris: Pewter City, huh? Alright, how do I get there?
*G holds his paper with one hand before using the other hand to point his thumb behind him and pointing it down path towards a route and a brush thicket*
G: Go down this road into Route 2 and go through it and Viridian Forest all the way to the other side and you should get there eventually.
Seris: Alright. Thanks for the heads up, G. I'll see you later.
*He waves at the young man slightly as he gets walks down the path G directed him*
G: ...The kid kind of reminds me of him, except more expressive.
*As Seris walks around a decent patch of tall grass in Route 2 and about an hour and a half of walk, he has finally made it to the Viridian Forest, where he sees a bunch of trees and Bug Pokémon littered the entire area. Not only that, but also a bunch of branching pathways for him to take, which made him somewhat annoyed*
Seris: Note to self: Punch G in the gut the next time I see his smartass...
???: Eeevvvvooooo!
*Seris is taken out of his thoughts when sees something that approaching one of the patches of tall grass, sniffing it. Upon a better look, he sees that is an Eevee next to it and gets excited*
Seris: Holy crap! An Eevee. Pokémon number two, here I come.~
*He readies Armada's pokéball in his hand and prepares to throw it at the unsuspecting Pokémon*
Seris: I choose y-
???: There you are, Eevee!
*Seris trips up a little bit from hearing this before seeing the Eevee look up a bit in the direction of the voice and smile before running a short distance to a trainer next to a tree near the entrance. The trainer bends down and pets the Pokémon's head before speaking again*
???: Don't run off like that, man. There are Weedle out there and they definitely get their point across.
*The trainer looks up a bit and sees Seris trying to compose himself a bit from almost accidentally stealing a Pokémon and sees the PDA on his wrist before giving a chipper smile in his direction*
???: Well, what do you know. You are the other tester after all.
*Seris looks up and sees the trainer walking toward him with the Eevee in tow before looking at him a good bit and thinks heavily*
???: What's the problem?
Seris: You said I'm the other tester but... yeah, I have no clue what the heck you are talking about...
*The trainer laughs it off a bit before giving him a straight answer*
???: What I mean is that you a beta tester like me and the other girl. See!
*The guy holds up his right wrist to reveal the same PDA as Seris before Seris's eyes widen as he realizes it now*
Seris: Ohhhhh crap! You were that guy who was outside the lab with that one ninja in Pallet.
*The young man gives a hardy smile as he puts his hands in his pockets*
???: That's right, but I am not some guy.

Mickey: My name is Mickey, and it's great to finally meet the third tester in Krane's project.
Seris: What do you mean by "third tester?"
Mickey: I mean that you were the third and last person to not only get their starter but also getting the beta version of the PDA like me. I was the second person while that girl you saw back then was the first.
