kanto region, pallet town
On-one
The sun was rising everyone in the
orphanage was sleeping except for one girl with long white hair with crystal blue eyes, she was an early morning person, she loved to see the sun rising every morning, she always felt a little alone but seeing the sun rise helps her that's really not the case

She See's pokemon waking up, flying in the morning sky, she stays like this until the caretaker calls for her "Clara!! I need a little help with breakfast" the caretaker name was Layla, she was always kinda like a mother to her always helping her understand what she doesn't, when some kids avoid her Layla would comport her,

Because Clara has white hair some kids find it weird and didn't want to play with her, Clara got used to it and doesn't bother with it, as long as Layla treats her well she has someone to talk to,

Clara has always been mature, so Layla can rest easy when she goes out in the forest alone,

After going in the kitchen Clara sees Layla making morning stew ,toasting bread and pouring milk to drink, "Clara good timing can you help me chop the vegetable and meat pour them into the stew" said Layla

"Hmm ok" said Clara taking out the vegetable and helping her mother figure with her task,

After some time breakfast was ready, Clara took her part of the breakfast and want to eat outside, she doesn't want to be around the other's when eating, she then took a book about pokemon and reads it like every day, then one by one kids enter the kitchen and started to eat,

Clara could hear them talking loudly from the inside of the house, Clara quickly finished her breakfast and turned back to the kitchen to washed her plate and took her bag with medicinal herbs book and some snacks for some random pokemon she meets on the road,

"Layla I'm going out" said Clara

"Ok be careful out there!" Said Layla

"I know" said Clara as she stepped out side and want to the forest Like always

She wonders around the forest seeing some pokemon here and there, picking some herbs she was familiar with to treat some wounds, she saw an unfamiliar road she never want to and decided to take this road today,

She saw some herbs from the book that she didn't see before and took them and want on her way, she came across a large lake, she decided to stop here for a break, and took out her books and snacks to eat,

Suddenly she heard some splashing sounds on the lake and looked up from her book, she see a fish pokemon it was gray brown with blue fin, she quickly opened her book to know which type of pokemon it was and saw its name was feebas,

"It looks hurt" thought clara "normally feebas don't live in these kind of place, it must have been chased here" she also thought

Clara quickly took out her medicine and carefully and gently took steps forward toward the hurt pokemon,

"Hello little one" Clara gently asked to get the feebas attention,

It was at first scared and almost divided away, in order not to frighten it more she backed away, making the feebas stop,

She used hand gesture to show it that she wants to help, she also took out the snacks to show it, the feebas must have understood and let her come close and touch it Clara give it snacks, as she check on more injurys on its body and found two more, the feebas wanted to eat more so she took out all the snacks she had and give it the feebas, it happily ate, as Clara applied the medicine to the wounds,

"There its done, you're be fine once you take some rest" said Clara

As the feebas swimmed around to show its happiness, Clara even made sure to use gently movement not to hurt it,

Clara thought it would leave after getting treated and eating, so she started to read again after some time she felt weight on her body and see the feebas was getting on her lap to see what she was reading, many people finds feebas ugly but to clara it was beautiful and gently, "you can't fit in my lap like this here let me" said clara as she gently holds the feebas to make it fit on her lap,

"Do you also like to read?" Asked clara as she saw the feebas staring at her book
It nodded, clara knew it didn't know how to read it just wanted to be included in her activities, clara was amused and gently patted it she could feel it felt very happy,

"I wonder why such a beautiful pokemon is called ugly by people" clara said to herself, and the feebas heard her it stared at her with shining eyes

"What? you were never told you were beautiful?" Asked clara

The feebas shook it head "no"

"Maybe because they're jealous of you" said clara the feebas was looking a bit sad, clara could tell it was saying "that's not true"

"Of course it's true, so don't pay attention to those who say hurtful things instead pay attention to those who love you no matter what you look like, you see we're kinda the same because of my hair many people find me weird and avoid me, but I didn't care and only cared about my mother figure who cares for me" said clara seeing the feebas was happy again and nodding at her words

"Always remember that you are enough just as you are and that you are loved" said clara seeing the feebas getting tear in its eyes as clara gently hugged it in her arms

They talked lot until it the sun was going down "I have to go back now" said clara but the feebas refused to leave her

"You can't stay out of the water for long, your healing right now" said clara the feebas still holds on to her skirt clara also didn't want to leave it but she had to return or Layla would get worried,

She suddenly remembered the pokeball Layla give her as a birthday present, and took it out "you want to go with me?" Said clara, the feebas nodded as Clara's small pokeball grew bigger,"would you like a name?"asked clara

The feebas thought for a moment and nodded "jewel, I'll name you jewel what do you think?" Asked clara

The feebas was now excited to be named something beautiful and spinned around in the water to show its happiness clara was also amused and took her pokeball in front of jewel "so" clara didn't have to do anything jewel tip at the pokeball with its head and want in she realized it was her first pokemon Clara gentle strokes the pokeball with love "welcome to the family jewel" said Clara as she returned back to the orphanage to show Layla her new family member,
