A small blond girl, around 8 or so, leaned against a well as she sat in the grass. There were a bunch of slowpoke around her, one even on her head and one in her lap. She was asleep, just like all the pokemon around her. The young blond's brown eyes soon opened as she heard her name being called.
"Michiyo!" the voice called.
Michiyo blinked slowly as she tried to get fully awake. She heard the familiar voice call her once again, and at that moment Michiyo was gently moving the slowpoke off her. She patted them on the head as she got up.
"Coming!" she called back as she rushed to the voice, which belonged to her father.

-A Few Days Later...-

Michiyo stared at the oval object in front of her. She was on the ground, level to the object. She turned her head to the slowpoke next to her, "I'll go show it to dad and see what he thinks." She picked up the white, with green spots, object and rushed home.
When she got home she plopped the heavy oval thing on the table.
"Hey Dad! Whats this?"
The man stopped eating just as the spoon full of cereal was in his mouth. He swallowed and put the spoon down with a smile on his face.
"That my dear Michiyo," He began, "is a Pokemon egg."
Michiyo looked at the egg with a delightful smile, "Really!?"
"Yup," He said as he ruffled the top of Michiyo's hair. "You know what, I think," He said happily, "I think this egg is yours since you found it."
Michiyo jumped up happily, "Really!? Mine?!"
Michiyo's father nodded with a grin.

Michiyo soon began learning how to take care of the egg and how to raise a pokemon properly. She had the egg with her everywhere, she had it with her all the time.
Around 2 months had passed when the egg finally hatched.
