A/N: HEY HEY HEY! New fanfic, a crossover in two fandoms I haven't written in before! So yay! Oh, and that also means there will probably be some- or A LOT- of OOC- I haven't watched any of the Pokemon episodes in the Sinnoh region since, forever, and I've only been watching Hetalia for a week.

Yeah, only a WEEK. AND I'M ALREADY ADDICTED. Blame Sofia.

So, constructive criticism accepted! I guess...

And this is an idea I'm only playing with... so... yeah.

Enjoy!

As soft sunlight brushed the grass and the light breeze ticked the leaves, three travelers and their Pokemon sighed happily.

"This is the life," Ash said blissfully, lying in the soft grass, eating some of the food Brock had prepared. His Pikachu sighed and closed his eyes in agreement.

Dawn smiled and nodded. "Mhm..." she took a bite of her own food, then offered a piece to her Piplup, who took it and ate it ravenously in one bite.

They all laughed, including Brock, who was cleaning up their supplies in preparation for their their departure.

You know," Dawn said, "I could just lie here forever and watch the clouds move across the sky..."

Brock laughed. "Yeah, I could, too. But, we do have places to go."

Dawn grunted softly, getting up to her feet. "Yeah, you're right." She turned Ash, who was already running off towards the path.

"Hey, Ash, wait up!" both Dawn and Brock called, running after Ash.

He grinned at them. "Ha, you have catch up to me!" he yelled back picking up his pace.

"Hey!" Both Dawn and Brock gave chase, the three of them laughing happily.

In the forest, the three of them walked, investigating their surroundings while Dawn hummed softly, her Piplup humming along with her.

Suddenly, there was a rustle in a bush ahead of them, and they all turned.

"Woah, was that a wild Pokemon?" Ash said, and Brock shrugged.

"I don't know." Brock said, taking a step forwards to look into the bush, which apparently wasn't needed- the bush rustled again, louder this time, before a Pokemon popped out of it, landing delicately on it's paws before looking up at them, grinning madly.

Ash stared. There was an Eevee standing in front of them, but something was... different about this one, and he could tell Brock and Dawn were thinking the same thing.

Not only was it an Eevee in the Sinnoh region, where it wasn't sighted very often, it also had it's eyes closed, and it seemed very happy. It's fur was a lighter brown than most Eevees, and it had an interesting curl of- hair? fur?- on the left side of it's head.

But the most notable thing was that there was a strange air Ash felt from it- as if this Eevee had more to it than at first glance.

The Eevee studied them with it's head tilted to the side, a large grin on it's face, and Ash, Dawn, and Brock thought they had summed up everything odd about it until it opened it's mouth.

"Ah~!" the Eevee said loudly, causing everybody to jump. "Hello there~, I am Italy, ve~! Do you have any pasta, ve~? I love pasta~!" he added cheerfully.

Dawn's eyes widened. "Did... did that Eevee just talk?" she asked, disbelief clouding her voice, and Piplup, determined to protect his trainer, dropped to the ground and took a stance before the Eevee- who was apparently called Italy- and cried, "Piplup!" before launching a fairly weak Bubble Beam at Italy, who shrieked and jumped back.

"AHHH!" he screamed, waving a white flag furiously with his paw. "WHY ARE YOU SHOOTING THOSE WEIRD BUBBLE THINGS AT ME I ALREADY TOLD YOU I'D TELL YOU EVERYTHING I KNOW, WHICH IS PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING I KNOW! PLEASE DON'T KILL ME, PLEASE!"

He took a large breath, then started to shriek at the top of his lungs. "HELP ME, GERMANY! GERMANY, HEEEELP! GERMANY!"

As he continued on his screeching rant, Dawn couldn't help but feel sorry. "Aw, poor little guy must feel all lonely," she said as Brock went down onto one knee, bringing himself closer to eye level with Italy, who was still wailing for 'Germany'- whoever that was.

"Hey, little guy," he said softly, reaching out his hand.

At first, Italy screeched for 'Germany' again with that unnaturally high voice of his, but he stopped when he saw that Brock wasn't going to hurt him. He quieted as Brock slowly stroked him with one hand, eventually picking him up in his arms.

Italy sighed blissfully. "Ve, ve~! Ah, that feels very nice~!"

Dawn smiled sweetly. "Aw, isn't he cute?" In her arms, Piplup let out an indignant "Piplup!", reminding his trainer he was still there. Dawn laughed. "Yeah, and you, too, Piplup." Piplup smiled smugly in satisfaction.

Ash frowned. "But how does he talk? The only Pokemon I know that talks it Team Rocket's Meowth," he said, Pikachu on his shoulder agreeing with a terse "Pika."

Brock shrugged. "Maybe he taught himself, like how Meowth did," he suggested.

Ash shook his head. "I doubt that- he looks pretty stupid, if you ask me!" he laughed, and Dawn let out an exasperated sigh.

"Look who's talking," she muttered, Piplup nodding in agreement, and Ash turned angrily on her. "Shut up!" he hissed.

While Dawn and Ash began a heated argument, Piplup and Pikachu watching warily, while Brock looked at Italy, who stared back cluelessly with a huge grin across his face.

Brock raised an eyebrow. Never before has he encountered a Pokemon like this one. Like Ash, he knew something was off about this Eevee, this "Italy", as he called himself, but he couldn't put his finger on what exactly. Maybe if he talked to it a little...

"I'm gonna catch it." Ash suddenly said, cutting through Brock's train of thought, and Dawn turned to Ash in alarm.

"What?! Why?!"

He huffed. "You know why! Who would pass up a chance to catch possibly the only naturally-talking Eevee-"

"His name is Italy." Dawn corrected, stiff.

"Okay, okay, Italy. Hey, and even if he's weak, I could train him! I know you guys felt it. He's pretty powerful, even for only a little Eevee." he took out a Pokeball. "Now if he can only stay still for just a second..."

Surprisingly, Italy knew what a Pokeball was and what it did, and he didn't seem to happy about it. He launched himself from Brock's arms and landed on the ground, shaking like a leaf and waving his white flag again.

"NO! DON'T THROW THAT THING AT ME! GERMANY! GERMANY! HELP, GERMANY, HELP!" he shrieked again, but it was too late.

"Go, Pokeball!" Ash yelled, throwing the Pokeball at Italy, who was paralyzed and rigid in horror. They all knew (including Italy himself) Italy didn't have enough time to jump to safety.

Italy hid his head under his paws in fear, and Ash was sure that the Eevee was going to be caught. Yes, yes...!

Suddenly, a Shadow Ball shot out from the forest, hitting the Pokeball and sending it flying away from Italy, who peeked from under his paws, wonder why he hadn't been caught yet and what all of the commotion was about.

They all whipped around towards the source of the Shadow Ball, and their eyes widened in surprise to see an Umbreon standing there, panting hard. Ash widened his eyes when he saw seven other Pokemon behind it, including a Roserade, a Braviary, an Absol, and a Mienshao.

There was tension between the two groups, most notably from the Umbreon and Ash, until Italy jumped towards the Pokemon.

"GERMANY!" he yelled in relief, running towards the Umbreon, who widened it's eyes.

"What ze-" the Umbreon began before Italy tackled him, sobbing.

"GERMANY! GERMANY! THE SCARY PEOPLE WERE ATTACKING ME AND I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO AND IT WAS SO SCARY AND I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO EVEN WHEN I WAS WAVING MY WHITE FLAG THEY STILL ATTACKED ME!"

All Ash, Dawn, Brock, Piplup, and Pikachu could do was hang their jaws in shock.

A/N: Okay! So wadda you guys think? I thought it was meh. And I need help finding Pokemon for the rest of the Axis and Allies... so far I have Italy, Germany, France, America, Japan, and China (In the order they appear).

ITALY IS KINDA HARD TO WRITE. T.T

R&R!
