Barry Allen likes to think that he is completely happy, thank you very much. He has a good job, an amazing family and overall brilliant life.
Not to mention that he's a super hero as well; The Flash, fastest man alive.

But deep inside of him, in a place so secure not even Martian Manhunter could breach it - after all he learnt how to defend against psychics at a very young age; thank you paranoid best friend! - he knows that he isn't. He doesn't let anyone see his secret side, the side that makes him feel the need to creep away somewhere – last week was China, he's considering Turkey for next time – and cry a bit.
In these moments he often asks himself questions, and they're always the same.

Why? Why did he leave? Why did he accept that stupid offer? Why did he just go and leave them behind?

He already knows the answer.
It was the speed. It was all about the speed; even back then, when he rattled on about victories and million pound fines, even amongst all the fun and havoc – like that one occasion with the angry herd of buneary in Eterna Forest. Who knew something so fluffy could be so terrifying? – it had been about the speed.
How fast did he get there? How fast did he win? New record? Sweet! How fast did he beat it?

Fast, fast, fast,
Speed, speed, speed,

Sometimes he worries. Not about the villains, it's his past that worries him. What if she comes after him? Please don't. What if she brings the others? He hopes she wouldn't.
She'd ask him to come back, he knows that she would.
And he'd want to say yes – he misses home. Except? Is it home anymore? – but he'd want to say no.
Then he'd have to choose.

He hates choices that can't be resolved quickly.

Quickly, fast, speed. It always comes back to the speed.
If he went back, would he have it? No, that was part of the deal, going back equals no speed. Plus this world needs him, it needs the Flash. And he has a family, he can't just abandon them.

But he's done it before.

'I know I've done it before' he wants to scream, except he can't because there's no one to scream it to or at. He knows he's done it before, and he regrets it more than anything else he's done. He can't do it again, he just can't.
He stays, and he's a hero, and he has a family – they're awesome, but they aren't his other family, his first family. He misses them so much, especially her – but somehow it always comes back to the speed.

Because the speed seems like it's everything.

I actually came up with this somewhere around mid april, but I never got around to writing it properly, I had like ten drafts and this si the final product. The only difference between this and the last draft is that I added some of his thought processes.
So basically, I was bored and wanted to write something and then I decided to look at Young Justice fanfiction. Then, I noticed that there were no pokemon crossovers, which got me thinking 'What would happen if someone actually did a crossover?'
Suddenly, out of nowhere Barry springs to mind. The pokemon one, not the speedster. And then I notice something.
Barry is characterized as always being in a rush in the games, he never wants to be late. He's got a messy head of blonde hair and is hyperactive. His last name is never given, so how easy is it to assume that it could be Allen for example? The similarities were all there, and lo and behold, this was born.

So basically, Barry Allen. the Flash, and Barry, the hyperactive trainer, are one and the same. At some point the legendaries approached him and made him an offer, and he moved dimensions, growing up on Earth-16 from the age of thirteen. The 'her' mentioned is Dawn. 'Cause in my mind, she and Barry are like siblings. The 'paranoid best friend' mentioned is Lukas, because he, Barry and Dawn are friends in my mind as well.

I may or may not expand on this. I have a plot lien in mind if I do, but I need a lot of practice before I can get the Team in characters, not to mention the Justice League. But there chances are okay-ish towards this being expanded on, seeing as I have most of the details down, from Barry's pokemon team and moveset to the explanation for why his eyes are blue and not amber( which by the way, is not contacts).

So, is this any good? Should I bother expanding on it?
