A/N: Okay this is another Pokemon story I decided to make! This will mostly be based on the Hoenn region (probably with AshMax who knows) and it involves my OC! If any of you are familiar with my other stories involving my OC or so, just check the profile page!

Note: Since this is Hoenn, I'll be using a separate team I have rather than the one on my profile (Don't get me wrong I still adore the Sinnoh and Unova teams!).

Highlight: Ash and his friends are busy getting lost... Practically all the time. But they take a different route, not on the Hoenn region map, and they end up meeting a child with only six pokemon of his own, 12 years old, and already has his team working in Harmony! Read on to see what happens!

Thank you for taking the time to read this portion of the fic! I OWN NOTHING! But the plot, story and OC obviously. :) Now on with the story!


The wind hums it's tune gently in the air. Tree branches slowly sway within the wind's melody. The air lays silent, besides the howling wind, and the light pricks of leaves that have unhinged themselves from the branches. Their early onset of red and orange hues signifies the oncoming season of Autumn. The cool weather allows the leaves to change, and Pokemon to grow their new coats for Winter.

Furrets scurry along the leave tattered paths, scavenging for food. Digging a small hole to hide berries, and some forms of leftovers from people who refused to clean after eating. Caterpies, Wurmple's, and Weedle's end up evolving as the wind circles their bodies, forming into their second stage.

Hoothoot's, pidgey's fly around searching for twigs to build to their homes for extra protection. Rattata's go left to right from their homes under trees. Sometimes they would bother nests of Nincada's by accident resulting in getting a scratch or a flurry of fury cutter attacks.

One Pokemon in particular that made the other small ones hide, had a huge shadow in it's shape when circling the air above. The sun reflected off of the metal like feathers, making it practically unable to be seen. However that didn't stop the small ones from hiding in hole, or camouflage. It attempts to catch prey using it's sharp claws, only missing when the prey dodges.

"Brock, how long are you going to take with that food? I'm starvinggggggggggggggggh." A red capped boy groaned.

"I feel like I haven't eaten in days." a green shirt wearing younger child mumbled. Head on the table with a bored/annoyed expression. 'Pika pi' a yellow mouse laying on its stomach, nothing in it.

"If I don't get food soon, I'm going to starve." a brown haired girl grumbled.

"Now guys if you don't wait enough, the food won't be prepared properly." Brock said trying to brighten his friends mood. Although the wait was about fifteen minutes later, it felt like forever for the trio waiting for food to be ready.

"Alright, Lunch is ready!" Brock mentioned with a delight on his face. "ALRIGHT!"

The trio shouted again, racing to the chef's food, mouth watering expressions. Looking at the various hamburgers, rice cakes, sandwiches really made them want to devour everything within sight. "WAIT!" Brock yelled at them.

They turned their heads, a little grumpy red throbs appearing on their heads. "We can't just start without the Pokemon out! C'mon out everybody!" Brock yelled pressing the button on all of his pokeballs. Onix, geodude, bonsly, and Marshtomp popped out. "Yeah! Let's go!" Ash shouted having Grovyle, phanpy, Torkoal, corphish and Swellow pop out.

"It's time to eat!" May threw her pokeballs into the air, letting skitty, combusken, beautifly, Squirtle, bulbasaur and munchlax pop out. Ash, with the help of Max, aided in getting each pokemon their own individual food bowls, filling them with pokefood. Most had flavors, but they preferred Brock's version of food.

"Dig in everybody!" Brock yelled. He got a variety of screams of glee, as everyone literally dug into their food. It was practically relaxing. In the clearing of the path Ash and his friends took, the place felt lovely. The cool weather, the sunshine, everyone of their pokemon and companions with them. Having Lunch in peace for what seemed like a while.

Getting used to attempting to battle all of the frontier leaders, was a struggle. Ash always kept his confidence up, and just the attempts from his team mates made him happy. Whether it be win or lose, he always looked happy. Just finding the solutions to fix things up when their came obstacles, and they would move on.

Max somehow found that to be inspiring in his eyes. Looking up to him as if like a father figure. The way Ash would smile, made him feel happy inside. Traveling with him really did open his eyes to the greater things their are to Pokemon, especially himself. he could feel his face burn with a blush just watching him.

"Max, hurry up, or the food will get cold and their won't be any left!" Ash taunted, snapping the younger boy out of his thoughts. "I don't think so Ash!" he said smirking like him, scarving down every morsel that was on the wooden table. "Calm down, guys or you'll choke!" May warned them eating at a fast pace, but not like them. The pokemon were silently eating their food in good contempt as well.

Grovyle layed in the shade of tree, eating its food one by one a pellet, watching the others finish. Phanpy happily finished in peace without having corphish take any of its food. It saw Pikachu had finished its food as well, so they started playing a game of tag. Although Pikuchu was the one being chased, as Phanpy always preferred chasing after the mouse's tail. One by one, each pokemon had their fill of food, they too joined in on relaxing or playing.

"Well I'm full." "Me too." *BURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRP* the two boys blew out.

"Ew, why do you have to be gross." May uttered almost detesting the obnoxious action.

"Well we all have to let it out somehow." Brock said calming the girl down. "Yeah May, don't have a Miltank." Max said. "I mean we couldn't leave ourselves like that right Max?" he faced the younger child smiling. Max blushed a little, and started laughing with Ash. This gained attention however not team rocket related, in a nearby tree. No one could see it, but it was a silhouette of a boy.

He was leaning on the tree watching them, mainly Ash and Max. He smiled at their antics. Taking a deep breath in and out, he watched the sun blaze through the orange leaves onto his face. He had dark brown eyes and black hair that shined on any form of light. Enjoying the scenery, he didn't however fail to catch sight of a corphish making its way away from their position.

Skitty finished her share of food, was busy cleaning herself, noticing Corphish's shining shell, she ended up wanting to play with the crustacean.

"Nyah nyah! (I'm gonna get you krabby!)" the small pokemon spoke. "Cor Corphish Cor! (You can try! Come and catch me!)" the crab said. Skitty attempted to take a little jump to attack and give chase, the crab-like pokemon ended up scuffling. In small circles at first then practically all around.

The figure in the trees just watched them chase and chase. "Oh dear." he silently told himself. Of course he had pokemon of his own, but he didn't want to intervene the play. Of course those trainers had to keep track of their pokemon's safety. His are precious to him of course, but he doesn't let them do that...

as often. Suddenly the huge shadow that was encircling it's prey before ended up showing its face again. All the pokemon and friends looked up. Obviously nothing was seen due to the objects sheen, until it landed om front of Ash and the others just a few yards away.

"What's that?" Ash said. "Kshaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" the creature screamed. That screech practically made all of the group hold their ears. The light faded and it turned out to be a skarmory. "Wow a skarmory!" Max yelled with glee. "What's it doing out here?" May thought. The Pokemon just tilted its head to the right and just saw them talking.

"I think this skarmory is friendly. Unlike the others we've seen, this one isn't hostile." "Kshaaa! Kshaaa!" the steel bird uttered. "Pika Pi!" the yellow mouse spoke scurrying over to the bird. The others wanted to go along and interact with the bird so they did so.

Just the minute corphish and skitty moved the chase to the direct group of Pokemon, they ended up falling down a hole. The trainers ended up looking at them in shock. A huge net ended up coming from the sky, and they could hear laughs. "Who could that be?" May asked. "Prepare for trouble at a high fast paced!"

As the voices spoke the net started rising with all the Pokemon, even the skarmory. It was evident that they were trying their best to break free, without any victory. The silhouette looked up at the cat like shaped hot air balloon. The voices speaking were a man, woman and nearing the end, an odd voice. "Jessie!" "James!" "And Meowth that's a name!" the cat Pokemon started. They finished, what he presumes to be their motto, and a wobuffet, coming out of nowhere going "Wobuffet!".

"Team Rocket! Give us back our Pokemon!" Ash demanded.

"Oh waa waa waa! Give us back our Pokemon! Dream on twerp!" Jessie stated. "Now with all of their Pokemon with us, the boss is sure to be happy and give us a raise!" James said. "More than a raise! He's sure likely to give us more!" the meowth laughed. "Give them back!" Brock demanded. "They aren't yours!" May also said with anger. "I think not. Too ta loo!" Jessie said, smirking with ease.

"So long! Thanks for the Pokemon!" Meowth said one last time.

Of course there escape would have been fast. The weather was fine after all. Sunny, cool, a little windy and green smog that engulfed the balloon.

"What is that?" May asked. "Hey what's going on? The weather man said sunny and clear, not cloudy and foggy!" James grumbled. All of a sudden a bursting slice of air ended up slicing the rope leading to the net. The trio in the balloon watched as the bag ended up unravelling the bag, letting the pokemon run free. "Our loot!" the Meowth said grumbling.

"Who did that? None of our pokemon were even free." Brock said quesitoning the situation.

"Are all three of you going to keep rambling?" a sudden voice popped out. Everyone was dumbfounded at the sudden voice they never heard of before. The 'smoke' had started to dissipate. Looking to their lefts and rights they spotted a child standing with a hand on his hips. A Pokemon was flying next to him. It had four wings.

The first distinguishing detail they spotted was brown eyes, black hair, blue shirt with white stars, blue shorts, and green shoes. The flying Pokemon next to him was... a Crobat. "kersh! Kersh!" the bat chirped. "Grrrrrr so you're the one who let our loot go! Seviper, poison sting!" she said throwing her poke ball. The snake popped out, and just as it's trainer said it let out a barrage of poison sting.

All were aimed at crobat, and the child! However this didn't worry him one bit. "Move out of the way!" "Hurry!" the shrieks from May and Max were heard. He didn't listen at all. Watching each little barb make its way, he moved just a little for it not to hit. Crobat had the speed of a Raikou dodging with ease. They all watched mouths agape at him. "How did he dodge that?! They were sent right at him! Seviper poison tail!".

With that, the snake jumped high into the air its tail turning purple aiming at the child. His expression never changed one bit, determination in his eyes. Before Seviper even landed a hit, Crobat jumped in the way. "Wing attack." one command and the bat's wings started glowing brightly, growing almost. "Kershcke!" it yelled. Faster than Seviper, it smacked the snake hard enough for it to go flying back to team rocket. It fainted, and Jessie knew it. "Why you!" "Go cacnea!" James yelled throwing out a prickly Pokemon.

"Cac Cacnea!" the grass type shouted. "Air slash." the child uttered. All four wings of the crobat started glowing again, however this time it made an x shape causing it to soar at the cacnea. The cacnea blew back, slamming into James, causing the spines to pinch him everywhere.

"This dude is good!" Meowth said. "I think we should finish this. Pikachu! Thunder-" "Use wing slash." the child said once more. Crobat started to glow all over, making it spin flying at team rocket's balloon. Despite their screams, the bat Pokemon made a U-turn as fast as it made it from the child to the balloon's engine and back.

"Missed us!" Jessie mocked. A small twinkle was shown from the motor and it exploded. "We were so close too!" "Maybe we should have things as surveillance before taking their pokemon." "I don't care, I'm just waiting for a soft landing!" "We're blasting off again! Wobuffet!" making a twinkle appear in the sky.

"You did excellent Crobat. Nice job." the child said receiving some cuddles from his Crobat. The other Pokemon ended up running back to their trainers happy that the ordeal was over. "Wow! He took them down with just a few blows!" Max said petting marshtomp. Ash petted Max's own hair, causing him to blush a faint pink.

"Hey kid!" Ash said making his way to the child. His attention was at first watching Max's reaction to Ash petting his hair, snapped to watching him walk towards him.

"Your Crobat is really strong! Great job! I'm Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town! I'm exploring the Hoenn regions with my friends! What's your name?" he said lending out a hand. The child made a small 'oh' sound smiling at him. Crobat shrugged at Ash's response to it, and the child took his hand. "William. William Cantiose." he said smiling to him.
