A fifteen year old boy by the name of Ash Ketchum looked through his pokedex intently. He had gotten back his older pokemon that he had left behind and now had all of them, even larvitar. He had decided to pick out what pokemon he wanted to catch before he went to kalos. He had asked his pokemon which would join him in kalos then redoing the other regions. The ones that wanted to were pikachu, buizel, oshawott, charizard, swellow, snorlax, torkoal, primeape, krookodile, snivy, scraggy, infernape, corphish, pidgeot, larvitar, pignite, donphan, staraptor, gliscor, gible, quilava, squirtle, sceptile, bulbasaur, lapras, and bayleef. His other pokemon were more passive in nature and didn't like to battle as much as Ash did. They prefered to just laze around on the Oak ranch and didn't want to battle. Ash had asked the professor if he could rotate the pokemon he had, minus the ones that didn't want to leave the ranch, and Oak agreed. Anyway, Ash looked through the pokedex, writing down the ones he wanted to catch in kalos. He just the finished the pokemon he wanted to complete his team. They were: espurr, sylveon, umbreon, absol, mienfoo, mareep, riolu, furfrou, surskit, helioptile, phantump, rhyhorn, ralts(both male and female), skiddo, froakie, noibat, fletchling, furret, venipede, zubat, bagon, axew, spoink, seviper, lunatone, solrock, houndour, emolga, golette, makuhita, pachirisu, sableye, trapinch, goomy, ghastly, purrloin, poochyena, pawniard, murkrow, litwick, cubchoo, snover, vanillite, sneasel, aron, spinarak, zorua, shuppet, wigglytuff, gothita, spinda, teddiursa, ditto, swablu, deino, inkay, chespin, and dratini.
~Later~
"Here we are Kalos" Ash smiled, the pokemon he currently brought with him were buizel, staraptor, and pikachu. Though he wouldn't be switching pikachu out any time soon, meaning never. Ash slid down the railing of the stairs and landed perfectly on his feet. With his feet firmly on the ground Ash started walking towards Professor sycamore's lab. Well was until Ash heard a pokemon call for help, Ash rushed to see a furfrou hurt in some sort of trash that he had gotten into to look for something to eat as he looked pretty skinny. Ash quickly approached it and tried to help it.
"Fur" the pokemon growled at Ash before he noticed what he was doing. He was helping him. Why would a human help him?
"Don't worry I'll get you out of there" Ash stated with nothing but care in his eyes.
"Pika" the pikachu on his shoulder said in worry.
"Fur" the pokemon licked Ash's face as Ash got the trash off of his feet.
"I bet you'd like something to eat" Ash handed the pokemon some pokefood in boll he had made. That's another thing Ash had learned from Brock, how to make pokefood. The furfrou gobbled it down like no tomorrow.
"Hey do you mind if I get that dirt and grime off you fur?" Ash asked and the furfrou shook his head. Ash pulled out his grooming tools, another thing he loved to cary to take care of his pokemon. Ash brushed all the dirt and grime and tangles out of furfrou's fur gently.
"Oh so you're a furfrou?" Ash asked the pokemon with a smile once he finished.
"Fur" The pokemon nodded.
"Well would you like to come with us?" Ash asked him and furfrou tackled him to the ground, licking his face.
"I'll take that as a yes" Ash laughed before tapping a pokeball on his head.
"I caught a furfrou!" Ash cheered and it was followed by pikachu saying "Pi pikachu!"
"Wow, I've been trying to help that furfrou for a while now but it was just too scared to come near me" a blonde boy stated.
"Yeah my big brother was wanting to help him for a while" a blonde girl that looked about nine stated.
"Really?" Ash asked.
"Yeah and I'm just glad that furfrou found a good trainer, hey do you want to battle me with my bunnelby?" the boy asked.
"Sure! I'll ask furfrou if he wants to battle come out buddy!" Ash shouted, letting out his newly caught furfrou.
"Hey do you want to battle?" Ash asked and furfrou nodded, eager to show his new trainer what he could do. Soon they were on a battlefield ready to take each other on.
"I'm Clement and that's my sister Bonnie by the way" the blonde boy said before letting out bunnelby.
"I'm Ash" He stated befor furfrou took a battle stance.
"Bunnelby use mud shot" Clement ordered and three balls of dirt headed towards furfrou courtesy of bunnelby.
"Furfrou weave through that and use headbutt" Ash ordered and furfrou followed his orders, head glowing white before slamming his head into bunnelby's gut. Bunnelby flew back several feet but he got up again.
"Bunnelby use brick break!" Clement ordered and one of bunnelby's ears glowed white as he rushed towards furfrou.
"Jump to the side furfrou" Ash ordered and furfrou did so, effectively dodging the attack.
"Now use charge beam while he's close" Ash ordered and furfrou let loose a condensed beam of electricity at the bunnelby, effectively knocking him out.
"Bunnelby return, you were great" Clement stated as he called back his pokemon.
"That was awesome furfrou!" Ash cheered and pikachu did as well.
"Furfrou!" the pokemon cheered. Suddenly a cage sprung up around pikachu and he was captured by none other than team rocket.
~Que team rocket motto(not writing it)~
"You done?" Ash asked, bored and team rocket started to get mad.
"Good, pikachu iron tail!" Ash ordered and pikachu broke through the cage and rushed back to Ash.
"Now thunderbolt!" Ash shouted.
"Wobbuffet mirror coat!" Jesse ordered and the the electrical attack bounced off of wobbuffet and headed towards pikachu three times stronger.
"Froakie!" a blue frog pokemon stated, pushing pikachu out of the way and taking the hit himself.
"Oh no! Furfrou, use headbutt!" Ash ordered and his furfrou did just that, knocking wobbuffet into team rocket before sending them flying with thunderbolt from pikachu. Ash quickly picked up froakie and started to run.
"Come on pikachu, furfrou, Clement, Bonnie, we have to get this froakie to the lab and quick" Ash stated and they rushed towards it with Ash looking at froakie worriedly. He wasn't paying any attention to anything else.
"Professor! Froakie is hurt!" Ash shouted once he rushed into the lab and the Professor's eyes widened, quickly taking froakie and giving him treatment.
~Scene change~
"Froakie is going to alright, right?" Ash asked looking intently at froakie.
"Don't worry he will be just fine thanks to you" the professor said.
"Chespin" the spiny nut pokemon stated in an attempt to see froakie. He was suddenly picked up by Ash so he could see.
"Ches?" the pokemon asked.
"You wanted to see how he was doing right?" Ash reminded him and chespin smiled and nodded, looking intently at froakie. If froakie was going with this trainer like he thought he was then he wanted to go too! He didn't want his best and only friend to leave him behind!
"Gar" a garchomp stated, looking at froakie as well.
"Hey garchomp, you wanted to see how froakie was doing right?" the professor asked and she nodded.
"Hey professor, can I ask you a question?" Ash stated.
"Yeah what is it?" the professor asked.
"Where is froakie's trainer" Ash said and the professor sighed.
"All of froakie previous trainers he abandoned because he didn't think they were right for him" the professor stated.
"Poor froakie" Ash stated looking at him intently and chespin knew that froakie would go with Ash at this point so he would too!
"Ches!" he stated pointing at a pokeball at Ash's belt.
"Looks like Chespin wants to go with you, no doubt froakie will too, so please take care of them both" the professor stated.
"You mean it Chespin?" Ash asked and he nodded, Ash tapped a pokeball on his head and caught him.
"I caught a Chespin!" Ash cheered then he let Chespin back out into his arms.
"Chespin" he stated as he continued to look at froakie. Suddenly staraptor popped out of his pokeball and he flew towards a round stone.
"I see I guess that's a staraptorite" the professor stated looking at the staraptor that Ash had.
"What's that?" Ash asked.
"It will allow your staraptor to mega evolve which is a temporary form of evolution and it needs three things. A keystone, a mega stone which is that staraptorite, and a strong bond between trainer and pokemon" The professor stated then he saw pikachu staring at a stone.
"That's the pikachuite I have, I couldn't believe it when I found it but pikachu is the only prevolution so far that has a mega evolution without fully evolving" the professor said.
"Really?" Ash asked and the professor nodded before suddenly they heard a pain filled cry from garchomp and they rushed towards it to see a collar around its neck hurting it as it flew off.
"Garchomp!" Ash shouted, chasing after it, hoping on staraptor as he flew under him, pikachu jumped on his shoulder as did froakie and Ash had returned chespin and furfrou. They flew to the top of prism tower after Garchomp. Pikachu was going to unleash an electrical attack on garchomp but Ash stopped him.
"Garchomp calm down so I can help you!" Ash pleaded and she was about to fall off the tower when froakie held her in place with his frubbles.
"Pikachu iron tail on that collar!" Ash ordered and pikachu did so, effectively getting it off. The ground suddenly gave way under pikachu and Ash and froakie dove after him. Luckily staraptor caught them all and landed on the ground.
"Star" he said worriedly.
"I'm fine staraptor" He smiled.
"Staraptor" He headbutted Ash gently in affection and Ash petted him.
~Scene change~
"Ash as a thank you for saving garchomp I want you to have both the pikachuite and the staraptorite as well as the keystone I have" the professor stated giving him a collar for both pikachu and staraptor and a braclet with the keystone in it. Ash put it on both of them and then returned staraptor and put on the keystone bracelet.
"Thank you professor I'll take good care of it" Ash swore and froakie nudged a pokeball and Ash knew what he wanted. He caught a froakie and for once Ash was glad that his carry limit was upgraded to twelve.
