IMPORTANT NOTE: This story was originally Sheaon13's which was put up for adoption. Sheaon13 graciously let me adopt it and now I will be writing it and hopefully keep it at the standard set. I will be mixing this story up a bit though with Ash being different in some aspects but the same in some also. I'm not very knowledgeable on the Kalos region so sorry to disappoint anyone with that
Summary – After I lost in the Unova league, all my so called friends betrayed me and when I say all, I mean all of them. On the outside I appeared calm and collected but on the inside, I was having an aura outrage. I will be the very best or die trying. – Ash Ketchum
"Well we better get to the lab" I tell myself, remembering what happened up to this point.
I was betrayed by my friends after my amazing victory over the Unova league, wait a second, what victory? I didn't win. All my so called friends left me, well, all except my Pikachu, Buizel, Charizard, Bulbasaur, Corphish, Snivy, Quilava, Oshawott, Infernape, Sceptile, Bayleef, Totodile, Pignite, Staraptor, Snorlax, Butterfree, Pidgeot, and Lapras(who I got back)
I remember catching new pokemon which were a Magikarp(which evolved into a Gyarados), Absol (shiny), Riolu(the one from the hunter jay incident), Lucario(the one from the tree of begging), Mewtwo, Mew, Darkrai(he was very grateful to me), Latias(from Altomare), Azelf(which had taken a liking to me), Lugia(from the Orange islands incident), Dragonite(it was the one that use to be Iris's but because she abandoned me he abandoned her), Zekrom, Flareon, Jolteon, Vaporeon, Umbreon, Espeon, Leafeon, Glaceon, Eevee, shiny Ninetails, Salamence(it was hunter jay's but it ran away), Piplup, Blaziken(yes this is May's Blaziken because as soon as he heard that May was going to betray me he left her), Tyranitar(from the Silver conference in Johto) and Raichu.
Then the ones that evolved were Oshawott to Dewott, Snivy to Servine to Serperior, Bayleef to Meganium, Corphish to Crawduant, Totodile to Croconaw to Feraligatr, Pignite to Emboar, and Quilava to Typhlosion.
Though there were some that didn't want to evolve, those were Pikachu, Riolu, Buizel, and Bulbasaur.
I had finished a training session with them a while ago and we decided to go to Sinnoh and try out for the league there under a new name, that name was Cole Chambers, well I also had to go work at professor Rowan's lab for three months and today is the last day.
Now I have black messy hair spiked straight up about six inches high and short hair on the sides and back. I now have dark blue eyes thanks to my aura. I'm wearing a dark black t-shirt which clings to my toned body, wine red jeans, black runners with a strip of dark red on the top the width of the laces, gloves that are dark black.
Professor Rowan also removed my restriction limit so I can carry all my pokemon without them going to that traitor Oak's lab. Rowan also forged pokedex with my fake identity and he's the only one that knows the truth about my identity. Oh yeah I can also understand all pokemon now thanks to me mastering my aura abilities, well, almost mastering.
'Ash what's wrong?' Pikachu asked me as we got off the plane.
"It's just it's been a long time since we tried out for a league, huh?" I asked him.
'Yeah we haven't since the betrayal' Pikachu responded.
"Well I guess now we'll get to prove them all wrong" I told Pikachu.
"Even if it's under another name but the Pokémon stay the same" I added.
'That's right Ash!' Piplup shouted. You see, I got Piplup as my second starter to make it more believable that I came from Sinnoh, even though I already had Infernape, professor Rowan just wanted it to be much more believable. And besides, now I keep both Piplup and Pikachu out of their pokeballs because they don't like it.
"You know, I really like the new set up they have, and the league has become a tournament here where only the winner of the tournament can challenged the Elite four and champion. Man I can't wait to kick some traitor asses." I say more to myself than anything else.
"May, do you think we'll see that loser Ash?" a voice that could only belong to Max said to his elder sister. Max was a ten year old boy with black messy hair and black eyes. He wore blue jeans, a white t-shirt with a red pokeball symbol on it, white sneakers, and black square frame glasses. His Ralts, more than likely the one he was going to come back for, was on his shoulder.
"Well you're bound to see Ash at the league and when you do I'm going to take back my Blaziken that he stole" May said angrily. May was a light brown haired girl, her hair was now pulled into a long mid back length pony tail with her bangs pulled to her left side over that eye, with hazel eyes, and she was about fourteen. She wore a purple shirt with a light blue jacket over it, black capris, and white tennis shoes. She was about thirteen years old now.
"Yeah and my Dragonite as well" the purple headed freak known as Iris shouted. Iris had long purple hair pulled into two looped pony tails, like nurse joy wears her hair, with black eyes. She wore a peach coloured long sleeve shirt, dark blue shorts, and peach coloured sneakers. Her Axew was in a pokeball so I could only assume that he evolved. She was about seventeen years old, now.
"He didn't steal, them they left you for Ash" Max reasoned.
"No way, they would never do that!" May and Iris shouted in unison.
That's when Max turned to my direction.
"Ash is that you?!" Max shouts in shock earning angry looks from the girls behind him.
I shook my head and replied "No my name is Cole and I'm from Solaceon town, Sinnoh"
"Wait your from Sinnoh!?" a certain blunette named Dawn asked, well more like shouted. Dawn had dark blue hair that was put into ringlet curls with dark blue, almost black, eyes. She wore a light pink t-shirt with a white jacket over it, a white mini skirt, and hot pink rain boots. Her Piplup was by her side trying to make conversation with my Piplup.
"Yeah I am, why?" I ask with fake kindness but inside, I was pissed.
"I am too what was your starter pokemon?" Dawn asked out of curiosity.
"Well, I technically had two since me and Pikachu here have been together since he hatched from his egg, but he doesn't like pokeballs same with Piplup here who was also my starter, she was the one I got from professor Rowan" I replied.
"Wow you chose Piplup too?" Dawn asked her Piplup trying to talk to mine who was just choosing to ignore him and when he got to close, she attacked him with peck.
"Piplup!" I said in fake sternness, "I'm sorry it's just that Piplup doesn't really get along with other Piplups, she said that they all use to pick on her in the place she was born"
"What do you mean by she said?" Dawn asked
"Oh I'm sorry, I should have said sooner, I can understand pokemon" I explained then looked at the time.
"Oh no we're going to be late to see professor Rowan!" I shouted running down the street into the professor's lab.
"I'm sorry I'm late again, professor" I apologized to him.
"It's no problem, Cole, after all today is your last day, I bet Froakie will be sad, he doesn't trust any trainer but you especially after you trusted him enough to tell him some secret which I still can't figure out" Rowan sighed. Rowan was an older professor with short, grey, spiked hair as well as a medium beard.
"And you never will professor" I responded.
"Oh yeah Ash the trainer of Garchomp wants you to have him, since you and Garchomp are so close." The professor said with a smile.
"Wow really, I can take him with me?" I asked kindly.
"Of course" Professor Rowan replied.
"That's great, maybe I could take Froakie with me too if he wants?" I asked.
"That would be great if he wants!" rowan replied.
"Hey Garchomp guess what" I say with my voice full of happiness.
Switch to third person point of view.
"Hey isn't that the twerp?" a talking Meowth dressed like a researcher asked.
"Yeah I think it is and he's got Pikachu with him" A man with light blue, almost violet hair, replied. This man had purple eyes and wore a researchers outfit
"Don't get side-tracked out goal is to get that Garchomp, but then we'll also get that Pikachu too!" A dark pink haired woman with her hair pulled into her hat wearing a researcher's outfit said.
Back to first person
'Wait I really get to be your pokemon?' Garchomp asked me in surprise.
"Of course Garchomp, you know I wouldn't lie to you" I replied.
That's when Garchomp screeched in happiness, only to have some sort of collar attached to him.
Team rocket said their motto
"What's team rocket?" I ask pretending to be dense
"You should know what team rocket is by now you've explained it before, we're a group of bad guys that steal other people's pokemon, and we've been trying to steal your Pikachu for years!" Jesse explained. Jesse was in the researchers outfit but now she's not, she's in the white female team rocket outfit and her hair is pulled into a curve that almost touches her upper legs.
"I'm sorry but you must be confusing me with someone else my name is Cole Chambers, if that's any consolation" I replied.
"So your name isn't Ash Ketchum?" James asked. He was the male in the researchers outfit, but now he's wearing the white male team rocket uniform.
"No it's Cole, as I said before" I replied.
"Back to the plan at hand we've got Garchomp under our control now!" the talking Meowth said.
"Wow a talking Meowth" Professor Rowan says
"So he's actually talking, I thought he wasn't since I can understand poke speech and it sounds just like English" I said casually.
"As I was saying we can control Garchomp with a push of a button" Meowth said proudly then noticed the box was gone and that I had it in my hand.
"Good work Absol" I said to my friend "Now return" he went back inside his pokeball.
"Now let's get that collar off you" I say to Garchomp and pressed a button on it and the collar fell off.
'Thanks' He replied.
"I'm just glad you're okay" I told him.
"Hey we're still here!" team rocket demanded.
"Oh yeah, about that, Piplup hydro pump and send them flying" I said and immediately Piplup obeys sending team rocket 'blasting off again.'
"Hey Cole, when were you going to head out?"
"Soon, besides, I'm waiting to see if Froakie wants to come with me" I added, making sure Froakie heard me. He did because next thing I knew he trapped himself inside one of the empty pokeballs on my belt (that's all the belt was good for now that I had my backpack carrying my pokemon) and then I picked up the pokeball and put pokeball inside the backpack. Then I did the same to Garchomp's pokeball that the professor had given me, after returning Garchomp that is.
"Well now that, that's done, you should probably head out Cole" Rowan says with a smile.
"Yeah, I guess we're finally off, it's finally time for me to actually try and get badges. I'll prove them all wrong by becoming the best" I say before saying goodbye to Rowan and the Pokémon, ready to start my Sinnoh adventure again
