Disclaimer: I do not own Pokemon or most stuff in this story. This story is about a young boy traveling through Kanto after all the gym leaders have retired and there are now new gyms.
Prologue
The land of Kanto has changed now, due to the fact that no one has been able to live long enough to run a gym forever. New gym leaders and elite four members are now being signed in.
"All gym leaders this way!" shouted Ash, wizened by age but still tough.
All the gym leaders went towards Ash and applied for the gyms they were going to run. They had now changed the themes to match the ones of the planets. (I included Pluto to make it eight but I know Pluto isn't a planet now). Most gym leaders to-be were pretty straight forward. Ari, daughter of Falkner in Johto, was going to take over the first gym, and the Mercury badge. Next, Agi, daughter of Agatha signed up for the second gym and the Venus badge. She was followed by Flame, Julie, Kang, Oceano, and Lance, the son of the Lance who was in the Elite 4. Lastly, there was only one gym left untaken. This was the Uranus badge, which was finally chosen by someone who chose not to give her name.
"Now all of the gym leaders should go back to their respective gyms and get ready for any challengers," said Ash. He himself took out his Pidgeot and flew back to Pallet town.
