LagomorphShipping fanfic. Dawn's Buneary has always had a thing for Ash's Pikachu and one day after she watches a battle between Pikachu and Dawn's Piplup, Buneary gets so excited she runs up to Pikachu and kisses him. He loses his temper and yells at her and even fires an Electro Ball at her. This causes Buneary to become heartbroken and she runs away from the group crying. Dawn tries to comfort Buneary, but she attacks her trainer and refuses to listen. Dawn mentions what happens to Ash and Brock, and Brock says Buneary is so attracted to Pikachu but she tends to come on too strongly just like he had with Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy up until recently. He explains this to Buneary as well, and explains that, well she may have feelings for Pikachu; she shouldn't smother him because it makes him feel uncomfortable. After this Buneary rejoins the group and apologizes to Pikachu for her actions. Pikachu understands and says he forgives her. He later apologizes for yelling at her and attacking her and she forgives him as well. After a while the two begin dating. Ash was visiting with Brock and Dawn because all his friends that he's currently traveling through the Kalos Region with are busy with family. Clemont and Bonnie get back home and tell Ash they're ready to resume travel. Ash knows about Buneary and Pikachu and decides to have Pikachu tell Buneary the news and see what she wants. Will Buneary be okay with Pikachu leaving or will she not want him to leave?

Ash is traveling in the Kalos Region with his friends Clemont, Bonnie, and Serena and the gang is currently in Lumiose City stopped at a lake for a lunch break. They all bring out their Pokémon to come and eat with them although Bonnie's brand new Fennekin and Serena's Fennekin are much more interested in racing one another.

Serena says, "I think it would be nice to race my Fennekin and yours."

Bonnie replies, "Yeah, although I'm pretty sure yours will be faster than mine."

Serena tells the two Fire Fox Pokémon, "Okay Bonnie and I will stand on the opposite ends of the field and whichever one gets to their trainer first wins."

Bonnie and Serena stand about a foot away from their Fennekin and the two Fennekin get ready to race.

Clemont is the referee for the race, "On your mark, get set, GO!"

The two Fennekin take off immediately and are pretty evenly matched as their trainers cheer them on. Just then Bonnie's Fennekin gets an extra bolt of energy because of Dedenne now cheering it on and it runs so fast, it almost knocks Serena's Fennekin over. It runs to Bonnie and jumps happily into her arms and begins licking her face as she giggles.

She exclaims, "Fennekin that tickles!"

Serena goes over to Bonnie and compliments her, "That was a job well done, Bonnie. Your Fennekin sure is quick."

The two Fennekin jump out of their trainers arms and begin doing flips. After a while everyone sits down and begins eating.

After the meals are finished Clemont reminds his little sister, "Remember, Bonnie, we're going away with dad for a few weeks to visit grandma and grandpa."

Bonnie replies, "Oh yeah, I forgot. Thanks for the reminder."

Ash asks, "You guys are going to visit your grandparents?"

Clemont notes, "Our grandfather's birthday is coming up in a week and we're going to visit him and our grandmother to celebrate."

Bonnie informs, "Our grandparents live in Undella Town in the Unova Region," she then asks Ash, "Did you ever visit Undella Town when you traveled in the Unova Region?"

Ash responds, "Yes I did visit Undella Town. I'm friends with the Sinnoh Region Champion, Cynthia, and she has a vacation home in Undella Town which is where my friends and I stayed and where I trained for the Unova League."

Clemont replies, "Wow that's so awesome that you're friends with the Sinnoh Region Champion."

Bonnie wonders, "Was the house nice?"

Ash replies, "Oh yeah it was really nice it was the perfect place for me to train."

Clemont informs, "Bonnie and I have a flight to Undella Town which will be leaving tomorrow afternoon."

Serena says, "Maybe you two should stay over at your house that way your father won't be looking for you a lot tomorrow."

Bonnie says to her brother, "Great idea I want daddy to meet my new Fennekin."

Clemont replies, "Okay maybe we should head there now."

Serena says, "I hope you have fun hanging out with your family."

Ash replies, "Yeah, and maybe you'll be able to catch some Unova Pokémon during your visit."

Bonnie exclaims, "That would be so cool!"

Clemont informs Bonnie, "There's going to be lots of Pokémon from Unova not able to be seen here so don't worry if you tend to get confused from time to time."

The four friends get ready to head to Clemont and Bonnie's dads. When they arrive their father's happy to see them and happy they're choosing to stay the night.

He tells them, "I've got your clothes and other amenities all packed. Your beds are all set for tonight as well."

Ash says to Clemont and Bonnie, "Take care you two and I'll see you again soon."

Serena says, "Bye hope you have a nice trip."

After dropping Clemont and Bonnie off, Ash and Serena continue traveling together.

Ash asks, "So what do you want to do while Clemont and Bonnie are away?"

Serena says, "Well we're not going to continue traveling without them, so I think I could stop by my house and visit my mom until they arrive back."

Ash says, "That sounds nice. I'm sure your mom will be happy to see you."

Serena asks, "What do you plan on doing during this time, Ash?"

Ash responds, "You know, I've been wanting to visit some of my other friends I travelled with in the past, so I'm gonna check in with them and see if any of them are up for a visit."

Serena replies, "I'm sure your old friends will be pleased to see you again. I know I sure was excited to see you when you first arrived here."

Ash and Serena continue walking and they arrive at the Pokémon center. Professor Sycamore comes up to them and they explain to him that Clemont and Bonnie are going to be visiting family in Undella Town and they want to wait for them to get back before starting to travel more.

Serena says, "I know my way home from here so I'm going to head off to visit my mother."

Ash replies, "Take care, Serena. I'll see you when we all meet up again."

Serena says, "Thanks, Ash. You take care as well. I hope one of your friends is free and you'll be able to visit them."

Serena leaves and Ash heads to where the video phones are located. First he tries contacting Misty at the Cerulean Gym.

Misty picks up and says shocked, "Ash haven't seen you in a long time!"

Ash replies, "Yeah I know. Right now I'm traveling in the Kalos Region with three other people. There's Serena, a childhood friend of mine, and Clemont and Bonnie, two siblings I met after I first arrived here."

Misty comments, "I'm glad you're making friends."

Ash states, "Clemont and Bonnie are going on a family trip to visit their grandparents so they can celebrate their grandfather's birthday."

Misty comments, "Oh family get-togethers are nice."

Ash questions, "Would you like it if Pikachu and I came up to visit you while our friends are away?"

Pikachu waves and says hi to Misty and smiles really wide.

Misty replies dejectedly, "Oh, Ash, it would be great to see you and Pikachu again, it's just, I've been so busy lately with battles at the gym, I hardly have time for anyone to come by and visit."

Ash replies, "Oh okay then. Thanks anyways, Misty."

Misty states, "I'm really sorry, Ash."

Ash replies, "It's alright. I'll just try asking one of my other friends. I have plenty of people I could ask."

Misty says, "Good luck, Ash."

Ash responds, "Thanks, Misty," he hangs up and asks Pikachu, "Who should I ask next you think, buddy?"

Pikachu thinks for a moment and then gets an idea and does an impression of May's Combusken.

Ash exclaims, "May and Max, yeah!"

He picks up the phone and contacts May and Max.

Max is the one who picks up and he is elated to see Ash and Pikachu.

Max asks excitedly, "Ash how have you and Pikachu been?"

Ash responds, "We've been doing great, Max thanks for asking. I was wondering if I could come by and visit you and May for a while."

Max questions, "What's the reason?"

Ash explains to Max the situation that's going on right now.

Max replies, "I see. Well, as awesome as it would be to have you and Pikachu visit again, unfortunately May is very busy with Pokémon Contests and she hardly gets that much free time with all the training and preparation she does."

Ash replies, "Oh okay. Thanks anyway, Max."

Max says, "Later, Ash, later, Pikachu."

Ash and Pikachu say their goodbyes to Max and Ash hangs up, again confused on whom to try and contact next. Just then he looks at Pikachu who is doing an imitation of Iris's Axew. Ash nods and picks up the phone to contact Iris.

Iris says, "Ash, Pikachu, what a surprise. Axew, it's Ash and Pikachu, come on out and say hi to them."

Axew pops out of Iris's long hair and waves delightedly to his pals who wave back to him just as delighted.

Iris asks Ash, "So how are you doing?"

Ash responds, "I'm doing just great. After getting back home I decided to come to the Kalos Region and compete here. I've already caught two Pokémon, a Froakie and a Fletchling. I've also won the Bug Badge which I got when I defeated the leader of the Santalune City Gym, and that person just happened to be Alexa's younger sister, Viola."

Iris praises Ash, "Wow sounds like things are going well so far."

Ash explains, "Viola beat me once but I managed to win the second time around."

Iris replies, "Well, it's awesome you were able to make a comeback."

Ash explains his current situation to Iris and says he wants to visit.

Iris replies, "Well, that would be great, Ash, unfortunately, I've been extremely busy learning about various Dragon types from the Johto Region from trainers here, and I really just want to continue and keep learning as much as I can. Maybe you could try and see if Cilan's up for a visit."

Ash replies, "Okay. Thanks for the idea. Hope things go well for you and Axew."

Iris states, "Thanks, same for you and Pikachu."

Ash hangs up and tries contacting Cilan. He explains his situation to Cilan, but gets the same response he's been getting.

At the end of the conversation Cilan reassures Ash, "I'm sure somebody will be able to visit with you, no need to worry."

When Ash hears Cilan say "no need to worry" an idea strikes him.

Ash states, "Thanks so much. Take care, Cilan."

Cilan responds, "You take care as well, Ash."

Ash hangs up and says to Pikachu, "I hope Dawn's not too busy right now, buddy."

Pikachu nods and agrees as Ash picks up the phone. The phone is answered by Brock who is visiting Dawn in Twinleaf Town.
