Chapter 1:

Hatred. That was all he felt as he glared at his opponent. His opponent merely smirked as he commanded "Ursaring, Hyper Beam." "Noooo!" Ash yelled as he watched his faithful starter attempt to dodge the powerful attack, only to be engulfed by it. When the attack ended, Pikachu was lying on the ground motionless, covered with severe wounds. "Pikachu is unable to battle, Ursaring is the winner. The victor of this match is Paul of Sinnoh!" The referee's voice cut through his state of shock, and as Ash walked out to pick up Pikachu, Paul returned his Ursaring and strode off without a word. He knew Pikachu would not be battling anytime soon.

Ash had sprinted to the pokemon centre as fast as he could, and begged Nurse Joy to help Pikachu. She had been alarmed at the state that Pikachu was in, and brought him to the emergency room for immediate treatment. Ash sat outside, still in shock. He had been utterly demolished by Paul, and it seemed that Paul didn't even try. He gritted his teeth as he remembered how easily he had lost. "Why am I so weak? Paul's only a trainer for 2 years, but he could beat me so easily!" Ash wondered. Just then, Nurse Joy bought Pikachu out and bought him into another room to rest. "How is he?" Ash asked as Nurse Joy walked out. "He will live, but he will need to rest for at least a day before he can leave, and I recommend that he does not battle for at least a week after he leaves" Nurse Joy said before leaving to tend to other pokemon. Ash stared at Pikachu, mentally punishing himself for allowing Pikachu to be in this kind of state. "...Please wake up and be okay, Pikachu..." Ash mumbled before he fell asleep next to him.
The next day, Pikachu woke up, wondering where he was. He turned around to see Ash sleeping next to him. "Pika?" Pikachu uttered. "What' Ash doing? And why am I in the Pokemon Centre?" He wondered, before remembering what had happened during the match. He winced at the memory, then proceeded to wake up Ash in his favorite way.
A good'o fashioned thunderbolt.
2 seconds later, a smoking Ash stood up and smiled at Pikachu. "Good morning!"He grinned and picked up Pikachu and placing him onto his shoulder. Pikachu nuzzled him, making him laugh. He walked out of the room, and went to his room. When he opened the door, he was shocked to see it empty, with only a note. When he picked it up, he started shaking with shock and fury. The note read:

Ash,
We are going back to Kanto now. You sucked at the last battle, no other way of putting it. Don't come near us anymore, you will probably only bring us attention that we don't want. Also, you bring trouble everywhere you go. We treasure our lives, so don't ever come to us again!
Brock

Ash was hurt beyond believe. He was so angry, his aura, which haven't been active for over a year, appeared around him, scaring Pikachu. "Pikapi, PikaPikachu!" Pikachu cried, trying to calm Ash down. Ash took a deep breath, calming down, before smiling at Pikachu. "Thanks Pikachu, I needed that." Ash muttered as he crumpled up and threw the note into the rubbish bin. "Time to do some training Pikachu!" Ash smiled. Pikachu let out a cry of joy and leapt down from his shoulder. "Wait, Pi, not here!" Ash laughed as Pikachu rubbed his head in embarrassment. As they ran to the training ground behind the Pokemon Centre, Ash was deep in thought. He wondered what was the best way to become stronger. He stopped suddenly as a stray thought crossed his mind. Rota! The last place where he used his aura, and a place where many strong trainers, as well as wild pokemon stayed. Not to mention, it was also where Mew lived! He had no doubt that Mew, or Mewtwo would help him in his training. "Pikachu, what do you think about going back to Rota to train?" Pikachu thought about it before nodding his head. " That settles it then, we'll go to Rota as soon as possible!"Ash cheered as he ran back to his room to pack.
Soon, they would be on their way to Rota.
