Hey guys. Well lately I've been watching Pokemon season 16 and when Dawn left I thought: Wouldn't it have been more heartwarming and funny if Ash battled Dawn with Pikachu, but Dawn battled with Buneary instead? Trust me, it will be way better if I were to tell the story then say it over a forum. And, for a warning, I might miss spell some stuff, but the story is still able to be read.

Disclaimer: Buneary, Pikachu and the rest of anything Pokemon Does NOT belong to me.

Also, I know that some of these moves can't be learned naturally, but some of the moves Buneary has in the series (for example: Ice Beam) can only be learned to it by TM's, breeding, and tutoring. So in a way, I'm making this story based on the show's move learning logic, if that makes any since.

"We'll, we better be going to." Dawn just told Ash, Iris, and Cilian the bad news that she and her pokemon had to leave soon.

"What!? But Dawn, wait! I never got to have a Pokemon battle with you!" Ash pleaded for Dawn to stay, at least long enough to have a Pokemon battle.

"We didn't?" She thought back to everything that's happened while she was here.

"Yeah! You battled Iris and Cilian, but not me!" Ash wanted to see how much better Dawn got while Ash was in Unova.

Dawn thought it over for a moment then remembered a deal she made with one of her Pokemon the next time they all met Ash.

/Flashback/

"Wow Buneary! That's your third new move this week! You sure are learning a lot of them!" Dawn was amazed at how Buneary learned so many Pokemon moves so quickly. Even though Dawn couldn't think of how to put all of them into use in a Pokemon Contest, she was still glad that Buneary was learning so fast. What did make her wonder was, why she was learning moves so much faster then the rest of her Pokemon.

"Buneary Bun! Bu Neary, Buneary Bun Bu!" (Thanks Dawn! I hope Pika likes them too!) Upon saying the name she came up for her crush, she started daydreaming again. After she finished her daydream, she tried to hide her face in her fluffy fur, but upon seeing this, Dawn knew exactly why Buneary's been training so hard.

"So that's why you've been training so hard! You want to show Pikachu how much stronger you've gotten since we left huh?"

When Buneary heard Dawn figure it out she blushed and hide even more, proving Dawn right. Then Dawn got an idea. She got low enough where she and Buneary were eye to eye, so she could tell Buneary something.

"You know, were planning on going to Unova to surprise Ash and show him how much stronger we've gotten."

Buneary looked up at Dawn because she completely forgot about that! She was going to see Pikachu, and this time, she was finally going to live her fantasy. She was finally going to get her Pika For sure this time.

"How about this, if you promise your going to try your best at the tournament and not be so shy around him, I'll help you win over Pikachu." Buneary rose an eyebrow, wondering 'how in the name of Arceus is she was gonna do that?'

Luckily, Dawn saw how Buneary was confused and started whispering into Buneary's ear, filling Buneary in on her plan. When she was finished Buneary was so happy she hugged the life out of her, knowing this plan would have to work for sure.
