'The Unova region huh, I wonder what type of new pokemon are there, you excited buddy?' A certain raven hair teen ask his starter pokemon, his starter pokemon nodded and cried its name in response.
'Hmm I thought so.' The raven haired teen said to himself while smiling, he wore a blue and white hoodie with a cap on his messy jet black hair. His cap is a white cap with a blue pokeball symbol in front of it. They are currently on a plane that is soaring to the Unova region from Kanto. The raven hair teen sighed, how long would this take?
'Ash dear.' The teen known as Ash, turned his attention to his mother. She is a stunning woman with auburn hair and had a voluptuous figure. She is known as Delia Ketchum, the mother of Ash Ketchum.
'What is it mom?' His starter known as a pikachu was looking at his trainer's mom.
'Have you packed everything you need for Unova?' Ash nodded, clothes, sleeping bag, snacks, pokedex and of course-
'How about your you-know-what?' Ash face palmed, arceus he is 15 now and his mother still treats him as a child.
'Yes mom I did packed my you-know-what.' Pikachu snickered at his trainer, before it turned its attention to the window. The darkening grey clouds were around the aircraft, thunder boomed and lightning flashed. But something about this 'storm' seems odd. It seems unnatural, he glared at the dark clouds.
'I'm just worried about you that's all.…..Ash, I'll always be proud of you no matter what.' Delia said while hugging her son, Ash hugged back and enjoyed the warm hug. However the hug was interrupted by a certain professor.
'Well my boy, we are almost at the Unova region. You excited?' Ash nodded, of course he is. He looked at pikachu, he is sparkling its red pouches and growled at the dark clouds.
'What's wrong pikachu?' Ash looked at the clouds, he frowned at the darkening clouds. Lately he have been training his pokemon immensely but that also includes training his own powers, aura. He could feel the power behind the darkening clouds, it was very powerful. Too powerful in fact.
'Pikachu' Pikachu used its paw and pointed at the clouds, earning the attention of Delia and the professor, professor Oak.
'I think pikachu sense something, is that right pikachu?' Professor Oak ask, pokemon can sense things that humans cannot sense. The changes of weather, natural disasters and many more natural phenomenon.
'Is probably nothing pikachu, it just a normal thunderstorm.' Said the ever happy and cheerful Delia Ketchum, but Ash knew that this isn't a normal thunderstorm. His thoughts were interrupted by the PA system.
'Ladies and gentlemen this is the captain speaking, we'll be arriving at the UTA ( Unova international airport) shortly. The weather in Unova maybe gloomy for now but it would clear up in a few minutes. Thank you for flying with us, we wished you to have a nice day and we hoped to see you again.' Ash looked at the thunderclouds again, it was- gone?
'Huh guess it dispersed faster than the captain estimated.' Ash thought to himself, pikachu was no longer sparkling. He perched on Ash's shoulder.
'Ready buddy?' Pikachu smiled, he is always ready. Few minutes later the plane reached the UTA and Ash was practically bursting in excitement.
'Now Ash, I have a colleague of mine. She is also a professor, she distribute the Unova starters to new trainers. She is suppose to pick us up. Let's wait for her here.' Professor Oak told the young trainer, Ash nodded. He learned that being reckless and charged in without thinking was very immature of him.
'Professor Oak!' A female voice shouted out, she ran towards the group.
'She is a professor? She is around mom's age. Oh well looks can be deceiving anyway.' Ash thought to himself mentally.
'Ash, Delia. Meet professor Juniper, she may look young but she is also a very successful pokemon researcher like me.' Professor said while shaking professor Juniper's hand.
'Pleasure to meet you.' Delia shook her hand.
'Likewise.' She turned to Ash.
'You must be Ash, professor Oak told me so many wonderful things about you.' Ash scratched the back of his head.
'Really well not really I mean-' Pikachu sighed, his trainer could be too modest sometimes.
'Well a pleasure meeting you all. Well let's go to my car, we can talk more on the way back.' They nodded and got on to professor Juniper's car. Ash was looking at the now clear sky.
'That thundercloud didn't seem natural.' Ash thought to himself, he remembered during when the weather trio Articuno, zapdos and moltres were fighting each other, the wearther went crazy. Zapdos summoned many thunderclouds around the world, could it be the work of zapdos?
'Only a legendary can have so much power.' Ash thought to himself, he decided to ask professor Juniper is there any legendaries that was able to summon thunderclouds in Unova.
'Professor Juniper, is there any chance that a pokemon can summon darkening thunderclouds and powerful thunderstorms in Unova?' He decided to use pokemon instead of legendaries.
'Hmm no well, the legendary zekrom and the legendary thudurus can.' But thudurus is asleep now so only zekrom can do that. Why did you ask.' Professor Oak suddenly smacked his forehead.
'Of course! That make sense, Aurea just now when we were on that plane, Ash's pikachu sensed something wrong about the thunderclouds that was surrounding us. It must be the work of a legendary it all make sense.' Professor Oak said while going into his crazy mode. Ash and Delia looked at him with a sweatdropped, pikachu however was not amused. Why did the legendary zekrom was surrounding them? While Professor Juniper and Professor Oak was talking about Zekrom, Ash was thinking about strategies for his pokemon battles. When they reached Proffesor Juniper's lab, Ash saw many pokemon at the ranch.
'Gracious sake' Ash said out loud, he walked inside the lab. He put his backpack on a table and looked around. This place looks like professor Oak's.
'Well Ash this is my lab.' Professor Juniper told Ash, Ash nodded and saw 3 pokeballs on the table.
'Professor Juniper are these?-'
'Starter pokemon? Yes they are Ash, why don't you take a look at them.' Ash looked at professor Juniper with the 'Really' look.
'Yes go ahead Ash.' Proffesor Juniper said with a kind smile, she could tell Ash love pokemon very much. Pikachu jumped of his shoulder and looked the pokeballs. Ash call the pokemon out from their pokeballs.
The first pokemon revealed a grass snake like pokemon. It looks proud and confident. The second pokemon is a fire pig pokemon, it looked at Ash with a smile. The third pokemon is a water otter pokemon, it looks cute yet tough.
'Ash this are the Unova starter pokemon, snivy the grass starter. Tepig the fire starter and oshawott the water starter.' Ash nodded, he could tell each of them are very powerful in their own way. They were then recalled into their own pokeball.
'Professor Juniper!' A voice shouted out, Ash turned his attention to the source of the voice. It revealed 2 boys and 2 girls. Pikachu jumped on his trainer's shoulder.
'Ah Cheren, Trip, Bianca and Hilda! I forgotten that you are here to get your starter pokemon.' Professor Juniper said while scratching her head.
'Is alright professor, oh and who might you be.' Said a boy with glasses, he has jet-black hair like Ash's and have a blue coat with a white shirt with orange Y-shaped pattern. He seems very intelligent and intellectual.
'I'm Ash and I came from the Kanto region. This is my starter and my best friend pikachu.' Ash said calmly.
'Tch what is a kid from the boonies doing here?' Ash narrowed his eyes at a boy with dirty blonde hair, his has a orange jacket and a camera hung around his neck. Ash could instantly tell that he is another Gary.
'Trip don't be so rude.' Said girl with short blonde hair, she has a green beret on her head and she wore a long white dress with an orange V-neck top over the dress. Ash could see that her green eyes carried energeticness and kindness.
'Bianca is right Trip, can you be at least be nice for once?' Said a long dark brown hair girl with blue eyes. She wore a white tank shirt with a black waistcoat and a pair of denim shorts with white tears around it. She wore a white hat with a pink pokeball symbol on it.
'Those two girls look cute.' Ash thought to himself with a blush, finally after years of travelling and the 'talk' his mother, professor Oak and of course good o Brock. Ash finally learned that life is not just about pokemon battles, sure Misty, May and Dawn were cute and attractive but-
'Misty's temper is too hot to handle, May is dating Drew and Dawn is just a dear sister to me. Plus she has Kenny…or Paul, whoever she likes.' Ash thought to himself.
'Ash is it? Well I'm Hilda, this is Bianca' Said the girl with the denim shorts.
'Hi there!' said the girl with the green beret.
'I'm Cheren and he is Trip.' Cheren said while pushing his glasses up.
'Pleasure to meet you all.' Pikachu cried its name to greet them as well. Bianca squealed at the sight of the cute pokemon.
'Oh can we pet him pleaseeee.' Bianca gave Ash the lillipup eyes.
'Em sure you don't mind right buddy?" Pikachu nodded before Bianca crushed him with a bone crushing hug.
'Bianca you said pet him not crush him.' Cheren said with a sigh, Bianca immediately let pikachu go. Hilda walked and petted pikachu's head.
'Sorry pikachu.' Pikachu waved off, he has been crushed numerous time by females. Bianca approached and stroke pikachu's fur.
'Huh pikachu really likes to get pet by girls.' Ash thought with a smile, but then again who wouldn't? Trip on the other hand was busy taking pictures of Ash's pikachu.
'What are you doing?' Ash ask him politely, he doesn't want another annoying rival like Gary or Paul.
'I'm taking photos of a pikachu dumbass, they are rare in Unova.'
'Trip watch your language!' Professor Juniper shouted out, that kid need to show some manners.
'Well then now you all got acquainted with each other, you all now can choose your starter pokemon. I'm sorry Ash, I don't have a starter pokemon for you.' Professor Juniper said apologetically.
'Is alright professor, I already have the best starter I could ever ask for.' Ash scratched pikachu's chin. Everyone 'awe' everyone except Trip of course.
'Well what are you all waiting for?' Ash ask them, the soon to be trainers soon looked at each other. Cheren then ask professor Juniper.
'Professor there are only 3 pokeballs.' Professor Juniper smiled and took an extra one from the back.
'This extra one is a tepig, so there are 2 tepigs, 1 snivy and 1 oshawott.' Professor Juniper put the pokeball on the table.
'Well I think ladies should go first.' Cheren said while putting his hand on his chin. Trip rolled his eyes
'Well I choose tepig!' Hilda said while she called tepig from its pokeball. Tepig looked at its trainer and nuzzled her. Hilda laughed and nuzzled it back.
'Well I choose tepig as well, I always wanted one.' Bianca took the other tepig pokeball. She called it out and hugged it. Bianca's tepig cried happily.
'Oh I forget to mention that Hilda's tepig is female. Your tepig is male Bianca.' Hilda smiled and nodded, it was quite rare to get female starter pokemon.
'I choose oshawott.' Cheren said and called oshawott out, he look at cheren and hugged him. Cheren smiled and patted his head.
'Looks like the better and cooler pokemon is mine.' Trip called snivy out, snivy gave his trainer an arrogant smirk.
'Just like when Gary chose squirtle. Snivy is definitely perfect match for Trip.' Ash thought to himself mentally. He smiled when he saw Hilda, Cheren and Bianca are bonding with their pokemon, unlike Trip.
'Now these are your pokedex, Ash give me yours so I can upgrade it.' Ash gave professor Juniper his old pokedex and she upgraded it. She gave Hilda and Bianca pokedex that are pink and gave Cheren and Trip which are red.
'Now you are set.' Professor Juniper said with a smile, Delia and professor Oak who saw the whole thing decided to give them a word of advice.
'Now children please be careful out there, bond with your pokemon and never give up. Right Ash.' Professor Oak ask Ash, he smiled and nodded.
'Wait you are Samuel Oak! The legendary professor Oak.' Cheren said out loud.
'Yes I'm. Good luck to you all.' They nodded but before they can even move Delia said something.
'Wait! I think it is better that you all travel in groups, at least after you defeat the first gym. Your pokemon isn't that strong right now, at least when you travel in groups you can back each other up.' Delia said concernedly.
'Delia is right, is not really that safe. You all at least travel with 1 person.' Professor Juniper told the trainers. Ash and pikachu who was watching afar agreed, he didn't took his old pokemon with him. No he left them at the ranch, but they are doing training everyday with Charziard, sceptile, torterra and infernape guiding them. Totodile even evolved into croconaw and was quilava's sparing partner.
'Alright so let's split into groups of two.' Cheren suggested, then he remembered Ash.
'Ash how about you?' Ash smiled and declined Professor Oak decided to help him out.
'Ash here has went to many regions before he came to Unova. He can take care of himself.' Professor Oak said.
'Yes but I'm not familiar with Unova and I'm sure so are you all.' Since being stuck in a town, they didn't have the chance to see the world.
'Well Ash if you travel around so much perhaps you can teach us a few things.' Hilda said with a smile.
'Looks like I'm being a teacher again.' Ash whispered to himself, pikachu who have sensitive ears nodded.
'Sure wynaut?' Ash said and he took his backpack.
'So have you decided who will go with who?'
'Yes hmm, well we can all travel together.' Trip snorted he prefered to do things alone, he is a lone wolf.
'Well you all can travel together like babies, I'll travel by myself.' That's it, Ash decided to take down his ego.
'Hey Trip, want to battle with me? I mean I'm quite strong and all' Trip smirked, he can show he is stronger than Ash. And perhaps impress Hilda.
'You strong?! Hah alright, I'll battle you but don't cry to your mommy if you lose though.' Delia was about to punched Trip but Professor Juniper held her back. Cheren, Hilda and bianca went to the battlefield and sat on the sidelines.
'Trip would be totally destroyed.' Bianca said with tepig beside her.
'*sigh* doesn't he know that Ash can easily destroy him?' Hilda said while hugging tepig.
'Let's just watch and learn.' Cheren said with a smile.
'Go snivy.' Snivy jumped and looked at pikachu, Trip had already scanned his move set.
'Pikachu let's take down his ego.' Pikachu jumped and looked at snivy, even though snivy is a weak pokemon he knows that he can't underestimate him.
'Snivy use tackle!' Snivy was fast but pikachu was faster.
'Dodge to the side and smacked your tail on its face.' *smack* and snivy was rubbing its face.
'Grr use vine whip!' Snivy extended vines to ensnare pikachu.
'Pikachu use thunderbolt on the vines.' *Zap* the vines were electrocuted and Snivy was instantly knocked out.
'Snivy! Grr hmph.' Trip recalled his starter and left the lab without saying good bye. Ash shook his head, he should have know not to challenge a trainer that had went to many regions and had more experience like him. Then again is was HIM who ask Trip.
'Wow Ash you're so strong.' Hilda said with tepig on her lap. Ash scratched the back of his head and thanked her.
'I'm not strong, pikachu is.' He scratched pikachu's chin.
'Well I have decided, since Trip left to go on his own journey Ash will travel with Hilda while I'll travel with Bianca. Someone needs to keep Bianca in check.' Cheren said while looking at Bianca, she blushed.
'H-hey I'm not that bad.'
'Well then it's settled, Bianca let's go say good bye to our parents. You should too Hilda.' Cheren and Bianca left the lab.
'Well hello there Hilda I'm Ash's mom, Delia.' Delia decided to introduce herself to the girl.
'She seems nice and she is a beautiful girl, better than Misty. Shame May went for Drew and he sees Dawn as a little sister only' Delia thought to herself, his son never had a girlfriend before. Maybe this was his chance?
'You're Ash's mom?! Wow I guess I can see the resemblance.' Hilda looked at Delia then at Ash with a blush.
'Yes dear, but you can call me Delia. Ash you take good care of her okay?' Ash nodded, as long there is no evil crime organizations they'll be just fine.
'Oh who am I kidding, there are always an evil organization in every region Ash.' Ash thought to himself.
'Well then you should say good bye to your mother shouldn't you Hilda.' Professor Juniper told the young girl. She blinked and smiled.
'Yeah I should.' Hilda decided to let tepig out and hugged her.
'Mind that we come with you Hilda?' Delia ask, she would like to know the mother of whoever is traveling with his beloved and only son.
'Not at all.' Though she felt quite nervous, she wondered why? She led them to her house where they were greeted by a beautiful woman who looks like Hilda.
'Hi mom!' She said cheerfully, her mother smiled and noticed a handsome young man and a woman around her age next to her daughter.
'Oh who may you all be.' She ask politely.
'Ma'am my name is Ash, I will be travelling with you daughter.' Ash said nervously, he always was nervous around people he don't know.
'Oh I see and you are-' She ask Delia.
'Oh I'm Ash's mom, I'm planning to stay at Unova for sometime. Perhaps until Ash finishes the Unova league.' Ash didn't expect that but if she wants to stay at Unova for a long while then is fine by him.
'Oh well where are you planning to stay?' Hilda's mom ask politely.
'At professor Juniper's lab, professor Oak would go back to Kanto.'
'Well you could stay here at my house, I have an extra guest room. Plus it wouldn't be that boring for me now that Hilda is gone.' She said with a sad smile, Hilda frowned slightly and hugged her mother.
'Well if I don't want to be a burden-'
'Nonsense, a friend of Hilda's is a friend of mine. That include you too Ash.' Ash blushed and nodded.
'Well I go get my things mom.' Hilda went to her room and packed her things. Delia also went to packed her things. Leaving Ash alone with Hilda's mom.
'Ash please take great care of my daughter. If anything happens to her I couldn't-' Hilda's mom said while holding her hands together.
'-Don't worry ma'am, Hilda is in safe hands.' Pikachu cried its name out in agreement.
'Thank you Ash.' She hugged Ash which caught him off guard. She let him go and Hilda came down the stairs.
'I guess this is good bye mom.' Hilda said sadly, tepig nuzzled her mother. She hugged her mother, it was a sweet moment. Ash was doing the same think to his mom.
'Go get them Ash, and I expect you to have a girlfriend next time you come back.' Delia teased her son. Ash blushed, but it wouldn't be bad to have someone you can share your sadness and happiness to.
'Alright mom guess this is it.' Ash said as he let go of his mom, he looked at Hilda.
'Hilda dear this is a Xtransceiver, it is the newest model.' Hilda strapped the Xtransceiver on her wrist and thanked her mom.
'Wow thanks mom!' Hilda then walked with towards Ash.
'You ready Hilda? The world of pokemon will surely amazed you.' Ash said while looking at the horizon.
'Yes Ash I'm ready.' They bid their mom one last good bye and they walked outside of Nuvema town together, and so their journey begins.
Yeap this is me Kaelstrider guys and gals. So I'm doing Ash x Hilda as well but I can't update each story everyday so it most likely if Ash and Leaf is not updated than Ash and Hilda is updated(most likely sometimes I need to take a break), vice versa. So as for the Romance, unlike Ash and Leaf they don't know each other at all so it would take quite sometime to get to the romance but no rush right? And yes I will mix things up between games and the anime so don't be surprised. And as for what pokemon will they catch it would be a secret, and this is only a Ash and Hilda pairing only nothing else and no harem.
