A/N – I often wonder what would happen if the characters from those three met. They all have different personalities and relationships with the different counterparts. This fic will only include first and second gen characters because I've yet to play third gen very far in the game. Sapphire and Ruby manga characters may be included as a comparison to May and the virtually nonexistent Brendon. In the manga universe, this takes place somewhere after Red, Yellow, Green, Blue, and Silver were un- "statue-ified".

Summary - When people think of Pokemon, they tend to think of the anime, the manga, or the game. What happens when characters from all three are forced to meet under strange circumstances?

A blue haired girl strolled through the Ilex forest in the middle of a cool starry night. She listened, relaxed by the sound of bug Pokemon buzzing and chirping a night serenade. Next to her walked a slightly taller, red haired boy. Though his faced look rough, his eyes held a slight gentleness to them. The two continued to walk quietly into the forest, but the farther they went on, the more queer things seemed to be. The blue haired girl took notice of this and, gradually, she began to tense, looking back.

"Kris, is something wrong?" asked the boy, concerned for his friend.

"Something is seriously wrong here," she said anxiously. "We've never been here before." This confused, the boy. Wasn't it good that they hadn't been wandering around in circles? He asked her just that. Kris shook her head. "That's not what I meant. We've been through this entire forest countless times before, but never have we been in this area."

"How do you know we've just never been in these parts before?"

Kris looked at him sadly. "Please Kamon, you have to believe me."

Kamon shook his head. She wasn't normally one to worry about things, or at least show it unless it was of the utmost importance. He also started to see what she meant. They had been in this forest countless times when they were younger and with the way they had been going, they should have reached the exist towards Route 34 by now.

"Alright, I believe you," he said looking into her eyes. She smiled back at him, alleviated that he didn't think she was crazy. "So where do you think we are?" he asked her, now rather curious himself.

"I don't know," she responded, "but something tells me that we'll find out soon enough."

As those two were discussing these curious events, a trio had been wandering around in their own forest that night. In this group were a boy and girl who closely resembled our previously mentioned duo and another boy, black haired, wearing a white and yellow cap with goggles. The yellow-capped boy walked backwards holding a pool cue against his neck, the girl reprimanded him angrily, and the other boy sighed, exasperated.

"Stop fooling around, Gold!" yelled the girl, quite obviously annoyed. "Professor Oak sent us to find out what was sending out that odd signal on our Pokedex. We should at least pretend we're working."

"Aww, Crystal, you're no fun," he replied chuckling. "Besides," he started justifying himself, "it seems like we're closing in on whatever it is." Crystal sighed. It was true. The beeping noise was quickening in pace and there was no other explanation. The other Pokedex holders were in known locations, far from the Ilex forest.

"Let's just hurry up so that we can get this over with," said the other boy. He was tired of their bickering and would have liked nothing better that to be with a certain brown haired girl.

"Silver's right," said Crystal. "Being here in the middle of the night is really creepy."

"You can grab onto my arm if you're scared," said Gold somewhat hopefully. Crystal glared, punched him, and stormed off, towards the mysterious signal.

"Smooth," Silver grinned.

"Aw, shut up."

They progressed farther until they came across a large cave-like opening. "This is strange," Crystal wondered aloud. "The Pokedex is telling us here, but this area isn't even marked on the map."

"Why don't we call it Mount Gold then? Silver's already go one named after him," Gold replied sniggering.

"I'm calling Professor Oak. Something is up here." Crystal worriedly dialed him on her Pokegear. After a few moments of Uh-hu's, yeah's, okay's, and alright's, Crystal hung up. "He said we should come back in the morning. He doesn't want anyone to get hurt or lost, especially at this time of night."

"What? Come on! That's boring!" yelled Gold. "We're old enough to take care of ourselves. Let's go Silver," he went on. He dragged Silver along before even finishing his sentence.

The cave was stereotypical in that it was cold, dark, damp, and mysterious, just like every other cave you read about. The trio walked so deep into it so that after looking back you could no longer see the exit or the light emitted from it. They held out flashlights.

"L-look you guys, I-I really th-think we should go back." Crystal's voice trembled and uncertainty was etched on her face.

"Come on, Gold. We've gone far enough," Silver agreed sternly. He wasn't sure why, but Crystal made him think of Blue.

"Yeah, there's nothing here. Alright guys, let's – WAIT!" Gold was about to agree when he saw a faint light. "We're here! May as well check t out so we don't have to come back tomorrow."

Crystal and Silver looked at one another. They sighed and went along, for they were curious as well. Once they got to the end they saw that it was nothing more than – "The forest?! It was nothing but a freakin' tunnel!

"You satisfied, Gold? Can we go back now?" asked Silver impatiently.

"Hold on, Silver. We just got to the end. We don't want to waste our efforts now that we're here."

"Hah!" yelled Gold triumphantly. "Now you're seeing my was, Crys! Let's go!"

Silver followed reluctantly. Ominously, as they all stepped out into the open, their Pokedex's stopped beeping. All was quiet.

"Kenta! Hurry up! Professor Elm won't be too happy if we'll be late!"

"That's right, Kenta. My dad won't be too happy with us. Why the heck are we taking this 'shortcut' anyways?"

Kenta looked almost identical to Gold, except for he fact that he had no goggles or pool cue, and had longer "bangs". "Well, I was the only one who had an idea to get there so sorry!"

"Don't worry, Kenta. We're just saying this to bug you," said the girl. She looked just like the other two girls, but had a more immature girliness to her.

"Thanks, Marina," Kenta replied, sarcasm dripping from his voice.

"You're welcome!"

"Oi, if you two are done, can we hurry it up?" The second boy had an appearance quite similar to Professor Elm, making their relation quite apparent.

"You don't have to be so uptight Junichi-kun!" Marina said smiling. "Your dad won't mind. "

"Okay, Marina-chan!" he replied, hearts in his eyes. The three of them walked forward, not realizing what was in store for them.

Kris sensed something behind them. It was too large to be a Pokemon that could be found in the forest. Kris had trained her senses well and could tell that the footsteps behind her were too heavy to be one of the typical Ilex forest residents. They were all bug Pokemon. She sensed it coming up to them quickly so she spun around quickly and punched at the air.

"AH!" a voice yelled out in surprise. "You don't need to be so violent, Kris."

"Oh! Hiro! What are you doing here?" Hiro, as you can probably guess looked similar to Gold and Jimmy, short "bangs" and with out goggles or a pool cue. He had fallen to the ground in surprise.

"I'm sorry. Here." Kris extended her hand to help him up. Hiro took her hand and smirked. He grabbed her hand and attempted to pull her down with him. Kamon, noticing this, grabbed her by the waist and pulled. Instead of Kris falling on top of him, as he planned, Hiro was yanked up violently, straining his arm. Kris was oblivious to what had happened. "Thanks, Kamon. I thought was about to fall," she said innocently. Kamon nodded at Kris. Once she had turned around, he smirked at Hiro who was rubbing his arm. Hiro "humphed" in return.

Without being asked, Hiro decided to join the party. He used the pretenses of boredom in order to travel with Kris.

Kris took no notice of this, but stopped. "Hiro, how long have you been following us?"

"What? Uh, for a while I guess. Why?" he asked confused.

"Have you noticed something strange?" Kris hoped he had noticed that something had been going on as well.

"Nope, sorry." Kris let out a dejected sigh and thought it better off not to inform him just yet. Just as she turned to continue forward, Kris smacked herself against something or rather someone.

"Oh, I'm terribly sorry!" cried a voice. "Are you okay?"

"Don't worry I'm - !" Kris cut herself off as she looked up into quite a shocking sight.

A/N Whee! That was fun. You can probably figure out what will happen next. If you're wondering why the anime counterparts got such a little part, it's because I don't care much for them, and there isn't much for me to go on in the first place. Please leave constructive criticism. If you're going to bother flame me, please not that I use flames to roast my marshmallows. Thank You.
