Character ages:
Ash-16

Ash has just earned the title of Pokémon Master and is headed back to Pallet to tell his mother in person. When he notices someone has been following him.
Ash: Who's there?!
Unknown: It's me
Unknown walks out of shadows revealing Richie
Ash: Why the heck are you stalking me?!
Richie: Well I don't really have anywhere to go.
Ash: What do you mean?
Richie: Well you see, when I was 5 I was separated from my brother and parents on a trip to Vermillion City. All I had was my wallet with about 30 dollars and a picture of them. After that I was left homeless in Vermillion. When I turned 10 I decided to start a Pokémon journey in hopes of finding my family but never did. Sparky and my other Pokémon were all I had.
Ash: Man you had it rough, can I see the picture?
Unknown to Ash but known to his Mother, Ash had a little brother who had disappeared.
Richie: Sure.
Richie shows Ash the picture.
Ash's mind: This picture looks so…familiar.
Ash: Well um I guess you can stay with us for a while.
Richie: Really, you mean it?!
Ash: Sure.
Ash and Richie soon arrive at the Ketchum residence greeted by .
Delia: Congratulations Ash! Oh but no matter what you'll always be my baby boy!
Ash blushes
Ash: um thanks mom, say is it ok if my friend Richie stays here for a while.
Delia: oh sure why not.
Richie notices a picture of
Ash and his parents with a boy with brown hair much like his and figures out it's the same that he had in his wallet.
Richie: Ash can I talk to you and your mom for a sec?
Ash: sure what is it?
Delia: What's the problem?
Richie: Mrs. Ketchum I think I may be you're son……
What will happen next… I don't know. Do You?
