"Pokémon Attack"
'Thoughts'
"Telepathy"
I do not own the Three OCs Dean, Chloe, and Zep, those belong to The Electric Dragon Rider, however, the OC John does belong me. I'm going to let you guys pick John's team, suggest six Pokemon for John to use in a review and I will pick the one I think John would be good with.
A man with untamed raven black hair that hung to his shoulders stood on a cliff watching the sunrise. His eyes were a soft light blue, he wore a short-sleeved black shirt that showed off his muscled arms, dark blue jeans, and dark blue sneakers.
"Hey bud," he said as the bushes behind him shook then revealed a small yellow mouse which climbed his way up the man's shoulder. The mouse said through telepathy, "You're thinking about that day again, weren't you?"
"Well I wasn't until you brought it up Pikachu," the man said looking at the mouse on his shoulder. The mouse chuckled and scratched the back of his head, "Sorry Ash." Ash scratches Pikachu under his chin and stares back out to the sunrise. As he watches the colors fade across the sky as he thinks back to that day, the day he got betrayed.
A 16-year old boy with wild raven black hair was walking down the path to his home town with his best friend upon his shoulder. "Well, we're finally home Pikachu," Ash says looking at his partner with a mix of defeat, sadness, and excitement in his eyes. "I can't wait to see everyone," Pikachu says excitedly at the thought of seeing all his friends again, both Pokémon and human. Ash chuckles at his friend, all the sadness and defeat leaving his eyes.
"Hey buddy," Ash looks at his Pokémon with a grin, "I'll race ya."
"Try to keep up slowpoke!" Pikachu yells as he jumps from Ash's shoulder and races towards the professors.
"Hey," Ash yells out while laughing, "get back here cheater!"
-X- Arriving at the Professors Lab
Ash runs up the steps of the porch to the lab panting trying to catch his breath
"What took you so long?" the yellow mouse asks mockingly curiously. Ash stands up and sends a playful glare at Pikachu, "Let's go say hi."
Pikachu nods and leaps onto Ash's shoulder, together they walk into the lab, "Hello? Professor are you here?" Ash calls out, hoping that Oak would be here.
"Ash my boy," Professor Oak walks around a corner and gives the trainer a hug, "How are you doing?" Ash then said, "I'm doing great professor, just wanted to stop by and say hi to you and my Pokémon before I go see mom." Professor Oak then said as they walked to the door to the field, "Well, let me tell you, they've been very anxious since they found out you were coming home." Ash chuckles, "Sounds just like them." They then reach the door to the field, and Ash walks out and yells out loudly, "I'M BACK!" Soon a rumbling sound is heard, and a huge dust cloud appears quickly making its way towards him, Ash chuckles before he gets tackled by his beloved Pokémon.
-X- After hanging with his Pokémon for a couple minutes
"Well, have fun, you guys!" Ash yells out as he makes his way towards his house while waving at his Pokémon who cheer and keep playing with each other.
"Man," Ash says scratching Pikachu chin, "I've sure missed them."
"Me too Ash, me too" Pikachu nods.
Ash and Pikachu reach the door of his house and as soon as Ash opens it, he is met with a bone crushing hug, "Mom… c-can't… breathe…" Ash manages to say.
"Sorry sweetie," A brown haired brown eyes women said, "I've just missed you, honey." Delia steps back aside and gestures Ash inside, "Your friends are here for you," she says leading Ash into a room where all his traveling companions were. Standing in the room Ash's closest friends. Brock, Misty, Tracey, May, Max, Dawn, Iris, Cilan, Clemont, Bonnie, and Serena all stood there smiling at him.
"Welcome home Ash," they all shouted in unison as they all ran forward and pulled him into a group hug. Ash smiled as he hugged his friends back, "Thanks guys, you have no idea how much I missed you." All his friend complimented him on the Kalos league (even though he didn't win).
"Ash!" Ash turned and saw a dark blue haired boy run out side before poking his head back through, "Come here, I want to show you something." Ash chuckles at Max's excitement and followed him outside, "What did you want to show me, Max?" Ash asked curiously as to what the younger boy wanted to show him. Max pulled out a Pokéball and said, "This, come on out!" Out came a small green lizard like creature, "Tree," it said looking at his trainer. "I got my starter, Pokémon Ash!" Max said happily holding his first Pokémon. Ash chuckled at the boy, "Congratulations Max, and you chose Treeko."
"Yup," Max said as he nodded his head, "I wanted to be like you, so I chose Treeko." Ash smiled brightly at him, "Well thanks, Max." Max smiled back at his idol.
"ASH!" Ash jerked forward and almost fell over but managed to catch himself. Max looked behind him and saw a girl maybe a year or so younger than him hugging onto Ash's back. The girl had blonde hair which was pulled into a side pony tail by a big orange button clip, she had big blue eyes which were filled with happiness and excitement. She had a brown shirt, with a black ribbon on the collar line. She had a white skirt over black tights the stopped just above her knees, and pink shoes, with a yellow hand bag around her shoulder. Ash chuckles once he realizes who is on his back and starts to run and jump around wildly. The girl on his back giggles as she gets a piggy back ride from Ash.
"Alright," he says laughing as he stops in front of Max, "can you please get off."
"Awe," she fake pouts, "I was having fun." Ash just chuckles and set her down, "Max this is the youngest of the people I traveled with through Kalos," Ash says introducing them, "Max this is Bonnie, Bonnie this is Max." Bonnie sticks out her hand, "Nice to meet you, Max," she says happily. Max shakes her hand, "N-nice to meet you to Bonnie," Max nervously says, and this just causes her to giggle which in turn makes him blush. Ash then said as he walked back into his house, "Well, why don't you guys get to know each other better, I'm going to go back inside." They nod and start talking about random things quickly becoming great friends.
-X- A few minutes earlier
"Alright guys," a tan man with squinty eyes said to a group of people, "we need to get him to quit." The group nodded, then a girl with short orange hair said, "And if he tries to get away, we use force if we have to." Everyone stared at her like she was crazy, "That wasn't part of the plan," a blonde-haired boy with glasses says. The orange hair girl sends him a hard glare, which causes him to gulp. The group knew this was the new plan. A honey-blonde hair girl then said quickly, "He's coming,", she had been watching a certain raven hair trainer and saw him coming inside. Everyone quickly sat down and acted natural, well mostly.
-X- Present time
"Hey guys," Ash said to his traveling companions as he came inside once more. They all put on fake smiles and all said something along the lines of hey, hi, and other things. But ash didn't notice the fake smiles but a certain yellow mouse on his shoulder had his suspicions, he didn't like the feeling he was getting from them. Brock was the first to speak and he said, "Ash, we need to talk to you." Curious, Ash said, "Ok, what's up Brock?" Ash sits down and looks at all his friends, Pikachu continues to sit on Ash's shoulder cautiously eyeing the group. Then May K. said, "Ash, we, um, well we, need to tell you, something." Ash starts to get nervous seeing the way his friends are acting, "Come one May, you guys can tell me anything." All of his friends were really nervous. Well, all except one, a certain orange haired girl. "JUST SAY IT," she yells at the group startling everyone. May then said, starting sweetly but quickly changing her attitude, "Ash, you need to give up on your dream of being a Pokémon Master, it's not going to happen."
Ash stared at her in utter shock, "W-what? D-do you all feel this way?" All his friends nod their heads, at that moment Ash felt his heart breaking. Pikachu was furious, his cheeks were sparking, just waiting for a reason to fry them. Ash then looked at his longest friend and said, "Brock?" Ash asked hopefully his longest friend believed in him. Brock then said angrily "You've almost killed me so many time Ash." One by one each of his friends said hurtful things destroying his heart. But when his childhood friend Serena said, "I wish I never met you and traveled with you." Something inside of him broke, a darken face overcame him. Pikachu was about to shock everyone when Ash said darkly, "Stop Pikachu, I got this." He looked up and everyone was terrified, his eyes were no longer a warm auburn color, rather a stone-cold blue color, and what really scared them was when he started laughing. "Heh, heheh," and he burst out laughing evilly. Then, in a dark voice, he said quietly at first, "After everything I've done for you guys." Then he started yelling his aura flaring to life, "AFTER EVERY GOD DAMN THING I DID FOR ALL OF YOU!" All his friend jumped at his outburst. Outside Max and Bonnie jumped when they heard a shout from inside and ran to the house only to see Ash looking like he wanted to strangle the group who sat on the couches cowering at him.
"IVE RISKED MY LIFE SO MANY DAMN TIMES FOR YOU!" Ash shouted, and he started saying everything he did for them one by one. "BROCK, IF IT WASN'T FOR ME, YOU'D BE STUCK IN THAT DAMN GYM OF YOURS WATCHING YOUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS. I HELPED YOU GET OUT OF THERE, I HELPED YOU BECOME THE BREEDER YOU ARE NOW," Brock cowered from Ash at his outburst. "AND MISTY, YOU WOULD STILL BE STUCK IN THAT WATER GYM, YOU WOULDN'T BE THE WATER TRAINER YOU ARE TODAY WITH OUT ME TAKING YOU OUT IN THE WORLD TO TRAVEL." Misty looked terrified. "TRACEY, YOU WOULDN'T HAVE MET YOUR IDOL WITHOUT ME. YOU WOULDN'T HAVE MEET OAK WITH OUT ME ALLOWING YOU TO COME WITH ME." "MAY, YOU DIDN'T EVEN LIKE POKÉMON BEFORE I MEET YOU. YOU WOULDN'T BE A COORDINATOR WITHOUT ME, I TAUGHT YOU EVERYTHING YOU NOW." "DAWN, YOU WOULDN'T BE WHO YOU ARE WITH OUT ME. I MADE YOU BECOME THE COORDINATOR YOU ARE TODAY." "CILAN, YOU WOULD STILL BE IN YOUR GYM, AND YOU WOULDN'T HAVE THE CHANCE TO BECOME A BETTER CONNOISSEUR THAN YOU WERE." "IRIS, YOU WOULDN'T HAVE GOTTEN TO MEET THE LEGENDARY POKÉMON YOU MET. YOU WOULDN'T BE CLOSER TO YOUR DREAM." "CLEMONT, YOU WOULD STILL BE RUNNING FROM YOUR DAD, MAKING YOUR DAMN MACHINES WHICH NEVER WORK." "SERENA, YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN TERRIFIED AS A CHILD IF I HADN'T HELPED YOU AT OAKS CAMP." "IVE RISKED MY LIFE TO SAVE ALL OF TOUR DAMN WORTHLESS LIVES, AND YOU HAVE ALL MADE THE BIGGEST MISTAKE OF YOUR LIFE." Ash turns around to leave when he hears a shaky voice say, "A-ash?" Ash turns around and the sight he saw broke his heart, Max and Bonnie look terrified and heartbroken. Ash then whispered loud enough for them to hear before he took off running, "I'm sorry,"
"Ash!" Max and Bonnie yell and run after him. The group got over their shock and ran outside, and saw Ash running down the road with Max and Bonnie chasing after him so they threw out their strongest Pokémon. Ash was halted when a row of Pokémon appeared before him. A Steelix, Gyarados, Scizor, Blaziken, Piplup, Dragonite, Semisage, Luxray, and a Braixen all appeared at Ash, ready for their commands. "Hyper Beam/Flamethrower/Whirlpool/Hydro Pump/Solar Beam/Thunder," the traitors yelled to their Pokémon. Max and Bonnie's eyes widen in horror as they saw the line of Pokémon charge their attacks, Max grabs Bonnie and puts himself in front of her and bends over to protect her. As the Pokémon shoot their attacks at Ash, Bonnie yelled, "NO!"
Just before the attacks reached their target they all combined into a giant ball of energy and made contact throwing dust up into the air. When the dust cleared there was a crater and scorch marks on the ground, the traitors cheered, while Max stood there unable to react while Bonnie hugged him and cried into his shoulder. 'I, I can't believe it.' Max thought as he slowly came back to reality and tears slipped from his eyes, 'h-he's gone, Ash is g-gone.' He couldn't hold back anymore, the tears streamed down his face.
"No, no, no, no," Bonnie kept repeating that word over and over and she cried into Max's shoulder. Max and Bonnie just stood there, grieving their friend/idol/brother.
"Don't worry Bonnie, I'll continue his dream," Max said quietly hoping to calm the girl a bit.
"W-what do y-you mean," Bonnie asked looking up at him. Max then said with determination in his voice, "I'm going to become the champion of Hoenn in his honor." She smiles and hugs him, "Let's become great trainers just for him." Max nods his head and with a face of determination, he yells, "May! I'm going home!" May replied, "Whatever," Bonnie said to Clemont, "I'm going with him." Clemont yelled back not paying attention, "Ok, just don't get hurt," While those two walked off to the port the traitors keep celebrating.
-X- Before the attack
Ash kept running tears streaming down his face, 'I HATE THEM' he yelled in his thoughts. Then he bumped into something hard, and looked up and saw not only Brock's Steelix but everyone else's strongest Pokémon. He eyes widen when he heard their trainers command to attack him, they all obeyed but not before giving him a look sympathetic look. They all then said before charging their attacks, "I'm sorry Ash." Ash knew he couldn't escape, so he just sat there waiting for the impact. Ash then heard Bonnie yell, "NO!" Ash turns around before the attack and sees Max, bent over a crying Bonnie trying to protect her. Ash smiled, 'Take good care of her Max.' Ash thought as he looked back at the ball of energy that had formed in front of him. A bright light blinded him and when he was able to see again, he and Pikachu sat in a giant white room. As he shakily stood up he got a better look at the room he was in. It was huge, it had arch doorways in different parts of the room. Along the walls there were many paintings, each of them had different scenarios each involving different Legendaries and to his surprise him and his so-called friends.
One painting had Mewtwo standing on one side of a battle field and on the other side stood mew, surrounding the battlefield were two of multiple Pokémon, and on one side had Brock, Misty, a boy Ash recognized, Nurse Joy, and other trainers all with a saddened look on their faces, and in the middle of the field lay a stone version of Ash, with Pikachu shocking him. The next painting had the legendary bird trio firing at Lugia, who had Ash on his back and the Team Rocket trio handing from his leg. The third painting had an Entei shooting attacks at a Charizard, on the Charizard's back was Ash and Pikachu, in the background is a crystal building with a hole in the wall, and in that hole stood Delia, Misty, Brock, the boy Ash recognized again, the Rocket trio, and Molly. The fourth painting has a man in a machine with a trapped Celebi, and while the man had the legendary, Ash and his friends were trying to stop him. The fifth painting was Ash sitting on a swing in the secret garden of Altomare, with Latias flying around the area, and Latios watching happily with Lorenzo and Bianca. The sixth painting had Max, Ash, May, Brock, and the boy having a good time with Jirachi at a festive. The seventh painting had Ash, Max, and Tory flying with two Deoxys and Rayquaza. The eighth painting had Ash in his Sir Aaron outfit helping a Lucario pump aura into the Tree of Beginning, while May, Max, Brock, and the boy fight off a goo that is invading everything in its path. The ninth painting had Ash trying to put the crystals back into the pedestal in the Sea Temple, while May, Pikachu, and Manaphy are in a pod, and outside for the temple Brock, Max, the boy, and some others were waiting for the 4 to get out of the temple from a sub. In the tenth painting, Ash, Dawn, the boy, and Brock were watching as Darkrai was trying to stop Palkia and Dialga from fighting. The eleventh painting was split in half, one half had Dawn, the boy, and Brock watch as Regigigas and a bunch of Mamoswines try to stop a glacier from crushing the Gracidea flower field, and the other half had Ash, Shaymin and Giratina trying to save the distortion world. The twelfth painting had Ash, Dawn, the boy, and Brock, watch as Giratina, Palkia, and Dialga, try to stop Arceus from destroying the world while trying to get the Jewel of Life, and many more from Ash's journeys when he saved the world ash helped Legendaries in various Regions. Ash then said in awe as he stared at all the paintings, "I remember all of these,"
"I'm glad you like them Chosen One," a kind voice said from behind the Pokémon trainer. When he turned around his eyes widen, "Arceus, and John." Arceus chuckles at Ash's reaction. "Ash, I'm sorry for what your friends did to you," Ash looks down with a darken and sadden face, Ash then said, "It's okay Arceus." John then said, "Arceus and I watched the whole thing happened from here, I'm glad we got you here in time." Ash then said, "I'm glad you guys did too," Ash then looked at Arceus and asked him, "Can you tell me why they did that? Why they betrayed me?" Arceus gave Ash a Sorrowful look and said, "I'm sorry Chosen One, but I cannot do that, I am unable to read minds. Plus, I had no idea that they planned that." Ash looks down, "It's okay Arceus, but why did you bring us here?"
"Well, the other Legendaries don't know about this incident," Arceus started, "and I'm pretty sure they don't want to believe it. So, I brought you here to save you and Pikachu, and so you can tell them yourself."
"Okay, I'll do it," Ash says with a fist pump.
Arceus nods and starts walking away, "Follow me to the meeting hall."
Ash nods and follows Arceus in a room that has a giant marble table, and surrounding the table are thrones of all shapes and sizes. Ash then looked at John and asked him, "What are you doing here?" John looked at Ash and said, "Well, I always come to these meetings, apparently Arceus trusts me enough." Ash looked at Arceus as he walked to the one at the end of the table and sits down and sends out a telepathic message to all Legendaries saying there's a meeting in the great hall. Ash and John walk over and stands next to Arceus' throne, "So when will they get here?" As soon as he asks that portals open above every throne and soon the Legendaries of every region come through and sit on their respective thrones.
"Alright, what's the meaning of this meeting?" A white Pokémon with a long purple tail asked, crossing his arms leaning back in his throne.
A small pink feline like Pokémon smacks the with and purple one with its tail, "Don't question King Arceus Mewtwo," it says in a feminine voice.
"It's okay Mew," Arceus responds, "and as for you Mewtwo, I have called this meaning because our Chosen One has been attacked."
All the Legendaries first stare at the original one, then the meeting is turned into an uproar. "I will personally destroy who ever hurt him.", "Who would do that?", "They'll pay for this.", are many of the things the Legendaries shout, outraged by the news.
"Everyone calm down, NOW!" Arceus shouts slamming his hooves, down on the table.
"King Arceus," a small white and red jet-like dragon asks sweetly, "Who are the ones that hurt the Chosen One?"
Arceus looks at the center of the table and says, "It'll be easier to just show you."
The center of the table splits revealing a small pool of water showing different events happening in the Pokémon world. "Observation pool, rewind about 20 minutes please." The pool starts to rewinding backwards and stops to show Ash and Pikachu walking to Ash's home. It then shows Ash walking inside talking to his friends, then him having fun with Max and Bonnie, the betrayal, Ash running off, and the attack. All the Legendaries were speechless, they couldn't believe it, they watched Ash die. Most of the Legendaries shed tears at the loss of the beloved Chosen One.
"But, that's not all," Arceus says gaining all the Legendaries attention, "Reveal yourself Chosen One." Ash walks out from behind Arceus' throne, with John right behind him. All the Legendaries gasp, their Chosen One, savior, friend was alive.
"Ash/Papa/Ashcon" the smaller Legendaries, Manaphy, and Hoopa yelled as they all rushed forward and tackled him. Ash chuckles as he hugs all the smaller Legendaries.
"Alright, everyone back to their thrones," Arceus says gaining everyone's attention, "this meeting isn't over." Arceus then looked at Ash and asked, "So ash, what would you like us to do?"
"W-what?" Ash says, stumbling back a bit, "what do you mean lord Arceus?"
"Well Ash, we all owe you our lives," Arceus says all the other Legendaries nodding in agreement, "you've done so much for us, so it's the least we can do, and we will all be ready to help you and your closest friends whenever you need it."
Ash stares in awe, "You really mean it?" Arceus nodded, and as Ash looks around at all the others, then nod as well with most smiling brightly. "I, I don't know what to say…"
"Let me tell you what you can do," the white and purple feline-human like Pokémon says sitting up, "catch me."
Ash stares at the Pokémon, "I thought you hated humans Mewtwo."
"Oh, believe me I do. But you taught me that not all humans are bad, and you have gained my trust. So, I want to repay you by joining you and together we will destroy those traitors." Mewtwo says with determination, except that last part with disgust. John walked up to Ash and Mewtwo and said, "Holy Shit Ash, come on Ash, why don't you catch him, plus he wants the traitors destroyed just as much as you, not to mention me."
Ash smiled, looked back at Mewtwo and said, "I'd love to have you join my team," he holds up a Pokéball and taps Mewtwo with it, it shakes a couple times and dings, "alright I caught… Mewtwo! Oh, and Arceus, I want you guys to help me train as friends, and in return, I'll help make you guys near impossible to defeat." All the Legendaries smile at what their friend said.
"Very well," Arceus nods her head, "if that is your wish, then consider it done, and take this," Arceus glows for a moment and a small wristwatch appears in front of ash "whenever you need us, just push that button, and it will detect which of us you need, and we will be summoned."
"Thank you, my lord," Ash says bowing, "now if you can, will you please teleport me back home, so I can tell my mother and the Professor what happened." Arceus nods, and a portal opens in front of him. Just before Ash stepped through the Portal, John said, "Hey, don't think you're going anywhere without me." Ash smiles as he steps into it, he said, "Come on then." John ran to catch up to Ash and when he looks around he notices they're in Ash's backyard, so he quietly slips through the darkness of night, and enters his house. He walks around and here's the sound of someone sobbing. As he walks into the living room he sees his mom sitting on the couch being consulted by Professor Oak. "Mom, Professor?"
Delia and Oak look up and see what they thought they'd never see again, Ash. "Ash!" Delia yells as she rushes forward and hugs her son, "W-what happened? Your friends told me that you all were attacked, and they tried to fight back but the attacker managed to hit you with an attack you weren't there. I thought you were dead." Ash hugs his crying mother and leads her to the couch. John sat next to Professor Oak and Ash said, "Mom, they lied. They told me to give up on my dreams, and when I tried to run they followed me and told their Pokémon to attack me." Delia and Oak stare in shock and Professor Oak said, "Those good-for-nothing kids when I get a hold of them…"
"Professor, don't do anything. I'll get my revenge later in time, for now, I want you to take off my Pokémon limit and I want to take all my Pokémon with me and I'll leave to train. I'll comeback every couple of months to tell you that I'm doing just fine.
"Okay Ash, let me see your Pokédex, and meet me at the lab," Ash nods and tries to convince his mother that she shouldn't hunt down the traitors and hurt them.
"Oh, and Professor, the ones who betrayed me are; Brock, Misty, Tracey, May, Dawn, Iris, Cilan, Clemont, and Serena. And tell Gary this when he comes back and tell him not to hurt the traitors." Oak nods and continues off to the lab. "Let's get some sleep mom, I'll leave tomorrow morning." Delia nods and walks off to her room.
Morning came quickly to the Ketchum house-hold. "I'm going to get my Pokémon then I'm leaving mom," Ash says as he hugs his mother one last time, "Stay safe sweetie, and make such you contact me often." "I will, mom, I will."
Ash runs off the lab as he waves to his mother. He soon arrives at the lab and hears Pikachu in the field telling the Pokémon what happens (Pikachu went there when they got back after the visit with Arceus). Ash knocks on the door and his old rival Gary opens the door, "Hey Ashy-boy, what are you doing here?"
"I'm here to speak to the Professor," Gary nods and lets Ash in.
"Hey Gramps, Ashy-boy's here to see you!"
"Ash my boy," the Professor says as he enters the room, "you here for up your Pokédex?" Ash nods and Oak goes to another room and comes back with a Pokédex and an Xtranseiver. "The Xtranseiver has the functions of all the technology you'd need, you can store your Pokémon, look at the map, and will even work as a portable video phone."
"Thank you Professor, I'm thankful for all you've done for me," Ash says as he hugs the Professor who has been like a father to him for as long as he can remember.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute," Gary says totally confused while holding one hand up stopping Ash from leaving, and one hand holding his head as if he has a headache, "why does Ashy-boy here get all these cool gadgets?"
"I'm leaving," Ash says bluntly wanting to get going so he can begin his training. Gary looked at Ash and asked, "Why so soon?" Ash's face darkened, and he looks down, so the brim of his cap shadows his eyes, "Because they betrayed me," he clenches his fist tightly, "they left me. They told me to give up, THEY SAID I NEEDED TO QUIT MY DREAM AND START THINKING ABOUT THE SAFETY OF OTHERS! IT'S NOT MY FAULT THAT I GET CAUGHT IN DANGEROUS SITUATIONS, I DON'T GO LOOKING FOR TROUBLE!" By now Ash has balled his fist so much his fingernails have punctured his skin and blood slowly leaks its way down his hand. Gary then said while putting a hand on his friend's shoulder, "Who all betrayed you, Ash? So, when I see those damn traitorous bastards again ill pummel them."
"Gary don't do anything," Ash says staring at his friend not wanting him to do anything rash, "and before you try and argue, I'm leaving to train, so when I'm stronger I'll become a champion and I'll utterly destroy them. Right now, as far as they know, I'm supposed to be dead. They had their Pokémon attack me, but Arceus saved me and offered to help me and my closest of friends. Speaking of which, whenever you're in trouble push this button to summon any legendary you need," Ash hands over a wristwatch similar to the one he has, "but only use it for emergencies. And they ones who betrayed me are Brock, Misty, May, Dawn, Tracey, Iris, Cilan, Clemont, and Serena. Now I'm going to go see if Pikachu has gathered all my Pokémon and told them what has happened." With that Ash walks out the back door and sees Pikachu sitting in front of a large crowd of Pokémon, "Everyone ready buddy?" Pikachu nods and as recalls all his Pokémon except for his trusty Charizard and Pikachu. Gary then shouted as he ran over to Ash, "Ash wait! What do I tell them?"
"The traitors, act like you normally would and slowly get away from them, but keep me updated, and tell all my former rivals about this, and make sure they won't confront the traitors." Gary nodded his head and said, "Got it, good luck Ashy-boy." Ash nods and him and Charizard take to the skies, "To Mt. Silver." With that Charizard roars loudly as he sours through the skies directly towards Mt. Silver.
"You know buddy, I think them betraying us might have been the best thing that's ever happened to us," Ash says looking at his loyal buddy.
"Why's that Ash?" Pikachu asks looking at his best friend from his shoulder. Ash replied, "Well for one, we wouldn't be as strong as we are now, we wouldn't be where we are now, and we wouldn't have made the friends we have now, and I won't lie, they are way better than they ever were." The yellow mouse just chuckles and nods his head, "That sure is true, and I'm glad they came back."
"Me to buddy, I sure missed them." Said Ash. Just then, a voice called from inside the cabin behind our favorite trainer and the voice said, "DAD!" Ash hollered back, "I'm out here Chloe!" The door to the cabin opens to reveal a girl around 13 years old, she had blonde hair that fell to her middle back, and bright blue eyes, and she had a mix of emotions in eyes, happiness, excitement, and a little bit of fear. "Dad, I have a letter for you." she hands the letter over.
Dear Satoshi,
You and your Elite Four are invited to join the greatest tournament of the year, we hope you will be able to attend. It will be great to have you and your Elites, considering you guys are considered the strongest region we have.
Sincerely, Mr. Goodshow
P.S. Ash, you are one hard man to find, and yes, all the traitors will be there, and of course, I planned this, I know how much you want to crush them. And I have already informed Hoenn and Sinnoh about the event, but you might want to arrange a meeting with them.
"Ah, good ol' Goodshow," thought Ash as he chuckled after reading the invite.
"Are we going, daddy?" Chloe asks with stars in her eyes at the idea of leaving the mountain again.
"Yes sweetie, we're going to go to the Tournament," he says chuckling as Chloe starts to jump up and down with excitement cheering with Pikachu at being able to leave and to battle. "Domino!" Soon the ex-executive of Team Rocket appears in the doorway of the cabin, "Yes sir?" she asks holding a clipboard while trying to quite some people on the other end of her headset. Ash then said as he walked into the cave next to the cabin with Chloe in pursuit, "Call in the Elites and Hoenn and Sinnoh for a group call, we are going to that Tournament. Also make an appointment to call Mr. Goodshow." Domino nodded her head and said, "Yes sir," she then walked back inside while making plans to get everyone in a big group call.
"Let's take the world by storm," Ash whispers to himself as he walks to go grab his Pokémon.
