Ash Ketchum's Trainer Chanllenge Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN POKEMON, IF I DID ASH WOULD'VE WON THE SINNOH LEAGUE AND MISTY AND BROCK STILL BETHERE.

Ash and Pikachu just arrived from the Unova region. He was the runner up of the Unova League.
He was just a move away from claiming the title of champion, a narrowly missed oppurtunity. Cilan and Iris went their seperate ways and Ash just wanted to be home. He realized that maybe his life as a trainer wasn't as spectactular as he thought.
Every tournament he entered he lost. He tried to shake it off because his friends were around, but Ash thought of himself as a complete failure. The Battle Fronteir was a fluke. The Orange league was a fluke. All of Kanto gym badges were given to him out of gratitude. He never ever told anyone but Pikachu how he felt.
"I'll never be a strong trainer."

He always told himself Ash sat in his room with Pikachu on his stomach. He looked up at his ceiling as if it were interesting.

"Pikachu, I don't know anymore. I just want to give up as a trainer. I'm a failure Pikachu. I'm sorry."

Ash said as the salty,hot tear ran down his face. Pikachu looked up at Ash in anger.

"PipipiPikachupipikachuuPika.(Ash, we've been through it enough you are not a failure. )"

"Thanks Pikachu."

Ash said. The words didn't mean anything. It didnt lighten the mood or lighten his spirit.
Suddenly, Ash's newly purchased cell phone rang loudly. The ringtone was the pokemon league theme song. It was Scott.

"Hey Ash. How are you?"Scott said.

"Well. Whats up Scott, everything all right?" Ash said as he put a false feel of happiness on.

"I have a traier who saw you on the Unova and Sinnoh league tournaments. He would like to battle you, he is , a client of mine." Scott hesitated to say.

"Okay, who is this 'client'? "Ash asked

" His name is Kyaun Underbridge. He beat the battle fronteir shortly after you did. He is sorta a fan of yours."Scott said.

"Really, a fan. Okay." Ash said. This actually made him slightly happier.

"Since I know you, you are gunna battle him anyway. You never turn down a challenge. The battle is a six on six on Thursday, tomorrow at the Indigo Plateau." Scott said.

"OKay then, I"ll be there!" Ash said as he hung up. Ash stood up and thought about what he just got his self into.

He is a failure getting ready to let a fan down because he knows that he can't go to the battle.

"Im not going Pikachu, I cant let down a fan by giving them a crappy battle." Ash said.

"Pikachu pipipipipiPika! ( no you're letting him down by not showing up Ash, if you dont go I'll volt tackle you.)" Pikachu said as his cheeks sparked.

"Guess that means I have to go then if you are threatning me."Ash said.

"Pikapika.(Yeah you better)" the small yellow electric mouse replied.
