The second Chapter of Destined Fate. To whoever Amelia's OC is I want to say thank you for letting me borrow the character in the story. Hope you like it


Several years later….

Ash Ketchum of Pallet Town, arrived late in Professor Oak's lab and finds out all of the starter pokemon have been chosen, he then get's a special starter pokemon and its name was Pikachu. Along with Pikachu, Ash captured cool pokemon and befriended with a lot of people, pokemon and after getting all 8 badges in the Kanto Region, He participated in the Indigo League with his friends, Brock and Misty (They didn't participate, they are just like in the anime) along with his rivals and managed to get in the Top 16, He then went to the Orange Islands and he met a guy named Tracy which he got along so well and tagged along with them, according to Tracy, they are 4 gyms in the Orange Islands and Ash challenged them and won and got a chance to battle the leader Drake, which surprises everyone that Ash won.

Even though he accomplished this, He then went to Johto because he saw a Ho-oh going there and that's what decides Ash on what region to go next. It pretty much went the same in the Johto, made friends, travelled with Brock and Misty along with Pikachu of course, got all badges and went for the Silver Conference (Johto League). Instead of getting to Top 16, He managed to get Top 8 and finally beat his long time rival, Gary Oak.


We now join Ash Ketchum now relaxing in Pallet Town thinking of what region to go next

"Hey Pikachu, do you know what region should we go next?" Ash asked

Pikachu just shook his head, not knowing where to go

Ash sighed "If only there was a sign to tell me what region to go next"

As if on cue, Ho-oh flew by and headed to the south-west of Kanto

Ash stood there amazed by the sight, He managed to see Ho-oh not once, not twice, but thrice

"…Ho-oh…." Ash mumbled the words and noticed that it's telling him where to go next


ASH'S POV

At Professor Oak's Lab

I knocked at the door to be greeted by my friend and companion, Tracey

"What's up Ash?" Tracy asked me "Looking for Professor Oak?"

"Yeah!" I said "Is he here?"

"Hold on Ash, I'll get him for you"

"Thanks Tracey"

5 minutes later…

"Hello Ash, Need something?" Prof. Oak asked

"Do you know what region that lies in the south-west of Kanto?" I asked with the tone of curiosity

"Well my boy, the region you're talking about is the Hoenn Region" Prof. Oak said

"Hoenn? I think I've heard of it somewhere before"

"You did face Harrison from Hoenn during the Silver Conference Ash" Tracey said

"Aside from that, I heard it earlier before I went on a Journey, I can't remember it though"

"I'm sure you will remember it someday Ash, Are you planning to go there?" Prof. Oak asked me

"Of course Professor, nothing like a new journey to go!" I raised my fist in the air and Pikachu mimicked my movements equally excited as I am

"Good luck in getting to the Hoenn League Ash, I'm rooting for you"

"Thanks Tracey, I'll win the Hoenn League this time" I said

"Pikachu Pikapika!" Pikachu exclaimed and doing its signature move

"Are you going to bring the other pokemon you have Ash?"

"Sorry Professor, but I think I'll just stick using Pikachu, I want to start fresh using my starter pokemon at the beginning and catch some Hoenn pokemon there, I'll see you later Professor!" I said while running through the neighborhood to get to my house.

"Professor, do you think Ash will win this tournament?" Tracey Asked

"Well I hope he will win this League but I'm sure he'll do his best to win, This is Ash we're talking about you know"

"I have no doubts Professor, I'll go tell Ash's pokemon about this"


Meanwhile at Ash's house

"Mom! I'm home is dinner ready yet?" Ash said running through the house

"Pika pika!" Pikachu shouted

" BIG BROTHER!"

Ash turned around to see a 7-year old brunette running towards him wearing a small bow on her head and wearing a red top with a dark-blue skirt and a cute little face that makes people go 'aww'

"Hey there Amelia, where's Mom?" Ash asked

"Mom is out in the backyard garden, can I play with Pikachu?"

" If Pikachu wants to" Ash turned to Pikachu "Will you play with Amelia, Pikachu?" Pikachu nodded happily and jump to Amelia's feet

"I'll see you both later then, I'm going to Mom" Ash went to backyard and turned around to see his little sister and Pikachu having fun together and a smile is visible in his face then walked to his Mom

"Something wrong Ash?" Delia asked

"Nothing's wrong Mom, I'm just asking if dinner is ready?" Ash said

"Of course dear, I'll just go to the kitchen and place the foods in the table"

"Thanks Mom, I have something to talk about after we eat"

"Okay Honey"

Delia and Ash went to the kitchen to prepare for dinner and Ash called his little sister and Pikachu and then they eat.

"How come Big brother eats so fast? He'll eat all of our food"

"Don't worry sweetie, I always cook enough for Ash to be full and us too" Amelia just grinned having known that all of them can eat their food. After dinner, they all talk about Ash's plans

"So Ash, you said you have something to talk about?" Delia asked

"Oh yeah, Mom, I'm going to Hoenn tomorrow" Ash said happily

Delia giggled "You never stop going for adventure don't you?"

"Of course Mom, I love travelling and battling with my friends"

Amelia heard that her brother is leaving tomorrow and she frowned because she'll have no one to play with, especially her big brother and Pikachu will not be here. Delia noticed her daughter upset of Ash leaving so soon and then…

"Ash dear, is it okay if Amelia joins with you in your journey?" Hearing this Amelia turned her frown into a big grin and her eyes sparkled

"I'm okay with it, what more fun to have someone to travel with? You want to travel with me Amelia?"

"YES!" Amelia shouted and a wide grin all over her face

"Okay, Mom help Amelia pack her things while I pack my things, The boat will leave at 10:00 A.M."

"Sure honey" With that Amelia dashed into her room, excited about going to a journey

"Amelia sure is excited for tomorrow, are you sure you're okay with this Mom?"

"Yes dear, I wanted to see Amelia happy and going to a journey with you is pretty much okay with me"

"But you do know that you'll be alone while we go on a journey right?" Ash asked with a hint of sadness

"I know dear, I have Mr. Mime here after all so I won't be all alone, and Amelia was frowning when she heard you're going away and I know that she wants to be with her Big brother"

"I need to have a chat with Amelia before we go to bed, is it okay Mom?"

"I won't stop you dear, you're in charge of Amelia as of tomorrow in your journey"

"Thanks Mom"

So Ash got up from the table and proceed to his little sister's room

"Amelia, can you open the door?" Ash asked

Ash heard footsteps from inside and the door opened to see Amelia still having that wide grin

"Amelia, I need to talk to you about some things during our journey"

"Sure Big brother"

"First, I want you to listen to me and follow me because I don't want you to get hurt during our journey okay?" Amelia nodded

"Second, we need to go to Professor Oak's lab tomorrow so don't be late"

"Why are we going to Prof. Oak's lab?"

Ash just grinned and said "You'll get to borrow 3 of my pokemon to help you and they will protect you"

Amelia was so happy to hear that she will get 3 pokemon under her command and the best part is its Ash's Pokemon and she can borrow them as if they were her own

"But Big brother, aren't I allowed to have pokemon? I'm not 10 years old you know"

"Well to start off, you can't enter the League because you don't have a Pokedex and you can only get it when your 10 years old but you can have your pokemon early and I'm sure Prof. Oak won't mind if I can let you bring some of my pokemon but they aren't registered in my team yet, it's your team"

"Can I pick them?" Amelia asked and hey eyes sparkled

"Sure, I did say it was you team, I'm just bringing my Pikachu because he's my starter pokemon but you can select my other pokemon"

"Yay! I got my own pokemon"

"Now now, I didn't say they are YOUR Pokemon but I let you BORROW my pokemon, of course they will listen to you, for this journey"

Amelia just nodded and understood what her big brother meant to say and packed her things


The next day

"Morning Mom!" Ash yawned while making his way to breakfast and saw Amelia still excited, sitting and eating her breakfast

"Morning Big brother" Amelia said with a big hint of excitement. Ash chuckled at the sight of his little sister

"Morning dear, I have a little gift for both of you and Amelia, I'll show it after we eat breakfast"

Ash and Amelia glanced at each other wondering what the gift is. After breakfast, Delia brought out 2 boxes with Ash's name on one box and Amelia's name on the other. Both of them opened the box and saw new outfits for their journey. Both of them thanked their mother and proceeded to their respective rooms and wore their outfit

Ash wore black shirt with 2 stripes at the part of the stomach covered by a dark blue sweatshirt with a hood behind and a semi circle on the bottom of the sweatshirt, black gloves with a green outline , a light blue pants and black and blue sneakers and a green bag with a circle shaded in red. (This is the Hoenn Outfit which is similar to the Anime)

Amelia wore something simpler, a red colored shirt covered in a light orange sweatshirt with a pokeball design at the mid part of the sweatshirt, a light blue skirt that reached on her knees and a red and blue sneakers, wore red and white gloves and a new bag colored pink with the same design as Ash's backpack. (Let's just say that she likes the color red)

"Oh my, Amelia looks cute in her outfit and Ash looks like a fine young man in that outfit. I knew that it will look good on you two" Delia said with a hint of amazement

"Thanks Mom" Both Ash and Amelia said

"Now you two better run along now, you don't want to get left behind now would you?

"OK, Bye Mom!" Both of them said again

Then Ash and Amelia ran to Prof. Oak's lab to get Amelia's 3 pokemon of her choice

"They grow up so fast" Delia giggled


Meanwhile at Prof. Oak's lab

"Amelia, you have to behave okay?" Amelia nodded

Then somebody opened the door and it was their friend Tracey

"Hello Ash, and hello Amelia, what brings you two here? Is Amelia coming with you Ash?" Tracey asked

"Yeah, Amelia is coming with me and is Professor Oak here? I have something to talk about"

"Sure, just wait for a minute and I'll get him" Tracey left and Ash and Amelia sat on the living room

"Have you figured out who you're bringing?"

"Yup, I'll tell you later"

"What a pleasant surprise, Amelia is here with Ash, anything you need Ash?"

"Yeah Professor, I was wondering if Amelia could bring 3 of my pokemon?"

"I'm sorry Ash, but I'm afraid that is not possible, even if it is your little sister, you have to trade your pokemon with her" Amelia frowned after hearing this and Ash was feeling ashamed of himself but Prof. Oak noticed this and decided to tell them the good news

"BUT, I can let her choose a starter pokemon for her own journey" Prof. Oak said

"WHAT!?" Both Ash and Amelia screamed with joy

"Don't tell anyone that I will let Amelia get her starter pokemon early, I'll tell your mother about this though, so don't worry about going back there"

"Thank you Prof. Oak" Amelia said happily

"There is one problem though" Prof. Oak said with a serious tone

"What's the problem professor?"

"There is only one pokemon that is mature enough on a journey"

"Oh, but I can still pick them right?" Amelia said with a hint of curiosity

"No, the pokemon aren't enough to go on with a trainer"

"So there's one choice isn't it?" Ash asked

"That's the bad part but there is a good part in it" Prof. Oak stated rather happily

"Then can we see the pokemon?" Amelia asked

"Sure, follow me"

Ash and Amelia followed Prof. Oak to the part of the lab where they can choose their starter pokemon

"Good times we share in this place right Pikachu?" Ash chuckled remembering

"Pika!" Pikachu understood what Ash said, both remembering the part where Ash and Prof. Oak got shocked when Pikachu used thundershock at that moment

"Well here we are" Prof. Oak said

"So I will choose either Squirtle, Bulbasaur, and Charmander?" Amelia asked

"Not exactly Amelia, as I said, they are not mature enough"

"So who is this pokemon Professor?" Ash asked

Prof. Oak chuckled while grabbing the pokeball "I'm sure you'll be amused at this one Ash" Prof. Oak then threw the pokeball and out comes the pokemon.

The Pokemon is smaller than Pikachu, and it's ears are has an outline of black, it's neck has a collar of black and it's tail is black, the other parts are all light yellow and has a pink cheeks.

"Pichu?" the pokemon said

"Oh cool, it's a Pichu, Pikachu, go on and say Hi!" Ash said and Pikachu jumped from his shoulder to the table where the pokemon is

"It's even better than the Starters! I have the pre evolved form of Pikachu!" Amelia squealed with delight

"Wow, Amelia knows a lot pokemon already and she's not yet even 10 years old, Did she learn from you Ash?"

"Yup, she asked me what pokemon I have encountered every time I got home"

The Pichu was chatting happily with Pikachu and noticed the young girl and Pichu jumped from the table and into the young girl's shoulder and rubbed it's cheeks with the young girl's cheeks. Amelia giggled and picked up the Pichu from her shoulders and looked at it with smile and Pichu returned it back wagging it's little tail

"The Pichu looks like it likes Amelia very well, It's also great because Pikachu can guide Pichu since it is the evolution of it and it looks strong too" Ash said

"There is a problem with that Pichu though" Professor Oak chuckled

"What is it?"

"It is similar to your Pikachu, it HATES being in its Pokeball"

Then Ash and Prof. Oak shared a good laugh on the similarity of the Pichu and Pikachu

"What's so funny Big brother?" Amelia asked

"I just know how similar my Pikachu and Pichu. They both don't like pokeballs"

Pikachu smiled in delight and then shared a laugh with it's trainer

"Pika-pikachu? (You don't like pokeballs too?)" Pikachu asked Pichu

"Chu pipi Pichu (Yeah, I hate it inside)" Pichu answered

"Pikachu Pikapika (We really are similar)"

"So Amelia, you okay to go with Pichu?" Prof. Oak asked

"Yes Professor Oak, I love Pichu and he also loves me"

"Well then here's Pichu's pokeball" Prof. Oak gave the pokeball

Pichu took a step backward and stay away from his pokeball, afraid of going back

"Don't worry Pichu, I won't put you in the pokeball. I'm doing the same thing with Big brother" Amelia reassured the Pichu and Pichu smiled and climbed onto her shoulder

"Okay then, here's your pokedex and 5 pokeballs. You know what they both do right?" Prof. Oak asked

Amelia nodded happily "Pokeballs are used to catch other pokemon and the Pokedex records the pokemon you see and gives information about it"

"Smart girl, You learned from your brother alright" Prof. Oak chuckled

Ash nodded in agreement and glanced at the clock, it's already 9:30 and whoa what!? "Oh no, Amelia let's hurry, We're going to be late"

"Right big brother, Let's go" Amelia ran with her brother

"They really are siblings" Prof. Oak chuckled at the sight of Ash and Amelia running with a Pikachu and Pichu on their shoulders


After 20 minutes of running they made it to the boat and went to their room panting heavily

" I knew… I… should've… woke up... a bit... " Ash didn't finish his sentence and lay down on his bed feeling tired

Amelia was on her bed playing with her Pichu and Pikachu joined with them. Ash smiled at the sight of his little sister having fun with her pokemon and amazed at the fact that she is already a pokemon trainer.

"So Amelia, now that we're here why don't you battle with me and Pikachu against you and Pichu?" Ash asked

Amelia nodded confidently and Pichu looked at Pikachu with confidence and Pikachu smirked and agreed

"Okay why don't we battle at the deck, we don't want to destroy the room"

A minute later, they arrived at the deck and then stood against each other with their eyes locked onto each other, Pikachu and Pichu share their master's feelings and waited for the signal

"Okay sis, are you ready?" Ash asked

"Yes Big brother, I am ready" Amelia answered back

"You know Pichu's moves right?"

"I studied Pichu while we were at our room so let's get started"

"Okay, you go first" Ash smirked

Amelia nodded "Pichu, Quick attack"

"Pikachu use Quick attack as well"

Pichu and Pikachu obeyed their trainer's command and moved fast, Pikachu and Pichu collided and amazingly they both were even at strength and speed since they collided at the center of the field

'Wow, Amelia's Pichu really is strong and it's speed is also fast' Ash thought "Pikachu use Thunderbolt"

"Pichu dodge it!"

Pikachu unleashed it's electricity at Pichu and tried to dodge the attack but Pikachu's attack hits it's leg and Pichu barely dodged it, it was hit but it did little damage because of it's speed

"Pikachu agility"

"Pichu stay strong and use agility as well"

Both pokemon understood and used agility to increase the speed

"Pikachu use Iron tail" (Just assume that they learned moves after their journey at Sinnoh but not learned moves at Unova region)

"Pichu use Quick attack to dodge and use Thundershock at Pikachu"

Pikachu's tail turned into iron and ran to Pichu as fast as he can and tried to hit it but Pichu was quick and easily dodged the Iron Tail and used his Thundershock straight to Pikachu and it was a direct hit but Pikachu received little damage

"Pikachu Quick attack into Iron Tail"

Amelia knew Pichu can't avoid it so then "Pichu deflect that Iron Tail using your Iron Tail"

"Wait what?!" Ash exclaimed

Pikachu, without hesitation, used Quick attack and charged his Iron Tail and tried to hit Pichu with the Iron Tail and Pichu used his Iron tail to deflect it back but Pikachu's force was stronger and sent Pichu to Amelia's side

"Wow, I never thought that Pichu can use Iron Tail, I knew it was strong" Ash said "But it ends here! Pikachu finish it with Volt Tackle!"

Amelia smirked "You'll be surprised Big Brother because Pichu knows this as well, Pichu finish this battle with Volt Tackle as well!"

The 2 pokemon rushed into each other, both covered in a yellow aura and lightning surrounded them both. When they both collided a huge cloud of dust appeared and neither knew who was down for the count but they knew there can only be one victor. They both heard a big THUD but no one knew who was it. The dust was cleared and it was revealed that Pikachu was doing a victory pose and Pichu down with swirls in his eyes. Ash and Amelia rushed to Pichu and Pikachu and picked them up

"You win Big brother, but I need to learn more about battling"

"You did great for your first battle, Pichu knows a lot of moves too, I admit I was caught off guard when it knew both Iron Tail and Volt Tackle. It really is powerful, some training will make it better" Ash smiled and took something from his bag.

"Eat this Pichu, you'll be feeling better if you eat it" Ash handed the berry and put it in Pichu's mouth and it's energy went back. Amelia smiled that Pichu was okay

"Big brother what did Pichu eat?" Amelia asked

"It was an Oran Berry, it restores a pokemon's health but not completely"

"Can it be eaten by humans too?"

Ash chuckled that Amelia likes to learn more "Of course, let's head back to the room and rest so they also will regain their strength, they gave all what they had in that amazing battle"

"Sure" Amelia nodded in agreement

'I know that I've heard of Hoenn before, I just can't remember why I heard of it' Ash thought while going back to their room 'Ah well, I'll remember it when I get there'

"Hey big brother" Amelia asked and stop in her tracks

"What is it Amelia?" Ash asked stopping and looking Amelia

"I'm hungry" Amelia sheepishly rubbed the back of her head and as if on cue, Ash and Amelia's stomach made a sound signaling their hunger.

Ash and Amelia laughed and head to the cafeteria and take some food and went to their table and ate, Ash and Amelia quickly ate their food so fast that many people looked at them and sweat-dropped at the sight. Pikachu licking the bottle of Ketchup without a care in the world and Pichu eating a burger.

"Hey Big brother, why does Pikachu likes ketchup so much?" Amelia asked

"I seriously do not know" Ash and Amelia looked at Pikachu and Pikachu took a step back turning his head a little and sweat-dropped while rubbing the back of his head. Luckily, Ash and Amelia just shrugged it off and returned to their room. Amelia, Pichu, and Pikachu were playing a game of tag and Amelia was it and chased the 2 pokemon while Ash went out of their room's balcony and his hands on the rail and looking at the stars of the night and later, Pikachu joined his trainer and Amelia slept with Pichu.

"Hey Pikachu, What do you think the Hoenn region looks like?" Ash asked his fellow companion

"Pika" Pikachu said while he shook his head looking like that he couldn't answer his question

Ash sighed "I wonder what pokemon is there, I hope we meet some cool friends and make great rivals, I wonder if Amelia will also do Gym Battles. Do you think that she would also do that?"

"Pi" Pikachu said while nodding happily

"Well, whatever she wants to do, I'll wish her good luck with it"

Ash and Pikachu went back inside the room and looked at Amelia and Pichu sleeping comfortably. Ash and Pikachu approached them and tucked Amelia and Pichu in.

"Sweet dreams Amelia and Pichu" Ash said softly and kissed Amelia in her forehead. Amelia smiled while sleeping

"Pika" Pikachu said softly and patted Pichu and Pichu smiled similar to his trainer

Ash and Pikachu chuckled at the sight of the two smiling while in their sleep. Ash and Pikachu then lay down on the bed and stare at ceiling thinking about tomorrow. Pikachu lay in Ash's stomach and Ash scratched at Pikachu's right ear and Pikachu cooed happily

"Good night buddy" Ash said

"Pika" Pikachu licked his trainer's cheek and then they both drifted to sleep
