Delia was just walking back from the market when she saw Ash walking away from Pallet town.
"Honey, where are you going?"she asked him
After he told her what happend she was furious at his friends an pokemon. He told that he was going to Unova and stay there,Delia imidiatly decided to go with presented Meloetta and Azelf to after three days moved for Unova.
Eight Years later
The baby cries waked a man up, next to him was his wife who said
"Ash your turn to change Katerina"Elesa said
As he stood up he remembered how he ended marrying Elesa
Flashback
He had been in Unova for close to four months and was currently going through Ninbasa City. He was looking at a list of confirmed Pokémon sightings in the area, not looking where he was going and suddenly
Crash
"Oh my goodness I'm so sorry." He said slowly getting his bearings and not realizing who he ran into.
"It's alright I suppose, accidents do happen. I should have been looking where I was going." The person said.
Upon hearing the voice Ash realized the person he ran into was a girl, a girl he knew.
"Elesa, is that you?" he asked to make sure.
"Yeah do I know; oh Ash hello where are the others and your Pikachu because this on your shoulder isn't the one that you had?" she asked looking for the others and then pointing at the new pikachu(Named X-ray).
"I'm afraid were not really friends anymore" he said, his voice becoming cold and quiet.
"Oh I'm sorry to hear that what happened?" she asked confused and concerned.
She had always thought that Ash and his friends were iron clad.
"Let's go somewhere and eat and I'll tell you" he said not wanting to tell all this in the middle of the street.
They went to a nearby café where Ash told her everything that had happened between him and his former friends.
After hearing his story she was floored to have his family friends and Pokémon turn against him like that she couldn't imagine it.
She asked the only question she could think of" What now?"
"I prove them wrong" he stated with conviction in his voice
"How are you going to do that? She asked
"I win the Unova league and then become champion of Unova." He said with even more confidence in his voice.
She looked at him as he said that and she could feel the confidence radiating from him.
"He's lost so much, and yet he's willing to move forward and start completely anew. And with this confidence I think, no I know he can really do this, and I thought want to by his side when he does. She thought unaware that two invisible Pokémon was hearing every thought
"Interesting, she seems to really believe in him. More than they ever did" Meloetta thought with a smile. Also taking notice of the faint blush on Ursula's face
"Ash" Elesa spoke up very quietly.
"Yeah, what is Elesa?" he asked
"Would it be okay it I traveled with you?" she asked quietly.
He was shocked, but schooled his features very well. He had nothing against Elesa she seemed like a nice enough person, but he was reluctant to travel with anyone after what had happen with his former friends.
"What about the GYM?"
"My sister is now GYM leader."
"I say you should do it." Meloetta said in his head.
"Are you sure?" he asked, still skeptical.
"I'm positive we can trust her." Azelf said with no trace of doubt in its voice.
"Well you trust her and I trust you, so it works for me." He said deciding to give her a shot.
"I suppose so." He said, trying not to sound nervous.
"Really, you mean it? She asked hoping he wasn't kidding.
Seeing the hope in her eyes, he knew that this was the right decision.
"Yeah, I'm sure." he said with a reassuring smile.
"Thank you Ash. I swear you won't regret this." She stated with conviction.
So for the next year and a half they traveled around Unova training nonstop. During the third year of their trip they entered into a relationship with each other. It was a whirlwind romance resulting in marriage and a child after Ash beat Cynthia for her title.
Flashback end
As he finished changing Katerina Meloetta and Azelf came floating.
"Good morning ." He called.
"Morning Ash." They called back.
"I'll make breakfast after I get Maria here changed. Okay?" he asked.
"Okay. I'll go wake up the rest of the rest of the Pokémon." theyanswered.
"Breakfast is in 20 minutes." He called as Meloetta left the room.
Picking Katerina up and putting her in her high-chair, he went to wake up Elesa, when his phone went of
Checking the caller id it was his boss Charles Goodshow, head of the Pokémon league.
"Hey boss, what's going on? The elites crush someone else" he asked with a grin on his face.
"I'm afraid not Ash. One of your old friends made it past the elites and wants a match with the mysterious Champion of Unova."
Unlike the previous champion Alder, Ash wasn't into being in the public eye. He had won the Unova league, the elite four's challenge, and became champion under a fake name that only Alder and Mr. Goodshow knew about.
Ash was floored thinking about finally showing those that had turned against him.
"It would be nice to see them again albeit in a bitter-sweet kind of way" he spoke quietly to himself
"You say something my boy?" Goodshow asked on the other end.
"Sorry boss just talking to myself. So, who am I going up against?" asked Ash.
Mr. Goodshow said two words that put his present paradise on a collision with his painful past.
"Max Mayple"
"You can't be serious can you Charles?
"Afraid so my boy and it seems he wants to hold a press conference about this and is demanding the champion be there to in his words meet the man he will hand his title to." Goodshow replied seriously.
"So. You want me to be there then?" Ash asked with a frown.
"Not just you Ash, I want Elesa and Katerina there as emotional support." Goodshow responded dead serious.
"Charles, there is no need to bring my family around those traitors." Ash said in a cold voice.
"Ash this will be the first time you've been face to face with your former friends in nearly a decade, and we have no idea what kind of reaction you have to Max using your old pik-"Charles started before cutting himself off.
"Using my what? What aren't you telling me Charles?" Ash asked hotly.
Goodshow sighs and says quietly "There are sources that say that Max plans to use your old Pikachu."
Ash sits there in shock for a minute remembering Pikachu turning his back on him in Kanto nearly a decade ago, and then realizes that this is the perfect chance to pay them back even if they don't know it is him.
He puts the phone back up to his face and asked "When and where is the press conference?
"In three days at the Petalburg gym." Goodshow says with a grin.
"We'll be there." Ash says smirking.
