As this story is discontinued, I will be posting the notes for the story. Feel free to use any ideas.
Standard 8 gyms, but only has a champion. 1st gym has Dawn's brother, 8th her father, and champion as Red, Ash's father. He wins after tough training due to the first gym battle being so hard. Ash wins and is asked to be the new champion but was told he would need to leave Dawn behind. He tells all of the people there that they are terrible to their families.
