I started on this one soon after chapter 2 was good and done. Like I said, your going to get a few quick chapters out of this story before the pace slows, just like Joined Worlds was in the beginning. Onwards to the chapter!
Pallet Town
"Mrs. Ketchum, please wake up!"
The entire house was in shock after what they had just witnessed on the live feed from the stadium. Misty was ghostly white, Professor Oak was clutching his chest like he was about to have a heart attack, Brock was all but paralyzed in shock, and Delia had collapsed.
"A-a-a-ash, we, we got to help him..." Brock stuttered out.
"Huff, huff, not, not just him. Everyone in that stadium is in danger" Oak wheezed out. "Legendary Pokemon are not to be trifled with, even by the most powerful of trainers."
"Ashy..." Delia muttered on the floor.
Misty stood above her in shock. "Delia, please get up."
Professor Oak was the first to snap out of it. He turned to Ash's old friends and beckoned them to follow him.
"But what about Ash's mom?" Brock asked the elderly professor.
"I'll take care of her, but you were right. You need to go help Ash" Oak explained.
"But how will we get there in time? He's all the way in Unova, and that's thousands of miles away from Kanto" Misty asked.
Oak answered by pulling out a Pokeball. "Go, Dragonite!" he shouted. In a flash, the orange dragon Pokemon stood in front of them.
"Dragonite, take Brock and Misty to Saffron City, and to Sabrina's Gym."
"Um, Sabrina, but isn't she a bit, you know, creepy?" Misty shivered. "She turned us into dolls the first time we went there."
"That may be, but she is the only surefire person I know of that has an Alakazam that can use Teleport" Oak explained his reasoning. "When you get there, tell her you need quick passage to Unova, and that every second counts, that is, if she doesn't already know."
"Why would she already know?" Brock asked.
Oak chuckled. "Never underestimate a Psychic."
Blackthorn City
"May, wait up" Drew said.
"No, I need to go help Ash!" May shouted. "Don't you get that he's being attacked by Legendary Pokemon?"
"I understand that, May, but how do you plan on getting to him?"
May stopped dead still. She hadn't thought about that. She had no way to get to the far away Unova region, and no flying Pokemon to carry her.
"Look, I know that it isn't ideal, but I know about a small airport that was set up in Cherrygrove Town" Drew explained his fix. "Flygon could probably fly you there, and the planes at the airstrip are rather fast. They would probably take about 30 minutes to get you there."
"THIRTY MINUTES?" she exclaimed.
"I know that it's not great, but if I've learned one thing, it's to never underestimate Ketchum. Not only is he there, but he's in a stadium of world class trainers. I'm sure they can last 45 minutes for you to get there" Drew boosted her confidence.
There was a short pause in which there was silence. She turned to face Drew and smiled. "Thank you Drew. You're a great friend, and the best rival."
Drew nodded, slightly embarrassed by her emotional display. He turned around and took out a Pokeball. "Flygon, come on out!"
With a flash of bright light, the dragonfly dragon Pokemon stood majestically in front of them. "Flyyyyyyyy" Flygon stretched its wings.
"Flygon, take May to Cherrygrove. Use Agility, or Quick Attack, or Aerial Ace, or whatever you have to to get there faster, okay?" Drew requested of having s Pokemon.
"Flygon, Fly!" Flygon responded. It lowered itself close to the ground so May could climb on.
May mounted Flygon and braced for takeoff. Drew nodded to the Pokemon and it took off. Drew watched his Flygon and May quickly disappear into the night sky.
Azalea Town
A very worried pair of people sprinted out of the Pokemon Center of Azalea Town.
"Come on, which way to Unova? We need to get there ASAP!" Iris demanded.
"I agree. An attack by two Legendary Pokemon is a recipe for disaster, no matter how tough of a trainer you are" Cilan conceded.
Iris pulled a Pokeball out of her pocket and tossed it into the air. "Dragonite, come on out!"
In a flash, Iris' grumpy Dragonite stood before the duo. It glared at the to of them and huffed.
Iris ran over and jumped on Dragonite's back, then held her hand out to pull Cilan on.
Cilan came over, but as soon as he was up, he asked the question "where do you plan to go? Even your Dragonite isn't strong enough to fly all the way to Unova."
Iris sighed. "Yeah, good point. What do you suggest Cilan?"
"Well, I discovered an airstrip in Cherrygrove a while back. I found it when I was looking for passage to Raknor, as I had heard of a delectable donut shop that the run there" Cilan recounted.
"That's perfect!" Iris exclaimed. "Okay Dragonite, Fly up, and use Extremespeed to get us to Cherrygrove Town, fast!"
"Wait, Extremespeed? Wait, Iris..." Cilan tried to protest, but stopped as he had to hold on for dear life.
Sky above Hoenn
"You're doing great, Togekiss, just a little further to Slateport" Dawn consolated her Togekiss.
"Togee" Togekiss said with a smile.
"We need to help Ash. Even though we'll be fighting Legendary Pokemon," Dawn paused, shivering of the prospect of fighting titans like them. The last time she had encountered a Legendary Pokemon, it had been the Creation Trio and Arceus, and it had not gone over too well. She knew her Pokemon had been no match before, but she was stronger now, and these Legendaries were not in the same class as Arceus.
"Ah, there, I can see Slateport. Alright, let's see what their fastest ship is!"
PWT
"Wait, Rayquaza? Brendan, do you really-" Ash questioned the Hoenn trainer, before he was cut off.
"Yeah, those rumors, about me and him incident with the Hoenn Legendaries, they aren't just rumors" Brendan admitted. He shot a look up at Omega. "How did you know about Rayquaza?" he shouted.
Omega chuckled. "You'd be surprised how much data you can acquire when you are a part of a worldwide organization."
"What do you mean, 'worldwide?'" Brennan asked. "Team Delta is a new organization, and you said you guys are Hoenn based."
"Its true, we do mainly operate out of Hoenn. However, we have banded together with Team Rocket, Team Galactic, Team Plasma, and a little-known Team out of Orre known as Team Cipher."
That's when Ash heard another few footfalls from the stands. There were now a small group of trainers joining them on the battlefield. A young boy in a blue Sinnoh jacket and a red cap, a slightly older teen in red, black, and white Kanto attire, a boy in a black jacket and an Ultra Ball cap, and one last one in a yellow jacket and with spiky rust-colored hair.
"What is this, a party? All of you can leave, except Brennan. This doesn't concern all of you" Omega spat.
"If you guys are with Team Rocket/Galactic/Cipher it does" the new trainers yelled simultaneously.
Omega was about to yell something to the group again when new voices were heard. "They're right, I'm afraid. We have a history with them" it said.
On new floating platforms, down came two men with blue hair, one in a Team Rocket Elite uniform, the other in black robes. A third person also came down, a woman with red hair, who Ash immediately identified as Mars of Team Galactic.
The one in the Rocket uniform scanned the group, lingering on two in particular. He smirked and the said "well, if it isn't Red and Gold. I was wondering if I would ever see you brats again."
Red clenched his fists while Gold stared right back and countered, "it's Archer, right. Sorry if I'm wrong, you guys were all so weak, you kinda blend together."
Archer looked furious for a moment, then smirked. He then pulled a purple Pokeball from his pocket and stared at the two of them. "Tell me, does this belong in the hands of a weakling?"
Archer tossed his Master Ball into the air, releasing a familiar, cold, purple humanoid Pokemon.
Ash, Red, and Gold all gasped as they recognised the Pokemon. "Mewtwo" the group said simultaneously.
The rest of the executives smirked an each pulled out a Master Ball of their own. In a flash, the field grew very small as a Dialga, Palkia, and darkened colored Lucia with red eyes appeared on the field.
"What, you have more!" Red spoke for the first time. He started looking around with unease at the group of Legendary Pokemon.
Archer laughed. "Yes, and that is not all. As I'm sure at least Brennan has figured out, we have Kyogre waiting in the harbor, and Ghetsis has another Kyurem awaiting aboard the Plasma Frigate."
"Another Kyurem?" White cried outout. The numbers of Legendary Pokemon they controlled had become astounding.
"Hehehe, hahaha, HAHAHA" the Sinnoh boy began to laugh.
"What's amusing you so much, Diamond?" Mars asked irritability.
"Nothing, just that maybe we can have an even fight now" he responded with a smirk.
"What do you mean, 'evenly?' We have you outclassed" Mars said.
"You forget just who you have in this stadium. Between all of us, we have taken you all down at least once, and you forget just what we have accomplished, and what Pokemon we have befriended."
Diamond turned to the rest of the group as smiles began to creep onto their faces. Ash gained a smile too as he realised that each trainer around him was as battle crazy as he was.
Each trainer took a Pokeball out of his bag. Brennan then looked straight at Omega, and asked him "are you sure you still want Rayquaza? This is your last chance!"
"Foolish child, you still have no idea what you are up against, do you?" Omega asked Brennan.
His only response was quite a smirk as he ach trainer tossed a Pokeball into the air.
"Mewtwo!"
"Ho-oh!"
"Rayquaza!"
"Giratina!"
"Zekrom!"
"Lugia!"
Ash looked around in awe as each trainer surrounding him called forth their own Legendary Pokemon. He then felt slightly embarrassed as he realized he had none of his own.
Brennan seemed to pick up on this, as he turned to Ash and said "don't worry about what you can do, just help us out. I've heard of your exploits, and you are no pushover."
Ash smiled as he heard this. "Yeah, I can do this. Me and my Pokemon have fought almost every Legendary Pokemon known to exist, and we are still here to tell the tale" he thought. He reached to his belt and pulled out one of his strongest and most trusted partners.
"Charizard, I choose you!"
Chapter 3, good and done. I'm trying to get into the story fast without rushing it, while making sure everything still makes sense, so I'm sorry if it comes out weird. Next chapter should be great, as a fight for their lives begins. Stay tuned, and please review!
